After an incident at home, Fluttershy is sent to Summer Flight Camp. As she struggles to find out who she is and why everyone hates her, she meets a new friend—sort of—called Rainbow Dash, who allows her to forget what happened at home. Until Gilda comes back.

After a dispute between Twilight and Rainbow about the latest Daring Do novel, Rainbow struggles to make Twilight see things her way. Yet, no matter what she tries, Twilight is adamant that what Rainbow believes is unrealistic and could never happen. However, a day of baking shenanigans and a night at Twilight's soon makes Rainbow question how she feels towards her friend. Could there be something more than just friendship between the two?

Hardships serve to reveal true friends and expose false ones. True friends are not bound by convenience, rather by the ability to stick together and pick each-other back up when times are rough, even if the two "friends" barely know each other.

This is the lesson Fluttershy learned the first time she met Rainbow Dash, back when the cyan pegasus stood up for her against the most popular filly in Cloudsdale Flight School. A time when Fluttershy's own "friends" didn't stand up for her.

This is the story about how Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash, two fillies with radically different personalities, became friends.

Set shortly after The Mysterious Mare Do Well.

Perhaps Rainbow Dash had read a few too many comic books? Seen one too many hero movies. Either way, this was not going to end well for anypony.

Rainbow Dash has decided since each of her friends (aside from Rarity) have gotten a chance, she wants to give being The Mysterious Mare Do Well a try. The only problem? Ponyville is too peaceful. It seems all the craziness that had happened the past week has passed, and there really isn't any need for a costumed crime fighter now.

Twilight, seeing Rainbow Dash's annoyance at not being able to be a hero, takes it upon herself to help her friend experience a super hero adventure. By creating the powerful, the terrifying, the surprisingly sarcastic, Professor Nightshade.

Yeah, this is totally going to end well.

My entry into the TwiDash group's first Fanfiction Contest.

Yes, this is for the TwiDash group, so there will obviously be TwiDash inside.
