Chapters The Adventures Of Thunderbolt
"I hope I'm not too late!" shouted Adam as he struggled to reach his house before it hit 12:00 noon. "Almost there!" he gasped. Adam then trips on a rock and falls on the ground. "Ouch!" he shouted, feeling slightly embarrassed, but then he got up and kept on running. After running for more than 20 minutes, Adam finally reached his house. He then opened the door, ran inside, and shouted, "Mom I'm home from school!"
Adam's mom called from upstairs and said: "Oh, you're home early."
"Yeah school let out early today, and I wanted to make sure I didn't miss today's episode," said Adam as he turned on the TV to the Hub Network.
"Today's episode of what?" Adam's Mom shouted back.
"Today's new episode of My Little Pony!" Adam turned up the volume of the TV, sat down and began to watch the episode.
"Woo! That was some episode!" Adam said with a smile, as he turned the TV off. "Man, Rainbow Dash is so awesome! I wish I could meet her in real life, she is so beautiful the way she soars through the air!" Adam thought out loud. After watching the episode, he started on his homework and was finished by 11:00 p.m.
With it being so late, Adam's mom called from upstairs, "Adam, it's time for bed!"
"OK" Adam replied. He ran up the stairs and headed to the bathroom to brush his teeth. As Adam reached for his toothbrush, he thought to himself, "I wonder if there are any Bronies at my school? I will have to check tomorrow." After brushing, Adam walked to his room and got ready for bed. He then got down on his knees and prayed to God before he leaped into bed only to end up falling off the edge of it. "Ouch! Why does that always happen to me!?!" Adam shouted. "Oh well brand new day tomorrow, hopefully I will be able to build up the courage to actually make some real friends tomorrow." With that said, Adam fell into a deep sleep and thought of only what tomorrow would bring.
Meanwhile in Equestria...
Twilight begins to run frantically around her library. "Spike!" Twilight calls out, "Have you seen my quills!?! Spike!"
Spike immediately comes running down the stairs. "Yes Twilight what is it? What's going on?"
Twilight looks at Spike, "Spike, have you seen my quills? I can't seem to find them anywhere."
"Well... where did you leave them last? Spike asks.
Twilight walks over to her bookshelf and looks around it, "I think I put it around--" Before she can finish there is a huge explosion followed by a large flash of light coming from outside.
Spike dives right underneath the covers of his bed.
Twilight looks straight toward her library window and asks, "What was that!?!"
Spike peaks out from under his sheets, "I don't know, but whatever is was, it sounded big, really big..."
Twilight runs toward the door of her library and opens it, then looks back at Spike, "I'll be right back ok Spike, I just need to find out what that loud explosion was."
Spike gives Twilight a nod and then goes back to hiding underneath his covers.
Twilight shuts the door behind her, then looks in the distance to see a trail of smoke leading to where the explosion came from. She begins to follow the trail of smoke which leads her to the crash site.
Not long afterward, Pinkie Pie sees Twilight and hops right beside her, "Hey Twilight!" Pinkie says with a smile, "Did you hear that large explosion?!? It came out of nowhere! I was just minding my own business like doo dee doo dee doo and all of a sudden..." Pinkie Pie jumps up in the air in a popping motion "BOOM!" "Then I saw you and I was like, hi Twilight! And then I hopped my way over to you! Soooo....where you headed?"
Twilight continues to run, "I'm going to find out what made that loud explosion"
Pinkie Pie lets out a huge gasp, "Can I come too! I love mysteries!"
Twilight looks at Pinkie Pie "Of course you can, just try and keep up"
Pinkie Pie gives a smile and says, "Okie Dokie Lokie!" Just as Pinkie Pie says that, the other mane 4 ponies run up beside Twilight and Pinkie Pie.
"Did you hear that loud explosion?" Rainbow Dash asks.
"I did, it woke Angel bunny up from his nap." replies Fluttershy with a soft, gentle voice.
"So did I, it nearly gave Granny Smith a heart attack!" shouts Applejack.
"It nearly ruined one of my most precious gowns!" states Rarity.
Twilight looks at the five ponies beside her, "Don't worry girls, whatever made that noise, we're about to find out." The ponies begin to get even closer to the large cloud of smoke.
After 15 minutes of running, the mane 6 finally reach the large crater from where the explosion originated from.
Twilight looks down into the crater, "I can't see anything... it's too cloudy." The other mane six maneuver their heads to look into the cloud of smoke. Suddenly there is some movement in the midst of the smoke.
Rainbow Dash points in the direction of the movement, "Look! Over there, I saw something!" All the ponies look into the direction Rainbow Dash is pointing. Just then, the smoke finally clears revealing a black pony, with a yellow mane, lying on the ground. The mane six slowly walk into the crater towards the sleeping pony until they're looking over him.
Rainbow Dash gives a puzzled look, "A pony?"
"Aw he is so cute" says Fluttershy with a little smile.
The black pony squints his eyes while slowly opening them.
"Look, I think he is waking up." says Fluttershy.
The black pony's eyes shoot open. "AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!" screams the black pony as he backs away from the mane six.
Rainbow Dash takes to the air, "Whoa! Didn't expect that!"
The black pony stares at the mane six then thinks to himself "Wait...the mane six? But how!?! When did... how did I get here?" he looks down at his hooves and gasps, "I have hooves!!! I'm not sure whether to be happy or completely shocked to death here!" The black pony looks up at the mane six to see they're giving him a strange look.
Twilight begins to walk to him, but Rainbow Dash puts her hoof in front of Twilight and says, "Wait! How do we know he isn't like... bad or anything?"
Twilight looks at Rainbow then at the stallion, "He doesn't look dangerous, it just looks like we frightened him. Let me try talking to him."
Rainbow Dash looks at the stallion then back at Twilight "Ok... but if he tries anything we're right here."
Twilight nods then starts moving towards the stallion again. She sits down right in front of the black stallion. "Hi I'm Twilight Sparkle, what's your name?"
The stallion looks at Twilight, "I'm Ad...." Adam thinks to himself, "wait... a second, if I tell them my real name, they'll think I'm crazy and might reject me..." Adam looks up at Twilight, "My name is... Thunderbolt" Thunderbolt gets up from the ground and stands on all fours while saying, "I'm gonna have to get use to this..."
Twilight gets up as well and looks at Thunderbolt, "What was that?"
Thunderbolt quickly looks away, "Oh never mind"
Twilight looks at her friends, "Oh I have to introduce you to my friends."
Thunderbolt looks straight at Twilight, "The Mane six!?!?!? Um... I mean, oh no you don't have to do that..."
Twilight pulls on Thunderbolt's hoof, "No I want you to meet them" says Twilight with a sweet smile.
Thunderbolt looks down at Twilight holding his hoof. "Oh... ok, just promise me they won't try to hurt me" says Thunderbolt nervously.
Twilight nods and leads Thunderbolt to her friends. "Hey girls, this is Thunderbolt."
Thunderbolt smiles and waves at the five ponies in front of him.
Twilight points at Fluttershy, "This is Fluttershy."
Fluttershy blushes and says, "Hi..." with a very shy voice.
Thunderbolt gives her a grin, "Hello Fluttershy"
Twilight points to Applejack next, "This is Applejack" Applejack tilts her hat, "Howdy Thunderbolt."
Thunderbolt nods his head, "Hi Applejack a pleasure to meet you."
Pinkie Pie gives Thunderbolt a big hug and says, "I am so going to throw you a special welcome to Ponyville party for you!"
Twilight chuckles, "That's Pinkie Pie"
Pinkie Pie squeezes Thunderbolt even harder, causing his eyes to pop out of his head as she squeezes him.
"Ok... ok... It's nice to meet you Pinkie Pie... but if you don't stop squeezing me... there won't be a pony worth throwing a party for..."
Pinkie Pie lets go of Thunderbolt, "oops sorry" Pinkie Pie says with a huge smile.
Twilight looks at Rarity, "That's Rarity"
Rarity flutters her eyes at Thunderbolt, "Hello Darling"
Thunderbolt feels a little nervous "Eh heh heh... Hi Rarity"
Twilight points at Rainbow Dash, "And this is---"
"Rainbow Dash!" Thunderbolt interrupts with excitement. All the ponies stare directly at him in shock.
"How did you know that was my name?" asks Rainbow Dash.
Thunderbolt looks at the mane six, shrugs, and says, "Um... lucky guess?" He then stares at Rainbow Dash and is instantly love-struck while his eyes completely turn into beating red hearts.
Rainbow Dash looks at Thunderbolt with a very confused and annoyed look on her face and asks, "Why are you staring at me like that?"
Thunderbolt shakes his head snapping himself out of it, "Um... nothing", he says blushing slightly.
"Um... Excuse me Thunderbolt?" Twilight asks.
Thunderbolt looks at Twilight and answers, "Yes Twilight?"
"If you don't mind me asking, I was wondering, where did you come from and how did you get here?" Twilight asks.
Thunderbolt observes himself from top to bottom, then looks up at the mane 6 while replying: "I don't know..."
Twilight looks at her friends with a very worried look on her face, "Well I think I may know somepony who just might."
"Who might that be?" Thunderbolt asks.
Twilight turns to face Ponyville and looks back at Thunderbolt, "Come on, I'll take you to her." she begins to walk towards Ponyville before Rainbow Dash puts her hoof in front of her yet again.
"Twilight, are you sure that's a good idea, to take a pony we don't even know into a place full of innocent ponies!?!" asks Rainbow Dash.
Twilight looks at Thunderbolt, "Don't worry Rainbow Dash wherever this pony came from, I'm pretty sure Princess Celestia will know" Twilight continues walking to Ponyville, with her friends and Thunderbolt following close behind.
As the ponies walk through Ponyville, Twilight shows Thunderbolt around town for a little bit while making their way to the train station. In the process, Thunderbolt is able to see SugarCube Corner, Rarity's Boutique, and even CloudsDale. Once the ponies finally arrive at the train station, they buy a ticket to Canterlot Castle. Aboard the train, dark clouds begin to cover the clear blue sky.
Pinkie Pie peeks her head out of the train, "OOOOH! Looks like we are about to get some rain!" Pinkie Pie grabs an umbrella from her mane and begins to sing, "It's raining it's pouring the old mare is snoring!"
Thunderbolt simply looks out the window at the dark clouds, closes his eyes, and sighs.
Twilight walks over to Thunderbolt and asks, "Are you ok Thunderbolt?"
Thunderbolt slowly opens his eyes and turns to look at Twilight, "Yeah I'm ok..."
The train pulls into the station at Canterlot Castle and lets all the ponies off.
Thunderbolt looks directly up at the Castle as he walks off the train, "You took me to Canterlot!?!?!" Thunderbolt shouts, causing the mane 6 to look at him.
"Yeah how else were we suppose to talk to Princess Celestia?" Rainbow Dash asks.
Thunderbolt gives a very upset and nervous look at the mane six, "I don't know! Maybe send her a letter!?!" shouts Thunderbolt in anger.
"But then we wouldn't be able to show you to Princess Celestia" Applejack says.
Fluttershy puts a hoof on Thunderbolt's shoulder. "It's ok, Thunderbolt, Princess Celestia can be really nice."
Thunderbolt looks at the ground and says, "Ok... let's go", while letting our a deep sigh. The mane six walk into Canterlot Castle.
Inside, the ponies approach two giant doors that lead into the throne room.
Thunderbolt looks around the room nervously, "Wait!" he shouts. The mane six look back at Thunderbolt wondering what was wrong. "Um... how do we know we are even allowed to be here?" Thunderbolt asks.
Twilight smiles at Thunderbolt and says, "Don't worry Thunderbolt, I'm pretty sure Princess Celestia will be happy to see us." Twilight uses her magic to open the two giant doors and when she does, there is green goo all over the throne room walls. The mane six look all around the room.
"EEW! Whoever decided to design the throne room this year did an awful job!" states Rarity.
Twilight frantically looks around the room for Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. Some green slime drops on Twilight's nose and when she looks up, she sees Princess Celestia and Princess Luna encased in a green chrysalis. "Princess Celestia!!!" shouts Twilight.
"They can not hear you!" a mysterious voice calls out. Suddenly a tall black Alicorn with green eyes walks out from behind Celestia's throne. The mane six gasp in horror as they realize who it is.
"Queen Chrysalis!" Twilight says with enmity .
"Hello Twilight Sparkle, its been a while!" says Queen Chrysalis with an evil grin.
"What do you want?" Twilight asks.
"Oh nothing much", says Chrysalis, "Just... my revenge!" Queen Chrysalis then fires a green blast at Twilight, but misses and hits Rarity's hooves instead.
Rarity tries to move, but it's no use. "Twilight! I'm stuck... Eww and it's green, I hate green!"
Twilight looks back to see Rarity sealed in Chrysalis' green goo.
Queen Chrysalis fires several more blasts at Twilight's friends trapping them too. She then turns to face Twilight, "Looks like it's just the two of us now!"
Twilight gets into her fighting position while Thunderbolt hides behind Rarity.
"My hero..." Rarity sarcastically grumbles to herself.
Twilight fires a beam of magic at Chrysalis, but Chrysalis creates a magic shield blocking the attack, then Chrysalis fires a beam of magic back at Twilight. Twilight uses her wings and takes to the air dodging the blast. Chrysalis fires again, aiming to blast Twilight's wing, Twilight is hit and smashes against the ground with a thud. At the sight of her successful shot, Chrysalis, smiles an evil grin. Twilight with her injured wings struggles to stand up.
"Come on Twilight, you can do it! Go Twilight!" her friends yell.
Twilight finds the strength to stand on her hooves. Chrysalis feeling quite confident in herself, continues to fire at Twilight. Twilight manages to hop out of the way from every single one of her blasts, but Chrysalis aims just right and traps one of Twilight's hooves in her green goo. Twilight struggles to get herself free, but Chrysalis fires a second shot trapping all four of Twilight's hooves.
Chrysalis lets out a maniacal laugh, "MWAHAHAHAHA! Finally I have defeated my most hated enemy and taken down the most powerful Princess in the history of Equestria!" Queen Chrysalis soon spots Thunderbolt hiding behind Rarity, "Well, what have we here?" she asks and then levitates Thunderbolt over to herself.
"No!" Twilight shouts. She and the mane six struggle even more to get free.
"And who might you be, my little one?" Chrysalis asks.
"None of your business Chrysalis!" Thunderbolt replies as he spits in her eye.
"UGH!" Queen Chrysalis shouts with disgust, "You're going to wish you hadn't done that!" Chrysalis throws Thunderbolt out of the window, he plummets to his doom.
"No! Thunderbolt!" Twilight shouts.
Queen Chrysalis then lets out a maniacal laugh...."MWAHAHAHAHA!"
Thunderbolt spins in mid air as he falls to his doom. Suddenly a large lighting bolt from the dark clouds above, strikes Thunderbolt with a great flash of yellow light! "AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!" Thunderbolt screams in pain as his cutie mark suddenly forms on the side of his flank. His eyes then begin to glow a bright white and his wings get a massive surge of energy. Thunderbolt with a crack of thunder sets off flying straight back up to the castle.
Queen Chrysalis points her horn at Twilight, "Now I, Queen Chrysalis, shall be the first pony in history to destroy the most powerful Princess in all of--"
"Do you ever stop talking about yourself?" Twilight interrupts.
"Silence!" Queen Chrysalis yells, "This ends now!" she shouts as she fires a massive green blast at Twilight.
"NOOOOOOO!" shout Twilight's friends as they watch in horror.
Twilight closes her eyes and places her head down accepting defeat.
Thunderbolt comes crashing through the roof of the castle just in time to land in front of Twilight as the blast hits.
"TWILIGHT!!!" the mane five call out.
Chrysalis laughs with amusement, "MWHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Just then the smoke clears and Twilight is unharmed along with Thunderbolt. Twilight lifts up her face and sees Thunderbolt standing right in front of her, (by the way Thunderbolt is standing on his hind hooves), Twilight and her friends gasp. Queen Chrysalis stares at Thunderbolt with a very unhappy look on her face, "Impossible!"
Thunderbolt moves his hooves in a circular motion charging his electricity, "When you're a Christian, Nothing is impossible!" Thunderbolt then fires a giant blast of yellow lightning at Chrysalis.
"NNNNOOOOOOOO!!!!" screams Chrysalis as she is sent flying out of the castle and into the sky disappearing once and for all. The blast is so strong that it ends up destroying all of the green goo everywhere freeing the mane 6 and the Princesses. Thunderbolt's eyes begin to flicker and then turn back to normal, he blinks twice before fainting shortly afterward.
Thunderbolt awakes to somepony calling his name.
"Thunderbolt!!!" Twilight calls out.
Thunderbolt slowly opens his eyes to see Twilight and the mane 6 standing around him. "What happened!?!?" Thunderbolt leans up and looks around frantically, "Please tell me nopony kissed me?!?!"
Pinkie Pie rolls her eyes in Thunderbolt's direction with a smile on her face. "Well--"
Celestia walks up to the mane 6 and clears her throat.
Twilight turns around and shouts, "Princess Celestia!" as she runs to give her a big hug.
"Hello Twilight", Celestia says with a smile, "What are you all doing here?" she asks.
Twilight lets go of Celestia, "I was just about to ask you the same question, What was Queen Chrysalis doing here?"
Celestia turns her face away from Twilight, "It was a trap... we never saw it coming...."
"She took my sister and I by surprise... we thought she was you" says Luna as she walks up and stands beside Celestia, "But the important thing is, that you saved us and put a stop to Queen Chrysalis."
"Well actually Princess Luna it wasn't me, it was--"
Celestia spots Thunderbolt on the ground, "Who is this?"
Twilight turns around to look down at Thunderbolt and says, "Um...well It's actually a really funny story..."
One funny story later... (<- read this in the most dorky way possible)
"And that is why we came to see you..." Twilight says with a sigh.
Celestia shoots a glare at Thunderbolt as he leans back feeling intimidated.
"So do you know where he came from?" Twilight asks.
Celestia walks closer to Thunderbolt and leans in for a better look, "Hmmmm...." Celestia says as she examines Thunderbolt.
"Does he look foreign sister?" Luna asks.
"He doesn't look like anything foreign..." Celestia replies.
"Hey!" Thunderbolt says feeling slightly offended, "I'm not... foreign?"
"He doesn't sound any different from the ponies in our colture either", says Celestia.
"So you don't know where he came from... do you Princess Celestia?" Twilight asks.
Celestia looks down at Twilight with an unsure expression on her face, "I'm afraid not...."
"WAIT A MINUTE!" Rainbow Dash says as she butts into the conversation, "So what...he's just gonna stay here!?!"
"I'm afraid so..." Celestia replies.
Rainbow Dash glares at Thunderbolt, "But he doesn't belong here!!! Can't you just send him back to where he came from!?!"
Celestia shakes her head. "UGH!" Rainbow Dash says with frustration as she flaps away from the conversation.
"Looks like you're gonna be stuck with that pony for a little while, until I can get more information on the whereabouts of where he came from" explains Celestia as she looks directly at Twilight.
Twilight looks back at Thunderbolt as he gets up from the floor and dusts himself off, "I'm pretty sure I'll work something out...Thank you for your help Princess Celestia and Princess Luna", Twilight says as she bows down to both of them and they bow back. Twilight, her friends, and Thunderbolt exit the throne room with Celestia still staring at Thunderbolt.
"Hmmmm..." Celestia says feeling very suspicious.
Luna looks up at her sister, "Everything alright, my dear sister?" Luna asks.
"Yes... I'm alright", says Celestia with a very uneasy expression on her face, while the doors close slowly behind Twilight and her friends as they leave the castle.
The mane 6 take the train back home to Ponyville. On the way there, they begin to talk about everything that had just happened.
"Man! I would have to say that is by far the most exciting visit we have ever had to Canterlot Castle!!!" Pinkie Pie says, "I mean first we were there to talk about our newcomer but then, Chrysalis showed up and Rarity was all like EW! Then we were all like UGH! And Twilight was all like Grrrrrr! But then Thunderbolt was all like--"
Twilight puts a hoof over Pinkie Pie's mouth, "Pinkie Pie!", Twilight shouts, We can't let anypony know about that!"
"Why not?" asks Rainbow Dash.
"Because, Rainbow Dash, if anypony knows who we are taking into Ponyville and how powerful he could be, it could start a massive panic!" Twilight says.
"I don't think it was even a good idea to check out that crater in the first place!" shouts Rainbow Dash with anger, "If we never would have gone to see what it was, we never would have been in this mess!"
"I think it was a good idea that we went to that crater", Rarity says, "I mean there is no telling who else would have found him."
"Would ya'll stop yelling at one another!" Applejack shouts, "I mean, it's not like it's gonna fix anything! What is done is done!" The mane 6 continue to debate with one another as Thunderbolt sits in the far back end of the train, far away from the yelling.
"Dear God", Thunderbolt prays, "I don't know what is really going on here or why You brought me here, but I know that You are in control of all things and that in due time You will work everything out as You say in Romans 8:28." Fluttershy watches Thunderbolt as he prays. "I pray that you will give me the faith to trust in You with all my heart", Thunderbolt continues, "No matter what the circumstances, in Jesus name, Amen." Thunderbolt puts his head in his arms as he lays on the table in front of him. Fluttershy simply stares at him as the train pulls into the station.
Once the train comes to a complete stop, the mane 6 get off the train with Thunderbolt following close behind. In the distance, the sun begins to go down in the horizon.
"Looks like it's getting late you guys, we better head home" says Twilight.
"Well I'm gone, good luck with that... thing you have there with you Twilight" Rainbow Dash says as she flies off into the sky.
"I'm going to get going too, darling", says Rarity as she yawns, "So goodnight girls", Rarity walks off to her boutique. Before long everypony else goes their separate ways as well, and soon it is just Twilight and Thunderbolt left at the train station. Thunderbolt starts to walk off into Ponyville.
"Where are you going?" Twilight calls out to him.
"I'm going to find someplace to stay, for who knows how long I'm gonna be staying here."
"How about you come stay with me and Spike" says Twilight with a smile.
Thunderbolt looks back at Twilight and asks, "Really!?!"
"Yeah, I'm sure Spike won't mind having another pony stay with us", Twilight replies.
Thunderbolt runs up and gives Twilight a big hug, "Thank you so much Twilight!!!!!"
"Um.... you're welcome Thunderbolt", Twilight says. Thunderbolt lets go of Twilight and starts walking towards her Library.
"Wait!" Twilight calls out, but Thunderbolt doesn't hear her, "How does he know where he is going?" Twilight asks herself, but she just shrugs it off and follows Thunderbolt to her Library.
"Well here we are", Twilight says as she walks inside her tree house.
Thunderbolt comes in behind her and looks around the place, "I like it...it's very uh... spacious", says Thunderbolt with a smile.
"Your room is up there", she says pointing upstairs.
Thunderbolt looks up to where Twilight is pointing, "Oh thanks Twilight, Well goodnight" , says Thunderbolt as he walks upstairs to his room.
"Goodnight!" Twilight calls back.
Thunderbolt walks into his room, shuts the door behind him, and hops on his bed only to fall off the edge, "OUCH!", Thunderbolt screams in pain, "Every stinkin time!" Filled with frustration he climbs back onto his bed. "Man what a day, I can't believe I'm in Ponyville this must be a dream come true", he says with confidence, "Sure Queen Chrysalis got in the way and I got struck by lightning, but it was no big deal." he puts the covers over him and looks up at the ceiling, "But still, I could have died when I was thrown out of that window... so what happened when I blacked out?" Thunderbolt looks down at his side, "Wait, where did this come from?"
To Be Continued...
The Adventures Of Thunderbolt
Episode 2 Mayhem In Manehatten
The sun comes up over the horizon as morning dawns. The sunlight shines in through the window of Thunderbolt's room. He rolls in his bed tossing and turning, "Five more minutes mom! Please!" shouts Thunderbolt. He slowly opens his eyes to the piercing rays of sunlight, "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" he screams as he falls out of his bed. He rubs his eyes trying to clear his vision. Once he does, he looks around his room, "Oh yeah I forgot I'm not in my universe anymore..." Thunderbolt gets up from the floor and stretches out his wings and yawns, then begins to walk downstairs to see where everypony is. As he reaches the bottom of the stairs he sees Twilight fixing herself some coffee.
"Good morning Thunderbolt" Twilight says with a smile, "I take it you slept well?"
"Yeah... I slept ok" replies Thunderbolt. He then looks down at his side and turns his head with curiosity, "Hey Twilight?" Thunderbolt asks, "Can I ask you a question?"
Twilight looks up from her coffee, "Of course, what is it?"
Thunderbolt walks closer to Twilight and sits down right next to her, "I wanted to know where this came from." He looks straight down at his side, as does Twilight.
"I thought you knew?" Twilight asks.
"No I don't remember having this when I first came to Equestria..." says Thunderbolt feeling very concerned.
"It's nothing to be afraid of" says Twilight, "It's just your cutie mark, perfectly normal, everypony has one. Though I still wonder how you managed to get it in such short time. Anyway, would you like some coffee?" Twilight asks.
Thunderbolt nods his head in agreement.
Twilight walks over to some shelves in her kitchen and begins preparing some coffee for Thunderbolt.
Meanwhile Spike comes walking down the stairs feeling extremely tired and pulls up a chair right next to Thunderbolt.
Thunderbolt turns his head to face the half asleep dragon and says, "Hi"
Spike turns his head to see Thunderbolt and immediately jumps out of his chair and runs to the other side of the room and starts screaming, "Twilight! Twilight! There's a stranger in your tree house!!!"
Thunderbolt jumps out of his seat and dives under the table, "Where!?!" he shouts.
Twilight comes running out of the kitchen, sees Spike in the corner of the room, and Thunderbolt hiding underneath the table and asks, "What is going on here!?!
"You never told me there was a stranger living in your tree house!" Spike says furiously.
Thunderbolt sticks his head out from underneath the table, "You never told me that either!"
Twilight gives a very irritated look at both of them, "How about we all sit down, relax, drink some coffee, and I'll explain everything.
Thunderbolt comes out from underneath the table and Spike walks out from the corner of the room. They both sit down as Twilight explains everything.
"So let me get this straight you have no idea where this pony came from or even what this pony is capable of and you're letting him spend the night here in your tree house!?!" Spike asks.
"Yes Spike" Twilight says, "He has to stay somewhere, I'm not just gonna let him live out in the streets, that would be cruel!"
Thunderbolt just sits there, listening to Spike and Twilight's conversation, as he sips his coffee. Once Twilight and Spike finish their conversation, they turn their heads to look at Thunderbolt.
"What are you looking at me for?" Thunderbolt asks, "Is there something in my teeth? Speaking of teeth do you guys brush your teeth at all or--?"
Suddenly, Rarity slams the door open to Twilight's tree house and shouts, "TWILIGHT!" Causing Thunderbolt to jump and spill his hot coffee all over him.
"OOOWWW!!!!!" Thunderbolt screams in pain.
"Spike!" Twilight shouts, "Get Thunderbolt some napkins would you please."
"Of course" Spike replies, as he runs into the kitchen to grab some.
Rarity runs over to Twilight with excitement written all over her face and shouts, "Twilight! Twilight!" "What is it Rarity?" Twilight asks.
"I have just gotten the biggest order from one of my number one clients!" Rarity explains, "They want me to present my design in Manehatten by tomorrow night!"
"Wow, congratulations Rarity, I'm so happy for you" says Twilight.
"But that's not all!" replies Rarity.
"What do you mean?" asks Twilight.
"They said I could bring somepony along with me!" Rarity shouts with excitement, "And I've chosen... you darling!"
Twilight gives her a warm smile, "Aw thank you Rarity, but I'm afraid I have a meeting with Princess Celestia this afternoon." Twilight explains, "She wants us to discuss more about the mysterious pony we found yesterday."
Rarity lowers her head in disappointment, "Oh well... that's too bad darling."
Twilight looks behind her to see Spike still trying to wipe all of the hot coffee off of Thunderbolt, "Although... I think I know somepony else who could go with you Rarity" Twilight says with a smile. Rarity looks back up at Twilight, "Who?"
"Why don't you take Thunderbolt along with you, he's never been to Manehatten before" explains Twilight, "Just promise me you'll keep an eye on him ok?"
Rarity looks at Thunderbolt narrows her eyes and gives a mischievous smile, "Oh I'll keep my eye on him alright, don't you worry about a thing Twilight."
"Why are you making that face?" Twilight asks.
"Oh Thunderbolt, darling, I must speak with you!" says Rarity as she trots toward him.
Spike finishes getting Thunderbolt dried up and admires his work, "There you go, all clean, how do you feel Thunderbolt?"
"Not as wet as before, thanks Spike" Thunderbolt says as he rubs Spike's head.
"Aw stop..." Spike says with a smile. He then spots Rarity heading towards him, "Now's my chance!" Spike shouts as he runs towards Rarity then gets down on his knees and pulls out a ring. "Rarity would you be my--"
Rarity walks right past Spike up to Thunderbolt and says, "Hello darling"
"Oh hey Rarity" Says Thunderbolt with a smile.
"I just wanted to say I'm sorry about the whole coffee incident..." says Rarity with sadness in her voice.
"Oh that's ok Rarity, it was an accident" replies Thunderbolt.
"So Thunderbolt, I wanted to ask you, how would you like to come to Manehatten with me?" Rarity asks.
"Sounds like fun!" Says Thunderbolt, "I'd love to go!"
"Oh that's fantastic darling!" Rarity says as she moves in closer to Thunderbolt, "I'm sure we will have a magnificent time together."
Thunderbolt scoots his chair away about an inch.
"Well darling, meet me at the train station in about 3 hours ok? See you then." Rarity says as she walks out the door.
Twilight turns to see Spike crying a river of tears and Thunderbolt still sitting in his chair simply staring at the door. She walks closer to Thunderbolt and asks, "Looks like Rarity might have a little thing for you Thunderbolt." Twilight says with a mischievous smile.
"You think!?!" replies Thunderbolt.
After about 3 hours, Thunderbolt walks down to the train station to meet Rarity.
"Oh you made it darling!" Rarity says with joy.
"Of course I wouldn't miss going to Manehatten for the world!" Says Thunderbolt, "So, um, where are your outfits?"
"Oh, I put them on the train ahead of time while I waited for you" states Rarity.
"Oh, well, arighty then" Thunderbolt says with a smile.
"All aboard!" The train conductor shouts. Thunderbolt and Rarity hop on the train as it moves out of the station. The train moves across the tracks as it shakes the ground with it's mighty engine. Thunderbolt and Rarity sit aboard the train relaxing and enjoying the train ride.
Rarity begins to get bored so she decides to strike up a conversation with Thunderbolt, "So Thunderbolt... what do you look for in the perfect mare?" Rarity asks.
"Well... she would have to be beautiful, kind, and has to have wings" replies Thunderbolt.
"You know I use to have wings!" Rarity shouts as she moves in closer to Thunderbolt.
"Oh really?" Thunderbolt asks, "You don't say... So, um, how long will it take before we get there?"
"Oh the trip takes all day, but that's ok, at least we have each other to talk to" Rarity says with a smile. Thunderbolt's eyes get extremely big as he leans back against his train seat.
"So tell me Thunderbolt, would you like to know who kissed you when you passed out yesterday?" Rarity asks.
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Thunderbolt screams as the train drives right into the horizon of a beautiful sunset.
The trip takes all day, but the train finally pulls into the station of Manehatten. Thunderbolt slowly opens his eyes to the burning, scorching rays of sunlight. He looks down to see Rarity leaning on him fast asleep and drooling all over him. Thunderbolt shakes Rarity trying to wake her. Rarity simply snuggles up closer to Thunderbolt. (In my opinion this is so cute!)
"UGH!" says Thunderbolt with a sigh. He then begins to start poking her, "Well at least the rumors were true, she does feel like a marshmallow." Thunderbolt keeps trying to wake Rarity, "Rarity! Rarity!" Thunderbolt shouts, "You're gonna be late for your meeting with your customer!"
Rarity immediately gets off of Thunderbolt and begins to look around frantically, "Oh no! We're here already!?! What time is it!?!"
Thunderbolt looks out the window, "Um it's morning..."
Rarity leaps right off of the seat and runs to the back of the train. She comes out of the train with all of her dresses and gowns, "I'll see you later darling!" Rarity says as she runs off into Manehatten. "Um, ok... bye" says Thunderbolt, feeling slightly confused. He walks off the train and takes a long good look at Manehatten, "WHOA!" says Thunderbolt with amazement. He walks into the great city and sees ponies galore, buying things and greeting one another to his left and to his right. "Well I'm here, might as well make my stay worth while!" Thunderbolt shouts with joy.
(Insert epic montage music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-Y3Q8vLJ0Y )
Thunderbolt goes to Times Square where he meets Lyra and Bon Bon hanging out by a water fountain. He then goes to see some of the most famous art work done by somepony named RainbowKid and Foala Talents at the art museum. Thunderbolt then takes a ferry to see the Statue of Friendship where he makes friends with a pony named MadyZ then they get their picture taken together by some stranger named Peter Pony Parker. Finally, he goes to the very top of the Empire State building and looks out at all of the amazing buildings, "Man! This place is great!" says Thunderbolt as he continues walking through the streets of Manehatten. Suddenly he sees Vinyl Scratch in the distance running straight toward him waving and shouting, "Hey!"
Thunderbolt looks around to see who she could be calling out to, but before he can react, Vinyl Scratch runs right up to him and says, "Hey I know you!"
"You do?" Thunderbolt asks.
"Yeah, of course I do, everypony knows who you are, you're the mysterious pony the mane 6 found in a crater a couple days ago!" Vinyl Scratch explains.
"Oh yeah... that's me" Thunderbolt replies feeling uneasy.
"Oh, where are my manners" says Vinyl, "The name's Vinyl Scratch"
"Nice to meet you Vinyl Scratch, my name's Thunderbolt, a pleasure to meet you" replies Thunderbolt with a smile.
"So, what are you doing here in Manehatten, Thunderbolt?" Vinyl asks.
"Oh I'm just visiting here with a friend, why are you here Vinyl?" Thunderbolt asks.
"I'm here for the new dance club that is opening tonight!" Vinyl says with excitement. "And it was rumored that Remix is gonna be there."
"Remix?" Thunderbolt asks feeling very confused.
"DJ Remix! The world famous music artist! Vinyl shouts as she points to a nearby billboard with DJ Remix's face on it.
"Oh..." says Thunderbolt, "So what makes you like him so much?"
"Him and I are almost exactly 100% the same! Well except that he's a stallion and I'm a mare, but still, that's besides the point!" Vinyl explains, "He loves the same music I do, he loves dubstep like I do, and he is so cool!!!"
"Wow! He sounds like some pony alright" says Thunderbolt with a smile, "So what time does his dance club open?"
"I believe it's around 8:00 pm." replies Vinyl, "I was just about to head down to the club to wait in line before it opens, did you wanna come?"
"I don't know..." Thunderbolt replies, "I'm not much of a dancer..."
"Oh, come on! You can't possibly be as bad as Octavia" Vinyl says with a chuckle, "Besides it'll be fun!"
Thunderbolt roles his head around with dread, "Oh... alright..."
"Sweet!" Vinyl says aloud, "Well I have to go change, I'll meet you at the club though, ok?"
"Alrighty then" Thunderbolt replies.
"Be sure to save me a spot in line!" Vinyl shouts as she runs off to her hotel.
"Wait!" Thunderbolt calls out, "Why are you changing? You're not even wearing any clothes!" Vinyl Scratch doesn't hear him. "And she's gone..." Thunderbolt says with a sarcastic voice, "Ok, if I were a dance club where would I be?" He starts to look around Manehatten for the dance club, but as he begins his search the sun begins to go down in the horizon.
After a good 20 minutes, Thunderbolt finally finds the dance club, and walks up to the security guard. "Hello good sir, I was wondering if I might gain access to your--"
"If you want entry..." The security guard interrupts, "You're gonna have to wait in the back of the line!"
Thunderbolt turns around and sees a line longer then the tail of a dragon, "Aw.... man..." He says with disappointment as he walks to the back of the line. By the time Thunderbolt nears the back of the line he is crawling on his belly, "Ugh! he says with a grunt, "Almost there..." with one last push forward, he finally reaches the very end of the line, and stands on all fours. Thunderbolt looks around for Vinyl Scratch, but there is no sign of her anywhere. Just then he gets a tap on his shoulder, he turns around to see Vinyl Scratch standing right behind him
"Sup" asks Vinyl Scratch.
"Hey! I was wondering when you were gonna show up." Thunderbolt says with surprise.
"Yeah, I had to get changed" Vinyl replies with a smile.
Thunderbolt examines Vinyl Scratch to see what she changed about herself, "I see you put on a jacket and a bow?"
"It's not just any jacket!" Vinyl Scratch shouts, "It's an exact replica of DJ Remix's jacket and this bow I made myself, look, it even has his cutie mark on it!"
"Yikes Vinyl! I can tell you really want to meet him!" replies Thunderbolt.
"You bet I do!" says Vinyl.
"Well I don't think you'll have to wait long, we're almost to the front of the line!" Thunderbolt says with excitement. Soon Vinyl and Thunderbolt reach the front of the line.
"Can I help you?" The security guard asks.
"Yes" replies Thunderbolt. "We would like to gain entrance to your dance club please" says Thunderbolt with a smile.
"Tickets please?" The security guard asks as he holds out his hoof. Vinyl and Thunderbolt exchange looks with one another, "Tickets?" They say both say at the same time.
"Um... we don't have any tickets" says Thunderbolt.
"No ticket, no entry!" says the guard.
Thunderbolt peeks into the club to see everypony dancing and having the time of their lives, "But sir, Vinyl here really wants to meet DJ Remix!" Thunderbolt pleads.
"I'm sorry, but no ticket no entry" The security guard repeats.
Vinyl pushes Thunderbolt out of the way and uses her magic to remove her shades, "Look buster, I'm going into that club, now we can do this the easy way or the hard way!" Vinyl says with anger. Thunderbolt tugs on Vinyl's hoof, "Come on Vinyl we don't want any trouble."
"No I want trouble!" says Vinyl. The guard and Vinyl glare at one another until...
"Security!" the guard shouts. Suddenly Vinyl and Thunderbolt are tackled by over 20 guards.
"I can't believe they banned us from the dance club!" Vinyl shouts with anger.
"Well, you did say you wanted trouble" says Thunderbolt as he sits on the cold hard sidewalk.
"Now, I'll never get to meet DJ Remix!" says Vinyl as she kicks a can across the sidewalk with her hoof, then sits on the sidewalk beside Thunderbolt, "All I wanted was to meet somepony who was just like me... now I never will..." A tear slowly drops from Vinyl's face as she begins to sob.
Thunderbolt turns his head to Vinyl Scratch and gives a her a look of pity. Vinyl soon gets up and begins to walk away.
"Wait!" Thunderbolt calls out, "Where are you going?"
"I'm going home Thunderbolt... the only place I can truly be happy..." Vinyl says as she walks off into the night.
Thunderbolt lowers his head and stares at the ground, then closes his eyes in sorrow.
"Are you sure this will be enough?" says a mysterious voice.
Thunderbolt's ears perk up to the sound of talking. He then lifts his head from the ground and looks around the area, but sees nopony.
"Yeah this should be enough" says another mysterious voice.
Thunderbolt stands up and follows the sound of the mysterious voices. As he searches, he is lead to the back of the dance club where he finds two stallions, wearing jackets that have the name 'Upbeat' written on them, conversing with one another. Thunderbolt hides behind a trash can and continues to listen to the conversation. Just above, three ponies stare down from the top of the dance club listening in as well. One of the stallions places something that looks like an explosive near the building and says, "Man I hate this guy so much"
"Yeah I agree Bass, there can only be one DJ and it's definitely not this guy" says the other stallion as he lights a match. Thunderbolt tries to sneak away, but knocks the trash can over in the process, causing the two stallions to look in Thunderbolt's direction.
"Hehehe hi.... I was just looking for the little stallion's room..." Thunderbolt says awkwardly.
"Get him!" Bass shouts.
"AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!" -- screams Thunderbolt as he runs away in fear. The three ponies above follow Thunderbolt and the two stallions.
Meanwhile, Vinyl Scratch continues to walk toward her hotel, until she hears the sound of Thunderbolt screaming like a filly, "Is that who I think it is?"
"Vinyl help!" screams Thunderbolt from the distance. Vinyl Scratch rushes towards the sound of Thunderbolt's cry.
The two stallions running after Thunderbolt manage to catch up to him and back him up against a corner.
"We're gonna teach you a lesson about sticking your nose into other ponies' business!" says Bass with an intimidating voice as his partner and him move closer to Thunderbolt.
"Hey leave him alone!" a mysterious voice comes from behind the two stallions. As they turn around Vinyl jumps over their heads and lands right in front of Thunderbolt and shouts, "How about you pick on somepony your own size!"
"Vinyl!" Thunderbolt shouts with joy.
"Fine, we'll take you both out!" Bass shouts.
"Bring it on!" Vinyl taunts.
"Seriously, how are you and Rainbow Dash not friends?" Thunderbolt asks. Suddenly a can of spray paint is thrown to the back of Bass's head.
"Ouch!" says Bass as he turns around to see who hit him. As he looks behind him, he sees a dull blue pony with a brown mane, dressed in a black jacket and baggy jeans wearing a backward cap, tossing a can of spray paint in the air and catching it. "Hey you, Beat it, before we pound you too!" says Bass aggressively.
"How about you come and make me?" the mysterious pony taunts. Bass and his partner run at the mysterious pony with aggressive force. The mysterious pony quickly pulls out a can of spray paint and blinds Bass's partner.
"AAHH my eyes! I can't see!" Bass's partner screams as he runs straight into a wall and falls to the ground. Bass tries to punch the mysterious pony, but the mysterious pony falls to the ground avoiding the attack.
"Now I've got you!" shouts Bass.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you!" shouts a female voice. Bass looks up to see a pretty grey mare with a purple mane, wearing a black and white checkered blouse with a black jacket, a fedora, and dark blue and violet socks, standing in front of him.
"And what do you want!?! A kiss?" Bass asks.
"No" replies the mare, "A nice bonk on the head would be great though... NOW!" Suddenly an orange pony, with a red Mohawk wearing a blue snow cap, bonks Bass on top of the head with a broken TV and knocks him out.
"WOO!" shouts the orange pony, "Now that was fun!" Thunderbolt and Vinyl approach the strange ponies who just saved their lives.
"Um... thanks" says Thunderbolt feeling awkward.
"You're welcome" replies the pony with the backward cap.
"Who are you guys anyway?" Vinyl asks.
"You can call me StreetsWise" The pony with the backward caps says, "The mare is Vira Broadia Way and the other stallion is Cadet. But you can call us the BackStreet Ponies."
Thunderbolt stares at the mare for a small moment, "You're pretty" says Thunderbolt.
"Oh, why thank you" replies Vira Broadia Way, "You're not so bad looking yourself"
Thunderbolt turns his head and blushes.
"So why did you save us?" Vinyl asks.
"We have been following these stallions for weeks, we knew they were up to no good, but we didn't know exactly what their plan was. We were about to get the drop on them, until your friend over here got the two stallion's attention." While the five ponies are talking, Bass gets up from the ground and makes a run for it.
StreetWise turns to see Bass getting away, "Hey!" he shouts. The five ponies then begin their pursuit after Bass, but it's too late, by the time they reach him, Bass is standing before them, holding a lit match over the explosives he had previously placed behind the dance club.
"Don't do anything foolish!" shouts StreetWise.
Bass gives an evil smirk, then drops the match, "Long... live... DJ Upbe--" the bombs explode killing Bass and setting the dance club on fire. Everypony inside the club began to panic and scream in fear.
"The dance club is on fire! We have to help!" shouts Thunderbolt.
"Vira Broadia Way you will be in charge of getting the ponies on the upper levels out of the building. As for Cadet and I, we will handle the downstairs." explains StreetWise.
"What do you want us to do?" Thunderbolt asks. StreetWise turns to Thunderbolt just as Vira and Cadet run into the burning building. "Do what you can to help..." StreetWise says as he joins Vira and Cadet into the building.
"We have to help!" Vinyl says, "DJ Remix could be trapped in there!"
"I can't..." Thunderbolt replies.
"Why?" Vinyl asks.
"I'm not like those ponies... I'm just me..."
Vinyl takes Thunderbolt by the shoulders, "You don't need to be a hero to help out, Thunderbolt...Now if you excuse me, I have a stallion to save!" Vinyl then builds up all her courage and runs into the burning building.
Inside the building there are flames everywhere, covering the walls and burning everything it touches. Vinyl does her best to maneuver around the burning hot flames to look for DJ Remix. She begins to cough from all the smoke around her. Not long afterward, she hears the sound of sompony else, other than her, coughing as well. Vinyl makes her way through the flames following the sound of coughing, it soon brings her to the DJ's audio work station where she finds a white pony with a black jacket, wearing a watch and black glasses. "DJ Remix!" Vinyl shouts.
"That's me..." DJ Remix replies with a cough.
"I need to get you out of here!" Says Vinyl as she struggles to pick up DJ Remix.
"Usually it's the stallion that rescues the mare... not the other way around..." DJ Remix says trying to lighten the mood.
Suddenly a large piece of the roof crumbles down and pins Vinyl and DJ Remix to the ground. Vinyl tries using her magic to lift the large piece of rubble, but it's not use. She lets out a cough, "I don't think we're gonna make it... DJ Remix..." says Vinyl with a hopless look on her face. She takes ahold of DJ Remix's hoof, "But at least I got to meet you face to face..." Vinyl says as a tear drops down her face. As the two ponies endure their last moments together, Vinyl feels some of the rubble move, "What was that?" Vinyl asks.
"I don't know" replies DJ Remix.
Vinyl looks over to her left to see Thunderbolt trying to lift the rubble, "Thunderbolt!" Vinyl shouts. "You came to help..."
"Of course I did, I wasn't gonna let you go in there alone..." Thunderbolt says as he struggles to lift the rubble.
"It's too heavy Thunderbolt... you can't lift it yourself..." Vinyl says with despair.
"Who said I was alone?" Thunderbolt says as he turns to his right to show the BackStreet Ponies helping to lift the rubble. The four ponies give one big tug and they finally manage to remove the large piece of rubble off the two DJ ponies. Vira picks up Vinyl and Cadet picks up DJ Remix and they both escort the two ponies out of the building with Thunderbolt and StreetWise following close behind them. The 7 ponies make it out of building just in time before it explodes in a ball of fire with smoke trailing in the sky. Not long afterward the Fire Fighter ponies show up to put out the flames.
As the Fire Fighter ponies slowly put out the fire, Thunderbolt dusts himself off from all the dirt and rubble. He turns to spot the BackStreets ponies talking with one another not far from the building, he walks up to them and says, "Hey guys I just wanted to say... thanks for helping me out today..."
StreetWise gives a nod and says, "You're welcome...um--"
"Thunderbolt" he interrupts, "You can call me Thunderbolt."
"You're welcome Thunderbolt, if you ever need us you know where to find us." Says StreetWise just before he runs off into the night. Vira Broadia Way gives Thunderbolt a wink before she follows her leader into the darkness.
Cadet just simply runs after them both and shouts, "Hey guys when we get home did you wanna watch some TV!!!"
Thunderbolt starts walking back to the building that use to be in flames to look for Vinyl Scratch.
Just then, he is approached by DJ Remix, "Yo bro I wanna talk to you!"
Thunderbolt looks around to see who DJ Remix could possibly be talking to, but before he can react DJ Remix runs right up to Thunderbolt and says, "Yo man I just wanted to say thanks for saving me and getting me out of that jam."
"Oh um... no problem, sorry about your dance club though" replies Thunderbolt.
"Eh it's replaceable bro" DJ Remix says with a smile.
"Well I appreciate the thanks, but I think the pony you need to thank is over there..." Thunderbolt says as he turns around DJ Remix to see Vinyl scratch standing by the Fire Fighter ponies.
Vinyl stares at the burnt building that use to be the dance club and lowers her head in sadness.
"Hey" a familiar voice calls from behind her.
Vinyl turns around to see DJ Remix standing right behind her. She lets out a large squeal of excitement as she puts her hooves over her mouth.
"Sup kid" says DJ Remix.
"Hi..." Vinyl responds in a very shy voice.
DJ Remix moves closer to Vinyl Scratch, "I've heard yo music, it's very impressive." DJ Remix explains, "I've also heard you're into dubstep as well, you know I've been searching for a pony who shares my same interests. I believe you fit the bill perfectly."
"Really!?!" Vinyl says with a squeal.
"Yeah, with your music and mine, we can make some wicked beats together" replies DJ Remix, "Plus I never got to thank you for trying to save my life."
"Well go ahead say it" says Vinyl.
DJ Remix uses his magic and removes his glasses revealing his red eyes underneath, "Oh no that is not how I thank mares" DJ Remix says.
"Then how do you--"
DJ Remix rushes in and kisses Vinyl Scratch.
Vinyl's eyes go wide before she slowly closes her eyes wraps her arms around DJ Remix and embraces the kiss.
Thunderbolt stands in the distance watching the whole scene, "Well, looks like my work here is done" he says with a smile, "Oh wait a minute! I was suppose to meet Rarity back at the train station!" Thunderbolt shouts as he takes for the train station.
Thunderbolt approaches the train station and sees Rarity already aboard the train, ready to leave. Rarity spots Thunderbolt and shouts "Where have you been darling!?! I've been waiting here for more than an hour!"
"All aboard!" The conductor shouts as the train begins to pull out of the station.
Thunderbolt quickly hops on the train just before it pulls out, "Sorry Rarity" says Thunderbolt as he sits down next to Rarity, "I was in the middle of a love affair" he says with a smile.
Rarity crosses her hooves with a very unpleasant look on her face, "I don't care, you made me wait here in the beautiful moonlight with nopony to talk to! And to think I--"
Thunderbolt gives Rarity a big hug and says, "Thank you for bringing me on this trip Rarity, you're the best!"
Rarity smiles and embraces the hug, "You're very welcome darling."
As the train heads back to Ponyville, the BackStreet ponies watch from the roof tops above, then jump over the side and disappear into Luna's precious night.
The End
The Adventures Of Thunderbolt
Episode 3 Pinkie Problems
"Um... are you sure this is such a good idea Twilight?" Thunderbolt asks as he looks over the cloud.
"Well you're gonna have to learn how to fly sooner or later" replies Twilight.
"Yeah, plus I wanna see you go splat if you don't make it" mocks Rainbow Dash.
Thunderbolt begins to shake uncontrollably.
"Relax Thunderbolt" says Twilight with a soothing voice, "You can do this, it's not as hard as it looks, just imagine you're as light as a feather"
"Or you know, you could always imagine yourself as a boulder that's plummeting down to Earth like an asteroid!" Rainbow Dash jokes.
"Rainbow!" Twilight says with stern voice, "You're not helping the matter"
Thunderbolt looks over the side of the cloud once again and lets out a whimper.
Twilight flies right in front of Thunderbolt and says, with a word of encouragement, "You can do this Thunderbolt I believe in you." Twilight moves aside and lifts her hoof signaling Thunderbolt to go.
Thunderbolt takes a deep breath, backs up as far as he can go, and runs right off the edge of the cloud flapping his wings rapidly, "I'm doing it! I'm doing it! I'm flying!"
Thunderbolt sits on the bench in the Ponyville park wearing a sling around his arm and a bandage on his forehead with a very irritated look on his face. He looks up at the sky to see Rainbow Dash soaring through the clouds performing tricks left and right. Thunderbolt's eyes immediately turn into red beating hearts and lets out a sigh as he watches her in the sky.
Twilight flies by and lands right beside the bench. She walks over and sits right next to Thunderbolt and lowers her head, "I'm so sorry about what happened..."
Thunderbolt shakes his head snapping himself out of it, "Um... it's ok Twilight, you were only trying to help."
"I never should have pushed you so hard to--"
"Twilight!" Thunderbolt interrupts, "It's ok..." he says with a smile.
Twilight lifts her head up and smiles back at him.
"Besides..." says Thunderbolt as he takes off the sling and bandage, "I wasn't really hurt that bad anyway. I was just faking it to get Rainbow Dash's attention."
Twilight lets out a chuckle as they both look up at the sky.
"You really like her... don't you?" Twilight asks.
"What are you talking about?" Thunderbolt replies.
"Rainbow Dash" says Twilight, "You really like her, don't you?"
Thunderbolt turns his head and blushes, "Well I wouldn't say that... I just really like her... flying. It's very impressive."
Twilight smiles at Thunderbolt and goes back to looking at the sky, "Yeah, I know what you mean, flying is really incredible, its learning to do it, that's the hard part, but don't worry you'll get there in time."
Thunderbolt lets out a sigh then jumps off the bench and stretches, "So how did the meeting with Princess Celestia go when I was in Manehatten?"
"It went well" says Twilight, "She wants to see me again though, to talk more about it in the following week."
"Well ok" says Thunderbolt as he walks off.
"Where are you going?" Twilight calls out.
"I'm going for a stroll around Ponyville for a little bit, they're still so many things I haven't seen yet!" Thunderbolt shouts back.
Twilight leans back in the bench only for her to suddenly hear the sound of a portal opening nearby. She turns around and scans the area to see where the sound supposedly came from, but sees nothing out of the ordinary. Twilight shrugs it off and goes back to leaning on the bench.
Thunderbolt walks around Ponyville, getting better glimpses of the things he didn't get to see real well when he first came to Ponyville. Meanwhile, a strange figure in the shadows follows Thunderbolt secretly everywhere he goes. Thunderbolt begins to feel like he is being followed so as he walks he continually looks over his shoulder. As he walks through the peaceful town he catches a short glimpse of a pony with a Mohawk, wearing a blue suit and tie, running in the distance with a light gray mare following him. He doesn't think anything of it and continues to walk around town with the mysterious shadowy figure still following him.
"Are you sure these boards are good for games?" Thunderbolt asks feeling very unsure.
The brown and white pony nods, "Yes I'm sure, I made it myself!"
"What did you say your name was again?" Thunderbolt asks.
"Diamena Dice" the brown and white pony replies, "If you aren't interested in my boards then I'm afraid you don't belong here."
Thunderbolt shrugs and walks off, "I wonder what else they sell here?" Just then Thunderbolt is tackled by the mysterious figure that was following him. Thunderbolt shuts his eyes as he struggles to push the mysterious pony off of him. As he continues to struggle he hears a familiar giggle and opens his eyes to see Pinkie Pie laying on top of him, "Pinkie?"
"Hi!" Pinkie Pie says with a wide smile.
"Um... hey... have you been following me this whole time?" Thunderbolt asks.
Pinkie Pie nods and gets off of Thunderbolt, "Sorry about the blunt force, I hope I didn't hurt you in anyway possible."
"Nah you're fine... I'm still wondering though, why you were following me?"
"I needed your help with something!" says Pinkie Pie.
"Why didn't you just come up and tell me that? Instead of you playing commando in the dark?" asks Thunderbolt.
"Eh... it's more fun to sneak up on ponies who don't even know you're there" exclaims Pinkie Pie with a smile.
"If you say so..." says Thunderbolt feeling slightly awkward, "So um... what did you need me for?"
"There's a pony who came to Ponyville recently and I have to gather supplies for his welcome to Ponyville party, and I thought hey! I know another pony who recently came to Ponyville, so then I thought who better to help me plan this party then you!"
"Gee, thanks Pinkie Pie" says Thunderbolt, "I'm flattered, I'd love to help!"
"Perfect!" says Pinkie Pie. She then pulls out a list from her mane and opens it up. It unravels and falls to the ground.
"So, what's first on the list?" asks Thunderbolt.
"Well the first thing on my list is rock candy!" shouts Pinkie Pie.
"Sweet! Where do we find that!?!" Thunderbolt asks.
Pinkie Pie maneuvers Thunderbolt to look towards a large mountain in the distance, "over there!"
Thunderbolt looks up at the mountain, his ears go down, and he frowns, "All the way up there...?"
Pinkie Pie nods, "Yup, That's where the best rock candy is found! Come on let's go! Pinkie shouts as she walks toward the large mountain.
Thunderbolt gulps and follows Pinkie Pie towards the mountain.
By the time the two ponies reach the large mountain, Thunderbolt is breathing heavily and sweating like a sprinkler. The two ponies stare at the mountain for a good 5 minutes, until Pinkie Pie breaks the silence, "Well we're not gonna get those rocks just standing here, lets go!" Pinkie Pie proceeds up the mountain leaving Thunderbolt at the bottom. She turns around and sees that Thunderbolt isn't following her. Pinkie Pie hops back down the mountain to Thunderbolt and asks, "Is everything ok Thunderbolt?"
Thunderbolt looks at the ground then back at Pinkie Pie, "Yeah I'm... I'm... just...uh... I'm..." he takes a deep breath, "I'm afraid of heights!"
Pinkie Pie falls on the ground and begins to start cracking up, "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!"
"What are you laughing at?" Thunderbolt asks in irritation.
"That's all?" Pinkie Pie asks still laughing.
"Yes that's all..." says Thunderbolt turning his head in embarrassment, "I should have never come here... I knew you would laugh at me...." he lowers his head and starts walking back towards Ponyville.
Pinkie Pie pops up right in front of him, "And where do you think you're going?"
"I'm going back to Twilight's where I know nopony will make fun of me there!" says Thunderbolt as he turns away from her in anger.
Pinkie Pie takes a second to think about what she has done and puts her hoof on Thunderbolt, "Um Thunderbolt?"
"What?" asks Thunderbolt.
"I'm sorry I laughed at you, I didn't know you were so sensitive in that area" says Pinkie Pie filled with regret.
Thunderbolt turns and smiles at her, "I forgive you Pinkie Pie."
The two ponies hug one another then let go.
Thunderbolt looks up at the mountain, "Well... guess this means I can't go up there to get the rock candy with you..." says Thunderbolt with relief.
"Don't worry" says Pinkie Pie "I've got an idea!"
"Are you sure this will work Pinkie Pie?" asks Thunderbolt with concern.
"Don't worry says Pinkie, "With this blindfold you won't see anything!"
"That's what I'm worried about..." says Thunderbolt filled with dread.
"It'll be fine! I'll talk you through it and tell you where to walk!" Pinkie Pie says with a chuckle.
"Ok... whatever you say Pinkie" says Thunderbolt.
Pinkie Pie starts to lead Thunderbolt up the mountain with him, not seeing where he is going at all.
Thunderbolt suddenly stubs his hoof against a rock, "OW!" he screams in pain.
"Oh watch out, there's a rock!"
"Yeah no kidding..."
He stubs his hoof against another one.
"OW!"
"Sorry"
"OW!"
"Sorry"
Thunderbolt continues to walk with Pinkie's so called guidance, until all is quiet, "Hey Pinkie Pie, I think I'm getting the hang of this..."
There is no answer from Pinkie Pie.
"Pinkie Pie? Hello? You there? Can I take off the blindfold?" Thunderbolt being completely oblivious, has no idea he is dangling right over the edge of a cliff. He takes off the blindfold and looks down, "Kinda figured I was gonna be standing somewhere near a cliff" Thunderbolt slowly lifts up his head and screams, "AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Filled with fear he runs all the way to the top of the mountain leaving a trail of smoke behind him.
As he runs to the top of the mountain a hoof comes out of nowhere, reaches out, grabs Thunderbolt and pulls him to the side.
"Hey!" says Pinkie Pie with a smile, "You made it!"
Thunderbolt takes a breath of relief," Pinkie! Where were you!?! I nearly fell off a cliff!"
"Sorry I got distracted" says Pinkie.
"By what?" Thunderbolt asks.
Pinkie Pie holds up a rock, "By this! I managed to find one of the rocks we can use for rock candy!"
"Only one?" Thunderbolt asks.
"No silly!" Pinkie Pie laughs, "There is more in there!" she says as she points inside a large dark cave that they're standing in front of.
Thunderbolt pops his head into the cave, "It's really dark in there... how are we ever gonna see?"
"With this!" Pinkie Pie says as she pulls out a torch from out of nowhere.
Thunderbolt stares in shock "Where did you get that!?!"
Pinkie Pie shrugs, "I just found it laying on the ground."
"But that doesn't make any..." Thunderbolt lets out a sigh, "nevermind..."
Pinkie Pie hooves Thunderbolt the torch.
"Why are you giving me the torch?" Thunderbolt asks.
"How else are you gonna see in the dark to find the rocks!" Pinkie Pie says with a smile.
"You want me to go in there!?!?" Thunderbolt asks with fear suddenly overcoming his body.
"Yes silly, that's why I gave you the torch!"
Thunderbolt looks down at the torch, then inside the dark cave, "Are you sur--"
"yup!" Pinkie Pie interrupts.
Thunderbolt gulps and walks into the cave with the torch.
Inside the cave, Thunderbolt moves the torch around him. Shining light in certain places to find the rocks Pinkie was talking about, "I'm not even sure what kind of rocks I'm looking for." He continues to walk around the dark cave looking for whatever kind of rocks can be used for candy. Until he bumps into something big, very big. Thunderbolt moves the torch around the object to figured out what exactly he bumped into. Suddenly the large object begins to shift and move around. Startled Thunderbolt backs up, his eyes widen as he recognizes what it is. The large object turns to face Thunderbolt.
"It's a dragon!" exclaims Thunderbolt.
The dragon lets out a large yawn, but doesn't notice Thunderbolt yet, since he was still half asleep.
Thunderbolt runs, and hides behind a large boulder to keep himself from being seen.
The dragon begins to stretch trying to wake himself up.
Thunderbolt begins to think to himself, "How on earth am I gonna get out of here now?"
The dragon starts moving around the cave and turns his back towards Thunderbolt.
"Now's my chance" whispers Thunderbolt. He slowly begins to tip toe out from behind the boulder and tries to make his way out of the cave. All is going well until Thunderbolt suddenly stubs his toe against a rock, "OUCH!" he screams, "STINKIN ROCKS!!!" his scream echo's throughout the cave. Thunderbolt stands in shock from the giant mistake he has just made. He starts to feel large breaths of air pushing up against his back. Thunderbolt slowly turns around and comes face to face with the giant dragon staring right at him only inches away from his face, "Hi there..." says Thunderbolt with the dragon still breathing on his face, "This... is... a nice place you got here... yeah it's so big... and um... dark..." Thunderbolt says as he gulps with fear, "And your face really big... and handsome..."
The dragon growls showing his dangerously sharp teeth.
"Oh... no..."
Pinkie Pie sits outside the cave laying on a lounge chair, wearing sunglasses, and reading a magazine waiting for Thunderbolt to return. Suddenly a large burst of flames emerges from the cave along with a large scream of pain, "AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Just then a burnt to the crisp Thunderbolt comes waddling out of the cave and falls face down on the ground.
Pinkie Pie lowers the magazine and removes her glasses with her mane, "Did you get the rocks!?!"
"No..." Thunderbolt mumbles from beneath the ground.
Pinkie Pie hops off her lounge chair, "That's ok I've got some extras back at my place!" she says as she begins walking down the mountain.
Thunderbolt shoots straight up from the ground with a very irritated look on his face, and lets out a scream of anger and frustration, "RRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!" his screams echo throughout Equestria, though space, and throughout the universe.
The Doctor looks up from his console, "Derpy did you hear that?"
Derpy shakes her head, "mm...mm nope"
"Huh? Strange..." The Doctor says, as he goes back to working on his console.
The two ponies walk down from the mountain with Thunderbolt still feeling slightly irritated.
"So what's next on the list?" Thunderbolt asks.
Pinkie Pie pulls out her list, "Well I already took care of some other things on the list while you were in the cave."
"What!?!" exclaims Thunderbolt, "But I was only in there for like... 5 minutes!?!
"Yeah I know!" says Pinkie Pie with a smile, "And by the way you were actually in the cave for 5 and a half minutes."
"Oh whatever!" Thunderbolt shouts in frustration.
"Ok, so all that we need to get now is... flowers!" shouts Pinkie Pie.
"Flowers???" Thunderbolt asks, "why flowers?"
Pinkie Pie gets up in Thunderbolt's face, "Never question the party pony!"
Thunderbolt feels really awkward, "Ok... sorry..."
Pinkie Pie backs away from Thunderbolt slowly.
"Ok... then... it shouldn't be too hard to find flowers in Ponyville. I mean this place is crawling with them, literally." Suddenly Thunderbolt sees a small flower pass by him running on two legs, "Wha- huh? Pinkie did you see that?"
Pinkie pie looks up from her list, "See what?"
Thunderbolt looks in the direction that the flower ran, "Man that was... random..."
"Oh and the flowers we're looking for are not just any old flowers they're special" says Pinkie Pie.
Thunderbolt continues looking in the direction that the flower ran, "You don't say..." he looks back up at Pinkie Pie, "So where do we find them?"
"Over here!" Pinkie Pie says as she turns Thunderbolt in the direction of the place where the flowers are located.
Thunderbolt is suddenly overcome with even more dread and fear, than when he saw the mountain, "The EverFree Forest!?!"
"That's right!" exclaims Pinkie Pie, "Only the best flowers are found in there!"
Thunderbolt gulps and lets out a whimper.
"Oh come on Boltie don't be such a wimp!" says Pinkie Pie trying to boost Thunderbolt's confidence.
"What did you just call me!?!" Thunderbolt asks in irritation.
Pinkie Pie pushes Thunderbolt closer to the EverFree Forest, "Don't worry about it, just get in there and find those flowers!"
"But why me?" Thunderbolt asks, "Why can't you do it?"
Pinkie Pie continues pushing, "Oh come on Thunderbolt, where's your sense of adventure!?!"
"Not here at the moment, I'll tell you that much!" Thunderbolt shouts in fear, "I'm not going in there Pinkie Pie! And that's final!
Thunderbolt stands in the middle of the EverFree Forest with a dopey expression on his face, having no idea of where he is. He begins to look around for the certain flowers Pinkie Pie was talking about. As Thunderbolt makes his way through the forest looking for the flowers, he suddenly hears the sound of rustling coming from some nearby bushes. Thunderbolt starts panicking and frantically searches for a hiding place. He gives up, shrugs, and just stands there like a statue. The bushes continue rustling until a small frog comes hopping out from the bush. Thunderbolt takes a sigh of relief and bends down near the frog, "You scared me little fella." he turns his back and continues talking, "I don't know why I was so scared, it was just a frog..." As Thunderbolt continues talking, the frog slowly grows in size behind him.
"I expected to run into a giant monster or something, but even in another world these animals are still God's creation." Thunderbolt hears a sudden growl coming from behind him. He slowly turns around and sees a giant frog with spikes coming out of its spine, razor sharp claws, yellow beating eyes, and teeth larger than pencils. The large frog lets out a loud growl, startling Thunderbolt, and causing him to run deeper into the forest screaming like a little filly. Once the frog sees that Thunderbolt is far out of sight, the giant frog instantly transforms back into a little frog, lets out a ribbit, then hops off into the forest.
Thunderbolt continues running looking over his shoulder every few seconds just to make sure the frog isn't following him. He suddenly runs right into a tree and falls to the ground with a thud, "Ouch..." Thunderbolt says as he rubs his head from the pain. He looks up to see the silhouette of a pony in front of him. Thunderbolt covers his face in fear, "Please don't hurt me..." he begs, "If you want to eat me make sure you serve me up with some ketchup, but no mustard I hate mustard!"
The pony in front of Thunderbolt moves close enough for him to see who it is.
Thunderbolt lifts his hooves from his face and sees the pony is none other then, "Zecora!" Thunderbolt shouts.
Zecora looks at the strange pony with an awkward expression on her face, "And who might you me, my little pony?"
Thunderbolt stands to his hooves, and replies, "I'm Thunderbolt, I don't believe we've met."
"No we have not" exclaims Zecora, "Yet we have met right on the spot."
"Indeed we have Zecora" says Thunderbolt.
"The question I must ask, is why are you here? What is your task?"
"Oh um.... a friend of mine asked me to come in here to find some special flowers..."
"Perhaps if you describe the flowers, I can help you find it within a few hours."
"HOURS!?!" shouts Thunderbolt, "I don't think I have that kind of time..."
"Well then I'm quite sorry my young friend, I hope you find the flowers in the end" says Zecora as she walks back in the direction of her hut.
Thunderbolt is completely confused, "Wait! What does that even mean!?! So you're not gonna help me!?! He stomps his hoof against the ground in frustration, "Barnacles!!!" he shouts. Thunderbolt's yell echo's throughout the EverFree forest and catches the attention of some not so friendly animals. Thunderbolt starts throwing rocks at some nearby trees in anger and starts to mimic Pinkie Pie, "Oh Thunderbolt, I need you to go get me some flowers from a dangerous forest you may possibly be eaten alive in!" He continues to throw more rocks at nearby trees until he is interrupted by the sound of growling. Thunderbolt looks in the direction of the growling and sees at least 5 Timberwolves coming out from behind some of the trees he threw rocks at earlier. The Timberwolves begin to move closer to Thunderbolt. Filled with fear Thunderbolt builds up the courage, to grab a rock from the ground and throws it with all the force he can at the TimberWolf in epic slow motion. The rock doesn't even make it past 3 inches before it hits the ground.
"Man! I really got to work on my throwing..." says Thunderbolt.
The five Timberwolves lunge at Thunderbolt and he takes off running into the forest not having a single clue of where he is going.
(insert Yakety Sax music

)
Yakety Sax music begins playing in the background as the Timberwolves chase Thunderbolt, back and forth through the EverFree forest, until Thunderbolt comes flying out of the forest landing face first in the dirt.
Pinkie Pie sees Thunderbolt on the ground and asks, "Did you get the flowers?"
"No... I didn't...." Thunderbolt mumbles from underneath the dirt.
"That's ok, I managed to find some elsewhere while you were in the Everfree Forest! Isn't that funny!" Pinkie Pie laughs to herself
Thunderbolt slowly lifts his head from the ground and spits out some dirt from his mouth.
"I can't believe I found some of the flowers elsewhere! I thought for sure they could only be found in the EverFree Forest, but then I thought hey! What if they had some somewhere else!
Thunderbolt's face becomes as red as a tomato and steam suddenly emits from his ears.
"I thought it was funny, did you think it wa--"
"NO I did not find it funny!" interrupts Thunderbolt as he gets up from the ground dusting himself off, "What is the matter with you!?! Is this some kind of game to you!?!"
"I thought you were having fun?" Pinkie Pie says with a soft spoken voice.
"DOES IT LOOK LIKE I'M HAVING FUN!?!?!" Thunderbolt shouts in pure anger, "I HAVE BEEN BENDING OVER BACKWARDS FOR YOU PINKIE PIE! I HAVE BEEN RISKING MY LIFE FOR DUMB THINGS THAT AREN'T EVEN IMPORTANT! I'M NOT DOING IT ANYMORE!!!" Thunderbolt turns his back to Pinkie Pie in anger and storms off.
Pinkie Pie lowers her ears in sadness, "Oh....."
Pinkie Pie searches around Ponyville for Thunderbolt, but he is nowhere to be found. She tries checking in Twilight's Library, but doesn't find him there either. Pinkie Pie is about to give up on her search until she sees a black pony sitting on the side of the hill outside of Ponyville. She runs to the hill to find Thunderbolt staring at the horizon, watching the sun go down. Pinkie Pie lowers her head and sits beside Thunderbolt.
She looks at him and sees that he has his eyes closed, "Thunderbolt?" Pinkie Pie asks.
Thunderbolt slowly opens his eyes and responds, "Oh, hey Pinkie Pie..."
Pinkie Pie dangles her head, "I wanted to ask you something..."
"What's that?" asks Thunderbolt.
"I wanted to know if you wouldn't mind doing one last thing for me..."
Thunderbolt shakes his head back and forth in frustration, "Pinkie Pie I told you I woul--"
"Please Thunderbolt" Pinkie Pie begs, "I promise it's better then the last things I had you do and it's the last thing on the list."
Thunderbolt lowers his head and takes a deep breath, then looks back at Pinkie Pie, "Ok, one last time and then I'm done, ok?"
Pinkie Pie nods with excitement.
"Ok, so where do we need to go?" Thunderbolt asks.
Pinkie Pie takes out a blindfold, "First you need to put this on!"
Thunderbolt gives Pinkie Pie an 'are you kidding me' look.
"Trust me on this one Thunderbolt" says Pinkie Pie giving him a large smile.
"Oh..... ok!" replies Thunderbolt putting the blindfold on, "just promise me this time you will warn me if I'm about to step on or into something ok?"
"Sure thing Thunderbolt!" says Pinkie Pie.
A few minutes pass on and Pinkie Pie leads Thunderbolt inside Applejack's barn.
"Can I take off the blindfold now Pinkie pie?" asks Thunderbolt.
There is no answer from Pinkie Pie.
"Oh you have got to be kidding me!" Thunderbolt starts ripping off the blindfold, "Pinkie Pie! When I'm finished taking off this blindfold..." he takes the blindfold off his face, "I'm gonna--"
"SURPRISE!" everypony in the room shouts.
Thunderbolt looks around and sees all the mane six wearing party hats and a cake in the center of the room with streamers aligning the whole room.
"What... what is all this?" Thunderbolt asks.
"It's a Welcome to Ponyville Party!" Pinkie says as she comes bouncing into the room on a balloon.
"For you sugarcube" says Applejack.
"For... me?" Thunderbolt asks still in shock.
"Yes" Twilight replies, "Pinkie Pie had us set it up while you were out with her all day."
Thunderbolt looks at Pinkie Pie, "So that's why you made me go find this random stuff for you! You were trying to keep me busy while you were all planning this party."
"That's right!" says Rainbow Dash, "And you were gullible enough to fall for it!"
"But what about the other pony that came to Ponyville?" Thunderbolt asks.
"Oh that was a lie" Pinkie Pie says with a smile, "But I had to mislead you so you wouldn't suspect anything. Although I think the people reading this fanfic probably already figured that out the moment I brought it up!"
"Huh?"
"Oh nevermind" Pinkie Pie says with a mischievous look on her face.
"Ok...." Thunderbolt says feeling very confused.
"Well what are we standing around here for!?! Lets Party!!!" shouts Pinkie Pie.
Everypony parties hard for a good 3 hours before they cut the cake and play some party games together. Thunderbolt enjoys every single moment at the party. While the other ponies are still partying away, Thunderbolt walks up to Pinkie Pie and says, "Hey Pinkie Pie..."
Pinkie Pie turns and sees Thunderbolt standing behind her, "Oh hey Thunderbolt!"
"Listen, Pinkie, I wanted to say I'm sorry for yelling at you. I should have never gotten upset and lost my temper. Can you ever forgive me?"
"Of course I forgive you Thunderbolt" Pinkie Pie says with a smile "I'm sorry for keeping the whole party a secret from you, and for giving you such a hard day today."
"That's ok Pinkie Pie I forgive you."
Pinkie Pie opens her arms for a hug, "Friends?"
"Friends" Thunderbolt says as he comes in and hugs Pinkie Pie.
Thunderbolt lets go and a question pops into his mind, "Hey Pinkie Pie?"
"Yes Thunderbolt?"
"I wanted to know, what was really the things you needed for this party?"
Pinkie Pie pulls out her list, "The only real thing I needed for the party... was YOU!"
Thunderbolt snickers then bursts out laughing with Pinkie Pie cracking up with him.
The 7 ponies enjoy the whole night partying under Luna's precious night.
The End
