Episode 5 - Sword of the Apple

In the Ponyville Schoolhouse, all of the foals headed to the entrance as all of them take their seats as the bell rang. Then Ms. Cheerliee came by with her genuine smile to them as she set her saddle bag down then turn to them, "Good morning, class!"

"Good morning, Ms. Cheerliee!" all of the fillies said, giving back their smiles.

"All right, before we get started on the cutie mark lessons, I want to say here when I mark you on my list" Ms. Cheerliee said as she grabbed her checklist and begin reading , "Rumble....."

"Here!" a grey colt said.

"Aura......"

"Here!" a light pinkish filly said.

"Applebloom?"

"Right here!" a light yellow filly with a bowtie on her red mane said.

"Sweetie Belle......."

"Here!" a white unicorn filly with a light purple and pink curly mane said.

"Scootaloo...."

"Here!" a orange pegasus filly with a dark purple messy mane said.

"Diamond Tiara....."

"Right here!" the snobbish pink filly with a mane of light purple with a white streak and a tiara on top of her head.

"Silver Spoon......"

"Here!" the silver filly with the glasses and white faintly grey mane with a white streak.

"Snips......."

But there's no answer as the students look as they saw that Snips isn't here.

"Guess he's late." Sweetie Belle wonder.

"Of course, both him and Snails always be late for class." Scootaloo rolled her eyes.

"All right, tardy for him." Ms. Cheerliee check off "Snails......."

Same thing as she check him off too. Just as she going to continue calling for the other students, a door swung open and reveal to the surprised students and Ms. Cheerliee the two foals who they breathing heavily while carrying bags from their front legs.

"Sorry.....we're.......late......." Snails said, breathing heavily.

"Well," Ms. Cheerliee look at them with strict tone "at least you two are here, but since you two got here late, you two have detention for this week."

Both of them slump their heads down while gave a exasperated sigh, "Yes, Ms. Cheerliee."

"Now, what cause you two to be late today?" Ms. Cheerliee asked them, glaring at them.

"Well", Snips and Snails digging through their bags and reach out two Gunplas, a HG Mobile Ginn and HGAG Baqto "we just went to the newly Ponyville's Plamo store, and brought our first Gunplas."

"Yeah, we want to build ours so we can hope to battle, like Kit Builder." Snails added, hugging the Gunpla that he gotten, earning a lot of attention to the students "His own is the best of them!"

Ms. Cheerliee sighed at their excuses, "At least take your seat, you two."

Both of them nodded as they headed to their desk while placing their respective Gunplas onto their desk. Then Ms. Cheerliee then changed her expression and face the students, "Anyway, that would be it. Now for the cutie mark lesson, we're going to talk about........"

While she continue to explain more while everypony was focusing on , Diamond Tiara stared down at her desk, gritted her teeth while whispered and growl at the one pony no three ponies that beaten her, "Kit Builder......... and those two..........."

Flashback

With the speed of sound, the Build Strike charging at the Gyan.

"No.........no.........no....." she whimpered in fear "Who the hay are you two?"

"LET'S GO!!!!!!!!" Both Sei and Reiji shouted as the Build Strike slash the Gyan in half as explosion set off.

It's all because of them! If those two never came, I would able to make the Build Strike mine! And now, because of them, I became a second rated fighter and those three became a popular for foals on Equestria! her thoughts are in rage. Just you wait, Kit Builder, I'm going to build my ultimate Gyan and tear apart of your so called 'successor'.


Outside, the foals are chatting with each other, some are playing jump rope, while at the table, Snips and Snails are building their own Gunplas, although they at first are confused but able to build it properly. Then at 1 hour after the first bell rang, all of the foals headed back to the classroom as Snips and Snails show their own Gunplas. Everypony (except Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, and the Crusaders) were amazed by how the two colts able to finish it and turns out to be. Most of the students begin question of how they able to build it properly as it turns out, that at one point, at Ponyville, everypony somehow became engrossed with Gunplas and Gunpla Battles as there was a Plamo shop (or plastic model store) near one block to the Golden Oak Library as they saw the son of Model Builder, Kit Builder, practicing with two other stallions as they saw Kit's own Gunpla, the Kit Strike Gundam Neo Package battling with other fighters. After seeing the battle, they were amazed as they want to become like him as their reason of buying their own Gunplas.

All of the students were amazed at their story, some of them heard of him shutting himself away from all of the ponies for his loss of his father, others gossip of him somehow changed all of the sudden and being more into Gunpla. Then Ms. Cheerliee blew a whistle from her hoof and said, "All right class back to your seat."

They all did as Ms. Cheerliee then pass around papers to the class, "Now we going to do practice of the lesson for the test coming next week. I want you all to work with a partner to work together onto the paper that I'm passing. Does anypony got any question on the work?"

Nopony even ask as they all gather their partner and begin working onto the assignments. Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle also decide to work together while Snips and Snails are mostly continue to talk about trying out their Gunplas.

After the bell rang all of the foals now packed their stuff and headed out; Ms. Cheerliee told them that they'll continue working on it by tomorrow. As all of the students hang out at the front, the Crusaders headed to Ponyville as Sweetie Belle hold the list of the talents they attempt before, even the ones that Discord once help them.

"So any talents that we didn't give a shot?" Scootaloo asked as Sweetie Belle read the list.

"Well, unfortunately" she show the list, with check marks of all of them "that's all of them, including the ones that Discord tried to help us."

All of them slump their heads with their exasperated sigh, their manes covered their eyes. Applebloom then shot up and asked, "How about we get some shakes at the Sugarcube Corner ? Maybe we can brainstorm for a new list."

The others shrugged as they headed to it. Then as they enter and take their order, they brought out a new list from their saddle bags as they begin discussing of other talents they haven't tried. So forth, the Crusaders kept seeing mares, stallions, and foals discussing of Gunplas and Gunpla Battle,

"So I made my own custom Gunpla that is stronger!"

"Oh yes, those Gunpla Battles became a hit on Canterlot entertainment."

"Really?! I really want to battle yours with my Gunpla!"

"What's with everypony today?" Applebloom arch her eyebrow in confusion "They kept saying this 'Gunpla' stuff that Snips and Snails told about as if it became a big thing for everypony?"

"It is!" Pinkie Pie popped up in front of them, surprising them "Gunpla is the best thing happen in Equestria!"

"Pinkie where did you......?!" Applebloom asked.

"Don't, Applebloom." Scootaloo interrupted her "Rainbow told me to never question her. She said that anypony question her will go crazy."

Not want to further the question, Applebloom changed the subject, "Anyway, so what is this Gunpla that everypony so hyped up?"

"It's a plastic model kit that you can build and battle with it in Gunpla Battle! It was so much fun it's like playing a video games only you really control your own creation! Everypony was so hyped up because of the first appearance of them in Canterlot for the Underground Gunpla Battle World Tournament Qualifiers that some of the ponies are start buying their own in order to compete in the competition to be the best!" Pinkie Pie explained to them which they got the message of her rambling.

Suddenly, a door open with a ring from the doorbell as Pinkie Pie shot up and wave at the customer entering, "Oh! Hi, Kit!"

Kit Builder wave his hoof at her too as he walk to a table near to the Crusaders and sat down, "Hey Pinkie. Do you think you can make some Vanilla Milkshake for me and my friends? 4 of them please?"

"Of course!" she piped up as he pay the cost for it as Pinkie rushed to the kitchen preparing the drinks. Then he saw the Crusaders and with curiosity taken over him, he asked them,

"Huh? Are you three.....?"

"Um, hello there sir. M'ah name is Applebloom." she greet him and point to her friends "This is Scootaloo...."

"Hi." Scootaloo wave at him.

"And Sweetie Belle."

"H-Hello there." Sweetie Belle stammer.

"Nice to meet you three." he return them with a smile "If I guess correctly, you three are sisters to some of my friends, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Rarity."

"Well almost, Rainbow is like my sister figure." Scootaloo comment.

"Wait you know our sisters?" Sweetie Belle asked him which he nodded.

"Yeah, they told me about you three. You see I used to be a blank flank" he explained to them which they're surprised at first "but now I found my talent."

He show them his Builder Mark which the others were confused at this. The Crusaders learned all of the type of marks that ponies gotten but they never seen this one before. In their eyes, his 'cutie mark' is a robot face being envelop in dark blue hue particles on the left while the design have a oddly strange shaped yellow horns sticking onto the front and a white piece that smoosh together with two small rectangle making a 'mouth' and a green eyes on top of that. To them, maybe it could be a newest talent that they never seen in Equestria.

"Soooooo.........." Scootaloo trying to find a right words of his mark "Your talent is building robots?"

"Well close, I actually build Gunplas and enter the Qualifiers to get in the World Tournament with my friends." he explained which the Crusaders gave him odd looks. Then a ring came as the others turned they saw two other stallions with a mare coming in.

"Sei! Reiji! China!" Kit wave at them as they have a smile as they headed to Kit's table.

"Hey, Kit. Glad you invite us to have snack at the Sugarcube Corner." Sei said taking his seat as Reiji and China take theirs too.

"Of course, but I wish Alia can come too." Kit responded.

"Yeah, but right now, she's helping with your friend Rarity with picking a design for her." said China as Kit nodded.

"Um, Kit?" Sweetie Belle asked him, earning their attention to them "Are they your friends that you mention of enter the World Tournament?"

"Yeah, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, and Applebloom, I like to meet my friends." he pointed at them. "The one on the right is Iroi Sei, Reiji, and China."

"And the fillies are actually our friends' little sister." Kit introduce to them. "Scootaloo, Applebloom, and Sweetie Belle. Also known as the Cutie Mark Crusaders."

"Nice to meet you, three." China said, sweetly.

"Same thing." Sei nodded.

"Hey!" Reiji just wave his hoof at them.

"Nice to meet you three. I really like your mane, Ms. China." Sweetie Belle comment at her "It looks beautiful like my sister."

"Thank you." she nodded and smile at her.

Just then, Pinkie Pie came with a tray of 6 milkshake and passed to them with her signature grin, "There you go! 4 homemade Vanilla Milkshake courtesy of Pinkie Pie and the Sugarcube Corner!"

The others laughed at Pinkie's randomness. Twilight's right. Kit thought of it. Pinkie Pie does make anypony smile. Or rather, she had the power to make it happen. "Thanks Pinkie." he said, gave her a smile which she grin at him back as she glance at the Crusaders,

"As for the Crusaders, one orange, one vanilla, and one apple!" She passed to the Crusaders as she hopped back to the kitchen.

With taking sips, the four ponies sigh happily at the treat that Pinkie made. Reiji taking big sips but not getting a brain freeze surprising the others, as they wonder if Kit wonder if Reiji's immune to brain freeze to which his answer is Reiji's head now blue and had a ice cube, covering half of his face as he clutch his head in pain, giving laugh from the others. After getting a hot coca for him to get the brain freeze off of him, all of them continue to talk about of their training. Turns out, Kit had been doing well with Sei's building skills like he needs to use weathering markers to give his Gunpla the honor of his battles as for Reiji, he able to match his well, but still got a long way to go.

After that, Kit then asked China, "China, I was wondering. Do you also do Gunpla Battle too along with Alia?"

She shook her head, "Only once."

"I see. So do you know which pony had your original Gunpla? Sei and Reiji told me that you and Alia appear so that means that somepony have both of your original Gunplas and build it and battle with it."

China start to think about it, putting her hoof onto her chin then glance at him with a mischievous smile, "We can't tell you. It's a secret."

Kit chuckled a bit then nodded at her, "All right. But I hope that I can meet them soon."

She nodded then change the topic, "So how's Twilight and Spike doing building their own?"

"They doing well. They still not yet finished but they know how to build it well." Kit responded.

Just then, the door open, revealing Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon with their smug expression as they dagger their narrow eyes at Kit, who now had a neutral expression including the Crusaders too.

"Greetings everypony, today my daddy proposed a Gunpla Battle Tournament in the commemoration of the Underground Equestria Gunpla Battle World Tournament that's going to hosted up by next month, and it's going to happen on Ponyville." she explained which the others were surprised at this as she continue on "Everypony is invited to come, and there's going to be a prize for the winner, a year supply of Gunplas. I'll be there too as the final contestant."

That made all of the ponies gasped as each of them have a excited vibe as most of them kept saying 'I'm going to win that prize' or 'That prize got my name to it.' As they saying that they going to enter, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon saw Kit and his friends as they walked towards them, still holding their smug face.

"Well, you not going to enter my daddy's tournament?" said Diamond Tiara.

"Sorry, but I got some training with Sei and Reiji for the next round of the Qualifiers." Kit said, holding his tone.

"Oh, is it because you're not strong without your friends?" Silver Spoon taunt him, getting glares from Sei and Reiji including the Crusaders, for now picking on their new friends.

"No, it's because I don't want to waste my time battling with two weak fillies mules." Kit countered which both of the snobbish fillies' jawed dropped down to the floor with their coats are white and having their eyes are in complete shocked. The others were laughing hard at them, China covered her mouth not to laugh, as the Crusaders are laughing hard too.

That cause Diamond Tiara to have her face boil red, puff her cheeks and steam coming out of her ears along with dagger her eyes at him, "That's it! Now your cross the line! You going to battle me with your custom Gunplas by tomorrow at the tournament! I see if my daddy can make a exhibition match for this!"

"I already told, I'm not going to-" Kit sighed as Diamond Tiara interrupted his sentence.

"And if you don't come, then I persuade my daddy to ask the Qualifiers to boot you out of the tournament!"

That caused the Crusaders to snapped, as they rushed and blocked the bullies away from them.

"That's enough, Diamond Tiara!" Applebloom shouted.

"Yeah, you had no right to do that to our friends!" Scootaloo added.

"Leave him out of this!" Sweeite Belle defended him.

This surprised them as they regain their cool, Diamond Tiara said to them, "Oh yeah? What are you going to do about, blank flanks? "

Applebloom gritted her teeth as she said with determination, "I battle you, Diamond Tiara at Kit's place at the exhibition match."

This caused the others to be surprised at this. Applebloom is going to battle Diamond Tiara at Kit's place at the exhibition match? But why? She doesn't have a Gunpla and a GB base to battle.

"Fine, but once I defeat your Gunpla, Kit's next." she narrow her eyes at her then him which he glares back at her as the two snobbish fillies exit out of the Sugarcube Corner, with the four ponies and the Crusaders watch them leave.

Scootaloo turn to Applebloom and asked, "Applebloom, what are you thinking?!"

"I'm not going to let her threaten our friends." said Applebloom "Beside, this also a good chance that we the Cutie Mark Crusaders can outshine them."

"Yeah, but how we're to fight?" Sweetie Belle asked her "We don't have our own Gunplas nor any training in Gunpla Battle."

All of them starting to thinking of how they going to do it until Kit said, "We'll help you."

The Crusaders look at them surprised by their offering as Applebloom asked him, "But Kit, don't you need to train for the Qualifiers next week?"

"Yeah, but the way you stand up to your friends, that takes some courage for you, Applebloom, right Reiji?" Kit responded.

"Yeah, beside you need to teach that snobbish filly to never underestimated you and your friends." Reiji agreeing with him. "Show her the strength of the Crusaders!"

The three fillies nodded as they screamed that Kit, Sei, Reiji, and China clutch their ears tightly with their hooves, "CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS GUNPLA FIGHTERS, YAY!!!!!!!!"

"What was that about?" Sei, with his mane flared up, asked Kit, who also got it too.

"It's the Crusaders. Don't worry about it." Kit responded, fixing his mane back to his natural style as the others too. Decide not to question further, Kit and his friends along with the Crusaders headed out of the door.


At the ROBOTIC HOBBY SHOP, the Crusaders look at the samples of Gunplas on the display case, trying to pick which one for Applebloom to use while Kit and his friends along with Shop Keeper watching too. They told him of Applebloom going to battle Diamond Tiara in his place at the exhibition match at Ponyville since she blackmail him of doing it otherwise she'll tell her daddy to boot him out of the Qualifiers.

"That spoiled filly...........it's not one thing that she'll threaten to close my shop" Shop Keeper mumbled " but to tell her daddy to boot you of the competition just gone far enough."

"I agree, she's a ignorant mule. Um no offense twice." Kit heard a noise as he turn, the others were surprise at the appearance of a mule.

"None taken. Twice." the mule replied.

The others decide not to question of it as Applebloom scratching her mane trying to figure out which Gunpla she want to make with smoke coming from her head. Shop Keeper came to the fillies and said with his calm tone, "I see you having trouble, miss. Do you need help?"

"Well, to tell the truth, I don't know which Gunpla is good for me to build to prepare for tomorrow. " Applebloom look to the case unsure of the choices she want.

"There's lots of Gunplas that you can choose or make." Sei replied, joining with Shop Keeper "You just need to let your imagination follow you."

"If that's possible." she muttered as Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle look at their friends worried.

Sei turn to the others shrugged of what they can do. Kit thought of it then an idea came up as he came to her side, "Applebloom, I think I know what Gunpla you might like."

The others take glance at him, picking up two kits from the shelves, HGUC Gundam F91 and HG Sword Impulse Gundam. The Crusaders were confused as Kit said to her, "Now close your eyes, Applebloom. Imagine the two kits that I showed you will become one. A Gunpla that symbolize you."

She nodded as she close her eyes, she imagine of the pictures of the F91 and the Sword Impulse now fusing together as a silhouette Gunpla begin to emerges as colors begin to blend together. She open her eyes widened, "I seen it! My Gunpla!"

She grabbed the two with excitement and headed to the counter as with a grin to Kit, he headed there too. Sei then glance at him asked, "What did you did that made her choose the two Gunplas?"

"A technique that my dad taught me" Kit explained "When I was little, I sometimes having trouble of finding a inspiration that I want to do, so my dad told me to close my eyes and let my imagination take over to glimpse of my inspiration."

The others were taken by this. This is something that Sei did too, when he complete his Star Build Strike Gundam as they gave him a small smile as with the Crusaders return to them, the others headed to the table and start building Applebloom's Gunpla as the night twinkle.


Morning rise as everypony lined up, getting sign at the town hall for the Gunpla Battle Tournament as inside of the town hall, everypony got to their seat as roared of fans shouted crazy.  As in right side, Diamond Tiara was smirking while at the left, Applebloom narrow her eyes, holding her own Gunpla while Kit and the others were at the stand as Mr. Ral came to their side.

"I surprise that you came, blank flank. Thought that you chicken out." Diamond Tiara taunted.

"I don't plan on running away from you when you threaten my friend." Applebloom countered.

"Very well, then I going to enjoy thrash your Gunpla and Kit's own!" Diamond Tiara said as both got to the generator on the middle.

Please set your GB Base

Both fillies set their GB base as their info appeared on their screen.

Begin Plavsky Particle dispersal

As the particles disperse, they begin forming around, creating into a rocky barren land with ruins of a ancient temples laid in sand.

Field 2 - Desert

As the particles create the base for the fighters, Applebloom look to her Gunpla. It like the fusion of both the F91 and the Sword Impulse with the F91 have the remain on its body and legs, it have forearms, v fin, and the two anti - ship swords of the impulse while the beam riffle and the shield retain the same of the F91. It has bright red colors to the side of the body, shoulder armor, and knee armors matched to Applebloom's mane while the hilts of the anti - ship swords have cutie marks of Applejack and Big Mac. The head is somewhat look the same but have the design almost fuse with the impulse.  Next it has some of the rest of the coloring similar to the Sword Impulse and the final touch she did is adding the cutie mark crusaders' symbol on the left shoulder armor.

"Please lend me your strength." she muttered as she heard the income's voice.

Please set your Gunpla

She set it down to the middle as with the particle scan it, her Gunpla's eyes flash in emerald green. Then she place her front hooves on the controls as the particles materialize into the launch sequence.

Battle Start

"Applebloom, F90 Sword, here I go!!!!!"

With the catapult launched the F90 Sword, it spin around gracefully in the sky and land on the ground. Then it look around at the surrounding with the sandstorm blew harder as Applebloom caution look around while walking slowly.

Okay, got to be careful........her thoughts ranged as a CAUTION sign screen alert her on the left as she turn and saw, a pink mono eye flash as a yellow beam thrust towards her but she dodge it quickly. Then it rapidly repeatedly thrust the yellow beam at her only for her to use her beam shield to block until the force of it, knock her to the ground as Applebloom shriek and grunted. Then as the sandstorm subsided, the attacker revealed to be a silver coated Gyan but with a newly different armor that sticking out on the side as two claw like arms came from the shoulders holding the two more beam sabers while the normal holding the two originals left. The chest piece was modified in almost reminisce of the SID from Gundam Age but retain the original Gyan body as two of the legs have spikey leg armors with the side have modified pieces of the Sinanju's thrusters as the feet have pointy spike on the end.

Applebloom along with the others were shocked by the modification that Diamond Tiara did to her Gunpla. It was unbelievable to believe that this isn't the same Gyan that Kit, Sei, and Reiji fought her before.

"You like my new Gyan?" Diamond Tiara taunted as Applebloom grunted "After my defeated at the hoof of your new 'friends' along with Kit's own Gunpla, I decide to tune with it to evenly match theirs. This is my true form of my Gunpla, the Gyan Devastator!!!!"

"Sei, any ideas of what kind of Gunpla that she made?" Reiji asked him as a familiar voice was heard from the other side,

"A successor to my Gyan Vulcan."

The others turned as a brown coated colt with a unusually mane that longer that almost like a mare, wearing a purple jacket as a cutie mark is the Gyan face.

"Sazaki Susumu?" Sei sputtered at this "What are you doing here?"

"Checking to see my student . Very surprising that I able to find somepony who also a fond of the Gyan like me." he then take glance at Kit and smirk at him "And I'm surprised that you found a student to train to be you and Reiji's successor. If that your student is good as you two."

"Sei, do you know that pony?" Kit asked him, ignoring Sazaki's insult.

Sei nodded at him "He's a fighter that lives in my neighborhood back at my home world as well as the toughest fighter but his combat is too harsh to team up with him before. He also pilot the Gyan Vulcan, a newly built suit of his Gyan that me and Reiji fought before. "

Kit understand his message as they focus back on the battlefield. As the F90 Sword hover away from the Gyan Devastator as it rapid thrusting four beam sabers at the F90 Sword which using its shield then back away and fire its beam riffle only for the beam sliced by it as explosion set off. Then the Gyan Devastator charged at the F90 as it's 'hidden arms' swing its beam sabers but only for a beam riffle sliced as the F90 jump out of the way, it pull two anti air ship swords from its backpack and block each of the hidden arms' attacks while with its regular arms, it then thrust its swords at the chest only Applebloom knocks out of the way, kicking the hidden arms then use its beam shield to block it as the Gyan Devastator continue to pierce the shields.

"Pathetic, you are, Applebloom." Diamond Tiara taunting her "You think you can beat me with the Gunpla that Kit build for you? You just the same old blank flank that you and your Crusaders have no right  to find talents. So you have no chance of winning!"

Those words shocked her as with the final thrust, the F90's beam shield was broken off as with a ram from it, the F90 was toppled down on the sands near to the end of the stage.

"Applebloom!" Scootaloo shouted.

"Oh no!" Sweetie Belle shocked at this event.

"C'mon Applebloom....." Reiji muttered, gritting his teeth.

"Applebloom......" China muttered, having the same reaction as Sweetie Belle while Mr Ral, Sei, and Kit watched in disbelief as the Gyan Devastator now march towards to the F90 Sword, struggling to get up.

It's no use, what do that we Crusaders able to find our talents..........Applebloom's thoughts wonder in depression. We tried everything we can to find our talents, and still we haven't gotten one..........and who am I thinking...........tried to fight in Kit's place to stop Diamond Tiara from boot him in competition? Some friend that I am.........I guess she's right............maybe we're meant to remain blank flanks for our lifetime...........she then lowered her head, the mane cover her eyes and begin shedding some tears until a voice snapped her out,

"APPLEBLOOM, DON'T GIVE UP!!!!!"

She looked at the voice and saw Kit having a determined expression to her, "Don't let Diamond Tiara discouraged you! You can do this! We're all here for you!"

"He's right! Get up and fight!" Sei shouted.

"Yeah, show her the bonds of the Crusaders!" Reiji added.

"Go Applebloom!" China shouted.

"Applebloom!" Scootaloo smiled at her.

"Go, Applebloom!" Sweetie Belle shouted.

Applebloom was shocked that her friends kept encouraging her as she wiped her tears and glare at Diamond Tiara.

"Rggh, you think that your friends' support will win this?!" Diamond Tiara shouted as she charging at her "Time for you to fall!"

[INFINITY music begins]

As everything including time become slow, the Gyan Devastator slam all of its swords into the F90 Sword only for it disappeared, surprising the others. Then behind her, the F90 now covered in yellowish glow with the addition of little wings on the shoulders, swung its sword and cut off the hidden arms as a explosion set off.

"W-what the?!" Diamond Tiara disbelief at this as she charged back at her, block her swords, then seen three of the same machine. "Now there're three of them?!"

"Whoa! Did Applebloom split the machine into three?!" Scootaloo asked, widen her eyes at this.

"There just afterimages." Sei explained as the Crusaders take glance at him "When the F90 Sword moves at high speed, it's paint peeled off creating afterimages. That's why it's seem to split into three."

"Wow, never knew that Applebloom's Gunpla have that potential." Sweetie Belle remarked "You made her a powerful starting Gunpla, Kit."

"To tell the truth, I got help from my friends." Kit take glance at Sei, China, and Reiji which they smile back at him as they glance back at the battle.

"I will not lose to the like of you!" Diamond Tiara screamed as both Gunplas swung their swords at each others and a huge wave explosion set off.

As both blades clashed at each other, the F90 Sword kept dodging the Gyan Devastator's attack, blocking the thrust of the beam sword, while roundhouse kick at the side, losing balance as regain, the F90 Sword swing both swords then combine into one, twirl it, and swing downward towards the head but blocked by four beam sabers. As the suits begin struggling, Applebloom screamed as with her Gunpla's eyes flashed, the anti - air ship sword cut towards the four beam sabers and finally slice the Gyan in half with the explosion set off, ending the battle.

[Music Stop]

Battle Ended

As the bases dissipate both fighters along with the stage's particles, Diamond Tiara, shocked by her loss, taken look at her destroyed Gunpla, whimpering, "My......my Gyan..........my ultimate Gyan........"

"I won......." Applebloom was speechless then grew a huge smile "I won my first Gunpla Battle.........."

"Applebloom!" Both Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle shouted as they tackled her on the ground, hugging her.

"That was awesome you did!" Scootaloo comment.

"You're incredible!" Sweetie Belle added as Kit and his friends along with Mr Ral came to their side.

"Congratulation on your first victory, Applebloom." Mr Ral said, stomping his hooves as all of the crowds stomping their hooves and screamed at the most climax battle.

"You did well, Applebloom." Kit helping her get up which she shook her head.

"It was you and your friends that help me. Thanks, Kit." Applebloom said, which he was surprised at first but hold a smile. Then Applebloom checked to see if she gotten a cutie mark to which is the same result.

"Aww, even in Gunpla Battle......." Sweetie Belle complained.

"Don't worry," Reiji got their attention "I'm sure that you don't need those marks on you to show your talent. Just go for the ones you like the most."

The Crusaders were surprised at first, but they hold a smile to him as Applebloom said, "Thanks, Reiji, but still we need to find it."

As for Diamond Tiara, she was crying with river tears as Silver Spoon trying to cheer her up then Sakaki came to her side, having a neutral expression, "Diamond Tiara......."

She looked at him,fearing for the worst only for him to pat her on the back and gave her a smile, "Don't worry, you got lot of things to learn about your Gunpla. So just cheer up and accept your losses."

She was surprised at first and take glance at Kit, the Crusaders, and the others, then glance back at him with a smile, "All right, Sakaki. Thank you."

With Applebloom got her Gunpla on her hooves, only one thing that she said to it, "Thank you, F90 Sword."


"That's what happened" Kit explained to Twilight and her friends at Fluttershy's Cottage. Apparently, he and his friends came to visit the mane 6 today after the tournament "Applebloom became a champion on the Gunpla Battle Tournament and won a year supply of Gunplas and to our surprised, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon respected the Crusaders in their school instead of bullying them."

"Well dang, no wonder there's a bunch of Gunplas in her room." Applejack commented "I even got surprised when I open her door and 'boom', I got washed by a bunch of them.But I got to say, you and your friends able to help m'ah sister. Thanks."

"Yeah, but Reiji is the one who also taught her how to battle well." Kit explained which she glance at him, holding a scowl expression.

Kit sensed it, place his hoof on her shoulder, "Listen, I know you're still mad at him, but if wasn't for him, none of this would happen. Just at least put your bitterness aside and make a fresh start."

She looked at Kit before take glance at Reiji then sighed and walk towards him and said, "Well if Kit trusted you so much........and Applebloom gotten stronger........." she raised her hoof which surprised Reiji "then I guess we should make a fresh start then."

Reiji shake her hoof, nodded, "Of course. And sorry about calling you Country Hick."

That made Applejack surprised and smile at him, "Don't worry, if u get hungry, then you and your friends can come to Sweet Apples Acres anytime."

Reiji nodded as the girls and the others smiled at Applejack's distrust of Reiji now under the bridge. Kit then take glances at the girls, "So what happen at Sweet Apple Acres?"

"We need to help Applejack take care of a pest problem." Rarity responded.

"Pest problem? What kind?" Sei wonder.

"A bat problem. And trust me, you don't want to know what happen........" Twilight responded taking glance at Fluttershy who was blushing a bit, leaving the others confused but decide not to question further.

"How we celebrate our stronger friendship with a nice ripe juicy apple?" Applejack hold a apple in front of Fluttershy who was surprised.

"STAND BACK!" Pinkie with vampire fangs came from the middle, surprising them "I want to suck its juice!"

As she take a bit on the apple, her vampire fangs was stuck came out revealing only a toy and taking glance at everypony which the others laughed at her antics.


As night comes, everypony went back home, only China and Fluttershy were at the cottage. Fluttershy prepare a bed for China as she set her stuff down.

"Thanks for letting me stay here, Fluttershy." China said, taking off her glasses.

"Oh, it's no problem. It was surprising that I met you when I found this." Fluttershy said, holding a Gunpla box with a picture of a teddy bear fighting "I was wonder if um........"

"Don't worry, I'll help you tomorrow." China smile at her which she smile back.

In the Carousel Boutique, Sweetie Belle was setting her bed, getting ready to sleep she take a glance on the back of the door, lock it, and went under the bed, pulled out three Gunplas boxes and turn on some lights on her lamp and begin working on it.

I hope that tomorrow.........Aila can help me..........creating my Gunpla........Sweetie Belle thoughts raced
