Prologue

A certain rainbow maned mare zipped through the clouds, leaving a trail of rainbow in her wake. Rainbow Dash was very happy, she could barely contain herself from squealing in excitement becuse today she will be visited by one of her best friend that shares similar interest with her; Quibble Pants. It has been about five months since they last saw each other and Rainbow has already plan all the awesome activities they will do together- just the two of them. Unbenkownst to her, the day ahead of her was nothing close to perfect since there will be some troublemakers along the way.

In the midst of her flying, Rainbow bumps into somepony, causing her to stop midflight to regain focus. She was about to make a remark if its not for her idol who was the one that bumped her. She was really ecstatic over the fact that her idol is real and still living at the time. She thought it was just a legend until what she and her freinds have been through the past few days. Legends does ring with truth, after all. The one who has bumped her is none other than, Flash Magnus. One of the pillars bearer; bravery. If its not for him, Rainbow might not be the brave pegasus she is today. He is such an inspiration to her, none like anypony else- except for her parents and the wonderbolt, of course.

"gasp I'm so sorry, Flash Magnus!" she apologised, frantically. "I should have seen where I was going, I was so catch up that I didn't even notice you!"

"Its okay, Rainbow," he said, slightly amused at her show of clumsiness . "You seem in a rush. Whats the commotion?"

"Oh its nothing," she started. "Except that one of my best friend is coming to ponyville and I am planning the best day for the both of us!"

"That's great," he stated.

"You're going to like him once he get here, Flash!" she exclaimed, excitedly. "He is just one of the best friend somepony could asked for- he might be a bit of a blabber mouth though."

"He..?" Flash asked, frowning. He was not sure if he liked it or not; he don't even know if he could trust the guy around Rainbow! Is he crushing on her? Or is he just over-protective?

'Snap out of it, Flash! She will never go out with the likes of you- probably too old for her taste.'

"Yup," her eyes suddenly became big (and sparkly, if he was not mistaken) like she has got the greatest idea ever.

"What?" Flash asked, curious as to what she was thinking.

"How about the most awesomest, radical, exciting, amazing get together for the three of us?!" Rainbow suggested, more like exclaimed it to his face. "Just think about it, Flash- together, the three of us will be a group and adventuring to great length!"

Flash hovered there, speechless. He was thinking it through, wether or not it will be a great idea- going through endless possibilities. Meanwhile, Rainbow was blabbering on and on of what the adventure will be like and how they are going to enjoy the activities.

"Alright," Flash decided. "I'll come along."

As of right now, Rainbow Dash and Flash Magnus is standing on ponyville's train station whilst enticipating the arrival of Quibble Pants. Normally, Quibble would just walk to her house rather than taking the train because of how slow it is but since she insisted on taking it, he did not have much of a choice. He was not really keen on it but since it would make Raibbow Dash smile, he forced himself for her as an exception. Her smile always made his day, not to mention her blabbering on Daring Do's non-fictional adventure series which he is always happy to hear about. Come to think of it, he is beginning to fall in love with her even though he thought it was just a silly colt's crush. He has always admired Rainbow for her characteristics and features, but he never would have thought he would fall for her.

As the train makes an abrupt stop, Quibble saw Rainbow Dash giddily wave to him which he was more than happy to return it. He quickly got off the train to greet her but to his surprise, there is another pony standing beside her. This pony was wearing strange armoury even if there are no threats nearby. Quibble got chills running through his vines over this peculiar pony. Somehow, Rainbow noticed the awkward silence between the two and decided to interrupts it herself.

Without much of a thought, she quickly asked her visiting friend, "So... Quibble, have you read the latest Daring Do book already?"

A bit confused, he replied, "the book will not be published until next month, remember?"

"Oh yeah," Rainbow blush over her forgetfulness, a bit embarrassed.

"This is Flash Magnus, Quibble," she quickly changed the subject to cover up for her previous embarrasment. "Flash, this is Quibble Pants."

"Its very nice to meet you, Flash," Quibble said, not realising he was from the famous legend that hes set to be true.

"Its my pleasure, Quibble Pants," Flash replied before he continued, " I have heard so much of you from Rainbow Dash, she would not stop on blabbering about you from the start of what to come and what to expect. But nevertheless, it is always a pleasure to meet sompony new that is a friend of my friend, for this is the way to unite and live in harmony."

However, Quibble did not feel even the slightest comfort around Flash for fear that he might snatch away Rainbow Dash for himself. He glared at him- Flash was real business. He needs to get rid of him before Rainbow starts falling for the said stallion.

He has known Rainbow for a long time; she has never like anypony and he was no exception. However, it did not stop him from being the least bit hopeful that someday, she might like him- even the slightest.

Wait, what?

Seriusly though, anything you noticed in my writings please inform me, I want to know.

As the trio trotted towards Sugarcube Corner to have some breakfast before starting on their exciting day, Rainbow Dash noticed that Quibble was quieter than usual- too quite if she do say so herself. Usually, he would already start blabbering about how unthinkable Daring Do's action was or maybe praising her for another job well done. Although it was quite a relief to have some quiet, she was worried for Quibble. However, she was also amused how he could be so oblivious to the fact that the pony he was introduced to was a living legend.

"Quibble?," Rainbow inquired, "are you okay?"

"what-" Quibble looks at her "-makes you think that I'm not?"

"You are quiet since we left the train," she stated. "It's not like you to just be quiet, you know."

"sigh it's nothing, really," he replied even though his facial expression says otherwise.

Deciding not to question anymore and spare him, Rainbow went along with it. "Alright."

Without noticing, they were already at Sugarcube Corner and are already requesting three platters of sliced chocolate cakes. It was weird to have dessert in the morning, but this is the norms for Rainbow Dash to keep her energy and sugar level high to keep up with her tiring day. Quibble Pants and Flash Magnus didn't complained much; this would just mean they will have dessert twice!

While having breakfast, Quibble noticed something about Flash Magnus that reminded him of another pony. A pegasus that has orange coat, possibly a guard of some sort, his first name is flash and has shaded blue eyes- kind of like a pony he knows who was once his best friend.

"Hey Magnus," Quibble said, trying to get the pony's attention.

Flash looked at him with a raised eyebrow as if saying, 'I want to eat so make this quick or I'll ignore you totally'.

"Are you by any chance related with somepony named Flash Sentry?"

Rainbow's eyes bulged out and she nearly choke; thank goodness it was just cake. She took a big gulp of clear water and burst out laughing for the fact that Qubble was still oblivious to the fact that there was a legendary pony in front of him. Flash Magnus was just as amused by Rainbow's sudden outburst

After having breakfast, they started their journey to a Daring Do convention that will be held at Ponyville's own town hall. This was the first time that a Daring Do convention was held at Ponyville and how lucky was Rainbow that Quibble decided to visit her the same time as it was held. She had not known about this convention if it not for Quibble who has told her about it in one of his letters. She knew that there will be many ponies and the place will be pack not a moment too soon, so that is why she decided to become extra early this very day.

As she predicted, there are many ponies there and it was only eight in the morning. Since they have much more to do for the rest of the, they will not be attending any panels or even do any cosplaying. They would just take a couple of photos with other fans or maybe even the very author that is actually Daring Do behind the mask, A.K. Yearling. If they were lucky enough, they would play some games while they were there. However, they were just going to buy some Daring Do merchandise to save time.

Rainbow was having so much fun meeting all the other ponies that are just as devoted as her when it comes to Daring Do while Quibble was entranced by all the replica of some historical item that were mentioned in the series. They did brought some merchandise if you are wondering. Rainbow brought a cute Daring Do plushy and her very own Daring Do inspired vest while Quibble brought an Ahuizotl action figure and a mug that has the writings, 'I love Daring Do' in bold.

As they were having so much fun, Flash Magnus was left all alone since he was not a fanatic of Daring Do like Rainbow and Quibble. Though he tried to ignore the bothersome feeling of loneliness, he felt envy at Quibble's advantage to catch Rainbow's attention easily. He tried to shake it off by reminding himself that it was their time together. He might seem like he does not care for the rainbow haired mare, but he secretly check on her to see if she was fine and the sight in front of him seems to make his heart shatters into a million pieces. Geez, talk about exaggerating. Seriously though, he really do look heartbroken. In front of him is a sight of Rainbow Dash and Quibble Pants having a conversation with A.K. Yearling and by the looks of it, Rainbow was having so much fun together without him. Together... What a horrible word to those who are single and are hoping for a relationship while it has a wonderful meaning to those who are already in a relationship. To hear the words coming out of one's mouth is even painful, especially if its from your crush to another pony. Without hesitation, Flash immediately left the town hall and decided to wait for 'the daring duo', as Rainbow and Quibble would call themselves every so often.

"Hahaha, oh god-" inhales deeply "-I guess it's time for us to depart, Yearling", Rainb

"Or should we call you, Daring Do?", Quibble joked while snickering at his own joke.

Daring just laugh it off and said, "Call me whatever you like Quib, as long as the scret is kept between us."

Ranbow Dash and Quibble wave as Daring Do walked away from them. Quibble take a look at Rainbow contemplating if he should initiate his plan to ask her out on a date. But there is one catch. Flash Magnus was there.

"Hey Rainbow, can we talk for a bit? " Quibble started.

Rainbow, clueless, looks at him for a bit before agreein. However, Flash knows his plan before Rainbow even realize it. Simple- naive. She is just that. Which is why he interrupted it quickly by ushering Rainbow to have lunch together.

"Yo Dash, I made this, " Flash hands out a well made bento box to her. " Come on, let's eat together."

Rainbow was absolutely captivated by the food. Flash 'flashed'a smug look towards Quibble and added, "you can join if you want to- but I only made 2. One for me and another for her."

Quibble grits his teeth to remain his composure. Inside, he was fuming.

"Yeah, that's fine. I can buy from Sugarcube Corner."

"Nice." Flash smiled somewhat cheekily. "Meet you after lunch then."

"Byeee," Flash waved as he gently guide Rainbow away from Quibble. Rainbow, baffled, don't exactly know how to react to what she just witnessed.

'Eh, probably a guy thing. ' Rainbow thought.
