The trio talked over some dinner that Twilight prepared.

“So Fluttershy, you dodged my question the last time, but since your pasta’s still not finished, so I ask you, what ARE you doing here?” Rainbow Dash asked, knowing that Fluttershy would never leave without finishing her food.

“Fine… I’ll tell you,” she said, taking a sigh. “My parents… are divorced.”

A state of shock erupted Rainbow Dash, especially since the last time she saw Fluttershy’s family, her mom and dad were doing fine.

“They told me it was nothing unreasonable, and if I wanted, I could see you again. I found that Twilight lived with you, and looked for your address. Then I found myself here,” Fluttershy said.

“I am so sorry Fluttershy, I never should’ve asked in the first place,” Rainbow Dash said. Rainbow later became unresponsive.

“Rainbow? Rainbow Dash? Hello?”, a concerned Twilight said.

”Now, what have we learned?” an adult Rainbow Dash said.

“Is that… me? I look… awesome!” filly Rainbow said.

“Screaming and hollering,” an adult Fluttershy said.

“Loss of control,” she continued

“And most importantly?"

“Passion!” adult Fluttershy said, mustering up all her courage to say it.

“Right! So now that you know the elements of a good cheer, let's hear one,” adult Rainbow said.

Fluttershy inhaled, and then she made the loudest cheer she ever made.

“Yay!” Fluttershy said softly.

“Same old Fluttershy, even years apart!” filly Rainbow said.

And then, the vision shattered.

Okay, I don’t know why I decided to put that scene for the flash, but, I needed to find a way to make Rainbow Dash have a flash. Wait… that rhymes!
