Load Full StoryNext ChapterRainbow Dash awoke from her night sleep, realizing that today would be just amazing. She never felt so excited in her life, the Wonderbolts had invited her to a ceremony. The Wonderbolts were going to perform extreme tricks that nopony else could ever dare to do. A few minutes later she checked the clock. Ten minutes after nine.
"Pony feathers, I'm going to miss it if I don't hurry!" Rainbow Dash complained while scrambling around. She finally finished, then swooped out the door to her house. She flew as fast as she could to the ceremony. Suddenly she bumped into a grey mare. She turned around curiously, crossed yellow eyes facing Rainbow Dash's magenta eyes.
"Rainbow! Guess what? I got this muffin this morning, and then I ate it, but then it was all spicy and stuff, so I was screaming then..." Derpy told Rainbow Dash her long story of her morning.
"And then I was all like who made this muffin?! You poisoned it! So then a pony came-" Rainbow Dash stopped her and explained where she had to be. She shoved Derpy out of her way before Derpy could even get a chance to say anything. Rainbow Dash flew faster than ever before, and luckily she made it to the ceremony on time. The ceremony was taking place in Cloudsdale's Cloud Square. Pegasi swarmed everywhere, making it impossible to find the Wonderbolts. Looking left and right to find them, all she saw were a mix of different colored winged ponies. Rainbow Dash groaned while searching, when suddenly a voice was overheard from all the crowds.
"Fillies and Gentlecolts, I welcome you all to the Wonderbolts ceremony! I am pround to welcome you, the Wonderbolts!" A blue pegasus announced. Everypony cheered and hollered all around, except Rainbow Dash, who was in the very back of all the crowds. She decided to fly above all the crowds and hopefully find a spot near the front.
"Hello everypony! The Wonderbolts welcome you all very much!" A yellow pegasus in her Wonderbolts uniform announced. Rainbow Dash was luckily able to find an empty space near the front of the crowds. She landed to her space, while a few ponies kindly moved a little to give her room to stay there.
Spitfire passed the microphone to a light blue colt next to her. "We are very glad you all came to this special ceremony, and since we got enough of an audience, we will be performing the world's most impossible tricks for all of you!" Soarin called to all the crowds. Rainbow Dash looked up, then just stood there, eyes just glowing with excitement. Maybe if they get a chance after the show, she could finally get a chance to talk with them. Her chance at the Gala failed, and she barley got any time to talk to them at the royal wedding. But even if she doesn't get to, she will still be able to see the most impossible tricks, performed by them.
All six of the Wonderbolts talked about what tricks they were doing, then they finally told everypony to wait five minutes for them to get all set and ready. Rainbow Dash could just stand there smiling all day. All the pegasi were moved to another area to watch the Wonderbolts perform. It was a long mountain side, just enough for everypony to watch them. The view was clear enough and wide enough for the ponies to look left, right, up and down.
The announcer colt came out again on a cloud and called,"Fillies and Gentlecolts, the Wonderbolts!!!" Everypony cheered, including Rainbow Dash as she cheered along with the crowds. The Wonderbolts flew out from a cloud, swooping past the crowds. They did their usual tricks as they do every beginning of a show. The ponies cheered for each trick.
Then, the time had finally came for the Wonderbolts to finally perform the most challenging and impossible tricks of all time. It was going for a record to send out to all of Equestria. Ponies would be talking all about it, and how vivid it was. The Wonderbolts flew straight up into the sky, higher than anypony could see. Then, they all came down, while doing flips and turns. Half went right, and the other half went left, all of them flying straight up. The Wonderbolts flew even faster than when Rainbow Dash did her Sonic Rainboom, even faster than when all the pegasi used their wingpower to collect water up to Cloudsdale, even faster than anypony could imagine. Then, the Wonderbolts had came miles into the sky once more, spaced out 40 miles from each other in a straight line, then flew down one by one to perform a sonic rainboom.
But that wasn't the impossible. It was the turbo speed flip and fly trick. All the Wonderbolts flew at a high speed into the air. Some turned right, some left. While flying their direction, they flipped faster than anyone could count. Suddenly, all the wonderbolts circled, faster and faster and faster, creating a tornado. The tornado turned into millions of clouds, flying all over the sky. From that, the Wonderbolts flew horizontally, turned around and flew fast, their lightning-smoke trail following behind them. They did the most impossible trick ever, one Wonderbolt flipped, while the other Wonderbolts linked each other's flips. The crowds could not believe their eyes, the Wonderbolts liked each other's flips, making it a hoop of them flipping in mid-air.
Rainbow Dash was amazed, an impossible trick that had never happened successfully was being performed by her favorite team. She bet all the other ponies were thinking the exact same thing as her, all the cheers and amazement.
The Wonderbolts landed successfully on a cloud in front of the crowds. Applause was all Rainbow Dash heard, screams of delight from all the fans. She couldn't help but smile at the Wonderbolts. A fan called out from all the crowds at her loudest voice,"WE LOVE YOU WONDERBOLTS!" Some ponies next to her told her to not yell out at them, and others by her just nodded and agreed. Rainbow Dash wished she could be like one of them one day. "One day Rainbow Dash... One day..." Rainbow Dash told herself.
"Thank you all very much! We are very glad you loved the show! And not only that, but we made the record too!" Spitfire announced. This made the audience scream with joy. Rainbow Dash squealed, she just was so happy that her favorite team had gotten a record. "And it looks like since we got a world record, we are able to have a ceremony and a party!" Spitfire added.
Later, the ponies were lead to a building all decorated for the party. Rainbow Dash was especially happy, she would probably have the chance to talk to the Wonderbolts. But there was one problem, which was all the ponies. She may not have a chance at all, there were so many ponies that would defiantly talk to them. She sighed, wondering what to do. Then, she spotted snacks on a table. Maybe food might help her to think better. She was hungry anyways. She trotted over to the snack table, and ate a few snacks.
Rainbow Dash wondered if anypony else had any advice for her. She walked over to a light blue mare wearing a white bow in her dark blue mane. "Um, hey, can I ask you something?" Rainbow Dash asked her. "Sure what is it?" She responded."Uh, do you have any advice on talking to the Wonderbolts?" she questioned.
"Well, you can try to stay nearby them, and wait for a pony to finish talking to them. Then you go over to them quickly before anypony else does." the pony recommended."Okay, thank you!" Rainbow Dash thanked and flew off.
She still had a problem. Where are the Wonderbolts? They were no where in sight. Did they leave? Were they going to get ready for another show? She asked a few ponies if they had seen the Wonderbolts. None didn't even know. Worries and questions filled Rainbow Dash's mind. She began to loose hope, and maybe they weren't here.
But it was just before she had given up, she saw a Wonderbolt to her far left. Rainbow Dash ran over to him, excited that she could finally get her chance. She walked up to him, and he looked right next to him surprised to see the rainbow maned pony walking next to him.
"Hey, I'm sooo glad I can finally I can talk to you!" Rainbow Dash joyfully said, almost wanting to hug him.
"Oh, you're Rainbow Dash if I'm correct?" he said.
"Yea, the Rainbow Dash!"
"The one who saved my pie at the Gala, the one who I danced with at the Royal Wedding!"
"Yep, it's all true!"
"We hardly ever got to talk to each other!"
"Why don't we start?"
"Of course!"
They chatted for a long time, almost seemed like forever to Rainbow Dash. She complimented him on his tricks, and all his amazing shows. The colt, he had his goggles off, and his light green eyes shone from the lights reflecting everywhere. She supposed it was Soarin, according to Spitfire during the Gala. She was in super happy shape, and was very pleased she was finally talking to a Wonderbolt. A Wonderbolt that she knew. Soarin. The one that she saw at the Gala and the Wedding. She couldn't be more pleased than she already was. What more could she ever want? Rainbow Dash was already thankful for what she had.
There was nothing else that would happen.
Nothing.
