Apple Bloom is about to see an intergalactic game show in person. Then, let's see if Trixie can keep up her good fortune.

August 13-Zeeple Dome / Monster Seeking Monster night 4

As Apple Bloom was enjoying a relaxing day in the park, she spotted her two friends, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo, walking to the side of a building.

"Hey, guys!" Apple Bloom calls out. "What's the excitement about?"

"We're going to one of portals that leads to the Zeeple Dome!" Scootaloo said with excitement. "It's outer space madness!"

"The Zeeple Dome? I always wondered what that's about."

Apple Bloom remembers watching footage of the Zeeple Dome while doing laundry. She decided to tag along to see this event. The trio of friends went to the building. A minute later, a gateway opened and the girls went in. They looked around and was amazed. It was looking around a space station. Soon, they were approached by a magenta skinned woman with flowing teal hair.

"Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo." The woman greeted. "The Cutie Mark Crusaders. I always wanted to meet you."

This got the girls nervous, knowing someone heard about them. The woman calmed them down. "Don't be nervous. I don't think of Anon-a-Miss. You girls rose from that."

She then shows them to their seats. The girls got excited to see this arena. Soon, a light orange skinned man with spiked up red hair came out.

"Welcome to the Zeeple Dome, everybody!" The man greeted. "I'm your host, Glargin O' Toe. We gathered some astronauts from Earth to see if they have what it takes." The crowd cheered. "Bring them out!"

Six astronauts come out wearing outfits in different. Pink, yellow, cyan, purple, orange, and blue. Apple Bloom was shocked to see these contestants. "Those are some of them astronauts from that space mission I watched!"

"These volunteers were on the shuttle that was infiltrated by aliens." Glargin explained. "Time to test their bravery. They will fling themselves into other aliens to defeat them. Will they be successful? Let's find out!"

The first wave of aliens were three squid like beasts. Then, Glargin started the game. "All right, Zeeples. GO!"

The Zeeples flung themselves to the aliens, weakening them with each hit. The aliens fired back, but the Zeeples avoided the blasts. The orange Zeeple saw a cluster of orbs. It flung itself to the object, and it unleashed explosion to the aliens.

"That Zeeple unleashed the cluster bombs." Glargin said. "That weakened the aliens well."

Just then, one of the aliens turned pink. The pink Zeeple flung itself and destroyed the alien. The blue and yellow Zeeples did the same to the aliens who lit in their respected colors.

"These Zeeples are doing great!" Glargin said with excitement. "Let's see how they do against this next set."

Two more squids and a big humanoid blob emerged. The Zeeples went to work immediately. The purple Zeeple launched into a red cross.

"That Zeeple hit a first aid symbol." Glargin informed. "This'll give him some of his energy back."

The crowd was getting pumped. Even Apple Bloom was getting excited. With the squids eliminated, all six astronauts concentrated on the blob. It wasn't easy, seeing how big it is. But soon, the creature turned Cyan. The Cyan Zeeple launched itself at the blob, and caused it to explode.

"Unbelievable !" Clargin shouted. "These Zeeples are extraordinary . Let's give them a round of applause!"

The crowd cheered for the astronauts. Clargin O' Toe approached them. "Congratulations, folks. I can now see how you were brave in stopping an alien invasion. Thank you for your participation. Let's hear it for them before we send them back to Earth."

Everybody cheered for the astronauts. Apple Bloom was very happy to see this. "That Zeeple Dome battle was thrilling. I wonder if Trixie will feel the same way later tonight."

Later, the trio of friends went through the portal back to Jackbox Village. After saying goodbye to her friends, Apple Bloom went back to her summer house. Night comes, she arrived the haunted house where the bodyguard is standing. "Evening, Miss Bloom. Ready for night four?"

"Yes sir." Apple Bloom answered.

The guard opened the door for her. "Come on in."

As Apple Bloom walks through the hallway, she sees out the window. "Hoo wee. Full moon fever."

The full moon was indeed shining in the sky. In the main room, Apple Bloom gets comfortable as Trixie is there with the Werewolf, Body Swapper, and the other participants. Felicia made an announcement. "Okay. Let the messaging begin."

Trixie has her eyes set on a girl with short curly hair.

"Greetings, friend." Trixie greeted. "In the mood for a date?"

"I think so." The girl nervously said. "I'm a little scared."

"You are indeed shaking. Let's head for my place. I may have to use a straitjacket to calm you down."

"Really? Hmm. I'm in."

This made Apple Bloom happy. She notices that the Body Swapper is not having luck. Later, dates where chosen. The werewolf got an extra heart for success under the full moon. The Body Swapper and the globe creature weren't lucky. Felicia then turned to a girl with a short pony tail. "Time to reveal who you are."

The girl turned to someone Apple Bloom met before. This creature sang out her identity. "🎶MOTHER.🎶"

Apple Bloom hasn't seen the Mother since four days ago. Felicia gave Apple Bloom some information. "The Mother gets a bonus heart for every night her child doesn't get a date."

"Well, who is the Mother's child?" Apple Bloom asked.

The Mother walked up to Apple Bloom and whispered the answer in her ear. "My child is the Werewolf."

Apple Bloom's eyes twinkled. The Werewolf soon talked to Trixie.

"Congratulations on another date." The werewolf praised. "That's four hearts so far. But, thanks to the full moon, I also have four. I would've had seven if not for the body Swapper."

"Not to worry, Wolfie." Trixie assured. "You're doing your best." If you knew what my monster power is, you'd howl with shock.

Later, the two girls left the house and hugged each other. Trixie then made a comment. "I heard you were at the Zeeple Dome. Must've been a cosmic delight."

The farm girl chuckled as she headed for home. In her room at the summer house, Apple Bloom meditated before bedtime. This way, she'll feel relaxed after this eventful day.
