Soarin's Ups and Downs
Chapter 10
Previous ChapterMeanwhile in the Wonderbolt HQ, the others were busy gettin ready for heir stay in Canterlot. They even had to prepare for the race at the Derby. All were s up for the big day before flying all the way from Cloudsdale all the way to Canterlot. Soarin had intentionally made an improvement in his ups, even downs. Spitfire, the stubborn team captain, did a few wing-ups before flying to Canterlot, an! also meeting Princess Twilight Sparkle there too. But it was important for a wonderbolt to always stay in shape before a show or race. They were famous ponies and always kept their cool, which made Rainbow Dash a future wonderbolt herself.
"Okay team, better hurry up!!"Spitfire called from the hall.
"Spit, can I stop carrying luggage for awhile. I did it last time", Surprise cried groaning.
"Okay Wave Chill, your turn", she said turning to her teammate.
"B-b-b-b-b-b-b-but-t-t-t-t-t-t-t", Wave Chill said to his captain with a complain.
'No buts, you must do as you're told".
"Chill Wave, I got you", Fire said to him with heart.
"Thanks Fire, at least somepony here doesn't have the mann-", Wave cried using a sophisticated Manehattan accent.
"Wave, I thought I told you not to talk like that",Misty said as she put her hoof over Wave's mouth.
"Guys lets go, we don't want to miss the train, don't we", Surprise said taking one of her teammates by the hoof. All of them were in a hurry, all of them just spent there time slacking off, pretending to act lazy and other crazy things they do and try to hide from their friends. Spit could easily tell what they were actually really doing, she always said that they couldn't hide anything from their own team captain, and never easily tricked. So she gave the team a death stare, which urged them to head out the door.
"Where are they? Aren't they suppose to be here by now?" Pinkie cried jumping around. The pink mare was extremely jumpy, meaning that she was worried about her friends: even if she was nervous. Pinkie walked in circles, twirled a cup around, and after that she instantly fell asleep after waiting for minutes. Her hooves scratched her own mane while she slept like a little puppy.
"Hope they come, I'm getting worried right now", Fluttershy said biting her two hoofs. She always did this when she was worried or scared.
"They'd better, I don't like waiting too long", Rainbow groaned impatiently.
"Hey girls, look over there, It's Twilight's royal carriage, they're here to drop her off from Ponyville to Canterlot", Applejack starred in wonder.
"By, I'll be going now. I'll meet you in Canterlot in 30 minutes", Twi spoke to them while waving bye to them. After the friends waved to her, they took off towards the sky.
"I wish I had a carriage to ride on, ya know, the ones pulled by one of the pegasai royal guards of Canterlot", the orange mare said with envy.
"Come on, we can't wait for the wonderbolts. Guess they are going to have to find their own way to Canterlot".
"I guess we'll have to leave without them".
"All aboard!!" the conductor shouted while ringing the train whistle.
The girls and Soarin headed into the train as the doors were about to instantly close behind them. But the door almost smashed into Soarin's tail by accident. The young wonderbolt didn't notice while he was walking in such a rush. His friends smiled at him when he finally made it on time because they were worried that he wouldn't make it on to the train. The mane 6 wiped the sweat off their faces saying to Soarin that they were relieved.
"Sorry guys if I overslept", he said nervously.
"Hey no worries, we thought you wouldn't make it on time", RD said in her cool voice.
"Dash, when is Twi suppose to meet us in Canterlot?" AJ asked her pegasus friend.
"Didn't she tell you already. half an hour".
"Yeah the rest of my teammates we'll be meeting us in the same location".
" Ya sure Soarin?" Fluttershy questioned him/
"Yes, I'm certain. When it comes to packing for a tour or vacation, we never pack lightly at all. We just have too many suitcases to carry, it drives my brother crazy".
"Oh my, that is sure a lot of work. Wait, are you saying about your brother Wave Chill?"
"Yeah, he's my little brother.Plus we're twins".
"Next stop,Canterlot", the conductor shouted. The other's ear's almost twitched when the conductor shouted through the halls and cars of the train really loud. They then got off the train rubbing their sore ears with their hoofs groaning and complaining about the pain. The train chugged away afterwards, after they boarded off, trying not to handle the pain themselves.
"Hey, is your ear okay",somepony said from the castle doorway. The ponies recognized the voice immediately, it was Twilight Sparkle. Her alicorn wings spread open and she flew down to greet her Ponyville friends. She then touched Soarin' s ear with her hoof gently just to make sure that he was fine.
"Yeah, I'm fine. But it still hurts", the wonderbolt cried out in pain.
"Soarin your ears are fine", the princess said sincere. Twilight hugged the wonderbolt with comfort as he hugged her back as well. A smile returned to his face and they both let go of the hug and continued walking.
"Guess what everyone, you work be staying at the castle". The others were shocked but surprised at the same time when they heard the news.
"Alright", they said in unison.
Each of them expected to spend a lot of time together in Canterlot. But in a few more days, the wonderbolts had to head back to Cloudsdale. They decided to tell them later on in the day that they would be leaving in a few more days. For the past days, it was incredible to spend time with their number one fan RD and her Pony ville friends. They had to make up every mistake back then at the Grand Galloping Gala hosted in Canterlot once a year. The wonderbolts would clearly adore their fans, even when it comes to taking a picture with them, the main members of the team.
Fans screaming, the wonderbolts would sign autographs for their fans as much as they adore them. It was almost time to get back to touring to other places in Equestria. Back to the old times, performances to amaze ponies in the cities in Equestria. Not baring to travel again, they were extremely tired. So when they head back to the headquarters and take a month break. "Shohluld we tell them?" High Winds thought to herself. Maybe we shouldn't tell them just yet. Wind chewed on her hooves as a habit of being nervous.
"Guys get into the castle quickly", Spit said.
"Oh boy I can't believe we're staying at the castle"Surprise cried jumping excitedly.
"Yeah, me too", Spitfire said pretending to look excited.
"Hey Spit, why are your ears drooping?" Rainbow said raising an eyebrow.
"Uh.....................Should we tell them?..........Maybe we should. Guys can we tell you something, it was nice spending time with you and all. But we'll be leaving after spending two nights in Canterlot. We'll miss you dearly", the wonderbolts said.
