(Story idea requested by superfun. Takes place before the events of "The Last Problem" for obvious reasons.)
There can only ever be one captain of the Wonderbolts, that's a rule that everypony knows. In order for a new captain to take over the old one must either die, retire or step down. Such is the situation that Spitfire finds herself in.
With Rainbow Dash poised to take over as captain and lead the Wonderbolts into a new era, Spitfire grapples with her decision to retire from the team she's lead for so long. And as she prepares to hoof over the reigns she starts to reflect back to her younger days.
Spitfire will recall all the ups and downs she's had as captain and how she even rose to the rank in the first place. After all, a mare like her being in charge of the greatest performance flyers in all of Equestria comes with a lot of memories.
REALLY enjoyable one-shot. Definitely loved the work that went into the exchanges, characterizations and general wrap-up. REALLY enjoyed Spitfire's reflections on her younger days when she was just starting out as captain on her final day before passing the job on to Rainbow.
Very much looking forward to more of your work in general.
Well this was a very nice story seeing how Spitfire went through a lot of years while she was still the captain of the Wonderbolts and looking back all the years she's been through and yes Rainbow dash is the perfect candidate to be the captain of the Wonderbolts this was a pretty good story to see Spitfire been doing before her retirement was coming keep up the good work
Firefly? WOW! That’s the name of the Pegasus that took Megan to Ponyland in the original MLP series.
