//------------------------------// // Chapter 2: Zipp Gets Her Wings // Story: MLP G5 Sunset: Tell Your Tale: Season 1 // by JesusG0987 //------------------------------// Chapter 2: Zipp Gets Her Wings In the middle of the day, Zipp is flying around Maritime Bay at a quick fast paste as she zooms around, bounced off a trampoline and zooms straight to the sky viewing the sun as she zooms down to ground in a puff of smoke, sliding and standing straight with pride.  While she smiled to herself of her best fliyng, her sister, Pipp was livestreaming the whole thing through her phone, which Zipp noticed in shock. “That's all, Zippsters! Pipp called out as Zipp sped away from the view of the camera, Pipp thought to give Zipp her own video livestream by filming her big sister’s flying. “Like and subscriiiiibe!” Pipp sang the last part while waving at the camera as Zipp came next to her and came to her sister’s side with an irritated look, which Pipp noticed. “Stop trying to make "Zippsters" happen, Pipp!” Zipp called out while Pipp flinched from her sister’s reaction. “I don't want followers!” She added as she put Pipp’s phone down, ending the livestream before Zippsters became an even more thing that it has to do with her sister livestreaming her flying tricks. A little while later at a fruit stand, Sunny is serving her fruit smoothies to Hitch and Izzy while Sunset is helping Sunny out. A while ago, Sunset asks Sunny that if she can work at the smoothie stand with her, to get a job while being in a new Equestria era while adapting to the times and being there for Sunny, which Sunny agreed fully heartily to give Sunset the job, so far, Sunset's been helping Sunny with the smoothie deliveries while also making more smoothies at twice the time, which makes the smoothie business booming with the two heroes of equestria working there.   Sunny then gave two smoothies to the two of her best friends. “And that's two pineapple punch smoothies with extra…” she called out as she turned around and saw that the fruit supplies in the crates were empty, which also surprised her along with Hitch and Izzy looking at the back. “Nothing?” she asked in surprise, seeing how fast the fruits supplies were spend as she turned to see Sunset coming back with the smoothie cart she is moving. “Sunset, your back. How has your delivery service been?” Sunny asked. Sunset looked at Sunny with a smile. “It was great, Sunny. The customers were grateful for getting their smoothies and I got a big tip.” she added as she showed a dozen or so bits in her saddle bag. With her wings and magic, she can make smoothies and deliver them at a fast paste. “Good for you.” Sunny told her with a smile as she grew a concerned look. “Hey, Sunset, have you seen any fruit deliveries lately, because we ran out of fruit. I used the last of it to make these two smoothies for Hitch and Izzy here.” she pointed out the last remaining smoothies. Sunset frowned at the dilemma and answered Sunny. “Sorry, Sunny. Haven’t seen any fruit deliveries all day. They should’ve sent us the supplies by now.” she added. “Huh. That is strange.” Sunny commented as she turned to Hitch and Izzy with an apologictic expression. “Sorry, everypony. Our fruit delivery was supposed to get here hours ago.” She spoke out of the schedule of the fruit supplies that should’ve been here by now. Izzy then gave them a smile as she spoke. “I mean, you know what they say – a late delivery is probably a safe one.” She suggested the delivery is probably being safe and will be here soon. “I don’t know, Izzy. If you think it would be a safe delivery, they would’ve been here by now.” Sunset replied. “I mean, what kept them from bringing the supplies?” she commented right before the group started seeing a shadow overhead the group. “Huh?” Hitch questioned where did that come from. “What was that?” Sunset commented. Sunny then looked out the window and saw what’s up in the sky. “Huh?” questioned in shock. The four ponies gasp in shock as a Pegasus mare with the fruit supplies came crashing down right into a glasses stand as fruits came flying by. Both Sunny, Izzy and Sunset screamed while Hitch looked in shock while the three former ponies duck for cover from the fruits, Hitch wasn’t so lucky as a green fruit splat right into his face. The three girls looked at the crash site and saw the Pegusus mare. The Pegasus has iris-colored hooves and bright lilac eyes. Her mane, tail, and flight feathers are light yellow. Her mane is wavy and tied in a ponytail with a light green tie. She wears a pink visor and bag. Her Cutie Mark is two yellow shooting stars with trails that match the color of her hooves. She groans from the crash as she is covered in fruit juice.  The Pegasus recovered quickly as she stood up and cleared her throat as she spoke out in a nervous voice. “Fifi's Flying Fruit Smoothies Smooth Fruit Delivery Service! Where every delivery is... smooth.” She said with a sheepish smile to the stand that she crashed as an Earth Pony mare slipped on a banana peel and fell to the ground as an Earth Pony stallion looked in shock at the destruction of the stand. The three ponies looked in shock at the sight as Sunset broke ths silence. “Well, I guess we know why our fruit delivery was late.” she said as Sunny shook her head in agreement. Sunset continued. “Oh, Celestia. Ever since the magic returned, the Pegasi has been having a hard time flying, since they haven’t flown to the sky in many moons.” she added. “Yeah, I see what you mean, Sunset.” Hitch commented. “This can’t go any longer, I have to fill out the paperwork for this stand and report about this.” He added on his sheiff duty in need to do the paperwork of today’s incident. “Hitch, this is serious.” Sunset rolled her eyes at Hitch’s only focusing on his job. “If these Pegasi don’t fly properly, then not only are the stands and more crashes will happen again, but somepony are gonna get hurt if the Pegasi don’t start practicing their flying.” she added as she is concerned about the Pegasi lack of flying. Pipp came to the group with a concern frown as well after seeing the crash. “I agree with Sunset you guys. We need to find a solution to the Pegasi lack of flying. I can’t stand to see one of my own falling like that. It’s not right.” She added in a personal manner since she is a Pegasi herself. “We need to help these Pegasi to fly better. No way me and Sunny could do it, we can barely handle our wings for just a proper flight. And Pipp just know how to fly straight thanks to those wires back at the Zehpyr Heights Castle.” Sunset commented on the fact that she and Sunny barely got a handle of their own wings themselves while Pipp only followed flight patterns thanks to the wires. “We need somepony who knows more about flying than any of us combined. And I know just the pony who would be right for the job.” she commented with a smirk as she and the others looked at Zipp walking to them. Zipp laughs at the incident, finding it funny that a Pegasus can’t fly right. “Whoa. Somepony really needs to teach these Pegasi how to fly.” she pointed out as she continued to laugh. The rest of the mane Mane 6 all thought what Sunset was thinking as they looked at her with sparkling eyes. “Ahhhh…” they said together as Pipp brought Fifi into the group, looking confused as to why they were looking at Zipp. Zipp stopped laughing and looked at her friends with a worried expression, knowing what her friends were thinking. “Oh. No-no-no-no-no!” Zipp nervously started out as she started to sweat and waved her hoof to clear her point. “Teaching Sunset and Sunny to fly is already hard enough. There's no way I would ever…” She was cut off as her friends are still staring at her, knowing that their minds are made up. A while later, the others finally convince Zipp to teach the Pegasi to fly as they are in an open clearing from Maritime Bay where Zipp is recruiting her students, two of her royal guards, Zoom and Thunder, and a pink Pegasus named Windy, in front of the mane 6, ready to learn how to fly.  Zipp reads the introduction in an unenthusiastic way next to a sign that saids WINGS with Zipp’s lightning bolt for the I and her wings in the sides. "Welcome to W-I-N-G-S. ‘The Wonderful Institute of No-Gravity Skywalking?’” She questioned the title in confusion of the name. “It means flight school.” Pipp corrected as she came to her sister’s side with a smile. “It's really more of a one-off training day.” Zipp pointed out to Pipp on not planning on keeping teaching the Pegasi about flying for the rest of her life, just so they can teach others on how to fly on their own so they can teach the other Pegasi to fly right. “I was told it's an academy.” Zoom pointed out, very interested in flying right. Fifi then came to the rookies. “Uh, is this the University of Flying?” she questioned with a confused smile. Zipp then raised an eyebrow look to Pipp, who smiled nervously as she backed away. Zipp then turned to the others as Sunset, Sunny, and Izzy, Sunny shrug, Sunset whistles inconncently, Izzy shook her head while Hitch laughs in saying the names they’ve picked, but ended when Izzy sent a glare to the sheriff. “Huh?” Hitch questioned, but got the hint as he shook his head, saying it’s not him either. Sunset stopped whistling and looked at Zipp with an apologetic look. “Sorry, Zipp. We didn’t come up with the proper name for your teachings and news, we didn’t have time to think of one, it was rush hour at the time.” Sunset admitted with a sheepish look. Zipp faced hoof herself as she sighed. “Ugh, whatever. Let's just get started.” she pointed out as she turned to the rookies. “Who can tell me how to do a double roulette twist?” she asked them with a smile. The four Pegasi looked confused and stayed silent for a moment until Windy spoke. “Oh! I know about flapping!” she answered as she flapped her wings to prove her point. Zipp face hoof again, seeing that not what she meant when she asked that question. Sunny and Sunset came to Zipp as Sunny spoke. “Uh, Zipp?” She questioned. “What is it?” Zipp asked with a look. Windy came behind her, thinking Zipp asked her. “Oh, it's when you move your wings up and down over and—” she said but was cut off. “Not you, Windy.” Zipp pointed out with a look, which Windy just stared in surprise as she looked back at Sunny and Sunset. Sunset spoke out. “Zipp, I get your teaching them, but I think you went to the advance, and they are beginners to what flying really means. I mean, Sunny and I know what your lessons mean because, well, I’m from ancient Equestria and know the basics of Pegasi flying and I’ve told Sunny on how they worked” She pointed out as she continued. “Why not teach them how to fly instead of asking them questions about something they don’t know yet.” she pointed out. “Sunset’s right, Zipp.” Sunny said. “Maybe you start with something simpler. Like an obstacle course?” She suggested a simple task to know how to fly for a Pegasi, Sunset nodded in agreement with Sunny. “Obstacle course?” Zipp asked in surprise. “I don't have an…” she was cut off by a certain Unicron voice. “Ta-daaaaa!” Izzy cheered out as the group turned to her and saw that Izzy had used her ‘Unicycling’ skills to create an obstacle course, with a starting line, a jumping board, some hoops for flying, the basics. The starting line sign tilted a bit but Izzy ran to it and straightened it out. “What?!” Zipp called out in surprise as Sunny and Sunset both smiled at the sight. “Where did that come from?!” She questioned how Izzy made that obstacle course that fast. “That’s Izzy being Izzy.” Sunset commented with a smile. “When there’s something to make, she won’t stop until it is complete, and less than two seconds too. A new record.” she added as Izzy shriek in excitment on breaking her own record again. Pipp came up next to sister with a smile. “Over to you, captain.” she spoke out with a salute. “I'm not a capta—!” Zipp yelled out but stopped in midsection, seeing that there’s not stopping them. “...Fine.” She groaned as she came to the students. “Everyone, watch carefully.” She spoke with a calm voice as she demonstrated her flying tricks to the rookies as she flew to the air at the starting point, then flew up and down through the first obstacles as she zig zag through the hoops, flew straight to the clouds as she grab some, after learning from Sunset that Pegasi can grab clouds for the weather, and used the clouds to make a Pegasus shape. Down below, the four Pegasi students have their jaws dropped in awe at Zipp's expert flying stunt.  Sunset saw this and looked at Zipp with a smirk. “Show off.” She commented, seeing Zipp’s flying reminded Sunset of Rainbow Dash’s flying and stunts thanks to some moving pictures Twilight showed her, which is no different to how Human Rainbow Dash kept practicing her stunts and super speed back in the day. Zipp flew over them, amuse to their looks on what they had just seen. “Easy.” She said, “Now who wants to go first?” She asked any Pegasi to show how they fly after seeing how she flew. Still shock from Zipp’s stunt, none of the students spoke out volunteering, so Windy lifted Thunder’s hoof, not wanting her to try it out, with Thunder unoticeably saw that. Thunder regained his composure and saw that his hoof was lifted. “Huh? Uh…” he questioned how his hoof was lifted as he began to whimper nervously. “All right. You're up, Thunder.” Zipp called out as Thunder was nervous. Thunder then came to the starting point as he looked at the sign, looking dizzy while looking at it. “Uh…” He said as he flew up, but hit the starting sign with a grunt as he crashed to the floor, the other three Pegasi cringe at the sight as Thunder groans in slight pain. Zipp looked with a sigh. “This is gonna be a loooong day.” She said, stating that this flying lesson is gonna be harder than she thought. Sunset looked at this, seeing that they’re gonna be here for a while to teach these Pegasi to fly. Windy came next, staring at the starting line with a determined look, ready to start the obstacle course.  Before she starts, she sees a daisy flower in front of her with a cute face on it. Windy then shrieked in fear. “Aah! Daisies!” She cried out as she zip away and ran to a bush behind Zipp and Sunset who saw this. “My greatest fear!” She cried out as Zipp shook her head, while Sunset looked with a sigh, seeing how scared Windy is over a daisy flower.  Zipp, Sunset and Hitch were next to each other. Hitch snorted at the funniness on how teaching the Pegasi to fly is funny. Sunset glared at him for finding this funny, making Hitch stop snorting from the sight after seeing Sunset’s glared. Zipp narrowed her eyes at Hitch as she spoke up. “Okaaaay... Next?” She questioned who was next to fly. It was now Fifi's turn, Hitch cheered to the Pegasus as he waved at her, for encouragement to her to fly. “Whoo-hoo!” he shouted out. “Show us what you got, Fifi!” Sunset cheered out. Fifi looked with a determined smile as she spread her wings, with her fruit cart behind her to see if she can do it without crashing this time, as she flew over the starting line, but her cart hit the sign as she rolled in the air, then crashed to the ground, with her fruits falling out of the cart as she crashed, her head pop up in dizziness as Hitch did as well, being the pony who was a victim in the crash as Hitch groans, seeing that he was covered in fruit again with a piece of a watermelon on his head. Sunset and Zipp saw them and covered their muzzle to try and muffle the laughter. “Even though she didn’t get it right, it was still funny to see Hitch get karma from time to time.” Sunset commented, since Hitch was one of the few ponies from the start who doubted Sunny about the magic, friendship and the three tribes over the years beside her, Sunset, Izzy and Zipp. Zipp snorted in agreement. “Yeah, I could watch that all day.”  she snorted which didn’t go unheard. “I can hear you two, you know!” Hitch called out in annoyance, leaving the two ponies to laugh at this. Zoom flew up straight to the sky, sloppy grabbing some clouds as he zoomed around, making the clouds he caught into a shape of a sloppy pegasus picture that Zipp did earlier, but was sloppy and had a frown face. Zipp looked at it with a raised eyebrow look while Izzy shook her head with sparkly eyes and a smile in seeing the picture, Zipp looked at her as Izzy corrected herself in shaking her head in disagreement with the picture. Hitch and Sunset were using safety sticks to help Fifi to steady her flying as Fifi fell on her back with a grunt, the fruit cart crashed as well, making Hitch looked in shock while Sunset used her magic to shield herself, but didn’t have time to cover Hitch as a fruit hit him in the face, again. Which causes Hitch to take a bored expression as he groans from the fruit to the face again. Sunset laughs at his bad luck. “Ahahahah! That never gets old anytime soon.” she snorted as Hitch looked at her with an unamuse expression. “Yeah, yeah, laugh it up, Sunset.” Hitch replied. Izzy, Sunset and Sunny then pushed Windy to try to fly through the starting line with Pipp right in front of them livesteaming the whole thing. Windy then started screaming, not wanting to try that again, afraid of seeing more daisies that she might see. Zoom and Thunder crash into each other in the air with pain grunts. A little while later, the four Pegasi were on the ground, Fifi, Thunder and Zoom were groaning from their crashes as Windy had a freak out expression while rocking back-in-forth while there were piles of fruits everywhere around them. Zipp and Sunset looked at the four with sweats coming from them. “Okay, that didn’t go so well then we hoped.” Sunset commented as she looked at Zipp. Zipp spoke out. “Well, I'm sure you all enjoyed that more than I did.” she said as she spread her wings. “Good luck.” she said to her the four pegasi as she flew away, leaving her friends behind as she can’t take it anymore. The remaining mane 6 looked at Sunset with concerned looks, Sunset saw this as she sighs to herself. “Yeah, okay. I’ll go get her.” Sunset spread her wings and flew after Zipp, seeing that the guardian of friendship would give some advice to Zipp. Zipp then landed on a hill as she looked down in exhaustion. Sunset came behind her as she landed.  “Zipp, you know you can’t just turn your back on your students. They need to know how to fly.” Sunset pointed out. “I get that, Sunset. But what should I do?” Zipp asked the alicorn. “They don’t even know how to fly right since the magic returned, and teaching you and Sunny was hard enough. But training four other Pegasi how to fly, that’s a completely different story.” Zipp pointed out what happened at the obstacle course. Sunset sighs as she replies. “Zipp, the way you taught me and Sunny how to fly is no different than how to teach other ponies how to fly.” She pointed out. “Take me for example, I’m basically the only pony in all of Equestria who still knows how to do magic right. And I’ve been teaching Sunny and Izzy how to practice their magic along with some other Unicorns that volunteer to learn more about it if they wanted to, with my experience of knowledge of magic, some of the books that Sunny has in her dad’s records on how Unicorn magic works, and some of the books I have when I was out of Equestria for a long time.” She pointed out, remembering before she escaped through the mirror the first time, she brought some of her personal belongings, including some of the spell books on Unicorn magic, to make sure she remembered her magic if she ever set foot in Equestria again. “The point is, you can’t just give up on them, they need a teacher to help them learn how to fly, and since you have been more experience in flying while under the station of Zephyr Heights while trying to learn on the magic of flying over the years thanks to the giant fan and fake flying lessons you and your family had done over the years, you’re basically the only Pegasus in all of Equestria that knows how to fly. Why did you think me, and our friends picked you to be a teacher for these Pegasi? Because you're the best flyer out there.” she said with a smile as Zipp reminded Sunset more of Rainbow Dash back in the day when she was known as the greatest flyer in all of Equestria, and the fastest as well.   Zipp was then inspired by Sunsets’s words as she saw something below them. “Huh.” She spoke out as she and Sunset, who turned and saw what Zipp was looking at, saw two Pegasi, a mother and a foal, with the mother teaching her son how to fly as she lifted her son into the air. Sunset and Zipp watched as the foal was flying into the air briefly as he giggled. But stopped when he lost his balance and fell. “Whoa!” it shouted as he fell to the ground. The mother gasps in shock on seeing her son fall as she runs towards him to see if he’s alright. To her relief, her son landed on a bush, she picked him up. “Yay!” She cheered out for her son at his first flight as the two nuzzled each other's heads. Sunset finds it cute for those two Pegasi, while Zipp is having a flashback on her trying to fly before the magic was restored when she was just a filly. Flashback: Years ago when the three tribes were still divided and the magic was lost, Young Zipp was trying to fly with her mother, Queen Haven, beside her daughter with a smile, who placed pillows all over the floor so Zipp wouldn't hurt herself while trying to fly.  Young Zipp then giggled as she jumped up and down the chair as she flipped over the air and spread her wings, thinking she was flying, but didn’t fly as she fell to the floor with a grunt. “Aah! Ugh!” She crashed into the pillows to soften her landing as she got out of the pile with a pillow on her head, Zipp then whimpered as she couldn’t fly, thinking that she would never fly like the other Pegasi couldn’t either. Queen Haven then came to her daughter with an encouraging smile. “Come on, Zephyrina.” She said Zipp’s full name as she encouraged her daughter to keep trying. “Don't give up.” she spoke to her, wanting her daughter to keep trying. Even back then, Queen Haven evening believed that they would fly someday, and she didn't want her daughter giving up that dream. Young Zipp then got a determined look as she got out of the pile and then hopped to her mother, trying to fly as she hopped from pillow to pillow with a grunt from hopping on each pillow as she flips and glides to her mother. “Hah!” she cheered as her mother caught her in her hooves. Queen Haven smiled at her daughter’s determination to keepi trying and never give up. “Don't give up!” she repeated as she echoed the same words to her daughter to never give up as the two royals hugged each other. End of flashback: Back to the present, Zipp has a heartful look from that memory she had with her mother, encouraging her not to give up something she dreamed of and wanting that dream to other Pegasi as well, while thinking what Sunset said to her early really brings Zipp's heart to a beat. Sunset saw this and seeing Zipp with a heartful look and a smile on her face, she guessed that after seeing the two Pegasi they saw earlier triggered something in Zipp’s memory that encouraged her to keep trying. She then saw that Izzy is right next to Zipp’s left ear, whispering the word that was in Zipp’s flashback, which somehow Izzy knows as well. “Don't give up. Don't give up. Don't give up.” Izzy repeated the same word, which Zipp now noticed with her raised eyebrows. Zipp then turned to the said unicorn with a smile. “Thanks, Izzy.” she said to her as Izzy smiled back to them. Zipp then turned to Sunset. “Thanks for the word of advice, Sunset. I guess I shouldn’t give up if those Pegasi need me to teach them to fly, I won’t give up on them.” She said with a smile. Sunset smiled back, seeing that Zipp had a change of heart. “You're welcome, Zipp. Now, how about we get back to teaching those four Pegasi how to fly?” She suggested as the three ponies looked down at the four Pegsai groaning from this their flying lessons as they laid to the ground. “All right!” Zipp called out to them as the four Pegasi looked at her as she was flying over them wit\h a smile. “Listen up! I'm gonna get you flying if it's the last thing I do!” She cleared her throat and corrected herself. “Before five. Day ends at five.” she pointed out with a hoof raise with a smile. The four Pegasi laugh and cheer at Zipp’s giving them another chance as they all stand tall and proud as they all now have a determined look, ready to learn how to fly. A while later back at the obstacle course, Thunder then flew straight through it while dodging a couple of obstacles that came his way, but trip on one as he was about the crash, but the mane 6 are prepared this time as Pipp and Zipp were using two air blowersto blow Zoom back into the air to keep trying. Zoom is nervously laughing as he is tied to a rope around his mid waist with Sunny tied to the other end to help Zoom with his balance as Sunny trotted across the field, then hit a pile of clouds as he then make a Pegasus picture again, a little sloppy but better than the last one, which Zipp nodded her head in approvement. Fifi was then whooshing through the obstacle course with her fruit cart again, but this time, she went through the obstacle as she was flying to the ‘X’ that Hitch and Sunset made with some paint as the two said ponies were using the safety sticks again to help her out with her balance. Fifi sticks the landing perfectly, but her fruit cart wasn’t so lucky as it flew over her and crashed. “Huh?” Fifi commented in confusion as she looked to where her fruit cart crashed into. Sunset was next to the crashed cart with the fruits spilled out, but Hitch was unlucky again, as he is covered in spilled fruit with a watermelon on his head as he groans from the crash and sighs in his bad luck. “Why am I the only one who gets fruit from this stuff?” Hitch question. Sunset laughs at this sight again.  “Fifi may have stuck the landing but looks like her fruit cart and the fruits really keep getting you all ‘juiced’ up from them!” She laughs as Fifi laughs as well, seeing this funny, but needs to remember to slow down her landing a bit if her fruit cart needs to land properly.  Izzy then gave up a shock puppet show with a daisy and a puppet of Windy to help Windy to get over her fears of a daisy, with said Pegasus laying on a recliner chair, who is shaking in fear while watching the show. “‘I'm Windy! Come on, daisy! Let's be friends!’” Izzy laughs up as she reveals her head over to Windy as she looks at her. Windy nervous whimper with a smile, her fear of daisies are dewitlling, but enough to start flying without fear. Then the four Pegasi then started flying around, with Zipp looking at them with pride, seeing how they had improved. Hitch’s crew was watching the whole thing as McSnips tried to fly by flapping his claws, but fell off the bench he and the two birds were sitting at. Thunder zoomed through the obstacle perfectly, Zoom flew to the clouds and made a perfect copy of Zipp with the right picture this time, Zoom laughed at his accomplishment, Fifi flew through the hoops and landed on the ground with a grunt, this time, her cart didn’t fell out or crash this time as she laughs at her success.  Hitch’s crew then showed McSnips how to flap propper, the crab tried it and made sure he didn’t fall off again.  Izzy then made a necklace out of daisies she made for Windy, who gasps in shock as Izzy throws the necklace into the air. “Whoo-hoo!” Izzy cheered as the necklace landed around Windy’s neck. Windy was a little freak but then calmed down as the daisies weren’t doing anything to her. “Oh!” She then gasps with a smile as she realizes that the daisies aren’t bad and she wasn’t afraid anymore. Izzy and Windy then started laughing at the whole fear of daisies then and Windy was glad that she wasn’t afraid of them anymore. Then the four Pegasi then flew side to side with each other as they then flew at top speed, at that reaction, they made a rainbow base on their coat colors as they flew by. Sunset and Zipp saw this as they both formed a proud smile. Sunset was happy that Zipp finally tought the Pegasi how to fly, and create a rainbow at best, while Zipp is smiling at her accomplishment and hard teaching she gave to her students. A while later, the four Pegasi returned and Zipp gave them waste bands, with that a rainbow with Zipp’s wings and Cutie Mark on it as they looked at Zipp with a smile who said pony and the rest of the mane 6 are on stage, which Izzy whipped up, with a rainbow, two Pegasi next to a graduation hat on top, and Zipp’s wings on the side. “Cadets!” Zipp shouted. “This morning, you looked like a bunch of Earth ponies with wings taped to your back!” “Awww…” Fifi groans in disappointment through their first lessons, with the other Pegasi looking on in confusion. Zipp continued with a smile. “But now you're captains of the sky!” she said cheerfully as the Pegasi smiled with joy. “Ooh!” Fifi said joyfully. “You may now throw your hats.” Zipp called out as it was time for them to celebrate. The Pegasi cheered as they threw their hats to the sky, but accidentally hit a Pegasus Fruit Delivery who was carrying a fruit cart as well. “Aah!” The Pegasus shouted as she crashed to the ground and fruit flew out of the cart. And as karma struck  again, Hitch was hit by a pineapple, but Sunset and Pipp remained untouch. “Huh?” Sunset and Pipp questioned as they looked at Hitch with an irritated look as he groaned.  Sunset laughs a little at the sight again. “What are you, some kind of earth pony fruit boomerang?” She joked to the sheriff of Maritime Bay who rolled his eyes at her. “Yeah, yeah. Laugh it up.” Hitch said in an amusing look and tone. The four Pegasi then laugh at their accomplishments of flying as Sunset and Sunny came to Zipp’s side as she smiled at her cadets. “Zipp, that was amazing. You're a natural.” Sunny commented with a smile as she placed a hoof on Zipp. “A natural? More like awesome!” Sunset corrected with a smile. “You have tought these Pegasi how to fly in one day and help them out to complete their goal!” She added, a praise that Rainbow Dash would use if she was here she would be proud at the sight. “If my friend Rainbow Dash was here, she would be applauding to you for your accomplish teachings to these Pegasi and the flying lessons as well.” She added with a smile. Zipp then smiled at their comments as she placed a hoof over her chin with a smile. “Thanks, you two. I suppose it was kind of fun.” She admitted throught this experience. “You know, maybe I'll run that flight school after all…” She suggested, which shocks Sunset and Sunny about it after what they went through today, but Zipp continued with a smirk. “When crabs fly!” she finished with a smile. Sunny and Sunset both smiled as they and Zipp started laughing at the joke as the entire group enjoyed their moments. Unknownest to them, Hitch’s crew, the two birds, starts carrying McSnip into the air for him to experience what flying is as they flew to the sky and into the clouds. Chapter 2 End.
