My Little Gunray?

The next morning, OOM-9 woke up. He saw Pinkie Pie sleeping. He then tiptoed out of the bed, but Pinkie Pie heard the OOM Commander.

"OOM-9, where are you going?" Pinkie asked.

OOM-9 turned around in shock. "I thought you were sleeping still," he responded.

"Well I was sleeping, but then you got up from the bed," Pinkie told the OOM Commander.

"Let me go ask the Cakes when breakfast is going to be ready," OOM-9 said as he started to walk downstairs.

The OOM Commander Battle Droid walked downstairs as Pinkie Pie jumped out of the bed and followed him. When OOM-9 went downstairs, he saw a note on the front table. He grabbed the note.

Dear OOM-9 and Pinkie Pie, we have gone shopping and we'll be back later. Be good!
-Mr. and Mrs. Cake

"Oh, well that's great!" the OOM Commander yelled.

Pinkie came down and saw the OOM Commander. "What's so great?" she asked.

"The Cakes left us here by ourselves!" he told Pinkie.

"That's fine! I'll go over to Rarity's to get some food for me, while I get food for you at the C-9979s," she said.

"Roger, roger," OOM-9 responded.

After he said that, Pinkie was gone in a flash.

Gunray was walking down the road with Rarity back to Carousel Boutique.

"Um...Viceroy..." Rarity started.

Gunray looked down at Rarity. "Yes, Rarity?" he asked.

"Do you want...to, uh...hang out later?"

Gunray looked at Rarity confused.

"Hang out?" he asked. "What does that mean?"

"Well...I....um..." she started.

Then Pinkie Pie ran up to the Neimoidian and the unicorn.

"Hi, Rarity! Hi, Viceroy!" Pinkie chirped.

As they were walking, there was a big mud pile ahead of them.

"Hey Viceroy, want to have some fun?!" Pinkie asked the Viceroy of the Trade Federation.

"Ummm, what kind of fun?" he asked.

Then Pinkie ran in front of the mud pile and jumped into it. The mud went all over Gunray while Rarity only had a little bit on her. Gunray looked at his clothes.

"Umm, thank you, Pinkie Pie," Gunray said worried.

"You're welcome!" Pinkie chirped as she walked away.

Rarity looked at Gunray's clothes. "Oh my! Gunray, your outfit!" she screamed.

"Rarity, it's no big deal" Gunray told her.

"Yes it is!" Rarity yelled as she used her magic to drag Gunray with her.

"Where are you taking me?!" Gunray asked.

"To Carousel Boutique of course! You need to be cleaned!"

This will be fun, Gunray thought.

When they got to Carousel Boutique, Gunray took a bath and Rarity scrubbed him. Since Gunray didn't take a bath since the Cad Bane episode, Rarity scrubbed his back really good to the point where Gunray's back was shiny. She did several outfits for the Neimoidian while he finished scrubbing himself. Rarity put her latest outfit on Gunray as he got out of the tub with a towel.

"How does it, look?" she asked.

"Umm, it looks fine. But Miss Rarity, I must go back to the C-9979 to-" Gunray started.

"But Viceroy, I have several more outfits for you to try on!" she cried.

Gunray groaned. He stood there for hours while she'd taken measurements, adjusted the outfits and then started completely new ones whenever a bolt of inspiration hit. After a while, Gunray had finally cracked. He couldn't take it any more and saw the window. He wanted to jump out, but Rarity was standing right there. After 5 hours, Gunray almost passed out. Rarity walked over with the last outfit.

"Here you go, Viceroy! Try it on!" she said.

Gunray looked at the outfit. It was a new gold Neimoidian outfit and he had a new hat that looked like his old one but it had gemstones on it. To the Neimoidian's surprise, it fit him perfectly. Looking at himself in the mirror, he couldn't help the smile that showed on his face. "This...this is actually very nice, Miss Rarity. Thank you."

"See?" Rarity said. "You don't have to be scared of me."

"Also, can I have some of your gemstones?" he asked politely.

Rarity looked at Gunray. She blushed. She never thought Gunray would like her Neimoidian outfit.

"Right away!" she said. "Also, take a look at your blaster rifle."

Gunray looked at his E-5 Blaster rifle. He saw it was covered in gemstones and painted gold. She had written the words 'Viceroy Gunray' on the side of the E-5. Gunray thought of Rarity.

Wow! he thought. She actually cares for me. I love this E-5 Blaster rifle! It looks...so...me?

Rarity came back with the gemstones.

"Here's five gemstones," she said as she handed them the Gunray.

Gunray smiled at Rarity and she smiled back.

"Rarity, about that hangout, do you still want to go out as friends?"

Rarity looked at the ground. She loved Gunray in the other way, but Gunray only wanted to be friends. Before Rarity could answer, they heard screaming upstairs.

"That sounds like Rune!" Gunray stated.

"We have to help him!" Rarity yelled.

The Neimoidian and the unicorn ran upstairs to Sweetie Belle's room.

At the Dragon's Volcano, the recon droid spied on them. The red dragon told everydragon the plan.

"We will take over Equestria by force! The time has come!"

All of the dragons roared and stomped their feet.

"We leave now to destroy this new menace that is aiding our enemies! To battle!" the red dragon commanded.

Then all of the dragons flew out of the Dragon Volcano and headed towards Ponyville. The recon droid sent the information to OOM-9.

"I'm BAAAACCCCK!" Pinkie yelled as she entered Sugarcube Corner.

OOM-9 looked at her.

"Hi, Pinkie," he said.

Pinkie walked over to OOM-9 with a plate of 3 oil pancakes. He sat down in one of the chairs.

"Rarity gave some pancakes but the line for the C-9979s was packed!" she explained as she poured oil syrup on the oil pancakes. "I mean, several battle droids were trying to get some breakfast before it was too late."

"Yeah. That's how it always is. It's battle droid morning rush hour," the OOM Commander replied.

Pinkie put OOM-9's plate of oil pancakes down as the OOM Commander started to eat. Pinkie got her pancakes and started to eat next to the OOM Commander Battle Droid.

"OOM-9?" Pinkie asked as she cut the pancake with her knife and fork.

OOM-9 turned and faced Pinkie.

"Yes?" the OOM Commander gobbled his food.

"Do you think I'm weird?" Pinkie asked.

"Well, I'm starting to get used to your personality. I think it's cute. You're cool, Pinkie Pie, and we can be best friends!"

Pinkie's eyes grew. She was so excited that the OOM Commander wanted to be her friend that she tackled the Battle Droid Commander to the ground. Pinkie literally turned into a rocket and exploded with joy, bouncing about rambling about everything she and OOM-9 were together as friends.

"Calm down Pinkie!" the Battle Droid Officer shouted.

"I'm...so..HAPPY!" she yelled.

Pinkie bounced and then and knocked over OOM-9's oil pancakes.

"NOOOO!!!" he shrieked.

The oil pancakes spilled and the OOM Commander was very sad.

"There goes my breakfast," OOM-9 said sadly.

Pinkie looked at OOM-9. She knew he was sad. OOM-9 was just about to walk upstairs when the recon droid contacted him. The Commander Battle Droid put his left hand on his head to access the comlink.

"Yes, recon droid?"

The recon droid told him everything about the red dragon's plan to takeover Ponyville.

"Return to base!" he commanded. "I'll warn the Viceroy!"

Then OOM-9 got off of the comlink with the recon droid. The OOM Commander then faced Pinkie.

"Come on Pinkie! We have to warn the Viceroy and the others that the dragons are going to invade Ponyville!"

OOM-9 walked out of the door. Pinkie slowly followed. She was sad since she knew OOM-9 was sad.

Rarity and Gunray ran into Sweetie Belle's room and saw an angry Haako.

"She is driving me CRAZY!" the Settlement Officer yelled.

"What did she do now?" Rarity asked.

"First, she asked me to play with your fashion, then she got your secret diary, and now, she's trying to work on her latest fashion design!" Haako screamed. "I told her no on everything, but she wouldn't listen! I thought punishing her would be good, but I didn't know what you would do!"

Gunray and Rarity looked at each other.

"SWEETIE BELLE!" Rarity yelled.

Sweetie Belle walked up to the Neimoidian and unicorn.

"Yes?" she asked Rarity.

Rarity's face was red. Gunray had never seen Rarity get this mad before.

"You know what's going to happen!" she threatened. "YOU WENT INTO MY DIARY! WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT DOING THAT?!"

Rarity walked closer to Sweetie Belle as Haako jumped over to Gunray.

"Oops," she said.

"This isn't going to be good," Gunray stated. "Thank you folks for reading this chapter! Now, I'll close the curtain before Rarity starts beating up Sweetie Belle! And I assure you, you don't want to see this part."
