The Rock

Part 1

The Airshow

I got a running start,

and began to flap my wings.

I gently lifted off the ground,

behind me was my team.

We ascended in formation

As we began the show,

I looked down, and to my surprise

saw the Wonderbolts watching from below.

This made me very nervous.

They are the best after all.

If they tell others they don't like us,

Our entire team will fall.

I calmed myself down,

We'd just have to do our best.

We passed through the clouds,

and prepared for the first set.

We inverted and flew what was now up,

And dropped right through the clouds.

We emerged right above the stands,

And the now cheering crowd.

We all flipped over simultaneously,

and leveled back out.

The crowd got slightly louder,

and began to scream and shout.

We all split up in separate ways,

and prepared to begin our solos

Sky High would be first, then Aero, then me,

And then we would form on Polo.

I maintained an orbit

and subtly fixed my mane

As Sky High did her solo

and made the crowd go insane.

Sky pulled out as Aero pulled in,

And he began his show.

I flew along with Sky

As he did his short solo.

When he was done, it was my turn.

The crowd cheering very loud.

I broke off from out of view,

And snuck up behind the crowd.

They noticed only when I was right above,

I happily surprised them.

They continued yelling loudly,

as I flew past and began climbing.

I flew a loop and leveled out,

Preparing to turn about,

When a small rock appeared out of nowhere

And suddenly I was out.
