First Experience

It was a cold winter day in Ponyville. Rainbow Dash was flying across the sky to pass the time. "Man, Hearth's Warming is almost one week away and I haven't been able to decorate yet.

I really need some help! Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy are busy making cookies and Applejack is passing out gifts to everypony. I haven't even made the cards yet! Maybe Twilight and Spike could help me out.

Rainbow flew to Twilight's house and knocked on the door. Twilight opened the door and said "Hi Rainbow Dash!" she replied saying "Hi Twilight".

"Take a seat Rainbow, there's something I want to warn you about."

Twilight invited her into her house. Spike came in and greeted Rainbow. Twilight said to Rainbow "So I've been studying this dimension named Limbo.".

"When somepony is about to get killed, they are brought to another dimension and have one minute to try and fix their death by manipulating the environment.".

"Time stops since it's an out of body experience. If they are able to manipulate it correctly, they will have another chance of life. If they fail, then they go on with their death.".

Rainbow replied saying "So ponies get another chance to live by trying to stop the cause of death?" she replied with a yes.

"Twilight! I need your help!" yelled Spike from across the kitchen. "I'll be right there Spike!" Twilight replied "Hold on a second Rainbow".

She ran into the kitchen and left Rainbow alone. She told herself "A second chance before death huh?" with a confused voice.

After a few minutes, Spike got out of the kitchen and brought a tray of cookies. Spike asked Rainbow "Want some cookies Rainbow?". She answered with a yes. She took a cookie and tried one. "Wow this is delicious!" Spike replied "Thanks!".

Twilight went back to the room where they were and sat down with them. Rainbow asked them "So anyway, can you guys help me with my Hearth's Warming decorations? I haven't even made the cards yet!" she asked while laughing. Both of them said "Sure we'd love to he-"

All of a sudden the ground started shaking. All three of them yelled "Earthquake!!!".  The earthquake caused the bookshelf next to them to fall down where they are.

They all screamed. Just before the second they were about to be crushed, time stopped, the world around them turned black and white, they became transparent and saw their real bodies next to the bookshelf. Spike and Rainbow stood without a clue whats happening.

The shocked Twilight said to them "It... It can't be... Rainbow, Spike... Do not panic but we're in the Limbo dimension.".  The astonished Spike and Rainbow looked at Twilight after she spoke.

"No no no no no! This isn't happening! We're gonna die!" She said in a panicked voice. She continued panicking. Rainbow held Twilight's shoulders and shook her.

"Twilight get a hold of yourself! Listen, you said that we have one minute to fix our death right?" She replied with a yes in a mixture of fear and stress.

"I remembered you said that we are able to move the stuff around us to stop our death. Since the earthquake made the bookshelf fall on us, the thing we need to do is to move that stupid thing out of the way!"

"Ok ok ok... I could really use some comic relief now. Anyway, lets move this thing.". Just when Rainbow and Twilight turned around, they saw that the bookshelf was already back in it's normal position. Spike was standing next to it panting with an exhausted looking face.

"Woah Spike what happened?" Said Rainbow. "Well when you guys were off talking away, I had to push bookshelf back where it was by myself!". The two ponies looked at Spike and the bookshelf in astonishment.

"So you pushed it by yourself?" Spike replied with a yes "Wow I'm surprised. Oh yeah Twilight Sparkle remember when you said you wanted some comic relief? Well you got it." Said Rainbow Dash.

Their one minute passed and they got sent back to the real dimension. They got back to where they were standing and saw that Twilight's entire library was a wreck. "Oh my..." said Twilight to herself. "Whew that was close..." said Spike.

Twilight began to clean up the books scattered all over the floor with her magic. "I'll just come back later. See you guys later!". Spike and Twilight waved goodbye to Rainbow.

Rainbow Dash started to fly back to her house. When she got there she started to decorate the Christmas tree. After a few hours, she was able to finish all of her Christmas gifts and tree.

"I. Am. Exhausted" said Rainbow Dash before she collapsed on her bed.

The next day, Rainbow heard someone knocking on the door in the middle of the night. She got up and stood half-asleep. She started walking to the door in a zombie-like matter. She opened the door without knowing it.

She closed her eyes and fell asleep while standing up. She heard a voice calling out to her.

"Rainbow... Rainbow. Rainbow! RAINBOW DASH!!!" yelled the voice.

Rainbow was still asleep murmuring to someone in her dream "No Pinkie... I don't wanna help you make... cupcakes... I've read the... Story before...".

She heard footsteps running into the kitchen. She noticed that the sink was turned on. The footsteps came back to where she was. Rainbow heard a splash of water and felt something cold on her face.

She yelled out "NO PINKIE DON'T PULL THAT OUT!".

It was Spike who was calling out to her. Spike explained to Rainbow with a rushing voice "Listen Rainbow Dash, Twilight found out that when somepony survives the Limbo Dimension, somepony else has to die.".

Since we got a second chance, death is looking for his next soul to take away. Rainbow paused and closed her eyes to analyze what Spike said.

When she was finished she yelled "WHAT!!! So anypony can die!!?". Spike answered with a yes and said

"Yeah but, just come to my house and me and Twilight will explain everything. "See ya later!" said Spike.

She closed the door and collapsed to where she was standing.

Sleeping.
