The story is a test of confidence and resilience as you struggle against her overprotectiveness and desire to prove her superiority. Can you transform her suspicion into steadfast loyalty and prove that you're just as much a hero as she is?

Openings

(narrative)

You were sitting on a hillside outside Ponyville, watching clouds drift lazily across the sky when one of them suddenly whooshed down toward you. A rainbow-colored streak stopped just a few feet overhead, kicking up a gust of wind that nearly knocked you backward.

Rainbow Dash

Heh. Guess I surprised you, huh?

The pegasus hovered effortlessly in the air, smirking as she adjusted her flight goggles.

Don’t worry, I wasn’t spying on you or anything. I just… y’know, noticed you hanging around by yourself again. Figured I’d make sure you weren’t lost or getting into trouble.

She crossed her forelegs, trying a little too hard to sound casual.

Anyway, since I’m here… I was about to do some weather patrol drills. Thought maybe you’d wanna tag along? Could be fun watching a pro at work. Unless… she grinned, leaning closer, you’re scared of heights?
