Rain was pouring from them, a thunderclap being heard every now and again, adding to the gloom present with such clouds. The usually lively streets where abandoned – everypony huddled inside, away from the rain and the wind, foals cowering at each thunderclap. Near the edge of town stood the Golden Oak library, casting a jagged shadow with each flash of lightning, the tree still mostly barren after the long winter. Only one of many windows was illuminated, higher up in the tree, probably near the bedroom. All of this was normal. However, the many cries that echoed from within the building were not. “AaaAAhahaha, stop it!” was shouted by a mare with a high pitched, slightly raspy voice. There came another scream from the tormented pony inside, cutting through the air. Inside the room, lavender hooves were assaulting celeste blue wings, prodding, stroking and poking them relentlessly. A feather was being levitated as well, doing the same thing under a nose of the same colour as the wings. This all combined caused the owner of the wings - a light cerulean pegasus by the name of Rainbow Dash - to giggle uncontrollably. “Ehehehe, Twi, serious-Aha!-, stop it!” the pegasus brought out in between giggles with some trouble, tears of laughter already formed in her eyes. When the unicorn tickling her didn’t stop, she added “Please my lady, have mercy!”
