//------------------------------// // Chapter 9: Premier War Rainbow // Story: Fallout Equestria: Moon`s Malestrom // by EuphorianPony3 //------------------------------// (Rainbow Dash Flashback) After packing the necessary equipment needed (and Pinkie Pie`s unnecessary tears and hugs) Me and Full Moon then set off to Wonder bolt Academy, The building was massive in size outside and inside and the cloud race tracks were more better and worked on than the normal clouds in Ponyville… Much more challenging. We landed on the clouds and I looked at Full Moon… he had a plastic rose it must have reminded him of Vinyl Scratch whenever he looked at it I once again sighed in depression I wish he wasn`t in love. I`m thinking of turning back but he insisted of staying here “Well we`re here now Rainbow might as well get it over with”. I knew the first day I met Full Moon he would be a really good friend, Me and him having cloud races whenever we could and me ramming into him… Good memories but anyway I have to continue on and pursue my dream to become a Wonder bolt. We approached the registering table and Spitfire the main leader of the Wonder bolts had shades and a trainer outfit on I just wonder what i'ts like with her as a teacher, But the bells started ringing and the first lesson began just doing 20 laps around this cloud circuit before we took off I noticed Full Moon attach the rose to his outfit I`m expecting a challenge from him. The lights then counted to green and we took off as soon as the green light blinked Full Moon then took off before any of us and as soon as I was halfway through the first lap he already finished the 2nd This was a right challenge i`ve never seen him fly this fast… As soon as the race finished well for Full Moon finished Spitfire had her mouth drop at the time he finished “Wow you did faster than Soarin! Wow just incredible” She then noticed the rose hanging out of his outfit “Wait what`s this are you in love?” Full Moon then replied without any hesitation at all “Yes mam… With the lovely Vinyl Scratch…” Spitfire than admired how fast he was and still standing on all fours “Well i`m not interested but anyway continue on and keep up the good work!” Me and the rest of the Pegasus`s finished the race and Full Moon was there waiting there for me “Hey Rainbow! What took you so long?” I then chuckled and replied “Well I don`t know really to be honest i-“ Spitfire then cut us up from our conversation “Alright seems like you two are keeping in line with each other Full Moon, you are the Lead pony and Rainbow Dash the Wing pony now MOVE!” with that I felt disappointment but Full Moon deserved the credit, after his incredible flying I should ask him how he does this “Hey Full Moon, since you`re Lead pony i`m wondering if you could give me a couple of lessons on your skills” Full Moon then shrugged “No I just simply held on the rose and just flew… I don`t really know how fast I went to be honest”. Yet again another sigh flung out of my mouth and Full Moon then took notice “You ok? You seem disappointed” I then had no choice but to tell the truth “I was pretty excited for you to teach me but if it was Vinyl who pushed you like that, then i`ts just like that ain`t it” I struggled to come up with words Full Moon ignored it and said “Well…fair enough feel like going to the Cafeteria and grabbing something?” I then accepted and on we went. It was getting very hard to cope with things… i`m starting to think that coming here with Full Moon was a big mistake but just being near Full Moon is telling me not to give up… even though he`s giving me a hard time but the thing is i`ve grown affections to him… ever since I met him and all the things we`ve been through i`m starting to develop a crush for Full Moon that`s it tonight when we sleep i`m going to tell him how I feel my heart is starting to pump extremely slow I need to breathe i`m gonna go for a little fly round the course. The next task assigned by Spitfire was a obstacle course with some hazards, not a problem for me and Full Moon (laughs) my coltfreind… at the starting line adrenaline started to pump into my veins and the love I had for him was increasing by the second, as soon as the whistle went off me and Full Moon was dashing at the exact same time and next to each other we then sighted these air vents which was going through increasing speeds by the minute and were moving up and down we then used our bodies to lean over the vents and avoid them leaving the other ponies to deal with them. Other than a couple of other clouds me and Full Moon captured the flags required to complete the course and dragged them to the finishing line. Spitfire impressed with us decided to let us rest in the cafe I then took that opportunity… to express my feelings, At the Cafeteria no pony was around other than us which was perfect it was nighttime as well and I then held my heart took a deep breath “Full Moon” he then raised his head to look at me “Hello Rainbow something you wanted?” I then said “Yeah there`s something I have to say to you” he then nodded his head and dropped the piece of paper he was writing “Yeah what`s that” I took another deep breath my heartbeat increased dramatically and then began to sing for once in my entire life. It’s complicated, it always is that’s just the way it goes Feels like I've waited so long for this I wonder if it shows? Head under water now I can`t breathe it never felt so good. Cause I can feel it coming over me I wouldn't stop it if I could When love takes over, (yeah-ah-eah) You know you can’t deny When love takes over, (yeah-ah-eah) Cause something’s here tonight Give me a reason, i gotta know Do you feel it too? Can’t you see me here on overload And this time I blame you Mm mm, Looking out for you to hold my hoof It feels like I could fall Now love me right, like I know you can We could lose it all When love takes over (yeah-ah-eah) You know you can’t deny When love takes over (yeah-ah-eah) ‘Cause something’s here tonight Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, And i’ll be loving you all the time, it’s true Cause i’ll wanna make it right, with you When love takes over Over, Over, Over, Over, When love takes over (yeah-ah-eah) You know you can’t deny When love takes over (yeah-ah-eah) ‘Cause something’s here tonight Full Moon than looked at me with complete shock then pondered in his head and than said “Rainbow Dash i…” I then started to jump up and down like a filly in her pre year “Yeah?” he began to speak “Rainbow Dash… I- I love you… I wish I could be with you really, i`ts just that…” My heart than began to stop beating and invisible tears then arose out of my eyes Full Moon was confused and dropped the note he was writing “My heart belongs to Vinyl Scratch… i`m so sorry” I had no reason to not just run away I just stopped flying completely and fell on the wooden flooring with a thud and the tears began to become visible as it became like moist puddles Full Moon than jumped off his chair and immediately bended over and pick my face up and give me a hug but the tears just kept on flowing through my eyes “Don`t worry!” I shouted to push his arms away from me “Just leave me alone I loved you ok? Ever since we met, I knew you did not love Twilight… I wanted to show you what true love is…” Full Moon then had a small tear drip down his eye “I`m SO SORRY OK! WHY DON`T YOU TURN BACK TIME AND STOP ME AND VINYL BEING TOGETHER! CAN YOU LIVE WITH THAT ON YOUR CONCISENESS? HUH!” Full Moon`s constant shouting pounded my eardrums and I cried even harder I felt mortified my feelings got the best of me and I held my hooves toward my face and attempt to curl into a ball, Full Moon began to notice the damage he was doing and dropped dead on the floor, I quickly got up and examined him there were tears still dropping from the eyes and his tears was meeting mine his heart was no longer pounding I then noticed a sudden change... His coat began to turn black starting from his flank to his whole body his wings began to grow bigger and his tail`s length increased his eyes than opened but it was the size of a monster`s his eye was light blue instead of the dark grey the tears froze and dropped to the floor and fell like icicles “Oh no… What have I done?” he than rose up from laying lifeless and he started to go into a rampage and direct himself to the nearest chairs and smashing them into pieces the police heard this noise and began to investigate the building surrounding the structure I then quickly dashed away from his hooves dodged the flying chairs and exited the building to inform the police with tears flowing harder “Don`t worry every pony I- I done this! I made him into this” The police than took no notice and one of the officers told me “Get out of the way madam or do we have to take you too?” I then retaliated “Do you have permission to arrest and attack the Prince of the Night? Princess Luna`s son?” The police than stopped to a halt on marching to the structure and the officer replied “Guess not… do you have any plans to stop this madam?” I then quickly replied “Yes I do i`m his friend I can calm him down… somehow…” I than quickly opened and closed the doors and entered the Cafeteria to calm Full Moon down but he stopped his rampage and calmed himself as soon as he noticed me enter, he collapsed to the floor laying lifeless as before I quickly dashed to him “Full Moon… I don`t know if you can hear me but…” Tears began to fly out faster “I`m so sorry I made you like this… you can be with Vinyl Scratch if you want to… I don`t care, if she makes you happy then I have no reason to take you do i?” His coat then turned to normal and it was clear blue “I had no reason to do that!” I then laid on his side hoping his fur would calm me down my face planted on his side next to his neck was calming me the tears was still coming out but slower “I- I just wanted to let you know I loved you since we met but you met Vinyl way before me” I then noticed the plastic rose hanging on the chandelier I dashed upwards to grab it and then sided it into his suit, he reverted back to normal his wings and tail began to shrink to normal size and he then arose back up “Hello Rainbow Dash i-I” I cut him from talking than said “Don`t worry I completely understand” he started to have a smile appear “Thank you Rainbow Dash… for everything” He then hugged me and so did I “I`m just letting you know if I ever find you again in 25 years… and i`m alone i`ll marry you… I promise I love you so much…if I ever find you… I love you…”
