Rainbow Dash's Bad Day

by Luigi117


Tank is Hungry and Pinkie wants to watch tricks

Rainbow Dash yawned. She had just woken up after an awesome day of showing off her new tricks. She jumped out of her bed and walked out of her room, without fixing her blankets and sheets. "Sup Tank?" she said as she passed her pet turtle. He just made a weird sound and kicked his food bowl over. Rainbow sighed and looked in a cabinet for his food. "Ugh" she said as she turned to her pet. "Sorry dude. No food. I'll go buy some." She grabbed a few bits and left for the shops. As she got to town, it seemed everypony needed to be in the market today. Rainbow Dash flew above them all, looking for the pet shop. When she spotted it, she raced in. She got in a ridiculously long line. The pony in front of her talked, and talked, and TALKED. The one behind her couldn't stop fidgeting. Rainbow wanted to tell the one in front of her to shut up, and tell the one behind her that if she was that itchy, to take a bath. After half an hour of waiting she got to the front. "one bag of turtle food please." The cashier looked under the desk for the product and came back up to face Rainbow. "Sorry ma'am. None left. That lady that just left bought the last bag." Rainbow Dash's eye twitched. She turned and started to leave. " oh, that's OK. I didn't wait in line for half an hour for it or ANYTHING LIKE THAT!!" She screamed. When she saw that everypony was looking at her, she laughed nervously and flew out of there.

After an hour of searching for something that Tank would eat, she facehoofed as she thought of something. Lettuce! Fluttershy had that annoying bunny. Maybe she had some. She flew towards her best friend's house. She landed in front of it and knocked on the front door. No answer. "Oh COME ON!!" She started banging on the door. It opened some, and Angel stared up at her in an annoyed face. "Hi little guy, where is Fluttershy?" The bunny hopped over to a window and pointed to the Everfree Forest. "Oh. well darn. See you little annoying bunny. Thanks!" With that, she turned and flew away. Angel started to walk to the door. When he got there, he slammed it shut hard enough so he knew Rainbow Dash heard. "Jerk." He thought.

Rainbow Dash got back to her home. "Here you go buddy! Eat up!!" She placed some lettuce leaves in Tank's bowl. He looked up slowly and started to smile. Then he started munching on the leaves. Rainbow knew she was going to be in trouble. She didn't want to do it, but if she wanted her pet to live, she HAD to. She stole from Fluttershy's garden. She would have to apologize later. "Well Tank, how was it?" He looked up and slowly nuzzled her leg. "Aww, thanks man!" She patted him on the head. "Well dude, I'm gonna grab Pinkie Pie and show her my new tricks I have learned! They are pretty awesome!" She opened her door and flew out.

She walked into Sugercube corner. "HI!!" Pinkie floated above Rainbow. Rainbow was perfectly used to Pinkie's crazy ways, so she didn't think much of it. "Hi Pinks. Wanna watch me practice?" Pinkie Pie gasped dramatically. "Really? WellfirstihavetomakesomecakeforyourGoodJobOnYourNewTrickParty!!!" "Yeah, cool. Whatever you just said."Rainbow said. "Yay!" Pinkie fell from the imaginary floor and ran inside just to come back out a second later, holding a tray with a cake on it. "OK, moaw m raady pto go." Rainbow Dash laughed. "Pinkie Pie you are so random! Now let's go." "K!!!" Pinkie ran beside her, the cake somehow balanced on her head even though she was hopping. When they got to the park, Pinkie somehow had a picnic blanket. She sat down and started giggling. "What are you waiting for Dashie? Go, Go, Go!" Rainbow laughed. "Alright Pinkie, but get ready." She stepped closer to Pinkie. "This" Closer. "Is" closer.. "going to be.." She was right in front of Pinkie's snout. Her eyes were staring right into hers. "AWESOME!!" Rainbow Dash flew up into the sky and looked back at Pinkie Pie. Pinkie yelped and fell back onto the blanket. She started laughing. "Well than GO! Show me! GO, GO,GO,GO,GO!!" Rainbow smirked. "Alright Pinks!" She flew up and up, stopping when she was just a speck in the sky. She flew straight down, doing spins and loops on the way down. She did barrel rolls and she made the clouds spin. She rocketed downward until she couldn't go any faster unless she wanted to do a Sonic Rainboom. Right before she hit the ground, she pulled up, soaring right over Pinkie. "Oh my GOSH!! Your so AWESOME!!" She heard Pinkie Pie say. She looked back to see Pinkie jumping up and down. Then Pinkie stopped. "Wha?" rainbow looked in front of her "OH FU-" She crashed into a rock. She stayed there a moment and started to fall, hitting rocks on the way down.

Rainbow Dash slowly opened her eyes. "hhnngggg" she moaned as she rolled over onto her stomach. She tried to stand but felt a sharp pain in her back right leg. Rainbow gave a small yelp and fell back down. "OHMYGOSH!!RAINBOWDASHAREYOUALRIGHT?!!TALKTOMEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" Pinkie Pie screamed as she ran up to Rainbow's side. "Yeah I'm fine Pin-OW!" She said as she tried to stand again. Pinkie didn't hear her over her rambling.
"I'LLHAVETOGETADOCTOR!!BUTTHENIWOULDHAVETOLEAVEYOU,ANDTHATWOULDN'TBENICE.BUTTHENYOUCOULDBEHURTAGIAN!!IFANYTHINGHAPPENEDTOYOUDASHIE I.... I would..." Pinkie burst into tears. Rainbow Dash scooted over to Pinkie Pie. Pinkie dropped down beside her. "Don't worry Pinkie. It isn't THAT bad." Rainbow tried to cheer her up. She didn't want to tell Pinkie Pie how much it actually hurt. She put her hoof around Pinkie's shoulders. "Thank you Dashie. I will help you get to Nurse Red Heart." Pinkie hoisted Rainbow Dash onto her back and carried her to the hospital.
