Sunset's POV
"Come on Twi! Don't wanna keep Dash waiting."
"Well, you are lugging a laptop!"
We were heading down the sidewalk from Twilight's apartment to the froyo shop down the street.
"Oof!"
I knocked into a girl wearing a cowgirl hat.
"Sunset? Aren't you supposed to be over at Menchie's fro yo?" AJ readjusted her hat while standing up.
"Uh yeah, but we're a bit behind schedule. We were just studying for our calculus te-" My phone started to ring. Looking at the caller ID, it read a irregular name; Lyra Heartstrings.

Lyra's POV
Bon bon and I were sitting at Menchie's when I noticed that new student, Rainbow Dash. She sat down on the bench outside and started tapping her foot. Everyone at school had heard about what happened with Mr.Dumbbell right before break and I felt sorry for her. That's when Flash showed up.
Flash Sentry was the school player, hitting on EVERY SINGLE GIRL, including me and my girlfriend. Flash put his arm around her shoulders and she stood up. After yelling at him, she started walking away. Flash took out his phone and said a few words. A black van started down the road, slowly following the limping girl.
"Babe, can we go outside? I wanna check out something." I got up, walked out, and started jogging slowly behind Flash, keeping my distance. I pointed out the van and Flash to Bonbon and she understood what was happening.
Sentry was gaining on Dash, foot after foot. Suddenly, Rainbow jerked into a small alley, dropping whatever was in her hand. Flash walked into the alley. The black van parked in front of it and presumably unlocked the doors.
Flash and his cronie, Sound Barrier, walked out holding an unconscious which I realized was Rainbow. She was shoved in the van it drove off.
"Bonbon, I'm gonna call Sunset."
I entered the number into my phone. I knew it off the top of my head because I was giving her relationship advice.
"Um, hey Sunset."
"Hi Lyra, what's up?"
"Uh, so I saw Rainbow Dash outside Menchie's and Flash showed up and..."
"What happened to Dash?" An unfamiliar voice asked.
"Who's that Sunset?" I asked.
"That's Applejack, but that's besides the point. What happened to Rainbow?"
"Flash....kidnapped her." I heard someone gasp and then fall back on a wall.
"Thanks for telling us Lyra, but we gotta go. Bye."

AJ's POV
I fell back to the outer wall of Rarity's boutique and started hyperventilating. Dash was kidnapped. This can't be happening. Not poor Dashie who had been through hell and back. Not Rainbow who was obsessed with skittles. Not Rainbow Eden Dash who I loved. I was going to kill Flash Sentry.
"AJ, we need your help. Applejack!" Sunset said while shaking my shoulders. I snapped back into the world to find that I was no longer outside, but lying on a couch in the boutique.
"Uh, yeah, I'm here. What do ya need?" I sat up and saw Twilight on her laptop, looking at me.
"We need Dash's phone number." Twi said.
I pulled out my phone, pulled up the number, and tossed to her.
Getting off the couch, I noticed Rarity on the phone with someone who was freaking out. I walked over to Twi and looked at the screen. It had a map with a little blinking light, which was moving.
"I'm tracking Rainbow's phone. It has gone about ten miles north from here and...they just got out of the car." She turned around to face me. "Applejack, Dash is not coming out of this unscathed. She will have mental and physical trauma, which really isn't good combined with whatever happened in her past. From what I could figure out, she was abused. Like, really badly for a long time. I'm surprised she hasn't completely shut down. After this, she'll need someone to drag her out of the demons of her mind. Applejack, that person is you. She trusts you, no... She loves you. She's not as safe with anyone else, not even her uncle. Applejack do you love her?"
"With all of my heart. I would die for her."
"Well then, go kick Flash Sentry's kidnapping ass!"

That was really emotional. Like even for me.
