The Injury

Rainbow Dash perched from the highest cloud in the sky to see if she could accomplish her newest trick, the Color Boom. To do this she would have to dive down, curve up, go up to where she's be nearly frozen, then to dive down to make the sky the colors of the rainbow for the rest of the day. Rainbow Dash stretched her wings out then tested her feathers. Everything was in check. She got into her take off position, then dove towards the ground. Then she saw it. The tree. She tried to turn but it was too late. the branch hit her straight in the stomach while her wing scraped against the tree as she fell.
****************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Rainbow Dash awoke to 4 faces staring down at her, Twilight's, Thunderlane's, Big Mac's and Caramels.
"Twilight, what happened? How am I here?" Rainbow Dash studied her right wing, it was all wrapped up.

"Thunderlane saw you fall and Caramel and Big Mac helped carry you here, then Dr.Firecracker took a look at your wing."

"Twilight, how long will I be grounded?" Rainbowdash held her breath.

"Till December." Twilight looked away.

"WHAT???!!! How could they say...?! So, 6 months?" Rainbow Dash tried moving her wing, it jolted a fiery pain throughout her body. Rainbow Dash winced,"So who's this Dr.Firecracker? Then a magical moment happened. The door opened to reveal a handsome stallion with a pale yellow coat and a flaming mane. He had nice blue eyes and was probably just out of highschool. "That would be me." Dr.Firecracker replied. "You will stay on the ground for 6 months, maybe even 8 or if you work it too much up to a year. You landed on your right wing as well as some of your ribs. you also suffered a minor concussion." Thunderlane looked at the Doctor,"So when can she leave the hospital?" he asked as he glanced at the sparkle eyed Rainbow Dash. "Now if she wants, she just can't fly."
****************************************************************************************************************************************************************
"UUUGGGGHHHHH!!!" Rainbow Dash whined,"I am sooo bored!"

"Eeyup."

"You totally understand, right Big Mac?"

"Eeyup."

Big Mac was in charge of making sure she didn't use her wings, so that meant watching her 24/7. "Big Mac, can you get me my magazine bin over there in the corner?" Rainbow Dash couldn't fly up to her own home so she had to live in Big Macs house. When Big Mac brought over the bin she said,"I never knew you had your own house." Big Mac thought a bit," Well Ai have mah own house 'cause I don't like havin' to clean up mah sisters' messes, I can take care of mah self." Rainbow Dash thought,"Is it nice?" Big Mac looked at her,"I get's kinda lonely, but Ay always end up fine." he smiled. "Ai'm sorry I couldn't get any'r your friends to come. They all said they were busy." Rainbow sighed as she opened up a Wonder Bolts Weekly magazine,"Boorriinngg!" she tossed it aside,"Daily Pony Pop, Blech. Hey, whats this?" She brought out a magazine with Dr.Firecracker on the cover,"Why's the Doc in a magazine?" Big Mac shrugged his shoulders,
"I dun know. Ai guess he might've gotten ayn interview bah some pony."

"But why?

"Ay guess cause hes new. Pinkie Pie probably interviewed him."

"Oh." Rainbow Dash shuffled her hooves. "What time is it?" Big Mac looked at the clock near the kitchen. "Almost eyght. 'Bout time Thunderlane showed up." Rainbow Dash looked around, hungry.
"What's for dinner?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Ai'm gonna make something like... Sandwiches. Then I'll make some apple fritters and salad."

"Really? 'Cause that's a big dinner."

"Ye haven't had anything ta eat all day, so Ai thought you'd want ta eat a good share."

"Thanks Big Mac." Then a blue and black streak flashed into the room. "Hey Rainbow Dash! You really can't fly?" Thunderlane looked at her wing,"Really hurts bad, huh?" Rainbow Dash nodded. She couldn't even bring the wing up from her side. "Dinner's ready!" Big Mac shouted from the kitchen.
************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Rainbow Dash could hear the steady breathing of Thunderlane at the other side of the room. She tiptoed across the room and up the stairs till she reached Big Macs room, it looked like he was asleep. "Watcha doing up late?" Big Mac said as he brought his head up from the pillow. "Uhhhh... Nothing really important, just, uh... getting a look around the house. Yeah! hehe." Big Mac got up,
"Rainbow Dash, go to sleep."

"I... Thank You, Big Mac. For... For everything. For taking me to the hospital, and for letting me stay here."

"Your welcome. Now go back on down stairs and go to sleep."

End of Chapter 1

The Moonlit Evening

Rainbow Dash woke up to find herself in her own house. "How did that..." she looked around. There was no pony in sight. Rainbow Dash opened her door to see the other pegasi ponies flying about. Then she woke up. "My dreams are getting too close to reality." she murmured.

"Hey Rainbow!" Thunderlane said walking in.

"Oh, hey..." Rainbow Dash said groggily. Then she noticed a cloud wall, cloud everything. She opened her mouth but no words came into mind.

"We decided you might want to spend a day a week in your own home." Thunderlane said half laughing at her gaping mouth.

"Th-Thanks!" Rainbow Dash said with real gratitude,"But... How did I get here?"

"Easy, I just bent all my legs inward and up we went!"

Rainbow Dash shifted uncomfortably thinking about how close she would have been to his stallionhood. "Okay, thanks." she said. And Thunderlane walked out of the room. The more she thought about it the more she felt sick,"His..." she couldn't even finish the sentence. Rainbow Dash got up and searched for Thunderlane. "Thunderlane?" She called

"Yeah?"

"Do I have any mail?"

Thunderlane looked at her,"Yeah, an invitation to Party Pops party, why?"

"It's today, right?"

"Yeah..."

"Could you take me?"

"Well..."

"Please?"

"Sure."

Rainbow Dash gave a yip of excitement. Party Pops parties were always crazy. There were so many cool stallions with large Stallionhoods. Thinking about that she took a small peek at Thunderlane's. It was giant, about the size of a tomato in thickness and the length of a hot dog.

"Errr..." Thunderlane said uncomfortably,"Why are you staring..."

Rainbow Dash blushed and apologized, not realizing how much could happen in one night.

The party was over, Rainbow Dash was wasted, and Thunderlane had to bring her home. He looked at the moon, it shone directly on one large cloud. He decided he would land and enjoy , his wings were a bit tired anyway. He put Rainbow Dash down and sat down himself. He took out a small breath tester, she was pretty much completely sober.

"Thunderlane?" Rainbow Dash asked

"Yeah?" Thunderlane replied, wondering what there possibly was to talk about.

"The view is so pretty."

"Oh, yeah, I guess it is." The moon was large and shining directly on the cloud they were sitting on, giving it a peaceful glow. Rainbow Dash looked at him with big eyes.

"Thunderlane." She murmered

"Yeah...?" He looked around, noticing she was leaning towards him.

"Can I tell you something?"

"Sure." She was only an inch away from his nose.

"I like you." And with that she leaned in for a kiss, to be met halfway there by Thunderlane, who after a while ended it. "This isn't right." He said turning his head away.

"What do you mean?" she asked

"I...I like you and all..."

"And?"

"But you're drunk."

"Thunderlane, you can check me, I'm not drunk."

"Yeah, it's either your drunk or..."

"Thunderlane, why would you think I'm drunk?"

"Cause, you're Rainbow Dash and I'm Thunderlane."

"Thunderlane. I might not have known you long, but you helped save my life, and, you're so damn cute." Rainbow Dash trotted over to where him face was and gave him a passionate kiss with so much power she knocked him over. Thunderlane felt like he was in a boiling river, and was swelling in a very peculiar spot.

"Rainbow Dash!" He said pulling away,"Stop. Or I won't be able to stop myself."

"What do you... Oh." She grinned, now instead of a tomato hot dog, it was a potato ruler.

"You know, you don't have to control yourself." She smiled and nuzzled him,"The night is young and so are we."

One more time

Rainbow Dash woke up in the cloud she had fell asleep in, her pillow being Thunderlane's chest. She had fallen asleep after the things had had happened, or so she thought. A part of Thunderlane was still inside her, about 18 inches of it. She tried to get it out. It wouldn't. She had closed up with his stallionhood still inside her. She shook Thunderlane.

"Get up, Thunderlane!"

"Hmmm?"

"Your..." She made some movements,"Is still inside me! I closed up on it!"

"Ummm..." he tried to retract it,"It's really stuck. Maybe this'll work." his hoof touched her cutiemark.

"Uh, Thunderlane? I think from what we did last night, that touching, or rubbing my cutiemark will not get me riled up."

"Well, then we have but one choice..."

"I'm in the mood."

"But...I'm n-" he was cut off as somepony jammed his stallionhood deeper into her own body.

Rainbow Dash knew she had feelings for all three ponies, but she had taken it way beyond what she had imagined last night. Why did I like it? Why did I like it twice? she was getting another pulse for the same kind of action. "No Rainbow Dash..." she said but her voice faded when she saw where she had arrived. Caramel's house. She knocked on the door. Smiling to herself.

"Come in." a voice said from inside.

"Hi Caramel." She said

"Oh, hey Rainbow Dash."

Caramel was feeling odd with the way she was looking at him, big eyes, taking small glances at his unsheathing stallionhood, looking at his bed. He had mounted mares before, but Rainbow Dash...?

"Look Caramel," Rainbow Dash said in a seductive voice.

"Rainbow Dash, it's a bit hot in here, I'm gonna go out side. hehe."

"What's wrong? Am I not pretty?"

"Oh no, no, no! It's just that..." sweat trickled down his face.

"I don't expect you to marry me Caramel, but, I'm- wait, thinking about that, I'm always in the mood."

"Well, um, I, uh..."

"Caramel, I've heard from Flower Bonnet that you do a good job."

Caramel's stallionhood went a full 25 inches. His mind started to turn off. He could only watch as his body worked itself.

A small drum called a heart

Rainbow Dash woke up in a good mood. She stretched her legs and sniffed the air. She smelt chocolate. She walked towards the smell,"Hello, Rainbow Dash!" Thunderlane shouted, making Rainbow Dash jump. "Hey." Caramel said,"Why is everyone here?" Rainbow asked . "Well, Big Mac had to go work at SAA and I decided to make you breakfast; chocolate pancakes. Caramel came because he has your schedule and he's watching you next." Rainbow Dash looked at her schedule. It listed:

9:00: Eat
10:00: Walk around Ponyville
10:30: Free time (No flying)
12:00: Eat
1:00: Spend time with friends
4:00: Visit the Doc
4:30: work at SAA
5:30: Rest/Clean
6:00: Eat
7:00: Free Time (No flying)
10:00: Go to Sleep

Rainbow Dash stomped her feet."This is the worst schedule EVER!!! What am I supposed to do during my free time? And why do I have to work at Sweet Apple Acres?" Caramel shrugged,"I didn't know what to put down! And here's the shift schedule."
It listed:
9:00-4:30: Caramel
4:30-10:00: Big Mac
10:00-9:00: Thunderlane

Rainbow Dash was irritated and wanted to kick something really hard. "You know what? I think I'll go work at SAA the rest of the day."

Rainbow Dash helped Big Mac buck the trees while Applebloom and AJ crated the apples. "Yah know," Big Mac said as he kicked the tree,"Yah don't have tah help, me and mah sisters can mange just fine." Rainbow Dash shook her head as she walked over to the next tree."It's pretty fun, and I need the exercise." Applejack turned suddenly to face the barn,"Aw, will yah look at that! It's 5:30! Yah should be on your way!" Big Mac was about to protest when Applejack herded them to the entrance and whispered something to Big McIntosh. "We'll be fine big brother. Yah need to go now so you'll be able tah get there on time! Now go!" Big Mac started trotting with Rainbow Dash not far behind,
"Well she was in a hurry."

"Eeyup."

"What'd she say to you back there?"

"Nothin important."

"Oh. But what?"

Big Mac looked at Rainbow Dash with a Really? look on his face,"Ehheheh. Sorry." Rainbow Dash tried to give an apologetic smile. As they made there way home Rainbow Dash felt her heart thump. She assumed it was because of the work she had just done, but it didn't feel like a work hard thump, but a nervous thrum. Rainbow Dash started to trot faster until she came to the house and walked through the door." I'm gonna go wash up for dinner."
