Chapter 1

SonicRainboom, Dumbbell and Party Plans

By: Rainbowfeathers2015

I heard Rarity scream as her wings that Twilight had made for her were burnt to a crisp and she plummeted towards the ground. My mind started to race as I flew high into the sky and started to fly as fast as I could to save my friend.

"You've got to be kidding me!"  I exclaimed as I saw Rarity flailing about, too busy screaming and not paying attention when a few of the Wonderbolts went to rescue her. She ended up knocking out a few of them on the way down.

        I started to fly as fast as I could towards Rarity and the Wonderbolts, I could feel my wing muscles straining to keep up with my fast pace. I just ignored the feeling in my wings and continued trying to rescue Rarity and the Wonderbolts. My hair was flying all over the place and getting in my face.

        “Ugh, should have tied it up in a ponytail,' I said to myself as I spit hair out of my mouth. I noticed that as I kept going faster and faster a cone was forming around my hooves.

        I was having a hard time keeping my eyes open as they started to water. I heard a really loud boom as I caught Rarity and the Wonderbolts, I then looked behind me and saw a very beautiful rainbow.

"Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh,"  I squealed to myself as I flew over the arena. I could hear ponies screaming and yelling from below.

"She did it! A Sonic Rainboom!"  Fluttershy screamed.  I saw Twilight, Applejack and Pinkie Pie jumping up and down cheering.

"And they said I couldn't do it!" I said out loud, looking over to Dumbbell, Hoops, and Score. I landed on the clouds and a few pegasi took Rarity and the Wonderbolts. I shook my mane and flapped my wings a bit.

"Oh, Rainbow Dash, thank you so much for saving me. I'm sorry I was trying to be the star of the show when it was your turn,"  Rarity said looking at me apologetically.

I smiled at her and hugged her tightly.

"It's okay, Rarity. I'm just glad you're okay,"  I said, smiling at my friends.

They said goodbye and left on Twilight’s hot air balloon. I waved at them and turned to see Dumbbell, Hoops, and Score in front of me. I couldn't help but glare daggers at them, even though they managed to be nice for most of the competition.

"Hey Rainbow Crash,"  Hoops said to me. I saw Dumbbell elbow him hard in the ribs and clear his throat.

"It's Rainbow Dash, Hoops. you did amazing out there, Rainbow Dash. Do you want to hang out with us?"  Dumbbell asked quietly.

I couldn't help but smile as the guys who used to bully me back in the day were finally starting to be nice to me. I decided it wouldn't hurt to hang out with them, since the Wonderbolts were still out cold from Rarity kicking them.

"Yeah, why not?"  I smiled, walking to the edge of the clouds and flying high into the sky. I started to do loops and twists in the air.  'Man, my wings are killing me,'  I said to myself as I started to slow down a bit. I looked up and saw that Dumbbell looked back at me and he had this weird look in his eyes. I didn't know what to call it, but I just pretended I didn't see anything.

"Hey, you guys go ahead to Ponyville. We'll catch up with you,"  Dumbbell said.

I stopped on a nearby cloud, I flopped onto it and laid there for a minute to catch my breath. As I relaxed into the soft fluffy cloud, I took a deep breath. It smelled so fresh and clean. I couldn't help but smile to myself. That is one thing I loved about my house. It always smelled fresh and clean.

"Rainbow? Are you okay?"  Dumbbell asked quietly, sitting next to me.

I looked up at him and gave him a weak smile, shaking my head.

"Um, yeah, I think so. I just needed to rest my wings. I could feel my wing muscles straining to keep up with my pace earlier,"  I said, stretching my wings out wide and flapping them a little bit.

I felt a pair of hooves on my wings and I started to tense up from Dumbbell's touch.

"Dumbbell, what are you doing!?"  I asked, a little startled by what he was doing and not really sure how to act.

"I'm just giving you a massage to make your wings feel better. Now stop being so tense," Dumbbell said, blushing a little.

I nodded, blushing as well as I looked away from him. My wings were really feeling a lot better as he gave me a wing massage. After the massage and talking for a while, Dumbbell and I decided to continue flying to Ponyville.

"So, Hoops and Score came up with an idea to throw you a party for winning the Best Young Flyers competition. I hope that's okay. I've heard how much you like to party," Dumbbell said smiling at me.I smiled back. "Yes! I'm all for parties. I have to ask Vinyl Scratch to DJ and Pinkie Pie has to be part of the planning as well,"  I said.

Dumbbell smiled back at me as we landed in Ponyville. I started to head over to Sugarcube Corner. I was already excited to party the night away.

"Pinkie Pie, we're partying tonight! Be prepared for one hell of a night!"  I yelled as I saw the pink pony pop into sight.

"Did somepony say party!?"  Pinkie Pie shouted, hopping around happily.

I laughed at my friend as we walked over to Vinyl Scratch's house to ask her if she wanted to DJ tonight. Dumbbell went to find Hoops and Score. I smiled to myself as I hovered above the ground and started to hum.

"Finally," Pinkie Pie said, happily bouncing towards Vinyl's house.

I laughed as I trotted towards the door. I knocked on the door and waited. Vinyl opened the door, smiling at us happily

"Hey guys, what's happening?" Vinyl Scratch asked.

"So Pinkie Pie, Dumbbell, Hoops, Score, and I wanted to throw a party tonight for me winning Best Young Flyers competition," I said.Vinyl smiled huge as she hopped up and down a few times.

"Yes! Party time!" she said high hoofing me.

Pinkie Pie said she was heading off back to Sugarcube Corner to make a cake and cupcakes for the party. I waved goodbye to her as I decided to visit Sweet Apple Acres to see what Big Mac and Applejack were up to. Hovering and twirling around in the sky on my way to the farm, I felt a sharp pain in my wing.

"Ouch,"  I said out loud as I fluttered to the ground and trotted the rest of the way to the farm to give my wings a rest.

I smiled when I saw a certain red stallion pushing barrels around.

"Yes! Apple cider and I hope it's Big Mac's special batch that has alcohol in it,"  I said to myself as I walked over to him to see what he was doing and where he was taking that Apple cider.

"Hey Big Mac!"  I said, happily bumping hooves with him and sitting next to him as he finished rolling a fifth barrel onto the little trailer he was going to take somewhere - hopefully my party.

"Is that a special batch of apple cider for my party?"  I asked wiggling my eyebrows, making Big Mac laugh loudly at me.

"Well my dear Rainbow Dash, yes this is a special batch o' mine and it's fer yer party. I hope you'll enjoy it tonight,"  Big Mac said while getting himself hooked up and started to head out.

I waved to him and ran into Applejack who was making apple pies.

"Oh, you better hope Soarin isn't there or he's going to eat all of these delicious apple pies," I said, laughing.

Applejack scoffed at me and laughed a little. "I'd smack his hooves so fast b'fore he even got one,"  she said as she continued to work hard on her pie.

I talked with her for a while before I told her I was leaving to get ready for the party. Tonight was going to be the best night ever and the party of the year. I flew to my house and my wing still had a sharp pain in it but I ignored it.

As I walked into my house I took a deep breath in and smiled to myself as I made my way to my room. I grabbed my favorite neon green ribbons that I tied on my legs and a few crystal stars that I would put into my hair.

I got into the shower and let the hot water cascade down my long, cyan-colored body. I washed my body, tail, and mane, then got out and started to dry off my hair with a towel.I turned on my hair dryer and started to dry my hair, it was almost dry and I put in some mousse to make it a little fluffy and curly. I let it dry, then decided to put a few more curls in my mane and tail here and there and made my way to my bed where the stars were. I was only putting them in my mane but I was excited to see what they would look like. I sprayed my mane with hairspray and stuck the stars throughout, then looked in the mirror at the sparkly stars in my rainbow hair. I wrapped the neon ribbons around all my legs, put on my neon green tutu, and walked back into my bathroom to put some blush on my cheeks and mascara on my lashes.

"I look beautiful," I said out loud, smiling to myself as I went out the door. I fluttered to the ground to wait for Fluttershy, Twilight, and Rarity so we could all walk to the party together.

The girls and I started to walk to the party, but on the way I saw a few ponies that I didn’t think would be going to my party.

"Hey Rainbow Dash, good job today at the competition. You rock!" Thunderlane smiled to me and waved

I waved as I continued to walk with the girls. I was surprised to see him going to my party; Thunderlane and I haven't talked since the summer class we took at the Wonderbolts Academy.

"Hey Rainbow Dash! Good job today," Derpy said happily as she flew upside down, stuck her tongue out, and hoof bumped me.

I shook my head and laughed. You have to love Derpy for being weird. She could always make somepony feel better no matter what, and that's why she was my friend.

"Hey Dash! You did awesome today! You're the best flyer ever,"  Flitter said, smiling and waving at me.

I smiled and waved back, looking behind her to see Cloudchaser.

"Partayyy Timmme!" Cloudchaser shouted as they flew overhead with a few other ponies I didn't know.

I waved at her as well and couldn't help but be pumped for the party tonight.

"You sure are popular tonight." Twilight smiled at me.

I loved what the girls were all wearing tonight: Twilight had a white tutu with a purple bow in her hair, Rarity had a purple tutu on with glitter in her hair, Fluttershy had a pink tutu on with crystal butterflies in her hair, Applejack had red crystal apples in her hair but no tutu (she wouldn't do it for some reason), and Pinkie was all for it with a multicolored tutu on. I was so excited as we continued to walk to the party when I gasped.

"What did you see?"  Rarity asked a little confused.  Twilight and Fluttershy followed my gaze and their jaws dropped.

"Hey Rainbow Dash. Good job today with that Sonic Rainboom. I knew you could do it! Plusm thanks for saving me,"  Soarin said as he flew by me, winked, and waved.

"Oh my gosh," I said excitedly, flapping my wings a little. 'Ouch! Stupid wing,' I thought to myself as the pain in my wing came back. I shook off the pain and finally made it up the hill and saw the warehouse where Vinyl throws her parties. I was surprised at the line of ponies.

"Wow so many ponies came," I said smiling and looking at the line of ponies that were laughing and jumping around, waiting to go inside.

"Well, duh, you did just win the Best Young Flyers competition." Twilight smiled

"And don’t forget you did a SONIC RAINBOOM!" Fluttershy yelled, squeaking a bit at the end.

I couldn't help but smile at Fluttershy. This was going to be the party of the year, not to mention... THE BEST NIGHT EVER!
