//------------------------------// // The Nerd, the Rainbow, and Her // Story: My Big Sister Lightning Dust // by BronySis //------------------------------// "Check!" the purple alicorn exclaimed in her chipper voice. Its about midnight in the town of Ponyville. Over at the Golden Oaks Library, three mares and a dragon where having a slumber party. The three mares were in the bed room on the floor, while the little purple dragon was in the kitchen. "Alright, now its time for pillow fights." Rainbow Dash eye's lit up, she look over to Lightning Dust who seems to be staring off into space. "Hey Lightning," "Rainbow, can you go check on Scoots?" Lightning asked Rainbow, concern in her voice. Rainbow noticed the tone and thought why not. "Hey Twi, I will be right back." Twilight nodded her head. With that Rainbow flew out of the cozy library for Scootaloo's house. Now its just two mares and a cooking dragon. "So... How do you know Rainbow Dash?" Lightning looked shocked at Twilight. She doesn't remember me from the academy. Lightning thought to herself, as of now she could say shes Scootaloo's sister and be positive with the princess, and be caught as a lair. Or she could be honest and have a princess mad at her for breaking her students trust, and her best friend's muzzle. But she didn't want Rainbow Dash to call her out, so honesty it is. "Well I was Rainbow Dash's flight partner, then I almost killed you. And me and my sister got in a fight, Rainbow went to check on me, I was drunk at a bar. Me and Dash got in a fight, then we got stuck in jail. So in short I have no idea where she got the idea we were best friends....Also I am Scootaloo's older sister" Twilight looked absolutely shocked. Then with a little uncertainty said. "I didn't ask that, I just asked how you two know each other." Lightning realized this. Her face get tomato red, the two are completely silent until, thankfully. A little purple dragon came in with hot pile of his famous nacho's. "Alright, here you go." "Thanks, Spike." Twilight smiled at Spike with a sisterly smile.Spike smiled back and went to go sit right next to Twilight. Twilight put her wing around the little purple dragon. The gesture in Equestria is a gesture of comfort. Lightning grew a smile from seeing this type of bond. Twilight looked over to Lightning and matched her smile. For a moment they had a bit of a stare, the stare that they understood each other. "Well dig in," the three stared eating the amazingly done nacho's. Half way through the pile Twilight thought of something. "Hey Lightning, so your Scootaloo's sister. I never have seen your parents around." Spike stood up and started doing his arms in a, No No motion. Twilight saw the signal and said. "What its not a bad question." Spike slapped his face in, are you kidding me manner. "Well.... I'd rather not talk about it." The tension in the air was thick and tight. But thankfully a sky blue pegasus flew in and cut the tension. "She's fine, but she wants to talk." Lightning Dust eyes grew with fear. She wasn't ready to talk, she isn't quiet even over her hangover. "Look I will be there to make sure nothing escalates." Rainbow Dash tried to comfort, but it didn't to Lightning. Rainbow would take side of Scootaloo for sure. But it will not get to the point where Rainbow has to pick sides. Lightning pauses she want to fix things but she isn't ready for it. ".....OK," Rainbow didn't even feel the discomfort and started pushing Lightning out the door. Twilight felt this but before she could bring it up Rainbow and Lightning were out of the building. Twilight's face grew of concern. "I hope those two will be alright," Spike tried to comfort the alicorn that they are going to be just fine. And they can write in there diary afterwards and everything would end perfectly.
