Derpy Hooves and the Rainbow Factory

Chapters
Chapter 1: A New Job?
"I can't believe Mr. Letterheart!" I say glumly. I got fired from work because I kept dropping the packages. I open the door to my home, and go straight to lay down on my bed. "Well, I better get something to eat." I walk out the door, and realize there is a flyer for a job at The Rainbow Factory. "Hmmm... I guess I'll apply over there, since everypony knows I'm really clumsy." I walk back home, and grab my saddle bag, and of course, a muffin. I fly to Cloudsdale, and eat my muffin on the way there.
When I arrive, a mare says to state my name and age. "Derpy Hooves, Age: Muffin!" She walks me into a dark room, with no light or anything. Just black darkness. "First things first..." A voice says from behind. "You cannot tell ANYPONY."
Chapter 2: A Secret I Can't Keep
"Huh?!" I say, backing away a little. "The point of this factory is to make rainbows... Out of ponies. Don't tell anypony or you die. I mean it." Rainbow Dash says. She walks away, and soon lights turn on, leading me somewhere.
I walk into a room, filled with caged ponies. Not a single one if them were Pegasi. I turn around and see Fleetfoot. "You'll never get away with this Rainbow Dash!" She screams with tears in her eyes. Two Pegasi drop her in to a machine. The last thing I heard was her screaming.
Soon, Rainbow Dash walks in, commanding a couple of ponies to drop a cage. I stare in disbelieve. How could Rainbow do this? She seems so innocent! When she's not looking, I run out crying. "Why?!" I whisper to myself. I remember the words she said to me: "Don't tell anypony or you die." "I...die? I can't tell anypony then!"
Chapter 3: Celestia.
When I got home, I sat on my couch, thinking of a plan. "Should I tell Princess Celestia? Should I go back and promise Rainbow Dash that ill keep the secret? No. Soon the population is going to decrease!" I run out the door, heading to SugarCube Corner. "Maybe a muffin will calm me down and help me think" I thought.
As I reach for the knob on the door, I feel a tap. "Derpy Hooves." A royal guard says. "Let us escort you to Canterlot."
"Have you been to Cloudsdale today, Derpy?" Princess Celestia says. "There has been a sudden decrease of Equestria's population, and more rainbows. We think the Rainbow Factory might have something to do with this. Do you know anything?" "N-no. I'm sorry." I lie. "Derpy, please. It's very important. Soon, only a few ponies will be left." Rainbow's words go through my mind. I can't die. I have lots of things to do, and promises to keep. "No. Goodbye." I try to walk out the door, and the two royal guards stop me. "Derpy Hooves!" She says loudly. "I can't rule a land where all the Earth ponies and Unicorns are dying. Please." "I'm sorry Princess. I don't know anythi-" I see her horn glow, and suddenly I'm saying, "Rainbow Dash is killing ponies to make rainbows with a few other Pegasi."
While I'm knocked out, I dream of Rainbow Dash killing me. "It's come to this. You told!" She says. "I-I'm sorry! Princess Celestia put a spell on me to say the truth!" She throws me in a cage, and the cage moves by the Pegasus Device. "NOOOOO-"
I wake up and find myself in a dungeon.
Chapter 4: Prison
I scream on top of my lungs. "LET ME OUT!" I lean on the wall with tears in my eyes. "Why? Why did she have to do this to me?" I think. A few minutes later, I see Princess Luna come towards my cell. "Princess!" I say happily. "I'm sorry Derpy, but Celestia said you need to be here. She does not want you to interfere with Rainbow Dash's death." "WHAT?!" "For killing so many ponies, she is sentenced to death." "PLEASE PRINCESS, I PROMISE I WON'T INTERFERE!" I say. "Ok fine." She let me out, and I rushed to find my doctor.
