//------------------------------// // The Doomtain // Story: The lost Cutiemark // by Rain Dance //------------------------------// The Doomtain - Part 3 As the 9 ponies stand at the feet off the mountain resting before they continue, they start to feel some kind of shaking underneath their hooves. " What is this shakin' about? " Applejack wonders in modesty. " I don't have an idea. " Twillight say's. The shaking doesn't stop, they are starting to feel worried about this now. Rainbow Dash flies up in the skies to see if she can see anything from there. She comes down 5 Minutes later at an enormously high speed yelling " AVALANCHE!! ", The other 8 Ponies start to panic when Twillight stops to say. " No need to panic! Everypony run under that cliff roof over there! " The 8 ponies start to run off towards a Cliff Roof where they can protect themselves under. When all of the ponies are protected under the cliff roof, they think. " This is just the start of this journey? I wonder how the rest of it will be? " When the shaking stop they feel safe to get out in the sun. "Well, let's start this journey already!" Applejack say's. The 9 ponies start to climb up the Doomtain in hope for no more danger. But the danger comes faster then expected. After around 30 Minutes of climbing they hear a scream coming from above. Everypony looks up into the sky and everypony can't move out of fear when they look up. It's a Giant Spider hunting an Earth Pony. Everypony stands completely still. Except Rainbow Dash who starts flying as fast as she can towards the giant spider. With her full speed and her strong legs she manage in some way to kick the spider in the correct way which makes it fall down the Doomtain at an insane speed. When everypony actually understood what happened that the danger is gone they start walking towards this earth pony. When they get to this pony they ask her what her name is. She answer's "My name is Blue Clock. Thank you for saving me! I can't thank you enough" "It's totally normal for me to save lives all day long." Rainbow Dash brags. "Don't listen to her, she brags all the time" Twillight Say. "Yeah right she is" Blue Clock ironically puts in " But i have to get home now! We might see each other again sometime! " Blue Clock say. The 9 ponies continue their Journey up the mountain. Surprisingly enough, there isn't any more dangers on the way up to the top off the mountain. When they get to the top of the Doomtain there is a big field off Glimmerweed there. They start to pick as much Glimmerweed as they can. After 10 minutes of picking Glimmerweed they are all starting to feel tired and that they have to go to sleep. Everypony is now asleep except Rainbow Dash that is guarding. Rainbow Dash is going to guard for 2 Hours more then she is going to wake up Applejack for her to do her shift of the guarding. They put up 3 hours per pony a shift and guard each night. When Rainbow dash has been guarding for 2 hours, she starts to hear some kind of noise. Like something is struggling to break free from something. She can see a bush maybe 40 Feet away is moving repeatedly. When she walks towards it to look at what's inside struggling; everything blacks out as she faints. When everypony wakes up, Applejack finds it strange that she hasn't been waken up by Rainbow Dash. When everypony has woken up completely, they find Rainbow Dash laying on the ground fainted. When they find a small pool of water at the top off Doomtain they use little off this water to pour over Rainbow dash's head. When she wakes up she say " Who are you ponies? What am i doing here all dirty laying on the ground? " " Rainbow Dash, are you alright? " Applejack say's with a little bit off worriness in her voice. " My name is Rainbow Dash? Cool name! Well, it is pretty logic thinking of my mane! But why Dash? " " Cause you are extremely fast! I might say you are the fastest Pony in Equestria actually! " Twillight said. While the Ponies talk to each other Fluttershy sneaks up behind Rainbow Dash and poke her at her wings. " May i hit you in your head with this branch? " Fluttershy whispers as quite as normal. " Why would you do that? " Rainbow Dash ask in confussion. " It works in the movies to get ponies memories back! " Fluttershy say's a little louder this time. " Fluttershy i can just use my memory spell on her! " Twillight say with a little bit off bragging in her voice. Twillight's horn lights up as she lean it toward Rainbow Dash's head. Around one minute later Rainbow Dash starts to ask " What happened? I fell asleep during my guard pass! I am so sorry! " " No worries, RD! " Applejack say. " So, should we start packing and get going? " Twillight asks. The ponies start packing their stuff to get ready for heading off towards Witherspring. They finish packing around 10 minutes later. The 9 ponies start to walk down the mountain when suddenly a wagon comes falling down the sky! But with Twillight's fast reactions she is fast enough to put a protection bubble up. " What was that about!? " Twillight panicked. " I don't have an idea. At least my mane didn't get dirty. " Rarity say with a more calm voice. The 9 ponies continue their walk down the mountain, still shocked about what just happened. The 9 ponies are aware of that anything could happen! From what they have seen so far they are already very experienced of all dangers that lure in every corner. The 9 ponies walk down the mountain much faster then they did before. Still they are not trying to rush it if by any case somepony would trip on something they would still be able to slow it down and help the pony. 2 Hours later when they get down the mountain they see this never-ending field. Scootaloo complains " Are we going to walk through this never-ending field? " Twillight say's "Yes, i'm afraid so Scootaloo." The ponies walk and walk and walk for hours. Being exhausted they are not sure for how long they have walked anymore the soft ground is starting to feel like stone underneath their hooves and they know they will have to spend the endless night here.
