PONY WARS
Episode 4: The Adventure Begins
It is a great period of civil war as a bunch of random information is seen floating in the air for no reason whatsoever, but to use for a ton of YouTube videos. There's a lot of cool battles involving space ships and light up swords and SPOILER ALERT! The villain is the hero's father, but he doesn't know it yet. So, thanks a lot now that you know...and the mare is really the hero's sister, but they don't know it yet. And you know what they did? They kissed. You heard me right: they kissed! That's so messed up! Anyways, I'm getting way off track...to make a long story short, Princess Sweetie Belle was on her way to Canterlot when this happened...
It was quiet over the planet of Manehatten. TOO quiet. Suddenly, a ship flew over it quickly. Possibly because a larger ship was chasing it while firing lasers at the smaller ship. And unfortunately, the large ship (with a bumper sticker that read 'honk if you're a brony' on it) seemed to be winning.
Inside the small ship, rebels were preparing for battle and running around. None of them noticed the two robots walking around.
One was an Earth Pony mare with light blue eyes, a hot pink mane, and a light pink coat with three balloons as a cutie mark. Her name is Pinkie Pie.
The other was a Pegasus mare with blue eyes, a light pink mane, and a yellow coat with three butterflies as a cutie mark. Her name is Fluttershy, Pinkie's best friend.
"Oh no! We're getting sent to the back of the ship! We should have not signed up for this!" Pinkie groaned as she sensed trouble.
"Um, could you hold this bag for me?" Fluttershy asked her friend shyly, handing her a saddlebag.
Now, the smaller ship was being lifted into the larger one. The rebels dashed past Pinkie and Fluttershy and took their attacking positions.
That was until one of them, a Pegasus stallion named Flash Sentry, gave a concerned expression and asked, "Hey, what if they're coming through a different door?"
The rebels groaned, knowing that they were expecting this. Flash's friend, Caramel, replied, "Then we'll just have to go over to that door."
"Give us a break, Flash! Why do you have to be a jinx all the time?" A rebel named Crescent Moon asked.
"Give ME a break! I'm only trying to help!" Flash protested.
"You wanna help? Then, point your gun at the door, worthless!" Caramel snapped.
Flash sighed before turning back to the door. He then asked, "Hey, Caramel? How come you're such a nice pony when we're not doing these missions?"
Without warning, the door instantly exploded and fell onto the ground. Then, black pony-bug hybrids known as Changelings charged in and both sides began firing at each other. During the fight, a unicorn stallion named Prince Blueblood was hit during the attack while he fell to the ground.
"Curses! I just had myself groomed!" He yelled before he died.
The rebels retreated as the Changelings chased them. While this was happening, Pinkie was looking for Fluttershy.
"Fluttershy, where are ya?! We gotta get off of this ship or we're doomed!" She snapped while looking for her companion.
Just then, Pinkie saw her friend down the hallway talking to somepony who she's helping while the other pony was using her as a hologram device. This somepony is a unicorn mare with light green eyes, a purple mane with light pink streaks, and a white coat with a pink heart with a light purple music note in the middle in light purple lace as a cutie mark. Her name is Princess Sweetie Belle, princess of the planet Canterlot.
"Help me, Twilight Sparkle, you're my only hope." She said with a concerned expression. Once Fluttershy was done recording, the unicorn turned to her as her camera went back into her before a computer came out. "Alright, now which button do I click?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"I think you need to click 'preferences'" Fluttershy explained. Sweetie Belle nodded as she used her magic to levitate the mouse and clicked preferences.
"Did that already."
"Now, click default media browser."
"Alright." Sweetie Belle nodded as she did just that. She was planning to send a message to Twilight Sparkle, the most famous Jedi Master in the galaxy via hologram recording. The unicorn frowned as she noticed something on screen. "Um, what's with the hourglass on screen? It won't let me do anything. 'Buffering'?! What the hay does that mean?!" Sweetie Belle demanded.
"Give it a minute, alright?" Fluttershy asked.
"Come on, I'm trying to send a holographic message here!"
"And I'm trying to tell you to wait a minute!"
Soon, the hourglass was gone which meant that the minute of waiting was over. "Now, click Import Media file." Fluttershy told Sweetie Belle as she levitated the mouse to click it.
"Aw, man! Now, it's telling me to download the Nintendo Wii! That must cost a thousand bits!"
"You know what?! Forget it! I'm give her the message myself!" Fluttershy snapped, the computer going back into her while closing. "Ok?!"
"Look!" A voice called out. The two looked and saw some Changelings who have spotted them.
"Run, you Pegasus, run!" Sweetie Belle called out as Fluttershy ran off screaming. The princess ran in the other direction, but didn't go too far because one of the Changelings shot her, causing her to fall to the floor. She got stunned which is why the Changelings kidnapped her.
Fluttershy, meanwhile, reunited with Pinkie as they ran to where the escape pods were. Both got inside as the door closed behind them.
"You sure you got that bag, right? This is going to be a long ride." Fluttershy warned Pinkie.
The escape pod was soon activated as it fired out of the ship and into space. In the larger ship, two ponies named Jet Set and Thunderlane were looking out the window, under orders to shoot down escaping space pods. They spotted the one Pinkie and Fluttershy were in while Thunderlane was about to open fire.
"Forget that one. There are no life forms in that one." Jet Set said with a bored expression.
"'Forget that one'? Are we getting paid by this laser now?" Thunderlane repeated in shock.
"Look, you're not doing the budget, Thunderlane! I am!"
Back in the pod, the two mares were looking out the window to the ship. "I'm going to eat some cupcakes while reading comic books." Pinkie said, taking out a comic book while eating a cupcake.
"Whatever..." Fluttershy grumbled as she rolled her eyes while the pod went to the planet Manehatten below.
On the rebels' ship, the Changelings moved aside to let in a pony. It was a Pegasus mare with magenta eyes, a rainbow mane, and a light blue coat with a rainbow lightning bolt coming out of a white cloud as a cutie mark wearing a Shadowbolts costume. Her name is Rainbow Dash, the dark lord of the Sith.
"Oh great! Look at this mess! Do they ever learn to clean up before I come in? 'Oh Dashie's coming! Wanna clean up? Heck, who cares about what she thinks?!'" Rainbow grumbled while the Changelings dragged Sweetie Belle in front of her. "Well, well, well, if it isn't Princess Sweetie Belle of Canterlot. Ok, what did you do with those plans? I know you took them to your rebel friends!"
"Fine, you win..." Sweetie Belle groaned. "The plans you're looking for are in 28 briefcases. That or 1 million bits! Deal or no deal?"
"Deal! Deal! Deal!" The mares from Deal or No Deal cheered.
"Awesome! I'm feeling lucky today!" Rainbow said with a cheerful expression. "I'll go with...Number 14!" The mare with the 14th briefcase opened it to reveal a sign reading '5 bits'. "Whatever...I always wanted to be on that show. Take her away!" Rainbow commanded the Changelings who dragged Sweetie Belle away.
The planet of Manehatten was one of the largest cities in the kingdom. Anyways, the pod Pinkie and Fluttershy were in had just landed, forcing the robot ponies to continue on. As they did, the pink Earth pony asked her friend, "Wow, some fun ride, huh?"
"It wasn't fun at all!" Fluttershy yelled. She stormed off angrily.
"Where the hay are you going?!"
"You can kiss my plot!"
Fluttershy, leaving a confused Pinkie behind, found herself in an ally way. The yellow Pegasus looked worried as she looked around. This place didn't look safe. Maybe she should not have left Pinkie behind.
She yelped while hearing a noise. Somepony was watching her, somepony hiding his or herself carefully. "Ok, Fluttershy. Calm down. You didn't hear anything..." Fluttershy told herself nervously.
Suddenly, a cloaked figure came out of nowhere and used a blaster to fire at Fluttershy, making her scream as she fainted.
More cloaked figures appeared and carried Fluttershy into a huge vehicle that was waiting for them.
Back in space, a space station known as the Mare in the Moon floated through space. A meeting was taking place in one of the rooms of the ship. Rainbow was head of the meeting of course.
"So, what are you saying?" She asked with a frown.
"The rebels are fools to make an attack on this station, no matter what data they can get their hooves on! This station is now the ultimate power in the universe! I suggest we use it!" A dragon named Garble snapped.
"Oh good. Glad to hear that. So, there aren't any weaknesses at all right?"
"N-No..."
Rainbow frowned. She wasn't liking the way Garble said 'no'. The Pegasus asked with a suspicious expression, "What was with the hesitation? Anything I should know?"
"Oh nothing really. This space station is indestructible." The teenage dragon said nervously.
"So, is there one weakness I should know?"
"Nothing much, but there's this hole and if you shoot into it, the entire space station will blow up."
"Sweet Celestia! That sounds like a major design flaw!" Rainbow exclaimed.
"No need to worry about it. It's about two meters" Garble said.
One of the ponies in the room looked surprised. It was a unicorn mare with very light blue eyes, a red mane with yellow streaks, and an amber coat with a shimmering sun as a cutie mark. Her name is Sunset Shimmer, the Grand Moff in charge of the Mare in the Moon.
"That's no bigger than a mouse!" Sunset gasped in surprise.
"Oh come on! The only way you can get to it is to cross this trench. No big deal!" Garble said while rolling his eyes.
"How about we board it up with wood?" Rainbow asked.
"Are you crazy?! It'll look terrible!"
"Who cares?! The ability to destroy a planet is impossible!"
"Don't try to scare us with your theories, Rainbow Dash! Your ridiculous statements hadn't even gotten us closer to the rebels'--" Garble began, but didn't get to finish because the Sith lord was using the Force Choke on him.
"I find your lack of faith disturbing! How dare you insult my theories!" Rainbow snapped.
"Enough of this! Rainbow Dash, release him! He's only making a cameo!" Sunset commanded. Rainbow let go of Garble who was having a hard time breathing.
"Anypony else want to mention a thing about the hole?" Rainbow asked.
"No, sir..." An officer named Flim stammered.
"That's what I thought. You're all dismissed!"

Chapter 2: The Egghead Jedi Master
Disclaimer: I own nothing in this story. My Little Pony belongs to Hasbro and Star Wars belongs to George Lucas and Disney
Out in the streets where Pinkie and Fluttershy's pod had crash landed, the Changelings were investigating. So far, traces of Pinkie or Fluttershy hadn't been found.
"I knew we shouldn't have let that pathetic Jet Set be in charge of what to shoot at! There was something in that pod. There were tracks going in that direction!" A changeling groaned.
"Sir, look!" Another changeling pointed out while levitating some robot parts. "Robots!"
"Oh look! A penny!" A third changeling yelled as he levitated a penny he found on the ground and laughing madly.
The first changeling's response was that he blasted the third changeling into pieces.
"Idiot..." He grumbled.
The vehicle where the cloaked figures were riding in had decided to stop near an apartment, so they can sell the stuff they had found.
A ramp came out of the vehicle, so that the Jawas (the cloaked figures), robots, etc. can come out. Fluttershy was among them. With them as well was Pinkie who was kidnapped by the Jawas when she was going after Fluttershy.
Fluttershy frowned as Pinkie caught up with her. The Pegasus said, "I'm so disgusted! Why did you catch up with me?!"
"Hey, I was only trying to follow you around! You're my friend!" Pinkie protested.
The robots formed a line as instructed by a Jawa as the owner of the apartment walked out. It was an Earth pony stallion with blue eyes, a green mane, and a yellow coat with an orange as a cutie mark. His name was Uncle Orange.
"Ok, let me see what you Jawas have, so I can let these robots do my chores while my wife and I plan fancy dinner parties." The yellow Earth pony said, looking over the robots. One of the Jawas began to feel dizzy as he took of his hood. The Jawa named Rover took his hood off and was sweating a bit.
"Goodness! I can barely breathe under this hood!" He groaned. "If I ever pass out, my job is lost! Seriously, Donkey Kong is the greatest video game ever!"
In a balcony in the apartment, a figure stepped out. It was a Pegasus mare with purple eyes, a purple mane, and an orange coat with a purple lightning bolt with two wings on the side of a scooter wheel on top as a cutie mark. Her name is Scootaloo.
As the Pegasus mare flew down to where the robots were, a voice called out from the balcony, "Scootaloo?"
Scootaloo groaned in annoyance as she recognized the voice while landing. She looked up to where the voice was coming from. Standing there was an Earth pony mare with blue eyes, an orange mane, and a peach coat with three orange slices as a cutie mark wearing a gold necklace with orange and green gems. Her name was Aunt Orange.
"What the hay do you want, Aunt Orange?" Scootaloo asked in annoyance.
"I just wanted to tell you that Uncle Orange is going to buy some robots to help with the chores." Aunt Orange said sternly.
"Dang it, Aunt Orange! When are you going to let me leave this worthless city and join the rebellion like all my friends did?!" Scootaloo demanded.
"Stop complaining and go drink your chocolate milk." Aunt Orange commanded as she rolled her eyes.
"Wait until I get out of here! I'm going to go join the rebellion and there's nothing that can stop me!" Scootaloo yelled.
"Over my dead body!"
"Hey, would you just shut up with the noise?!" A pony named Filthy Rich yelled from his apartment window.
"Hey, YOU shut up!" A pony named Ms. Harshwhinny shouted from across the way.
"YOU shut up! Now I can't shut up because of the two of you!" A pony named Lucky Clover exclaimed from next to Ms. Harshwhinny.
"How about you shut up, lucky colt?!" Another pony named Wild Fire yelled from across from Lucky Clover.
"Who are you calling lucky colt?!"
"Why don't I make you all shut up?!" A donkey named Cranky shouted in annoyance from his window.
"You should all shut up!!!" A pony named Joe yelled from his window.
"I just poked my head out the window! Cool!" A pony named Lyra laughed madly as she poked her head out.
Later that day, Scootaloo came out of the apartment to watch the suns set in the distance while listening to music.
"One of these days I'm going to get out of this city and fight the empire..." She sighed.
Then, she paused and turned to the camera, saying, "Mares and Gentlecolts, I present to you: John Williams and the Trottingham Symphony Orchestra!"
Sure enough, nearby, said conductor and orchestra was seen playing the music that you're listening to now.
Obviously after that random moment, Pinkie and Fluttershy were bought by Scootaloo's family. Back in the apartment, Fluttershy was done explaining what happened to her and Pinkie to Scootaloo while Pinkie was busy eating cupcakes.
"What does this button do?" Scootaloo asked.
"Wait don't--" Fluttershy began to protest, but Scootaloo pressed a button which activated a compartment that showed a hologram of a familiar princess.
"Help me, Twilight Sparkle, you're my only hope." The hologram of Sweetie Belle said before it went static and began repeating the message again.
"Is it just me or does that mare sound like she's in trouble?" Pinkie asked.
"Judging by the message, it seems like it." Scootaloo answered. "But the mare said something about Twilight Sparkle. Doesn't she mean Twily Sparks, the egghead who owns the library on the other side of town?" This left the mare in deep thought about the message.
The next day, Scootaloo was busy fixing up a machine that needed fixing. Just then, a concerned Pinkie ran out of the apartment.
"Hey, that shy Pegasus made a run for it last night!" Pinkie called out.
"What?!" Scootaloo gasped in shock.
"Yeah, Fluttershy flew out in the middle of the night. We have to find her before somepony else finds her!"
"Aw, man!" Scootaloo groaned. "You know that robot's gonna cost me a lot of trouble!"
"You think we should find her?" Pinkie asked.
"Come on!" Scootaloo called out as she flew off with Pinkie running below her.
Fluttershy sighed as she walked through the streets. She had to find Twilight Sparkle quickly before it's too late. Just then, Fluttershy saw a familiar Pegasus fly in with an Earth pony running below her.
"There you are! Where the hay have you been, Fluttershy?" Scootaloo asked.
Fluttershy held up a sign that read, 'A bunch of ponies are coming south east from here!'.
"I think she's trying to tell us that a bunch of ponies are on their way here." Pinkie told Scootaloo.
"Well, duh! What do you think I was saying?!" Fluttershy snapped while rolling her eyes.
Getting out a pair of binoculars, Scootaloo flew onto a nearby phone booth while the others jumped onto it and scanned the area. The orange Pegasus hoped that what Fluttershy said are not what she thought.
Suddenly, a figure jumped in front of the view of the binoculars. The trio gasped as the sand pony, a Pegasus mare named Derpy appeared while yelling, "Muffins!!!"
The trio didn't get far since Derpy knocked most of them out. Suddenly, a noise was heard, causing her to turn. Derpy saw a cloaked figure coming her way, making a whistling sound. "AHHHHHHHHHHHH! Those aren't muffins at all!" She yelped before running off.
Once the sand pony was gone, the figure came up to Scootaloo and placed a hoof on her forehead to see if she's alright. Fluttershy, the only one who wasn't knocked out, looked concerned as she asked, "Who the hay are you?"
The figure looked up and removed her cloak. She is revealed to be a unicorn mare with dark purple eyes, a dark blue mane with purple and hot pink streaks, and a light purple coat with a magenta six pointed star with five white smaller stars surrounding it as a cutie mark. Her name was Twilight Sparkle.
"Somepony you're not supposed to know about, yellow Pegasus." Twilight said with a grin.
Fluttershy gulped nervously. This wasn't probably going to end well...
Once Twilight had woken up Scootaloo and Pinkie, she reassured them that they were in her library/home nearby, away from the sand ponies and Derpy.
As the trio sat on a couch nearby, Twilight sat in a chair on the other side of it, giving a warm smile to Scootaloo while asking, "So, what brings you out here?"
Scootaloo wasn't sure what to be confused about: Fluttershy's reason to come here or who the strange pony was.
"Well, um, Fluttershy has a message for you. Go ahead, shy Pegasus." Scootaloo said with a nod.
"Ok, but I HAVE to show her this message!" Fluttershy nodded, a projector coming out of her.
Soon, the hologram of Sweetie Belle appeared once more, but the message was different from the one Scootaloo saw. The hologram said, "General Sparkle, I know that you helped my father during the Pinkie Clone Wars 19 years ago. Now, we need your help. Since you owed us after what you did on the planet Canterlot..."
This made Twilight nervous as she levitated a remote and fast-forwarded this. The lavender unicorn chuckled and said, "Oh, this is nothing to worry about. Just some magical stuff and politics. I'll explain it later..."
Twilight stopped the message at one part as Sweetie Belle's message said, "Anyways, I'm hoping you can get the plans for the Mare in the Moon to my father in Canterlot. Help me, Twilight Sparkle, you're my only hope." The hologram then kneeled. "Alright, now what button to I click again?" It asked before Fluttershy put the projector back inside of her.
Twilight paused to think about the message before she said to Scootaloo, "Alright, you better come with me to learn the way of the Friendship if you want to come with me to Canterlot."
"The Friendship? What's that?" Scootaloo asked with a curious expression.
"Oh come on! You lived in Manehatten ever since you were a filly and don't know what the Friendship is?!" Twilight asked in disbelief.
"Give me a break! I had to live with my aunt and uncle for 19 years. NINETEEN years!!!"
"The Friendship is what gives a Jedi his or her powers. It surrounds us." Twilight explained as she sighed warmly and levitated open a chest and a lightsaber in front of Scootaloo. "This...was your father's lightsaber. It's the weapon of a Jedi. It might start out clumsy and random, but it turns out fine once you get used to it."
Scootaloo took the lightsaber and activated it, much to her amazement.
"Cool!" She exclaimed.
"Yup! I used to use it as a bug zapper once I moved here!" Twilight nodded with a grin.
Once Scootaloo turned off her new lightsaber, Twilight looked concerned for some reason.
"I just realized something. The Empire might come after your robots..." She said grimly.
"What makes you say that?" Scootaloo asked with a nervous expression.
"Isn't it obvious? They wouldn't come to a city like this for no reason! Plus, I'm a Jedi!"
"Wait, what if they ran into the Jawas my aunt and uncle got the robots from? If they do and kill them, the Empire may find out who Pinkie and Fluttershy and that would lead them..." Scootaloo began before gasping in shock. "Home!"
She quickly made for the exit. Scootaloo had to make it back home before it was too late!
"Hey! It's too dangerous, Scootaloo!" Twilight protested, but the Pegasus had already made it out the door. "Get your flank back her right this instance!"
Scootaloo had flew all through the streets of Manehatten, trying to get back to her apartment before it's too late. However, once she arrived, the apartment was up in flames with smoke everywhere.
"Aunt Orange! Uncle Orange! Where are you?!" Scootaloo exclaimed in shock. She looked all over the outside of the apartment before seeing...two burned corpses on the ground. "Oh god! Aunt and Uncle Orange!" She gasped before looking around a little more and seeing another horrible sight. "John Williams!!!"
Sure enough the conductor and his orchestra didn't survive the Empire's attack either.
"This is terrible!" Scootaloo groaned, turning in the direction of the audience (all you readers out there). "That means we have to do the rest of the movie with Hans Zimmerman..."
She pointed in the direction of said conductor doing one of the songs for the movie. In an annoyed rage, Scootaloo chopped his head off with her lightsaber.
"What? I don't like Christopher Nolan's Batman films." Scootaloo protested to the audience.

With Aunt Orange and Uncle Orange now dead, there's no reason for Scootaloo to stay in the apartment (besides, the plot needs to move quickly). She came back to the others (after getting rid of Hans Zimmerman's body) and they made their way somewhere else.
Soon, the group continued walking through the city until they stopped to look at the view. Standing there was a part of a city.
"Central Manehatten. You'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. In other words, it's full of gangsters." Twilight said with a sigh.
"How are we even going to find a pilot here?" Fluttershy asked.
"We'll just look super hard." Pinkie answered with a shrug.
Scootaloo and Fluttershy flew into Central Manehatten with Pinkie and Twilight following close behind her on the ground. They needed a ride to Canterlot and unfortunately, Central Manehatten was the only place to get it.
The heroes arrived at the entrance to Central Manehatten, only to get stopped by a Changeling.
"Get lost! You can't get into this part of the city unless you have an identification!" The Changeling snapped, blocking their path.
Calmly, Twilight put up her hoof and said, "You don't need our identifications."
"I don't need your identifications." The Changeling repeated while in a trance.
"You saw me here last week. I'm one cool pony."
"I saw you here last week. You're one cool pony."
"Move along." Twilight smirked. Her Jedi Mind Trick worked.
"Move along." The Changeling repeated as he moved out of the way to let the group in.
Then, it cuts to the inside of a night club which housed some of the most terrible gangsters, criminals, thieves, smugglers, and bad actors and comedians known. If anyone were to find a pilot (and lived to tell the tale), this is the place.
Scootaloo and Twilight entered the club (Pinkie and Fluttershy were tossed out because of the place's 'no droids or we'll kill you' policy) and looked around. As a band played, everything that was mentioned above was either eating, drinking, having conversations, or gambling. The heroes walked past Berry Punch drinking from the bar with Daring Do while another pony talked a pony named Noteworthy.
"Hey, this place looks awesome! Do you think we should use it for a movie?" Scootaloo asked.
"Focus! We have to find a pilot!" Twilight snapped.
"Excuse me, are you looking for a pilot?" A voice asked. Twilight saw a baby dragon with green eyes, green spikes, and light purple scales with a light green underbelly and light green "ears". His name is Spike.
"Yeah, how about we sit down and talk about it?" Twilight nodded while she and Spike walked to a nearby table.
Bored, Scootaloo went over to the bar to get a drink. As the bartender shoved the drink in front of her, the orange Pegasus yelped as she got shoved. Scootaloo turned to see a random pony yelling at her in gibberish. She groaned and tried to ignore the pony that was yelling at her. Suddenly, she felt somepony tapping her which only annoyed her more. Scootaloo turned to see another pony looking at her.
"He doesn't like you, stupid head!" The pony snapped in annoyance.
"Well, sorry!" Scootaloo said, rolling her eyes.
"I don't like you either!"
"Chill out! You two don't even know me!"
The pony shrugged and said, "Fine, I'll leave you alone."
On the stage, the band started playing the same song again.
Back outside, Pinkie and Fluttershy were waiting for Scootaloo and Twilight to finish until they saw some Changelings looking around for them.
"Oh no! Changelings! We have to warn the others, Fluttershy!" Pinkie yelled.
"But if we get into the nightclub, they'll kill us, you idiot!" Fluttershy snapped.
Pinkie just rolled her eyes while she and Fluttershy hid behind some garbage cans.
Back at the nightclub, Spike took Scootaloo and Twilight to a booth where a figure was sitting. It was an Earth Pony stallion with light green eyes, a blonde mane with amber streaks, and a yellow coat with an apple as a cutie mark wearing a brown cowboy hat and vest. His name is Braeburn.
"Howdy, partners. The name's Braeburn. I'm captain of the Millennium Apple. Spike here tells me you're looking for a pilot." Braeburn greeted Twilight and Scootaloo.
"That's right!" Scootaloo nodded.
"Yes, we were looking for a pilot." Twilight replied.
"Is your ship really fast?" Scootaloo asked hopefully.
"Are you kidding me? This is the Millennium Apple we're talking about, kid! It made the bull run in less than 20 parsecs!" Braeburn laughed.
"But wait, isn't parsec a unit of distance, not time?" Twilight asked.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Don't ruin the moment, ok? Spike, take these two to the ship and get ready."
"On it, Captain!" Spike nodded as he began to lead Scootaloo and Twilight out of the club.
Just before Braeburn can get out of the club, he was stopped by a purple teenage dragon with blonde hair, keeping him at his seat.
"Just where do you think you're going, Braeburn?" The dragon asked while sat across from the yellow Earth Pony.
"Look, I just want to see your boss. Tell Gilda that I have the money." Braeburn explained.
"Gilda doesn't have time for you! She's too busy beating up some random dweebs nowadays!" The dragon scoffed.
Suddenly, Braeburn took out a hoof held pistol and fired at the dragon though it wasn't really clear on who shot first while smoke filled the booth.
Braeburn got up from his seat and proceeded to walk out of the club while throwing some bits at the bartender and saying, "Sorry about the mess."
