Chapters It's just a normal day like always... I'm so bored. I wonder what Dashie-Crashie is doing. I got of the cloud and flew to see where my best friend was. I didn't expect her to fall in love with her when we were 7 years old. She always treats me and Spitfire like brothers and sisters. Me and her were the best of friends. It was so cool when she became the element of loyalty. I got kinda jealous. It's still funny how I got jealous. That time when I first fell in love with her I was very childish. (Memory)
"DASHIE WHY!!!!" I cried. "YOU ALWAYS CHOOSE SPITFIRE OVER ME"
"Clipper, stop being a baby" said Spitfire.
"Stop trying to make me feel guilt, I made an oath that I would always be loyal" said Rainbow Dash.
"If you are so "loyal", try and find me if I get lost in the dark clouds!" I yelled.
"Wait! Clipper!!" I herd Dash call out but I kept on flying. I got lost very easily.
"Soarin... Where are you!!??!!" I heard Dash call out. It's been 2 hours since I've been gone. So she really does care about me.
"Soarin!! Are you there!!!!??" I heard tears in her eyes. I flew to where she was.
"Soarin!! What the hell!! You scared me!!" She sobbed. "Too scared..." She murmured. She hugged me with her wing wrapping around me. And that's when I fell in love. I could remember that like it was yesterday. Hopefully I could tell her someday. Where is she anyway. I was just flying in the clouds anyway.
"Yo, Soarin, what ya doin'?" Someone said. I know that raspy, cracky voice well. It was Dashie! All of a sudden I couldn't see. Hooves were covering my eyes.
"Dash, stop" I said.
"How did ya know?" She asked.
"Well it's because I remember that cracky, raspy old voice anywhere" I said.
"HOW DARE YOU!!" She shouted in a mad way. She tackled me into a cloud. And she was hitting me.
"Ow, ow, ouch!" I said. "I'm sorry!"
"You don't say that about the element of loyalty!" Snapped Dash. "You got that?"
"Yep, sorry-not..." I mumbled.
"What was that??!!??"
"Nothing... But I will tell you only if you accept this challenge"
"I can beat you at anything!"
"I like to see you try!"
"What's your challenge then?"
"To get through the cave without light... Are you scared of the dark?"
"Hell no!"
"Then let us look for the closest cave"
"Ok then... I'd like to see the look on your face when I'm done with you!
"Let's fly to the mountains to see if there is any caves up there"
"Or we can go to the Everfree forest..."
"Deal!" As the time past, me and Dash got here in no time. We were so fast. Clearly, I was faster than her. She look very confident. But I got caught staring at her.
"Yo, what are you looking at?" She said. I heard her voice crack. I couldn't hold my laughs in.
"Phhhh... Hahahahahaahahahahahaha, the way your voice cracks!!" I laughed. I saw her cover her mouth with her hoof. Then turned pink.
"I'm just teasing you... Dash?" Hopefully I didn't make her too mad... Well... She is going through something's... Maybe a boy shouldn't know but she told me anyway.
"You would be going through that also, so why did you laugh?" She asked. Then she smiled. "We are here, the Everfree forest!"
"Let's do this!" I said. We both flew to the floor and stood on the grass. We found a cave, I was pretty long but not that long. It was almost sundown.
"So... Let's do this!" She said with glee. And that's when it all happened... It was my fault... Why did I do that? I lost her... It wasn't too long when we got our separate ways in the cave. I was scared. She was probably near the end. Or so I thought. I found the exit but no Dash. She was still in the cave. I was so worried... Just like the way I got lost. But different. I had no choice but to go back in the cave. I couldn't believe it when I found her cyan body. She was laying down on her stomach and her head bleeding. But she was still breathing. I was so relieved. But I couldn't leave her like this. I tried to call her name out to see if she'll respond. But she didn't. I carried her and flew as fast I as can to ponyville. I need to tell Twilight and the rest. I pray that Dash would be okay. I pray... As soon as I got to the castle I tried to find Twilight or anyone to help me. I was so glad that I ran into Fluttershy. I saw the horrified look on her face. Then tears.
"What happened?!??" She asked with teary eyes. I stared at her with eyes of guilt. "No... A challenge... Again..." She said with tears escaping one by one. She turned around not facing me. "What did you do?" She asked in a shaky voice. I had to tell her.
"... We went to the Everfree Forest......" I said. Fluttershy turned pale, like she had no life. "Whoever got out of the cave first, won..." Then I stared at Rainbow Dash. "I'm so sorry Dashie..."
"We have to get to the hospital as soon as possible..." She said sternly. "I'll take her, and you tell the rest of the main six..." I saw her take away Dashie from my hoofs. I fucked up real bad.
"shit"
I had to obey what Fluttershy said. To tell the rest of the main 6. I didn't want to tell because I'll hurt them, but that means... I was so mad I punched Twilight's wall. It was a stupid thing to do but I deserved pain because I caused some pain already. I saw my light blue hoof turn red. Then I noticed that Twilight was standing right behind me.
"Seems like someone is mad" Twilight said in a stern tone. "What's wrong Soarin?" I didn't want to tell because I will hurt one of the most important ponys, The Princess of Friendship.
"Nothing is wrong your majesty..." I said.
"Well, you just punched the wall, so something is wrong, is it about Rainbow Dash? Did she reject you?"
"No!" I yelled. She backed away a tiny bit. I bit my lip. "I didn't mean to scare you princess Twilight..."
"Well... What happened?" This time her voice was very stern. I opened my mouth but then closed it. Then I said...
"Wonderbolts are supposed to make people smile, right?" She stared at me with wide eyes.
"Hmm... Well yeah Soarin, it's weird that you asked that-"
"THEN WHY DID I HURT DASH AND FLUTTERSHY!!!" She looked at me with worried eyes. "I challenged her, then she got into a accident... It's all my FAULT!! I NEVER MEANT IT TO BE THIS WAY! I don't want to hurt your friends..." Twilight just stared at me with eyes of fear.
"Where is she now?"
"Hospital..." Then I saw her leave the place. She probably was going to the hospital. She looked dead inside when I saw her. I'm sorry to everyone. There was 3 more ponys to tell. Element of Generosity, Laughter , and Honesty. Now I'm scared to see how they will react. I left Twilight's castle and flew to Sugarcube Corner. Laughter was next. As I walked in Sugarcube Corner, I saw Pinkie Pie playing with the Cakes (the babies). She look so happy... But I have to tell her.
"Hi Soarin! How you doing?" She asked. Then she put on a worried face. "Soarin, usually you're always happy to be because we bake pie, now you look, sorry to say but you look dead" "Did Dashie reject you?" I nodded no. Then I opened my mouth. I started to feel guilty already.
"Pinkie, Dash got into a accident... She's over at the hospital..." I saw her hair flatten a tiny bit.
"She's okay, right. She'll get through, I know she will." Then her hair flattened completely. She was worried.
"It was critical, Pinkie, you have to get to the hospital as fast as you can... Dash, Fluttershy, and Twilight will be there" Then Pinkie started to cry. The Cakes tried their hardest to make Pinkie stop crying but she didn't. Then she left the place leaving me and the babies here.
I left. Then I was going to Sweet Apple Acres. Two more ponys... Why? As soon as I got there A.J glared at me. Then she said.
"You're not gonna steal our homemade apple pie again you thief!" But then she looked at me funny. "Is something wrong sugarcube?"
"Meet everyone at the hospital... Dash got into a accident" Then I flew away. But I felt a tug on my tail.
"I have a feeling I'm not getting the whole story" I started to sweat.
"N-nothing..." She looked at me with deadly eyes. "You can ask Fluttershy or Pinkie Pie... They already know" Then I flew as fast as I could. I didn't want to hurt the wisest one in the main 6. The last one is the drama queen. Rarity... When I went into her shop she looked tired.
"Hello Soarin" She said in a tired voice. "Sorry if I look messy, it's just that I spent all night making gowns" She looked stressed out.
"Rarity, you need to go to the hospital, everyone will be there, Dash got into a accident" The she looked even more stressed out. She hurried out of the place and left. I punched myself. But then I remembered that Spitfire will kill me if she didn't hear about this. So I flew back to Wonderbolts Academy. I knew it was a long way but she had to know also. A Wonderbolt that causes pain. I was a jerk for coming up with something. I just hope that Dash will be okay. When I got back to Cloudsdale, I hurried back to Wonderbolts Academy. I burst the door open and went inside the academy. Then I knocked on Spitfire's door. When she opened it she looked surprised. I looked dead.
"Spitfire, we need to go to Ponyville"
She looked surprised why we had to go to ponyville. One problem though. Spitfire and Dashie were like sisters. Until Spitfire became a wonderbolt. But they still were the best of friends.
"Why are we going there?" She asked.
"Well, it has to do something with Dash" I said.
"Then spill the beans!"
"But it's not good news!"
"Clipper, I knew Crash and you my whole life, we're like brothers and sisters, now can you please tell me what is going on?" As Spitfire looked at me with worried eyes, I told her.
"Spitfire, Dash got into a accident, it was my fault, I challenged her" All of a sudden I felt a slap across my face.
"YOU IDIOT!!" She screamed. Then I was crying. "WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME BEFORE YOU WENT! AND WHERE DID YOU GO!! I AM THE OLDEST ONE YOU KNOW! WHERE IS SHE NOW!!!!!"
"She's over at the hospital in ponyville" Then she flew out of her office. I did too. I'm so sorry Spitfire. I could tell it's hard on you too.
I herd some whispers when I was flying out.
"What happened there, I don't know, where is our captain going? Huh, what did I miss..." Those were things I herd. i couldn't believe that I hurt my "sister" too. She probably hates me. If I told her then none of this would have happened, but it's too late now. Then only things I could say right now is "I'm so sorry"
This is in Spitfires mind
I think I have been to hard on him but still, he didn't tell me that they were going to do something stupid. It's just like last time... I could remember that already, when I had to act like a big sister. (Another flashback)
"Hey stop pushing Soarin!" Shouted Dash.
"But it's tag!" He laughed.
"Soarin, if Dash doesn't like that, can you stop?" I asked.
"Wait, I'm hurting Crashie?" He asked. Then I smiled.
"I'm really like a older sister!" I laughed. Then Dash and Soaring looked at me then smiled.
"Yeah!" They both said.
But that was in the past. I'm a wonderbolt with Soarin. Dash never got a chance to see us again. When she moved to ponyville, I guess that's when she got to become the Element of Loyalty. She did meet some nice ponys over there but I barely see her now. And when her parents died, it was just her... Now this has happened... Dashie has gone through so much pain! I DONT WANT HER TO REMEMBER IT!!! I couldn't help it but to shed some tears. Don't worry little sis. I'll protect you from pain, I promise.
Back to Soarin
I touched my cheek. I couldn't believe that she slapped me. She was right. She's always right. She is my fake older sis. It's to hard on me. Why is it always her! She goes through so much pain. Her parents FUCKEN DIED LEAVING HER BEHIND!! SHE WAS THE ONLY ONE. SHE HAD TO LIVE WITH ME AND MY PARENTS UNTIL SHE MOVED!! SHE MOVED SO FAR AWAY!! I BEARLY SEE HER NOW!! THIS NOW COULD BE THE LAST CHALLENGE WE HAVE EVER SINCE THAT HAPPENED. SCREW IT ALL!!! DASHIE! JUST FORGET THE PAIN YOU WENT THROUGH, I FEEL SO BAD. I wasn't even thinking about you when your parents died. (MORE FLASH BACKS!!!)
"DASHIE!! DO YOU WANT SOME ICE CREAM" Spitfire yelled. "HELLO???? ARE YOU GOING TO OPEN THE DOOR???" But the door stayed shut.
"Dashie is a heavy sleeper, remember? She's probably sleeping" I told her.
"I guess you're right... Good night Dash..." She said. Then we both left. I got to ponyville just in time an flew to the hospital where everyone met up. Spitfire beat me to it. The way I saw everyone. Twilight was sitting down looking at the ground. Fluttershy was crying. Pinkie Was breathing in and out trying to be happy saying "it's okay" over and over again. Rarity was trying to stay awake. A.J was sitting right by Fluttershy trying to make her stop. Spitfire was shedding tears.
"I'm sorry everypony..." But no one heard or they didn't want to hear.
"Good news everypony, Dash will be okay, but... She won't remember you all..." Nurse Redheart said. My heart stopped. Twilight broke down. Pinkie cried. Spitfire just stared at the nurse. A.J was actually shedding some tears. Rarity cried quietly. It was only supposed to be a fun challenge... But now, the person I love won't remember me at all. How would she be the element of loyalty now?? Who knows...
