Princess Celestia's sun rose high in the sky, showing it's bright light to the city of Cloudsdale. Pegasi began roaming the streets, with each passing moment, more had appeared. All the way to the west of the city, stood a 3 story tall mansion bigger than the City Hall itself. Its rainbow waterfalls flowed from the top to the bottom. Its gates were closed shut with a strong lock, making sure no intruder gets in.
Inside the cloud mansion were many rooms. But the second floor is where it gets interesting. Inside one of the rooms, a pale blue pegasus mare with a short colorful rainbow mane was sound asleep. In the other side of the room was a white pegasus with a lighter rainbow mane who was asleep as well, until...
"WE'RE SO DEAD!", a mare screamed. The pale blue and white pegasi shot their eyes opened, they heard frantic footsteps coming towards the room leading with a hard knock on the door. "Spectrum! Colorwind! GET UP!", the mare trotted away from the door as fast as she can to the other rooms to alert the rest. "Ugh, why does she have to be so worried about everything?", Spectrum said as she looked at the time, "Mom and Dad won't be expecting us in another thirty minutes! Its not that late!"
"Yeah but, we do have to share the bathrooms", spoke Colorwind, raising her white hoof over the blanket to get up. "And you kinda take forever in there", Spectrum glared at her sister as she stood up , blowing away a piece of her hair as she began to walk towards the bathroom."Not as much as Bolt", she shot back, "And besides only 5 more days until we switch room partners, you won't have to deal with me for a whole month, but you will have to deal with Shooting Star", Spectrum put her hoof on the bathroom door and turned it to get in. Once she was inside, she looked back at Colorwind, "And good luck with that", she said as she smirked and closed the bathroom door.
Colorwind sighed and sat on the nearest chair as she waited for her sister to finish. "TEMPEST, BOLT, ICE, WAKE UP!", yelled the mare who was by the name of Shooting Star. Tempest closed his ears hard as he can once he heard his sister. "Sometimes I wish she had a mute button", he said and looked over at the two other colts, who both nodded in agreement. "Just because she's the oldest doesn't mean she gets to boss us around", Ice Storm muttered. "The feeling is mutual", Bolt agreed and walked towards the bathroom.
Tempest went wide eyed as he watched his brother approach the bathroom door. He zoomed off the cloud bed and stopped in front of Bolt, who was surprised at his brother and also slightly annoyed, "What the heck Tempest!", he scowled. Tempest looked at him with a displeased expression, "You were the first one to use the bathroom yesterday, remember? It's my turn!", Ice Storm sighed as he watched his brothers argue, "Here we go again".
Shooting Star was back in her room brushing her blue mane very neatly as she looked at the time with concern. Behind her was another mare. Who's mane and coat was the same color as her father's, but her mane shaded from from the top to the bottom , and had the same shape as her mother's, except it was a little longer. "Glide, why aren't you getting ready?", Shooting Star asked. Glide glared at her sister with annoyance, she got off the chair she was sitting on and opened her wings, which were sparkling with cleanness. She closed them back and said,"You woke me up so early I was already getting ready while you were telling the rest to get up". She sat back on the chair and waited for her sister to finish.
"At least I'm being the responsible one, unlike you-know-who", Shooting Star said while she put the last finishing touches on her mane. Glide chuckled, knowing who she was talking about. "Well at least she's more fun than you", Glide said and walked out of the room, Shooting Star watched as her sister left and looked at her with menace. She then looked at the Wonderbolts poster that was next to her mirror. "Oh you'll see who's more fun when I succeed", she snarled. "You'll see".
Glide walked through the hall and saw Spectrum and Tempest coming out of their rooms as well, she grinned and walked towards Spectrum. "So I'm guessing you finally came out", she said playfully. "Shut up Glide", Spectrum defended. Glide giggled as she walked with her brother and sister. As they were talking, Bolt was the next one to come out. Spectrum, Tempest and Glide stopped in their tracks as their jaws dropped.
Glide: What...
Spectrum: No way
Tempest: That's impossible.
Bolt glanced at his siblings with a perplexed look. "What?", he asked. "What?", he was about to say something else until his twin sister, Glide, cut him off. "There-there-there is no way you could have gotten out of there before Colorwind and Ice!". Bolt sulked at what Glide had said, while the others were laughing extremely loud, too loud. "He-he-he probably saw a spider in there!", Tempest cackled as he referred to his brothers elegant ways. "You would be scared too!", Bolt shot back, but they didn't seem to listen.
A few minutes later Colorwind, Ice Storm, and Shooting Star came out of their rooms to see what all the commotion was about.
"Why are you guys laug-", Colorwind tried to say but then realized what they were laughing about when she saw Bolt. "Oh". Colorwind and Ice Storm both cracked up as they understood what was happening. Even Shooting Star joined in the laughter, But it all ended when a certain orange pegasus appeared up the stairs. Everypony became quiet as the mare walked towards them.
They all lined up from youngest to oldest. And stood straight without making a sound-except Spectrum, the one pony that will never listen. Spectrum sighed, "Great"

Chapter 2: Be Quiet Spectrum!
Spectrum looked at the mare with a bored expression. She looked down as the mare came closer. Why do we always have to do this?,she thought to herself. The pegasus mare looked sharply at each and everyone one of the pegasi, Until she finally walked back to the front and smiled, "Good Morning future Wonderbolts", she said. "Good Morning Aunt Scootaloo", they all said in unison. Scootaloo spoke again,"I hope you all had a nice sleep, but your slumber is over now, your parents await"
As Scootaloo walked foward down the stairs, the rest had followed, each in a line from youngest to oldest. Ice Storm, who was 12, was the first one in the line, and was the blank flank of the family. Colorwind, who was the second youngest of the group, was 15, and was behind Ice Storm. Next came Glide, even though she was the same age as Bolt, she 'claimed' she was born first, which made her the third and Bolt the fourth. But these two 18 year olds didn't put a fuss when they're around their parents.
The 5th one was the mischievous Spectrum Light, being 21 years old, she is expected to be something big, but unfortunately, that is not on her mind. The 6th came the hot-headed Tempest, he is only one year older then Spectrum, making him 22. And finally came Shooting Star, the last and oldest of the line, playing isn't really her middle name, and tries hard to impress her parents, even if she is 24. If only Spectrum doesn't keep messing everything up.
The pegasi came down the stairs and into the huge dining area. Spectrum whispered something behind Tempest ear when Scootaloo wasn't looking, "I don't see why Starlight, Andromeda, and Orion don't have to do this, but WE do", Tempest nodded in agreement as he took a chair and sat next to his sister. "But they are not destined to be Wonderbolts, we are".
Spectrum sighed as she waited for her parents to come. Scootaloo looked back at the pegasi, who were whispering something to each other, she turned to Glide, Bolt, Tempest, Colorwind, Shooting, Ice Storm, and finally stopped at Spectrum, the most 'lovable' one of the family. She sometimes showed sympathy to her, knowing what she's going through. Why did you have to do this Rainbow, why? Spectrum noticed that her aunt was staring at her for an unpleasantly long time. "Uhh, Aunt Scootaloo, I don't mean to be rude, but why are you staring at me?", she asked.
Scootaloo came back to reality when her niece's voice went through her ears. "Wha- oh no, I wasn't staring, I was just..uh..I was just....I was just thinking about something!", Spectrum looked at her aunt suspiciously, "But-", just when she was about to say,she heard two voices down the hall. Two familiar voices that Spectrum knew very well, that all her siblings knew. Scootaloo heard the voices as well, and motioned for the pegasi to keep quiet.
Shooting Star put her best smile as she watched a pegasus mare and colt walk in the massive dining room. Scootaloo stood by the door when the cyan mare with rainbow hair and the pale blue stallion walked in. These two were legends, these two were Rainbow Dash and Soarin.
The two pegasi looked at their children, "Good Morning Everyone", they said. "Good Morning Mother, Good Morning Father", the children all said together to the delight of their parents. Rainbow Dash looked over at the orange pegasus, "Scootaloo?", "Good Morning Rainbow Dash", she replied with a proud voice. Rainbow Dash smiled and took her seat next to her husband.
Spectrum looked at her mom and dad, who were unaware of her staring at them. Come on Spectrum, it's now or never, she thought to herself. The doors from the kitchen opened with servants rushing in, each one had a plate with breakfast so delicious that it can even satisfy a diamond dog. The servants said their good mornings to Rainbow Dash and Soarin who replied to them with the same answer. They put the food on the expensive table which was covered in a silky cloth only made by the most fabulous and generous pony in all of Equestria.
The servants all went back in the kitchen as they left the two ponies who ate with their family. Spectrum took the fork that was sitting on her table and and ate the pancakes that were piling on her plate. Soarin looked back at his children and spoke with the most calm voice, which didn't last very long. "I hope you all did your training yesterday", Shooting Star looked up from her plate with the most excited smile Spectrum has ever seen, she still remember the thought that was clinging from her head. Shooting Star cleared her throat, "Yes father, we were all training very hard", she said. Not deciding to wait any longer, Spectrum interrupted her sister.
"Well I wasn't", she said in a casual way which didn't surprise her family that much. Each of her siblings face-hoofed once they heard what she just said, some even 'ughed', "Well ain't that surprising", Glide said as she grinned with sarcasm. Shooting Star gave Spectrum a furious look, trying to tell her to shut up before she gets everypony in trouble. Rainbow Dash and Soarin squinted their eyes at their daughter, "And why's that?", Rainbow Dash asked.
"Well I was busy", Spectrum replied. Everyone face-hoofed more than ever, some of her sisters and brothers muttered some words to her so she can hear.
Bolt: Spectrum....
Ice Storm: Shut up!
Colorwind: Be quiet!
Instead of keeping her mouth shut, Spectrum ignored them and continued to talk. "Well it sure is a nice day outside, maybe we can all go flying like we use to....", she tried to change the subject, but only received a disapproving look from her parents. "We do not have time", Soarin replied. Spectrum was still being told to shut up, but she still kept ignoring. "Well we only go once a year daddy...and I was thinking of going to the ground more often since all we ever do is train every single day...", that's when she crossed the line.
Scootaloo nervously looked from Spectrum to Soarin, who's face was rising with anger. She decided that this was enough and ended the conversation. "Spectrum Light! Your father said no!"
Spectrum's joyful face came to an end as she hung her head low. "I understand", she sadly replied. Even though Shooting Star was annoyed by her sister, she still had a heart. "Nice try", she whispered to her. Rainbow Dash told Scootaloo that it was time for their Wonderbolt training, Scootaloo nodded and motioned for the young pegasi to follow their parents.
Spectrum, who was still a little depressed, followed them to where they were suppose to go. The gates from the mansion opened when the pegasi entered the outside and closed when the last pegasus was left. The towns people smiled and waved at the current Wonderbolts, Spectrum's siblings who knew what they were suppose to do, did the same back to the towns people. Expect Spectrum who was thinking something in her mind. Just because THEY are heroes and rich doesn't mean WE have to do this, being in this kind of position sort of left her with a disturbed feeling, I really wish Anromeda was here.
The family came to a halt when they reached the coliseum, only to be greeted by a "Closed for construction" sign.
