Night Wing was getting the Shadowbolts ready for the Equestria Games when she noticed Rainbow Dash is running late. "Seriously? She's late? Now of all times?" Night Wing asked. Suddenly, without warning, she felt something split the air, and then she saw a rainbow appear in the sky. "ISN'T THAT THE SONIC RAINBOOM?!" Night Wing Exclaimed.
And the mare who was capable of pulling it off, suddenly zoomed right in front of Night Wing. "Th-the Wonderbolts...Soarin...replacement..." Rainbow Dash said, breathing heavily.
"Whoa there Rainbow; why don't you catch your breath first and then tell me what's got you all in a fuss right now?" Night Wing asked.
Rainbow Dash managed to catch her breath. "I was out practicing at Rainbow Falls early this morning as I wanted to make sure I was in top form for the Equestrian Games..." Rainbow Dash said.
"You do realize Rainbow Falls is a good three hours from here right?" Night Wing asked.
"You realize that Rainbow Dash just used the Sonic Rainboom to skedaddle over here, right captain?" Thunderlane asked.
"...Point taken." Night Wing said.
"But that's not why I skaddled over here nor why I was late to begin with." Rainbow Dash said. "I could've made it here on time, if Spitfire wasn't basically looking to replace her co-captain after he sprained a wing during training."
"Wait, Soarin sprained one of his wings?!" Night Wing exclaimed.
"But that's not the worst part. Spitfire was being all non-chalant about it; acting like nothing was wrong at all." Rainbow Dash said. "So when I got her to tell me Soarin was in the Infirmary, I rushed over and talked to him for a little while. Safe to say, when he heard about a replacement being looked for for his position in the Equestria Games, he was NOT happy."
"I doubt he would be." Night Wing said.
"I wonder if Soarin's going to jump over to our team once he gets better." Thunderlane said.
"He'll have to go through our tests same as the rest of those that join up. I'm not going to show any special treatment, even if he's the one I accidentally injured during my Wonderbolt Cadet days." Night Wing said.
"Which is just not cool that that happened to you captain." Rainbow Dash said.
"So, what do you plan on doing?" Night Wing asked.
"I say we really train hard, and let's show Spitfire the true meaning of Loyalty." Rainbow Dash said.
"Good answer." Night Wing said. "Here; it's not really much but take this." She said, tossing over a Wonderbolt Pin.
"Isn't this a Wonderbolt Cadet Pin? How'd you end up with this?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"Let's just say I quit the Cadets without turning in my pin. No rule saying I had to do it afterall. Figured I take it as a sovineer." Night Wing said. "Now, I want you to have it. Let it be your symbol of Loyalty."
"I'll do just that captain." Rainbow Dash said.
Meanwhile, at Golden Oak's Library
"Tch. Again? Seriously?" Jackson asked.
"That's what I overheard. You don't really have jurisdiction yet on this, but I have a feeling if something happens with the upcoming elementary school presidential election, I'm going to need you on guard." Raiden said. "That way, we'll catch that no good stallion in the act."
"I can't exactly arrest him period. But I can at least hold him for Miss Cheerilee to get the Royal Guard over here to Ponyville." Jackson said. "Besides, this'll at least allow me to do something while Fortus's mother is still alive." He said. "...I just wish I could've done the same with Milissa."
"What exactly happened with her mother anyways? Is that when Marina captured her?" Twilight asked.
"I don't think Marina existed yet, but if you want the report, feel free to look at it." Jackos said before sliding over a police report. Twilight opened up the folder, and became horrified at what she was seeing.
"Th-that female mawile...she was obviously killed the same way as Raiden's parents. I should know. I found him next to his dead parents." Lightning said.
"But that's impossible; Marina couldn't have done it if she didn't exist yet back then." Raiden said.
"That's because it was Milissa's father." Jackson said.
Police Report H0-69
Victim: Malana Horris
Culprit: Victus Horris
Details: For the longest time, a case against Victus Horris was unable to stick since the police had no real evidence. But thanks to the victim's own daughter Milissa, a recording of the murder in full detail was submitted before the court, and it didn't take long for a jury to convict Victus. Sadly, with no immediate family, Milissa was put into a nearby orphanage. We can only hope that she is adopted by a household who don't have spousal abuse abound within it's unit within the next three months.
"But how could my parents get killed the exact same way? Did Victus Horris do it?" Raiden asked.
"No Raiden. See, about three weeks before your parents were killed, Victus Horris was executed by Arceus itself." Jackson said.
"So, if that's the case, then how was Marina able to replicate the exact same murders on Raiden's parents?" Lightning asked.
"...That's a topic I'm not comfortable with discussing right now." Jackson said, and as he left the library, he dropped another picture, this was a kid's drawing that had been torn in two out of pure rage. This picture almost looked like a hopeful scenario.
In this picture, it was obvious that the Mawile locked up behind bars was Victus, the older female Mawile is representing Malana, and the younger female Mawile was representing Milissa.
However, a fourth figure was in this picture, and it was an Arcanine. However, the tear was right across the face of this arcanine, but it didn't take a genius to figure out who this was. "Wh-what happened that caused Milissa to do this to her own drawing?" Twilight asked.
Sunset wanted to answer but chose not to. After all, in her mind, it was far too early to draw to conclusions. And she's hoping that she's wrong.
Deca MLP Log #4
Subject: Rainbow Dash
Today, I was able to learn of a true example of loyalty. It seems that Rainbow Dash really draws to her element and takes that concept to her very core. Loyalty is just as much of a part of her as her wings are. You might think that this opinion is out of character for an AI like me to say, but trust me: I can only think of one other being whose loyalty would even come close to rivaling Rainbow Dash's Loyalty, and that's Rob Snowden himself. I can certainly see Rainbow Dash being a Justice Hero, if her loyalty to her friends didn't come first. Yet, I think that even if she won't be going around the Omniverse defeating power hungry villains, she's still an example of what a Justice Hero should be like.
