As Rainbow dash and her friends sat in the pizza place, she continued to look at the medallion and sighed, wondering what to do. Continue to chase her current dream? Or take the princess's offer and become so much more?

As Rainbow dash thought it over and over again, her friends see her mental struggle with what to do.

Gilda, being the most straight forward of the group, decided to say "Geez Rainbow, you've been like that for the past hour. Just don't go if it's making your brain hurt."

Rainbow dash grunted and said "That's the thing Gilda. I thought being a wonderbolt was the highest honor a Pegasus can get. But then, all of a sudden, the princess herself offers to teach me and says I can go beyond even a wonderbolt?" She then moaned with her face on the table and said "What I'm I gonna do?"

Cloud kicker, seeing her friend drowned with worries then said "Come on Rainbow. We know this isn't you. Since when did YOU sweat the small stuff? Anytime there was a new challenge, you took it head on. I mean, remember when Gilda challenged you to see who could eat the most ice cream the fastest?"

Rainbow and Gilda chuckled as Rainbow said "Yeah, the two of us had headaches AND belly aches for a week, and you and Fluttershy took care of us till we got better."

The group laughed at the memory as Cloud kicker got to her point. "Well, the point is, you didn't think about what would happen then. Why are you over thinking it now?"

Rainbow dash knew that Cloud kicker was right. She NEVER over thing stuff before. Why should she start now? Then again, her decisions back then didn't involve the shaping of her entire future. She then looked at Fluttershy, seeing she hadn't put her input in yet and said, "What do you think Flutters? What should I do?"

Fluttershy squeaked in surprise as Rainbow dash called on her for advice. She gulped, but did say, "W-Well...if you feel strongly about studying abroad with Princess Celestia...then you should go for it. If it'll make you happy to be a wonderbolt instead, then stay...but, I believe you should follow your heart on what to do...like me."

This got their attention as cloud kicker then said, "Wait, what do you mean Flutters? You have something on your mind?"

Fluttershy nodded as she gulped and said "W-Well...I ummm... I want to move towards the ground and learn more about the animals that live there. After getting saved by the butterflies and spending the day with the animals in the forest...I ummm... wanna live with them. And care for them too."

This was a shock to them to say the least. Cloud kicker however, chuckled and said "Well, if that's what you want, then go for it! We've got your back Flutters!" Gilda and Rainbow dash nodded as Fluttershy smiled and said more loudly "OH thank you girls! I'll make you all proud of me."

After hearing her friends resolve, Rainbow dash came to a realization. 'Wow...seeing Fluttershy be bold like this...there's no way I can't do the same after hearing that,right?'

Breathing in and out, Rainbow then said "I've decided..." the others looked at her as she said "I'm gonna go to cantrlot, and be Princess Celestia's personal student!"

Her friends clapped as Cloud kicker and Gilda a high hoof/claw as a blue Pegasus with a black mane in an Apron, Named dough flinger, then said "Did I hear ya right? Little dash and little Fluttershy are leaving Cloudadale?"

Rainbow dash and Fluttershy nodded as Rainbow dash said "Yep, I'm leaving to Cantrlot to Study under Princess Celestia as her personal student."

Fluttershy also then said "And I'm leaving to the forest to learn more about the animals that live there and learn how to care for them."

As they said that, Cloud kicker and Gilda then nodded, with Cloud kicker saying "I'm gonna become a wonderbolt. It was Rainbow's dream after all. So I'm gonna keep your dream alive R.D!"

Gilda then said with the same energy, "I'm gonna try to be a delivery Griffen. After all, Griffens can travel much farther then Pegasus and are perfect for long deliveries. "

Rainbow dash and Fluttershy were surprised by the sudden announcements, but were happy for their friends all the same. Dough flinger then gave them a warning and said "Well, if your gonna leave Cloudsdale, better do it by Tomorrow morning. Tomorrow at noon, Cloudsdale will be moving to the north
And you know it'll be too dangerous to leave once we're moving."

They all nodded as Cloud kicker then said "Let's meet up at the edge of Cloudsdale in the direction of Cantrlot at noon tomorrow so we can say good bye to each other."

Fluttershy and Rainbow dash nodded as they took off to pack and tell their families about all of this. As they were excited for each other's next steps in their life's.

After arriving at her house, Rainbow dash knocked at the door. Her father, Bow Hothoof, Opened the door and said "Welcome home honey. How was training?"

Rainbow walked in and asked "Hi dad. It was good. Ummm...where's Mom and little bro?"

Hothoof replied " Your mom is in the garden, and your big bro should be back from work soon."

As if on cue, Windy Whistles and their son, Prism streak (Who is Rainbow Dash's twin), exited the kitchen as Prism said "Oh. Hey baby Sis. How was training?"

Rainbow dash got a bit annoyed and said "Hmph. Oh please, we both know I'm the older twin. Just because your bigger, doesn't mean your older."

Prism rolled his eyes, smiled, and got his sister in for a noogie and said "You may be older, but I'll still be bigger sis! Noogie,Noggie,Noggie!"

Rainbow dash began to laugh and said, "Hahaha, bro, cut it out! You goober!"

Prism smirked when she called him that and said "A goober am I? Ok sis, you asked for it!"

Rainbow dash realized too late her mistake as she said "No, bro, Don't do it! I warn you, I'll pee on you if you do it!"

Giving off a playfully evil smirk, Prism said "A extra bath will be worth it in my opinion. Now, for my Tickle attack!"

Prism then tickled Rainbow on her belly as Rainbow blushed and laughed like crazy, trying to gasp for air as she said, "Y-You HAHAHAHA! I-I'm gonna- HAHAHAHAHAAA!!!"

Rainbow's warning was lost in her laughter as Prism continued his assault. Rainbow began to regret having that large soda at the pizzeria, as she felt like her bladder was at the brink.

However, despite her best efforts, she failed to get free on time. As a warm liquid was felt on Prisms leg, and Rainbow dash blushed hard as she got up.

Prism then had a guilty look on his face as he said "Sorry about that sis. Guess I when too far."

Rainbow dash rubbed Prism's shoulder and said "It's ok bro. This happens sometimes."

Rainbow dash then remembered what she wanted to say and said "OH right! I forgot to mention, something incredible happened today!"

This got everypony's attention as Rainbow dash told what happened and showed the medallion Celestia gave her, and told them that she wanted to go to cantelot to learn from the princess herself.

Bow Hothoof then began to say "You want...to go to cantrlot...and be Celestia's personal student?"

Rainbow dash nodded nervously. Was her parents mad at her for accepting this without telling them first?

Rainbow's parents then shot out big smiles and said " Our little filly has been taken in by the princess to be best flyer in Equestria!"

Prism also smiled and said "Wow, way to go sis! Your gonna be under The princesses tutelage AND learn flying moves not even the wonderbolts know! Wow! I'm SO jealous now!"

Rainbow smirked and said "Says the future wonderbolt Reserve member. Seriously, once your old enough, you'll be in the wonderbolts reserves. Thanks to wind rider giving you a scholarship to be a wonderbolt after your performance in the young flyers competition as their youngest flyer in the history of the competition."

Prism smiled at the praise her sister gave him as they hugged. But immediately back off each other when the smell reached their muzzles.

Windy then asked Rainbow dash in a concerned tone. "Sweetie, when DO you have to leave for cantrlot?"

Rainbow dash knew that this question had to come sooner or later, gulped and said "Well...I want to go as soon as possible so...I wanna go first thing tomorrow."

Windy and Prism gulped at the opinion as Bow then walked up and said "Well, I think Tomorrow is the only time she has left to go at the moment."

Prism then looked at his dad confused and said "Why dad? Is something happening?"

Bow then explained that Cloudsale was moving north tomorrow and how it would be too dangerous to try and leave while the city was moving.

Windy was a worried about how her daughter was gonna go to cantrlot without anypony guiding her.

But surprisingly, it was Prism who said "You know, maybe Rainbow SHOULD go. I mean, there are clouds she can land on to rest AND where Cloudsdale is now would be the easiest for her to get to cantrlot. I have confidence that big sis can do it."

Rainbow was surprised that for the first time, Prism called her big sis. She smiled and said "Thanks for having confidence in my little bro. But I'm not sure mom and dad will-" "Of course you can go tomorrow."

Rainbow turned as her parents told her she can go on her own. Rainbow was even more surprised that her parents gave the ok as Windy said "Honey, we've always taught you to always reach for the stars, because we've always believed in your potential."

Bow followed up by saying "And we've told you that life has many paths that you can fly in. And now, a new path has opened to you. And we all believe you have what it takes to be Celestia's personal student."

Rainbow smiled as she hugged her parents in excitement. Which was a mistake as they smelled her as Windy said "Well, before you go to Cantrlot, you'll need a bath young filly. Don't need to smell like pee in front of the princess, right?"

Rainbow dash blushed as she went to take a bath and head to bed.

In her bed room, Rainbow dash was packed up and ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow was the start of her brand new life. Of course, the excitement and nerves in her stomach made her unable to sleep as well.

However, she then heard the door open and Prism's head popped out and asked "Hey sis. You awake?"

Rainbow dash turned and saw her brother at the door and said "Yeah bro, I'm awake. I can't sleep. Tomorrow I'm going to cantrlot. And I'm likely gonna have to stay there. I guess you can say that...I'm kinda scared of moving out and leaving you guys."

Prism walked up to her bed with a sympathetic look and said "Yeah, I can imagine. I'll be moving to the wonderbolt academy soon, and I was worried how you feel with me being gone...guess the horseshoes on the other hoof now, huh?"

Rainbow dash then scooded and lifed some of her blankets and said "Wanna sleep with me one last time before I leave tomorrow?"

Prism smiled and crawled into bed with her. He snuggled onto her as he wrapped his forearms on her and said "I'm really gonna miss you Dashie. Both you and Fluttershy."

Rainbow dash then smiled sympathetically and said "Sorry you never confessed your love for her. I was sure you two were gonna hit it off."

Prism smiled back and said "It's ok. I don't see it as I failed completely. Maybe one day me and her will be together. But for now, I'm gonna enjoy this moment with you."

Rainbow smiled and said "That's my little gem." She then leaned up and gave him a kiss on the check. Rainbow dash wouldn't show this level of affection to anypony, except for Fluttershy and Cloud kicker. However, for her little brother, she was willing to lower her guard and show him that affection out of sibling love.

After her kiss, they snuggled each other as they fell asleep. Enjoying one last night together before the big move.

Author's Note

And that was part 4! Also, surprised about Rainbow's Twin? I thought that since Twilight had Shining armor as her older brother, I would gave Rainbow dash a slightly younger twin. To show that their parallel to each other in that sense. Hope you enjoy, leave a comment on what you think of this chapter and see you all in part 5!
