It was another end of a week, Friday. The wonderbolts were training harder than the usual for the upcoming winter solstice. They all headed to the exit and sighed in a relief. Finally, some time to relax... Rainbow was becoming a part of the team day by day; she could feel it. And they were already close friends with Soarin so that they had known each other since the foal hood. She was walking with him, side by side again and suddenly Surprise cut their way.

"Hey Dashie, Soarin! We are going to Fleet's home for a Friday game night. Are you coming?" she said, jumping with excitement.

"Well, we'd like to join you but-" Dash couldn't finish her words.

"We are doing our first movie night with Dash." said Soarin.

"Yeah, we are but if somepony let me complete my sentence I was going to say that!"

"Sorry, Dash. It's just, I can't wait for it!"

"Oooh! So you guys are having a date tonight, right?" Surprise replied eagerly.

"N-No Surprise! It's just a friends hangout." Rainbow told, with a blush; Soarin joining her.

"Whatever you say Dashie. See you guys around!"

Surprise waved at them and left. Why do her friends and Surprise think like that? They were just friends nothing else nothing much. And their claims weren't making the things any easier. Dash couldn't help but keep thinking about it after their tea party. It was just too much for her.

She just gazed at the stallion who was flying with her and followed him idly to his house.

Finally, they arrived at Soarin's house. It wasn't so for to the Wonderbolts H.Q., somewhere outside the Cloudsdale. It had two floors and was a larger structure than Dash's home. In front of the building, there was a fountain of lightning which seemed a bit odd to Rainbow. But once she remembered his talent was lightning stability, it was legit.

They headed to inside the house. The rooms were slightly narrower compared to outside. She slowly glided to the couch and placed herself. Everything was so "Soarin" style in the room. There was a huge curved LCD, so many wonderbolt items and even a pie stock beside the sofas! She smirked at the stock.

Soarin came back from the kitchen, sat next to her with some snacks in his hooves.

"So Dash, What should we watch?" He asked.

"I don't know. Haven't you thought of something?"

"Well, I have," Soarin replied, pointing a DVD. "I got a movie I haven't watched yet. Bloody Lura 2: The Revenge."

"Bloody Lura 2: The Revenge? A-Are you sure?"

"What? Don't tell me that Rainbow Danger Dash can't handle a horror movie."

"O-of course I can."

"Then, it is settled. We are watching it." He said and put the DVD into the player.

The movie was about the tale of a former maid in the castle of the two sisters. According to the tale, while Nightmare Moon terrorising the castle Lura the maid lost her beloved friend. After that, Lura made an oath to kill whoever tries to remove her friend's memory. And her soul invaded this place as its eternal dwelling, killing or wounding somepony.

At the first 30 minutes of the movie, Dash tried to hide her fear. Two friends were escaping to the depths of the corridors. Lura was nearing every second and suddenly captured one of them. Dash cringed slightly.

"Hey Dash, scared?" Soarin inquired.

"N-No I'm not. Let's continue."

"OK."

They kept watching for a while, Dash drowned the popcorn more and more. Lura took her victim and began to leave deep scratches on the pony. Her eyes were scarlet, burning with the flames of anger. She was releasing a chalky trail behind. Soon she did her last move and slew him. Turning her head to the other friend.

Rainbow hugged a pillow tightly and gulped. Then, the first half of the movie ended and she let out a sigh. This movie was horribly frightening that she had few visits from Princess Luna. But she was Rainbow Dash, she had a reputation to protect.

Soarin went to the kitchen with the excuse of "refreshing" his snacks. The truth was he quite enjoyed see Rainbow's scared side. And he decided to break her ego by a little prank. He covered himself with some ketchup and flour, later he brought fake vampire teeth.

It's been a long time since Soarin left and Rainbow was getting worried. She looked at the kitchen door, there wasn't any sound from him. Abruptly, she heard a whistle around. She couldn't determine the way of it, however; sensed the chills running down through her belly.

Rainbow noticed a silhouette above her, stared at that direction. A simple 'boo' echoed in her ears. There was an upside down head with a pale and bloody face. She immediately threw her pillow and curled.

"BWAHAHAHA! That was amazing." Soarin laughed in tears. "You had to see your face, this will be staying for millenniums!"

However, Dash didn't even respond him. She was busy with attempting to calm herself as Soarin came closer.

"R-Rainbow? Are you OK?" he called her hesitantly.

He spun her around, her eyes were shrunken and her voice was mixing with moans. Dash's tears were uncontrollably rolling down. When Soarin touched her, she shivered. He couldn't bear to see her like this and wrapped his wings around her, caressing her rainbow mane. Dash only dug her face into his chest.

"I'm so sorry Rainbow, I didn't mean to fear you like that."

"I-It's f-f-fine S-Soarin." she answered silently.

And she watched rest of the movie under his warm and safe embrace, burying her head to his neck. Were her friends really right about him?
