The Wonderbolts Meet Star Scorcher

Chapter 3: First Training Session

The next day...

Star Scorcher had woken up. Today was the day he trained with The Wonderbolts for the first time. And for the first time in his life, he was literally pumped up. He went downstairs to get a bottle of whiskey from his cellar. It was Sunday and he needed his drink to get himself ready for awesomeness. Reaching the cellar, he opened the door and searched. Unfortunately, his Sunday whiskey was gone.

"What the fuck? Somepony's been into my stash!" he yelled.

"Oh, yeah. That was me." somepony behind him responded. He turned around and saw a white mare with a yellow mane and tail.

"Breezie?! How did'ya get into my house?!" Scorcher exclaimed, surprised to see one of the members of The Wonderbolts in his house.

"Your front door was unlocked. Just popped in to say hi, but you were sleeping. So I crashed at your place." she explained.

"What?! You knew that I was asleep?!" he yelled in shock. "What time did you get here?"

"Hmm..." she thought. "I think I came here at 3."

Scorcher's jaw dropped. What was she doing at 3 AM?

"Besides, I came here in case I needed to wake you up for your first day of training with us."

Scorcher groaned as he was closing his wine cellar door. "Whatever. Just don't surprise me like that."

Everything became quiet. Scorcher turned around to see Breezie giving him a death glare. Unfortunately, he is oblivious.

"What did you call me?" she let out behind her gnarling teeth.

"Other than Breezie, nothing else." he replied, shivers tingling down his spine. Breezie gave him a suspicious look.

"You sure about that?" Scorcher nodded.

She sighed as she flew out of the door. "Well, I'll wait for you outside."

Scorcher was left standing there. And he wondered to himself:

What was that all about?!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Star Scorcher and Breezie were flying to the Wonderbolts Training Field. Breezie had told him that the training was more intense than his cloud field. He gulped, but tried to stay confident in this course. As they arrived, he knew that she wasn't kidding. It was almost like his training field, but with more obstacles. There were even strange contraptions. Looking around, both of them saw the rest of The Wonderbolts trotting towards them.

"Mornin' sleepyhead!" Lightening Streak greeted, putting his hoof around Star Scorcher's back. Rapidfire noticed this and felt a bit agitated. Not at Scorcher, but Lightening's mannerism.

"Yo, what up, everypony?" Scorcher greeted back.

"Ready for your first time you're gonna train with us?" High Winds asked.

"Sure. Just bring whatever obstacle you have to me. Because I'm waiting for it." he replied, confidently.

"Mr. Tough Stallion, eh? Let's see if you're really that big, hot stuff." Fire Streak said, mocking Scorcher.

"Chill out, Fire. It's not like you could beat both of us." Wave Chill butted in, making Fire glare at him. They both traded death glares until the leader of the Wonderbolts broke them up.

"Settle down, everypony." Spitfire said. Wave Chill and Fire Streak looked away from each other.

"Now, today is Star Scorcher's first day..." she pointed at Scorcher, who smiled. "So, I want you all to be nice to him."

Everypony groaned. Scorcher mentally groaned. He felt like a little colt. I wonder if she does this to every new member, he thought.

"Now, we're gonna start off with some drills. I want everypony to give me 30 laps!" she announced, triggering a set of groans.

"Alright, but do you have a stereo around here?" Scorcher asked.

"Why?" Blaze asked.

"I practice with music. It's the same as dancing with music." he answered.

"I think we have one." Soarin' said.

"Great. Could you please bring it out for me?" Scorcher asked. Silver nodded and went in to take out a stereo. A few seconds later, he came back with a stereo.

"Alright, now to crank this thing." he said as he placed a disc in the disc tray.

"Alright, on my go, I want you to all to fly around the track. Get into your positions while I start your mark." They did so as she took out a stopwatch.

"On your marks..." they set themselves up.

"...get set..." they raised their legs.

"...GO!"

And The Wonderbolts are off. Things are pretty fast as they flew around the cloud track. Each pony was catching on to each other. Breezie was at the same speed as Blaze. She winked at Blaze, who blushed slightly. Wave Chill and Fire Streak were next to each other. A spark of electricity had ignite as they both looked at each other menacingly. Lightening Streak had waved at Rapidfire, who was a little behind him. Almost at the same speed, but a little behind. High Winds and Soarin' looked at each other and smiled. This was going to be friendly competition for the both of them. Star Scorcher had already begun twisting and turning in the cloud track. This was because he needed to avoid the other flyers.

"Hey!" Fire Streak yelled, as Scorcher turning around him broke Fire and Wave's trance. They both realized that the new stallion was overtaking them. However, this was only his normal speed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

As many laps have been passed, each member was getting fatigued a bit. However, this didn't mean they gave up. They still were going, to say the least. On their 30th lap, the flyers had looked ahead at the finish line. At first they were speeding up ahead just to try and get it over with. Wave Chill and Fire Streak were colliding with each other, trying to outfly one another. Lightening Streak and Rapidfire were holding hooves with each other, embracing each other by locking eyes. They were going to finish practice together. Just as everypony reached the line, it was both Star Scorcher and Silver Lining that went through first.

(Song Ends)

Everypony was tired out as Spitfire walked towards them.

"Not bad, you all. 3 minutes in 30 laps." she said. "Alright, everypony! That's it for today! We've got training on Wednesday!"

Everypony sighed in relief. Scorcher had walked up to Silver.

"Hey, I just wanted to tell you that you're pretty awesome at that lap practice." he said as he put his hoof out to see if Silver would shake it. After a long wait, he shook Scorcher's hoof.

"Thank you." was all he said before leaving. Now that Scorcher had felt happy that he got to do a minor training session with The Wonderbolts, there's one thing to do.

"PARTY AT MY HOUSE!!!"
