Grounded

I'm a rebel.
I don't follow rules. But, heck, Rainbow Dash doesn't need to follow rules anyway. She's her own mare. I guess that's what I should of told my parents after I got caught sneaking into the Wonderbolt Derby without a ticket and kicked out of the stadium. Hey, if it wasn't for that body guard guarding the stadium, I wouldn't be grounded right now. Guess who's on my not so good snuggle list?
Yep, you heard me, Rainbow Dash is grounded. I didn't do anything! I just ran out the window, snuck into a derby, and got busted.
How could I be in trouble for that? That isn't crime or against the pony law or whatever. Why was I punished?
Rainbow Danger Dash isn't suppost to be grounded! I know! I could teach myself how to fly in one day, fly out the window without falling on my face, and fly out of Cloudsdale safely.
Without falling on my face.
Wait, wouldn't that get my in more trouble? I hate plans! Oh crap, now I just broke a vase. Um.. I can fix it.. I can fix it.. Just broke it again.. hold on.. hold on.. there! Good as new! I don't think Mom would notice a broken lamp with stickers, tape, and glue. You can barely even tell.. and even if she did notice, I would just blame it on our pet. If we had a pet.. Anyway my Mom bought me that lamp a few years ago for five bits and I never use it. I don't know how bits work anyway. I'm just a filly.
So.. where was I? Oh, yeah! Grounding.. I hate being grounded! Even more than spiders. I saw a spider and freaked out...
A lot.
I was in the kitchen, Mom was making one of those tiny mac and cheese packs that you buy in stores for little fillies and their tiny stomach and the package is like.. small. Yea, those things. Anyway, I was playing with my Wonderbolt toys, like always, their action figures. That's a much cooler type of toy. I don't play with pretty dolls or stuffed animals.. at least not when people are around.. or it's my awesome moment.. The thing is they are just for decoration.
So suddenly, a spider crawls up on Lightning Wing and it scared me to the point where I jumped up way up high up on a counter and my mom almost calling the police. It was funny. I loved that day. And hate spiders..

I'd rather have that spider than to be grounded. I have been in this room for who knows how long. I've been writing on the wall to see how many days had passed. It's so cold in here.. I better build a fire.. Okay... how do you do this? Is it rub two sticks together or rub your hooves together? Oh whatever, I didn't go to Cloudsdale Elementary yet so what does it matter? I better rub my hooves together.. Before I freeze to death.
Day One: It's only been an hour and I'm scared. I don't think I'll ever get out of here..
Ever.
This place is like a prison. The most terrible prison there is.. I don't think I'll make it through.. I'll be remembered as somepony that was awesome. Tell the Wonderbolts.. I like their team a lot.. and I wanted to join them.. tell them I was awesome and would of totally gotten in.. You know what... I'll survive. I am not giving up this early. I'm too awesome.
Wait.. did Mom say that I wasn't allowed to leave the house..? Crap.

If I would of known, like some kind of smart pony or egghead, whatever. But no.. I had to be stupid. I knew I should of gone to Cloudsdale Elementary sooner before this..
So.. I guess Mom wouldn't of got mad if I got out of my room anyway because I had to eat dinner and all that.. So.. It really doesn't make a difference.. Anyway, I sprinted outside and ran nothing of like my little filly hooves used to go. I was faster. That's what I like about being awesome.
I raced past my Dad, making drop his newspaper and look at me funny. These are the best times to make my parents laugh. I was still a filly, so I can still do those stuff like the other fillies. And if not, I will be sad.
I was then stopped by my Mom, who I trotted on her hooves by accident. She smiled and giggled a little bit.
Was I missing something?
She held a ticket in her hoof. I was confused. Just like I said, I'm just a filly. I'm not smart or anything. Do I look like an egghead?
No. I don't.

"Dashie, your un-grounded."

Yes! I have no idea what so ever about what I learned about being grounded but I know I am done being un-grounded. I am so happy! Wait, what was I grounded for again? Oh it doesn't matter. It wasn't like I was a mind reader.. Anyway, I was still happy for what ever I did...

"Yep." Dad said smiling, walking over to me and handing me a skateboard. "You earned it."

Wow! I'm un-grounded and I got a skateboard.. This is the best day ever!

"Yes. And I don't want to see you grounded again. Your too awesome of a filly."

Yes! I knew I was awesome... like all my life.. That's cool.. she called me awesome. Now I got filly swag.

"Hey. Do you smell something burning?"

Oh no! I forgot to put the fire out! I'm so dead.. Well, it was fun being un-grounded for five seconds.. but I think'll be back.
A lot..
