//-------------------------------------------------------// My Little Amazing Race -by battlefieldpony- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Meet the Teams!/Rules/Twist! //-------------------------------------------------------// Meet the Teams!/Rules/Twist! Phil Keoghan stood at the center of Ponyville. "I can't believe I was sent out here for the show, but man, the contestants..." He laughed to himself. "This is gonna be one heck of a season." Then a camera man yelled at him. "Phil! Your on in 5...4...3...2...1..." The camera man pointed at him. Here I am. Standing in the center of Ponyville. This little town is home to the elements of harmony. But today. It is a start, in a race around the world. Where 12 teams will race for 1,000,00 bits. This is the Amazing Race. Youtube Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bRNoZr8JeU) Before I introduce the teams in more detail, I must set the rules. The teams must stay on the course, which is given by the clues. The clues are in clue boxes, marked red and yellow. Route Info tells the team where to go next. Detours give the teams 2 options on what to do next. Then there are Roadblocks. Roadblocks require ONE team member to do a task. It will either be a mental or physical challenge. The other member may not help. The Roadblock will give a clue on what they will be doing, for example, "Who's ready to get dirty?" U-Turns are where the tensions will flare, but they will not be on every leg. A team can U-Turn another team, which means that the team that got U-Turned must go back and complete the other Detour. Some U-Turns can be used by 2 teams. You can see who U-Turned you unless it is a BLIND U-Turn. When teams arrive, they will win a prize if they are first, and may or may not be eliminated if they get last. If a team gets last but not eliminated, they must complete a speed bump, another challenge, in the next leg. As always, the last team standing wins 1,000,000 bits and the Amazing Race! Now lets meet the teams! Team: Celestia and Luna Relation: Princesses/Sisters "Greetings, my name is Celestia. I am ruler of Equestria and I raise the sun everyday." "I am Luna, Celestia is my sister. I am the 2nd princess if Equestria. I raise the moon." "Luna is stronger than me, so she will be doing the physical challenges."

Welcome all, to the Amazing Race!" All the teams cheered and yelled. "BRING IT ON!" yelled Rainbow Dash. "Haha, I'm glad your excited, but first, there is a reason you should race your butts off in this first leg. The winner of the first leg wins the Express Pass! If you have this, you can skip a detour. Also, if you win the first leg, you can win 2,000,000 BITS at the end if you come in first!" The teams also cheered at this. "Alright, the world is waiting...." I raised my arm and the teams got in a running postition. "On your marks, get set, WAIT WAIT WAIT. Two more things." I snapped my fingers and the wings and horns on unicorns and Pegasi went away. They all look stunned. "Haha! Thats right, no magic! No flying! How did I do that? Lets just say where I come from the hand is quicker than the eye... And for the other thing. One team, will not even make it pass the starting line....." The teams stood there, stunned... "Thats right, one of you are about to be eliminated...." NEXT TIME ON THE AMAZING RACE: Teams fight to even make it pass the starting line. Alliances will be formed. Tensions will already start to flare. And the teams guts are pushed to the limits at a challenge in Manehatten. Youtube Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bRNoZr8JeU) //-------------------------------------------------------// Stage 1: Madness in Manehatten Part 1 //-------------------------------------------------------// Stage 1: Madness in Manehatten Part 1 PREVIOUSLY ON THE AMAZING RACE 12 teams were introduced to the Amazing Race, where they were ready to race from Ponyville to a location they do not know. But they were introduced to a surprise... FLASHBACK TO EPISODE 1 "One of you will not even make it pass the starting line..." The teams stood their, stunned.... BACK TO THIS EPISODE 12 teams are still in the race, but not for long. Who will make it pass the starting line? Who will be eliminated? And who will win, the Amazing Race? Youtube Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bRNoZr8JeU) "One of you, will not even make it pass the starting line..." The teams stood their, stunned. "I am holding a clue which you will see in many legs." https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcR5_ae3OELK_MMee3g4_1nsv4jbEZ4Xr1ceihVLwjHsNWeuOiMptg "It will be in this bin that can fit EVERYONE here. The twist, all the clue in the bin look like the one I am holding. However, they won't have the words 'Amazing Race' on them, they will be blank. You must find ONE that has the words 'Amazing Race' for your team. Both team members are allowed in the bin. When you find the clue, bring it to me, and I will give you another one that has "Route Info" in it. The last team to give me a clue, will be eliminated. All right, the world is waiting...." I raised my arm, and the ponies got in a running postition. "Travel safe.... On your marks.... get set.... GO!" "Comon Flam!" "Hurry up Spike!" All the teams jumped into the pit and started digging. Some were throwing punches, others were actually LOOKING for the clue. 1 hour, 23 minutes, 54 seconds later.. "SHINING!" "WHAT?!" "I FOUND IT!" Shining and Candence ran to Phil. "Congrats, here is your clue." "Thanks!" Soon, more teams came. "Flim and Flam, here is your clue. *10 minutes later* "Mr. and Mrs. Cake, here is your clue. And look! Here comes 2 more teams! Twilight and Spike, here is your clue and Rainbow Dash and Scootalo, here is your clue." Looking at my watch, I yelled to the teams. "6 SPOTS ARE LEFT!" " "APPLEBLOOM, AH' FOUND THE CLUE!" "WAY TO GO SIS'!" "Applejack and Applebloom, here is your clue." After them came Discord and Chrysalis, Derpy and 'The Doc.' Vinyl and Octavia, and Pinkie and Fluttershy. "ONE MORE SPOT!" It was down between Celestia and Luna agianst Diamond Tiria and Silver Spoon. "Sister! I think I see it!" "Grab it Luna!" "I got it Celestia!" "Silver! I found it! Lets go!" I watched as the final team stepped on the map. They looked very pleased with themselves. "Celestia and Luna, you have earned the final spot! Here is your clue!" "YES!" Sad music played as Diamond Tiria and Silver Spoon stepped on the map. "Diamons Tiria and Silver Spoon.... I am sorry to tell you you are the last team to find the clue. And that you have been eliminated from the race." The two just stood there, not saying a word. Finally, Silver spoke up. "We had fun while it lasted. I am glad we were able to run this short race for us with my best friend. Being here with her is better than  1,000,000 bits. You can never buy a best friend." "I agree with Silver. We came in looking to be eliminated towards the beginning so it was just a matter of time for us." The two walked off over the horizon while Celestia and Luna read their clue. "Make your way to Manehatten, the first train leaves at 7:10 PM, the second at 11:00 PM. We only have 30 minutes to make the first train! Lets go Luna!" 29 minutes later Luna's PoV "Celestia! Hurry the train is about the leave!" The train blew its whistle. "Hurry! Please! Wait for us!" It was no use, the train left. "Luna, I'm here." "Celestia.... we missed the train... We must wait till 11:00 PM now...." "Crap..." Octavia's PoV "Vinly! Vinyl!" "What?" "Get all the teams! Look!" All the teams stood their, stunned, then Rainbow Dash started laughing. "BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! THEY MISSED THEIR TRAIN! THEY HAVE TO WAIT TILL 11:00 PM NOW!" With that, all the teams started laughing. Time: 11:00 PM Location: Manehatten Shining Armor's PoV The train came to a stop... "Cadence! Come on! We have to find the clue!" "Ima coming! Wait! Look over their! By the exit of the station! The clue!" She ripped it open. "Make your way to the Statue of Liberty... TAXI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Standings so far: 1st: Shining Armor and Candence 2nd: Octavia and Vinyl 3rd: Flim and Flam 4th: Twilight and Spike 5th: Applejack and Applebloom 6th: Derpy and "The Doc" 7th: Mr. and Mrs. Cake 8th: Discord and Chrysalis 9th: Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy 10th: Rainbow Dash and Scootalo 11th/Last: Celestia and Luna Vinyl's PoV Vinyl and Octavia jumped out of the cab. "Octavia! Clue marker over here!" They rushed to it. "Wait their is a sign..." "Opens at 8:00 AM... DANG IT!" Soon, all the teams (except Celestia and Luna) arrived. "Hey Octavia." said Spike, "Whats going on?" "It opens at 8:00 AM, guess we have to set up camp here." "That also means Celestia and Luna might catch up." Added Mrs. Cake. Celestia's PoV "Well Luna... This may be it, we got lucky the first time, but our luck may run out." "I agree sister, but this was fun, even though we are going to probably be eliminated, I still had fun." "Me two sis." 3 Hours and 50 minutes later "Celestia, wake up... We are here." "Alright Luna... *yawn* I'm coming... There's the clue box..." "Make your way to the Statue of Liberty... TAXI!" "Luna, why so loud, we are in last and have no hope of catching up to the other teams..." "Yes we do!" "Why and how is that?" "The Statue of Liberty closes at 10:30 PM and opens at 8:00 AM!" "REALLY?!!?!?!?! WE CAN STILL CATCH UP! TAXI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Pinkie Pie's PoV "Ooooooooooo! Oooooooo! Guys! Look! It's Celestia and Luna!" "Pinkie..." Fluttershy muttered, "We don't care, all that matters ther team to run agianst.." 8:00 AM A worker opened the gate, and the teams ran inside. Twilight opened her clue. "Roadblock, who is ready to go for a dive?" In this roadblock, teams must do a Earth Pony favorite. Diving Competions. First, the must go to the top of the Statue of Liberty, once to the top, they must do a fancy dive into the marked area. Then, three judges will judge their dive. However, the score must be greater than 17. If it is 16 or less, they must climb to the top, and jump agian. When a team member gets a 17 or greater, a diving coach will hand them their next clue. "Spike... We have a problem..." "What is that...." "Neither of us can swim...." TO BE CONTINUED NEXT TIME ON THE AMAZING RACE: Twilight and Spike run into a problem and try to find a easy way out. "Wanna see if money can convince them to give us a clue?" Youtube Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bRNoZr8JeU) //-------------------------------------------------------// Stage 1: Madness in Manehatten Part 2 //-------------------------------------------------------// Stage 1: Madness in Manehatten Part 2 LAST TIME ON THE AMAZING RACE Teams started their race around the world trying to survive and make it pass the starting line. While some teams found their clue, Diamond Tiria and Silver Spoon feel short. FLASHBACK "Diamond Tiria and Silver Spoon, I'm sorry to tell you you are the last team to find the clue, and that you have been eliminated from the race. Celestia and Luna just barely made it past the starting line, but at a cost. ANOTHER FLASHBACK "I am here Luna." "Celestia... We missed our train..." "Crap.." And at the roadblock, Twilight and Spike ran into a big problem. LAST FLASHBACK I SWEAR "Spike, we have a problem..." "What is it?" "Neither of us can swim.." Can Spike and Twilight get over their fears? Who will win the Express Pass, get a chance at 2,000,000 bits, and who will be eliminated, next? Find out right now, on the Amazing Race. Youtube Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bRNoZr8JeU) "Spike...." "Yeah..." "We have a problem..." "What is it?" "Neither of us can swim..." The two just stood at each other while Luna, Shining Armor, Discord, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Mr. Cake, Vinyl Scratch, 'The Doc,' and Flam went up to try their best, Twilight got an idea. "Spike, why don't we see if money can buy our way out of this?" "Isn't that cheating?" "Yeah, but Phil won't know because he has no idea what we are doing!" "Ok, you go up and pay him 500 bits, it better work cause that's all the money we have for this leg." Twilight went up and watched everyone dive. No one got a 17. So when no one was looking, she paid the person running the Roadblock the 500 bits. The roadblock guy looked suspicious, but when Twilight, ermm, umm, kissed him, he gave her the clue. "Spike! I got it!" "Way to go Twilight!" When Twilight ran down the steps however, Shining and Flam got suspicious. "Flam, how did Twilight get the clue?" "No idea, she must have cheated. But the rules state that if you cheat, you have to wait one hour before you can check in..." Phil's (the host) PoV: "You will regret this Twilight...." Twilight's PoV: "Spike! We pulled that off! I don't believe it!" "Shut up and read the clue, teams are finishing..." "Oh yeah, make your way to the Empire State Building to find your next clue. Let's go Spike!" Soon after that, teams were completing the challenge. But Twilight and Spike made it to the Empire State Building first. "Well Spike, I thought the Empire State Building was supposed to be in New Hoof City, guess I was wrong." Twilight opened the clue. "Route Info, make your way to the harbor. Lets go Spike! We can win this!" When they left, teams were arriving, but they had a dirty look on their face... Discords PoV\ "Comon Chrysalis! You can do it! You got a 14 last time!" "I'm trying! It just they are so picky." "We are in LAST! Lets go now!" Chrysalis took a deep breath, and jumped.. She did 2 frontflips, a twirl, and a perfect dive and made almost no splash. She looked at the judges, and got a 20! "DISCORD! I DID IT!" The diving instructor gave her her next clue. "Route info, blah blah blah, ok, lets go. We are too far behind to catch up...." "We had fun though.." Discord gave Chrysalis a kiss on the cheek, and Chrysalis blushed wildly. Spike's PoV "Twilight! There's Phil!" Twilight and Spike ran over to Phil. "Twilight and Spike... YOU ARE TEAM NUMBER ONE!" "YES!!!" "WOO HOO!" "HOWEVER." The duo stopped cheering at once. "I understand you cheated and payed for your next clue. And in case you are wondering how I knew, those camera guys following you, I can see what you record. So now, you must wait 1 hour before I can check you in." "Not fair!" yelled Twilight. "Rules are rules, now go sit over there!" 10 minutes later Soon, another team came. They stepped on the mat.... "Flim and Flam, you are team number two." "Thats OK." "Yeah, we will take it." "However, Twilight and Spike cheated, so you are team number ONE! And you know have the express pass and have a chance for 2,000,000 bits!"  The duo stood their stunned, then Flam started going crazy. "YES! HA! THATS WHAT YOU GET FOR CHEATING! WOOO HOOO. WE GONNA WIN THE AMAZING RACE!" "Bro," said Flim, "Calm your tits." "Ok... Wait, what are tits.." Soon more teams came. "Celestia and Luna, you are team number two!" "Pinkie and Fluttershy, you are team number three!" "Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo, you are team number four." "Mr. and Mrs. Cake, you are team number five!" "Shining Armor and Cadence, you are team number six." "Not good, but we will take it." "Vinyl Scratch and Octavia, you are team number seven!" "Applejack and Applebloom, you are team number eight!" "Phew, just made it, ehh Sugarcube?" "You got that right sis'!" "Derpy and 'The Doc,' you are team number nine! Discords PoV "Well, we are here. Lets go find Phil." Sad music played at Discord and Chrysalis stepped onto the mat. "Discord. Chrysalis. You are the last team to arrive." "It's ok, we had fun." "That's right Discord." "HOWEVER." Discord and Chrysalis froze. "Spike and Twilight are having to wait a 1 hour penalty for cheating so you are team number TEN! You are still in the race!" Chrysalis spoke up first. "I am stunned. This goes to show anything can happen on the amazing race!" Phil's PoV Agian, sad music played as Twilight and Spike stepped onto the mat. "Twilight and Spike, I am sorry to tell you you are the last team to arrive....And that you have been eliminated from the race." "I am glad I was able to do this with my favorite little dragon." "And I am glad I was able to do this with Twilight. We both had fun." Twilight and Spike walked off into the city. NEXT TIME ON THE AMAZING RACE Teams travel to Las Pegasus, where Flim and Flam dominate, and Shining struggles. "THIS IS BUCKING STUPID. WE BETTER GET SENT HOME CADENCE."
