A/N: I know that you think that it’s going to still get worse, and it will, but most of this chapter is going to be on the lighter side of things, well, as light as it could get anyways. I hope you like it!

I never thought being encased in stone could feel so bad. I was still with Rainbow Dash, that was a plus, but we were in what looked to be a very small room that was made out of polished stone with no doors or windows, just one tiny hole in the ceiling where light could come through. Rainbow dash and I were in the center of the light and I was still holding her, and she was still crying into my neck. Ok, enough with the waterworks for a little while Dashie! Initiate Joker personality: “Let’s put a smile on that face!”

“Rainbow Dash, everything is alright now. You don’t need to cry anymore, let me see your face, let me see you smile!” I said to her trying to lighten the mood.

Rainbow Dash lifted her head off my neck and sniffled once “Kyle, how can you be so happy we were encased in stone, Ezra can do what she wants to us now and we can’t do anything about it. We lost our son, we have nothing anymore” she said to me in between sobs.

“Dash, I have faith in our friends. We aren’t done yet, even though it looks bleak. I know that everything will be fine, and I’m here with you, so you don’t need to be upset. Now come on, stop with the sad for a little while” I said to her with a soft smile and a kiss on the lips. Still love it with all of my gusta!

“Kyle, what do you think’s going to happen to us? What if we never get out? I don’t want to be encased in stone forever” she said to me.

“Dash, we will be out of here soon, I know we will” I said to her with a smile.

We sat down on the hard floor and I draped one of my wings around her. She rested her head on my shoulder and she was calming down a little. “Dash, when we get out of here and everything goes back to normal, I want to be turned back into my original human form. Do you mind if I do that?” I asked her.

“Of course I don’t, you rule your own life and I’ll always love you for being my little idiot, human or pony” RD said to me with a smile.

Finally, she cheers up and the mood lightens immensely! “Ok, I just wanted to make sure you didn’t mind. I want to keep you happy and I would have stayed a pony if you wanted me to. And I know you love me being an idiot, it’s what got you to like me in the first place, that and because I’m like a mushroom.” Will she get it, will she understand the joke?

“Oh very funny, because you’re a fun-guy. I see what you did there” Rainbow Dash said to me with a jab to my side in fun. She then settled down and snuggled in closer to me and I looked down at her and she sighed. “Kyle, do you ever want to go back home? Don’t you miss your family back there? I know you died and everything, but wouldn’t you like to see them again?”

“Dash, you and Stratus are my family now. Now I would be lying if I said that I never wanted to go back and see my family again, but I don’t know how or if I could bring myself to do it even if I had the chance. I would have the fear of losing you and Stratus if I went there” I said to her with a solemn face. What made her think of this, I’m not sure I want to hear about this! Where are my ear plugs?

“Kyle, do you want to see your mom again?” Rainbow Dash asked me as she leaned in close to my face and kissed me on the cheek for a moment.

“I do, I want to tell them all goodbye in person, because I know I didn’t get to do that when I was hit and killed. I want to see them all one last time” I said as it was my turn to get teary eyed. I was starting to shed not so manly tears at what RD was making me remember. I buried it down into the joy I felt coming here, but deep down I always wanted to say goodbye. AWWWWW, why does she have to act like a therapist and make me remember what I buried! I need to get help; I think I’m crazy now!

“Kyle, what if I told you that there was a way that you could do just that? What if I told you that there was a spell that Celestia knows that can teleport anypony to where they came from for a short amount of time? And I could go with you!” Rainbow Dash said to me with a smile.

What-What –WHAT! Why did she never tell me this before, I’ve only been here for god knows how many months, and she never told me I could say goodbye to my other family!? I’m not sure if I should be mad or happy at what I heard right now. “There is? And if I went there I was sure I could get back home? And you could go with me?” I said to her in disbelief. Oh the things we could do the short time we were there! I need to do it now if this whole thing is legit, I want to ruin my towns name and make them wish they all never knew who I was or made fun of me! MWAHAHAHAHA!!!

“Yes, and I think you should do it when we get out of here and everything is normal again. Twilight can turn you back into a human and then Celestia can take both me and you to your home and you could do what you need to do” she said to me with a smile.

“Holy sweet mother of god! Looks like we have something to do when we get out of here now! Thank you for telling me this and, do you want to know a little bit about what my home has to offer you?” I said to her with a smile. “And one other thing, do you know what we could do when we are there? Like is there any restrictions?” I asked her as I thought over everything I wanted to do. This is going to be epic! I will need to prepare what I’m going to do when I get there! Eh, on second thought I think I’m just going to wing it!

“There are no known restrictions that I can think of at the moment, it is as if you were there from the get go. And you have control over everything, you can bring stuff back with you, but no sentient beings, and you can take things there, but nothing that will alter their course of reality negatively. Let’s stop right there with all of the info for now, I’m getting pretty tired” RD said with a yawn before she snuggled in closer to me and rested her head on my shoulder.

“Ok, we both need the rest. Let’s hope things get better soon, because I want to show you Earth and all of its hidden wonders” I said to her before I rested my head on top of hers. Soon we both fell asleep, thinking happy thoughts for the first time in a while.

Shadow Breeze was sitting in his house with Fluttershy. He had been instructed to go to Canterlot immediately if she was not back within a day’s time. It’s already been about 12 hours and still no sign of the lavender unicorn. He turned to Fluttershy and sighed “I’m going to possibly have to go to Canterlot. Twilight needs me to if she’s not back in 12 hours. I guess something’s wrong and she might need my help.

“Be careful if you do go. I don’t want you to get hurt” Fluttershy said to him with a soft smile.

“I know you don’t. Now come on, let’s go get some rest, tomorrow might be a busy day for me” Shadow Breeze said to Fluttershy with a quick peck on the lips also.
