My Little Pony: Queen of Shadows
Season 2: Episode 7 - Romance Before Conflict
Previous ChapterNext Chapter“So, some being asked us to beat the snot out of some other being enough for the first being to cast some spell to put them in a giant time out essentially.” Rainbow Dash said.
“Normally…everything complicated flies over your head, Rainbow.” Twilight said.
“Normally because it’s needlessly complicated. We just need to beat the crap of some bad guy enough so they can be put back in time out once they get out of time out. Nothing complicated to be had here.” Rainbow Dash said.
“I’m just curious as to what lengths someone would take for their soul to be split in two…” Fluttershy said.
“From what we were told, Yin-Yang; the one we are tasked with weakening; is responsible for killing nine others of his own kind plus one guy that wasn’t.” Sombra said.
“Ten deaths?! No wonder the guy was meant to be put in timeout until the end of time.” Rainbow Dash said.
“Must be kind of weird for his pa to hand down such a punishment; forced forever to watch as everything passes him by.” Applejack said.
“At least he wasn’t exiled like that minion he created. Ouroboros I think was the name.” Pinkie Pie said.
“Yeah. The thing we should probably be a bit concerned about if it’s been hanging around.” Rarity said.
“It doesn’t seem to be a threat at the moment. Our focus should be on Yin-Yang for the moment.” Twilight said.
“Twilight’s right; no sense in worrying on the non-threat.” Rainbow Dash said. “Now if you’ll excuse me…” She said and flew off.
“Where is SHE going?” Twilight asked.
Rainbow Dash soon arrived at Rainbow Falls looking around for a bit and smiled as she noticed Soarin there and no one else.
“Phew, thank god.” Rainbow Dash said.
“Yeah. If word got out by the time a spot opened up in the Wonderbolts proper, things would get super hectic in a hurry.” Soarin said.
“Trust me, I know. We’re just lucky we manage to keep it on the down low around HQ.” Rainbow Dash said. “So, did ya bring the basket?” She asked.
“Yeah.” Soarin said, taking out a large blanket and then sitting a basket on top of it.
“Awesome. I’m still surprised we can have these picnics without anyone knowing.” Rainbow Dash said.
“Yeah. And besides, afterwords, we’ll be going for some flying around Rainbow Falls.” Soarin said.
“Just try to keep up.” Rainbow Dash said as the pair began to eat.
“Nice to have a picnic outside. I can only hope my friends find their special someponies soon.” Twilight said.
“Give it time Twilight.” Sombra said. “I’m sure they’ll find somepony to be with sooner then you think.” He added.
“Yeah. Rainbow ran out pretty fast though. A bit weird but I doubt she’s got a special somepony.” Twilight said.
“What makes you so sure?” Sombra asked.
“I know Rainbow Dash. She’s not one for romance.” Twilight said.
“Maybe not the same way every pony else is at least.” Sombra said.
“What do you mean?” Twilight asked.
“I mean that Ms. Dash could very well have a special somepony, but she doesn’t act the same way somepony in love normally would. I have a feeling given her nature, Rainbow is someone who shows her feelings differently then others do.” Sombra said.
“I doubt that.” Twilight said.
“And that makes me the winner.” Rainbow Dash said.
“Dang…your fast Dashie. Like real fast.” Soarin said.
“Heh, tell me something I don’t know.” Rainbow Dash said, with a blush on her face.
“You always act differently then how I expect you to and that makes this relationship fun.” Soarin said.
“That’s good to know. A relationship that isn’t fun isn’t worth the time.” Rainbow Dash said.
“I just hope you can hold back if you need to for the others.” Soarin said. “Don’t need you showing off in the middle of a performance.” He said.
“That’s why we’ve been getting so close; so you can help me with that. Plus, I’m helping you get to my level too. I think you were faster then last time.” Rainbow Dash said.
“I’m glad. At some point, I want to do a sonic Rainboom of my own.” Soarin said.
“Well it’s not just about the speed, it’s also about willpower; the desire to push yourself far and beyond; that really makes the difference.” Rainbow Dash explained.
“Well right now, my greatest desire is to impress you by doing my own Sonic Rainboom.” Soarin said.
“I simply can’t wait for you to do that.” Rainbow Dash said as she closed in for a kiss with Soarin. “Later.” She said and flew off. Soarin did shortly after.
…
Nearby a certain Pegasus Mare was smirking to herself while she had watched everything from the shadows.
“Revenge is a dish best served cold.” She said.
