> Rainboy Dash > by Bobette > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Doesn't feel right > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash looked at herself in the mirror, and sighed. She hated her weak girly face. Her stupid eyelashes. Her girly mane, and muscleless body. If only she had a strong, buff body! Like.. Big Mac, strong, masculine, and 20% cooler than being.. A, a MARE! She kicked her side table with her front hoof. "Ow. Arghh. Stupid weak mare hoofs!" She didn't understand how Rarity could ENJOY brushing her mane 24/7, and always paying attention to looks. Stallions always staring at you. I guess it wouldn't be too bad if I was as sexy as Rarity. She thought "NO! No no no NO!!! I have to stop these little CRUSHES!!" She started blushing just thinking about her extremely good looking friends. "UGH!!! Am I a FRIKIN LESBO?!? NO! Not cool rainbow, not cool, keep it together, they aren't THAT hot!" Thinking back to when she was a filly, she realised how different she was. All her friends were stallions, she was her daddy's girl and would often go out to drink cider with him. She used to lift weights all the time just so she was more masculine. And she remembered her very first friend who was a girl. She had a crush her her! "Wow. I'm lucky my friends are girls now!" She turned and looked at the clock. 8:05! She was late! "Ugh... Oh no, guess ill have to fly faster, and skip breakfast..." She quickly flattened her un-brushed mane, stuffed a left over piece of muffin in her mouth (from pinkie's birthday party for derpy), and zoomed out her fluffy house. Today she was making clouds in the cloud factory. As she flew to work, she already saw the same annoying stallion staring at her, giving her flirty looks. She mumbled under her breath. "He's so annoying. Why can't he stare at somepony who LIKES him?!" She grumbled, and picked up her pace. She was becoming more late by the second. If only she was a stallion. No stupid ponies distracting her. And if did happen to distract her it would be hot mares. If only she could... Change.... > Who would even want to? > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finally she arrived at work, landing softly on the cloud floor, she heard somepony behind her. "Rain-bow Dash... You're late, again" She realised who it was. And sighed. "Yes Thunderlane, I know." She turned around rolling her big rose eyes, yet smiling slightly. Thunderlane let out a small chuckle, and rainbow went to get into her work clothing. After she was dressed, she joined Thunderlane by the cloud fluffier workshop. "Hey" "Hey" Only a few moments of talking Rainbow dash and Thunderlane were giggling away, chatting to each other. "Ooohhh... What are you two talking about..?" Giggled Cloudcasher,in a sing-song voice, making both rainbow and thunder blush. "Hehe, I think they like each other!" Added Flitter. "NO I DONT!!!" Shouted rainbow Dash , flying right up to Flitter's face, her face a deep red. "Woah, calm down dash, she's only kidding!" "Oh is she? Hehe, are you sticking up for your girlfriend Thunder-lane?" Teased Cloudchaser. Rainbow dash couldn't take it any longer, she couldn't stand teasing, especially went it wasn't true, since she didnt even LIKE STALLIONS! She loved MARES, except Flitter and Cloudchaser. "SHUT UP!! I DONT LIKE THUNDERLANE!!!! I DONE EVEN LIKE STALLIONS!!! I LIKE MARES SO P*** OFF YOU A******!!!!" Everyone gasped. Rainbow looked around at all the shocked ponies. Did she just admit.. She liked, mares? "Ohhh...no no no no noooooo! What have I DONE!" She bolted out of the factory and flew all the way to her house, her face was still red, but from embarrassment, and fear. Her eyes where tearing up, and she could barley see. She landed harshly on the cloud her house was floating on, and locked herself in her room. "Why, why, WHY!? I'm such and IDIOT!" She sobbed into her pillow, afraid her life was ruined forever. Suddenly she heard a knock at her door, she ignored it. The door clicked open, and somepony walked in. "Uhhmm.. Rainbow dash? You in here? Wow, nice place! Uh, anyway, rainbow?" She knew who it was, Thunderlane, she let out a small sob, trying to contain herself, but Thunder heard her. "Rainbow... Is that you? Come on out, I'm not gonna laugh!" She heard him walking towards her door, he twisted the doorknob but couldn't get in as it was locked. "Come on Dashie, lemme in already. Forget about stupid Cloudchaser and Flitter. It's ok, I know you're not actually a lesbo! Come on!" She was so frustrated! Not actually as lesbo? Wow. But she was!! How could he just ASSUME she was joking or something?! Dash picked herself up and angrily,then unlocked and opened the door. She stared at Thunderlane with a dirty look on her face, her raging eyes on fire. He was backing away, but fell on the floor, RD towering over him. "NOT ACTUALLY A LESBO?? ARE YOU SERIOUS ?!? ARGH! HOW CAN YOU JUST GUESS I WAS JOKING! I DO HAVE FEELINGS FOR MARES, AND NOT STALLIONS, ESPECIALLY STUPID ONES LIKE YOU!!!!" She was about to throw a punch, when he flew up to the corner of her room. He knew she called him stupid out of anger, but he was quite taken aback about the lesbian thing. Rainbow Dash? A lesbian? It didn't seem right...He always thought there was a chance she might have liked him. He had to admit he was slightly disappointed.He liked her,yet he wanted to make her happy by supporting rainbow and helping her through tuff times. Finally he found the words to speak. "I-uh, Rainbow, rainbow,I-I'm sorry ok! I thought you just said it coz you were angry! Don't hurt me, I can..help you!" "HELP ME??? HOW CAN YOU HELP ME?!?!?! IM A F***ING LESBIAN!!! I MIGHT LOSE ALL MY FRIENDS, MY LIFE!!" "You won't if you were a stallion." He simply said. "W-wha... A stallion?! What do you mean Thunderlane, don't mess with me!" He knew she was about to hit him again soon, so he just got strait to the point. "A stallion. Y-you can change your gender through surgery!" Rainbow dash stopped, and tried to figure out what he was on about. "W-What do you mean..?" She sat on her bed, and Thunderlane flew down to join her. "You can change you're gender. I know a guy who is a pro at this stuff. He's changed LOADS of ponies gender, I bet you don't even know that some ponies weren't mares or stallions before!" She didnt know what to say. Surgery? How does it even work? What would everypony even think of her after it? A stallion? Really? How come she's never even heard about it? It was all too confusing. "I-I... Uhhmm.. I don't know... What do you mean? How!?" "He uses plastic surgery to make you a different gender. He's actually really good!" "A-are you a trans gender?" "W-what!? NO! I mean, I don't want to be one, but it's not gross, I was just-" Dash giggled. "Well, who is this guy anyway?" She couldn't believe she was even CONSIDERING this! "His name is Shadow Blitz" She looked at him with one eyebrow raised. "Heheh, yeah, I know, creepy name, but he's nice, just a little... I don't know, quite and mysterious, I guess." Dash sighed. He knew she couldn't make her mind up so quickly. "But don't want to change completely just because I'm a lesbian! That's stupid!" "Well... Would that be your only reason why..?" "N-no. Sometimes.. I just feel like more of a stallion, than a ... Mare.. You know?" Thunderlane sighed. He knew she was still unsure. "Look, i'll send you his number soon,and give you time... Just.... Don't worry about what other ponies think of you be who you want to be...okay?" "Mm.. I-*sighs* I, dont.... Know..." Thunderlane smiled slightly, he was glad to help one of his best friends. He her a hug, and flew out the house. Wow. Rainbow Dash the stallion. Now that would be weird, she'd have to change her name to RainBOY dash! he thought, laughing slightly thinking about "I just hope she makes the right choice she's happy with. " he quietly said, while flying off to his house. > Considering the facts > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbow Dash was laying on her bed, thinking about becoming transgender. "No. I CAN'T!" She thought about her friends, and the pros and cons. "Okay. Pro- it will be less awkward crushing on them, and they may even have a crush on me back." She smiled at the thought of her and Futtershy together. Or her and Applejack. Or Rarity. Or her and Twi reading together. "NO! Ugh, I'm so GROSS!! Okay... Con... Will they even like me after this? What is I lose my friends coz of it!?" She sighed. Why was it so complex? If only she could just ask them without the situation being weird. Then she remembered what Thunderlane said. "Something about doing what makes you happy and not others... Blah blah BLAH! Ponies will still JUDGE me bout it!" She let out a long sigh. "And I hate being judged" She stared at her ceiling. She had no idea what to do. It all seemed so crazy, that she could actually change her gender! But what if it didn't work? What if it just messed up her face? Maybe I should just stay a tomboyish mare... I don't want to risk this. She knew that she was going a little far. Just because she doesn't really like the look of a mare, and isn't sexually ac tracked to stallions, and feels like a stallion, doesn't mean she should become one! Right..? "Ugh! I hate life! Ill never choose!" Then an idea sparked. She could invite her friends round, have a sleepover, than the topic of crushes will come up (it always does when Rarity is at a sleepover) and she can ask them a random crazy hypothetical question! Hey... Wouldn't it be so crazy if a pony changed their gender or something? What would you guys do if you found out somepony changed their gender? And that way, they would all say what they would think of it, and she would know what they would think of her changing her gender! "I'm genius!" She said, flying up into the air with a big grin on her face.
