> Mind Swap > by D3rpy H00v3s > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Prologue > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The sky outside was clear blue. Twilight stretched herself while she listened to the birds singing outside. What a perfect day. She walked up to the mirror. She picked the mane-brush using her powers and started fixing her mane, which looked pretty much like the time Rainbow Dash had given her a blow dry the day they met. Spike had left for Canterlot to help Princess Celestia with some royal business so the library was very silent except for Owlicious hooting, which meant he wanted some food. Twilight fed him some seeds and Owlicious hooted happily. Today was a very special day. It was exactly a year since Twilight and her friends had first met. Pinkie Pie had arranged a party which wasn’t much of a surprise. They had agreed to have the party at the library, just as the first party Pinkie Pie had arranged one year ago. Twilight had decided to learn some new spells they could enjoy at the party even more. She found some pretty cool stuff like awesome illusions, deep voices, mind swap and more. This party would be awesome. Pinkie Pie knocked on the door, or rather head banged the door. Twilight opened the door and all her friend stormed in. Pinkie Pie had brought her party cannon to set up the party in ten seconds flat. Rainbow Dash had brought a pink cloud which made Twilight wonder. ‘’Isn’t that Discord’s creation?’’ Twilight asked. ‘’ Yes, but I took one of them home since they are so awesome.’’ Rainbow Dash said with a big smile. Pinkie Pie had no problems with the cotton candy cloud. She was overjoyed to taste the chocolate rain again. Even Rarity took a taste. Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash was dancing to some very funny songs. Nothing could possibly go wrong tonight. Twilight decided it was time to show the spells she had learned. The deep voice was extremely funny especially on Fluttershy. Now they wanted to try the mind swap spell. That was even funnier because no pony had the same personalities. Pinkie Pie switched with Fluttershy. Rarity switched with Applejack and Twilight switched with Rainbow Dash. After a while everything back to normal. It was starting to get very late so everypony had to leave. They all waved farewell and Twilight went to bed. This party was a real success. > Twilight Dash > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight woke up with a big scream. This place was definitely not the library. The walls were white, like clouds, and it was decorated with various posters, mostly of the Wonderbolts. She felt something sticking out of her back, something connected to her body. Twilight rushed up to a mirror, much faster than usual. She screamed again this time even louder. Her hide was cyan colored and her mane had the colors of the rainbow. She had become Rainbow Dash. The spell must have had some after effects. Twilight started to search for the book, but she remembered that this was Rainbow Dash’s house. Suddenly it knocked on the door. Twilight opened the door, and outside was Scootaloo. ‘’Are you ready Rainbow Dash?’’ Scootaloo asked. ‘’Ready for what?’’Twilight replied unsure of what she should say. ‘’ You haven’t forgotten have you? You are supposed to give us a flight lesson.’’ Scootaloo said, not sure if she should laugh or not. “Yeah, the flight lesson. I would never forget that” said Twilight trying to sound confident. She didn’t want to disappoint the kids that were expecting her, or rather Rainbow Dash. There was one problem though; she didn’t know how to fly. Luckily for Twilight, Scootaloo couldn’t fly yet so they had to walk. That luck didn’t last for long. They had to get down from the clouds in order to get to the school. “Are you sure there aren’t another way down, since you can’t fly, no offence.” said Twilight. “Are you feeling okay Rainbow Dash? You know that the only way down is too long away from here. We wouldn’t make it to the school in time. You have to fly me down” said Scootaloo. If the real Rainbow Dash was here, she’d probably said “Dun-dun-du”. Scootaloo climbed up on her back. Twilight was really nervous. She didn’t know anything about flying. She hadn’t read the book about flying yet since she didn’t think she would actually have to fly in the near future. Here she was, about to actually fly. Twilight readied her wings. It couldn’t be that hard, right? Twilight took deep breathes and readied her for what to come. “Are you going to take soon?” said Scootaloo impatient. “Yeah, I’m just warming up” said Twilight trying to sound like Rainbow Dash. She leaped off the clouds and started to fall towards the ground. She spread her wings and she felt the air under the wings. She did it. She was flying. Now it was just left to learn the next problems, how to turn and how to land. She tried what she found natural, which resulted in doing an uncontrolled barrel roll that almost made Scootaloo fall off. Twilight was getting dizzy. Whatever she did, she couldn’t make a turn. She was pretty sure she wasn’t flying in the direction of Ponyville by now. She was starting to get tired. She couldn’t keep on like this much more. Her vision was starting to get blurry. She was pretty sure she could hear Scootaloo crying. Twilight was starting to get angry on herself. If she’d only had told her before instead of trying to be Rainbow Dash. Suddenly her wings locked, and she started to fall towards the ground. The only thing she could hear was the wind howling in her ears. She tried to scout for Scootaloo, but she was paralyzed. Her life flashed before her eyes. The day Princess had let Twilight be her student. The day she met her friends for the first time. Soon it would all end. Suddenly it all went dark.
