Rainbow Dash's POV

I woke up, but didn't dare to open my eyes. I knew instantly it wasn't my house. Whoever built this place seemed to crank the temperature real high up. I opened my eyes up to a blinding light. No, this wasn't a building. It was a desert. The thing is, it didn't look familiar at all!

"Where... Where am I?" I asked.

I saw a carrier fly past me, pushing me a little bit from the wind. Just a few seconds later, I saw a blue blur pass me.

I flew up to this fast runner. "You can't lose me, Egghead!" He said. He had sports tape on his wrists and ankles, a bandanna, and blue arms and legs.

"EggMAN! You know my name is Doctor Eggman! You do that on purpose!"

"Do what, Egghead?" This Eggman only growled.

There was a silence, and for a few seconds later, I noticed that the hedgehog got wide-eyed, and stopped, almost going off the edge. There was a giant chasm there.

"It all ends here, good friend! Prepare to be destroyed, by Burnbot!" Then, a big robot showed up, and I noticed it's lack of fire abilities, when the speed demon said "So what, is he gonna burn me, with flamethrowers or something?"

"Flamethrowers uh no."

"Oh, um acid? Incendiary grenades?"

"No, no, no, he has claws, he has claws, very painful claws!" And as if to prove it, Burnbot showed up its claws, and pinched them together.

"Then you should've called him Clawbot, or Veloceraptor, or Pinchertron 900! But Burnbot? That's just false advertising!"

"I named the robot, Sonic! Burnbot, attack!" So that's who the hedgehog is... But, why is he so... familiar?

All the while, I was expiramenting with this... vision. I kept waving my hoof in-front of their faces, made silly faces, made loud noises, etc... But everything distracting I made was ignored... Like I was a ghost.

Burnbot jumped down, and started to run around the chasm. Sonic saw this strategy, and followed it. Yet, he took off instantly, and so fast, that I was pushed to the side comically. "Wow, Sonic is really good!" Just then, I heard a speeding plane above me.

"Blue Leader, this is Yellow Sky; I have eyes on Burnbot!" He said through the walkie-talkie. "He's on the move! Over."

"Thanks, Tails!" replied Sonic. "Initiating Speeding Swing Surprise!"

Just then, Tails flew the plane down the chasm! Toggling something on his belt, his hand glowed yellowish-orangish.

Then, Sonic and Burnbot got down to the bottom layer at the jump, and they charged at each-other, with Sonic performing... a Sonic Boom? The difference was that it was much less quieter, had a really small white ring made, and Sonic go a little bit faster. Lets call this a Sonic Lightboom. (*1)

It was like it was in slow-motion. Tails flew the plane over to Sonic as they were about to collide. Tails, using the thing he activated, summoned a light-orange laser-like whip, and swung it at Sonic. Sonic caught the whip, and dodged Burnbot. They came back around, and Sonic kicked Burnbot in the face.

It was no longer in slow-mo, and Burnbot got launched into the rocky wall. "Get up get up get up!" Eggman ordered. He did as told, and noticed Tails flying the plane away. He launched one of his elastic claw-hands, and it hit Tails's plane!

It started to spiral down towards the ground. "Tails, Tails, bail!" Sonic worried. Tails pulled the eject pulley, but it was broken! I wish I could do anything to help.

Sonic ran to help, but was blocked by Burnbot. He launched a claw, and missed. Sonic panickly looked around to use the environment as a weapon. We both saw a boulder above Burnbot, so Sonic jumped up and knocked the boulder on to Burnbot. But he wasn't worried about Burnbot right now; he was worried for his friend's survival. Using the boulder to gain altitude, he jumped out of the chasm, only to see the plane close to crashing; his friend still in it.

"Tails, no!" Sonic shouted. The plane crashed with an explosion. Seeing nothing fly out, he ran towards the explosion.(*2)

I awoke with a start.

Celestia's POV

"Princess, we've got somepony demanding to get in, and he says he doesn't have any memory, except that he is convinced that he is a hedgehog." A guard warned me with a spell. "Bring him in." I replied, curious of who this was. Interesting... Somepony with serious amnesia... Though I do wonder about that hedgehog part... I stood up, and walked out of my private chamber. The guards saluted me.

I walked down stairs, just as an unfamiliar alicorn walked in. He has green eyes, white dots in his short, spiky mane; a great resemblance to my sister's mane. Luna... I'll be seeing you tomorrow... "Ah, finally. You're the... Princess of the Day... right?" He squinted. "Yes," That voice sounds familiar. I thought. "so, why have you come to visit me?"

"I was sent by this weird white pony with a red mane to come find you. I don't have any memory, I don't even know my own name, but I need your assistance."

"Wait, it's S-s-s..." He said before Luna could respond, held out that consonant for a few seconds. "Nope. Slipped away." (*3)

I exchanged glances with Luna, and nodded. "We think we may be able to help." We offered. "We know a group of ponies who may be able to help you get your memory. They live in a town west of here; the town is called Ponyville. Search for somepony by the name of Rainbow Dash."

He zoned out at the name, as if remembering something. He then nodded, and flew away at speeds that could make Rainbow Dash take a run in for her bits.

Twilight's POV

"So, I'm pretty sure you want to know why I called you here." I said.

"And especially why during the middle of the night." Said a sleepy Rarity.

"Yeah, what could be so important that we had to come here on such a short notice?"  asked Applejack. I laid down the letter, and read it out-loud.

Dear Twilight Sparkle,

I apologize for the late-night letter, but we got a mysterious visitor recently. He seems to be a blue alicorn with a short, spiky mane with a great resemblance to Luna's mane. I sent him over to Ponyville, so he should be there in a few minutes. He came for help, as for he has amnesia. This is a pretty serious amnesia, where he didn't even know his own name! And one last interesting feature about him is that he looks familiar, his voice sounds like the voice of a certain hedgehog, and we can't quite put our hoof on his name. Please prepare for his arrival.

Sincerely, Princess Celestia and Luna.

P.S. Luna noticed that when he flies, he leaves a blue trail with sparkles, with another great resemblance to Luna's mane.

"Ooh! Let's throw him a Surprise Welcome to Ponyville Party!" Pinkie Pie, bouncing in place.

"Aren't your Welcome Parties always a surprise for them?" asked Applejack.

"Oh yeah. I guess it is. I guess we will just surprise him even more."

"Hey, where is Rainbow Dash?" Asked Fluttershy.

A few minutes earlier...

Rainbow Dash's POV

I was told to come meet at the library. I started to fly, but noticed a blue unicorn standing on a cloud. Questioning this, I flew over towards him. I realized that it was an alicorn! A new alicorn! I flew infront of him.

"Hello! What's your name?"
