> A Dash Of Amnesia > by FlufflePuff > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Clearing the skies > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow dash Yawned. Celestias bright, golden sun was beating down on her. She rolled over and pulled the blankets over her head. Monday mornings were the worst type of mornings Dash thought. "Wait..." Rainbow dash thought to her self. "SUN?!" She screeched jumping out from her warm bed. She hit the floorboards running. She bumped into her bedside table and smashed a colourful lamp Fluttershy had given her for her birthday last year. Rainbow dash cursed under her breath. The day was already a disaster and it was only 6:30 in the morning! She ran downstairs and flew out the door yelling "I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!" Dash pulled up outside the weather station gasping for air. She looked around. Nope, she thought. I cant see him yet. Dash tiptoed across to the list on the wall next to the cloud generator. She ran her hoof down the list. "Monday, Monday, Monday... WHERE IS MONDAY?" she said frantically searching for the date and the weather due for today. "Ah Monday." She said her hoof resting next to a picture of the sun. "Hm easy!" She said turning around only to see....Him. Rainbowdash's boss, Silver Script. "Late again it seems Rainbow dash?" he asks raising one eyebrow. "I was just on my way to clear the sky Silver Script" Dash said trying to walk away. "Now Rainbow dash you know if you are late again you are going to get fired." The tone in his voice getting more serious. "Yes Silver script" Dash sighed. She knew he could never fire her. She was, after all, the best weather pony here. Besides, Dash thought, he has said that a million times already and has never done it. Rainbow dash flew out of the weather station to clear the clouds. The wind licked at Rainbow dash’s mane. As her speed picked up she did multiple barrel rolls and backflips. She was spinning clouds and weaving in and out between trees and hills. Her job that morning was to clear the sky of clouds for a couple of hours. She wanted to have a bit of fun with it today though, as her job was a bit of a bore most days. She was practicing her signature moves for the Wonderbolts, while kicking the clouds out of her way. “Rainbow dash!” called a voice from down below. “Not now Pinkie Pie!” sighed Dash gaining speed to do her last move. “But Rainbow dash! I need to speak to you!” insisted the pink earth pony. “PINKIE PIE NOT NOW” Dash yelled. She needed to focus for this last move. She wanted to slow down and talk but it was too late to turn back now. “But RAINBOW DASH!” yelled Pinkie “WHAT?!” Rainbow dash said turning her head for a split second only to see Pinkie Pie wearing a colourful hat decorated with glitter and candy. “Do you like my new hat?” she asked grinning from ear to ear. Dash rolled her eyes and sighed. She turned around to face forwards again. SMACK! Pain took over her body. she felt herself falling into a pool of blackness. “RAINBOW DASH” she heard Pinkie scream. Then she blacked out. > Rainbowdash..... Dosent ring a bell... > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- All of Rainbow's muscles ached. She couldn't move her wings. She was tired. She snuggled up into the blankets of her bed and tried to sleep but there was somepony whispering beside her bed. Dash opened her eyes to see a purple unicorn staring at her. "Rainbow Dash your awake!" she shrieked. What? Rainbow Dash looked around? Was this strange pony talking to her? "Um I think you might have the wrong pony." Dash said looking into her gleaming purple eyes. "Aw come on Dashie!" Said a pink earth pony. "Stop fooling around!" She giggled. Dash looked around the room. There was five of them. "Are you alright sugar cube?" said the orange earth pony. "Wait...Where am I? Rainbow asked frantically looking around. "Why your in the Ponyville hospital darling!" Said the white unicorn. "Who ARE you guys?" Dash said. "Oh Dear...There seems to be something wrong with Dash.." said a yellow Pegasus. "Ya think Fluttershy?" said the purple unicorn again. I looked at them all. They seemed to be waiting for me to speak. "What happened?" Dash asked looking at them all. "You mean...You don't remember ANYTHING?!" said the Pink one. "Should I remember anything?" she asked once more. The five ponies looked at her in surprise. The purple unicorn touched Rainbows forehead with her hoof. "Rainbow Dash, do you remember us?" She said staring straight into Rainbow's eyes. There was a sudden knock on the door. Dash sat up as a Nurse came in. "Visiting hours are over girls." she said. The ponies Groaned. The nurse looked at them in surprise. "Rainbow Dash should be out by this afternoon" she said looking at the astonished ponies. "Come on girls, Lets go." The purple unicorn sighed. The other ponies started to leave but she stayed there and stared at Rainbow Dash. "See ya dashie!" said the pink Earth Pony. "Goodbye Darling!" said the white Unicorn. "Get well soon sugar" said the orange Earth Pony. "Um..um bye" said the yellow Pegasus. The purple Unicorn stared at me for a second longer then said. "I will see you soon Rainbow Dash" and she walked out. Rainbow Dash? RAINBOW DASH? think, think, think! I couldn't remember anything other than 1. I was a Pegasus 2. my name was apparently Rainbow Dash 3. I was a mare 4. I have at least 5 friends. Well...that's a start. > Cutie mark Catastrophy > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash was lying in bed bored to the bone. she had just finished lunch and was searching for a way to entertain herself. She had made a list earlier that morning, when her "friends" were visiting. "Right," Dash said. "Next on the list is....vase smashing!" Dash was nearing the bottom of the list, were all of the stupid ideas were listed. Rainbow Dash got out of bed and grabbed the vase. She was just about to let it slip from her grasp when she heard a gasp come from the door. The nurse was standing there, a look of sheer terror on her face. "Rainbow Dash!" she squealed. Dash quickly placed the vase back on the table and jumped into bed. She put on the cheesiest smile she could muster and said "yes nurse?" "I WAS coming in to tell you that you are going to be leaving this afternoon," she said. "YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS" Dash said giving a little victory dance. "BUT" said the nurse. "If you have got brain damage and do any other stupid things like trying to smash a lamp while I'm gone we might have to leave you here for a few more days." The nurse said giving me Rainbow Dash a funny look. "I'm fine" Dash sighed. she knew she should have gone with pillow tearing. Rainbow Dash's wings were still badly sprained but she could walk. Dash went and sat down in the lobby. The nurse would be coming over to get her soon. Dash picked up a magazine and started to read. She suddenly heard hoofsteps approaching her. The nurse stared at Dash. "Are you sure you are ok now Rainbow Dash?" She said looking at me with care. "As I told you earlier, I'm fine!" Dash said. Some of the nurses here were a little bit overprotective. "Okay then Rainbow Dash but remember! do not fly for a week. She nodded. "Alright then Rainbow Dash you are free to go. Rainbow galloped over to the door and stepped out. Rainbow Dash wandered hopelessly lost in the streets of Ponyville. Dash had NO IDEA where she lived or how to get there. So she stopped to ask for directions. A massive tree towered over her. It looked pretty welcoming though. Dash knocked on the door with her hoof. There was a slight pause and then it opened to show a very distressed looking Unicorn on the other side. "Hi Dash!" she said frantically. "Hey um..Unicorn." Dash said. "Oh dear, I never told you my name!" she said frantically. "I'm Twilight Sparkle, But you can just call me Twilight." she said reaching out a hoof. Dash shook it with glee. "Hey Twilight!" Rainbow said. "um what I was going to say was.." "Here," Twilight said helping me through the door. "No, I really don't want to stay it just.." "No I insist! lets talk about it over a cup of tea" Twilight said. she started to help Dash through the door and into the kitchen. "Hey! I'm fine!" Dash said. "I didn't forget how to walk!" Dahs laughed. As Rainbow Dash brushed past Twilight she screamed. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Twilight shrieked. "What, What?" Dahs asked looking at the terrified unicorns face. "RAINBOWDASH YOUR CUTIEMARK!!!!!!!" she shrieked. Sure enough, when I looked down I saw a BLANK FLANK!
