Spitfire Writer Comment: “This chapter will show how Scott becomes the leader of the Wonderbolts way before the chapter ‘Preparing for the best night ever Part 1’.” It was morning at the Palace in Canterlot and Princess Celestia was showing Scott around the place and went every room, (‘literally…EVERY.ROOM. Including the kitchen sink.’) Now, they are on their way to the Palace Barracks to meet the captain of the guard, Shining Armour. They found him in the training grounds practicing against another guard in swordplay and Shining noticed the two came through from the door and they said their hellos, Shining ended the training with the guard and the guard went off. “Good morning Your Majesty and who is this with you?” said Shining. “This is Scott, the Human that saved your Sister in Ponyville from the monster and my Sister from nightmare’s grasp.” said Celestia. “Ah… Nice to finally meet Ponyville’s Saviour, the news of him has already spread around through Equestria of his deed, but there was no picture of him on the paper so I didn’t know who he looked like, all it says that the saviour was wearing black armour, has a sword on the back and he’s also strong. Also it says that he was so fast nopony could take a picture of him.” said Shining. “Nice to meet you too Shining, I’ve heard a lot about of you from Twilight and I’ve noticed your swordplay was a little off balance. First you swing it too heavily, then you swing it too lightly.” said Scott. (HA star wars reference) “How would you know about that kind of knowledge of swordplay, I don’t see you with a sword and you don’t look like the fighting t-” Shining stopped what he was saying when a blade materialises from Scott’s hand pointing in-between Shining eyes. Shining looked at Scott’s face which he felt fear and his legs are shaking. “-ype” “Now that was hurtful for what you said, why not have a go against me to see for yourself!” said Scott calmly in a deep tone with eyes of rage. Celestia was shocked for what is happening here, for what Shining Armour said was kind of insulting, but when she was about to say something somepony intervened the conversation by bursting through the door. The three looked at the pony at the door; the pony was a mare with a yellow coat in a light blue, yellow and white latex flight suit with an orange and yellow mane and tail. “HEY YOU!” she yelled to Scott with an angry face “There is no way you defeated a monster in 3 seconds, nopony has that speed, that’s impossible.” “I don’t know what you’re talking about and who are you?” asked Scott looking confused at the pony, while still having the blade on Shining. “I’m Spitfire, Captain of the Wonderbolts and the fastest pony in Equestria.” she said proudly then Scott laughed. “The way you act just now, reminds me of Rainbow Dash saying the same thing, but she an Element of Harmony so she’s a higher level than you as some team leader.” said Scott next their heads pushing each other as sparks cross between both eyes then the princess broke her sense of patience. “THAT’S ENOUGH!” yelled Celestia while the rest looked at her in shock. “I don’t want this kind of fighting in the Palace and I’ve got an idea for the both of you, Spitfire and Scott would you like to hear my proposal.” Spitfire and Scott look to each other then both turned to Celestia and nodded. “Here is the idea, you two are going to race each other to the Equestria border and back, whoever is at the castle gates first will get one thing from me, Name your desire and it yours, so do we have a deal.” said Celestia. “If I win, I want you to be my servant and do errands for my team for 2 months.” said Spitfire with a smile. “Well if I win, I’ll take your place as leader of the Wonderbolts.” said Scott while looking to Celestia in a serious tone, Spitfire and Shining had their mouth open. “You can’t do that.” yelled Spitfire. “That’s my job and you can’t even fly.” “How’s this.” Scott said while he jumped into the air and transformed into Karas but then changed again in to some kind of machine in the air with metal wings. The rest were surprised that he can do that and wondering what it is. “What is that thing, a metal bird?” asked Shining with curiosity wide eyes as the flyer and the princess. “This is my Jet Mode and us Karas have two Modes that can turn into besides the armour, this mode let’s me fly and I’m even faster in this form.” said Scott while the others had their mouths opened that he can speak in that form of a metal bird then they snapped out of it and get on with the race. “Are you ready.” said Celestia. “Get set…Go.” And they are off like bullets. The race took for some time and the two racers are almost at the Castle Gates. Celestia and Shining Armour have a camera ready for this is going to be a photo finish (not the pony photo finish, I mean the photo finish at the end of the race). Both Scott and Spitfire are coming so fast they went past the Gates while the camera flashed. Scott transformed back and lying down on his back on the ground catching his breath as Spitfire did the same. Celestia and Shining Armour came to the racers with the photo of who won and announced. “It’s decided” said Celestia. “The winner for this race by a few inches is…” she paused in shock of the result. “Scott” she finished. Spitfire was in deep disappointment that she lost and not the leader anymore. She dropped her badge and left but Scott stopped her from leaving. Spitfire wanted to leave but stopped from what she head was mumbling. “What did you just say.” said Spitfire as she turns her head to Scott as he walks up to her with her badge. “I said with this new job and the job I already have with Celestia, I’m in a bit of a predicament and I would like to hire you as my second in command while I’m doing work for Celestia.” said Scott while giving Spitfire her badge that she dropped. “That is if you want it, and the offer will be open to you even if you say no.” Spitfire started to cry and jump on to Scott and hugged his neck with her forelegs while Scott smiled and returned the hug. “Thank you and I’m sorry for what I said to you.” said Spitfire while crying. “Everyone deserves a second chance, right.” said Scott while the others gave a nod. They let go of the hug and went with Shining and Celestia to the Dining Hall for lunch. After lunch Scott went to his room for to get some sleep but sees Spitfire waiting for him at his door. Scott asked ‘what’s wrong’ and she went to his face and kissed him on the cheek and flew off leaving a colour trail as her mane colours, leaving Scott a puzzled look along with his face blushed. He shook his head and went in his room and went to bed, while Spitfire is in her quarters blushing and can’t stop thinking of Scott and the abilities he possess, nopony was fast as her and then considered him to be her one companion to be rivalled with and vowed to be faster than him and maybe something else.
