Calling all pegasus ponies!
Meeting tonight!
Meeting tonight for all Ponyville pegasi.
Library, tonight.
Be cool, or be mule.
No offense.
None taken.
Alright, go on in.
Find a seat.
You too, Fluttershy.
Come on, let's go.
Every living thing depends on the life-giving nourishment of rainwater,
and it is up to Cloudsdale to provide rain-filled clouds to every corner of Equestria.
But how, one pony might ask, does Cloudsdale gather all this extra water?
Tornado power!
That's right, pegasi driven tornado power.
A team of pegasi combine their wing power to create a jumbo tornado,
powerful enough to pull water out of the local reservoir,
and funnel it all the way up to Cloudsdale.
Remember, pegasi, your jumbo tornado
must reach a minimum of eight hundred wing power
to lift that water up to Cloudsdale.
So, the next time you're wondering
“Where does all that extra rainwater come from?”
just remem-
Intermission?
So, here's the scoop.
Cloudsdale has chosen our own highland Reservoir as the source of the rainwater they need for all of Equestria.
And you know what that means.
It means it's up to Ponyville's pegasi to bring that water up to Cloudsdale.
Not only that,
but Spitfire, captain of the Wonderbolts, will be here to oversee the water transfer and record our top tornado windspeed.
Now last year, Fillydelphia broke the windspeed record with a top speed of nine hundred and ten wing power.
But I think we can do better.
I think we can get a top speed of over a thousand!
If each and every pony trains, and trains hard to get their wing power numbers up.
That coughing better be from a popcorn kernel, Thunder Lane.
Nopony's getting sick on my watch.
So, are we gonna train hard?
Yeah!
Are we gonna be strong?
Yeah!
Are we gonna be fast?
Yeah!
Record-smashing fast?
Yeah!
Who's with me?
Fluttershy!
Stretch those hooves, Flitter!
Nice flexibility, Cloudchaser.
A... little foolish flexibility, Blossomforth.
Uh, somepony give Blossomforth a hoof.
Let's see some faster trotting, Thunder Lane!
Good pace, Silver Speed!
Keep it up!
We're gonna need all the wing power we can get to break that record!
YEAH!
Good work, everypony!
Everypony except Fluttershy.
Fluttershy! I know you're in there!
You're avoiding tornado duty and I want to know why!
Fluttershy, open-
Hi, Rainbow Dash.
Fluttershy, what happened to you?
Oh, I…
I think I have the pony pox.
I'm sorry, I really, really wanted to training with you today
but this pony pox has really knocked me for a loop.
Oh, you poor thing.
You know, there's only one cure for pony pox.
I know, plenty of bed-
Cold water!
Those pony pox're clearing right up.
Oh, y'know, all of a sudden I'm, I'm starting to feel better.
I'll just get out of these robes and-
Oh, my wing, oh, ow, it's hurt.
I guess I can't fly after all-
Messed up wing, huh?
Stop horsing around, Fluttershy.
You've got a lot of training to do.
Come on now, what's going on?
Well, y'see, uh, well, oh,
Oh! Rainbow Dash, I just can't do it!
I can't fly!
What are you talking about?
Just last week you went into that wicked nose dive to save that falling baby bird right before it hit the ground!
But that was different, that was an emergency!
