My Little Pony: When Generations Collide

Short: Why the switch (Newbie Dash AU Add-on)

"Wait back up, I thought Rainbow Dash would be in Wonderbolt Academy at this point in time? I mean, that's what my dad told me about." Sunny said.

"It seems some changes have already happened before Yin-Yang interfered with everything." Starlight noted.

"Yeah, I bet he told you something like 'Lightning Dust caused the tornado incident' or something to that effect." Rainbow Dash said.

"Yeah. That's what he said." Sunny said.

"...Well the thing is...I told Spitfire the truth." Rainbow Dash said.


Flashback

"Just because you handed in your resignation, doesn't mean I'm going to accept it." Spitfire said.

"You don't get it. I was hoping Soarin was wrong, I really was, but you've shown me that he was right: You don't care about your fellow Wonderbolts at all." Rainbow Dash said.

"Still, if it wasn't for you, that tornado could've done a lot of damage." Spitfire said.

"...If it wasn't for me, that tornado would've never happened in the first place. I enabled Lightning Dust, got way too competitive with her, and it caused that Tornado." Rainbow Dash said.

"What are you saying?" Spitfire asked.

"I'm saying that I should be held just as responsible for that tornado as Lightning Dust was." Rainbow Dash said. "Look, I don't care if you say you made me a wing pony in order to put my ego in check. I've already had my ego checked by my friends as it is. So I didn't need it rechecked. And what's worse, you put some pony who was reckless in charge over me." She added. "So the Wonderbolts are just not where I see myself being in five years." The cyan mare said before flying off.

Rainbow Dash just left Spitfire there, brooding over her choices.
