"Rainbow Dash, get up!", Twilight yelled. "Come on get up, you need to get up right now!"
Rainbow Dash still shaken from the whole evaporation thing slowly opens her eyes in pain.
"Ow, what happened?" she asked.
She looked around and saw that the seven of them were in some sort of prison cell. The cell wasn't very big and with seven of them in there it was cramped. She saw that Rarity was starting to freak out about the room and how horrid it was. Then a metal door was heard opening.
"Why you dumb oaf! Why are our honored guests down here?"
"But you said-"
He was interrupted by a smack in the back of the head.
"Ow, you just hit me."
"Just shut up and pull the switch over there."
Rainbow Dash had enough of this wondering what's going on. She flew over to the bars and saw something she couldn't explain. She saw a creature that stood up on its hind legs and was hairless. Before she could ask him a question she felt a bit queasy and started to fall to the ground. Her friends soon followed. The last thing she remembered was seeing Twilight falling on a pile of bones.

"Hey," said an unknown voice. "Hey, are you alright?"
"I don't know senior," said a voice with a strange accent. "She might still be unconscious."
"Well then give her some air, I think she's coming to." The last voice sounded a little weird, as if the person was speaking through a scratchy microphone.
Rainbow Dash tried to get up but it was no use. For some reason she felt very funny. It felt as if she was asleep for along time. The funny voice spoke again.
"Senorita, you can do it, vamos!"
"You got it, that's it", said the first voice.
Finally, Rainbow Dash was able to get up and get on her hooves. She still was weak. She wasn't able to open her eyes yet, and this scared her. Just the thought of never seeing again made her tear up. The ones that helped her up were confused as to why she was crying. Rainbow collapsed and she started to cry even harder then before. This made the first voice speak up.
"Are you alright? You seem like someone close to you died."
Finally the cyan pony speaks.
"N-no, I-I just can't see and I'm afraid I won't be able to see any more," she said with a sniffle.
"Hold on I'll be back," said the first voice.
"Where are you going and what are you doing?" asked Rainbow Dash.
"Wait a moment senorita, the senior will return in a moment."
"Well, while we wait for him to return what's your name?" asked the cyan pony.
"Mi nombre is Speedy Gonzalez the fastest mouse in all of Mexico."
"What?" Rainbow Dash was stunned to hear this. "The fastest what of where exactly?"
"The fastest mouse in all of Mexico." said Speedy.
Could she be hearing this correctly, did he say 'The fastest mouse', this surprised her as all she knew it was a joke for she can't really see at the moment. The weird voice was also gone and she wanted to know what happened to him, but this is no time to wonder were the funny things go. The note she'd received said that she would be racing some of the fastest things from many different lands, but she was still skeptical of the whole thing. Twilight did tell her the day before that if anything were to go wrong just call for her and she will do the best she could to help her. And remembering this fact she started to call out for her, and acting like a spooked hose would when lightning strikes in front of it. As she bucked, kicked and reared she prove she was still to scared and confused to even cooperate with Speedy, the first voice, or even the weird voice.
"Help, Twilight, Pinkie, Applejack, any pony save me!" she yelled as she was bucking.
"Calm down we mean you no harm, we just want to help," said the first voice as he tried to get closer.
"Don't you come any closer I-I mean it," she warned
"Please hold still we need to get this off you," said the weird voice.
"Twilight help me!" she yelled once more.
"Twilight, please...I-I'm scared. I-I don't know what's going on and these voices are messing with me," she said with a sniffle.
"Please...Rainbow Dash is it," said the first voice. "We just need to take off this blind fold off you."
"How do you know my name?" she asked backing away.
"It says it on you tag Senorita," said Speedy.
"Please for your safety and the rest of the creatures in here hold still, we are moving closer to you," the weird voice informed.
Rainbow knew if she let her guard down any pony would be able to take her down. She knew what to do. She knew that if she was touched by any of them she would fly off into the sky and get away from them as quickly as possible. Even though he was legitimately scared, she did fake the whole crying thing. She wasn't that big of a scaredy pony, she di it for dramatic effect. she knew that they were getting closer due to the fact that the footsteps are getting closer along with the occasional warning of them getting closer. the time has finally come she felt some pony touch her and she knew it was a test touch. When she felt the wait of something on her, she waited for a moment.
"Are you going to do anything you might regret?" the first voice asked.
"That depends, can hold on?"
And with out warning she opened her wings and flew up in the air. She knew that it would be only a matter of time before he fell off, not even Spike could hold on for very long. But for some reason he was still on after only ten seconds, she had to lose him. While she was flying she knew he had a tight grip on her. Rainbow did all the stunts she had learned over the years, spins, loops, stalls, barrel rolls, sharp turns, even the complicated trick she explained to Applejack, but it all failed to get him off. She knew there was only one thing she could do, she had to perform The Sonic Rainboom. It was risky because she didn't want to hurt him, she just wanted him to get off. But before she could even get to the right altitude Rainbow Dash hit something and she plummeted down to the ground spiraling out of control.

The aroma of delicious pastries, and food filled the room. Pinkie was eating all the cupcakes she can possible fit in her mouth and on her plate the size of her hoof. Applejack was a little worried that Rainbow Dash wasn't there but she figured that she was meeting the competition. Fluttershy was in the corner hiding from all the attention they were receiving. Rarity was her normal self in her finest gown talking to all the attendees of this so called 'Historic Event'. Twilight was the only that was worried and a little confuse she was sure that they were in a dungeon and something made them lose consciousness. And these creatures were a little weird looking, almost all of them walk on two legs.
"Well, you look different then the others," said a voice behind the purple mare.
"Um, were you talking t-"
"To you, yes I was. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Doctor Daisuke Serizawa and you are?" as he gestured to her.
"I'm Twilight Sparkle, and since I have these wings it makes me a princess, but you can call me Twilight." she stated.
"I am very pleased to meet you Twilight. Who did the Overseer send for, in your homeland?" wondered Dr. Daisuke
"He sent for a very dear friend of mine, her name is Rainbow Dash. Who did send for from your homeland?" asked Twilight.
"He sent for a very dangerous creature of massive proportion, it nearly destroyed all Japan, my country of origin, his name is Rodan."
"Well I hope he doesn't destroy the race." joked Twilight.
"There is no need for worry he had tamed him." said Dr. Daisuke
"Who tamed him?" asked Twilight now intrigued by his statement
"Godzilla. We also brought him just incase Rodan tries to do anything."
"Hopefully it doesn't come to that."
"Indeed, I must continue to mingle with the other guests. So long Princess Twilight Sparkle," he said as he turned from the alicorn.
Twilight was pleased to see that even though they looked different they can have a conversation with some pony and not get stares. As she looked around she could see many creatures that were called to this event. She saw a fox come her way but there is something off about him, then she spotted it he had two tails something that she knows wasn't right
"Hi I'm Miles Prower, but my friends call me Tails and we're here to watch our friend Sonic race. Who are you here for?"
"Hi I'm Twilight Sparkle and we're here to watch our friend race as well."
"Ladies, gentlemen, and creatures of all shapes and sizes, please gather around for the introduction of a life time," said a man on a lectern.
"I am Mr. Goodwill and I will be in charge of the welcoming out our well respected leader and all around good guy, Lord Ivan von Liechtenstein," exclaimed Mr. Goodwill.
Many of the people and creatures applauded his arrival but she was still skeptical. Twilight understood that Dr. Daisuke was right for putting Rodan in a place that he wouldn't hurt everyone in here but that wouldn't explain why Tails' friend and Rainbow Dash wasn't around and no one knew where they were. So she held her applause for Lord Ivan von Liechtenstein and Mr. Goodwill. Then Lord Ivan spoke.
"It is a pleasure to finally meet you all, and now that I have set the whole party in motion please enjoy these customary medallions from our land of origin. So please fill free to continue with whatever makes you all comfortable here." said Lord Ivan before he left.
Twilight still want to speak with him and see if she can find out what happened to Rainbow Dash. But that would be a problem for there was guards at every door in the room. It took her no longer then one minute to see that Pinkie would be able to move any pony from there standstill into a party mood.
Twilight went to get Pinkie's attention, "Psst, Pinkie you got a second."
"Sure Twilight but why are we whispering?" asked Pinkie.
"I need to see if I can speak with this Lord Ivan guy. So I was wondering if you can distract the guards over there so I can get past."
"Ok but only if I can use my party cannon."
Twilight giggled a little, "Fine you can use your party cannon."
With that Pinkie went and started messing with the guards I didn't take long for the guards to start laughing and fall over. Whatever Pinkie did it worked and Twilight was pleased to see that Pinkie gave a signal to come over even though she never told her to do so. Either way she was able to get past. As soon as she was through she was amazed at what she saw. It was like Luna's night but there was no constellations that she recognized and they were moving past them. It was amazing to see this she was fascinated on how this was even possible. But this was short lived when the two guards that she pasted earlier was holding Pinkie by the tail and was looking at Twilight. The one that had his hands free went for Twilight, but was stopped by a voice.
