Drabble Kaboom!

Zephyr + Lightning + Love Potion. Yangiscool commission Drabble

"Dash uses a love potion to make Zephyr and Lightning Dust fall in love and she gets away with it."

"Okay. Good thing that book of Twilight's also contained a way to 'water down' Love Poison so it can be regular old honest-to-good love POTION! Guess it's true what they say 'the poison is in the dosage.' And I made some extra just in case first try fails... Now I can get Zephyr Breeze off my back, AND deal with Lightning Dust once and for all." Rainbow Dash narrated to herself.

The doorbell rang.

Rainbow Dash opened it grinning. "Hi Lightning Dust! Ready for your date!"

"... Do you promise to speak with Spitfire about getting the Wash-Outs legally recognized as an Equestrian flight team?" Lightning Dust grumbled in a cheap dress.

"Oh I promise," Rainbow Dash said grinning.

"Fine. Whatever then. I'll be nice to this loser for one evening then."

"Good good, now sit down, your hubby will be here soon!"

"Blech. Don't remind me."

The doorbell rang again.

Rainbow did her best not to cringe at seeing Zephyr.

"Hi Rainbow, nice for you to invite me over. I actually wanted to talk to you about something."

"Nice to hear Zephyr! But please come in come in! I've got somepony who wants to ssee you!"

"Princess Celestia?"

"NO!"

"Princess Luna?"

"It's not a Princess!"

"Spitfire?"

"It's not a Wonderbolt!"

Those words were like magic. "I SHOULD BE!" Lightning Dust burst in. "Ah... you must be Zephyr?"

"Zephyr! Lightning Dust! Lightning Dust! Zephyr Breeze!"

"Oh!... Nice to meet you... "

"Care for some refreshments?" Rainbow offered at once.

"I could use a stiff drink!" Lightning said snatching one cup.

"I don't really..." Zephyr said reluctantly.

"For me?" Rainbow battered her eyes.

"... For you Rainbow."

The two pegasi downed the drinks... and then came the purple and pink heart-shaped rings in their eyes.

"Baby where have you been all my life?" Zephyr asked.

"Loser! Where have you been all MY life!" Lightning snapped not taking her eyes off him.

Rainbow cackled devilishly.

"So long! Do forget to write!" Rainbow sneered as she waved the happy couple into the church.

She was happily on her way, when she heard a mare sobbing. She spotted an Earth Pony with a pale purple mane and baby blue fur. Her cutie mark was a pair of open scissors pointed down.

"Hey... you okay? What's your name?"

"Pixie cut! That jerk, Zephyr!"

"... Well, don't worry, he won't bother you again, he's gotten hitched with-"

"THAT'S THE PROBLEM! We've been dating for a year! He told me that he was going to your house to finally break up with you!... Instead he was going out with that other mare?!"

Rainbow Dash said nothing... she just flew away. That couldn't be right could it? Naw. It couldn't be. Not at all. Beside, there were herd laws, that's how Big Mac married Sugar Belle, Cheerilee, and Marble Pie after all...

Rainbow returned home... to find Soarin' rummaging through her fridge.

"Hey Crash! Sorry for coming in like this! Your door was unlocked! The pie shop was closed and I was hoping you had some... you always give me the best pies!"

Rainbow wondered how to tell Soarin' she'd been using him as a pie disposal unit for all the pies Pinkie gave her.

"Yeeeeah, sorry, I don't have any."

"Ah dangit. Least you got some cherry cola. Care to share?"

Shaken by what had happened, Rainbow accepted... she had just enough time to remember she didn't HAVE any cherry cola just before realizing Soarin' was the hottest stallion she'd ever seen.

"About time those two got together," Spitfire remarked seeing Rainbow and Soarin' flying together looking at each other lovingly.
