Chapters Later that day, a colt with a black coat and a light blue mane named Thunderlane came over to Derpy and I. He was calling us names like calling Derpy an ‘Idiot’. Thank Celestia that he didn’t know who I was at first, but then he asked me for my name.
“And what’s your name?!” said Thunderlane, pointing a hoof in my face.
“Umm,” I said quietly.
“Oh, her name Crash Landing!” shouted Derpy.
“Crash Landing? What kind of name is that?”
My eyes started to tear up when he said that, my name to special to me. When I was born, I went nameless for a week, but my parents found out I had AP, which meant I was accident prone.
Thunderlane’s taunting never died down. Every single day of flight camp he teased me, calling me ‘Loser’, ‘Klutz’ and ‘Trip-and-Fall Filly’.
The next day I woke up in a hospital bed. The heart monitor beeped slowly. I opened my eyes and saw Derpy, Fluttershy and Rainbow standing in front of me. The three fillies smiled nervously at me.
I felt a sharp pain in my wings, which I were lying on. They were wrapped up tightly with bandages.
My friends moved to the sides of my bed as I saw two figures walk up to me.
It was the main camp counselor and Thunderlane.
Thunderlane’s eyes filled up with tears as he approached me.
“I am so sorry, Crash.”
“I hope you are. But, you are forgiven.”
He came up to hug me.
“Thank you so much. You know what?”
“What?”
“Your name suits you.”
I smile appeared on my face, it had disappeared for more than a week or two.
I was in the hospital for about a week, but my wings were still bandaged up.
When I went back to camp, Rainbow Dash, Derpy and Thunderlane had to carry me back to the cloud layer.
The rest of camp was so much better.
No bad thoughts and I didn’t have to fly because my wings were still bandaged.
I am a volunteer at my old flight camp, teaching fillies and colts about flying safety.
Rumors and Crushes at School
Finally, the school year came back around. Derpy and I went to CSMF, and surprisingly, so did Thunderlane.
Thunderlane and I became good friends; sometimes he was a bit of a jerk, not often though.
Derpy started to spread rumors that Thunderlane and I were fillyfriend and coltfriend. I was so mad at her!
Apparently, Thunderlane did have feelings for me, and he sang a song for me. I turned him down multiple times, since I already had a coltfriend.
Apparently, Thunderlane did have feelings for me, and he sang a song for me.
I turned him down multiple times, since I already had a coltfriend, Flicker, a unicorn pony.
On the last round, Flicker was the seeker. Thunderlane and I were hiding on the third floor of my house, were my bedroom was. Flicker was on the first floor.
I hid in my closet, when Thunderlane came in there too. It was really awkward, since the closet was pretty small.
Thunderlane trapped me in the corner and kissed me straight on the lips. I kissed him back and I make a horrible mistake. We made out.
Flicker finally found us, making out in my closet. I saw the horrified, angry, sad and disappointed expression on his face.
He ran out of my house, which was 1,000 feet of the ground.
Tears were pouring out of his eyes.
Flicker levitated himself down to his house, which was on the ground, underneath my house.
This story begins the summer after I got my cutie mark, a backward sixteenth note with two squiggly lines, and the summer before I met my two best friends, FireRose and Princess SkyCake.
It was a normal summer day for me. The sun was out and it was my first day at flight camp, which was a sleep-away camp. My mom flew with me there and I said goodbye. The first ponies I saw were Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy and Derpy.
The three pegasi were my closest friends at the time. Derpy went to my school last year, The Cloudsdale Music School for Fillies, which is a boarding school I teach at now in the present.
Rainbow and Fluttershy, well I don’t really know what school they went to. Us four ponies looked around the camp, and saw lots of ponies we knew.
I just wanted to get out of this cruel, sad world. I wanted to be free from his countless name-calling. I just wanted to crawl into a ditch and die, which is what he actually told me to do.
That day was the worst. That is when it pushed me over the limit.
That day was sunny, like every other day. When we had free time, Rainbow Dash was doing a race, and Fluttershy was helping by holding the start flag. Both of them got their cutie marks.
I was sitting by myself that day, until Thunderlane came up to me. He teased me a bit more, until he said “Why don’t you just crawl into a ditch and die? You aren’t needed here.”
That is when he pushed me over the limit. I was done, done with Equestria.
I got up from where I was sitting to go lie down on a separate cloud and sob. The bad thing is that Thunderlane followed me over to the cloud. He started to pluck out my feathers on my wings.
One by one, each of my feathers were plucked out. I didn’t care though. It was better than his taunting and teasing. Every feather had blood on it, I still didn’t care. Yes, it hurt but nothing bothered me. When Thunderlane left, I barely had any feathers. I just lay there, in the hot summer heat. Nopony saw me there.
I was on the cloud for a few hours, from noon until dinner, when they couldn’t find me when they did role call for dinner. They sent a search group to go through the whole camp. When they found me, I was out cold.
