This story is a sequel to Race the Wind

Nothing could be better for Soarin'. He's a famous athlete, he's rich, and has the mare of his dreams. Life seems to be perfect.
However, after a night of passion with Spitfire results in some 'complications', the blue Wonderbolt needs to make a choice between his love and his career...

To a young pale blue pegasus named Soarin', his best friend, an attractive mare by the name of Spitfire, is the most beautiful pony in all of Equestria. Having known each other since foalhood, the two pegasi have a bond that few friends share. But as they mature, Soarin' has fallen more and more for his alluring orange haired friend.
But as far as he knows, she doesn't feel the same way...until one fateful Hearts and Hooves Day in the floating city of Cloudsdale.

Spitfire and Soarin' share a special moment after hours! Soarin' introduces Spitfire to something that she's never experienced before. Will she be able to handle it?

Soarin' is looking for love. He searches Equestria for his sweetheart while on a Wonderbolts tour, but realises what he wanted might have been under his nose all along.

Soarin' and Rainbow Dash have been dating for a while but now Soarin' has seemed distant. He is constantly going to special Wonderbolts training and missing important dates with Rainbow Dash. Just what could Soarin's little secret be.

Spitfire needs help. There is one pony she can think to turn to, Rainbow Dash. Rainbow saved her life once, now she will have a chance to do it again, if she will.

Being the captain of Equestria's most renowned aerobatics team is a stressful, and sometimes thankless, job. Her joints ache; her muscles are taut; her mind reels from the sheer responsibility. But, like any professional, Spitfire takes it all in stride with a grin.

That is, until a certain rainbow-maned mare started mouthing off. Being accused of 'Camera Hogging' was the final straw. Spitfire finally lost her temper, dumping every ounce of that responsibility on an unwitting rookie and leaving for a single day of respite.

This story details her day of (mostly) relaxation.

(A/N: Spitfire's Day Off is a side-story to Blitz, taking place parallel to "A Very Long Day" chapter arc.)

Edit 03/07/2012: Changed format from triple-asterisk to Horizontal Rule and Sub-Chapter number. Looks much better, in my own opinion.

A living meteor has fallen, bringing the threat of Equestria's destruction. The Elements of Harmony have broken, following Rainbow Dash's ultimate sacrifice to protect her friends, and they scramble to solve the mystery while the world prepares for war. Moving forward is hard with Rainbow Dash dead.

But peace in the world beyond proves elusive to Rainbow, and she'll never let her friends down when they need her. Not even death will stop her from coming back.

Twilight had always been a diligent researcher. She would routinely pour over every book she had at her disposal in preparation for every royal assignment. Except, sometimes books can only teach one so much. With this heretical idea in mind, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash decide to take it upon themselves to make sure Twilight keeps her wings clean, and doesn't embarrass herself in the sky.

Derpy dreams about the time she met Dinky's father, the love of her life.
Many dawwws were had while writing this, I hope just as many are had when you read it.
