there is a limit to how much hardship one pony can take before they start breaking. but sometimes, the best help comes in the simplest forms. some comforting words, a tasty treat or two, or a caring hug from a friend.

something i wrote up in a couple of nights and wanted to post. i wanted to get this out to hopefully make myself feel a little bit better.

Natalya, fastest griffon in Griffonstone, finally made it to the Equestria Games. This was her chance to show everyone that she was the best flyer in all the lands.

Or so she thought.

When Natalya sees the flying skills of a pegasus named Rainbow Dash, she begins to wonder if she had finally found someone that might actually be as good as her. Unable to get the lingering thought out of her mind, she decides that she must meet Rainbow Dash and race her.

Natalya is soon going to find out that a simple race is going to be the least of her problems.

Mostly takes place after the events of The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone
