	Fluttershy was washing the dishes within the kitchen.  She looks out of her window, seeing all of her animal friends playing and the sorts.  As she looks out at their folly, something caught the corner eye.  Within the sky, she saw a greenish-yellow stream in the sky.  As she looked on, the colors of the object started to widen and started to form new colors too.  Orange and blue started to show and eventually the colors red and purple joined in as well.

From here, Fluttershy knew exactly what it was, or in this case 'who' it was.  The colorful creature known as Rainbow Dash was heading straight towards Fluttershy's cottage.  Fluttershy, knowing Dash's unique way at entering ones house (the window), decided to meet her outside.

Within moments, Rainbow Dash lands in front of Fluttershy "Hey Shy, you have anything planned for today?"

Fluttershy thinks the question over for a moment "No, I don't think so."

"Good, then in that case, I'll train you now."

"Train?  For what?"

"To replenish Cloudsdale with rainwater of course."

Fluttershy starts to remember her hassle she had to deal with the last time she had to do this.  She may have made something out of herself the last time, but now?  Now she was feeling that she just got lucky before, that she couldn't do it again.  "W... wH... wHy TrAiN m... Me?" she replied with the noticeable fear in her voice.

Rainbow Dash caught the feelings behind those words and decided to make her reply a supporting one.  "Why?  Because you were the number one flyer last time and with a little bit of my training, I bet you'll be even better this time."  Fluttershy was hiding behind her mane, thinking about the praise.  Rainbow Dash pushed a little more "Come on, it's just training.  It's note the real thing, it's just a preparation exorcise."  This lightened up Fluttershy a bit more, but could she be even better at flying then last time?

Suddenly, Fluttershy's chicken coop started to make a ruckus.  The two pegasi looked over at the hen house wondering at what was happening.  Moments later, Parappa runs out of the coop, yipping in fear.  "Heh, looks like bit off more then he could chew when playing with those chickens"  Rainbow Dash laughed at the situation.

"Oh, I told him not to go in there" Fluttershy said in a worried tone.  "He probably met Gabert.  He is such a territorial turkey."  Parappa ran behind Fluttershy for protection and started barking at the giant turkey inside the hen house.  "Even after he got scared, he still has the courage to act tough" Fluttershy thought "I should try and act like him, I gotta believe!"

Fluttershy pets Parappa then looks at Rainbow Dash "Okay, lets start training."

That was just the warm up gal, all is good so far.
Keep up with that attitude, and you'll be a star.
Come on shy we have to fly, the winds the reason why.
It is something you can't deny.
~
Don't let it pass you by.

I feel it, I can live it~ the surging power which is speed.
The exciting thrill is such a treat, makes me feel I can succeed.
If you can feel it shy, you'll be the talk of the town.
If you can learn that then you'll be twenty percent.  More.  Cool-er~
So don't you let me down.

~Get flying.
Lets go flutter.
~Keep flying.
Can you feel the burn?
~Start flying.
Get going Fluttershy.
~Feel flying.
Now your turn.

I think its time to use your mind.
Close your eyes and just unwind.
Now just start to visualize.
This will help you realize~
~What it all means.
~What it all means.
~What it all means.
To be one, one with the speed.

I feel it, I can live it~ the surging power which is speed.
Makes me feel that I can succeed.
I need to take no caution now, I need take no heed.
I can feel the thrill of speed.

~

To feel.  The thrill.  Of speed.





The average wingpower of a male Pegasus is 9.3.  That seems roughly like something Fluttershy could never even reach.

But now, she has a wingpower of 13.6.  Given all that she had, Fluttershy collapses onto cool grass breathing heavily.  "That was awesome" Rainbow Dash proclaimed at the results.  "That was just training, think at what it will be like with the real thing."  Fluttershy didn't reply, still tuckered out after the flight.  "With enough effort, I bet you could even do a 'Sonic Pinkboom.'  Fluttershy formed a weak smile on her face at the thought.
