Lightning and Firefist (Script)

  *Ponyville*

  Pinkie Pie: (Jumping on a trampoline) Ahh! I... can't... believe... the Grand... Galloping... Gala... is... tonight!

  Twilight Sparkle: Pinkie! Please stop shouting, I'm trying to concentrate

Rarity: Pinkie Pie! Stop that right now. It's time to prepare for the Gala, and I refuse to let you put on your new dress when you're all sweaty.

  (Pinkie Pie stops bouncing)

  Stealth Firefist: Hey, I never got my ticket to the gala.

  Lightning Strike: Oh here you go. (Gives ticket to Stealth) Princess Celestia gave me another ticket for you.

  Stealth Firefist: Oh thanks. By the way, what's the Grand Galloping Gala?

  Twilight Sparkle: (Tackles Stealth) WHAT?! You don't know what the Grand Galloping Gala is?!

  Stealth Firefist: (Gets up) I've not been here that long Twilight.

  Twilight Sparkle:The Grand Galloping Gala is where ponies go every year to- (Sees Stealth sleeping)

  Stealth Firefist: (Wakes up) Sorry Twilight. I wanna be surprised this time. (Twilight goes back to reading)

  Pinkie Pie: (Muttering to Spike) What's Twilight doing?

  Spike: (Muttering to Pinkie) She's got an awesome magic spell she's been working on for the Gala.

  Rarity: Where are the others? It's getting late.

  Applejack: (Arrives with Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash) Hold your horses, girl. We're here.

  Twilight Sparkle: (Finishes Reading) Perfect! I'm ready.

  Rainbow Dash: For what?

  Twilight Sparkle: All right, Spike.

  Pinkie Pie: An apple! Are we having pie?

  Spike: Shh! Watch!

  (Twilight turns apple into carriage and ponies are awed by it)

  Twilight Sparkle: Thanks. But that's just the start. Fluttershy, did you bring your friends?

  Fluttershy: Yes. Will they be safe, Twilight?

  Twilight Sparkle: You have my word. (Turns mice into mice stallions) Ta-da!

  (Ponies have awkward comments)

  Stealth Firefist: Cool! Now try and put wings on my back!

  Lightning Strike: (Laughs) She's not that good Stealth.

  Twilight Sparkle: Neat, huh? And don't worry. They'll be mice again at midnight.

  (Opalescence pounces on mice stallions)

  Fluttershy: Opalescence, no!

  (Opalescence lands on mice stallions scaring them away)

  Twilight Sparkle: Wait! Come back! Those horses were supposed to pull our carriage. How will we get to the Gala?

  Stealth Firefist: I'll pull the carriage! Watch me! (Tries to pull carriage) So, how far did I go?

  Twilight Sparkle: (Unamused look) Ten feet. Backwards.

  Stealth Firefist: Well, I that I got nothing else. (Walks back to group)

  (Ponies turn to Lightning)

  Lightning Strike: Okay, I'll pull the carriage.

  Twilight Sparkle: But it'll still by impossible for Lightning to pull all of us, even with the help of his magic.

  Rarity: What ever shall we do? (Walks over to group of stallions) Uh... ahem. Excuse me. Uh, would you boys mind pulling our carriage to the Gala?

  (Stallions and Lightning pull carriage)

  Twilight Sparkle: Oh. Yeah. Right.

  *Makeup Salon*

  Spike: Come on, you guys. Let me in!

  Rainbow Dash: (Walking toward door) Sure thing, Spike.

  Rarity: (Blocks door) Heavens no! We're getting dressed.

  Applejack: Dressed? Uh, beg pardon, Rarity, but, uh... we don't normally wear clothes.

  Rarity: (Moans and lets Spike in) I'm sorry, Spike. Some of us do have standards.

  Spike: I still can't believe we're gonna be at Canterlot tonight. Our home town, Twilight! And the best part is that we all get to hang out together all night long!

  Rainbow Dash: Uh... I-I don't know, Spike.

  Rarity: We'll just have to see.

  Applejack: We're gonna be a mite busy.

  Pinkie Pie: Busy having fun!

  Spike: (Depressed) Oh, okay.

  Twilight Sparkle: Don't worry, Spike. We'll all get to spend some time together.

  Stealth Firefist: (Outside with Lightning and the stallions) Yeah, don't forget. We'll be there too!

  Spike: Great!

  *Arriving to the Gala*

  Spike: 'Cause I planned out my insider's tour of Canterlot. I've gotta show Rarity the crown jewels, and Applejack the Princess's golden apple tree. And Pinkie, we gotta go to my favorite donut shop. (Ponies make excited chatter)

  Stealth Firefist: (Sitting on Lightning) I personally can't wait to have fun at the Gala!

  Spike: Then, let's get a move on! Hyah!

  Caramel: Excuse me!?

  Spike: Um... I...

  Lucky Clover: If you weren't friends with our neighbor Rarity... Hmph.

  Lightning Strike: Easy, guys. It was just an accident.

  (Stallions keep walking)

  *Canterlot Castle*

  (Stallions arrive at the castle, ponies walk out with their dresses)

  Spike: Whoa! You all look... amazing!

  Lightning Strike: That reminds me. I left my lightning formal suit inside. (Speeds in and puts on lightning suit) Ta-da!

  (Mares say good comments about Lightning's suit)

  Stealth Firefist: That reminds me. I have to shine my armor. (Shines his armor) Ta-da!

  Twilight Sparkle: I can't believe we're finally here. With all that we've imagined, the reality of this night is sure to make this... The Best Night Ever!

  Stealth Firefist: Question, where are we going?

  Lightning Strike: To be honest, I don't know. I just wanted to see the castle. And Stealth, try not to do wacky things during the gala.

  Stealth Firefist: Ok, I promise. But seriously, what are we going to do during this event?

  Lightning Strike: Eh, I guess we can just relax. Nothing can go wrong. (Sees Applejack depressed) On second thought, we better check on AJ. she doesn't look too happy. (The boys go over to apple stand) Hey AJ. Why the sad face?

  Stealth Firefist: Is it because I'm not doing wacky things? I knew I should have kept doing them.

  Applejack: It's not that, it's just that I've made one sale.

  Stealth Firefist: Don't worry I gotta plan. (Goes somewhere else) Done! I made a sign. (Points to glowing sign) No pony can't ignore that.

*Later*

  Stealth Firefist: On second thought, I might be wrong. They act like it's not even there.

  Lightning Strike: Maybe we could-

  Rarity: (Arriving with Prince Blueblood) Two apple fritters, please.

  Applejack: Two apple fritters comin' right up. That'll be four bits.

  Rarity: Ahem.

  Prince Blueblood: Ahem.

  Rarity: Ahem!

  Prince Blueblood: AHEM!

  Rarity: (sighs) I'm going to have to pay, aren't I?

  Lightning Strike: Dude, that's just rude.

  Prince Blueblood: What do you know?

  Lightning Strike: I know that Rarity here is the most generous pony you'll ever meet. So you give her the respect she deserves.

  Prince Blueblood: Like that's gonna happen.

  Stealth Firefist: (Fire flares around him) Pay or you'll get burned!

Lightning Strike: Calm down Stealth. (Stealth's flare dies down) We'll pay for Rarity, unlike some prince we know. (Pays Applejack)

  Rarity: Thank you Lightning. At least somepony here has good manners.

  Lightning Strike: Yeah, our business here is done. (Walks away with Stealth)

  Stealth Firefist: That no good Prince Blueblood. I oughta stick him in a trash can and dump in a garbage pile.

  Lightning Strike: Well, nothing can go wrong right?

  *Ball Room*

  (Lightning and Stealth walk in)

  Pinkie Pie: Come on, everypony! You wanted a partay? Now it's paaartaaay! Yeah! Uh! Now that's a beat, yeah! Uh! C'mon, dance! Yeah, woohoo!

  Applejack: Okay, all you high-class ponies. Here's a highfalutin apple cake for your hoity-toity taste buds.

  Pinkie Pie: STAGE DIVE! (Dives into cake causing it to splatter on Rarity as Prince Blueblood)

  Lightning Strike: Well, it's not a total lost.

  Stealth Firefist: For Blueblood?

  Lightning Strike: For the Gala.

  Rarity: (angry growl) You, sir, are the most uncharming prince I have ever met! In fact, the only thing royal about you is that you are a royal pain!

  Stealth Firefist: Ha! You just got owned Prince Blueblood!

  Prince Blueblood: Ewww...! Uh, stay back! I just had myself groomed!

  Rarity: Afraid to get dirty?! (Shakes off icing on Prince Blueblood)

  (Prince Blueblood whimpers while Stealth is on the floor laughing out loud then stops laughing after a pony statue in about to fall)

  Rainbow Dash: This is my chance! (Flies over and stops statue from falling) Yes! Whoa! (Loses balance knocking down pillars and have destruction around her)

  Lightning Strike: Still have a chance of redeeming.

  Twilight Sparkle: (Walks in with Princess Celestia) Well... it can't get any worse.

  Stealth Firefist: She's right you know.

  (Rumbling, door opens with animals running in)

  Fluttershy: You're... going to LOVE ME!

  (Ponies run around panicking)

  Lightning Strike: Stealth, remind never to use the phrase, "nothing go possibly wrong." (Explosion)

  Pony: (Outside) My carriage!

  Twilight Sparkle: Um, um, uh... Eugh.

  Princess Celestia: Run.

  (Twilight whistles causing her friends to run outside with her)

  Stealth Firefist: Well, it could have been worse.

  Rainbow Dash: Name one thing.

  Stealth Firefist: Well, the whole castle could have exploded.

  Pinkie Pie: Ooh, that reminds me, I left fireworks in the ball room for the party and lit them. (Explosion)

  Pony: My other carriage!

  *Donut Shop*

  Spike: Hey, Pony Joe. Another donut.

  Joe: Don't you think you've had enough?

  Spike: Another donut! Extra sprinkles!

  (Group arrives in shop)

  Joe: Twilight Sparkle! Ha, ha. Long time no see.

  Spike: Hey, how was the Gala? How was your best night ever? (Group explains result) That sounds like the worst night ever!

  Everypony and Stealth: It was! (laughter)

  Stealth Firefist: Well we only said nothing can go possibly wrong twice.

  (Explosion)

  Pony: My other other carriage!

  Twilight Sparkle: I just hope Princess Celestia isn't upset with us for ruining the Gala.

  Princess Celestia: That was the best Grand Galloping Gala ever!

  Mares: Princess Celestia?!

  Lightning and Stealth: Wait it was?

  Twilight Sparkle: Pardon me, Princess, but tonight was just awful.

  Princess Celestia: Oh, Twilight. The Grand Galloping Gala is always awful.

  Twilight Sparkle: It is?

  Princess Celestia: That is why I was thrilled you were all attending. I was hoping you could liven things up a bit. And while the evening may not have gone as you planned, I'm sure you'll agree that in the end it didn't turn out so bad for this group of friends.

  Stealth Firefist: I knew I should have stuck with being the real wacky me! I live for it! And to be somepony's wacky bodyguard and hero.

  Twilight Sparkle: You're right, Princess. Friends have a way of making even the worst of times into something pretty great.

  Rainbow Dash: Yeah! Hanging out with friends!

  Fluttershy: Talking!

  Pinkie Pie: Laughing!

  Spike: You mean doing exactly what I wanted to do the whole time?

  Twilight Sparkle: Yes, Spike. You were right.

  Applejack: As horrible as our night was...

  Rarity: ...being together here has made it all better.

  Pinkie Pie: In fact, it's made it...

  All (except Celestia): ...the best night ever! (Laughter)

  Stealth Firefist: Who wants to see me juggle donuts? (Juggles seven donuts) Look everypony! I've gone seven donuts!

  (Everybody laughs at Stealth's action)
