Chapter 1- A Lazy Day
Rainbow Dash was dozing on a drifting cloud. Celestia’s sun shone brightly over Ponyville. Since she had no work to do, she had read the latest edition of Daring-Do. Now she was pretty much bored. She would see if Pinkie Pie wanted to go pranking with her.
Rainbow climbed off her cloud and drifted in a lazy spiral toward the ground. She walked through the streets until she reached Sugarcube Corner. There were a few ponies inside the shop, but it wasn’t too busy.
“Pinkie Pie, are you here?” Rainbow called. She waited for a second, then turned to leave.
“Rainbow Dash!” called Pinkie from behind.
Rainbow turned back to the shop and saw Pinkie bouncing towards her. “Hey Pinkie! How’s it going?”
“Really awesomely spectacular! I found this really weird rock by the Everfree Forest! Wanna see it?” Before Rainbow could protest, Pinkie shoved a smooth white stone in her face.
“Hey! You ever hear of personal space?” Rainbow complained.
“Yeah! But, look look look! There’s little carvings in it! And it looks like your cutie mark!” Pinkie said.
“What?” Rainbow exclaimed. Looking closer, the stone was engraved with an exact replica of her cutie mark. “What does this mean?” she asked Pinkie Pie.
“I don’t know. You can have it if you want. I’m gonna go make some cupcakes!” said Pinkie, bouncing back to the kitchen.
“Have fun with that,” she said, exiting the bakery.
Rainbow glanced at the stone when she got outside. “Maybe I’ll visit Princess Twilight in Canterlot. She’ll know what it is,” She flicked her eyes from side to side, hoping nopony saw her talking to herself. Sighing, she took off towards her house. It was too late to travel to Canterlot today.
When she arrived at her house made of clouds, she set the stone under her pillow and wandered to her kitchen to scavenge food. After a hearty meal of daisy salad, hay fries, and cookies, she flopped onto the cloudy bed and fell asleep.
