There's a few rules to being Rainbow Dash.

- You gotta be the best flier in Equestria.

- You gotta be cool.

- You gotta be radical.

- You gotta be awesome.

And most importantly of all...

- You can never fall in love...EVER...

- ...Unless you fall in love with a Wonderbolt. Then it's totally cool.

- ...Even if he's already got a marefriend; still totally cool.

- ...Right?

A SoarinXRainbow Dash ( SoarinDash / Rainin ) fanfiction.

Rainbow Dash is visited by Soarin not too long after the Royal Wedding. The two decide to spend some time together... But Dash gets confused about her feelings, so she goes around trying to figure out what the hay is going on. As much as she hates to admit it, she's pretty clueless when it comes to romance. Unfortunately, so are most of her friends, but Rarity knows what to tell her- And Rainbow Dash isn't quite so willing to accept the truth.

Umm... Very first pony fanfic, I guess. Please, feel free to give constructive criticism. I won't take offense. And if you should choose to thumbs down it please say why, it might help me be a better writer. :)

...unless you just don't like the SoarinDash ship, in which case, why are you reading this?

Rated Teen for some language. Some. Maybe. Also for some hinted sexual themes and sex jokes. It's not going to be too bad though.

After inadvertently running into Soarin one night when out flying, Rainbow Dash invites him as her 'Plus one' to Twilight's Hearth Warming party.

It's definitely not a date though.

Until suddenly it is.

This story is a sequel to Flying Sky-High

So much has happened in the past year. Friends have been made, battles have been fought, and love has bloomed. Now at long last, Rainbow Dash has the chance of a lifetime: a chance to become a Wonderbolt and instantly be part of an elite squad. However, one of the key judges for the tryout is none other than her love: Soarin. He is bound by his profession to be fair and honest in his selection. Will their relationship give Dash an edge in the tryouts? Or will it strike her down before she even gets there?

Also what of the dark magic within Soarin? He's kept quiet about it for a while, but not all is as well as he lets on.

And what of the Shadowbolts? They scattered after the battle with Nightshade. Surely they didn't just disappear.

A story of remaining strong in the face of harsh challenges. Life and love can be tough, but strong hearts always find a way to prevail.

This Fic's length is a bit intimidating, but it is broken into four parts, each of which could be considered their own stories with clear beginnings and conclusions. I decided to keep it all together because it was how my outline was structured (aka i completely underestimated the length).

This is not a Gurren Lagann Crossover. The title was a coincidence. (But said coincidence has led to many references and characters that parody the anime)

This story is a sequel to Head in the Clouds

Written for a small group contest. (Placed 1st! Thank you all for the support!)

Rainbow Dash and Soarin are extremely unsatisfied with how they left their relationship upon parting ways. Friends with benefits sounds nice, but once apart they both realize just how much the other means to them. Unfortunately now neither are in a position to confront the other and reveal what pulls at both their hearts: Love.

Soarin may be duty bound and unable to act, but Dash jumps at an opportunity that could turn their relationship into the direction they both truly want. A story of not accepting barriers. True love exists on all levels and distances.

(Note: this story was admittedly rushed for a contest. Looking back on it now, there are some inconsistencies, such as some of Dash's abilities. The end may seem a bit squished as well. I apologize in advance)

Rainbow Dash finally gets her chance to compete in the Equestria Games, but she has to also face the stallion she loves with all her heart. Will she finally be able to win the gold medal she always desired? She has three different events to compete in; three chances to be on top of the world.

A not-too-complicated SoarinDash story taking place during the Equestria Games and featuring flashbacks to canon events with extra stuff added to them. This story, however, ignores the rule that each pony can only compete in one event, because I am comparing the Equestria Games to the Olympics. It is only just a fanfic, nothing special. This story is in two different timelines: what's happening at the Equestria Games, and what's in Rainbow's memory.

Everything was perfect for Rainbow dash until one day, her mother tells her the most unexpected decision of her life. She agrees but...will she survive?

This is my first story ever. It's a little sad but it's filled with romance and it has a good ending. I'm not really good in grammar so I'll probably have lots of mistakes. Please tell them in your comments. And last thing...enjoy the story!

And now...

With a co-writer: Moonlightprincess002

Long, long ago, when the two worlds of Day and Night split apart, the Wonderbolts and Shadowbolts did as well. The Wonders belonged to the Day and the Shadows, to the Night. Rumors turned them and their worlds against one another, becoming sworn enemies. The bond that once kept them and their worlds together had been reduced to nothing but bitterness and hatred. To ensure no connections were made, a forest full of danger separated each worlds' territory. The dense hatred grew over time. Then, on one fateful day, everything changed.

Soarin, Prince of the Day and an elite Wonderbolt wonders about the Night World. Rainbow Dash, Princess of the Night and an elite Shadowbolt wonders about the Day World. When they meet in their youth, they develop the most forbidden of friendships, meeting in secret as often as they can throughout the years. One day, it turns into something more.

But on the same day, their secret gets out.

Spurred on by hatred and betrayal, the two worlds prepare for war. Can these two friends prove to their people, enemies, and families that love and harmony is possible? Or will they never get the chance to be together like they want?

Follow them on this journey of love, trust, and betrayal as they teach the world and each other what True Love is - putting aside the biggest differences to accept them for who they really are, and to show that they are willing to do anything to ensure that the other is safe and happy.

EDIT (1/21/18): I hate to disappoint you guys, but I'm officially canceling this story. This version, at least. I jumped into this with no plan and in the process, got myself stuck in a messy web of world-building, details, history, and everything that this AU doesn't quite have set in stone yet. I'm leaving this here for your viewing pleasure, though, and I promise you, whenever it is that I get to rebooting this, it'll be much better; because then, it'll actually make sense.
