With Twilight Sparkle’s explanation of Cloud Dream’s adventures in Ponyville, Water Lilly had decided to remain in Ponyville with her little brother, at least until he was healed. Cloud Dream’s recovery was painful but it progressed steadily. With constant practice and training, Rainbow Dash and Water Lilly, with Fluttershy’s help, trained cloud dream to maneuver by just feeling the wind currents around him. With his leg and wing healed, he felt more confidence in himself and felt the time was right
Rainbow Dash stood on a hill watching Ponyville below her. She was just on the outskirts of town, going towards Canterlot. Cloud Dream approached her, carefully, and made sure to be loud enough so she would know he was coming. Rainbow Dash turned and smiled slightly. She was glad Cloud Dream couldn’t see how worried she looked.
“Hey, Cloud Dream. What’s up?” She asked.
“Rainbow Dash, I wanted to talk to you about something important.” Cloud Dream side, he spread his wings, still being careful with the previously injured one, and made sure nothing was too close to him before he knelt down in the grass on the hill. Rainbow Dash knelt down beside him.
“Sure, what is it?” she asked.
“I want to fly still.” Cloud Dream said dryly. “I want you to teach me again.”
Rainbow Dash stood up quickly. “No, no I can’t. Last time I-“
“Last time I couldn’t feel the wind currents. Last time I was scared. This time will be different Rainbow, I know it.” Cloud Dream replied, staying where he lay. Rainbow Dash took a few steps away.
“What if you get hurt again? What if you don’t…what If you… what if you die Cloud Dream?” Rainbow finally managed to say.
“Rainbow, I’ll be fine. Please I really need your help.” Cloud Dream begged He stood up and caught her wind currents under his wing and walked up to her.
“I need you Rainbow Dash. I need to do this. I’m a Pegasus I was meant to fly. I know how much you like flying, how would you feel if you couldn’t do it anymore?” He asked. Rainbow Dash’s ears lowered and she looked away.
“Fine… I’ll help…” She said solemnly. Cloud Dream smiled and then nuzzled her cheek gently with his muzzle.
“Thank you Rainbow.” He said then made his way back towards Fluttershy’s Cottage, with both wings spread.
Rainbow Dash blushed lightly and watched him walk away.
“And what was that all about?” a soft southern voice said from behind. Rainbow Dash squealed and jumped about ten feet before steadying herself in the air above Applejack who was laughing uncontrollably.
“That was… he was… you… what are you doing!?” Rainbow Dash asked, crossing her front hooves.
“I was just visitin’ Fluttershy. She asked for a new supply of apples. What were you n’ Cloud Dream doin’?” Applejack asked, snickering a bit.
“Nothing! We were just talking okay?” Rainbow said sternly as she landed.
“Come on now Rainbow, ev’ry mare meets a colt eventually.” Applejack said, tilting her hat back.
“Nothing. Happened. Got it?” Rainbow Dash said.
“Alright, alright nothin’ happened. He sure is one handsome colt though” Applejack said and walked passed Rainbow Dash, back towards the cottage. Rainbow glared at her as she walked away then rubbed her cheek, trying to rub the feel away as if it were acid.
