Flash Sentry hasn't had it easy. He's been a blank flank much longer than any of the other fillies and colts. His time in flight school hasn't been easy either. Not only does he crash in pretty much any race that isn't a straight shot, he's been tormented by a bully that has been assigned as his year-long racing opponent.

Thankfully, his home life is fairly ordinary, but with a widowed unicorn father, learning how to live and grow as a pegasus hasn't been easy.

However, when his scientist father has a sudden kickstart in his research, Flash's life starts to take a turn. He'll discover more about himself and his nature than he ever knew, and learn just how much like his mother he really is.
