//------------------------------// // You're leaving? // Story: You're gonna go far, kid // by Navy Shadow //------------------------------// Rainbow Dash looked down and saw her wonderbolt costume, similar to the others but a lighter blue, to match her mane. her goggles acted as eye protection from the terrible winds a flier experienced at high speeds. she turned to her left and saw 2 wonderbolts flying in formation, same on her right. they were in V formation and Rainbow Dash was the leader, with the multicoloured streak coming from her tail,her dreams had come true! Rainbow Dash then awoke to her alarm clock, she groaned as she looked at the time: 11:15 This was her version of "first thing in the morning." This made rainbow dash think 'urghh at wonderbolts training i probably have to be up at 6AM' She groaned herself out of bed, brushed her mane and flew out to see her friends. She had a plan, slowest first so she could set a meeting point and everyone can be there so rainbow doesn't have to wait So naturally, twilights first, she dashed over and nearly bashed the door down with her knocks. "Twiiilightttt!" Twilight opened the door, "Hey there Rainbow, what's up?" "My training field, 20 minutes!" as she said that, she sped off like a bullet... "Weird, but oh well, i will be there" Twilight remarked. She proceeded to do this at Fluttershy's, Rarity's, Pinkie Pie's then Applejack's. at Applejack's she was tired so she was out of breath when the door opened. "Ahh think you better come in for a drink sweetie" "NO TIME" Rainbow screeched as she told Applejack to follow her "Wher Exactly ar' we goin rainbow darlin'?" "My training field, I have something I need to share with you all" "errrr, OK then" they were silent for the rest of the trip When they got there everypony was waiting for Applejack and rainbow "What took you guys so long" "we've been waiting 10 minutes sat on this disgustingly dirty ground", rarity said, she seemed to be cowering away from bits of dirt, Rainbow smiled at that. "Sorry i was out of breath when i got to AJ's" Pinkie pie then popped up in dashes vision. "Is this a party, I forgot my party supplies. ohh I hope this isn't a party now, its not a party is it dash? what do you have to tell us!" Rainbow dash shoved a hoof into Pinkies mouth "Please be quiet" Pinkie nodded her head in understanding. When they all sat down, AJ spoke "So tell us dash, what's this big thing you wanted to tell us about, you seem to be smiling a lot, which is unlike you" It was true, rainbow dash could not speak because of the massive smile overtaking her face. "Spell it in clouds for us" Pinkie pie shouted happily she hated to say it but that was the best idea ever and it was from pinkie pie, so she took off to write her message in the clouds 5 minutes later she was finished. her viewers were sat watching, speaking every letter out as it was made, now that theyve seen it they were all jumping around in glee, the message read, "I GOT ACCEPTED INTO WONDERBOLT TRAINING" When she landed she could speak again, but only a few words before she had to stop to smile more Twilight spoke up "but rainbow... doesn't that mean your leaving us" Everypony got saddened by this "Yeah I guess" rainbow dash sighed "But its only for 3 weeks then they go through a review course for like 2 months before picking their new wonderbolt, so I have time to say goodbye and I can still come back if you need me as a element. and I will ALWAYS visit you, no matter what" "Well, you better get packing for wonderbolt training then dearie" Rarity said. "Oh you simply must use my new saddlebag design its absolutely stunning and it will fit perfectly on you!" Later on Pinkie suggested a picnic, so they had a picnic till around 10PM, when everypony was getting tired, all except for rainbow dash who was waiting for Soarin' to come and talk to her, and more importantly, take her answer. she saw a purple and navy blur dash through the sky. when her friends had gone rainbow dash sped towards the purple blur, which was getting clearer now, and started to shout it down As the purple Pegasus landed Rainbow dash was speeding up to meet the stallion. The Wonderbolt dodged in time then grabbed the Rainbow pony's tail and dragged her back. "So what's your answer Rainbow" the stallion said as he stood over her "YES YES YES A MILLION TIMES YES" rainbow practically screamed in his ear "Awesome. training starts next week, 10AM at this location" he said as he pulled a map out of his saddlebags and passed it to rainbow, but id start learning some tricks now if you want to impress us more" As he was saying those last words he took off.
