Prelude

"They can take you back, Dashie," Scootaloo said to the elderly figure sitting on an armchair against the cloud wall opposite her.

Rainbow Dash, ripe in years and rich in life, lifted her head and looked back at Scootaloo. Hey eyes widened as she stared back, tenderness glazed over her gaze.

"They'll give you a second chance, and they'll let you relive your life. All the way..."

"...from the very beginning."

Through all the burdens of old age- through her Arthritis, which made her body ache sometimes to the point of immobilization; through the wrinkles that cracked across the skin of her aged face and joints; through her mane whose colors had faded and grayed, its once bold colors now lackluster and dull; through the ability to use her wings becoming weaker and weaker, one of her main sources of joy- Rainbow Dash began to feel her heart beating with an emotion she had long forgotten for what seemed like a cold, lonesome eternity as she sat there, rocking back and forth on the cloud chair in the home that had housed her throughout her entire life.

"Change one thing, fulfill one wish."

Dash slowly closed her heavy eyelids, a soft smile of the joyful reminiscence of memories situated upon her folded and wrinkled face.

"You know what you'd wish for, don't you? Scootaloo asked, offering a gentle grin in return.

For a moment, the room was encased in silence, while Rainbow Dash thought quietly inside her mind.

Dash thought about her family. She thought about her friends, the times they shared together, how they would enjoy the mere company of each other as they spent time together on countless occasions.

Dash thought about her.

After a few seconds, Rainbow Dash, her eyes still shut, nodded her head back to Scootaloo. A warm tear escaped out from under the bottom of one of her eyes, rolling gradually down her cheek. Her lips were still turned up in a smile.

"But just remember..."

Rainbow Dash's eyelids found themselves creaking open once again, re-transfixed upon Scootaloo's stare. She glanced back towards Scootaloo with her bright magenta eyes.

"...It will be the last thing you ever do."
