//------------------------------// // The Appearance of Soarin' // Story: You're gonna go far, kid // by Navy Shadow //------------------------------// It was night in equestria when the still saddened Rainbow dash woke from her slumber, she looked out of her window, (a gap in the clouds) to see Luna's moon shining greatly in the summer sky, this brightened rainbow up a little bit and she got a little smile on her face. Then she went outside to train, at midnight. perfecting her new move, The Manticore Crusher. this trick was simple, (in her mind anyway) and all you had to do was grab a cloud from the sky, spinning around it for a few seconds before flying up and shooting down into the cloud, making it explode in all different directions, made different colours from the mares rainbow coloured tail. this usually stunned her invited viewers, which at this time of night happened to be nopony She sighed and heard faintly a small cheer from the ground "This better not be one of fluttershy's pathetic attempts to cheer me on" she sighed as she flew down to meet this night time wanderer. "hey there, Listen im sorta busy right now and in the middle of thinking about some stuff, so if you wouldnt mind" Rainbow looked up to this admirer and saw nothing but a navy blue jumpsuit, Goggles where the eyes should be and holes where the wings are and tje most awesome cutie mark ever, with a deep purple mane and tail, this could only mean one thing, she was face to face with Soarin' Of the Wonderbolts. "omigodomigodomigodomigodomigod your... Soarin', of the Wonderbolts" "haha i sure am rainbow dash AKA Best young flier in equestria" "omigodomigodomigodomigodomigodomigod. you know my name and my title, "yeah i've been looking out for you ever since the best young flier competition when you saved the WonderBolts lifes, but since your a daytime creature and i much prefer the dark its been hard to find you. Listen i've come for a reason and you have to listen closely, Rainbow dash leaned in as Soarin began to say a few words. "Rainbow Dash of Ponyville, Best young Flyer in equestria and Element of Loyalty you have been selected, as part of the WonderBolt special talent scouting campaign, to be inducted in the wonderbolt training facility deep in the mountains of equestria truly you are a force to be reckoned with, a force to yet be pushed down... you get my drift. You and your rainbow mane would make a great addition to the wonderbolts if you are able to pass certification, 3 long hard weeks of wonderbolt training: preperation, learning techniques, and even flying a select few shows with us as special guests, although you are not to be alone in this training facility. you are to be joined by 3 other ponies who have shows signs of wonderbolt awesomeness" Dash just stared agape at Soarin', dribbling a little from the corner of her mouth. "haha ok, ill leave you the decision until tomorrow night, then you have to make up your mind, wonderbolt training or no wonderbolt training" Dash flew back to her cloud house, mouth still agape, to sleep on it so she can tell her friends first thing in the morning
