> A Dash of Youth > by Everfree23 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Poison Joke > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash smiled boldly and she dipped down, then shot back up again, her wings flapping ferociously as she did so. She was going faster than anypony in Ponyville could ever dream of. After all, she was the fastest flyer. She closed her eyes and jolted forward, relaxing. She began to think about her friends. She loved them more than anything, but she never really had any other friends. Gilda, of course, had left her. Where was Gilda now? What was she doing with her life? Probably nothing special. She began to doze off in thought. Suddenly, she was overcome with incredible crushing pain in her whole body. She had crashed into a cliff side. She screamed in pain and dropped to the ground moaning. She rolled onto her side, and felt for any injuries. None. How on earth was she okay? Maybe the cliff didn't injure her, but what about that fall? What cushioned both hits? She rolled her eyes up towards the cliff face, and gasped. Bright blue poison joke was flowering up the side of it, and it was also under her. She wailed and dove into the air, flapping her wings. She jumped up and raced towards Ponyville, wincing from her previous pain. She was finally at the edge of the Everfree forest when her wings cramped, and froze at her sides. She hit the ground with a horrible thud. "Hey! What gives?!" she huffed to nobody. Then, another wave of pain. She squealed as a blinding flash of light formed around her. She felt the world grow around her, and felt her body move as she howled in agony. Suddenly, all the pain was gone. "What...what just happened?" she mumbled. Her voice. It was higher. Raspier. Like a foal. She flapped her wings, but her body didn't flinch. She fell flat on her face, and whined. "Rainbow Dash? Is that you? Impossible! What in Equestria happened to you?" asked a clear, anxious voice. "Twilight! You have to help me! It was the poison joke! I can't fly, I'm a foal!" Rainbow Dash begged. "I can see that...Here, come with me." Twilight replied, lifting Rainbow onto her back. Rainbow yawned. What was she going to do? Twilight would know, she could help her. It was no big deal, right? Before she could go any further, she was fast asleep. When she finally awoke, she was in Twilight's house, obviously still not grown. She moaned, and noticed a soft surface below her. She much be in a bed of some sort. Just then, Twilight entered the room. "Rainbow, I have to make a confession. It's not one I'm proud of admitting, but I have to. You see, I've always wanted a daughter. But honestly, I'm not interested in many stallions...Only that caramel colored one, the guard in the crystal empire. You know, that one I met when Sunset Shimmer stole my crown? Well, Rainbow, you're my new daughter!" Twilight beamed. Rainbow Dash gawked. What a horrifying idea! There was no way she would be a daughter to Twilight, ever! She sighed, and thudded back. Ow! Where's the pillow? Dash thought as her head hit something hard. "Be careful, Rainbow Dash!" scolded Twilight. Rainbow Dash rubbed the back of her head and looked down. There was no bed. The soft platform was nothing but her diaper. She gasped. Twilight had given her a diaper! "Twilight, are you crazy!? Get this thing off me!" she wailed, wrestling hopelessly with her padding. "Shh...Calm down Dashie, I bet you're just hungry." Twilight grinned as she lifted the flailing filly off the ground and into a high chair. She then calmly walked to her fridge, and pulled out a simple bottle of baby food. Dash gulped. This couldn't be happening! It had to be a dream! If she hadn't been so stupid, she wouldn't have crashed! She would be flying! It would be amazing and she burst above the cloud layer! A small tear rolled down her cheek and onto her high chair. Twilight glanced at Rainbow. She was angrily batting at Owlicious, who cowardly dashed towards Twilight. "Owlicious, move, I'm trying to cook!" she snarled. The owl then flew off towards the window sill, perching on it gently. "Oh Rainbow Dash, I have a snack for you!" she cooed. Rainbow was startled away from her nap, to see Twilight smiling in front of her, with a spoonful of baby food. Before Dash could protest, the vile mixture filled her mouth, and sludged down her throat. She gagged, and more filled her mouth. It had been two hours since Dash had swallowed the whole serving of baby food in order to get some valuable thinking time alone. If she could escape somehow, she could get help. She decided the easiest way to escape was to fly out a window or something. First, she needed to learn how to fly. She flapped her wings as ward as she could, but all that earned her was a heavy landing on her stomach. Her stomach gurgled, and a sharp pain shot from it. A gurgling, and then, incredible pressure. No. No way was the coolest pony in all of Equestria going to use a diaper. "Twilight! Come quick! Please, it's an emergency!" Rainbow Dash wailed. Twilight rushed in, panicking. "Dashie, what's wrong?!" she rushed. Dashie began to sweat with the effort of holding it in. "Twilight, quickly, get me to the bathroom! I'm gonna blow!" Dash winced. Twilight giggled. "Use the diaper!" she mocked, sitting on the couch and flicking on the TV. Dash began to cry, the pain churning in her stomach was incredible, but there was no way that diaper was ever going to be full. She pressed her hooves hard against the back of her diaper, and moaned in pain. "Oh Dashie, honey, just go!" Twilight assured. Dash gulped. There was no way she was using it. "Now, time for a nap..." Twilight smiled softly, placing Dash in her crib. "Twilight, please, I want to go home!" sniffed Rainbow Dash between sobs. Twilight shook her head, and quietly left the room. > Covering up > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dash looked around at the gloomy skies. Spitfire scoffed at her from a cloud above. "No way, no babies allowed in the academy!" she denied. "But Spitfire, please! This has been my life dream!" Rainbow was beginning to cry now. "No dash, we never was to see you ever again!" Spitfire shouted before racing off into the distance. Dash sniffled and wiped the tears from her eyes. When she could see again, she saw all her friends standing before her. "Sorry Rainbow Dash, but we don't really hang out with babies." smirked Applejack. and with that, they were gone. Dash screamed and awoke with a start, panting. "Oh...ok...just...just a dream..." she panted. Twilight barged in. "Dashie! What's wrong?" she cooed. "I had a nightmare..." she sniffled, and felt her diaper grow wet. She facehoofed, she HAD to stop it with the diapers! Twilight kissed her forehead and laid her down on the changing table. Dash instantly fell back to sleep as Twilight changed her, and laid her back in the crib. The next morning, Dash woke up early, to find her Pillow was yellow. Her mattress was yellow. It was definitely dye, Dash was sure of that. She glanced at her body under the covers. Yellow. It was all yellow. What was going on here!? Twilight smiled as she caught Dash's eye. How long had she been there? "I'm taking you out today. I can't have everybody knowing you're Rainbow Dash, now can I, Sunny Dreams?" Twilight winked. "And don't talk unless you can hide that rasp, that may give it away." Dash's stomach screamed out in pain, and Dash pressed her hooves against the back of her diaper. There was no way she could hold this for much longer. Dash flapped her wings harder than ever before, and only managed to get over the side of the crib before collapsing from exhaustion. Twilight chuckled, and lifted her over to the mirror. What dash saw it it still shocks her to this day. Rainbow Dash gulped, but nodded in understanding. Twilight levitated the nervous foal into her arms and sighed in content. "Rainbow Dash, I noticed something that hasn't been in your diaper lately. Care to explain why not?" she questioned. Dash gasped. "Twilight, I'm not doing that. Never." she pouted. "Oh really? Is that so?" Twilight scoffed, tickling Rainbow Dash's belly. Rainbow giggled and flailed, then, the giggle grew into a loud laugh, until finally, the diaper on Rainbow was full. Rainbow hung her head in shame as Twilight changed her. It was the most embarrassing thing she had ever done. Finally, it was time to leave. But where were they going? Rainbow didn't know. "Aww, well I'll be a filly's feast! Who's this adorable little lady here?" Applejack gushed. "That's my daughter," replied Twilight. "Sunny Dreams." "Well, darling, she simply is marvelous. Come by later, I'll make her some nice things." Rarity included. "Twilight, your daughter is very nice." Fluttershy smiled. "Can I play with her? Can I can I can I? Oh, I want to play with her!" Pinkie Pie begged. Twilight was about to answer, when suddenly a familiar pegasus came slashing down through the clouds. Her orange hair froze in place as she landed, and her dark sunglasses tilted down slightly. "Hey ponies, have you seen Rainbow Dash lately? She's not at the academy, she hasn't been for two days now." Spitfire informed anxiously. "Come to think of it, where is Rainbow Dash?" asked Applejack. The others shrugged and shook their heads. Rainbow Dash felt like she was about to cry. So she did. Tears streamed from her eyes, and she sobbed out loud at the fact that she would most likely be expelled if she never showed up. "Aww, Sunny, don't cry! C'mon, let's go home." Twilight assured. Rainbow Dash groaned and rolled around on her pillow. Her hoof was desperately jammed into the middle of her diaper, trying to stop her from peeing. But it had been hours, and she was only a foal. She sighed contently as her diaper grew warm and wet, and then, she fell asleep. She dreamt that she was a mare again, and that she was soaring through the sky, going faster than ever before on this beautiful day. Her tears flew back behind her, and a cone formed in front of her. She felt her body stretch, and shoot forward. The ponies cheered at her amazing sonic rainboom. Then, she woke up. The dream swirled in her head like oil in water, she couldn't get it out, and she didn't know if she wanted to. She pulled the covers up over her head and wrapped them tightly around her. Nothing was making any sense anymore. She wanted to go home and see Tank and her friends, play and talk with them. "Sunny Dreams," she scoffed. "What ever happened to Rainbow Dash? Oh, she just happened to disappear, no big deal.". She spent the rest of the night mocking her clueless so called friends before finally falling asleep. Her wonderful dream swirled and swirled away into a nightmare. Her sonic rainboom cast across the sky and blinded the ponies below, burning their eyes and making them scream in horrible pain. She turned to see what was happening, and crashed, cracking her open like an egg. She screamed herself awake to find her diaper was wet...and stinky. She cried in her waste until finally Twilight groggily arrived to change her and eat breakfast. Rainbow sighed and gave her wings a powerful gust, and could have actually flown, had her diaper not been full and heavily weighing her down. Twilight winced at the smell as she lifted dash to the changing table, and removed the diaper, dropping it into the trash with a loud thud. Rainbow Dash squirmed with displeasure. She felt like she was going to poop again, but there was no way that was going to happen without a diaper. Her stomach moaned with obvious distress. However, one thing Dash didn't realize was that she wasn't as strong anymore, and couldn't hold as much. Without her permission, her bowels released onto the table. Twilight scowled. "Sunny! Look at this mess you made!" she scolded. Rainbow Dash gulped, and unsteadily squeaked out, "What ever happened to Rainbow Dash?". > Foal Problems > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight was taken aback by this statement. "What...what do you mean?" she stammered. "I mean, why can't you be a true friend and help me out instead of taking advantage of me? What happened to Rainbow Dash? Where has she gone?" Rainbow was on the verge of crying at this point. Twilight bit her bottom lip and reared slightly. "Rainbow Dash, you don't understand what this means to me, I've always wanted a daughter, and I'm so close now, I just can't leave!" she explained. Rainbow Dash huffed and flapped her wings with immense power, but all she did was fly up about half a metre. Twilight rolled her eyes and grabbed Rainbow Dash from the air and walked her down the stairs. "You seriously need a bath, Sunny. A bath is nice in the early morning, anyway." she grinned. "Twilight, don't just ignore what I said! Fix things! Please, Twilight!" Rainbow Dash sobbed. Twilight's smile dropped as she shook her head tiredly. "Rainbow, stop trying, You know it won't get you anywhere." she rolled her eyes, starting up a warm bath. Rainbow Dash sighed and struggled with her diaper. There was a toilet right there, she could use it! She yanked at the straps to no avail. After half an hour of prep, she was in the bath. She was happy at the warmth that overcame her body, making her feel new and fresh. She relaxed her muscles and let herself float in the water, sighing with content. Twilight washed Rainbow Dash softly, shampooing her whole body without a single complaint from Rainbow Dash. "Ok Sunny, It's time to get out." Twilight said softly. "Aww, c'mon Twilight, just a little longer!" Rainbow whined. Twilight gave her a stern glare. "I'm sorry, what did you call me?" she huffed. "Um..Mom." Rainbow corrected, closing her eyes. She wished the tub would grow bigger, and warmer, carrying her away down a long stream, far away from Ponyville. Her little body would painlessly change back to normal, the effects of poison joke would wear away, and she would be lifted back home by her wings. Rainbow Dash's coat and mane were both soaked as Twilight scrubbed her with a towel. The towel was straight from the dryer, still hot. Rainbow Dash smiled in it's warm embrace, wrapping it tightly around her. She had been in the bath for an hour, and finally it had grown too cold. Orange dye dripped from her hair. Twilight noticed this, and gave it a good scrub with the towel. Rainbow Dash giggled, the towel was sure ticklish. She never knew she was so ticklish! "Ooh, somebody has a little tickle spot!" Twilight laughed, tickling Rainbow Dash's head. Rainbow Dash fell back and laughed loudly, trying to push Twilight away. She kicked her feet and rolled her head until finally Twilight stopped. "Well aren't you giddy!" she chuckled. Rainbow dash giggled, nodding. Then, stopped abruptly. What on earth was she doing, treating Twilight like her own mother! She didn't know, but she was sort of...enjoying it? She didn't understand it, but Twilight was actually quite a nice mother. " "Now, I have some news..." Twilight smiled weakly. "I'm time for you to be potty trained. If you have to go, tell me, and I'll get you to a toilet. Ok? Let's see how well you can do with this, and maybe you won't have to wear diapers anymore!" Twilight cheered. Rainbow smiled wide, and her eyes opened brightly. "No way! Awesome!" she giggled. Then, a thought struck her. "Mom, I have to go, now." she said more seriously. Twilight took the hint, and lifted Rainbow up into the air, sitting her down on a little plastic potty that had been safely tucked in the corner. Rainbow Dash sighed, and released her bladder into the bowl. It felt good to have an empty bladder, such a weight off your shoulders. Twilight gave Rainbow Dash a wipe and lifted her off the potty. "You must be starving, let's go have breakfast." Twilight chimed, strapping a diaper on Rainbow Dash. They walked down the stairs together to the kitchen, where Twilight proceeded to place her daughter in a high chair. Rainbow Dash gagged when the vile baby food touched her pallets, nearly spitting it out as a reflex, but she knew that if she didn't swallow it, she would just get more. Rainbow Dash stepped off the potty proudly, letting Twilight wipe her. "Mom, I want to fly! I'll fly higher, faster, and better than ever before! I wanna go to flight school! I'll be fastest, I swear! Please!" she begged. "You're still much too young! You can still barely fly, Sunny Dreams! You need to grow up first!" Twilight assured. Rainbow sulked, trotting past Twilight and storming out of the room. Twilight smiled and shook her head. Rainbow dash huffed as she plopped into her crib. Why didn't Twilight understand? She wanted to fly, and she could! She just needed practice. Twilight walked in and smiled at the new patch of yellow dye on the newly cleaned bedsheet. "Time for bed, kiddo." she cooed, pulling the covers up to Rainbow Dash's chin. "Have sweet dreams, Sunny.". Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Twilight kissed Rainbow Dash on the head, and trotted down the stairs. "Oh, hey Flu-" "OH TWILIGHT, WHERE ON EARTH IS RAINBOW DASH?! NOBODY HAS SEEN HER SINCE SHE WENT FLYING TWO DAYS THREE DAYS AGO! TWILIGHT, I MISS HER! EVERYPONY IS LOOKING FOR HER! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHERE SHE IS?!" Fluttershy sobbed, tears pouring from her eyes. "Fluttershy, I have no idea! Calm down, stop crying, she'll turn up eventually, It's gonna be ok." Twilight coaxed. Rainbow Dash listened from the crib, she felt sick. She felt like she was betraying her very best friend. It just wasn't right. But what could she do? Nothing, nothing at all. > Mommy > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash was really having some strange dreams lately. Some nightmares, and some good dreams. Tonight, she had the strangest dream of all. She dreamed that she was finally potty trained for good, and then, she had breakfast, and then, time skipped to the next scene of her dream. She was flapping her wings like mad and straining as she flew further and higher, Twilight cheering and smiling, crying ever so slightly. Finally she landed gently, and Twilight cheered, and hugged her tightly. Now, the scene had changed. She was in flight school, racing faster than every other pony. Twilight smiled from the bleachers, this was the big performance of the year, and Rainbow Dash had been chosen for the main part. She dropped down faster than everypony, going faster and faster as her tears flew back. A sonic burst of color shot from her like a bullet, and she was trailed by a bright rainbow. Then, she woke up. She considered her dream carefully, and noticed some strange things. First of all, she wasn't Rainbow Dash in her dreams, she was Sunny Dreams, with the tangerine hair and the canary yellow coat. Also, Twilight was her mother in all of them, and she wasn't grown up, she was growing up. Did this mean that she was getting used to being Twilight's daughter? Even that she was enjoying it? Maybe it was fun being young, maybe it would be better this way. No, no! She couldn't think like that! She had to escape! But right now, that was definitely the least of her concerned. She tried to recall what happened before she fell asleep. She had been thirsty, and she had a lot to drink, then later, even more. Then, Twilight let her try some tea, and she loved it, and had lots of that too. Now, she was bursting. It took her a while to realize that her blankets and mattress were already soaked. She must have already drained a bit, but she was only so small. "Mom! Hurry, hurry!" she called, but Twilight was obviously fast asleep. She moaned and hopped up and down as she tried to hold it in. Before she knew it, she was wetting the bed. Again. But she was positive it wasn't all gone. She had always had a very small bladder as a foal, and she still did now. She sat awake for another hour before she was bursting again. Eventually, she fell asleep, still continuing to wet. When she finally awoke, she sun was slowly rising in the sky. This time, she was empty, and didn't have to wet. She had to do something else, and it wasn't going to happen in the bed. Twilight groggily trotted in and gagged at the incredibly strong smell of urine. "Sunny! I thought you were trained!" huffed Twilight. Rainbow Dash cowered down, and whimpered. "I'm sorry, but I called you, and you were asleep. Twilight sighed and closed her eyes, lifting Rainbow Dash and carrying her to the potty, where she sat her down while she started the bath and washing machine. Rainbow Dash used her wings to push herself around in the warm water, but she didn't feel as comfortable as last time. Twilight seemed to be growing tired of her, and she didn't like it. She wanted Twilight to be her mommy, and take care of her. Giving her baths and food and more. She poked her head over the side of the bath, but Twilight wasn't there. She could hear clatter and loud noises coming from her room, so Twilight was probably in there, cleaning out the room so she could get Rainbow Dash out of her house. Tears rolled off her cheeks and mixed with the bathwater. She was clean now. She pulled the plug and let the bath drain, jumping out and drying herself in the cold towel. She wasn't having fun anymore, not at all. She decided that while Twilight was gone, she would learn to fly. She carefully climbed onto the countertop, which was surprisingly high off the ground. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes and powered up her wings, and jumped. Twilight held a few nails in her teeth as she hammered another plank down. It was finally done. A new extension to the crib. It had an easy access gate for Rainbow in the night, with a potty in it. It was perfect. Just as she stood up, a thud rang out through the house. Twilight's mind raced as she galloped down the stairs, what had happened? Her first thought was that Rainbow had leaped from the counter, for some crazy reason. When she arrived however, the story was not the same as she had feared. Rainbow Dash was whizzing through the air, the thud had been nothing but a bump into the wall. "Mom! Look at me!" she giggled, flying out the door and up into her room. Twilight chased her, laughing. When they arrived, Rainbow gasped at the new crib. "Oh mommy, I love it! And my sheets! You washed them!" she hugged Twilight tightly, then dashed off to the kitchen for breakfast. She happily munched on her new solid food that Twilight had finally allowed her to eat. What she really wanted was a nice juicy plate of hay fries, but grass crackers would have to do. She nibbled contently, Twilight slurping her soup. Nothing could be so relaxing in the morning, it was perfect. "Mom, NOW can I go to flight camp?" Rainbow pleaded. "You're still too young, they won't let you in!" Twilight replied, tiredly. She stood up with a sigh and sipped her coffee, smiling very weakly. Rainbow Dash shook in her high chair. "I can use a big seat!" she huffed. "Oh really?" Twilight smirked, placing Rainbow in a big seat where her head couldn't even be seen over the table. They both laughed, until there was a knock on the door. "Thank god you still have your dye on." Twilight sighed in relief as she trotted to the door. When she swung it open, she was shocked to see her friends all standing there. "Twilight, we need your magic! You need to help us find Rainbow Dash!" Rarity sobbed. The other ponies nodded. Suddenly, to Twilight shock and fears, Rainbow Dash came and stood at her side, and cleared her throat. "Mommy, are they the ponies from before? I want you to come play and your friends can go home." The voice that came out of Rainbow Dash wasn't Rainbow Dash. It was high, clear, and cheerful. The other ponies all looked at her. "Fine Twilight, Ah guess we'll be leaving then." Applejack sulked, and Rainbow Dash ran off into the living room. Twilight waved to her friends, then slammed the door and galloped off to find Rainbow Dash. "Sunny Dreams, that was incredible! Thank you so much!" she cried, trapping her daughter in a super massive hug. Rainbow smiled weakly. What was she supposed to do? Give up her mom? Not likely! > Friends > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash felt guilty for betraying her friends that way, it didn't feel right. She decided to get her mind off the topic by thinking about her current state. How old was she? She couldn't tell. Finally, she settled on an old trick her mother had taught her. She counted the stripes on her feathers, there was only one on each feather. She must only be a year old. She thought hard about this for a while. In three years, she could go to kindergarten. In four years, still kindergarten. But in FIVE years, she could be in real school. She dozed and dozed, thinking about her current situation, until it became dark. She flapped out of the crib and over to the balcony, where she gazed out at the stars. Here she was, out in open air again. She could fly off, never see Twilight again, call the police, get her friends back, and join the Wonderbolts. But the only problem was that she didn't want to. One star caught her eye suddenly, and that was because it was moving. It was a shooting star. If she found it when it landed, there was no doubt her wishes would come true. Without a second thought, she dashed off the balcony and up, until she was beside the star, racing side by side with it. The wind in her mane was breathtaking, she hadn't flown like this in quite a while. Without warning, the star hit the ground, and cast an amazing spectacle of light and flame, which sunk away as quickly as they had appeared. Rainbow was shocked as she creeped slowly towards the star. It was glowing softly, and it made her think about Twilight. Did she know Rainbow was gone? Was she looking all over Ponyville for her right now? Rainbow had no idea. She closed her eyes, and placed one hoof on the star. It was warm, a soothing kind of warm, just perfect. Taking a deep breath, she recited her wish. "I wish, I wish, I wish I was five!" she chanted. The star grew hotter, and brighter, but Rainbow didn't pull away. The wind picked up to a gust, and shot up from the ground. A ringing noise echoed through Ponyville, and a blue ring began to form around Rainbow Dash. The star was incredibly bright now, and she was probably burnt, but she didn't care. Then, and blast of blue light exploded, shaking the ground and all around it with great force, and Rainbow Dash passed out. When she awoke, she was laying in her crib, it was just the way she had left it, nothing moved. She had obviously teleported back, there was no other way. She flapped her wings with much more force than she was able to give before, and flew over to the mirror. She was overjoyed at what was in the mirror before her. A bright eyed, orange little filly, about five years old. There was no way she could sleep in that stupid little crib anymore! She could fly to the potty, too! No, not the potty, the real toilet! She was a big filly now! She raced down the stairs into Twilight's room and burst through the door. "Mom! Look at me!" squealed Rainbow as she flew. Twilight gasped. "Oh my Luna, Sunny Dreams! What in Equestria happened to you?!" she gasped. "I grew up!" giggled Rainbow, landing with a plop on the bed. "And now you have to send me to school!". Twilight sighed, and pulled up her laptop. Rainbow giggled, knowing she would be in school tomorrow. That night, she slept snuggled up beside Twilight. She was getting a new bed, she got to go to school, and it was all because of that wonderful little star. The next morning, she found a beautiful saddlebag waiting for her on the ground. It had two little suns on it, and it was bright orange. She tossed it onto her back, and raced down the stairs where Twilight was making her a lovely breakfast and a lovely packed lunch. "Thanks Mom!" she smiled, grabbing the lunch and tossing it into her new Saddlebag. Twilight smiled and served her breakfast, which she quickly inhaled, gave her mother a tight hug, and raced out the door. "That filly..." smirked Twilight. She decided to go for a little walk, down into the Everfree Forest, she needed some new flowers for her vase. "Rarity has a good sense of good flowers," Twilight thought aloud as she trotted to the boutique. "I'll take her along.". As the mares trotted further and further, they became chattier and chattier, many flowers filling their pockets. "Oh my stars, darling! Look at these simply marvelous blue flowers!" Rarity gushed, picking a wad of Poison Joke. "Rarity, no!" screamed Twilight, but it was too late. Rainbow Dash threw herself into the playground, looking around at all the nice fillies and colts around her. There was Scootaloo! She couldn't believe it! She raced over to the orange filly and tapped her on the shoulder, expecting to bee well recognized and praised shen Scootaloo spotted her. "Do I know you?" The words pierced her like glass as she remembered who she was. "No, sorry, but I'm new, and I just wanted to say -" she was cut off. "Oh my god, oh my god! You have no cutie mark, you have no cutie mark!" Scootaloo hollard, and before Rainbow knew it, the whole school was crowded around her. "Oh mah Celestia, please tell me y'all wanna be a Cutie Mark Crusader!" Applebloom gushed. "Totally! I mean, you don't have a cutie mark, you have to!" Sweetie Belle squeaked. "Well well well, another blank flank!" Diamond Tiara mocked, shoving Rainbow Dash down into the mud. Some other kids laughed, but Rainbow just gasped, and flew up into the air, flying quickly to get all the mud off. Diamond Tiara and silver spoon giggled violently. > School > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow growled at her foes, and they just gave her an evil sort of look. "Leave me alone, you bullies!" she cried, tears forming in the corners of her eyes. The crowd was taken aback. Diamond Tiara winced. "No way, blank flank! Get yourself a cutie mark, but until you do that, just leave!" she shouted in Rainbow's face, shoving her back down into the mud. The crowd burst into laughter, and Rainbow Dash began to cry. This just made the evil pair laugh harder. Tears dripped off of Rainbow's face and into the mud puddle. This isn't how she remembered school being. It didn't make any sense to her. Bullies never existed when she was younger in her old school, but suddenly they now they do? And they target her? That didn't seem very fair to Rainbow, not at all! She flew up into the sky and dove into a cloud to wash herself off. She was just about finished when the bell chimed, signaling the start of class. She hung her head low as she swooped into the classroom. The class seemed to go on for eternity, and finally, it was recess. As she wearily flapped outside, something strange happened. Her legs started aching like mad. The pain quickly rose until the pain in her body was unbearable. She dove into the bushes to hide while she figured out the problem. Then, the pain exploded again. She whined loudly as her agony cries were muffled by pain. Her limbs stretched, her body grew, and before she even had time to scream, she was a teenager. Her pale orange hair flew back in a ponytail. Yes, this story is over. But it's also NOT over. There will be a sequel coming out when I feel like it, and yes, Rarity is now a baby.
