Dreamer regarded the neon blue pony that had just streaked into the spa as a shooting star across the sky. The rainbow-maned mare spoke again.
"Name's Dash. Rainbow Dash. You've probably heard of me, I'm a bit of a local celebrity here, and in Cloudsdale." She explained in a way that could only be described as "awesome," "cool," or perhaps even "radical." Dreamer responded, still reeling from the shock of this 'Rainbow Dash' intruding upon a pleasant spa-visit with two newly acquired acquaintances. Recognition dawned on him, however, knowing she was the greatest flier to ever come out of his hometown. He was just a touch starstruck.
"Mine is Dreamer Glisten, it's very nice to meet you! You say you've been looking for me. Why is that?"
"Well, some Pegasus filly saw some cool trick you did, and came to tell me about it! I thought maybe you could show me, because his description of it wasn't very good." Dreamer blushed. He seemed to attract an awful lot of attention. Well, except for Canterlot, of course.
"I'd be happy to show you once I get done with my spa treatment! Care to join us?"
The rest of the afternoon went fast, splashing around with Rainbow Dash in the spa, even long after Rarity and Fluttershy had gone home. Fluttershy had invited Dreamer over to have tea sometime before she'd gone, and Rarity had told him to come by her shop if he were ever in need of a nice dress (which he very well was). Despite the latening hour, Dreamer was still feeling quite energetic, and suggested some night flying to Rainbow once the spa closed.
Stepping outside, the two took off! Rainbow was first off the ground, rolling into a loop-de-loop from not far off the ground. Dreamer was impressed, and said as much as he launched himself skyward.
"That's amazing!" He exclaimed, already a little short of breath.
"Heck yeah it was! See if you can keep up!" Was her reply.
Dreamer banked upward, wings beating quickly, and made his way to quite some height into the sky. From there, he saw Rainbow Dash spiralling up at a far greater pace than him. She was such an impressive flier! He called out.
"Watch this!" As he swooped downward, picking up tremendous speed. Nothing special by Dash's standards, but certainly tremendous for his. He pulled up near the ground and began to trot along it at a far greater speed than normal, accelerated by his beating wings. "This is the trick you heard about." He stated matter of factly, though the heady feel of the wind through his beautiful mane still had him almost dizzy.
"I can do that!" Was Rainbow's reply, and before it had even left her mouth, she was screaming through the air, striking down to the firmament, but saving herself at the last moment, replicating Dreamer's trick, but even faster! Before he could even restrain himself, Dreamer was smiling and gawking at the same time. Rainbow Dash slowed to a stop and wheeled around before taking off again, this time slowly, and drifting right past Dreamer, who was still speechless. "That is how it's done."
"Wow, Rainbow!" Was all Dreamer could muster. He caught his breath, as all this trick flying had tired him out already. "I should probably be finding somewhere to stay now, as it is getting quite late." He panted. "Do you know anypony who might be able to help me out with that?"
"Well..." Rainbow Dash thought for a moment, "I know Twilight has plenty of extra space in the Library. Maybe you could talk to her. I can go with you if you want." Dreamer nodded, and before he'd even finished nodding, Dash was taking flight once more, and he found himself following as fast as he could.
