A/N DISCLAAIMER MLP belongs to Lauren Faust. ON WITH THE STORY

It was a cloudy day with a bit of sun shining through the clouds...when suddenly... A blur of blue with rainbow trailing behind it flew past clearing all the clouds.

"WOOO HOOO" Said a female voice while doing lops and spins in the air clearing more clouds. It was none other that Rainbow Dash, The element of Loyalty and the manager of the weather team.

"whew, done" Rainbow said wiping sweat from her forehead.

"I'm going to go take a nap" She told her self as she flew to her favourite tree.

Suddenly Twilight and the 4 ponies ran up to Rainbow Dash.

"Rainbow Dash!" Twilight yelled as she and the others came closer

"huh? oh hi Twilight" Rainbow said

"There is a new pony in town" Twilight said happily

"Yes, and I heard that she is the most dazzling flyer in all of Equestria" Rarity said with a smile on her face

That cought Rainbow Dash's attention

"A'h bet that she's real nice" AppleJack said

"and she's a pegasus" Fluttershy said softly

"WE ARE GOING TO BE BEST FRIENDS, I WILL THROW HER A WELCOME PARTY" Pinkie Pie said happily

"Where is she now?" Rainbow asked

"she is supposed to be at town hall now" Twilight answered

"come on!" She said

AT TOWN HALL

All the ponies were gathered at town hall looking up at the sky as a blur of light green blue and pink zoomed by. As all the ponies "Ooh'd" and "Aaa'd", Rainbow Dash frowned

'so they think they can be a better flyer than I am, we'll have to see about THAT' Rainbow thought to herself.

The pony finally landed as the ponies circled around her. She was a light blue pegasus with a flowing light pink and green mane, her cutie mark was a pair of white wings.

"Thank you everypony" The pony said bowing to the crowd

Twilight and the 5 ponies walk through to the new mare

"Hello, My name is Twilight Sparkle and this is Applejack..." Twilight introduced

"Howdy" Applejack said lifting her hat

"Rarity" "Pleased to meet you" Rarity said fluttering her eyes

"Fluttershy" "H-Hello" FLuttershy said hiding behind her mane

"Pinkie Pie"

"HI, MY NAME IS PINKIE PIE WHATS YOUR NAME, OH MY CELESTIA WE ARE GOING TO BE THE BEST OF FRIENDS!" Pinkie said jumping up and down

"and Rainbow Dash"

"hmph" Rainbow said turning away

"oh, well nice to meet you all" The new mare said

"my name is Lightning Chaser" She said

"but you can call me Li (pronounced Lee)" Li said

"well nice to meet you Li, we hope you enjoy your stay in Ponyville" Twilight said

"thank you, I'll see you around everypony" She said as she flew off

AT TWILGHT'S LIBRARY

"DID YOU SEE HER, SHE WAS THE MOST AMAZING FLIER EVER!" yelled Pinkie

"Thank you, but I don't like to brag" a voice said as they came in

It was Lightning chaser

"I KNOW BUT YOU WERE JUST SO AMAZING" Pinkie said

"thats what everypony says" Li replied

"so what can I do for you" Twilight said

"oh, well I was looking for a book" Li said

"you like to read?" Twilight asked hopefully

"yeah, I like to read in my spare time" Li replied

"Really? thats great" Twilight said

" I really like reading the Daring Do novels" Li replied

"Really? SO do I!" Twilight said happily clapping her hooves together

"cool" Li said

"I have all of the Daring Do books" Twilight said

"I only have three of them" Li said

"pfft reading is for eggheads" Rainbow Dash said

Everypony turned their heads her way

"well reading isn't that bad" Li said

"yeah, remember when you read that book I gave you when you were in hospital" Twilight said

Rainbow Dash just turned away and walked out of the room

"whats? her problem?" Li asked a bit worried

"don't worry, she's always like that" Twilight replied

Rainbow Dash's POV

"so she thinks she can be a better flier than me" I said to myself while flying in the air

"I don't think I am a better flier than you" A voice said behind me

"AhHH" I screamed stopping in mid flight

"sorry" Li said "how'd you keep doing that?" I asked

"do what?" Li asked

"Nevermind" I just said flying off

Lightning Chasers POV

'sigh doesn't Rainbow Dash like me?' I thought to myself sighing

I landed on my cloud home that I am staying in. Then Twilight ran up to my cloud home

"Hey, Li" She yelled up to me

"yes?" I called out

"Come to Sugarcube Corner, I need you to see something" She said

"oh,ok I'll be there in a minute" I said flying down

"ok lets go" Twilight said as I followed her

AT SUGARCUBE CORNER

Twilight and I walked in

"SURPRISE!"

I yelped in surprise. I looked around, there were many party decorations, There was a table in the corner with food, another corner with party games and a banner with 'WELCOME TO PONYVILLE' was at the front

"Wha?" I asked stunned

"ARE YOU HAPPY, I THREW THIS WELCOME PARTY JUST FOR YOU, ALL THE PONIES IN PONYVILLE ARE HERE, SO YOU CAN MAKE LOTS OF FRIENDS!" Pinkie exclaimed

"oh, Thank you, but you didn't have to go into all this trouble to throw me a party" I said smilling

"are you kidding? I throw everypony parties when they are new in town" Pinkie said happily bouncing up and down

"thank you, I appreaciate the thought" I said

" COME ON EVERYPONY LETS PAAAARRRTTAAAAYYY!" Pinkie yelled while dancing to the music

I soon joined in the fun

AFTER THE PARTY

Most of the ponies had left, I stayed behind and offered to clean up.

"Thank you so much for the party Pinkie" I said

"aww, don't mention it" she replied smiling

"well;, I gotta go, it's getting late"

"oh, ok see ya tomorrow" She replied waving happily

THE NEXT DAY

I awoke to a sound of knocking on my front door. i opened it, it was Rainbow Dash

"oh, good morning Rainbow Dash" I said

"I challenge YOU to a race" Rainbow said smirking

"a race?" I asked

"yes, unless your too afraid to go up against Equestria's fastest flier" Rainbow said proudly

"ok, then, it is on" I said shaking hooves with Rainbow Dash
