//------------------------------// // Chapter two // Story: Tinted Dawn - Work at the factory // by Tinted Dawn //------------------------------// The First failure that she saw was a Filly with a yellow coat and green and blue main and tail, being dragged away by two stallions to her unwisely death. Dash gave Dawn a personal tour of the upper factory earning a few confused glances from staff. But rainbow put them in their place if she noticed them staring at them. They stopped at the end of the walk way.”Everypony listen up!” Dash Yelled as every head turned to look. “I would like to introduce everypony to Tinted Dawn, my new successor. She is also my Long lost sister so she is to be treated with utmost respect or else!” Dash yelled as she slammed her hoof on the metal walk way. Dawn Blushed at the way her little sister had put her in rank; from the bottom to the top in no less than half an hour. She saw professor Ozone’s face in the crowd He was enraged. ”Now everypony back to work!” Dashed yelled As they walked back along the walk way they were approached by angry ozone. “How could you do that to me!” he screamed, causing dawn to step back and whimper. “I have demoted you; you can’t stop me from running a business, Janitor ozone” Dash and Dawn giggled at that last part. “You what!” ozone said in an Angry tone “If you keep screaming and talking like that to me and my sister, you will be handed over to the Pegasus devices. If you know what I mean,” Ozone stepped back at his boss’s threat. “Understood” Dash and Dawn started walking again heading to the Pegasus devices. To start the hard day’s work. Dawn had a very hard day. She saw the yellow filly again, this time hanging lifelessly above a Pegasus device. Dash Pointed at a lever that connected to the chains holding the filly. And with tears in her eyes Dawn flipped the lever. As the filly dropped into the machine she heard a soft “Why” from the filly. As the Filly was ground in the machine a soft yellow, Lime Green and sky blue flowed from the tubes into separate vats of colour. Dash Put her Wing over Dawn. “I know it hurts but you will get used to it,” After a few more Pegasus failures were ground, it was time to head home. Dash walked dawn back to her room to have her change out of the now blood stained jacket. After she had changed out they left from a secret door to the outside of the floating building. “This way, I don’t live too far from here,” Dash said with a scared-Loving tone in her voice. She was also still in the jacket “Now that you live with me you need to meet my “Friends”,” Dash Said with an annoyed tone in her voice After about 15 minutes of Flying they touched down on the large cloud home. “This is where you live!” Dawn said in awe “Yep, and now it’s also your home so make yourself at home,” Dash said with pride. Dash unlocked door to the house. They both zoomed inside Dawn quickly found the bed room and plopped down on the bed “So soft, I haven’t gotten a goodnight sleep for a year,” Dawn said Sinking into the bed made of clouds. “Hey Dawn” Dash yelled “Come over here!” “Okay” Dawn yelled back jumping out of the bed, flying to the room across from dash’s bedroom. In the Large room there was nothing but four walls a celling and a floor. “This is where you can sleep and have some of your belongings. Speaking of witch, I meant to ask you something.” “Ask Away little sis,” Dawn said “Did you have a family when you were marenapped?” Dawn Sighed “Yes I did, a colt friend and a little Colt named Rainbow Dawn. I named him after you, somehow he has your mane and tail and my coat. He is also about to take his flight test. So I was wondering if He fails that we can spare him somehow, like,” Dawn Paused to think about how to put the next sentence “he can calm down the fillies and colts so they don’t freak out or something.” Dawn said with desperation and a sad tone in her voice, a tear rolled down dawn’s cheek “I can have him be “Ground” The day after he arrives if he does fail. Then I can Take him to my house where you both can live and he will have to be home schooled. But that will be hard because you work for me…” Dawn Interrupted “We could hire someone from the factory to teach him here while we work” “But who would? First they would need to be Sane and actually have a degree in something. Someone like janitor ozone” Dawn and Dash started rolling around on the floor laughing when there was a knock on the door. “Quick hide!” Dash said urgently and practically jumped out of the lab coat She zoomed to the front door. Only to see Twilight standing there with a confused look on her face. “Hey Dash, What’s going on? I was sitting on a cloud reading my book when I saw you with another mare fly too your house and also I thought you were wearing a lab jacket with Blood red smears on it. What in Equestria were you doing in the weather factory?” Twilight asked in confusion “I can explain the mare” Dash said in defeat “Dawn you can come down now” Dash yelled upstairs. Soon Dawn came down stairs and stood beside Dash Putting her wing around her. “Dawn, Meet Twilcorn” Dash said with a little giggle “Dash, you know I hate it when you call me that. Anyway nice to meet you…” twilight said “Tinted, Tinted dawn” Dawn said “well nice to meet you tinted dawn, as you heard my name is twilight sparkle” twilight said with dignity “and dash what about that lab coat?” twilight asked as dawn glared at dash “You forgot the lab jacket” dawn whispered to dash “Woops…” Dash said out loud. “Whoops what? You can tell me dash, I’m your friend” Twilight said eagerly “Sorry twi, confidential information.” Dash said in a sour manor “Oh, alright” Twilight said disappointed as she flew back to her cloud to continue reading…
