Part 7Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 8 (Epilogue)Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 1It was a bright sunny day at Canterlot High. Everyone was happy because for two months there had been no evil monster. "Hi ya!" Rainbow Dash practiced her karate on the middle of school grounds. Sunset Shimmer was texting Twilight Sparkle because they had upgraded the book to a pair of cellphones using magic. "Are you sure you don't want to give it a try?" Rainbow asked Sunset, tugging at the red mask around her face. "Karate is fun!" "You're not even referencing the right type of martial arts," Sunset responded, her eyes glued to the screen. "They practice ninjitsu." "... Shut up!" "Fine." Sunset smiled as she put her phone down. "I'll give it a try!" "Sunset Shimmer!" Sunset and Rainbow froze as they heard a familiar voice. When they turned around, they saw three familiar people walking their way. "... Shut up," Rainbow gawked. Meanwhile, on the other side of the school, Pinkie Pie and Rarity were playing against Tennis Match and Lyra Heartstrings at a game of tennis. While neither Rarity or Lyra were particularly skilled, both Pinkie and Tennis posses excellent skills and had tied the game up. "PONY POWER UP!" Pinkie Pie screamed, slamming her racket at the ball. She got her pony tail and pony ears and scored a lot of points. "No fair!" Tennis Match whined while Rarity and Lyra looked at Pinkie in shock. "Pinkie, how did you do that, darling?" Rarity asked curiously. "No way!" Tennis Match interrupted. "I need to do that, too! PONY POWER UP!" She mimicked Pinkie Pie and ears and a tail sprouted our of her short green hair too. "I'm so jealous!" Lyra complained. Finally, on the other side of campus, Applejack and Fluttershy were practicing archery. "This is so fun!" Fluttershy exclaimed, drawing her bow. Applejack winked at her. "I told ya it would be fun to pick up a sport!" Suddenly just as she released her apple-themed arrow, Principal Celestia walked outside. "Applejack! Fluttershy!" she exclaimed. "I've decided to host another school event, the Friendship Game! I know you two are really popular and magical so try to keep the evil spirits away from this one, alright?" She winked. Applejack and Fluttershy gasped. "Of course, Principal Celestia!" Applejack assured her. "We'll go tell Sunset Shimmer right away!" "You don't think she meant a parody of the Hunger Games, do you?" Fluttershy asked as they ran away. Applejack didn't answer her. When they got to Sunset Shimmer, they were surprised Pinkie and Rarity were also there, dragging along Lyra Heartstrings and Tennis Match. Tennis Match and Pinkie had pony ears, which was weird. "Why are they here?" Tennis Match yelled. "Who?" Applejack asked. "Applejack! Fluttershy!" Rainbow Dash cried. "The Dazzlings are back!" "What?!" Fluttershy and Applejack exclaimed at the same time. They moved to see Adagio Dazzle, Sonata Dusk, and Aria Blaze standing next to Sunset Shimmer. Aria looked grumpy, Sonata looked pouty, and Adagio looked uncomfortable. "They say they're sorry," Sunset explained. "Actually, we just need money!" Sonata cut in. Aria grabbed her. "Shut up, Sonata," she growled. The six friends looked at each other, then at the Dazzlings, then at the girls who weren't in their group. "See ya later!" Pinkie Pie waved at Tennis Match and Lyra, who were obviously displeased. They grumbled as they left the conversation. "Should we give them a second chance?" Rarity questioned. "Who votes yes?" Sunset asked, raising her hand. Pinkie Pie and Rarity raised their hands. Applejack, and Rainbow Dash glared at them. Fluttershy looked down at her archery-outfit sandals. Sunset Shimmer sighed "We're helping them, alright?" "Yay!" Sonata clapped her hands. "You won't regret this," Adagio told Sunset with a little smirk. ~ Meanwhile, ten girls and a dude stood alone in an alleyway. "Okay guys," said a girl with dark blue hair and vivid yellow eyes. "Even though we're not magical beings, I think we should get magic anyways." "Good idea," agreed the one dude. "Very good idea," added another girl approvingly. "But how will we do it?" queried another girl with luminous green eyes. "We'll become a soccer team!" suggested a small girl with curly indigo hair. "Perfect idea," agreed the first girl. "And I'll be team captain." ~ Meanwhile, human Twilight came and became the tenth member of the group. This is mostly how the exchange went. "You look just like our friend from an alternate dimension!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed when she showed up. "You look like my girlfriend from another dimension!" Flash Sentry added. "Twilight isn't your girlfriend!" Rarity accused him. "She friend zoned you, remember?" Then Flash went off into a corner and cried to himself because nobody liked him. "Be our friend?" Sunset Shimmer asked, holding a hand out to Twilight. She shrugged. "I've spent my entire life studying magic because a tattoo on mg arm told me to. I've seen weirder." She grabbed Sunset Shimmer's hand. "That's so sweet!" Sonata exclaimed. "I have to admit I agree with you," Aria added. "What's sweet?" Adagio asked, confused. "We're a group of eleven people now!" Applejack exclaimed. "This calls for a party!" "We forgot about pony Twilight!" Rainbow Dash yelled, waving a salad tong in the air. "In the name of ninjitsu, we must bring her to our Sportsapalooza party!" "Here here!" Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Sonata Dusk, Aria Blaze, Human Twilight, Pinkie Pie, Adagio Dazzle, and Sunset Shimmer yelled. Author's Note This is 100% legit. Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 2The ten girls stood outside the portal. Sunset had texted Twilight and they were now waiting for the purple being to come through the mirror. "I think she's coming!" shouted Rainbow Dash as the mirror began to ripple. That was because Twilight was coming through, everyone knew that except for Human Twilight, who had taken her labcoat off and let her bun down so she looked more presentable. Rarity had also brushed her hair because she was like that. When Twilight came through, everybody cheered. "You're here, Twilight!" Rarity exclaimed. "I trust Sunset has told you the going-ons of today?" "She sure did!" Twilight responded, standing up. "I can't wait to meet the human version of myself!" "Hey there!" Human Twilight exclaimed, walking up to her double. "I'm Twilight. You must be Twilight!" "Pleasure to meet you, Twilight," Twilight responded, curtsying in her mini-skirt. "The pleasure is all mine, Twilight," human Twilight answered. The two girls giggled. "Ugh, can we please just give the human a nickname?" Aria groaned. Everyone turned to look at her strangely. "I'm just trying to make a contribution!" Aria protested, folding her arms crossly. The rest of the girls looked at each other. "Oh, alright," Applejack agreed. "Shall we call her 'Lavender?'" Rarity proposed. "Silly, Trixie's friend is named Lavender!" Pinkie Pie giggled. "I think she's a 'Pound Party Cake' kinda gal!" She hung an arm around human Twilight's neck. Human Twilight stared at her, annoyed. "Seriously? I can pick my own nickname!" she commented. Nobody paid attention. Soon they were shouting out random nicknames for their friend. "Purpleus butterflyus!" "Science Dudette!" "Apple Turnover the Fourth!" "The Lady Who Friend-zoned Senpai! Oh wait, wrong Twilight..." "Purple Taco!" "Twin Freak." "The Girl with Terrible Hair." CHIMI CHERRY CHONGA!" "Humanlight Sparkle?" "EVERYBODY BE QUIET!" Human Twilight shouted. Everybody stopped yelling and turned to look at her. "My name," Human Twilight began slowly, "shall be Glasses." "That's not a very- LOOK! A NEW STUDENT!" Rainbow Dash yelled, pointing at a new girl walking past. She had pink, silver, and blue hair tied up in two buns. Her skin was tan, and she had purple eyes. "Anytime a new student enrolls, they're always trouble," Sunset judged. "Let's find out who she is!" "But what about our Sportsapalooza party?" Pinkie Pie pouted. "It'll have to wait," Twilight and Glasses told her in unison. "In the name of nijitsu!" Rainbow Dash cried. "What, is that your battle cry now?" Applejack asked, showing how unimpressed she was by faking a yawn. "Guys, hurry up!" Adagio yelled. Applejack and Rainbow Dash ran after the group. Sunset and Glasses reached the new girl first. "Hey, what's your name?" Glasses demanded. "What are you doing here?" Sunset asked. The girl looked surprised. She even took a step back in surprise. "My name's Silver Arrow!" she told them. "I'm new here!" "What do you know about good fruit punch?" Sonata asked suspiciously. Aria whacked her on the head. "What she means to say is, 'How do we know Silver Arrow is your real name?'" Rainbow Dash explained, narrowing her eyes. Silver Arrow, or whatever her real name was, rolled her eyes. "I have documents to prove it. Also, the buck on my belt is a silver S." She passed some papers to Twilight. Twilight leafed through them. "Well, your paperwork seems to be in order," she commented, handing everything back. "Wait, why are you-" Applejack began. "-carrying around my papers? I'm new. Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna need them," Silver Arrow responded coolly. "See ya guys around, okay? Butterfly chick, Apple chick, you have archery gear on? Sweet!" Her hair bobbed as she clapped her hands. "Archery is my thing! See ya 'round." The new girl waved and jogged off. "Are we really identified by our symbols?" Fluttershy asked timidly. "Girls, I just realized that Pinkie Pie still has her pony ears and tail," Rarity commented. Everyone looked over at Pinkie. A few minutes later, Twilight and Glasses decided Pinkie was permanently stuck with rainbow streaks in her hair and pony ears and a tail. "How are we going to explain this to her parents?" Sunset wondered, kicking a rock. "Weeeeeeee!" Pinkie Pie did somersaults around the group. "Dang, this is one weird day," Adagio Dazzle commented. "Is this how it always goes?" "More or less," Fluttershy answered. "So I don't think she's gonna be a villain," Pinkie Pie babbled, "although I feel like she's a goddess or something, ya know? Because Fluttershy and Applejack have all those Greek outfits and stuff on!" "Pinkie, stop yer rambling," Applejack commented. "We're gonna go do somethin' normal now. Like what?" "Go to class?" Aria suggested. "You guys don't do that a lot." Everyone stared at her. She folded her arms. "Just a suggestion," Aria huffed. "Hey, Twilight!" Everyone cringed as Flash Sentry came running up. "I see you're back in town! To see me, huh? Rarity said you friend-zoned me, but-" Twilight held up a hand to silence him. "I'm sorry, Flash, but I did friend zone you. I just don't see any potential in our relationship." "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!" everybody cried when Twilight rejected Flash. Flash's eyes went wide. He considered himself a popular guy. He couldn't believe Twilight would dump him! "I- I!" Flash struggled for words. Everyone watched him silently. Only Pinkie Pie felt slightly sorry for him. "I'll get my revenge!" Flash shouted. "I'd smack you if couldn't be arrested for that." "Please leave," Glasses commented, folding her arms. Everyone else folded their arms too. Flash stormed off. "That was fun," Rainbow Dash commented. "I like rejecting dudes!" "Let's go get some pizza!" Sonata suggested. "Pizza?" Rainbow Dash asked eagerly. A look of horror crossed everyone's face. "Why did you accidentally reference that franchise?" Applejack asked, shaking Sonata. "In the name of ninjitsu!" Rainbow proclaimed, pumping a fist up in the air. She chased everyone inside. Meanwhile, Flash was stalking off, hands stuffed into his pockets, his eyes conveniently closed. At least until- "Oof!" Flash opened his eyes when he bumped into someone. She was a girl, older than him, with dark blue hair that was bunched up in a ponytail. Her luminous yellow eyes bored into his soul. She wore a tight blue sports outfit. Behind her was legion of similar girls, and also one dude. "Hey kid," she said, leaning in. "Ya know where we can find some magic?" Author's Note Spoiler: Flash Sentry gets character development as a villain! And he has a role in this movie as well! Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 3Flash Sentry blinked. "Uh..." He stalled, unable to come up with an answer at the moment. Gazes of green, yellow, blue, and orange seemed to intensify. Flash felt beads of sweat roll down his forehead. "Well?' prompted the obvious leader. "Listen, I, uh-" Flash was really uncomfortable with those eyes staring straight at him. Suddenly, he rembered. Twilight. "Yeah, I do, actually," Flash replied, trying to look fierce. "Then can you please tell us where it's located?" snapped a girl in the back of the group. "We don't have all day!" "Silence, Nightingale!" retorted the leader, holding a hand up to quiet her companion. She turned her attention back to Flash. "Like she said, we're on the lookout for some magic. Care to tell us about it, pretty boy?" Flash's cheeks turned scarlet. "Jeez, I'm not that pretty," he muttered, though he thought the opposite. Clearing his throat, Flash stood up straight. "I could probably tell you," he answered. "My name's Flash. What's yours?" The girl's expression morphed into one of irritation. "Windlash," she replied shortly. "And no, I am not giving away my phone number. Come on, Flash. Where's the magic?" When Windlash stepped forward menacingly, Flash decided to retreat. "Okay, okay," he agreed. "Let me tell you everything. It started with these jerk girls named Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle. I had the misfortune of going out with both of them..." *~* "I love pizza!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, chomping down into a piece. Everyone else was eating pizza, except Rainbow Dash. Rainbow was rambling about ninjitsu again. "Gals, I just remembered Principal Celestia mentioned a sports thing," Applejack commented. "Ya think we should head down ta' the gymnasium to see what that was about?" "How do you know she's in the gymnasium?" Aria asked crossly. "Shouldn't she be in her office, filing paperwork or something?" "Oh, quit whining!" Adagio reminded her. "Why don't we go?" "Maybe that new girl Silver Arrow will be there!" Pinkie added excitedly. "New friend!" All the girls jumped up and ran down the hall to the gym. Even Rainbow, who had stopped hallucinating after the pizza. Even Aria, who still was skeptical about her new lifestyle. Sure enough, Principal Celestia was in the gym, along with Vice Principal Luna. Random students where there, too. "Hey, Twilight Sparkle! Other Twilight Sparkle! Popular magic girls!" Tennis Match came running up to them, pointing at her pony ears that were still on her. "These things are still on!" she complained, tugging at them. "I mean, they're cool and all, but not permanently!" "Sorry," Glasses told her with a shrug. "We've concluded that the effects are permanent." Tennis Match's eyelid twitched. "WHAT?" she cried, stomping her foot. "Why couldn't this happen to Lyra?" "Oh, quit whining!" Adagio muttered. "Principal Celestia's about to speak!" Sure enough, Principal Celestia began to speak. "Greetings, students! Vice Principal Luna and I have been monitoring trends about little girls' intrests in the past few months. So, in hopes we can gain more enrollment since half the freshman class dropped out after the Fall Formal and Battle of the Bands, we've decided to hitch onto those trends!" Most of the students cheered. "What about us dudes?" Brawly Beats yelled. Nobody paid attention to him. "After seeing how girls like the Nerf Rebel toy line and Hunger Games series, we decided to create the Friendship Games!" Vice Principal Luna added. More students cheered. "Wasn't there a Friendship Games because there was a war and it was a replacement for the Neighlympic Games?" Scribble Dee protested. Nobody paid attention to her. "There will be lots of sports featured, but archery will take center stage because of aforementioned reasons. Others sports will be hockey and soccer," Principal Celestia said calmly. "Archery's our thing, Fluttershy!" Applejack exclaimed, giving her friend a friendly punch in the arm. "What? No martial arts?" Rainbow Dash whined, ripping off her red mask. "This is a G-rated high school," Twilight reminded her. Rainbow Dash's eye twitched. "Since when?" she grumbled. "Hey!" Nobody had noticed that Tennis Match had ran up onto the stage. "What about tennis?" "What about football?" screamed Teddy. "What about baseball?" protested heath burns. "I don't have a problem with soccer!" Cloudy Kicks shouted out. Soon, half the school as shouting out the names of sports. "I feel like everything I do ends up in a shouting match," Sunset moaned, holding her head in her hands. "I feel like everything I do makes me end up with lunatics," Aria grumbled, rolling her eyes. "EVERYBODY STOP!" Everyone froze and looked up at the new voice. The Mane 11, as they now called themselves, looked up at Silver Arrow, who stood on stage with her hands on her hips. "This is completely irrelevant, but I just realized I forgot Spike," Twilight commented in the silence. "SHHHH!" Everyone shushed her. "Hey, I'm Silver Arrow, and I think you guys need to chill out," Silver Arrow said. "Come on, you need to focus on archery! The best sport, am I right? Let's make fletch happen!" "What does that mean?" Rarity whispered to Applejack and Fluttershy. Both shrugged. "She's probably one of those people who likes to make references wherever she goes," Fluttershy reasoned. "You know, like Rainbow Dash?" Applejack added humorously. Rarity nodded, understanding now. Silver Arrow stepped off the stage, her purple eyes sparkling like the silver streaks in her hair. Suddenly, everyone heard the doors of the gym thrust open. The Mane 11 turned around to see a large group of girls - and one guy - walk into the gym. "Who are they?" muttered an athlete named Lightning Dust. "Wait- is that Flash Sentry with them?" Glasses realized, noticing the blue-haired rocker next to the other guy. Sonata, Adagio, and Rarity giggled. "They kinda looked threatening before," Sonata admitted, "but now they just look silly." Whispers and murmurs rustled through the crowd as the kids passed. They all seemed to be of the same color scheme, a dark blue, which made Flash stick out like a sore thumb. As he passed them, he sent Twilight a death glare. "Oh no," Twilight muttered. Th group gathered up on stage. Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna, to nobody's surprise, didn't question that. One girl took the microphone in her hand. "My name's Windlash," she began, sweeping her hand behind her, "and these are the Shadowcolts. We're here to challenged you Canterlot High Students to battle of the bands!" "That was two months ago!" Sweetie Belle shouted out. Windlash glared at her. "A Sportsapalooza, then," she corrected herself. "The official name of these events is the 'Friendship Games,'" Trixie pointed out. Windlash's yellow eyes flashed with anger. "Fine!" she yelled. "Whatever! Friendship Games, whatever! We're having a soccer match!" "No soccer," Silver Arrow corrected. "We just decided on archery." Windlash threw her hands up in the air. "Descent, take over for me," she mumbled, thrusting the microphone at the dude. He gladly took it. "Seriously, kids," he told them. "Any sports game you challenge us to, we'll win." "Bring it!" Rainbow Dash shouted. Author's Note I give you Silver Arrow art! Where the reference came from Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 4"So, which sport shall we compete in first?" Windlash asked smugly. She and the Shadowcolts now stood opposite of the Mane 11 outside. All unimportant students stood on the sidelines, watching. "Hello?" Silver Arrow waved her navy bow in the air. "Archery, of course!" "Be quiet," Flash snapped at her. "I think I have a way out of this," Twilight whispered to Rarity. She stepped closer to Flash. "Uh, Flash, sweetie? These girls - and guy - seem like bad news. Can you please tell them to stop whatever they're doing? For me?" She batted her eyes, hoping he'd agree. Flash folded his arms. "It isn't gonna be like that, Twilight. I don't even know what I saw in you in the first place!" he snapped. "Flash, stop speaking to the enemy," Windlash directed. Flash immediately turned to her. "Right away!" he replied. Glasses smirked. "Girls," she murmured so only the friend group could hear, "I think Flash is smitten with Windlash!" Rarity and Adagio rolled their eyes. Everyone else giggled at the hilarity of that. "Enough talk!" Rainbow Dash announced, smashing her fists in an excited manner, "let's just go already!" "Your pick," taunted a member of the Shadowcolts with a long black braid. "Pinkie! Sport!" Rainbow commanded. "Cricket!" Pinkie replied confidently, pulling a cricket ball out of her rainbowfied hair. "Cricket?" yelled a nearby student named Zero in disbelief. "Nobody understands cricket! You gotta understand crumpets to understand cricket!" Pinkie Pie grinned and waved the ball in his face. "Oh, believe me!" she replied, "I know everything about crumpets!" *~* "How did they beat us at cricket?" Rainbow Dash panted when the game was over. She wiped the sweat off on her red mask. "Man, why couldn't they be good guys?" "Aw, don't give up!" Adagio encouraged them sarcastically. "We still have all day to show them up!" "Archery!" Silver Arrow interrupted. Fluttershy and Applejack gripped their bows in hands. "Not now," they told her. Silver Arrow rolled her eyes and stomped off. "You guys are mean girls!" she called over her shoulder. The Mane 11 looked back at the Shadowcolts. They all were in a triumphant pose. Windlash wore a gloating smirk. "She reminds me of me two months ago," Adagio muttered, folding her arms, obviously reluctant to admit the fact. "So, what else do you wanna play?" Descent asked. "Cheer leading?" "Hey, you don't insult cheer leading!" Pinkie screamed, jumping in the air. "I challenge Descent to a one-on-one cheerleading competition!" Everyone gasped. Descent's eyes dilated. "W-what?" "Hey, these are team sports!" Windlash interrupted. "Not individual challenged!" "What? Are you scared?" Pinkie taunted, twirling a lock of hair around her finger. "N-no!" Descent retorted, stomping his foot in protest. "Let's have this contest!" Three minutes later, Descent was dressed in a miniskirt, his hair tied up in two ponytails. Pinkie stood across from him, dressed in a similar outfit, a pair of pom poms in her hands. "Soooo? Do you forfeit yet?" Pinkie asked sweetly, doing a couple triple flips around her enemy. "I know I'm supposed to be mad at you for losing," Whiplash giggled, "but this is too funny!" "You shut up!" Descent shouted at her. "I'm leader," Whiplash retorted, still smirking. "So, I'd say the score is tied one to one," Glasses commented. "And I think Twilight here should pick next." "Why, thanks!" Twilight smiled. "I know the perfect sport- "Rainbow, she ain't gonna say ninjistu!" Applejack snapped. Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes. "Okay, fine," she grumbled. "As I was saying," Twilight continued, "we should have a contest in..." "I cannot believe you decided on motorcycle racing, Twilight!" Rarity exclaimed crossly. "I can't believe Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy are the only ones good at this!" Applejack retorted. Her arms were wrapped around Fluttershy's torso, and Rainbow Dash's arms were wrapped around hers. "I used to ride a motorcycle," Sonata commented from behind Aria. "Then I lost my licence." "That also might be the reason she's a few notes short of a chord," Aria added. The 11 girls were split across four motorcycles. Pinkie rode on her own, her large hair taking up most of the space on the cycle. Glasses and Twilight rode behind Rarity, the Dazzlings, led by Aria, were on another. Rainbow Dash and Applejack sat behind Fluttershy, who was gripping the handlebars tightly. "I learned from my ten older brothers," she explained to her friends, "but these kids are good." "You're telling me!" Pinkie replied. "Even Descent recovered enough from his humiliation to beat me!" "Another race?" a young Shadowcolt called, winking at the group. "Ya win this round!" Applejack shouted. "Can we please just get back to school?" "I was thinking the same thing," Aria agreed. "Why does Adagio have to sit in front of me?" Sonata wondered. "All that hair is getting in my face!" "That's exactly why," Adagio answered smugly as the group returned to school. Sonata muttered something inaudible. When they got back to school, Rainbow Dash hopped off and ran into the bathroom. "What?" Fluttershy asked. "Why'd she go?" "Motion sickness," Applejack answered simply. Twilight cocked her head in confusion. "Weird, considering she's a pegasus where I come from," she noted. "Uh, guys, we have bigger problems!" Pinkie commented. "I'm kinda feeling tired!" "That's your problem?" Glasses asked. "No, not really!" Pinkie shrugged. "We still have the Shadowcolts to deal with," Rarity reminded them as Windlash came up. 2 hours later, the Shadowcolts had beaten the Mane 11 at a jillion sports. Rainbow was especially humiliated because the entire school now doubted her sports skills. "I think it's safe to say we've won here," Whiplash commented after a rather satisfying volleyball match. "What do you think, Flash?" "You've definitely won!" he told her eagerly. "My heart, that is," he added so quietly only Rarity heard him. "Wait, one more contest!" Twilight pleaded. "Wait, why are we doing this again?" Aria asked. "Archery!" Silver Arrow cut in. Everyone looked at her. "Oh, why the heck not?" Rainbow Dash agreed. "Sounds good to me!" Fluttershy added, high-fiving Applejack. "Oh! We'll need special archery outfits!" Rarity clapped her hands together in excitement. "I can model them off my multi-colored Barbneigh dolls!" Author's Note As the relay of this plot, I have liberties to tell you of the dolls being released: Pinkie Pie and Descent Cheerleading Dolls Fluttershy's Dirtbike Set Windlash Doll Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 5"Alright, girls!" Silver Arrow directed. "Does everybody know how to shoot an arrow?" "I sure do!" Applejack replied. Fluttershy nodded as well. Sonata bobbed her head, too. Everybody was lined up in front of some targets. Each girl was wearing a new outfit Rarity had made several minutes earlier. Rainbow Dash still kept her red mask on. "So, how do we win?" Glasses asked, adjusting her glasses. "You don't," sneered Flash. "You lose, we win." "Please be quiet!" Pinkie told him, raising a finger in protest. "Daisies and daffodils, I feel tired!" She sat down on the ground, her light blue bow and quiver laid out beside her. "Why Pinkie, dear, are you alright?" Rarity asked, offering a hand to her friend. Pinkie smiled as she accepted the hand. "Yeah, I'm good," Pinkie answered as Rarity pulled her off. "Let's kick the Shadowcolts' butts!" "So anyways," Adagio interrupted, "how do we win this game?" "Hold on a minute!" a Shadowcolt yelled. She and four other shadowcolts stepped up. "Guys, my eyes are so tired," Pinkie Pie murmered, her eyelids fluttering softly closed. "Tell me what they look like?" "Sure," Sunset Shimmer replied. "Let me see..." "I'm Sunny Flare," announced the first Shadowcolt. "She has light blue skin," Sunset Shimmer described to Pinkie Pie. "Her hair is mainly blue, but it also has streaks of orange in it. Sunny's eyes are almost like fire. They're red." Sunset frowned. "No, orange. No, wait, they've changed to turquoise! What?" Sunny laughed. "Like you said, fire," she supplied. "Now, why don't I introduce our next friend?" "This better not take too long!" Windlash and Twilight shouted at the same time. The next girl stepped up. "I'm Sour Sweet!" she supplied. "I'm supposed to come up with all sorts of accessories to make me the friendliest competitor ever! And that might be true, but who knows? I've stuck with the Shadowcolts forever!" She giggled. "I also might be bipolar!" "We didn't ask for the life story," Aria muttered. "What does this girl look like?" Pinkie asked, perking up a bit. "She sounds fun!" "She looks fun," Sunset agreed, her gaze not wavering from her competitor. "Sour Sweet has lots of hair, like you! It's wavy and comes down to her waist. The left half is shades of blue and indigo, and some strands of teal. The right half is shades of pink ranging to pinkish purple. Her eyes are vivid blue, the same color as the sea. Her skin is pale green, and it's dotted with freckles." "When this is over, can we be friends?" Pinkie shouted at Sour Sweet. "I dunno! Maybe!" Sour Sweet shouted back, grinning. The rest of the kids were watching this, clearly bored. "Wait, why is Pinkie feeling so tired all of a sudden?" Rainbow wondered. The next introductions were fairly short for Sunset, since Pinkie was on the verge of falling asleep. "Indigo Zap looks a lot like Mystery Mint," Sunset explained. "Wait, she could be Mystery Mint. Does Mystery Mint have a sister?" "The human version of me is her sister!" Sonata volunteered, waving her hand in the air. Aria smacked it down. "Ow!" Sonata whimpered, clutching her hand. "So she looks like Mystery," Sunset continued. "But her eyes are dark blue and her hair is in a braid." "Sugar Coat has long dark purple hair, but she has a light pink headband in. Her skin is blue, and her eyes a bright orange." "And I'm chewing bubble gum!" Sugar Coat supplied, pointing at her mouth. "Wanna see?" "I'm-" Pinkie yawned. "I'm practically blind. "Can we hurry this up, Sunny?" she asked Sunset. "I'm really tired, and I want to know all these new characters' names and appearances!" "Hello?" Sunny Flare waved, annoyed. "Right." Pinkie yawned again. "The other Sunset." "Girls, I think something is wrong with Pinkie," Fluttershy murmured, but, as usual, everyone paid little attention to her. "Um, what's your name?" Sunset asked the fifth girl. "Lemon Zest!" the Shadowcolt proclaimed. "Wow, for Shadowcolts their colors are very bright," Sunset remarked. "Alright, quickly, Pinkie. Lemon Zest looks like Tennis Match. Her skin is yellow, her hair is bright turquoise, except it's apparently longer because she's fit it into a bun." "And... and her... eyes?" Pinkie prompted between yawns. "Uh, vivid yellow," Sunset answered. "She's almost as hot as you, Windlash," Flash remarked to the Shadowcolt leader. Windlash rolled her eyes and fought back a blush. "Night, all," Pinkie murmured. She curled up into a fetus position. Except, while Pinkie usually slept with a smile on her face, this time she was just frowning. "Okay, now can we get to the competition?" Adagio asked impatiently. "We've been waiting here forever and my hair is starting to get frizzy!" She sniffed. "And if I think about my gorgeous hair being ruined I start to cry and my makeup runs!" "I'm sorry," Sunny replied sweetly, "but my friends and I insist on singing you a little song before this competition!" "You're holding us up," Silver Arrow commented impatiently, tapping her foot in impatience. Applejack was impatient. Windlash and Flash were impatient. Everyone was impatient! "We have to peform a song first!" Sugar Coat explained. "Ready?" "That's our thing!" Sonata complained. The five Shadowcolts that had stood out grabbed their bows. "One, two three, four Our song won't ever be a bore! Five, six, seven, eight! Save your friend before it's too late! This will-" "Wait, what?" Rainbow Dash yelled. Everyone else's eyes widened. "Pinkie!" Fluttershy realized. "Why did you tell them?" Flash groaned, facepalming. "Hey! I'm the only one that can facepalm," Windlash growled at him. She shouted, "Hey, Sunny Ditz? Why'd you reveal our plan?" "What plan?" Glasses panicked. "What's happening?" "Pinkie won't wake up!" Applejack exclaimed, smacking her friend's face. "That's because we're sucking all the magic out of her!" Sour Sweet exclaimed helpfully. "WHAT?" the Mane 11 minus Pinkie screeched. "WHY'D YOU TELL THEM?" the Shadowcolts screamed. To be continued... Author's Note This won't be dark, I promise. Remember, this is a kid's movie. Pinkie's in no real danger. Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 6"Can somebody please explain what's happening?" Applejack asked, feeling Pinkie's forehead worriedly. "I know we've been in the same position twice but the explanation slips away from me every time." "Allow me to elaborate, since Sour Sweet here has already revealed the plan," Windlash began, pushing Sour Sweet out of the way. "Remind you of anybody?" Aria muttered, sending a pointed glance at Sonata. Sonata stuck her tongue. "We Shadowcolts are a street gang," Windlash explained. "When we got bored, we decided to steal some magic." "And it's working!" Lemon Zest added. "Your friend Pinkie Pie here, we're draining her magic as I speak, and Tennis Match, too!" "I forgot about her!" Rarity realized. "Well, they'll be fine, this magic is draining their life away," Twilight reasoned. "If anything, it's good their getting the excess magic out of Pinkie and Tennis Match!" "Tennis Match did say she didn't want to be anthro," Fluttershy added. Everyone smiled at Windlash. "Carry on," Glasses told her. Windlash smirked and strolled over to Pinkie Pie, who was still sleeping on the ground. "Oh, we're not draining the excess magic," she corrected, "we're- "We're draining all her magic!" Sugar Coat interuppted, chomping loudly on her gum. "That's right!" Flash added, a triumphant smirk on his face, which was mostly aimed at Twilight. "The 'magic of friendship' that exists inside of all of us, like you claim-" "It's gonna be all sucked up!" Sunny Flare added. "When Pinkie wakes up, she'll be cruel and heartless forever!" "Like Discord!" Twilight realized, though nobody else had any clue what she was talking about. "You give us Pinkie Pie back right now!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "Hold on," Windlash snapped. She looked at Adagio. "Adagio Dazzle, didn't you used to lead a team of evil as well?" "Sure did," Adagio confirmed, narrowing her eyes. "Did you get interrupted left and right?" Windlash asked. "Yes!" Adagio agreed, instantly perking up. "It was so annoying!" "I know!" Windlash agreed. "I mean, I'm the leader-" "-and the leader makes all the descions and says the exposition!" the two finished at once. "You're like the sister I never had!" Adagio exclaimed, hugging Windlash. "You're like the sister I had but much nicer!" Windlash responded, hugging Adagio back. "That was the creepiest thing I've ever heard," Applejack stated. After half an hour, or something, Adagio and Windlash stopped hugging. "Okay, now we get back to the battle," Windlash commented. "Pinkie Pie's magic won't be fully taken by the end of our archery round. If, by some miracle, you do manage to beat us, we'll restore Pinkie Pie's and Tennis Match's magic to normal levels." She smirked. "But that won't happen, will it?" "Don't be too sure," Twilight responded. The ten girls narrowed their eyes in determination. The Shadowcolts and Flash smirked. Pinkie snorted. "Can I be the scorekeeper?" volunteered the guy from earlier, Zero. "Hey, I was gonna be scorekeeper!" Bon Bon pouted. "Uh, sure," Silver Arrow replied. "We were gonna have Bon Bon, but I guess you can be scorekeeper." "Hooray!" Silver Arrow rolled her eyes. "Alright, each player gets three shots. When everybody's taken a turn, the team with the most points wins. Got it?" "Hang on, will you be participating?" Applejack questioned. "That depends," Silver Arrow told her. "At first, the teams were even, eleven to eleven. Pinkie's down, making it eleven to ten." "Am I shooting?" Flash asked Windlash hopefully. "Do you want pony ears and a doll?" "... No?" "Flash is shooting," Windlash confirmed. "That makes it ten to twel-" "WAIT!" Sour Sweet ran up to Silver Arrow and whispered something in her ear. After a moment, Silver Arrow nodded. "Alright, I won't be participating," she stated. "What?" Rainbow Dash cried. "You just said we'd be up against twelve!" "You'll do fine," Silver Arrow assured them. "Who's first?" "I am!" Indigo Zap yelled, stepping up. She did all the preparation stuff and then shot the arrow. "Bulls-eye!" she cheered when the arrow hit the center of the target. Descent and Nightingale high-fived her. Zero wrote down a three on the Shadowcolt's side of the scoreboard. Indigo made five more points, and she got a power up of pony ears and a tail. Sonata went like this: On her turn, she scored a point and a half. Adagio, Aria, and Applejack face-palmed. "Hey, I got ears and a tail!" she exclaimed after the experience happened to herself. "No wings, though. I wonder why?" Aria groaned. "My turn," Windlash commented. As she gained pony ears, a pony tail, and a set of feathery wings, her arrows hit the target every time. "Nine points!" Zero exclaimed, writing the number down on the scoreboard. "Isn't she amazing?" Flash asked Descent. Descent punched him in the arm. "There's a reason i'm the only dude in the Shadowcolts," he replied. Flash put a finger up to protest. Descent rolled his eyes. "Don't protest." Meanwhile, the Rainbooms were losing 29-31. Almost everybody on the team had been ponied up. The last girl to go would be Fluttershy. "You can do this, Fluttershy!" Rainbow Dash cheered. "Um, yeah." A bead of sweat slid down Fluttershy's brow. "Don't worry, Fluttershy!" Sunset encouraged. "Eep!" Fluttershy released her arrow too soon! It flew way off course. No where near the target. A complete bust. "Zero points!" called out Zero. "It's alright, Fluttershy!" Applejack enouraged. "Yeah, the only thing on the line is Pinkie Pie's very personality!" Sonata Dusk added. "Chill!" "Uh, pleasestopsayingstuffyourmakingmenervousthanks!" Fluttershy squeaked, trying to align her arrow properly. "What was that, darling?' Rarity asked. Fluttershy glanced away. "What was tha- Oh no!" She accidentally let go, and the arrow flew up in the sky. Once again, she had missed the target. "One more chance," Adagio pointed out. "Let's hope you don't miss," Aria added. Fluttershy missed. "That's zero points added!" Zero announced again. "Ouch!" Lemon Zest mimicked being burned as she remarked snidely, "That burns!" "It's my turn now!" Sour Sweet exclaimed, walking up to the line. To be continued... Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 7"Do us proud, Sour," Windlash told her, her new wings fluttering confidently. Pinkie snorted in her sleep again. Sour Sweet grinned as she lined up her gaze with the target. "Gumdrops!" she exclaimed brightly as she released it. The arrow flew straight to the target. Bulls-eye. The Mane 11 minus Pinkie groaned as Sour Sweet acquired pony ears, a pony tail, and a set of wings matching her skin color. "We're never gonna wake Pinkie now!" Applejack exclaimed, slumping down on the ground, her long pony tail curled round her feet. "We can't let her personality be drained away!" Sonata added nerviously. "Yes!" Sour Sweet announced triumphantly. The Mane 11 minus Pinkie looked back at the competition. They hadn't paid attention to the competition for the past two seconds. Sour had gotten three bullseye hits. Fluttershy bit her lip. "That's nine points for our team!" Windlash proclaimed triumphantly. "We win!" "No!" cried Rainbow Dash desperately. "You can't! Pinkie Pie!" "You give us our friend back right now!" Applejack exclaimed angrily, grabbing her bow. "There's more than one target I can shoot at, ya know!" "You wouldn't dare, not on school grounds!" Windlash taunted. "Actually, you lose," Zero interrupted. Windows glared at him. "Will you stay out of- wait, what?" "Sour Sweet was shooting for the Rainbooms," Silver Arrow explained. "What?" Lemon Zest gasped. "Not true!" Sugar Coat added crossly. Sour Sweet beamed sheepishly and shrugged. "Pinkie said she'd be my friend after this," she explained. "But I knew she wouldn't if her magic was taken away!" "Well, we still have another archer!" Windlash protested. "Flash Sentry!" "REALLY?" Flash squealed in a high pitched, fan-boying voice. Stars flashed in his eyes. "OMG! I won't fail you, Windlash! I promise!" Despite the intensity of the situation, Sonata, Rarity, Aria, Glasses, and Adagio gagged. "Can you believe this is what you'd have to put up with if you had actually married him?" Glasses remarked. Twilight stuck her tongue out. To put it simply, Flash lost. "We win!" Sunset yelled. "Give us back Pinkie Pie!" "Ha!" Windlash sneered. "You aren't getting her magic back!" She held up several red things. "Our pendants!" Adagio yelled, pointing in anger. "Flash must have given her the information!" Aria added. "Hey, you're smart!" Descent cried. "Now come and catch us!" Before the Mane 11 knew it, the Shadowcolts had jumped up on their motorcycles and sped away. "Sunset, Twilight, Glasses, Fluttershy, stay with Pinkie Pie!" Rainbow Dash directed. "We'll go after the Shadowcolts!" "Who made you leader?" Adagio protested. "Yeah, I'm the smart one!" Glasses added. "Just go!" Rainbow Dash shouted, pointing to the motorcycles. She and Sonata got on one. Aria and Rarity got on another. Adagio and Applejack got on the final one. The six ponified girls sped off after the Shadowcolts on their motorcycles. "Lead them down an alleyway!" Applejack yelled to Rarity. "Rainbow, ya head them off on the right! I'll cover the left flank!" Rainbow nodded and did the "ehm" noise people do in anime like Pokemon whenever they nod. Applejack slammed her boot on the pedal and made a sharp right. "Watch the hair!" Adagio screeched. "Sorry!" Applejack yelped, not feeling too deeply about Adagio's dead skin cells but she still felt like it was the polite thing to do. Soon, she spotted Indigo Zap on a motorcycle up ahead. "There ya are." Applejack smirked, narrowed her eyes in concentration, and speed once more. "Hey!" Indigo screamed when AJ and Adagio pulled up next to her. "Get back to Canterlot High and heal Pinkie Pie!" Applejack screamed. "Yeah!" Adagio screamed. "What she said!" After a bunch of action scenes, Applejack and Rainbow and Rarity managed to bring all the Shadowcolts to a dead end. "We won! Fair and square!" Applejack yelled. "Give us Pinkie Pie's magic back!" Rainbow yelled, flying over to Windlash. Windlash's yellow eyes betrayed no fear. "Never!" she cried. She attempted to fly, but this being her first transformation, she had no idea what to do. Rainbow Dash, however did. "Look, girl, we can do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way. GIVE HER BACK!" Rainbow's hair became a blazing fire. "Super Dashie!" Rarity and Sonata screamed. Now Windlash was terrified. "Alright, alright!" She agreed. "I'll come back with you and heal her!" Rainbow Dash smirked. "That's what I thought." She and her friends dragged the Shadowcolts back to campus. There, Windlash and the Shadowcolts performed an incantation over Pinkie's sleeping body. At first, Pinkie didn't stir. "Why- why isn't she waking?" Twilight asked nervously. "I don't know," Windlash snapped, "ask Miss Cheespuff over here." "Hey, I never did this stuff!" Adagio snapped. "That was a good insult, though," Aria added. "How come I never thought of it?" "Hi!" Pinkie suddenly jumped up. "Guys, I had the weirdest dream about bigfoot!" "Pinkie!" screamed all her friends. They rushed in for a hug, tears springing to the eyes of everyone. Silver Arrow smiled. "Another happy ending," she observed. "As for you, Windlash..." "Wait, what?" Windlash asked in disbelief. "You have no authority to give punishment! Heck, you obviously aren't even in their friend group!" Silver Arrow rolled her eyes. "That's where you're wrong." She smirked as pony ears winked into existence. A pair of extra sparkly wings took shape on her back. Her bow changed from teal to pink and red. Her outfit was transformed into a Greek style dress. "Whoa!" Sonata gasped, noticing the transformation. The rest of the Mane 11 turned to look. "Silver Arrow, Cupid." She pulled a bow into her quiver. "And if you don't want to be hopelessly in love with Flash Sentry for the rest of your life, you'd better start running." "WHAT THE HECK?" Windlash screamed. She ran. Author's Note Just an epilogue to go! Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 8 (Epilogue)"That was freaky," Applejack remarked later that afternoon. "I never woulda expected you ta be Cupid, Silver Arrow." "Yeah, I hate my duties," Silver Arrow answered, examining her fingernails. "I use them on occasion." "Will you join our friend group?" Twilight asked. "She should," Aria added. "Sorry guys, you're too wacky for me. I'm leaving." "Our adventures drive you off the deep end!" Pinkie added, doing another somersault. "Eh, why not?" Silver Arrow shrugged. "So what happened to Whiplash and Flash?" Rarity asked. "Them? I hit Flash, he's probably stalking her in San Neighiego," Silver Arrow explained. "Stupid equine puns," Aria muttered as she walked back into school. "I have to go now, guys," Twilight told them. "Bye!" Everyone called as she walked back through the portal. "Oh, well I hope nobody will sabotage this summer's fashion show at Rarity's resort!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed loudly. "'Cause Glasses, if you make us an epic bus, just for our group, I seriously might consider calling you awesome." Glasses rolled her eyes. "I don't even know what you're referencing." She rubbed her glasses. "Group hug to end this adventure!" Sonata and Pinkie exclaimed. Adagio, Applejack, Fluttershy, Glasses, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Silver Arrow, Sonata, and Sunset Shimmer hugged. "Twilight's gonna try to skype us," Sunset mentioned. ROLL CREDITS
Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 1It was a bright sunny day at Canterlot High. Everyone was happy because for two months there had been no evil monster. "Hi ya!" Rainbow Dash practiced her karate on the middle of school grounds. Sunset Shimmer was texting Twilight Sparkle because they had upgraded the book to a pair of cellphones using magic. "Are you sure you don't want to give it a try?" Rainbow asked Sunset, tugging at the red mask around her face. "Karate is fun!" "You're not even referencing the right type of martial arts," Sunset responded, her eyes glued to the screen. "They practice ninjitsu." "... Shut up!" "Fine." Sunset smiled as she put her phone down. "I'll give it a try!" "Sunset Shimmer!" Sunset and Rainbow froze as they heard a familiar voice. When they turned around, they saw three familiar people walking their way. "... Shut up," Rainbow gawked. Meanwhile, on the other side of the school, Pinkie Pie and Rarity were playing against Tennis Match and Lyra Heartstrings at a game of tennis. While neither Rarity or Lyra were particularly skilled, both Pinkie and Tennis posses excellent skills and had tied the game up. "PONY POWER UP!" Pinkie Pie screamed, slamming her racket at the ball. She got her pony tail and pony ears and scored a lot of points. "No fair!" Tennis Match whined while Rarity and Lyra looked at Pinkie in shock. "Pinkie, how did you do that, darling?" Rarity asked curiously. "No way!" Tennis Match interrupted. "I need to do that, too! PONY POWER UP!" She mimicked Pinkie Pie and ears and a tail sprouted our of her short green hair too. "I'm so jealous!" Lyra complained. Finally, on the other side of campus, Applejack and Fluttershy were practicing archery. "This is so fun!" Fluttershy exclaimed, drawing her bow. Applejack winked at her. "I told ya it would be fun to pick up a sport!" Suddenly just as she released her apple-themed arrow, Principal Celestia walked outside. "Applejack! Fluttershy!" she exclaimed. "I've decided to host another school event, the Friendship Game! I know you two are really popular and magical so try to keep the evil spirits away from this one, alright?" She winked. Applejack and Fluttershy gasped. "Of course, Principal Celestia!" Applejack assured her. "We'll go tell Sunset Shimmer right away!" "You don't think she meant a parody of the Hunger Games, do you?" Fluttershy asked as they ran away. Applejack didn't answer her. When they got to Sunset Shimmer, they were surprised Pinkie and Rarity were also there, dragging along Lyra Heartstrings and Tennis Match. Tennis Match and Pinkie had pony ears, which was weird. "Why are they here?" Tennis Match yelled. "Who?" Applejack asked. "Applejack! Fluttershy!" Rainbow Dash cried. "The Dazzlings are back!" "What?!" Fluttershy and Applejack exclaimed at the same time. They moved to see Adagio Dazzle, Sonata Dusk, and Aria Blaze standing next to Sunset Shimmer. Aria looked grumpy, Sonata looked pouty, and Adagio looked uncomfortable. "They say they're sorry," Sunset explained. "Actually, we just need money!" Sonata cut in. Aria grabbed her. "Shut up, Sonata," she growled. The six friends looked at each other, then at the Dazzlings, then at the girls who weren't in their group. "See ya later!" Pinkie Pie waved at Tennis Match and Lyra, who were obviously displeased. They grumbled as they left the conversation. "Should we give them a second chance?" Rarity questioned. "Who votes yes?" Sunset asked, raising her hand. Pinkie Pie and Rarity raised their hands. Applejack, and Rainbow Dash glared at them. Fluttershy looked down at her archery-outfit sandals. Sunset Shimmer sighed "We're helping them, alright?" "Yay!" Sonata clapped her hands. "You won't regret this," Adagio told Sunset with a little smirk. ~ Meanwhile, ten girls and a dude stood alone in an alleyway. "Okay guys," said a girl with dark blue hair and vivid yellow eyes. "Even though we're not magical beings, I think we should get magic anyways." "Good idea," agreed the one dude. "Very good idea," added another girl approvingly. "But how will we do it?" queried another girl with luminous green eyes. "We'll become a soccer team!" suggested a small girl with curly indigo hair. "Perfect idea," agreed the first girl. "And I'll be team captain." ~ Meanwhile, human Twilight came and became the tenth member of the group. This is mostly how the exchange went. "You look just like our friend from an alternate dimension!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed when she showed up. "You look like my girlfriend from another dimension!" Flash Sentry added. "Twilight isn't your girlfriend!" Rarity accused him. "She friend zoned you, remember?" Then Flash went off into a corner and cried to himself because nobody liked him. "Be our friend?" Sunset Shimmer asked, holding a hand out to Twilight. She shrugged. "I've spent my entire life studying magic because a tattoo on mg arm told me to. I've seen weirder." She grabbed Sunset Shimmer's hand. "That's so sweet!" Sonata exclaimed. "I have to admit I agree with you," Aria added. "What's sweet?" Adagio asked, confused. "We're a group of eleven people now!" Applejack exclaimed. "This calls for a party!" "We forgot about pony Twilight!" Rainbow Dash yelled, waving a salad tong in the air. "In the name of ninjitsu, we must bring her to our Sportsapalooza party!" "Here here!" Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Sonata Dusk, Aria Blaze, Human Twilight, Pinkie Pie, Adagio Dazzle, and Sunset Shimmer yelled. Author's Note This is 100% legit.
Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 2The ten girls stood outside the portal. Sunset had texted Twilight and they were now waiting for the purple being to come through the mirror. "I think she's coming!" shouted Rainbow Dash as the mirror began to ripple. That was because Twilight was coming through, everyone knew that except for Human Twilight, who had taken her labcoat off and let her bun down so she looked more presentable. Rarity had also brushed her hair because she was like that. When Twilight came through, everybody cheered. "You're here, Twilight!" Rarity exclaimed. "I trust Sunset has told you the going-ons of today?" "She sure did!" Twilight responded, standing up. "I can't wait to meet the human version of myself!" "Hey there!" Human Twilight exclaimed, walking up to her double. "I'm Twilight. You must be Twilight!" "Pleasure to meet you, Twilight," Twilight responded, curtsying in her mini-skirt. "The pleasure is all mine, Twilight," human Twilight answered. The two girls giggled. "Ugh, can we please just give the human a nickname?" Aria groaned. Everyone turned to look at her strangely. "I'm just trying to make a contribution!" Aria protested, folding her arms crossly. The rest of the girls looked at each other. "Oh, alright," Applejack agreed. "Shall we call her 'Lavender?'" Rarity proposed. "Silly, Trixie's friend is named Lavender!" Pinkie Pie giggled. "I think she's a 'Pound Party Cake' kinda gal!" She hung an arm around human Twilight's neck. Human Twilight stared at her, annoyed. "Seriously? I can pick my own nickname!" she commented. Nobody paid attention. Soon they were shouting out random nicknames for their friend. "Purpleus butterflyus!" "Science Dudette!" "Apple Turnover the Fourth!" "The Lady Who Friend-zoned Senpai! Oh wait, wrong Twilight..." "Purple Taco!" "Twin Freak." "The Girl with Terrible Hair." CHIMI CHERRY CHONGA!" "Humanlight Sparkle?" "EVERYBODY BE QUIET!" Human Twilight shouted. Everybody stopped yelling and turned to look at her. "My name," Human Twilight began slowly, "shall be Glasses." "That's not a very- LOOK! A NEW STUDENT!" Rainbow Dash yelled, pointing at a new girl walking past. She had pink, silver, and blue hair tied up in two buns. Her skin was tan, and she had purple eyes. "Anytime a new student enrolls, they're always trouble," Sunset judged. "Let's find out who she is!" "But what about our Sportsapalooza party?" Pinkie Pie pouted. "It'll have to wait," Twilight and Glasses told her in unison. "In the name of nijitsu!" Rainbow Dash cried. "What, is that your battle cry now?" Applejack asked, showing how unimpressed she was by faking a yawn. "Guys, hurry up!" Adagio yelled. Applejack and Rainbow Dash ran after the group. Sunset and Glasses reached the new girl first. "Hey, what's your name?" Glasses demanded. "What are you doing here?" Sunset asked. The girl looked surprised. She even took a step back in surprise. "My name's Silver Arrow!" she told them. "I'm new here!" "What do you know about good fruit punch?" Sonata asked suspiciously. Aria whacked her on the head. "What she means to say is, 'How do we know Silver Arrow is your real name?'" Rainbow Dash explained, narrowing her eyes. Silver Arrow, or whatever her real name was, rolled her eyes. "I have documents to prove it. Also, the buck on my belt is a silver S." She passed some papers to Twilight. Twilight leafed through them. "Well, your paperwork seems to be in order," she commented, handing everything back. "Wait, why are you-" Applejack began. "-carrying around my papers? I'm new. Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna need them," Silver Arrow responded coolly. "See ya guys around, okay? Butterfly chick, Apple chick, you have archery gear on? Sweet!" Her hair bobbed as she clapped her hands. "Archery is my thing! See ya 'round." The new girl waved and jogged off. "Are we really identified by our symbols?" Fluttershy asked timidly. "Girls, I just realized that Pinkie Pie still has her pony ears and tail," Rarity commented. Everyone looked over at Pinkie. A few minutes later, Twilight and Glasses decided Pinkie was permanently stuck with rainbow streaks in her hair and pony ears and a tail. "How are we going to explain this to her parents?" Sunset wondered, kicking a rock. "Weeeeeeee!" Pinkie Pie did somersaults around the group. "Dang, this is one weird day," Adagio Dazzle commented. "Is this how it always goes?" "More or less," Fluttershy answered. "So I don't think she's gonna be a villain," Pinkie Pie babbled, "although I feel like she's a goddess or something, ya know? Because Fluttershy and Applejack have all those Greek outfits and stuff on!" "Pinkie, stop yer rambling," Applejack commented. "We're gonna go do somethin' normal now. Like what?" "Go to class?" Aria suggested. "You guys don't do that a lot." Everyone stared at her. She folded her arms. "Just a suggestion," Aria huffed. "Hey, Twilight!" Everyone cringed as Flash Sentry came running up. "I see you're back in town! To see me, huh? Rarity said you friend-zoned me, but-" Twilight held up a hand to silence him. "I'm sorry, Flash, but I did friend zone you. I just don't see any potential in our relationship." "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!" everybody cried when Twilight rejected Flash. Flash's eyes went wide. He considered himself a popular guy. He couldn't believe Twilight would dump him! "I- I!" Flash struggled for words. Everyone watched him silently. Only Pinkie Pie felt slightly sorry for him. "I'll get my revenge!" Flash shouted. "I'd smack you if couldn't be arrested for that." "Please leave," Glasses commented, folding her arms. Everyone else folded their arms too. Flash stormed off. "That was fun," Rainbow Dash commented. "I like rejecting dudes!" "Let's go get some pizza!" Sonata suggested. "Pizza?" Rainbow Dash asked eagerly. A look of horror crossed everyone's face. "Why did you accidentally reference that franchise?" Applejack asked, shaking Sonata. "In the name of ninjitsu!" Rainbow proclaimed, pumping a fist up in the air. She chased everyone inside. Meanwhile, Flash was stalking off, hands stuffed into his pockets, his eyes conveniently closed. At least until- "Oof!" Flash opened his eyes when he bumped into someone. She was a girl, older than him, with dark blue hair that was bunched up in a ponytail. Her luminous yellow eyes bored into his soul. She wore a tight blue sports outfit. Behind her was legion of similar girls, and also one dude. "Hey kid," she said, leaning in. "Ya know where we can find some magic?" Author's Note Spoiler: Flash Sentry gets character development as a villain! And he has a role in this movie as well!
Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 3Flash Sentry blinked. "Uh..." He stalled, unable to come up with an answer at the moment. Gazes of green, yellow, blue, and orange seemed to intensify. Flash felt beads of sweat roll down his forehead. "Well?' prompted the obvious leader. "Listen, I, uh-" Flash was really uncomfortable with those eyes staring straight at him. Suddenly, he rembered. Twilight. "Yeah, I do, actually," Flash replied, trying to look fierce. "Then can you please tell us where it's located?" snapped a girl in the back of the group. "We don't have all day!" "Silence, Nightingale!" retorted the leader, holding a hand up to quiet her companion. She turned her attention back to Flash. "Like she said, we're on the lookout for some magic. Care to tell us about it, pretty boy?" Flash's cheeks turned scarlet. "Jeez, I'm not that pretty," he muttered, though he thought the opposite. Clearing his throat, Flash stood up straight. "I could probably tell you," he answered. "My name's Flash. What's yours?" The girl's expression morphed into one of irritation. "Windlash," she replied shortly. "And no, I am not giving away my phone number. Come on, Flash. Where's the magic?" When Windlash stepped forward menacingly, Flash decided to retreat. "Okay, okay," he agreed. "Let me tell you everything. It started with these jerk girls named Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle. I had the misfortune of going out with both of them..." *~* "I love pizza!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, chomping down into a piece. Everyone else was eating pizza, except Rainbow Dash. Rainbow was rambling about ninjitsu again. "Gals, I just remembered Principal Celestia mentioned a sports thing," Applejack commented. "Ya think we should head down ta' the gymnasium to see what that was about?" "How do you know she's in the gymnasium?" Aria asked crossly. "Shouldn't she be in her office, filing paperwork or something?" "Oh, quit whining!" Adagio reminded her. "Why don't we go?" "Maybe that new girl Silver Arrow will be there!" Pinkie added excitedly. "New friend!" All the girls jumped up and ran down the hall to the gym. Even Rainbow, who had stopped hallucinating after the pizza. Even Aria, who still was skeptical about her new lifestyle. Sure enough, Principal Celestia was in the gym, along with Vice Principal Luna. Random students where there, too. "Hey, Twilight Sparkle! Other Twilight Sparkle! Popular magic girls!" Tennis Match came running up to them, pointing at her pony ears that were still on her. "These things are still on!" she complained, tugging at them. "I mean, they're cool and all, but not permanently!" "Sorry," Glasses told her with a shrug. "We've concluded that the effects are permanent." Tennis Match's eyelid twitched. "WHAT?" she cried, stomping her foot. "Why couldn't this happen to Lyra?" "Oh, quit whining!" Adagio muttered. "Principal Celestia's about to speak!" Sure enough, Principal Celestia began to speak. "Greetings, students! Vice Principal Luna and I have been monitoring trends about little girls' intrests in the past few months. So, in hopes we can gain more enrollment since half the freshman class dropped out after the Fall Formal and Battle of the Bands, we've decided to hitch onto those trends!" Most of the students cheered. "What about us dudes?" Brawly Beats yelled. Nobody paid attention to him. "After seeing how girls like the Nerf Rebel toy line and Hunger Games series, we decided to create the Friendship Games!" Vice Principal Luna added. More students cheered. "Wasn't there a Friendship Games because there was a war and it was a replacement for the Neighlympic Games?" Scribble Dee protested. Nobody paid attention to her. "There will be lots of sports featured, but archery will take center stage because of aforementioned reasons. Others sports will be hockey and soccer," Principal Celestia said calmly. "Archery's our thing, Fluttershy!" Applejack exclaimed, giving her friend a friendly punch in the arm. "What? No martial arts?" Rainbow Dash whined, ripping off her red mask. "This is a G-rated high school," Twilight reminded her. Rainbow Dash's eye twitched. "Since when?" she grumbled. "Hey!" Nobody had noticed that Tennis Match had ran up onto the stage. "What about tennis?" "What about football?" screamed Teddy. "What about baseball?" protested heath burns. "I don't have a problem with soccer!" Cloudy Kicks shouted out. Soon, half the school as shouting out the names of sports. "I feel like everything I do ends up in a shouting match," Sunset moaned, holding her head in her hands. "I feel like everything I do makes me end up with lunatics," Aria grumbled, rolling her eyes. "EVERYBODY STOP!" Everyone froze and looked up at the new voice. The Mane 11, as they now called themselves, looked up at Silver Arrow, who stood on stage with her hands on her hips. "This is completely irrelevant, but I just realized I forgot Spike," Twilight commented in the silence. "SHHHH!" Everyone shushed her. "Hey, I'm Silver Arrow, and I think you guys need to chill out," Silver Arrow said. "Come on, you need to focus on archery! The best sport, am I right? Let's make fletch happen!" "What does that mean?" Rarity whispered to Applejack and Fluttershy. Both shrugged. "She's probably one of those people who likes to make references wherever she goes," Fluttershy reasoned. "You know, like Rainbow Dash?" Applejack added humorously. Rarity nodded, understanding now. Silver Arrow stepped off the stage, her purple eyes sparkling like the silver streaks in her hair. Suddenly, everyone heard the doors of the gym thrust open. The Mane 11 turned around to see a large group of girls - and one guy - walk into the gym. "Who are they?" muttered an athlete named Lightning Dust. "Wait- is that Flash Sentry with them?" Glasses realized, noticing the blue-haired rocker next to the other guy. Sonata, Adagio, and Rarity giggled. "They kinda looked threatening before," Sonata admitted, "but now they just look silly." Whispers and murmurs rustled through the crowd as the kids passed. They all seemed to be of the same color scheme, a dark blue, which made Flash stick out like a sore thumb. As he passed them, he sent Twilight a death glare. "Oh no," Twilight muttered. Th group gathered up on stage. Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna, to nobody's surprise, didn't question that. One girl took the microphone in her hand. "My name's Windlash," she began, sweeping her hand behind her, "and these are the Shadowcolts. We're here to challenged you Canterlot High Students to battle of the bands!" "That was two months ago!" Sweetie Belle shouted out. Windlash glared at her. "A Sportsapalooza, then," she corrected herself. "The official name of these events is the 'Friendship Games,'" Trixie pointed out. Windlash's yellow eyes flashed with anger. "Fine!" she yelled. "Whatever! Friendship Games, whatever! We're having a soccer match!" "No soccer," Silver Arrow corrected. "We just decided on archery." Windlash threw her hands up in the air. "Descent, take over for me," she mumbled, thrusting the microphone at the dude. He gladly took it. "Seriously, kids," he told them. "Any sports game you challenge us to, we'll win." "Bring it!" Rainbow Dash shouted. Author's Note I give you Silver Arrow art! Where the reference came from
Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 4"So, which sport shall we compete in first?" Windlash asked smugly. She and the Shadowcolts now stood opposite of the Mane 11 outside. All unimportant students stood on the sidelines, watching. "Hello?" Silver Arrow waved her navy bow in the air. "Archery, of course!" "Be quiet," Flash snapped at her. "I think I have a way out of this," Twilight whispered to Rarity. She stepped closer to Flash. "Uh, Flash, sweetie? These girls - and guy - seem like bad news. Can you please tell them to stop whatever they're doing? For me?" She batted her eyes, hoping he'd agree. Flash folded his arms. "It isn't gonna be like that, Twilight. I don't even know what I saw in you in the first place!" he snapped. "Flash, stop speaking to the enemy," Windlash directed. Flash immediately turned to her. "Right away!" he replied. Glasses smirked. "Girls," she murmured so only the friend group could hear, "I think Flash is smitten with Windlash!" Rarity and Adagio rolled their eyes. Everyone else giggled at the hilarity of that. "Enough talk!" Rainbow Dash announced, smashing her fists in an excited manner, "let's just go already!" "Your pick," taunted a member of the Shadowcolts with a long black braid. "Pinkie! Sport!" Rainbow commanded. "Cricket!" Pinkie replied confidently, pulling a cricket ball out of her rainbowfied hair. "Cricket?" yelled a nearby student named Zero in disbelief. "Nobody understands cricket! You gotta understand crumpets to understand cricket!" Pinkie Pie grinned and waved the ball in his face. "Oh, believe me!" she replied, "I know everything about crumpets!" *~* "How did they beat us at cricket?" Rainbow Dash panted when the game was over. She wiped the sweat off on her red mask. "Man, why couldn't they be good guys?" "Aw, don't give up!" Adagio encouraged them sarcastically. "We still have all day to show them up!" "Archery!" Silver Arrow interrupted. Fluttershy and Applejack gripped their bows in hands. "Not now," they told her. Silver Arrow rolled her eyes and stomped off. "You guys are mean girls!" she called over her shoulder. The Mane 11 looked back at the Shadowcolts. They all were in a triumphant pose. Windlash wore a gloating smirk. "She reminds me of me two months ago," Adagio muttered, folding her arms, obviously reluctant to admit the fact. "So, what else do you wanna play?" Descent asked. "Cheer leading?" "Hey, you don't insult cheer leading!" Pinkie screamed, jumping in the air. "I challenge Descent to a one-on-one cheerleading competition!" Everyone gasped. Descent's eyes dilated. "W-what?" "Hey, these are team sports!" Windlash interrupted. "Not individual challenged!" "What? Are you scared?" Pinkie taunted, twirling a lock of hair around her finger. "N-no!" Descent retorted, stomping his foot in protest. "Let's have this contest!" Three minutes later, Descent was dressed in a miniskirt, his hair tied up in two ponytails. Pinkie stood across from him, dressed in a similar outfit, a pair of pom poms in her hands. "Soooo? Do you forfeit yet?" Pinkie asked sweetly, doing a couple triple flips around her enemy. "I know I'm supposed to be mad at you for losing," Whiplash giggled, "but this is too funny!" "You shut up!" Descent shouted at her. "I'm leader," Whiplash retorted, still smirking. "So, I'd say the score is tied one to one," Glasses commented. "And I think Twilight here should pick next." "Why, thanks!" Twilight smiled. "I know the perfect sport- "Rainbow, she ain't gonna say ninjistu!" Applejack snapped. Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes. "Okay, fine," she grumbled. "As I was saying," Twilight continued, "we should have a contest in..." "I cannot believe you decided on motorcycle racing, Twilight!" Rarity exclaimed crossly. "I can't believe Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy are the only ones good at this!" Applejack retorted. Her arms were wrapped around Fluttershy's torso, and Rainbow Dash's arms were wrapped around hers. "I used to ride a motorcycle," Sonata commented from behind Aria. "Then I lost my licence." "That also might be the reason she's a few notes short of a chord," Aria added. The 11 girls were split across four motorcycles. Pinkie rode on her own, her large hair taking up most of the space on the cycle. Glasses and Twilight rode behind Rarity, the Dazzlings, led by Aria, were on another. Rainbow Dash and Applejack sat behind Fluttershy, who was gripping the handlebars tightly. "I learned from my ten older brothers," she explained to her friends, "but these kids are good." "You're telling me!" Pinkie replied. "Even Descent recovered enough from his humiliation to beat me!" "Another race?" a young Shadowcolt called, winking at the group. "Ya win this round!" Applejack shouted. "Can we please just get back to school?" "I was thinking the same thing," Aria agreed. "Why does Adagio have to sit in front of me?" Sonata wondered. "All that hair is getting in my face!" "That's exactly why," Adagio answered smugly as the group returned to school. Sonata muttered something inaudible. When they got back to school, Rainbow Dash hopped off and ran into the bathroom. "What?" Fluttershy asked. "Why'd she go?" "Motion sickness," Applejack answered simply. Twilight cocked her head in confusion. "Weird, considering she's a pegasus where I come from," she noted. "Uh, guys, we have bigger problems!" Pinkie commented. "I'm kinda feeling tired!" "That's your problem?" Glasses asked. "No, not really!" Pinkie shrugged. "We still have the Shadowcolts to deal with," Rarity reminded them as Windlash came up. 2 hours later, the Shadowcolts had beaten the Mane 11 at a jillion sports. Rainbow was especially humiliated because the entire school now doubted her sports skills. "I think it's safe to say we've won here," Whiplash commented after a rather satisfying volleyball match. "What do you think, Flash?" "You've definitely won!" he told her eagerly. "My heart, that is," he added so quietly only Rarity heard him. "Wait, one more contest!" Twilight pleaded. "Wait, why are we doing this again?" Aria asked. "Archery!" Silver Arrow cut in. Everyone looked at her. "Oh, why the heck not?" Rainbow Dash agreed. "Sounds good to me!" Fluttershy added, high-fiving Applejack. "Oh! We'll need special archery outfits!" Rarity clapped her hands together in excitement. "I can model them off my multi-colored Barbneigh dolls!" Author's Note As the relay of this plot, I have liberties to tell you of the dolls being released: Pinkie Pie and Descent Cheerleading Dolls Fluttershy's Dirtbike Set Windlash Doll
Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 5"Alright, girls!" Silver Arrow directed. "Does everybody know how to shoot an arrow?" "I sure do!" Applejack replied. Fluttershy nodded as well. Sonata bobbed her head, too. Everybody was lined up in front of some targets. Each girl was wearing a new outfit Rarity had made several minutes earlier. Rainbow Dash still kept her red mask on. "So, how do we win?" Glasses asked, adjusting her glasses. "You don't," sneered Flash. "You lose, we win." "Please be quiet!" Pinkie told him, raising a finger in protest. "Daisies and daffodils, I feel tired!" She sat down on the ground, her light blue bow and quiver laid out beside her. "Why Pinkie, dear, are you alright?" Rarity asked, offering a hand to her friend. Pinkie smiled as she accepted the hand. "Yeah, I'm good," Pinkie answered as Rarity pulled her off. "Let's kick the Shadowcolts' butts!" "So anyways," Adagio interrupted, "how do we win this game?" "Hold on a minute!" a Shadowcolt yelled. She and four other shadowcolts stepped up. "Guys, my eyes are so tired," Pinkie Pie murmered, her eyelids fluttering softly closed. "Tell me what they look like?" "Sure," Sunset Shimmer replied. "Let me see..." "I'm Sunny Flare," announced the first Shadowcolt. "She has light blue skin," Sunset Shimmer described to Pinkie Pie. "Her hair is mainly blue, but it also has streaks of orange in it. Sunny's eyes are almost like fire. They're red." Sunset frowned. "No, orange. No, wait, they've changed to turquoise! What?" Sunny laughed. "Like you said, fire," she supplied. "Now, why don't I introduce our next friend?" "This better not take too long!" Windlash and Twilight shouted at the same time. The next girl stepped up. "I'm Sour Sweet!" she supplied. "I'm supposed to come up with all sorts of accessories to make me the friendliest competitor ever! And that might be true, but who knows? I've stuck with the Shadowcolts forever!" She giggled. "I also might be bipolar!" "We didn't ask for the life story," Aria muttered. "What does this girl look like?" Pinkie asked, perking up a bit. "She sounds fun!" "She looks fun," Sunset agreed, her gaze not wavering from her competitor. "Sour Sweet has lots of hair, like you! It's wavy and comes down to her waist. The left half is shades of blue and indigo, and some strands of teal. The right half is shades of pink ranging to pinkish purple. Her eyes are vivid blue, the same color as the sea. Her skin is pale green, and it's dotted with freckles." "When this is over, can we be friends?" Pinkie shouted at Sour Sweet. "I dunno! Maybe!" Sour Sweet shouted back, grinning. The rest of the kids were watching this, clearly bored. "Wait, why is Pinkie feeling so tired all of a sudden?" Rainbow wondered. The next introductions were fairly short for Sunset, since Pinkie was on the verge of falling asleep. "Indigo Zap looks a lot like Mystery Mint," Sunset explained. "Wait, she could be Mystery Mint. Does Mystery Mint have a sister?" "The human version of me is her sister!" Sonata volunteered, waving her hand in the air. Aria smacked it down. "Ow!" Sonata whimpered, clutching her hand. "So she looks like Mystery," Sunset continued. "But her eyes are dark blue and her hair is in a braid." "Sugar Coat has long dark purple hair, but she has a light pink headband in. Her skin is blue, and her eyes a bright orange." "And I'm chewing bubble gum!" Sugar Coat supplied, pointing at her mouth. "Wanna see?" "I'm-" Pinkie yawned. "I'm practically blind. "Can we hurry this up, Sunny?" she asked Sunset. "I'm really tired, and I want to know all these new characters' names and appearances!" "Hello?" Sunny Flare waved, annoyed. "Right." Pinkie yawned again. "The other Sunset." "Girls, I think something is wrong with Pinkie," Fluttershy murmured, but, as usual, everyone paid little attention to her. "Um, what's your name?" Sunset asked the fifth girl. "Lemon Zest!" the Shadowcolt proclaimed. "Wow, for Shadowcolts their colors are very bright," Sunset remarked. "Alright, quickly, Pinkie. Lemon Zest looks like Tennis Match. Her skin is yellow, her hair is bright turquoise, except it's apparently longer because she's fit it into a bun." "And... and her... eyes?" Pinkie prompted between yawns. "Uh, vivid yellow," Sunset answered. "She's almost as hot as you, Windlash," Flash remarked to the Shadowcolt leader. Windlash rolled her eyes and fought back a blush. "Night, all," Pinkie murmured. She curled up into a fetus position. Except, while Pinkie usually slept with a smile on her face, this time she was just frowning. "Okay, now can we get to the competition?" Adagio asked impatiently. "We've been waiting here forever and my hair is starting to get frizzy!" She sniffed. "And if I think about my gorgeous hair being ruined I start to cry and my makeup runs!" "I'm sorry," Sunny replied sweetly, "but my friends and I insist on singing you a little song before this competition!" "You're holding us up," Silver Arrow commented impatiently, tapping her foot in impatience. Applejack was impatient. Windlash and Flash were impatient. Everyone was impatient! "We have to peform a song first!" Sugar Coat explained. "Ready?" "That's our thing!" Sonata complained. The five Shadowcolts that had stood out grabbed their bows. "One, two three, four Our song won't ever be a bore! Five, six, seven, eight! Save your friend before it's too late! This will-" "Wait, what?" Rainbow Dash yelled. Everyone else's eyes widened. "Pinkie!" Fluttershy realized. "Why did you tell them?" Flash groaned, facepalming. "Hey! I'm the only one that can facepalm," Windlash growled at him. She shouted, "Hey, Sunny Ditz? Why'd you reveal our plan?" "What plan?" Glasses panicked. "What's happening?" "Pinkie won't wake up!" Applejack exclaimed, smacking her friend's face. "That's because we're sucking all the magic out of her!" Sour Sweet exclaimed helpfully. "WHAT?" the Mane 11 minus Pinkie screeched. "WHY'D YOU TELL THEM?" the Shadowcolts screamed. To be continued... Author's Note This won't be dark, I promise. Remember, this is a kid's movie. Pinkie's in no real danger.
Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 6"Can somebody please explain what's happening?" Applejack asked, feeling Pinkie's forehead worriedly. "I know we've been in the same position twice but the explanation slips away from me every time." "Allow me to elaborate, since Sour Sweet here has already revealed the plan," Windlash began, pushing Sour Sweet out of the way. "Remind you of anybody?" Aria muttered, sending a pointed glance at Sonata. Sonata stuck her tongue. "We Shadowcolts are a street gang," Windlash explained. "When we got bored, we decided to steal some magic." "And it's working!" Lemon Zest added. "Your friend Pinkie Pie here, we're draining her magic as I speak, and Tennis Match, too!" "I forgot about her!" Rarity realized. "Well, they'll be fine, this magic is draining their life away," Twilight reasoned. "If anything, it's good their getting the excess magic out of Pinkie and Tennis Match!" "Tennis Match did say she didn't want to be anthro," Fluttershy added. Everyone smiled at Windlash. "Carry on," Glasses told her. Windlash smirked and strolled over to Pinkie Pie, who was still sleeping on the ground. "Oh, we're not draining the excess magic," she corrected, "we're- "We're draining all her magic!" Sugar Coat interuppted, chomping loudly on her gum. "That's right!" Flash added, a triumphant smirk on his face, which was mostly aimed at Twilight. "The 'magic of friendship' that exists inside of all of us, like you claim-" "It's gonna be all sucked up!" Sunny Flare added. "When Pinkie wakes up, she'll be cruel and heartless forever!" "Like Discord!" Twilight realized, though nobody else had any clue what she was talking about. "You give us Pinkie Pie back right now!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "Hold on," Windlash snapped. She looked at Adagio. "Adagio Dazzle, didn't you used to lead a team of evil as well?" "Sure did," Adagio confirmed, narrowing her eyes. "Did you get interrupted left and right?" Windlash asked. "Yes!" Adagio agreed, instantly perking up. "It was so annoying!" "I know!" Windlash agreed. "I mean, I'm the leader-" "-and the leader makes all the descions and says the exposition!" the two finished at once. "You're like the sister I never had!" Adagio exclaimed, hugging Windlash. "You're like the sister I had but much nicer!" Windlash responded, hugging Adagio back. "That was the creepiest thing I've ever heard," Applejack stated. After half an hour, or something, Adagio and Windlash stopped hugging. "Okay, now we get back to the battle," Windlash commented. "Pinkie Pie's magic won't be fully taken by the end of our archery round. If, by some miracle, you do manage to beat us, we'll restore Pinkie Pie's and Tennis Match's magic to normal levels." She smirked. "But that won't happen, will it?" "Don't be too sure," Twilight responded. The ten girls narrowed their eyes in determination. The Shadowcolts and Flash smirked. Pinkie snorted. "Can I be the scorekeeper?" volunteered the guy from earlier, Zero. "Hey, I was gonna be scorekeeper!" Bon Bon pouted. "Uh, sure," Silver Arrow replied. "We were gonna have Bon Bon, but I guess you can be scorekeeper." "Hooray!" Silver Arrow rolled her eyes. "Alright, each player gets three shots. When everybody's taken a turn, the team with the most points wins. Got it?" "Hang on, will you be participating?" Applejack questioned. "That depends," Silver Arrow told her. "At first, the teams were even, eleven to eleven. Pinkie's down, making it eleven to ten." "Am I shooting?" Flash asked Windlash hopefully. "Do you want pony ears and a doll?" "... No?" "Flash is shooting," Windlash confirmed. "That makes it ten to twel-" "WAIT!" Sour Sweet ran up to Silver Arrow and whispered something in her ear. After a moment, Silver Arrow nodded. "Alright, I won't be participating," she stated. "What?" Rainbow Dash cried. "You just said we'd be up against twelve!" "You'll do fine," Silver Arrow assured them. "Who's first?" "I am!" Indigo Zap yelled, stepping up. She did all the preparation stuff and then shot the arrow. "Bulls-eye!" she cheered when the arrow hit the center of the target. Descent and Nightingale high-fived her. Zero wrote down a three on the Shadowcolt's side of the scoreboard. Indigo made five more points, and she got a power up of pony ears and a tail. Sonata went like this: On her turn, she scored a point and a half. Adagio, Aria, and Applejack face-palmed. "Hey, I got ears and a tail!" she exclaimed after the experience happened to herself. "No wings, though. I wonder why?" Aria groaned. "My turn," Windlash commented. As she gained pony ears, a pony tail, and a set of feathery wings, her arrows hit the target every time. "Nine points!" Zero exclaimed, writing the number down on the scoreboard. "Isn't she amazing?" Flash asked Descent. Descent punched him in the arm. "There's a reason i'm the only dude in the Shadowcolts," he replied. Flash put a finger up to protest. Descent rolled his eyes. "Don't protest." Meanwhile, the Rainbooms were losing 29-31. Almost everybody on the team had been ponied up. The last girl to go would be Fluttershy. "You can do this, Fluttershy!" Rainbow Dash cheered. "Um, yeah." A bead of sweat slid down Fluttershy's brow. "Don't worry, Fluttershy!" Sunset encouraged. "Eep!" Fluttershy released her arrow too soon! It flew way off course. No where near the target. A complete bust. "Zero points!" called out Zero. "It's alright, Fluttershy!" Applejack enouraged. "Yeah, the only thing on the line is Pinkie Pie's very personality!" Sonata Dusk added. "Chill!" "Uh, pleasestopsayingstuffyourmakingmenervousthanks!" Fluttershy squeaked, trying to align her arrow properly. "What was that, darling?' Rarity asked. Fluttershy glanced away. "What was tha- Oh no!" She accidentally let go, and the arrow flew up in the sky. Once again, she had missed the target. "One more chance," Adagio pointed out. "Let's hope you don't miss," Aria added. Fluttershy missed. "That's zero points added!" Zero announced again. "Ouch!" Lemon Zest mimicked being burned as she remarked snidely, "That burns!" "It's my turn now!" Sour Sweet exclaimed, walking up to the line. To be continued...
Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 7"Do us proud, Sour," Windlash told her, her new wings fluttering confidently. Pinkie snorted in her sleep again. Sour Sweet grinned as she lined up her gaze with the target. "Gumdrops!" she exclaimed brightly as she released it. The arrow flew straight to the target. Bulls-eye. The Mane 11 minus Pinkie groaned as Sour Sweet acquired pony ears, a pony tail, and a set of wings matching her skin color. "We're never gonna wake Pinkie now!" Applejack exclaimed, slumping down on the ground, her long pony tail curled round her feet. "We can't let her personality be drained away!" Sonata added nerviously. "Yes!" Sour Sweet announced triumphantly. The Mane 11 minus Pinkie looked back at the competition. They hadn't paid attention to the competition for the past two seconds. Sour had gotten three bullseye hits. Fluttershy bit her lip. "That's nine points for our team!" Windlash proclaimed triumphantly. "We win!" "No!" cried Rainbow Dash desperately. "You can't! Pinkie Pie!" "You give us our friend back right now!" Applejack exclaimed angrily, grabbing her bow. "There's more than one target I can shoot at, ya know!" "You wouldn't dare, not on school grounds!" Windlash taunted. "Actually, you lose," Zero interrupted. Windows glared at him. "Will you stay out of- wait, what?" "Sour Sweet was shooting for the Rainbooms," Silver Arrow explained. "What?" Lemon Zest gasped. "Not true!" Sugar Coat added crossly. Sour Sweet beamed sheepishly and shrugged. "Pinkie said she'd be my friend after this," she explained. "But I knew she wouldn't if her magic was taken away!" "Well, we still have another archer!" Windlash protested. "Flash Sentry!" "REALLY?" Flash squealed in a high pitched, fan-boying voice. Stars flashed in his eyes. "OMG! I won't fail you, Windlash! I promise!" Despite the intensity of the situation, Sonata, Rarity, Aria, Glasses, and Adagio gagged. "Can you believe this is what you'd have to put up with if you had actually married him?" Glasses remarked. Twilight stuck her tongue out. To put it simply, Flash lost. "We win!" Sunset yelled. "Give us back Pinkie Pie!" "Ha!" Windlash sneered. "You aren't getting her magic back!" She held up several red things. "Our pendants!" Adagio yelled, pointing in anger. "Flash must have given her the information!" Aria added. "Hey, you're smart!" Descent cried. "Now come and catch us!" Before the Mane 11 knew it, the Shadowcolts had jumped up on their motorcycles and sped away. "Sunset, Twilight, Glasses, Fluttershy, stay with Pinkie Pie!" Rainbow Dash directed. "We'll go after the Shadowcolts!" "Who made you leader?" Adagio protested. "Yeah, I'm the smart one!" Glasses added. "Just go!" Rainbow Dash shouted, pointing to the motorcycles. She and Sonata got on one. Aria and Rarity got on another. Adagio and Applejack got on the final one. The six ponified girls sped off after the Shadowcolts on their motorcycles. "Lead them down an alleyway!" Applejack yelled to Rarity. "Rainbow, ya head them off on the right! I'll cover the left flank!" Rainbow nodded and did the "ehm" noise people do in anime like Pokemon whenever they nod. Applejack slammed her boot on the pedal and made a sharp right. "Watch the hair!" Adagio screeched. "Sorry!" Applejack yelped, not feeling too deeply about Adagio's dead skin cells but she still felt like it was the polite thing to do. Soon, she spotted Indigo Zap on a motorcycle up ahead. "There ya are." Applejack smirked, narrowed her eyes in concentration, and speed once more. "Hey!" Indigo screamed when AJ and Adagio pulled up next to her. "Get back to Canterlot High and heal Pinkie Pie!" Applejack screamed. "Yeah!" Adagio screamed. "What she said!" After a bunch of action scenes, Applejack and Rainbow and Rarity managed to bring all the Shadowcolts to a dead end. "We won! Fair and square!" Applejack yelled. "Give us Pinkie Pie's magic back!" Rainbow yelled, flying over to Windlash. Windlash's yellow eyes betrayed no fear. "Never!" she cried. She attempted to fly, but this being her first transformation, she had no idea what to do. Rainbow Dash, however did. "Look, girl, we can do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way. GIVE HER BACK!" Rainbow's hair became a blazing fire. "Super Dashie!" Rarity and Sonata screamed. Now Windlash was terrified. "Alright, alright!" She agreed. "I'll come back with you and heal her!" Rainbow Dash smirked. "That's what I thought." She and her friends dragged the Shadowcolts back to campus. There, Windlash and the Shadowcolts performed an incantation over Pinkie's sleeping body. At first, Pinkie didn't stir. "Why- why isn't she waking?" Twilight asked nervously. "I don't know," Windlash snapped, "ask Miss Cheespuff over here." "Hey, I never did this stuff!" Adagio snapped. "That was a good insult, though," Aria added. "How come I never thought of it?" "Hi!" Pinkie suddenly jumped up. "Guys, I had the weirdest dream about bigfoot!" "Pinkie!" screamed all her friends. They rushed in for a hug, tears springing to the eyes of everyone. Silver Arrow smiled. "Another happy ending," she observed. "As for you, Windlash..." "Wait, what?" Windlash asked in disbelief. "You have no authority to give punishment! Heck, you obviously aren't even in their friend group!" Silver Arrow rolled her eyes. "That's where you're wrong." She smirked as pony ears winked into existence. A pair of extra sparkly wings took shape on her back. Her bow changed from teal to pink and red. Her outfit was transformed into a Greek style dress. "Whoa!" Sonata gasped, noticing the transformation. The rest of the Mane 11 turned to look. "Silver Arrow, Cupid." She pulled a bow into her quiver. "And if you don't want to be hopelessly in love with Flash Sentry for the rest of your life, you'd better start running." "WHAT THE HECK?" Windlash screamed. She ran. Author's Note Just an epilogue to go!
Or as I called it, Sportsapalooza! Part 8 (Epilogue)"That was freaky," Applejack remarked later that afternoon. "I never woulda expected you ta be Cupid, Silver Arrow." "Yeah, I hate my duties," Silver Arrow answered, examining her fingernails. "I use them on occasion." "Will you join our friend group?" Twilight asked. "She should," Aria added. "Sorry guys, you're too wacky for me. I'm leaving." "Our adventures drive you off the deep end!" Pinkie added, doing another somersault. "Eh, why not?" Silver Arrow shrugged. "So what happened to Whiplash and Flash?" Rarity asked. "Them? I hit Flash, he's probably stalking her in San Neighiego," Silver Arrow explained. "Stupid equine puns," Aria muttered as she walked back into school. "I have to go now, guys," Twilight told them. "Bye!" Everyone called as she walked back through the portal. "Oh, well I hope nobody will sabotage this summer's fashion show at Rarity's resort!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed loudly. "'Cause Glasses, if you make us an epic bus, just for our group, I seriously might consider calling you awesome." Glasses rolled her eyes. "I don't even know what you're referencing." She rubbed her glasses. "Group hug to end this adventure!" Sonata and Pinkie exclaimed. Adagio, Applejack, Fluttershy, Glasses, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Silver Arrow, Sonata, and Sunset Shimmer hugged. "Twilight's gonna try to skype us," Sunset mentioned. ROLL CREDITS
