Wait a second...

What was today again? Huuuuuhh... well... three days ago there was the camping trip the crusaders and their sisters had, and that was the ‘Sleepless in Ponyville’ episode. I wasn’t invited and that episode was boring to me so I didn’t go. ‘Wonderbolt Academy’ hasn’t happened yet, so it should, happen soon?

I was having a walk through Ponyville when I saw Twilight and the others (Spike absent, again) underneath a cloud, so it was dark there. “DON'T FORGET TO WRITE!!!“... ouch... my ears. I can only imagine that was Pinkie Pie. I saw the rainbow wave coming from Rainbow trail all the way to the giant cloud in the distance which that I can only say it’s Cloudsdale. Let’s see what’s this is. I disappear.


“Would you like explain yourself of what you’re even doing up here?” I was now in the office of Spitfire. And she did not look particularly happy. So apparently during the teleport, I messed up the local bit and ended up crashing down on Spitfire. ”Well...let’s say I messed up my teleport to Rainbow’s locker.”

“Ahh... the new rookie. Apparently she has, many ponies that support her.” Spitfire said, “earlier, before Rainbow even showed up, I opened this drawer and the head of an overly pink pony popped out and started talking about Rainbow, calling her ‘Dashie’.”

”Yes, but please, ignore Pinkie and all she does.”

“I will note it for further interactions.” There was a knock on the door. “You may enter.” Spitfire said. The door opened to reveal Soarin. “Ma’am!” He salutes, “the new recruits are all here and currently waiting for you at the field.”

“Really?” Spitfire’s glasses slid down her face and revealed her eyes as she looked to the clock hung on the wall behind her, “That’s an Academy Record. They must be really eager. Thanks Soarin, you may go.” Soarin salutes again a quickly returned from where he came, closing the door behind him. “Now, I would like to continue this, but I must get to the rookies. You are free to go and do whatever as long as it’s not here or in my academy.”

”Fine. Whatever you say ma’am.”

“Now leave, I have new recruits to train.” Spitfire said, “we have many newbies including the formentioned Rainbow Dash.”

”Of course.” So with that being that, I disappeared from her view. And no, I didn’t teleport, I simply became invisible. Magic is easy. I like magic... it’s fun. Spitfire didn’t know the difference for her being a pegasus, she left for her team, with me following behind.

We were at the field and i’m beside the tarp covering the Dizzatron, Lightning Dust has just challenged Spitfire and here they are on their 500 laps.

Nothing to report here.

Moving on.

“The Wonderbolts are the fastest, best precision flyers in the world. But spin-outs can still happen. And when they do, a Wonderbolt must be able to recover quickly. This...” Spitfire said, the pony beside her revealing the Dizzitron, “is the Dizzitron. It's gonna make you very – I repeat – very dizzy. Your task is to try and recover and fly straight again, as soon as possible. Once you have recovered you must come in for a smooth landing. Now, who's first?” She points to Meadow Flower “You. You're up.”

“Me?” Meadow gulps. She looks overly uncomfortable with being strapped into it. “Now!” Meadow quickly strapped in. The Dizzitron came alive, Meadow was flung out after 12 seconds of spinning. A couple of dizzy barrel rolls later and she was on the ground wanting to vomit. Hmm... I wonder if I gone in as Black Harbringer to try... probably pretty bad since I only flew a few times and not doing stunts, just flying. Anyway, I was thinking so much everypony were walking/flying inside academy building. Oops.


Inside, everypony are splitting off to go to their dorm areas, and for reasons that are obvious, Rainbow Dash And Lightning Dust are roommates here. The dorm was quite nice, better than my actual room in my past house, the Wonderbolts really spoil their team with living customs. “Ahhg, My wing,” Lighting said, stretching her wing, “I wasn’t even able to stretch my wings before.”

“Yeah!" Rainbow said, "But it was nothing too awful. Ok, top bunk, or bottom bunk?" They then surprisingly played a game of checkers, never thought I see the day that Rainbow, or Lighting Dust play checkers. The two speed-demons then finally decided to go to bed. I'll head into the closet and hide so i can also sleep. It can't be that bad.


So I was caught... should have known. Rainbow recognized me as the pony that helped them during the Trixie takeover four days ago, so it wasn't as bad as it could have been. And since it was time for morning routine, they had no choice but to let me tag along.

We got to the place Spitfire instructed them to be, which was strange... wasn't there supposed to be the whole lead pony\wing pony thing before this? And the capture the flag thing as well? We must be at the obstacle course hence the trumpet pony doing his thing. "Today we'll be doing our famous air obstacle course." Spitfire said, everypony besides me, getting to attention, her eyes lock onto me. "What in Celestia's name are you doing here again?! Didn't I tell you to get off this academy?"

"Well surely you didn't think I was just gonna leave when there's something that can quell my bordness?"

Spitfire and the rest all just stared before Spitfire just return to her speech, "The object of this exercise is to work on your precision flying under extreme circumstances. And don't worry about winning. It's not a race." Oh Rainbow and Lighting would beg to differ, "Now everypony, get on your marks!" She blew the whistle and the flyers all launched off and into the air.

**********Nothing else to report.**********

So I guess now is the time for the tornado. It was confirmed when I saw the duo stop moving longitudinally and instead rotating in circles. Which then formed the tornado. And then, the Friendship balloon appeared. Things played out how they supposed to and everything was fine in the end.

......

What was I doing again?
......

......

Heh... strange.

...

...

...

"This is not working for me..." Why have I... Hmmm... ehhh... Nahh must be my own self. I noticed that the texture of the clouds was no longer underneath me. I must be falling. Why am I so calm about it? Why am I just letting it happen?

The ground came hard and fast. I laid there for what felt like hours, but it was only a couple of minutes, before I was found and taken to the hospital, well, what was left of me to the hospital, i am missing my two back legs, my horn has been split in two while still being connected to my head. I couldn’t be saved. They tried... oh they tried.
