The First Pony to Time Travel Without a Spell

by Razor Blade the Unicron


Unspeakable Memories

Rainbow Dash flew joyfully through the air, making twists and turns as she flew. She wasn't doing anything in particular, just flying around and having fun.
"Nice going, Klutzershy!" came a mocking voice from below, "They ought ta ground you permanently!"
"Ha!" came another voice, "My baby brother can fly better than you!"
"Please..." came Fluttershy's voice, and it sounded like she was going to cry, "Stop it..."
Rainbow quickly flew down towards the voice to see two bullies making fun of Fluttershy.
"Leave her alone!" yelled Rainbow, landing in front of her.
"Ooh, what are you gonna do, Rainbow Crash?" asked the first bully.
"Keep making fun of her and find out!"
"You think you're such a big shot?" asked the second bully, "Why don't you prove it?"
"Whaddya have in mind?"

...

Rainbow smirked as she looked at the two bullies next to her. They thought that she wouldn't beat them in this race? As if!
"You're going down!" taunted one of them.
"In history, maybe!" retorted Rainbow, shifting to her ready stance.
The many fillies watching cheered loudly as Fluttershy raised the checkered flag into the air. Rainbow took in a quick breath as she stared down the racetrack.
Alright Rainbow, you can do this! Just need to win this race! she thought, Don't worry, Flutters! I'll defend your honor!
Fluttershy lowered the flag, and Rainbow took off as fast as possible. She quickly swirled around corner after corner, even doing an aileron roll at one point. She heard a loud smash, and glanced behind to see that one of the bullies had crashed.
I actually feel a bit bad for him... Well, at least the race is easier now!
Rainbow smiled as she flew through the clear sky, before being knocked to the side by the other bully.
"Later, Rainbow Crash!" he taunted, flying down towards the next ring.
"Hey!" yelled Rainbow angrily.
She quickly regained control, and also started to fly down towards the ring. Rainbow noticed that she had begun to gain speed, and felt her eyes begin to sting. She managed to keep her eyes open when suddenly a blue light surrounded her and kept her in place.
"Hey, what gives?" asked Rainbow as the other bully continued flying on.
Rainbow glanced around, and saw what looked like a purple alicorn carrying a purple baby dragon and a pink unicorn floating in the air with a blue light around her.
What?!? thought Rainbow, just as the alicorn, dragon, and unicorn disappeared, and Rainbow continued flying.
"Whoa!" yelled Rainbow as she went zooming down towards the ring she had been going towards earlier, "Pull up, pull up!"
Rainbow pulled up as soon as she hit the ring, and went zooming up towards the finish line. She flew past the bully so fast, that he flew completely out of control, and sailed off into the distance. Rainbow flew right through the finish line, and heard ponies cheering all around her.
"Woo-hoo!" yelled Rainbow as she soared over Cloudstale, "This is so awesome!"
Rainbow reached the highest point the Cloudstale, and then started heading back down to create a huge rainbow arch above the entire city. She didn't notice that she was beginning accelerate faster and faster, with the blue light still surrounding her.
"YEAH!"
Rainbow suddenly found herself going at double the speed of how fast she had been going earlier. Four times faster. Eight times faster!
"I can't stop!" yelled Rainbow, as she flew straight through the air, as opposed to flying downward, "Somepony help!"
Everything seemed to explode into white numbers and letters in a light blue world.
"Huh? Where am I?"
Lights of pink and green flashed around Rainbow, and the numbers and letters began to spin. Rainbow blinked as everything came near her, and then everything turned dark.


Rainbow gasped, and she sat up quickly from her bed. Her eyes stopped glowing white, and her wings stopped glowing red.
What was that? she thought, putting a hoof to her head, Was that... A dream?
Rainbow flew over to her desk and grabbed a quill and parchment with her magic. As soon as she put the quill down on the parchment, a rainbow of sparks came flying out in every direction, causing her to drop the quill.
What was that dream about? Why can I suddenly not remember?
"Stupid magic!" groaned Rainbow, "Now I can't even remember what I just dreamed about or even write it down!"
My pegasus magic is stronger than any of the others. Wait, now why I think that? Maybe... If I'm flying I'll be able to overcome the other types of magic in me!
Rainbow quickly flew out the window (which she still hadn't figured out how to close) and soared through the sky.
"When I was a filly-" she whispered before being cut off by pink and blue sparks, "Not again!"
What if I'm not going fast enough? But how fast would I need to go? And I can't just fly fast everywhere, that's not safe for others.
Rainbow sighed and landed on a lone cloud in the sky. She looked up towards the moon and the stars, and smiled.
Luna's night is so beautiful. The stars are amazing. Heh, that bunch looks like a lightning bolt.
She stayed on the cloud for a little bit longer, before flying back into her house. Rainbow laid back down in her bed and tried to fall asleep, again.
I'll figure all of this out later. Especially all this magic in me. I'll figure out everything that's happening.
