A Day in the Life of...

Rainbow dash rolled over, the annoying buzzing of her alarm clock pierced the morning silence. With a groan of annoyance, she reached out with her hoof and hit the snooze button. Sighing in relief, she rolled back over and nuzzled her cloud pillow and drifted back off to sleep. Only for what seemed like moments later, for her peaceful sleep to be utterly destroyed by the alarm clock's blaring.

Dash jolted up in her bed, "For the love of Celestia! Who made this thing so loud!"She yelled, slamming her hoof down on the machine so hard it shattered into thousands of pieces. Rubbing the sleep out of her eyes, she got out of bed and trotted across her room to the bathroom. The cold cloud-marble (at least that's what I think it is) floor chilled her hooves with each step. She stopped in front of the sink and began to brush her teeth. Admiring her bed-head in the mirror she gurgled a cup of water and spat it out in the sink, best part about being a rocker weather-mare? You can totally get away with rocking your bed-head and never have to brush it.

After a quick meal, she shut her front door and flew off to go clear out some storm clouds. Dash raced about the sky at super-sonic speeds, bucking every single cloud in the sky in a matter of seconds, nine seconds to be exact. Dash grinned at her work wondering if it was a record time in an academy somewhere, since it was her personal best anyways. After she made sure that she didn't miss any clouds, which she didn't, she yawned and flew to the nearest fluffy cloud to nap because of her post-worklazyitus.

She awoke from her nap with yawn. Dash stretched out a bit and started flexing, judging from the position of the sun it was about midday. I wonder what AJ's up to? she thought as she took off at break-neck speeds towards Apple Acres.

When she touched down, she noticed Apple Jack pulling a wagon of apples toward the barn. "Hey AJ, what's up?"Dash greeted, trotting up to her friend whom looked towards her as she flashed a smile and waved.

"Well, Hi there,"AJ said wiping the glistening sweat from her fore-head, "What can I do ya for?"

Dash trotted up to AppleJack and followed her into the barn, "I finished clearing up the sky a bit earlier than I thought and I was wondering if you needed any help with some things around the farm."Dashie said, lifting the wagon harness off of Aj and gently setting it down on the barn floor. Aj trotted over to a corner of the barn, and dusted off her hat, "I'm sorry, I just finished up a lion's share of the work, but you could help me get rid of some of the rotten apples from the west part of the orchard."

Rainbow smiled,"Sounds awesome, how can I help?"

AJ rubbed her chin thoughtfully, "I suppose you could fly by the trees really fast and knock them off with your tailwind."

Dash leaped in the air hoof pumped, "Yes! That sounds awesome!"

Rainbow opened the door to her home. It took the latter half of the day just to pick up all the rotten apples off the ground. Yeah, she "forgot" to mention that little bit! Dash thought bitterly as she crossed into her room. Yawning, she pulled open the bottom drawer of the nightstand beside her bed and pulled out a spare alarm clock, didn't hurt to have a spare just in case she woke up in a mood. She set the alarm and crawled in bed. She looked at the poster of the Wonderbolts above her, it showed Spitfire and Soarin side by side performing a dive towards the viewer. "One day,"Rainbow began as she yawned and rolled over on her side,"I'll be in the Wonderbolts."
