‘Sup?
I got it!
Whew! Close one!
Rainbow Dash!? What are you doing here!?
I snuck in. I was wondering what kind of egghead stuff you were doing.
It’s not egghead stuff, it’s science.
Science – egghead – same thing.
What are you doing anyways?
I’m trying to add the final ingredient to a potion I’ve been working on ever since I was in magic kindergarten!
But somepony keeps ruining my concentration!
Oh!- hehe – sorry.
Thank you! Now just hold still.
Well! That was . . . unexpected!
Uh . . . are you okay?
That . . . was . . . AWESOME!
Well, good to know you’re not hurt.
What’s in this stuff?
Careful! It might be dangerous!
Dangerous? How? Will it turn you into a monster?
No.
Does it make you invisible?
No.
Does it transform you into a zombie!?
Technically that’s a monster. So – no.
Is it a love potion?
No! It’s none of those things!
Then why is it so dangerous?
. . . because . . . I don’t really know what it is.
But you made it!
Yes. I did.
But if you don’t know what it is, then how do you know if it’s dangerous?
I don't!
But you . . . made . . . it . . . egghead . . .
My brain hurts.
Listen Rainbow Dash – just because I made it doesn’t mean I’m completely certain that it’s safe to drink.
In theory this potion is supposed to be a talent enhancer.
A talent what?
A talent enhancer. It should increase a pony’s natural talents by a significant amount.
Par exemple,
If I drank it then it would make my magic extremely powerful.
If Applejack drank it then her physical abilities, as well as her apple-bucking, would become heightened.
If Rarity Drank it she would become more… inspired? And… creative with her fabric making.
Fluttershy – her ability to interact with animals.
Now Pinkie Pie -
What about me!? What would happen if I drank it?
Well – in theory - your dexterity would increase, as well as your physical strength and visual aptitude.
Oh! And you’d probably be able to fly really fast.
Now Pinkie Pie? It should turn her into a crazy party pony – but then again – she already IS a crazy party pony.
Would it even work on her then? Maybe it would turn her into an even crazier pony!?
But – how do you get crazier than Pinkie Pie!?
I need to write all of this down.
RAINBOW DASH!?
What in Celestia’s name did you do!? I can’t believe you just drank all of it! What were you thinking!?
I should’ve known you would drink it.
I’ll have to make it all over again!
Oh my gosh! I need to record the effects!
I don’t feel any different – gah!
Hey! What’s the big idea?!
Let me go!
I need to monitor every stage of the potion – there could be terrible side effects!
This is what you get for not thinking ahead!
But I gotta know if that stuff actually works! I need to fly!
Now can I fly?
Well… all of your readings are normal… so I suppose so. Yes.
But! Gently! I’m still not sure if the potion –
. . . works.
What the?
How’d I get all the way up here?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWESOME!!!
Oh no! This is bad!
Whoooooa! With this power I can do anything!
I could easily do a Sonic Rainboom. Even a . . .
. . . double rainboom!
Here we go!
Oh Yeah Rainbow Dash ! Go Rainbow Dash go !
Rainbow Dash! You have to slow down! Nopony has ever gone this fast before! The side effects could be disastrous!
Rainbow Dash?
Rainbow Dash!
Raaaaaaainbow Daaaaaaaash!
Rainbow . . .
Where did she go?
Where am I!?
The City of Townsville . . . is under attack!
Ever wonder how I’m able to talk? It’s because I –
Hey you!
I think we need to teach you a lesson! Right girls?
Yes!
Oh! - uh - right?
Then let’s go!
Hold it right there!
That – Wasn’t – Very –
Cool!
Waaaaaait! I surrender!
You can talk!?
And you give up?
Then apologize!
I’m sorry! I’ll never do it again!
That’s better! I see you’ve learned your lesson. Now shoo!
Hey! It’s getting away!
Wait – no – I – AAAAAAGH!
A pony!
Check out this tattoo!
She has wings!
Did you see the way she fought!
Hey! Cut it out!
She can talk!
Let’s keep her!
No rush girls! Let’s give her a head start.
Think you’re faster than me huh?
So is this a race?
Is it okay if I call you Antoinette?
What’s going on!? Why can’t I fly!?
No – I need to monitor every stage of the potion’s effects – there could be terrible side effects!
This is what you get for not thinking ahead!
Oh no! The potion! It must have worn off!
Help me!
Rainbow Dash!
Pinkie Pie?
Rainbow Dash!
Pinkie Pie! Where are you!?
Over here!
Where!?
Right here silly billy! Yoink!
Where’d she go?
I don’t see her anywhere.
Antoinette’s gone???
She was right here!
Rats! She must’ve gotten away.
Don’t worry Bubbles, we’ll find another pony.
Not one that can fly!
. . . or talk!
I can talk!
You’re not a pony!
Yeeeeeah . . . get Spike.
Dear Princess Celestia – today I learned not to take things that don’t belong to me.
Because i didn't think ahead, i ended up hurting a lot of my friends.
And that's the last thing i ever wanted to do.
Because of my greed I wound up in a pretty bad spot,
and if it weren’t for my friend Pinkie Pie, who . . . who . . .
What did you do!?
Well, after you disappeared, Twilight made another potion and made me drink it.
It tasted like snozberries!
I’m not sure what it was, but after drinking it I was suddenly able to see through the fabric of time and space.
Which, by the way, also tastes like snozberries.
Pinkie Pie helped. And if it weren’t for her I would have never made it back to Ponyville!
From now on I’ll make sure to ask before taking something that isn’t mine.
Wait! We’re not supposed to take things that aren’t ours?
What do I do with this then?
