"Beep Beep...Beep Beep"
"Urghh..." Rainbow groaned
"is it 6 am already?" Rainbow questioned, she had been out with the bolts at a late night party celebrating yet again another successful show. Dash had to much to drink, mostly cider. She was not wanting to get up, so she stayed in bed for a couple of minutes, she then realized she had to get ready for work before the caption gets angry, or if she turns up late to the HQ in time for the rehearsals, for their next show in Canterlot.
She slowly took off her blanket, got up and went down her staircase into her kitchen to make breakfast. Today she was having oats, as a pony would usually eat. She quickly ate her oats and rushed to get dressed in uniform.
Rainbow's POV
I thought to myself while putting on my uniform.
This uniform looks really tight on me, not in a compliment way, like a "it shows my curves to much" way, unless that is a compliment?! whatever, just...I've noticed alot of stallions sometimes staring or trying to get a better view behind me, its creepy but, it tells me those stallions have probably never been laid before hehe. I mean, all I remember was stallions just showing off during shows, even Spitfire was getting the "Hey girl can I get yo number?" shit going on at shows and what not. but seriously, can ponies stop with those cringe worthy pick up lines?. Being at the bolts is okay, stallions and mares don't seem to do much except for the "fly to impress", which is basically the showing off at live shows thing. Maybe if a mare started something maybe the stallions might be better at getting a mare friend, not to be sexist but, stallions suck at getting mares.
I've finished thinking about a ton of shit and rushed again to head off to the HQ. As I was about to leave Derpy the mail mare was coincidentally putting mail in my mail box. "Thanks Derpy!...uh...I might check it when I get back, Cya!" I flew off and Derpy signaled me a wave goodbye.
I finally arrived at the HQ, not to late and not to early, I put my things in my locker and as I was about to close it, suddenly
*locker door shuts*
"Boo!"
"Ah!" I shouted in shock
A stallion with a light blue coat, giving me a shitty grin, knowing he won this time again.
"What the hell Soarin!?!, is it every time your going to fucking scare me like that?" I said in a loud tone.
"Hey, You started this, not my fault your a scared pony" Soarin said griming at me.
I gave him a scrunched up face and glared at him.
"Next time, your going to get it!" I kept glaring at him, but then saw Fleetfoot who had thought about the way I said that and had taken it in a wrong way.
"You two are going to-...?!" Fleetfoot gets interrupted by me
"Uh...Fleetfoot, I didn't mean it that way..."
She awkwardly trotted away and left me and Soarin in an awkward silence.
I broke the silence and spoke.
"She clearly didn't say that on purpose, It was a joke, I mean its fine."
Soarin kind of stood there deeply thinking about how to get out of this situation. I checked the time and saw that I had to get to my next rehearsal session for our up coming show.
"Hey Soarin I, got to go, but i'll see you around, I hope, hehe bye now!"
As I trotted away he checked my flank out, I only saw him from the corner of my eye but I just scoffed and walked on.
I walked right in the middle of a speech that the caption was giving, I had second thoughts that I was really late, but, it was just an early announcement.
"Good morning Bolts, I've made this little assembly just to give ponies a heads up! If a pony isn't here at the moment, do tell them when they have arrived. Anyhow, as you all know, our next performance will be at the Canterlot Gardens where the Princesses will be attending, I've heard rumors that, alot of ponies want a good show, that millions will be there to see it. So this gathering is about working harder for this one performance, we could gain an even bigger crowed if we do so. I've been advised by other captions that we should start working towards our goal today, so I'll see everypony out on the fields in 20 minutes, If your late then that means you don't want to be in this to win this now do you? I'd be grateful if you arrive earlier than expected, just be sure to be 100% ready, you are dismissed."
Listening to that announcement made me just want to kill myself, she wants timing to be perfect from now on until this fucking routine is done. Why do we need to wake up early? Oh yeah I know! To kill more sleeping time. No wonder Soarin has baggy eyes, I guess Spitfire and Fleetfoot don't have baggy eyes because they love their jobs, and somehow wake up all optimistic for a good day. I'm not a morning pony, wait never mind, no pony is a morning pony.
As I left the meeting, I heard ponies chattering about that speech Spitfire gave us.
"Hey dude, are you actually going to wake up early?"
"Fuck no, how am I going to eat breakfast or even for that matter get sleep?"
"I don't know man, but I'd rather not even be in this show"
"We can't bail down now, Spitfire would think where not putting in the effort a wonderbolt should."
"Ugh..Why do we have to do this?"
"I know, kill me too"
Well, at least I'm not the only pony who wants to fucking die. I went to the mares bathroom and gave my face a rinse with water, I looked in the mirror and thought about how boring this place is, I wanted more...action, like something that would really sparks the flames around the campus. I really had no clue how there could be something to make this team more of what it is now. I felt like I was superfluous in my words, I didn't want to do something like this, but it was the only way I would enjoy it. I had a slight feeling that, the fans of the wonderbolts would love to have the same interaction, I think this is a good idea, but, was it?
I dried my face and galloped on over to rehearsals, as I said, Spitfire wants everything to be perfect, so she got mad at me for being 10 minutes early, when we started earlier than we were supposed to.
"CRASH, YOUR LATE! How many times do I have to make it clear for ponies, to come earlier than expected?"
"But ma'm you said to be early, not to be 'earlier than expected'"
"Are you correcting my speech?"
"No ma'm just I...I was in the mares bathroom..." I was in trouble, I didn't want to sound rude, but hey, Spitfires a bitch anyway.
"I hope you weren't doing anything in there with anypony, you sure took your goddamn time!"
The whole team heard that, they all stared at me, I blushed bright red, but I didn't want to blush from preventing everypony to think I actually did do something in there, which I didn't! But wow Spitfire is a real basic bitch.
"Uh...no ma'm there wasn't...anything going on in there...ma'm"
"Then why did you take a long time?"
"Uh...I just took a...a quick shower"
Spitfire snared at me, I had no response to give back, I just hoped she ignored my dumb excuse.
"Hmm...whatever Crash, next time your in for-"
"uh..."
Fleetfoot was behind Spitfire, I kept my laughter in. Spitfire, turned around to Fleetfoot.
"Is there something wrong?"
"I....I'm just gonna go..."
She trotted off again, but the look on her face was priceless.
Spitfire then declared instructions, she showed how the routine will be planned and, we set out to start practicing.
