//------------------------------// // Try again tomorrow. // Story: The missing Rainbow.. // by Arial_Dreemmurr //------------------------------// Twilight saw Pinkie Pie and Apple Jack got back first. "Pinkie, Apple Jack! How did it go? Anything?" They shuck their head "Nope.. No one heard from her or seen her after the festival.." Apple Jack said disapointed. "...And you...?" Pinkie Pie quietly asked. Twilight had a disapointed look and shuck her head. "Also nothing.. There was one pony there and he was getting rid of all the Rainbow Dash stuff there. He said they were moving on to something else. They also haven't seen her after the festival." Pinkie Pie was starting to panic a little but tried to keep it cool. "W-Well maybe Fluttershy and Rarity found something…" Apple Jack got worried now too but stayed positive. "Let's just hope so.." Twilight remembered the colour change of the town. "Also did you notice the colours of the town? It's all kinda grey.." They looked around and noticed it "Oh.. I didn't notice.. That is weird.." "Will it stay that way? It's pretty depressing to look at." Pinkie Pie said while looking at the former colourfull flowers. "Maybe it's normal here.." Twilight said already thinking of posible explanations. Fluttershy and Rarity came now too. "Fluttershy, Rarity! How did it go?" Twilight asked hoping for a positive answer. "Not so good.." Fluttershy said disapointed with her head down. Rarity continued. "Yea.. No one saw or heard from her after the festival.. And no one knows where she is now.." Fluttershy also got her attention to the colours of the town. "Also the colours disapeared.. Is that normal..?" Twilight shrugged. "I noticed that too and I don't know if it is." "But if she's not here where do we look now?" Apple Jack said starting to lose hope. "We can ask Jasper if there are other towns or places that she could be. But it's getting late.. It's better if we stay here and continue tomorrow.." Twilight explained. "Is there a hotel here or something?" Rarity asked hoping there was one and hopefully high quality. "We saw a huge building. When we went in a worker pony said it was a hotel." Apple Jack said and pointed at a huge building with multiple floors. Twilight saw it and smiled. "Good. Let's stay there and continue tomorrow. I'm sure we'll have better luck then. There are not a lot of places she could be." "Y-Yea.. Let's do that.." Pinkie Pie said trying her best to keep a smile. They walked to the hotel and got a room. It was pretty dusty and it looked like it hasn't been used in a long time. "We need to stay here?" Rarity said looking around the dusty room. Apple Jack just rolled her eyes and answered her question. "It's this or the streets. Just be happy we actually got something." Rarity just sighed and walked furter into the room. "Alright.. As long as there aren't bugs or something.." "Hey! Those are pretty nice you know?" Fluttershy said offended. Rarity realized what she said and apologized. "Sorry.." Fluttershy quietly laughed a little "Rarity I was just joking. If you don't want them you wont get them." Rarity sighed in relief and smiled "Thx." Pinkie Pie hopped on the bed and some dust flew out. "It's not the worst in the world. We could have gotten worse." "That's true. Now let's see the beds so we can go sleep." Twilight walked to a bed too and quickly got rid of the dust before getting in. The others also got one and got comfy. It wasn't the best but most of them were able to fall asleep. But Pinkie Pie couldn't sleep thinking about where Rainbow Dash could be and what happened to her. She was looking out the window when she saw a rainbow coming from Jasper's house. It came from a pipe and was shot into the sky. Pinkie Pie quickly woke everyone up and they all looked and saw the rainbow turn the whole town in colour again. It looked just like when they arrived. "It came from Jasper's house! Out of some weird pipe!" Pinkie Pie said pointing at the pipe by Jasper's house. Twilight thought about it and spoke. "Maybe we can ask him about it in the morning." "I don't know if you noticed but it looked a bit like a rainboom." Apple Jack said remembering the shape of it. "Or it's just a rainbow with the same shape." Rarity said with a bit of sarcasm. Apple Jack just ignored her comment. Fluttershy yawned and walked back to her bed. "I'm going back to bed. See you guys in the morning." The others went back in their beds too and they were all able to get some more sleep.
