[DE - 2] AiE : Tempest

Continued from AiE : Dynamic Entry
-------------------

>You just woke up from glorious dreamless sleep.
>You felt much more relaxed.
>Still sore, but relaxed.
>
>The lights in your room were still dim, but you didn't feel like sleeping.
>You lay there, contemplating how your life was going to go from here.
>You're broke.
>You're homeless.
>And, as far as you know, you have no way of getting back home.
>Fuck.
>
>That last one hurt.
>
>You'll never see your family again.
>Or your friends.
>Or anything from that world.
>Depressing shit.
>
>You begin to recall what you were doing before you woke up falling into Equestria.

-------------------

>You had just left a friend's party.
>His 21st birthday party, actually.
>The party had just started dying down, so you figured you'd head home.
>Good party, great friends, but you'd been there since five.
>It was easily two in the morning now.
>Yeah, party was fun n' all, but hey.  You'd rather sleep in your own bed, by yourself
>Instead of waking up next to someone you may or may not know; having done who knows what.
>
>Being the responsible fuck you are, you decided to avoid drinking.
>If the police showed up, or someone needed to go somewhere but was too drunk to do it, you'd be the go to guy.
>Had to be somebody, you just drew the shorter straw.
>Bah, not really huge on drinking anyway.
>
>You made your way home, without incident.
>The roads were pretty clear; being so late at night.
>Your apartment was just as you left it
>Bed was a disaster zone
>Floor was still your closet
>Computer humming away in the corner
>Fridge was stocked up on quick n' easy meals, cokes, a couple beers
>...
>Life was good.
>
>You sat down in front of your computer once you'd put your keys away.
>Too early for this shit
>Huh.  /Fucks_to_Give is empty.
>How about that.
>
>You'd checked facebook and twitter; not that you were expecting anything.
>And you were right; same old drama, same shit.
>Checked your bank account, just to make sure you didn't do any spending you didn't know about.
>You never know at 21st birthday parties.
>All good.

-------------------

>And so the world carried on.
>
>You came back to now.
>Ponyville
>The hospital.
>The crash.
>
>Nothing else mattered now.
>With no way to connect to back home, there was nothing that could be done.
>You've been given a clean slate!
>At the cost of knowing you will never see anyone you knew again.
>those feels.
>
>You'll never see another human female again.
>
>
>Shit.
>Dying alone?
>Never crossed your mind before.
>How long before you go insane now?
>Shit.
>
>
>Nope.
>Nope nope nope nope.
>Not even gonna think about ponies like that.
>Its not right.
>You're not the same god damn species.
>Not even close!
>
>Hope being a monk wasn't as bad as you were thinking it was.
>Not for religion, but for morals.
>You shouldn't even think about fucking ponies.
>
>Its wrong.
>
>For now, your morals are strong.
>We'll just have to hope they stay that way.

>Time to think about something else while you wait on everyone else to wake up.
>Fuck.
>Ponies.  Horses.  They don't eat meat.
>
>Now, we have a serious problem.
>One way or another, they're going to find out you eat meat.
>Way to stay positive, Anon!
>Will they shun you?
>Will they accept you?
>You can only go so long without protein.
>Maybe you could find an alternative to meat!
>Beans maybe?  They have protein!
>Ooh, ooh!  And rice!
>Looks like you're going to have to get used to quite a few things.
>
>You'll never have pepperoni pizza again.
>God.
>Fucking.
>Dammit.

-------------------

>You have a bigger still concern.
>You have no home.
>Nothing.  Nada.  Zilch.
>Your stay at the hospital is temporary.
>What are you going to do for a house?
>Shelter even?
>Nobody here knows you
>You're an alien to them.
>There is always hobokin
>
>Yeah, fuck that.
>
>As bad as it sounds though, it looks like your only option.
>
>New priority: get a job.
>You can't rely on charity of people you don't know.
>You'll have to rough it for a while.
>Maybe a long while.
>
>Dammit.
>
>Maybe you could whore yourself out?
>Fuck you brain.  Fuck you.
>
>And it was cold earlier.
>Probably autumn.
>Shit.
>Only gonna get colder.
>Now time is against you.
>Peachy.
>Just fucking peachy.

-------------------

>You must've really been into pitying yourself, because you didn't hear nurse Red Heart come in.
>"Anon?  Anooooon.  Hellooooo" she said, as she waved her hoof at you.
>"Anon, you in there?"
>She walked over and nudged you in the shoulder.
DAFUQ WAS THAT.
>You snap back into reality.
>Wonderful fucking reality.
"Oh!  Sorry, I was just thinking" you said.
>"Must've been something interesting.  How long have you been up?  I told you you need your rest!"
>Just how long have you been up?
>There aren't any clocks in here.
"I...  I don't know.  Couldn't sleep.  Bad dreams." you answer.
>"I'll bet.  A crash like that will probably haunt you for a while." she said.
>Yeah.  Thanks.
>"Speaking of crashes, if you're up to it, Rainbow would like to see you."
>The mention of Rainbow catches your full and undivided attention.
>You barely know her, but already you owe her your life and a half.
"Absolutely!" you said.
>"Well, ok then.  I'll let you two catch up and I'll send up some breakfast." she said, and headed out the door.

-------------------

>With that, Rainbow was wheeled into your room by another nurse.
>The nurse left you two to each other.
>"How you holdin' up, Anon?" she asked
>Fucked.  Fucked up the ass.
"Pretty good" you lied.
"Yourself?"
>"You kidding?  A crash can't stop the Dash!"
>Tough little thing to the end huh.
"How long you here for?  Nurse Red Heart has never seen a human before, so I'm her indefinitely."
>"I bruised one of my wings, and sprained an ankle on the way to the hospital, but other than that, I'm fine."
>"Heck, I'll probably be outta here in a couple days, tops!"
>Great.
>Just great.
>"Hey Anon, how you gonna get back to wherever your from?" she asks
>
>Fucking mind-reading pony.
>
>
"I... I don't think I can get back home.  I don't even know how I got here." you reply, obvious lack of hope in your voice.
>At this point, you consider yourself a permanent resident of Equestria.
>Not much you can do to change it either.
>"Oh..." she says, empathy evident in her voice.
>She seems to think about this for a bit.
>"Well, where are you gonna stay?" she asks.
>
>Mind-fucking-reading.
>You swear.  Fucking-mind-reading.
>
>After considering actually answering for a while, you finally respond
"I don't know Rainbow.  I guess I'll just rough it for a while."

-------------------

>This doesn't sit well with her.
>You can see it.
>She shifts in her wheelchair after hearing your answer.
>"Well, I'd offer you to stay with me, at least until you got back on your feet." She says.
>Miracle!  Best damn pony.  Ever.
>"But-"
>Dammit.
>"My house is in the clouds.  So unless you can actually walk on clouds, I don't think its such a good idea."
>Interesting place for a house.
>But she is a Pegasus.
>Eh, kinda makes sense.
>
"Well, I appreciate the thought Rainbow, but even if I could walk on clouds, I don't think it'd be right."
>"What?  Well why not?"
"Well, I barely know you.  You've already saved my life;  I'm an alien to you, so that probably wouldn't go over so well with other ponies; And, I have no way to pay you back as it is!"
>She seems to mull your answer over in her head for about three seconds.
>"Listen, Anon, what I did for you, I'd do for anypony.  Even if I knew it was you, I'd do it again.  Sure I don't know you as well as one of my friends, and you're an alien.  But, so far, you're a pretty awesome alien.  I think getting to know you would be pretty awesome."
>
>Those feels.
>Fucking cyan pony.
>Those god damn feels.
>
"I appreciate that Rainbow; I really, really do; And I'd like to count you as my friend, but I still can't walk on clouds." You say, eager to get out of this.
>Not that Rainbow's offer isn't appealing, but you still don't feel quite right mooching off of anyone that much.

-------------------

>You can almost see the gears in her head going full power now.
>She really wants to help.
>"You know, I think I might actually have a solution to that too." She says slyly.
>A solution.
>To not being able to walk on clouds.
>dafuq
>Your brain tried tried and tried to process that.
>But it just hurt to think about.
>
>"Tell ya what, you worry about getting out of here and getting all fixed up; and I'll see what I can do to help out your housing situation." she says.
"Bu--"
>"Ah ah, no buts!  Admit it, you need my help.  Like it or not!"
>She's got you there.
>Dammit.
>"Thats what I thought.  Now, I've got to get back to my room and let the nurses do what they need to before they don't give me an option.  I'll talk to you later, ok Anon?"
>Welp.
"I-- but--.........Ok Rainbow.  I'll see you later." You answer, defeated.

-------------------

>Now wait just a god damn minute.
>Had this been Earth, this would've easily been the equivalent of someone tackling you out of the way of a speeding car.
>You wouldn't even think twice about staying with another human.
>So why are you considering staying with an alien pony?
>
>On Earth, you had a home and could support yourself.
>
>
>Had this been Earth, it is equally likely that no one would've tried to save your life.
>
>"I hope you're hungry, Anon" said Nurse Red Heart as she entered your room once more.
>"I've got a few things that should take care of your hunger."
>She had two trays, one had a bowl of what looked to be jell-o on it, the other had orange juice, biscuits, bagels, toast, and even some pancakes.
>The smells from the second tray alone were enough to stop your train of though entirely.
>You hadn't noticed how hungry you'd been.
"That smells delicious!" you said excitedly.
>"Glad you think so.  But first, we need to see if you can handle something a bit more simple."
>With that, she set the second tray full of delectable cravings on a stand on the other side of your room.

-------------------

>She moved the first tray, with the jell-o substance on it, over to you.
>"As soon as you finish this, you can start on the second tray."
>With that, you politely tore into the green semi-transparent food.
>It tasted kind of like you'd expect.
>Almost exactly like lime flavored jell-o.
>And so, it was gone in a matter of minutes.
>Why did ponies have silverware?
>Maybe its specifically a unicorn thing.
>Eh.  Fuck it.
>"Oh, I guess you are hungry then."
>With that, she hands over the second tray to you.
>"Well, I've got some rounds to finish.  I'll check up on you after that though.  Enjoy your breakfast!"
>With that, she left you to your food.
>
>As soon as the first piece of toast entered your mouth, you regretted eating it so fast.
>You regretted not savoring it.
>Good thing there was more.
>
>You had an intense urge to eat everything on that tray as fast as humanly possible.
>And an equally strong urge to savor it as slowly as possible.
>
>Ponies sure know how to cook.

-------------------

>Your stomach was full
>You were resting peacefully in your makeshift hospital bed.
>
>Time for thinks!
>
>Dammit.
>
>What did Rainbow mean by a solution?
>Why was she so eager to help you?
>If she was a human, you'd be suspicious of her intentions, hands down.
>
>But she's not a human.
>And this, apparently, isn't Earth.
>
>You still feel awkward about her wanting to help so badly.
>Its nice and all, but...
>Why?
>
>Is it because you're an alien, and you'd be a 'trophy friend' so to speak?
>Does she feel like she owes you something and isn't telling you?
>Is she secretly trying to get something from you?
>Its not like you have much now, anyway.
>
>So many questions.
>So few answers.
>
>You've been in this hospital, isolated from the rest of Ponyville and its inhabitants, for a few dasy now.
>How would the other ponies react?
>The unknown answer to that question worried you.

-------------------

>You've met a handful of ponies already
>Rainbow Dash
>Nurse Red Heart
>And a few members of the hospital staff, though they didn't stay and chat much.
>
>And Fluttershy.
>Wonder if she'll try and chat it up with you.
>You probably wouldn't recognize her if she walked into your hospital room right now anyway.
>
>As if on cue, your room door opens.
>In comes none other than, Rainbow Dash.
>She's still in her wheelchair, but it looks like the nurses have removed a few bandages from her.
>And she's got the biggest grin you've seen yet.
>
"Oh hey, whats up Rainbow?" you said, as she approached the side of your bed.
>"Well, I was thinking about what you said earlier, about not being able to walk on clouds."
>Ohboyherewego.jpg
>"And I remembered my friend Twilight knows a spell that let some of my friends walk on clouds."
>"She said it was pretty simple, and it lasts for a while!"
>Allofmywat
>
>Well, there goes your chance of getting out of mooching.
>Rainbow doesn't seem like the kind of pers-- ... pony, that'll take no for an answer.
>
"Thats... great news Rainbow, but" you start to say
>As soon as you said 'but,' you may as well have killed her mother.
>Those eyes.
>God dammit.

-------------------

>Must resist.
>MUST.
>RESIST.
>
>those fucking eyes.
>
>Fucking hell.
>
"... I don't know how long I'll be in the hospital." you finish.
>She perks right back up
>"No worries Anon!  I'll tell Nurse Red Heart, and she'll let me know when you can leave."
>"This'll be so AWESOME!"
>
>"I'm gonna have a roomie!"
>
>She was acting like it was the best thing that has ever happened to her.
>Ohwhatyoudid.
>
>"Well, I'm gonna go get a hold of Twilight, see when she's not busy."
>"In the meantime, I've got to do some sort of physical tests to make sure my wings are good to go."
>"I know they want to be sure and all, but jeeze.  Anyway, I gotta go before the nurses find out I'm missing.  See ya later!"
>And with that, she left.

-------------------

>About a week has passed since you and Rainbow had spoken last.
>The nurses did in fact discover Rainbow had left on her own.
>No, they weren't too happy about it.
>
>You've got to be close to done with your recovery by now.
>You're practically helping the hospital staff.
>Put things away, gather notes, gather supplies.
>Back room stuff.
>
>Understandable.
>No need to cause a panic or anything.
>And it felt good to be useful for a change.
>The nurse you were helping would always check up on you though.
>Each time you went back to your room, you basically received a physical.
>
>You'd met most of the hospital staff this way.
>Pretty nice group of ponies.
>All but a few were unicorns though.
>Magic would seem to have its bonuses in the medical field.
>
>The first couple of days after Rainbow had been discharged, you felt pretty lonely.
>Hell, the only pony willing to make conversation with you was Nurse Red Heart.
>Being the head nurse had its own set of privileges, you discovered.
>She thought you needed some interaction other than herself.
>And she noticed how cabin fever was starting to take its hold on you.
>
>Naturally, when you were offered the chance to help out, you jumped on it.
>They made you take it easy though.
>No heavy lifting
>No dealing with other patients
>Still isolated, but you met some more friendly faces.

-------------------

>And some, not so friendly faces.
>Well, not everyon-- everypony is going to like you.
>It happens.
>
>Rainbow had tried to come back and visit you, but Nurse Red Heart refused her each time.
>Something about no visitors, no exceptions.
>Well shit.
>On the brighter side though, Nurse Red Heart was growing more and more convinced you were fully recovered.
>You weren't sore, and passed all the physical tests she gave you.
>
>"Well, I think we're going to discharge you today Anon." she said.
>It's about damn time.
"Thats great news!" you responded.
>"Yes well, there is just one order of business that needs to be taken care of before that happens."
"Whats that?"
>"Rainbow Dash has requested to be notified upon your discharge.  Now, the decision isn't hers to make, it's yours."
>
>
>Are you ready to live with a pony?
>On a cloud?

-------------------

>You hesitate.
>But only for a moment.
>
>Fuck yeah.
>
"Absolutely!  If its alright with you, I'd like her to be here when I'm discharged.  If she isn't, I would have no idea where to go."
>She doesn't seem especially thrilled with your answer, but accepts it without challenge.
>"Alright then, I'll get word sent to her now."
>"I hope you know what you're getting into, Anon." she said as she left your room.
>
>Being in a state of (what was presumed to be) full recovery, you took to wandering around your room.
>After a couple of minutes of wandering and thinking about nothing in particular, you sit yourself down on your bed.
>
>And, being excited about getting out of this confining hospital, your mind resumes wandering for you.
>Whats it like to live on a cloud?
>How will you commute to other places when the need arrives?
>How will you get to the clouds in the first place?
>How big is Ponyville?
>What will you do for money?
>Can you get away with eating meat?
>
>Enter, Rainbow Dash.

-------------------

>"Whats up Anon!?" she asks excitedly
>Nothing.
>Nothing has been up.
>Then why are you so excited to tell her that?
"Not much, you?"
>"Oh you know, a little of this, a little of that."
>"I've been telling my friends about you, and they're super excited to meet you!"
>Ohshit.
"Well now, lets take this one step at a time, Ok Rainbow?"
"I haven't even made it out of the hospital yet."
>"Ok, fine.  Baby steps."
>Phew.
>Making friends is cool n' all
>But you don't know how many friends she's talking.
>And how fast you'd be meeting them.
>
>"But there's at least one friend you're meeting today, and not much you can do about it."
>
>Ok, ok.  Baby steps.
>One at a time.
>
"And just who might that be?"
>"Twilight, duh.  Unless you've gained the ability to walk on clouds while I've been gone."
"Uh, no, at least I don't think I ha--"
>"Great!  Lets go!"
>By this time she has maneuvered herself around you, and is using her head to push you towards the door.
>Damn she's excited.

-------------------

>Nurse Red Heart gave you one final exam before Rainbow snuck you away, and gave you the green light.
>"Well, good luck Anon.  And, no offense, but I hope I don't have to see you again too soon." she said with a smile.
>You almost said "I'll see you soon," but you caught yourself.
"Thanks again for taking care of me, Nurse Red Heart."
>"Anytime dear.  Now, you'd better get going before Rainbow over there gives you another injury."
>You glance over at Rainbow
>She heard that.
>She wasn't happy about it, but she kept her mouth shut.
>
>With that, you and Rainbow head towards the hospital lobby.
>Those doors.
>Last chance to chicken out.
>
>Well, maybe I should just--
>Ah, fuck it.
>
>You follow Rainbow out into the blinding sunlight.
>After your eyes adjust to the new light source, you re-focus on Rainbow.
>She's up flying around, doing circles waiting on you to catch up.
"Slow down Rainbow, no need to rush."
>At that she descends back down to your altitude.
>
>She's almost pulling you along
>But you wanted to look around.
>It must've been a workday or something, because there weren't many ponies out.
>The ones that were gave you mixed looks.
>
>You almost asked Rainbow why everypony was looking at you, then you remembered.
>Alien.  Right.

-------------------

>The buildings here weren't too dissimilar from that of a small village back on Earth.
>Though a few did strike up your curiosity.
>
>There was one that looked extremely similar to a carousel.
>One was a little twisted and brightly colored.
>Another one was a larger dome building, but it was further out than you could see.
>Off in the distance, you could see a fenced off orchard of trees.
>
>So much to see
>So little time
>
>Dash was intent on getting to Twilight's house as quickly as possible.
>
>
>After another 10 minutes or so of walking, Rainbow has led you to a rather large tree.
>This tree was like a couple others you had seen
>It was being used as a home
>Hollowed out
>Windows
>Doors
>Lights
>
>But it was still... alive?
>The tree wasn't dead.
>Didn't seem like an easy task to accomplish.
>
>Oh wait.
>Magic.
>
>
>But this tree house was a bit different.
>It seemed larger than the others
>And it had a sign with an open book painted on it, hanging out front.
>
>A library?
>Does this Twilight live in a library?

-------------------

>Dash knocks impatiently on the door.
>
>Not but a few seconds later, the door is opened by a small...
>purple and green...
>...lizard?
>
>"Oh hey Rainbow, come on in!" the little lizard said.
>Rainbow motioned for you to follow her in, so you did.
>"Who's your friend, Rainbow?"
>"Spike, meet Anon; Anon, this is Spike" she said.
>You both look at each other.
>You both seem to have the exact same thought at the same time.
"You're not a pony." you both say.
>Well no shit.
>
>Upon hearing that, Rainbow busts out laughing.
>"Hahaha, you shoulda seen the look on your guys' faces!  Oh man, it was priceless!" She said through fits of laughter.
>Ignoring her laughter, you attempt to carry on the conversation you started with Spike.
"No, I'm not a pony.  I'm a human."
>"Human, huh?  Never heard of 'em." Spike responded.
"Yeah, so I've heard.  Anyway, no offense, but I've never seen anyone like you before.  If you don't mind my asking, -what- are you?" you inquire.
>"Uuuuuhhh, I'm a dragon?" he answered.
>Ya know, you'd figure dragons to be a lot bigger.
>
>About the time you were going to respond, another voice interjects.
>"Actually, he's a baby dragon, to be more precise.  I've known him since he was an egg!"
>"TWILIGHT!" spike groaned.
>"Do you have to bring that up, every time someone asks about me?" spike asked her.
>"I'm just explaining to him what you are.  Its obvious he's never seen a dragon before.  From what Rainbow has told me, he's never met a pony before either!" she said.
>The purple unicorn shifted her attention to you
>"Oh!  Where are my manners!  I'm Twilight Sparkle, resident librarian.  And you must be Anon, right?"
"Yes, I'm Anon.  Nice to meet you Ms. Sparkle." you said, trying to make a good impression.
>"Please, call me Twilight!  All of my friends do; and any friend of Rainbow's is a friend of mine!"
>
>Just how popular is Rainbow Dash?

-------------------

>"At any rate, welcome to my home!" she said, after closing the door behind you.
"You live in a library?" you asked.
>"Yup, I live on the top floor to be specific.  Princess Celestia let me live here to continue my studies in the company of my friends."
>Wow.  So she knows a princess of some sort.
>Must be some good friends to skip out on presumably living in a castle.
>
>"Hey, Twilight, I'd love to stay and chat, but I've got a few things to take care of back home so Anon can crash there for a while." Rainbow said
>"Oh!  Of course!  How silly of me!  Spike, would you get me the--"
>"Directory of Spells, volume 1.  Already got it." He interrupted.
>"And thats why you're my number one assistant!  Ok, lets see here." she said as she used magic to open the book and began scanning its contents.
>
>She seemed to find what she was looking for, and studied a passage for a moment.
>"Ok, Anon, I need you to just relax, and let me handle this, ok?" she said as her horn began to glow.
>Ok, easy enough.
>
>A couple of seconds later, a bright purple light emitted from Twilight's horn
>Then, just as quickly as it appeared, it was over.
>
>Huh.  You didn't feel a thing.
>
"Was that it?" you asked
>"Yup, pretty simple huh?" She asked.
>"Rainbow, would you be so kind as to get a small cloud, so we can make sure the spell took effect?"
>"Sure thing, be right back." said Rainbow after opening the door.
>She was gone, maybe for three seconds.
>When she came back, she was riding a small cloud, and steering it with her flight.
>She hopped off the cloud in front of the door.
>"Anon, would you mind trying to stand on the cloud please?" Twilight asked you.
"Sure, no problem." you said as you approached the cloud.
>
>You raised your leg to put your foot on the cloud, fully expecting it to dissipate under you.
>Until you actually stepped on the cloud.
>
>All of your wut.
>Then the cloud slipped out from under you.
>It was almost like stepping on a skateboard by accident.
>Upon landing on your ass, Rainbow started having issues fighting off a giggle fit.
>And you're going to live with this pony for a couple of weeks.
>
>Dammit.

-------------------

>"Perfect!  It works!" Twilight exclaimed.
"What do you mean by 'it works'?" you asked; were you just experimented on?
>"Well, some creatures have an innate immunity to magic, like older dragons.  It's a good thing you don't seem to be immune to magic!"
>"It'll make this much easier!"
"Ok, well how long with this spell last?"
>"On a normal pony, it tends to last about five days.  Check back in three days, and we'll see how you're doing."
>"We'll be able to tell how fast the spell is wearing off, based on how hard it is for you to go through a cloud.  I'll be able to calculate an accurate time frame from that."
>Seems legit.
>
>Magic - there's science in this shit.
>
>"Well, I've got to get back to my studies, so Rainbow, unless you need anything else, I'll see you later?" Twilight asked
>"Sure thing Twilight!  Thanks for helping out!" she said.
>With that, Twilight and Spike returned to the library.

-------------------

>Guess where you're going next.
>
>
>"Alright, lets get to my place!" Dash says as she prepares to take off.
"But Rainbow, how do I get there?  I can't fly."
>Rainbow promptly sat down before she left the ground.
>She pondered this with serious thought for a minute or two.
>
>One comedic 'light bulb' scene later, her smile returns
>
>"Doy.  Hop on big guy!" She says after standing up and spreading her wings.
>
"Uhh, don't you think I'm a bit big for you?  I carried you before, remember?"
>"You tryin to say I can't lift ya?"
>
>Damn.
>
>
>After a bit of adjusting, you were atop Rainbow, right in front of her wing joints.
>Almost laying on her neck and head.
>It felt a bit awkward, but Rainbow seemed comfortable with it.
>
>"Alright Anon, hold on to my neck.  Last thing I need is to have to catch you again."
>
>You wrap your arms around her neck firmly.
>With that, she takes off towards a large grouping of clouds that looked to be a couple of miles from ponyville.

-------------------

>DEAR GOD THE GROUND IS LEAVING ME.
>
>waitaminute
>
>Riding a pegasus.
>
>A talking pegasus.
>
>In a land of ponies, unicorns, other pegasi, dragons, and such things as these.
>
>Eh.  Enjoy the madness.
>
>You throw your arms in the air and enjoy yourself.
>Might as well.
>Rainbow Dash noticed you let go with your arms, and tightened your grip with you legs as best you could.
>
>She turned her head to look at what you were doing.
>"So you like to go fast, huh?" she asked.
>
>You didn't noticed.  Too busy enjoying yourself.
>
>She took that as a yes.
>
>She stopped heading towards the group of clouds, and started a rapid ascent.
>This caught your attention.
>Immediately you clamped your arms right the fuck back down, and your legs became an iron grip.
>Fortunately, Rainbow didn't seem phased by your grip of terror and death.
>
>After what seemed like an eternity, she stopped accelerating upwards, and began a nosedive.
>Ohshitson
>
>You were going faster.
>And faster.
>And faster.
>Fuck thats fast.

-------------------

>You feel the air going across your skin so fast, you had to check a couple of times to make sure you weren't burned.
>
>You weren't.
>Yet.
>
>What was she trying to do?
>
>It was becoming increasingly difficult to see.
>Or keep your eyes open.
>You heard something that sounded like an explosion.
>You didn't know what it was, but Rainbow had just performed a sonic rainboom.
>After the explosion, you realized that the two of you were heading for the original cluster of clouds extremely fast.
>
>And Rainbow wasn't slowing down.
>You wanted to scream for her to slow down, but the air was passing by too fast.
>Even if you could manage to say something, nobo-- nopony could hear it.
>You could barely hear yourself think over the friction in the air.
>
>The friction.
>You could swear you smelled smoke.
>
>She wasn't slowing down, despite what you were sure was an impending cloud splat.
>
>You're approaching critical cloud!
>OHSHITHEREITCOMES
>You shut your eyes as you brace for impact.
>Fully expecting not to open them again.
>
>It happened in what you could only describe as slow-motion.
>There was a dramatic decrease in speed.
>A very fluid-like roll.
>A sudden chill on your skin.
>Your head rattled around for a second before you finally got the nerve to open your eyes.

-------------------

>Upon opening your eyes, the first thing you see, is Rainbow Dash.
>She's laying on her back, looking up, a huge grin on her face.
>She looked over at you and said, "Check it out!  Whatcha think?"
>You looked to where she had gestured, and there was a rainbow.
>The rainbow seemed to emanate from a rainbow explosion of some sort, and stopped a few feet above where you and Dash were laying.
>
>thefuckjusthappened.gif
>
>"That, was fun.  I've never done a sonic rainboom while carrying something before." she said.
>Sonic Rainboom.
>
>You just rode a Pegasus, through the sound barrier, and created a rainbow.
>You immediately look down to check if everything was where it should be.
>
>Shattered phone?
>Check.
>Knife?
>Check.
>Clothing still on one piece?
>So far so good.
>
>
>You look back at Rainbow and say
"Yeah.  That was pretty awesome."
>You thought for sure that with being able to walk on clouds, it would be just as easy to splat on clouds.
>
>Guess not.
>
>At most, you and Dash managed to make a little dent in the cloud.
>Even that was already puffing back out to its original shape.
>
>Justacceptit.
