> Life as a tortious > by Count_Pony001 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a dim, sunny evening, Rainbow Dash is flying to her house in Cloudsdale. She made it to her house and opened the door with her hooves. Her pet Tortious, Tank saw her and smiled slowly, Rainbow Dash said, "Good Evening, Tank!" she continued, "It was a tiring day today." She then marched to the kitchen and made herself a Peanut butter and Jelly sandwich. she gave Tank some carrots and gave him a hoof bump. She then flew to her bed and closed her eyes... she is asleep. She was dreaming about that time the ShadowBolt tried to convince Rainbow Dash into joining the ShadowBolts when she was fixing a bridge so her friends can cross. Rainbow Dash was twisting and turning. She was now dreaming about a giant pie that is chasing her because she hates pie, she was screaming, sweating, and twisting and turning. Then in her dream, Daring Do came to save her, then the two got married and had many fillies. She then felt a bit funny, she doesn't feel like her old self, she the wakes up and looks at her surroundings and see that she is in Tank's body, and she is in Tank's pet bed. Then, Tank woke up and saw he was in Rainbow Dash's body, tank was shocked that she was in Rainbow Dash's body, he put his forehead in shock. Rainbow Dash said, "AHHH! What happen to me, I'm tank and I am stuck in my owner's body!" he then blinked; Rainbow Dash walked up to Tank; she saw that Tank was in her body, Tank said, "Why am I in your body, how did this happen!?" Rainbow Dash blinked slowly. Tank said, "This is scary, don't worry Rainbow Dash, I will find a cure." Rainbow Dash was shocked she switch bodies with Tank. She thought to herself, "How did I end up in Tank's body, is this some type of prank, Pinkie Pie? I hope Zekora will make a cure for this." Tank pet Rainbow Dash in the head and walked out. Tank (In rainbow Dash's body) went around Ponyville looking for something to do. Tank said, "I will go find Zakora so I can get the cure and return everything to normal." Then, Pinkie Pie was passing Pie and said, "Oh hey, dashie! How are you?" Tank said, "Oh hey, wait who are you?" Pinkie gasped and said, "It's me Dashie, remember?" Rainbow Dash said "Right..." Pinkie Pie said, "You ate anything?" Tank put his hooves on Pinkie's shoulders and said, "No, can I have some pie?" Pinkie Pie said, "But... Dashie... you hate pie!" Tank said, "That was a long time ago." Pinkie stared at Rainbow Dash (Well tank since tank and Dash switch bodies) she mumbled "Okie Dookie Loki!" she grabbed Rainbow Dash with her hooves and dragged her to Sugarcube corner, she said "Be right back!" she ran to the kitchen and made a strawberry pie with whipped cream and strawberry filling; she placed the pie in front of 'rainbow Dash' she said, "Enjoy, Dashie!" then she hopped to the kitchen. > Chapter 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash looked at the pie, he remembers the time he ate some pie, and he got a tummy-ache. Tank (Who switch bodies with Rainbow Dash) grabbed one slice of the pie with his hooves and insert the pie into his mouth, he nibbles a bit and chew. He swallows the pie and says, "My, that pie taste so bad." Rainbow dash left Sugar Cube Corner and said, "Where is Zaokra, I need the cure so I can go back to my original body!" she flew to Evergreen Forest and landed by Zakora's front door, she knocked on the door of Zakora's house and Zakora answered, Oh hello Rainbow Dash, everything okay? I am concern about you I say." Rainbow Dash said, "So I woke up and me and my pet, Tank switch places, I am in Rainbow Dash's body, and she is in my body, do you have a cure?" Zakora said, "Hmm let me check to see if I have it, here come here and sit." Rainbow dash came inside and sat on Zakora's bed. Zakora search her house to see if she had the cure. She said, "Ah Ha! I found the cure but let me be sure!" Zakora red the recipe for a potion that will reverse the effect of body swap. She said, "I have the recipe, I will make it." 3 hours later: Zakora said, "Okay so I made the potion but there are some rules, but they are cool! You and rainbow Dash need to drink it at the same time, and you must do it before midnight or you and Dash will be like this... Forever!" Rainbow dash had a shocked look, she grabbed the two potions and flew fast to Rainbow Dash's house in Clouds-Dale, she flew through the door. Rainbow Dash (Who was in Tank's body) slowly turned his head towards Tank (Who was in Rainbow Dash's body) Tank said, "Look I got the potion, we need to drink this at the same time and before midnight or else we will be like this for the rest of our lives!" she grabbed her pet's food bowl and empty it and then filled it with the mysterious purple potion, she then placed in front of her pet and yelled "Drink when I drink or it won't work! I hate flying and traveling fast." Rainbow Dash and Tank drank together and then they felt a bit dizzy then after a good 12 hours, Rainbow Dash woke up in her own body, she said, "I'm back, I'm me again!" and smiled proudly . Rainbow Dash said, "So this is what life as a tortious is like, it quite boring but interesting, I am going to Twilight to find a book about hibernation. Tank went back to sleep; he dreams about him flying in the bright, blue sky. Rainbow Dash went to the library and said, "Hey Twi, can I have a book about Tortious, I want to learn more about them after I switch bodies with him." Twilight, perplexed said, "O- Okay, Dash."
