Alright! Time for the next chapter! Once again, this one was pretty easy to make and didn't take to long but I still had fun. Hope you all enjoy!


"Alright, got my hat, the jacket, all I need is my whistle…" Lincoln listed off as he was getting ready for something. Rainbow Dash had asked Lincoln if he could help coach the Ponyville flying team for the upcoming Equestria Games. And to dress for the job, Lincoln was wearing a black and white striped cap and a jacket with the Ponyville logo on the back that Rarity made for him. The only thing he was missing was a whistle. "Hey Wendy! Have you seen my whistle?!"

"NO!" Wendy yelled back from Twilight's room. "I HAVEN'T SEEN IT!"

"THANKS ANYWAY!" Lincoln yelled back…before hearing some distance sounds of action packed fighting coming form the room. "ARE YOU AND TWILIGHT WATCHING ANIME AGAIN!?"

"NO!" Twilight quickly yelled back.

"MAYBE!" Wendy yelled after a moment of silence.

"…Yes." Both admitted in unison.

Lincoln rolled his eyes but smirked in amusement. He then felt something tugging on his pant leg and looked down to see Spike looking up at him and holding the object Lincoln was looking for in his claw. "I found your whistle Lincoln." The young dragon told the human as Lincoln smiled and took his whistle. "You left it on the kitchen table."

"Thank Spike." Lincoln thanked as he put the whistle around his neck. However, the white head then gained a confused expression as he looked back at Spike. "Wait why was it on the table?"

"I dunno." Spike said with a shrug before walking away. "I don't keep track of where you put your stuff."

"Thanks." Lincoln deadpanned before lighting smacking his cheeks and getting himself back in the right mood. He gained an excited and determined smile before calling out to Twilights room. "Alright! I'll meet ya guys there! See ya later!"

"See you there!" The girl/mare called back in unison as Lincoln quickly left the library.


"All right Ponies! Listen up!" Rainbow Dash announced as he flew in front of her teammates. For the flying competition of the Equestria, Ponyville's team consisted of Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and the insanely buff Pegasus Bulk Bisceps. Lincoln was also besides Rainbow Dash with both of them giving firm looks to the other two members of the Ponyville team.

Angel Bunny was also there and next to Fluttershy to offer moral support.

"We're all ears." Fluttershy said with a smile before looking to Bulk Biceps. "Right Bulk Biceps?"

Bulk Biceps, an insanely buff white Pegaus with red eyes, a darkish blue mane and tail with the mane done in a buzz cut and a weight as a Cutie Mark, flexed and kissed his muscles a few times before looking back at the rest of the group and standing on his hind legs and flexing his muscles even more. "Uh-huh! I'm all muscles!" Bulk then flips and landed on his fore-hooves and started doing push-ups before screaming. "Yeah!" With the scream blowing Angel away.

"Liking that hype Bulk Biceps." Lincoln said as he put his hands behind his back and looked down at the muscular Pegasus. "But listen, these the Equestria Games we're training for here. Meaning we gotta put even more than our all into this. So, from here on out, we're here to chew gum and fly hard! And we're all outta gum!"

"Um, I think I have some gum." Fluttershy said before Lincoln got right into her face.

"NO GUM IN MY PRESENCE!" Lincoln snapped making Fluttershy jump up with a wild flinch.

"EEK!" Fluttershy squeaked as she hid behind Bulk.

"…Ok if I'm taking this to far just tell me." Lincoln said in his normal friendly tone. "My sister Lynn told me to be firm and aggressive if I ever coach or teach but if I'm going to far just tell me and I'll reel it back a bit."

"No, no! Keep it up! Loving the hype!" Bulk cheered while flexing again with Lincoln nodding and giving a thumbs up in response.

"Alright everypony, reel it in." Rainbow Dash said as she started flying around the 3 of them. "Look, we are the aerial relay team, and it's up to the three of us to make sure that we qualify at the tryouts. And do I need to you how much I-I mean, Ponyville wants to qualify and it to the games?"

"Nice save there." Lincoln said sarcastically, earning him a hoof bump to the shoulder from Rainbow.

"I remember!" Fluttershy spoke up with a small but excited smile and a light blush on her face as she looked at Rainbow Dash. "I really, really, really, want to qualify for you AND Ponyville!"

"BRING IT ON!" Bulk yelled with his shout blowing Fluttershy's mane.

"Alright! We got the attitude and the will to win." Lincoln said with a nod of approval. "Now we just gotta prepare you guys for the actual qualifications." Lincoln was then about to blow his whistle when-

"Gimme a P for Ponyville!" Suddenly Pinkie Pie appeared from nowhere wearing a cheerleaders uniform which consisted of a big yellow ribbon with a pink strip in her mane, a necklace with small pom-poms on it, and sleeves yellow top with pink highlights that connected to a purple skirt with yellow stipes that came from the bottom, another ribbon around her tail identical to the one in her mane, a megaphone necklace, and finally yellow pom-pom gloves on her front hooves.

Pinkie quickly started shaking her pom-poms in Fluttershy, who coward to the ground in response. "Peeeeeeeee, PONYVILLE!" Pinkie cheered into her megaphone.

"P!" Bulk yelled, sending Pinkie Pie flying in response.

Fluttershy then went up to Pinkie as the pink party Pony stood back up. "Thanks Pinkie Pie, that was a scary-" Pinkie frowned a bit as Fluttershy quickly changed what she said. "I mean, great, cheer." Pinkie smiled widely in response while Fluttershy mentally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Pinkie! We were supposed to go together!"

Lincoln smiled at the familiar voice of his girlfriend and turned around…and froze with widened eyes at what he saw.

Wendy was wearing a matching cheerleader's outfit to Pinkie, only meant for a human of her size of course, and her hair being done up in pig tails with ribbons identical to Pinkie's. She had pink pom-poms to go along with Pinkie' yellow ones and also had a pom-pom necklace and megaphone around her neck.

"Woah…" Lincoln said while stunned as Wendy stopped in front of him and gave her boyfriend a smirk before striking a pose.

"How do I look Linky?" Wendy asked while shaking her pom-poms around.

"You look…wow." That was all Lincoln could say as Wendy covered her mouth with a pom-pom and giggled.

"Alright, enough gawking ladies!" Rainbow Dash yelled, snapping Lincoln's attention away from his cheerleader girlfriend. "Just make sure you two have a cheer ready for when we qualify for the Aerial Relay."

"Yes sir Rainbow Dash!" Pinkie and Wendy gave a salute to the blue Pegasus with their pom-poms.

"And after that, for when we win gold medals at the Equestria Games!" Bulk cheered while flexing his muscles.

"Not so fast!" A familiar country voice was heard. The group then looked to see Applejack approaching them while pulling a cart that was filled to the brim with muffins. "If yer gonna be good, yer gonna be better with some a' my apple Brown Betty's in ya! They're perfect!"

"Carbo loading. Good call Applejack." Lincoln praised with Applejack giving a tip of her Stenson to Lincoln in response.

Just then Pinkie suddenly emerged from the cart of Brown Betty's and shouted. "P is for Perfect!"

"Pinkie!" Wendy pouted as she stomped her foot on the ground. "Together! Remember!"

"Oops. Sorry." Pinkie apologized with a sheepish smile.

The group then took a short 5 minutes break to munch on the food Applejack made and once that was over Rainbow Dash called for everypony. "All right, team!" Rainbow Dash yelled making Fluttershy and Bulk stop eating and walk up to her quickly. "Show me what you've got!"

"Show us why your called Pegasus in the first place!" Lincoln yelled, gaining back his 'coach-persona.'

"Bend those knees!" Rainbow followed up with Fluttershy responded quickly and bending her knees. "Flap those wings!" This time it was directed at Bulk who quickly went on to start flapping his incredibly tine wings.

"Look like someone skipped wing day." Lincoln quietly muttered as he watched Bulk's tiny wings flap. The only part of the white Pegasus that wasn't incredibly jacked.

"Alright! I want to see all four hooves of the ground on the count of three!" Rainbow Dash yelled as both Bulk and Fluttershy got ready to take off. Rainbow then smirked as she got down rather quickly. "One, two, three!"

Bulk and Fluttershy quickly responded with Fluttershy grunting as she was the first to take off into the sky. However, Bulk had to put in a lot more effort as he grunted and shouted loudly and slowly took off into the sky. He then reached the level Fluttershy was at while still screaming causing Lincoln to tell the buff Pegasus. "Don't forgot to breathe their big guy!"

Bulk Biceps then, after a moment of keeping his breath in, inhaled but this caused him to loss focus of flying and to start falling down. He tried to grab on to Fluttershy for support, but all this did was send the yellow Pegasus back down to earth with both of them landing on top of Rainbow Dash.

"I'm honestly surprised he was able to stay in the air that long." Wendy whispered to Pinkie who currently had her cheeks stuffed like a chipmunk with Brown Betty's.

Pinkie then swallowed as she waved her pom-poms around and gave the flight team a sheepish smile. "P is more…uh," Pinkie lightly cheered while looking to Wendy.

"Pain?" The Japanese girl finished as she lightly waved her pom-poms around with her own sheepish smile.


A few hours later into the day, the Mane 6, Bulk Biceps, Lincoln and Wendy were now on a train heading to where the qualifications were being held. As they were sitting, a male and female Pegasus walked past the group and looked towards Rainbow with the female Pegasus saying. "Good luck Rainbow Dash! Sorry we couldn't fly with you on the aerial relay, but the air sprinters needed us too."

"To bad we can only compete in one event." The male Pegasus added in. "But rules are rules!"

The two Pegasus then walked away into the next train-car with Twilight waving to them. "Good luck!" The purple Alicorn said to them. Twilight then turned to Rainbow Dash and put a hoof on the blue Pegasus's shoulder. "It was nice of you to be part of a team that doesn't have uh…" Twilight struggled to think of words that weren't offensive. "The strongest flyers."

"Wow, thanks for believing in them Twilight." Lincoln said sarcastically making Twilight smiling nervously and avert her eyes away.

However, Rainbow simply held up her head and said. "Nothing nice about it!" The blue Pegasus said before giving Twilight a confident look. "I know that I can pick up the slack for anypony. With me on the team, we'll qualify. I'm sure of it!"

Lincoln and Twilight smirked and rolled their eyes as Wendy got Rainbow Dash's attention by waving her pom-poms around. "Just remember Dashie, theirs no I in team!" The silver haired girl cheered.

"Relax, I know." Rainbow stated as she looked out the window. "We got this in the bag."

"Well Ponyville is very lucky to have you." Twilight said as she also looked out the window of the train.

"Yeah, I'm pretty awesome!" Rainbow Dash bragged like usual.

Just then they heard the grunt of Fluttershy and saw her struggling to get out from Bulk Biceps side due to sitting on the same seat as him. She then managed to squeeze her head out and a hoof that was holding a flag with the Equestria Games logo on it. "I am so proud to be able to represent Ponyville!" Fluttershy cheered before groaning a bit as Bulk adjusted himself in his seat causing Fluttershy to wince from being squeeze between the train wall and buff Pegasus. "It's such an honor to even try out for the games. I just hope I don't let anypony down."

"We'll make them proud." Bulk Biceps cheered.

"P IS FOR PROUD!" Pinkie Pie suddenly cheered from behind Bulk and actually managing to send the white Pegasus flying, allowing Fluttershy to sit up and breath properly. "We're going to be the best fans anypony has ever seen!"

Suddenly Rarity popped up from the seat behind Fluttershy and gave her two-sense. "Can't wait to see what everypony else is wearing, even though I am absolutely sure they won't be better than the Ponyville uniforms I'm designing for the Equestria games."

"And we WILL make it to the games once everypony carbo loads on my Apple Brown Bettys." Applejack said from next to her marefriend while holding up one of her mentioned treats.

"I can't wait!" Pinkie cheered enthusiastic.

"Hey! I think I can see it from here!" Lincoln said as he looked out with the window. "Alright everyone, get your game faces on!"

After 5 minutes, the group made it to their location. Rainbow Falls. A place named for having rainbow waterfalls. "Woooooooah." Wendy said in amazement as she looked up at the massive rainbow-colored waterfalls. "This place is so pretty…"

"Alright we can sight see later." Rainbow Dash told Wendy as she flew right in front of the human girl's face. "We got some qualifications to get to."

Wendy pouted a bit as she followed the rest of the group to where they needed to be. Soon enough the group made it to a large area where teams of ponies, and even a team of griffons, were training and preparing themselves to qualify for the games. As the Ponyville group passed by everyone, some ponies stopped when they noticed Rainbow Dash. "Look! There's Rainbow Dash! She's an awesome flyer!" A male Pegasus called out.

"I heard that she's flying the last third of the relay, which means everypony else is gonna have to be way ahead to beat her." A female Pegasus said as they watched the Ponyville group set up their station in an open area.

But right as they were setting up, suddenly they heard zipping through the sky and looked up. Everypony gasped as they witness none other than, "The Wonderbolts!" The same male Pegasus said as they Wonderbolts started heading towards the ground to land. All three Wonderbolts were in uniform which consisted of a blue full-body skin tight suit with lightning bolt patterns and goggles protecting their eyes.

"I hear they're flying for Cloudsdale." The same female Pegasus said as they, and especially Rainbow Dash, watched the Wonderbolts land. "Then they're definitely qualify. They're the best flyers ever!"

"And the game is on." Rainbow Dash turned around as the place the Wonderbolts decided to land was right behind her. The member that spoke up was the leader herself, Spitfire.

"Nice to see there's some real competition here." A male Wonderbolt name Soarin said to Rainbow Dash as he removed his goggles.

"Two more days of practice when we'll see you in the air, Rainbow Dash." A female Wonderbolt named Fleetfoot said as she walked up to Rainbow Dash and pressed hoof against the rainbow maned Pegasus's chest before walking away. "If you're lucky."

Once the Wonderbolts walked away, Twilight and Lincoln walked to Rainbow's side as the blue Pegasus rose her head up proudly. "The Wonderbolts know a winner when they see one. And we'll be winners just as soon as we practice. Right team?"

"Right!" Fluttershy said with a small smile.

"Yeah!" Bulk cheered while flexing.

"Hooray!" Pinkie cheered as she threw some confetti out of her pom-poms. She then pulled out and blew in a noisemaker as Wendy jumped up and saw while waving around her pom-poms.

"Goooooo PONYVILLE!" Wendy cheered into her megaphone.

"And um…" Twilight began saying as Rainbow Dash smiled at her. "I'm with them. Hooray!" However, Twilights rather sheepish cheer made Rainbow Dash pout at the purple Alicorn.

"Twilight, who's side are you on?" Lincoln asked the purple Alicorn with a light glare causing Twilight to duck down and slowly back away.

"Give us some clouds!" Suddenly the group heard cheering and looked to see two Pegasus cheerleaders in front of the Wonderbolts attracting attention from the other pony's present. "Gives us some Dale! What do you get? Cloudsdale! WHOOOOO!"

"Oooooo! Their good." Wendy said while narrowing her eyes at the Cloudsdale cheerleaders.

"Were can I get pom-poms like those?" Pinkie asked as she looked at the Cloudsdale cheerleaders with sparkling eyes

"Alright ponies enough of that. We gotta round up." Lincoln announced as he blew his whistle. Fluttershy and Bulk flinched as they quickly went next to each other and stood up straight as Lincoln and Rainbow Dash went in front of them and got back into 'coach-mode.'

"Alright ponies, do I need to remind you what our goal is?" Rainbow Dash asked her teammates as Bulk scratched his head.

"Uh…maybe." The buff Pegasus said with a sheepish smile.

"Son your goal her is to get you and your team qualified for the games!" Lincoln yelled right into Bulk Biceps face causing the muscular Pegasus to flinch and rapidly nod. "If you wanna do that, then you need to be one of the first four teams to cross the finish line up there." Lincoln then pointed behind him and up at a cloud surrounded by a rainbow platform with a checkered finish line attached to two poles.

"Bulk Biceps, you're the first flyer, so let me see you flap it!" Rainbow Dash said as she looked right into the white Pegasus's eyes.

Bulk Biceps grunted as he started to rapidly flap his tiny wigs and start taking off into the air. Lincoln had to cover his mouth to muffle a laugh at the honestly comedic sight. But as Bulk was flying suddenly something came from below and hitting him in the face causing him to fall back down to the ground.

Rainbow flew to where Bulk was and looked down to see what hit Bulk Biceps was one of Applejacks Brown Bettys thrown by Applejack herself with the farm pony using her tail. Applejack launched another on into the air with Rainbow Dash backing out of the way. "What the?" The Pegasus questioned as the Brown Betty splattered on the ground.

"Sorry!" Applejack apologized as she looked up to Rainbow Dash. "Got the idear from them, but…" Applejack and Rainbow Dash looked to see two ponies launching, with a catapult, their own treats into the air with the Wonderbolts catching them in their mouths. "It looks like they've got better aim."

Rainbow Dash then looked back, with Bulk Biceps back in the air and Fluttershy now flying next to them, and gained a firm look while holding up a horseshoe. "Ok, the passing of the baton needs to be seamless. You shouldn't miss a wing beat or drop a hair in altitude." Rainbow Dash then took Bulk Biceps hoof and placed the baton in his hood. "And whatever you do, don't let go of it!"

Fluttershy then flew in front of Bulk and said. "Are you really, really, really, sure you're ready?" Fluttershy asked the white Pegasus in order to be certain. "I mean, I don't want to take it if you're not super sure."

"Ready!" Bulk screamed as he started to hand the baton to Fluttershy.

Fluttershy successfully took the baton…only for it to slip out of her hoof. Fluttershy tried grabbing it again but it ended up slipping from her grasp and falling down to earth with it being caught by Lincoln. "You let go of it." Lincoln yelled to them before rubbing his head. "This is gonna be a LOOOOOOOONG training session."

Just then Rarity walked up to Lincoln and cleared her throat to get the whitette's attention. "Excuse me Lincoln, but may I please see that?"

Lincoln raised a brow at the white Unicorn but simply shrugged and held it out to her. Rarity took the baton in her magic and looked over it before scoffing. "Well, Ponyville can do so much better. I'll be back with a freshly painted one in no time!"

Rarity then started walking away with the baton much to Rainbow Dash's annoyance. "We were using that!" The blue Pegasus yelled to the fashionista. "And it's not like anypony else has color-coordinated horseshoes or anything!"

"Expect them!" Wendy yelled while pointing with her pom-pom.

Rainbow Dash looked to where Wendy was pointing and saw that the Wonderbolts had their horseshoe covered gold. Rainbow Dash sighed as she landed on the ground with Lincoln and Twilight looking at her. "I guess someponies do."

"Someponies do what?" Twilight asked as she didn't quite hear the full conversation.

"Have a better chance at going to the Equestria Games than others." Rainbow Dash said in an unenthusiastic tone as she slouched down. While she herself was a great flyer, when it came to Fluttershy and Bulk Biceps…not so much with them.

"Well with that attitude then yeah you're definitely not gonna make it." Lincoln said rather harshly making Rainbow flinch.

"Lincoln!" Twilight scolded while giving the white-haired human a glare.

"Well its true." Lincoln stated as he looked back at Rainbow Dash. "If you think you suck your gonna suck and your team is gonna suck. You got hype yourselves up!"

Rainbow Dash took in Lincoln's words before perking backing up and putting on a firm expression. "Fluttershy! Bulk Biceps! Come on down! I wanna show you something!"

Fluttershy and Bulk looked at each other but followed Rainbow Dash orders and landed in front of the blue Pegasus and quickly started following her.


A few minutes later, Rainbow Dash had taken her teammates to the area where the Wonderbolts were station and practicing. "Watch and learn." Rainbow Dash said as Soarin flew past them. "The Cloudsdales are Wonderbolts and Wonderbolts are the best fliers there are. And my personal heroes." Rainbow Dash then gave her teammates a stern look making them both back up and flinch. "So maybe you can learn something." They then saw Soarin once again preform some expect flight tricks causing Rainbow Dash to making Bulk and Fluttershy look up at him. "PLEASE learn something!"

"Come on Soarin!" Fleetfoot then came up to the field and yelled at her teammate as he flew. "Pick up the pace! You can do better than that!"

"I sure hope so." Soarin said as she received a massage.

"Practice! Practice! YAY Practice!" The Wonderbolts cheerleaders cheered. This made Soarin remove his goggles and look at the mares cheering him on, but this distraction cause Soarin to hit the edge of a rainbow hoop and to started falling to the ground.

"HELP!" Soarin screamed as he approached the ground fast. Other ponies quickly came up to the scene which include the Ponyville group.

Lincoln quickly activated the Ultimatrix and started scrolling through aliens as fast as he could. "Come on, where are my flyers? Where are my flyers?" But before Lincoln could find any flying forms, a rainbow blur quickly sped past him and scoop up Soarin before he hit the ground.

This was of course none-other than Rainbow Dash. "Gotcha!" Rainbow said as she slowly down and gently set Soarin on the ground. However, this gave Soarin the opportunity to look at the wing that was also hit by the hoop he ran into and it was in rather rough shape.

Everypony then went up to Soarin and Rainbow Dash with most cheering for Rainbow's save. "Awesome!" Fleetfoot cheered while looking at Rainbow Dash.

"As good as any Wonderbolt!" Soarin complimented as she walked up to Rainbow Dash.

Fluttershy then walked up to Rainbow with a hint of pink on her cheeks from seeing her best friend save one of the Wonderbolts life. "Oh, Rainbow Dash, I'm so proud of you! You scooped Soarin out of the sky and brought him down to the ground, and now? Now he's ok. At least, I hope he's ok."

Lincoln then walked up to Spitfire and went to the side with the injured wing and gently picked it up and move it around a bit. Both he and Soarin winced as it seemed to be limped a little. "That looks pretty bad." Lincoln said quietly as he stood up and cupped his hands over his mouth. "MEDIC!"

Just then a siren was heard as a Stallion pulling a large bed with a med kit on it. Once it stopped, Wendy came up and lifted up Soarin and placed him on the bed. "Thanks." Soarin said to Wendy before looking to Rainbow Dash with a smile. "You're the best, Rainbow Dash!"

"Aw, it was nothing!" Rainbow Dash said, surprisingly modestly.

Soarin smiled again before turning to his teammates. "Don't worry guys, I should be good in time for the competition." And with that, Soarin was dragged off to an infirmary.

Just the Bulk Biceps ran up to everypony and shouted, "P IS FOR RAINBOW DASH!"

However, Fluttershy flew up to his ear and whispered. "Um, Rainbow Dash actually starts with an R." to the bulk Pegasus.

Bulk's eyes widened as he yelled. "Nevermind!" Before crouching down in embarrassment a bit.

Everypony simply decided to ignore that and Rainbow Dash turned to the remaining two Wonderbolt members. "Tough break to lose a teammate right before the tryouts."

However, Fleetfoot and Spitfire looked to each other with a smirk before putting on their sunglasses and looking at Rainbowdash with the former speaking up. "You know…you grew up in Cloudsdale."

"So, that means you could fly with us." Spitfire finished.

"Fly?" Rainbow Dash asked in a bit of confused and uncertain tone.

"Uh, we mean practice." Fleetfoot 'corrected' herself. "You could practice with us until Soarin is better."

"What do you say?" Spitfire asked with a confident smirk. "Wanna be our third?"

"Uuuuh…" Rainbow Dash tried to say but then heard Lincoln clearing his throat rather harshly and looked to the Ultimatrix user and saw him gesturing his head towards Rainbow Dash's teammates. Rainbow Dash then looked backed to the Wonderbolts and said. "My team really needs me to be at my best in order to qualify. Don't wanna be too worn out by the time the race comes around."

"Yeah, we have some training to do and we need all three of them to do it." Lincoln explained as he crossed both of his arms. "And you're all professionals with years of practice under your belts so I think you're good."

The two Wonderbolts narrowed their eyes at Lincoln for a moment before looking back to Rainbow Dash with Spitfire speaking up. "We put you through some pretty intense workouts at the Wonderbolts Academy and you handled those just fine."

Rainbow thought about it for a moment before smiling. "Heh, I did kick some major tail at the Academy." However, Rainbow Dash then considered something else. "But I don't know how my teammates will feel about me practicing with the competition."

'I know how one of them would feel.' Lincoln thought as he glanced back to look at Fluttershy.

"Who says they need to know?" Fleetfoot said as she stepped closer to Rainbow Dash.

"Ok, enough of that." Lincoln decided to put a stop to this as he stood between Rainbow Dash and the two Wonderbolt. "Look I see what you two are doing and I'm not gonna let it happen. You worry about your team; we'll worry about ours."

Fleetfoot and Spitfire scoffed at Lincoln before looking to Rainbow Dash again with the former speaking up again. "Just think about it Dash. This is your chance to fly in the winners circle." And with that, the two Wonderbolts walked off.

Lincoln nodded at seeing them leave but then looked to Rainbow Dash who was looking between her team. "Hold on you're not actually considering this are you?!" Lincoln yelled to Rainbow Dash.

"Well…maybe…" Rainbow Dash admitted as she scratched the back of her mane. "I mean…its just practice, right? And what the others don't know won't hurt em. And if I could get practice in, I could help the team even more."

Lincoln sighed in irritation as he pinched the bridge of his nose while shaking his head. "You know what…go ahead." Lincoln said while looking right at Rainbow Dash.

"What…really?" Rainbow Dash asked with confusion and surprised.

"Yeah, you go play with the big kids. I'll handle the actual team players here." Lincoln said as he pointed to Fluttershy and Bulk Biceps. "You wanna go train and help out the enemy then that's your decision."

Before Rainbow Dash could say anything, Lincoln walked away and went over to the other two members of the Ponyville team. Rainbow Dash did feel a little guilty…but she honestly did really want to train for the Wonderbolts.


And train with them she did. Over the course of the day, Rainbow Dash would constantly which between training with the two Wonderbolts and training with her own team. When her team was distracted her busy with a certain exercise, she would use that opportunity to switch over to training with the Wonderbolts. All the while Lincoln didn't even acknowledge her most of the time and help Fluttershy and Bulk Biceps with their training.

However, Twilight was starting to catch on as she started to keep an eye on Rainbow Dash and was starting to notice her sneaking off somewhere.

All the while the Ponyville group was putting in hard work and effort to help out the team. Applejack providing her Brown Betty's, Wendy and Pinkie practicing their cheers together, and Rarity making the group outfits.

And then when Rainbow Dash landed after flying with the Wonderbolts, she took off the silver uniform made for the Cloudsdale team behind a tree, she walked up to a pond and quickly started quickly water from it while sweat dripped from her head.

"Pretty thirsty there huh?"

"Must be from practicing with two teams!"

Rainbow Dash flinched and coughed up some water as she looked to the side and saw both Twilight and Lincoln giving her stern glares. The blue Pegasus then looked to Lincoln and said. "You told her?"

"Actually, I figured it out myself." Twilight stated with Lincoln nodding.

"I just tagged along." Lincoln explained as he crossed his arms. "And incase you're wondering, no, the others don't know. They're just working hard and wondering why you keep wondering off."

"Well…I've seen the other teams practicing and we're still gonna qualify!" Rainbow Dash defended before flying up to the air in less then a second. "I can fly fast enough to make up the distance."

"That's not the point here Rainbow Dash." Lincoln said while narrowing his eyes at the Pegasus. "The point here is that you're not with your team."

"Yeah, and its obvious one team needs more help then others." Twilight added in, fully agreeing with Lincoln on this one.

"But its so much more fun practicing with the winners than the…um…the non-winners." Rainbow Dash said slowly, not wanting to use the L word to describe her team.

Lincoln had no problem with it though.

"You do know that you're on the team your talking about so you're pretty much calling yourself a loser." Lincoln said bluntly, making Rainbow Dash glare at him.

"It doesn't matter since Ponyville with still qualify!" Rainbow Dash continued to defend herself.

Just then the flapping wings of two Pegasus were heard and the three of them looked to see Spitfire and Fleetfoot flying down to them. "Rainbow Dash, you got a minute?" Spitfire asked the rainbow maned Pegasus.

Lincoln narrowed his eyes at the Wonderbolts while Twilight rose a brow with Rainbow saying, "Uh, sure." Before flying over to them.

"You could really be an asset to our team so, we want you to join the Cloudsdale team. Permanently!" Fleetfoot revealed with Spitfire nodding.

Rainbow Dash let out a high-pitched happy gasp in response as Lincoln quickly intervened. "Alright hold on, you already have 3 guys."

"Nope." Spitfire stated. "It looks like Soarin's wings won't heal in time for the trails. We want you to fly with us Rainbow Dash." The Wonderbolts leader said as she wrapped a hoof around the blue Pegasus.

"Of course, this means you won't be able to fly for Ponyville." Fleetfoot explained to Rainbow. "But let's face it, even you on their team, their chances of qualifying for the Games are pretty slim."

"Excuse me?!" Lincoln yelled as he started to walk up to the Wonderbolts but was halted as Twilight held him in a magical grip.

"Easy there Lincoln." Twilight said sternly.

The Wonderbolts ignored Lincoln as Spitfire spoke up to Rainbow Dash. "So…what's it gonna be?"

"W-Well…I…" Rainbow Dash struggled to think of a response as the Wonderbolts started flying into the air.

"Just think about it!" Spitfire said as she and Fleetfoot took off.

"Yeah you better run, er, fly!" Lincoln yelled at the two Pegasus are they flew away.

"They want me to fly with them!" Rainbow Dash yelled in excited as she started flying around Twilight and Lincoln. "Its like a dream come true!"

"Yeah, a dream come true, expect that you'll be bailing out on everyone in the process!" Lincoln yelled at Rainbow as the blue Pegasus looked back at him and the purple Alicorn. "I mean think of all the hard work we've and everyone else has put into this."

"Yeah, if you don't fly for Ponyville, Pinkie Pie and Wendy won't have anypony to cheer for. Rarity's uniforms will never be seen. And Applejack will have slaved over those Apple Brown Bettys for nothing."

"So, it's not just your team that's suffering here." Lincoln stated with a nod at Twilights words. "You're letting down everyone that's help out."

"But I really want to fly with the BEST team!" Rainbow Dash said as she flew up to the two of them. "What would you two do?"

"I think this is a decision you have to make on you own." Twilight told the rainbow maned Pegasus before walking away.

"The choice is yours; you can help out your friends, or ditch em and make all of our efforts to help you go to waste." Lincoln said in a firm tone before following Twilight.


THE NEXT DAY

Things were in full swing now. Today was the day that the events were being held. Where the teams would compete to qualify for the Equestria Games. Only, one team might have a bit of an issue. Rainbow Dash still hasn't chosen between Ponyville and Cloudsdale. And what was our favorite speedster Pegasus doing about it right now?

"Oh wow! Woe is me! Oooh!" Rainbow Dash suddenly came into view…on a wheelchair. Rainbow Dash's head, all four hooves, and her wings and body were wrapped up in bandages.

The other ponies around the area quickly noticed Rainbow Dash's state and walked up to check on her. Fluttershy in particular screamed loudly and was by Rainbow's side in an instant checking over her best friend. "Oh my goodness! Rainbow Dash! What in Equestria happened to you!?" The yellow Pegasus asked with nothing but concern in her voice.

"Oh, you've gotta be kidding me." Lincoln muttered as he and Twilight narrowed their eyes harshly at Rainbow.

"Urg…I've hurt my hoof." Rainbow Dash groan in a way to dramatic tone as she showed Fluttershy one of her wrapped up hoofs.

Spitfire then came up to Rainbow Dash and inspected all of Rainbow Dash's hooves and asked with a raised brow. "All of them?"

"I, uh, tripped on a-a foam hoof…" Rainbow Dash stuttered as she tried to give a response. "And landed on a…um…uh…pokey stick coming out of the ground…"

Pinkie then started to growl as she said. "If I get my hooves on that," Pinkie then mimicked the muttering gibberish Rainbow Dash let out. "it'll be in big trouble!"

"Oh, you poor thing." Wendy quietly said in a sympathetic tone while covering her mouth with a pom-pom.

"There's no way I can fly now." Rainbow Dash dramatically yelled.

"Do you think you'll be better by tryouts?" Fluttershy asked as she lightly stocked Rainbow Dash's back to comfort her best friend.

Rainbow Dash let out some loud groaning noises in response. "I'll be lucky if I ever fly again!" Rainbow yelled before sighing. "I just need a little rest."

"Oh, don't worry Rainbow Dash. We'll take good care of you." Fluttershy said in a gentle and comforting tone as she stood behind Rainbow Dash's wheelchair and put her hooves on Rainbow Dashes shoulder. This action caused Rainbow Dash to blush a little bit, but she still leaned into the yellow hooves. "We'll get a doctor to look after you right away."

However, this cause Rainbow Dash to gain a worried look as she gulped.


Later, Rainbow Dash was in the infirmary and laying on a bed with all four of her hooves behind supported up. She was also connected to an EKG while her friends surround the bed.

"So, we medic pony isn't sure what's wrong with you." Twilight said to Rainbow Dash while giving her a knowing look.

"Huh, weird." Lincoln said while narrowing his eyes at Rainbow. "Its almost as if there's nothing wrong with you."

"Oh, there is something wrong with me." Rainbow Dash said in a dramatic tone that would rival Rarity's dramatic tone. "Everything! Absolutely everything!"

"My God its Lola all over again." Lincoln muttered at a volume that nopony else could hear.

"Here Sugarcube," Applejack said as she walked up to Rainbow Dash with a Brown Betty in her hoof and stuffed it into Rainbow Dash's mouth. "This'll cure everythin' that ails ya!"

Rainbow Dash chewed on the treat and spoke to Applejack with her mouth full. "Thank you. I couldn't have done that on my own."

Rarity then walked up to Rainbow Dash and used her magic to pull a sparkly purple ribbon out of her saddle bag. "Nothing says 'get better' like a little medical pizazz! Silk slings and a glitter bandage?" Rarity said as she levitated the ribbon to Rainbow Dash's upper right hoof and tied it around the bandaged limp.

"That might help." Rainbow Dash said after swallowing the Brown Betty.

Just then the door to the infirmary opened and Fluttershy stepped in. "And how is our patient doing?" Fluttershy asked in her usual kind tone as Bulk Biceps struggled a bit to get through the door.

"I've been better." Rainbow Dash groaned as Fluttershy stepped next to the blue Pegasus's bed.

"We just wanted to let you know that we're so sorry you're hurt, but you shouldn't worry a bit about not being able to be in the tryouts." Fluttershy explained making Rainbow Dash put on a saddened expression. "We'll be alright. We even have a replacement. We're so, so sorry that you can't compete. We all know how much you love to fly."

"Wait…replacement?" Rainbow Dash asked with a raised brow. "Who did you find to replace me?"

"Me." Lincoln revealed as he pointed to himself.

Rainbow Dash's eyes widened as her head snapped over to the white head. "You?!" Rainbow Dash yelled.

Lincoln then activated the Ultimatrix and took a moment to scroll through his aliens before finding the right transformation and slamming the core down. Everypony was briefly blinded by the green flash and when they could see again, they saw Lincoln was now in his Pegasus form.

"Jet Wing!" The orange Pegasus announced as he spread his wings. "Since you can't compete due to your…situation I volunteered to be the third flyer."

Fluttershy nodded and turned back to Rainbow Dash. "And we promise-"

"Cross our hearts!" Bulk Biceps yelled, interrupting Fluttershy.

"...That if we qualify and make it to the Equestria Games and all win gold medals, you can have ours!" Fluttershy told her best friend, making her silently gasp. "Because we know how much a gold medal means to you."

Rainbow Dash's eyes sparkled as she looked at Fluttershy as her heart clenched a little. "Thanks…"

Twilight then roughly cleared her throat getting everypony's attention on her. "I think Rainbow Dash might need to rest some more." Twilight told everypony as most of them nodded and muttered in agreement.

"Come on guys." Lincoln said to Bulk and Fluttershy. "We got some serious work to do."

"Don't forget your Bettys!" Applejack yelled to Rainbow Dash as she and everypony else left.

Once they all left, Twilight looked to Rainbow Dash and sighed. "You know, choosing not to choose isn't really a decision." And with that, Twilight took her leave as well.

Rainbow Dash looked down in sadness in guilt once her purple friend was gone right as a familiar voice came from next to her. "You sure have nice friends." Rainbow Dash looked next to her and the curtain besides her bed was moved to the side as she saw none other then the male Wonderbolt member Soarin in the bed next to her with his wing wrapped up similar to her wings. "Nopony's been by to visit me. Eh, too busy practicing, I guess."

Rainbow Dash gave Soarin a small smile as she said. "Well, hopefully your wing will be better soon."

"Oh, it's fine." Soarin revealed as he turned a bit to give Rainbow a full view of his wing and flapped it a few times to show that it was true. His wing was perfectly fine. "I-I'm just keeping it warm in case my team wants me back."

However, Rainbow Dash gained an incredibly confused look at hearing this. "What do you mean, 'wants you back?" Rainbow Dash asked in a tone that matched her expression. "Spitfire and Fleetfoot told me that you were still too injured to fly!"

"And they told me that they were worried I wouldn't be one hundred percent by the tryouts, so they were going with somepony else!" Soarin explained as he also gained a confused tone.

"That somepony else was me!" Rainbow Dash revealed to the Wonderbolt. "Until, uh, well, until I got hurt, that is."

Soarin let out a sigh before speaking. "I guess we're all out of luck. Cloudsdale won't qualify without three fliers, and Ponyville won't qualify without you. Too bad..."

Now Rainbow Dash was truly felt guilty. By not choosing either team, she pretty much screwed them both from getting into the Equestria Games. Not that she really should have considered this a choice anyway. She should have stuck with Ponyville. She should have stuck with her friends.

Just then a beam of light shone through the window and was directed right at the pitcher of water on the other side of Raindow's bed. Suddenly a rainbow beam of light came out of the pitcher and shone down on a Ponyville flag that's been dropped on the ground. As Rainbow Dash looked at the flaf, her eyes suddenly glowed like a rainbow as she realized what she had to do.


Later, the Ponyville group was at their station all feeling pretty down in the dumps. "Well…this sucks." Wendy said bluntly as she sat down on her butt while having the move her pig tails out of her face.

"Even with Rainbow Dash's replacement, I don't think we're going to qualify…no offense." Twilight said to the Ponyville team as they all sighed.

"No…I think we're screwed." Jet Wing admitted as his wings slumped down.

Pinkie let out a grunt of irritation as she tossed of her rainbow color wig and gestured to a giant pile of pom-poms behind her. "What am I going to do with all these now?!" Pinkie yelled as everypony raised a brow at her.

"What were ya gonna do with them before?" Applejack asked with a confused tone.

"There's only so many limbs between the two of us Pinkie Pie." Wendy said as she unenthusiastically waved her own set of pom-poms around.

Rarity then let out a grown as she used her magic to levitate an outfit she just finished making up into the air for everypony to see. "Maybe my Equestria Games uniforms will still be in style next year. I mean, I am pretty fashion forward."

But just then, a figured walked past the group making them all raise their lowered heads. Twilight was the first to speak up as they all saw what was happening. "Is that Rainbow Dash…walking?"

Sure enough, everypony was witnessing Rainbow Dash, despite all the bandages she was covered in, walking and moving with complete ease and no pain. And right behind Rainbow Dash was Soarin. The two were walking up to none other then Soarin's fellow Wonderbolts Spitfire and Fleetfoot who stopped what they were doing and looked at the two Pegasus in surprise.

"Uh, does this mean you're feeling better?" Fleetfoot asked Rainbow Dash in a confused tone.

Rainbow Dash looked down in shame for a brief moment before telling the trust. "I feel great…because I was never hurt in the first place." Rainbow Dash revealed as she proceeded to tear all the bandaged off of her to show everypony she was perfectly fine.

Everypony, aside from Twilight and Jet Wing, gasped at the news with Bulk Biceps letting out an extremely high-pitched gasp. "I faked my injury so that I wouldn't have to choose between flying for Ponyville or Cloudsdale." Rainbow Dash explained as everypony gave all ears. "I wanted to fly with you both and the decision was too hard."

Fluttershy gave her best friend a gentle look as she worked up to her fellow Pegasus. "Oh, Rainbow Dash, you don't have to choose us." Fluttershy told the blue Pegasus with a small smile. "I know you love to win. And you should go with the team that surely will!"

Rainbow Dash blushed a bit at Fluttershy's words and smiled at the yellow Pegasus before speaking again. "I know now who I should have been loyal to."

"Good choice." Spitfire complimented, assuming Rainbow Dash was talking about them. "Always stick with the winners-OW!" Suddenly Spitfire was pelted in the head by a pebble thrown by none other then Wendy, who was already getting ready to throw another one if needed.

However, Rainbow Dash pointed to the side she was really taking. "Ponyville!" The Wonderbolts were taken aback by this while the Ponyville group all smiled widely. Fluttershy in particular had to use her mane to muffle a happy squeal. "Because it's not just where I live, but it's where my friends are, the ponies who really care about me, whether I can help them win a race or not."

The entire Ponyville group and Soarin cheered for the blue Pegasus with Jet Wing giving Rainbow Dash an approving nodded, to which Rainbow responded with a salute.

"Are you sure that's the right decisi-OW! QUITE THROWING PEBBLES AT ME!" Spitfire was saying but then got hit with another pebble by Wendy.

However, Rainbow Dash then got into Spitfire's face and glared at the Wonderbolt leader. "You lied to me about Soarin's wing just so you could get a better flyer!" Rainbow Dash said as Soarin crossed his hooves and glared at his fellow Wonderbolts. "You may be a winning team, but you're still not the kind of team I wanna be a part of."

"Huh." Spitfire hummed as she lowered her head. She was started to feel more then a little guilty now. "Rainbow Dash, you are something. Saw it at the Academy, seeing it again here. We could learn a lot from a competitor like you."

"Think we already have." Fleetfoot stated as she to started to feel bad for what she did as well.

Spitfire nodded before turning her head to face Soarin. "Ready to fly?" She asked the male Pegasus.

Soarin's eyes widened in response as he smiled widely. "Really?" He asked in an excited tone.

"Never should've lied and tried to replace you in the first place." Spitfire admitted. "I'm sorry."

Soarin then flew up into the air and did some loop-de-loops and cheered as loud as he could. "GO CLOUDSDALE!"

Everypony laughed and cheered as the rest of the Wonderbolts took off, however Jet Wing couldn't help but lower his head and sigh. Wendy noticed this and knelt down to her transformed boyfriends' level and petted his mane. "Something wrong Linky?" Wendy asked in a concerned tone.

"Nah its just…" Jet Wing begun to say as he scratched the back of his head. "Rainbow Dash is back on the team, which is a good thing of course, but I was kinda excited for this ya know? Competing in what is pretty much the pony Olympics. It would have been cool."

"Well, there's always next time." Wendy said in a supportive tone.

As it just so happens, Bulk Biceps heard their conversation and started thinking. The buff Pegasus looked at his tiny wings and flapped them for a bit before nodding to himself and making a decision. "Yo Lincoln." Bulk said, getting Jet Wings attention.

"Hm, yeah what's up Bulk Biceps?" Jet Wing asked as he looked up at the insanely jacked Pegasus.

"Well, here's the thing." Bulk began saying as he scratched his mane. "I'm…not the best flyer. Obviously. Strength and moving heavy objects are more my thing. And I want ponyville to have the best team possible for the Equestria Games."

Jet Wing's eyes widened as he caught onto what Bulk was saying. "Wait…you mean…" Jet Wing asked as he started to gain a smile.

Bulk nodded as he revealed what he wanted to tell Jet Wing. "I want you to take my spot in the competition."

Jet Wing gasped as he stuttered a bit. "A-Are you sure man?" Jet Wing asked as he would hate it if he just took Bulk's spot if the muscular Pegasus wasn't 100% sure.

However, Bulk gave a firm nod and smiled at the transformed Loud boy. "I'm sure. Make Ponyville proud." Bulk Biceps then gave the orange Pegasus a salute.

Jet Wing immediately returned the salute. "I will. I promise." Jet Wing said as he used his hoof to cross over his heart and seal his promise.


Now was the time for Qualifications. The Wonderbolts has just finished their run and, no surprise, they easily qualified for the games. Once that was settled, Soarin looked down at the flying course below and yelled. "GO PONYVILLE!"

"Aright…here we go." Jet Wing said as he was about to take off. Since Bulk gave him his place, Jet Wing would be going first. Before he took off…

"LINCOLN!" Jet Wing looked to see Wendy waving around her pom-poms. "WHY DON'T YOU AMP IT UP!?"

Jet Wing rose a brow at first, but then realized what Wendy was saying and looked at the Ultimatrix symbol on his flank. He's never done this before with any of his pony transformations. But Jet Wing simply have a wild grin. "Well…no time like the present!" Jet Wing yelled as he slapped the Ultimatrix symbol.

Four prongs then emerged from the Ultimatrix symbol as, instead of transforming, Jet Wing started evolving! Once it was complete, Jet Wings orange fur turned a pitch black with orange high lights over his body. His mane was changed to a buzz cut and he lost his tail. His wings now resembled the wings of jet and were also black with orange highlights. He had a bio-helmet over his head with a retractable visor similar to XLR8. His hind legs had what resembled mini-jet boosters on his feet and the lower half of his body had indents that looked like could fit his hind legs in perfectly. And overall his entire body was slightly bigger and more aerodynamic.

"ULTIMATE JET WING!" The hyper evolved Pegasus announced making everypony watching gasp at seeing the evolution.

"WHAT THE HECK?!" Spitfire yelled as she looked at U. Jet Wing.

Just then an air horn went off signaling for the Ponyville team to start. Time suddenly stopped for Ultimate Jet Wing. His visor went down covering his face and his wings spread out to be perfectly straight. His legs suddenly shifted and fit into the indents on his body. The mini boosters on the bottom of his hind hooves lit up as fire ignited from them, proving they also worked like actual boosters.

U. Jet Wing then took off. Fitting his appearance, he flew with the speed and precision of a jet. He easily passed through all the hoops set up in the track and reached Fluttershy within seconds. "Fluttershy! Take it!" Ultimate Jet Wing yelled as he reached the yellow Pegasus.

Fluttershy barely reacted in time to take the horseshoe from Ultimate Jet Wing. Fluttershy then quickly went through the course herself and while not nearly as fast as Ultimate Jet Wing but Fluttershy was able to pass through the hoops and go through the course as fast as she could all with her friends cheering her on.

"Rainbow Dash!" Fluttershy yelled as she held her hoof out as far as she could. When she reached the blue Pegasus, Rainbow Dash quickly took the horseshoe and became a rainbow blur as she speed through the course. She passed through much smaller rainbow hoops that were placed higher in the sky and led to the finish line.

Everypony watched in anticipation as Rainbow passed through the last hoop and was on the last part of the course which was a simple vertical fly up to the finish line. Rainbow Dash amped up the speed and quickly passed through the cloud.

The Unicorn who was there judging the even stopped the timer as he nodded with Rainbow Dash finishing the course with time to spare even! "Ponyville qualifies!"

The ponies watching quickly erupted into cheers. Wendy and Pinkie jumped around while waving their pom-poms in the air. Rainbow Dash smiled as Fluttershy and U. Jet Wing flew up to her and the three of them shared a group hug.

Later, the Unicorn judge was handing out the qualifications medals to the teams who were qualified to participate in the games. Last up was Ponyville and Jet Wing, who reverted back to a normal Pegasus, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash all jumped and cheered when they received their medals.

Just then, Rainbow Dash felt somepony poking her and looked to see Spitfire standing next to her. The Wonderbolts captain took of her Wonderbolts pin and placed it on the ribbon of Rainbow Dash's metal. She and her fellow Wonderbolts gave Rainbow Dash a salute before taking off into the sky with Rainbow Dash saluting to them as they flew away.

After that, Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Wendy, and Bulk Biceps all went up to the Ponyville flight team and grouped up with them on the podium they were on. The Unicorn judge then got a camera and pointed it at the group. "Equestria Games here we come!" Twilight cheered as they judge snapped the picture.


"Oh, I can't deny it. I love to win!" The next day, Rainbow Dash was in Twilights library writing in the friendship journal about the events that transpired. "But if I ever gotta choose between winning and being loyal to my friends, I'm always gonna choose my friends. 'Cause as much as I love winning, I love them waaaaay more."

To finished up, Rainbow Dash put her medal with the Wonderbolts pin inside the page and proceeded to fly out of the library…missing the object glow like a rainbow for a brief second.


THE HUMAN WORLD

In the human world, Vinyl Scratch was behind the counter of a music store rocking out to her headphones. But she was forced to stop when she saw some costumers coming in. And these customers were none other then the human Rarity, human Applejack, human Pinkie Pie, human Rainbow Dash, and Wallflower Blush. Rainbow Dash in particular was carrying a guitar case into the music store.

"Rainbow Dash, I simply don't understand why you can't simply play the guitar you own." Rarity said to the rainbow haired girl as she didn't see any need to go buy a new guitar when Rainbow already owns one.

Having, Rainbow Dash gave Rarity an unamused look as she opened her guitar case and showed off an incredibly worn down and broken guitar. "Oh…I see" Rarity corrected herself after seeing the guitar's condition.

"Yikes, that things more worn out then my mom's casserole." Wallflower commented getting everyone to give her confused looks. "She's…not a good cook."

"How about this one?" Pinkie asked as she suddenly brought up a purple guitar with zebra stripes.

"No." Rainbow Dash responded, not liking that guitar.

"Looky here!" Pinkie then held up a banjo.

"No." Rainbow repeated.

"Super curly!" Pinkie brought up a tuba.

"Pinkie, maybe just let Rainbow decide." Wallflower said as she started giggling at the pink skinned girls usual antics.

"But that's the problem Wallflower." Rainbow groaned as she started pacing ahead. "I need something as awesome as I'm gonna make it sound!" Rainbow then gasped as she looked right in front of her. On display was a red guitar with two handles with lightning bolts and stars on it.

Rainbow Dash smiled at the guitar and reached out for one of its handled…only for another hand to grab the second handle. Rainbow looked and saw the girl known as Trixie Lulamoon grabbing the guitar at the same time she was. The two girls glared at each other as they started playing tug-a-war with the instrument. "Hands off Trixie!" Rainbow warned.

"I touched it first Rainbow Dash!" Trixie yelled back as she pulled on the guitar.

"Sounds to me like this is makin for a nice friendly competition." Applejack said as she thought the best solution for this was to compete for the guitar.

"All right!" Rainbow agreed with a pumped up first before looking back at Trixie. "Let's see who plays best!"

"A shred off?" Trixie challenged as she looked into Rainbows eyes.

"Shred on!" Rainbow said as she accepted the challenged.

Vinyl came up to them to collect the guitar so she could hand it to the winner as Pinkie handed Rainbow Dash a light blue electric guitar with Trixie grabbing an orange triangular guitar.

Rainbow went first as she caught to shredding creating an epic sound with the sound waves blowing her hair back.

Trixies was quick to respond as and showed off some amazing guitar skills of her own.

The two quickly got heated as they remained in a shred struggle, working hard to try and get one up on the other. Rainbow Dash then quickly took the lead, but then Trixie started to overpower Rainbow Dash with her sound waves pushing the rainbow haired girl back.

But Rainbow refused to give in. Suddenly electricity surged through Rainbow Dash. Her eyes glowed as the guitar she was wielding changed to a dark electric blue with the handle turning red with lightning bolt patterns.

Pony ears appeared on Rainbows head as she started to float up into the air. Finally, blue Pegasus wings formed on Rainbows back and her air extended into a long ponytail, completing her magical transformation.

Rainbow Dash then finished off her solo by landing on the ground and making one last shred that creating a sonic boom in the color of a rainbow.

When it was over and the smoke cleared, Rainbow Dash was easily the winner and all her friends began clapping and cheering for her. Meanwhile Trixie had crashed into a drum set.

Rainbow then stood up and looked over her ponied-up body. "Check me out!" Rainbow bragged as Vinyl walked up to Rainbow with the guitar her and Trixie fought over.

Rainbow was about to take it…but hesitated as she looked at the guitar she beat Trixie with. Rainbow saw her reflection across the guitars now sparkling surface and decided. "Eh, she can have it." Rainbow said as she lifted up the guitar in her hands. "Turns out this is the one that really speaks to me."

Vinyl simply shrugged and handed the guitar to Trixie who was now sporting a victorious grin. "The Great and Powerful Trixie always win!" Trixie yelled as she lifted the guitar into the air.

"I doubt it." Rainbow said in a smug tone as she and her friends walked past Trixie. Rainbow went up to the counter Vinyl was behind once again and happily paid for the electric before she and her friends left.

Trixie was a brow and looked at the back of the red guitar only her for draw to drop at what she saw. "12,000 dollars!?" Trixie shouted in shock before looking at the exit to the store and pointing. "YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS RAINBOW DASH!"

Pinkie's head then popped up from the side of the exit. "No silly, if you want it, you have to pay for it!" The pink girl told the magician before looking at the audience and winking.


I always enjoy writing for Rainbow Dash. She's a fun character to write. Anyway, remember to Fav, Follow, and leave a review and stay tuned for...

"Pinkie Pride"
