This was inspired by the new episode "Rainbow Falls" in which there a heartbreaking moment where Soarin' says Rainbow is lucky to have friends, because no one visited him, not even Spitfire.

It's a nice cloudy day in Ponyville, and Blazin' is just about to wake up when....

Rainbow: *swings bedroom door open* Yo, I heard you are the only pony who hasn't heard of or met Soarin'!

Blazin': GYAHH!! *bounces up and hits the floor* Yeah, what about it?

Rainbow: Your'e kidding, right? He's one of the captains of the awesome Wonderbolts! You have GOT to meet him! I'll wait outside for you.

Blazin': Ready.

Rainbow: All you wear are your glasses? I have something better in mind: Wonderbolts glasses. I bought them for you, so you could look like a fan.

Blazin': I feel like an idiot.

Rainbow: I'll put your other glasses in your glasses case, which is where, now?

Blazin': Hanging from my saddle bag. I'm helping AJ collect apples, so you'll see me with these more often.

The two walk to a large field where Rainbow said she saw Soarin' practicing.

Blazin': Is that him up there?

Rainbow: You bet! He's got some awesome moves! *blushes*

Blazin': Huh? You like him or something?

Rainbow: Don' be silly! Do you like Luna? I heard you wrote a few love letters to her, and she wrote some to you.

Blazin': N-no! We're friends who have a lot in common.

*lightning flashes*

Blazin': It's getting dangerous to fly out here. Shouldn't he stop?

Rainbow: Lightning doesn't faze him. He's doing fine!

*KA-BLAM! ZZZT!*

Blazin': He's been hit! He's going down! I better catch him!

Soarin': WAAHHHHH!! *lands in Blazin's arms* Thanks...who are you?

Blazin': I....

Rainbow: My awesome friend Blazin' Blue! He's-a fan just like me! Notice his glasses?

Blazin': Stop lying!

Rainbow: Are you ok?

Blazin': Hold it. He just got barbecued! Does he look ok to you?

Rainbow: He can barely stand...no, he doesn't.

Soarin': Call Nurse Redheart....

Blazin': Shoot, left my phone...

Rainbow: Mine's low on the battery...

Blazin': Then we'll take you to her on foot!

After a few minutes of running, they arrive in time.

Rainbow: Made it. I'm sure Spitfire will visit!

*Blazin and Rainbow leave*


A week goes by and Soarin' is waiting for Spitfire to visit him. He becomes hopeless that not even she visited, despite the fact she was a captain. A minute later....

Nurse Redheart: Soarin', there are two ponies here to see you.

Blazin': Hey, Soarin'! I was worried when Spitfire didn't show, so we came.

Rainbow: Guess who? Yep, it's me! We came to make sure you were doing fine.

Soarin': That's really nice of you.

Blazin': No problem. It's what friends do.

Soarin': Did you say 'friends'?

Rainbow: Yep. By the way, have you two gotten the chance to meet?

Soarin': A little, but never got to shake hooves and things like that.

Blazin': Allow me. Hey, I'm Blazin' Blue, and I love drawing. What's your thing?

Soarin': I'm Soarin', and I love flying, or "soaring" as you might call it.

Blazin': Made this drawing while waiting for her to visit you, but it turns out she didn't. It's of me, you and Rainbow with arms around each other! Here's a copy for you, which I put in a frame.
And here's one for you, Rainbow.

Rainbow: Hold on. It's not complete without his signature!

Blazin': I wrote my initials on them already!

Rainbow: It'll make the other fans jealous!

Blazin': Soarin', *takes out pen* sign my drawing and her copy?

Soarin': No problem *signs both* There you go!

Rainbow: This is so awesome! We'll see you when you get better!

Soarin': Ok!

Rainbow: Whaddya think of him?

Blazin': He's really cool! It nice to let him know he has friends like us!
