> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just don't understand what just happened. I was just performing in front of hundreds of ponies and bring joys into their eyes. I was completely the most awesome Wonderbolt that ever lived. Until, one of my teammates made a mistake and formed a storm cloud. Thanks to that mistake, my life and the lives of Equestria just changed.

As the Wonderbolts and I were performing in Ponyville, the crowds were cheering our names. Then, we impressed them by performing an awesome tornado. We were in a complete control of that beast. Suddenly, I spotted Soarin goggle was messed up by the forceful wind and he was blown away. He accidentally crashes into me and made me separated from the others.

As I was blown away, I crashed into that dark cloud. When I entered that stupid cloud, the lightning within it just struck my wings. The pain from the thunder was unbearable. Finally, I crashed into the ground.

I was completely numb from the collision with the hard ground. I can't even move a single muscle, because I believe that all of my bones are broken. Then, my teammates dashed to my aid and tried to pick me up, but I cried in pain when they touch. Without hesitation, they picked me up, ignored my cries, and rushed me to a hospital. 

When they gotten into the hospital, so many doctors and nurses rushed to my aid. They tried to help me from dying, but I kept resisting every time they touched me. Finally, they injected a medical needle inside, causing me to blackout.





I opened my eyes slowly from that weird vaccine they injected me. My vision was kinda blurry for the moment. When it cleared, I spotted my friends waiting in the room for my recovery. “Girls,” I spoke in a tired voice.

When they heard my voice, they cried my name as they rushed towards me. I could see the tears of joy in their eyes. “Rainbow Dash,” Twilight cried my name as she gently nuzzled my head. “We were so worried about you! We actually thought that we lost you!”

“What do you think that crazy accident can kill the awesome Rainbow Dash,” I bragged in my injured voice. “As if.”

“Godly sugarcube,” Applejack says, “we're so glad that you're alright.”

“Don't worry girls. Soon, I'm going to get out of this hospital and be back performing with the Wonderbolts. When am I going to get out? Two or three days?”

“Darling,” Rarity concerned. “You aren't leaving that soon. I mean look at yourself! You look awful!”

When she levitated a mirror in front of me, I totally agree with Rarity. They bandages almost everywhere on my body. They bandage my forehead, my chest, and my legs. I turned around to check on my wings and they were bandaged up as well. I lowered my head from my horrible aftermath. “So,” I said, “it's that bad, huh?”

Suddenly, Fluttershy lay her head on my chest and bursts out tears. “OH RAINBOW DASH,” she cried. “I WAS SO SCARED OF WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU!! WHEN THEY RUSHED YOU INTO THE HOSPITAL… I JUST CRIED WHILE YOU WERE BEING TREATED!! I WAS AFRAID THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE DIED!!”

“We were all afraid,” Twilight cried as well. “We really thought… that we lost our best friend!”

I calmed all of them down by saying, “Girls! Girls! Calm down. I'm still here, am I? There's no way I'm leaving y’all without saying goodbye. I'm just glad that y’all are the first ones to see when I awake.” Finally, they wrapped their tears away and smile back at me.

“Oh Dashie,” Pinkie cried at me. “I'm so happy that you're alive! I'm so gonna make you a get well cake!” Then, she leaned in and gave me a big hug.

When she touched my wings, I cried out in pain. Everyone of them were alerted from my cried. “You need to be careful,” a voice from the door. When I turned to the door, it was Nurse Redheart. “Her wings are still in bad condition. You're very lucky that we manage to save your wings. Not many pony wings from a single lightning strike.”

“So,” Twilight asks the nurse, “how long will Rainbow Dash recover from her injuries?”

“Very long. Her body is still fragile from the accident. You would probably be in here for couple of months.”

I lowered my head from the results. “So,” I said, “I’m going to be stuck here for months?”

“Probably not.” I lifted my head and listen to her good news. “The doctors had received a pill that'll heal your injuries. However, when you have taken the pill, you will be in a deep sleep in order for it to process.”

“How long will I be asleep?”

“Couple weeks or a month. But don't worry. I’ll be right here for you when you wake up.”

“And so will we,” Twilight added.

I really appreciate my friends morale boost. It gave me the spirit to go through with this. “Thanks girls,” I said to them. “I really need that.”

“I really hate to say this,” the nurse said to my friends, “but the visiting hours is over. I really am sorry.”

“It's alright,” Twilight said. “You won't if we check on her tomorrow?”

“Y’all may visit her anytime you want.”

“Thank you. Come on girls.”

Before they left, they all have says goodbye to me:

“See ya later Dash,” Applejack said.

“Take care darling,” Rarity said.

“Goodbye Rainbow,” Fluttershy whispers.

“Farewell Rainbow Dash,” Twilight said.

“Goodbye Dashie,” Pinkie gently hugs me. “I’ll make sure I will check on you everyday! I will watch over you while you're sleeping-Wait that come out wrong!” She always cheers up my day. “Don't you worry, Dashie! I will make you a biggest sweet when you wake! What do you want?! A giant cupcake! A mega welcome back cake-”

“Alright, sugarcube,” Applejack pulled her out the room.

As she was dragging her, Pinkie Pie kept on saying a bunch of sweets. “An super duper ice cream cake! A bunch of gigantic chocolate chip cookies! A awesome cheesecake! Or an gigantic super duper ice cream cake volcano! I will make it erupt chocolate!”

After they've all left, it was just me and nurse. That was the last time I saw my friends as themselves. “You really have good friends,” Nurse Redheart said.

“Thanks,” I appreciate her comment. I lowered my head in discourage. Knowing that I would go into a deep sleep within weeks or a month. “Do I really need to take this pill?”

“I'm afraid so. But don't worry, dear. I will always check on you everyday on how you're doing.”

“Thank you, Nurse Redheart.”

After she'd handed me the pill, she said while leaving the room, “I will give you some space.”

When she exited the room, I stared at both the pill and the glass of water for it. I was a little nervous about the deep sleep process, but I have to do it for my friends. I made a promise to them that I will be back better than ever. Finally, I took the pill and went to sleep.





Finally, after several weeks I guess, I have finally awaken from the pill. It was night time when I wake up. I was so hungry and thirsty. Luckily, there were some cookies and a juice box on the table next to my bed. I guess Pinkie sent them to me when I recovered.

After I’d ate them, I use this emergency phone right behind me and tried to call anyone available. Sadly, there wasn't anyone on the line. I even tried to shouted out for any of the staff. Unfortunately, there's still no response from anyone.

So, I gently gotten out of bed and figure out what is going on. Before I headed out the door, I noticed there were cards by the door. When I looked through the cards, there were so many ponies that were kind enough to send them while I was asleep. From my friends, my teammates, the princesses, and especially one from Scootaloo. She drawn a picture of me and her flying together. I was really touched by all of their gifts, especially my little sister.

When I stepped out of the door, it was really creepy. The hallways was completely trash up. The walls were struck and torn by something. There were wheelchairs and medical stuffs left on the ground. It was like something out of a horror movie.

I tried to search for any of the staffs or any pony in the hospital. I'm starting to believe there wasn't any pony alive here. There were blood stains on the walls, ground, doors, and on the equipments.

I'm starting to wonder what's going on. Did the changelings attack Equestria again? Did Sombra return and invade as well? However, there's one question that really worried me the most. What happened to my friends when this happens?

Suddenly, I finally found one pony in the hospital, Nurse Redheart. She was just staring at the wall in front of her. “Nurse Redheart,” I called her name. “Thank goodness that there's some pony is here. What happened here? What's going on?”

Then, I heard a hiss from her. I both weird and confused about her. “Nurse Redheart,” I shouted, “are you alright?”

When she finally turned around, I was totally creep out by her appearance. She had red bat eyes. She even had bat fangs as well. “Nurse Redheart,” I said confused. After I’d said her name, she just spring out bat wings.

As I was surprised by this unexpected appearance, the bat nurse just rushed and tackle me to the ground. I cried out in pain when my back wings hit the floor, because they're still sore. As she held me to the ground, she tried to bite me but I kept dodging her attacks.

Then, I pushed her off of me and started to run away. Sadly, I couldn't out ran her because of her wings. She then trips me by grabbing my back leg. When my head hits the floor, I grew numb from collision and everything went into a blur. After my version came back, I spotted Nurse Redheart slowly crawled towards me. Before I could get up, she dived at me and hold me down. She licks her lips and slowly drawn fangs to my neck. Luckily, my left leg was freed and I punched her in the face, which knocked her out.

I picked myself up and began catching my breath. I examined Nurse Redheart body and I didn't understand how she turned out like this. I was about to get out of the hospital, until she regained consciousness and tackle me to another room. I quickly shoved her away from me, but she kept resisting. I placed my hoof against her neck, preventing her from biting mine. Finally, I used my strength to pushes her to the ground, rushed out of room, shuts the door, and quickly barricade it.

As I was breathing too hard, I began rubbing my wings gently. My wings really hurts from the multiple times I was tackles to the ground. I was just resting on the floor from the close to death counter, until the bat nurse began growling and banging her head against the door window. After she'd scared me, I just ran for my dear life without looking back.

Finally, I made it out of the hospital without getting killed. When I gotten outside, I saw nothing but fog filled the air. Only the bright moon shines through out the sky. I began heading back to Ponyville, hoping my friends are alright.

> Chapter 2
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

As I was trotting towards home, I was wondering about what had happened back in the hospital. Was whatever happened to Nurse Redheart back there the reason for what’s happening right now? What happened to the princesses while this is happening? Most importantly, are Twilight and the others  safe from this devastation? I hoped everything would be answer when I made it to Ponyville.

When I finally arrived home, Ponyville was completely deserted. I couldn’t even spot any pony throughout the street because of the fog. I had hoped that every pony were hiding from this disaster. I don't even want to think about my friends. I just hope that they're alright.

The first place I checked first was Twilight’s castle, hoping my friends are hiding in there. I made it to the front door and carefully open it, but it was left open. So, I entered the castle without making a noise. As I was sneaking my way through the halls, I noticed that the doors were busted through and torn down.

Suddenly, I accidentally slipped to the floor. As I picked myself up, I noticed that there was blood on my hoof. I examined the floor and it was covered with blood. Without even thinking, I just ran towards the meeting room. I really hope that Twilight and the others are there, but I was wrong. When I entered the room, it was completely empty.

I was freaking out over the absence of my friends. As tears were running down my face, I just cried out all of my friends names. Sadly, there was no answer from any pony. I just fell to the ground and was sobbing over the loss of my friends. 

Then, I noticed that map is lighting up. As I picked my head up, I saw my cutie mark sparking at Canterlot. If I want to stop whatever is causing this whole mess, then Canterlot is my best chance. Finally, I picked myself up, wiped away my tears, and began heading to my objective.

Suddenly, when I turned around, I immediately spotted Starlight. “Starlight,” I said. “Is that really you?” Sadly, she answered my question by flaring her bat wings. “Oh, come on!”

She tackled me onto the table and tried to bite my neck, but I kept dodging her attacks. After I’d pushed her away, I ran for my dear life. As I was running, I heard Starlight shrieking through the entire castle and probably outside. Thanks to that high pitch scream, I saw more of them begin to chase me. As I scrambled out of the castle, more appeared and blocked my escape.

Ten of them, including Starlight, had surrounded me and were preparing to kill me. So, I have no choice but to fight back. I manage to punch three of them and kick two in the flanks. Then, Starlight used her magic to toss me against the wall and hold me down. The bat pony was about to end me, but she gasped, “Dashie?! Is that you?!”

I recognize that high pitch voice anywhere. I stared at the pony and I was shocked by her appearance. “Pinkie Pie,” I cried. It was Pinkie Pie, but sadly she was one of those bat ponies as well. “What in the hay happened to you?!”

“Oh, I’m a vampony.”

“A vam what now?”

“A vampony. Half vampire and half pony.”

I was shocked by what she just said. “You're a vampire!”

“What? No, silly. A vampony.”

“How did this happened to you?!”

“Oh, it’s a long story, but you should’ve been there to see  it.” Until, one of them ended the conversation between us by hissing at Pinkie.“Oh yeah! I need to ask you something. Can I suck your blood? Yes or no? I’m seeing a yes face over here.” 

Then, she rushed down and tried to bite me, but I manage to shove her aside. Before I could escape, two more tackle me and hold me down. As I was held against my will, Pinkie Pie was about to suck my blood. I thought it was all over for me, until a bright light blinded all of us. “AAAAAAH, I heard Pinkie screamed, “THE BRIGHT LIGHT IS BACK!! EVERY VAMPONIES RUUUUUUN!!!” All of the them fled from the light. I was still blinded by the light, until some pony grabbed my hoof and pulled me to safety.

As I began to regain my vision, I could see the mysterious pony lure me to city hall. After it pulled me inside, the pony quickly locked the door. “Rainbow,” a familiar voice coming from the pony. When the pony removed it’s hood, I was so happy. It was Twilight herself. “Is that really you?”

I answered by giving her a big old hug. I felt her hugging back. We were both crying because it was so good to see my best friend alive. I thought she'd become one of them.

“Rainbow,” she cried, “it's so good to see you again! Thank goodness that you didn't turn into one of them!”

“Same here,” I cried too. “Is there any pony in here?”

“No. We're probably the last surviving ponies in Equestria.”

“Twilight… how did this all happened?”

She took a deep breath and began explaining about the vampony apocalypse. “Alright. I'm not entirely sure how it happens, but I believe it was caused by some source of disease. A virus that infects the ponies to become vampires-”

“Vampony.” She stared at me confused, until I tell her why I said it. “Pinkie said that… you know… as a vampony. Great, I’m going to say that every time.”

“Anyways, the way it's spreading across Equestria is by injecting it to others. Even a single bite by an infected pony, will turned you into one of them. So far, their only fear is light. That's why they love traveling during the night. I tried to find a cure or a spell to destroy the virus, but I couldn't find it. It was like this virus came from something… or someone?”

“Twilight… I need to know something…” I took a deep breath and preparing to hear the truth. “What happened to our friends?”

I knew it was going to bad, because she lowered and shook her head. “When we were heading to the hospital to check on you, we saw that the sun went down and moon came up. It was weird, because it was nowhere near night time. Then, we heard screaming coming from Ponyville. We decided to head to town to figure out what's going on.

“When we got there, it was a massacre. So many ponies were attacked by those monsters. Me and the girls tried to escort as many ponies as we could to the castle. By the time we got as much as we could inside, I went back and find the others. I found them, but…”

She stopped and began sobbing. I trotted to her and wrapped my forehooves around her. I told her to hush and tried to calm her down. “So that explains the rest,” I asked her.

She nodded as she wipes her tears away. “What I don't understand… is how are they speaking?” I tilted my head, confused about what she's saying. “So far, I figured that most of the vamponies have the mind of a bat. But for our friends… it's different for them. Like they've evolved and have their sanity. As if they've been infected by someone very rare. So far, only Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie have it. Who knows how long it will be before many more can evolve?”

After she was finished, I asked one more question that I hoped it would brighten my day. “Twilight..” I was scared to finish. “...is Scootaloo one of them?” She nodded. I was heartbroken. I just cried in front of her and fell to the floor. Twilight wrapped her wings around me and comforting my sorrows.

“I am so sorry, Rainbow Dash.”

“This is all my fault! If I hadn’t been injured, I could've saved all of them! But no… they're all monsters now! Some element of loyalty I turned out to be!”

Twilight lifted my head towards her. “Rainbow Dash,” she cried. “None of this is in anyway was your fault! We didn't know any of this was going to happen! But… we will figure this out together.” I finally calmed down and wiped the tears away. “Come on. Let's get those bandages off of you.”

“Alright, but don't unwrapped the ones on my wings… they're still sore.”

“Understood.”

As she gently pulled the bandages off my body, I told her about the map from the castle. “Twilight… while I was at the castle, the map showed my cutie mark at Canterlot.” 

“What,” she's surprised. “The maps hardly shown any of our cutie marks while I was hold up there.”

“Well, I believe that our only chance to fix all of this is at Canterlot.”

“Rainbow Dash… we don't know that. Canterlot could be overrun by them. It was probably the first to fall when all this  happened. The only way to be safe is to stay here, until we find a cure.”

“Twilight, are you even listening to yourself! If what you said about them evolving, then who knows how long until they figure out that we're in here!”

“Rainbow, they will never figure out. We're safe in here as long as we need. Now, just relax and calm down. Like I said we're safe.” After she was done unwrapped the bandages, Twilight began trotting away from me. “I need check on my research. Would you mind if you could watch out for any of them? Remember, we’re the only survivors!” I nodded before she entered another room and shut the door.

Before I could see what was outside, I noticed a scroll on the floor. I thought it was one of the letters in Ponyville. When I check it out, it was a letter from Princess Celestia. I read it:

Dear Twilight,

In case you don't know by now, but there's an infection spread across Equestria. The virus has infected so many innocent ponies and turned them into vampires. Fortunately, I may have found a cure for this madness, but I need you and your friends to come to Canterlot right now. I have formed a shield around the castle to keep out the infected ponies and bring the uninfected inside. Be warned, if you have been bitten by one of them, then you will become a vampire. I wish you good luck, my faithful student. Please be safe.

Sincerely, your teacher,
Celestia

I was surprised after reading the letter. I'm also angry that Twilight was hiding this from me. I was about bust into her room and demand an explanation, until I heard her having a conversation with some pony. I pressed my ear against the door and listen in.

“My master,” Twilight’s voice, “I have already told you that I may have found the last survivor. I have found my friend outside earlier and brought her in.”

I couldn't heard her master voice clearly. I could only hear Twilight’s voice and I already knew that she's one of them.

“What?! My master, what about the others?! You know that they will feed on her!

“But master-”

“I understand. I will bring her to your position. Soon, she will be all yours, my master.”

After the conversation was done, I quickly distanced myself from the door and ran to the window. When Twilight exited the room, she spoke to me, “Rainbow.” I turned my head towards her. “I’ve changed my mind, we will go to Canterlot. Hopefully, Princess Celestia isn't infected. Just let me pack up my some supplies before we head the road.”

After I’d nodded, she left me alone. I can't believe that I was tricked and lied to by my best friend. Of course, she wasn't herself from this vampony form. I'm also curious of her master. Could he be the one who's behind this? I just need to focus on escaping from Twilight and trying to head to Canterlot, without getting bitten. I'm not going to be happy about what I’m going to do next.

> Chapter 3
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I follow Twilight to her supply room and see she was packing some food for our trip. She tosses my bag to me and began filling up hers. “Do you really think we need all of these supplies,” I asked her. “We could probably make it to Canterlot within a day.” 

“We have to travel by hoof, to avoid being spotted in the air,” Twilight explains. “Besides, you couldn't travel by air in your condition. Your wings are still damaged. Who knows how long it will take for them to heal properly?”

After she was done packing, Twilight grabbed the map and explained, “Alright then. Somehow we need to make our way out of Ponyville without drawing attention. Then, we need to make our way through the forest carefully. It's night time, which means there will be dangerous creatures lurking in the shadows. I think we should-”

“Twilight,” I grabbed her attention. I was afraid to reveal her dirty little secret, but I don't care what she was going to do to me. I took a deep breath and resumed, “You can drop the act. I already know.”

She was both nervous and confused about what I was saying. “W-What do you mean,” she asked nervously.

“You know what I am talking about. I know that you're a vampony.”

Her eyes spring open by shocked. “W-What?! That's completely ridiculous! Do I look like a vampire to you?!”

“I heard your little conversation with your master. The reason why you want to leave because your master wants me. The reason why you don't look like a vampony is that you're probably using a disguise spell.”

“Ummm… Uhhhh…”

Finally, she gave up and revealed her vampony body. I wasn't surprise by her body, but I was still surprised that she lied to me. “Twilight,” I cried, “how did this happened to you?!”

“My master gave this to me,” she smiled. “He freed me from my foolish royal body and gave me a new role: to serve him. So far, all of the ponies have been turned into vampires. Well, all except for you.”

“Twilight, you already know that I am loyal to Equestria. All of what's happening is wrong, Twilight. All of our friends are mindless monsters; only controlled by one being. You already know that this is pure evil.”

“Evil? Rainbow, my master is freeing us from mortality. When you have become a vampire, then you're immortal. That's the greatest gift any pony can give us.”

“For what cost, Twilight?! Being enslaved and controlled by a heartless monster!”

“Damn it, Rainbow! Just listen to what I’m saying! My master will give you a new body and it will makes you live forever! Please, be a good friend and accept the offer of a lifetime.”

“Sorry, Twilight. Thanks for the offer, but no thanks. I already know what I'm doing. And I’m also sorry…”

She tilted her head and asked, “For what?”

“For this!”

Finally, I slammed the door and locked her inside. I grabbed my bag and quickly exited the building. After I'd burst out of the door, a group of vamponies emerged from the shadows and began to chase me. I tried to lose them, but more and more just kept coming. I hoped that I would finally shake them off my tail by making a u turn, but sadly I just cornered myself.

“Oh,” I heard Pinkie’s voice right behind me, “that's a bummer. Well, good news for me though.”

“PINKIE,” I yelled in anger.

“Sorry Dashie, but I really want your blood.”

As they were closing in, I tried to find a way to escape. Without hesitating, I just busted into a window of Sugarcube Corner. After I'd gotten inside, I quickly barricade the windows and doors before they could manage to get in. I was catching my breath and was relieved that I manage to keep them out, until a loud burst from behind surprised me. “HEEEEEEEEEEERE’S PINKIE!!!”

I turned around and immediately spotted Pinkie heading straight towards me. I manage to dodge her attack and shoved her against the wall. Then, she used her tail to cover my eyes and pushed me off her. After I had picked myself up, I spotted her opening the doors as she cried, “GUYS!! I NEED HELP!! SHE IS A FIGHTER!!”

Five of them entered the room and charged right at me. Without even thinking, I just tackled one of them and knocked it out. Then, I kick the two on the sidelines and gave one an uppercut. I was cut off when one tackled me to the floor and tried to bite me. Luckily, I manage to kick it right in the batteries.

Sadly, none of my attacks could keep them down. The vamponies, who I attacked, picked themselves up as more of them came in. I ran into the bakery room and cornered myself again. As Pinkie lured them towards me, she laughed, “Sorry Dashie, but none of your attacks ain't going to be enough to defeat us! Now, your blood is all ours!”

I quickly look for anything to distract them. Luckily, there are some flour bags right behind me. First, I have a conversation with them before I use the bags. “Alright,” I said. “Alright. You guys finally caught me. I'm ready for my blood to be drank.”

“Oh goody! I bet your blood will tease sweet!”

“But before y’all suck my blood, I need to tell you guys something very important.”

“What is it?”

“SUCK THIS” I yelled as I  threw the bags of flour at them.

After the bags burst upon the vamponies eyes, they all cried out in pain. “AAAAAAH,” Pinkie cried. “THAT IS NOT WHERE FLOUR IS SUPPOSED TO BE!!” As they were panicking, I manage to escape without being followed.

I immediately spotted a easy exit to the Everfree Forest and headed straight for it. I was so close to escape from the town, until I was tackled by another vampony. I quickly got back up and face the monster, but I was shocked by the presence of another best friend, Fluttershy. She's definitely similar to her previous bat form.

"Fluttershy," I tried to convince her. "This form is controlling your mind! I know that you're in there somewhere! You need to fight it!" She responded by roaring at me. "Okay. I guess you have already gave in."

Then, she rushed toward me and tried to grab me. I kept dodging her attacks, but I couldn’t keep this up forever. I tried to find something to stop her, but luckily I spotted a rope nearby. After I'd  shoved her aside, I grabbed the ropes and tied up her legs. As she was tossing and turning on the ground, I apologized to her, "Sorry Fluttershy, but you will thank me later."

Finally, I'd manage to escape into the forest. I was just running for my life through the trees, until I stop and turned around. I have my last moment to see my home before I started heading to Canterlot. I swear to Celestia that I will fix all of this mess.





Time flew by as I was wandering through the woods. So far, there was no sign of any creatures nearby. Perhaps they're all hiding from this disaster. I couldn't blame them, I would've hide as well, but I have a job to do.

As I was trotting through the forest, I was wondering of what to expect when I arrive to Canterlot. I think that I'd already know that it would be swarmed by vamponies. I'm worried about is Princess Celestia alright at the castle. Finally, I rid the doubt off my mind and focus on my journey.

Suddenly, I heard noises from behind. I quickly turn around and there was nothing. I kept looking around the forest, making sure that I wasn't follow. I was about to ignores the noise and resume my mission, until I immediately spotted two pairs of eyes in a bush.

After I'd spotted them, I quickly ran away. As I was running, I saw their shadows hovering above me. I tried to lose them, but one of them tackle me. As I was held to the ground, an familiar voice spoken, "Howdy there, Rainbow."

I turned my head around and saw another one of my friends, Applejack, stood on top of me. Then, Rarity landed next to her and greeted as well. "Good to see you again, darling! You look absolutely delicious!"

"Applejack," I cried. "Rarity?!"

"Good job, girls!" I turned and spotted Twilight emerged from the shadow. "You caught her just in time."

"Twilight?! H-How did you escape from the supply room?"

"Uhhhhhh... I can teleport, Rainbow." I hit my forehead for not knowing that she could do that. After they had push me against the tree, they stood in front of me and smiled. "I should have known that you would made it this far. I'm always good at calculation and prediction."

"You're one clever mare, aren't ya?"

"Always am. Now, you have two choices, Rainbow Dash. You could tried to fight us and then lose, of course. Or... you could just surrender and let us drink you blood."

"What about your so called master, Twilight? Wouldn't it be mad if you drank my blood?"

"I have already spoken with him. He said that it would be alright as long that you're alive. Now, what's it going to be, Rainbow?"

I tried to figure out how to escape from them. If I tried to fight them head on, then they would probably bite me and I will become one of them. I definitely ain't picking the second choice.

Finally, I'd came up with a better plan to escape. "Alright," I said. "Alright. I give in. You girls can definitely suck my blood."

Twilight and the others were surprised by my choice. After she was looking back at Applejack and Rarity, she ask confused, "Just like that?"

"Eeyup," I nodded.

"You want us to suck your blood without a fight?"

"Yeah."

"Huh," Applejack said, "that's mighty kind of ya, sugarcube."

"Indeed," Rarity agreed.

Before I let them dive in, I ask them one last question. "Will it hurt," I asked.

"No," Twilight lied.

Finally, they leaned over to my neck with mouths wide open. Before they made contact, I quickly tosses them away and ran for my dear life. As I was running, I heard Twilight roaring my name in anger. I heard their flapping wings catching up to me. Luckily, I lure them towards a tree and crash right into it. Thanks to my stunt, I manage to find a place to hide.

As I was hiding, I heard them stopped at my position. I lean in to heard their conversation. "I can't believe you let her get away," Rarity yelled.

"Me," Applejack whined. "Ya the one who should have known she would pulled something like this!"

"Enough," Twilight ended their argument, "both of you! We all should have known that she would trick us."

"What are we going to do now," Rarity asks.

"It's simple. We head to Canterlot and inform master about this. Don't worry about Rainbow Dash. She won't be able to get into the castle. Canterlot is surrounded by so many guards and the guards were already informed about her. Trust me, she will be one of us. Whether she like it or not." Finally, they left.

Now, I know the condition of Canterlot. All thanks to Twilight and her blabber mouth. Although, it would be a little difficult to make my way through the guards and reach to the castle, but there's nothing that I can't handle. Finally, I resume pursuing my journey to Canterlot.
> Chapter 4
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I’ve been trotting through the forest for hours or maybe a day. I don't know the time because it's always night time. I was getting low on food and supplies and thought I was lost. Until, I had finally made it to Canterlot. I examined the kingdom’s areas from the hills, to see what I am up against. The castle gates and the cities are covered with vamponies guards. 

I tried to figure out how to get in there without getting caught. Suddenly, I heard noises from the woods and quickly hid in the bushes. I thought Twilight and the others were searching for me, but it was the guards patrolling. Then, an idea popped into my head. I could steal one of their armor sets, disguise myself as one of them, and enter the castle scot free.

Before my plan could begin, I needed to lure a female guard behind a bush and tied her up. After I'd spotted one, I began luring her by snapping some branches. When she gotten close enough, I quickly grabbed her and beat her until she was completely knocked out. I managed to knock her out for a short amount of time. I tied her up, stripped her from her armor, and put it on. After I'd hidden the vampony, I began heading to the kingdom.

As I was trotting towards the gates, I began get nervous thinking my plan is going to backfire. Also, hoping they wouldn’t examine me when I reached the gates. I didn't even know if they already noticed me by now. When I drew near the gates, I kept my twenty percent cooler image in check and blended in.

When I stopped in front of the gates, the guards saluted at me and I did it back. Just like that, they lowered the gate and let me in. I was surprised by the fact that those guards just let me in without checking me. Either they don't care what happens to one of their own or they're just plain stupid.

When they had lowered the gate, I saw the city was swarming with vamponies. I took a deep breath and went through the crowd. I was pretty nervous as I was trotting through the swarm. I was feeling good about this, until I spotted some guards searching through the vamponies confirming their identities. I don't know how, but  they passed me by.

To avoid getting caught, I sneak through the alley. Suddenly, I was grabbed by a mysterious cloaked stallion. He covered my mouth as he was dragging me into a house. After he shuts the door, I separate from him and ready for a fight. “You want a piece of me,” I yelled. “Then, come at me, bra! Come at me!”

“Rainbow Dash,” a familiar voice spoke. The stallion removed his hood and it's Shining Armor. “Is that you?”

“Sh-Shining Armor?! Y-You're not one of them! I'm so glad that-”

I stop myself before I gone near him. I remembered my last incident with Twilight and back away. Shining Armor was shock when I drew a dagger towards him. “Stay back,” I yelled.

“Rainbow Dash? What are you doing?”

“Drop the act, Armor! I already know that trick! You're using a spell to cover your real form!”

“What are you talking about?!”

“Don't play dumb with-”

Suddenly, Shining Armor his sword towards me. “Rainbow Dash,” he demanded, “drop your weapon! Now!”

“Or what?! You're going to kill me and suck all of my blood!”

“What?! You think that I’m a-”

“Shut up! You're a vampony and I gonna prove it!”

I tried to figure out how to make him drive out of his fake form. I know that every vamponies desire to drink blood. I just cut my right hoof before Shining Armor could stop me.

“Rainbow Dash,” he cried as he tossed my blade to the side. “What's wrong with you?!” He examine my cut and lure me to his medical supply kit. After he’d bandage up my hoof, he shook his head at me. “Why would you do that to yourself, Rainbow?! If I was a vampire, then I would've suck your blood in an instant!”

It was relief that he wasn't one of them. I should be ashamed of myself as well. I could've kill my best friend’s brother over one mistake. “I am so sorry,” I apologize.

“Why do you think that I was one of them,” he asks.

I shouldn't have told him the truth, but he's going to figure out sooner or later. “Twilight,” I answered. “When I was surrounded by those monsters, she saved my life. Sadly, I’d figured out that she's one of them. That's why I thought you were one of them.”

He was shocked from hearing what happened to his sister. “They got… Twily…” he cried. I nodded. He fell to his knees and started to sob. I comforted him while he was crying. I couldn't blame him for what happened to Twilight and what she did to me.

After he’d calmed down, I told him about my mission. “Shining Armor,” I grabbed his attention. “I think I know how to end this.” He tilted his head. “Celestia sent a letter that she might found a cure to save everypony, including Twilight. She needs my help to find it and she's at the castle. She shielded it with her magic to keep them out and let us in.”

“Are you sure that she'd found the cure,” he asked.

“I'm not sure, but we have to take this chance.”

“Even if it's true, then how are we going to get to castle while there's so many of them swarming the kingdom.”

“Simple. We dress up as the guards. I'm going to get an armor set for you, so we can stick together. Do you got any rope and a empty room to put the guard in?” He nodded. “Good. Wait here until I come back.”

After I'd exited the house, I tried to find any nearby guards. Luckily, a stallion one was trotting by. As I trotted beside him, I told him, “Hey, I think I have spotted some fresh meat nearby.” I caught his attention. “Do you want to help me catch it?” He nodded.

After I'd drawn him down to the alley, I just straight up attack the guy. I grab him by the neck and repeatedly punching him in the face. Finally, I knock out the guard as he went down to the ground. I knock on the door to call Shining Armor, so he could help me drag the guy inside.

After we had stripped him from his armor, we locked the guard in a empty room. I waited for Shining Armor to fit into the guard armor perfectly. After he had his armor on, we packed our supplies and weapons. I was trying to find my dagger, but Shining was examining it. “There's hamon on this dagger,” he said.

“What's that supposed to mean,” I ask. “Is it bad?”

“No. The hamon on the bottom of this dagger means it can cut through anything, even bones. This blade was made from hardened materials. I wonder how they got a hold of this?” He handed it back to me.

“So, how did it all happened,” I asked him.

“Me and Cadance were just visiting Canterlot for a while, until we heard screaming. When we headed to the balcony, we saw so many ponies were attacking each other. Me and the guards were trying to hold them back, but there was too many of them. I was the only one who escaped. The others were infected or killed during the massacre. I lost saw Cadance at the castle. I hope she's alright. What about you?”

“I didn't even seen it happen. I was in a accident before it happened. A lightning bolt struck my wings during one of my performances. I was given a sleeping pill before it started. When I woke up, I only seen the aftermath. I saw my friends had become vamponies. I wish I could have saved them. If it wasn't for that dumb accident-”

“Ha! It wasn't your fault, Rainbow Dash. None of this is your fault. It just… happened so fast. We didn't stand a chance. But we will turn this around when we reach to the castle.”

“Thanks, Shining Armor. You ready to head out?”

“Ready as I’ll ever be.”

Finally, we exited the house and began heading towards the castle. Shining Armor and I stay together as we’re passing through the swarm of vamponies. We keep our distance from the guards, to avoid being checked. As we pushed through the swarm, we were getting close to the castle.

Suddenly, I stop and spot my old teammates, the Wonderbolts. They weren't one of them, nor ponies. They are corpses. The only bolts I could see among the other corpses were Fleetfoot, Soarin, and most importantly Spitfire. Their drained bodies were laid on the sidewalk. I was about to head toward their bodies, but Shining Armor placed his hoof on my shoulder and shook his head. I listened to him and resume our journey.

We were almost at the castle, so close to sanctuary at last. Until, a scream went off down another alley. It was Twilight. Shining Armor bought her trick and rushed to her aid. I tried to stop him, but he ignored me. I chased him down the alley and tried to drawn him away from the trap.

When we got to Twilight’s position, she was trapped by Applejack and Rarity. I tried to warn Shining Armor about her dirty trick, but he rushed to her aid. He used his magic to toss the others away from his sister. “TWILY,” he cried while he wrapped her in his arms.

“Shiny,” she cried as well.

“I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!!”

I turned around and spotted Applejack and Rarity were getting back up as more are swarming in. I pulled my dagger, pushed Shining Armor aside, and aimed at Twilight. “Get back,” I yelled at my corrupted friend. “We're leaving, Shining Armor-”

Suddenly, Shining Armor punch me in the face, sent me falling to the ground. As my mouth was bleeding, he picks me up and holds me up against the wall. “YOU LIAR,” he yelled angrily towards me. “YOU TOLD ME THAT TWILY WAS ONE OF THEM!!”

“She is,” I cried. “She's tricking you, Shining Armor! She already knows that we were heading to the castle and-”

“LIAR!!! YOU KNEW SHE WASN’T INFECTED AND TRIED TO-”

He screamed in pain as Twilight bit into her brother neck. I quickly pushed her away from him, but that wasn't going to help Shining Armor. So much blood pouring from his neck. 

I noticed that the other vamponies were closing in on us. I quickly carry him on my back and hurry to nearby shelter. We were about to enter into another house, until a bunch of them grabs Shining Armor lower body. I wraps my hooves around him and  tried to pull him inside, but there were too many of them.

I used all of my strength to save him, until he drawn his hoof on my face. “Rainbow Dash,” he said with his dying breath, “let me go.”

“No,” I refused. “No! Shining Armor, I won't let you go.”

“Rainbow… I'm bitten… I'm infected… Let me go…”

“Please,” I cried as tears running down my face. “Don't make me do this!”

“Rainbow… Go on without me… I want you… to save Equestria… P-Please…”

Then, more and more are pulling him outside as I tried to hold on to him. “Tell my wife… Tell Cadance… I love her…” Finally, they manage to drag him outside and as his last act he shuts the door.

I exit the house while tears are dripping down my face. I can't believe I left Shining Armor behind to be fed on by those monsters. I don't care if he was infected, I just can't leave my friends behind. I was so close to the castle entrance and rushed towards it.

Until, Twilight landed in front of me, blocking me from my destination. As I heard more of them heading towards me, I warned my friend, “Move Twilight! Or you're going to regret it!”

“Come to your senses,” she convince me, “Rainbow. Do you really want to end this gift? The gift of immortality. Which means we can live forever.”

“And then what?! We become slaves to one thing who is causing all of this?! Sending mindless ponies to merciless infect and consume others?! You call that a gift!”

“Dash! This is what's best for Equestria! I want to make it best for our friends!”

“Our friends are suffering, Twilight! Applejack and Rarity had become evil like you! Starlight and Fluttershy are mindless slaves! Pinkie Pie is-” I stopped and knowing that Pinkie hasn't changed a bit. “Well, she is still Pinkie Pie, of course. Your own brother was feed upon by those monsters! The Wonderbolts, my own teammates, are dead!”

“Sacrifices must be made in order to organize this peaceful system!”

“Peaceful?! You and so many others has taken the lives of innocent ponies and turned them into monsters, without letting them have a choice!”

“Enough with the facts, Dash! My master is bringing peace to Equestria and I'm aiding him in accomplishing it! So many wanted to kill him, but I refused and killed them instead!”

I gasped from what she just said. “You... killed innocent… ponies.”

“I destroy them because of their insolence! Don't make me destroy you!”

I was heartbroken by her threats towards me. “I don't know who you are anymore,” I cried. “You're not the real Twilight Sparkle that I know and love! The real Twilight that I know and love is kind, loving, smart, patient, and the princess of friendship! You're not her! You're a monster! Controlling my best friend!”

“You have two choices, Rainbow Dash! Join us or die!”

“Sorry for disappointing you but i make my own options!”

I rushed towards her in full speed. She charges to me as well. She lowered her horn to stab me with it. We were about to make contact, until I jump over her instead. Finally, I made it to the castle.

Twilight and so many vamponies rushes towards and tried to kill me, but were stopped by the shield. I lowered my head when I seen three of my closest friends wanted to devour me. I turned around and began to march into the castle on my way  to complete my mission by meeting with Celestia. I swore to my friends, to the entire kingdom, that I would fix this.

> Chapter 5
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I’d entered the castle, I was expecting to see a welcoming committee. Sadly, there wasn't any pony inside, including the royal guards. As I was exploring the castle, the hallways were isolated. I even checked every room for any survivors, but everyone of them were completely empty. I feared that I was the first pony who made it to the castle alive.

Right now, I needed to find Princess Celestia and help her find the cure. I headed to the throne room, hoping she would be there. Sadly, when I entered the room, it was abandoned as well. There was no sign of the princess. I believed that Princess Celestia was dead, along with the cure to save everypony.

I refused to believe that it was too late. “PRINCESS CELESTIA,” I cried out. PRINCESS LUNA!! PRINCESS CADANCE!! WHERE ARE YOU?!!” After there was no response, I fell to the floor and cried till I ran out of tears. I promised to all of my friends that I would save them, but I failed.

Suddenly, I heard Celestia voice from behind, “You rang.”

I was so happy to hear her loving voice. “Celestia,” I cried with joy. Unfortunately, when I picked myself up and turned to them, I couldn't handle their appearance. I found Celestia, Luna, and Cadance were one of them. “Celestia… Luna… Cadance… you're… you’re-”

“One of them,” Celestia finished for her. “Indeed, my dear Rainbow. For we are vampires.”

“H-How?! How could this happened?!”

“Our husband has made us this way. He loves us so much, that he has turned us into his kind.”

“Are you talking about the one who caused all of this?!”

“Yes.”

“D-Don't y’all see what he has done?! He turned y’all into vamponies so he can stop you from finding the cure!”

Then, they all laughed at what I said. “My dear pony,” Princess Luna laughed. “There was no cure to begin with.”

I was shocked after hearing what she just said. “What do you mean,” I ask confused.

“We made up finding the cure so we could draw thou and the elements of harmony here. Our dear husband has told us that thou and thou friends will stop his brilliant plan.”

“Even though,” Celestia finished, “we haven't drawn in any pony. We have been waiting for two days in starvation. But now you're here, it was worth it.”

I was heartbroken from my discovery of another lie. I just made it all the way to Canterlot for nothing. I let my friends, my family, and everypony down. Most importantly, if it wasn't for me, Shining Armor would've been alive right now.

I sat down and started to cry. “I MADE IT ALL THE WAY OVER HERE FOR A FALSE HOPE,” I cried “I REALLY THOUGHT THAT I WOULD FIND A WAY TO FREE EVERYPONY FROM THIS NIGHTMARE!! TURNS OUT IT WAS ALL BUT A LIE!! I HAVE FAILED EVERYPONY!!”

I felt Cadance wings wrapped around me and nuzzles my head. “It's alright Rainbow,” she comfort me. “You didn't make it here for nothing. You made it here so you can be with us. We can be together forever by turning into one of us.”

After I'd wiped off the tears, I responded with a weak tone, “But I don't want to become a vampony. That's the reason why I came all the way over here.”

“Please,” Luna pleads, “listen to us, Rainbow Dash. What would have happened if you had been killed, which means leaving your friends all alone? It would be difficult to part with them. However, if you become one of us, then you will be with them forever.”

“Indeed,” Celestia added. “We have lost those who grew connection to, because we're immortals. However, our husband has turned everypony into immortals as well. This means that everypony will live forever.”

“But that would also means that everypony would be enslaved and abused by that monster,” I added.

“You're missing the point. You have been given a chance to live forever. You and your friends friendship will last forever. Please, accept our offer of a lifetime.”

Then, I separated myself from the princesses and refused their offer. “I'm sorry your majesties, but the answer is still no. If y’all refuse to find the cure, then I will!”

The princesses look at each other and nodded. “I'm sorry Rainbow Dash,” Celestia raise her voice, “but we will not allow you to do that! We swear to our husband that we shall turn everypony into vampires! Either join us or die!”

As they're ready their attack, I tried to come up with a plan to escape from them. Luckily, it pops into my head and yelled, “TWILIGHT!! HOW DID YOU GET THROUGH THE SHIELD?!!”

After they quickly turned around, I rushed out of the room and tried to hide. As I was running for my life, I heard the rageful roars echoing through the halls. I quickly got into the armory and shut the door. 

I already know that they will go through every room until they find me. I quickly put on a set of royal guard armor and stand still. As they were entering the armory, the princesses searched for me. It was going fine, until, Luna drew closer to me. I tried so hard to stand still while she sniffed me. Luckily, Celestia called her and she exited the room.

I waited in the room for a couple of minutes, making sure they weren't around. After a small amount of time has passed, I exited the room in search of an exit. Finally, I found the exit and headed straight for it. I was about to open the door, until an shadow cast over me.

When I turned around slowly, I found Princess Celestia formed a evil smile at me. Before I know what happened, she tackled and dragged me to the others. I tried to escape from them, but her magic gotten a hold of me. After the Alicorn magic faded away, Luna and Cadance held me down as she leaned to my ear.

“Just relax,” Celestia whispers. “We’re not going to hurt you. Imagine us giving you love bites.”

She slowly put her fangs to my neck and was about to suck my blood. The jokes is on them, I don't need my hoofs to fight. I gave Celestia the good old face slam, causing her to fall on her back. Then, I gave one to Luna and punch Cadance in the face. “Sorry,” I apologize to the princesses.

I was about to escape, until Cadance used her magic to trip me. She then trotted towards me and furiously stepped on my injured wings. I screamed in pain, until she covers my mouth. She drawn to my face and licks my left cheek. “I bet your blood will taste like pure rainbow,” she whispered to my ear.

Luckily, I manage to break free and tackle her before she could bite me. As I held her down, Cadance gave out an angry hiss at me. “What,” I told her, “you didn't see that coming?!”

Suddenly, I was blasted in the back by the other two, sending me crashing into the wall. After I'd turned around, I immediately spotted Luna heading towards me. I dodge her attack and was about to punch her, but she scratched my face with her sharp horn. I manage to push her away, until Celestia tackled me.

She leaned over and licked the blood from my scratch. “Mmm,” she hummed. “Your blood tastes so good. Can't wait to suck it all out of you!”

Then, I quickly pushed her away and started to run. They were right behind me and closing in. Luckily, I manage to lure them into a wall and hurried towards the exit. I was about to open the door, until it stayed true and I found that it was locked. I began hitting the door until it's bock broke and popped open. They were getting closer and closer to me, sending fear down my spine. Finally, I had manage to break through the door.

Unfortunately, I was about to escape from the princesses, until an vampony jumped at me and driving its fangs into my left shoulder. When I pushed it away, I found Shining Armor alive, but sadly as one of them. I stared at my bitten shoulder as blood dripping from it. “You,” I cried. “You’ve… bitten… me!”

“Which means that you will be one of us,” he laughed.

Then, I had a headache and grew dizzy from the bite. I tried to get away from Shining Armor, until the princesses stood right behind me and smiled. I choose to run down the halls as fast as I could. Suddenly, my whole body turned numb and I fell to the ground. I started to breathe really hard as tears streamed down my face.

After they reach to me, Celestia lay down in front of me and dragged me to her chest. “Don’t worry my dear,” she whispered to my ear. “You will soon be one of us. Depends how much blood we drink out of you.

Finally, she drove her fangs into my neck, causing me to cry. Next, Luna and Cadance joined and had bitten both of my shoulders. Shining Armor also joined by piecing his fangs into my stomach. I was weeping in total fear and pain as they were sucking my blood.

I have finally failed to save Equestria. I let my friends, my family, and everypony down. I cried out the names of those who I have failed. “APPLEJACK!! RARITY!! PINKIE PIE!! STARLIGHT!! FLUTTERSHY!! SCOOTALOO!! TWILIGHT!! I'm… so… sorry… I AM SORRY!!” Finally, I had lost the will to live.


> Chapter 6
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

After I’d awoken from that horror show, I found myself in a very dark chamber. I found a collar around my neck and it chains attached to the walls. I tried to break free from it with all of my might, but sadly it didn't work. When I’d finally gave up, I heard someone lurking in the shadow. “Who's there,” I yelled. “I’m not afraid of you! SHOW YOURSELF!!”

“It's about time you wake up, Rainbow Dash,” Shining Armor revealed himself from the shadows.

“Shining Armor? How did-” I stopped and remember what he did to me back at the castle. “HA!! YOU KILL ME BACK THERE!! WHAT THE HAY!!”

“Really, Rainbow Dash. If I really did terminate you, you wouldn’t be breathing right now.”

“Then, why am I still alive?”

Twilight appeared by her brother side and answered, “Because of this, Rainbow.”

Then, Twilight used her magic to unwrap my bandaged wings. I thought it would be very painful when they're unwrapped, but I felt no pain. I was confused why my wings didn't hurt anymore, until the flashes of lightning revealed them. I was shocked by the presence of bat wings on both of my sides. I slowly drawn my hoof to my mouth and I felt sharp fangs.

“No,” I cried. “No! No! No! No! No! NO!! I’m… I'm… I’m-”

“One of us,” Twilight smiled.

“Thou is not yet one of us,” Princess Luna cut in.

I’d turn around and spotted Luna and Cadance appeared. They had lightened every candles in the chamber, helping me to see everything clearly. “Wha…” I said confused. “What do you mean?”

Princess Cadance stepped forward and answered, “We need your mind erase and replace them like everypony else.”

“And we see thou spirit is still functional,” Luna unpleasant tone. “So, we need to eliminate it.”

“But I want to keep my own mind,” I pleaded. “Y’all can’t take it away from me! Y’ALL JUST CAN’T!!

Suddenly, I was frighten when a giant bat wing grab me from behind. I turn my head and spotted Princess Celestia nuzzling me. “Oh Rainbow Dash,” she said in a loving tone. “Don’t be afraid, my dear. It’s the only way for you to truly become a vampire. To become one of us.”

I shook my head and pulled myself away from her. “NO,” I shouted, which causes gasps from everypony. “There’s no way I’ll ever become one of you. I DON’T WANT TO BECOME A VAMPONY!!”

“Rainbow please,” Twilight tried to convince me again. “We want you to become one of us. I want you to.” I looked away from my friend, but she drawn my face toward her. “If you truly are my friend. If you truly are a element of loyalty, then you would join us-”

“ENOUGH TWILIGHT,” I ended her act. “Would you cut the crap already! There's nothing in Equestria that would ever convince me to join you and your master! I would rather die than being a mindless monster!”

Then, they all shook their heads in disappointment. “Rainbow Dash,” Shining Armor annoyed by my refusal. “You need to be careful on what you wish for. We always wanted to devour one of our own.” 

Then, Celestia smacked me across the room and held me against the wall with her magic. I tried to fight it, but it was pointless. “Sorry my little pony,” she apologized, “but you brought this upon yourself. You should've accepted our offer while you had the chance.”

“Prepare to meet thou demise, Rainbow Dash,” Luna yelled.

All of them are closing in on me while they're drooling. I couldn't do nothing to escape from being eaten. I just close my eyes and prepare to meet my faith. I actually believe that my best friend and her family were about to eat me alive.

Then suddenly, a stallion voice shouted, “HALT!!” After Twilight and the others obeyed, they all quickly bow down to their master. Finally, the evil mastermind, the one who causes all of this, revealed himself. He wear a red armor with a black cape. His skin is dry and old. He has a orchestra looking hairstyle, evil red eyes, and a monstrous black bat wings as well. 

“Who. . .” I ask frightened by his appearance. “Who are you?”

“You may have heard of me. I’m the new ruler of Equestria and the master of all vampires. You may call me… Dracula.” He turned to Celestia and order, “My dear, please let her go.”

“As you wish my love,” she obeyed and release me from her magic.

At long last, I had finally met the monster face to face. “Why,” I cried. “Why would you turn everypony in Equestria into vamponies?!”

“If you haven't noticed, I’ve been here for centuries. I was a legendary phantom of the night. Sucking the sweetest blood of my victims and making them into my slaves. Until, my legacy was end by the princesses. Somehow, Princess Celestia and Luna heard of my existence, hunt me down, and destroy me. Or so they thought. Those two haven't known my weaknesses and failed to kill me.

“I have reawaken hundred of years ago and waiting patiently for the perfect time for my vengeance. Before I could begin my vengeance, I have gather dozen of my slaves to assist me in my master plan. I order them to attack the citizens of Canterlot, so we may gather more allies to our side. After we have eliminated the guards, I have sneak inside of the castle and suck the blood of the princesses. 

“Before I can grow comfort of my successful vengeance, my new wives had warn me about the Elements of Harmony. So, I had invaded your hometown and turn your friends and loved ones into my servants. After I have dispose of the main threats, I have spread my infections throughout the entire Equestria. Now, every single pony has been into my pets.

“Sadly, I recently discovered that the Element of Loyalty is not one of us. That's why I’d sent Twilight and her friends to seek and bring you to me. If you haven't noticed, that it was I who ordered my wives to send that false hope message to your friend. It was the only way to drawn you out of hiding. Now, I am so relief to hear that you're one of us.”

“That's it,” I ask confused. “That's your master plan?! Wasting your precious time seeking me?! Yeah, that sounds smart!”

“Foolish pony,” he laughed at me. “You really think that's all I'm going to do? My pets needs blood in order to stay alive. Soon, I shall order my army to invade other kingdoms and capture them. Every last one of them shall be used as our livestock.”

“Yeah, nice try pal! But there are millions of them who have weapons to defend themselves! There's no way you could probably defeat them!”

“Don't be ridiculous, my dear. Blades and arrows will never kill a vampire.” Dracula pulled out my dagger and slowly pears it through his chest. After he had pulled out, the wound just heal quickly. I was so surprised by another fact about vamponies. “You see. Nothing can kill a vampire. Now you see… the whole world shall be ruled by the vampires!”

“You won't get away this!”

“I already have, my dear.” He trotted towards me and lifted my chin. “As for you on the other hoof,” he smiled at me. “I’ll give you an special offer.”

“And what's that,” I ask curiously.

“I won't get rid of your mind…” Then, he drawn me to his chest and kiss me on the cheek. “If you agree to be my fourth wife.”

As he wasn't looking, I slowly grabbed my dagger from his pocket. After I have reclaim my weapon, I shove him away from me and shouted furiously, “NO WAY CREEP!!” Everypony gasps from my refusal to the headmaster. “You have turned everypony into mindless monsters! You have turned the princesses into your whores! And most importantly, you have turned my best friends against me! After everything you have done, you expect me to be your wife?! YOU ARE SICK!! I RATHER DIE THAN BEING WITH YOU!!”

Dracula was disappointed from my refusal to his disgusting offer. He lay his hoof on my shoulder while shook his head. Suddenly, he slapped me across the face. After I had picked myself up, I stare angrily at the demon as blood was dripped from my nose.

“You disappoint me,” he said calmly. As he was trotted away, he drawn his attention to Twilight and the others. “Kill her!”

Then, Twilight and the others roared as they were charged at me. Luckily, I pulled my dagger out, cut the collar off me, and dodge their attack. My best friend tried to blast me with her magic, but I dodge them as well. Since I have working wings again, I flew towards her and shove her against the wall. “Sorry Twilight,” I apologize to her.

My next opponent is Shining Armor. He levitated three swords around him and tried to slash me. Luckily, I use my dagger to block each one of his attacks. When I found an opening, I rushes towards him and gave him a good old fashion uppercut. “Sorry Shining Armor.”

Sadly, I let my guard down by allowing the princesses to blast me from behind. As I picked myself up, the princesses marches towards me. “Celestia, Luna, Cadance,” I called their names. “Get out of my way or you will feel my wrath!”

“Is that a treat,” Cadance laughed.

“It's a warning!”

The three of them giggle at my bravery. “Don't make us laugh, Rainbow Dash,” Celestia laugh. “There's three of us… and only one of you.”

“And besides,” Luna added. “We're alicorns and thou are a pegasus. Thou don't stand a chance.”

I examine my bat wings for a moment before I responded. “You're right,” I agreed to their facts. “I am outnumber. I may not stand a chance against all three of you at once. But you're wrong about one thing. I'm not a pegasus anymore… I'm a vampony!”

Finally, I began charges straight towards the princesses in full speed. When I got close to them, I spread my bat wings and flew over them. I already know that they will chase me down, so I lure them outside of the castle and into the sky. After they've lost sight of me, I quickly hid inside of a cloud and tried not to make a noise.

Then suddenly, the princesses landed on the exact same cloud I was hiding in. Luckily, none of them landed on any of my body parts. “How are we suppose to find the rogue pony,” Luna whined. “Thou could be hiding in any of these clouds!”

“It's simple, my dear sister,” Celestia explained to her sister. “We will split up. That way we can find the little pony faster. And remember… show no mercy!” Finally, they left.

I need to find a way to get rid of the princesses, so I can fight Dracula without any interference. Sadly, there isn't enough time to think; I need to act. I'm just going to sneak up on each one of them and knock them out.

I’d dashed to any nearby clouds stealthily, to avoid attention. Suddenly, I stopped when I spotted Princess Luna close by. I was about to attack her, until Celestia voice came from behind. “Don't even think about it, my dear!”

Her magic pulls my tail and thrown me towards another cloud. After I crash softly to the cloud, Princess Celestia held me down from behind. “Poor and pathetic Rainbow Dash,” she laughed at my defeat. “I can't believe that you were so stupid enough to let your guard down! And you actually think you could take us down one by one?! Adorable!”

“You're right,” I agree with her. “I was stupid enough to let my guard down. But do you know what's even more stupid…”

“And what pretale would it be?”

“You holding me down on a cloud!”

Finally, I drove into the cloud, which freeing myself from her might. Then, I speeded through it and gave Celestia a furious uppercut. I gently lay her knocked out body on the soft cloud.

Then suddenly, Luna knock me away from her sister from behind. Before I could be given a chance to get up, she tossed me off the cloud. Jokes on her, I went back up and kick her in the face full speed.

After I had taken care of the royal sisters, I need to find Cadance before I could face Dracula. “Halt,” Twilight voice interrupted from behind. I turned around and face my upset evil friend. “You disappointed me, Rainbow Dash. You finally became one of us, but you still defy our master!”

“He's not my master,” I yelled at her. “I’ll never serve an evil tyrant! I only side with the good. Even if I’m all alone, I will never surrender nor give up my free will!”

“I’m afraid there's no way I could convince you to join us. Fine then! Looks like we have to end you before you can attack our master.”

“What do you mean we-”

Suddenly, I was stabbed through the chest by Cadance horn. She thrown me across the cloud as blood was spilling out of my hole. I was about to get back up, until she bitten and tear my right shoulder with her fangs.

As I was lying on the cloud, I was panting heavily from the hole in my chest and my torn shoulder. However, I felt my chest starting to feel better. I’d looked over and found it regenerating from the wound. I just remembered that vamponies can regenerate from anything. Sadly, my shoulder wasn't healing at all.

“You're wondering why your shoulder isn't healing,” Cadance explained. “It's because you were bitten by a vampire. If a vampire has been bitten by another vampire fangs, then it would take hours for it to heal. I learned that the hard way.”

I slowly picked myself up and stood tall before my friend and her sister. “Twilight… Cadance…” I cried both of their names while I'm breathing hardly from the wound. “I’m… giving y’all… a final warning… let me end Dracula… or… I'm gonna… beat the crap out of you two!”

They both laughed at my weaken threat. “Just give up already,” Twilight yelled at me. “Look at you shoulder, Dash! You can't even defeat a fragile insect! There no possible way you could ever defeat us both!”

“Rainbow Dash,” Cadance called my name. “As third wife of Dracula, I'm giving you your final warning. Surrender and join us… or die.”

I’d stood my ground while ignoring the pain from my mess up shoulder. “Sorry to disappoint ya,” I said to them, “but I wouldn't give up that easily. I will defeat and end that vampony demon! And none of you can stop me!”

The two sisters shook their heads in disappointment and roared in their Equestrian voices, “THEN PREPARE TO DIE!!!

Twilight and Cadance lowered their sharp horns while charging straight at me. I stood tall while they're heading towards me, waiting for the right position to take them down. When they have gotten close enough, I jump over and push them through the clouds. As I was drawing them down to the surface, I grabbed hold of their necks, preventing them from escaping.

Suddenly, Twilight manage to turn towards me and jabbed her fangs into my neck. I cried in pain as she was gnawing my neck. To make it worse, Cadance did the same thing to my leg. Nevertheless, I ignored the pain and speeded them to the ground. 

Finally, I manage crashes them, including myself, to the hard ground. When we made contact, I felt so much of my bones cracked from the collision. We even crashes into trees and brushes, which really hurt so much. The crash finally stops when our bodies landed on the grass.

After witnessing the most painful experience, I manage to pick myself up while ignoring the pain. I can feel my bones slowly healing from the devastating collision. Luckily, I manage to knock out Cadance from the crash. Sadly, Twilight body was nowhere to be found.

Then suddenly, my best friend blasts me from behind. When I turned around, she was completely mad at my rebellion against her and Dracula. Without hesitation, she kept blasting at me rapidly until I was brought down. Finally, she manage to weaken me, but not beaten me.

Then, I’d fallen to the ground and remain still as her hoof steps is getting closer. “What kind of a loyal friend are you,” she yelled at you. “We have been given a chance to let our friendship to last forever, but you just couldn't accept it! My master wants to bring peace and happiness to Equestria, but you're ruining everything! Why can't you admit that this is what best for our friendship?! Well, guess what… we can live in this perfect world… without you. Goodbye, Rainbow Dash!” 

I was ready to release my final blow against my best friend. I hesitate at first about hurting my best friend, until she said these exact words that triggered my anger. “We were never friends to begin with, you filthy horse! I should have known that you were always and always will be worthless!”

Finally, I release all of my strength into one punch to her stomach. Thanks to my rageful punch, I manage to knock her out. Sadly, I was completely hurt from what my best friend just said. I already know that she wasn't herself. Nevertheless, I was really hurt after hearing it coming out of her mouth. I was also ashamed by hurting my friends and love ones in order to stay alive.

Finally, I took a deep breath and focus on my main objective. I must stop and kill Dracula before his invasion begins. I swear that I’ll make him pay for everything he has done to my friends, to the princesses, and to Equestria. After my wounds are completely healed from the crash, I head out and prepare for the final battle against that demon.
> Chapter 7
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

After I’d dealt with Twilight and her family, I searched for Dracula around the castle. Luckily, I spotted that monster on the balcony. When I landed a couple of feet away from him, I noticed a creepy smirk on his prick face.

“So you were expecting me,” I asked that stupid vampony.

“Why of course,” Dracula responded while circling me. “So, I see you eliminated your very dear friends in cold blood?”

“In your dreams. I managed to beaten the crap out of them.”

“Interesting. You really are soft, aren't you?”

“I maybe a lot of things, but I am not soft!”

“Oh,” he tilted his head. “And why is that?”

“Because… I'm going to kill you, ya old bag!”

“You will try, my dear.”

Finally, I dashed towards him and threw a punch, but he turned into black smoke before my hoof could made contact. “Nice try,” he mocked me from behind. After he scared me, I quickly tried to kick his hideous face, but he turned into smoke again. “Are you a filly or a little girl? Oh, wait. YOU ARE BOTH!!” As his annoying laughter echoed in my head, I furiously kept throwing punches at him and his stupid smoke.

As I was catching my breath, I began trying  to figure out how to lay a single punch on this freak. Then, I just realized that he kept reappearing right behind me every time I threw a punch. Then, I threw another punch at him, causing him to turn into smoke again. When he had reappeared right behind me, I quickly turned and punched him straight in his stomach. 

Dracula stumbled back up as he groaned in pain. “THAT IS IT,” he roared in anger. He took a deep breath and resumed calmly, “I’m done playing games with you, mare. This time your stubbornness will be your downfall!”

“You can try pal,” I laughed. “You maybe a thousand years old, but you still don't stand a chance.”

Then, we both began to charge at each other. When I pulled out my dagger, he used his dark magic to conjure up an evil looking sword. When we had gotten close enough, we began to duel each other. We both dueled with our full speed, but neither of us laid a single scratch on each other.

We separated from each other to catch our breath. “You fight well. . . ,” he commented on my skills, but then added, “. . .for a filly.”

“Wish I could say the same thing for you,” I laughed.

“What do you mean?!”

“I don't know. I was expecting more from an asshole!”

Dracula growled from my insult and then charged straight at me roaring in anger. When he’d gotten within a hairsbreadth to me, he almost bit  me in the neck. Luckily, I managed to dodge his attack and proceeded to punch him repeatedly in the face. Dracula began another onslaught of attacks. While I was dodging his other attacks, he roared while he was slashing his sword, “I WILL TEAR  YOUR LIMBS OUT OF THEIR SOCKETS YOU ANNOYING PESTICIDE!!”

“Keep talking,” I yawned, mocking him. “I always yawn when I'm interested.”

“ARE YOU MOCKING ME?!!”

“I think so.” Then, I backed away and flew straight at him for my awesome attack. “Hey, let's play house! You’ll be the door…” Before I could finish, I suddenly stopped right in front of him and punched him across the face. “...and I’ll slam it.”

As he was picking himself up, I kept on insulting that loser. “Look like you're having a hard time, pal. Ha! How about you take a vacation? I know a perfect place just for you. It's called Club Dead!”

He’d finally pick himself back up and yelled in anger, “I SHALL RIP OUT YOUR ORGANS FOR THESE PATHETIC INSULTS!!”

He charged straight at me with murder in his eyes and because I was too busy taunting him he tackled me over the edge . I managed  to push him off before he could do anything else. Then, I flew away at  full speed, but he gave chase and was beginning to catch up to me. When he’d gotten right above me, he dove in and jabbed his fangs into my left shoulder. 

After I managed to kick him off me, I started to become dizzy. I looked over my bitten shoulder and noticed that my blood was turning black. Suddenly, I began to cough up black blood. “Wha-” I spoke with a weak voice. “What did you do to me?”

“Oh,” Dracula feigned surprise. “You didn't know? If a normal vampire bites another, it will take time for the wounds to heal. However, if a supreme vampire, just as myself, bites a normal vampire… well… that's a different story.” He formed a sinister grin.

“What are you talking about?”

“The reason why you're coughing up black blood it's because I have poisoned you.” I was shocked to learn about another vampony weakness. “You will die in about twenty five minutes!”

“Twenty five minutes is all I need to kill you… once and for all!”

As I spoke, I charged straight at him and throw a punch, but he faded away into smoke. He kept taunting me by reappearing around me faster than I could react. Suddenly, he bit me again in the neck. After I’d pushed him away, I began coughing up a huge amount of blood. To make matters worse, my whole body started to  to shut down because of the poison. I was then smacked in the face, which sent  me falling through the sky.

Luckily, I manage to land on a cloud. Sadly, thanks to the second bite, the poison was weakening my entire body. I was trying to think up a plan but the pain made it nearly impossible to think. Eventually I came up a foolproof plan to defeat Dracula, but it was suicide. “I don’t have much of a choice, but I will do anything it takes to save Equestria and my friends!” I thought, furrowing my brow in determination.

When I spotted Dracula flying down to where I had dropped, I quickly hid inside of the cloud and waited for him to pass by. When I heard his wings flap right next to my cloud, I dashed out of the cloud and use my dagger to cut his wings off. I grabbed a hold of him before he could start to fall and began to dive as fast as I could. He tried to bite my neck in an effort to make me let go, but I ignored his bites and refused to let go. 

Suddenly, he broke free from my legs and grabbed hold of my neck. “What a pathetic plan,” he laughed. “Do you really believe that you can defeat me by smashing me to the ground in this speed?!”

“Who says that this is my full speed,” I laughed at his confidence.

Then, we broke the sound barrier. As we felt  the waves flowing through our skins, Dracula realized  my master plan. “WHAT ARE YOU-” I cut him off  by doing something nopony else could, the Sonic Rainboom. Once I had reached the speed necessary to pull it off, I sent us both smashing into the ground, a brilliant explosion of rainbow light spreading through the sky behind us.





I awoke from the collision with the ground and the explosion. My entire body wracked with pain and the poison was still weakening me. To make matters worse, I felt an extreme pain in my lower left leg. When looked down to see the cause my leg, I nearly fainted when I saw that there was a large wooden spike driven straight through it. It probably happened when we collided with a tree after the Sonic Rainboom.

Then, I quickly grabbed my blade and bit down hard on it handle. I didn’t want to hurt myself even more. The only way to make the pain stop was  by doing it the hard way. I slowly lifted my crippled leg and slammed it into the ground, pushing out of my leg. I cried out in pain and my eyes began to water as I started to bleed profusely from the hole in my leg.

I rested on the ground as my tears dripped from my eyes. As my body lay  still, I could feel my wounds from the crash slowly healing. “I shouldn’t be resting right now. That crash wouldn’t have killed Dracula, and I have to stop him,” I thought.

I tried to stand up and look for Dracula, but my leg still had a big hole in it. I couldn’t understand why my leg wasn't healing so I just ignored the pain and dragged myself instead. 

Then suddenly, I was stabbed in the back, causing me to cough up blood. I turned around and spotted Dracula his whole body tense with his unholy rage. Without hesitation, he pulled his weapon out of my back and stabbed my right hoof. He then picked me up by my mane and slammed me into the ground. 

“YOU MISERABLE PEST,” he yelled at me. “I gave you an offer to become my fourth wife, I even gave you immortality, but you still stand against me! Now, here you are dying for standing with mortality! This is what you get for all the hell you put me through!”

In reply, I drew up the last of my strength to punch him in the face. My breath came in ragged gasps and tears ran down my cheeks as I picked my upper body up off the ground. “I’ll… never give up… you bastard! I’ll… end you-”

Dracula cut me off by punching me in the face. “ENOUGH!! FORGET THE POISON!! I WILL KILL YOU MYSELF!!”

Then, using his fangs to grab me by the neck, he threw me into the rubble from our crash. As I slowly picked myself up, I see Dracula use his dark magic to conjure his sword. His face grimaced in pain as he regenerated his bat wings. After they finished growing back, he began to slowly trot  towards me.

I quickly glanced around for my dagger, but I couldn't find it anywhere. As Dracula drew closer, I had to find something else to defend myself. All I could find was that stupid wooden spike, but I didn’t have any choice. I grabbed the wood, threw it, and impaled him in the eye.

As the spike impaled his eye, Dracula began to scream in pain. What happened next scarred me for life. I watched as his whole body disintegrated from the strike of the wooden spike. His mane began to fall off of his head. His wings fell off and quickly disintegrated. 

Then, he fell to the ground and began to thrash about while screaming in agony. After all of his skin burned off, his organs burst into flames. I quickly covered my ears and closed my eyes to shut out the gruesome death of Dracula. Finally, after his screaming ended, I looked over and was shocked by seeing only his skeleton. After a couple of seconds, his bones turned to ash.

I heaved a sigh of relief that it was all over and Dracula was dead. I was just catching my breath after the long night of horror, when an extreme pain rushed into my head. I felt my bat wings slowly devolve into my original, feathered wings while my fangs slowly devolved into my normal teeth. The changes were excruciating and took what seemed to be a lifetime. After the pain finally stopped, I dropped to the ground and fell unconscious.

> Final Chapter
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have awaken and screamed from the insane fight against Dracula. While I was breathing really hard, I somehow found myself in the hospital. I was really confused about how I got back here.

Suddenly, Twilight and the others bursted into the room and rushed to my aid. “Rainbow Dash, are you alright,” Twilight concerned. “We heard screaming!”

When I got a good look at them, tears of joy were dripping from my eyes because my best friends are back to their old selves. I jumped out of bed and hugged them all so tightly. “Girls,” I cried. “I am so happy to see you all back to normal!”

“Uh, what are ya talking about Sugarcube?” Applejack ended the moment.

When I separated from them, they all have confused looks on their faces. “What you mean what I’m talking about? I defeated Dracula and turn us all back to normal.”

They all tilted their heads when I mentioned Dracula. “Who,” Fluttershy whispered.

“Dracula! The vampire master! The one who turned all of you into vampires! Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity were evil deceiving freaks, who tried to kill me multiple times! Fluttershy was a mindless bat! Pinkie Pie was half vampire and half Pinkie Pie! The princesses were Dracula wives, who tried to devour me also! I was a vampire as well, until I single handedly taken out Dracula, which turning all of us back to normal!”

When I was done explaining the whole thing, they finally understood one thing. “Umm, darling,” Rarity grabbed my attention. “It's called a bad dream. You had a nightmare.”

“It wasn’t a bad dream! If it was a dream, then why are my wings all hea-” I quickly groaned in pain when I touch my wings.

“Rainbow Dash,” Twilight rushed to my side and lay her hoof on my shoulder.

I just stared at my broken wings and realized the truth. “I’m so sorry girls,” I apologized to my friends. “I guess it was a dream, but it felt so real.”

“I guess it was one of the side effects of those sleeping pills they had given you.”

“Well, at least, it's finally over. That nightmare really freaks me out. How long was I out?”

“Ya had been asleep for a week and five days sugarcube,” Applejack answered.

“Wow! I must've missed a lot.”

“It's alright Dashie,” Pinkie appeared right beside me. “We haven't gone to any adventures! Unless, you count us visiting you everyday.”

“Oh well. I thought you all are going to surprise me by tell-”

Suddenly, Pinkie gasped in horror when I mentioned surprise. “OH MY CELESTIA!! I COMPLETELY FORGOT TO MAKE YOU A GIGANTIC SUPER DUPER ICE CREAM VOLCANO CAKE!! DON’T WORRY DASHIE!! I WILL MAKE IT RIGHT NOW!! I WILL DESTROY ANY PONY WHO STAND IN MY WAY!!” She dashed out of the room in a blink of an eye.

“Ummm,” Twilight with a concerned look on her face for Pinkie. “Maybe we should go with Pinkie. You know to make sure that she won't cause any trouble with any pony. We’ll come back to check you out of the hospital. Bye Rainbow.”

“See ya soon sugarcube,” Applejack waved goodbye.

“Ta-ta darling,” Rarity said.

“Get well soon Rainbow Dash,” Fluttershy said as she left the room.

As I was alone in my room, I couldn’t get over that insane and extreme dream. I faced the entire Equestria of vampires and personally defeated a Dracula. To be honest, it's starting to sound ridiculous. I mean me fighting against an army of vampires. Especially, me fighting my own friends as vampires sounds crazy. I know that it was a dream, but it felt so real.

Then, there was a knock on the door and Nurse Redheart entered the room. “Oh,” I’m glad to see her as her old self. “Hi, Nurse Redheart.”

“Hello, Rainbow Dash,” she responded. “I’m glad to see that you up and well. How are your wings?”

“They kinda sting a bit. I thought the mediation was supposed to fix them?”

“I’m afraid that’s one of the side effects. Your wings will be better very soon. Just don't mess with them until they feel better.”

“Alright. So, when can I check out of the hospital?”

“Don't worry. After we have check your condition, you will be free to leave the hospital.”

“Okay.”

“Oh, I’ve almost forgot. There's another visitor who wanted to see you. Are you alright with that?”

“Sure.”

“I’ll just leave you two alone,” she said before she left the room.

Then, an happy number one fan stormed into the room with a big smile on her adorable face. I began to smile as tears were leaked from my eyes when I saw Scootaloo again. “Rainbow Dash,” she cried my name as she climbed up to my bed and gave me a hug. “I am so happy that you're alright!”

I hugged her back and cried, “It's really great to see you again, Scootaloo! I miss you so much!”

“I miss you too! I thought I was never going to see you again!”

“It's alright, Squirt. I’m not going anywhere.”

“But I was so scared of what happened to you!” I felt her tears running down on my chest. “When I saw you crashed and rushed to the hospital, I thought that you weren't going to make it. I thought that… that…” She cried while hugging me really tight instead of finish what she was going to say.

When she was done, I wiped the tears from her face and calm her down. “It's alright, Squirt. I'm fine now. And I couldn’t blame ya. I thought for a second that I was a goner, but it's looks like fate has given me another chance to see all my friends and family. And most importantly my sister.” I rubbed her mane. “And I was scared too.”

“About dying?”

“No. About leaving you. My little sister. But like I said. I’m not going anywhere.”

“I love you, Rainbow Dash.”

“I love you too, Squirt.”

When she wiped her tears away, Scootaloo resumed, “I’m sorry for crying a while ago. I'm sure that you never cry like that.”

“Actually,” I confessed, “I did.” Scootaloo tilted her head confused about what I’m talking about. “It happens a couple of times actually. When I had to let my pet, Tank, go into habitation… and I mostly cry in my dream.”

“What happened,” she asked with a concern look.

“In my dream, Equestria was taken over by vampires and everyone I know and love has been turned into vampires. When I realize that my closest friends had been turned into vampires, I was broken. I mean my very best friends, the ones I love, just been turned into monsters. But when I heard that you have turned into one, I just lost it. I just fell to the ground and began crying because I failed to save you. I actually thought that it was real.”

“Rainbow-”

“But it's okay. It's just a nightmare, but it really creeps me out.”

“Rainbow Dash… do you really mean it?”

“Meant what?”

“About you crying about what happened to me in your dream. Do you mean it?”

“Yeah.”

She wrapped her hooves around my chest and nuzzles my neck. “You really care about me,” she cried with tears on her face.

“Of course. You know I do. We’re sisters remember. We will always stick together, no matter what.”

“I love you, Rainbow Dash!”

“And I love you too, Squirt.”

I was so happy to see that little squirt. I was happy the whole vampire apocalypse was just a bad dream as well. I couldn't stand a second to see her as a mindless monster. If I saw her as one of them, then I would've lost the will to live. However, I don't care because it wasn't real and Scootaloo is with me. I couldn't be any happier.

Then suddenly, Nurse Redheart entered the room again and informed me, “I am really sorry to interrupt, but you have a really important visitor, Miss Dash.”

“Can you tell it to wait,” I asked her. “I wanted to spend some more time with my sister.”

“You don't understand. She really wanted to see you immediately.”

I sighed and accept it, “Alright, let her in.”

When the nurse exited the room, the very important pony entered the room, leaving a surprise look on my face. It was Princess Celestia herself. I was very confused about why she was visiting me.

“Hello, Rainbow Dash,” she greeted me. “I’m glad to see you up and well.”

I was too confused about what's going on, that I didn't respond. Scootaloo asked for me, but with excitement, “Princess Celestia! What are you doing here?!”

“I was just checking on Rainbow Dash. I have heard what happened to her and she has been asleep for a week. I just want to pay my respects to Twilight loyalist friend.”

“Oh,” I was flattered by her compliment, “wh-why thank you, your majesty. I really appreciate it.”

She turned to Scootaloo and asked her politely, “My dear filly, would you please wait outside? I wanted to chat with your sister privately about something.”

“Of course, your majesty,” Scootaloo bowed to the princess. She turned to me and hugged me before she exited the room.

When we're all alone, we hardly said anything to each other for about a couple of minutes. “Again,” I spoken first, “I really appreciate that you came and visit me, your majesty. That's so kind of you.”

“And I wanted to thank you,” she said.

I was confused about what she meant by that. “Thank me for what,” I asked.

“For saving Equestria.”

“O-Of course, your majesty. Me and my friends work real hard to keep Equestria-”

“I don't mean you and your friends works. I mean you saving Equestria from Dracula.”

I was surprised by what she just said. “Wh-What did you just said? Did you said that I’d saved Equestria from Dracula?”

“Indeed.”

“What?! B-But that was just a-”

“A dream?”

“How do you know-”

“What I was going to say?”

“Please-”

“Stop that?”

“What?!”

She began laughing after finishing every one of my sentences. “I-I’m sorry! I'm sorry! Go on!”

“Anyway, how do you know about Dracula? It was all just a dream.”

“Sadly, it isn't.”

“What are you talking about?! What's going on here?!”

“I’m so sorry, Rainbow Dash. I knew it wasn't right to leave you out of it.”

“What are you talking about?!”

“Rainbow Dash, the whole conflict against Dracula, the vampire apocalypse… it actually happened.”

I was completely shocked by all of this. I thought the whole vampires invasion was a bad dream, but it turns out to be real. I actually fought an army of vamponies, especially my best friends and the princesses. I’d even saved Equestria by ending that Dracula guy. What I don't understand is why covering all this up?

“Answer me this, your majesty. If it actually happened, then how come everyone, including my friends, acts like none of it ever happen?”

Then, she stood right beside my bed and began explaining everything. “After you had slain Dracula, we were free from the mind control of that tyrant. We noticed that everypony were unconscious when he died. Me and the others made a decision to make sure nopony will ever remember what Dracula had done to them.

“Luckily, only those who haven't been bitten by Dracula will forget everything that happens to them when they were vampires. Sadly, those who happen to been bitten by him will remember everything. The only ones who have been bitten by him was me, my sister, Cadance, and your friends. We erased your friends memories of being vampires and Dracula, so they weren't remember the dark deeds they had done under Dracula's control.”

“Wait a second,” I stop her before she could continue. “If you erased my friends memories, then how come I remember everything?”

“After what you had done for Equestria, you deserve to remember what you did for your friends and family. We were lucky to found you in time.”

“What do you mean lucky?”

“The poison that Dracula has given you was still intact within you, even if Dracula is dead. We manage to erase the virus from your body before it could kill you.”

“Oh… thank you, your majesty.”

“You are very welcome, my dear. After we had ridden the virus, we bandage your wings and deliver you to the hospital. When we delivered you, we began fixing the damages given by Dracula. We were also very lucky to save the lives that were almost taken by Dracula.”

“Did you saved the Wonderbolts?”

“Yes.”

“That's good. Wait! How did you saved them?”

“We just restored their blood cells before Dracula could end them.”

“What?! They are live?!”

“Indeed. Dracula drained most of their bloods and let them suffer until they agreed to join him. We're lucky to save their lives before they were done for. Unfortunately, we have to erase their memories too. We don't want any good ponies to remember such hardship and terrible torture they’d been through. We just want what's best for Equestria. Do you understand, Rainbow Dash?”

“I understand why you did it, your majesty. You don't want anyone, especially my friends, to remember what they had been through and what they've done. I don't want any of my friends to remember that they almost tried to kill me. I don't want them to remember that they almost lost a friend.”

“You really are the most loyalist pony I've ever met. You're loyal to your friends, to me, and to Equestria. Even if all hope is lost, you still save Equestria from a sinister villain. Thank you, Rainbow Dash, for saving Equestria.”

“Anytime, your majesty. I'm just doing my duty. I’ll do anything for my friends.”

“I appreciate your loyalty, my little pony.” Princess Celestia looked away from me as she lowered her head. “I hope you will forgive me.”

“For what?”

“For trying to kill you. I was in control of that awful form like you did, but Dracula took my will away and I couldn't fight it. And after what I’ve done to you… I am unworthy to be a princess. I could never forgive myself for what I did to you. I am so sorry for what I’ve done to you, my dear. I hope you could find it in your heart to forgive me.”

“Princess… I can't forgive you…” She lowered her in despair. “Because there's nothing that needs forgiving.”

Celestia quickly lifted her with a surprise look on her face. “But… I tried to kill you-”

“Your majesty that wasn't you back there. You were controlled by Dracula. There was nothing you could do about it. Plus, the real Princess Celestia I knew would never harm her ponies like that. Like I said, that wasn't you. That's why I can't forgive you because there's nothing that needs forgiving.”

“Still, it wasn't right of me to do such horrible torment to my loyal subjects-”

Before she could continued, I jumped out of bed and gave her a good Rainbow Dash hug, which surprised her also. After a couple of seconds, she hugged me back and embraced my comfort. “Your majesty,” I said while hugging her, “don't blame yourself. We both know that it was Dracula fault. I mean he was the one who caused all of this in the first place. So, stop blaming yourself please. I don't want my princess to be down about herself.”

“Bless you, my little pony,” she appreciated my support. “You really are the most loyalist pony of all Equestria.”

“Maybe I should wear a name tag about it. Rainbow Dash, the most loyalist pony ever!” We both laughed about it. “Are you good, your highness?”

“Yes. Thank you, Rainbow Dash.”

“Anytime, ma’am,” I saluted.

“Now, I believe that I must return to my duties. I can't keep my sister waiting on me forever. Farewell and get better soon, Rainbow Dash.”

“Goodbye, your majesty,” I waved goodbye.

Before she exited the room, she turned her head at me one last time and said, “Rainbow Dash…”

“Yes, your highness?”

She just stayed quiet for a while, like she doesn't have the guts to say something really important. Finally, she talks, “I… I… I would like to thank you once again for saving Equestria.”

“Like I said, I’m just doing my duty. Thank you, your highness.”

Princess Celestia formed a caring smile before she exited the room. I really appreciated her visiting me and congratulated me for defeating Dracula as well. Sadly, it looked like that she was about to say something else beside thanking me. Like something that I should've known a long time ago.

Then suddenly, Pinkie popped out of nowhere and placed a huge ice cream volcano cake in front of me. “Here's your welcome back plus get well ice cream volcano cake,” she shrieks with joy. “And look!” The cake erupts some rainbow sauce. IT EVEN ERUPTS RAINBOW CHOCOLATE SAUCE!!”

“Thanks, Pinkie,” I laughed at her awesome gift.

“Anything for a awesome friend!” She hugged me as I hugged her back.

Finally, the rest of the girls rushed into the room and hanging out until I get out of the hospital. I really enjoy that awesome ice cream cake Pinkie made for me. After I was checked out, they even celebrated a welcome back party for me.

To wrap it all up, my friends are all back to normal, Equestria is saved by yours truly, and the one and only Rainbow Dash is back in action. I never thought that I would save Equestria by a vampire apocalypse. It was really scary and creepy, but it was all worth it to save my best friends. This is Rainbow Dash saying peace out.
