"Jackie! Jackie, it came!" Rayne said excitedly as she burst through into the Apples' house. "How ya doing Granny Smith?"

"Just fine, dear. Just fine." Granny Smith chuckled as she rocked herself in her chair. "What can ah do ya for?"

"Where's Jackie? I got my letter from the Wonderbolts back!"

"Good for y'all, dear! Jackie and Big Mac are workin' in the barn."

"Thanks, Granny!" Rayne said as she went out the back door.

Granny just chuckled as she watched the 18 year old bolt from the house and make a beeline for the barn.

As she was running, Rayne decided to make a detour to check on the Crusaders in their clubhouse. She chuckled as she imagined the look on Scoots face. She started to climb the ladder when she caught whiff of the conversation that was going on.

"C'mon, you two," Belle's unmistakable voice declared. "It's part of the game. I dared you two to kiss, so get on with it."

"But Granny Smith says only boys can kiss girls!" Bloom's voice complained.

Rayne's eyes widened slightly at that. Her brows furrowed a little, but she supposed that's just how some people are.

"Now, hold on." Rayne came up and made her presence known. "Girls can kiss girls, and boys can kiss boys. That's how some people live now a days. There's nothing wrong with it, and the only reason Granny Smith thinks that is because she was raised in a time when people didn't really do that."

"R-Rayne!" Scooter exclaimed happily. "Is that really true? Is it?!"

"You betcha, squirt." Rayne winked.

"You heard her." Scooter said with finality. "Come here, Bloom. I'm no chicken, and Rayne said it was okay. So, let's go!"

"bu-mph!" Bloom blushed as lip-on-lip contact was made.

"There! Done! Next challenge!" Scooter said as she pulled away.

Bloom sat there with a blush on her face. Her eye twitching occasionally.

Rayne high fived Scooter before climbing down and making her way back towards the barn.

"Jackie!" Rayne exclaimed excitedly as she came in through the door. "It came. My letter came!"

Rayne tackled Jackie in a lift off, spinning hug as Jackie laughed and did her best to keep her hat on.

"Well, what'sit say?" Jackie said as she was set back down as she straightened her hat.

"'m not sure, yet." Rayne fist bumped Big Mac. "'Sup, Mac?"

"Eeyup."

"Great conversationalist as always, Mac." Rayne laughed before getting hit in the back of the head. "Ow, Jackie! What's that for?"

"Read the dang letter!"

"Alright, alright."

"Dear Miss Rayne B. Dash,

We regret to inform you that you do not meet all of the criteria to be an official Wonderbolt..."

"Oh, RD...ah'm so sorr-"

"...But you do meet enough criteria to go to our Wonderbolts training camp run by the Wonderbolts own Captain Fyre. Congratulations."

"Dash!" Jackie exclaimed as she grabbed Rayne's shoulders. "Y'all got in! Why aren't y'all cheering or fainting or something!"

"There's a plane ticket in here." Rayne pulled it out. "I'm going away."

"W-Well, where are y'all goin'?" Jackie cleared her throat.

"I'm going to Cloudsdale."

"That's not too bad, at least."

"It's for a year."
