Chapter 3

Rainbow Dash put the finishing touches on the second chapter of her story. She put more effort into the emotion as well as the dialogue this time around as suggested by Twilight. Despite only getting four reviews, two were only helpful. Dash must have read over her story about two times and didn't really catch anything out of the ordinary except for crunched words and some misspellings.

Dash tapped on her keyboard again and again while her face was practically glued to the screen. "I really can't see anything else that could be a problem." She looked at the timer on the right bottom half of her screen as it read two twenty one. Really she had to get her sleep. She didn't want to wake up late again. It was now or never. She logged into Ponyfiction and prepared the uploading process for her story to be posted. "Password in. Now to..." A new screen popped up. She was frowning at its inconvenience. "Are you fucking serious?"

"Ponyfiction is down for maintenence."

"WHAT THE FUCK!" Dash shouted as she slammed her hooves onto the table. "Maintenance?"

At the worst possible time when everything was finally finished. The site couldn't process her story that night. Dash could kick and scream all she wanted but it wouldn't make the site come back any faster than it did. She hung her head in defeat then made sure she saved her work and turned off her system. The pegasus ripped the covers from her bed then lied down throwing them back on over herself.

She mumbled, "What a load of horse shit..." The pegasus then closed her sleepy eyes and went off to dream land.

The next morning. Celestia's sun has risen to greet the day but Rainbow Dash was still sleeping during its peek hours. She didn't care, she wanted sleep. She didn't fully wake up until after eleven. For some reason her head ached. Her head pounded. She grunted as she used both her hooves to rub her forehead hoping it would calm the pain down. It didn't. The pegasus let out a moan as she trotted slowly to her medicine cabinet in the bathroom looking for the asprin. She found the bottle then closed the mirror to show her relection.

Her eyes were only half open. It hurt to even look straight. She swallowed too pills then drank a full glass of water. Still the pain stayed. She filled her glass again and walked back to her bed. Luckily today was Sunday. Work didn't start until Monday.

She groaned while throwing the covers back on. Matter of fact her stomach wasn't feeling great either. She moaned, "Too much... McHooves."

Was it really worth eating eleven double cheese burgers Rainbow Dash?

"Shut up..." She muttered and turned over to face her TV. "Maybe a little TV will sooth me." Her hoof pressed up against the end table searching for the remote. Again and again she banged on it until she found it. The TV flipped onto a random channel, Dash kept pressing the buttons until something interesting came on. Until she settled on a show about finding bigfoot.

"Welcome to the fifth season of finding Big foot. We're on the trail in the wooded area of the Everfree forest and..." The host explained.

Dash mumbled, "How does something like this go on for five seasons?"

The pegasus closed her eyes again. Dreaming of where her story could take her next.

ooo

Daring Do hated coach. Anything was fine but seating in coach. Mayor Mare gave them tickets for the train sure but the cheap politician didn't want to spring ten or more bits. This is the fate of Equestria we're talking about here.

The dark haired pegasus felt a bad kink in her neck from sitting on the hard wooden seat alone. She looked at her watch. The timing was not good. Rainbow Dash's friends took their sweet time getting to the train station. Already two hours late. Then again. Daring Do showed up whenever she wanted at meetings. Not that she wasn't organized but she lived the way she wanted to.

Sitting across from her was the fashion queen; Miss Rarity. A white unicorn with a luscious purple curly mane and tail. Wearing something rather not very attire to what the mission might call for. Posh posh sat there in her white frilly dress that complimented her white coat. Decorated with tiny gems. Daring Do couldn't tell if she nabbed it off of a queen but didn't care. Rarity was talking Do's ear off about her visits to high class parties. How she was the bell of the ball with her custom made dresses. She could have any stallion she wanted by the looks of it.

"Really?" Daring Do thought to herself as she nudged her hat to cover her face. "Of all the cabins I get stuck with the posh?"

"Mind if I ask miss Daring Do?" Rarity smiled.

Daring Do grunted.

"What do you do for a living?" Rarity asked.

"I'm an archaeologist. Nothing special." Daring do lifted her hat to speak then lowered it again.

Rarity put her hoof to her chest, slightly quizzical, "My. You must be some archaeologist then if the princess requested your services."

Daring Do didn't answer. All she wanted to do was kick her feet up and try to make the best of it.

Rarity wasn't getting much excitement out of the mare across from her. Her eyes set outside the window watching the scenery pass by. The green forested mountains in the distance. The blue dimming skies. Almost like it was out of a famous pony's painting. And Daring Do was missing it. But not like she hasn't before. She seen them countless times. Always was a treat after each expedition.

*BANG*

A gunshot rang out. Ponies were screaming in panic. Rarity held her chest almost falling sideways into her seat. Daring Do lifted her hat and frowned, "Take the train they said..."

"NO PONY MOVE! THIS IS A ROBBERY!" Shouted a very masculine voice.

"NO FUNNY BUSINESS!" Another voice screamed, this one sounded like it belonged to a smaller pony.

"What are we going to do Daring Do?" Rarity pleaded, her chest heaving up and down.

Daring Do knew the whole routine of train heists. The fancier the train the more time the hostages were going to stay and more of their valuables stolen. "Well Rarity. Looks like your crap is gonna get nabbed."

"This isn't funny!" Rarity clutched her red ruby heart gem around her neck.

"I don't give a flying horses' ass right now." Daring Do took out her forty five caliber handgun from her holster inside her jacket. "Just do what they say and you won't get hurt."

"What? Why?" Rarity shouted.

"I'm going to get to the front of the train and from using the window here." Daring Do pointed, "I just might be able to scope out what's going on."

"NO! MAKE LOVE TO ME PLEASE BEFORE YOU GO!" Rarity pleaded as she ripped open her shirt to show her lacy bra supporting her huge breasts.

"And me too!" Twilight Sparkle opened the door to rip off her clothes to also show her amazing sexy figure.

"And me as well!" Fluttershy demanded.

Just then a pony version Hulk Hogan jumped in front of the bad guys and ripped off his shirt, "WHATCHA GONNA DO BROTHER! WHEN PONYMANIA GOES WILD ON YOU!" Hulk Hogan kicked one bad guy in the face then scared the other one away.

Big Foot came in smoking pot and loving it.

Daring Do smiled while raising her chainsaw hand. "Hail to the king baby."

Cheerilee stuck her head out the train door and shouted, "WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT BIGFOOT?"

ooo

And that's when Dash woke up.

"What the hell did I just dream about?" Dash rubbed her forehead. She looked over at her clock to see that it was close to three o'clock in the afternoon. She decided that was enough sleep for one day. Checking her email wouldn't hurt and she did. Turning on the computer again then logging into her email. "Oh something from Ponyfiction." She clicked on it then frowned, "Just another story alert."

She uploaded chapter two and called it a day with her writing. This way she'll have all day for the reviews to come in. She didn't bother turning off her TV while checking out the other Daring Do stories. Some instantly got her attention as she read trough them. "Wow. This one is really cool." She favorite the stories she liked and wanted to read more about. She looked up at the review counter and found out that the story had over fifty reviews. "Wow fifty. Hope I get that far up." She clicked and clicked. She found another interesting story that had twelve long chapters but only one review. In a way, she felt sorry and decided to review the first chapter after she read it.

Dash left; Keep on trucking man. I like your story.

Wasn't much of a review but more of a shout out. Hoping in a way to establish a connection between her and the author. She scrolled down further. "This other story needs original characters." She looked at the reviews and found a large amount, "WOW. Sixty reviews. But mostly of people submitting characters." She looked at the publishing date, "That's two years ago." Then she looked at the update, "Hasn't been updated in over two years."

Dash knew the idea of bait and switch. An author comes up with a story that needs original characters then asks others for them just to get their review counter up. She hated the idea already as she looked through the reviews of characters. "This one is too Maree Sue. And atleast five guy OC's want Daring Do's heart. Eight other characters are related to her. Another is her long lost sister. What the hell these characters suck."

Then it hit Dash, "What the hell was that dream about again? I remember Rarity showing me her boobs... I MEAN DARING DO!" She blushed. "Then Twilight came in. Then Fluttershy did as well wanted to be part of the sexy circle..."

Dash fell silent for a moment.

"Well time to look up some porn!" She shouted.

To be continued...

Note: Yeah happens to me at times. Site goes down when I finally finish my chapter. Don't worry, that train scene isn't part of Dash's story. Or atleast some of it until it got up to Rarity throwing herself at Daring Do.
