"Rainbow! Where are you! It's your friends! We're here to take you home!" yelled Applejack. They had begun their search about an hour after Rainbow Dash had bolted away from Twilight's library, and had been searching for a couple of hours since.

"Applejack, if she really doesn't remember us, why would she be willing to let us take her? I mean, really, use that brain of yours," snapped Rarity. And then, "I'm sorry Applejack, it's just that being in these creepy, dirty woods has been really irritating me. Fluttershy, do you see anything?" Rarity yelled up to Fluttershy, who was following closely above the tree line, hoping to get a sight of Rainbow.

"No, nothing. In fact, I haven't seen any form of flying animals since we got in here, this is really scary. Can we go back now?" Fluttershy said timidly. You could tell she was nervous. She was flapping her wings rapidly, her eyes were shifting back and forth, and her ears were flat against her head. "Besides, it's getting dark, and it isn't safe out here in the d-d-dark," she gulped.

"We gotta' keep searchin'. If she really doesn't have her memory back, then she has no idea what's in these here woods," Applejack stressed to her friend. "Let's think about her position here. She has a happy life with a great man for 15 years, and then six ponies trot into her house, tell her that she needs to leave, and, more or less, ponynap her back here. Now don't get me wrong, I think she is better off here, but is it what she truly wants? Anyways, she wakes up the next morning to find herself somewhere completely different, without her old memories, and does what any other pony would do, panics. Also, I don't have the darndest idea as to why she doesn't have her old memories, so don't ask." grunted Applejack. "Continuing on, she manages to escape the strange place, the cloud palace mind you, and runs right into one of the ponies that ponynapped her, the biggest one of all, Princess Celestia. Now, obviously, RD doesn't have any idea who Celestia is, but goes with her to see Twilight under the assumption of help. They get there, and she gets, what probably seems to her, assaulted by Pinkie Pie for the second time in days. I'm sure that disturbs her a bit, then she hears Celestia tell Twilight to try and change her memories again. Now, don't tell me that wouldn't make you shiver in your galoshes. She freaks out, and runs to the nearest place that reminds her of her home, the forest. She has no idea what is out here, so Fluttershy, until it is actually dark, we keep searching. I don't even care if she remembers us right now or not, I just want to see her safe and-" She was cut off by a large explosion.
