Rarity has decided that everyone deserves a special someone, including Rainbow Dash. And she has figured that the only person who would match Rainbow Dash is someone like Rainbow Dash. Don't ask me how, but somehow Rarity pairs Rainbow with Indigo.

Author's note: Again, this is a never used shipping, so sue me if this sucks!:twilightangry2:

Rarity has decided that everyone should have a special someone. And her first target is Rainbow. Her and the rest of the girls agree that Rainbow must have someone just as headstrong, just as outgoing and self assured as Rainbow. So they agree it should be Indigo Zap. Don't ask me how or why, but they do. And chaos happens...

Some cussing. Just a warning. Sex tag is for a makeout scene.

The revelation...

"So, um, Rainbow," Rarity said, inconspicuously clearing her throat.

"Yeah," Rainbow said looking up from her latest Daring Do book.

"We were wondering-", Rarity said cutting herself off. "Or rather I was wondering-"

"Yes?", Rainbow said impatiently, cutting the other girl off.

"Do you have a special somebody?"

All eyes in the room turned to look at Rainbow as she processed the question.

"No.", she said quickly. "And why are you all looking at me like that? Rares doesn't wanna sleep with me or anything does she?", Rainbow said, smirking at Rarity's now beet red face.

"No!", Rarity was quick to point out. "But wouldn't you want someone who would?"

"No!", Rainbow yelled. "Look, I don't understand why I would possibly need anybody to make my heart whole, or whatever romantic junk you say."

"Romantic junk?", Rarity asked.

"Yes, romantic junk and all the frou frou girly girl crap that comes with it!"

"Now Rainbow that tain't fair!", Applejack drawled.

"Well you're right AJ," Rainbow said. The others thought she would admit defeat, but they were wrong. "I guess the person that comes with the relationship determines he amount of romantic junk and frou frou girly girl crap.

"So you're staying that you would never want anyone?", Rarity asked connivingly.

"Yes!", Rainbow said.

"Nonsense!", Rarity said, huffing. "Well you at least have a preference, do you not?"

"Fine, I like chics.", Rainbow admitted, sending the room into spirals of gasps, and words that one never thought would come from Rarity's mouth.

The girls in the room gasped.

"SCANDALOUS!", Pinkie yelled.

"What? C'mon, my main color is the freaking rainbow!"

They all continued to stay shocked.

Rainbow continued. "I mean, Pinkie has pink. Twilight has purple. AJ has orange. Fluttershy has yellow. And Rarity has white, which if I may say, is not racist at all, being that none of us have black." Rainbow smirked.

"Rainbow!", Twilight said, finally recovering her ability to speak.

"Well that's not fair!", Fluttershy yelled. "Color doesn't determine it!"

"Well how would you know?", Rainbow asked boldly, sticking her tongue out playfully.

"Cuz I'm lesbian too!", Fluttershy shouted. "Oh, I'm sorry.", she apologized shortly after, whispering. Carry on girls.", she said grinning sheepishly.

"SCANDALOUS," Pinkie yelled again.

"Okay then! I guess we just found out her sexual preference!", Rainbow yelled.

"Yes, I suppose we did," Rarity said in a much quieter voice.

After that there was a brief moment of quiet. And after that another awkward silence. And then after that, well, you get my point.

Eventually Rarity spoke up. "Are your, erm, preferences, why you don't want a special somebody?"

"It's part of it.", Rainbow admitted quietly.

"Oh.", Rarity said. "What's the other part?", she asked, not expecting the answer she would be given.

"Because c'mon! How many dykes could there possibly be in Canterlot High? Or even in Crystal Prep Academy?", Rainbow asked. "Huh? Do you guys know? How about in this city? In this state? Oh wait, it doesn't matter."

"Why ever would it not matter?", Rarity asked.

"Because look at me! I intimidate tons of people. If I went up to ask out a guy or girl, she would probably make it through the first date, then ditch me for some other type of girl. People like girls who are feminine, and pretty, not rough and tumble, and headstrong like me!"

Rarity hated to admit it, but Rainbow made an extremely challenging, valid point.

After that there was a brief moment of quiet. And after that another awkward silence. Again.

"Well then, we need someone who could pass on feminine and pretty girls. Someone who wouldn't give a care if they went out with a headstrong gal like you. Someone who could hold their own...", Rarity trailed off...

And they all stared at Applejack.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash both said one word at the same time. And that word was "No."

Given that reaction, Rarity seemed a little downhearted for a second before she stood up, and practically screeched, "I'VE GOT IT!"

All the people in the campus coffee place stared at her.

She sat down quickly, muttering, "I mean I believe I have a solution." Then she stood back up, and asked one final question.

"Rainbow Dash, are you sure you want me to find you your special someone?"

"What do you mean am I sure?", Rainbow said, rather loudly. "I never agreed to it in the first place!"

Rarity gave Rainbow puppy eyes. "Please," Rarity whined.

"Rainbow!", the others warned, before eyeing her disapprovingly and seeming to all communicate the same message telepathically.

'Rarity is excited don't ruin this for her.'

And how could Rainbow say no to Rarity after being assaulted by angry glares and a pretty much telepathic final warning? So she said the only thing she could say.

She said "yes."

Her friends cheered, especially little miss matchmaker. And she had a very bad feeling who Rarity would end up pairing her up with. I mean, there are no matchmaking restrictions when it comes to Crystal Prep. And Rarity was saying how she needed someone head strong. But it couldn't be who she thought it would be, right?

Soon she would find out just how wrong she was...

The revelation part two..

After a couple more minutes of talking with each other, everybody pretty much broke up and went their own way. And little did Rainbow know, that as soon as Rarity left the coffee place, her fate was sealed. At least for another week or so...

--------At CPA...
Indigo Zap had a bad feeling about today, she had probably failed her math quiz, her peers weren't exactly the most welcoming, and she hadn't seen her friends the entire day, no doubt thanks to Principal Finch, as she called their principal. But as soon as she settled down with her friends, she was sure that the bad parts to this day were over with. And she should have knocked on wood as soon as she thought that, because guess who came barging in? Canterlot High's relative major fashionista, that's who. Rarity. She shuddered, remembering the time that Rarity had tried to put a dress on her. She could only imagine what Rainbow had to go through, being one of Rarity's closest friends and all. She was probably Rarity's living breathing fashion mannequin. She could only imagine the look on Rainbow's face! She burst out a raspy laugh. Complete with a volume so loud that half the people in the room looked at her as if she had AIDS or something. Whatever, let them stare. They have to deal with her, not the other way around. At least it helped Rarity find her faster.

"Indigo!", Rarity said as she rushed over. "Oh thank Celestia I found you!"

"Rarity!", Sour Sweet said, looking pleased. "How nice to see you. Because you totally didn't come at an inconvenient time at all!"

"Okay, then?", Rarity said, clearly confused by Sour Sweet's comment.

"I don't mean to be crude so I really must talk to you in private.", Rarity said, gesturing at Indigo Zap.

"Okay then. Whatever. That's perfectly fine. Because we totally weren't trying to relax at all!", Sour Sweet added.

"Okay then?", Rarity said for the second time that day, as she stared puzzlingly at her. "So can we, um, talk?", Rarity said, directing her attention once again to the blue haired jock sitting in the middle of the group.

"Yeah, sure, whatever's cool with you dude.", Indigo said, and let herself be dragged out of the room full of friends. Rarity cringed at Indigo's grammar.

"Here's the thing," Rarity started, hesitating, "It's really not proper, but-"

"Yes?", Indigo said tapping her foot.

"I'm really very sorry I'm my experience this is a very personal question-", Rarity said, stressing out.

"Well spit it out already!", Indigo Zap said, impatient as always.

"Do you have a specific preference for girls?", Rarity asked.

"Yeah, I like chics, why?", Indigo asked.

"Well, because I'm trying to set a friend up, and it would be a lot easier if you agreed to meeting her so she knows that you don't have a problem with me setting you two up!", Rarity blubbered.

"Uh, well I do!", Indigo said. "Who would wanna go out with a dyke like me anyways? I intimidate people!"

"Well the girl I have in mind won't be intimidated!", Rarity promised eagerly. "She'll rise to the challenge."

"Yeah right!", Indigo said, walking back to her friends.

"Indigo please!", Rarity said falling to the ground and bawling.

"I'm too headstrong! I'll blow her out of the water! This has got to be some sort of joke!", Indigo said desperately.

"But it's not! It's not a joke!", Rarity said, lying on the ground. Pounding her fists up and down on the linoleum floor. She looked like a high school toddler. Which kind of satisfied Indigo in a mean, dark, and twisted way. Yet they were beginning to make a scene. And that was one thing Indigo did not want. Rarity was now clinging to Indigo's leg, wailing. So Indigo said the only thing she could say.

"Yes. Rarity, you can set me up with this mystery girl!", Indigo yelled. "Just please leave me alone! And quit clinging to my leg, and pounding on the floor.", she said. And let's not forget the bawling.", Indigo added, craftily.

Rarity glared. "Fine!", she said, standing back up, and dusting herself off. "Just come to Canterlot High's track at 4:00 sharp tomorrow. And be ready to handle your date. She is pretty headstrong. And very good at soccer." Rarity said the last sentence with a wink, as of giving her a big clue or something. But then Indigo realized who it possibly could be. Who it was...

I mean, there are no dating restrictions when it comes to Canterlot High, right? And Rarity was saying that it was someone just as headstrong, right? But it couldn't possibly be who she thought it was, could it? Indigo thought...

Pre-date

The Canterlot High field at 4:00...
Rainbow Dash waited on the field, kicking the soccer balls one by one as they rocketed into the net.
----------Meanwhile at CPA...
Indigo Zap was was ticked off. Seriously ticked off. She wasn't sure who she was meeting, no idea if they were crazy open about this, and no idea if this was real or a prank to get them back for almost winning the Friendship Games. If it was a prank it was liable to be either Rainbow Dash or Pinkie Pie. And it could be either one of them that she was meeting. Unless she blew it off...

Her thoughts were interrupts by the arrival of Sour Sweet, and Sugarcoat.

"So hey Indigo, still getting ready for your date? It's not like you're five minutes late or anything!, Sour Sweet remarked casually.

"You know, she is right. If my calculations are correct...", Sugarcoat said.

But Indigo did take their words to heart, and ran over to grab her phone from her backpack. She saw what time it was, and whispered, "crap."

After saying a quick goodbye to her friends, Indigo ran out of the room.

"We are following her? Right?", Sunny Flare asked as she peeked out of the closet.

"Yeah!", Lemon Zest screamed.

"Oh yes Lemon, because I'd we're following her we should definitely scream everything we say!

"Really?", Lemon asked, oblivious to Sour's sarcasm.

"No!", they all said before shushing her and starting to follow Indigo.

-----------Meanwhile at CHS...
"Do be quiet!", Rarity said indignantly as she plopped a Bollywood cushion down behind the bush they were using to observe Rainbow's 'date'.

"Would ya quit yer whinin?", Applejack asked tersely as she watched Rainbow kick ball after ball into the net. She then went to collect them, repeating the same routine each time.

"Oh, you don't think Zappie stood her up, do you?", Pinkie asked, more worried than Rainbow was.

"Darling I don't think she would care either way," Rarity said, trying to stay calm as Applejack tried to rip the cushion out from under her. Halfway through Applejack's attempts to steal Rarity's cushion, Applejack squeezed her butt. And that was that. Both AJ and Rarity popped out of the bush. AJ took of running, with Rarity on her heels. Rainbow looked over just in time to see it.

'Well', Rainbow thought, 'at least Rarity is actually running.'
Rainbow smirked to herself.

--------back to CPA...
Indigo ran down the steps of Crystal Prep High in a blind rush to get to Canterlot High. Instead of taking the bus, that went at snail pace, she hopped into the car her parents had gotten her. It was the biggest birthday present she had ever gotten. It was also the most expensive. Do you have any idea how much money she had to spend on gas every month? Nonetheless, she hopped in and sped away. Hot on her trial, her friends got into Sunny Flare's car, and stepped on it.

The Date

--------a couple minutes later at CHS...

Indigo jumped out of her car, sprinting down to CHS's field, and not stopping until she reached the edge of it.

Sunny Flare and the other CPA crew got out of their car, and ran until they could find a good spot to hide.

Indigo looked up from the ground she had been staring at, panting from running all the way down the hill to the soccer field. And then she saw Rainbow, and Rainbow saw her.

'Shit,' Indigo thought.

'Shit', Rainbow thought as well.

Then they each thought, 'I knew it.'

And then they both cursed Rarity for putting them in such an awkward situation. Silently, of course.

Indigo slowly jogged over to Rainbow.

"Hey.", Rainbow said casually, keeping her cool.

"Hey.", Indigo said back.

A pink head popped out of a bush surrounding the field. "Hay is for horses!", it said. Loudly. Then a white hand grabbed the head and forced it back down.

Rainbow knew Rarity would want to see her idea through. Darn Rarity.

"So, you're like me, huh?", Rainbow asked.

"Yeah, sorta. I mean I guess...", Indigo said, awkwardly.

"So you're 'headstrong?'", Rainbow said making air quotes around the word headstrong.

"Apparently. They did think I was the only one who could match you in self confidence."

Applejack huffed in the bush. She and Rarity had returned to it briefly after Rarity had poked her with a stick a couple of times. Because according to Rarity, she couldn't get too dirty. It would ruin her dress.

"Ya know those are just nice ways of saying that we're both stubborn and cocky, right?", Rainbow asked, cocking her head and smirking.

"Oh yeah.", Indigo replied lukewarmly, smirking right back.

"Well as long as we're here...", Rainbow said, gesturing to the soccer ball.

"You wanna play a game dontcha?", Indigo asked.

"I think it'll get the bush people to come out," Rainbow remarked casually as she pointed at the bush where the pink head had popped out of, and another bush on the other side of the field.

"Well, I can see your friends, but why are you pointing to that other bush?", Indigo asked skeptically.

"Really?", Rainbow asked.

Indigo just shook her head.

"You think I was the only one that was followed?", Rainbow said, a smirk gracing her lips. "That's adorable."

"Don't call me adorable.", Indigo said, rolling her eyes. "And I'm going to give them a piece of my mind!", Indigo said, yelling louder than Lemon Zest, and marching over toward the bush.

But Rainbow grabbed her wrist and whispered, "don't be so impulsive, let's just play a game of soccer. At least humor them. If this doesn't at least work a little bit, Rarity is going to set me up with Pinkie or something."

"Fine!", Indigo said after a mini stare off with the rainbow haired athlete. And then Indigo yanked her wrist back.

Rainbow just laughed, and said "feisty."

"Whatever Crash, just get to playing!", Indigo said, the competition already giving her a newfound sense of confidence.

Rainbow was offended that Indigo would dare use her old school nickname against her, but she didn't let it show. Instead, she reeled a ball in, and set some terms. "First to five wins.", she suggested. Well, less like suggested, more like commanded. And Indigo would not have it.

"How about first to ten?", Indigo suggested, more like commanded.

"First to fifteen!", Rainbow said, and tried to regain control of the situation.

"No first to twenty!", Indigo said, trying to take intitiative.

"First to fifty take it or leave it!", Rainbow shouted.

"This is getting quite out of hand, I hope Indigo sees reason.", Rarity said, peering through the bush.

"I'm just glad Zappie didn't stand her up. Our poor Dashie would've been heartbroken!", Pinkie said, peeking over the plant, exaggerating a little bit. Okay a lot.

"ONE HUNDRED!", Indigo shouted.

"Nope.", Rainbow said.

"WHAT?", Indigo said.

"Relax, I'm kidding. We can go all the way to freaking hundred if you want and end up sweaty like pigs, and cranky like old people. Your choice.", Rainbow said calmly.

Indigo just stared at Rainbow. "5 goals it is," Indigo said.

"Great!", Rainbow said. "You want the ball?"

"You think you're so good don't you?", Indigo asked jokingly. Sneering.

Indigo went to kick it, but Rainbow got there first, pulling the same move she pulled on Twilight Sparkle. Then the ball went in the goal as if being pulled by a magnet.

Indigo proceeded to get whooped by Rainbow. At first, she had the ball, and was doing fairly decent, until Rainbow swooped in, and stole it a second before she kicked it. She spun around, still in shock. Only to see Rainbow kick and score the first point from the halfway point on the field. Rainbow pumped her fist in the air, and went to retrieve the ball. For the second point opportunity, Rainbow had the ball, only to have it stolen by Indigo. "Hey!", Rainbow said.

"Hey what?", Indigo said and scored this time. She had the ball again, and Rainbow stole it, again. Indigo was in hot pursuit, chasing her. "Hey!", Indigo shouted.

"Sorry, can't hear you over my awesomeness", Rainbow said. Indigo couldn't compete with Rainbow's point blank shooting skills, so she scored another goal, bringing the total to 2-1. It went on like this for a while, each of them showing off, until they were tied 4-4. Neither of them knew it, but the bush people were intensely watching them.

"Who do you think will win?", Pinkie asked.

"Want kind a stupid question is that?", Applejack asked.

Rainbow had the ball. All the other times Indigo had stolen it. But this time, Rainbow was confident that she would get this last point. She would win this. She surged ahead, pounding the ball forward with her feet like a natural-born soccer player. Then out of nowhere, Indigo came out and stole it. Rainbow wasn't letting her get it that easily though. Indigo wasn't expecting a chase, so she slowed. Rainbow stole the ball back from her, and rocketed toward the goal with that ball like she was a bomb and was about to blow. Rainbow ran in circles on the field, doing tricks and showing off. Finally, from the other side of the field, when Indigo was about one foot behind her, Rainbow kicked it. It soared up, through the air. And it hit the net, and bounced to land in the grass. Indigo's mouth once again fell open. Rainbow turned around. "To answer your question," she said, filled with the pride of a game won, "I do think I'm good. In fact," she continued, "I think that I'm amazing. Do you have an objection?" Indigo stayed silent. "Good," Rainbow continued.

After a while, Indigo's mouth worked again, and she challenged Rainbow to a kick off. In other words, see how many balls they can get in the net in a row.

Rainbow won that.

The bush that was housing Indigo's friend had a loud, "COME ON!", announced from it. Unlocking a primal urge in Indigo to go strangle Lemon Zest.

But it really got interesting when they started to scrimmage. All they needed to do was get one goal. But see there was lots of close bodily contact, and one like Rainbow Dash would use that to her advantage.

Indigo had the ball, and was doing good dribbling it to the goal. She was about halfway there when Rainbow began her assault. She kicked the ball out of Indigo's reach, dribbling over to her goal, only to have the ball kicked out from between her legs by her opponent. As you can probably imagine, Rainbow did not like this. Especially since Rainbow was not a very patient girl. And of course this went on for several minutes. And when she managed to drive Indigo and the ball back far enough toward her net, she 'accidentally' bumped her lips into Indigo's in a steamy, long kiss. Which was just long enough to put Indigo in such a haze that Rainbow could win. Rainbow dribbled over to the net, taking her time while Indigo touched her lips in confusion.

And then Rainbow made the shot, and got the winning goal. Because she's Rainbow Dash, and there are very few things she won't do to win.

Rainbow pumped her fist in the air and yelled. "Aw yeah! Three games in a row!", while Indigo just looked like a poor confused salmon in the Zoo's bear habitat.

Pinkie's mouth dropped open.

Rarity shrieked.

Applejack steamed.

Fluttershy blushed.

Sour Sweet said a few sarcastic choice words. Such as, "Well that's just fucking great!"

Lemon Zest just screamed "CHEATER!"

Rainbow walked over to Indigo and said, "I hope you brought Gatorade or something."

Indigo was still in shock. A blush covered her face entirely.

"Well at least it's not as awkward as before.", Rainbow said, joking.

"C'mere," Indigo said, regaining her senses, and pulling Rainbow up the hill toward the bleachers. And then they went behind the bleachers.

"You won like 20 times, at least let me have this!", Indigo said, rolling her eyes for the second time that day.

"Okay you're right, I was pretty awesome...", Rainbow said trailing off. "So yeah you can have 'this', whatever that means." Rainbow paused for a second, and asked, "what does that mean?", but was cut off by Indigo grabbing her by the back of her head and kissing her.

Indigo's fingers caressed the back of Rainbow's neck. Rainbow trailed her hand down Indigo's back. They broke apart.

"Oh, that's what that means.", Rainbow said, smirking. "Well I like it. If this is what happens when I win I'll make sure to win every single time."

Which earned a slap on the shoulder from Indigo.

"What?", Rainbow asked earnestly.

This time Rainbow pulled Indigo in, running her hands through her hair, holding her tighter. Connecting their lips hard. Sliding her tongue across Indigo's lips. Until Indigo finally opened up her mouth. Let Rainbow's tongue in. Indigo moaned.

It was driving the bush people crazy that they couldn't see what was going on, so like all sane people they decided to army crawl up the hill. Except for Rarity of course. She went around the back. Cause of her dress. Go figure.

Rainbow ran her hands down Indigo's sides.

The CHS and CPA students were halfway up the hill when they recognized each other.

Rainbow and Indigo continued to kiss.

"Pinkie Pie?!", Lemon Zest yelled.

Which got Rainbow and Indigo to look up from what they were doing for a good long second. But then they continued to go back to their previous activity.

"LEMON ZEST!", Pinkie yelled, bouncing up to a standing position.

"Pinkie Pie! Do be quiet or they'll hear us!", Rarity whisper scolded.

Rainbow and Indigo sighed, and figured it was about time to confront the date spies.

So they marched themselves halfway down the hill, and met them as they were army crawling. The bush people looked up.

"We heard you an hour ago.", Rainbow said smirking.

"Really?", Rarity said. "But we were so cautious!"

"Oh yeah Rares, you were very cautious when you took off earlier today with AJ on your heels. Very classy.", Rainbow deadpanned.

"And thanks to you, Lemon Zest, and Rainbow's freaky good observation skills, I've known that you guys have been over there since we started the soccer game.", Indigo said.

"What? Really?", Lemon Zest said. "You must have bat hearing!", Lemon said to Rainbow.

"What?", Indigo said.

"Bats have exceptionally good hearing skills to make up for their blindness, and to help in echolocation.", Sugarcoat contributed.

"Because you definitely need really good hearing to hear you! Even though you were screaming!", Sour Sweet screamed.

"Woah keep it down guys!", Indigo yelled. "Sheesh, what does a girl have to do to have a peaceful makeout session!"

Everybody but Rainbow and Indigo turned a bright shade of red. Okay well maybe Indigo turned a little red. But Rainbow was shameless.

Then there was awkward silence. Fluttershy decided to fill it.

"I would like to be a tree," she said.

"Not the time Sugarcube.", Applejack said.

"Yeah, we were making out.", Rainbow said, confirming Applejack's worst fear.

"Until we heard some screaming," Indigo mentioned, seeming annoyed.

"Thanks for that by the way.", Rainbow said sarcastically, glaring at Pinkie.

"We'll just go back down the hill now," Rarity said, and pulled the CHS girls along with her.

"No, you don't have to!", Rainbow said.

"They don't?", Indigo asked.

"Cause this first 'date' is over," Rainbow said.

"It is?", Indigo asked.

"Yes, it is.", Rainbow said, but then pulled Indigo in close and slipped her a piece of paper with her phone number on it. "Call me," she whispered.

And then after a few more explanations and choice words, the CHS girls and the COA girls went the separate ways...

Post date...

A week after the date, Indigo sent a text to Rainbow with her phone number. It asked whether Rainbow wanted to go out again tat Saturday. This time to a bowling alley. Rainbow responded a minute later with a yes...

And then both Rainbow Dash and Indigo Zap both squealed into their pillows.

The End...
