When your life is as dull a gray as the world that surrounds you, the mundanities can make it all seem meaningless. Sometimes all we need is a little color -- or six -- to reintroduce us to what truly makes life worth living.

*6-16-2017 Edit, added Rainbow Dash tag because it triggered knighty.*

For more than a millennium, it was believed that the princesses were immortal. But as time marched ever forward, it become clear that even the alicorns won't live forever.

Princess Celestia is at the end of her life.

While Equestria must find a way to cope with this new reality, those that are truly suffering are those closest to her. None are struggling as much as her sister, Princess Luna. Not only is she forced to handle the duties of ruling Equestria and taking care of the transition, she must also cope with the imminent death of her beloved sister.

This story is a sequel to Free Falling

After bumping into each other during a rainstorm, the adventure between Rainbow Dash and Soarin continues when Soarin decides where they should go to hangout over the weekend together.

Rainbow Dash doesn't act so much like her normal, brash self when she's around Soarin, and this doesn't go unnoticed by a certain, pink Earth pony...

Oh boy.

Rainbow Dash loves flying more than anything else in the world. Anyone can see the passion that burns in her eyes while she's soaring high above the clouds riding the tailwinds. She lives for adventure no matter what the cost may be.

Does anything out there have the ability to outrival her love of flight?
