    After an awkward silence, and getting no response from Lightning, she got up and left. Marble stayed at his place, not knowing anything else to do. He remembered that he brought his sketchpad with him, and took it out along with a pencil. It was one of those moments where instead of preplanning what he wanted to draw, he simply let the lines create themselves and roll with what they made. After making the initial shapes, he realized what he was drawing. A pair of familiar eyes. [colour=#ff0000]Why am I drawing Lightning's eyes?! [/colour]He closed the sketchpad in embarrassment. Trying to find something else to do, he looked out the window, where he saw Lightning Dust on a cloud with Flashbomb. He wasn't sure what they were doing, until he saw them hug. He immediately felt crushing disappointment. [colour=#ff0000]Of course she's with Flashbomb. I should have known... [/colour]He looked away as he lied to himself about his feelings. [colour=#ff0000]They're pretty good together... [/colour]Not knowing much else to do, Marble stood up and left the mess hall, without cleaning up his plate, and flew high up and laid on a cloud. He felt better, being away from others where he would have to hide his emotions more. He prepared himself for a pegasus coming to clear the cloud, as he closed his eyes and let himself cry. [colour=#ff0000]They're perfect for each other... Why do they make me so sad?[/colour]

    Flashbomb was the first to finish. He gave Marble an understanding pat on his back before leaving. It was him and Lightning left, with the others still at the table but seemingly immersed in their meal. Lightning Dust finished next, and after putting away her meal, sat down again and seemed to be daydreaming. He began thinking about his future more. [colour=#ff0000]Do I really want foals? I've never really thought about it... Want am I going to do after accomplishing my dreams? Just retire? Keep working without motivation? [/colour]He decided he'd talk to somepony about it, and Lightning seemed to understand him best. [colour=#ff0000]"H-hey Dust..." [/colour]He stuttered out seriously, catching her attention. It wasn't exactly easy, thinking about asking her if he should have foals. Especially since he was still confused about his feelings for her. He quickly changed his thoughts. [colour=#ff0000]"I-isn't the food here getting better? Seriously, it's so good now!" [/colour]After that, he took a large bite out of the food, which honestly WAS getting better.

    (GAH! OTPGASMING!) Lightning Dust complimented them on the competition, which Marble nodded to. Flashbomb then asked about their plans. [colour=#ff0000]"Well, I suppose..." [/colour]He coughed, still slightly embarrassed about his childish dream. [colour=#ff0000]"I-I still have to make a sculpture for the Canterlot Royal Gardens... And then..." [/colour]Images of him living with Lightning Dust, and a few foals flashed in his mind, but he quickly pushed those away as he cleared his throat again. [colour=#ff0000]"I guess that's it."[/colour]

    The mare with the painted hooves began talking a lot. He was use to listening to ponies rambling on, and listened to what she was saying. She mentioned something about painting before saying that it's what she was taking a break from. [colour=#ff0000]I know that feel. [/colour]She finally asked to see a rainbow up close. Mentally creating a map of Cloudsdale, he knew where to go. [colour=#ff0000]"The rainbow factory. Where all your fears and horrors come true." [/colour]He joked to them, though his voice rather serious. The only hint that it was a joke was his quiet chuckle afterwards. [colour=#ff0000]"This way." [/colour]He walked out the door, holding it for them, as he prepared his wings to fly.

    Marble joined his friends as they re-entered the mess hall for lunch. He was enthusiastic with getting food, still slightly hungry from the lack of food the day before. Plus, he burned a lot of energy with that game. He got the food and sat with the others, eating silently yet quickly. Soarin' sat with the other Wonderbolts, with his celebratory pie, which he ate in an uncouth manner.

    The two mares were enthusiastic with him showing them around Cloudsdale. Marble took another bite of his cinnamon bun, then stood up. One of them asked for his name. [colour=#ff0000]"Marble Chisel." [/colour]Was all he responded. He had never given a tour of Cloudsdale before. He knew his way around, after all, he helped with the construction of certain areas, but knew next to nothing about most of them. He just hoped he wouldn't have to act as a tour guide. Their happiness was making him a bit nervous. It really reminded him of his little brother, probably down in Canterlot. One of the mares put on an odd hat with a question mark for some reason. She tossed one to him, which he put on his head without knowing what else to do with it. He then stared at them again, waiting for them to say where they would like to go first.

    (I'm gonna' jump in!) Marble Chisel was walking through the streets of his home town. Most ponies were quite amazed with the cloudy architecture of Cloudsdale, but Marble had lived their long enough, and worked on them hard enough, to be rather sick of it. Snow was especially his worst enemy, mostly BECAUSE crafting it was his main job. Thankfully, it was the summer, so he had a nice break before returning to his frustrating, redundant job. He was rather dull compared to the other colourful pegasi, a dark red coat and a messy, greasy brown mane with chocolate brown eyes and three stone crowns on his flank. He was definitely one of the larger pegasi, tall and muscular, and his poker face had an odd tendency to intimidate ponies. He smelled something sweet in the distance. He turned his head and saw the pastry shop he rarely ever visited. His stomache growled as he remembered he hadn't eaten that morning. He entered the shop, and after a few seconds made it to the front of the line. The clerk asked what he wanted. [colour=#ff0000]"Cinnamon bun." [/colour]He responded, with his deep voice that always came up when he would hide his shyness. The clerk smiled nervously. [colour=#40e0d0]"A-anything else?" [/colour]Marble just stared at her in response. He really didn't want to have to speak again. She backed away slightly and handed him his cinnamon bun. He took a seat as he gnawed on the sweet pastry, listening to the ponies behind him, since he had nothing better to do. It seems one was an artist. He was interested in other artists. Nopony ever really knew Marble himself was into arts, mostly just seeing the snowcrafter he told everypony he was. They said something about needing a way around town. Sucking up his shyness, he decided to be helpful for once. [colour=#ff0000]"I can help." [/colour]He told them, as he stared over at them with his slow and scary, expressionless face.

    Lyria crossed the line! They won! Marble and Soarin' brohoofed each other in celebration. Wait... Marble realized what he did. It was almost like kissing Lightning Dust, though in a much more pleasant way. He held up his hoof and stared at it in wonderment. [colour=#ff0000]I will never wash this hoof again... [/colour]Returning to reality, he saw everypony was returning to the main building. Marble flew over to Lyria. [colour=#ff0000]"Awesome job Lyre!" [/colour]He congratulated her, with a quick nickname. For once, he was smiling quite genuinely. He was having a very good day. Meanwhile, Soarin' returned to his Wonderbolt team and began gloating to the ones that lost. [colour=#00ffff]"Oh yeah, and YOU oh me a sweet apple pie!" [/colour]He yelled to Rainbow Dash.

    Knight began stirring. He coughed retchidly, clearing his throat of the water, as he lay off to his side to try and recover. He had no idea what was happening. One minute he just saved the scarred guy, and felt so happy for doing something for once, and the next, he was laying on the ground, unable to do anything. He was barely conscious, though he thought he heard some ponies talking. He tried speaking, but his throat clenched tight and refused to comply. He felt very tired, and didn't want to open his eyes, though he could feel the sand beneath him.

    Everything began escalating. Lyria was able to get through the rainbow waterfall and grab the flag. Soarin' was enjoying his chase with Rainbow Dash (FANBOY SQUEE), but as soon as she changed trajectory to go for Lyria, he charged after them. Basically the same story for Marble, who was attempting to catch up with the two, though it was rather futile considering they both performed a sonic rainboom in their chase. He flew as fast as he could after them, but it was nowhere near their amazing speeds. Soarin' was catching up well though. While he couldn't do a sonic boom, or at least, hadn't performed one yet, he was still an amazingly fast flyer, who lead the chase against the two rainboomers.

    Scarred Dude swam out to continue the contest. Knight remembered something then. He returned to his cabin and grabbed his sword, deciding he could practice on the air after the contest. He returned quickly, and was confused to find that the dude hadn't returned yet to tell Knight about his victory. The water was deep, but no way it was THAT deep for him to be gone so long. Knight began having thoughts, and because of his less than intelligent mind, he swam out without removing his sword and without telling anypony else. He found the spot where he dived, and followed through. He swam down for a while, ignoring his need to get air, and squinting his eyes, he saw Scarred Dude tied up in fish lines! He swam down, careful not to get himself caught, and attempted to pry them apart, but they were too strong. Getting another idea, he floated out his sword. Unfortunately, the blunt wood did nothing. He was beginning to get lightheaded. Feeling desperate, he felt something odd in his horn, as he swore something happened to the sword. The next moment, the fish lines were severed, and the dude began floating up. Knight attempted to get up, quickly sheathing the sword again, but his desperate need for air forced his mouth open, and the moment before he surfaced, he fainted.

    (Throwing in Roid Rage, just 'cause) The match had started. Ponies began flying about, defending the flags or going for the other. There didn't seem to be much strategy with them. Marble saw Soarin' fly off, and felt an urge to follow him. He flew off, easily moving other ponies out of the way, until an abnormally large white pegasus, making Marble feel microscopic in comparison, blocked his path. It took a while of complicated maneuvres he was having troubles with, but he eventually got past the pegasus, and sighed with relief, as he began searching quickly for the flag. Soarin', meanwhile, was searching the many possible locations of the paths. His amazing speed and agility making it nearly impossible for others to catch him. He was even performing many aerial flips out of habit. Eventually, he saw a flag flapping about by a rainbow waterfall, being defended by Roid Rage, Rainbow Dash and several others. He charged up for the flag, getting rainbow water all over his face, getting some in his eyes as well, and loosing balance. He missed the flag, and was unfortunately too slow in wiping it out as another cadet tackled him, and he began attempting to escape his strong grasp.

    Okay, made my choice!

    Flashbomb surfaced after a number of seconds. After swimming over to Knight, he handed the device. Knight gawked at his distance; 10.5 meters! [colour=#b22222]"How could I have lost?!" [/colour]He yelled in frustration, annoyed that he was beat by such a little amount. [colour=#b22222]"Rematch!" [/colour]With that, he put the device back on and ran out to the sea. After the device beeped twice, he dived down, pushing his limits to kick harder and harder. Even after feeling the need to surface, he kept going for slightly longer, until he opened his mouth for a moment and a small amount of the salty water entered his mouth, making him want to gag. Going even faster, he floated to the surface, spitting it out and going to shore, drying his hooves quickly, then wiping at his tongue to get the taste off of it. After it was gone, he remembered he was in the competition. He looked at the device. [colour=#b22222]"11 Meters! Totally worth it!"[/colour] (Woops...)

    (You forgot Marble Chisel on Lightning Dust's team! Also, Roid Rage X Cloud Chaser, I'M IN AN OTP MOOD TODAY DON'T JUDGE!) The teams separated to hide the flags. Marble decided to take it, feeling clever that day, and hid it casually inside a nearby crevice. No more than one pony could enter without clipping their wings. Feeling well with the hiding spot, Marble flew back up with the group to discuss tactics. Meanwhile, Soarin' stayed back and was staring off in the distance to find where they were hiding the flag. Unfortunately, it was too far away for him to see a specific area, and there were ponies faking them out, but he spotted the basic areas where they would be.

    Knight fist pumped the air when Cheerilee announced an early recess. He charged out as soon as she opened the door, and immediately went to the swings, swinging around joyfully as fast as he could. Meanwhile, Pawn sighed in annoyance. He closed the book, put it in his saddlebag, then headed for the door, his head held high. After getting out, he found a seemingly quiet area with plenty of sunlight. He lay down in the area, and pulled out his textbook again, humming classical music to himself to drown out the giggling of the foals behind him as he began studying again.

    Lightning Dust and Rainbow Dash were the captains, and began picking the players. Marble was the first picked on Lightning's team. [colour=#ff0000]Wait... Is she just being friendly o-or... Pragmatic? Or is she dropping a hint that she wants to go out with more, or am I just overthinking everything? [/colour]Shaking those thoughts off, he trotted over to stand next to her. [colour=#ff0000]Hopefully it'll always be like this. Us on a team together. N-NOT THAT I THINK OF HER IN THAT WAY! [/colour]He didn't even want to admit his feelings in his mind. [colour=#ff0000]Maybe a bit in that way, but we're just friends... Right? [/colour]He facehoofed again, trying to stop himself from thinking like that. [colour=#ff0000]We have a game to win![/colour] Soarin' was eventually picked to play on Lightning Dust's team with the big guy, the shy girl, Angel, and some other cadet. Soarin' gave a (seductive) glance over at Rainbow Dash, who smiled back (HOW DID YOU KNOW I WAS GONNA' DO THAT?!). He took his place next to his teamates, checking them out (not in THAT way), and noting how they'd totally beat the other team! [colour=#00ffff]"You ready team!?" [/colour]He yelled out, psyched for the game and trying to rally up his teammates. The big guy was the first to respond, before blushing and melting back into the team.

    (SoarinDash is my OTP, so don't mind me while I drop subtle hints of it) Angel volunteered to get the supplies for the game. Everypony flew off to the runway to prepare, Soarin' flying next to Rainbow Dash, as they waited for Angel. There was still an awkward silence between Marble and Lightning, though she was at least speaking to him again it seemed. Soarin' stood with the rest of the Wonderbolts, mentally making his dream team, and preparing for the best tactics. After all, he had to win the free pie he promised himself.

    The pegasus seemed to have other ideas on what to do. He walked away for a moment, making Knight believe he didn't agree to the competition, but returned with some odd device he never saw. Scarred Dude (your temporary nickname) explained it to him. Knight didn't quite get it, but he put it on and swam out. He pressed the button, like the dude told him, then after it beeped, he swam down. He kicked his legs as fast as he could, going against his urge to rise and take a breath, until he nearly opened his mouth. He then turned around, and with the help of the oxygen in his lungs and his fast moving hooves, he surfaced quickly and swam back to the shore. [colour=#b22222]"10 meters. Beat that!" [/colour]Knight had no idea if that was good or not. It didn't give him his cutie mark. [colour=#b22222]Perhaps AFTER I beat him. [/colour]He then handed the device over to Scarred Dude.
  21. fireraven23
    (I dibs Soarin'!) Flashbomb went off to ask Rainbow Dash to join the match, and ended up coming back with the rest of the Wonderbolts! Marble was too nervous to say anything, and looked rather odd for such a large pony to have so much fear in his face. [colour=#ff0000]I gotta' impress them! But how? I'm not BAD at this game... Just not as good as the Wonderbolts themselves probably are! [/colour]He took a deep breath to calm himself down. He looked over to his childhood hero Soarin', and nearly started hyperventilating again. Marble would have facehoofed at what Soarin' said if he had any control over his body at that moment. [colour=#00ffff]"Winner gets free pie!"[/colour]
  22. fireraven23
    A voice came from behind Knight without warning. He jumped up and looked back, and saw the scarred pegasus behind him. [colour=#b22222]Perhaps next time I should actually look behind myself. [/colour]After getting over his stupidity, he realized that the pegasus accepted his offer for the competition. He was also gloating. [colour=#b22222]"Think you're so tough, eh? Alright, pony who makes it the deepest wins." [/colour]He then realized a small flaw in that. [colour=#b22222]"How do we know who makes it deeper? Why can't I just go two feet down and say I went 200?" [/colour]He changed the rules of the competition. [colour=#b22222]"First pony who surfaces loses! Deal?"[/colour]
  23. fireraven23
    Slick yelled some advice over to Knight. He continued paddling until the board was getting on the wave, then quickly stood again and attempted to balance on the board. The impatient young colt unfortunately didn't last long, as he attempted to look cool, but the position made him lose balance and fall into the wave again. He swam up quickly, and returned to shore. There was something on his flank! It looked like... A plant? [colour=#b22222]How is that a surfing cutie mark? [/colour]Feeling some doubt, he wiped at his flank, and the seaweed that was stuck to him fell off. [colour=#b22222]"So close!" [/colour]He yelled as he jumped up again. He saw Slick running over to him. [colour=#b22222]"That was awesome! Maybe someday, I'll actually stay on the wave though!" [/colour]He then remembered something from earlier. He didn't see the scarred pegasus anywhere, so he decided to just practice for his upcoming contest. [colour=#b22222]"Wanna' try diving?" [/colour]He offered Slick, with a competitive grin.
  24. fireraven23
    [colour=#282828]Slick began giving Knight advice on surfing, ranging from how to PROPERLY surf, to help on keeping balance. For some reason, he then started scolding Knight on going so far without experience. He apologized after though, which Knight accepted. [/colour][colour=#B22222]"Okay, I won't go and do stupid things like that." [/colour]He promised him, with some uncertainty in his voice, before adding more. [colour=#B22222]"Alone." [/colour]After that, he stood up again and grabbed his board. [colour=#B22222]"Alright, surfing cutie mark, HERE I COME!" [/colour]He yelled, as he charged out to the ocean again with Slick. This time though, he stopped at a much more begginers area to practice. [colour=#B22222]"Like... This?" [/colour]He asked Slick, as he lay on his board and started paddling as a small wave built up behind them.
  25. fireraven23
    Flashbomb suggested a game of capture the flag with everypony. Angel said if they could get everypony together, they could play. Marble smiled again. [colour=#ff0000]"That sounds fun!" [/colour]He looked over at Lightning Dust, and decided at another attempt to break the ice between them. [colour=#ff0000]"How about we avoid tackling each other this time?" [/colour]He joked, remembering his first defense tactic against Lightning.
