Rainbow just stood there, twitching and shivering. Those crazy girls would arrive any moment! She had to act fast. Having yelped "Help me!" hadn't really helped. Hay with it, she probably gave away her position already!
She swiveled her head, this way and that way. Finally making her decision, she dove into an alleyway as fast as her legs could carry her. She grimaced as she landed; she had made the mistake of flapping her crippled wings.
She peeped out, and she didn't have to wait long. Three streaks soon zapped by. She heard the girls' voices as the trio conversed.
"Where'd she go?"
"I don't see her anywhere."
"Antoinette's gone?"
Rainbow Dash forced herself to hold her groans of frustration within her. Her name was not Antoinette! What kind of a name was that for a mare like her, anyway?
"She was right here!"
"Rats! She must have gotten away."
The cyan pegasus smirked. Well, she'd certainly gotten that right. Her triumph was cut short by a wail, though. Wow, that blue girl was seriously intent on clinging to her like Discord's cotton candy clouds.
"Don't worry, Bubbles, we'll find another pony."
"Not one that can fly."
"Or talk."
Rainbow let out an inaudible gasp. Those three just wouldn't give up. . . she had to get home! What kind of a mess had she gotten herself into?! If only she'd listen to Twilight, if only. . . what if she was never to see her friends again-
Her legs buckled under her.
Yes, I know, pretty pathetic and short for a prologue. But it'll have to do for now. My intention is to work on this whenever I'm stuck on "Nemeses Nevermore", my current fanfic. Hopefully, both will turn out well.
