"Wouldn't surprised me." he said as he took a long gulp of his drink before setting it down. "They're too concerned whether their armor's polished to get into a fight. Let alone win one. And you also don't march into a place like this to stop brothers from being brothers. Military's a family." he stated as he continued to casually observe the fight.

"True enough." Nova said. Taking a drink. "Ah damn. Is that the time?" He said, looking at the clock. "I gotta get my workout in before long. Got other duties for the night. But, hey, you doing anything tomorrow evening? We could go for a flight or something."
"Maybe... It's time to forget..."

"Hm yeah sure. When and where?" Boom asked before downing his last drink of the night. He contemplated whether or not he should stick around to watch the end of the fight occurring. He was sure the small one could win if he kept at it.

"How about we meet at the bell tower? 2100?" Nova suggested, finishing his drink and standing. "I'll see you there, we'll make a race out of it." He said. "He dropped some bits on the table to pay for both of their drinks, then gave Boom a pat on the shoulder as he passed him. "Good meeting you. See ya tomorrow."

Boom Wing gave Nova a light nudge to his shoulder in reply, along with a nod to his words. Boom opted to stay in the bar for a moment longer to see the victor of the bar fight. It wasn't long before Boom Wing managed to sneak out of the bar before becoming involved in the fight himself. He made his way home to the mansion and slept the night away. The next evening he'd be near the bell tower at 8:45pm, keeping a close eye on it. Fourteen minutes later he'd swoop over to the bell tower and look around.

The next evening, Nova had arrived at the bell tower at precisely 2100. The sun had already set long ago, with nothing but the moon and stars to brighten the sky. "Evening." He greeted Boom as he approached. He landed on the balcony that surrounded the bell. "How you feeling tonight?"

"Good evening." Boom greeted Nova.

"Sober." Boom replied. "An almost scary thought in itself." He hadn't drank much last night and maybe had a glass of scotch that day in the afternoon. He was surprised he wasn't detoxing that very instant.

"Heh. Well, wouldn't want your senses dulled for this." Nova said, pointing down towards the streets. "I was thinking we could take Duncan loop. It's long enough that maybe one or two laps will get a good sweat out of us. Say we stay below rooftop level. First one to cross Main wins?"

Boom Wing looked out upon the cityscape of Canterlot. It was filled to the brim with tall buildings and rooftops that hid the streets beneath it. He could almost outline the path they would take to get to the destination he spoke of. There were few straight lines. "Is that a challenge to a flight instructor? Ballsy. Alright, by your lead." he stated. Nova was about to make the mistake of challenging Boom Wing to a flight of maneuverability rather than speed.

"Starting here then." Nova said, a competitive grin on his face. "They should be ringing the bell any second. That'll be the signal to start." Nova made ready on the railing of the balcony. This would be a fun challenge. Something out of the norm of his day. And also a good exercise.

Boom Wing hopped up to the railing of the bell tower, right beside Nova. No sooner had he done that then the bell rang. Boom jumped up and turned backwards. Using the technique that earned his cutie mark, he pushed his powerful wings together before him and created a loud booming noise as he fired off away from the bell tower. With a controlled spin he flipped around and glided down towards the first turn in their race with great speed.

Nova launched off of the railing with a powerful kick, combined with a flap from his wings for maximum thrust. He dove at an angle towards the first turn, wings mostly tucked at his side to keep wind resistance down while maintaining a glide.

Boom approached the first turn along their path and didn’t even look to see where Nova was. He maintained his speed, not changing in direction until it appeared as though it were too late. Then he opened his wings and gave a powerful flap at angle in front of him. His forward momentum changed to a completely new direction with a loud boom. He now headed down the street with similar speed and flew towards the second turn of the race.

Nova watched Boom use those huge sails he called wings. It definitely gave him an advantage having wings that big, but Nova was sure that his endurance would hold strong. He took the same turn after Boom, following close behind, wings now spread wide and flapping for speed.

At any straightaway Boom would lose place, being only slightly slower than Nova when he flapped his wings. It was on the turns that Boom knew he would be able to out-fly Nova. He soon reached the next in their race and Boom wing once again changed directions with a powerful flap and trademark boom noise. To those who wouldn’t suspect it, the boom alone was disorienting. Now heading down one of the longest stretches of open streets, Boom would have to work to keep his pace. Open was a relative term, as the street was lined with hanging banners and lamp posts that reached high from the streets. Boom Wing began flapping maintain what little lead he had, feeling a sharp pain start to rise in his joints.
