I was going to Twilight's house. The new Daring Do book had come out.  When I finally got there, Twilight reminded me that  I owed her some bits from the last time we went to sugarcube corner. To my dismay, I ran into Pinkie Pie. We are friends its just that she seems extra wierd lately. She keeps talking about bronies, whatever they are. Last week she told me to check out anthropology. I later found out that its a study of humans. That must mean Lyra sung it. That was wierd since she doesn't sing. Sure she can play a lyre like its no ones business but shes a terrible singer. "Hey Rainbow Dash!" It was Pinkie. I knew that I couldn't run so I said hi. She told me to grab some extra bits. I asked why.  "Because the script says so duh..." 

I flew quickly back to my house. Its more of a mansion but it feels good to call it a home. I grabbed a bag with about 14 bits in it. I only needed 10 but Pinkie said I needed extra. I went to Twilights place and gave her the bits. I was on my way but I felt thirsty. I had the money for a drink (thanks to pinkie) so I went to buy one. On my way there, I saw a filly. She was up pretty high and I went to see what she was doing. She was crying. And her wings. No she couldn't. She was gonna jump! I just coudn't believe what I was seeing. She looked really familar. It couldn't be though...

While I was lost in my own thoughts,she'd jumped. I was about to fly and get her but something amazing happened. She her body was on fire! And it was there was lightning bolts all over her body. The strange thing was, she wasnt burning. Was this like my Sonic Rainboom? This filly, was amazing. It was almost like she and I had the same blood running through us. But that woud be impossible. She couldn't be. My Lightning Rider.
She was almost at the ground. Lost in my thoughts again, I hadn't noticed. I was almost too late. Almost.
I flew faster then I've ever done. Anyone who was below was in for a treat. 

Berry Punch was drinking again. She liked to look up when she was drunk. There was the biggest explosion of rainbows and fire. She proceeded to spill her bottle. "Gosh Colgate was right..."

I thought she would be grateful but she was screaming. Telling me to put her down. Let her die. No freaking way on Equestria would I put her down. At least until she was safe. Her voice. It just made me happy. Like I'd heard it before. I held onto the hope that it was her. 

I finally got a good look at her. She just looked lost. Her cyan eyes were innocent and screamed "Help me". I assumed her coat was yellow since it was covered in dirt. The only hint of yellow was were she had been crying. Her mane was only 2 colours. Light blue and red. It looked like my mane. Her tail was mostly red with blue tips.I was about to swear and scream at her. Then I remembered that she was a kid and she might be her...

I just calmly asked her why. What she said had shocked me. She was homeless. She had no family. "D-Do you at least recognise me?" She slowly shook her head and asked why. I allowed one tear to fall.She doesn't know who I am. I don't even know if it is her but nevertheless I would protect her. "So I'm guessing  you need a home huh? Well your in luck! I just happen to have some spare rooms and I guess I could spare a couple. You also have alot of talent. With the right training, you could be amazing.  bet living on the streets did you some good though. I'll bet your an awesome fighter. I just happen to be the best flier in Equestria. That thing you did, its alot like something that I did a long time ago.Granted I wasn't trying to die but, looks like the results are the same." I motioned to her flank and she saw her cutie mark. Overwhelmed by the happiness I'd given her and getting her cutie mark, she ninja hugged me. I was a little surprised but I welcomed it. "Wait, you don't have a name do you?" She shook her head. "Well I've got the perfect one, Lightning Rider..."
