Celestia, Dash, Soarin and Spitfire.

Princess Celestia walked through Canterlot Gardens with a smile on her face. Thanks to her faithful student she had been reunited with her Sister and her old Colt-Friend. If only harmony could reform Chrysalis or helped Sombre. So many memories.

~500 years ago~

"I am proud to present Rainbow Blast, new Captain of the Wonderbolts and daughter of the great Rainbow Blitzen. In the long legacy of Rainbow's I hope it be ever prosperous. Congratulations Rainbow Blast!" Celestia cheered over the Cloudasseum.

~250 Years Ago~

"I am very proud of Rainbow Light, new Captain of the Wonderbolts, esteemed flier and cherished husband to Aurora Blast. May your Spectrum of talent be long loved and long lived!" Celestia's magically amplified voice cried over Cloudsdale Cloudasseum.

~100 Years Ago~

"I am incredibly saddened to tell all of you Pegasi that Rainbow Blight has passed on, but her unborn child was conceived before her death. The Captainship of the Wonderbolts passes over to the Second in Command, the Fire family. Miss FlightFire shall be your next Captain." A distressed Celestia told the Wonderbolt's in the office of the Cloudasseum.

~18 Years Ago~

"As we all know, Miss FlightFire was INCREDIBLY old and her talent never waned. But in her old age attempting a 400mph dive from that high in the air was bound to kill her. Her daughter, Spitfire, shall be taking over the Wonderbolts. I hope some of you remember Rainbow Blight? Well, her daughter has given birth to a speedy Pegasus, yet passed on during the conceiving Miss Rainbow Dash. You may be in for some Competition Spitfire." Celestia told an unimpressed Wonderbolts Team.

"Wait, you mean Rainbow Blight gave birth to Rainbow Bolt III who conceived Rainbow Dash? That means Rainbow Dash is technically a Wonderbolt. I will think of her as my Captain. The Rainbow family practically formed the Wonderbolts. Rainbow Bolt the first was the Captain and passed it down through the generations!" An excited Soarin cried from behind the crowd.

"EXCUSE ME?! I AM YOUR CAPTAIN SOARIN! SHUT THE HELL UP!" Spitfire shouted angrily.

~Present Day~

"Dear Princess Twilight Sparkle,

It has come to my attention that Ms Dash has become interested in the Wonderbolts on a studious level. I beg you to send me all of your books on The Wonderbolts and their history. Or any books on Pegasi for that matter,

And send Ms Dash to Canterlot next Saturday. Ticket Inclosed.

Yours Sincerely,

Celestia." Twilight read in her head. She thought nothing of the fact Celestia wanted her books, probably just updating them anyways, but the fact she had only sent one ticket. Twilight wondered why it was Dashie.

"Dash, can I speak to you for a second?" Twilight called as Rainbow Dash waved goodbye to her other friend, Shy.

"Yeah sure, lemme just go get Tank." Dash called from the living room of her cloud home, she returned with Tank flying behind her.

"Sup Twi?" She smiled.

"Celestia sent me a ticket for the train to Canterlot on Saturday. She wanted you to go see her." Twilight spoke bluntly.

"Wha... Why?" Dash gaped, eyes and mouth wide open. Her wings blurred into motion as she flew around the house collecting all of the clothes she may need for a trip to Canterlot.

"CALM DOWN RAINBOW DASH!" Twilight called. "I'M SURE IT'S JUST SOMETHING SMALL!"

"You never know!" Dash exclaimed, flying downstairs with a saddlebag full of clothes in her teeth. She put the bag on the floor and collected a saddle bag full of things for Tank.

"Saturday isn't until tomorrow y'know!" Twilight groaned.

"Yeah, and the ticket is the first train. 6AM to be precise!" Dash gave Twilight a look that could have killed her were she not immortal.

~Saturday, 6AM~

Dash boarded the train with a reluctant Tank following in her hoof-steps. She sat down in one of the comfiest seats she could find and closed her eyes. The next thing she knew she was being slapped awake by Whistle Stop, the train conductor. Yawning a sleepy thank you she got off the train and blinked at the sudden light shone in her eyes. Canterlot was... shinier. Weird. Dash looked ahead at the Castle and slowly began the ascent towards Celestia.

~10 minutes later~

"It would've been quicker to fly." Dash thought to herself. She was approaching the main gates when she saw an unexpected White coated Prince ahead.

"Heya Dash, is Twiley with you?" Asked a happy Shining Armour.

"Nah, Celestia wanted to speak to me by myself for some reason." Dash replied sleepily, tottering into a statue of Luna that guarded the drawbridge.

"Oh, well good luck. An official summons always sound worse that it probably is." Shining laughed, the he galloped off towards the station. Dash walked towards the portcullis and was halted by the guards.

"What the hay? It's me, Rainbow Dash. Element of Loyalty, only known producer of the Sonic Rainboom, you know me?!" Dash cried, staring at the guards in her way.

"Sorry Rainbow Dash, my guards weren't expecting you." Celestia's gentle voice called from behind the gates. The majestic mane and coat of Princess Celestia appeared and magically raised the portcullis and the spears of Flash Century and Flash Decade.

"At ease, I'm only a danger to those who harm the Princess or my friends." Dash smirked. She followed the Princess for about five minutes until she couldn't tame her curiosity any longer.

"Princess, why did you summon me here?" She burst out.

"Rainbow Dash, did anyone tell you about your Mother?" Celestia replied, her head held high so Dash wouldn't notice the tears in her eyes.

"Nah, the people at the Orphanage said she died when I was born but that's it." Dash looked at the floor.

"Then you may be shocked, nauseated or even happy at what I am about to show you." Celestia smiled, knowing the latter was not even close to what she would feel.

Princess Celestia opened the door to a Room with Rainbow's almost covering the place.

"What the buck is this?!" Dash covered her eyes with a hoof as the colours blinded her temporarily.

"This is a memorial hall I have created for the Rainbow Family. The founders of the Wonderbolts and your ancestors." Celestia smiled.

"My... Ancestors? I'm descended from the founding Captain of the Wonderbolts?" Dash gasped, clutching her chest as dizziness and breathlessness span her head and disorientated her.

"Indeed. I shall leave you in here for a bit." Celestia grinned, the happiness depicted in her smile betrayed only by the tears in her eyes. Nopony had payed tribute to the Rainbow's in over a decade.

~1 hour later~

Rainbow Dash had been studying her family for a while now, and she had realised how FlightFire and SpitFire had become Captains. But she couldn't understand how her sister would ever be a Rainbow. All of her family had Rainbow manes and blue coats, but her sister had a purple mane and orange coat. Impossible! As Princess Celestia re-entered the room, Dash turned on her for information about her sister.

"Princess, I have a question." Dash started simply, not expecting the answer before the question.

"Your sister, yes? The reason she isn't mentioned, nor will she ever be, is because of whom your mother was with. A pegasus by the name of Floarin. This pegasus was a bit of a mare mater. He got three ponies pregnant. An Earth pony and two pegasi." Celestia frowned, and then turned to face the wall.

"So Scootaloo is only my half sister? And who is my half... sibling?!" Dash exploded, anger and betrayal searing through her heart. Yet she was still curious.

"Somepony you know. A pegasus by the name of Soarin." Celestia grinned.

"No way. No way! NO WAY!" Dash screamed. She lashed out towards the nearest thing and felt magic pulling her away.

"Rainbow Dash. You may want to preserve that. It is your family heirloom." Celestia put Dash down next to it so she could see it properly for the first time. The heirloom was a simple, yet amazing suit. It was a Wonderbolts Captain Suit, embedded with crystal that reflected rainbows in every direction. Dash gaped in awe and tears began to form paths in Dash's fur.

"For… for me?!" Dash breathed in excitement.

"Indeed, you are the true Captain of the Wonderbolts who, I believe, are in Canterlot. It is the off season so now would be a good time to earn that title." Celestia smiled.

"Yes Ma'am!" Dash saluted Celestia. She then picked up the suit and galloped to her room. She stood in front of the mirror two minutes later with a smile on her face and a Rainbow on her chest. As Dash was about to exit towards Canterlot Markets she turned and grabbed the cloak she had worn on the train. It covered her body so she wouldn't earn any glances in the streets.

~30 Minutes Later~

Rainbow Dash was walking past Pegasi Pampering when the Blue mane of Soarin caught her eye. He was sitting next to SpitFire in the Jacuzzi. She entered the building and waited in the waiting room for another ten minutes before Soarin left. She then tailed him for another five minutes until he was going past the back alley of Canterlot. Dash flared up her wings and shoved him into the alley.

"What the Hay?!" Soarin cried out.

"Soarin! It's me! Rainbow Dash, the winner of the young fliers competition and also..."

"My half sister! And Captain of the Wonderbolts!" Soarin finished for her.

"You knew?!" Dash stared at him, daring him to explain.

"I kinda knew about you being the real Captain, but Princess Celestia only told me you were my sister this morning. She then showed me the room of memories." Soarin laughed to himself. Dash laughed with him, then tore off the cloak, dazzling Soarin with the Rainbows.

"Woah! The Captain's Suit!! I'm so happy for you! We should go back to my hotel right away and tell the team!" Soarin exclaimed proudly.

"Yeah, maybe. I'm just pretty sure SpitFire will tackle me and wrestle the suit off of me." Dash stammered nervously.

"Yeah Right. She's been looking to get out of the Wonderbolts since her coltfriend proposed. She'd be delighted." Soarin giggled, Dash thought he sounded a tiny bit Sexy. Then she reminded herself he was her half brother so... Awkward.
