//------------------------------// // A Storm is Coming // Story: Raging Storm // by OmegaFanfiction //------------------------------// A Storm is Coming It was just one of those nothing days in Ponyville. Hardly any ponies were outside, with the exception of a few fillies running around. But apart from that, everything was quiet. But in Fluttershy's cottage, it was a little different. Rainbow Dash had been called over to help Fluttershy with the animals. They were running and flying and crawling all over the place! And even with Rainbow Dash around, it still took a good hour or so before they finally calmed down. Gasping for air, the two ponies collapsed onto the sofa. "Well, thank Celestia that's over!" Rainbow said. "I spent the last couple of minutes chasing after that bird! She's almost as fast as me!" Fluttershy chuckled a little. "Yeah. Thanks for helping me out, Dashie. I just don't know what happened! One minute, they were eating their food, the next minute they're running around everywhere!" "Yeah, what's up with that?" Rainbow sunk further into the sofa. "But it's over now. I guess I should head back." She yawned. "I need to get some sleep!" Fluttershy looked at the ground, sighing. "Oh... Um, alright then. You get some rest." Rainbow started walking towards the door, then looked at Fluttershy. "Look, how about I come back again later? Ya know, just to check if you're alright with the animals." Fluttershy smiled. "Sure, okay! I'll be waiting!" "Sweet! Well, I'll see you later!" Rainbow opened the door and zoomed out, flying towards her home in the sky. Fluttershy looked up out of the window to see her friend fly off. She smiled a little. Rainbow was a very good friend to her, and she would always be there if Fluttershy needed help with anything. They got along really well together. But as Fluttershy was about to turn around and carry on with her job of looking after her animal friends, something unusual caught her eye. She lifted her mane up so she could see it with both eyes. It was as clear as crystal. In the distance, just over the horizon, dark clouds were making their way towards them. And this is where the adventure begins.
