Chapter 7: A Surprising Picnic

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Within a few minutes, the mountains of Holy Summit came into view. Sonic breathed a sigh of relief as the mountains came into view. It seemed like the figure was going towards the mountains, and Sonic was glad that the flight was almost over.

One of the mountaintops had lights glowing on the top. There seemed to be another figure on top of the mountain. Sonic prepared himself for a fight, waiting for the flying figure to put him down. When the figure holding Sonic was at the mountaintop, instead of dropping him, the figure landed and let go of Sonic's arms. The lights grew brighter and revealed Rainbow Dash sitting by a picnic blanket. The other figure was revealed to be Fluttershy.

Rainbow Dash was wearing a navy blue dress that had a short skirt and short sleeves. Her hair had been done up and seemed to glow by itself. Sonic was left speechless and could only stare at the girl before him.

"Sonic, I'm sorry with the means used to get you here, but I wanted this to be special." Rainbow Dash said.

Sonic snapped out of his trance and said, "All you had to do was invite me, you didn't need to have Fluttershy snatch me." Fluttershy seemed to grow smaller after hearing that comment.

Rainbow Dash blushed slightly and said, "I didn't want my thank you to seem normal, I wanted to mix things up."

"Well, there's nothing wrong with trying to thank me, but why didn't you just show up at Pinkie's party?"

"Like I said, I wanted this to be different." Rainbow Dash pulled Sonic over to the picnic blanket and the two sat down. Rainbow Dash had butterflies in her stomach, but the hero didn't even know what the rainbow haired girl was trying ot do. The moon came out from behind the clouds, bathing the pair in light.

"You missed a pretty good party." Sonic said, trying to make conversation.

Rainbow Dash sighed. "I don't want to talk about the party let's just talk about something else."

Sonic shrugged. "Just trying to make conversation."

"So, about how you saved me earlier."

"What about it?"

"Why did you throw yourself into danger to save me?"

"First, I wasn't throwing myself into danger, just into more of it. Second, I did it because you're my friend, and I wasn't going to let any robot get in the way of that."

Rainbow Dash smiled at the words of her hero, but inside she frowned, feeling like she had been friend zoned. It was then that Fluttershy flew down with a basket in her hands. Rainbow Dash quickly grabbed the basket and dismissed the thought. She opened it and the smell made Sonic's mouth water.

"Do I smell chili dogs?" Sonic asked with excitement.

"What else would I make for you to eat?" Rainbow Dash said with a smile. Fluttershy glared at her slightly, for she was truly the one who had prepared the food. Rainbow Dash just ignored her friend's stare and pulled out a chili dog for Sonic. He greedily snatched the food and began to chow down. Unlike Twilight, Rainbow Dash never really cared about how he was a messy eater.

Rainbow Dash pulled out a salad, for she was a vegetarian, as were the other six girls in the group. She ate it quietly as she watched her hero chow down on the many chili dogs. It was a good thing that she had asked Fluttershy to make so many, because Sonic was quickly going through the supply.

Rainbow Dash finished her food a minute after Sonic made it through the chili dog supply. She looked over to where Fluttershy had been standing, and motioned for her to commence the next phase of the plan. Fluttershy flew down to the bottom of the mountain and grabbed a small stereo that they had hidden there. She flew back up with the stereo in hand and landed where she had been before.

Sonic hadn't noticed any of this, and was wiping his mouth with his gloved hand. He was only snapped out of his daze when music began playing. Rainbow Dash stood up and held out her hand, her cheeks slightly red. It had been a long day and Sonic was tired, but he figured he had enough energy left in him to do one more dance. He jumped up from his seated position and grabbed Rainbow Dash's hand, making her cheeks blush an even brighter red.

The song playing was a fast one, and the two speedsters were in their element. Their dancing wasn't anything spectacular, and they weren't even on the mountain half off the time. The music energized them enough to cause them to both fly and run around the place. Fluttershy couldn't help but smiile at the two's behavior.

When the song ended, the two came to a stop on top of the mountain. Rainbow Dash was panting, but Sonic looked as though he hadn't even broken a sweat.

"That was fun." Sonic said while doing some stretches.

"Yeah." Rainbow Dash said.

"You know, we could have done this at the party Pinkie threw. Why are we doing it here?"

Rainbow Dash took a deep breath and mentally prepared herself to tell him the truth. "I have a good reason for doing this here."

"Are you going to tell me what that reason is?"

"It's because after what you did for me, I began to..." Rainbow Dash began to say. Before she could finish her sentence, a dark figure flew straight at them and lifted Sonic into the air by his arms. Rainbow Dash could do nothing but stay still for a minute before snapping out of her surprise and following after the figure. Fluttershy took a little longer, but flew after the figure as well, at a slower rate.

At first, it was easy for Rainbow Dash to catch up, but the figure slowly began to go even faster than Rainbow Dash could. Before long, it became apparent that the figure would leave her behind.

"Don't worry about me!" Sonic shouted over the wind.

"You're in trouble, I have to help!" Rainbow Dash shouted back.

"I'll be fine, I always am!" Sonic shouted. Rainbow Dash couldn't help but agree. She began to slow down, putting faith in the blue hero. When Rainbow Dash landed on the ground, she realized that tears were streaming down her face. Fluttershy landed beside her and patted her on the back. They both looked up and watched as both the figure and Sonic flew off into the night.
