His Little Dashie: Childhood Saga
Chapter 6: The Talk
Previous Chapter Next ChapterHello again! Sorry for the wait,. I've been in Kentucky, so I've been really busy. I have time this week, since I don't have a sport until March, so I'll try to make another chapter this week.
Now about this chapter. It's shorter than the other ones, but it's a very important one. Why? Well lets just say it answers on of your big questions. Enjoy!
Rainbow Dash's life is going very nicely at this point. She loves her new room, of course, and she starts to feel more independence as time goes on, which she likes. Her dad's training is really putting her in amazing shape. She's mastered multiple techniques by now; like the kamehameha, the solar flare, and the meteor combination (which is her favorite melee combo) to name a few.
She's now teaching herself to develop attacks using the lightning from the clouds and how to form huge tornadoes. The mare is also developing a new technique. It surges ki into one of her fore hooves and as she drives the hoof forward to make a punch, the powerful force creates a shock wave of blue electricity and delivers a powerful blow to her target. She decided to name it after her idols and calls it the "Buccaneer Blaze". The funny thing is that she's managed to complete this training nine months since her eighth birthday. Her father is thrilled while her mother is somewhat nervous for her.
She also learned how to fly without her wings, but she still prefers to use them. Speaking of flight, her speed increased tremendously. Rainbow's just as fast as her father now. She enjoys soaring through the air in her spare time, since there isn't really anywhere to go to but the air.
The mare asked her dad about martial art tournaments or other teachers she could learn from, but her mother told her of all the possibilities of what could happen to her if she shows herself in public since she is a pegasus. Her father hasn't even shown her to his friends yet. He tells her that it will happen when she's ready and finished with her training. This motivates her to train even harder, which Goku is perfectly fine with, but Chichi does want to spend a little more time with her. However, at this period of time, that doesn't seem to be possible.
Rainbow's family life has been pretty strange for the past few months. The source of this is her mom. She's been acting very weird. It seems that the way she walks, sits, and eats has changed dramatically. It's more of what she eats instead of how she eats. Dash remembers one time when her mom asked her dad to get watermelon, ice cream, and pickles at two o'clock in the morning. Goku obeyed because even her temper is shorter, which Rainbow didn't find possible at first. There's also one other change that she found very noticeable, and that's her mothers size of her stomach. It's gotten a lot bigger.
Today, she's going to ask her dad about this. After dinner, and another outburst, Rainbow's mom goes to bed early, again. The mare finds her opportunity, so before her dad leaves the table, Rainbow quickly asks, "Hey dad, can I talk to you for a second?"
Goku turns his head to look at her before replying, "Sure, what is it?" He usually gets these sudden questions from his daughter. It's usually about what they're planning to do tomorrow for training, when they're going to meet his friends or what his friends are like. In other cases, he tells her stories of his childhood before she came along. She's been very interested with that and he practically told her everything; from Grandpa Gohan to the Red Ribbon Army to King Piccolo and even his son. Goku even told her about the dragon balls. However, he isn't really expecting the question she asks so soon.
"Why does it seem that mom has extreme anger issues, has back problems, has severe eating disorders and looks like she ate 20 cookie jars whole for two weeks at the same time?"
Goku widens his eyes at her in shock. After a while, he finally mutters, "It's that noticeable?"
"Well ya, how can't it be?"
Goku takes time before saying, "Well…she did say not to tell you since you wouldn't understand, but I don't really either, so-"
"Tell me!" Rainbow interrupts in desperation as she sits up from her chair.
"Ok, ok I'll tell you! Just bare with me though, ok?" Rainbow sits back down satisfied as she hears her dad speak. "Alright, where to begin… Well I should start the way your mother did." He then looks over to Rainbow and starts his explanation. "When a man and a women love each other…
When her dad finishes, Rainbow Dash sits there in confusion as she tries to take the new information all in. When she finally can, she responds, "So let me get this straight. A male puts this private part somewhere on the female's private part and he goes back and forth until he has this awesome feeling. Then, after that's done, the female has these weird things happen to her. Is that right?"
"Pretty much," Goku answers.
"Why would you want to do that?" Rainbow immediately replies.
"Apparently, that's where babies come from." Rainbow draws back in shock before Goku waves his arms and confesses, "Trust me, I have no idea how either. We'll just have to wait and see."
Rainbow can't believe what she just heard. "That's where babies come from?! That doesn't make any since, what does that me-" When reality kicks in, her jaw drops and she gasps. Goku reacts in confusion and concern.
"Rainbow, what's wrong?" Goku asks the stunned mare. After a few moments, the mare doesn't reply, but then she responds in a way that Goku doesn't expect. The pony grows a huge smile. Her pupils widen and they seem to sparkle in excitement. Her father now looks at her with even more confusion. When she finds the words she wants to say, Rainbow finally responds.
"Does this mean I'm going to be a big sister?"
Goku's jaw drops in astonishment as reality kicks into him, too. "I-I think so."
When her father says this, Rainbow Dash jumps in the air and squeals like a little school girl before she dashes over to her dad and gives him the biggest hug she could ever give. "yesyesyesyesyesyes! I've always wanted to be a sister. I can't believe it! Oh thankyouthankyouthankyouthan kyou!" The mare rambles in Goku's ear.
When she finishes, Goku hugs back and replies, "I know Dash, I know." As his daughter hugs him, Goku only thinks, "I'm just as excited as you are."
