[The last thing that Selphie could remember was Ultimecia's castle vanishing into a blinding white light. It had left her wandering in the never-ending sterility of Time Compression, calling out for her friends, for anybody. It truly felt as if each step was taking her farther and farther away from everything that she held dear until one day, it all appeared before her again. She stood there, injuries and all from the battle that were still healing in a dumbfounded state. She ignored the murmurs, the stares and the pointing fingers as her nunchaku slipped from her hands and clattered to the floor.

Leaving it behind, Selphie stumbled toward the directory where her life had begun to change and stared at it. It all looked the same but after not seeing it all for so long, nothing looked the same at all. She wasn't sure if she was dreaming or not but the dull ache she felt throughout her entire body had her leaning quite heavily towards this all being real. It was all real or a very cruel nightmare.

The map thankfully, seems to have remained the same and she veers off toward the left. She feels like hell and probably looks like it too but she honestly could care less as she started a slow trudge toward the infirmary. Was Dr. Kadowaki still there or was Selphie in for a surprise? She couldn't say for sure but those steps toward the infirmary were leading Selphie towards a new chapter in her life. She was exhausted and bone weary as she came to the door of the infirmary before too long. Of course, how long it takes her also depends on how often she gets stopped on her way there.

Eventually, she stepped within distance of the sensors and watched as the door opened.]

Helloooooooo? Anybody home?

What?

Nuh-uh! I'm not specializing as a pilot to NOT fly that thing! I'm the best there IS in the air!

Yah-huh! You can be the co-pilot.

CO-pilot?!

Get back to me when you're a Wonderbolt and then maybe I'll think you're worth flying with! Till then, you can only watch in awe!

[She whips around Selphie casually, grinning like the cocky jock she is.]

Co-pilot.

There's no way I'm watching in awe until you tell just what the heck a Wonderbolt is.

The Wonderbolts are Equestria's best flying team!

[The arrogance vanishes beneath Rainbow's sincere and pure fangirl glee.]

They are the most incredible, most amazing of all-time!

As amazing as Sir Laguna?

I'm preeeeetty sure he doesn't fly.

So? You don't have to fly to be amazing, don't you think?

But I'm also pretty sure you have to be able to fly to be an amazing flyer.

Then that's me! I'm an amazing flyer.

But Sir Laguna is just plain amazing.

You don't have wings EITHER.

[This girl sort of reminds her of Pinkie Pie.]

Why do I need wings to be a flyer?

Because if you're flying a vehicle then you're a pilot, which is totally different.

Not really. If you think about it, an airship has wings. It just needs someone to help them move.

And you're not doing that with musclepower. You're doing it with machines! I mean do you go around claiming you're a great runner because you can drive a car?

Considering I don't drive? Nope!

...How did you graduate without passing Defensive Driving?

Oh, that course! I passed it, I just don't drive.

Well, you COULD drive, and that's not the point anyway!

So just how fast can you?

How fast? How fast?

[Rainbow leans back, crossing her forelegs with a look of absolute smug satisfaction.]

The legendary, near-mythical Sonic Rainboom? Not so legendary and impossible to see with THIS pegasus pony around.

Uh... huh...

[Sorry Dash, but she's not entirely convinced.]

What? You don't believe me? I've done it. People have seen it here!

Prove it.

[Rainbow's back stiffens at the challenge. She points a foreleg to the entrance.]

All right. Outside. I'll show you.
