The Missing Elements

It was another bright morning in Cloudsdale, and Cloud Dash awoke with a start.

"Feather Wish, Feather Wish! Wake up! No flight school today!"

Feather Wish's blue head popped up, her mane in a hysterical mess. "No school!?" Her purple-pink eyes glowing with excitement.

"Yep! For the whole week! It's teacher in-service days!" Cloud Dash jumped up and down. "That means...To Rainbow Dash's!!!"

Feather Wish shot her head down. "O-Oh...Are you sure? Jock and Tumbleweed live out that way..."

"Ah, no worries! Rainbow Dash is waiting outside the door!"

"Wait, what?" Feather Wish and Cloud Dash peered out the window. Rainbow Dash was talking to Rainbow Shine, their mother.

"RAINBOW DAAAAASH!!!" Cloud Dash hurtled out the window to greet her.

"I'll...Take the steps." Feather Wish commented, shifting her wings  shamefully aware of what a terrible flyer she was.

"Rainbow Dash! What are you doing here!?" Cloud Dash ask asked excitedly.

"Your mom said that she and Thunderlane wanted a break from you guys, so she asked if I could borrow you." Rainbow Dash replied with a smile.

Cloud Dash gasped. "SLEEPOVER AT RAINBOW'S!"

Rainbow Dash had a worried look on her face. "Uh...Well...yeah, right...So--who wants flying lessons?"

"MEEE! ME!" Cloud Dash shouted.

"Oh, I'd love to! I want to be just like you someday!" Feather Wish exclaimed, trying to make Rainbow think she really did.

Rainbow Dash smiled with sympathy. "Really? Awesome! I just thought you were more into what Rarity does."

Feather Wish shifted her hooves on the ground. "Oh, I do love making dresses, but I'd rather have my cutie mark in flying, like you!" She gulped.

"Well, that's awesome! Come on, you on you two, race ya!"

The three of them trained all that day, and Feather Wish had gotten a much faster flying rate than she had before! Before they knew it, it was time to sleep.

"A perfect day indeed," Feather Wish thought. "But I should spend time with Rarity tomorrow." and they all fell asleep.
