//------------------------------// // Five // Story: My Little Daddy? // by Perry Pinkie Potter //------------------------------// "Zecora, we're coming in!" Twilight yelled. And she busted down the door. "Rainbow Dash!" Twilight cried, relieved. Soon, everypony was surrounding Rainbow, hugging her. "Oh, we were so SO worried! Are you okay, Dashie?" Pinkie asked. Something clicked in Dash, and she threw them off. "DON'T CALL ME THAT!" She snapped. "Rainbow, you've got to know this isn't real-" Twilight started, but Rainbow Dash interrupted. "SHUT UP!" Dash was now crying. She has broken down. "Sh-shut up. It's real." "Rainbow Dash, how could it be? How could any of this be true? He-" Twilight couldn't do it. "He's not real." Applejack stated lightly. "I'm sorry sugarcube, but he ain't." Dash whispered. "I know." "I-it's just, after losing dad when I was so little, well, I barely knew him. And, the idea that, that I had another one, it just- I was willing to believe anything. Even that he was human. I know you girls would never betray me, and I know there's no spell that could send me there. Heck, who even knows if humans are real?" "Oh, I wouldn't say THAT." Pinkie Pie said, thinking of Lyra. "Who knows, they may even be watching us right now." "Huh?" Applejack shook her head. "Um, never mind. Emotional moment." Pinkie chuckled nervously. "You can even go to Princess Celestia if you'd like." Twilight said. "No, I believe you. Just like I should have in the beginning." Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes. "I'm sorry." "There's nothing to be sorry about." Rarity smiled. "We're just sorry that you're so upset. I was so worried!" Fluttershy said. Twilight nodded. "We all were." "Although it's hard to see this dream end, you'll overcome it, with help from a friend. Have hope, Rainbow Dash my dear, and know that we are always here." Zecora smiled. "Thanks Zecora." Dash said. "Any time, Rainbow, you are welcome, you know." Back at the castle, Pinkie Pie had thrown a 'Rainbow Dash is back, and she's okay, and we're all together again' party. Rainbow Dash hugged the book tightly. "Thank you." She secretly whispered to it. Then she went off to join the party. Everypony was so busy, that nopony saw the book flip open to the first page, as words appeared. You're welcome. Then, there was a blue flash, and the book disappeared. Though many tried to look for it, nopony could ever find it. Nopony except one. But it wasn't Rainbow Dash, or even Twilight. It wasn't even Celestia. It was somepony you'd never expect...
