CHAPTER TWO: WHO WAS THAT MYSTERIOUS MARE?
A few days later, Rainbow Dash was signing autographs for the fan club and Spike was taking notes as usual.
"There you go," said the blue pegasus, signing her name on a photo of her for a filly wearing a Rainbow Dash-themed hat.
Beaming, Lemon Daze rolled up the photo and put it in her saddlebag. "Someday, I wanna be just like you!" she declared.
"Aim high, kid, but don't aim for the impossible," Rainbow Dash advised when there was a scream. She and the gathered ponies looked up to see that the hot air balloon that belonged to Cherry Berry had popped and she was falling toward the ground, screaming.
"Help! Help!" Cherry Berry screamed.
Snips glanced at the blue pegasus, who was autographing another photograph. "Uh, don't you think you should go and help?" he suggested.
"Yeah, yeah," said Rainbow Dash, her voice slightly muffled by the pencil she was using. "I've got a good ten seconds to spare. Just a couple more." She signed a few more photos and then she shot into the air toward the falling basket and screaming pony.
Spike was watching with rapid attention while writing everything down. "The tension is unbearable," he whispered. "Will Rainbow Dash make it on time?" He then blinked when a shadow passed overhead. "Huh?"
The ponies stared up at a figure standing on the roof of a nearby building: the figure was a pony wearing a purple/black costume with a wide hat, a cape, and a mask so that they could only see light blue eyes. They watched as the mysterious pony leapt from rooftop to rooftop, and right before the blue pegasus could reach the falling hot air balloon, the mysterious pony rescued Cherry Berry from the basket.
Distracted by this, Rainbow Dash ended up colliding with the balloon and crashed to the ground in a tangled mess. She managed to untangle herself from the worst of the fabric and the ropes, and she stared at the mysterious pony.
The ponies were cheering and exclaiming over the new hero as the mysterious pony shook hooves with Cherry Berry before running off into the distance.
"Holy turnips, that pony came outta nowhere!"
"I've never seen such bravery in all my life!"
"That's right!" Mayor Mare announced happily. "Ponyville has a new hero. A mysterious mare that has done well by our fair city today. I dub this new masked hero 'The Mysterious Mare Do Well'!" And the ponies were cheering once again.
Rainbow Dash scowled. "Mare Do Well, huh?" she grumbled, getting up. "Well that mare would do well to stay outta my way! Ponyville's only got room for one hero, and that hero is me!" She took a step, only to end up tripping on a rope that was still looped around her leg, and fell down. "Ow."
The next day, a bus full of ponies was flying down the road, out of control, and the ponies onboard was screaming in terror. Hearing the screams, Rainbow Dash flew after the bus, and cleared her throat to get the attention of one of the ponies.
"Never fear, your friendly neighborhood Rainbow-" she began.
"Excuse me," Globe Trotter interrupted her, "uh, do you think you could skip your catchphrase and just hurry up and save us?!"
"Ugh, fine!" the blue pegasus grumbled, flying to the front of the bus. "Picky, picky." Bracing herself against the front, she tried to slow the vehicle down by digging her hooves into the ground. However, she didn't get enough traction and ended up being run over by the bus. "Whoaaaa! Aah!" She sat up, just as Mare Do Well suddenly arrived and slammed her back hooves into the bus.
It took some effort on the mysterious pony's part, but she managed to slow down and stopped the bus short of the cliff edge and the ponies onboard were cheering.
Wisp hopped out of the bus and kissed the ground a few times. "Oh, thank you, Mare Do We– e…" he trailed off when the mysterious pony ran off.
"I can't believe it," Rainbow Dash complained, getting up and glaring after the disappearing pony. "Mare Do Well is stronger than me? Well, a hero is more than just muscle, and she's gonna learn that the hard way," she vowed.
Later that same day, jackhammer and drills were in use at a construction site that was being worked on by construction ponies. Crafty Crate was manning the crane and he frowned when one of the levers got stuck.
"Huh?" he muttered, trying to get it to work, but then the whole system got fried and the crane went crazy, sending the steel beam flying into the air.
Rainbow Dash was flying nearby when she saw what was happening. "Huh? Never fear, your friendly neighbor-" she began and duck when the steel beam almost hit her. "Whoa!"
The crane then collided with the building, which began creaking, and soon it began falling apart. The blue pegasus flew after the fleeing construction ponies, trying to get out her catchphrase, but the falling debris was keeping her from saying it. "Never fear– Uh! I'm coming! Hold on! Whoa!" Giving up on her catchphrase, she tried to save the construction ponies instead.
Jack Hammer was already out of the danger zone when he saw Mare Do Well arrive and saved the other ponies. "Look!" And Crafty Crate cheered.
Determined not to be outdone, Rainbow Dash scooped Jim Beam onto her back and headed for the edge of the danger zone while he yelped every time that they almost got hit.
"Look out for the– Watch out for falling– On your left! Agh! Your other left!"
Soon the blue pegasus got him to safety. "Here ya go, safe and sound," she declared when the building crashed to the ground in a mangled heap and Jim Beam fainted. Feeling smug, she went over to the mysterious pony. "Well, Mare Do Well, or should I call you Mare Do Slow?" she sneered. "You're gonna have to pick up the pace if you wanna compete with me, 'cause I move like lightning."
"Actually, she saved all of us!" Rivet exclaimed. "We owe her our lives!" And he and the other construction ponies cheered as they followed after Mare Do Well, even Jim Beam when he regain consciousness.
Rainbow Dash stared after them and she growled. "Okay. She's strong, fast, and somehow knows what's gonna happen ahead of time," she grumbled. "I've gotta step up my game."
The next day, Rainbow Dash was flying past the dam when she heard a cracking sound, and she saw that a crack was forming in the middle of the dam. "If the dam breaks, the whole town will be flooded!" she yelped and then grinned. "Looks like Ponyville needs a hero!" She flew down and stuck her hoof in the crack. "Easy peasy."
The blue pegasus was so pleased with herself that she wasn't aware that the stone was cracking. "My game is officially back on," she declared proudly and then looked around. "If only somepony were here to pat me on the back. Eh, guess I'll have do it myself-" She removed her hoof to to so, when the dam exploded, catching her in a flood of water heading for Ponyville. She yelped and screamed. "Help!"
Rainbow Dash went under the water and then popped back out with a fish in her mouth. She spit it out and resumed screaming for help. "Help!" she screamed and collided with a log. Blinking she saw who had used the log to save her, and it was Mare Do Well. "You?!" she shrieked. "I suppose you want me to thank-" Her jaw dropped when the mysterious pony removed her hat to reveal a horn, which glowed pink as she magically repaired the damage to the dam. "You gotta be kidding me…" she moaned while the ponies were cheering as Mare Do Well ran off.
The blue pegasus couldn't believe that this mysterious pony was stealing her thunder and she fell backward on the ground, frustrated. "Lemme get this straight," she grumbled. "She's strong, she's agile, and she's magic? Ughhh! How do I compete with that?" She then sat up, realizing something. "Wait a minute. I do have a leg up on her. And that leg is…" She shot into the air, flying around fast. "wings! Hah! Take that, Mare Do Well!"
Rainbow Dash was nearly knocked out of the sky by a black/purple blur that turned out to be Mare Do Well, who did have wings, and her jaw dropped in shock while the ponies far below were cheering. She then folded her forelegs and pouted. "Oh, for the love of Pete."
