Fluttercourage
A page was shown at the beginning of a book, showing Draco with Spike and Twilight, showing what built up to them living in Ponyville in book form. The trio were seen talking to each of their new friends in respective order from when they met whom. Draco was seen confronting Nightmare moon with his siblings behind him. Twilight was seen showing everyone about the Elements of Harmony. The group was seen walking through the Everfree forest in hopes of finding the Elements of Harmony. The group’s struggles were all shown as the pages turned, one event at a time. The tasks of the Elements of Harmony were shown as well in exact order of when they were made. Draco and the others were seen confronting Nightmare moon and successfully did so, ending with Draco hugging Queen Luna. Draco and the others were seen with Queen Celestia as she just allowed the main trio to move to Ponyville. The last page showed Draco becoming surprised by what he found in the ruby in the alley. Just then a red flash covered up the screen and to changed to another motion.
The magic tree house anime movie song Message plays during the credits as Twilight’s voice is heard singing No other bond.
Events from the pilot were shown from the first few lines of Twilight’s song. “I may have given up on friendship, long ago.” But my brothers helped me regain, it so. In spite of how stupid they, can be. I still love them with all my heart. They helped me see the light, at the end. It was a tunnel that made an, awful trend. But these dragons, one cocky, and one timid. Kept their friendship amazing from the start.” Other events to occur in season one were then shown for the rest of the song. “True neither of them are perfect, but I honestly will never care. Us and our friends will remain, until the, end of time. Even when these brothers fight, there love lasts with all their might, and they showed me once again, the truth that i lost back then. The best of friends they will sure be, forever in harmony, No other bond i’ve seen before, protecting and loving one another to the core.”
Draco and his friends were shown in a picture at the end of the song.
Fluttershy's cottage was shown and then she opened the door, walking out with a basket of vegetables. She walked up to Angel, who was seen crawling in a tree's hole. She then pulled Angel out and brought him over to the veggies she brought, pulling out a carrot and giving it to him, and then speaking calmly and caringly. "Here's your lunch Angel."
Angel looked at the carrot and gagged, kicking it off. Fluttershy picked the carrot back up and gave it back to him. "Don't be like that. We both know you like these." Angel nodded his head no while crossing his arms. "Three bites." Angel turned away from Fluttershy. "Two bites." Angel sat down. "One bite."
Angel ignored Fluttershy until he saw smoke coming from some sort of cloud, pointing to it in fear when turning to Fluttershy. Fluttershy saw the smoke and picked Angel up, running into the cottage with him. She closed the door and locked it, turning to Angel afterwards and spoke firmly to him. "Angel, I don't want you leaving the house while I'm gone. Do you understand?" Angel nodded his head yes and Fluttershy went out the door with a smile. She then looked back in with a blank face. "Seriously though dude. You're eating that carrot." Fluttershy left and Angel stomped his foot in anger.
Fluttershy arrived in town and went into the center of the town, knowing that Ponyville would hear her best from there. She stood where she could and tried to get everyone's attention, despite speaking softly. "Everyone? May I have your attention please?" Rainbow dash was seen listening to music on a cloud when she looked down and saw Fluttershy. "Anyone?"
Rainbow dash took her headphones out and put her phone away, just before she flew down to help her friend. "Yo dudes! My friend here's got something to say!"
Everyone looked at Rainbow dash and Fluttershy and the former let the latter speak up. "Now that you're all looking in my direction, I've come to inform you that smoke is coming towards Ponyville. But I advise you all to not, panic, as it could be something other than a dragon." Everyone looked at the smoke when Fluttershy pointed to it and became cautious, but kept their cool like she told them to.
"Of course, if it IS a dragon, then I'll kick it's butt before it can even strike;" Rainbow dash said proudly, making the residents of Ponyville a bit skeptical. "Well two of our friends are dragons, so yeah."
The crowd started to get some hope as Fluttershy hood bumped Rainbow dash. "Thanks Rainbow." Rainbow dash nodded and flew up with Fluttershy. "Now let's go find Twilight. If anyone can help, it's her."
"No doubt about it!" Rainbow dash flew off at high speeds and Fluttershy chased after her, rolling her eyes while smiling at her nature.
Rainbow dash and Fluttershy arrived at the Golden Oak library and Rainbow dash knocked on the door. Twilight answered and pulled up her phone. "Already called the others. Should be here soon."
Rainbow dash and Fluttershy looked at each other with smiles, glad that Twilight was one step ahead. They then looked back at Twilight as Rainbow spoke up. "So what're we gonna do about the smoke thing?"
"Well if it's a dragon, then I think we should head up there ourselves and stop it;" Twilight explained, making Fluttershy's heart sink and she hid behind Rainbow dash.
Rainbow looked at Fluttershy, somewhat embarrassed by her fearing nature. "You sure you wanna be back there Flutters?"
Fluttershy peaked from behind Rainbow dash, still having fear in her eyes. "Twilight, pleeeeease don't leave me alone in that cave. I don't know what I'd do without someone there to protect me. I've never seen a grown-"
"I know Fluttershy, and don't worry;" Twilight said with an assuring tone. "I'll make sure someone's with you at all times. Rainbow dash told me about this one time when you wet yourself during a sleepover." Fluttershy looked at Rainbow dash with a blank face, and Rainbow dash shrugged with a giggle.
Draco and the others were seen outside the Golden Oak library with Twilight speaking proudly in front of them. "Now as you all know, there's smoke coming from that cave up there, and we're going to check out what it is, hoping it's not a dragon. Any questions?"
Draco raised his claw and Twilight looked at him, letting him ask what he wanted. "If it IS a dragon, can I fight it?"
"No." Draco rolled his eyes in annoyance at Twilight's declining, allowing her to continue anyway. "Alright then. Let's get ready."
Draco and the others went into their own poses with Draco first going into a cocky smile and peace sign. Spike went into a pose where he smiled and waved kindly with his eyes closed. Twilight was shown holding a book as she closed it and turned to the audience with bravery. Rainbow dash flew threw the sky and landed boldly, getting a pose of slight overconfidence. Rarity walked down a red carpet and went into a glamorous pose while texting. Pinkie pie flew out of her cannon when it launched, holding up a cupcake as she stood up. Applejack tilted her hat up and looked at the audience without moving her head. Fluttershy creeped out from a tree and gave a shy smile, leading to draco and the others standing together, with Draco in the middle.
Draco and the others were seen walking up a mountain trail to the cave where the smoke was coming from. Rarity was seen texting as Rainbow dash was flying above her speaking with good energy. "So it figures that most tomboys like doing it, so it'd make sense for ME to do it." Rarity nodded, hardly listening to Rainbow. "Now I'll need a lot of beds to make this work."
Draco and the others walked past a cavern in the mountain, passing by just before Ryu appeared. Ryu spawned a circle chip and flicked it up, sending it to the top of a rock slide, and then Draco was seen talking to Spike. "Yeah. Apparently it's a kind of fire."
"That's...actually pretty cool;" Spike said in an impressed way, and then Draco saw something coming towards them.
"Why does it look like the mountain's coming to us?"
Twilight looked up upon Draco's words, becoming shocked by what she saw. "Rock slide!"
Draco and the others ran up the hill while avoiding all of the rocks. Draco front flipped onto a rock and jumped onto the top of one, jumping from rock to rock afterwards. Spike was seen catching up to Twilight, who zapped the first rock that came to them. Rainbow dash was dodging a bunch of rocks while spotting Twilight at the bottom, diving down and picking her up and barely able to keep flight. Rarity took a picture of the rocks as she was dodging them, getting a great photo at that. Applejack kicked and punched each and every one of the rocks that came flying towards her, with Draco and the others arriving at the top past it. Everyone aside from Draco, Rainbow dash, and Fluttershy was seen panting heavily.
Draco, Rainbow dash, and Fluttershy went down to the others, with Draco landing perfectly and going into a goofy pose. "And the winner of awesomeness is...King Draco!" Draco put his fist up upon his last words, making his friends roll their eyes. "Alright then dudes, let's get a move on."
Just then, smoke was seen shooting out of the cave, making Fluttershy hide behind Rainbow dash again. Draco walked up to Fluttershy with a blank face, knocking on her head like a door. "Yo flutterdoor, get off your straight friend's butt."
Fluttershy walked past Draco and then turned to him. "In case you haven't noticed yet Draco, I'm terrified of dragons."
"That's pretty hard to believe;" Spike said, finding it rather strange as he walked up to them and stood next to Draco. "You were really excited when you met us."
Fluttershy spoke in a scared tone as the mountain got farther away from the screen in between commas. "Right. But you're not, totally scary, fire breathing, pony eating, savage monsters, who want all living creatures aside from them to die."
Draco walked over to Fluttershy and patted her on the back, pulling up a bottle. "You need the meds I got them."
Draco and the others were seen walking through the cave, with Fluttershy shaking with fear. Rainbow dash looked at Fluttershy and rolled her eyes, annoyed at how cowardly her friend is acting. "Draco was right. You DO need the meds."
"Maybe I do, but I can't help it;" Fluttershy said a bit louder than normal. "You know me Rainbow dash. I'm not used to stuff like this."
"So just do what I do, and imagine the danger around us being non-existent;" Rainbow dash told Fluttershy, showing that she was willing to ease her mood. "Now breathe in." Fluttershy breathed in through her nose. "And out." Fluttershy breathed out through her mouth. "Now repeat, and slowly." Fluttershy did as Rainbow dash told her to do, going as slow as she could. She then hugged Rainbow dash, who smiled softly.
Draco saw some sort of prophecy with Ryu on it, intriguing him as he went to look at it. "More information on Ryu. I could use this." Rarity noticed that Draco wasn't walking and walked over to him, looking at the prophecy he was looking at. "This is that Ryu dude that Celestia banished a long time ago. If this prophecy means anything, it's his origin. Well, what we don't know anyway."
"Sounds like something I'd read;" Rarity said as they got to a part about an necromancer battling Ryu.
"Looks like he's been through a lot;" Draco said with a surprised look. "necromancers are said to be the strongest beings in Equestria and beyond." Rarity took interest in this information as she then saw that the group was gone, walking back while levitating Draco onto her back. "You know what an necromancer is, right?" Rarity nodded her head no with a smile. "Well let me tell you then. A necromancer can be any creature, but it's most commonly made from-"
Draco and the others arrived at the cave where the dragon was, with Fluttershy still being anxious. Draco looked into the cave and became excited, running inside without warning.
"Draco, wait;" Twilight whispered loudly, fearing for her brother.
Draco snuck around and looked for the dragon, hoping to find something else cool in the process. He kept searching around until he saw a dragon's snout, finding it to match a grown dragon's. As the others arrived, he then climbed onto the dragon's mouth and up to his ear. He breathed into the dragon's ear and the dragon twitched a bit, waking up and seeing the others, giving a blank face to all of them. "What do you want?"
"See, that's the problem, cause we don't know if you'll cooperate;" Rainbow dash said, being rather blunt about it. "Your snout smoke is surrounding Ponyville, and we need you to stop before you end up taking the whole town over with it."
The dragon yawned being unable to cooperate with the request. "Well...you'd be right." The dragon went back to sleep and Draco rolled his eyes, walking over to the dragon's eye. Spike tried to signal Draco not to do what he was thinking about doing, but Draco ignored him, opening the eye lid and punching the dragon's eye. The dragon woke up and screamed in pain as Draco fell off of his mouth. "Ow!"
Draco landed perfectly as Rainbow dash punched him in the arm. "Are you an idiot, or just a brat!?"
"Well he wasn't gonna move, so I had to punch that face!" Draco shouted back, and then the dragon glared at him with a menacing look.
The dragon glared into Draco's eyes, not even bothered by the fact that it didn't make an impact on him. "You little brat!" The dragon picked up Draco and breathed hard, making Draco whiff away his breath. "Act smug all you want, but in the end you'll still die." Draco punched the dragon in the snout and then kicked it, not reacting a bit as he did so. He then breathed fire on the dragon, which made him flinch. "Alright, how about I eat you then?"
Draco rolled his eyes and smirked. "Like that'll happen. (Turns to Twilight) Twilight, floor him."
Twilight charged up a magic beam, aiming it at the dragon. "With pleasure!" Twilight blasted the dragon, making Ryu fly out of him. Ryu glared at the others, making Twilight flinch. "You!"
Ryu dove down to the others and hid his crystal black wings, chuckling devilishly as he did so. "We meet Twilight. It's a pleasure." Draco glared at Ryu and charged at him, letting Ryu grab his fist as he aimed a punch at him. Ryu crushed Draco's fist, making him cry out in pain and enraging Spike and Twilight. "Looks like someone's still cocky." Ryu blew onto his dark red claws upon his black skin, throwing Draco at a wall afterwards.
"Alright dirt face that isn't Applejack!" Rainbow dash shouted upon getting into Ryu's face. "If you don't explain what you're planning then I'll kick your butt to the end of the multiverse."
Ryu gave out a devilish laugh as he grabbed Rainbow dash's chest, glaring into her eyes with his red pupils. Ryu's green eyes were shown to be making a weird signal, bringing Rainbow dash to the floor. "And the coma has begun." Fluttershy runs over to Rainbow dash in fear, grabbing her and lifting her head. Fluttershy looked at Ryu with an enraged look, just before he punched her back. Applejack caught Fluttershy and glared at Ryu, who gave a menacing look. "Now then. Why don't you lackluster fighters get lost then."
Draco got up and glared at Ryu. "I don't care what Celestia thought of you when she sealed you away. You're getting floored."
Ryu walked over to Draco and stunned him with his glare, pinning him against the wall afterwards. "Oh young, innocent, Draco. If only you knew what I was capable of in my adult form. Then you would've thought twice about facing me the first time, and this time."
Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie pie became confused, and Pinkie pie got into Ryu's face when turning him to her. "And what the heck are you talking about? Draco may be a jerk sometimes, but he'd never hurt the innocent or whatever you just said."
Ryu pushed Pinkie pie aside and began speaking. "It's rather simple really. Ryu wanted to learn more about his mother, so Spike helped him get through the Canterlot library, along with Rainbow dash and Applejack." Rarity looked at Applejack with confusion, and Applejack bowed her head in guilt. Fluttershy looked at Rainbow dash, wondering what Ryu could be leading to. "So when they started searching the place, yes, they did find something on Spike and Draco's mother, but what they DIDN'T know is that they revealed a pathway to me."
Draco clenched his fist and punched Ryu, shocked when he barely moved from it and smiled at it. Ryu turned to Draco and punched his head into the wall, turning to the others. "And then being the curious little idiot that he was, Draco went and grabbed the orb that sealed me, releasing me from my tomb."
Fluttershy tried to not believe Ryu, as did Rarity and Pinkie pie. Ryu then turned to Draco, who tried to hide his regret and spat in Ryu's face. "Shut up dude! So what if that happened!? It's not like I wanted to save you!"
Ryu set Draco down and elbowed Pinkie pie, making her let go and walked off. "It's up to you whether or not you forgive Draco. No one will blame you for thinking that." Ryu then turned to Draco and the others, pointing into the deeper parts of the cave. "And your smoke is down there. The dragon will see you." Ryu began to teleport away and flipped off Draco and the others just before he did.
Spike and the others walked over to Draco as Spike helped him up, with Rarity speaking up first. "You guys, actually revived evil?"
"Not by intention;" Spike said in a regretful tone. "Like he said though, we didn't even know about him."
"This sure is a lot to take in;" Pinkie pie said, showing a sign of confusion. "Still, I've known you guys long enough to know Ryu's a jerk face compared to everyone else." Pinkie pie gave a smile, which made Spike and Draco smile too.
Fluttershy looked into the cave, not wanting to let anyone down when going in. "Let's get going." Fluttershy turned to Draco with a smirk. "And no stupid moves this time." Draco nodded and walked off with the others, getting ready to face the real dragon.
Draco and the others walked down the hallway, with Fluttershy still being scared. Draco noticed Fluttershy shaking and walked over to her, hoping she could lighten up soon. "You okay Fluttershy?"
"Not doing so well Draco;" Fluttershy said, still shivering. "Seeing that dragon in my thoughts alone make me wanna freeze."
Draco hid his laughter from Fluttershy's fears, putting his claw on her shoulder. "I'll admit, I was scared at times too when I was a little kid. But after Spike got over his jealousy of me, he was always there for me." Fluttershy looked at Draco with warmth, glad to see him opening up about himself. "I normally don't like to open up about this, but I thought you'd like to hear it. To help you ease your fear."
Fluttershy took a liking to how considerate Draco was being, smiling at how nice he was at this moment. "This is a nice side of you Draco. Why don't you act this way all the time? Not that I'd change you."
"Obviously. I just prefer acting the way I do;" Draco said, accepting his cocky self. "One thing I used to do when I had nightmares whenever Spike wasn't around is to just imagine them being something happy. Until the real danger came around, it always helped me see that the weak stuff was always joy compared to it."
Fluttershy took interest in Draco's methods and used it when looking around the cave. She saw that the cave wasn't all that bad compared to Ryu, or anything else. Fluttershy turned to Draco with a smile and hugged her with his wing. "Thanks Draco."
Draco smiled upon Fluttershy's touch, blushing softly. "Yeah yeah, don't make it overdone."
Draco and the others arrived at the cave and saw the dragon inside, as it then breathed fire at them. They jumped out of the way just in time, with Pinkie pie winking to Twilight and walking up to the cave. She went into a dragon costume as she walked in, seeming to be out of nowhere, speaking in a deep voice as she talked. "Hello mister dragon. My name is Dragon dude, and I am your new roommate."
The dragon nodded, lowering his head to Pinkie pie. "Remind me why, exactly I should believe any of that?"
"Because I'm roommate god too."
The dragon rolled his eyes and flicked Pinkie pie off, making her crash into the wall outside. Applejack ran in with a cowgirl rope, only to be breathed back by air. "God darn it, I could've gotten that son of a gun."
"Well your plan was pretty stupid;" Rarity said bluntly, and Applejack eventually nodded in agreement with her. "I've got this one." Rarity spawned a bunch of makeover supplies and walked into the cave with them, facing the dragon as she did so. "Excuse me, mister dragon sir? I'm here to inform you that you've one the dragon of the year award! Feel free to get the makeover for your own picture at Canterlot."
The dragon breathed fire on Rarity, making her walk out of the cave and collapse in pain. Rainbow dash got mad upon seeing this, finding breathing fire on her friends one way to cross the line. "That's it. Dragon's getting his butt kicked!"
Rainbow dash flew into the cave as Draco shouted to her. "Whomp him hard Rainbow!"
Rainbow dash flew up to the dragon and back flip kicked him in the jaw, glaring at him with a serious tone. "Alright dude! I tried to be reasonable when Draco punched your eye and call him out on it, but burning my friends is low in my book. You'd better apologize to Rarity, before I pound you to the second dimension!"
The dragon chuckles and then roars sending Rainbow dash into a wall, stepping on her tail and getting ready to burn. "You're brave, I'll give you that. But you're also done for."
Fluttershy saw her friend in pain and saw a fire in her chest burn. Feeling her heart gain a new path of courage, seeing that she could stand up for herself without any hesitation, she dashed up to the dragon with a giant shout. "Let her go!" The dragon became a bit startled upon Fluttershy's shout, unable to stop her from continuing. "Now I know that Draco and Rainbow dash both hurt you, and I'm sorry for that. (Draco rolls his eyes) But you seem to be bringing it on yourself with all this tyranny you're doing!"
The dragon became confused until Fluttershy finished her words. "Now I'm not one to speak here, but Rainbow has a point. You burning Rarity for trying to help her town, from the smoke that YOU'RE making, is cruel, and harsh! If they have a difference." Fluttershy stood on the dragon's mouth and glared into his eyes. "Speak, now."
The dragon became stunned upon Fluttershy's glare, surprised to see her explode out of nowhere. He then gave a humble smile, glad to see Fluttershy stand up for another. "That's something I did not expect." Fluttershy became confused until the dragon pointed to the roof. "There's another room inside the roof. You can stop the smoke from there. Ryu would've planned something more vicious, but he wanted to test you before he did so."
Draco and the others walked up to the dragon, with Fluttershy flying down to them. Draco looked at the roof, surprised to see Ryu taking small action. "From what Twilight told me, he seems a lot more brutal than that. If he IS testing us then we should be prepared for the finale."
"Yeah, no kidding;" Spike said with a worried tone. "And now we know why the Canterlot library was so dangerous.
The dragon used his tail to open up a hole in the roof, revealing a ladder of which went down to them. He nodded to Draco and the others as they walked over to the ladder, with Fluttershy turning to the dragon with a wink. Draco turned as well and gave a thumbs up. "Thanks dude." The dragon nodded as they all flew up, with Fluttershy looking at the dragon with a smile. Draco and the others arrived at the roof room, looking around for whatever Ryu could've planted for them.
"Let's see here. If I were a smoke projector, where would I be?" Applejack asked, looking around in places that she figured someone like Ryu would be smart enough to hide the machine he's using from them. "Ryu seems awfully clever, so he wouldn't just hide it on the roof."
Twilight used her magic to search the area, hoping to find the smoke machine. She sensed a power and looked to her right, spotting Ryu on top of a giant hammer. "You!" Twilight launched a magic beam at Ryu, who grabbed it with his claw and crushed it with zero effort. Twilight backed up, shocked by Ryu's amazing power, despite knowing his strength.
Ryu jumped down from the hammer, grinning sinisterly at her. "You seem to be aware of the power that justice has given me. Hence why you should know that I'm hardly trying." Fluttershy saw what was going on, being the only one close enough to do so. She snuck on over as Ryu continued talking. "It's quite astonishing truly. I'm more than aware of how you and Celestia spoke of me."
"So what if you know about all that?" Twilight said boldly. "Even if you knew of my birth you'd still be incapable of taking over Equestria. And your main reason is because you're toying with us!"
Ryu teleported behind Twilight and aimed his claw at her. "Brilliant, aren't you." Ryu blasted Twilight into the smoke detector and broke it, much to the black dragon's dismay, but the delight of Twilight and Fluttershy. Draco and the others heard breaking noises and ran over to them, spotting Ryu and hiding. "Too bad. I didn't want to foil my own plan. (proudly) Oh well."
Fluttershy grabbed a stun ray and zapped it at Ryu, who swatted it away as he turned around. Fluttershy shivered as Ryu walked over to her, grabbing her by her mane and then closing in on her. Despite not showing any affection for the yellow pegasus, Ryu kissed her instantly, shocking everyone else. Ryu held Fluttershy in her grasp and then looked devilishly into her eyes. He then threw Fluttershy off, letting Rainbow dash catch the stunned pegasus. Fluttershy blushed as she looked at Ryu, not knowing how to respond.
Ryu walked over to Fluttershy and put his finger on his chin, looking into her eyes with deception. "This is what your life has chosen for you." Rainbow dash growled and set Fluttershy down, aiming a punch at Ryu who grabs it with ease. "My. Perhaps you have some fire in you after all." Ryu blasted Rainbow dash into a wall, spawning his wings after doing so. "Farewell for now my future subjects. Have fun dying when I can kill you." Ryu flew off and Rainbow dash flew over to the others, with Fluttershy still being shocked.
Rainbow dash and Fluttershy were seen at Rainbow's place, watching tv in her living room. Rainbow dash was laughing at the show, only to notice that Fluttershy was still stunned from Ryu kissing her. "You okay Flutters?" Fluttershy nodded slowly, with Rainbow knowing that she was lying. "It's about Ryu, isn't it?"
Fluttershy flinched and nodded her head yes, knowing she couldn't hide this from Rainbow dash. "It's just...I never expected him to do something like that. With his mention of justice and all the stuff he did when we were at the cave, it seemed like he'd never sexually harass someone."
"Yeah, I feel ya dude;" Rainbow dash said in a caring way. "I've never been sexually harassed myself, but I know what it's like to feel this down. I mean hey. If someone ever kissed me without warning, I'd be skeptical on how to take it too." Fluttershy started crying, not wanting to face that ever again. Rainbow dash hugged Fluttershy, patting her back while playfully snarking a bit. "Hey dude, you're thirteen now." Rainbow dash patted Fluttershy's back, making her smile as she was then pulled away. "Wanna have a sleepover? For old times sake?"
Fluttershy took a liking to Rainbow's offer and nodded, knowing she could have some fun. "Yeah. I'd like that. And the sitter can still watch over Angel." Fluttershy then put her hoof on Rainbow's chest. "Just don't do too much sleep farting this time." Rainbow dash chuckled and nodded, attempting to fulfill Fluttershy's request.
Fluttershy was seen looking out of Rainbow dash's bedroom window, thinking about improving her bravery. Rainbow dash looked at Fluttershy when she walked in with a carton of sodas, curious to what she was thinking about. She walked over to her childhood friend and looked outside with her. "You thinking about something?"
"Just about my lack of confidence;" Fluttershy said, hoping she could make some improvements. "After what happened today, I realized that there are gonna to be times where no one is around to defend me. Even if I really need it. (Smiles) So when I get home, I'll train myself to become more confident."
Rainbow dash smiled and hoof fived Fluttershy, glad to know her wishes. "And I'll be there to help you in any way I can." Rainbow dash leaned in and whispered to Fluttershy. "Cheering for me at the Best young flyer competition comes to mind." Fluttershy rolled her eyes while smiling at Rainbow dash's words, knowing that she'd need some help with her ego too. She and Rainbow dash then walked over to their beds, getting ready to go to sleep after drinking their sodas, as the screen faded to black, ending the episode off.
An instrumental version of the main theme played during the credits.
Ryu was seen flying back over to his base in another land, having Tempest let him in. He walked into his base and looked over the walls, showing pictures of his feud with Celestia. He then sighed of defeat, knowing he couldn't beat Celestia now. He walked into his throne room and saw a picture of Tempest discovering the orb he was trapped in. He genuinely smiled at the picture, feeling that Tempest knew justice as well. Despite her wanting her own end of the deal. He then walked up to his throne and sat down on it, looking at a picture of him and his parents. He felt hatred soothe him as he saw the picture.
