Alfred leads Twilight and her friends into a hallway in the manor toward a room with a desk, a fireplace and with shelves of books.
"Woh," They all said.
"This is amazing," Rarity said.
"This is where Master Bruce does his study's," Alfred said.
They all look around the room "give me a moment" He said.
Alfred leaves the room and meets Bruce in the next room," are you sure about this master Bruce, you letting equines in stay in the manor"? Alfred asked.
"Positive, they'll need someplace to stay until they find a way home, they can stay as long as they need to," Bruce said.
"I trust you, Bruce," Alfred said.
"Now Alfred, shall we meet our guests," Bruce asked.
They go into the study, everypony is looking at different parts of the room, Rarity liked how fancy everything was in the room and everypony else just enjoyed it.
"Hello Everyone!" Bruce said. Everypony looked at him, "I would love to welcome you, Wayne Manor, my name is Bruce Wayne, Alfred will be leading you to your rooms and then you can enjoy the rest of the evening, thank you" He said.
Alfred leads everyone to their rooms, that evening everyone is gathered at the table salad, mashed potatoes and corn with Alfred cooking the rest of the meal.
"Thank you for letting us stay it was very kind of you," Fluttershy said.
"Your welcome" Bruce said.
"Whats Gotham like?" Twilight asked.
"Well the most of city is corrupted with gangs and muggers and even the government is corrupt as with crime bosses controlling the underworld," Bruce said.
"Oh," Twilight said.
"I wouldn't recommend you go in the city," He said.
"We've faced bigger things compared muggers and gangs," Rainbow said.
"think if someone who hasn't seen anything like you before and they saw you, what do you think they would do to you," Starlight said.
"It'll be safer if you all stayed in the manor ok," Bruce said.
Everypony nodded at the table except for rainbow, after everybody was finished dinner, they all go they're rooms Rainbow shuts her door.
"What's so bad about going into the city we've faced bigger thing muggers and gangs," Rainbow said. She decides to disobey Bruce's request and go into the city.
She opens her window "I'll just go out for a little while then come back" she said. She takes a flight out the window and into the city.
Rainbow fly's into the city looking down at into the city while flying around buildings, she lands on the ground near an alleyway, a few thugs see her and go toward "what's a little pony doing outside alone" Thug #1 said.
"you're not frightening me," Rainbow said.
"Did that thing just talk" Thug #3 said.
"Yo, we could make lots of money off this thing," Thug #5 said.
"you're right," Thug #1 said.
All the thugs look at each other, they start walking toward Rainbow trying to gang up on her but Rainbow flew up a few inches off the ground and kicks one of the thugs in the jaw hitting him onto the ground. One of the thugs grabbed her, Rainbow pushes him into the wall, she turns around punching him in the face while keeping the others at bay, soon the thug lets go of her and she hits him one more time knocking him out.
Rainbow sees another thug coming at her, she dodges it and kicks him into the wall with all her strength, the thug hit the wall groaning in pain, rainbow hits him again knocking him out, two thug charge at her and rainbow grabs both of them banging their heads together instantly knocking them out.
There was the last one left he got up to his feet and threw a punch at Rainbow and she blocks it, Rainbow hits his face with wing blinding him for a just enough for Rainbow to kick him into the light pole outside street, knocking him out groaning.
Rainbow goes through the alleyway exhausted walking the path, she gets hit with gas that knocks her out unconscious and out of the shadows comes Scarecrow with Butch "Take her to the truck" he said. Butch picks up Rainbow and puts her in the truck and drives off leaving only tracks behind.

In Canterlot castle Celestia explains what happened to Twilight to him, he waited for her to be done before he could ask questions. Celestia had finished talking and Shining started asking questions "can't you track them with a spell," Shining asked.
"Yes, but I'll need to concentrate" Celestia's horn glowed and then she was thrown against the wall, "Princess!" Shining armour runs toward the Princess " are you ok" Shining asked.
"I'll be fine, thank you," Celestia said.
"Did you find out where they are?" He asked.
"Yes and no I'm afraid," she said.
"What do you mean?" Shining asked.
"What I know is that they're in another universe, but I'm not sure where yet" Celestia explained.
"I hope my sister and her friends are safe" Shining said.
Celestia puts a hoof on Shinings shoulder "where ever they are, they are going to be ok" Celestia said reassuring him.
"I hope your right" Shining said.
Gotham
"Hello, hello, wakey, wakey," a voice said. Rainbow opens her eyes slowly groaning she put a hoof on her head "what happened" she said. gigging "well, you did knockout gas and felt flat on your knoken" the voice said.
Rainbow felt something touch her forehead when the voice said knoken, Rainbow opened her eyes to see man with ginger hair and with a smile that was frozen place and his face looked like a mask but it wasn't at the sametime
"Woah" Rainbow said, jumping back now noticing that she's in a chair. "Where am I!" Rainbow asked.
"Well,you could called it a hideout" he said.
"Who are you?" She asked. "Oh sorry introductions, hi I'm Jerome" Jerome said.
"Now the question I wanted ask was what are you? After all you and 6 others fell from the sky " Jerome said. Jerome sits down in the chair infront of her.
"I'm a Pegasai" Rainbow said.
"Now, how did you get here?" And if you don't well" Jerome pulls a knife out "things will get messy" Jerome said.
Rainbow hesitated before starting "well my friend Twilight was trying an anicient teleportation spell, that she said could take us anywhere" Rainbow explained.
"Get to the point" Jerome said.
"Well she wanted to bring us with her to make sure if anything happened we would be there to protect her, but in long story short the spell messed up and now we're here" Rainbow said.
Jerome was paying attention to the pony but also thinking about something "we're you even paying attention" The Blue Pegasus said.
"Sorry, just thinking of Tomorrow's show" Jerome said.
"What are you planning" Rainbow said.
Jerome moves closer to Rainbow, Rainbow moves back in the space she has in the chair she's tied too. "Oh you'll see soon, it's a blast" Jerome said. Before laughing manically and with rainbow thinking what had she gotten herself into.
Wayne Manor
In Wayne manor everypony is fast asleep except for Fluttershy who can't seem to fall asleep. She gets out of bed and leaves her room to refresh her mind.
Fluttershy starts pacing back and fourth in the hallway while reflecting on what has happened so far, so far they had falling out the sky, been taking to GCPD and now she and her friends are staying in a rich kid's house.
She gets out of her train of thought infront of Rainbow Dash's Room. There's crack in the door where Fluttershy notices that the window is open. She opens the door to find Rainbow gone, after this Fluttershy trotted towards Twilights room and goes in.
She try's to softly shake Twilight, it doesn't work so she adds a little force to it and Twilight wakes up from her slumber.
"What is it Fluttershy" she said.
"It's Rainbow Dash, she's gone" Fluttershy said.
Twilight hearing this was like a wake up call, Twilight lifts her head off the pillow quickly "what!" Twilight said.
Fluttershy nodds "I found her room empty and her window was opened" Flutters said.
"Uh rainbow dash, Bruce told us to not leave to the manor" Twi said. Twilight got out of bed heading to her friends rooms on by one.
The rest of her friends come out of they're rooms "Twilight, I hope you have a good reason for waking us from out slumber" Rarity said.
"Rainbow Dash is gone, she left through her window" Twilight explained.
"How long ago?" Applejack asked.
"I think she left after dinner" Twilight said.
"But Bruce told us that we couldn't leave the manor" Rarity said.
"What should we do?" Pinkie asked.
Twilight thought for a moment, as if a light bulb had been turned on a smile appeared on Twilight's face "girls I have a idea" she said.
GCPD
In the precinct Jim is sitting in his desk as captain of the GCPD, almost everyone has left the building, Jim walks and opens the door of the captains office and leaves it shutting the door to get some coffee.
After he gets his coffee he goes upstairs and looks out the window, Jim hears a strange sound to his right and turns his head to find Twilight.
"Good evening Captain" Twilight said.
"Hello Twilight" Jim said. He takes a sip of his coffee "what are you doing here".
"Rainbow Dash is gone" she said.
"What happened" Jim asked.
"Bruce told us to not leave the manor and Rainbow kind of didn't come to the liking of that, so we think after dinner she opened her window and left" Twilight explained.
"Jim, I need your help searching for Rainbow" Twilight said.
For a few seconds the room was slient until James broke the slience, " Ok, Twilight I'll help you find your friend" He said.
"Ok but where do we look?" She asked. Jim walks down the stairs "she went into the city, then we look around the city as much as we can" he replied.
Jim and Twilight go down to the parking lot, James unlocks his car and him and Twilight begin the search for Rainbow.
Jerome's "Hideout"
Jerome has left Rainbow Dash into another room where all the other villains are, "so what do with her?" Oswalt asked.
"Oh I'll think about it, but in the meantime you, freeze stand guard I don't any weasels ruining my fun" Jerome said.
Firefly and Freeze stand guard at the door doing as Jerome told them.
"now what do we do" Crane asked.
"Freeze and Jervis will get the mayor, Ark Misson Mygregor, the commissioner and two others, they've been invited to front row seats to the main event and you Jonathan will take his place guarding our guest" Jerome said.
"Freeze" He said.
Freeze walks from his post toward jerome "you and Jervis have a job to do" Jerome said.
jervis leaves and Freeze follows while Crane walks to where freeze was before. "come now oswalt, we have a job to do" he said.
James and Twilight have been driving through the city for a 15 minutes and haven't seen a sign of Rainbow Dash. "Twilight I don't think we'll find her tonight, maybe Tommorow we'll search more thoroughly Tommorow" Jim said.
Twilight sighs "I guess your right" She said. Jim starts driving back to the manor when something checks Twilight's eye "Jim stop the car" Twi said.
"What is it?" Jim asked.
Twilight points to the thugs on the ground only shown by the street light, Jim and Twilight get out of the car and go to the thugs. Jim turns on his flashlight as he investages the scene, he checks to see if the thugs are alive by checking they're pulse, he puts his finger on the vein and sees that there out cold and among the 5 thugs he finds a blue feather.
Jim shows the feather to Twilight "that's her's, she was here" She said.
"Those thugs are out cold, they've been out for couple of hours" Jim said.
"Lets continue searching there must be a clue of where she went after this" Twilight said.
Jim and Twilight go down the alleyway hoping to find a clue or something that might tell them the location of where Rainbow was and that answer game a few seconds later when James stops in his tracks.
"What is it" Twilight asked.
"Tire Tracks" Jim said.
"These tracks seems lead to be somewhere, if we follow them we might find Rainbow Dash" Twilight said.
Jim and Twilight head back to the car and start the engine and they drive toward the street the tracks start on the street and they start to follow the tracks to hoping it leads to Rainbow.
The tire tracks lead them to a house Jim had seen before. It was Penguins House, the tire tracks went through the gate and stopped right at the house. Jim parks outside the gate and gets out of his car with Twilight following, they reach the front of the house trying to not make any sound James slowly tries turning the door knob.
He finds the door open, he leads Twilight into the home "do you think Rainbow is here" Twilight whispers.
"She might be" Jim whrispered.
They find themselves next to stairs and the living room, Jim signals Twilight to go upstairs and he goes in the living room and hears a voice he recognizes.
"Tommorow, the city will be turned into a madhouse but first we must wait for Jervis and Freeze to comeback" Jerome said.
"So what's the plan?" Oswald asked.
"Oh let's just say we're going to blow some minds" Jerome said smiling manically.
Jim pulls his gun up and enters the room Jerome is the first to notice him.
"Jimbo, it's good to see ya" He said.
"What did you do to the cyan pony?" Jim asked.
"Oh did nothing to do her, at least not yet, I have plans for her for the main event" Jerome said.
Then Jerome pulls out a shotgun and Oswalt ducks for cover and Jim hides behind cover as Jerome takes a shot from the gun.
Meanwhile upstairs Firefly stands at the door and Crane is not to be seen, Twilight makes her move using her magic to try to take fireflys flamethrower from her hands, but she hangs on and holds on with all she's got. Twilight let's go of the gun and Firefly falls backward hitting the wall and Twilight using sleeping spell puts firefly to sleep.
Twilight opens the door and sees Rainbow Dash she runs toward Rainbow and Scarecrow gases her with fear toxin.
"Twilight!" Rainbow yelled.
Twilight turns at Rainbow to see her dying on floor, she rushs toward the dying Rainbow crying "you shouldn't have brought me here, if you didn't I would be still alive" the dying Rainbow said.
Then Rainbow closes her eyes and dies twilight holding the corpse of her friend crying.
Back to reality
"Twilight" Rainbow said.
"She can't hear you, right now your friend is in a living nightmare" Crane said.
Rainbow tries to get out of her restrains and get Twilight back to her senses back, but they won't budge.
"Now you have to watch your friend succumb to fear" Scarecrow said.
"Twilight please wake up, everything you see right now is not real it's your mind showing you your fears because of the toxin" Rainbow shouts.
Twilight still crying remembered what the dying rainbow dash said before dying "you shouldn't have brought me here, if you didn't I would be still alive" Twilight reliesd "why would she say that to me she's my friend she would never say that" Twilight then sees the corpse fade away and almost waking up from a dream she woke up from the toxin.
"How is that possible" Scarecrow said.
"Me and Rainbow have a special bond that can never be broken, I knew she wouldn't say the things she said in the dream this is the power of friendship" Twilight said.
Scarecrow tries to attack Twilight but she evades it and goes to Rainbow and starts to untie the restrains, Scarecrow starts another attack and Twilight uses her magic to defend herself, as Rainbows restrains were untied just enough where she could get out and she started by flying into scarecrow, she kicked scarecrow to the ground and twilight knocked him out with a spell.
"Thanks Twilight, I'm sorry for going out I should listened to Bruce" Rainbow said.
"Save your sorrys for later but right now Jim might need our help" Twilight said.
Back downstairs Jim has gotten a few shots out none has hit Jerome, Jerome fired two more shots before he was out
"Oh, poop" he said. but Jerome notices a truck pulling in the driveway and knows it's Jervis and freeze.
"Sorry Jim we have to go our ride is here" Jerome starts running toward the door and penguin follows Jim fires a shots and it almost hits Jerome but misses and hits the door.
"Jim are you ok we heard shots" Twilight said.
"Yep I'm fine, good thing we found what we came for" Jim said.
"Good I just told the others that we found rainbow" She said.
"How?" Jim asked.
"You could call it a telepathy spell, before I left I connected my friends and mines heads so for 3 hours we can telepathically talk to each other" Twilight said.
"Now it's time to take you girls back to the manor, you'll have a lot of explaining to do with Bruce" Jim said.
They left the house and starting they're journey back to the manor.
Now it begins.
