It was twelve o' clock and it was time to go and teach a lesson to Soarin'. A while back that idiot said that he could fly faster than her! So to prove it, they decided to have a race, and the race was today. Rainbow walked over to her door and opened it. "Bwahh!" she said in surprise. Soarin' was standing right there. "Um, how long have you been there exactly?" Rainbow asked. "Um...like fifteen minutes. Not my fault you’re a slow poke," He snickered. "Oh, It's on," Rainbow suddenly flew up into the clear blue sky. "If you’re so fast you wouldn't mind racing here would you?" "Uh, buh," he stuttered. "Of course I wouldn't mind!" he said, zooming up to her, "On your mark, get set-" "Go!" Soarin' yelled, dashing away. "Oh no, you don't!" It was only one lap around her house and she won by a long shot. A few seconds later she could hear the steady beat of Soarin's wings. "Whoa! You’re really fast! How are you not a Wonderbolt yet?" he asked. "I dunno. You’re a Wonderbolt and I fly waaaaaaay better than you,” Rainbow Dash replied smugly. "You do not fly waaaaaaaaay better than me!" Soarin' replied, offended. "Wanna prove that?" she said, flapping her wings eagerly. "No, no thank you."
