The storm wasn't scheduled for another week! Rainbow dived as a lightning bolt almost hit her. There was a sudden shout from the side. "RAINB--!" Rainbow Dash turned to see a flash of light slam into a yellow pegasus. She watched as Ditzy spiralled towards the ground. There was nothing she could do. She slammed her back hooves into one of the smaller storm clouds. The storm was ferocious now. It was like some invisible force was going on a rampage. There was a sudden flash. Rainbow looked down to see three blurs dive out of Sugarcube Corner. Pegasi were being slammed out of the sky like flies. Nopony was going to die today. Rainbow suddenly sped upwards towards the eye of the storm. She was going to end this. Everyone stared upwards. What was she doing? Was she insane? Pinkie Pie looked upwards and her eyes widened as she saw what her friend was doing. Everypony stared at the sky out of their windows. Twilight and the other 3 mares joined Pinkie. "WHAT IS SHE DOING!?" Shouted Twilight. Pinkie Pie didn't speak. She just stared up at the sky watching her friend risk her life. Rainbow struggled against the now raging winds. Just when Rainbow's hooves had almost hit the cloud something hard slammed into her. She only thought one thing before she crashed into the ground. 'I tried.' Here lies Rainbow Dash The Element of Loyalty Loyal to the end She tried. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Authors Notes: Just a short chapter to introduce the story.
