Chapters Equestria Girls: It's Showtime – Looney Tunes
It was a story very few people could hardly believe. In a galaxy far, far away, Sunset Shimmer, and the Equestrian Heroes, have been pulled away from their homes, into the middle of a galactic war, where they became separated.
Princess Twilight Sparkle and friends had crash landed on Tatooine, where they met the young hero, Luke Skywalker, and a veteran Jedi Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Meanwhile, Sunset Shimmer was captured by the evil Empire, where she was tortured and corrupted by the evil Emperor Palpatine, into serving as the Emperor’s Fury, Darth Seraphina.
Since then, for the next four years, Darth Seraphina has engaged in epic battles against her former friends, the Equestrian Heroes, while Luke Skywalker was left to contend with his father of the fallen Jedi, Darth Vader.
Then, miraculously, on the Battle of Endor, calling on the Force and the Magic of Friendship, Princess Twilight succeeded in purging the darkness from her fallen friend, just as Luke Skywalker had done the same to his fallen father. Darth Seraphina and Darth Vader were no more, and from the ashes, the former servants of Emperor Palpatine have regained their true identities – Sunset Shimmer and Anakin Skywalker.
The war was over. The Equestrian Heroes and friends have emerged victorious. However, in a bittersweet ending, instead of returning home with Princess Twilight and friends, Sunset Shimmer chose to stay behind, in the galaxy. Sunset had found her new home, where new adventures are waiting, far and wide, one planet to the next.
But Sunset Shimmer’s farewell won’t end with Princess Twilight, however, for she has yet to extend it to her other friends. Her Equestria Girls.
The streets were quiet. The sun was shining down on a friendly neighborhood. Walking down the streets, with her fiery hair blowing in the wind, and her beautiful moderate cyan showing a hint of sadness, the former Emperor’s Fury, Sunset Shimmer, swallowed a lump in her throat, knowing that it would be a painful farewell for her friends.
Walking by her side, is the former apprentice of Darth Vader, Galen Marek. Tall, ruggedly handsome, with gentle brown eyes that matched his buzz cut brown hair, it was hard to believe that both he and Sunset were once enemies.
“Are you okay?” Galen asked.
“I...I...I knew I’m going to have to tell them goodbye, sooner or later,” Sunset sighed. “Let’s just get this over with. First, I’ll tell them what’s really happening, and then...we can go to my apartment and pick up some things.”
Galen nodded in acknowledgement, before he offered another opportunity, “You know, Sunset. I love you and all, but...you don’t have to stay in the galaxy. You’re home now. You could just...stay here. Then, you don’t have to say goodbye to your friends, like you did with Princess Twilight.”
Sunset shook her head, “I’ve made up my decision, sweetie,” Leaning up, Sunset kissed Galen on the cheek. “But thank you.”
Eventually, their walk came to an end, when they arrived outside a familiar bakery that served as the favored hangout for Sunset and her friends.
“Well, here goes,” Taking a deep breath, Sunset Shimmer walked into the store.
As expected, Sugarcube Corner was packed with friends and family looking to have a good time together. Some of them are the people Sunset was familiar with. But for this day, she was looking for a special group. It didn’t take long before she found them, sitting at a table, in the corner, saddened, if not, bored out of their minds.
“Hey girls,” Sunset greeted, startling the girls from their stupor.
With a gasp, the girls looked up and were shocked to see their fiery friend, standing before them, as if she was a ghost.
“Sunset Shimmer?” Sci-Fi Twi exclaimed.
“Yeah, it’s me,” Sunset smiled sheepishly.
“SUNSET SHIMMER!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed happily, as she and her friends all leapt up from their seats and piled on top of Sunset, wrapping her in a group hug, and exchanging their heartfelt longing.
“We’ve missed you so MUUUUUCH!!!” Pinkie Pie squealed, tearfully.
“We thought we’d never see you again!” Fluttershy added.
“Indubitably!” Rarity said, with her tears ruining her mascara.
“It’s so great to see you again!” Sci-Fi Twi added. “Canterlot City hasn’t been the same without you!”
“Ah knew you wouldn’t leave without sayin’ goodbye!” Applejack added.
“Good to have you back!” Rainbow Dash added.
“It’s great to see you girls again,” Sunset Shimmer smiled sadly. “But...I’m not here to stay.”
With that, all joyful relief was quickly evaporated and replaced with heartbreaking shock, “WHAT?!” The Equestria Girls exclaimed.
“...Can we just...talk...at my...former apartment?” Sunset asked.
Later, at the said apartment, Galen Marek was in the process of packing up some of Sunset Shimmer’s belongings, in cardboard boxes. Her clothes, a scrapbook of her memories in the human world, even her favorite video games, which he finds very intriguing, compared to the technology of his galaxy.
Sunset Shimmer was caressing her precious pet gecko, Ray.
“Aw, Ray,” Sunset cooed as she coddled her pet. “How could I ever forget you, for...for four years?”
“Ahem,” Applejack cleared her throat, reminding her friend of the group’s presence. “So...about your...farewell?” Applejack frowned sadly.
“Yeah…” Sunset frowned, as she uneasily began. “I’m sorry girls. I really am going to miss you all, but I…”
“Hey, hey, I understand,” Applejack reassured. “Ya just...wanna go out and...find yer place. And...who are we to stop ya? Besides, some of us have big plans of our own. I’ll be spending the rest of my days at Sweet Apple Acres, with Big Mac, Apple Bloom, and Granny Smith, and...helping the family worldwide. And Twi...she’s going off to some big university and...you get the idea.”
“I do,” Sunset nodded.
“Just...just promise me somethin’ Sunset,” Applejack began. “No matter where you go, or no matter what happens, don’t ever forget, you were one of us. Like apples to the core. Okay?”
Sunset shed a single teardrop, as she and Applejack shared one last hug, “I promise.”
Soon, Applejack released her grip on Sunset, allowing Sci-Fi Twi to walk up to the fiery girl.
“Here, I...I made this for you,” Reaching into her pocket, Sci-Fi Twi produced what appeared to be a large ipad, with a cover that gives it the appearance of Sunset’s magic journal. “I wanted to show it to you, after our graduation from CHS. But you took off in a hurry, I...I didn’t get a chance to show you. It’s my latest invention. It’s like an iPad, but it’s modeled after the journal you and Princess me would use to communicate on a daily basis.”
Sci–Fi Twi sniffled a tear as she whimpered, “It’s probably not as impressive as all the advanced high-tech gears, or lightsabers, we’ve seen in the galaxy. But...hey, I did the best I could…”
Sunset couldn’t help but shake her head, “Twilight, Twilight, Twilight,” She scoffed, with a sly smirk. “Always selling yourself short. Sure, where I’m going, there’s jetpacks, or droids, or spaceships that can fly fourteen parsecs. But your inventions will always be topnotch for me.”
“...I...I wish we could come with you,” Sci-Fi Twi frowned. “I wish you could let us come along. Everything will be new and exciting for you...but this town won’t be the same without you…”
“But I’ll always be with you,” Sunset sympathized, as she walked over to put a comforting hand on Twilight’s shoulder. “Even if I’m several lightyears away, I’ll always be with you. And who knows? Maybe we’ll see each other again.”
The two girls shared a quick hug, before Sunset shook hands with Sci-Fi Twi, “Goodbye, Twilight.”
“Goodbye, Sunset,” Sci-Fi Twi smiled sadly, before she walked away, with tears in her eyes.
“So, you off on a holiday?” Pinkie Pie chirped, as she skipped up to Sunset. “When are you coming back?”
“Uh, Pinkie,” Sunset frowned, scratching the back of her head. “I’m...I’m not going on a holiday. I-uh...I don’t know when I’ll be back.”
“Oh, okay!” Pinkie Pie chirped. “So then, will you be home in time for Thanksgiving? Christmas? Or what about your birthday?”
“Pinkie...let me explain.”
“Oh, I’m just kidding, Shim-Sham!” Pinkie Pie laughed, giving Sunset a playful slap on the shoulder. “What do you think I am? An airhead, or something?”
“Hehehe. Never for a second,” Sunset chuckled, before Pinkie looked at her with teary eyes.
“I’m going to miss you a lot, Sunset,” Pinkie Pie whimpered. “For all the parties I’ll never get to throw for you.”
“I’m going to miss your parties 3000, Pinkie,” Sunset sniffled, as she and Pinkie shared one last hug, before the pink girl walked away.
Soon, Fluttershy took over, “I-I-I...Here,” Fluttershy sniffled, holding out a paper bag, filled with carrots, broccolis, and other vegetables. “I...Just some snacks for the...for the road,” Fluttershy cried a waterfall of tears. “So...you wouldn’t have to be hungry.”
“Aw, Fluttershy,” Sunset smiled as she pulled Fluttershy in for a heartfelt hug. “Thank you!”
“I’m...I’m…” Fluttershy returned the hug. “I’m just thankful I got to know the Sunset Shimmer I’m happy to call...my friend.”
Once Fluttershy parted, Rarity walked up to Sunset Shimmer, “I...I meant to give this to you, next Christmas. But…I suppose now is a good time to give it to you.”
Pulling out from behind her back, Rarity held out what appeared to be a brand new leather jacket, encrusted with colorful jewels that are shaped as the Rainboom’s respective geodes, on the collar, and a beautiful, flaming, purple phoenix, printed on the back.
“Rarity! It’s beautiful!” Sunset Shimmer smiled, donning up her new jacket, and marveling at the handiwork of her fashionista friend. “It’s totally me!”
“I’m glad you liked it, darling!” Rarity frowned. “I guess this is goodbye. I’ll never forget you....”
Sunset walked over to Rarity, and they both shared a hug, “I’ll wear it, and I’ll always think of you. And...I’m sorry again about the...spring debacle, when I was–”
“Oh pish-posh, and tut-tut, darling,” Rarity waved. “It’s all waters under the bridge now.”
Sunset and Rarity shared one heartfelt laugh, before Rainbow Dash marched up to Sunset, and glowered.
“So! This is how our story ends?” Rainbow frowned angrily, with sad tears betraying her eyes. “You’re leaving us? Just like that? After ALL we’ve been through?”
“Rainbow...don’t take it like that,” Sunset frowned, saddened by her friend’s outburst.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever!” Rainbow Dash huffed. “It’s not like we secretly joined Princess Twilight, the Rebellions, and secretly risked our necks, just to save you for nothing. You got a new boyfriend, and you two will make quite the dynamic duo, fighting aliens, bad guys, and...and stuff. BUT WHAT ABOUT US, HUH?” Rainbow barked, with tears in her eyes. “WE NEED YOU HERE, TOO! What if some more Equestrian Magic got loose and started causing more problems for us, huh? WHAT DO WE DO WITHOUT YOU THEN? I THOUGHT WE WERE A TEAM!”
“...I guess you’re just going to have to...wing it?” Sunset shrugged, using Rainbow Dash’s words against her.
“...Fine. If that’s how it is, then go!” Rainbow scowled. “But if you need help! You’ll call, right? Because we’ll come after you! And you know that, right?”
“Of course, Rainbow Dash,” Sunset smiled tearfully, as she walked up to the tomboyish girl. “Just...take care of yourself. And excelsior.”
“Yeah, yeah, whatever,” Rainbow cried, as she walked away.
At that moment, Galen Marek came over to Sunset Shimmer, with the last box.
“Take care of her, Galen,” Applejack called to the young man. “She’s everything to us.”
Galen bowed his head in response, “I will,” Turning to Sunset Shimmer, Galen asked, “Ready to go?”
Before Sunset could answer, the door to her now cleaned out apartment burst open to reveal Flash Sentry, with Juniper Montage, Wallflower Blush, and the CMCs, in tow.
“SUNSET! WAIT!” Flash Sentry and his entourage shouted.
“Flash Sentry!” Sunset exclaimed in surprise. “What are you guys doing here?”
“I texted them,” Pinkie Pie explained. “I figured it wouldn’t be fair for them, if you left without saying goodbye to them.”
“And...I’m...glad she did,” Apple Bloom panted heavily. “I thought we weren’t gonna make it in time.”
“We all wanted to say goodbye, Sunset!” Sweetie Belle said as she and the CMCs all wrapped their arms around Sunset in a group hug. “And good luck!”
“Yeah! Kick some bad guys’ butts for us, will you?” Scootaloo added, before she and her friends held out a yearbook. “And...can we have your autograph?”
“I’d be flattered, girls,” Sunset smiled as she signed her name on a page. “Just do me a favor, will you girls? Stay out of trouble. And keep up with your academics. In time, you’ll graduate from CHS.”
“We will,” Apple Bloom smiled. “And when you get back, we’ll make you proud!”
After the CMCs, Flash Sentry soon took over, scratching the back of his head, “So...you and Galen, huh?” He asked, before he smiled. “Well, you two make a lovely couple.”
“I’m sorry, Flash,” Sunset frowned sadly, feeling ashamed, if not, awkward. “I…”
“You don’t have to apologize, or anything, Sunset,” Flash reassured. “If you’re happy, then...I’m happy for you.”
“Thanks Flash.”
Turning to Galen Marek, Flash began, “So...Galen. Do you mind if I call you, G–Man?”
Galen simply shrugged, “Not at all.”
“Right then, G-Man. Do me a favor. Promise me you’ll take good care of her. We’ve been through a lot together, in highschool.”
“I promise.”
With that, the two young men exchanged handshakes, before Flash Sentry walked away to let Juniper take over.
“Hey, Sunset,” Juniper greeted. “Can I get...one last picture of you, before you go?”
“Sure,” Sunset granted, as she and Juniper took one last selfie for old time sake. “Mr. Buried Lede still giving you and Wallflower a hard time at work?”
Juniper simply gave a lighthearted chuckle, before she replied, “Don’t worry about us. We’ll be okay. I...I just wanted to wish you luck. And...I’m sorry again for the whole trapping you and your friends in a magic mirror business…I was a real jerk back then.”
“Don’t worry,” Sunset chuckled. “I know a thing or two about being a jerk. Speaking of whom,” Sunset turned and looked around the room. “Where’s Wallflower?”
“I’m right behind you…” Came the quiet voice of Canterlot’s local gardener, and former founder of the Garden Club at CHS.
“Wallflower! Hey!” Sunset greeted, holding her arms out for a hug. “I–”
“I know,” Wallflower frowned, in her usual mutter, before she held out a memory book. “Here.”
Turning the pages open, Sunset looked to see it contains all the captured, happy memories of Sunset Shimmer and friends, from the Fall Formal, to their Spring Break on a yacht, right up to their CHS graduation. But the magical part of it was that all the photos in the book were all moving, like in Harry Potter’s memory book.
“I...I asked Princess Twilight...if she could ask Discord to...put this all together, for you,” Wallflower muttered. “I...I hope this makes up for...what I did to you and your friends, some time ago,” The girl cringed, as she looked away, feeling more and more embarrassed of herself, by the seconds.
“What did you do?” Galen asked curiously.
Ignoring Galen, Sunset walked over to Wallflower Blush and pulled the gardener in for a hug.
“Thank you, Wallflower,” Sunset smiled. “This means a lot to me, from you.”
Still, the sad frown wouldn’t leave Wallflower’s face, “Why? Why does it have to end so soon? I...I feel like we were just starting to get to know each other! And now that you’re...you’re leaving us...does this mean...we stop being friends?”
“Never,” Sunset shook her head, as she reassured, “Listen, Wallflower. Don’t think of it as the end. Think of it as a beginning. A new beginning. The story of a new chapter for our stories. One that we can all share together. And no matter the distance, no matter the time, we’ll always be together, as one big friendship team.”
“...Team,” Wallflower muttered, with a tear rolling down her cheek. “You know, it’s funny. I’ve never been part of a team before,” Turning to Sunset Shimmer, Wallflower gave the fiery girl one last solemn smile. “At least, not until you opened my eyes to what friendship is all about. So...thank you…” Turning her back, Wallflower whispered to herself, “I love you.”
After hearing the last farewell from her friends, Sunset turned to look back at Galen Marek, and nodded, “Time to go,” She clasped her hand, with Galen’s, while looking down at Ray, in his cage. “Hold on tight, Ray.”
Talking into a comm, Galen Marek called, “Okay, Discord. Do your magic, or whatever…”
“Goodbye everyone!” Sunset waved to her friends present in the room.
“Goodbye, Sunset!” The group all waved, watching as Sunset Shimmer disappeared, with Galen Marek, all of her belongings, in a flash of light.
“So long, Sunset,” Sci-Fi Twi said, with a heartfelt sigh. “She’s gone…”
“But she’ll always be our friend,” Applejack reminded. “And we’ll never forget her.”
“She’s not that easy to forget,” Wallflower quipped.
“For infinity and beyond!” Pinkie Pie added.
“Still, if it weren’t for her,” Flash Sentry began. “We wouldn’t all be here, now would we?”
“Nope,” The girls shook their heads in response.
“So, riddle me this, girls,” Juniper began. “What’s next?”
“Whoo!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed, when her hair went bouncing and vibrating like crazy. “My pinkie senses are tingling!”
Meanwhile, somewhere in town, a large pile of dirt was kicking up, following a trail that went into town, until finally, it came to a stop in Sweet Apple Acres. Emerging from the burrow, stood an anthropomorphic gray and white rabbit.
“Here I am! Pismo Beach!” The rabbit hollered, before he took a better look at his new surroundings. “Hey! Wait a minute! Dis ain’t Pismo Beach,” Diving back into his hole, the rabbit pulled out a map, which he examined, “I knew it. I should’ve made that turn at Alberquerque and–”
But before he could continue with his rant, he was interrupted by the sound of an old lady barking.
“Consarnit! Them gophers are at it again!” Granny Smith grumbled as she came barging into the orchard, to find the rabbit intruder. “What in tarnation?”
“Eh...what’s up, doc?” The rabbit asked, casually munching on a carrot.
Author's Note
Hello bronies and pegasisters! This has been my first entry of Mr.E’s spin-off Equestria Girls: It’s Showtimes where everyone can write stories, pitting the Equestria Girls in their[our] favorite TV Shows.
The story of Sunset Shimmer with the Rainbooms may have ended – in the Cinematic Adventure – or has only just begun, depending on your point of view. But brand new adventures await, for our Equestria Heroines and friends.
Now then, as everyone say in Showbiz. It’s SHOWTIME!
Equestria Girls: It's Showtime – Looney Tunes
The Rainbooms and friends were following Pinkie Pie, who followed her Pinkie Senses, all the way to Sweet Apple Acres.
"Are you sure we have to go back to Sweet Apple Acres right now, Pinkie?" Sci-Fi Twi asked.
"Trust me," Pinkie Pie replied. "My Pinkie Senses never lie. Something big is going on at Sweet Apple Acres," Right on cue, Granny Smith was heard, screaming in the orchard. "Like that."
"Granny!" Applejack and Applebloom exclaimed together, before they, and their friends, all rushed into the orchard to see what the commotion was all about.
Back in the orchard, Granny Smith was screaming at the top of her lungs, as she chased after the bunny intruder, with a broomstick.
"Get out!" Granny Smith shouted angrily, as she chased the rabbit. "Out! Out you...you...vile creature!"
"Ey, take it easy der, lady!" The rabbit yelped, as he bounced around the orchard, ducking behind the trees, to avoid getting whacked by the broomstick. "I mean no harm! Honest. I jus' need ta-Yipe!"
Still dodging Granny Smith's broomstick, the rabbit broke the fourth wall and looked at the readers, "For an old lady, she's got decent swings. Reminds me of another old lady."
Turning his attention back at the current predicament he's in, the rabbit resumed dodging Granny Smith's attacks, who continued, "Git along now, you...you hoodlum! I said GIT!"
"Yow! I can take a hint when I'm not welcomed."
The rabbit continued to dodge Granny Smith's attacks, right when her two granddaughters and their friends arrived on the scene.
"Granny!" Applejack shouted. "Granny! Are y'all right?"
"What's going on here?" Apple Bloom asked.
"We've got a good-fer nothin' trespassing bunny man! That's what!" Granny Smith answered. "He's tryin' to rob our apples!"
"A bunny man?" Fluttershy asked with piqued interest. "Where?"
"He's right there!" Granny Smith pointed her broom, at the rabbit, only to see that the rabbit was nowhere to be seen. "Hmph! The varmint's skeedaddled!"
"Howdy do der, little lady," An old man's voice grumbled, to which the group and elderly woman turned to see an old man, wearing an oversized hat, a muddy brown shirt, and overall, with a really long beard covering most of his face. "What's all the ruckus? Some of us old-timers were trying to get some shut-eyes."
"Sorry mister," Applejack apologized, on behalf of her grandmother. "But I'm afraid the sun's gettin' to mah Granny Smith and she thought she saw a 'bunny man' in the orchard."
"I know what I saw," Granny Smith pouted. "The sun wasn't in my eye. It was settin'!"
In response, the old man simply gave a smirk – to the readers – before he asked, "Hmmm, a bunny man, eh? Does he have long ears, like dese?" He asked, showing some familiar rabbit ears.
"Yup!" Granny Smith confirmed, while the youth around her were startled.
"And does he have a fluffy tail, like dis?" The man asked, showing a familiar tail, poking through a hole, from the seat of his pants.
"Yup!"
"And does he hop around, like dis?" The old man then got on all four and hopped around the orchard.
"Yup! That's him alright!" Granny Smith nodded. "Ya seen him anywhere?"
"Nope! Haven't seen 'im," The old man said, as he took his leave, much to Granny Smith's dismay.
"Consarnit!" Granny Smith huffed, throwing down her broomstick.
Applejack, and Apple Bloom, however, were not so fooled.
"Hmmm, that's a remarkable description there, Mister...what ya say yer name was?" Applejack asked.
"Don't worry about me, youngin'," The old man quivered. "I'm jus' a little old man in the mountain, on top of Old Smokey."
"Hmmm, funny you should say that," Apple Bloom began, as she got behind the old man. "Because Old Smokey is NOT HERE!" She said, quickly pulling off the old man's hat, to reveal a pair of rabbit ears.
"AH-HA!" Applejack shouted. "Here's your bunny man, Granny!"
"Welp, I'm caught..." The rabbit shrugged, dropping his old man act, and resuming his natural Brooklyn accent.
"Yeah," Pinkie chimed in. "No offense bub, but...that wasn't a very convincing disguise..."
"Whoa!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. "Is that really a rabbit?"
"And it can talk?" Rarity asked.
"Kinda like Spike?" Sci-Fi Twi asked, with a raised eyebrow.
"He looks kinda familiar," Pinkie Pie pondered.
"Omigosh! A talking rabbit?!" Fluttershy exclaimed, as she runs up to the hare. "He's so cute!" With that, Fluttershy wrapped her arms around the startled rabbit, pulling him in for a hug, and spun him around.
After she was done spinning, Fluttershy gently set the dizzy rabbit down, as she reached into a pocket on her skirt, and held out a carrot.
"Go on. Eat up, big fella!"
"Hmmmm," The rabbit smirked as he talks to the readers. "Finally, someone who knows how to treat a rabbit well," Politely taking the carrot from Fluttershy, the rabbit munched on it, and greeted, "Now then. Eh...what's up doc?"
"I KNEW IT!!!" Pinkie Pie shouted, as she raced up to the rabbit, knocking Fluttershy to the side. "I KNEW YOU look familiar! You're Bugs Bunny! Aren't you?"
"Bugs Bunny?" Fluttershy asked.
"BUGS BUNNY?!!" The rest of the girls shouted, while Granny Smith looked confused.
"Is der an echo out here?" The rabbit, identified to be Bugs Bunny, asked.
"Nope," Big Mac answered nonchalantly, before he shared the girls' amazement. "Bugs Bunny?"
Sometimes later, after diffusing the awkward tension, the whole gang, including Granny Smith and Big Mac, were gathered in the Apple Family's house, where everyone were getting themselves acquainted with Bugs Bunny.
"Hey, nice spreads ya got here!" Bugs Bunny complimented. "It's no carrot farm, but it's got that nice homey touch to it."
"Why, thank ya, Mr. Bugs Bunny!" Apple Bloom smiled.
"Jus' Bugs will do," Bugs reassured. "Now then, ya all know who I am. But who do I owe my thanks to?"
"Oh, I'm Apple Bloom!" Apple Bloom introduced herself. "And this is my sister, Applejack! My brother, Big Mac, and our grandmother, Granny Smith!"
"Howdy!" The Apple Family exchanged greeting to the rabbit.
"Well, howdy partners!" Bugs Bunny returned the greeting, doing his best impression of a cowboy. "Pleasure to be meetin' y'all!"
The apple family and friends in the room, couldn't help but laugh at the rabbit's antic.
"Yer a funny bunny, aren't ya?" Applejack chuckled.
"Well, of course! He's Bugs Bunny!" Pinkie Pie chirped. "What do you expect? Oh!" Pinkie held her hand out for a handshake. "Name's Pinkie Pie! Party is my game, and making people laugh is my aim!"
"Ooh! A party gal!" Bugs Bunny smiled as he shook hands with Pinkie Pie. "Been awhile since I last met one."
Pinkie Pie then proceeded to introduce the rest of the gang, "And this is Twilight Sparkle! But we call her, Sci-Fi Twi. And this is Rarity, and her little sister, Sweetie Belle. Rainbow Dash, and her little mentee, Scootaloo. And you already got yourself acquainted with Fluttershy!"
"Uh, yeah...acquainted," Bugs commented, while noticing Fluttershy looking like she was about to explode with excitement, based on how big her smile was.
"Don't take it the wrong way," Flash Sentry whispered to Bugs Bunny. "She loves animals, especially rabbits."
"Good to know, doc," Bugs nodded. "And you are?"
"Flash Sentry," The young man smiled. "Pleased to meet you!"
"Likewise."
After Flash Sentry's introduction, Juniper Montage came up to the rabbit, with Wallflower Blush in tow.
"Hey! I'm Juniper Montage," Juniper greeted. "And this is my friend, Wallflower Blush!"
“Hey…” Wallflower greeted, quietly.
“She’s a girl of few words,” Juniper whispered, with a wink towards Bugs Bunny, who simply nodded in acknowledgement. “Also…CAN WE HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH, PLEASE?” She asked, holding out a pen and notebook, opened to an empty page.
Bugs Bunny obliged as he took Juniper’s pen and went ahead, signing his name on the page.
“Well, I think that’s everyone in the room,” Pinkie Pie said, looking around the room.
“So now that ya know who we are,” Applejack began. “Can ya tell us what you were doing here to begin with, Bugs?”
“Yeah, last I check, aren’t you supposed to be, say…at Warner Bros?” Rainbow Dash added, while whispering, "And not a real living cartoon rabbit?"
“Well, even a cartoon rabbit, like me, needed some R&R, now and then,” Bugs Bunny answered. “I was on my way to Pismo Beach, but I—“
“Made another wrong turn at Albuquerque, and you landed smack dab in the middle of Sweet Apple Acres, when we found you!” Pinkie Pie finished, much to the rabbit’s amazement.
“Uh…yeah,” Bugs Bunny confirmed. “That...”
“Eh, what else is new?” Pinkie Pie shrugged.
“...Anyway," Bugs Bunny began. "It's nice to make your acquaintance and all. But can you all tell me exactly where I am?"
"You're in Canterlot!" Applejack answered. "And I hate to say it, Bugs, but you're nowhere near this...Pismo Beach of yours."
"Yeah, you're kinda off by about, say, halfway across the state?" Rainbow Dash added, pointing their location on the map.
"Gosh. Ain't I a stinker?" Bugs asked rhetorically, as he got up and was about to walk away. "Well, sorry again for popping in, unannounced. But I'd better get going."
"Go?" Fluttershy asked. "Go where?"
"With luck, besides my lucky rabbit foot, Pismo Beach, or somewhere.
"But, ya just got here! Couldn't ya stay for dinner?" Apple Bloom pleaded, with wide, puppy eyes.
Unable to resist the little girl's puppy-eyed charms, Bugs Bunny relented, "Well...maybe it wouldn't hurt to check out dis place, while I'm 'ere," He shrugged.
With that, Apple Bloom let out an excited squeal as she, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle crowded around Bugs Bunny and wrapped him in a group hug. However, the celebration was cut short, when a breaking news was announced on the TV, in the room.
"Breaking story! Canterlot City is in utter disarray as chaos runs loose in the streets!" The reporter announced, before cutting to what appeared to be a live footage of the current news. "The footage you are seeing shows what appears to be a a streak of black, bouncing and vandalizing our beloved city. The police are baffled as they continued to further investigate this strange phenomenon."
The news quickly cuts to another reporter, reporting live from the scene, "With me is a victim of these random shenanigans that have recently plaguing our city, out of the blue," The reporter began. "Miss Vignette Valencia. You were in the process of taking another selfie for your social media account when, what happened to you?"
The reporter held his microphone towards Vignette, who stood with a look of disdain, and a mustache painted on her lips.
"I was just about to take a picture of me, with one of Flanksy's graffiti, when this streak of black came whooping and hollering out of nowhere and painted a mustache on me..." VIgnette grumbled. "It was awful! I've gone from BMBB (Be Myself But Better) to BMBR (Be Myself But RIDICULOUS)!"
"This reporter couldn't agree more," The reporter agreed.
"Hey Twilight!" A familiar talking dog barked, with a mustache on his face. "Check out my awesome mustache!"
"AH!!! It talks!" A random dude pointed at Spike.
"Eh...friend of yours?" Bugs Bunny asked Sci-Fi Twi.
Somewhere in the city, a little black duck was whooping and bouncing out on the streets, working up a riot, painting mustaches on people faces and advertisements. Not too far behind him, an anthropomorphic pig in police uniform was giving chase.
"Da-Dee-Duh-Dee-Duh-Daffy! Stop this schena-shuna-shun-Stop this madness at once!" The pig stammered.
"Ha ha ha ha! Don't let it worry you, skipper," The duck quacked. "I'm just a crazy, darn-fool duck!" With that, the duck kicked his legs in a wacky dance, as he resumes whooping and bouncing away, "Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo!"
Equestria Girls: It's Showtime – Looney Tunes
Somewhere in the city, on his way to his office, a menacing businessman was behind the wheel, engaged in a conversation with one of his employees, via a built-in phone, in his car.
“Another attempt to buy off Camp Everfree to convert into a spa resort has failed,” The man grumbled. “Another setback that will cost us $10,000 in interests payments alone.”
“Not necessarily, sir,” An employee replied from the other end of the call. “We’ve just convinced Equestria Land to sign a contract with us. I’m positive we can proceed as planned, on the reconstruction of the theme park.”
“Well, good,” The businessman sighed. “It’s good to have a backup plan, to say the least…”
“Yes, sir,” The employee replied. “Oh! Uh, Mr. Filthy Rich, sir? How close are you?”
“I’m just passing Sugarcube Corner, why?”
“I, uh…Just don’t shoot the messenger, but…you might not want to look at our new billboard.”
"Why? What happened to our bill..."
Filthy Rich looked up and immediately found his answer. There, painted over his face, on a large billboard, is a ridiculous oversized mustache. And thousands of people were all laughing at him.
"What the…" Filthy Rich exclaimed, not amused.
Meanwhile, after seeing the latest news broadcast, the Equestria Girls, and friends, including Bugs Bunny, raced away into the big city.
"So uh...what's the rush?" Bugs Bunny asked.
"There's trouble in the city, Bugs," Rainbow Dash answered. "And we're gonna put a stop to it!"
"Just like how we always do!" Pinkie Pie added, with a chirp and a blast of confetti.
Bugs Bunny looked at the Rainbooms with piqued interest, “You goils are superheroes, or something?” He asked.
"Technically, we're more 'magical,' per say," Sci-Fi Twi explained. "But, in a way, yeah. We're kinda superheroes."
"You don't say," Bugs Bunny replied, as he continued to chew the fat, or in his case, carrot. "So, uh. What're your powers? How do you go all super? Back in the day, when I need to be a super rabbit, I just eat some super-powered carrots."
"We've got magic geodes," Applejack answered, showing the rabbit the necklace around her neck. "One touch, and boom! It's magic time!"
"Magic geodes?" Bugs repeated.
"Trust me, Bugs," Flash Sentry spoke up, as he and Juniper, Wallflower, and the CMCs tagged along. "You wouldn't want to miss this."
"If you say so."
At last, the friends all arrived in the city, to find utter chaos.
"EGAD!" Sci-Fi Twi exclaimed.
"Oh! Oh dear goodness!" Fluttershy gasped.
"What a mess!" Rarity added.
Everywhere the girls looked, a lot of people had mustaches painted on their faces, and so many billboards and posters had mustaches drawn on them as well. Even a pedestrian crossing sign had a white mustache painted on its head.
"What happened here?" Apple Bloom asked.
"Twilight!" A familiar voice barked, to which the Rainbooms and friends looked to see a little purple and green dog, running their way, with a mustache on his face.
"Spike!" Sci-Fi Twi exclaimed, scooping the dog up into her arms. "Are you okay? What happened?"
"Yeah, I'm okay," Spike barked. "I was just chasing some squirrels and doing...doggy business, when all of a sudden, I heard a strange noise and something brushed against my face. And voila! I've got a mustache!"
"Did you at least see who it was?" Twilight asked.
"I didn't get a good look. I only heard what sounded like this: Whoo-hoo, whoo-hoo, whoo-hoo!" Spike explained, doing his best impression of the assailant's sound.
"Daffy?" Bugs Bunny exclaimed. "You mean, Daffy's here?"
"Uh...yeah," Spike said uneasily. "And who are you?" He asked the rabbit.
"Spike, this is Bugs Bunny," Sci-Fi Twi introduced. "Bugs, this is my dog, Spike. As you can see, he talks."
"Nice to meet ya!" Bugs smiled, shaking paws with Spike.
"Uh, likewise," Spike replied.
At that very moment, a certain wacky, daffy duck came bouncing by, whooping out of his mind, "Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo! Whoo-hoo!"
"Whoa! Did you see that?" Apple Bloom asked her friends.
"Yeah, I saw that!" Scootaloo confirmed.
"It's Daffy Duck!" Sweetie Belle added.
Not too far behind, a familiar pig was giving chase, "D-D-D-Daffy! Stop!" Porky stuttered, before he paused to catch his breath.
"Porky?" Bugs Bunny exclaimed.
"B-B-B-Bugs?!" Porky Pig stuttered, equally as surprised as the rabbit.
"PORKY PIG?!!" The CMCs cheered, excitedly. "It's a Looney Tunes reunion! The original trio who put the 'Looney' in 'Tunes!'" The three younger girls exclaimed, together letting out their inner fangirls.
"B-B-B-Bugs! I-I can't b-b-believe it! You're here!" Porky Pig stammered.
"I should say the same to you, Porks," Bugs replied. "What are you and Daffy up to dis time?"
"I-I-I-It's not my fault!" Porky Pig stammered in his defense. "D-D-Daffy and I were just going about our day, wh-wh-wh-when there w-w-was a great big flash of light, and we-we-we-we we're here!"
"Huh? Whoa, whoa, wait. Back up," Bugs began. "What was that about a bright light?"
Unfortunately, before their conversation could continue, off in the distance, the sound of a woman screaming, and Daffy Duck's whooping was heard.
"Uh, fellas?" Applejack began. "As much as I'd like to see a heartfelt reunion between two friends all, but can we get back to the task at hands? Concerning your duck friend?"
"Oh! B-B-B-But of course, Miss uh..."
"Applejack," Applejack introduced herself.
"Pl-Pl-Ple-It's nice to meet ya, Applejack," Porky Pig greeted.
"Enough talk!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. "We've got a duck to catch!" With that, the athletic girl activated her geode and sped off in a streak of rainbow colors, leaving her friends in the dust.
"G-G-G-G-Gosh! Sh-Sh-Sh-She's fast!" Porky Pig exclaimed.
Bugs Bunny whistled in awe, "Okay! I'm convinced," He said to the Rainbooms.
"What did I tell you, Bugs?" Flash grinned, nudging on the rabbit's shoulder.
"Anyway, girls," Applejack began, as she lead the charge. "Let's go!"
"Yeah!" With that, the rest of the Rainbooms ran after their speedy friend, with Porky Pig in tow.
In the meantime, Bugs Bunny was left with Flash Sentry, Juniper, Wallflower, and the CMCs, watching the Rainbooms work their magic. Bugs was casually munching on a carrot, when he noticed a child, with a mustache painted on his face, staring at the rabbit, in awe.
“Eh, what’s up…” The child fainted, before Bugs could finish. “…doc?”
"Uh, hehe," Apple Bloom chuckled. "I don't think everyone's too ready for a living cartoon rabbit in broad daylight."
Meanwhile, Daffy Duck was being his wacky, zany, and classic looney self, as he continues his rampage around the city, painting mustaches on every person he sees.
Before he could continue, however, he was caught off-guard, when someone grabbed him by the wrist.
"Whoo-hoo!" Daffy exclaimed in alarm, as he turned to see his captor. "Hey, ea-th-y on the merchandi-ths there! That'-ths no way to treat an artisth!" The duck protested, in a slobbery, exaggerated lisp, spitting into Rainbow Dash's face.
"Ew! Say it, not spray it," Rainbow Dash groaned, before she began. "Alright, duck! I don't know what you're up to, but whatever game this is. Just stop it."
"Sth-top?!" Daffy Duck shouted. "But why? We were just-th getting sth-arted! Whoo-hoo!" Daffy said, as he drew a mustache on Rainbow Dash's face.
"Ugh!" Rainbow grunted, as she wiped the mustache clean off her face, and glowered at the duck. "What's your deal, anyway? Why are you doing this?"
"Why?" Daffy asked, before he began to recite a poetry:
"We've all got a mission in life-th,
I'm justh wild about Harry.
Sth-ience is sthome folks' calling,
"WHOO-HOO! WHOO-HOO! WHOO-HOO!!!" Once again, Daffy Duck whoops and hollers at the top of his lungs, as he bounces all over town, to continue with his zany antics.
"Get back here you duck!" Rainbow Dash grunted, as she activates her geode and gave chase.
Benny Hill Chase Music
Daffy Duck, however, was surprisingly fast, if not, slippery than Rainbow Dash had thought he'd be. Of course, being a cartoon duck, this shouldn't come off as a surprise. Daffy Duck is perhaps one of the few living beings who could probably give Pinkie Pie a run for her crazy money.
Daffy Duck went into an alleyway, where Rainbow Dash followed him in. Only to be hit in the face by a cardboard, followed by the touch of wet paint brushes, stroking across her lips. Daffy Duck had smacked her face with a mustache stencil cutout board, and painted a mustache on her face again. With another of his taunting whooping laugh, Daffy Duck zipped away, with an even more irritated Rainbow Dash following suit.
Rainbow Dash was later chasing Daffy Duck around a water fountain. Both duck and speedy girl were running around in circles, until it gets to the point that Rainbow Dash became a blur of multicolors, as she keeps up dust. However, she failed to realize that Daffy had given her the slip, by posing as one of the fountain's statues. Eventually, Rainbow Dash had run herself dizzy and collapsed on the ground.
Seizing his chance, Daffy Duck took his leave, only to quickly confront the rest of the Rainbooms, and Porky Pig.
"D-D-D-Daffy! Y-Y-You gotta-" But Porky was interrupted when Daffy painted a mustache on his snout. "Y-Y-You gotta–" Porky wiped off the mustache, only for it to be quickly redrawn by Daffy. "Now CUT THAT OUT!" Porky shouted, finally having enough.
"Okay!" With that, Daffy pulled out a rustic saw. "Where's-th the pain?"
The girls and Porky Pig were both frighten at the sudden revelation.
"Uh-Uh-Uh, wait a minute, Daffy!" Porky stammered, as he backed away in fright, from the duck. "Le-Le-Le-Let's not be too hasty! P-P-P-Put that saw down! The kids are watching! HELP!"
"Whoo-hoo!" Daffy Duck laughed as he chased after Porky Pig, like a mad doctor.
Thankfully, Porky was saved from the gruesome fate, when Rarity quickly conjured a wall of crystal shields, and used them to cage Daffy in a box.
"Phew!" Porky Pig panted heavily, with Fluttershy holding him close. "Th-Th-That was close!"
"Oh, you poor pig," Fluttershy cooed. "I can't imagine how frightening that was."
"D-D-D-Daffy's always been...well, D-D-D-Daffy," Porky Pig began. "B-B-B-But he seems to have gotten c-c-c-completey b-b-bonk-b-b-bonk-b-b-He's gotten daffier than usual!"
"That wasn't his usual daffy self?" Rainbow Dash asked, pointing to Rarity, having a hard time containing Daffy Duck in her crystals.
The duck had taken out a glass cutter, and cut his way out of his crystal prison.
"Why you little!" Rarity exclaimed in outrage, at the fact one of her beautiful crystals had been cut.
To add insult to injury, Daffy had painted a mustache on her face.
"Whoo-hoo!" He laughed, before he zipped away.
Twilight tried to use her telekinesis to catch the duck, but Daffy was too quick and was bouncing at the speed of a runaway bouncing ball, the girl couldn't concentrate on her target.
"Stop moving!" Sci-Fi Twi grunted.
"I got him!" Applejack shouted, when she pounced from the side to tackle the duck.
"Whoo-hoo!" Daffy quacked, before he ducked his head down, causing Applejack to fly overhead, and crash into Sci-Fi Twi.
"Sorry Twi..." Applejack apologized.
"You're okay, AJ," Sci-Fi Twi groaned.
"Well, ain't you the cute couplesth?” Daffy joked, as he draws mustaches on both Sci-Fi Twi and Applejack’s face. “I hereby dub ye, bride and—“
“HI-YAH!” Pinkie Pie shouted, hurdling sprinkle bombs at Daffy, which exploded into dusty colorful clouds, upon impact.
“WHOO-HOO!!” Daffy Duck exclaimed, startled by the explosions. “Isth it the Fourth of July already?”
“Nope!” Pinkie Pie chirped. “But it’s just as colorful as fireworks. No?”
Resuming the task at hands, Pinkie Pie lunged at Daffy. But the duck, too had given Pinkie the slip, and ended up getting a mustache painted on her face.
“Whoo-hoo! Hold your seats-th folks-th!” Daffy quacked. “Here we go again! Whoo-hoo!”
“Excuse me, Mr. Duck?” Fluttershy called to Daffy, but to no avail. “Hello? Excuse me!”
But it was no use. Either Fluttershy’s call was too quiet, or the Duck hardly cared, as he bounced away, leaving the humiliated Rainbooms behind.
End of Chase Music
At that moment, Bugs Bunny arrived, with Flash Sentry and friends following.
“Eh, what’s up doc?” Bugs Bunny asked. “Any luck with Daffy?”
“N-N-N-Nope,” Porky Pig shook his head.
“Who spiked Daffy’s coffee?” Rainbow Dash asked. “He’s faster than he seems, on TV!”
“Oh, b-b-b-believe me,” Porky Pig stuttered. “He d-d-d-don’t drink coffee.”
“Doesn’t help much,” Applejack replied. “He’s faster than a runaway bull.”
“And slippery than a bar of soap!” Pinkie added.
“Not to mention completely cuckoo!” Fluttershy commented.
“That duck’s crazy,” Flash Sentry commented, which he soon regrets.
“You telling me?” Daffy Duck asked, jump scaring Flash, from behind a garbage can, and honked his nose.
Soon, Daffy Duck took off running, before he broke the fourth wall and explained himself to the readers:
“I’m not crazy. I just don’t give a darn!”
With that, Daffy Duck, once again laughed out loud, and ran off, into the city to create more troubles.
“I can’t even get him to calm down, or sit still long enough to use my Stare on him,” Fluttershy sighed. “One look, and I’d be able to give him a good scolding.”
“And just how are we even going to get him to sit still, long enough to catch him?” Juniper asked.
“Well, I have an idea,” Bugs Bunny brought up. “But first, where’s the nearest costume store?”
“Oh! A costume, darling?” Rarity smiled, before she pulled a coat rack, from the side.
No one knows where the coat rack came from. But one thing’s for sure, about Rarity, the young fashionista always has a set of costumes at the ready, for any situation.
Later, Porky Pig was wearing a hunter’s outfit, holding a prop gun, with Puppy Spike posing as his hunting dog.
“Th-Th-Th-This feels like de-de-de-Deja Vu,” Porky Pig stuttered.
“Reminds me of the old days of black and white cartoons,” Bugs Bunny shared the pig’s nostalgia. “Funny how you were a hunting us, and dat’s how you started me and Daffy’s career.”
“Su-Su-Speaking of Daffy,” Porky Pig pointed to the black duck, coming their way. “Here he comes now!”
“Ok, Porky,” Bugs Bunny began. “Action!”
Doing like they had rehearsed, Porky Pig held up a sign that states his business.
Spike also held up a sign that reads: “Ditto.”
On cue, Bugs Bunny does his usual greeting, “Eh, what’s up doc?”
“Rabbit!” Spike barked, pointing his nose at Bugs Bunny.
Porky Pig stammered as he gets into character, “Now I got you. You, you wabbit!” Porky Pig then mutters to himself, “S-S-Sorry Elmer. Got carried away,” Turning his attention, back to Bugs, Porky asked, “Any l-l-last words?”
“Yeah,” Bugs chewed on his carrot and casually began. “I’ve got three, to be exact. It’s duck season!”
Upon overhearing that last statement, from Bugs Bunny, in the blink of an eye, Daffy's wacky, looney, zany demeanor vanished. Something snapped. He scowled, turning his head, and glowered at the rabbit. He was clearly not going to let Bugs get away with that.
“That, sth-ir, is-th an in-mitigated frab-rication!” Daffy Duck shouted, as he ran over to confront Bugs Bunny. “It’s wabbit season!”
“Duck season,” Bugs argued.
“Wabbit sth-eas-th-on.”
“Duck season.”
“Wabbit sth-eas-th-on.”
“Duck season.”
“Wabbit sth-eas-th-on.”
Bugs Bunny winked, while secretly giving his new friends a thumbs up, behind his back.
“Wabbit season!” Bugs said.
“Duck sth-eas-th-on!” Daffy argued.
“Wabbit season!”
“Duck sth-eas-th-on! I sth-ay it’sth duck sth-eas-th-on! And I sth-ay fire!”
“GET HIM!!!”
With that, the Rainbooms, Porky Pig, and the rest of their friends all piled on Daffy Duck, in a cloudy struggle and blur of arms and legs, until they all emerged, with Daffy, telekinetically, held in place, by Twilight’s magic.
“I got him!” Sci-Fi Twi grunted. “But he’s really trying to break free!”
As an added safety measure, Daffy’s arms and legs were locked in place, by Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Flash Sentry, and the CMCs.
“He’s…really…slippery!” Applejack grunted.
“He’s…stronger…than…he looks,” Flash groaned.
“Let me loose-th you fools-th!” Daffy Duck protested. “This-th ain’t no way to treat a c-th-elebrity duck!”
“Okay, Fluttershy,” Rainbow Dash groaned. “Work your magic on him!”
Without hesitating, Fluttershy glared her angry eyes at Daffy. With that, the duck immediately ceased his struggles, as he finds himself helpless, under the hypnotic stare, from Fluttershy.
“You listen good, you naughty little duck!” Fluttershy snarled, in an angry tone, like that of an angry mom. “I don’t care if you are Daffy, or if you’re just some cartoon character, out of a Saturday show, or whatever. But nobody LIKES having mustaches paint on their faces, and PROPERTY! So, if you know what’s good for you, then you ought to clean up your messes, right this instant, and then THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU’VE JUST DONE! Do I make myself CLEAR?!”
Turning white as a sheet, Daffy nodded and whimpered, “Yes-th, yes-th, ma’m! Or lady. Or whatever.”
“Good. Now CLEAN UP YOUR MESS!”
”…Mother.”
With that, Daffy Duck ran away, doing as he was told to do, and cleans up the mess he made.
Twilight turned to Rainbow Dash, “Better go and make sure he does as he was told,” Sci-Fi Twi advised, before she turned to Pinkie Pie, and Applejack. “And you two go along, just in case.”
Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack all exchange agreements, before they went off, to follow Daffy.
“I-I-In the mea-mea-mea-what do we do now?” Porky asked.
“Well, I don’t know about you,” Sci-Fi Twi began. “But after all that chasing and magic, with Daffy, has made me a little hungry. How about we go back to Sugarcube Corner and get something to eat and drink? Maybe we’ll talk more there.”
“Sounds like a plan to me!” Bugs Bunny nodded.
“C-C-C-Count m-m-me, Uh ditto,” Porky stammered agreement.
“Yay!”
With that, the friends were all on their way to the said facility.
“I better text Rainbow, Pinkie, and Applejack to let them know where we are,” Sci-Fi Twi said, as she proceeded to text the messages.
“B-B-Bugs,” Porky began. “C-C-Can you tell me where we are?”
“Porky, my friend,” Bugs Bunny began as he gestures to the entire city and suburbs. “Welcome to Canterlot!”
“DON’T PLAY GAMES WITH ME!” Filthy Rich yelled, as he talks to someone on the phone. “So, refusing me to build a new spa resort in place of your camp wasn’t enough. You decided to go out of your way and make me look like a fool, by drawing a mustache on my billboard, as an act of…of…defiance?”
Filthy Rich smirked deviously, as he clenched a fist in his free hand.
“Well, you have no idea who you are dealing with, Gloriosa Daisy. You want to play games with me? I’ll play games with you.”
“Uh, sir?”
Filthy Rich looked up, to see one of his workers, standing at the doorway to his office, holding a tablet.
“I gotta go,” Filthy Rich finished his phone call. “But this conversation isn’t over!” With an angry slam of his phone, Filthy looked up to his employee. “Yes? What is it?”
“You might want to have a look at this, sir…”
The employee walked over to his boss’s desk, and holds up his tablet, revealing a security footage of Daffy Duck, swinging across Filthy Rich’s face on a billboard, and painting the mustache.
“What is this?” Filthy Rich asked. “Who is that?”
“We’re still looking into it, sir,” The worker replied. “But so far, we’ve confirmed that the perpetrator is short, dressed in a black duck costume.”
“A black duck?” Filthy Rich glowered. “You’re telling me…a duck made a fool of me?”
“Uh, no…that’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying that it’s a person in a duck costume who is committing a fowl play,” The employee chortled at his own joke. “Get it? Fowl? Play? Because ducks are water fowls and…”
One angry scowl from Filthy Rich was enough to silence the employee, who composed himself.
“The police are investigating, as we speak, sir,” The employee said. “We’ll find out who vandalized your billboard, sir.”
“Then get out there, and bring me results!” Filthy Rich ordered.
“Yes sir,” With that, the employee took his leave, leaving Filthy Rich to fume.
“Make a fool out of me, huh, duck?” Filthy glowered.
Equestria Girls: It's Showtime – Looney Tunes
Catching Up and Getting Settled
Later that day, Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig followed the Rainbooms and friends to Sugarcube Corner, where they all got some drinks and snacks. Thankfully, the sweet shop was quiet. There weren't many people to cause a fuss, upon seeing Bugs and Porky. The friends all took this opportunity to get to know one another.
The Rainbooms and friends were in the middle of a conversation, regarding the time when they first went to Camp Everfree and discovered the magic geodes that blessed them with incredible powers. Needless to say, Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig were amazed.
"Wow! You girls went to this Camp Everfree, and y'all found magic geodes that gave each of you superpowers?" Bugs Bunny asked.
"We prefer magic if you please," Sci-Fi Twi stated.
"But superpower works too," Fluttershy nodded.
"Hmmmm. Six teenagers gaining superpowers and becoming superheroes," Bugs Bunny munched on his carrot. "Where have I heard that story before?" He secretly asked the readers.
"Well, a-a-a-a-after seeing you all in a-in a-in a-after today, I b-b-believe you," Porky Pig stuttered. "I think it's m-m-m-magical, with what you girls do."
"Aw, thank you, Porky!" Fluttershy smiled.
"I'd have to agree with Porky," Bugs added. "In the old days, whenever I have to go super, all I had to do was eat some super carrots to become a super rabbit! Y'know, able to fly, leap over the highest buildings, etc., etc."
"Yeah, we get the idea, Bugs," Scootaloo commented. "As members of the Canterlot Movie Club, we've watched a lot of your cartoons."
"And they were good!" Sweetie Belle squealed.
"Oh, but yours are good too, Porky!" Apple Bloom added.
"Aw, it was nothing," Porky Pig blushed.
"Hmph! Nithe to thsee you all getting puh-puh-praithesth!" A familiar voice grumbled, to which everyone turned to see Daffy Duck, walking into the store, with Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie following.
"Well, look who finally joined the party!" Bugs commented, welcoming Daffy and the three girls.
"Took us forever!" Rainbow Dash muttered.
"But...we cleaned up every mustaches, off of every faces in Canterlot!" Pinkie Pie chirped, before a certain purple dog poked his head out of her hair.
"I liked my new mustache..." Spike whimpered.
"Thome people have no appreciation for the fine artsth!" Daffy huffed, before Applejack shoots a sternful glare at him.
"I'd be careful if I were you, duck," Applejack threatened. "Unless you want another look from her!" She pointed to Fluttershy, with the same scowl written on her face.
"Uh...let'th all be thivilized here, alright? Eh hehe," Daffy chuckled nervously, as he took a seat besides Porky.
"So, now that Daffy's cleaned up his mess," Pinkie Pie began, reaching into her hair and pulled out a bucket of popcorns. "What's going on? It looks like you were all in the middle of something!"
"Oh we were just getting to know one another, darling," Rarity explained. "We've just finished telling Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig about our time at Camp Everfree."
"AW! That's one of my favorite memories!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed in delight. "Good times. The arts and crafts we made together, the campfire songs we sang together, the memories, the magics..."
"Pinkie," Applejack calmed the pink girl. "I think they get it."
"And after seeing how you girls worked together to capture Daffy, I believe it," Bugs Bunny added. "Though, if you don't mind me asking, what were your powers?"
"Well, as if you've just seen, I'm clearly the fastest girl alive!" Rainbow Dash boasted, activating her geode, making her run in a blur of multicolors. "Rainbow Dash is the name. Speed is my game."
"Eh-Eh-Eh-Incredible!" Porky Pig clapped his hands, with Bugs following his example.
"Big deal, she's fast," Daffy Duck rolled his eyes. "Anyone can run fast."
"What about you girls?" Bugs turned to the remaining Rainbooms. "What are your powers?"
"Well, as you've just seen," Sci-Fi Twi began, as she activated her geode, causing her hands to glow in a sparkling aura. "I can do magic. Though, telekinesis seems to be more of my specialty."
"I'm super strong, so I can do a lot of heavy lifting," Applejack stated.
"My special power is to conjure crystal shields, darling," Rarity smiled, proudly showing off an example, before making it disappear.
"I talk to animals," Fluttershy whispered.
"I MAKE SPRINKLE BOMBS!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed.
The six Rainbooms and friends all looked towards Bugs, Daffy, and Porky, awaiting to hear their response.
"M-M-My!" Porky exclaimed. "You girls are superheroes!"
"Hehe, I guess in a way, we kinda are," Applejack admitted.
"Yeah! We're awesome!" Rainbow Dash smirked.
"Sunset would say the same thing..." Pinkie Pie muttered sadly, which didn't go unheard.
"Uh, who?" Bugs asked.
"Uh...nothing," Pinkie replied.
Though curious, Bugs decided to shrug and let it slide for the time being, "If you say so."
"Anyway, now that we've told you a bit about ourselves," Sci-Fi Twi began. "Why don't you boys tell us about yourselves?"
"Yeah, like how did you all get here?" Rainbow Dash asked. "No offense, but...shouldn't you guys be...in pictures?"
"I'm just as confused as you are, Dash," Bugs Bunny admitted. "Up til now, I thought it's just another typical day for me," Turning to Porky Pig, Bugs asked, "What's your story, Porky? Didn't you mentioned something about a bright light?"
"L-L-Light?" Porky stammered, before he remembered, "Oh yes! Th-Th-That's right!"
"Light?" Apple Bloom asked. "What light?"
"You mean, what kind of light?" Scootaloo guessed.
"A v-v-v-very br-br-bright, blinding k-k-kind of light," Porky stuttered. "I-I-I-It all started this morning, w-w-when I r-r-r-received this l-l-l-large te-tele-tele-a large flatscreen TV, on my porch. B-B-B-But I didn't order it!"
"You received a large TV that you didn't even order?" Juniper asked.
"Nope," Porky shook his head.
"So what did you do with it?" Flash asked.
"Well, I d-d-did checked for any ad-ad-adresses, or n-n-n-names, it was meant to be delivered to," Porky explained. "B-B-But there was no postal stamp. No letters. No return l-l-label."
"Sounds pretty suspicious, if ya ask me," Bugs commented.
"Nobody wasth athking, rabbit!" Daffy quacked.
"So then what happened?" Fluttershy asked Porky.
"Well, I took it into the house, to investigate, when...he showed up," Porky pointed to Daffy.
"How wath I thuppothed to know that TV would thend usth here?" Daffy shrugged, slobbering with his usual lisp, in his defense. "I thaw the TV! I thought we were going to have a movie night! I got the popcornsth and popsth and everything for a big football night!"
"Ooh! I do like a good movie night!" Pinkie Pie said, in agreement, with Daffy. "Especially when I get to wear those funny hats, where you put sodas on the side of your head, and you drink them through funny straws!"
"Pinkie! Stay on topic," Applejack said sternly.
"So, what did you do?" Fluttershy asked Porky and Daffy.
"I-I-I didn't do anything!" Porky Pig replied. "I went into the ki-ki-kitchen, when there was a b-b-big flash of light. A-A-An-And the next thing I know, me and Daffy were in the city. And you all know the rest."
"So then, what did you do, Daffy?" Fluttershy asked the duck, who feigned shock.
"My word! Are you accuthing me, an innocent black duck who wasth justh looking forward to movie night?" Daffy huffed. "Dethpicable!"
"Now take it easy, Daffy," Bugs calmed the duck. "Take it easy, Fluttershy was just askin' what had happened, that's all. And maybe she can figure out a way to get us all back to our world."
"Fine," Daffy muttered. "All I did wasth pressthing on a remote control. Y'know, to sthcroll through the channelsth, looking for thomething fun to watch. But the thupid remote wasthn't even working. The battery musth be dead. But I pressthed a button, and WOOOSSSSHHH!!! My whole life justh flasthed before my very eyes! And for a moment, I felt like I wath my classic, younger, starry Daffy self again! Or at leasth I wath until SHE thared the living daylight out of me..."
Daffy glowered towards Fluttershy, who looked both ashamed of herself and disapproval towards Daffy.
"Well, ya did vandalize and defaced a lot of properties, Daffy," Bugs Bunny quipped, with a munch of his carrot. "So, I'd say it was pretty justified on Fluttershy's part."
"Whatever," Daffy rolled his eyes. "But now that we've told them the whole story, how do we get back? Hmmm?"
The three Looney Tunes turned towards the Rainbooms and friends, hoping for an answer. But found none.
"We've seen magical lightning storms," Rainbow Dash noted.
"We've once had to save our school from a power-hungry she-demon megalomaniac...twice," Applejack added. "No offense," She said to Sci-Fi Twi.
"None taken," Sci-Fi Twi replied, which got the Looney Tunes interested.
"We've found magic portals to another world of talking ponies and magical creatures, and back," Pinkie Pie added.
"Or an enchanted mirror," Juniper Montage stated.
"A magic stone that steals your memories," Wallflower Blush muttered.
"A trio of sirens, with glowing stones, and hypnotic songs turns friends into enemies," Apple Bloom said on behalf of her friends.
"A rampaging robot!" Flash Sentry added. See Cheer You On
"G-G-Gosh, we're definitely not in our world anymore," Porky Pig commented, to Bugs and Daffy.
"And I thought my vacation couldn't get anymore interesting," Bugs Bunny added.
"The list can go on and on," Applejack ended. "But we've never once had to dealt with characters, or creatures, coming from another dimension, and helping them get back to their world."
"You mean we're STUCK HERE?!!!" Daffy exclaimed, in a hammy horror tone.
"No, no, calm down, Daffy!" Sweetie Belle assured. "We didn't say that. Right, Rarity?"
"Of course not, darling," Rarity agreed. "You know what they say. When there's a will, there's a way!"
"Tho, you can help usth get back to our world?" Daffy asked.
"Well...I can't make any promises," Sci-Fi Twi replied. "But..." Looking towards the Looney Tunes present, and to her friends in the room, Sci-Fi Twi nodded, "Why not? Given to our past experiences, with loose Equestrian magic, an estimate of 87.565656% times of coming out on top and all. I'd say, the odds of us finding the answer would be...a yes?"
The Looney Tunes turned to the rest of their new Canterlot friends in the room, exchanging confusions, before they turned towards each other.
"I have no idea what the thmart girl justh thaid," Daffy said, slobbering.
"If I have to be honest," Bugs Bunny began. "It sounds to me that they'll find a way to get us back to our world. So, what have we got to lose?"
"I-I-I'm with Bugs on this one," Porky added. "B-B-B-Besides, they're a nice bunch. A-A-And they've got magic."
"Tho what?" Daffy Duck asked. "We've thseen lotsth of magic, before."
"And one of 'em was a witch," Bugs added. "And a genie you had offended into shrinking you to the size of a pearl."
"It wasth my treasure and you know it!" Daffy Duck quacked.
"If you say so," Bugs shrugged, before he asked, "Until we find a way home, where are we gonna stay?"
It didn't take long, before Fluttershy eagerly volunteered, "Ooh! You can all stay at my place!"
Before Bugs, Daffy, and Porky could answer, however, Apple Bloom and her friends spoke up their opinion.
“No fair, Fluttershy!” Apple Bloom frowned.
“Why do they get to stay with you?” Sweetie Belle joined in.
“Now girls, settle down,” Applejack advised to the CMCs, but to no avail.
“Why couldn’t Bugs or Porky stay with me?” Scootaloo asked.
“You?!” Sweetie Belle exclaimed. “Why would they want to be with you? They should stay with me and Rarity!”
“Bugs has already made his hole at Sweet Apple Acres,” Apple Bloom began. “So you two girls can have Porky. But Bugs stays with me and AJ!”
“And what am I?” Daffy Duck asked, being the odd one out. “Chopped livers?”
“STAY OUT OF THIS!” The CMCs shouted at Daffy, before they resumed arguing.
“They should stay with me and my aunts!” Scootaloo spatted. “I‘ve watched their cartoons more than either of you!”
“Nu-uh!” Sweetie Belle frowned. “Me and Rarity can treat Bugs and friends a lot better with our elegant hospitality.”
“If you can sew on pair of pants for Porky!” Apple Bloom countered. “But we grow tons of foods on our farm, beside apples. Bugs and Porky will like it on Sweet Apple Acres.”
“ENOUGH!” A loud voice shouted, startling the friends in the room. Even Bugs and two of his fellow cartoons can’t help but be startled.
All eyes turned towards Fluttershy, who scowled, with a clear look of disapproval written on her face.
“I’m very disappointed in you girls…” Fluttershy shook her head. “You’ve been together for how long, and this is how you treat your friends? Grow up! Act your own age! Need I remind you that after summer is over, your final year at CHS will begin. And are you seriously going to let Bugs Bunny and his friends be the cause of your division?”
The CMCs dipped their heads in shame, realizing how immature they were acting, in front of their sisters, friends, and guests.
“We’re sorry,” The CMCs apologized.
“We’re just big fans,” Apple Bloom frowned sadly.
“I understand,” Fluttershy replied. “But that’s no excuse to fight with one another. And besides, Bugs and his friends are going to need a place to stay for the night. They must be exhausted.”
“Yeah, even us cartoons need our beauty sleep,” Bugs Bunny stretched his arms out.
“Yes, we certainly do, don’t we?” Daffy asked rhetorically.
“Th-Th-Tha-That’s true,” Porky stuttered.
The CMCs still looked rather down, that their favorite cartoons won’t spend the night with them. Thankfully, their sisters reassured them.
“Don’t worry, Squirt,” Rainbow Dash comforted Scootaloo. “You’ll see them tomorrow.”
“Don’t take it too personal, Apple Bloom,” Applejack said. “Fluttershy will take good care of ‘em.”
“Indubitably,” Rarity added. “There’s no one in Canterlot who knows more about animals, than Fluttershy.”
This made the CMCs a little bit better.
“So, what’s the sleeping arrangement gonna be?” Bugs Bunny asked.
“Nice spread here!” Bugs Bunny commented, as he, Daffy, and Porky takes a look at their new surrounding.
Fluttershy’s house has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Butterflies, flowers, and beautiful birds decorated the walls, painted with beautiful woodlands, savanna, mountains.
Long story short, the atmosphere of Fluttershy’s home would make any animals feel at home.
Speaking of which, Porky Pig was looking at some pictures on the walls, to see momentous of Fluttershy, with scores of animals, big and small.
“Y-Y-You must be an an-an ani-an ani-you must like animals,” Porky Pig commented.
“Oh, I don’t just like animals,” Fluttershy smiled. “I love animals! From the biggest of elephants to the tiniest, cuddly little mouse,” She cooed.
At that moment, Bugs felt something tapping on his foot, to which he looked down to see a little white rabbit, with a distrusting scowl on his face.
“Oh, hey there little guy!” Bugs greeted the bunny. “Who are you?”
But the rabbit didn’t say a word. Instead, he just kept on shooting Bugs the same scowling expression.
“Hmmm, not the talkative type, are ya?” Bugs pondered. “Lemme guess. You’re Grumpy!”
The white rabbit appeared to flinch, before he vigorously shook his head in denial, and resume scowling.
“No, I guess not,” Bugs continued to guess. “Is it…Roger? You look like a Roger. You sorta remind me of a Roger!”
Again, the little rabbit shook his head.
“Hehe, ain’t I a stinker?” Bugs asked, as he continued to guess, “Uh is it Honey? Flopsy? Mopsy? Cotton-tail? Peter! It’s Peter, is it?”
The rabbit continued shaking his head in denial, if not irritation, before a peal of laughter was heard.
“I see you met, Angel!” Fluttershy smiled as she walked over and scooped up the said rabbit in her hands. “Bugs, meet my friend, Angel Bunny! Angel, this is Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, and Daffy Duck. They’re our guests.”
“Pleased to meet you!” Bugs greeted the rabbit. “Angel was definitely my next guess.”
“Yeah, right,” Daffy Duck huffed, while Angel rolled his eyes and hopped away.
“I-I-I-I don’t think he l-l-l-likes us very much,” Porky stuttered.
“He’s always like that, around strangers,” Fluttershy reassured. “He’ll warm up to you, once he gets used to you.”
Fluttershy guided the three boys around the house, before she showed them the guest room.
“Here’s the guest room,” Fluttershy said. “I usually keep it clean and tidy, in case my brother, Zephyr, decided to ‘drop in’ now and then. But I hope you boys will enjoy it.”
“Thanks, Fluttershy,” Bugs thanked the girl. “I’m sure we will.”
“Y-Y-Yes, th-th-thanks for l-l-letting…” Porky tried to properly thank Fluttershy for her hospitality, but as usual, was hindered by his stuttering.
“You’re very welcome, Porky!” Fluttershy giggled.
“Well, if I musth share a bed with these-th two, then I might as-th well make do,” Daffy huffed.
“Eh…what Daffy’s trying to say is thank you,” Bugs Bunny reassured to Fluttershy.
“Well, it’s getting late,” Fluttershy yawned. “We should all get some shut eyes. Good night.”
“Night Fluttershy!”
And like their kind hostess, the three Looney Tunes quickly went to sleep.
Though, both Daffy and Porky made it difficult — for Bugs — with their usual antics of hogging the blanket, spilling cups of water, and pestering question.
“I was-th justh wondering,” Daffy began. “If we came here from our world, then could sth-ome of our friends-th from back home have come here as-th well?”
“For Pete’s sake!” An irritated Bugs Bunny grumbled, before, out of thin air — a cartoon pocket dimension — he pulled out a jar of sleeping pills, and gave them for Daffy to drink, with a cup of water.
“Fine!” Daddy muttered. “Make me drink myself to sleep-puh, mister grumpy rabbit,” Daffy plopped the pill into his beak, gulping down a cup of water. “I don’t need this, y’know? Showstoppers like moi don’t—Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.”
In a heartbeat, Daffy Duck was out, like a bulb, cuddling up into a ball, on the floor, sucking his thumb.
“Finally,” Porky sighed in relief. “P-P-Peace and quiet.”
“Now let’s get some sleep,” Bugs Bunny yawned as he and Porky got back, under the cover.
Tomorrow will be a brand new day, and the start of a story of a lifetime.
Somewhere…
“I tawt I taw a putty tat!”
Equestria Girls: It's Showtime – Looney Tunes
“The black vandal, seen here on surveillance, has the city baffled, ” The news anchor reported.
“It was about this tall, ” A policeman described. “It was dark as the night, and moved like a… a… well, it was fast! ”
The news report then cuts to another witness, in which case a taxi driver.
“I was doing a 60, ” The taxi driver explained. “All of a sudden, this thing went ‘Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo!’ and zipped by me! ”
“That thing moved too fast to be a man or beast! ” Another witness explained.
“Is it human? Is it an animal? Or could there be more than one? ” The news reporter asked. “But one thing’s certain. This thing is loose in our fair city, and it has caused numerous property damage! ”
Footage of Filthy Rich’s billboard, with a mustache painted across his arrogant mug, is on full display on the news footage.
“I don’t know, ” A random civilian commented. “Looks like an improvement to me. ”
“ARGH!!!”
With a grunt, Filthy Rich angrily hurls his remote and completely smashes his flatscreen T.V. Smoke erupts from the broken glass, as Filthy Rich breathes in heavily.
“Make a fool out of me, will they?” Filthy muttered. “Soon as I find this… ‘black vandal’, whoever his name is, he’ll wish he hadn’t crossed paths with Filthy Rich!”
“Uh, Mr. Filthy Rich sir?” A voice spoke through the comm.
“WHAT?!” The man shouted, angrily pressing the comm.
“The police are here to speak with you, sir,” The staff replied.
“Well send them up!” Filthy Rich replied, facing the smashed T.V. “And get me a new flatscreen T.V. for my office. On the double!”
“Yes sir.”
The next morning, Fluttershy stirs awake to the sound of birds chirping. A tiny flock of colorful variety singing their morning tunes to start the day, basking under the beautiful rays of the sun. The light of which flows through her bedroom window, followed by a sweet aroma which tickles her nose.
“Hmm… pancakes…” Fluttershy yawned.
All at once, Fluttershy’s eyes turn wide as the realization hits her like bricks.
“Pancakes?” Fluttershy repeated, emerging from bed. “Who’s cooking?”
Slipping into her bunny slippers near the bed, Fluttershy proceeds to work her way down the stairs. Much to her surprise, she finds Bugs Bunny, humming a little tune while flipping pancakes.
“Mama’s little baby loves short’-nin’ short’-nin’, mama’s little baby loves short’-nin’ bread… ” Bugs hummed. “Here’s the last one!”
With one big whip of the spatula, the last of the pancakes flip high into the air and landing nimbly atop one another into one huge stack atop of a plate. The plate of which Porky Pig is currently carrying… or struggling to hold onto. The poor pig can barely keep all the pancakes from falling over.
“Wh-Wh-Wh-WHOA!” Porky Pig exclaimed. “It’s falling!”
“I got it! I got it!” Bugs called out.
Just as the stack starts to fall, Bugs quickly goes to work. Quick as a flash, he manages to catch all the pancakes falling in the air right before they hit the floor. Then tossing the pancakes out like frisbees, they land on several plates set on the table. Along with the pancakes, there is a bowl of salad, some freshly pressed orange juice, and a carton of milk.
“Phew! That was close…” Porky sighed in relief.
“Breakfast is served…”
It is then Bugs looks up and spots Fluttershy standing along the stairway.
“Morning Fluttershy! Sleep well?”
“Sure did!” Fluttershy smiled, approaching the pair. “What about you boys? Have a pleasant sleep?”
“Certainly!” Bugs Bunny nodded. “Though Porky here was getting into another of his antics with Daffy, as usually.”
“It c-c-c-can’t be helped, Bugs!” Porky shrugged. “You know how D-D-D-Daffy is when sh-sh-sh-sharing a bed with him. He’s just so obno-obno-obno—”
“Obnoxious?” Fluttershy finished.
“E-E-Exactly!” Porky Pig confirmed.
“Speaking of whom, where is that duck anyway?” Bugs asked.
As if to answer their question, a loud snoring bellows from right upstairs. A snoring so loud, it shakes all the plates and glasses. Both cartoon animals and the young girl host have a pretty good idea as to ‘where’ Daffy is right now. Climbing back upstairs, it does not take long before the trio enter one of the guest rooms and discovers the duck, still asleep… in bed… snoring.
“Hey Daffy! Wake up!” Bugs shouted, clapping his hands. “Up and at ‘em lazy bones!”
"Wake up, sleep head!” Fluttershy nudged the duck. “Wakey-wakey! Breakfast is ready!”
“D-D-D-Daffy! Please wake up!” Porky Pig tried. “Open up those peepers! C-C-C-C-C’mon! Breakfast is getting c-c-c-c-c-c-… stale!”
But it is no use for our trio. No matter what they do, none of the friends can seem to wake the duck up. The duck merely mutters and shuffles under the sheets turning his back away from the trio.
“He’s sawing logs,” Fluttershy shook her head, incredulously.
“He’s counting sheep!” Bugs added.
“He’s a b-b-b-b-bump on a log,” Porky stuttered, before an idea hits him. “Wait! I got it!”
With a snap of his fingers, Porky makes a mad dash out of the room. Seconds later, he returns with a dinner plate and a ladle.
“What are you doing?” Fluttershy asked.
“J-Just watch,” Porky winked.
Porky proceeds to position the dinner plate gently over Daffy’s head… before he bangs the ladle against it.
*BONG!*
The dinner plate rings like ringing bell, and just like that Daffy Duck wakes with a start. Soon his head starts to ring so great, his head resembles a bell, before he leaps from the bed in seconds.
“WHOO-HOO! HOO-HOO! HOO-HOO! HOO-HOO! HOO-HOO!”
In a blur of black feathers, the duck zips, and zaps around the entire house. Before the eyes of Fluttershy and the tunes, the duck is performing a whole assortment of activities: Making the bed (Using the furniture in the room and tools from out of nowhere), taking a shower (‘I’m singin’ in the rain…’), brushing his… well ‘beak’, and doing the laundry.
“Eh, mee-muu-mee-uuh… maybe I should’ve let him sleep in today…” Porky stuttered, instantly regretting.
Sometimes later...
Daffy Duck is seated at the table, finally calm after getting the wackiness out of his system. Soon enough all three tunes are seated together with Fluttershy and together they enjoy a helping of a delicious breakfast to start the day.
“So, what’s the plan for today, Fluttershy?” Bugs asked, munching his carrot.
“A-A-A-Any ideas how to g-g-g-get us home?” Porky Pig asked, eating his oatmeal.
“Well…” Fluttershy pondered, after a bite of her salad. “To be honest, I’m not sure how my friends and I will get you boys home yet. Twilight is currently working on a theory, so I’m thinking we could pay her a visit? The rest of our friends should be there.”
“Sounds like a plan,” Bugs replied, standing from his seat. “So… where’s her house anyway? Is it far?”
“Oh no, not at all,” Fluttershy replied. “It’s only two blocks to the left, and three blocks to the right. Second house to the left, can’t miss it. But just in case you ever get lost, I always keep a map of the whole city.”
To which the kindly girl produces a map for the rabbit himself to read:
“Gee ‘tanks Fluttershy!” Bugs nodded, folding the map into a square. “Whelp… better get goin’ then!”
Just before the rabbit leaves the house, Fluttershy grabs him around the back which stretches out like the back of a shirt collar. Bugs reels back in seconds, facing Flutttershy curiously.
“Uh, Bugs?”
“Yes?”
“Not to stifle your style or anything, but… don’t you think you ought to wear something when you’re going out?”
“What for?” The rabbit asked, raising a brow. “I’ve always gone out like this. Part of being a rabbit, ain’t it?”
“Oh, I know, I know… but wouldn’t you want to keep a low profile?” Fluttershy suggested. “Just yesterday, what with the whole Daffy debacle…”
“I can hear you, missy…” Daffy pointed out, annoyed.
“I just don’t think everyone in town will be, um… accustomed to talking cartoon rabbits,” Fluttershy continued nervously. “Not to mention a talking duck who made the headlines for vandalizing private property…”
With a scowl, everyone turns toward Daffy Duck, who gives the impression that he does not care.
“What?” Daffy shrugged.
Getting back on topic, Bugs Bunny snaps his fingers.
“Oh, I see… ya mean like a disguise!” He said.
“Exactly!” Fluttershy nodded. “A disguise is just what you need!”
“Oh sure!” Bugs nodded in agreement. “No trouble at all. I’ve got disguises for every occasion!”
With a spin and a twirl, Bugs Bunny suddenly stands in the room posing like an attractive lady disguise.
“Something like this?~” Bugs offered, impersonating Marilyn Monroe.
Somewhere in the distance, a wolf whistles over the horizon. Angel Bunny, was just casually eating from his bowl of salad, when he immediately gawks at the display. Unable to believe his eyes, Angel’s whole face turns a deep shade of red. He stares toward Bugs Bunny, in awe over the attractive dress.
“Oh brother,” Daffy Duck scowled.
"Eh, th-th-th-that’s a bit much, isn’t it?” Porky Pig asked, blushing.
“I have to agree with Porky on this one,” Fluttershy replied, blushing up a storm. “Nothing that dramatic. Just something more… casual?”
In seconds, Bugs Bunny twirls himself back to his usual appearance.
“Like what?” Bugs asked.
A while later...
Bugs Bunny steps out of the room, posing before Fluttershy, Daffy, and Porky. He stands before them, wearing dark pants, a black hoodie, with pictures of himself and his friends along the front and back.
“About time I got rid of some of Zephyr Breeze’s old clothes,” Fluttershy smiled. “How’d even know about you guys? Yeah… how ‘did’ he know?”
“N-N-N-Not a bad fit, Bugs!” Porky commented. “Looking c-c-c-c-c-c-sharp!”
“Hmm…” Bugs hummed, looking over himself. “Not my kind of style, but… I’m diggin’ it!”
“Hmph! Showoff!” Daffy Duck scowled. “Anybody can pull ‘that’ off!”
“Here Daffy,” Fluttershy offered a green hoodie. “I got this for you to try on.”
“Ooh… don’t mind if I do!” Daffy quacked, putting on the hoodie. “I’m twice-th-as-th-handsome-th-ome than that rabbit, anyway.”
Shoving Bugs to the side, he poses with his new hoodie on.
“How do I look? Am I a hand-sth-ome duck or what?”
“You look sharp, Daffy!” Fluttershy giggled.
“Eeh-wuh-wee-uh-wee-w-w-what about me?” Porky asked. “W-W-W-what do you th-th-th-think of m-m-m-my disguise?”
Porky Pig stands before them, wearing a backwards baseball cap, a pair of shades, a t-shirt, and an orange vest, as well as some shoes to hide his hooves.
“You look great, Porky!” Fluttershy smiled. “Very um… very… I hardly recognize you.”
“You’ve got style, Porky!” Bugs complimented.
“Th-Th-Th-Thanks!” Porky smiled.
“Ah right, ah right, let’sth go already while the day’sth sthill young!” Daffy quacked, marching to the front door.
“Lead on, oh fearless leader!” Bugs followed, along with Porky Pig.
“Be careful!” Fluttershy called out. “If you need me, I’ll be at the local Animal Shelter to run a quick errand! Tell Twilight I said hi!”
“Noted!” Bugs Bunny waved.
Less than a few minutes go by, as the Looney trio proceed down the streets of Canterlot City to meet with Fluttershy’s friends. Along the way, the trio end up putting together a ‘beat’ of sorts, trying to blend with the city. Bugs kicked off with a beat-box, followed by Porky Pig adding some harmonies, while behind them Daffy just sways his head side to side with a deadpan ‘Whatever…’ expression. To say this draws quite a bit of attention from the passing citizens along the way is an understatement.
French Acapella Beatbox
Along the way, the boys are so caught up in their rhythm, they bump into an old lady coming their way.
“Oh! S-S-Sorry, m-m-ma’am!” Porky apologized.
“It’s quite alright, dear,” The old lady spoke politely.
The old lady continues on their way while the three boys pass by. What they fail to notice is that the old lady is carrying a cage containing a yellow canary on a little swing set. Soon as the boys walk by, the canary eyes toward the trio as if recognizing them from somewhere.
“I tawt I taw Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, and Daffy Duck!” The canary spoke up.
“Hmm?”
With one ear twitching and perking up, like catching a radio signal, Bugs Bunny immediately turns around for a look. But by now the old lady and her pet are too far away to get a good look.
“I tawt I taw and heard a Tweety Bird…” Bugs pondered, tapping his foot. “Oh well!"
Bugs Bunny proceeds to turn around, resuming his walk/beatboxing as the boys work their way to Twilight’s house. It's going to be a long while, until they get there.
Little do they know, spying on the old lady and the bird from a corner is a tuxedo cat with a red nose. He eyes the unsuspecting pair, specifically the little canary. His perspective transforms the canary into a tiny little roasted dish, a lemon hovering over it and squeezing along the skin for extra flavor. To which turns out to be saliva falling from the cat’s mouth, as he rubs his paws together sinisterly.
The cat proceeds to sneak behind the old lady ready to catch his prey. But he is not along, as a burly bulldog slowly tails behind the cat as if sensing that the feline is up to no good. Growling under his breath, the bulldog cracks his knuckles loudly ready to act.
The yellow bird was just swinging in his cage, singing his song.
I'm a tweet wittle birdie in a guilded cage
Right on the dot, at the end of his song, the sound of leaves rustling alerted the bird to look behind him, just in time to see the white-tipped tail of the cat that was stalking him.
"I tawt I taw a putty tat," The bird said, before he took another look behind him, just in time to see the cat, darting behind a tree. "I did! I taw a putty a tat!"
With that, an entire series of chase and wits played out, between the cat and the canary, accompanied by a musical performed by the two.

Indeed, the bad cat's bizarre obsession of catching the little bird was as plain as day, as he viciously chased the little Tweety Bird, all around the neighborhood. At one point, Sylvester had Tweety in his paws. But then, an even bigger and stronger paw grabbed Sylvester by the neck, from behind, revealing himself to be the burly dog.
With a growl, the bulldog punches Sylvester in the face, and sends the cat flying into a brick wall. Knocked in a daze, Sylvester was seeing multiple tweety birds, while Tweety flew out of the cat's paws, and continues his song.

"Come on, now," Tweety spoke to Sylvester. "Like a good cat."
"Oh! Alright," Sylvester shrugged begrudgingly, while sloppering and spatted, "Sufferin' succotash..."
(2:34)
With that, both Sylvester and Tweety ended their song together, in a dance, with Hector joining in. The three pets danced around their owner, who looked very pleased to see them getting along. But not for long.
At the end of the song, Sylvester's urge kicked in, and he makes another desperate attempt at the bird's life. Sylvester finally chomped Tweety up, in his mouth, forcing the woman to grab the cat, repeatedly spanking him on the backside to spit the bird out.
"Bad old putty tat!" Tweety chirped, as he flew back up to Granny, and they continued on their way, through the neighborhood.
Before Sylvester could recover, the bulldog stood over him, before dragging him away, into an alley, where the sound of pummeling and yowling can be heard.
"YOW!" Sylvester screeched, crying for help.
At that moment, some civilians were passing by, when they heard the commotion.
"Did you hear something?" One civilian asked.
"Yes, it sounds like the cry of a person stepping on a cat," The other replied casually.
Meanwhile, Tweety and his owner continued their walk, through the neighborhood, looking at all of the houses, on sales.
"Hmmm," The elderly woman pondered. "What do you think, Tweety? Do you see any house that you might like?"
Before Tweety could answer, a perkier voice was heard.
"Hi there!" Pinkie Pie greeted.
"Oh!" The woman and Tweety exclaimed, startled by the sudden appearance of the girl.
"Oh, goodness me!" The woman breathed heavily.
"Oh, sorry," Pinkie Pie giggled. "Didn't mean to scare ya."
"Oh, that's quite alright, dear," The woman composed herself. "I was just a bit startled, that's all."
"Hmmm," Pinkie hummed, eyeing the woman up and down. "I don't think I've seen you before. Are you new in town?"
"Oh, yes," The woman confirmed. "I–"
"That's great! Because I love making new friends!" Without warning, Pinkie Pie proceeded to shake hands with the woman, "I'm Pinkie Pie! What's your name? And who's your cute little bird?"
"Webster. Emma Webster, at your service," The woman introduced herself. "Oh, this is Tweety," The woman chuckled, as the bird perched on her fingers. "Say hello to the nice girl, Tweety."
"Hello!" Tweety chirped.
"Aw, he's such a cutie pie!" Pinkie smiled, petting Tweety over the head. "So, Mrs. Webster."
"Oh, no need to be so formal," The woman interrupted. "Call me, Granny. Everybody does."
"Okay, Granny!" Pinkie smiled. "Watchya doin' in town? Are you on vacation? Have ya seen the city? Or the museum? Ooh! I can even show you the best bakery in town!"
"Oh, that's very sweet of you, Pinkie Pie," Granny replied. "But, right now, I'm afraid my pets and I are looking for a place to stay for the night, or two. So far, the only place we can afford are the houses, around here."
"Well, then let's go over to my friend, Twilight's house!" Pinkie Pie chirped. "A lot of my friends are there. Maybe they can help you out!"
With that, Pinkie Pie leads Granny and Tweety to her friend, Twilight's home.
"My, she's quite energetic," Granny commented, to Tweety, who simply nodded in agreement.
Later on, at Twilight's house, most of the Rainbooms who were gathered there, along with some friends, were getting better acquainted with Granny and Tweety, over a plate of tea and cookies that Rarity had prepared for them. At that moment, three more certain friends had arrived.
“Hey goils!”
The door to Twilight’s house opens as Bugs and friends step inside to approach the group.
"We came over to see—"
The rabbit, however, stops mid-sentence and he, along with Porky and Daffy, freeze upon a most tremendous discovery. They see that Twilight and her friends are not alone, as the old lady with her canary is sitting in the chair before the girls, including Juniper and Wallflower. The moment they turn toward the tunes, their eyes widen with surprise.
“I did!” Tweety Bird chirped. “I did taw Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, and Daffy Duck!”
“Oh my goodness!” Granny exclaimed. “Can it really be?”
“GRANNY!!!” The boys shouted happily.
They race toward the old lady, wrapping their arms around her for a big hug.
“Oh, it’s so good to see you boys again!” Granny smiled.
“I take it perhaps you know these boys?” Rarity replied.
“Oh yes, dear. It seems only yesterday when they were all tots, running around my house, and getting into all sorts of mischief.”
"Eh, old habits die hard, right Granny?” Bugs smiled confidently.
“Guilty asth charged,” Daffy Duck shrugged.
“Eee-eewu-uh-eewee-uh, I try to stay out of t-trouble, Granny,” Porky Pig stated. “B-B-But you know me.”
“Hold up a minute!” Rainbow Dash interrupted. “You guys and Granny know each other?”
"Sure do!” Bugs Bunny confirmed. “Granny used to look after us, when we were just Baby Looney Tunes!”
“Say, wait a minute!” Daffy jumped in. “How do you know Granny?”
“Oh dear, I almost forgot to mention that…” Granny chuckled. “After Tweety and I found ourselves in this strange city, now we were just looking for a place to live. And we happen to run into these lovely young ladies who agreed to help us.”
“Hiya guys!” Tweety Bird chirped.
“Hey Tweety!” Bugs Bunny smiled. “How’va ya been? You’re looking well.”
“It’s w-w-w-w-nice having the old gang t-t-t-together!” Porky smiled.
“Hmph! What am I? Chopped liversth?” Another voice spoke up.
“Sylvester?” The trio spoke.
The gang turns to the side and spot the tuxedo cat. Only he looks as though he just emerges from the losing end of a fight. A black eye over his… well, black eye… his fur ruffled and torn, and a cast over one leg. And clutching onto the scuff of his neck is the bulldog staring at the cat with intensity.
“Hiya Hector!” Bugs greeted. “I see you and Sylvester haven’t changed a bit.”
“Still getting into trouble, as always, Sylvester?” Porky Pig crossed his arms.
“What can I sthay? A cat’sth got to eat, y’know,” Sylvester replied defensively. “Now can you pleaseth get this flea-ridden cur off my back?”
Insulted, Hector growls threateningly toward the cat.
“Now, now, boys!” Granny spoke, waving a finger. “No fighting between you two. We are guests here after all.”
“What brings you guys all the way out here?” Bugs asked.
“Well, we started in the city near this Crystal Prep place,” Granny explained. “But of course, everything’s out of our price range.”
“This’th neighborhood’s a lot chea’thsper,” Sylvester spoke up.
“In any case… we needed a place to lay low for a bit, while trying to figure out how and why we ended up here in the first place. I do believe I may have a few ideas about this mystery, and it is a coincidence you boys happen to show up.”
“Granny has mentioned that she used to be a detective in her day,” Rarity spoke up. “A regular Shadow Spade so to speak.”
“I’m thinking more like that lady with the British accent from that ‘Murder She Wrote’ series,” Pinkie replied. “Love those old-timey mystery shows.”
“In any case, with the number of you guys appearing in our world, we know for certain something big is going on,” Twilight spoke up. “And until we can figure out exactly what we’re dealing with, we have to be extra careful so as not to draw too much unwanted attention.”
“Please… how much attention can we possibly draw?” Daffy replied.
“Gee… I wonder…” Juniper rolled her eyes.
With a deadpan expression, Juniper Montage lifts up a cellphone and displays a video before the group. Before them is a recording off someone’s phone of Bugs and his two friends doing some beat-box act while strolling down the streets and remixing it into a catchier beat. Even more impressive is the growing view count, along with numerous comments. The group turns toward the trio, though Daffy is rather indifferent.
“What can I sth-ay? Chicks-th love a sth-ar when they sth-ee one.”
Equestria Girls: It's Showtime – Looney Tunes
My Brother’s a Hero to Me
The moment Bugs Bunny emerged into Sci-Twi’s own little world, even he had no idea what to expect. When the girl initially offered the rabbit a tour of her laboratory, she ‘literally’ wasn’t pulling his own foot.
“This is your laboratory?” Bugs Bunny asked in disbelief.
“Yup! My lab, workshop, my personal space, my… everything!” Sci-Twi smiled.
Suffice to say, even for Bugs, this display before him was still pretty hard to believe. A young girl, a high school graduate of all people, having her own laboratory… in her own backyard. Bugs had his share of encounters with several laboratories over the years, but this one ‘really’ took the cake.
“And your parents are okay with you having all this high-tech equipment and everything?” Bugs asked. “Dis all looked like they’ve come from a mad scientist’s lab. And believe me, I’ve met plenty!”
All the same, Bugs carefully examined all the devices on display. The humming and buzzing of electricity filled the air, and the colorful chemicals bubbled within the flasks sitting on a table and heated by flames.
“Yeah, I get that a lot,” Sci-Twi giggled. “Thankfully my parents trusted me enough to handle myself with this equipment. Shining Armor though… he’s a different story.”
“Ooh, Shining Armor, huh?” Bugs smirked. “Who’s dat? Yer boyfriend? Like a knight in shining armor for his lady faire?”
“Oh goodness no!” Sci-Twi giggled. “Shining Armor’s my big brother. Or more affectionately, and specifically, my BBBFF.”
“You’re what?”
“Big Brother Best Friend Forever.”
“Ah.”
“Anyway, let’s go over some readings,” Twilight spoke. “First, I must examine you. Y’know checking for vitals and your… well… being …”
“Oh! Twilight!” Bugs exclaimed, feigning modesty. “Well all right, I’ll play ball with ya. Anything to further science, and a way to get back home.”
Soon Twilight proceeded to stick a few suction cups on Bugs Bunny. Each of which were wired to a few machines designed specifically to measure his heartbeat, breathing, and temperature. Sci-Twi carefully studied the readings on her machines, while studying her books regarding some information on rabbits.
“Hmm… fascinating!” Sci-Twi commented. “I’ve never seen anything like this! Especially from a rabbit!”
“I am a cartoon bunny, after all,” Bugs replied. “And as a cartoon, I can do all kinds of things no ordinary rabbits can do. Like dis.”
Bugs Bunny reached into his hoodie and pulled out a magic hat, popping it open to its entirety. He reached into the hat and, somehow, pulled himself out of it.
“Eh, what’s up, Doc?” The two Bugs greeted.
And adding to Twilight’s bafflement, the ‘real’ Bugs put the other one away.
“Wha-H-H-How? Where? What? When?” Twilight asked, completely flabbergasted.
“I’m a cartoon Twilight,” Bugs reminded. “What’d you expect? Another rabbit? Oh! I can also do this!”
Bugs proceeded to flip himself upside-down and started walking on his ears.
“Wha-huh?” Twilight exclaimed, further flabbergasted.
“And I can do this !”
Without warning, Bugs Bunny inflated himself to look fat before doing a mock impression of a rabbit hunter.
“Shh! Be vewy, vewy quiet,” He spoke in Elmer Fudd’s voice. “I’m hunting wabbits. Ha-ha-ha-ha!”
Once that’s done, Bugs Bunny quickly regained his shape. He zipped over toward Sci-Twi catching the girl further off guard.
“Elmer really let himself go over the years,” He replied, munching a carrot.
With a flick of his hand, Bugs Bunny tossed his chewed carrot away. The toss knocked a picture frame off its shelf, while also knocking down some books to fall down, like dominos.
“Hey!” Twilight exclaimed, collecting her books. “Don’t throw your carrots in my lab!”
Bugs merely shrugged as the girl quickly straightened out her books. As she inspected her equipment for damage, Bugs casually walked over and picked up a small picture fame that was knocked onto the floor.
“Sorry Twilight,” Bugs apologized.
“It’s okay,” Twilight sighed, composing herself. “Just try to be more careful from now on.”
Bugs took a closer look at the picture frame. Sure enough, there was Twilight hugging a grown man dressed in a soldier’s uniform.
“Hey Twi!” Bugs pointed to the man. “Ya didn't tell me you were dating a soldier!”
“Oh, that’s still not my boyfriend,” Twilight smiled. “That's my B.B.B.F.F. Shining Armor!”
“Your B.B.B…”
In a blink of an eye, a cartoon light bulb suddenly appeared over Bugs’ head. All at once, it finally dawned on the Rabbit.
“OOH!!! The big brother ya told me about it!”
Twilight confirmed with a nod and a smile, before looking down toward the floor rather sadly. This did not take long for Bugs to notice.
“Eh… I take it ya miss him a lot?” Bugs asked sympathetically.
“Almost 24/7,” Sci-Twi replied. “Before I transferred to Canterlot High, Shining Armor was the only friend I ever had… besides Cadence. He was one of Crystal Prep’s best students, then after he graduated, I… I hardly saw him anymore. He only came back, once… but since then… he’s devoted most of his life… to the navy, defending our country…”
“That’s every soldier’s relative’s dilemma,” Bugs nodded in understanding. “I’m not one to brag, But I’ve once fought in WWII, alongside Daffy. Long story short, we came back home to hear what we’ve missed out on. Please go on.”
“Anyway, I miss him more than I realize,” Sci-Twi sniffed, wiping a tear anyway. “Being so far away from him, makes me feel so… alone…”
Expressing her heartache and nostalgia, Twilight proceeded to sing her heart out.
BBBFF (Big Brother Best Friend Forever)
Soon as Sci-Twi ended the song, she took a seat by her desk. For a lengthy period of time she looked at the picture of herself and her brother, which only made her sad. Not too far away, Bugs Bunny couldn’t help but shed a tear in sympathy for Twilight.
“Oh, I hate seein’ a grown man cry,” Bugs sighed. “Especially when it’s a girl.”
Reaching into the pocket of his hoodie, Bugs Bunny produced a handkerchief out of thin air and handed it to Twilight.
“Here ya go,” He offered.
“Thank you,” Sci-Twi thanked.
She proceeded to wipe the tears away from her eyes and softly blew her nose.
“Hey, Twilight?” Bugs began solemnly. “Can I tell you something… personal?”
“Sure,” Twilight nodded. “What is it, Bugs?”
“Well uh, ya see… I know what it’s like to miss a brother,” He admitted. “Because I had a… big brother best friend forever, like you do.”
“Oh, really?” Twilight asked. “So… this B.B.B.F.F. of yours… what’s he like? What kind of rabbit is he?”
“Oh, eh, he ain’t no rabbit at all,” Bugs shook his head. ‘He’s a man… Granny’s nephew. He’s in college or was… give or take. It’s complicated.”
“Really?”
“Yeah…” Bugs sighed in nostalgia. “Course I was just a baby looney tune, then. But if feels like only yesterday. I remember… how he’d take me and my friends places. How he’d try to keep us on our best behaviors. And no matta how much trouble we’d get into, we always knew he’d be there and bail us out. He’d do it all for us, for no reason at all!”
“Wow,” Twilight smiled. “Sounds like a great guy.”
“He sure is,” Bugs smiled. “In a way, he’s like ‘my’ big brother. More than that, he’s kind of my hero.”
“What happened to him? How is he?”
Bugs Bunny scratched his head for a minute or two. It was clear he trying to recall the last time he’s ever spoken to his aforementioned brother.
“Eh… it’s been so long,” Bugs shrugged. “Lots of stuff happened when you grow up like everyone else. We moved out of Granny’s house and gone our separate ways, making our own way into the woirld. I got a job with Warner Brothers, and I became a celebrity and everything. It all happened so fast for just a cartoon bunny, what with reboots and everything…”
Bugs Bunny then breaks the fourth wall, addressing all the readers watching.
“Not to mention the crazy fan artists and fanfictions…”
“Who’re you talking to?” Sci-Twi asked, looking around.
“Never mind that,” Bugs Bunny brushed off. “The point I’m trying to make is… well, I guess we all have attachments to a long-lost relative or two. In a way, I guess that makes us all like…”
“Relatable… ” Bugs and Twilight said in unison.
For a brief moment, they looked up toward each other and when their eyes locked they could feel as though they were truly sharing a moment. A realization so shocking, it could not be summed up with additional words. After a moment, when it started growing rather awkward, both Sci-Twi and Bugs Bunny broke it with a laugh.
“Wow, listen to me!” Bugs Bunny began. “Getting’ all sentimental and everything; I oughtta win an Oswald for that performance.”
“You mean an Oscar ,” Sci-Twi corrected.
“Nah, I mean an Oswald …” Bugs Bunny smirked. “Least from my universe anyways.”
“Heh-heh… I guess we have so much in common,” Twilight smiled, adjusting her glasses.
“But I’m just a cartoon bunny. I tell jokes, play a few tricks, make people laugh, and all for everyone’s entertainment.”
“Even if you guys are just cartoons… you seem to carry this same magic we all know and hold dearly. I can’t really describe it any other way, but it feels like you embody your own ‘magic of friendship’.”
Bugs Bunny scratched his chin, as if pondering on this newfound knowledge deemed ‘friendship’. To suggest that it was all very new to him would be quite an understatement.
“If ya say so Doc,” Bugs Bunny shrugged.
“Anyway, let’s get back to figuring out how to get you and your friends home,” Sci-Twi spoke, getting back on topic. “In the meantime, I suggest we’d determine if more of you have come to our world.”
“Sounds like a plan, Twi!” Bugs agreed.
Together they approached the monitor screens in the lab to determine if any additional news of strange beings coming to their world have been brought to attention. All the same, Twilight couldn’t stop thinking about her brother, Shining Armor. And then suddenly she remembered Sunset Shimmer’s farewell and departure, which didn’t even happen all that long ago. The memory of yesterday’s departure seemed to add this weight onto the heartache the scientific girl could still feel in her chest.
And yet, it was all a relief to her just the same. At least to get these emotions off her chest, to have someone to share it with… and with Bugs Bunny out of everyone in the universe. Turning to the cartoon rabbit beside her, Twilight walked over and much to Bugs’ own surprise she embraced him with a loving hug.
“Thank you Bugs,” Sci-Twi cried tearfully. “For being here for me.”
Though a slight confused at first, Bugs Bunny returned the hug with a gentle pat across Twilight’s back.
“Eh… your welcome,” He replied.

Author's Note
Hello everyone! Sorry it took so long to update this story. But it's still going, like the others, and on behalf of everyone on Equestria Girls: It's Showtime , I hope this chapter's worth the wait!
LARPing with Looney Tunes – Devil Monkey Run
Somewhere, deep within a dense jungle, the landscape itself is ablaze under the blazing sun. The air is murky, humid to all that cross its path. All the insects buzz loudly, a sure sign of an adventure of a lifetime unfolding.
Running through the jungle’s treacherous trees, a young woman races breathlessly down the trail. She swings across several vines, and swatting the annoying mosquitos away, with her latest quarry… a golden idol in the shape of a humanoid ape-like creature.
*ROAR!!!*
A loud bellowing roar erupts from behind the running woman. The brave adventurer briefly turns behind her, spotting her chaser. The silhouette outline of a menacing hulking beast, waving its humongous arms, its horrifying eyes glowing red like those of a demon. A creature so grotesque and unusual, no form of science can explain it.
The young woman immediately quickens her pace. Though her legs are sore and burning, she musters every ounce of energy to run for her dear life. The young adventurer is more than determined to escape the ravenous beast. All of a sudden, the adventurer trips upon a tree root. She falls forward, landing on her face, her stolen prize loose from her grip.
The adventurer barely has time to stand up. The moment she rolls on her back, the pursuing beast now stands up close to her face.
The beast laps on top of the woman, reaching its claws inches toward her.
“Are you okay, Scootaloo?” The beast asked.
“Are you okay, Scootaloo?” Sweetie Belle asked.
“I’m fine, Sweetie Belle,” Scootaloo replied.
The young girl takes Sweetie Belle by the hand, the latter helping her up to her feet.
“Though, no offense, I still think we could use a scarier monkey than Musical Jolly there!”
She points a finger toward the Musical Jolly Chimp the girls are playing with.
“Looked pretty creepy when I was a toddler,” Sweetie Belle replied.
Currently, the members of the ‘Canterlot Movie Club’ are playing a game of LARP – Live Action Role-Playing. The three girls are dressed as treasure hunters, a cross between Daring Do and Indiana Jones. Each girl holds a specific prop in hand: Apple Bloom arms herself with a rope for a lasso, Sweetie Belle carries a jewelry box, and Scootaloo holds a camera to capture the moments on film.
As of now, the three girls are in the midst of a dress rehearsal for their latest project. As it seems, however, the girls are far from happy about the overall project.
“I’m just going to call it as it is girls,” Scootaloo sighed. “This game isn’t right. We can’t just pretend we’re running from Musical Jolly. We need more ‘players’! Seriously, how many people do you know want to see a video of three girls, carrying a golden idol, running from a tiny chimp banging cymbals?”
A heavy sigh escape their lips, as the three girls are clearly bored out of their mind. All they could do is sit back and wonder what more than can do to liven up their little game.
“Too bad Pinkie Pie couldn’t join us,” Scootaloo shrugged. “Or even Rainbow Dash… either one could really live the game up.”
“You want Rainbow Dash,” Apple Bloom replied bluntly.
“… Yes .”
“Button Mash would be fun!” Sweetie Belle smiled lovingly.
“If he wasn’t away at Computer Coding Camp,” Scootaloo pointed out.
And all at once that happy face on Sweetie immediately turned into a sad frown.
“Don’t even get me started on our last LARPing game,” Apple Bloom muttered. “Remember how Snips and Snails botched Transformers ?”
Last LARPing Game
Sirens off the fire trucks blare, as several firefighters try to tame a heavy fire off one of the trees. Several paramedics carry a few hurt civilians into the back of the ambulance, while another officer jots down some notes from nearby witnesses. The girls stand there in their Autobot costumes at the scene, before they slowly turn and glare toward Snip and Snails, both dressed to resemble Decepticons. Like the girls, they have some soot on their outfits after a stunt gone wrong.
“… My bad!” Snails spoke meekly.
"My leg!" One of the injured civilian shouted.
"My cabbages!" Another screamed in horror.
Another heavy sigh escape their lips as the three girls continue to brood over their misfortune. It is in that moment the girls eyes spot three particular Looney Tunes – Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig – just passing through the park, still in their disguises.
“BUGS! PORKY!” Apple Bloom greeted.
Excitedly, she, along with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo, ran toward the three living toons who turn toward the girls. Bugs and Porky receive their hugs from the three girls, returning the greeting.
“Hiya goils!” Bugs smirked.
“Aw s-s-s-s-shuck!” Porky smiled, returning the hugs.
“And what am I? Chopped livers-th?!” Daffy quaked in disdain.
“Get on over here!” Scootaloo ushered.
Daffy merely rolls his eyes for the initial ignorance, but still strolls toward the group as Scootaloo wraps an arm around his shoulder.
“How you boys doing today?” Apple Bloom asked the toons.
“Oh, w-w-we, w-w-we, we’re all good!” Porky Pig stammered.
“Yeah. We just came back from Twilight’s house,” Bugs Bunny confirmed, chomping his carrot. “She’s smart, fawh a goil huh age!”
“Right… a real egghead,” Daffy Duck quacked.
“D-D-Daffy! Be nice!” Porky Pig scolded.
“What?! She’th got a really big head! All that thienticth talking and mumbo jumo’th giving me a mother of all headacheths!”
“But remember de golden rule Granny always says?” Bugs reminded. “’Never talk about someone behind their back’ . Besides, yu should be thankin’ dem fawh goin’ through all de troubles fawh us.”
“Fine!” Daffy frowned. “Tho long ath I don’t get to thuffer through another boring lecture. I be needin’ me some ibuprofen for all of them headaches.”
“… And that is why he’s always held back in school,” Bugs told the girls.
All three girls merely shake their heads, to which Daffy merely turns away with a look of annoyance.
“So, what ya up to girls?” Bugs asked the CMC. “With them costumes and camera, yuh looked like you’re making a movie or something.”
“We’re playing a game of LARP!” Apple Bloom explained, holding the rolled rope.
“And we wanted to record the whole thing for posterity!” Scootaloo explained.
“But… we’re short on a few players,” Sweetie Belle sighed.
“Oh d-d-d-dear,” Porky Pig stuttered. “Th-Th-Th-That’s a bummer.”
“What kinda game ya playing?” Bugs Bunny asked.
“We’re role-playing as treasure hunters,” Apple Bloom explained. “Like Daring Do… Indiana Jones…”
“Lara Croft!” Scootaloo added.
“Right, her too,” Apple Bloom acknowledged. “Anyway, we just got the golden idol and we’re on the run from some angry Devil monkeys…”
“Or we would be if we ‘had’ some monkeys,” Sweetie Belle pointed out. “It’s no fun when we’re short on players…”
“Hmm… I see why that’s a bit of a dilemma,” Bugs Bunny nodded in understanding.
Suddenly, an idea lit up like a light bulb over Apple Bloom’s head.
“I got an idea!” She declared, facing the toons. “Can you boys play with us?”
“Yeah!” Scootaloo smiled excitedly. “It’d be totally exciting to LARP with Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, and Daffy Duck for real!”
“I love that idea!” Sweetie Belle squealed.
“Hmm! Treasure hunters, eh?” Bugs Bunny pondered.
“D-D-D-Devil M-M-Monkeys?” Porky stuttered.
“I’ll play,” Daffy hugged. “Stho long asth it’sth fair! I wouldn’t play a game where sthomeone hasth an unfair advantage.”
“Sure Daff,” Bugs rolled his eyes. “Whatever ya say.”
“It’ll be fun!” Scootaloo replied. “Bugs Bunny with his wit, Porky Pig with his guidance and reasoning, and Daffy being… well, it’ll be a blast!”
“Uh, excusthe me!” Daffy spoke up.
“Now yer talking my language, kiddo!” Bugs smiled.
“W-W-W-Well, I g-g-g-guess it w-w-wouldn’t-I guess it sounds fun,” Porkey stuttered in agreement.
Daffy merely folds his arms with a ‘harumph!’, nothing he, once again, is left out of the conversation.
“I CALL IT! Bugs Bunny’s on my team!” Scootaloo grabs Bugs’ hands.
“Don’t you mean our team?” Apple Bloom asked. “We’ve all got the golden idol.”
“Oh… yeah!” Scootaloo blushed. “I forgot.”
“Welcome to the team, Porky!” Sweetie Belle welcomed the stuttering big.
“Th-Th-Thanks, S-S-Sweetie,” Porky smiled.
“Excusthe me!” Daffy Duck quacked, drawing everyone’s attention. “What about me?! What’sth my role?”
In response, the CMCs, Bugs Bunny, and Porky Pig give Daffy Duck a mischievous glance. The like of which makes ‘anyone’ regret ever asking. Catching onto what they have in mind, Daffy shakes his head and waves his hands rapidly.
“Oh no… no, no, no! Wait a minute! I know that look! I know what you’re thinking! It ain’t happening! Don’t even—No! No! You can’t make me I tell you! You hear me? NO! That’sth my final ansthwer! I will NEVER… like never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, like INFINITY EVER let you GUYSTH make a monkey out of me!"
Unfortunately, despite his protest, Daffy Duck finds himself forced into a monkey costume… against his will. The scariest monkey costume for a Duck to ever wear.
“You’re dethpicable!” Daffy Duck said. “I’ll thee you all in court for this-th!”
“Give it a rest, Daffy,” Bugs said, turning toward the CMCs and Porky. “Okay everyone! Let the game begin!”
“YEAH!”
And just like that, the CMCs resume their LARPing game. Only now with the addition of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig… all three really getting into their roles. Daffy, now the Devil Monkey, mimicked some monkey screeches, hooting and hollering almost akin to his icon ‘Whoo-hoo, whoo-hoo!’
“The golden idol is mine!” Daffy hooted. “Gimme my idol!”
“Oh d-d-d-dear!” Porky Pig explained in horror. “It’s the D-D-D-D-D-Devil Monkey!”
“What do we do, Bugs?” Sweetie Belle asked.
“Don’t worry, goils!” Bugs Bunny winked. “I’ve got this.”
The CMCs watch, as Scootaloo records the whole ordeal on camera.
“Hey, Mr. Devil Monkey!” Bugs called out, holding a banana. “Is this what ya want?”
“HAH! Nice-th try, rabbit!” Daffy Duck quacked. “Ya can’t fool me. That’sth foolsth gold! And furthermore, it’sth a banana!”
“What are ya? A monkey? Or a big ape?” Bugs argued. “This is gold!”
"That'sth a banana!"
"It's gold!"
"It's banana!"
"Gold!"
"Banana!"
"Gold!"
"Banana!"
"Gold!"
"Banana!"
"Gold!"
"Banana!"
"Gold! Banana!"
"Gold!"
"Banana!"
"Gold!"
"Banana!"
"Gold!"
"Banana!"
"Gold!"
"Banana!"
"Gold!"
"Banana!"
“Gold! It’sth gold!” Daffy quacked, grabbing the banana. “And I don’t care if the whole world knows it”!
“Okay, Mr. Devil Monkey,” Bugs shrugged. “Have it your way. Bye-bye! Sayonara! Adieu!”
And just like that, Bugs Bunny zip away regrouping with the CMC and Porky Pig. The whole team gather together to get into the camera view.
“Wow, that was amazing Bugs!” Sweetie Belle smiled.
“Y-Y-Y-You tricked the b-bi-bi-big ape!” Porky Pig stuttered.
“Nice work supplying him with the banana, Apple Bloom!” Scootaloo complimented her friend.
“I never gave him the banana,” Apple Bloom replied, perplexed.
“What?”
Meanwhile, with Daffy, the duck-in-devil monkey costume, realized that he's once again been duped. With a shrug, he proceeded to have a banana snack, when–
"I LIKE CEREAL!" The banana shouted in a high-pitch squeaky voice.
*BOOM!!!*
Not too far everyone, all heads turn toward an explosion rising toward the sky. Scootaloo, her camera pointing toward the air, spots a black object descending towards them.
“Look! Up in the sky!” Apple Bloom pointed.
“It’s a bird!” Sweetie Belle shouted.
“It’s a flying monkey!” Scootaloo added.
“N-N-Nope, it’s the d-d-d-devil monkey!” Porky Pig corrected.
And Daffy lands on the ground with a thud, his entire outfit in soot and the duck coughs out smoke upon impact.
“Gosh! An exploded devil monkey!” Bugs Bunny smirked, bouncing his eyebrows. “Ain’t I a stinker?”
With an angry holler, Daffy Duck picks himself off the ground. He growls furiously like an angry beast, his eyes turn red, dead set upon the rabbit who made a fool out of him. At this point, Daffy Duck not only looks mad… he is really peeved. One might even say he is ‘definitely’ getting into the character of a truly angry monkey.
“B-B-B-Bugs?” Porky stammered in fear.
“Yes?” Bugs replied.
“Sh-Sh-Sh-Shall we run now?”
“Oh yes, let’s!”
Benny Hill Chase Music
Jazz music plays in the background, conveying all the fun and comedic elements of a chase taking place in the park. Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, and the CMCs, take off running for dear life from an angry devil monkey that is Daffy Duck.
They race toward an elderly couple sitting on a bench and feeding the birds. The moment the group race by, they frighten all the birds away and startle the elderly. For a moment, the elderly couples pick themselves off the bench, with the old man waving a cane, running a few inches… only to cough their lungs out muttering, "Ah, forget it!" before going back to the bench.
Meanwhile, a race takes place in the park with various patrons bearing numbers on their track outfits. To their shock, the pursuit featuring the girls and the toons race right by the whole competition with the forerunners looking utterly puzzled by the display.
The angry monkey is running after the group, passing a pair of park-goers in trench coats playing a game of chess. But the monkey skids to a halt and back-tracks upon recognizing the ‘gloves’ on their hands. The beast quickly removes the hat, revealing Porky Pig, who merely smirks nervously. But then Bugs Bunny pulls out a mini foghorn from his coat and the loud blare rings against Daffy’s ears sending him back shaking. The pair race off, as Daffy clears his ears and continues chasing them.
Somewhere in the park, Lyra Heartstring, and her girlfriend, Sweetie Drops, were on a picnic, when they suddenly found themselves in the crossfire of the CMCs and toons' antics. When Lyra opened up a jar of peanuts for Sweetie, out popped Bugs Bunny, who hopped out of the jar, carrying the Golden Idol. Sweetie Drops was looking through her picnic basket, when she happened to pull out Porky Pig. At that moment, Daffy Duck, still hooting and screeching like an angry monkey, came charging at them. Both bunny and pig screamed at the top of their lungs, before they took off running, with Daffy Duck on their tails, leaving both Lyra and Sweetie dumbfounded at what just happened.
Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig soon passed the CMCs on the way, with Bugs making the switch with the Golden Idol to Sweetie Belle. The Devil Monkey was still chasing Bugs and Porky, until he realized the rouse, skid to a halt, and chased after the CMCs. Sweetie Belle made a pass of the Golden Idol to Scootaloo, who then passes it to Apple Bloom. Eventually, it became a three-way game of Monkey-in-the-Middle, until the CMCs regrouped with Bugs and Porky.
The three girls, bunny, and pig, quickly got into a huddle to discuss their next plan of attack. Then, with a wink, and a cheer, the friends broke away, and got into positions like professional football players.
"Set!" Scootaloo quickly passes the Golden Idol underneath her to Porky Pig. "Hut hut!"
The CMCs and Bugs Bunny quickly charged at Daffy Duck, plowing him into the ground, as if he's been run over by a bus, paving away a safe path for Porky Pig.
Eventually, they pass by some bikes parked along the park and quickly hop on. The girls and their friends peddle as hard as their legs can carry them, while Daffy grabs another bike… a tricycle with a bell. They race side-to-side through various directions in the park, Daffy pursuing them at one point… then hilariously the group are chasing Daffy and vice-versa. Bugs leans high on the back wheel, Porky sits on the front of the handlebars in comedic fashion, and Daffy, at one point, peddles with his gloved feathery hands while he is upside down.
"I'm stho crazy, I don't know thisth isth impossible!" Daffy Duck hollered. "Whoo hoo!"
And yet through it all, everyone is actually having fun with this chase. Even Bugs Bunny gets a laugh seeing the three girls going about, like it is the most fun either one have had in weeks. Just then, he hears a girl’s voice… only it’s not Apple Bloom or her friends.
“Bugs! ”
“Huh?”
Startled out of his laughter, Bugs Bunny turns his head to catch whoever is calling for him. But to his confusion, there’s no one else in the park. None but himself, his two Looney Tune co-stars, and the CMCs, all still caught up in the chase.
“Who…”
“BUGS!!!” The girls shouted.
Bugs quickly turns his head forward… and before he can react further…
*BAM!!!*
“Oooh…” The girls and Porky cringe.
All of them skid to halt, staring at the display before them. Bugs Bunny, flat as a board, slams into a tree in front of him, his bike overturned, bent, and one wheel spinning with a squeak. The Bunny peels backward off the tree, leaving an imprint of his frame on the bark. Daffy merely chuckles at the sight, while Porky Pig looks at Daffy with a ‘Really?’ look. The girls quickly gather around Bugs, as little Tweety Birds fly around his head.
“Hey Bugs! You okay?” Scootaloo called.
“… I’ve looked betta,” Bugs replied dizzily. “Wut happened?”
“You zoned out for a moment. Are you sure that you’re all right?”
“Yeah, yeah. I’m fine,” Bugs Bunny reassured, though secretly unsure. “I was jus’… thinkin’.”
“About what?” Sweetie Belle asked.
“… Lost my train of thought,” Bugs shrugged off.
“I think we’ve got more than enough for the footage for today,” Scootaloo declared. “That’s a wrap!”
*SLAP!*
The girls turn seeing Porky Pig holding up a film clacker from out of nowhere.
“T-T-T-T-Too obvious?” Porky asked nervously.
To which the girls merely chuckle, as they join the two toons and make their way out of the park. Yet as Bugs stands back up, brushing himself clean, he can’t help but survey the rest of the park before him. He can’t help but feel utterly certain that indeed a familiar voice called out for him. Surely it can’t be a mere coincidence… nor some R.K. Maroon playing tricks on him. A voice of which he has not heard in… so long. So nostalgic that he starts to feel… a faint trace of heartbreak.
“Lola… ” Bugs muttered.
A Few Days Later...
“OMIGOSH!!!!”
Scootaloo’s voice rings out so loudly that it can wake the entire neighborhood. Birds fly out of all the trees, all startled by the very scream.
“Girls! Look at this!” Scootaloo shouted.
From inside their clubhouse, on Sweet Apple Acres, the CMC gather around a laptop on Scootaloo’s lap. All eyes watch widely over the skyrocketing number of views of their latest videos. In particular, the video of their LARPing event gone wild.
“I just posted this video only yesterday and it’s already gotten ten million hits!!!” Scootaloo smiled, in awe.
“I’ve ain’t ever seen this many likes on ‘any’ of our videos,” Apple Bloom observed in awe.
“Does this really say that the video is currently #1?” Sweetie Belle pointed out.
“That’s right!” Scootaloo nodded. “It’s already gotten more views than ‘Hamster in My Pasta’, ‘Literal Cat Fights’, and ‘Smile Factory’! There’s even some new links showing reactions of our video!”
“That is so cool!” Apple Bloom spoke up. “I wonder wut the comments say…”
“No, no, no, no, no, nope …” Scootaloo pulled Apple Bloom’s hands away. “First rule about the internet: Never, ever… ever read the comments! Besides, I already spent the last two days editing this video alone.”
“Boy, are all our friends going to burst if they haven’t seen this yet,” Sweetie Belle replied, then pondered. “Are you really sure this is okay?”
“Hey, come on! We got the toons’ permission,” Scootaloo answered.
“No, what I mean is… suppose that certain people might see this video. What if they… start poking around… and asking questions?”
“Relax! As far as I’m concerned, anyone who sees this video will think it’s all special effects… or some committed cosplayers. Besides… what kind of people would be ‘that’ interested in our work?”
Meanwhile, in a fancy apartment complex in Canterlot City, Diamond Tiara sits casually upon her lounge chair in her bedroom watching the very same video on her own laptop. She can’t help but giggle at the antics taking place, especially with the big chase scene complete with added sound effects. She is so attentive to the video, she scarcely hears the sound of a door opening nor notices the approach of a certain figure… her father, Mr. Filthy Rich, just passing by her room, a briefcase in hand, and a cup of coffee from the local joint. By the looks of it, he is completely exhausted
“Hi Dad…” Diamond greeted absently.
“Afternoon darling,” Filthy Rich spoke tiredly, sipping his coffee. “Sometimes I really hate these long hours. So many people in this city, no wonder traffic’s a nightmare. What’re you watching?”
“Oh, just a video from some girls at school. Really funny stuff.”
“That’s lovely. Probably another one of those singing videos…”
Mid sip, Filthy Rich peeks over to see the video. Then his eyes widen at the sight of some ‘familiar’ faces… and he spits his coffee toward the side, as he tries to clear his throat. His daughter looks at him with such confusion.
“You okay, daddy?”
“I’m fine…” Filthy Rich answered hoarsely. “Please excuse me, dear… I’ll be right back.”
Diamond’s father quickly races out of her bedroom, as she eyes his departure. Soon as he is out of his daughter’s view, he hastily enters his office, drops the coffee cup onto the counter, locks the door behind him, and tosses his briefcase onto the floor. He quickly takes out his cellphone from his jacket pocket and quickly dials a number. He can hear the ringing from the other end.
“C’mon, c’mon, pick up the phone,” Filthy muttered, till someone answered. “Yes… yes it’s me. Filthy Rich. About those folks I was talking about…”
