Hey everyone. RBDash here with another chapter of my story. With me being in the full swing of school now, my writing is going to be pretty scarce, but always remember, I haven't given up on this story. Will SOMEONE please read the poll on my page?! But anyway I hope you like this chapter. Just to say, I do not own My Little Pony or any of its trademark characters or items. MLP: FiM is owned by Hasbro. Please Enjoy the chapter.

I really do feel stupid for not expecting the next dream. But hey. I'm not really used to having dreams, since I'm not the most used to it. The closest thing I've ever had to a dream so far has been nothing but nightmare about finding my parents with a bullet in their chest. But anyway, like it or not, it happened. I'll try to do my best description.

I found myself in what looked like some sort of great hall. At least, it looked like a great hall compared to what I see in history books. Hmm. Maybe Equestria isn't that much different from us.

This great hall was different from the ones I saw in books in a few ways, though. The first thing that really comes to mind is that everything is shiny. The floor, the walls, the ceiling, and even the decorations. Being totally honest it was amazing. I never saw anything like it. It was all just so much to take in. Too much to be honest.

Wondering where I was, I walked over towards one of the windows that was nearby. I looked through it.

And was amazed at what I saw. Apparantly I was at a really high level, because when I looked down, I could see everything. And I mean EVERYTHING. It looked like some sort of city. There were all kinds of buildings everywhere. Strangest of all. The buildings were somewhat like the great hall I was in- shiny. Everything I looked at sparkled. Everything I noticed nearly blinded me with brightness. But, there was one last strange thing. All of the inhabitants were ponies. But that's not the weird part. Like everything else in the city, even the ponies sparkled. They were small from my angle and point of view. But I could still see their bodies shine.

"Whoa, this is... Wow!" I said to myself at a loss for words.

Unfortunately, before I had anymore time to take anything else in, my thoughts were interrupted by a female voice, not familiar, that said, "Twilight. I'm so happy to see you!"

I turned myself in the direction of the voices and found my self behind the familiar ponies I saw in last nights dream. But In addition to those ponies I saw three larger ponies. Not slightly larger surprisingly larger.

The first was the smallest out of the three, the one that was actually the closest to being a normal sized pony. This one looked like a female, due to the long eyelashes. Just to clear up all of the ponies I saw were female. Long eyelashes is the only thing I have to go off of appearance-wise. Anyway, The mare had a light pink pelt and pink-purple eyes. The first thing I noticed was that this pony wasn't just a unicorn or a pegasus; it was both. It had a horn and wings. I actually started to wonder if some of these ponies were like that. Anyway, she had a multicolored mane like a few of the other ponies I saw in my other dream. This one had a moderate pink/light yellow/ purple mane and tail. It doesn't take too long to notice that the pony I was observing was wearing some sort of crown, which later confused me due to the fact that all three of the new ponies were wearing crowns. I decided to give up the question for the moment. I decided to ask Rainbow when I woke up. Finally the symbol on her rear was some sort of heart made of diamonds. A crystal heart.

The next one was a really dark navy blue pegasus-unicorn. This one, as I just said was also wearing a crown; confusing. That's about the only normal thing I can say about this one. Her mane wasn't multicolored. But I can't even begin to describe the shape of it's mane. It was flowing. Literally. It had some sort of wavy motion. Sorta like it was floating. Still, the mane was a lighter shade of blue. Same for the tail which also flowed. Lastly it had some sort of cresent mark surrounded by black on its rear.

The last one was a pure white pegasus-unicorn. It was wearing the biggest crown of all. It also had the most colorful mane/tail of all, in my opinion. This time it was a combination of royal Blue, Sky Blue, Light Green, and Bright Pink. Other than that, it looked like the other two. Except, that it had a picture of the sun on her rear.

I didn't know their names yet, but like last time, I would learn their names by conversation. I had to listen carefully to the names though. I still remember the other five's names though: Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie, and Fluttershy. I also remembered their respective colors and looks.

"It's great too see you, too Cadence. Where's Shining Armor?" Twilight asked.

The pink pegasus-unicorn, who I figured to be Cadence, replied, "Shining is on royal duty at Saddle Arabia. So for now I have the entire castle to myself."

"Ahem," Applejack interrupted,"Ah believe we've got a problem here, Princess Celecstia. Our friend Rainbow's gon' missin', we were just wonderin' if ya could help us out if ya knew anythin'." This let me know that they were talking about Rainbow, back on my world. I had a feeling that I was going to want to watch this.

"Twilight has already written my about your problem," said the white one," I thought about your situation for sometime and I only came up with one possible solution. If you would follow me." Now, I knew I needed to follow. This might help explain what's going on and how Rainbow got on my world/ how to get her back.

The ponies started to follow Celestia, the big white female, to a certain location. I followed, unnoticed. For some reason they couldn't see me following them, but for the current moment, I was fine with that.

After a few minutes of following, the ponies stopped in a small room. The room was empty except for only one thing: a mirror. What could possibly be in here? Guess I'll just have to watch and see...

"What's in here?" Fluttershy asked, Looking around for something else. Being totally honest, I was too. I didn;t see many things of interest except the mirror.

"This mirror is a gateway," said the black pony. Even though all I was doing was starring, my mind was going totally out of control. I was trying to piece everything together. But at the same time, I knew I needed to stop so I could learn the entire story and then put everything together. I told my mind to shutup so I could listen.

"It is a gateway to another world." The white one said. That's when I went crazy. Some of it started to make sense now. As I pieced together what I heard from Rainbow on Earth, the riddle, and from the multiple dreams I had, I deduced that somehow Rainbow had gotten through that portal, ended up in my world and needs to get back. But then I thought of the holes in my story. First off, did this portal even lead to Earth? Second, I left out everything from the riddle. But for that moment, it's all I have, including the fact that the other end of the portal must've been in one of teh statues over at Central High, which is in ashes, and the additional fact that Rainbow has a limited amount of time to get to the portal.

"The only place that Rainbow could have gone was through this?" Twilight asked. I could only feel sorry for her and her friends. I wanted to tell them, but the wouldn't be able to hear me. All I could do was shutup and listen.

"More than likely. May I ask a question? How long was Rainbow Dash missing?" The white one said.

"She went missing about two days ago, the day before yesterday. Why?" Twilight responded

"This gateway opens once. Once every thirty moons. Unfortunately, the gateway is now open, and we fear that Rainbow Dash must have gone through this." The black one answered.

"Well since the gateway's open, can't we go in? Maybe we can look for her and find her." Rarity asked.

"I'm afraid I cannot let you do that. My sister and I fear that this world is too vast to go into. There is the complete possibility that you might get lost looking for her. There is also the fact that the gate might close while you're inside." Celestia said

"Well how long is the darn thing open fer?" Applejack asked.

"This gateway opens for three days, every thirty moons. After that, the gateway closes for thirty more moons." The black one replied.

"Well, I think that three days is more than enough time to look for Rainbow Dash." Rarity said.

"Unfortunately this is the third night that that gateway is open. The moment the midnight hour strikes among us, the gateway will seal itself. And we cannot risk losing anypony," the black one explained.

"I'm sorry but, I have to say that Princess Luna is right. We can't lose anypony, and there are about twenty minutes until midnight. There's a very slim chance that Rainbow would come back." Cadence said.

Everything was silent. No one made a sound. All of the ponies bowed their heads in silence. I could understand why. The had lost someone who must've been a dear friend to them.

Suddenly Applejack rose her head and started to speak.

"It doesn't matter if we got twenty minutes or a week. I'm goin' in to save Rainbow, a ya'll won't stop me." Everyone raised their head in shock.

"Applejack, you can't go. If you don't come back then we won't have the Element of Honesty." Twilight replied.

"Ah don't care. Besides, if we don't have one of the Elements, we can't use any of 'em. Now, Ah'm willin' to go in, stand next to that portal and wait for Rainbow if ah have to. Ah don't know about ya'll, but it would be nice if at least one of mah friends could help me in this."

After a long moment of silence one of the ponies finally decided to speak up.

"Well, I, for one, think that Applejack has a point. We leave nopony behind. Now who's with us?" Rarity spoke.

"Well... umm... I don't really see too much harm in it. I'll be happy to go... If that's okay with you and all" Fluttershy whispered quietly.

"I can't wait to go this new place with new things and new ponies and other-"

Applejack placed a hoof on Pinkie's mouth before she even had a chance to go off. Meanwhile Twilight turned to Celestia.

"Well then, it's settled. My friends and I are going to go the other side of that portal and wait for Rainbow Dash." Twilight had addressed to Celestia.

Dash? Where did the Dash come from? I had thought to myself.

Celestia sighed. "I guess I have no choice. I must warn you though that there is not much time until midnight when the portal closes."

"All we must say is to do as much as you can. For if you do not return with Rainbow Dash, the Elements will be useless, and Equestria will be thrown into complete chaos. We're all counting on you," Luna said.

"You can count on us," Twilight said.

The 5 ponies turned to the mirror, with Twilight in the front. Carefully, Twilight placed her hoof on the mirror and the mirror rippled like water. Without a single word Twilight walked into the mirror. Soon the other ponies followed.

As soon as the ponies walked through the dream ended and I woke up in real life.

I took a little time to think of what I just witnessed. Twilight and the others have gone through the portal into the human world to wait for Rainbow. And they only have approximately twenty minutes until it turns into midnight and the portal closes.

Immediately I started to wake Rainbow up. I shoved and shook her and called her name quietly. After she still continued to snore, (it was LOUD!) I gradually rose my voice louder. Until I finally screamed "Rainbow. Wake up!"

Rainbow finally started to stir. "You better have a good reason for waking me up," she said, cranky from being woken up.

"Yeah. We need to get you back to Equestria, tonight."

Well, it's finally done. WOOHOO! After so much, It's complete. Things are being set into motion. Also, in future chapters, I'm thinking about putting chapters of Dereun's past in the story. But for now I'm super excited to see what you guys think. Also, will SOMEBODY please answer my poll. I need to know which characters you like so I can write better stories later in time. Anyway I'll be back, until then peace.
