When Life Gives You Rainbows

You're startled out of your state of relaxation by Fluttershy yelling your name in a tone of voice that seems excited and positive. "Anon!" Considering the reason that she took off, you probably feel the same way as she does, but of a much higher intensity. "She accepted! She doesn't see why not!"

You cannot help but jump out of the sofa with as much energy as you can. You're far too excited for words. You're going to see Rainbow Dash.

"Show me the way!" you impatiently blurt out by accident. She exits her cottage and you follow when she starts flying at a low level, telling you to come along. As soon as you see this, you realize something awful.

You've haven't even had these wings for a day! You haven't taught yourself how to fly! You start to immediately jump in the air and flap your wings as hard as you can, but you can only stay in the air for about a second, which then leads to going out of control until you fall to the ground. What do you do now?

"Fluttershy, did you carry me above the ground or did you drag me?" As expected, considering Fluttershy's physical strength, she responds with the fact that she indeed did drag you across the ground. Therefore, being carried to Rainbow's place would be impossible. You could ask Twilight to use her balloon, but it would seem disrespectful to interrupt her during what would likely be studying, especially as a complete stranger. This leads you to resort to teaching yourself to fly, which despite how hard it would be to train yourself physically to perform this new skill, it's going to be worth it. You must do this to see Rainbow Dash.
