Blue Angel (Part 1 WIP)

>It had been a few weeks since Trixie's return to Ponyville

>All had gone back to normal in the idyllic rural town

>Twilight Sparkle was in her library, studying as usual.

>It was a particularly nice day, but of course, all days were nice, unless they were scheduled not to be

>She turned a page in her book, her thoughts of the weather wandering eventually to Rainbow Dash

>Pehraps she would see what she was up to, and they would-

>"TWILIIIIIIGHT!"

>She didn't have much of a chance to react as Rainbow Dash slammed into her, causing the two to tumble into the library.

>She had just reorganized the books, too!

>She got back on her hooves, shaking her head. "What is it now, Rainbow D-"

>She paused, staring at her friend, mouth agape in confusion and horror

>"W. . .what.  ..I don't understand!"

>"Neither do I!" Cried Rainbow Dash, looking on the verge of tears. "I thought you fixed it, but it started growing this morning and I don't know why!"

>"Just hold on, Rainbow Dash. I'll fix it, no problem. . ."

>Twilight closed her eyes and concentrated, her horn lighting up

>With a poof!, Rainbow Dash's wing was back to normal.

>She flexed them, and with a smile looked to her friend. "Thanks Twi! I knew you could-"

>-fwop!-

>The wing regained it's crazy huge size, causing her to lose balance and fall over

>Rainbow Dash looked at the wing with horror, breaking down into tears

>"My life is ruuuuiiiiiined!"

 

 

>Twilight blinked, adopting a look of frustration. "I don't understand! That should have worked!"

>Her horn lit up again, but Rainbow Dash sprung to her hooves

>"Wait! Don't do that again!"

>"What? Why not?" Asked Twilight, confused.

>"It. . .kinda hurts. And it feels funny. And if it didn't work the first time, I don't think it's going to work again!"

>Twilight sighed. This was quite a pickle

>The Alicorn amulet was rather powerful, to be sure, but she was certain she had undone the effects shortly after they had been cast. . .

>What if her magic wasn't powerful enough? She'd have to check on Snips and Snails if that was the case, and she wasn't looking forward to that

>"I'm. . .not sure what to do in this case, Rainbow Dash. But I'll figure something out!"

>"What?! You gotta fix this NOW, Twi! I can't go out with this!"

>She outstretched her huge wing, knocking over a pile of books on a nearby table

>Twilight frowned. "Well, I can't keep you here. . .I know how you don't like being coped up in a house, and that wings going to be an issue."

>"There's gotta be something you can do! Anything! Please, Twilight, I'm beggin' you!"

>Twilight hesitated for a moment. She had an idea, but she wasn't sure it would work.

>"Well. . .I do have an idea, but-"

>"Great! Magic me up, then!" Said Rainbow Dash, stepping back and smirking

>"But Rainbow Dash, it's just a quick fix and-"

>"Just do it!"

>Twilight sighed, and closed her eyes, her horn lighting up and casting a spell

>Rainbow Dash was hit, and the library was bathed in a blinding light

>-fwop!-

 

>When the light faded, Rainbow Dash, blinked, smirking.

>"I feel all balanced again! Wohoo! You musta fixed it, no problem!"

>"Erm. . .not. . .quite." Twilight said nervously.

>Rainbow Dash looked to her sides. . .and saw not one, but two humongous wings, their size dwarfing the princesses  

>"B-but. . .how. . .you. . ." Dash looked mortified and Twilight sighed.

>"Like I said, it's just a temporary solution. I don't know what's causing your wing to stay like that, but I figure balancing it out would at least give you some comfort. . ."

>"You. . .you turned me into a freak!" Rainbow Dash shouted.

>"No! I would never do something like that!" Twilight said, trying her hardest not to raise her voice.

>"I promise you. . .I'll work tirelessly to find a way to fix this. You'll know more as soon as I do."

>Rainbow Dash's expression softened a bit, but she was still misty eyed. "P. . promise?"

>"Cross my heart, hope the fly, stick a cupcake in my eye."

>Rainbow Dash smiled, and walked forward, giving her friend a hug.

>They broke the embrace after a while, and Rainbow Dash smirked. "Heh, I bet I could fly super fast with these things!"

>"That's the spirit. Stay positive."

>"Yeah, positive! I'll be the best flyer ever with these babies!"

>She spread her wings, and in turn two more stacks of books were knocked over.

>"Eh he. . .whoops."

>Twilight rolled her eyes and lead her friend out, and she took off into the sky, albeit a bit unsteadily

>She lingered outside long enough to make her Dash didn't crash, and went back into the housebrary, rubbing her hooves together

>"Ha ha, time for research!"

 

===

 

>You weren't a person of much significance

>Few family members and fewer friends, a going nowhere soon job, but at least your apartment was nice

>You lived simply, donated to charity when you could, and had a decent life

>All that changed one night, during a particularly raging thunderstorm, the lightning was striking close to your apartment

>In a million to one chance, the lightning had struck in such a way that it tore through your window

>The sound was deafening, and the subsequent explosion was even more fearsome

>Before you were blinded by the raw fury of nature, you could swear the lighting bolt itself had an amethyst color

>Your world went dark for a while, as you floated not between life and death, but between worlds

>As far as you knew, though, you were dead.

>This is how it ends, huh? An inglorious end to your mediocre living

>Go figure, huh.

>You closed your eyes, floating between worlds that seemed to be forever

>In reality, it was only a few moments, and soon you felt the cold embrace of a floor, and a shocked gasp

>Not quite dead, it seemed

 

>Twilight Sparkle was amazed at the creature before her.

>It looked like a minotaur, but. . .not? No horns, no bull like features, not nearly as bulky. . .

>Whatever it was, she had brought it over, and she had to take care of it.

>Of course, she'd have to ask a whole bunch of questions first.

>Who knows what kind of secrets this creature knew!

>She hardly was upset at the fact her machines in the basement had overloaded and . . .exploded, slightly.

>A minor setback in the grand scheme of things.

>Besides, it had given her some important data on how to fix Dash's problem.

>'Hello there! My name is Twilight Sparkle, and-'

>The figure blinked, sitting up and looking around.

". . .What the hell? Where am I? What happened?"

>'I'm sure you are very confused. . .let me explain everything. '

>Twilight began doing what she did best: Lecture.

 

>Bit of a raw deal, innit?

>Zapped into a world full of magical talking equines with little to no chance of returning.

>Great. Just great.

>You could appreciate she was doing something like this for her friend, but why you, of all people?

>You weren't important, but maybe that was exactly why you got 'chosen' to come here.

>Hardly anyone would miss you. . .

>"Are you alright?" She asked, her concerned tone snapping you out of your thoughts.

'I just got pulled into a alien world, with no chance of going back home, rather violently at that. No, I'm not alright.'

>She frowned, her ears flattening against her head. "I'm sorry. . . I didn't know what would happen!"

>She was obviously torn up about it, and she wasn't baleful about it at all.

>You rubbed your temples, sighing and closing your eyes.

'I know, I know. . .it's just. . .quite a lot to take in, you know? Really makes one think about things. . .not exactly the good way.'

>She nodded. "I couldn't imagine how I would react, being thrown into an unknown world so suddenly. . ."

'Not much to be done about it, I suppose.'

>She tapped her chin, thinking. "Well, there is . . .something. Somepony, actually. My mentor, Princess Celestia. . .'

"Hm? What about her?"

>'She might know a way to get you home! I'll write a letter to her and see what she has to say.'

"Thanks. I'd appreciate that."

>'No problem. It's the least I could do.'

>There was a bit of an awkward silence before she spoke again.

>'It's. . .getting a bit late. I don't exactly have a guest bedroom, so. . .'

'Don't worry about it. I don't exactly have the strength to move, anyways.'

>'I'll get some blankets, ok?' She said, trotting up the stairs.

>You nodded and sat there, staring at the ceiling, lost in your own thoughts

 

>She came back down and you got a little makeshift bed going, and she cleared out some debris caused by your arrival

>You didn't really sleep at all that night, thoughts of home and family and other things wracking your mind.

>You felt like crying, mourning the loss of your normal life and thrust into this bizarre, unusual one.

>But who knows, this. . .Celestia might know how to take you back.

>And. . .strange as it may seem, you could just help out this Rainbow Dash pony.

>The was, after all, the reason you were here, right?

>You grappled with your purpose in this world for a while before eventually succumbing to a dreamless sleep.
