Another Chance at Life
Chapter 92: 92. It Gets Worse
Previous Chapter Next ChapterA/N: This will probably be the second to last chapter I post until Saturday. I’m going to unwind and have a little get together with three of my other friends. I know that you all want me to make everything better and all, but I want this arc to really top them all before it. Let’s get started shall we? Also, this chapter will solely be in Ponyville until possibly the very end.
Rainbow Dash came to in her cloud home in Ponyville. She was with Stratus and he was still asleep. She walked around the house and found it just as she left it. She felt like she hadn’t been here in forever, but she just let the thought slip from her mind as she wandered through her house.
Stratus had gotten up as she wandered through her house and was now trying to keep up with her as she walked. “Mom, where are we?”
“We’re in my house Strat. I felt like I haven’t been here in forever, but I just am happy to be here again” Rainbow Dash replied to her son with a smile.
“Where were we staying before since you said that it felt like you haven’t been here in forever?” Stratus asked quizzically.
“I don’t know, but I want to go talk to Twilight for a little bit. I haven’t seen her for a while” Rainbow Dash said to the little cream colored pegasus foal.
“Can I come?” Stratus asked bouncing.
“Of course you’re coming” Rainbow said before she lifted him up onto her back and rocketed out of her house and into the bustling town below her. They flew for a minute and landed in front of Twilight’s library. RD knocked on the door and after a few minutes the purple unicorn opened the door and she looked a mess. Her face brightened a little when she saw Rainbow and Stratus standing in front of her.
“Hi, I’m glad you’re all right. Is everything alright with Ezra?” Twilight asked the cyan pegasus.
“She’s fine, and now I came home and I want to relax for a while with Stratus” Rainbow Dash said in reply with a smile.
“Wait, you and Stratus? Where’s Kyle?” Twilight asked getting just a little worried.
“Who are you talking about? I don’t know anypony by the name Kyle, and I don’t think Strat does either. Why do you want to know that?” RD asked as she was motioned inside by Twilight.
“RD, are you alright? You know Kyle, he’s the one who married you, had Stratus with you, been with you most of the ten months he’s been here! Are you sure everything’s fine?” Twilight asked again, getting even more worried at what RD had just told her.
“No, I don’t know who this Kyle is, and I’m pretty sure I’d know my so called husband and father of my child” Rainbow Dash retorted, getting a little angry as to why Twilight was pushing this matter further.
“Mom, who is Twilight talking about?” Stratus asked the cyan pegasus.
“I don’t know Stratus, but she seems to think that we know who it is” Rainbow Dash said to her son with a smile.
Twilight couldn’t believe what she was hearing. She started to think of everything that happened over the past few days. She went and visited Ezra, when she left Ezra went missing for a short time, Kyle sent a message saying that he found her and she released a magic burst into the air and the sun set, which it still hasn’t risen yet, but that’s because it’s still nighttime, and then there was no contact until RD came home with Stratus. “Oh no” she said half to herself before she walked over and took out a small gem that she had enchanted so long ago to see what Kyle was doing when she needed to.
Rainbow Dash got curious and she walked over to Twilight who set the gem on the table. A large projection burst from the gem and the three of them were faced with only blackness. It was like Kyle was gone from Equestria altogether. Twilight looked into the black void of where she should be seeing Kyle and she was almost ready to feint because of the new levels of stress she was feeling.
Twilight turned to face Rainbow Dash, but she heard another knock at the door. She yelled as loud as she could “come in!” a few moments later Shadow Breeze walked in and his face went from a smile to somewhat of a frown. Twilight resumed what she was going to do. She looked Rainbow dead in the eyes “Rainbow Dash, this is very important that you tell me everything that you know from when you met Ezra. I fear something has happened to Kyle, and this time it’s really bad!”
“Ok, for the last time Twilight, I don’t know who Kyle is! I saw Ezra and we talked for a few minutes, and then I came here! Stop trying to get me to say something that I don’t know anything about!” Rainbow dash said with her anger rising a little more.
“Shadow Breeze, I want you to do something very important for me. I want you to go to Canterlot and see if you can’t find anything out about Kyle, I think the princess isn’t what she portrayed herself to be to me. I think she did something to Kyle, RD, and Stratus and I want to know what. I want you to go now and report back with anything you find out” Twilight said before she looked back at Rainbow Dash.
“Ok, I’ll be back as soon as I can!” Shadow said before he left the tree house.
“Rainbow Dash don’t make me do this. I need to find out what’s going on with all of this and I’m prepared to go into your thoughts if I have to so I can get the information I want” Twilight said to the cyan pegasus with a frown.
“Go ahead, you won’t find anything about this Kyle or anything!” Rainbow Dash said before she tilted her head so Twilight could use the spell.
“Fine” Twilight said before she charged her horn and touched the top of RD’s head. She was instantly hit with all of her memories, but RD was right, as Twilight looked through them all, Kyle wasn’t there. Kyle wasn’t in any of Rainbow Dash’s thoughts. She stopped looking and Rainbow dash looked at her with disapproval. “Dash, what happened to you when you met Ezra?”
“I’m done with all of this, Twilight, you’re going crazy again. Me and Stratus are going to go home and relax, if you need us come and get us” and with that being said, Rainbow Dash put Stratus back on her back and took off out of the house. She flew and saw a house that seemed to have been recently moved into and she thought about going to meet the new ponies in town, but she decided that she’d do that tomorrow, she was a little irritated and upset from Twilight’s pressing of who Kyle was.
Twilight was left inside of the tree house alone with Spike, who was doing his chores. She shook her head and thought about everything. “I know something is wrong, nopony could forget everything about somepony else without being influenced by everything. ‘Shadow, you better find out something, because I’m getting nowhere here’ she thought to herself as she looked once more at the black projection of what should be Kyle.
A/N: Please don’t yell at me everyone! I needed to do this because of the fact that I’m building up massive suspence for the good parts coming soon. I don’t want to make you mad, but it’s still going to be sad and angering for a little while longer, but it will get better. I’m going to go calm down from my CST final now, see you tomorrow with another update!
