Learn to fly

Previous Chapter

Thespia had a great time spending with her new friends. One day, while out on a walk, she noticed Rainbow Dash, Twilight, Fluttershy, and Teric, were discussing something, but she couldn't make out what they were saying.

She walked up to them.

"Hi guys", she said.

"Well just the pony I want to see", said Rainbow.

"What do you want to see me for?" Thespia asked with a confused face.

"I'm teaching you how to fly so you can be as awesome as me" Dash said puffing out her chest.

Thespia felt a little scared and hid behind Teric's tail.

Soon after that all of Thespia's friends were there to watch her fly, including Mrs. Wolf.

Dash gave Thespia a few coaching methods on how to properly lift off the ground. Thespia flapped her wings, hearing her friends (well most of them) giving her words of encouragement.

But no matter what Thespia kept looking down and stopped and fell to the ground.

Lastly, Thespia just shouted, "I can't do it!"

Thespia ran off crying ignoring her friends pleads to come back.

Her friends spread out to find her in every nook and cranny in Ponyville. Mrs. Wolf had an idea on where she might be and went off on her own.

She went to the forest and heard sobbing from a nearby tree. There sat Thespia in uncontrollable crying.

"Oh thank goodness I found you", Mrs. Wolf said smiling warmly.

Thespia turned to see her.

"I knew you'd come here."

"Why Mrs. Wolf?" asked Thespia.

"Because this is where me and my husband come when things start to bother us."

"Hey guys", they heard somepony shout.

They looked up to see it was Lighting Bliss.

"Mrs. Wolf found her."

"Well done my lady", Dr. Wolf said giving her a kiss on the cheek.

Twilight said, "We were so worried about you."

Thespia felt better knowing that she had friends who really care about her.

"Hey come on", Lighting Bliss said. "Let's head down to that new diner."

Thespia knew that someday she would have to fly to make sure she doesn't get into danger. But for now, she'll have to enjoy her friends company.

The next day, Thespia was walking through the woods. She heard a growling sound. It sounded like a wolf. She was a bit concerned.

"Doctor? Mrs. Wolf?"

She turned to a pair of glowing green eyes staring at her.

"Timber Wolf."

She turned and ran. She ran and ran until she realized she was at the edge of a cliff. With no way to escape, she decided to jump. Little did she know that Lighting Bliss was flying by.

"Thespia? Oh no guys she jumped she jumped."

"Thespi!" Derpy screamed. They all raced down to the cliff hoping to see if there was any sign of Thespia. Silver Quill kept a look out for anything that might of got her.

Teric said, "If anything happens to her I'll never forgive myself."

Dr. Wolf smiled. "Don't worry. We'll find her."

They found nothing, but then they heard someone say, "Hi guys."

"Thespia, is that you?" Teric asked.

"I'm up here Teri."

They couldn't believe their eyes. They saw that Thespia was flying.

"Aw yeah!" Dash said.

"I knew you could do it", Lighting beamed.

"Thanks Mrs. Bliss."

From that moment on, everypony in Ponyville called Thespia Swan because she flies with beauty and grace.
