//-------------------------------------------------------// Playing In the Clouds -by Elysion_Doodles- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Preparations //-------------------------------------------------------// Preparations Tomorrow was Nightmare Night, the perfect night for I, Rainbow Dash, the best pranker, to do my thing!  I was busy contemplaiting on what I would dress up for the special night. "Rarity, should I be a Shadowbolt again?" I questioned to the white unicorn. "Hm? Oh, oh no darling. You must, must must be something you've never been before!" "So I'll be anything but a Wonderbolt or Shadowbolt?" I muttered. "Uh, well, have you been... Uh," Rarity pondered. "Daring Do?" Pinkie Pie, who had been busy trying to straiten her hair, (for no appearent reason) spoke up. "That would be too easy for Dashie. I mean, shes a recolored Dashie, that wears clothes. Right readers?!" Pinkie said, pointing her hoof at the ceiling. "Uh Pinkie darling..." Rarity began, i just shushed her. "Don't question her. Now," Rainbow remembered what they were talking about. "what should I be?" Pinkie once again spoke up, "Hey, Dashie, why don't you make up your own version of a Wonderbolt/Shadowbolt? Like how your always dreaming about starting your own team!" "What? How did you know about that?!" I said, embarrassed. "Uh, just a hunch!" Pinkie said smiling. "Actually, darling, thats not a bad idea. Do you think you could sketch up a design? Or you want to hover over me, while I do it?" Rarity asked. "I can draw it." I said, which surprised Rarity so much, that her mouth fell open. "What? I would always doodle in class since I hated it. I learned quite a bit." I chuckled. "Uh, um, glad that you can do it!" Rarity said, obviously at a loss of words. When I got home I started immediately , since on the way home I was thinking about it the whole time. I spent maybe 20 minutes trying to sketch it all out. Then I labeled the colors on it, and it looked just like I wanted it to look like: I could'nt wait to do this. Sure, I will probably be doing the same pranks, but with a custom outfit. When I got into bed, I started to think about tomorrow night. I needed to scare people on Nightmare night right? I started thinking about the prank I did last year, and how I was using a lightning cloud. It was a dark grey cloud. Maybe I could do something that implements rainbows... I could add some rainbow to the punch, and bobbing for apples. This reminded me of when Pinkie tried to drink a rainbow. I gasped. I could do something that mixes the lightning trick and use liquid rainbow. I had the perfect plan. I would still zap them with the lightning, but I would also pour the liquid rainbow on them. This sounds mean? Nah. Rainbow evaporates fast when its not surrounded by clouds. It also helps conduct electricity, so even though lightning wont hit them, they might feel like they just got shocked wherever the rainbow is. This sounded like an awesome prank since, 1) it doesn't hurt anypony 2) their costume wont stay wet long, and 3) its going to scare everypony. //-------------------------------------------------------// Costumes //-------------------------------------------------------// Costumes Soon, it was the big night.My costume was finished. Everypony elses too. "Wow. Dint know ya knew how ta come up with somein' like that." Applejack said as Rainbow pulled her costume off a ponyquin. "Me too, I really was surprised when you brought it to be darling," Rarity turned to me. "Wait, what are ya?" Aj queered. "Isn't it obvious? I'm a rainbow version of a wonder bolt. A Rainbolt." "Sure." "Hey, sis, can you zip up my costume?" Sweetie Belle came into the room. "Oh su-" Rarity began, but was interrupted by her sister. "Oh Celestia! You guys look amazing! Lemme guess- Pinkie, your Frankenpony, and Twilight, your the Mad Scientist?" "Yes, but I'm not mad I-" "I wanted to be the mad  scientist. But she wouldn't let me! She said I needed to know science! And I do!" Pinkie Pie interrupted Twilight. "But you don't!" The alicorn glared at Pinkie. " And the science of parties doesn't count!" "What about the science of breaking the 4th wall?" "You can't break the 4th wall!!!" "Tell that to the readers." Pinkie finished the argument. "So, Applejack, your.. Uh..." Sweetie Belle perplexed. "Shes Mistress Marevelous!" Spike answered. "And I'm Humdrum!" "Right! And, uh Spike, I knew that. Did you forget that I changed my costume last minute to Radience?" "Oh yea! And Scootaloo is Zapp, and Applebloom is Filly Second!" Spike acknowledged. "Sis, your a butterfly." I snickered at this, You would think Fluttershy would be the butterfly. "And Rainbow Dash, your a Rainbolt." "I sure am. Your sister tell you?" The white filly nodded. "This is going to be a great Nightmare Night!" I told everypony.
