Stupid stupid stupid” muttered Rainbow dash” why can’t I tell her mean I'm the fastest Pegasus in Equestrian” she slammed her back hooves into a tree” damn it I charged into a dragon cave AND” continued the rainbow mare” bucked the dragon right in the face I didn't show any fear then so why am I so scared to tell Applejack that I-I-I” her face fell” I cant even say the words I’m hopeless” rainbow spread her wings and went to take off.
“STOP RIGHT THERE YOU DIRTY FILLYFOOLER”
Rainbow stopped her eyes narrowed at the Pegasus behind her it was Lightning dust” what. Did. You. Call. Me.
“I called you a fillyfooler you got a problem with that” Lightning dust smirked.
I'm going to whup that smile off your fa-“rainbow was caught off guard when an air blast hit her square in the muzzle it was so strong that it flipped her backwards” oof”
“When I’m through with you your gonna wish that you were never born” Lightning dust charged up another more powerful air blast one that was meant to break bones she aimed the spheres at Rainbows wings.
Rainbow couldn't move she saw what Lightning intended to do she was going to ground her permanently she saw the spheres of air launch she closed her eyes and waited for the pain....nothing happened she carefully opened her eyes and saw bubbles..” huh is that you Derpy w-what are you doing move or-or..” rainbow saw Midnight Blaze standing in front of Derpy blood coming from his sides right where his wings would be if he were a Pegasus but he was a unicorn which meant his ribs were-.
“Fine” said Derpy” his ribs are fine rainbow he deflected the blasts just as they pierced his skin Lightning wont trouble you anymore but she won’t fly again either now come with me you took a nasty blow to the face we will get you cleaned up” she said rather quickly looked at the bleeding stallion” wont we Mi-.
Ok Derpy ok just don’t call me that what about her” he looked at Lightning dust who was in agony as every bone in both her wings were completely shattered suddenly a cruel expression hardened on his face he charged his horn it was shining with a purple glow.
“H-hey shouldn't your magic be red Blaze” asked rainbow.
“NOO!!! Blaze don’t just teleport her to the hospital ill sort it out later please just..Just look after Rainbow for me.
“Is this a favor “Blaze asked smirking
“How bout we call it you making friends” Derpy replied without expression.
Rainbow was vaguely aware of warmth on her flank she looked up and around she was lying on pillows in front of a fire something nudged her mane she looked and saw midnight Blaze stretching in his sleep he looked content, rainbow was about to freak out when she realised there was a wall of pillows in between them she smiled aware that Blaze must have built the wall she knew Blaze was decent and a friend she could see why Fluttershy trusted him.
Blaze woke up and surprisingly wasn't hurt bleeding or tied up” hmm Rainbow must have left after she woke with me next to her” he smiled thinking of her reaction” well i guess were friends then”.
“Yeah i guess we are” she said smiling satisfied at the shocked look he gave her” hey i was just wondering where is De-i mean Ditzy she doesn't usually go out on her own unless it’s for work”
“Hm oh you mean Derpy? Questioned Blaze
Uh yeah hey how come you’re allowed to call her that usually it upsets her?
She hasn't said anything to me about minding as long as I'm not teasing her now” he put on a serious face” i have a question for you rainbow why does everypony treat her like she is..Well for lack of a better word retarded i know she can be a little slow sometimes and she is very accident prone and well there’s her eyes but she is one of the most capable Pegasus i know and the way she can wield her magic it’s incredible.
“What do you mean she can’t even conjure an air blast what’s the big idea Blaze if it wasn't for you she would be grounded” she stopped Blaze looked at the ground” tell me what really happened Blaze”
It’s simple i took the air blasts broke two ribs and Derpy blasted that mare back shattering her wings simple now tell me" here Blaze smiled" who is the lucky stallion.
There was too much to comprehend” wait how did you know about that“.
“Well in your sleep you kept muttering i love you over and over again...umm do you want to talk about it i mean I'm new to all this stuff but I'm sure i can help because we..We are friends and they help and-and...Blaze trailed off.
You ramble when you’re nervous” rainbow laughed” but yeah ok I’ll tell you but only cause you saved me ok i-i” she took a deep breath” i like- no i love applejack” she shuffled and she started blushing.
Blaze just nodded “so you’re a fillyfooler no don’t get mad it’s just a word that means you find mares attractive seriously i think that’s cool have you told her yet.
N-no i haven’t i cant what if she rejects me or worse she hates me or stops being my friend or-or” she stopped tears in her eyes she looked at Blaze who looked concerned” s-sorry.
Blaze was worried his skin crawled and he couldn't really ignore it “uh right just tell her alright trust me you will regret it if you don’t and I'm sure she won’t hate you ok now I’m really sorry about this tell Applejack i sent you tell her you love her or whatever uh bye” and with that he teleported her into Applejack's bedroom.
Rainbow was horrified she was in bed with Apple jack Blaze had teleported her to Applejack who was in bed and now she was under the covers with her and it felt right rainbow made to get up but Applejack reached around rainbows neck and snuggled into her mane at this rainbow decided to sleep’ tomorrow is future Rainbow Dashes problem and so she slept with the mare she loved.
