"OK." I jumped down out of the carriage and landed on the floor with a soft pat. I looked around and was filled with excitement. I am at the castle! I felt a nudge as Celestia nudged me toward the castle door. "I have somepony you should meet." I hugged close to the princess. She makes me feel safe.
We began walking; well I had to walk really fast to keep up. We walked through a set of doors and THE WONDERBOLTS!

"Thats so cool!" Sweetie Belle was bouncing up and down on the ground. I smiled and patted her head with a hoof. "what happened next?" she asked crawling up into my seat next to me. I thought deeply for a moment then I looked at Twilight who had been taking notes. "Well, I guess I passed out from excitement, because I remember waking up in a bed."
******
"Tread?" I hear several voices. Then I felt a nudge. "Come on Tread." I opened my eyes to see a nurse, the Princess, Spitfire, Soarin, and the other wonderbolts! "Oh thank goodness you woke up kid." Spitfire walked over. "We were worried."
I wiggled out from under the blankets and sat on top of the bed. I looked at the wonderbolts and scooted closer to Spitfire. "Why are you here?" I asked. I was kind of scared. I don’t like being from my parents that much. "Well. Princess Celestia wanted us to see if you can walk on clouds all the time." Spitfire said obviously trying to phrase 'scientists want to study you' differently.
Skip several minutes and I was on a cloud tackling Soarin. "Whoa!" Soarin was rolling and laughing with me on a fairly large cloud. "You’re a cool little guy." He said looking over at me. He raised a hoof and I bumped mine on his. A sudden Idea surged into my mind "Watch this!" I ran to a cloud corner and broke the corner off.
"Wha-" I heard some voices below me. I looked over the edge and saw Spitfire gaping. I watched as she told a guard to get Celestia. I looked at Soarin, he was gaping too. "Soarin did I do something wrong?" He shook his head. "No. Y-your SO AWSOME!" He was jumping on the larger part of the cloud.
"Spitfire. You called for me?" I looked down below me. Princess Celestia had walked out of the castle. I looked at my cloud. I wonder if I can move it. I leaned forward and the cloud began moving very slowly. "Yes, Princess. Tread broke off part of the clo-" she looked up to point. I was moving! I can fly!
"Oh my." Celestia was suprised. I heard somepony flapping and I turned my head to see Celestia flying next to me. "You are one special pony Tread."
********
I turned and saw Rainbow Dash. She was shocked. "You can control clouds." I looked back to see Twilight. She was levitating her quill. I shrugged and nodded. "you could call in that." I stood up and stretched. “I can walk on clouds, break parts off, and fly around using them. Anything other than that I cannot do."
She nodded and scribbled that down. “That was really the most of my childhood." I said placing my saddle bag on my back. “The rest of it was probably like anypony elses." I patted Sweetie Belles head. "Except for me traveling to Cloudsdale. I would have to jump 10 years to when I join the wa-" I stopped.
Everypony was looking at me. "Tread, I thought you were seventeen." Twilight was packing up but was looking at me. "Sorry. Thats right. I wasnt counting right." I laughed and was joined by several other ponies. "TWELVE years." The rest smiled. "Lets get you home Sweetie Belle." I said as I walked out of the cafe' after paying.
"Thank you for taking Sweetie bell out, Tread. Your order is done also." Rarity ushered Twilight and me into the work room. The two of us exchanged looks as Rarity ran into the back to pick up my order. "Here we go." Rarity was levitating a bag in front of her as she trotted through the doorway.
She pushed me to get up. "Why do I have to-" She undid my uniform with her magic and lifted a pair of boots out of the bag. I lifted each hoof and she placed then on them. I was amazed at how Rarity can make something so simple so amazing.
After trying on the clothes somewhat against my will. Twilight and I departed from the Carousel Boutique. Celestia's sun was going down. When our fairly silent walk I escorted Twilight to her library. "Tread..." I looked up and saw her face had softened. "Yes?" I smiled and raised my eyebrows. "Do you... want to stay here for the night?"
I looked at her. Even in the evening light I saw her blushing. Don't mess this one up Tread. Remember the girl on the train to deployment? I smiled "I wouldn't want to intrude." Her eyes met mine and she walked closer. "I insist." Her eyes meant it. I gave in and followed her into the library, unsure of the future.
And NOTHING SEXUAL HAPPENED. Had to make that clear.
