Rainbow Dash POV)
I was walking peacefully in Ponyville Park when I noticed a rose on the ground, and then several roses were falling on me.
"How strange," I thought as I picked up one of the roses on the floor.
Suddenly a green pony with yellow mane and violet eyes appeared out of nowhere and I took a fright.
"AAA- I mean ... I did not scare you," I said, lying to the pony.
This pony was Zephyr Breeze, the younger brother of Fluttershy. He's been flirting with me ever since we met several years ago, when my parents: Bow Hothoof and Windy Whistles visited Fluttershy's parents, and every time I went with them and it was there that I met Zephyr.
But until nowadays I find his flirtation appealing and even funny.
"Hello Rainbow! What do you like the roses? Courtesy of Zephyr here" he said trying to flirt with me, I just laughed.
"Oh Zephyr, are not you at all right?" I said with a smile.
He took one of the roses and put it in my mane.
"Perfect! Now you look more beautiful than ever!" He said and I blushed.
"Hehehe, worth Zephyr!" I said
"Well Rainbow, how do you feel about teaching me some flying tricks? I know you're good at it," he said.
"Ha, can you bet? Let's go?" I said
He nodded and we both flew to the sky.
______________________________________
"Thank you so much Rainbow! I certainly learned a lot from you! Has anyone ever told you that you are a great teacher?" He said with a wink
"Less Zephyr," I said blushing.
"Well, I'd better go, see you later! Bye Zephyr, I loved our practice!" I said waving at him as I flew home.
"Yes! I knew she liked me! Nobody resists Zephyr's charm!" He said jumping in the air
______________________________________
(The next day....)
I was walking in Daring Do's Used Object Fair until I saw a family pony.
"Quibble Pants!" I told the pony
"Rainbow Dash!" He said to me
He approached me and we embraced.
"Long time no see," I said.
"True, but what's up, how have you been?" He asked
"It's been really cool, and you?" I asked
"It's been amazing! Do you think Daring Do will host the series convention next month?" He said
"Yeah, I already knew that was cool right?" I said
"But of course, that gives me a good feeling," he said.
"A good feeling? Why?" I asked curious
"Because it reminds me of the time I met you ..." He said blushing. I also began to blush and look away.
"Hehe, this is really cool ..." I said
"Yes ...." He said.
"Well what do you think we're going to have a Milkshake?" I suggested
"Great idea," he said.
Then we started to walk up the Milkshake sale.
______________________________________
"I really enjoyed it today," I said as we were on the floor near my house
"Me too, it was great," he said.
"I'd better go in, bye Quibble, I'll see you later." I said as I climbed into my house in the clouds
"Bye ..." he said blushing.
______________________________________
When I arrived at the door of the house I noticed a small ticket with a rose glued to the entrance door.
I picked it up and started reading:
_____________________________________
Dear Rainbow Dash
Would you like to come to Ponyville Grove tomorrow at 2:00 p.m.? There's something I wanted to show you.
With love, Soarin 🌹
_
_____________________________________
"Oh, yes ..." I said softly as I blushed.
______________________________________
(The next day...)
I was flying to the Ponyville grove as marked on the ticket, and when I spotted a pale blue stallion of navy mane and emerald green eyes, I landed on the ground and started walking up to it.
"Hello Soarin! Or should I say, Clipper," I said with a giggle and a smile.
He smiled back and said,
"Hello Dashie, I'm glad you came!" He said smiling
"Of course I was not going to miss it for anything!" I said
"Well, I wanted to show you something that I've been planning for a long time but I lacked the courage ..." He said
"Seriously?"
He nodded and I smiled.
"OK then!" I said
He took my helmet and led me to a beautiful garden with beautiful waterfalls.
"Wow ...." I said
"Did you like it?"
"Yes .... It's beautiful, I loved it"
With that he went to the bush and took a beautiful rose and put it in my mane.
"Thank you" I thanked Blushing
"You're welcome Dashie, it was a pleasure," he said, blushing too.
After that we both sat on the grass and talked and watched the scenery the rest of the afternoon.
______________________________________
When the day was over, Soarin took me home and we started saying goodbye.
"Thank you for today, Soarin, it was incredible ..." I said
"You're welcome, I also really liked ..." He said
"Well, I'd better go, thau Crash, officer, see you tomorrow at headquarters," he said as he left.
"Bye Clipper! Thank you!" I said
After he was gone, I let out an angelic sigh and went into the house.
Little did he know that much confusion was to come the next day.
______________________________________
(Rainbow Dash POV)
I was in my house reading a Daring Do book while I thought about what has been happening to me. Soarin, Zephyr and Quibble are great ponies and a great company too, but I still have many doubts about who I like best.
______________________________________
(POV of Zephyr Breeze)
I was walking towards my dear Rainbow's house, after our meeting I'm sure she loves me, after all no one resists the charm of Zephyr!
______________________________________
(POV of Quibble Pants)
I was walking toward Dash's house, to talk some more, I really think she's a great company and I think I'm in love and I want to make sure I knew it.
______________________________________
(Soarin POV)
I was flying towards Dashie's house to ask her out, I really like her and I do not know if she feels the same way about me, but I'll do anything to win her heart.
I was coming to her house when I saw two ponies walking towards her house, I was curious and I decided to see what they wanted.
I landed in front of them and one of them said,
"Hello man, I'm here to conquer my dear Rainbow and do you want what?" Said Zephyr Breeze
I raised an eyebrow and said,
"Well, I'm here to invite Rainbow out," I said, looking at the two ponies
"WHAT? I'm here for this too!" Said Quibble Pants
"This is ridiculous I've known Rainbow since we were colts, it's in the face that she really likes me!" Zephyr said
"You're kidding, right ?! I think Rainbow Dash likes me a lot!" Quibble Said
I was starting to get nervous so I got in the middle of it all.
"I'm a very close friend of Rainbow, and I think she deserves someone who knows her by her side!" I said
"Did not you hear what I said? I've known her since we were colts!" Zephyr said
"And you think that's why you know her better than anyone ?! I bet you do not even know her favorite flower!" I said
"Oh please, you're arguing about it. Rainbow Dash does not like either of you, because these days we go out together, it just shows that she likes me so much!" Said Quibble
"WHAT ?! I also go out with her these days!" Me and Zephyr scream in unison
______________________________________
(Rainbow Dash POV)
I was finishing reading Daring Do's book when I heard discussion noises in front of my house, I got up and went to the window and I did not believe what I saw.
Soarin, Quibble Pants and Zephyr Breeze were on the floor below my house fighting with each other.
"Oh my Celestia ...." I thought myself preparing for what was to come
______________________________________
(Rainbow Dash POV)
I just stared out the window and saw Soarin, Quibble and Zephyr fighting with each other, I needed to do something. I immediately flew over and landed right in front of them.
They stopped fighting when they saw me.
"Rainbow Dash !!!" They screamed and ran to me and started asking me several questions.
"H-hi ... Boys .... All right?" I asked with a fake smile.
"What's going on Rainbow Dash?" Soarin asked me
I bit my lip and looked back.
"W-well e-me ..." I tried to say
They kept looking at me waiting for an answer. I turned to face them again and I said as fast as I could.
"I did not want to get to that point but since you guys want to know, I like all of you okay ?!" I said
They kept staring at me in shock.
"Yes, I have doubts between the three of you, you're all great ponies and you sure are a great company to me, but I do not know who to choose!" I said looking down. Zephyr approached me and said.
"Well that's pretty easy is not it? The ideal pony for you is right here in front of you!" He said bragging.
Soarin and Quibble did not like the answer and approached Zephyr.
"You can only be kidding, right? I'm sure I like Rainbow Dash a lot more than you do!" Said Soarin
"The two are wrong, the ideal pony for Rainbow Dash is me!" Said Quibble, then the three began to fight again.
I was just watching, I did not know what to say at that moment. That's when my friends and Starlight showed up.
"MY GOD! MORE THAT'S HAPPENING HERE ???" Pinkie Pie asked. I did not answer.
Applejack looked at the three fights, and then at me.
"Are they fighting over you Sugarcubbe?" She asked and I nodded.
"Darling, do you have three passions at the same time?" Rarity asked and I nodded again.
Twilight took a step forward and used his magic to stop the three ponies.
"Enough ponies !!" She said, after they stopped she used her magic to unfreeze them.
"Rainbow Dash, can you explain what's going on?" Twilight asked me, I opened my mouth to respond but Pinkie Pie spoke for me.
"Rainbow Dash has three passions at the same time Twilight! They were fighting over her!" She said
"Alright there's a much easier way to sort this out, Rainbow Dash which one are you sure you like best? Soarin, Quibble Pants or Zephyr Breeze?" Twilight asked looking at me
"I do not know ...." I replied looking at the floor. Rarity approached Soarin and said.
"Well girls if you guys do not mind me saying but I think Soarin would look great with Rainbow Dash!" Rarity said and Pinkie Pie joined her and Soarin.
"I also think they're cute together!" She said
"Well ..... I think my brother really likes Dash .... So I guess I'll stay on his side," Fluttershy said as she stood beside Zephyr
"Well worth it," Zephyr said.
"I also think Zephyr should stay with Dash, after all if he did not really like her he would not be flirting with her every time she passes," Applejack said as she joined Fluttershy and Zephyr
"I already think Quibble would suit Rainbow pretty well," Starlight said as she stood beside Quibble, and Twilight nodded.
"I do not want to cause any conflict but I also think Quibble and Dash would make a nice couple," Twilight said as she joined Starlight and Quibble.
"Of course you were going to be on the side of Quibble Twilight, you two like the same books!" Said Rarity trying to argue, Twilight just shook his head.
"No matter if they have the same taste for books, Rainbow loves me anyway!" Zephyr said
"Do you really want to go back on that ?!" Said Quibble
"I'm just stating the truth! And you two stay away from my mare!"
"YOUR MARE ?!" Soarin and Quibble said in unison.
After that the three again discussed and this time my friends got into the fray as well.
Tears were starting to sprout in my eyes, all my friends were fighting over me, I felt so guilty, Until there came a point that I could not take it anymore and exploded.
"STOP!" I screamed and they all stopped fighting and looked at me, after that I flew out of there crying.
"See what you two did ?!" Soarin said.
"We? Oh spare me!" Said Zephyr
______________________________________
I was at home crying in my bed while I hugged Tank.
"Oh Tank, why does everything have to be so difficult?" I said as I cried, Tank just put a paw in my hull and gave me a smile. I returned the smile but then it was gone.
Was that how things were going to end? All my friends fighting over me? I could not feel less guilty.
______________________________________
It was a few hours after the incident this morning, and I was still lying in my bed hugging Tank. When I suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Who could it be?" I thought as I got up and walked towards the door.
I opened the door revealing all my friends, Soarin, Zephyr and Quibble.
"Hi Dash, we're sorry for what happened today and we've come here to apologize personally," said Soarin.
"Soarin's right, we should not have started a riot over your relationship ..." said Twilight
"Alright ...." I said quietly.
"But Rainbow, in one thing agent is right, you can not date three stallions at the same time, you're going to have to choose" said Applejack
"Yes, I know, but I really like all of them .... It's very difficult for me to choose one of them," I said.
"And that's why we're here too! We'll help you with that!" Rarity said
"As?" I asked
"Well we plan two steps to define who is the right pony for you, whoever is more successful in these two stages is really the ideal pony for you," said Starlight
"And what's the first step?" I asked curiously
"The first step is a super romantic triple dinner with Zephyr, Soarin and Quibble. The pony you feel more at ease in that dinner wins the step!" Said Pinkie Pie
"Okay, well, let's have dinner," I said.
______________________________________
I was just getting ready for dinner with Soarin, Quibble and Zephyr when I heard a knock on the door.
"In between!" I said
Soarin, Quibble, and Zephyr entered at the same time as they held a bouquet of flowers in their hooves.
"For you!" The three of them said in unison, I gave them a timid smile as I took the three bouquets.
"Hey, thanks guys, shall we?" I said
They nodded and headed toward the Ponyville restaurant.
______________________________________
When we got to the restaurant there were no ponies around, it seemed until the restaurant had been booked just for me, Zephyr, Soarin and Quibble. But nevertheless I did not even care.
"Please, my dear Rainbow, sit down," Zephyr said as he pulled the chair toward me.
"Hehe, thank you Zephyr," I said.
Quibble and Soarin just rolled their eyes.
"Rainbow, what do you say we'll talk about Daring's exhibition next week?" Asked Quibble
"Of course" I said
So we both started talking about Daring Do.
Without my noticing my friends and Starlight were hiding at a table in the background watching everything, and they were holding plates of their favorite Shipp.
Rarity and Pinkie Pie were holding the SoarinDash board, Starlight and Twilight were holding the QuibbleDash board and Fluttershy and Applejack were holding the ZephyrDash board.
When Quibble and I stopped talking, Soarin approached me and held my helmet.
"So Rainbow, you want to order something?" Soarin said
"Now that you've raised the subject, I'm starving" I
"Okay, I'll call the garson," Soarin said as he nodded to the garson, who quickly came to our table.
"What would you like, ladies and gentlemen?" The garson asked
"Your best dish sir," Soarin said, the garson nodded and then left.
Quibble, Soarin, and Zephyr were sitting looking at me with angelic expressions on their faces, and I was doing my best not to blush in front of them all, but it did not work.
After a while the garson finally brought our order, and then we started to eat quietly.
______________________________________
After we had finished, a slow song began to play and Soarin came up to me.
"Would you like to dance?" He asked me as he blushed, I blushed back and said,
"Sure"
We both started walking down the dance floor and started dancing slowly according to the rhythm of the song.
Quibble and Zephyr did not resist the attack and walked up to me and Soarin.
"Okay, okay, I think you've danced too much for today, right? Now it's Zephyr's turn to dance with your princess!" Zephyr said as he took me in his hoofs and began to dance with me.
I danced with him for a few minutes until Quibble also pulled me to dance.
I danced with each of them for several minutes, until the song ended.
I do not know who won this step, in fact now I was even more in doubt about each of them.
______________________________________
The next day....
Today was the big day that would set the right spot for me, I was getting a little nervous about it all, I hope it's all right.
"Well today is the day," I said to myself as I sat on my bed. I quickly got up and flew up to the Twilight castle for the final test.
______________________________________
When I got there my friends were sitting at a table for the evaluation, and Soarin, Quibble and Zephyr were standing in the kitchen in front of cooking ingredients.
"Hi Rainbow, glad you arrived, now we can begin to explain what needs to be done?" Said Twilight
Everyone nodded.
"Ok, Quibble, Soarin and Zephyr you guys should make the biggest cake ever, whoever makes the best cake really is the ideal pony for the Rainbow" Twilight continued
We all nod again. After a few seconds Spike blew the whistle and the three stallions quickly began to prepare the cake.
My friends were holding up plates of their favorite shipp while shouting their name.
"Go SoarinDash!" shouted Rarity and Pinkie Pie
"Go QuibbleDash!" shouted Twilight and Starlight
"Go ZephyrDash!" Screamed Applejack and Fluttershy
And I was all awkward watching them, when suddenly I heard a noise coming from outside the castle.
"What was this?" I thought as I walked out of the castle to see what it was.
______________________________________
(Soarin POV)
I was trying to prepare the cake as quickly as possible, until I realized that Rainbow Dash was not around.
"Where can she be?" I thought
I was starting to get worried, so I quickly walked out of the test to look for Dash.
The other ponies had suspicious looks on their faces as they whispered to each other, "Where is he going now?"
Zephyr and Quibble until they were relieved that they did not have another competitor in the competition, and then continued to prepare their cakes.
But I did not care if I was going to lose the competition, what mattered most to me at that moment was that Dash was fine.
______________________________________
(Rainbow Dash POV)
I was unconscious on the floor outside the castle, with a blindfold in my eyes.
"Argh, who are you ?! What do you want ?!" I said
A pony with a mask on his face laughed.
"Soon you'll find out! No one will ever find out you're here!" The pony said
"I'll!" said a voice
I could not see, but by the voice I was sure of who I was.
It was soarin
"Leave her alone!" He said
"If you do not do what?" The pony said sarcastically
"That's what you'll find out!" Soarin said as he jumped on the pony and knocked him to the ground, after which he removed his mask, and the pony gave him a look of confusion.
"Hey! No one told me you were going to knock me down!" The pony said
The pony was Trixie
Soarin raised an eyebrow and suddenly I laughed and he turned to me.
"Dash? Are you okay?" Soarin asked as I left Trixie and walked over to me, then
he helped me up.
"Hehe congratulations Soarin, you won!" I said blushing as I looked at him.
"What? What do you mean, I have not finished making the cake yet?" He said in confusion.
"Hehe, the real test was this, only the pony that really loves me would worry and come after me, and that pony was you, so you won!" I said smiling
"Seriously?" He asked and I nodded.
After that I pulled him into a big hug.
"Thank you for caring for me, Soarin," I said softly.
"Imagine, I would never let anything bad happen to you," Soarin said as he hugged me back.
"I'm still here, you know?" Trixie said as she stuck her tongue out.
Me and Soarin broke and hugged and just laughed.
"Well, does that mean we're a couple now?" Soarin asked
"DO you still have doubts?" I said smiling
______________________________________
Me and Soarin went back to the castle and told everyone the big news, Quibble and Zephyr were very upset, but I approached them and said,
"Well, boys, I really like you and I do not want you to be that way because of me, we're still going to be great friends and I hope one day you'll find the ideal pony for you," I said with a wink.
"Alright Rainbow we understand, we just want you to be happy!" Quibble said with a smile, after that he gave me a hug.
"Thanks Quibble," I said as I hugged him back.
"I never said anything like that! Zephyr said as he left the castle.
Fluttershy hit a hull on her forehead with embarrassment.
"No comments ...." I said as I rolled my eyes
______________________________________
That same afternoon, Soarin and I were sitting on a cloud as we watched the beautiful sunset.
I had my head on Soarin's chest and his wing was on my back.
I gently stroked his chest with his head and he kissed my head.
"I love you Dashie," he said as he kissed me.
I blushed and said,
"I love you too Soarin," I said as I smiled.
Now in that position I knew who my true love was. And his name was Soarin ....
