The Town and Rainbow Cell's Home

Once you walked through the gateway and the blushing White Cell guard, you officially entered the outskirts of Dashville proper. The town itself resembles an organic version of Los Pegasus. Another pegasus friend has once sent you a postcard from the city so you had some ideas of what it looks like. Like its real life counterpart, the tall buildings around downtown are built in the ancient Pegasi-style; their elongated columns and domed roofing made from clouds are some of the most beautiful examples of pony architecture you've seen. The only difference here is the fact that they're made from a combination opaque membranes and cartilages (for structural support). Imagine a cloud city 20 times the size of Cloudsdale and it will give you a rough idea of the size of Los Pegasus. Dashville seems to even exceed that. My...a fully-functioning city right here in Rainbow Dash... Big Mac's nothing close to this. They even got parks and a river made from liquid rainbows. Goodness, how many things is Dash capable of producing with all this?!, you mentally exclaimed.

“Ah...No matter how may times I stepped into this city, Dashville is always so beautiful,” Rainbow Cell reminisced, “Come on! Let's get going!”

Your guide smiled and flew ahead of you, leaving you to catch up with her.

“Hey! Slow down there! Humans can't fly, you know.”

'Well, I'm so used to doing this. I think you're the one who needs some adjusting here,” the pegasus smirked, “Catch ya later!”

With that, Rainbow Cell flew off.

You focused your eyes on the flying pegasus as she weaved through the sky, which is light pink in color; there are even wisps of clouds dotting random spots above which adds to the great mystery of this city. The nearest destination from the city entrance is the Rainbow Streams Park. Rainbow Cell landed beside the sign marking the entrance to the park and motioned for you to follow her. When you entered the park, you noticed that almost all of the ponies in here are copies are Rainbow Dash; a sea of rainbow manes is all that you could see. Like your guide told you, there are unicorn and earth pony versions of Dash relaxing and playing around, engaging in all sorts of recreational activities you'd see in Canterlot Park on a sunny weekend. Much to your astonishment, there are also “families”; a male and female Dash with several adorable fillies and colts versions of Dash running and laughing around. Despite being identical to their 'master', it seems that there are still subtle differences in their manestyles and supposed personality. As an example, you saw one reading an organic-looking book underneath the shade of a “tree” (which looks more like something you would find in a lung) and another doing loops in midair like a hyperactive filly. One of them kept her mane long and flowing while another had it in a mohawk.

Before you could do further analysis of your new environment, a male voice suddenly interrupted your thoughts.

"Hey, Dash! Long time no see. How's your work at “Fantasy Fulfillment” doing lately?”

The source of the voice is a male Rainbow Cell a few feet in front of you two. He's wearing a safety helmet and a uniform with a wing lapel pin on it. The pegasus has the same coat and eye color as the real Rainbow Dash, but he kept his mane brushed up in a spiked fashion.

“Well, nothing much. Just more news about the 'master's' estrus getting out of control and I having to fulfill every one of those thoughts despite how much I hate it. I bet that “Flights and Wing Maintenance” is doing much better for you.”

“Sad to hear that! The Cells running “Estrus Management” and “Self Control” department just can't seem to put their differences aside and just had to ruin it for everycell here,” the male pony said.

“Yeah. It's no use arguing with those foals...,” Rainbow Cell laments.

Wow! Who's that you're bringing with you?"

“Oh, this is a human librarian. This guy here got here by the way of another estrus victim due to the competition at the aforementioned departments,” Rainbow Cell scowled.

“Another victim? So fast? I thought that the 'master' is done with humans already. My...he looks absolutely awful. He really needs some patching up.”

“That's precisely what I'm going to do.”

I see...Anyway, weIcome to Dashville. I'm Rainbow Cell #8347932 but you can call me Blazer for convenience,” Blazer said while shaking your hand with his hoof.

“Nice to meet you,” you nodded.

“You're really lucky that she found you, human guest. Rainbow Cell #0974564 here is a very caring cell, you see. Feel free to call her Dashie if you feel like it.”

“Blazer! I though we're though with discussing my nickname!”

“But it sounds better than a string of numbers, Dashie,” Blazer smiled.

“That's none of your business. If you got nothing important to say, I haven't got all day with you. Bye!”

Rainbow Cell (you are calling her that for now lest 'Dashie' incurs her wrath) dragged you away from the stallion and led you out of the park and onto the streets where even more cells are flying around.

“Just ignore that guy, human. He's a former coworker who loves to pull jokes on me,” R. Cell said.

For the rest of the way, the both of you remained silent. A few turns down the block, you reached a low-rise building marked: T. Cumulus Building.

“Here we are, 2132 Cirrus Lane,” R. Cell announced as she led you inside.

Rainbow Cell's home is on the 5th floor of the building. A ride in a spherical elevator, the designated floor is reached and a wall appeared in the front. R. Cell tapped her hoof on the wall in a specific pattern like some sort of password and the wall opened immediately, showing her home for you to see.

Her home is vastly different from the organic world outside. It neither big nor small but very comfortable-looking. It's looks like the typical apartment in any of the cities in Equestria. The kitchen is right by the doorway but it's furnished with appliances and equipments you've never seen before. The living room is colorfully decorated: the couch and the tables are all rainbow-colored while the "carpeting" is cerulean. A large rectangular mirror is placed opposite of the couch. That's a really strange place to put a mirror. Many recruitment posters from a "Elite Rainbow Corps" is pasted on the walls. From the look of the slogans: Only the Best Cells Gets In, you guessed that it's some inner-body counterpart of the Wonderbolts. Another hole allows you to look into her bedroom, which is designed to mimic the surface of clouds and the colors of the sky. A picture of Rainbow Dash in her victorious posture is hung prominently in an alcove in the wall.

Rainbow Cell led you to the couch and motioned for you to have a seat.

"Welcome to my humble home, human. It's Anything I could get you?"

"Nothing I could think of now., Rainbow Cell."

"You can just call me Dash," the pegasus smiled, "Rainbow Cell sounds awfully bland like the rest of the others here."

"If you say so, Dash."

"Okay then... I bet you're having a lot of questions in your head right now. Feel free to ask anything you wanna know. Fire Away, then."
