Canterlot castle/royal garden

It's sunset and Barbatos had just landed in the royal gardens with Asteroth in its arms, both mobile suits were badly damaged but Astoroth had the worst of it. Astoroth had a massive scar through its chest and is missing it's right arm, Barbatos only had minor damage like bullet holes and a scratch on its right shoulder. Barbatos put Astoroth on the ground and finally Rainbow Dash came out of the cockpit with a bleeding nose.

Three seconds later, Twilight and her friends teleported along Luna, and Twilight looks pissed. Twilight walked towards Rainbow Dash with a temper, then slapped her face.
"Rainbow Dash you fucking idiot. You could've been killed back there and worst of all you refused our help when you obviously needed it!" cried Twilight.

"I'm okay, though there's nothing to worry about Twilight." stated Rainbow

"But I was worried! I mean look at your face! It's bleeding!"

"It is? huh haven't noticed." said Rainbow as she wipes her nose with her hooves. "Well I best get going."

"Wait you're not going anywhere miss!"

"Don't worry I won't leave the castle. I'm just going back to my room." explained Rainbow Dash calmly

Rainbow Dash walks pass her friends and heads towards her room. Twilight is confused, Rainbow didn't even argue back it's as if she's a completely different pony. "Twilight darling are you alright?" asked Rarity

"She didn't even argue back Rarity, Something's wrong with her." proclaimed Twilight

Canterlot castle/Rainbow Dash's room

(RAINBOW DASH POV)

I open the door to my room and head straight to the bathroom. It's small but it's alright, I head to the sink to wash my face and to get all the blood off. I look at the mirror and I see something completely different, he looks like the species that Simon is but he looks completely different. He looks like he's in his teens, has short black messy hair, blue eyes and is quite short. His cloths consist of a green jacket that's very baggy and a dark blue vest.

"Rainbow. Can we come in?" asked Twilight who is outside my room. I should've shut the door behind me, but it doesn't really matter now. "Yeah sure just let me finish up, okay?" I replied. I finish washing my face and drying it, then I exit the bathroom. I see Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie as they all enter my room.

"Hi guys... Is something wrong? Is Simon alright?" I asked

"Simon's just fine Rainbow. He just woke up and Luna's treating his wounds. We're here because we're worried about you."

"Ever since you got in that mobile-do-hickey you've been acting different" added Applejack.

"Huh..different? Different how?"

"Well you see darling you've been acting more calm and easygoing. Not that it's a bad thing, it's just not like you." explained Rarity.

"Your face looks unhappy.... Almost emotionless. You know how I feel when I see an unhappy face!" said Pinkie Pie.

"When you were in that battle you were so... so... so scary... You killed those creatures... You were such a monster back there!" cried Fluttershy as she burst into tears. She was upset because I killed them. If I didn't, they would've destroyed the city. I don't know why, but I went over to Fluttershy and gave her a hug. She didn't stop crying though. "R-Rainbow...why are you hugging me?" questioned Fluttershy.

"Because your crying and I thought it would make you feel better." I reassured her. She pushed me away, I thought it would make here feel better, but I guess I was wrong.

"Rainbow, there is something wrong with you. I think it's P.T.S.D. I mean, think about it. You lost your wing and you went into a battle that could've gotten you killed." theorised Twilight

"No. That's not it"

"Um... is it Depression?"

"No."

"Um... is it your wardrobe?" implied Rarity

"No."

"You need apple cider?" suggested Applejack

"No."

"Then what is it?" all my friends asked at the same time except for Fluttershy

"I don't know." I lied to my friends. All of my friends look at me in confusion. It's as if looking at me like I'm some sort of alien. They're still my friends, right? I honestly hope that doesn't change. "Well, I'm going to get Celestia for help. You stay her." Twilight told me.

"Okay." I responded.

I sat down on my bed and waited for five minutes, in that time my friends just stepped outside my room and closed the door behind them. They were talking about me. I couldn't hear some of it but when Fluttershy shouted "BUT SHE'S A MONSTER!", that's when I knew they were talking about me. Hearing Fluttershy say that made me feel upset. I didn't show I was upset but I've know her since childhood, so of course I'd be upset when she said that. Then Princess Celestia came in with Twilight.

"Hello Rainbow Dash. How are you feeling?" the princess asked.

"I'm fine" I lied....ish. The princess came closer to the bed I was sitting on. Twilight wanted to help the princess so she followed while closing the door behind her. "Rainbow, um...me and Celestia are going to look into your mind. Is that okay with you?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah okay. This isn't going to hurt, right?"

"Don't worry Rainbow Dash. It won't hurt a bit. You just need to stay still." The princess answered. Twilight and Celestia used their magic to look inside my head. I had no idea what they were doing in there but I hope they could find out what was wrong with me. For some reason though, it took half an hour for them come back into reality and they looked upset.... Really upset. "So, what happened?" I asked Celestia as Twilight bursts into tears.

"Rainbow Dash, me and Twilight looked through your memories, and what we found was devastating. You have the memories of a boy named Mikazuki Augus. We looked through all of his memories from his childhood to his death." she explained as a tear drops down her face "Not only do you have his memories and personality but your soul turns out to be his soul. Rainbow Dash, you are Mikazuki Augus."

This explains why everypony is worried about me but to be honest I kinda knew this ever since I got in Barbatos, but I wanted to keep it a secret. There's no point in that now. "Rainbow, I-I'm so sorry..." Twilight cried as she came to hug me. "Y-you risked your life to save everyone you knew and cared about...a-and you died saving them... I'm sorry!"

"Twilight, I'm sorry you had to see that. I hoped you never would've seen it." I say to her "I hope it doesn't change our friendship..."

"Twilight I think we need to address this to your friends." suggested Celestia.

"Yeah um...okay." responded Twilight. Me, Twilight and Celestia then walked outside my room to see all of my friends. They didn't look happy yet they were not upset, except for Fluttershy who seems to hate me at the moment. "So... what's wrong with her?"questioned Applejack.

"Okay let me explain." said Celestia "Your friend Rainbow Dash is what you would call a resurrected. A type of pony who used to be somepony else. They can be from a completely different world, universe or from the same world."

"So you're saying is that Rainbow used to be somepony else? That doesn't make any sense! How come she didn't tell us before? She's never acted like this before either!"

"Well, depending on the age of the pony or how they died, their soul can forget their previous life. But if they find something from their old life and use it, they become the pony they used to be."

"Celestia how do you know this?" Twilight asked

"Because Starswirl used to be a wizard called Merlin." answered Celestia.

I only hope that my friends will still accept me, especially after everything that's just happened. "Guys, I know this is a lot to take in. Especially after everything that's just happened. I just hope that were still friends." I tell them. There was a silence in the room for a good minute. Then Rarity broke the silence. "Darling, this won't change our friendship. I promise!"

"Yeah sugar-cube. I'm still your friend, but it will feel strange that you're a completely different pony now. But nothing else has changed." Applejack confessed

"Even though I'm gonna have to figure out your likes and dislikes again because you're, you know, different pony an all. I'm your friend till the end."

"No! You've changed Rainbow, and I hate it. You killed all those creatures without remorse. You looked like you enjoyed killing things... I'm sorry but...I can't." Then Fluttershy ran away from me, I only killed to protect the ponies I care for, not for fun. But still, am I still a monster?

"Guys I'm gonna need some time alone... if you don't mind." I exclaimed before going back into my room.

Meanwhile at the Gjallerhorn warship

Char Aznable is at the med bay were the doctors are treating his head injury. It wasn't serious, but it was bleeding and l he didn't go to the medical staff, he would've gotten an infection. Then commander Garma came through the med bay doors to see Char. "I take it the mission didn't go well?" Garma pointed out.

"No. Even though the mission was a success I still didn't defeat the Gundam pilots."

"Pilots?" Garma questioned.

"Their were two of them, Garma." confirmed Char as he puts an ice pack on his head. "And one of them was Barbatos."

"Impossible! Reports say that Barbatos and its pilot died in action!"

"Yeah, well the report was half right. Barbatos is still alive but it has a different pilot. A female pilot." Char corrected.

"Char, for your own good I'm changing the subject. It's about one of the subjects that we captured. We are going to interact with it and the captain wants you to do it."

"Why me?"

"I don't know, but he just wants you to do it."

"Alright then. I have nothing better to do anyway." Char then got up from his medical bed and walked straight to the prisoner barracks. They put the subjects in prisons because they are quite aggressive towards the scientists. The scientist wore mostly white clothing while the head scientists wore purple clothing, their clothing consists of a science coat yellow gloves and black boots. Char asked one of the scientists "Is this the subject I'm talking to?"

"No sir. The subject is in the next cell." The female scientist confirmed. "Be careful though. It can do a lot of damage with that horn." the scientist added. Char just nodded in response The cell door then opened to reveal a female. A very light purple unicorn with a dark purple mane that also had a light blue streak in it. Char entered as the cell door closed behind him. "Who are you, and what do you want?" She asked.

"Well my name is Char Aznable. I am the pilot of the Red Comet, and right now I just want to talk."

"Why should I talk to you?"

"Because if you don't, our scientists will probably dissect you."

"Ha! I could just teleport away from them anytime I want and get back home."

"Even if you could you're in space. There's no way that you would get back to your planet. You will die out there."

"I can try!"

"Would you want to risk it?" he asked. The unicorn didn't know what to do, she was trapped on a ship with so many soldiers that could kill her for attempting to escape. She then sat back down on the bed looking like she is about to cry. "Listen I don't want to hurt you, but we will if you don't help us." threatened Char

"Why... what do you need help with?" She questioned

"First, we want to know more about you and your planet. Then once we establish a base of operations we can figure out how to get home. "Char explained

"Wait, you're lost in space? How did you get lost?"

"We were testing a prototype version of a warp drive capable of taking us around the galaxy. But when we started it, it malfunctioned and stopped working. It turns out our ship hasn't got enough energy to power the warp drive, it needs to be as powerful as a black hole for it to work." Char explained "We need to get on that planet before our supply run out." he added

The unicorn was processing the information, it was too much for her mind. "That sounds like star adventure material to me. But I will help you if you promise to take me home deal"

"Deal. by the way what's your name?"

"Oh! It's Starlight Glimmer"

"Well, it was lovely to meet you Starlight. I'll see you tomorrow." promised Char as he exits the prison cell. Char thought the unicorn was naive and too trusting, but either way she is useful to him and his plans. "Sir, how did it go in there?" asked the scientist

"It went well." said Char as he just walks away back to his room. Today hasn't been a good for him. First it was the Gundams, and then it was the head injury. But he will not fail next time. Next time it will be different.

Simon's room

Simon is awake on his bed while Luna is treating his head injury, Simon didn't know why she was helping but he didn't care he just wants to get his head fixed up. Luna mainly used healing magic to treat his wounds. The reason why she's helping him is because she wants to know more about him. "Alright I healed the wound. You may suffer from headaches still, but it will only last for a day or two." explained Luna. "Simon, may I ask you a few questions?"

"Why?" simon asked.

"Because I know nothing about you.... nopony does." replied Luna "First question. Where did you come from?"

"Well I got nothing better to do. I'm from planet earth where all the humans live. If your asking the country I'm from  The United States of America. The state where I'm from is California."

"Okay then, so you're an alien. Even though it was obvious, I'm glad you confirmed it. Second question. What are your special talents?"

"Well you see I used to be an engineer, that's a person who fixes machines. But when I was fired I became a build fighter."

"A build fighter? Whats a build fighter?"

"A build fighter is someone who builds model version's of mobile suits, like for example Asteroth. You put them on a machine called a Gunpla arena and then you get to control your Gunpla and fight the other Gunpla. You can also upgrade it to give it more advantages in battle."

"That sounds amazing."

"Yeah it does, but you should see it for your own eyes. You might like it."

"I think I may. Anyways third question. Do you have any loved ones? Because Cadence would kill me if I didn't get an answer."

"... well this interview is over. Goodbye."

"But you didn't answer my que-"

"I said goodbye!" with that Luna just walked out of Simon's room. Simon never liked talking about his love life, but lets just say it was horrible for now. Simon then shut the door behind Luna and then he went straight to bed.

Outside of Simon's room there was a confused princess of the night, she wondered why Simon acted like that well whatever it is it's not her problem. she headed to her room when she saw Pinkie Pie just sitting in front of the door with her hair down, she went over to her and asked "Is everything alright?"

"No, not really princess" Pinkie replied

"Whats wrong?"

"Well Princess Celestia and Twilight went into Rainbows room and cast a spell to see into her memories. They both watched the whole Iron Blooded Orphans series from her point of view, It turns out that the reason why dashie is acting so strange is because shes a resurrected version of Mikazuki" pinkie explained

"I see, but I can sense that's not the reason you're upset"

"*sigh* I'm upset because Dashie's upset, even though she doesn't show emotions anymore she's hiding them very well."

Luna didn't like seeing ponies upset either so she did something that she has never done in a long time "Pinkie, I'll talk to Rainbow if that's okay. I feel that she needs somepony to talk to, so I'll talk to her." Said Luna

"Are you sure? Because I was going to do it." Asked

"How about you plan a party for her? You know to cheer her up." Pinkie Pie's hair then just poof's back to normal (for Pinkie standards). "Thats a great idea Luna! I'll get started right away!" she agreed. Pinkie then zoomed off out of the castle, probably to plan the party. Luna knocked on Rainbows door. "Come in." she responded "Hey Rainbow. If it's not too much to ask, but do you, um... want to play on the Playstation with me?" Luna sort of begged because she didn't want Rainbow to be alone.

It took a minute for Rainbow to come up with an answer. "Yes...I would like that." Rainbow smirked. That was the first time she had smiled since she got out of the mobile suit.

Luna's gaming room

Rainbow and Luna entered the room, It was quite messy. There were cans of Pepsi, bags of Doritos and video game cases everywhere. "Sorry for the mess. I've haven't had the time to tidy up in here." Luna apologized.

"It's okay. I don't mind." Rainbow reassured. Luna then turned on her PlayStation 4 logged in and started her game Ponycraft, it's basically Minecraft, but most creatures and player characters are replaced with ponies. Luna then gave a spare controller to Rainbow Dash, it was a controller that is mainly used by earth ponies so it was more boxier and a lot bigger, the only reason Luna has this controller is because it came with the console.

The two played played ponycraft for what seems like hours before Rainbow asked this question. "Do you think I'm a monster?"

"No Rainbow. Why do you ask?" Luna inquired.

"Because Fluttershy thinks I enjoyed killing. Even though I killed them so I can protect the city, what Fluttershy said really made me think. I never really hesitated when it came to killing the people inside the mobile suits. I thought I was doing the right thing."

"You did what you had to do, Rainbow. If you didn't kill them, more ponies would've suffered. I believe that was the right thing to do." stated Luna. She turned to her right finding Rainbow staring at her face. She looked like she has been staring for a while now. "Rainbow what is it? Is their something on my face?" Luna questioned

"No. I just think you look cool." Rainbow answered. This caused Luna to blush.

"I, um... think you look cool as well" chuckled Luna. They both looked at the TV screen to find that a creeper had just exploded in front of Rainbow Dash's character, "Well, I'm dead." she said calmly and then leaned on to Luna. This was the beginning of a new relationship between the two.
