The next day, Rainbow was sleeping on her bunk bed. But the bottom bunk was actually a desktop area which had Dash's computer. Dash was sleeping like a log until something started buzzing like hell when the clock hit 6:00 AM. Dash immediately woke up, only to find that it was her alarm clock doing that. She then tried to go back to sleep because she was still exhausted from the dramatic game last night. But it was Friday that day so Dash had something to care about. So she got out of bed slowly and climbed down the ladder to her alarm clock and pressed the snooze button. After she yawned, Dash then went over to turn on the lights and went over to a giant watered tank that had Dash's pet turtle, Tank.
"G'morning Tank. Time for breakfast." Dash said to her turtle. Tank slowly looked up to her and smiled. Dash smiled back for a bit and grabbed Tank a leaf for breakfast. After that, she went over to her dresser and pulled out black shorts, a magenta skirt with white stripes, a white t-shirt with a red, yellow, and blue lightning bolt coming from a cloud, and a blue, short-sleeved outer shirt. She then took off her blue pajama pants and white pajama shirt with red sleeves which also had the lightning bolt from Dash's t-shirt. She would then put on her shorts, followed by the skirt. Before Dash put on her shirts, she went back to her dresser, grabbed her roll-on deodorant, and rolled it on her armpits.
She would then take a whiff from her armpits and say to herself, "If you wanna be the best, you have to smell like the best." She would then put on her white t-shirt followed by her blue outer shirt. She then went back to her dresser and grabbed a pair of horizontally rainbow-colored socks, as well as a pair of red, yellow, and blue wrist bands. She'd put both on and would then go to the bathroom. When she looked at herself in the mirror, she noticed that her hair was messy, so she grabbed her hairbrush and brushed her hair until it was straight. She would then grab the toothbrush, water it, put on her toothpaste, and brush her teeth. After she rinsed her mouth with mouth wash, she went back to her room and grab her tall shoes that had white soles, trim, and laces, but was all covered with blue. She then went downstairs to the kitchen to see her dad preparing breakfast.
"Morning dad." said Dash.
Blaze looked back at his daughter and said, "Oh, morning Dash. I made your favorite this morning." He then handed Dash her breakfast which contained scrambled eggs with cheese on the top, as well as a glass of milk. Blaze grabbed his breakfast and joined his daughter at the table.
Dash then said to her father, "I gotta say dad, your eggs never disappoint like always."
Blaze replied, "Well anything for the one who once again led us to victory at yet another successful game. Plus it's Friday, so what more can you want?" Dash chuckled for a bit. Blaze then asked Dash, "So Dash, you wanna head over to my garage today after school? I could use a little help with some customers."
"Only if I get paid this time around." Dash said with a smirk.
"You will... if you behave unlike the other times." Blaze also said with a smug look.
Dash then came back with, "It was only an accident. I accidentally dropped the motor on that guy's foot and he kept yelling at us in jibberish or some other language."
"You know I was kidding right?" Blaze said back. Dash sarcastically laughed as she continued to eat her eggs, while Blaze chuckled for a bit. Dash managed to finish all the eggs off her plate and drank all of her milk. "So, do you and Fluttershy need a ride to school?" Blaze asked.
"No, it's okay. Ever since the bus broke down, we found walking to school a lot better. Plus it's a lot shorter since we can go our own path." replied Dash. Blaze nodded his head. "So, it's Friday. Like you said. It's also the day you post a new Retro Games video to your Youtube channel. You gonna continue The Legend of Zelda today?" Dash asked.
"Yeah, I was gonna get to the fourth dungeon today. Gonna try and challenge Gleeok again. A rematch 30 years in the making." said Blaze.
"Cool. Anyways, I'm gonna go wash up." Dash said as she went to the bathroom with an empty plate and glass. Blaze sighed as he finished his breakfast and took the plates and glasses to the sink. Afterward, he heard a knocking at the front door. He opened it and it was Dash's friend Fluttershy.
"Hi, Dash's dad." she said in a kind-hearted and timid tone. "Is Dash here? We need to get to school early."
"Oh hi Fluttershy. Yep, Dash is washing up after breakfast. Why don't you come in for a bit?" Blaze asked her. Fluttershy nodded her head and came in. Blaze then said to Rainbow who was in the bathroom, "Fluttershy's here."
"Okay." Dash replied. She came out of the bathroom after washing her hands and went to her friend and gave her friend a gentle high-five. "Hey Fluttershy." said Dash.
"Hey Dashie. You ready to go?" Fluttershy asked. Dash nodded her head and went to go get her backpack. She would then go by her dad and give him a fist bump.
She would hug him and say, "Bye dad."
"Bye, Dashie." he replied as he'd kiss her on the cheek, only for Dash to get a bit embarrassed with Fluttershy giggling a bit. "You have a good day at school." He said to her. Dash nodded one last time. Dash and Fluttershy then left the house and started walking their way to school.
10 minutes passed since Dash and Fluttershy started walking to school and were 5 minutes away there. The two didn't talk to each other much on their way to school. The reason being, that even though Rainbow Dash was her best friend, Fluttershy still acted really shy and didn't know what to say. But Fluttershy then decided to man up and start talking to Dash.
"So...Dashie?" she said in a shy tone.
Dash noticed this and replied, "What's wrong Fluttershy?"
"Oh nothing... Um...ooh! I heard you once again led us to victory again last night. What was the final score?" Fluttershy asked eagerly in a timid tone.
"28 to 27. It was a pretty close game, but we managed to come out on top in the end." replied Dash.
"That's great to hear. So anyways... Um...what else to say...um, oh yeah. I heard that we might get a new student today!" said Fluttershy.
Rainbow Dash then got an 'ugh' look on her face and said, "What? We're getting another student this semester? What grade is he or she gonna be in?"
"From what I hear, she's a junior." said Fluttershy.
Rainbow's 'ugh' face got worst and she said, "She's gonna be in our class? Well that could possible add yet another new weird kid to my list of weirdies."
Fluttershy quickly got serious and said quickly, "RAINBOW DASH!" And she would punch her hard in the arm.
"Ow! Fluttershy, for a shy girl, you do know how to hurt!" Dash said to her in an angry tone.
"Oh dear! I'm so sorry, here lemme take of it." said Fluttershy in her caring tone. She then kissed her hand and put it on Dash's arm. "Feeling better?" she asked dearly.
"It's nothing Fluttershy. But I did say COULD. Not would, I'm just predicting it." Dash replied to her shy friend.
"Dash, I'm sure it's the new student is gonna be alright." said Fluttershy.
"Let's just hope on it." Dash replied. The two would then make it to the school doors, they were 15 minutes early before the first bell. The two would go in and go by their lockers. Putting their stuff in, grabbing their school books and getting to their first class. This was pretty much the start of the day that'd change Dash's life forever, and it all started with the new student.
