Spitfire Wonderbolt Tale.
The flame haired mare, Orange red coat mare tweeted her whistle furiously, with that sound all of the stallions and mares flew down from the sky and stoped down on the pathway infront of her, raising an eyebrow she trotted foward to the pathway after the last few pegasus stopped. "Face attended!" the flamed hair mare shouted to the scouts of Wonderbolt Academy, as she watched the ponys wince from her voice and turned harshly to face her with a blank stare in their eyes. She went to the end of the horizontal line of pegasus ponys that stood on the flyway and started to walk down infront of that line, any of the scouts probably couldnt see her eyes since they were hidden behind her dark purple shades, but behind them were a expression of irritation.
"Do you bunch of rookies now how long it took you give me those thirty laps?" she asked continuing to walk down the lane with an eyebrow raised not even looking at anypony, soon the suprisingly turn to face one, "Well?!" the mare demanded an anwser to a blue and white mane mare and a cutie mark that looked a star that looked like a shooting star. "N-no Spitfire.." the mare answered and the flamed hair mare who was known as Spitfire took off her glassed and got in the other mares face, "Did you just call me by my name during training?" Spitfire growled and put the whistle back into her mouth and blew it and spat it out so it would dangle around her neck again.
"Its yes ma`am! Now give me 5 more laps!" Spitfire ordered and the other mare took off around the area, the commander Spitfire looked at the rest of the wonderbolt scouts and spoke loud, "It took you more than 15 to give me those laps, now if I asked for 200 then more than 15 would be better but other than that, no!"
Spitfire sighed to herself looking down to place a hoof to her forhead then look back up at to the bunch of pegasus and her eyes widened to notice one was missing, "Where is Rainbow Dash?!" she yelled in question and every one winced and all looked down, "Well uh... I heard that she has had no reason to show up."
a scout mare said, this made Spitfire furious and blow her whistle, "Everyone thats enough for today, get out of my sight." with that command everypony zoomed away.
Later that day she sat at her desk with ehr hooves put together starring at her office door, soon to watch it creek open and a rainbow colored mane mare walked through the door with a regretful look on her,"Take a seat Dash." Spitfire stated and Rainbowdash did exactly that.
"You er wanted to see me?.." Rainbow asked lightly and Spitfire took off her glasses, sat them down on her desk with her eyes closed keeping the silence for a moment.
"So you think your hot stuff huh?" she asked with her eyes still closed not wanting to open them yet,
"No Ma`am, why would you ask me that?" Rainbowdash responded,
"Dont play stupid Dash, you skipped out on training today I almost didnt notice"
Silence was shared between both of the mares in the room.
"Aparently you didnt have a reason eh, you think you know all about being a Wonderbolt dont you?"
"Well I didnt say that, I mean come on you see what I can do right?! Im amazing no other pony can keep up with me." Rainbowdash responded with a pout in her voice.
"True but that doesnt mean you are better than them, they are not inferior to you and you are not superior!" Spitfire stated.
"Why are you always this way, why cant you ever be you know.. Relaxed." Rainbowdash whispered looking down to the ground, "I mean come on, you see me pushing my self to great lengths every day always in first to finish my laps, push-ups everything and your getting mad over one little day of me not training?" Rainbow looked up at her commander and frowned, "Im pretty sure you use to be a Wonderbolt scout yourself am I right?"
Spitfire smirked and finally opened her orange hues to look at the scout, "You know something kid, you remind me of alot like.. well me when I was a scout." she stated and got out her chair and trotted around to Rainbow and smirked, "I didnt go to alot of training sessions you know why?" she asked with a raised eyebrow and a smile, "Um no?" Rainbow said kinda scared now.
"I was really fast back in my training days, I was usually first one to complete my laps and other things somtimes not, when either Soarin,Blaze or Misty might have finished but thats beside the point."
she sighed closing her eyes again, "You really wanna know why im not relaxed or chill or why i act this way to you all, well ill tell you a little story Dash." the firey maned mare opened her eyes again to look Rainbow in hers with her smirk back. "My story.."
__________________________
The final lap was at place, this final full circle and I was inches ahead but not far from Soarin, Blaze and Misty and the problem was that Soarin was right on my tail, litteraly.
'Oh no you dont, im winning this time Soarin.' she thought to herself and closed her eyes tight seeing the finish line a few more inches away and Soarin was neck to neck with her, almost there, Im gonna Wi-, "You know your really cute when your serious."
Soarin whisped close as he flew next to me and i felt myself slow down at those words with a blush spreading across my face. Soarin finished his 200 laps first then Misty and Blaze zoomed past to finish theres also, causing me to finish last (Between that group.)
Panting heavily looking down to the fly lane, sweat dripping down from her mane, trying to catch her breath, Soarin Galloping near and leaning his head down next to hers, "Aw that was a good try."
Soarin said and kissed her cheek which made spittfire blush more, "Damn you Soarin, you know that last lap was mine." she said with a pout, "A good Wonderbolt on a mission doesnt get distracted by little compliments, even if it was the truth." Spitfire looked up at him and he winked and trotted away.
'Did he Just say.. he must be playing with me, yeah thats it.' she thought to herself but her inner thought was soon broken by a loud whistle, "Firespit, I said called for Face Attention, what are you doing?!" the commander yelled to her and she looked behind her with a little frown, "S-sorry." even though Firespit wasnt her name she wouldnt dare challange that Mare.
"Well.. Im very proud of you ponies, for completing this challenge like it was nothing." the commander said with a smile looking at all of us, "You should all be gratefull for what im about to say, you all can take the rest of the day off if you wish."
Everypony cheered at that sentence and some who were friends got together and walked away guessing talking about their plans for the night, I did that too and got with Misty as we walked away to get these sweaty outfits off and before then came Blaze and Soarin laughing until they got next to us, "Im so ready for tonight." I said and Blaze and the other agreed I heard the commanders voice.
"Firespit hang on a moment." she said and I winced, Soarin, Blaze and Misty stopped and gave me worried looks and i smiled at them with a kind of 'Go on ahead,ill be okay', look and they nodded and continued on and I turned around to face the commander.
Once everypony was out of sight she trotted over to her commander and looked up at the tall pegasus, her orange mane whistled through the air; her dark purple shades were off, her bright orange hues stared down at her wich made her feel small.
"You know Firespit, I not entertained at what jus happened at the last lap." the commander raised an eyebrow at me, "Mind explaining to me what happened?" she asked an I gulped and looked down,
"Well I-"
"Didnt your mother teach you to keep eye contact when your talking with someone?" she asked,
Looking up with a pout I sighed, "Well I kinda...got distracted Ma`am.." I said softly and I heard the commanders hoof stomp the ground, "Distracted? Distracted?!" she said with a laugh, "Do you know what distracted gets you in Equestria Firespit?!" she asked demandely, "M-my name is Spitfire..." I said lowly looking down again and I heard her snort, "You telling me what to call you now Firespit? Your pretty determined to make sure to get your name right, to bad you werent that determined on that last lap, distracted my flank!"
Closing my eyes tightly shut feeling my self about to shed tears, I held them back looked up at her with a harsh stare and she returned the same kind back at me, "Thats determination in your eyes, I like it, now use that and give me one more wide lap around and you can leave, now!" the commander yelled and I growled and zoomed off around the area to complete my lap as fast as I could.
I was suppose to meet Soarin and the others at restaurant but I was in no mood so I zoomed on home, slammed my door closed and climbed into my bed, placing my head into my pillow and screamed into it, letting tears fall from my eyes, down my muzzle onto the pillow. I kept that up until the point I cried myself to sleep.

Spitfire Wonderbolt Tale.
The door bell rang countless times from what I could hear which caused my ears to twitch to the sound, so I got out of bed to go to the door and push it open with my hoof. "Don't you know what time it is?" I asked the pony standing infront of me, my eyes were only half open I couldnt tell who it was. "Yeah according to Celestias sun and my phone it is like three in the afternoon," the mystery pony stated,"Your gonna sleep your whole life away or something?" By now I knew it was Blaze, Blaze was like my sister and twin in someways since she pretty much has the same orange-yellow coat and red-orange mane but the only difference was our hue color,hers blue, and mine were orange. Huffing to myself I wiped my eyes finally able to open fully to see my twin smiling brightly at me, "Well come on in Blaze if you want to," I mummbled,"My home is your home." I felt like something dry was sticking to my cheeks but I didnt know what it was,"Well I was just comming over to get you to go shopping," Blaze stated,"Spitfire is that dryed up tears on your face?"
Tears? Oh no got to find something to dry them, "Tears what tears," I responded nervously turning my face away so she could not see them, "I dont know what your talking about Blaze." Blaze trotted over infront of me and used her wing to lift my chin up so she could look at me,"Spitfire..were you crying?" Taking my face back from her wing I sighed,"It doesnt matter sis," I said softly went over to the bathroom to turn the hot water on in the sink and used to whipe away the tear stains on my face,"See..what tears?" I said comming out of the bathroom looking at Blaze seeing she had a worried look on her face.
Going over to get my goggles that I had sat on my desk and I put them on top of my head keeping the lenses off my eyes for now,"Why do you always wear those even though were not at practice," Blaze asked curiously with her head tilted to the side,"Dont those get irritating always being on your head?" I stuck a tongue out at my twin keeping my left eye open and right eye closed, "Nah it sort of fits my style," I said proudly,"It just does you know?"
Comming out my house I trotted along the sidewalk with my eyes closed, a smile on my face, humming a little tune to myself, and bobbing my head side to side. Blazed sighed loudy and poked the back of my head with her hoof while flying a few inches away from me in the air, "Why do you live in ponyville instead of cloudsdale?" she asked,"Don't you know theres way more Pegasus ponies there than in ponyville?" I frowned at the question and stopped in my tracks and Blaze did the same, closing my eye for a moment and looked back up at her also noticing how Blaze`s ear dropped a little, "I know that Blaze but its more calmer here and besides the Pegasus there are down right cruel," I snorted at my own statement,"First you have the commander and if not that you have the pegasus up there just down right making fun of you." Breathing in and out softly I kept my head high and trotted on,"Notice my flank Blaze," I said with a growl,"Anything in paticular thats suppose to be there?"
With that question Blaze went silent and the silence was kept until we reached Ponyville Mall, once we got to where we were going it seemed like we might have got the directions wrong because we ended up at an ordinary clothes store,"Oops I think we were suppose to make a left at Hoof Rd," I said looking up giving Blaze a sorry smile and she shook her head, "Well Ill guess well make this work for now im to lazy to go find the mall." So me and Blaze went inside the store, and looked around at all the hats,sunglasses,scarfs, and boots, "Hey Spitfire, dont I just look sexy in these?" Blaze asked and I turned around to see her wearing red and orange polkadotted socks,"Oh sweet Celestia, your into those things as well, honestly i dont see what so charming or sexy about those," I said with a little laugh, not to put her down but she did look adorable for putting them on anyways,"Your such a dork Bla-"
I stopped my sentence only to find a sunglass rack with one row filled up with dark purple shades they almost looked like the one the commander wore during drills, I looked closer at them and noticed a image in the lenses and it was the commander! In my eyes it looked like she was standing right behind me so I turned around fast to notice no one was there but when i looked back at the purple shades the commander was still standing behind me, "Look at your self Firespit," she said with a growl,"Your weak, youll never be a true Wonderbolt, Celestia you dont even have your cutie mark yet and your pretty much a grown mare!" The Commander yelled harshly at her and yet nobody else in the store seemed to notice.
"L-leave me alone.." I whispered under my breath.
"Daw are you about to cry?"
"No im not going to cry!" I yelled back even though it was the truth, it didnt matter if she wasnt there she still had power over me.
"Yes your are, crying is a weakness.. and I dont except weakness in my academy or the Wonderbolts."
"Shut..up.."
"Heres an Idea how about you just quit the Wonderbolts?!"
"I Said Shut up!" with that loud scream I whipped around and pulled in my hindlegs and kicked them out shattering the glasses and knocking out the glasses whole rack to the floor. "What the buck lady?!" I heard the casher register mare scream my way but i didnt pay it no mind, I shivered, tears ran down my eyes, I couldnt move,"Spitfire was wrong?" Blaze asked with a whine in her voice as she got close to me and place a wing on my back but I jerked away from it and and moved away from her and every one else, I saw a few ponies including Blaze come near me,"Spitfire calm down I think your having a panic attack, you have to calm down." Blaze said getting closer but i just back away as far as I could before a wall stopped me.
"Stay back damn you," I mummbled,"I warning you all motherbuckers!" I screamed at them but the screaming made me light headed and made me tremble a little,"Stay back!" I yelled and galloped out of the store, spread my wings far and pumped them a few time until I was in the air soaring away.
I felt sick and I wanted to get away from it all, my vision was getting blury the higher I went, into the clouds and past Cloudsdale and I didnt know where I was going.
If im so pathetic then why do I even... my vision finally blurred out and I stopped flapping my wings causing my to fall back down as a rapid pace, Sticking a hoof out infront of me as I fell. I was giving in, maybe im not strong enough, maybe im not fast enough, and maybe im not Wonderbolt material. It was only a matter of time before gravity would smack me down hard onto the road or wherever I might end up falling at, My wings were tired my body was to weak to do something, Guessing my time had come i felt my self hit something hard. That was it, it was over, "Spitfire... Spitfire!" I heard a mare pony call out, I opened one eye to see the back of a mares light orange hair, I couldnt respond, looking over seeing two wings flapping. Somepony caught me..., with that thought I passed out.
My eyes flashed opened and I gasped lifting my head up from the pillow that I was apparently sleeping on, What just happ-, before I could finish my train of though I felt a pair of hooves wrap their selves around my neck and was pounced back on the bed, My eyes widened as I heard Blaze crying into me and I patted her back with my hoof,"You idiot! You idiot... what were you thinking!" Blaze cried out to me and I had a confused look on my face,"Blaze what are you talkin abo-" my head started to spin with a flashback of what just happened, me kicking over the rack, flying high into the air, falling to my death, and.. an orange maned pegasus catching me.
"Wait, you caught me?.." I asked confused pulling back from her and getting out of the bed
"Caught you? I was no where near you when you were falling."
"Then How did I get back to your house if you didnt catch me?" If she didnt catch me..then who did?
"I dont know how but my doorbell did ring while I was pacing around in here worried and went I went to answer it, there you were passed out on my doorstep and I dont even know who put you there if someone caught you." Blaze said and looked at me with sadness in her eyes, sighing rubbed the back of my mane with my hoof and sat on the floor where I was and looked up at Blaze, "Weird.." I heard Blaze sniff and saw her brush a tear away,"I don`t care who caught you, all I care is that you are alright."
After she hugged me a few more times we got out selves together and just talked about what happened,"So what happened in the store Spitfire?.." She asked and I looked up to her and frowned a little bit then looked down at the ground,"Well I dont think you would beilieve me but, I saw the Commander in the sunglasses and I know it might sound crazy but I did and she just went off on me about how weak and am and about me not having my cutie mark yet and junk." Blaze sighed and looked away and spoke with a growl in her town,"She has been getting to you, shes been pressuring you hasnt she?!" Blaze yelled and looked back at me with hate in her eyes,"All because of her, shes driving you mad."
My ears dropped and I whined looking at her,"Sister dont worry about it okay?" I pleaded to her but that seemed to only upset Blaze even more,"Forget about it, you couldve died today! You know what listen what ever she is telling you is not true you hear me?" Blazed stated but I sighed and locked eyes with her and got back up,"It is the truth Blaze!" I yelled back in frustration. "What kind of pegasus am I, Im weak... not strong, my emotions are easily tampered with and I always cry Blaze!" I continued to yell, not really at her but most of it was at myself. "Look at my bucking flank Blaze, I dont have my cutie mark," I turned around and showed her both sides,"You,Soarin,Misty and other pegasus ponies have been got their cutie marks.. except me."
"You want to know why I dont go up to Cloudsdale like that anymore? It is because I was always a target because everypony else has their cutie marks except me and they thought it would be cool to make fun of and bully me because I didnt have one and even now they still do it," I sighed softly and looked away,"Im to grown to be pushed around but that doesnt stop them from whispering behind my back..Let me tell you of how hard my life has been."
"You leave me alone! All of you think your something just because you have cutie marks?!" I screamed at the other pegasus ponies.
"Come on squirt, dont you know what these stand for, it means were better than anyone without them, which would be you." the pony said and rushed over and used his head to knock me over.
I tried getting back up but was on succesful into being knocked over again
"Theres no room for you, and I heard you always wanted to be a Wonderbolt? Ha! Whatever blank flank." A different pony mocked.
"Go on get out of here!", "Yeah No room for you!", "Blank Flank!"
Ill show you all that wrong one day...
Tears ran down my cheeks and muzzle and Blaze had her hooves wrapped around me comforting and I placed ny face in her hair shivering. "Spitfire...your a great pegasus and one day will make a great Wonderbolt." Blazed whispered to me and sighed hiding her face into my shoulder.
