Losing Loyalty

Flight. Something amazing, extravagant, wonderful. Something that most every pegasi are capable of... but there is the slight minority, the ponies that find pleasure in moving beyond the status quo. Whose dream is to touch the sky. Whose dream is to fly. Whose dream is a reality about to come by.

That's the kind of pegasus Rainbow Dash is. Loyal to her friends, loyal to her family... and most of all...

Loyal to the sky.

She could dream again. All those awful doubts and worries were over. She was home at last, to the place where she started her dream, but also the place she knew she couldn't finish her dream. But this was a different kind of dream. Not a goal, ambition, or life purpose... No. It was so much more.

Somepony once told her that a dream was made to be achieved. Then, they were fulfilled. Their destiny was completed. It was all over.

She knew it was all a lie. But it was a lie she fell for, the kind that demanded to be thought about, that was convincing her it was right.

She was too naive...

And she lost loyalty to herself.

Her fear of ending her dream was eating away at her dream. Every day, she would strive for perfection, struggle for flawlessness, practice vigorously for a goal she didn't want to achieve.

She had fallen for their trap.

Flight was no longer her life dream. It was just a mere time-spender. An activity she knew she would never outshine anypony at.

She was a filly without a dash of loyalty...

She was a filly without a dream.
