It all started with that day, she got up, then took a nap. Then took another nap, and got woke up by the damn dog. It always started like this "Mazie, we need to have a talk. Take a seat." The multi-colored dog ceased her barking and sat down "I think it's time you start taking me seriously when I say 'stop'." The dogs ears were laid back and she gave an innocent smile, baring her teeth slightly. The dark red mare in front of her let out a defeated sigh "I'll let it pass for today, but I'm not gonna deal with you waking me up anymore." She tried to give the dog a stern glare, but she could never stay mad at her, she was too freaking kawaii. She looked away, trying to fight the urge to smile. When she looked back down at her dog, she gave in and pet her head softly "Why do you have to be so cute? It makes me feel like I'm the pet sometimes and your just here to mess with my head." Her dog nodded and jumped up onto the bed next to her, Cyan Feather huffed "Oh so I am just your little toy huh? I guess someone's not getting a treat today then." She stood up and began walking towards the door. Then gasped and jumped, her golden, metal wings opened, the leather pattern glowed a reddish-pink as the light from her bedside lamp stood behind her, turned on. One of her friends had burst through the door, gasping for air, he lowered his head, trying as hard as he could to regulate his breathing "Dude, Ray! What the hell? You scared the crap out of me!" she growled at him and closed her wings, she winced as a bent metal feather stabbed her in the shoulder. She made a mental note to fix that one. He finally looked up and wiped the sweat off his forehead "Jeez! Why do you have to live so far from Ponyville? I came to tell you that Princess Luna wanted to talk to you, personally." Cyan almost fell over laughing "Oh? So your her little messenger colt now huh? Pfft! D-did she give you a collar too? Please tell me she called you slave at least once!" She turned away, trying to hide her laughter. Ray glared daggers at her "No! I'd never let somepony call me that!" She turned back to him, smirking "Really? What about that one time when your brother was really sick?" He sighed "Look, I'm just here to tell you that she said it was very important. OK?" She nodded to him "OK, I'm done with teasing you, you got boring quick." The red unicorn rolled his eyes "Yeah, Yeah. I get it. Now c'mon, we gotta go." She turned to Mazie and waved goodbye. The dog barked, and as they left. She curled up on the pillow on top of the bed, falling asleep.

Once they had reached Ponyville, Ray was back to gasping for air, But Cyan was used to walking for long distances, though. She would usually fly to Ponyville, it was a lot faster. She looked up at Luna once they'd found her "So...Why am I here?" Luna smiled, she always like how Cyan just treated her like a normal person, not making a big deal out of her being royalty. "I hope it's not too much trouble for us to go somewhere more private?" Cyan Feather nodded and turned to Ray "You can go if you want, I'll see you later." He nodded, still heaving slightly. Her and Luna began walking away. The Princess figured they should go to the old library, not many people went there anyway. They soon reached their destination, Cyan looked around confused. She didn't really expect Luna to take her here. "Why did we come here, and not somewhere to get food?" They both heard her stomach growl, even though Luna was across the room from her. "I took you here to tell you something." She shook her head "No, I get that! What are you going to tell me though?" She watched the Princess take a book off of the shelf, flipping through it. Cyan Feather noticed it was a book called The History of the Wonderbolts. She tilted her head, still very confused. "Cyan, how many times have you read this book?" The red mare looked up in thought. "About...12 times? Yeah, I've read it 12 times, I, uhh...really like it." The dark blue mare glanced back at her for a moment, feeling very dramatic and mysterious. "So you know a lot about the Wonderbolts, right?" Cyan nodded "Yeah, I've always wanted to be one, ever since I was a kid." Luna finally put the book back and turned in her direction "What if I told you that you can be one?" Cyan looked around once more "I'd probably...be confused." Luna was just as confused as her "Why do you say that?" She shrugged "I don't see why it would take them so long, I've been trying for like, four years to get into that group." Luna sighed "You do realize that you have to be a certain age to become a Wonderbolt, right?" Cyan laid her ears back "....There is?" Luna almost attacked her. "Holy hell, you must be retarded." Cyan huffed "HEY! Be nice!" Luna turned away again "Holy freaking Celestia you need to go back to school." Cyan sighed. "So you brought me here to tell me I'm stupid? Yeah, OK I'm leaving now." The red Pegasus began walking out of the library, until Luna called her one last time "I actually brought you here to tell you that they had selected you and three other Pegasi to be trained as Wonderbolts." Cyan felt her heart stop for just a moment. She turned back to the Princess and nodded "OK, but I'm still mad at you for being mean." Luna shrugged "Maybe if it wasn't true..." she trailed off as Cyan Feather began walking away. "OK, leave me here in the middle of a sentence, doesn't make you any less stupid." She said to herself.
