It was a sunny day in Ponyville, and the colorful ponies were enjoying their usual activities. Rainbow Dash, the fastest flyer in Equestria, was practicing her tricks in the clear blue sky. Little did she know, a sinister force was lurking, waiting for the right moment to strike.

That evening, after a tiring day, Rainbow Dash returned home to find a package waiting for her. It had no return address and was wrapped in a dull grey paper. Curiosity got the better of her, so she cautiously opened it. Inside, she found a peculiar artifact, a faded rainbow-colored pendant with a cryptic inscription.

Feeling an odd sense of unease, Rainbow Dash decided to wear the pendant that night. As she drifted off to sleep, a faint whisper echoed through her dreams, "Fly to the abandoned castle..."

Rainbow Dash tossed and turned in her sleep as the voice was getting louder and louder with it's commands to fly to the castle. Unable to get Rainbow dash's attention, the cursed pendent forced a nightmare induced seizure that plagued Rainbow dash until the dawn of the next day. Throughout that hellish night, Rainbow dash went into multiple hellish nightmares that nopony could ever unsee or mentally recover from, followed by uncontrollable body spasms, screaming,and crying.
