I was going down the trail on my 17-speed going faster then I had ever gone. Nothing holding me back. My bike was carving the dirt leaving huge and epic dust trails. I could easily see why Rainbow Dash loved flying. The speed, the adrenaline, the wind in my face and the constant thought that a false move could result in death. It was awesome. I wish I had my goggles then with the dust from the trail hitting my eyes but for the moment it didn't matter in the slightest. I only focused on the trail I was facing ahead. Carve right, brake, speed up, drift, repeat. No matter how many times I did that it never got old. I decided to stop and take a break on this brutal 15 mile trail. I got a water bottle and took a few swigs while admiring the canyon below.
It seemed a good enough time to take some pictures. I got my HD camera out and started snapping. I rested for a good 10 min while taking pictures of the canyon. After I had gotten what had seemed to be enough photos I got back to the trail slowly getting myself back up to speed. Carve right, brake, speed up, drift, repeat. I even pulled a few jumps. I then got to a point in the trail where it told me to stop. I slammed on the brakes and slid to a halt. I looked at the sign ahead, it read: Large crest, Large fall.
"I better be careful at this part." I thought to myself.
My phone started to ring just then. I took the buzzing phone out of my pocket and answered it.
"Hello?" I said.
"Hey Elliott." I heard my mom's voice. "I was just calling to see if you were ok." She said.
"Yeah Im fine. Why would you think otherwise?" I asked.
"Well there were these strange mini sandstorms reported by where you are. I got a little worried about you."
"Mini sandstorms? In the mountains!" I replied.
"Yeah they just started popping up around and it just made me nervous." She said.
"Well Im fine. I just have a few miles left so I'll see you soon." I hung the phone up and put it back in my pocket.
I set out again riding the dangerous cliff edges and and twists and turns. I was doing completely fine, maybe getting a little close to the edge. Suddenly, a freak dust storm came across the trail. I was blinded. I could only feel the ground under me move. Then I felt no ground beneath me at all!
"OH CRAP!" I yelled in shock as I fell off the mountainside. We bounced painfully down the mountain when suddenly I stopped.
I was disoriented and weak but I Got up wincing at the pain in my whole body. I looked around and saw my bike in pieces. I looked to the left and saw the only way I could go, a path that led into a dark forest where no sunlight broke through the trees. Reluctantly I pressed on. It felt strange, almost otherworldly in the mysterious forest. The plants seeming to get wilder and more abundant. I slowly got weaker the further I went. I fell to the ground moaning in pain. I could feel though that I was changing somehow. I tried to crawl but my arm wouldn't move! I called out.
"Help anybody please!" but I heard nothing. My vision was blurring and I was starting to fade into unconsciousness. The last thing I saw before blacking out was a pale blue figure that landed ahead of me. After that; black.
I woke up feeling like I was bruised all over my body. My vision was still blurry and everything looked fuzzy. I heard a voice next to me as I groaned.
"Oh thank Celestia you're awake! You looked like your wings gave out when I found you."
"What?" I said in a groggy voice.
"You must be new around here. I've never seen you before. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Rainbow Dash."
"Wait. You're Rainbow Dash!" I exclaimed realizing who I was talking to. "Dear Celestia" I said while blacking out.
Once again I woke up feeling a little better than last time. Maybe it was all a dream. I looked around and saw that I was in a hospital room.
"So the fall really happened." I said aloud.
I decided to get out of bed to make sure nothing was broken. When I got out of bed though I had fallen flat on my face. I saw in shock that I had hooves instead of hands. I quickly found a mirror and nearly fainted at what I saw. I was a pony, but not just any pony. No I was my own creation. "Blaze Streak". I could tell with my black coat and wings, red and black mane and tail along with my cutie mark of three fireballs spiraling. I backed away while trying to grasp the situation I was in. I racked my head trying to recall what had happened.
"I was riding down The Gauntlet and fell off the mountain when I was blinded by a sandstorm." I thought to myself. "I survived the fall but sustained major injuries. I walked into the dark forest and soon collapsed due to sheer exhaustion. Before blacking out I saw what I believe to be Rainbow Dash land in front of me. I woke up confirming that it was indeed Rainbow Dash that saved me. Then I black out again. I wake up a second time here and then find out that I am a pony that I created using an online game."
I finally concluded that either I was transformed into a pony when going through some portal in the Everfree forest, or I am either insane or dead. I simply went with the first and walked out of my room into the world of Equestria.
Well thats the first chapter everypony! Hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I had enjoyed re-writing this. Please comment on what you think.
