And it was then that she could see herself, flying with the Wonderbolts. She whipped her head around as the vivid sight whirled around her. It seemed so real, and yet-
Just like that, it was gone. Frightened, Dash called up to her friend. “Twilight?”
“Shh…” Twilight responded, and they continued to climb.
More visions. They battled an Ursa Major. More flashes. They crossed the great Equuish Plains, where nopony had ventured before. More explosions. They defeated an evil being, so great that its form could not truly be divined.
Dash continuously found the assaults on her mind and being boggling. She wasn’t sure how well Gummy was holding up on top of her head, or how Twilight knew about all that they were seeing. All she knew was that she was so much closer to the heaven that she longed for than she had ever been before.
And at last, they emerged at the top. Light enveloped them. Twilight stepped off the ladder, and onto the great whiteness that expanded forever around her. Dash climbed up next to her, and Gummy leapt off her head, landing with a soft pat on the blankness.
As they peered down below, they could see all that was. They saw the creation of Equestria, the banishment of the younger princess, and the founding of Ponyville. It was all there, right before their eyes. Dash looked up, and saw her friends surrounding her; cheering her on, and giving praise to her accomplishments. She couldn’t comprehend it all. But there it was.
“Take life slowly,” a voice whispered next to her. Dash knew it was Twilight, but she didn’t bother turning her head; she was too busy letting all the emotions she had never known before envelop her. “Don’t let life pass you by.”
She closed her eyes.
She woke up. |
