The Inferno Rises

Rainbow Dash woke up, relaxed and ready for work. “Good morning, Flux!” Dash said happily smiling at the camera that moved to see Dash.

Then the table started rising and adjusting itself to a slanted position. “Inferno is online!” said one the scientists. Right before Dash went into the virtual reality she thought she heard Flux say “Good bye, Rainbow Dash”. Then Dash loses all thought and she gets in. The Inferno has started…
