I remember it was just like any other day: Ep 0 prolong

Princess Twilight Sparkle could be described as a mare, with a horn, and wings, with a lavender coat. She has two stripes within her purple mane, one a darker shade, while the other a bright pink. She has a slender build and most notably is her cutie mark. It was the element of magic surrounded by 5 stars.

Surprisingly for a bookworm, you would say that then you have forgotten that she deprived of food, as well she sleep with her alicorn metabolism.

Prancing around the library,  the lavender mare takes in a deep breath. “Ok, it’s the first day of flight training with Rainbow Dash, no pressure,” said Twilight, as she put her hoof to her chest and breathed inward and outward, letting out a sigh. “But with this, everything will be just fine,” she reassured herself, taking a deep breath, as she searched a bookshelf in her castle. “Here it is”, she thought, as her horn lit up while grabbing a particular book with her magic. On the front cover were the words “AERODYNAMICS AND THEORY OF FLIGHT,”. “This will do the trick,” Twilight thought, humming to herself. Pulling it off the shelf with her magic, she hugged it with a smile, as she sat on her rear, now holding the book in midair as she scrolled through the pages. “With this, I can show Dash how to really fly,” she thought as she put a hoof to her chin, “Maybe with this, I can even teach her a thing or two.” said twilight.

Seemingly appearing out of nowhere, Rainbow Dash shouted at the lavender mare sitting below her.

“What are you doing egghead?” She was a pegasus that sported a light blue coat, and a rainbow colored mane along with a toned build. It was not at all surprising that she was constantly moving through the sky, and she enjoyed many sports as well.

Twilight shrieked, jumping at the shock of the sudden noise, as her fur stood on end. As she tossed the book overhead landing on her back. She looked up to find Dash, looking her square in the eyes.

“Twi, I told you, no books!” Rainbow Dash responded as Twilight turned away, to turn both her ears down. In embarrassment, her eyes unable to meet Rainbow’s, knowing full well she had broken her promise. Rainbow Dash, who was hovering in the air, replied, “You asked me for help Twi, but you still won't let go of this!” she said, pointing at her, with the book in her hoof. Rainbow was hurt deeply by this with her ears turned down from the disappointment that Twilight didn't trust her, with teaching her everything she knows about flying, the one thing she was the most experienced at. Glaring at the book, her emotions erupted; smoke came out her ears as she threw the book to the ground in protest of Twilight’s actions.

Out of the corner of Twilight’s eye, she saw the book falling so she jumped to all fours in a blink of an eye, and with everything she had, she attempted to save the knowledge-filled book. In no less than a second, she saved the book from hitting the floor and uttered a sigh. “That was close,” she sighed with a strained look on her face then turned to Dash with a serious tone. “How dare you!” bewildered by the look of delight on Dash’s face.

Rainbow Dash shouted, “That was amazing!” as she put both her hoofs in the air, “Twi, I’ve never seen you fly so fast, as you just did earlier!”

Twilight, in an annoyed tone, said, “Of course, I just got my wings, even I don't even know how fast I can really go Dash…”

As Twilight unknowingly started to lecture Dash, a light bulb appeared over Dash's head. An idea she had and one she was more than willing carry it out. “Twi, I think I know how we can find out how to speed up your training,” she spoke with certainty, hovering in the air, both her forelegs crossed with a big playful grin.

Princess Twilight gave an unsure look. “Let’s take it slow, it's my first day.” With a worried look, Dash replied filled with energy.  “Don't be a spoilsport. Just leave it to me.” As she was trying to ensure her everything was going ok. “Take a fast fly around Ponyville, and then meet me here in an hour,” said Dash.

With that, Twilight was off.

  After a few running jumps and crashes, she started to rise. Through flapping her wings, and gasping in breaths of air, in the calm summer, flying over Ponyville in short time. It began to hit her, that what she was looking at was Ponyville from the sky. “I walked down the streets before, sure, teleported, yes, but I never flew over the town without hot air balloon I never took the time to take in the view of Ponyville,”  Twilight said inwardly as she gave into the relaxing sunny day. “But this will be so different,” she said with a smile in a confident tone with new found energy. Princess Twilight began to race through the air climbing faster and faster. “In An hour, I know I am new but come on, it won't take me that long after I read subsection B, of AERODYNAMICS AND THEORY OF FLIGHT,” she reiterated in a ‘matter of fact’ tone, “It covers proper wings and flying patterns,” Twilight said proudly. As she started to struggle flying, in a straight line going in, and out of the clouds. As Princess Twilight wiped the cloud from her face, she opened both her eyes in shock. “I can see this is what it's like to be like Dash and Fluttershy…” Twilight realized this is what her two pegasi friends see every day, as she took in an overview of the town of Ponyville.

“Sure is wonderful. I can see Fluttershy's house over the trees,”  she said as she soared higher into the sky. Closing her eyes as the wind softly blew her worries away, she brushes more clouds away from her face with one eye closed. Her other eye slowing opening to the other eye then out of shock, both open taking it all in. Princess Twilight looked on in shock. “Applejack’s farm, I knew it was big...” said Twilight in a shocked tone, “...but I didn't think it was this big!” Having a bird's eye view of Applejack’s farm as twilight took it all in. “If only I had a sketch pad...” “Wait, I have one at the castle,” said Twilight with a grin. Knowing this, she raced back. Moments later, coming around back to her Castle of Friendship, she landed, walking into Spike finding him carrying a couple of books. “Ah, Spike, I see you finally have taken to reading in your spare time,” Twilight said with a big proud smile.

Spike replied. “Keep on dreaming Twilight, the books I am holding are not for me, they're for Dash, I'm taking them to her now for some kind of training course...” Scratching her forehead, Spike continued his response while Twilight stood confused. “But I don't know what kind of training could be done, with some books and a storm cloud”. Said twilight as she started to panic. Twilight jumped bouncing off ground and as her mind started to race, thinking to herself, “The books may get wet, and none of these books he is holding will help you with controlling clouds, or hold any vague mention of it,” she worried. Before she knows it, the lavender mare was already running through the town. “What could a pony like Dash, a cool pony that fears being called a bookworm, be doing with all these books? It makes no sense!” Twilight said out loud. Many ponies turned to see Twilight running down the street.

Rainbow Dash saw Twilight running up to her.  “Heya, Twi, you made it!” waving her hoof in her direction, making her turn to Dash as she shouted, “Look out!”

Twilight ran directly.into a puddle of mud. As she ran into the mud the rain from the cloud overhead hit her and she yelled at Dash. “What’s with this cloud!?”

Rainbow Dash replied, “Don't get your mane in a bunch. It is part of your training course.” Dash said joyfully. Twilight turned to look at Dash, she found a bunch of books stacked on the ground in close vicinity. As Rainbow Dash hovered in the air, she looked down at her friend with a smug grin. “So are you going to stay in the mud, or are we going to get this show on the road?” said Dash with enthusiasm.

With a vicious glow of Twilight horn, the lavender mare with distress and annoyance cleaned herself off with her magic, then gave Dash a good stare.

Dash seem clustered from this. She spoke up “What is it Twi?” enquired Dash.

Before she could take a breath, Twilight yelled. “What are you doing with all my books?” With her eyes set ablaze, Twilight continued her anger-fueled rant. “And that rain cloud! I know you said no books, but isn't this going too far!?” said Twilight. Rainbow Dash looked partly shocked, but mostly relieved.  Twilight was bewildered by this, so she posed a question. “Why are you so happy? I see no reason why you should be happy…” asked Twilight eyebrow raised.

Rainbow Dash proudly responded. “Sure, I will tell ya Twi, I was so happy when you got your wings, having a new flyer in our group was so much fun,” Dash said half-heartedly.

Twilight raised an eyebrow, “You sound worried,” she responded.

Dash continued, “Yes Twi, I was kind of worried, when you asked me to teach you how to fly, but then I was proud because it was my turn to be the smartass leader.” She pumped on her chest with her hoof. With that, Twilight rolled her eyes. “Of course,” she replied inwardly. “Then it hit me.” Dash continued, “For me, flying is easy because it’s my passion, my everything and yours was the books, and, whatever it is that you eggheads call it.” as Dash ponders. Twilight interrupts with a reply, raising one hoof “It's the pursuit of greater magic, and joy of learning,” said Twilight with confidence as she gave her response. With a bewildered look on her face, Dash sarcastically commented, ”Yeah. That.” giving Twilight a fake grin. Dash continued, “So it came to me, how can I combine flying with your passion, and make you a great flyer in no time just like me?” pointing her hoof proudly to her chest.

Twilight then stared back with a puzzled expression. “If this is meant to get a point across, I don't follow,” Twilight replied in a skeptical tone. “This doesn't sound like the headstrong Rainbow Dash is known as a mare that isn't prone to thinking things through.” Twilight monologs inside her head, but it turns out she was speaking out loud.

Rainbow Dash replied. “Uh, what's that supposed to mean?”

The lavender mare giggled in response. “So what does ‘Great Teacher’ Dash have planned?” she playfully asked. Rainbow Dash looks on with irritation covering her expression, her eye twitching from her friend’s response. “Yeah, length it up Twi.” said Dash with an annoyed expression, she continued.“Let me explain my great plan.” said Rainbow Dash.

Twilight smiled. “I am not stopping you; go on,” said Twilight as she giggled.

“Right.” Rainbow Dash said with a calm expression, flying down to grab a book, then looked over to Twilight. “This is why I brought your books and the mud,” said Dash in a tone that seemed lifeless, lacking smug tones Twilight found so familiar with her multi-chromatic friend.

With this Twilight replied, her smile turning to dismay. “I still don't get it Dash,” Twilight said with worry.

Rainbow Dash smiled with an evil grin as she hovered in the air, both her hooves crossed. “For all that brain up there,” she points to her head, “you're not all that sharp Twi”.

Twilight began glaring at Dash in spite of her comment.

Dash smirked, liking the look she was giving her. “Let me continue, you know this morning I threw one of your books on the ground,” said Dash.

“I’m following.” replied Twilight.

Dash pointed her hoof at Twilight. “You dashed through the air in ways I never saw you do before.” as Dash move her hooves in fast motion, simulating what she saw. “It made me wonder why,” said Dash. “Then it hit me because your love for books is your passion just like flying is mine. When you fly for your books, you're just like me.” Dash said with both hooves pointing out at the air with glee.

Twilight replied “I follow but what's with the mud?” said Twilight pointing a hoof at said mud as she remembered falling into it.

Rainbow Dash’s smile became wider. “Let me show you.” Dash said, flying over her to pick up one of the books. “Twi,” she cleared her throat, “this is what the mud is for.” Dash pulls back her hoof and tightened her grip. “Think fast!” Dash shouted as she tossed a book in the air, in the general direction of the mud. As everything start to move in slow motion, Twilight looked at Dash with the expression, ‘you wouldn't’. Dash nodding with the expression, ‘I would, and I just did’, with an added grin.

That's when Twilight’s battle to save her literature began; little did she know, it was so much more than that. As everything faded into black and as we drew into the sky, it drew back down over the horizon with an unjust undeterminable figure who seem to be running on water, chanting ‘sorcery, sorcery, sorcery’ with every step, as the land of Equestria comes into vision on the horizon. This indiscernible and mysterious figure speaks. “You magic pony will pay for what you have done.” said the shrouded figure. What did the indiscernible figure mean by ‘you magic ponies’? Tears continued to follow in the undeterminable figure’s wake.

We cut away to see a red sphere, falling, that looked like a drop of water if the water was red from the purest white.
