Up in Flames

Golden Flames POV

After I shouted at everyone we all retreated back to Twilight’s library. As we were walking we met up with Rarity and a few others who I didn’t know. There was a tan mare who had a cowpony hat on, a cyan mare who had a rainbow mane and a yellow mare who had a pink mane.

“Uh, who are they?” I ask Twilight quietly.

“The one with the rainbow mane is Rainbow Dash, the one with the pink mane is Fluttershy and the one with the cowpony hat is Applejack.”

“Oh. Okay.” We all headed to the library so that I can find out how my talent is so interesting. We walked in and I saw another pony there. This pony is a white unicorn stallion, he has a black/blue mane with a white stripe in it and he has a black moon cutie mark.

“Who is this?” I ask Twilight.

“His name is Flutter Night.”

“Hmm.”

“Why are you here? Twilight asks Flutter Night.

“I’m here because I wanted to meet your cousin and I also heard her shout throughout the town.”

“Wow.” Twilight said. “That must have been some shout.”

I shyly looked away.

Twilight’s POV

“Okay. Now that everypony is here with an exception.” She looks at Flutter Night when she said that.

“Golden Flames wanted to know why her cutie mark is so interesting. I looked up on it and it turns out that there hasn’t been any unicorn in all of Equestria’s history to have her kind of power. Can you tell us when you were born? I think it may have something to do with that.” I ask Golden.

“Sure. I was born during a double sunset.”

“The double sunset occurs once every thousand or so years. Hmph. No wonder. I’m officially stumped as to how her powers are like that.” This remark received a gasp from the other ponies in the room, except for Golden Flames, as they haven’t known me to be stumped ever. Rarity just faints on her materialised couch.

“What are you saying that you’re officially stumped? Huh Twi? How can you even say that?” To my surprise it was Rainbow Dash who asked that.

“I am officially stumped. I can’t make heads or tails of it.” I said exasperatedly. “It’s sort of like how Rainbow Dash is the fastest pegasus in Equestria and she is the only one to perform a sonic rainboom.”

“You can perform a sonic rainboom?” Golden asked Rainbow Dash.

“Eh, it’s nothing really.” Rainbow replied.

“Show me, show me, show me, show me!”

Okay, fine, I’ll show you.”

We all walked outside to watch Rainbow Dash perform a sonic rainboom. With the exception of Rarity

Rainbow Dash’s POV

I saw everypony who had been in Twilight’s library and I thought ‘Let’s hope I can do this’. I flew up as high as I can into the wide, blue sky. I then started to go down. I went so fast that a huge ‘boom’ could be heard. A cone of light started to form around me. ‘Come on. Come on.’ I then started to get faster and faster. Just before I hit the ground an extremely massive ‘boom’ could be heard as I broke the light spectrum. I then zoomed even faster than I did before, leaving a rainbow trail in my wake.

“That was so AWESOME!” My shout echoed around Ponyville.

“Let’s just go back inside.” We all went back inside the library and after a little while Rainbow Dash came back in. She looked exhausted as the sonic rainboom took a lot out of her. I noticed that every time Flutter Night looked at Twilight and Twilight looked at him, he would look at him. ‘I’ll have to figure that out later.’

“This will be the last time that I demonstrate my talent. Got that?” Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Fluttershy nodded. Just then a Royal Guard pony burst in.

“Twilight, Elements of Harmony, you’re needed at the palace.” He looks me over. “You may as well come too.”
