As morning time arrived, Celestia woke up from another torturous night of dreamless sleep. She began to wonder if her sister was ok up there and wanted to check on her. But, she knew that even if she COULD get on to the moon, she would likely not be welcomed there.

However, her train of thought was broken by the sound of a certain baby dragon, jumping in his crib. Celestia giggled as she walked up to the crib, picked him up with her magic, held him in her hoof, and said, "Why, good morning, my little sunshine~".

Spike's laughter was enough to clear any negative feelings away from her. She walked with him in her hoof and looked at the moon. She then began to talk to it, or more accurately, to her sister and said, "Oh Luna, I really wish that you were still here. I'm sorry I haven't talked to you the past couple of days, but..."

She looked down at Spike, who was playing with his mother's mane, and said, "I've recently had a new addiction to my life. I've adopted a son a few days ago. His name is Spike, a baby dragon. Isn't he the cutest?"

Spike began to suck on the tip of his tail as Celestia giggled at him, enjoying her precious bundle of joy. She then continued talking to the moon and said, "And before you ask, no, I didn't marry a dragon... Even when we were drunk on wine after the battle of Dimond mine..."

Celestia then remembered on how she, her sister, and their comrades in arms, had battled to claim the flatlands from the Dimond dogs, who were trying to claim more and more of the land to strip of the gems that equestria needed for supplies.

Thankfully, their friend, Sonic pitch, had developed a technique to fire sonic waves from his wings to target the Dimond dogs hearing and paralyzing them. It is a difficult technique for most Pegasus nowadays. But for him, it was easy for him to learn and master.

Celestia (Having a reputation of getting drunk on wine) had offen wanted to sleep with her friend. However, despite being a princess, he never saw her as a potential mate.

There were a few dragons that offered aid to Celestia and her friends a number of time back then as allies. And while their friends were never into dragons in THAT fashion, Celestia and Luna on the other hand, were more then then willing to spent the night with them on multiple occasions.

She giggled at their fun back then and continued to say "Hehe, I often wondered what became of the Two of them nowadays. Hmmmm, I wonder of my Spikey will find a mare he'll like?"

She then had a somber look and said, "Maybe one day we can have a sister night out and we can fix our boud once more..."

"...Mama?" Celestia looked down and was given a most shocking surprise. Spike spoke. He spoke his first word...and it was mama. Celestia eyes watered as she began to say "Oh my son...you spoke your first word! I-I'm so proud of you!"

Celestia then Squealed in delight as she heard a knocked on the door. "Your highness? It's Raven, can I come in?"

Celestia smiled and said "Come in Raven! Something amazing just happened!" Raven then open the door and said "Is everything ok Tia? I heard a scream and-"

"Spike just said his first word! And it was mama! Ohhhh Raven, I'm SOOO happy right now! I just wanna cuddle him all day long!"

Celestia gushed on and on about how talented Spike was, till Raven cleared her throat and said "Forgive me for interrupting this precious moment of your life Tia, but I must remind you about your mission today?"

Spike then turned to see Raven, laughed and said "Raban!" This got the attention of both mares as Celestia squealed and said "OH my me! Raven, he's trying to say your name! He must love you too!"

Raven began to blush at the idea. She's always wanted to be a mother herself. But with this new job as the assistant to the princess, she never thought of dating was a necessity she needed.

Celestia then passed Spike to her and said "Mind holding Spike for a few minutes while I get the sun up and get ready?"

Raven nodded as she held on to Spike and the princess got ready. As much as Celestia didn't want to leave, she knew that she'll need to leave today at SOME point.

Today, she was off to the cloudsdale on a important investigation. She wanted to find the source of the Sonic Rainboom and meet them face to face.

After washing up, getting her royal attire on, and getting her saddle bag ready, she was off to Cloudsdale to find the source of the Sonic Rainbow...

but not before tickling Spike and saying, "Mommy will be back soon my little sunshine. Raven, can you please cancel the day court for the day? I have a feeling my investigation will take all day and I won't be back in time to hold any meetings today."

Raven nodded and said, "Of couse your highness. And I'll drop off your son with Twilight as soon as she wakes up."

Spike's eyes lid up as he heard the name and said "Teiwight! Teiwight!" Celestia and Raven gasped yet again as Spike spoke Twilight's name. Celestia kissed Spike on his forehead and said "See you tonight, my precious gem." Celestia then walked to her balcony, and flew off to Cloudsdale.

Meanwhile, in Cloudsdale

Cloudsdale, city of the Pegasus and in charge of all the weather based technology the Pegasus use to make the weather for the unicorns and earth ponys on the ground below.

And in the Cloudsdale flight school, a certain Rainbow Pegasus was warming up for her advance classes exam. Her name? Rainbow Janette dash. And she was getting for the said exam. If she passed the exam, then getting into the advanced flight classes would make her one step closer to becoming a wonderbolt! The most elite team of fliers in Equestria.

She was getting some stretching her wings when she heard "Hey look! It's Rainbow crash!"

The colt who said that was Dumbbell, the local heckler. He was also the local bully of flight school. As he said "Getting ready to fail tryouts again? Face it, your too young to even be a advanced flier!"

Dumbbell and his crew laughed, while Rainbow just looked at them in annoyance. Till she saw three shadows coming in close as one of them said "Hey, lay off 'Dumb butt!'"

It was her friend, a purple mare with a blond mane, Cloud kicker, followed by her other friends, Gilda the griffin and Fluttershy breeze.

Dumb bell got annoyed and said "Ugh, Cloud kicker. Why would a cool Pegasus like you hang with these losers and not a macho Pegasus like me?"

Storm kicker then rolled her eyes and said "If macho meant 'Having their heads in their flank' then I'll pass."

Gilda then cracked up and said "Ha! Good one Cloudy!" As she hoofed/ fisted bumped Storm kicker.

Dumb bell then said "Ugh, whatever. We're outta here. Good luck dealing with Rainbow crash!"

Cloud kicker gave a "Hmph." Turned to Rainbow dash and said "Don't listen to those idiots. I'm sure you'll do fine in the advanced flight exam. Sure, it's harder then the normal fight tests in regular fight school, but its nothing for you miss rainboom."

Rainbow dash awkwardly chuckled as Storm kicker mentioned the sonic rainboom. Not sure if she even COULD do another one anytime soon. However, she then thought, 'What am I worried about? I'm Rainbow Jennette Dash! I can do it again with enough practice.'

Cloud kicker then saw Rainbow dash smile and said "There's the smile we wanted to see! Now come on, let's get something to see. Hey flutters, why don't you pick the place?"

Fluttershy then got shy and hide behind her wings and said "Umm...well...umm...dose Pizza sound good?"

Cloud kicker smiled and said "Sounds good to me! Come on, I know of a new place that opened up here."

As the group of friends walked to the pizza place in cloudsdale, enjoying the sunny day they had, when Fluttershy failed to notice a weaker part of the cloud bed, and broke through the cloud floor. "Waaaaaaaah!"

Rainbow dash noticed Fluttershy falling down and said "FLUTTERSHY!!!" Rainbow dash jumped downwards to try and catch her friend.

Gilda and Storm kicker stood there shocked as Gilda said "Why doesn't Flutters flap her wings and slow her descend?!"

Cloud kicker gulped and said "She's too petrified to flap her wings, and even if she was flapping them, she doesn't have the strength of a full grown Pegasus to do it...and either dose R.D."

Gilda gulped as she saw two of her best friends fall to their doom, and helpless to do anything about it. Storm kicker felt the same way, hating herself that she can't do anything to help.

Rainbow dash grabbed Fluttershy as she tried to pull up with all her might. But, no matter how hard she tried, she didn't have the strength to do it. "Fluttershy...I'm sorry. I failed you..."

Fluttershy hugged Rainbow dash tightly and said "At least if I'm gonna hit the ground...I'm glad that at least I have my best friend with me. I'm so sorry Dashie."

The two hugged each other, bracing themselves for their final fall... until...

ZOOM!!!

A white blur then flew through the sky and caught the two falling fillys. Rainbow dash opened her eyes and noticed two things. One, they were flying upwards, meaning somepony saved them. And Two, that the one who saved them had a flowing mane.

The said mare, gently landed on a near by cloud and her small passenger were somehow levitated off of her and placed both fillys on the cloud she was on. "Are you alright my little fillys?"

Rainbow dash then looked up to the mare who saved them, and was surprised who it was. It was the princess of equestria, princess Celestia. Who was looking at them with a warm smile as Rainbow dash nervously said "Y-Yes your highness. S-sorry we landed on you while you were flying."

Celestia giggled at the rainbow mane filly and stroked her head as she said "It was no accident or coincidence that I headed towards you. I saw you trying to save your friend, but lacked the strength to pull up. You were very brave, if not a bit reckless in your attempt."

As Rainbow dash blushed apon hearing the praise, she then heard her other friends fly in, saying, "RAINBOW DASH!"

They flew in, making sure that their friends were ok as Cloud kicker and Gilda showed up and checked up on their friends as Gilda asked Fluttershy, "You feeling ok? Umm...anything broken?"

While Gilda wasn't the best at being emphatic, she dose care for her friends, even if she has a hard time showing it.

Fluttershy nodded slowly, still shook up from sudden fall as she said "Y-yes. J-just a bit startled. Thanks for asking Gilda." Gilda smiled as she saw Fluttershy return smile as well.

Cloud kicker helped Rainbow dash up as she said "Geez, you had us so worried Ms 'Rainboom'! But seriously, Don't scare us like that again you two."

Rainbow dash and Fluttershy nodded sheepishly as the four of them got into a group hug.

Celestia overheard the nickname and began to think, 'Ms.Rainboom...No. It's not possible that this little filly was the one...'

Celestia then then cleared her throat and said "Parton me, But I couldn't help but overhear the nickname. Is there a special meaning on the name 'Ms,Rainboom?'"

Cloud kicker smiled and placed her hoof on Rainbow's back and proudly said "Well your majesty, I'll be glad to explain. See, my pal Rainbow dash here, was racing at airway corner. And when she was about to lose, she poured all her speed into the dive, and a Rainbow explosion came from beside her! She also got her cutie mark right after she did it too."

Celestia looked at Rainbow's cutie mark and saw that it was a cloud with a rainbow thunder bolt coming out of it. 'Unbelievable...it almost identical to Aurora bolt's cutie mark... is it possible?'

She then used a spell to see if there is any magical residue of a sonic rainboom left of the filly. As it turned out, she was correct. Rainbow magic residue was around her and recently been activated from how active it was.

'There can be no denying it. This MUST be Aurora's descendent. And from I heard and saw from her courage, she has so much potential to be a incredible warrior...or maybe even be a princess warrior like how I was. I would do Aurora a disservice by not helping her reach or surpass her potential.'

Celestia gave a soft smile and said "Rainbow dash." Rainbow looked up to the Solar Monarch and gulped. Wondering what she had in mind. "How would you like to study under me, and I can help you improve your flying far beyond you can imagine."

Rainbow dash's mouth dropped and was left hanging as she heard the news and said "W-What? M-Me? B-Be your personal student?"

Cloud kicker, Gilda, and Fluttershy were shocked to say the least. Their rainbow mane friend, who pulled off a sonic rainboom, was getting personally invited by the princess herself to be a personal student of hers? They were excited to say the least for her.

Rainbow dash was surprised, but also wondering something as she asked "Princess Celestia? If I do become your student, will I become a wonderbolt? It's my dream to become one."

Celestia looked at her with a synthetic look and thought, 'Oh my little filly. As wonderful as it would be to have you in the wonderbolts, I have much better plans for you.' "I'm afraid not my little pony. I see you have much more potential then you realize. You can become so much more then a regular cloud factory worker. Or even a wonderbolt."

Rainbow dash was shocked as she thought, 'I can be much more then a wonderbolt? I've always wanted to join the wonderbolts...but the princess is wanting to teach me personally. Imagine all the legendary aerial moves she knows, all the tricks she can teach me...ugh, what do I do?!'

Rainbow dash then felt a large, yet soft wing on her back as she heard the princess said, "You don't have to make a decision now my little filly. This IS A difficult decision to make and requires time to decide."

Celestia then made a medal appear with her cuite mark on it and said "When you made your decision, head to cantrlot castle and show the guards this medallion. They'll know that your there to see me."

Rainbow dash then took the medallion as the princess turned to the edge and was about to leave. Rainbow dash then took a moment to make a thought and said in her mind, 'Wow...the princess has a nice flank.'

Celestia made a small blush, almost as if she knew what the filly was thinking and said "I'll wait for you at Cantrlot castle when you make your decision. Until then." She then flew from the cloud and made her way back to cantrlot before it was time for her to lower the sun. While Rainbow dash, looked at the medallion and to her friends. She was gonna have alot to think about.

Author's Note

Part 3 is Finally out! I wanted to link Celestia's and Rainbow's meeting with Celestia's past so it would make her decision of taking Rainbow in as her student more meaningful. Next part will be Rainbow weighting her choices. What will she choose? Stay tune and and have a great day.
