Derpy In Da Army

The sky gives a magnificent view to all of the individuals below it. Semi-purple with a few clouds hovering above, it is the dream of every talented flyer, every hot blooded Pegasi. Heads held high, the Pegasus Warriors await the appearance of their leader, General Rainbow Dash. Among the hundreds of Pegasi gathered below, stands a smaller, shrewder Pegasus. Clearly not very comfortable with her uniform, Private Derpy couldn’t help but nudge around as she tried her best to maintain her stance. The uniform is too tight, and the not-very-well-done fabric is making her feel itchy. Derpy has been in the army for almost three years now, and she owned only one silver medal, unlike the other Pegasus that earned at least 3 gold or silver medals in 2 years. But Derpy never feel bad or different. She just does what she does and tried to make the best out of it.

     Always causing accidents and knocking things over, Derpy Hooves had been a laughing stock or a class clown in the academy. Derpy is born with imperfect eyes. She has one eye looking at you, one eye looking into nowhere, and can be referred as having ‘’derpy eyes’’. Impossible at aiming accurately, always clumsy, can barely walk in a straight line, Derpy can be a strain the in neck to all the other members of the Pegasus Warriors. But it has always been her dream to soar the skies above, to have the freedom of zigzagging across nations and most importantly, to serve the country as a defender, as a guardian, as a bold Pegasus. Derpy isn’t one of the smartest ponies around. In fact Derpy never had scored more than half the full marks in any school and at any tests. She’s also the type of pony who is easy to trick and pull pranks on since her low sense of accuracy and bluntness made her a great spot for prankers and bullies. Derpy is well accepted at the lower class of the academy, but is often bullied by the higher classes in the army. Derpy is always picked on, bullied and kicked around. Despite that, Derpy didn’t feel hurt or discriminated. Maybe she was too blunt to know that she’s being bullied. Blunt in a cute way.

     It was just about time for Derpy to take off that uniform and scratch away when the sound of horns, loud and clear, where heard. Startled, Derpy stood up straight on all fours and adjusted her oversized Private helmet and tried her best to maintain a serious look. Seconds after the sound of the horns, down swept a flash of light, rainbow-coloured light, blinding the troops for a few seconds. Soon the colours make shape and a well-built, sturdy figure stood before the troops, but not facing them. Back facing the troops, General Rainbow Dash simply turned her head and took a glance at her array of troops. Under the command of Corporal Lightning Bolt, the troops saluted and set their left wing opened, as a way to show respect to their leader. Corporal Lightning Bolt gave herself a facepalm when she saw Derpy opened the wrong wing and accidently knocked the wing of the pony beside her. Desperately shouting silently to the pony she had trained for so long just to do something right, Scootaloo prayed to Celestia that Derpy will realize her embarrassing mistake. Eventually Derpy noticed it and changed her posture and the Corporal breathed a sigh of relief.

   Pegasi!’’ one word from the General’s mouth is tremendous enough to remind the troops who they are and what they are doing here.Start!’’

   Expecting a speech, or a longer speech from the general, the ponies below looked confused but knows well that the word ``start’’ indicates that the Elite Flying Test has been started. That’s why they had been gathered here in the first place. The Pegasi look both excited and anxious, mainly because the passing the test not just gets their further into their career, but also gets the recognition from the great General. Rainbow Dash, being herself couldn’t stand standing still for five minutes while delivering a speech. After all, encouragement and motivation is nothing if you’re well prepared.
