	It was a beautiful summer day in Ponyville. The birds were chirping, the sun shone brightly and ponies were frolicking through the fields and town. Twilight Sparkle and her friends were in the meadow enjoying a nice picnic together. 
"Oh Twilight, this was such a glorious idea you had to have this outing." Rarity said with glee, "And on the most perfect day."
 "Thanks, Rarity." Twilight said happily. "I thought we all deserve a day to relax after what happened at the wedding last month."
"This was very kind of you, Twilight." Fluttershy squeaked. 
"Ah agree." Said AppleJack. "And ya made some of the tastiest treats this side of Ponyville!" 
"Silly, you made those treats, AppleJack!" Pinkie Pie said with a snort. 
AppleJack tilted her hat over her eyes. "Aw shucks, i guess i did, didn't I?" 
Everypony laughed and continued enjoying their wonderful outing, until...
"Uh-oh. Twitchy twitchy twitch..." Pinkie Pie murmured as her tail shuttered uncontrollably. 
"Oh no! Head for cover!" Rainbow Dash yelled as she bolted into the tree nearest them. 
"No,no, Rainbow. It's not gonna fall here." Pinkie Pie said looking around at the sky. 
Rainbow Dash breathed a sigh of relief. 
"But, then where's something going to fall, sugar-cube?" Applejack asked nervously. 
"I dunno, but i have a feeling it's not gonna be around here."
"Well then," Twilight said relieved. "Shall we continue or picnic?"
All the ponies shook their heads with delight and smiled happily. But a few minutes passed and Pinkie's pinkie sense acted up again. 
"bububububuububb" Pinkie Pie stuttered as she began to shake uncontrollably. 
"Oh no, it's a doozy!" Twilight yelled. 
"Oh no! not another do-o-o-oo-o-o-o-ozy!" Pinkie Pie said as she shook again. 
Just then, Rarity noticed something. "Look, there! Somethings falling!" 
Twilight squinted to see what it was. But it wasn't a what, it was a who! 
"That's a pony! And whoever it is, is falling fast!" 
Rainbow Dash fluttered her wings and took off. "Im on this! Everypony, follow me, and try to keep up!" She zoomed through the sky towards the falling pony. 
Twilight and the others ran after Rainbow Dash. Twilight looked too worried. 
"Is somethin' the matter, Twilight?" Applejack asked. 
Twilight looked back at her with fear in her eyes."Rainbow Dash isn't going to make it in time! i did the math and it's not good!"
"C'mon, Dash! You can't let this pony down!" Rainbow Dash said to herself. She straightened her body and began to go faster and faster; but she wasn't going to make it. The pony fell through the tree line of the Everfree forest. 
"Oh no! No! No!" Rainbow Dash yelled as she came to a halt! She flew back to the girls who were still far behind. 
"I didn't catch 'em!" Rainbow yelled in frustration. "AppleJack, run to the hospital and get a few doctors out here now!" 
Applejack nodded, "I'm on it, gals! I'll be back lickety split!" She took off toward town and the rest of the ponies headed for the woods. 
Rainbow Dash flew high above. "Fluttershy, with me. We'll look for the hole that pony made from above. We'll come back and tell where he is. Sound good?" 
"Ok, we'll be waiting." Twilight said. "And hurry. If he lived, he might not have a lot of time!" 
Rainbow Dash nodded. "We'll be quick. C'mon Fluttershy!" 
"Oh dear, oh dear!" Fluttershy cooed as she flew after Rainbow. 
Five minutes passed as the searched continued. The girls waited patiently for Rainbow's and Fluttershy's return. 
Rainbow Dash flew back. "We found it! I'll guide you in. Fluttershy flew down to see how that ponies doing." 
Twilight became a little less nervous. "Great, lets hope they're Ok!"
Fluttershy knelt down next to the pony. He was a light green colt, a Pegasus. "Oh dear, you poor, poor.... Pegasus? But.. why didn't you just use your wings?" She asked in astonishment. 
She knelt closer to the colt. His sudden coughing sent her into the air in terror, but she quickly returned to his side. 
She looked through the woods to see if anypony was on the way. "Oh please hurry girls! I don't know how long he'll last." 	She looked back at him. his brown eyes staring into hers. "Oh, stay still! You were in a terrible fall. I don't know what you broke. Can you please stay still for me?" 
He looked at her, and said three simple words. "Who... am...I" And with that he drifted back into unconsciousness. 
"Oh no! Please girls, hurry!" Fluttershy said with worry. 
 The ponies came running through the woods and Pegasi doctors flew into the hole with Rainbow Dash leading them.
"Don't worry, Fluttershy! We're here!" Rainbow Dash said as she swooped to her friends side.
 Fluttershy stared at them then back to the colt, "Oh, i just hope you're not too late." Fluttershy said, visibly shaking.
"Is he ok? Did he wake up at all?" Twilight asked. 
Fluttershy stared at her with clouded eyes. "Yes, and he said, "Who am i?" i.. i don't understand." 
"We'll find out soon enough, sugar cube." Applejack said as she put her hoof on Fluttershy's shoulder as a reassuring gesture. 
"Oh, i just hope you're right." Fluttershy said as she stared back at the barely living pony.  

Everything was coming back. Sound, smell, but it was all unfamiliar. He had no idea what was going on. 
He tried to open his eyes. They sluggishly responded. He saw doctors and other patients around the room, but he couldn't make the connection to what they were. He didn't recognize anything. 
Nothing made sense. not even him. How can anyone not know who they were? He was scared. He had to get out of here. 
He shot up from the bed. He felt the pain hit him on every inch of his body, but he didn't care. He tried to run but as his hooves hit the floor, he fell; hard. 
A nurse noticed and tried to get him back into bed. "I need a doctor over here to help!" She yelled. 
He stood and looked at her and just yelled, "Who am I?" 
He then proceeded to run out of the room, He took in his scenery at a million miles an hour and tried to understand what was happening, but his brain couldn't make sense of any of it. 
He began to run down the hall when he noticed six others coming down it towards him, and he recognized one of them. The yellow one with wings. Yes, he'd seen her before, but he didn't know where. 
He ran to them. She was the only one he recognized and he needed her help. He suddenly remembered what she asked him. "I need you to stay still for me." He tumbled as his feet automaticly stopped causing him to tumble down the hall towards them, Stopping inches in front of their hooves
He looked imploringly at the yellow pony, "Please. Help me!" 
She shyly turned her head, blushed, and stared at him through her hair covered eyes. Doctors and nurses grabbed him, tying him to a stretcher and carried him back to his room   
"Jeeze," Rainbow Dash said, scratching her head. "What the hay was that all about?" 
Twilight looked just as confused. "I don't know, but he seemed to respond to Fluttershy." 
Rarity came up to Fluttershy and patted her shoulder. "Fluttershy, dear, didn't you say he woke up in the woods for a moment?" Rarity asked. 
Fluttershy, still blushing, said, "Um, yes he did. I guess, maybe he recognized me?" 
A Doctor came over to the ponies with an apologetic look on his face. "I'm so sorry about that, girls. are you alright?"
Twilight stepped forward. "We're fine. Don't worry. What about him?" She asked looking down the hall at the pony being carried off. "Is he alright?"
The Doctor explained everything to them. "He seems to be suffering from amnesia. He doesn't know who he is or what anything is for that matter."
 Rainbow tilted her head and looked at the doctor. "So do YOU know who he is? Did you figure it out with his cutie mark?" 
The doctor looked back at her and now he looked puzzled. "See, thats the thing. He doesn't have one." 
The girls all looked more puzzled than him. 
"What?" they all said in unison. 
Twilight chimed in what they were all undoubtably thinking. "But how could a pony that old NOT have a cutie mark? I've never heard anything like it." 
The doctor shook his head."Neither have we. But what we need to do now is associate him with familiar things, try to ease his memories back out. Since he is a pegasus, the most likely place to start would be Cloudsdale. When he's up to it, that is." The doctor said looking at Rainbow Dash, then to Fluttershy, "Why don't you two take him there." 
Rainbow Dash stared down the hall into the room where he was being kept. "Yeah, sure. Maybe we'll find somepony there who recognizes him." 
The doctor smiled. "That would be perfect. We'll let you all know when he's up to it." The ponies left the hospital without another word. Fluttershy took one last look down the hall at the young colt who was probably more scared than she had ever been in her life. And that thought scared her.
