Chapter 1: Your Normal Everyday Pony


Your Normal Everyday Pony

Meet Lightning Chaser, your normal everyday pegasus.

"Wow! Look at Rainbow Dash go!" exclaimed Lightning Chaser.

Lightning Chaser was doing his daily routine as a courier. Delivering mail to Fluttershy, Rarity (who in his opinion is so snotty!), Twilight Sparkle and other assortments of ponies. He was just about to finish delivering all the mail when he saw Rainbow Dash zipping across the sky. So, he stood and watched her for a bit. "I just don't understand how her wings move that fast! It's amazing really." Lightning Chaser said to Derpy Hooves.

He watch as she tried to imitate Rainbow Dash and crashed into a tree. Her eyes looking more derpy then ever. Then, up came Applebloom. "Oh hey Applebloom, I haven't seen you much recently." said Lightning Chaser. "Oh, well, I've been around. Still tryin' to get my cutie mark." said Applebloom. Lightning watched as Applebloom hung her head.

"Wait, you haven't got your cutie mark yet? But,but you are so talented, I don't even understand how you don't have one! exclaimed Lightning Chaser.Applebloom just stared at him for a moment then walked off, still hanging her head. "LOOK OUT BELOW!" yelled Rainbow Dash from above.

                                   BAM! She hit right in to Lightning Chaser, all you could see was a ton of dust. As they got up Rainbow Dash exclaimed "Sorry Lightnin'!" "Oh it's alright, I should have gotten out of your way." said Lightning Chaser."No, no,no, it was totally my fault, I was trying a new trick to impress the Wonderbolts with." said Rainbow Dash.

They both looked at each other, covered up to their wings in mud and dust.  "So you wanna come over to my house later and have a race?" said Rainbow Dash. "Umm, sure! But, I gotta finish this little job first." said Lightning Chaser. "Okay, see you later then!" exclaimed Rainbow Dash. Lightning Chaser had to do this one last job. It wasn't a normal job. Well, at least not the ones he was used to. He had to go to Zecora's house in the Everfree Forest. The Everfree Forest has always creeped him out and he is not sure why. "It's starting to get dark, I gotta get there quick!" exclaimed Lightning Chaser in his mind. Lightning Chaser slowly lifted off the ground. He hopped into the air and he flew across the sky. He wasn't going very fast and just barely managed to get there without almost colliding with the tree. He made it to Zecora's house in less then 30 minutes, but it was getting dark quickly. He gave her the mail and flew above the trees. He looked at the trees below from the sky, thinking about what he had to do after this. "Oh yes! Rainbow Dash wanted me to go over to her house after I was done with this." Lightning Chaser said to himself. He flew across the night sky and landed on Rainbow's cloud home and knocked on the door. She swung it open and said "Hey Lightning, come on in." Lightning stepped in Rainbow's house and asked, "So, when are we gonna race?" Rainbow Dash looked confused, then exclaimed "Oh yea! The race, I was plannin' on doing it from Sugarcube Corner to Rarity's Boutique. "Ummm, alright then, I'll just wait over here while you get ready Dash.", said Lightning Chaser.
