Lunar Rainbows

A few months have passed, Rainbow Dash and Luna hung out every couple of days, sometimes at Dash's home, sometimes at the Canterlot castle. This time around everyone is preparing for the long awaited event, the Grand Galloping Gala.

"Are you all ready to go girls?" Twilight asked as she walked out of her library wearing her Gala dress.

"Ah think we're all just dandy Twi, lets hit it." AJ said putting on her hat.

"Rarity, do you think that you could get some more stallions to pull our carriage again like last year?" Twilight asked.

"Already taken care of dear, I've got four stallions pulling it as we speak." Rarity pointed to the four stallions pulling the carriage up next to them. Rainbow Dash was the first to jump on.

"Come on guys! Lets get a move on!" She yelled out the door.

The rest of the mane 6 got inside while spike jumped onto the seat out side to steer the carriage.

"Since when do you get so excited about formal gatherings?" AJ questioned. (And for those who don't know, AJ is Applejack)

"I just- uhhhh... I want to see the Wonderbolts again this year." Dash said looking away knowing that wasn't it.

"You do know they probably won't be at the gathering this year right? They have a big performance coming up in Phillydelphia." Fluttershy spoke up.

"Yeah, I know all about it. You know, there is still a chance they will be there." Dash said back. Everybody looked at Pinkie Pie for a moment, noticing she hasn't said anything yet. She Was staring sternly down at her dress.

"Something wrong darling?" Rarity asked. She continued to stare at her dress for another moment before speaking.

"There's no candy corn." She said quietly.

"Sorry dear, I didn't haven any left, I hoped you wouldn't notice." Rarity replied.

"THEN YOU GO OUT AND GET MORE!" She screamed back. (Not really rage like, more her funny way, if that makes sense) Twilight sighed.

"Pinkie, would it help if we stopped and got some on the way there?" She said. Pinkie pie's ears propped up.

"Yes! Yes it would! Because I don't think this dress is completely right without candy corn, because candy corn is great for design, but it also tastes good! I'm not sure if-" Rainbow Dash groaned and covered her ears as Pinkie Pie continued to blabber on about candy corn.

After a long annoying ride, the mane six finally arrived. A few minutes in, Rainbow Dash spotted Luna waving her over to where she was standing. Dash started to run over then stopped. She turned back for a moment.

"Hey girls, I gotta for a minute."

"What for?" Twilit asked.

"Oh you know, things to do, ponies to see, look for the Wonderbolts." Dash said as she turned and ran back towards Luna.

"Hi Luna!" Dash said as she skidded to a stop in front of Luna.

"Hi Rainbow Dash. Did you have a pleasant trip here?" Luna asked. Rainbow Dash frowned for a moment.

"Candy corn. Nothing but candy corn. All CANDY CORN." Dash said impulsively.

"Ermm... Am I missing something? Did you want candy corn?" Luna asked suspiciously.

"Sorry, long story, no I don't want any candy corn." Rainbow Dash said. The two went upstairs in the castle to check out the "horderves" as Prince Blueblood calls them. Appetizers in other words. A few hours of meeting new ponies, trying new activities, and...well...doing fun shit, Luna and Rainbow Dash took a break and went out into the secluded castle gardens.

"Wow...THAT was a fun night!" Rainbow Dash said leaning up against a tree. Luna sat down next to Dash.

"It most certainly was. Dash, I'm glad I became friends with you, these past months have been so fast, if it weren't for you, I might have gone insane." Luna said deeply.

"Not a problem Luna, tell ya the truth, I'm glad I met you too, I don't have very many pegasi friends aside from Fluttershy, but ah, you know, she isn't my type."

"I understand Rainbow Dash, you are the energetic type." Luna said looking at Dash. Once again she just happened to glance into Dash's eyes. Suddenly the odd feeling she still couldn't describe returned. She looked away quickly.

"Well this has been a great night, but I should go, my sister is expecting me to help mingle with more ponies." Luna said getting up and looking towards the castle.

"Oh...well ok, I guess I'll see ya soon then. Saturday?" Dash asked.

"Saturday it is, good night Rainbow Dash." Luna smiled and walked away.
