"WOOHOO!! WE KICKED STARLIGHTS BUTT!! TIME TO PARTAY!!" Pinkie yelled, making every pony wince.
"Yay. We really did. Did you see how assertive I was?" Fluttershy asked, but the pink pony was to engulfed with all the plans for a big upcoming celebration, to recognise another day the mane 6 had saved the day.
"I'm sure y'all want some cider. It's especially made by Granny Smith." Every pony turned to face Applejack with all glee faces. All except for Rainbow Dash.
"Rainbow darling, are you alright? You seem so, how can I say this, dreadful. You haven't spoken a word after the big fight, and you don't even have a smile on your face after AppleJack mentioned cider." Rarity, sitting next to Rainbow, put a hoof on Rainbow's back.
Rainbow sighed and shuffled away from Rarity's company. Everyone else gave Rarity, the what's-wrong-with-her look, but she just shrugged.
"Hey Rainbow, do you want some cider?" Twilight questioned, wondering why Rainbow was so down. They had won the battle for their cutie marks, after all.
"Naww I-I'm fine. I just don't feel, y'know, in the mood." Rainbow looked at Twilight's eyes, as her mind wondered off.
Uhh.. Rainbow, are you- Gotta go!!" A faint rainbow trail lead behind her, and a loud thud of a door came quickly after.
"Do you girls know what that was all about?" Fluttershy said, while she looked through the castle halls.
"Im sure Rainbow Dash is fine, she might just be tired." Replies were quickly followed.
"Of course Twilight."
"Yes dear."
"Sure looks like it."
"Okie dokie loky!"
"And anyways Twi, if RD needs some help, she'll just call for it."
Rainbow entered her room. Wow, I sure seem to get lost in this castle easily. Twilight had let all of her friends stay at her castle for a while, despite the fact that the five ponies were going to make a lot of noise.
She groaned. How could she of gotten her cutie mark taken away from her, just like that!! It was frustrating, knowing that some crazed-maniac had taken away her cutie mark. It was like her wings getting taken away from her! She wondered what would happen if that truely did happen.
Rainbow...
"Huh? Who's there?"
It's me Rainbow Dash, King Sombra, ruler of the crystal empire.
"Is this some sought of sick joke? I thought we defeated you!"
Oh yes, you surely defeated me, even though I'm talking to you."
"Whatever. What do you want?" Rainbow spat. She didn't like the fact that she was talking to Sombra. Something about his voice made her skin shiver.
Oh no no. It's not about what I want, it's about you.
"Wait, what? Whaddya mean? You're the villain. Don't you like getting things for yourself?"
Can I say something? I've long moved on from Sparkle, and now my mind has its full attention on you.
"Huh? Why do you like me now? What do you want!! I need to know so I can whip your sorry butt to tell you I don't have it!!"
I have one simple request. I need someone to help me with my duties. Someone to love me and care for me. Someone to rule over the world and enslave others.
Sweat trickled of Rainbow's forehead. She knew what was coming next.
I need you as my queen.
"Just like that?"
Well, no not exactly. If you come with me, you can have your beautiful wings. Or, you can stay with your, friends, and live your whole life without, your wings.
"You can't say that! I need my wings!"
Like I said before Miss dash, me or your friends.
"My friends! I would never abandon them! I am the element of loyalty after all!"
Even after she had made her decision, Sombra's voice would not leave the void in her head.
Me or your friends, me or your friends, me or your friends
"Please stop! I already said I choose my friends over you!"
Me or your friends, me or you friends.
Her yells had now turned into desperate sobs. "My friends- I-I would never gi-ve u-u-p o-n t-t-hem."
The voice still continued, refusing to leave. It kept repeating the same words over and over again. Me or your friends, me or your friends.
Suddenly a new sound erupted from Rainbow's body as she screamed, whilst her wings were held up in the air by a black aura. A ripping sound started, and Rainbow found herself convulsing in mid air while holding back fresh tears.
Blood dripped onto the floor, making Dash feel dizzy. Her screams still continued, and so did the voice.
Me or your friends, me or your friends.
"Oh she called alright!" The five friends galloped towards the screams coming from Rainbows room, hoping and praying that their friend was alright.
They burst through the door, and all gasped at the sight of their friend, whose body was covered in a crimson colour. Dashed in a crimson colour.
Rainbow made an attempt to see her friends, but she couldn't get her head to move. The only thing she could feel was the voice, still spinning inside her head. It would drive her insane.
Me or your friends, me or your friends.
"Rainbow!" Twilight shouted, her voice barely audible over Sombra's.
"You can't give up on us! You're the element of loyalty! Stay strong! I'll work out a spell to cast!"
A sudden shockwave crashed through the room, emitting a black spark. The world spun as Rainbow looked at Twilight's horn. It had been washed over with black magic, and Twilight tried to cast a spell. She desperately tried, but not a single spark came out of her horn.
Suspecting that Sombra had done this with both unicorns, Rainbow turned towards Rarity. Her horn too, had a black aura surrounding it.
Me or your friends, me or your friends.
"We're coming Dashie!!" Rainbow looked up just in time to see AppleJack and Pinkie run up to her but to be slammed into by a big chunk of black crystals.
"NOOO!! DON'T HURT THEM!!"
Another scream erupted through her body as her wings were being torn away from her body.
"Please.."
She weakly looked down at the remaining pony, who shook widely in the corner of the room. Her canary wings were strapped down onto the ground, with chunky black chains. So we're Twilight's wings.
Everyone who had tried to help her had failed, and now she could choose to live with them, or live with him, with her own wings.
Tick Tock, Miss Dash. Your wings await your approval.
She gave a defeated sigh, looked down at her friends, and choked on her own words.
"You."
Kinda rushed but still AWSOME!!!!!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE SOMBRA X RAINBOW DASH!!!!!
I've only read one other one that I really liked!!
Please more I LOVE IT!!!
Any idea when you will update?
Nice fic! Its not the best ive read but still cool! But don't do a vampire one, im not really keen on them much.
I've actually really entertained this concept in my mind quite a bit - I too enjoy some Sombra x Rainbow Dash. I really like how she continued to resist until it came to hurting her friends. While the story could have a little bit more detail to it, I'm definitely looking forward to the next chapter. ^^

7276587 BUT YOUR NAME SAYS OTHER WISE TRAITOR!
*swings batons in swinging fashion
Yeah sombra x dash is a rare ship which makes it pretty cool. soarindash and somdash are my favs.
Man my English suck ass.
7277864 LOl
Yeah I love both ships, SoarinDash is my, AND always will be my favorite ship though.
It's like the trick Discord did in 'Return of Harmony' and challenged her against Cloudsdale and her friends
7278036
Only in this case, he kind of pressured her into one option by hurting the ones she cared about and was willing to choose for - Discord showed Cloudsdale falling apart, but that was more an illusion. Still, the concept is incredibly similar. Very nice you made that connection.
7277868 I know
7277868
I've always thought Soar in and Spitfire were more of a couple. Stupid auto correct
Lol what a pun
This was published a few years ago and it said incomplete, so just in case this gets a new chapter, i’m Going to track it
