Rainbow Dash raised her head from her pillow, her rose eyes full of anger and hate.

It has been three months, three months since the Wonderbolt Soarin’ had arrived on her doorstep, with an apologetic look on his face. Three months of him, dating someone else than her! Three months, before her dreams and heart shattered into thousand tiny smithereens…

“Look, Dash, I know we have known each other for a long time, but I think that we are not… uh… I mean, I found someone else who seems to be… er… a … better… match with me.” A stuttering Soarin’ said, as soon as Rainbow Dash opened her door to her cloud home. She grinned, and said, “Ha! Good one! That was the best prank I encountered!”, while beckoning him to enter her home. However… she froze when she realised Soarin’ was not laughing, neither were his emerald eyes shining, just like they used to.

“No… It’s not true, is it?” Her rose eyes were devoid of life, while a look of shock crossed her face. Silence from the stallion confirmed what the cyan mare least expected. Her eyes brimming with fresh tears, she slammed her cloud door as soon as she entered her house.

Sighing, she sat up, and went through her mail, one by one, many by her admirer, Scootaloo, which was tossed entirely into another room, a few comforting letters from her friends, and what’s this? A creamy white envelope, which was torn open to reveal an invitation… to a WEDDING? Rainbow was confused, she was sure that none of her friends were getting married. She opened the card, and the words inside made her blood run cold.


“You are invited to the joyful occasion of marriage between Soarin’ and Spitfire” she read. It took a while for her mind to comprehend that. However, as soon as the details inside were comprehended, the card was tossed to the side of the room, hitting the wall with a dull thunk. “WHAT?!”

Within seconds, she landed in Ponyville, only to be bombarded with many questions of the two Wonderbolts that are going to be married. Screaming, she zoomed from the horde of ponies, to the nearest refuge, Twilight’s library.

“INCOMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!… Oof.”

“RAINBOW!! I just cleaned everything up!” Spike shouted, wobbling upon the ladder and looked around at the empty shelves that were once full of organised books.

“Heh… Sorry. Is Twilight here?” Just then, who Rainbow Dash was looking for appeared upon the stairway. And she asked just the question that Rainbow was trying to avoid; “Rainbow, is it true? Is Soarin’ and Spitfire getting…” However, Twilight’s sentence was cut short by a loud bang that left all the doors and windows of the library rattling.

Not even my friends are of any help… A tear leaked out of Rainbow’s eye, but she soon snapped her eyes open. No… I am NOT going to stand there and let who I love get married to anyone else except me. I am going to thrash that wedding! With that thought in mind, and all the determination that she has, Rainbow flew back to her floating cloud house.
