Load Full StoryNext Chapter

Summer Flight Camp, a camp for pegasai fillies and colts to learn how to fly and work their wings.

Meet Rainbow Dash, Soarin, and Spitfire. Three foals who became friends on their first day at flight camp. The three young ponies walk to the door, which led to the camp's outdoor arena and obstacle course. Flight Instructor Strike was waiting for the remaining three who were taking a bathroom break. He was an impatient pegasus stallion and he expected the campers to always be on time. Strike impatiently looked at his watch. His left hoof was thumping furiously.

"Where is Spitfire, Soarin, and Dash!?!" Strike shouted angrily. "I expected those three to be back from their bathroom break ten minutes ago!! Where are they?!"

"I don't know Mr. Strike", Cloudchaser shrugged.

"I should've known that Mr. Strike was not a patient teacher", a filly whispered to her friend. The filly's male friend nodded in agreement.

Finally, after 15 minutes, the three friends made it to the outdoor arena obstacle course. As the three friends were laughing, they stop to hear a loud grumble from their flight instructor. The three ponies stop laughing and turn to look at their instructor. They had scared looks on their faces. Soarin, Spitfire, and Dash’s bodies were shaking.

"What took you three so long!?!" their instructor shouted angrily and impatiently.

The other fillies and colts laughed at Dash, Spit, and Soarin, who's faces were red in embarrassment. The three youngsters hid their blushing red faces. No matter how much the three tried to hide their almost pink faces, the other fillies and colts still kept laughing.

Coach Strike blew his whistle. "Alright everypony, settle down. Do you all know why I told you meet outside today?"

The campers just shrugged.

"We're going to be doing flight exercises today everypony. Now, get into groups of three."

Everypony did as they were asked. While Soarin, Dash, and Spitfire were already a group.

"Okay, now that everypony has gotten into groups. I would like to introduce you to some of our new campers."

"Now youngsters, tell us about yourselves". Mr. Strike looks at the several new campers, motioning them with his hoof to speak up.

"Hi I'm Surprise. I am not what you call a fast-flyer, but a speedster. I am from Las Pegasus, I have several cousins in my family. One of them goes by the name High Winds. While the other goes by the name of Pinkie Pie", Surprise said nervously.

"Hi everypony, I'm Fire Streak. Here standing next to me is my identical twin brother Lightning Streak. We're also from Las Pegasus. But, our parents were originally from Cloudsdale", Fire Streak said confidently.

"Thanks for the friendly introduction newbies. Let's get started. Now, give me 4 laps around the obstacle course." Strike blows his whistle and the campers immediately fly up to the starting path of the open air obstacle course.

Soarin struggled trying to get himself off the ground. He didn't realize that he was flapping his wings too quickly. His two other group members just look at the pale blue coat confused. Mr. Strike notices Soarin flapping his wings too quickly. He flies over from his post to see if the colt needed any help. "Soarin Skies, do you need any help?"

"Nah, I'm good", Soarin says, pretending he didn't need any help.

"You sure? Sounds like you need help."

"I don't need any help Mr. Strike!" the pale blue colt shouts in frustration.

"You don't shout at-" Mr. Strike was interrupted by the whoosh of several black trails of smoke coming above the open air obstacle course. He turns his head up and notices that the pegasai that were flying above him were wearing blue yellow lightning uniforms. Each uniform was marked with winged lightning bolts. Including triple sided yellow lightning bolts.

The other fillies who were about to do their second lap were also interrupted by the brightly uniformed pegasai flying above them. They paused to turn their heads up, staring in awe.

"Who are they?", the fillies asked.

"Yeah, who are they?" Rainbow Dash asks.

"What are we talking about?" Spitfire asks puzzled.

Soarin points his hoof to the figures flying above them. "Spit, look up. Those are the wonderbolts".

"The wonderbolts!?!" Rainbow Dash and Spitfire said in unison. The two fillies were surprised at what their pale blue friend had just mentioned.

Strike takes a deep breath to get over his anger. "Everypony, those are the wonderbolts. The greatest flying aerial team in all of Equestria".

The fillies and colts gasp. "They're such amazing flyers".

Strike looks at his watch. His watch read that it was already 9:05AM. Their class was suppose to end at 9:30AM. But instead, he decided to cut his Flight Exercise session short due to the black smoke trail interference.

"Okay, campers. We're gonna have to cut this Flight Exercise short", he said bluntly. "Go ahead and take a break. Be sure to go to the classroom."

"Yay!" the campers cheered.

Everybody flew to the Camp Center and entered the doors. Next, they made a left and walked to a red door that had the sign labeled " Flight Learning Center". All of the fillies and colts landed onto the floor and walked in, closing the door behind them.

Soarin was looking in his saddlebag for his snacks. He rummaged through his bag with his muzzle until he smelled a lunch box that contained a small piece of apple pie. He carried the lunch box with his pie and went to go sit with his two friends who were already seated at a table with the three new campers.

Fire Streak had an enthusiastic look on his face. "Did you guys see them up there? They were amazing?"

Surprise eyes glowed. "It'd be a dream come true to be them someday".

Rainbow Dash nodded. "I agree with Surprise here".

Spitfire nodded her head as well. "Me too. It would be really cool to be the next best flyers in Equestria. They've got some skill-".

While the campers were taking a break and eating their snacks, there is a sudden knock on the door. It interrupts the campers social break. But the sound of the knocking gets louder. 'Knock knock knock!' One colt starts shaking, not being able to have say any words that came to mind. He thought it was a dangerous intruder coming to the camp to kidnap the campers.

"Can anypony open this door?" the voice said. "I'm getting impatient here."

"Is that you Mr. Strike?" a colt asks.

"Nope, this is not your flight instructor Mr. Strike. Mr. Strike is teaching other campers right now. I'm actually a special guest who was told to be in the Learning Center today."

The colt asks the voice behind the door again. "What's your name?"

"My name is Thundershine, I am the co-captain of the wonderbolts. I was told to come to this room. Can you open the door?" Thundershine said.

The colt finally opens and gasps at the female wonderbolt he sees right in front of him.

Thundershine smiles at the colt. "Hey kid."

The colt shyly waves and trots back to his seat.

Soarin, Spitfire, and Dash drop their mouths open. ' What is a wonderbolt doing here? ' the three friends thoughts. Their mouths were still open in shock. After a second, they snap out of their fanatic trance.

Thundershine turns her head and notices Soarin, Spitfire, and Dash still looking at her dazed. She laughs, then clears her throat. "Ahem, are you three okay? It looked like you three youngsters were about to do a fanatic scream, since you saw me, a wonderbolt, right before your eyes". She waves her hoof in front of their faces to get their attention.

"We're okay", Soarin, Spitfire, and Dash said in unison.

The co-captain of the bolts laughs harder at Soarin, Spit, and Dash. "You three are so funny. You sure know how to make the co-captain of the Bolts laugh. I can't wait to tell my teammates about the face you just made earlier today."

Thunder takes a couple of deep breaths and decides to formally introduced herself to the campers. "Hi campers, I'm Co-captain Thundershine and also an official members of the Bolts. I believe you know why I was sent to Summer Flight Camp today?"

Everypony in the room shake their heads in confusion.

She clears her throat. "Anyway, the camp director sent me here to teach you guys to really know how to flap your wings. Since I am highest ranking bolt, I am also one of the top instructors at Wonderbolt Academy. I was a flight instructor here at Summer Flight Camp years before I became a founding member of the Bolts. But enough about me, you guys ready to have some fun learning how to fly?"

"Yeah!" everypony cheered.

"Alright everypony, out of the classroom. It's time to go outside".

The campers immediately run out the door excitedly. Soarin, Spit, and Dash were the last ponies to walk out the door. Spit and Dash walk happily out the door. While Soarin, who attempts to fly out the door struggles with his wings. After one try, he gives up and just trots out the door just like the rest of his classmates.


To be continued.
