Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash had become pretty close. Naturally Rainbow Dash did most of the talking but today was different. Fluttershy had been scared all morning because Miss.Windith told the class that they would be having a new student.
"Come on Fluttershy," RainbowDash yelled!
Rainbow began pounding on the bathroom door.
"Come on this is getting ridiculous! You've been in their for two hours!" Rainbow Dash yelled her patience getting thin.
"No, go away! What if their mean and pick on me! Or, or-"
"Okay stop right their! You haven't even met them yet!"
"Well, if their mean maybe that's a good thing."
"Ugh come on Fluttershy! How do you know if their mean!? you haven't met her!"
"Thanks for your support but no thanks! I'm sorry Rainbow Dash but I just don't have the courage to risk it right now."
"Ugh, Fluttershy" Rainbow Dash groaned,
As she banged her head on the door. Then her ears pricked up as she hear an all to familiar noise.
"Not again" she mumbled.
"Fluttershy!, are you seriously crying!? come on imagine how alone and scared this new student could be! I heard she's a griffin! See!? Isn't that cool!?"
"Wwwwwwaaaaaaaaa" Fluttershy sobbed "And what is griffins are mean and scary-"
"Ugh "Fluttershy!" Rainbow said her blood starting to boil!
"She's a griffin for ponies sake! You being afraid of her proves my point! Most ponies are afraid of them of don't know what they are!?"
"Yeah well, I know what they are! And they are really scary!"
Sigh "That's why she will have a harder time adjusting and making new friends! So please come on! Do it for the new student!" Rainbow huffed,
"No!"
"Fluttershy!"
"No, I'm sorry Rainbow dash but I just don't have the courage right now."
"Ggggrrrrr" Rainbow growled in annoyance.
"Fine! Well, I'm going to meet the new student! I don't know what your problem is but fine! I'll go by myself! Some friend you are!"
Rainbow dash yelled angrily
"Fine then I guess we're not friends anymore!?" Fluttershy yelled
Rainbow dash gasped "How could you say that?!?! I needed your help! But fine! If you don't want to be friends anymore!? dos'nt matter to me! Your loss! Good luck! I hope you have fun replacing me!"
Rainbow dash stomped off.
"What have I done to my friend?" Fluttershy called out through tears after a long silence.
Rainbow dash made her way to the obstacle course in front of the school.
"I might as well practice until she gets here." she muttered as she made a sharp turn to the left.
"Hahahaaaa" Billy, Hoops and Dumbbell laughed. Rainbow Dash turned her head to look at them.
"Doesn't that griffin know she's supposed to fly at junior flight camp?" Hoops commented
Rainbow dash turned her head to see the new griffin student sitting at the entrance next to her luggage. She was nervously looking around looking lost.
Rainbow Dash smirked,
She zipped over flinging cloud all around Billy Hoops and Dumbbell.
"Maybe she just dos'nt want to make you look bad!" She said before zipping off, pushing the clouds out of existence.
"Hey their names Rainbow Dash! And you are?"
"Oh, um,um, G-G-Gilda?" she shuddered
"You sure about that."
"Um."
Rainbow smirked, "stick with me Gilda and those guys won't give you any guff."
Rainbow offered a hoof and pulled her new griffin friend into the sky. They began flying parallel matching each others pace at high speeds. Until Gilda pulled ahead and did spins in the air.
"Whoa your awesome!"
"You too Rainbow Dash."
"Alright Gilda, lets show these guys how it's done."
They turned and flew straight towards the three bullies knocking them over like bowling pins.
"Hahaha" Gilda and Rainbow Dash laughed as they flew through the obstacle course.
Time seemed to fly by because before they knew it 10 years had come and gone. Rainbow Dash was now a sleek healthy looking young mare. She now had a soft shiny even coat. She was no longer ever without food or resources. She had now truly blossomed. Gilda is now was a full grown griffin who's lost all of her down. Instead her feathers were now replaced with bran new adult feathers. Rainbow Dash was now 16 and in height ( high) school. She and Gilda always got into trouble. Weather it be fights, skipping class or disrespecting students and teachers. They skipped school most days in the week. As a result their grades were horrible but they were happy non the less. It didn't necessarily matter to Rainbow Dash what her grades were like because she was perfectly happy with the way things were. But then again she never cared about what would happen in the future as long as she wasn't with her parents. She had bits she used when she needed them. She kept them safe in her home. She didn't necessarily need them, so much as food was the top priority. However she used them sparingly none the less. She always saved them as much as possible in case of emergency.
