The pegasus gave the phoenix a pet with his wingtip before he eventually stopped playing; he stretched out, a little tired. "Mmnn... I think I might take a nap myself... maybe down here on the couch."

Fenny enjoyed getting patted on the heead by Arpeggio. It was always nice when another petted him, he loved that. He nodded in reply as Arpeggio stopped playing, understanding 'I' and 'nap' in his sentence. The phoenix flew into the air before landing again in his soft mane. If arpeggio was going to nap, he probably should mind the semi-divine bird nestling in his mane... lest it catch on fire.

Arpi petted the phoenix again... before removing him from his mane. "I don't think you should do that..." He walked over to the couch and laid down on his back, stretching out.

Fenny was saddened as Arpeggio removed him from his mane. For some reason, it felt amazing for the phoenix to lay in. He didn't know why, he just followed his instinct and nestled in it. However, now he couldn't... He watched as arpeggio lay down on his couch near Starry. It had been a long day for both of them and they were probably tired from it. Even Fenny was a bit burnt out at thatvtime and he hopped onto Starry's back and snuggled in between her wings...

It didn't take long before the pegasus was out, sleeping peacefully by the young filly; he snored lightly, feeling at peace and quite happy that he was able to help her.

Starry didn't sleep well. Almost as soon as she fell asleep, dead tired from exhaustion, she had another nightmare. It was her usual nightmare, but Starry could never remember her dreams... So ever one was a new, terrible dream for her. She awoke on a small platform of clouds. Above her seemed to be a large spire of white fluffy clouds. She got up and looked over the edge, it was a massive kingdom of white fluff, spread out for miles upon miles. There were other ponies too, and they laughed and played or did their normal business. Starry was onto a mile high tower whose top she could not see. As usual Starry was thrilled by such a sighting and tried to jump off the edge to explore, but as usual some unseen force stopped her. Then everything got worse, small portions of the kingdom began falling... Then larger ones, dropping out from beneath the unsuspecting ponies. Starry screamed out to them, tried to get their attention in any way possible, but it was not use. Slowly she was forced to watch them all drop below the cloudiness and watch as the kingdom fell to pieces.

Then the spire turned into a storm cloud and it collapsed... And Starry fell with it...

The filly awoke with tears in her eyes. It was another Nightmare, but she couldn't remember what it was. All she knew is that sometime during it, she had been falling. Then Starry remembered where she was, inside the house of a kind pegasus who had taught her to fly. She remembered her failure... And particularly why she had failed... She was weak, her wingstrength was too weak. This infuriated Starry, who believed that if she could fly, she could have saved herself in the dream.

The small filly ran outside, determined to improve herself and touch the roof by sunrise. She dropped down and held her chest off the ground only by her wings and back legs. Starry had seen this before, some pegasus in her town had demonstrated how he could do some unnaturally large amount of them at one time. That didn't matter though, all that mattered was that she was able to do them. Starry counted out loud as she lowered herself to the ground.

"One... "

Arpeggio was completely unaware of what Starry was doing outside; when he was tired and asleep, there wasn't a whole lot that could wake him up, at least under normal circumstances. He still snored lightly, sleeping peacefully.

As Starry did her workout outside, Fenny slowly woke up. He yawned, content with his sleeping, and then realized where he was. He was on the couch... This was unacceptable to him, as he required any sort of fur to sleep in. It was customary for him. Thankfully there just-so-happened to be a silky chocolate smelling mane nearby. Fenny couldn't resist and he glomped Arpeggio's mane.

"Mmffnn..." The pegasus murmured a little as he felt something very warm attach itself to his head. He rolled over a little, stretching, before going back to sleep, barely perturbed by the bird's action.

Starry continued her wingtip-ups, as she now called them. She had done several sets of 5, each time taking a break and jogging around his house several times. That was Starry for ya, always working on somehting. Finally, she decided to push herself and try to hit ten. The first five were easy, as usual, but she then had trouble hitting seven. She grunted a bit and finally finished it, before going down carefuly and just barely hitting her eighth in a row. She groaned from the aching in her wing muscles... already recovered from their short tear earlier.

".......niiiIIIIIIIIINNNEEEE!!!" she yelled as she finally made her way to the top. This was it... her final one. She wouldnt fail again... Starry dropped rather quickly towards the floor, just barely stopping herself from hitting it. Exhausted, she slowly and painfully pushed her way up.

"TEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-" she started yelling as she approached its completion.

Fenny heard this and cawed into Arpeggio's ear, trying to wake him up.

"Gyah!" Arpeggio yelped as Fenny cawed into his ear, 'jumping' and falling off of the couch with a loud thud. "Mmff!" He shook his head, hearing Starry's yelling. "W-What in the world...? Starry!" He got up and began going outside to where she was.

Starry was almost there! she was going to do it! Ten in a row!!! her wings were almost burnt to their limits and she was pushing herself up on sheer willpower alone.

".....AAAAAAAAANNNN!!!!!!!" she screamed as she finally finished the wing up... before collapsing to the ground, exhausted.

Arpeggio sighed lightly. "You really should be more careful... you could've seriously hurt yourself." The large pegasus picked Starry up onto his back, bringing her in and setting her down on the couch. "You rest. If you keep going as you are, you'll definitely tear a muscle; wings don't always heal easily so you need to be careful."

Starry just lay there, completely exhausted and unable to move. All she could do was mutter 'I did it... ' over and over again to herself. She felt as someone picked her up and brought her somewhere, but she couldn't tell who it was. It took her a while to realize that it was Arpeggio.

"I... Think I went too far... " she told him once on the couch.

"Yes. Yes you did. I did warn you... I just hope you didn't tear something worse..." He sighed a bit, glancing at the phoenix. "You really don't stop when you put your mind to something, do you?"

The brown pegasus shook his head slightly.
