//------------------------------// // Chapter 7: Outsiders Perspective of a Flight School Legend // Story: The Long Life of Breeze Rider // by Tyler-the-Brony //------------------------------// Celestia had been right about Breeze Rider’s path through Flight School. He was an amazing flier in everypony’s eyes. He was not only acing all of his classes without much effort by his 4th year, but he was even tutoring some of the other students. The teachers saw this, and began to talk amongst themselves. They were considering something they’d never done before. They were going to extend an offer to Breeze Rider to stay on as an Under-Instructor when he graduated. This position was extended only to those the Cloudsdale Flight School Administrators acknowledged as Teacher material in the future. The position had never been extended to somepony as young as Breeze Rider. Come to think of it though, a student as young as Breeze Rider had never even been admitted to the school before he came along. Breeze Rider happily accepted the offered position when he graduated. All he asked was to teach a class all on his own, made up of ponies he himself would select from the entire school. The faculty happily agreed. Within 4 months of Breeze Rider starting, his class was the most popular and most applied for. He also made it a point to meet all of the applicants for his class, and personally tell them if they had made it and explain greatly if they hadn’t. He had a “gift” as they called it for picking the best and most troubled students and fine tuning them into future Best Young Fliers. Nopony at the school knew that his gift was actually real. His decisions came from peeks into the future, courtesy of a gift from his Godmother. As a very young colt, Princess Celestia had personally blessed him with a gift only she had possessed before that point. Breeze Rider was able to take glimpses into the future and see how the applicants or current students of his class would do with or without his personal instruction. He only selected those that would truly need it. No more, no less.
