“Ugh. My stomach feels like it’s about to explode.” said Twilight as she walked slowly through town with a bulging stomach filled with food.
“How come you didn’t eat as much Dusk?” she asked Dusk wearily, with a tint of irritation.
“Because I probably have a concussion and I shouldn’t be doing strenuous mental activity until I’ve fully recovered.”
“Eating is a strenuous mental activity?” Spike questioned, raising an eyebrow at this.
“It is when you are trying to eat AND stave off several crazy mares who find you very attractive at the same time.”
“Right...” Spike said sarcastically.
Twilight started to gag but managed to suppress it. “So, who’s next on the-” *gag* “-list, Spike?”
“The ponies in charge of weather control are Rainbow Dash and Rainbow Blitz.”
Dusk looks around, up at the sky and sees that the sky is partly cloudy. “Well,” he said, “Looks like those two aren’t doing a good job.”
“I’m surprised you can make such a judgement, considering how you refuse to do any strenuous mental activity.” Is what Twilight would have said if her stomach wasn’t on the verge of exploding or was interrupted by a multi colored streak that collided into her and smashed her into a puddle of mud.
All of a sudden Twilight’s stomach didn’t feel like exploding anymore.
After the spectral blur stopped in the mud puddle, mixed with Twilight’s brunch, three mud covered figures became distinguishable, two pegasi dog piled on top of a unicorn. One of the pegasi was a mare, she lifted herself up and wiped the mud from her eyes as she said in a tomboyish, raspy voice, “I beat you again, Blitz.” then she shook the rest of the mud off of herself, revealing her smooth, rainbow-colored mane.
A more masculine, yet similarly raspy voice, came from the other pegasus, saying, “Nuh-uh, Dash! I beat you this time!” and he shook off the mud on him revealing a similar rainbow mane, but more jagged in style.
“No way! I was obviously in the lead!” she replied.
“No you weren’t.”
“Yeah-huh.”
“Nuh-uh.”
“Yeah-huh~.”
They went back and forth saying “Nuh-uh” and “Yeah-huh” in rapid succession, overlapping each other's response to the point they were saying their responses at the same time with very little delay in between.
Dusk coughed loudly to get the pair’s attention. The two pegasi stopped shouting at each other and looked at Dusk curiously.
“I believe that mare you two ran into may require medical attention.” Dusk said flatly.
The two pegasi looked at the mud-covered unicorn mare that laid on the ground before them, her eyes in a spiral and vomit dripping from her mouth. The two pegasi looked at each other, then at Spike and Dusk with nervous smiles.
Both pegasi quickly went to help Twilight get back up on her hooves.
Twilight was able to stand, but her head was still spinning from the crash and she still had mud all over her.
“Here, let me clean up you up.” the mare said as she bolted off and quickly returned with a cloud over Twilight’s head, she bounced up and down on the cloud, making water pour down hard onto Twilight, who gave a shrill shriek as if she were awakened by this immense downpour.
The mare named Dash looked down at her target from her cloud and saw Twilight sopping wet and giving her a deadly glare that could probably kill a manticore if she didn’t have her mane hiding her eyes.
“Oops. Looks like I overdid it.” Dash said, kind of sheepishly.
The stallion named Blitz looked at Dash. “You want me to handle this?”
“Nah, bro. I got this.” she said, getting down from her cloud, putting a hoof on his chest.
“OK, Dash.” he said backing off a little bit.
“No no, that won’t be necessary.” Twilight said rather grouchily, but before she could move, Dash had already moved the cloud away and started creating a rainbow colored tornado around Twilight.
“This is my very own patented ‘Rain-blow Dry.’” Dash said as she finished up summoning and killing the tornado and gently landing on the ground next to Blitz. “No no. No need to thank me, you’re quite welcome.” she then took a look at her handywork and started to roll over on the floor laughing hard, Blitz and Spike joined in shortly after.
Twilight’s mane and tail was a big fluffy mess and look completely hilarious to all who could see.
Twilight had a deadpan look on her face. “I take it you two are Rainbow Dash and Rainbow Blitz?”
Both pegasus sprang up into a poster character-type pose, facing each other.
“The one-” said Dash.
“-And only.” finished Blitz.
Dash jumped up and hovered in front of Twilight’s face. “Why? You’ve heard of us?”
“I heard you two were supposed to be keeping the sky clear.” responded Twilight.
“Yeah, yeah. Relax babe. That can be done in a jiffy.” said Rainbow Blitz laying back on a cloud next to Dash.
“What he said.” said Rainbow Dash. “It can wait until after we’re done practicing.”
“Practicing? For what?” asked Twilight quizzically.
“The Wonderbolts!” they said in unison, pointing at a poster of the Wonderbolts on a nearby tree.
“They’re gonna perform at the celebration tomorrow and we are going to show them our stuff.” said Rainbow Dash.
“THE Wonderbolts?” Twilight said.
“Yep.” both pegasus said.
Twilight scoffed. “The best fliers in all of equestria would never accept a couple of pegasi that can't keep the sky clear for one day.”
“Hey, just one of us can clear this sky in ten seconds flat.” said Rainbow Blitz.
“Care to prove that tough guy?” Twilight responded, goading him.
“Actually, no. I’m going to be the better pony and let my sister handle that.” he retorted.
“I’d be happy to do so Blitz.” said Rainbow Dash. “If not only to make this pony embarrassed for doubting us, then to protect you from being embarrassed when you can only do this in only 11 seconds, flat.”
“Just shut up and prove this mare wrong, Dash.” Said Blitz slightly glaring at his sister through the corner of his eye.
Rainbow Dash then leaped off the cloud she and Blitz was on, dissipating it, causing Blitz to lose his seat and briefly fall before he recovered and was able to land himself onto the ground gently.
Rainbow Dash then proceeded to zip around the sky, kicking every cloud in sight, making them dissipate.
Ten seconds flat later, Rainbow Dash had finished clearing the sky of clouds. Twilight and Spike stood there, their mouths agape in awe.
“What’d I tell ya? Ten seconds flat. I’d never leave Ponyville hangin’ and neither would Blitz.” said Rainbow Dash.
Blitz walked up beside Twilight as she stared forward with an awestruck look. “Ha. You seem like fun to hang out with. So how does lunch tomorrow sound?” he said raising an eyebrow and giving a smirk at Twilight.
Twilight raised her own eyebrow at this and gave a skeptical look. “We’ll see.”
With that both pegasi flew off, leaving Twilight, Spike, and Dusk alone, the latter of whom had been standing still, stone faced ever since Twilight went through the “Rain-blow Dry.”
“Um... Dusk?” Twilight said, approaching him slowly.
No response, he just stared straight forward, like a statue.
She poked him in the chest softly and he tilted his head quickly and started twitching all over, his eyes were watering and his lips looked like he just ate something extremely sour. He gave an occasional snort for a minute then suddenly burst out laughing uncontrollably and pointed at Twilight’s mane.
Dusk laughed harder at Twilight’s mane than everyone else combined.
“GREAT CELESTIA!” Dusk managed to say, “You have no idea how hard it was for me to not laugh at that! Whoo~.”
Twilight’s eyes were drooping so low they were almost closed when she said, “Great~. If you’re done laughing I’d like to get a move on and finish this list, please.”
“Wait, wait. Where’s a painter pony? I gotta capture this moment.”
Twilight rolled her eyes and groaned loudly as she started walking towards town hall.
