I am a cloudbender [Pegasus]

by Flash point


5.- Panic!


"Uh!" Flash was about to shoot up into the vast sky, until he was interrupted by a cheerful Derpy who finished delivering the mail early only to receive the much appreciated and promised Muffin.

"Right, your muffin, wait here a few seconds" Derpy just nodded happily as she sat down to wait.

Flash remembered the gingerbread house where a couple was in charge of the place, he remembered seeing how they sold a great variety of cakes, with only two jumps he could reach the place.

"5 Bits!!" A pink mare left the place and gave him a Muffin for some reason, Flash did not think much about it and paid for it and then returned with the same speed.

"Here Derpy, have a nice day, my wings are itching and I need to surf this sky, see yah later!" Flash smiled in excitement when he took off from the ground leaving only a small stream of air that did not indicate anything of the speed with which he ascended.

Soon the electricity filled his fur thus awakening Amperia who only screamed with adrenaline as she held on tightly to Flash's mane.

"Sweet and beautiful freedom!!" Flash yelled with happiness when he fully deployed his wings causing the clouds to move away from him as if they had suffered a strong push.

Flash felt that feeling again, the same feeling when he was a foal and got his cutie mark, all due to the euphoria of finally feeling freedom without being in a heaven where some bitter nobleman Unicorn complains about any aspect of pegasus flying.

"Get ready my little squirrel, we are about to enter F2 towards Everfree where we will enter F3" Amperia only responded with a smile just as manic as the one Flash began to show, she returned to Flash's mane for a moment and then left with some small aviator glasses.

"Hmm, right, I also need to use my glasses and leave my saddlebags" Flash thought when he saw Amperia giving him the indication to be ready.

On a quick dive Flash dove towards Ponyville in the direction of his house, he made a drastic change of direction to the side of his balcony only to toss his saddlebags after he had pulled out his enchanted Sky Goggles and climbed back up.

In all that little moment, Flash only moved with the power of his wings that were very powerful because of the speed with which it allowed him to move along with the drastic changes of direction that he managed to do without feeling pressure or any discomfort.

These little things made Flash proud of the capabilities of his body and obviously his wings.

"Enough height, time to enter Fase (Phase) 2, elimination of friction, becoming part of the air, the air is no longer a nuisance but a guide and a friend who just wants to have fun, but she doesn't like to be pushed" The feathers before Flash's lines were now a bit more open which allowed him a greater sensation of the air breezes so that he could move next to them and not against them, but he did not limit himself there.

"Now start our dance and I'm the leader" Flash's maniacal smile returned along with two simple flaps that made him a blur to the naked eye.

In half a second, Flash arrived out of Ponyville and now he was at the entrance of the Everfree forest, as soon as he entered, he felt a conflict with his connection with his environment, the air currents became erratic entering conflicts every few seconds or moments, everything was... chaotic.

"Hello old friend!" But the smile on Flash's face doesn't flank this unexpected challenge, not when he is someone reincarnated from another universe ruled by chaos.

"Harmony in a chaotic place is also chaotic when going against it, but that is not my way and now you bend!" Flash forced the air currents at his will with a powerful flick of his wings that caused a small wave of pressure that pushed the trees several tens of meters below him.

The tranquility returned as well as his connection with his surroundings that continues to be in constant conflict with a strange entity.

"Chaotic magic... is the only explanation" Flash thought as he felt how his will enters every moment that he is here on top of Everfree something that he has not felt in other very specific rare situations that they always have in common is that there is another individual or entity.

"This... is getting more and more exciting and that I am only fighting for control of the air currents, I can't wait when I have to destroy the chaotic clouds, Ho! Not to mention those beasts, for some reason I have more interest in fighting since I reincarnated and I will not deny that need if I can satisfy it" As a Pegasus, Flash has a penchant for conflict, not for nothing did the Pegasi have the best army.

Currently it is rare to see a pegasus thirsty for combat, but there is always some case where foals or fillies are born with large amounts of desire to fight, most or say that they all end up being part of the army where their natural gift is very useful, Flash didn't end up joining the army just because his great desire overcame that need easily, apart from destroying clouds that somewhat quenches that thirst.

"Now it is time for F3, gather pressure and release pressure, the theory in experimentation is confirmed, I can generate thrust from my wings even in a state of rest and that can be combined with my wing power, along with the air jump, for now I'll only do half, I need to live to continue experimenting" Flash got psyched while staying in the air.

Now Flash is about to take advantage of the strange abilities of a Pegasus that are not fully explored, all Pegasi use these abilities for granted, some with different levels of control, such as being able to become lighter by denying a little of the gravity of the planet, create a pushing force to propel oneself when using Pegasus magic, something that is done unconsciously, that's why the Pegasus do not have such large wings, thanks to the magic that saves that great need.

Thanks to the hellish training that Flash has been undergoing, he managed to have a little control over his own magic and thus be able to deny gravity and propel himself at will and not only when there are strong feelings involved or when it just happens at random moments.

When the time came, Flash gathered air and began to compress it in a very unstable way since it is not something feasible to do to want to replicate the function of a turbine with magic and will, the idea is very abstract and may not be explained, but the The intention is to gather air to use as a thrust force as a second power-up aside from his wings or his leaps.

Forcing this method into a resting state puts a lot of resistance to pressure build-up, but even faster Flash moves through the sky, it becomes easier to hold this trick of his, but this action takes more than half of his concentration to maintain control over the pressure and not end up in an explosion that destroys the clouds and his hind legs, this is the fourth time he has used it to fly, when before he was only making small bombs for fun until he had this crazy idea, but his mother did not raise a coward.

Flash literally wants to drive a fighter jet when he is barely riding a bike, they have nothing in common with the primary ability to push force from his wings to gather pressure under his hind legs and replicate the function of a turbine by sucking in air, compress it to exert greater force when releasing it.

Unable to hold back the pressure under his hooves any longer, he release them-- *BOOM!!*

Flash shot out like a projectile out of control, the shock wave caused by the explosion due to the pressure difference left him disoriented for a couple of seconds in which his body flew alone until he could regain his concentration and he performed the trick again.

Flash first just kept his wings outstretched while he concentrated on redoing the magic wind turbine it took his whole being to do it, and when he did, it was difficult to hold him as he fought the chaos of the forest.

Flash's smile disappeared, it was not because of the explosion, but because that same feeling of discomfort returned with force, the feeling was remarkable and more when he understands what causes it.

"The idea is a good fantasy, but in practice it is just a useless hindrance, I guess I can't have everything in life... Tch!" To shake the bitter taste of a failed experiment from his mouth, Flash decided to fly at full power to enjoy the rest of the day.

He withdrew his will and magic to create the turbine and gathered it into his wings and prepared them for the next flap.

* Foosh! *

Flash managed to triple his speed in an instant with just one flap while he still pushed his body with his full weight, if he reduced his weight it would only cause him to crash against the sound barrier thus causing his control to flank.

"Hell, I want to see how much I can take!" Flash's maniacal laugh came back when he filled his body with his magic thus becoming lighter, something that his wings felt instantly, but Flash did not stop there as he performed a powerful kick to the sky, the acceleration was... monstrous.

Holding his wings to flap became difficult, the sound barrier began to slow him down in a fight of wills, but Flash had not yet left all his tricks out of his hooves, there was still one aspect that he did not release and it was his nature that made him earn your cutie mark.


* BOOM!! *

Flash succeeded, smashing the sound barrier like lightning when he released all the energy he had accumulated, a blue electric shock wave filling the sky instead of a rainbow as it happened years ago.

Ten years to achieve the same as a filly ... not enough, I need to be able to generate a greater explosion with each of my flaps, when I jump and especially when I release my magic pressure that is the key to breaking the barrier of the sound!!" Flash stopped as high as he could get where the frost began to gather on his fur.

"Damn! Amperia!!!" Panic filled Flash when he saw Amperia fall with a silly happy smile but fear arose in Flash as he remembered that she is a creature of the ground not born for great heights.
