Like most Pegasi, Rainbow Dash lives in Cloudsdale. For little Dash, though, Clousdale is all she knows.
Sheʼs about to change that.
Dash is accompanying her good friend, Flutttershy, for their first trip to the World Below. The two filles are about to discover a whole new world, filled with beauty and so many wonders.
And maybe learn a thing or two along the way.

Super cute!
If a little unpolished.

Thanks!
And yeah, this was brought to you raw and unedited. Probably should have re-read it, though.
I didn't even need to read the story itself to know how easily this could fit in show cannon. It must have occurred at some time or else Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash wouldn't have ever gone to Ponyille later. I have read this story though, and I greatly approve. Let me just get a few nitpicks out of the way first.
You can copy/paste the sentence above in find to find it. latte should be latter. Just needed one more letter.
As for Mrs. Buttercup, I'd change each reference to "apple" into "pear". Buttercup would be a fiilly too at this time so she certainly didn't marry Brightmac yet. During this time, she had far more association with pears. The reference otherwise works.
Can't give too many names, but there is a handful of unicorns that live in Ponyville even during this time. Cookie Crumbles and family certainly weren't the only ones. You're story did say that though and I admit that earth pony population likely is the stronger census for Ponyville.
Other than what is mentioned above, it's so easy to get immersion into this particular story. So easy to see that this might have actually happened, or at least something akin to it. I like the child-like touch to it especially, like Rainbow here not knowing the word for branches. Never occurred to me that they'd be unfamiliar with stairs either.
Anyway, this is adorable and well within the spirit of the show. Well done , Uz Naimat. I'm going to share this with my friends now.
P.S.: Really like the front cover of the story too.

Always appreciate your comments, Scroll, and thank you so much for the kind words!
Buttercup is Applejackʼs mother. Sheʼs a generation above Dash and Fluttershy. Definitely not a filly. At this point in the timeline, not only was she married and identified as an Apple, but AJ herself was already born. Hence why she introduces yourself as Buttercup and not Pear Butter.
Aww, thanks! Glad you like it.

Right. Aj would have been born during this time so you're right about Buttercups age and association.
I could easily see something like this having been canon in either the show or the comics. There's lots of untapped potential for the mane six's childhoods.

Thatʼs what my series is aiming for. Glad you enjoyed the story!
After looking at this story, it makes me wonder why they didn't do a backstory of how they wound up in Ponyville in the show itself.

That’s what my series aims to do - fill the gaps of show canon. I’m planning on doing one for little Pinkie as well.
