SoarinDash: How it All Began (SoarinDash One)

by RainbowButter

First published

Rainbow Dash has been accepted to Ponyvile University! She thought school was the easiest thing ever, well, until she met a boy.

Rainbow Dash has just entered Ponyvile Univeristy! She's totally cyced, especially since she has all of her classes with the new hottie. Her two best friends, PinkiePie and Octavia, have landed a spot in the PVU, but the three share none of the same classes, since they all have different majors. School was a breeze for Rainbow, that is, until she met the hottest pony ever! Dashie finds herself staying up until extremely late times thinking of this pony, by the name of "Soarin." What's even worse, is that they now sit next to each other, in Flight Training, where everypony is being paired up with the pony sitting right next to them...
Soarin, being a true wonder bolt by heart, has just caught a glimpse of the new freshpony, yet he doesn't know his feelings. His friends have quoted to him "She has a nice tail, and butt." And sure, maybe he kinda agrees. But once Ms. Spitfire assigns the new Flight project, he can't help but worry about the emotions he has for this new girl, "Rainbow".
The Flying project leads to an amazing friendship between the two, and possibly something more...

"Thank you, Soarin." Blue Haired Beast told her, his hoof still on her shoulder.
"Eh, it was nice of you I guess." Rainbow Dash told Soarin. "But I can take care of myself."
"I'm sure you can." Soarin responded, "But your a girl, and I find that hard to believe."
Rainbow Dash's tempature started to rise. She hated it when stallions didn't appreciate all the work that mares do!
"Gender doesn't prove anything!" Rainbow Dash shot at him.
"Oh, it doesn't?"
"No, it doesn't!"
"Well, talk to society.
"Why would I talk to somepony invisible?"

Chapter One: First Day Jitters

~~~


Rainbow Dash stepped outside into the early morning sun. A Pegasus mail-pony with yellow hair, yellow crossed eyes, six bubbles on her flank for her cutie mark, and a soft grey body stood outside of Rainbow's door. Ponyvile wasn't yet up, and Celestia was surely taking her time to raise the sun.

"Mail-pony Derpy reporting for duty." Derpy said, then put her hoof on her forehead, saluting Rainbow Dash.

"Um...okey?" Rainbow Dash said confused.

"Does Rainbow Dash live here?" Derpy asked.

"Your talking to her." Rainbow replied, then watched as Derpy picked an envelope out of her bag wit her mouth. Derpy flew away, leaving Raibow Dash alone.

The envelope had a red waxed circle covering the opening with the letters PVU imprinted on the front. Rainbow Dash held her breath as she ever so carefully opened the envelope.

Congratulations!

We are proud to inform you that you have been accepted to PVU!

Rainbow Dash's heart skipped a beat. This is so awesome! She thought to herself, then continued reading.

On request of Princess Celestia, you have received a full payed scholarship for all of your years in college!

And I don't have to pay a thing! Rainbow Dash thought to herself again. Hello University life!

~~~


Rainbow Dash snored sleepily in her huge, rainbowlicious, bed. She had been living in an apartment with Pinkie Pie, (a pink earthpony with crazy hot pink hair, blue eyes, and three balloons for a cutie mark) and Octavia (an earthpony with dark black hair and a cloudy grey body, purple eyes, a white ribbon with a pink bow around her neck, and a purple treble cleft as a cutie mark), since they all where going to PVU, a local University. Suddenly, Pinkie Pie bursted through the door, and jumped on Rainbow Dash's bed, scaring the living daylight out of her. And well, injuring her very precious legs.

"PINKIE!!" Rainbow screamed at the top of her lungs.

Pinkie Pie jumped off her bed, a fat smile plastered on her face.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?" Pinkie said, innocently. Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes as she lazily got out of bed, carefully stepping her hooves on the ground. She winced at the pain in her beautiful back legs, but once she took a couple more steps, her legs felt better.

"What's all this ruckus about?" Octavia said, entering the room where the two ponies where.

"Pinkie jumped on my fabulous legs!" Rainbow whined.

"Dashie wouldn't get up and I didn't want to be late to my very first day in college!" Pinkie had whined back.

Octavia raised her eyebrow, looking at her two strange friends. "So, neither of you are worried about school..." Octavia said, a slight bit of worry in her voice.

"Why should we be!" Pinkie said, smiling from ear to ear. School can't be that hard, besides, what's there to be worried about? Rainbow thought to herself.

"No, of course not. Who would be afraid of something as stupid as that?" Rainbow replied, a slight bit of worry in her voice too.

"Exactly." Pinkie agreed.

"Are you worried?" Rainbow Dash questioned Octavia, suddenly worried about her good friend.

"No, I'm fine. I think I'm just a little bit stressed over the fact that Vinyl is now at another school..." Octavia said sadly, as she stared down at her hooves. Rainbow placed her hoove on Octavia's shoulder, and offered her a slight smile. Octavia smiled a little back, then backed away, muttering something about breakfast. Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash followed.


~~~


Rainbow poured some Hayios into a plastic bowl, then grabbed a spoon from the drawer in her mouth. She set the spoon next to her bowl then looked in the fridge for some milk. She opened the fridge to find at least 100 decorated cupcakes blocking her milk.
"PINKIE PIE!" Rainbow screamed in fury, her stomach growling.

"Yes, Dashie?" Pinkie Pie said, hopping into the room, with a bunch of balloons flying behind her.

"Pinkie, why is there cupcakes in the fridge blocking my milk!?!!?" Rainbow Dash questioned angrily.

"Oooooooh, those. I forgot to tell you about them. Just have dry Hayios today." Pinkie said.

With that, she walked away, her pink fluffy hair bouncing behind her. Rainbow could feel her tempature rising by the second. She slammed the fridge door and took a spoonful of the dry cereal into her mouth. Dashie stuck out her tongue in disgust.

"Pinkie's cupcakes blocking the fridge again?" Octavia asked, then rolled her eyes.

Rainbow Dash nooded her head furiously. "I couldn't get to the milk and now I have to eat dry cereal! Sometimes Pinkie can be a pain in the tail." Rainbow said, muttering the last sentence.

"Don't get your hooves in a bundle. Dry cereal isn't soooo bad." Octavia told Rainbow, trying to lift her spirits.

"Yeah right. I'll just grab a banana and eat that." Rainbow Dash muttered.

"And Rainbow?" Octavia said.

"Yes?" Rainbow replied.

"Pinkie isn't the only one that can be a pain in the tail." Octavia joked as Rainbow Dash stormed out of the room with a banana in her hoof.

~~~


Rainbow, Pinkie, and Octavia trotted to school.

"EEEEK! I'm so excited I could just....BURST!!!" Pinkie squealed, causing the thinking Octavia next to her to jump.

"Pinkie!" Octavia shouted, giving her a death glare.

"Do you think we'll have classes together?" Pinkie squealed again, this time in Rainbow's ear. Rainbow pushed her pink friend to the left.

"Considering we all have different majors, yours, party planning, Octavia's, music, and mine, Wonderbolts." Rainbow said, a slight bit of excitement in her voice when announcing her major.

"Wonderbolts has nothing to do with party planning, but music does." Octavia told Pinkie.

"Sooooooooooo, we could be in a class together!" Pinkie said, extremely loudly, causing ponies nearby to give her a disturbing glance.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?" Pinkie said, giving them all looks of confusion.

Rainbow Dash caught sight of a dark blue, purple, and pink colored tail. Is that...Twilight? Rainbow asked herself.
"TWILIGHT?" Rainbow shouted in question.

"Rainbow?" Twilight questioned back, then pushed her glasses up her nose. Rainbow sighed, remembering when Twilight got her glasses again.

"What are you doing here Twilight?" Pinkie asked, then hopped over to Twilight.

"Oh, I was just stopping by my old library to see how Spike is handling things." Twilight replied.

"Oh, ok!" Pinkie said, then grabbed Twilight into the biggest bear hug Rainbow had ever seen.

"How's princessing going?" Octavia asked.

"'Princessing' is not a word." Twilight said, her voice dropping an octave.

"Lighten up, Twilight. The pony was just asking a question." Rainbow Dash said.

"It's...busy..." Twilight muttered.

"I can imagine." Octavia muttered under her breath.

"Oh my dear Celestias! I'm almost late! It was nice seeing you all!" Twilight shouted, then quickly ran away, causing dust to fly up into the three friend's faces. Rainbow Dash coughed as she wiped her eyes.

"Well...that was...interesting..." Octavia muttered under her breath again.

"Come on guys! We're almost there!" Pinkie shouted, the University coming into Rainbow's sight.

It's huge... Rainbow Dash thought to herself, suddenly extremely nervous. The three ponies trotted up the steps to the University booming with students. Rainbow saw freshponies in one corner, sophomares in another. Pinkie waved at just about every single pony she saw. Rainbow and Octavia shared a glance, and they rolled their eyes in sync.

Pinkie Pie pushed open the door, opening up a world of all different types of ponies. Rainbow Dash could feel her legs shaking as she walked inside the gigantic building.

Chapter 2: Blue Haired Beast

Rainbow looked around the building. There are so many ponies! She thought to herself. Pinkie stepped next to her, and Celestia knows what Octavia is doing. A pony rudely bumped into Rainbow Dash. Rainbow Dash shoved the short, small mare aside, causing him to spill all his books. Rainbow Dash smirked in victory. The little mare gave Rainbow a scared glance, then he scurried away.

"What'd you do that for Dashie?" Pinkie asked.

"He was in my way." Rainbow muttered in response.

Rainbow Dash flapped her wings lightly to float in the air. She remained floating for a couple seconds, flapping her wings softly. She examined the social classes of the school. The nerds seemed to be the lowest, while the pretty mares and stallions seemed to be at the top, along with the jocks. Then there where the averages, the wierdos, the goths, and the outcasts.

A mare ran up to Dashie and Pinkie. "OhmiCelestias, OhmiCelestias, OhmiCelestias!!!!!" The mare screamed.

"Err...May we help you?" Rainbow Dash questioned, looking at the mare.

The mare had a green mane and a yellow body. Her cutie mark was a lady bug on a leaf. "Hi! I'm Lady Bug! I'm have the major of Animal and Plant interactions!" The mare informally told the two super stars, who gave eachother looks.

"Are you guys the real Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash!??!!?" The mare asked loudly.

"As a matter of fact-e-o, we are!" Pinkie said, happy to talk to a fan.

"OHMICELESTIAS!!!!!!!! IM GOING TO A SCHOOL WITH THE RAINBOW DASH AND PINKIE PIE!!!" The green-maned pony screamed as loud as she could.

"Um...yeah...lucky you?" Rainbow replied.

"THE RAINBOW DASH AND PINKIE PIE! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!" The mare screamed again, and all at once, Iike a gigantic group of parasprites, mares and stallions from all social class systems of this school ran towards Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie, squealing in joy.

"OMC!!! ITS RAINBOW DAAAAAAAAAASH!" One mare with a blue body and purple mane screamed loudly.

"PINKIE PIE!! OMC, DATE ME!" An obsessed Pinkie Pie stallion screamed.

"WHAT THE BUCK! YOU HAVE TO BE BUCKING KIDDING ME! BUCK, BUCK, BUUUUUUUUCK!" A language obsessive mare screamed.

"Can I have either of you in a bed with me?" A stallion with a pink body and yellow hair shouted loudly, causing Pinkie to give him a disturbed look. Rainbow Dash chuckled. Obsessive pony I guess. Rainbow thought to herself. Although, I can't help but feel extremely awkward over this situation. Rainbow Dash chuckled again, when a whole group of mares shouted,

"PINKIE! TELL US A JOKE!"

"I WILL IF I CAN HAVE SOME QUIET PLEASE!" Pinkie responded.

All at once, all of the ponies in the hallway became quiet. A wave of silent bliss had passed over them all, just to hear Rainbow's best friend tell a joke.

"Well, this is one of my favorites..." Pinkie said, as the crowd erupted into cheers.

"Pinkie! Pinkie! Pinkie! Pinkie!" The crowd called out.

"Ok, ok. Calm down. I'll tell all of you silly-billies."

The crowd errupted into cheers once more.

"What did the pirate say on his 80th birthday?" Pinkie asked the crowd.

"What?" Everyone echoed back.

"Aye matey!" Pinkie responded, then bursted into laughter.

"Pinkie." The whole crowd groaned in sync.

Rainbow Dash giggled slightly at the crowd. Pinkie is the only mare she knows that has that kind of effect on people.


"What is going on here!" A stallion's voice roared. "All of you, are late to class! The teachers have been missing half of their students."

"Sorry, Principle Staples." Another stallion's voice echoed through the crowd, as he stepped out of the large clump of ponies. Principle Staples had a grey body and untamed white hair. His cutie mark was of a stapler stapling together pieces of paper.

The stallion who had stepped up to talk with the principle was the handsomest, hottest, and most greatest looking stallion Rainbow Dash had ever seen. She could feel herself drooling over him. She quickly whipped away the saliva pouring out of her mouth.

The stallion had a very light blue body, navy hair, and gorgeous blue eyes. OhmiCelestia, I am staring at the hottest blue haired beast... Rainbow thought to herself.

Pinkie must have caught Rainbow drooling, because she nudged her hard when the Blue Haired Beast made his way over to Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash.

"You see," He was saying, "These two lovely ladies where giving us jokes and games. But this is all my fault, one hundred percent."

He's taking the blame for Pinkie and I. He's taking the blame for me. Rainbow Dash thought to herself, and she could feel her cheeks turning red.

"How so?" Principle Staples asked Blue Haired Beast.

"I was begging them to show me some jokes and games and answer questions, and they agreed. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have. Please punish me, and not them." Blue Haired Beast said, and Rainbow could feel her cheeks growing redder every second.

"Sir...it wa-" Rainbow Dash began, before Blue Haired Beast shot her a look, telling her not to continue. "Nevermind."

"Thank you Soarin, I appreciate your honesty. There will be an after school detention every Wednesday for the next two months." Principle Staples said, a look of disappointment etched on his face.

Soarin... Rainbow thought to herself. Soarin is the name of the Blue Haired Beast.

"All of you! Get to class!" Principle Staples shouted at the students.

Rainbow Dash trotted away, as a hoof touched her on the shoulder. She turned around, her snout close to Soarin's. She blushed.

"Thank you, Soarin." Blue Haired Beast told her, his hoof still on her shoulder.

"Eh, it was nice of you I guess." Rainbow Dash told Soarin. "But I can take care of myself."

"I'm sure you can." Soarin responded, "But your a girl, and I find that hard to believe."

Rainbow Dash's tempature started to rise. She hated it when stallions didn't appreciate all the work that mares do!

"Gender doesn't prove anything!" Rainbow Dash shot at him.

"Oh, it doesn't?"

"No, it doesn't!"

"Well, talk to society.

"Why would I talk to somepony invisible?"

"Because your going crazy if you think I'm not pissed at you."

"Why the buck would you be pissed at me?"

"Because I just helped someone who didn't deserve it." Soarin ended, and with that, Rainbow Dash walked away, totally pissed and furious.

Celesita damnit! I can't believe I actually thought, that for one second, he was hot. Rainbow Dash thought to herself, as she trotted to Flight History, her first period.

3: RainbowCrash-NOT AGAIN!

Rainbow Dash couldn't believe the nerves of that stallion! Sure, he was hot, but that doesn't even bucking matter anymore! Yup, she was fully pissed out of her mind.

But luckily, Rainbow Dash had the pleasure of having one class with her two best friends, which was math. And math is required for everyone in P.V.U. Yay. I'm so lucky! I get math. Rainbow Dash thought to herself, not knowing how to even do simple multiplication.

"What's the matter, Dashie?" Pinkie whispered, while their teacher, FurryFighter, lectured about his life.

"Some stallion had the nerve to diss me with me being a girl and all!" Rainbow Dash hissed at Pinkie, causing the Mr. Fighter to shoot them a glare.

"Ladies, you should be paying attention. This is a very valuable lesson." Mr. Fighter told the two girls, causing the whole class to turn their gaze at them. Rainbow looked around the class, and guess who was laughing.

Soarin.

Rainbow Dash started shifting around uncomfortably in her chair, when suddenly, it tipped over, causing Pinkie Pie and Octavia to fall down with her.

"What the-RAINBOW DASH!!" Octavia screamed, as she hit the floor, landing on her butt, or as Octavia pronounces it, buttum.

"More like, Rainbow Crash!" Soarin shouted from across the classroom, causing everyone to laugh, even her two best friends and the teacher. Rainbow Dash could feel the pain in her chest. She tried to ignore it, but tears stung in her eyes.

"Rainbow Crash!" Pinkie giggled. "Remember that nickname?"

"It is a mighty fine nickname, as I may add." Octavia said, then giggled as well.

Rainbow Dash got up, then as fast as she could, dashed out of the classroom.


"Ugh, they're so annoying! Rainbow Crash, what genius thought of that name?" Rainbow Dash muttered to herself, walking down the empty hallways.

And then she realized she didn't have a hall pass.

"Ugh, Clelestia hoofit." Rainbow muttered to herself.

My luck today. She thought to herself.

And that's when the Blue Haired Beast walked toward her.

My BUCKING luck today! Rainbow Dash screamed inside her head.

"Hey Rainbow Crash!" Soarin shouted from across the hall. Rainbow tried to ignore the stallion, but with her luck, Soarin just screamed louder.

"Rainbow Crashy-crash-CRASHHH!" BHB shouted louder.

"Leave me alone, BHB!" Rainbow shouted, literally calling him BHB.

Rainbow Dash was now mortified. She placed one hoof on her forehead, and rubbed it lightly. She then stamped her hoof to the floor, causing an echo though the empty hallway.

"BHB? As in, Bunny's Hunting Bugs?"

"Ugh. Forget I said that."

"No can do. That's just too funny."

Dashie turned around, to find Soarin about 10 feet away from her. "What do you want." She asked, then narrowed her eyes.

"Hmmm, well, for starters, I want Chipony."

"Don't we all?"

"Yes, we do."

"What besides Chipony."

"Er...your number?"

Pinkie Finds a Cheese Sandwhich and Rainbow Finds a Nopony

Rainbow Dash stepped up nice and close to Soarin's face, so she could have the pleasure of yelling in it.

"My number? Seriously? That's what you came to ask me?" Rainbow Dash shouted, ticked off.

"Well, what else?" Soarin responded, who had never been rejected by a girl, yet, and he was extremely determined on this particular girl.

"I don't know, how about a 'I want a hoof to the head?' Or 'I want brain damage so I can become and egghead like Twilight?'"

"Both seem like perfect options."

"Ha. Ha. Ha. Now leave me alone."

"How about that number?"

"Hmmm, how do I say this nicely, N-O! What does that spell?"

"YES!"

"Oh my Celestias, you're so stupid."

"Thank you."

"I wasn't being polite."

"I was being sarcastic."

"No one cares."

"So, how about that number?"

Oooo, that movie star smile is temping. Rainbow thought to herself.

"Hmmm, NO!" And with that, Rainbow Dash walked, no that's an understatement, stormed, down the hallway.


"I can't believe the nerve of that pony!" Rainbow Dash muttered under her breath. She ignored her growing feelings for him.

But he is still cute.. she thought to herself, and then pushed it out of her head. She let out a snort of frustration, then slammed her right front hoof on the floor. Rainbow decided to go back to class, hoping Soarin somehow magically didn't beat her there.

And there he was, sitting next to his friend. Rainbow cursed under her breath, then walked to sit in between Pinkie Pie and Octavia.

"Bathroom break?" Pinkie asked.

"Mhm." Rainbow Dash replied, nodding her head.

"Is it that time of mont-" PInkie started to say, and then Rainbow slammed her hoof over Pinkie's mouth. She shot her a death stare, where Octavia giggled next to her

"Whhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?" Pinkie asked, holding the 'a' for about 30 seconds.

Octavia then shot her a death stare.

I need new friends Rainbow thought to herself, then chuckled.

Suddenly, the bell rung, singling class was over. Rainbow flew into the air, threw her front hooves up, and shouted "YES!" Causing the whole class to stare at her.

"Rainbow, come here." Mr. Fighter said.

Rainbow groaned then walked to Mr. Fighter. "What." Rainbow asked, her voice dropping an octave in frustration.

"It is not polite to shout 'yes' at the very end of a class. How do you think that makes me feel."

"Pretty good."

"No, Rainbow, it makes me feel pretty bad."

"Well, do you think that people want to listen to your life?"

"We-"

"No, they don't. They also don't want to listen to math, but math would be better, wouldn't it? You wouldn't be fired then."

"Rainb-"

Then Dashie stormed away, no longer listening to her teacher.


Rainbow Dash caught up with Pinkie and Octavia easily, since she was extremely fast. On the downside of things, she bumped into Pinkie, who was eating a grilled cheese from the cafeteria with one hoof, and holding her books with the other.

Pinkie's books went flying, and they hit a familiar looking pony with a poofy brown main and a yellow body in the head. He instantly turned around, and Pinkie Pie gasped.

"Cheesie?" Pinkie asked in surprise.

"Pinkie!"

"Cheeeeeeesiiieeee!"

With that, the two ponies embraced each other.

"Pinkie! I've been meaning to find you somehow, and I have a question."

"Sure thing, Cheese!"

"Well..." Cheese Sandwhich began, and his cheeks flushed bright red, "Do you wanna...you know...get some food?"

"Get some food? Do you mean like, a date?"

"Yeah..."

"Of course I will, Cheesie Wheesie!"

Pinkie kissed Cheese's cheek, a big, fat, smile plastered on her face.

"Saturday?" Cheese asked.

"Saturday at 6."

"Ok."

Cheese then walked away, and both Octavia and Rainbow Dash had their jaws dropped. The two then shared a look, each with raised eyebrows.

"How...?" Octavia asked.

Rainbow Dash just shook her head in response, just as confused as Ocavia was. Well, I guess it makes sense, I always had the suspicion they liked each other, just, on the first day of college, really?

"Guess who has a date!?!?!' Pinkie asked.

"You." Rainbow replied, her voice lower.

"Guess who doesn't?"

"Me." Rainbow Dash said.

"Me" Octavia said, in sync with Dashie.

"But....how?" Rainbow asked.

"You mad, bro?" Pinkie responded, giggling.

"No, just confused."

"Well, all I know, is I got a date before youuuu!"

"Yeah, we know" Octavia muttered.

"You guys are jelly beans!" Pinkie giggled.

"No, I don't need a significant other to make my life livable." Octavia said.

"I'm with Octy." Rainbow muttered.

"Well, you guys are just jelly beans!" Pinkie mocked.

"I'm not a bean..." Octavia said in confusion.

Dashie leaned over into Octavia and whispered "It is Pinkie's way of jealous."

"Oh." Octavia whispered back.

"Anyways, byeeee!" Pinkie said, then hopped away.

"Well," Rainbow said to Octavia, "looks like Pinkie found a Cheese Sandwhich and we found a nopony."

"Out of all the ponies I know, I never thought Pinkie would get a Coltfriend before anypony else." Octavia replied.

"Like you said Octy, 'We don't need a certificate other to have a good life able.'"

"What? That's not what I said. I said 'We don't need a significant other to make our lives livable.'"

Octavia giggled at Rainbow Dash. Rainbow giggled back. Certificate, man, I'm stupid.

Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes and chuckled under her breath. I need new friends. Rainbow thought to herself again, then chuckled.

5: Fight Training Project

View Online

A few weeks later, Rainbow Dash trotted down the campus, a key hanging around her neck. She trotted up to a door labeled "177" or, also known as, her new dorm that she was sharing with Pinkie Pie. She looked up and around, the cool air biting her cheeks.

Her eyes landed on a familiar colt with a dark blue main and a very light blue body and handsome green eyes. She narrowed her own eyes, half-hating and half-loving that her next door dorm-mate was none other than Soarin Skies.

"Hey, Rainbow Crash!" Soarin shouted loudly, even though it was only the two of them by the dorms.

"Hi Clippers!" Rainbow Dash shouted just as loudly back, getting a response of shock and revenge to cross onto BHB's face. Oh, it's on She thought to herself.

"Some nerve you have choosing a dorm next to mine."

"Some nerve you have choosing a dorm next to mine."

"It's like you have some sort of attraction towards me."

"Oh, please. As if I'd have an attraction to a filly like you."

"Buck you."

"Buck you more."

"Ok, buck me then."

"Nah, I'm not interested in Blue Haired Monsters like you."

"Hey, my hair is beautiful!"

"Donald Trot called, he wants his combover back."

"I don't have a combover."

"You sure about that buddy?" Rainbow Dash mocked, then rubbed her hoof on his hair, brushing it into his face like a combover. Soarin took out a mirror from the pocket of his vest Who keeps a mirror in their vest randomly? and looked at himself, and Admitably Rainbow Dash thought to herself, He doesn't look terrible in a combover.

Rainbow Dash looked at him one more time. Ok..........maybe it is pretty bad She thought again as he screeched at his reflection.

"I have to fix my hair!" Soarin squealed, then ran into his dorm as quickly as possible, slamming the door behind him.


"Nice of you to join us today, Ms. Dash and Mr. Skies." Mrs. Fire said. Spitfire, or as her students knew her as 'Mrs. Fire', was a retired Wonderbolt (Yes, I know she's Rainbow Dash's age, but who cares! This is my fanfic ;)), and knew exactly how to get the students closer together.

"Yeah, how nice." Rainbow squeaked as she walked behind Soarin into the room.

Soarin Skies followed what Rainbow said with a "Sorry, Spitfire."

"It's Mrs. Fire, Mr. Skies." Spitfire said.

"Sorry Ma'am." Soarin replied quickly.

Rainbow groaned as she realized that the only two seats left where right next to each other, which meant that Soarin and her would have to sit together. She slouched as she walked towards her seat and then slouched down in her seat, Soarin doing the exact same thing.

Spitfire walked up to the huge chalk wall on the board. Soarin was busy staring at the mare infront of him, mainly her rear area, when Rainbow shoved him in the shoulder. "Perv." She hissed.

"Trainor hitch." Soarin hissed back.

"Bigbucker."

"Motherbucker"

"Donald Trot."

"Haylorly Clinton."

"Blue haired bee-yotch."

"The clown called, he wants his hair back."

"Why I could just buck you."

"Then do it.

"Ew, no. At least I'm not a blue haired alien."

"At least I'm not a 5 year old girl's birthday party decoration."

"Why I could just-"

"Ms. Dash and Mr. Skies, is there a problem?" Spitfire shouted at them.

"No ma'am." Soarin and Rainbow said in unison.

"Good." Spitfire spat. "As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, I will be pairing you all up with the lucky people you are sitting next to."

Groans erupted from the class, the loudest ones from Dashie and Skies. The two enemies glared at each other, and Rainbow groaned again, then turned away and placed her hand on her propped up hoof.

"I didn't tell you what the project was yet. I think you all are really going to like this one. Dash, Skies, get your sorry rears up here!" Spitfire shot.

Soarin and Rainbow walked up, each of them slouching and pained expressions clear against their tired faces. They glared at each other while walking up. Rainbow purposely bumped into Soarin, pushing him over a little from the unknown impact. Soarin did this back to Rainbow, which went on until the two reached the front of the class.

"Now, what you and your partner will be doing is watching the other person fly." Spitfire started.

"That's it?" Someone loudly interrupted, and the sound of mares and colts talking quickly filled the room."

"I wasn't done. Let me say the boring and the fun part. You will need to keep a journal and record data, but you and your partner have to create a flying routine. The group who come up with the best project will get to preform for the Wonderbolts! How exciting is that?"

The classroom buzzed with excitement, but the mare and the colt felt nothing but worry and hate for each other. 'We'll never finish!' Rainbiw thought. "How exciting...." She heard Soarin mutter from right next to her. She sighed and nodded her head in agreement.
