“One more level”
“Just one more level”
A cyan filly with a rainbow mane thought to herself as she played her newly brought video game in her poster covered of The Wonder Bolts room the night before that big, important and if you a low grade you’ll be screwed exam on Equestrian history. She secretly knows that she should be studying but that isn’t very amusing. Blasting off zombie pony heads is the way to go, right?
“Rainbow, are you doing your schoolwork?” her father called from downstairs.
“Yes”, lied Rainbow
“I can borrow Fluttershy’s notes and study on the bus tomorrow” Rainbow Dash making an consideration. “I mean how hard can that exam be?”
Her father sighed on the living room couch, part of him knew that his daughter is being untruthful and he wanted to step in. However that almost always leads to an unnecessary battle ending it with Rainbow in tears. He doesn’t have physical the power to deal with a crying filly tonight, thank you doubled work shifts. While the other half of him wanted her to see the consequences for not buckling down and study. But he still didn’t want her to fail, sometimes it’s tough being a single dad.
The Next Day
7:43 am
“RAINBOW”
“RAINBOW, WAKE UP OR YOUR GOING TO MISS THE BUS” her father screamed from the kitchen. Rainbow over slept from nearly staying up the whole night Zombie Kill 4502, the “one” more level was a lie.
“Oh snap, I better rushed if I get Fluttershy’s notes.” She thought as looked at The Wonder Bolts alarm clock. “The bus will be here in about 20 minutes”
She dashed to the shower, for the quickest shower she ever had. After that it was 7:49 am and she needed take the 15 minute flight . “Looks like I’m not getting a breakfast today, hope dad doesn’t freak.” Dash said to herself as she packed her saddlebag with pens, paper and her Game Colt with Zombie Kill 4502, the usual school gear a student needs. She rushed to the door of her cloud home. Before yelling bye to her dad drinking his coffee in the kitchen, prior to work as a weather pony.
“Rainbow, you need to-“
“Slam”
The door slammed hard as his daughter left in a hurry.
“Eat breakfast” with an angry sigh the navy stallion, “She’s going to have a hard day”
“You’re not going to make it”
“You’re not going to make it”
“I can’t make it”
Rainbow told herself as flew as fast her tiny wings carried her. She’s been at the halfway point to the bus stop but there is no way she could it get there in time. If she didn’t get the notes she will for sure get an “F” or maybe something worse.
“This is what you Rainbow deserve for being an idiot. I’m not gonna get to the bus stop and now use Fluttershy’s notes, your just stupid” Rainbow Dash coldly put herself down.
Flying a bit longer Rainbow spotted the stop... with the bus… just leaving. The filly couldn’t help but feel the rage growing inside her.
‘ '"Well, great. Now I'm gonna be tardy, and not only that, but I'll have a detention. How wonderful," she said facetiously.Rainbow has been warned on countless times not to be late from her teacher Mr. Trotter. The Pegasus filly groaned and continued flying to school.
“Miss. Dash, thank you for kindly joining us.” Mr. Trotter the 4th grade teacher replied as the out of breathe pony burst the in the classroom arriving 20 minutes late. “I’ll be seeing you after school”. Rainbow hung her head in shame as she took her seat in the very back next to Fluttershy.
“Like I was saying, there’s class trip to a Wonder Bolts at the end of this month. If interest there’s forms on the back table and the tickets are $40 each. If you have-“.
“Knock, knock”. Came from the classroom door.
Mr. Trotter let out a groan annoyed with last interruption and muttered something under his breath as he went to answer the door. He opened the door to Mrs. Perry the principal, they spoke for a bit before Mr. Trotter stepped out, closing the door behind them. Moments after Mr. Trotter returned to the class alongside with a gray coated with a blonde mane filly.
“Everyone, this is Ditzy Doo, she came all the way from Fillydelphia. So please make her feel welcome, Ditzy you take your seat by Rainbow, she’s the with the rainbow mane. “Well duh, captain obvious” Rainbow rolling her eyes.
Ditzy made her to seat that’s when Rainbow notice an odd detail about the newest classmate. Something felt off about her, what it is? Rainbow trying to be causal to towards the matter glared around the room, slowly returning her gaze to Ditzy’s green eyes. Then the discovery went down hard and smacked her firmly, it’s her eyes.
“Holy crap, her eyeballs are point in different directions. Ones up and the other one is pointing down. It’s so messed up almost creepy. Was she born like that or is she doing it on purpose, whatever the reason is, it’s totally weird. Can she even see like that? Should I ask her about it… no I can't asked her about it haven’t even talked to her yet.” Rainbow thought to herself with confusion and curiosity.
“Umm… Rainbow w-what are you looking… if you don’t m-mind telling me” Fluttershy observing her BPFF (Best Pony Friend Forever) staring at Ditzy which is starting to get strange. Rainbow was in between Ditzy and Fluttershy, which explains why Flutters couldn’t see Ditzy’s eye condition.
Rainbow realized what she was doing and rapidly putting an end to it. Luckily Ditzy’s right eye up to the ceiling, so she couldn’t have seen paying attention to Rainbow’s gazes.
“Umm, I’ll tell you at recess, Flutters” Rainbow whispered to her BPFF. Not wanting to them to talk about Ditzy with her there.
“The test is going to be after recess and also the test is going to be 50% of your grade. So I hope your all prepared” Mr. Trotter announce to the class.
“I’m so screwed, Fluttershy better hoof over her notes or I might fail and be a loser weather pony”.
