On the day he was forced to move far away from her a young colt named Sonic was gifted a single feather from the wing of his best friend and personal hero, a flying prodigy named Rainbow Dash. But when tragedy struck Sonic's life shortly thereafter, that gift became so much more than just a feather... Now as a young stallion he may have the opportunity of his dreams; a chance to finally reconnect with the pony that he thought about every single day since their separation. What he never could've dreamed however was just how large the implications of Rainbow's small and simple act of kindness would be for not just him, but all of Equestria.
