Previous ChapterNext ChapterTHE NEXT DAY AT NOON
Rainbow Dash and Chasing were already at the starting line when the sun reached the peak and both were looking for a challenge to put there day in a good swing. " You ready to get this started Rainbow.?" Chasing had challenge written all over him and his body tensed as the start of the race got closer.
" You know I am," Rainbow Dash was showing off her strong yet elegant wings to all those who were watching the two challenge each other.
" I guess I can't blame your form, it's all wrong, you have your wings tucked in for the best speed." Chasing was writing innocence and Rainbow saw it as a trick to get her to lose and was going to say something when she heard spike and pinkie calling off the rules.
" Remember the rules and play fair you guys." Pinkies voice was somehow more annoying through the speaker as it added to her high pitched rumblings.
" Here are the rules to the race,"
Spike is talking, thank everypony for the forgiveness of what I did wrong
" This challenge was made last night so by Ponyville guide lines we will have a capture the flag like game.It's as easy as get to the cloud first pull a flag and get it back to the finnish line and you win."
Memories of what happened last night flowed into him and with along those memories came the words that he said to Pinkie.
I think it interesting, just like you. Those words stained would stain his mind as long as he never took them back.
"There will be no pushing, kicking, horse play, or spitting." Spike sunk back into the ballon he was riding in and made a quick comment to Pinkie. " Did you here me, I said horse play." He returned to his post to see that all the ponies that had gathered around were staring at him." Well, lets get this started. Three... two... one... GOOOOOOOO!"
Rainbow Dash was off the ground in an instant flying at speeds that most Pegasi could only dream of going. To her dismay, she found that Chasing was yet to even take off but was instead running along the ground." HA, another easy win in the bag."
Chasing found himself thinking about the last night before. ...and so I say, ' I find it interesting, just like you' well perhaps, just maybe, I was flirting with her. It was at that instant when he opened up his wings to the crowd that was watching with disappointed glares. The looks on their faces when they saw them...
" Don't be so sure Rainbow Dash,"Those were the only words she heard before a gold swash went past her at speeds even she couldn't muster. It took what seemed like ages to her before she even heard the sound he made; Even at his speed she could barely hear it the small whistle that his wings made. Before she could even process what had gone down just seconds earlier another flash of gold with a little red went the opposite direction.
" AND CHASING IS OUR WINNER!" Pinkie and spike called in unison seconds after he had landed. Chasing merely took a seat on the ground and waited for something to happen. When Rainbow Dash landed she looked angry, sad, confused, and many other things at the same time.
" H-H-how did you fly so fast! That doesn't make any sense!? How are you wings so big? How didn't you do a sonic rain-boom? Who taught you? Can you teach me? When rainbow finally stopped asking questions she let of a blush while realizing how uncomposed she was and started to try and gain back her normal unimpressed self. " Well, that was good but it wasn't awesome."
" OK, whatever you say Rainbow. For now though I think you, and only you, deserve to know. Lets start how did I fly so fast. Well lets see, my wings are huge..." Chasing unfolded his wings for her to see and she just stared at them... mesmerized. "...If you hadn't noticed and besides from that, I got a decent start. Not my best but decent." Chasing was now retracting his wings and found that the whole pegasi part of the crowd was watching while the other ponies looked at them in confusion. To his consent he also found that Rainbow dash was staring as will. " I was taught by my father, unfortunately he's gone and hadn't been able to teach me every thing. I know how to find out what he was yet to teach me but he made me promise that I would never go that route unless something big happened. Can I teach you. No, thats a family secret and is only told to others under certain circumstances that they gain entrance into the family or are dubbed worthy of knowing which is extremely rare. Like rarer that a new princess in the kingdom rare.
He shot a face at twilight which of whom was to busy comparing his wings to hers to notice. " And for your last question. I didn't do a sonic rain-boom because I was going to fast," his last answer may have been the simplest but he was so proud he didn't care." Unless you have some way of obtaining knowledge that you want to know, you may never know how to do what I know how to do."
Rainbow Dash soon shook of her daze and decided to ask another few question which were surprisingly unexpected. " How are your wings so big and how are they so strong?" Rainbow took the time to noticed that the ballon Pinkie was in was still in the air so she didn't expect to be interrupted.
Chasing took a little time to think about this but finally gave her an answer. " I don't know how there so big, probably runs in the family." At that moment Pinkie showed up right next to Chasing with a wild smile and a new, yet wicked, hair dew.
"WowIveneverseenanyponygosofastyouseemyhairyoudidthatthatwassocoolcanyoudoitagainyouwereallvromvromandthenyouranandIwasalllikehesnotflyingheruninngthatsillyguyisgoingtolossthenyouwereallwhoshandthenyouwon!"(Wow I've never seen anypony go so fast.You see my hair you did that.That was so cool. Can you do it again? You were all vroom vroom and then you ran and I was all like he's not flying he's running that silly guy is going to lose then you were all whoosh and then you won!)
"Yeah, um Pinkie, I was talking to Rainbow dash here soooo yeah" Chasing waited for the mare to take his hint and leave but she sat there and watched. " Pinkie that means that I want to talk to her." Pinkie still sat there without seeming to understanding what he was asking her." That means alone pinkie, this isn't something that I want everypony to hear."When she still didn't seem to understand what he was asking her, he took a little peak at Rainbow Dash to tell her that he wanted her to do somthing.
" Um, dude, she gone, she left when you looked over here." Rainbow Dash was about to break out in laughter since she was indeed correct and Pinkie was no longer where she was.
" What, where did she go?" Chasing was dumbfounded at her sudden disappearance and at how fast she could leave.
" I don't know. She never does anything when in plain sight but if no ones looking, she can basically go anywhere. I doubt even she knows how she does it." Rainbow Dash didn't even bother to look around. She just watched Chasing do it on his own." Ya, you probably wont find her, now what was so personal that you had to tell me alone?"
"Um, I guess it wasn't very personal but still not something I want everypony to hear." Chasing took a little time to look into his past on what he did that led his wings to being so strong." My wings are strong because I fly against storms before me and my dad would go on an adventure. Really gets you goin' " He again unfolded his wings and watch as the crowd, that was for some reason still there, and Rainbow Dash follow his wings." If you want, I can take you out sometime and show you how to fly into big storms safely." Chasing was flapping his wings at the crowd that was now making inaudible sounds of aw from his wings.
" Ya, i'd really like to do that sometime," Rainbow Dash was no sitting tall and proud at her small achievement of being liked by Chasing.
"Well, I got to go and hit the hey, all races end with a good nap in the park. I think its time to put my babies up before somepony gets any ideas. I think i'll see you around Rainbow." Rainbow Dashes' eyes had averted back to Chasing as his wings folded back to his body.
" Ya,ya whatever you say... Wait, I take naps in the park like, everyday. Thats my spot."
" Well then, maybe we can share a tree" Chasing had already started to fly away from where he was at with rainbow when about half way to the park reality hit him
WHAT DID I JUST SAY!? IS THIS WHAT IM GOING TO DO TO EVERY FEMALE PONY IN PONYVILLE BY THE TIME IM DONE HERE?
" I hope she didn't take that to heart"
