Fame and glory, these things are all Spitfire has ever needed. She had her Wonderbolts, some close friends, and the adoration of millions. For her, she needed almost nothing. However over time, The Wonderbolts have changed and so has Equestria as a whole, and certain requirements are needed in order to not only join, but also continue to stay. With these requirements, Spitfire is met with challenges from all over, and she begins to wonder if her life as the Captain of the Wonderbolts is coming to an end. However she soon meets up with an old friend from her days in the academy Orion.

After this, Spitfire learns a bit about Orion and his own home life, and it starts to make her question. Does she consider him more than a friend? With these revelations, what will change? and more importantly, how will it affect her career as a Wonderbolt?

Not bad! A decent, solid premise. Could definitely use some polish (occasional grammar/spelling mistakes) but otherwise an interesting read! I personally use https://app.grammarly.com/ for my chapters. It catches stuff I miss. :twilightsmile:

Thanks for the input! I'm trying my best to correct the grammar and spelling mistakes by using Grammarly, but otherwise I am happy to know you are enjoying the story!

would you like to borrow a character?

I like the story so far, looking forward to more.

Lmao, writers block is a bitch XD

"Oh your evil" Fleetfoot chuckled as she took out her flight suit. "Besides, the two of them tease each other enough already, it's bound to happen at some point."

you're

"Oh please, Rapid would not miss out a chance to get on your nerve" Fleetfoot said chuckuling

chuckling

"Alright alright alright, here's one. A Skellapony walks into the bar, he order's a bear and a mop" Rapidfire said "Why does he need the mop?" He would tell the table. Most if not all the Wonderbolts were at the table, Soarin and Thunderlane were on the right side of the table, while Fleetfoot, Surprise, and Rainbow Dash were sitting on the left. Rapid was sitting close to Soarin and a seat beside him was empty for Spitfire.

orders. also, is it supposed to be a bear or a beer?

"Oh sweet, Mabey we will get to see him again?" Surprise asked.

"Mabey yah" She said, getting a bit quiet.

maybe

"Yeah...there sending Yellowjacket" Rapid said, with a very unamused grunt.

they're

"If command is sending over Yellowjackass then he is going to give me some more damn paperwork to fill out" Spitfire said, as she grabbed the bag from Rapid "Sence I'm going somewhere this afternoon I might as well bring the paperwork with me just in case I have time to kill."

Since

"Good morning Captian" Yellowjacket said "I take it you and your bolts got the memo about my visit?"

Captain

Spitfire would open the door with the keys to the office, which she was holding in her mouth. She took a deep breath and took a look around her office. Compared to offices of businessponies, Spitfire’s was quite empty. There was only one locker containing four different drawers for all kinds of paperwork Spitfire had to do. Mainly consisting of Applicants, Forms, and Exspencess that the Bolts paid for on their tours. Her desk naturally also had a few drawers, but those were reserved for either personal things, such as sunglasses, or simple things like spare pens and sheets of paper. She used much of the free space she had in her office to decorate and give it some ‘Wonderbolt flair’ to it. Mainly with some posters and photographs.

Expenses

"Good morning Captian" Yellowjacket said "I take it you and your bolts got the memo about my visit?"

Captain. and similar misspellings of captain later on.

Orion flushed a bit as he smiled, scratching the back of his head "Actually uh...I'm one of The Captian of the Royal Guards."

Is he one of the Captains of the Royal Guards or The Captain of the Royal Guards? Later chapters seem to have him as the latter.

"Well, color me impressed, Spitfire" Orion smiled. "You know your job well, it's no wonder your the Captian."

you're. the Captian.

Has Orion appeared in any of your other stories? I swear I’ve seen a My Little Pony OC with that name before I saw this story.

He has yes, though he was mutch more of a background character. Unlike this story in which he is one of the main characters.

This is getting interesting.

Yellowjacket needs to get squaaaashed

Have not read this story. Still not sure if I will but it is complete so it's tempting.

But that cover picture screams "dear god my life time friend want's to be something and I have NO clue how to react to this!"

11737721
LMAO that's honestly fair. The cover photo is very old from when I first got my OC lol. I promise you that it's not what the fic is mainly about.

I’m interested in why Orion left Cloudsdale. 29 years is a long time.

Interesting. I wonder if Orion might know some ponies in Canterlot who would be willing to replace Yellowjacket.. :duck:

The use of auxiliary conjugates instead of actual verb tenses are a little distracting.

I think Rapid is crossing the line from protective brother to saboteur. :trixieshiftright: You’ve got too much on your plate right now to be worried about all the what-ifs, Spitfire. You’re both experienced captains. You can deal with it.

Paperwork, politics, and publicity. Somewhere in the betweens, there might be some practice. That, Soarin and Rainbow, is what happens when you get promoted. Avoid it at all costs if you just want to fly.

…He smirked at her and gave her a pat on the shoulder...

That right there is sexual assault if it’s not physical. As an officer, Spitfire knows Soarin as witness can get Yellowjacket tied up in legal proceedings for a long time and likely have him removed once the Inspector General’s investigatory audit brings everything else to light. Just the allegation will get him transferred at least.

"No" Spitfire said quickly "We're friends. Besides, I couldn't do that. Im the Captian of the Bolts, and he's the Captian of the Royal Guard" Spitfire said, sighing.

That actually sounds like a pretty good match, Spitfire. You both will have a very easy time understanding and empathizing with the troubles of the other.

"Oh hay Soarin" she replied cheerfully, "Is it 10am already?" She asked, looking to the clock.

That’s avoiding morning traffic in Cloudsdale? I’d call it ‘avoiding the lunch rush.’ These are all military affiliated ponies here. 10am is the day half over with.

Why don’t they release the scandal story to a friendly and sympathetic journalist? Cut the fangs off of the blackmail so it won’t work? Yellowjacket doesn’t own a monopoly on every media outlet. Go to a different company.
