The Plague

"How could this have happened?!" Applejack asked. Rainbow Dash shook her head and put her hoof over AJ's shoulder.

Twilight put her wings on her eyes in disgrace. Fluttershy had to have buckets near her so all her tears wouldn't flood the town.

Rainbow Dash sat there and prayed to Celestia. Rarity's mom was crying and her dad was covering Sweetie Belle's eyes. Everypony was crowed around the body covered in a blanket and was either crying, whimpering, praying, or were too chicken to show up.

"This was my fault..." Rainbow Dash sighed. Everypony turned and looked at Rainbow, all listening for a reason.

"I should have watched her better so she wouldn't have ran into the Everfree..." Rainbow Dash cried.

"It wasn't yar fault, Rainbow. It wasn't anypony's. We had no supervision over her. She went in herself, and we can't blame her for that - she was infected unexpectedly." AppleJack explained, wiping the tears from her eyes.

A month after Rarity's passing, Rainbow Dash woke up from a thunder. She woke up and flew out of her Room and stood straight tall for her Wonderbolts Captain: Spitfire.

"Alright, you sissies, we're gonna practice for the big day tomorrow. We're gonna perform at the Summer Sun Celebration, so we gotta be absolutely perfect. If we mess up on this, we'll be embarrassed in sight of the one and only Princess Celestia." Spitfire ordered.

Rainbow Dash opened her wings and flew straight up, high in the air, then she instantly flew straight down and turning over to land on her hooves - and accomplished it. Spitfire looked at Rainbow Dash with a little bit of impressionism, but then she turned away like it was a normal everyday thing.

"Now, everypony, give me 150 laps around the big bang! Whoever finishes first doesn't have to clean the restrooms for 8 hours!" Spitfire ordered. The Big Bang was a 105 mile long, thunder cloud with a width of 60 miles. It was Cloudsdale's monument, and it is illegal to sleep or prance on it for it is known for it's size and it was also the first cloud who rained upon Equestria.

Rainbow Dash was the first to finish, then Lightning Strike, then Thunderlane, and when everypony else finished, Spitfire threw a mop, bucket of water, and a sponge at them, indicating that they had to clean. Rainbow Dash snickered at them while she did wing-ups.
