Rainbow Dash stood up, but her legs shook and she fell back down. Then she noticed the pain from her wings were gone. That's why I can't stand up I'm in a hospital bed. The doctors must have fixed me up and from that explosion from Twilight's house. Rainbow Dash thought. She opened her eyes again, and noticed she was covered with a white cover.
"Hey, are you OK?" A voice asked.
”Um yeah the doctors here are great." Rainbow Dash replied. "You're in the dark, who are you?" The pony had a huge smile when she came out of the darkness. "Pinkie pie you’re here!"
"Yeah I did! I made you some cupcakes!" Pinkie pie exclaimed.
She held up a plate of cupcakes that were nicely decorated by her. Rainbow Dash licked her lips and took one from the pile. These look good! I know they're good if Pinkie made them! She thought happily.
"Why don't you use your horn?" Pinkie pie asked.
"Very funny Pinkie," Rainbow Dash chuckled.
"Well I've got to get these cupcakes to the other patients. You know how they like their cupcakes! Oh and see you at the picnic tomorrow!" Pinkie responded while walking out of the room.
Something puzzled Rainbow Dash. When Pinkie had asked her why she didn't use her horn, she sounded really serious. Pinkie wasn't joking when she said that. Rainbow Dash thought. I wonder what happened.
She noticed that her hoof was different for the first time. Instead of being a light blue she was a purple color. Rainbow Dash took her other hoof (which was the same purple color) and touched her hooves together. Then she pinched herself with them.
"Ouch!" She shouted. "This definitely isn't a dream."
Rainbow Dash stood up and went up to a mirror in the room. She looked in the mirror and Twilight Sparkle stared back at her. Pinkie must have put a joke mirror in here. She loves a good prank as much as I do.Rainbow Dash thought trying to be positive. She put her hoof up to the mirror and realized that this wasn't a prank. She had to hold back a scream by shoving her hoof in her mouth. Or should we say Twilight's hoof.
Rainbow Dash decided to see where her body was. She walked down the hall of the hospital looking for a nurse. Rainbow Dash found one and walker up to her.
"Excuse me, do you know where Twi...Uh I mean Rainbow Dash's room is?" She asked nervously.
"Yes go down the hall and take a left." The nurse responded pointing a hoof down the hall.
Rainbow Dash followed the nurse's instructions and walked to the room. When she walked in she saw herself sleeping in a bed (or Twilight in Rainbow Dash's body). Rainbow Dash went up to Twilight Sparkle and shook her awake.
"Ugh...What is it now?" Twilight moaned tiredly.
Twilight opened her eyes, and noticed her own body standing over her. Twilight got out of the bed showing no concern. She walked up to a mirror and noticed she was Rainbow Dash.
"Is this what that stupid spell was supposed to do?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"No, something went wrong."
"Well can't we fix it."
"I don't know how!"
Rainbow Dash wanted to punch Twilight in the face, but she'd be punching herself. So she took her hoof and punched her (Twilight's) face.
"What are you trying to do to my body?!" Twilight Sparkle demanded.
"Getting payback for this mess you got us into!" Rainbow Dash spat back.
"What I did? You're the one who disrupted my work!"
"Arguing with you is just like arguing with Rarity!"
“I’m nothing like that stuck up snob!"
"You're both annoying and hard to work with!"
"You want payback?! I'll give you payback!"
Rainbow Dash didn't know what to say after that last sentence Twilight uttered. Questions buzzed through her head like: What could be the worst she could do? And like: Will she do anything to me? Twilight looked at Rainbow Dash, her devilish smirk started to frighten her a little.
"So, we’re living each other’s lives until we find a cure." Rainbow Dash reminded.
"Yes, we should leave this hospital. It's getting late and I....I mean you have to feed Spike." Twilight responded.
They soon signed out and left without another word. On the way to Twilight's house Rainbow Dash saw Twilight flying with her wings.
"Darn it Twilight, why couldn't your parents have been pegasi?" She muttered with anger in her voice.
When Rainbow Dash got inside Twilight's house Spike was eating a bucket of ice cream. He looked up to see her and imminently threw the bucket. Ice cream flew out of the bucket onto the floor.
"Oh really Spike really?!" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Uh I'm sorry Twilight. I'll clean it up for you." Spike replied nervously.
Rainbow Dash walked up to Spike. "No that's not what I meant at all Spike." Spike was starting to sweat. Oh no I'm really in for it now! He thought. "Spike, you can't have ice cream without toppings!"
"What?" Spike asked surprised. "Aren't you angry to see me up at ten o, clock at night eating ice cream?"
"Spike, I'd be angry if you didn't share!" Rainbow Dash replied smiling.
Spike handed her a bucket of ice cream and he smiled. They ate so much they soon became drunk with sugar. At least one person reading this has done that in their life.
"Yum...yum...yum...Ice cream goes down my throat." Rainbow Dash sang without realizing.
"Sounds....Good to me throats and ice cream. Hey....Twilight...are you sure this.....Is OK?" Spike responded.
"I'm not Twilight! I'm Rainbow....Dash.....A cool flash spell made us..Switch bodies." She laughed in return.
"Huh? You and...Twilight did what now?" Spike asked sounding serious.
