The storm was bad.
Rainbow Dash knew the dangers of flying in a storm, but she’d done it so many times before, sure it was dangerous, but for some reason that was what drove her to them. She loved the slight breeze, she loved how the clouds lit up with flashes of the storm.
What danger could she be in? She’d only fly for a short time and go back home afterwards.
A bright flash of lightning lit up the sky, storm clouds blocking out the sun as hail rained down.
She took off into the very heart of the storm.
It was difficult to fly through, every move she made was met with resistance.
Instantaneously, a sharp pain erupted through her chest.
She assumed she’d been hit by a rogue lightning bolt, her vision being overwhelmed with light as her wings failed and she fell to the ground.
However what Rainbow didn’t realize was that it wasn’t a lightning bolt that struck her, but a blast from the horn of a unicorn.
