Soarin into Ponyville Princess Library

The wonderbolt flew to the cloud house Rainbowdash resided in, flapping his wings, he glided to the airy living room and rested on a fluffy cloud couch as his Rainbow friend trotted on the soft cotton candy-like floor to great him.

Soarin greeted Rainbowdash with a shining smile and said "that was a good race, Rainbowdash!" He scratched his wings and back, his head wincing from a shot of pain. "It really did work my wings a lot with that flying! But I'm sure you'll be a wonderbolt soon, my friend!" Rainbowdash laughed heartly and poked the stallion's chest friendly.

"Yeah! Well if that happened, those wings of yours would never be able to keep up in the competitions!" the two pegasi laughed as they walked towards the door leading out to the beautiful morning sun in Ponyville. Hooves dug deep into the cloud floors and the sun glazed their manes in a golden liquid of light. Rainbowdash stretched and bent down in a competitive position as she flexed her left wing, her eyes peaked at the wonderbolt that stood to her left. She smiled and offered "since you are off duty, on leave- why don't I introduce you to my friends in Ponyville? I'll race you to Twilight's first-" her face turned glum as her back slumped down, "it's good to get that boring egg-head stuff away anyway!" Soarin glanced at her shaking his head musingly.

"Well, let's do that then-" he paused and sneered playfully "-Rainbowslug!" And with that, the two figures like the night before zoomed across the town like two blue torpedoes aiming to the library the studious purple Alicorn lived in.

. . .

Twilight was indulging herself in her grand library levitating a cup of tea as the last rays of the morning sun had slowly transformed to the afternoon glaze of day. She flipped a page in the red book she was reading with magic and sipped nonchalantly while keeping her eyes peeled on the book before her. Her pupils shrunk as she shivered reading the book.

And the brave lass Matilda took her sword and gave one look at Ragnar the Red... Her eyes blazing red and hair flailing in the wild wind.

Twilight slowly veered into the book, her eyes wide in the suspense of the story, mouth agape.

The Brave lass Matilda shouted at the stoic fellow, and pointed the blade at his neck. Voicing those ancient words of song:

'Well you talk and you lie and you drink all our mead! And I think-

A crash was heard from the floor above. Twilight growled as she deliberately closed the red book shut, leaving the Book of Skyrim Tales alone. "Argh! Who could be here at this time!" She clasped her head, "oh... especially on such a good part too!" She lumbered her way up the stairs and then a shriek was heard all over Equestria.

"Rainbowdash! What did you do!" Her Rainbowdash squeed shyly, and trotted up to her apologetically as papers fluttered around the room, she placed a hoof on her shoulders.

"Listen egghead- I'll clean the books up later- but why don't you show some 'regality' to one of my friends on leave, Soarin." The pegasus nimbly trotted up to her and bowed elegantly.

Soarin looked at the purple amethyst eyes of the Princess and saluted her, commenting "fine day Princess! I never meant to ruin this library of yours- and I apologize... You aren't the only one who suffered." Twilight rolled her eyes and in her frustration sighed while placing a hoof on her head.

"Well, it's not like I didn't know Rainbowdash couldn't crash into a scarecrow and a Library in two days!" And like a scarecrow herself she bent over to the pile of papers around her and levitated them, eyes narrowed as she analyzed each piece. "Well, welcome to Ponyville Soarin! I'm not so rude to new comers- but my library is very important to me-" she paused and looked at him earnestly giving a small smile. "But Pinkie Pie will be back soon tomorrow or a couple of days from her-" she lifted her hooves "Rock-family-trip-with-big-sister-Maud," Twilight quickly walked over to a shelf as she folded the papers neatly into a jewel engraved golden box. "When she comes back- expect a party." The purple pony then twirled to Rainbowdash, looking down at him authoritatively. "Also, Applejack will be busy today- she promised Applebloom for a whole-day camp out- and don't ask how and why." She levitated a scroll and tapped her chin and continued, "Rarity has a big commission she needs done- and well Pinkie is Pinkie- I have to clean this is up so come later maybe..." Twilight paused and looked up at the wood ceiling in deep cogitation. "But Fluttershy is free today- there aren't many chores today since she prepared to have a Spa day with Rarity that was cancelled..." Then the Princess placed her face in front of the Rainbow one, eyes serious. "But don't crash into the house, she might get startled... you know that well Rainbow."

Rainbowdash rolled her eyes as she stretched her wings and tail, she posed with one hoof up smiling seductively, she retorted jocularly, "I know that egg-head! We'll just tip toe there! But really, Sparkle, we won't do that." Then with a curt nod, she waved Twilight good bye and smiled at Soarin as they both beat their wings to the small house on the outskirts of Ponyville. Twilight sighed and looked at the small purple dragon lumbering her way.

Scratching his head he asked his pony-mother yawning, "was that Rainbowdash?" He picked up a piece of paper littered with hearts and glitter. His eyes squinted at the writing before him, he read it out loud:

The paper of shipping shall live and a new story ensued- and I ship Fluttershy and Brae-
Twilight Sparkle snatched the paper and stuffed it onto the highest shelf, her magic levitated a key and small 'click' was heard and she huffed deeply.

She hissed in defense "you saw nothing!" Spike looked at her, uninterested.

"Well Twilight, I guess I know you like to write romances.. bad romances."


Author's Note

Hehe, hope you liked it- it's different but I think I need to develop Soarin's character more through meeting a sweet shy pony :3

Hope the characters are on par with how you imagine them to be!
