Rainbow Factory Condemned

Chapter 27


The door closes behind Twilight. Rainbow Dash’s eyes immediately flicker open and she stands. She brushes a small bit of dust off of her shoulder and turns her back on the door. Her eyes focus upon the ground and she solemnly flies back up to the balcony and exits through the door she had come through. The remaining guards bodies slowly begin to fade telling you that the vision was indeed over. You hover down to the floor and head toward the opposite door. You open the door and proceed forward with caution. As you look around the room you see a door, directly opposite of you start to close, there was a keypad next to it. You rush over to the door and prevent it from closing. You take a second look around. There were no other doors in the room, just piles and piles of boxes with strange labels upon them.

You examine the keypad; it operated several bolt locks which would slide in and out-of-place to secure the door. If there was one door in this entire factory that Rainbow Dash couldn't break down, this was it. She probably has some sort of keycard for the door so you decide to break the keypad. You hold the door open with your front hooves and prepare to kick the keypad with your back. You strike the keypad with your back hooves and examine the damage you had done. The keypad was only slightly tilted to the side. You sigh annoyance and prepare to kick again. You hear a loud thud. You look out into the room you just came from. The door on top of the balcony had been thrown open to reveal an angry eyed Rainbow Dash.

You frantically begin hitting the side of the keypad repeatedly. Rainbow Dash leaps off the balcony and charges you. Another hit popped the keypad off of the wall, Rainbow Dash passed through the door you just came through. You grab the keypad, wires still attached, and pull it through the door. Rainbow was halfway across the room. You slam the door on the wires and hear several bolt locks being set into place and then, silence. You slump to the floor and release the breath you didn’t realize you were holding. Rainbow Dash had been mere inches from the door. A moment to rest at last… You allow your mind to wander away from the events occurring in the factory. How was your mother? She was probably worried sick that you hadn’t returned yet. What about your friends? Were they still waiting outside the factory’s doors, hoping to catch some sign that you were still alive?

Your world comes back into focus to the objects around you. An office desk lie in the middle of the room you had entered. A small chair rested on your end while three much larger ones dominated the other side. A small projector sat in the middle of the table, pointed at the nearby white wall. The projector sputtered to life but at first, only with sound. The Piano notes seemed to resonate through the entire room.
