Day 0

Not much occurred leading up to Rainbow Dash's training, other then Soarin getting things ready for Operation Counter Strike. During that time, the day before Rainbow Dash's training began, he invited Rainbow Dash on a picnic.

"So, tomorrow is the start of my Wonderbolt training huh?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Yeah. Listen though, you should know the Wonderbolts have hit a bit of a rough patch. Which is why your being invited like this. But the full extent of it is something I'll tell you about when your training week is complete. Look, I want to know that no matter what happens, you still think we can be a thing." Soarin said.

"So long as you don't do something like what Spitfire did and break a promise to me, then I'll have no problems to you. Speaking of which, has Spitfire mentioned anything about after the next show?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Didn't she tell you that this was a trial run? See if your really ready to fly with the best?" Soarin asked.

"Yeah. Yeah she did say that. Several times over." Rainbow Dash said.

"Good. I want you to keep that in mind for the rest of the week. Remember, Spitfire has lied to you once already. I've never lied to you. So I'm not going to lie about anything. So while I can't tell you why I want you to keep things in mind until the week is through, I want you to trust in me." Soarin said.

"Soarin, I do trust you. It's Spitfire I don't." Rainbow Dash said.

"Then we're good." Soarin said.

Day 1

"Whoa!" Spitfire said, as Rainbow Dash finished up. "...That was just...it was..." She said.

"Super amazing right? Told you I could handle it." Rainbow Dash said. "Same time tomorrow?" She asked.

"Yeah...sure..." Spitifre said, waving Rainbow Dash off. "...Plan Omega is working out too well. I've got to try more difficult maneuvers first thing tomorrow, or someone on my team is getting replaced by some upstart who doesn't know how the real world works." Spitfire said.

Day 2

"I'm real glad we can spend time together when I'm done with Training, Soarin." Rainbow Dash said.

"Yeah. And you've been doing very well with the tricks so far. Spitfire is even thinking about you doing a couple with one of the others tomorrow." Soarin said.

"Ha! I've got this training week in the bag!" Rainbow Dash said.

Day 3

Spitfire was soon approached by Crescent Moon as she prepared to leave.

"Plan Omega? Really Spitfire? Really? Are you going to repeat your father's biggest mistake of all time?" Recent Moon asked.

"And what if I am? You said that you didn't care how I got the Wonderbolts back on top. And Plan Omega is the way to go." Spitfire said.

"What makes you so sure the same thing will work this time when Rainbow Dash is clearly overperforming even your most advanced tricks and is so in synch with the rest of the Wonderbolts?" Crescent Moon asked.

"Some dreams have to be crushed. And tomorrow, I'm planning on adding even more members to the training." Spitfire said.

Day 4

"Geez, your on fire Rainbow Dash." Soarin said. "Even with three Wonderbolts joining you, you haven't had ANY troubles. what's your secret?" He asked.

"I don't know what it is...but whenever I'm flying with you guys, I just feel like I actually belong with you guys. I really hope after the next show, I'm a full-fledged Wonderbolt." Rainbow Dash said.

"Put a pin in that thought would you? I want you to remember it for the end of the week." Soarin said.

"Sure, I trust you Soarin." Rainbow Dash said.

Day 5

Lighting Dust went wide eyed suddenly. "What...even when all six of you were together? Damn. Spitfire must be getting desperate. Next thing you know, Spitifre will make an audience of cardboard cut-outs. ...What do you mean that's her next big plan?" Lighting Dust asked.

Day 6

"I've tried everything..." Spitfire said. "Even the cardboard cutout of an audience doesn't phase her. Ugh...tomorrow I have no choice but to call in the mock audience." She said.

"Spitfire, listen...why don't you just cancel Plan Omega already? It's not too late to do so." Crescent Moon said.

"No! Plan Omega is still a go!" Spitfire said. Crescent Moon left and then went to Soarin.

"...Do you have a way to get Rainbow Dash out of this whole mess with her reputation and her loyalty intact?" Crescent Moon asked.

"Yes sir. May I have your permission to activate it tomorrow after practice?" Soarin asked.

"Yes. Yes you do." Crescent moon said and left. Soarin soon called Lighting Dust.

"It's time." Soarin said simply.

Final Day of Training

Soarin and Rainbow Dash flew over to Rainbow's house after training.

"You've been such an amazing teammate, Rainbow." Soarin said.

"Thanks Soarin. So, do you think I'm going to be a full fledged Wonderbolt after..." Rainbow Dash noticed Soarin's changed expresson. "What's up, Soarin?" Dash asked.

"It's this whole thing. I wanted you to wait until the end of the week for me to tell you. You remember Lightning Dust right? Go find her at her home first thing tomorrow. Here's the address." Soarin said and handed Rainbow Dash an address.

"There's something your not telling me, isn't there?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"There isn't for a good reason Rainbow Dash. Lightning Dust will be able to take you to someone whose situation matches what's going on right now. You may think your going to be a full fledged wonderbolt, but the truth of the matter is, this has happened before, and I can't bare to see you get hurt. So I'm pointing you in the direction that I am so that you don't get hurt." Soarin said. Suddenly Rainbow Dash kissed him on the cheek.

"Well then, thanks for looking out for me so much Soarin; I won't forget this. Ever." Rainbow Dash said, and headed inside her house.

"...She kissed me..." Soarin said, before he suddenly took off. "RAINBOW DASH KISSED ME!" He yelled out before flying off pretty fast.

"...Soarin, this was a great act of Loyatly you've shown me. I trust you." Rainbow Dash said before she went over to her poster of Spitfire. "...But I no longer trust Spitfire." She said before she proceeded to tear up the poster in question.
