Not at all" laughed a gray pegasus. "Grimflight was it?" I demand you to release me!" yelled a gray unicorn. "Shut the hell up!" yelled a red earth pony as he slapped the unicorn "Ya ain't goin anywhere Lightning Bolt! Ma boss need ya fer some examintion!" yelled the earth pony "Oh is that so? Who is your boss Rig Kick?! Damn it!" yelled Bolt "Boss do ya need me to knock this unicorn to hell?" asked Grim "No need flight. Ah gotta deal with him until the boss arrive. He sure is takin' a hell of a long time." answered Kick "Ya can deal with that there filly over there." said Kick as he pointed his hoof to a sky blue pegasus filly that was knocked straight into Luna's dreamworld. "Boy. She did put up some fight protectin' her father."said Kick "Hay boss this ...er... idiota is putting a hell of a fight!" screamed Grim as Bolt kicked him in the stomach. " I got it. Whoo hold yer horses pardner." said Kick. Slowly Grim and Kick heard a crackle from the old intercom. "Kick, bring the filly to the lab this instance. I need her." laughed the voice that came over the intercom. "Sure thing Boss. Wha ya need her fer?" asked Kick he untied the filly's ropes. "Let my daugther go this istance! You whore!" yelled Bolt "Callate! Tienes que se tranqula a menos que usted quiere que su hija sea matada!" yelled Grim in Ponish. "Oh it's all right Bolt. I won't hurt her. She'll be all fine." said the voice with a manical laugh. > Chapter 1 "A Broken Heart" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lightning gazed at the sky as Luna was rising her moon. Lightning had always come to love the night, to her it was considered awesome. "So peaceful...." Lightning said as she saw the princess flying by her window. Lightning waved at the ruler of the night and bowed. "May the stars watch over you young filly." said Luna as she saw Lightning gazing at her most beatiful night. Lightning giggled, Luna's night was so beatiful she worshipped Luna and respected her as much as anypony that respected Celestia. As Luna passed her window Lightning gazed down at a picture lying on her bed. On the picture was two fillies sitting next to each other laughing, Lightning flew down from her window and sat on her bed. "Oh Silver if you were only here right now you could've seen Princess Luna greet me." said Lightning with a deep and long sigh. Silver was Lightning's best pal ever since kindergarten. With Lightning's disorder (Breeze's have a disability with flying and they needed to be thought how to fly without the breeze to blow them along) Silver helped her to fly without so much of a blow from your mouth "Oh Silver, you are the best pal a pegasus could asks for." Lightning sighed. She then put down the picture and flew up to the perch of her window. There was a very long silence just as Luna's Moon was halfway to it's highest peak. Lightning stared softly at Orion's Belt, a flashback started. 2 years ago, "Hay Silver. Why are we out here?" asked Lightning as she turned towards Silver who's eyes were closed. "Silver!" Lightning yelled and jerked Silver up "Hay! I was playing for Celestia's amusement!" said Silver with a laugh. "Alright then. But I need you to answer my question." said Lightning. "I thought that somepony liked Luna's night." said Silver "Pfft....Ok,ok, why are we here in the first place Silver?" asked Lightning "Ok, do you see that? That's Orion's Belt. I learned that the princesses named that after a pony by the name of Orion who was so proud of his belt and that Princess Celestia liked him so much." said Silver pointing to a constellation. "Wow! I know you're smart but I didn't know you knew that much!" exclamied Lightning with delight. "That's fine, Ya know friends are different so that's why friendship is so unique in Equestria. Friendship is how Nightmare Moon, Discord, and Queen Chrysalis got defeated." said Silver "Again you're in Albert Ponstein mode Silver. Seriously mane, you've been doing that ever since Star told you about Albert Ponstein." said Lightning "Ha ha. That's Lightning, the joker!" laughed Silver "Hay quit it! I do like this night." said Lightning "It's beatiful and it should last as a beatiful night everynight in Equestria." said Lightning with a very long sigh. "Just like our friendship." said Silver. "Yup, just like our friendship." replied Lightning The two fillies pushed each other and laughed they hugged as the moon grew higher. Present day Lightning flew down and put away the picture, she then pushed the blankets on her bed and rolled up in them. She sighed "Well we can have a talk again pal." She turned and took one last look at the moon before closing her eyelids. "We'll meet again Silver." she muttered and fell asleep. > Chapter 2 "A memory that haunts you." > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lightning awoke as soon as Star called her name. "Lightning wake up! You'll be late for the ENFS flight exam!" yelled Star Breeze from downstairs. "Coming cuz! I'll be down soon!" said Lightning. She had been living with her cousin after her parents died. Lightning flew downstairs and got on her coat, fedora, and some fake glasses that Silver gave her the day before she moved away to Manehatten. "Lightning be careful and have a great time." said Star "Don't forget your lucky charm necklace. And make sure you fly according to the test course okay." said Star "Star! It's okay cuz, I got it. Don't ya remeber my mentor?" said Lightning with a cock of the head. "Sure do. Silver was a good little filly eh?" replied Star 2 years ago. "Silver? Wh-wh- why are we here?" asked Lightning as she looked down from the mountain they were on. "Today, we're gonna do steep dives like Rainbow Dash does when she does the sonic rainboom. I believe you can do the sonic lightningboom." said Silver. "The-the-the sonic lightningboom? But-bu- thats-thats- just-jus th-a old ma-mare's ta-tail." replied Lightning. "Well everypony thought the sonic rainboom was a mare's tail but it was real." said Silver "Come on Lightning you can do it. I believe in you." said Silver with a pat on Lightning's mane. "Okay, here it goes." said Lightning Lightning flew up higher and higher and pointed her muzzle down towards the ground. She flew down faster and faster, an electrical currency travel through her mane. "COME ON LIGHTNING! GO, GO, GO LIGHTNING!" yelled Silver as Lightning flew down faster like a jet. Lightning went down and down until......BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As Lightning hit the last cloud a shocking explosion appeared as she hit the cloud. Scaring ponies and amusing little fillies and colt. Lightning look behind her, the same trace of the Wonder Bolts appeared after her staying in one place instead of disappering. "Alright Lightning! That was....AWESOME!" screamed Silver as Lightning landed next to her. "Hay, this is all thanks to you Silver." said Lightning. "Hay, Lightning the sonic lightningboom didn't just happened either. Check it." said Silver and pointed to Lightning's flank. Lightning turned and saw her cutiemark. The fillies laughed and tackled each other. Present Day "Ok Lightning enough of the memories let's get going." said Star. Both of the ponies laughed and hoofed each. They jumped and flew off to ENFS.
