Griffon The Brush-Off

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

*Treebrary

It had been a few days sense the little ticket incident. I was helping Spike and Twi organize the treebrary when Pinks stormed in and started complaining about a griffon named Gilda. After she was done venting.

"So Pinkie Pie, are you sure that this friend of Rainbow's is really so mean?" I asked.

"Um, yeah. She keeps stealing Rainbow Dash away, she pops my balloons, and she told me to buzz off. I've never met a griffon this mean. Well, actually, I've never met a griffon at all, but I bet if I had, she wouldn't have been as mean and grumpy as Gilda" answered Pinks.

"You know what I think, Pinkie Pie?" Asked Twi.

"No i dont, what do you think?" Asked Pinks in response.

"Well, I think... you're jealous" said Twi.

"Jealous?" Asked Pinks.

"Green with envy" said Spike. "Well, in your case, pink with envy" he continued.

"Yes. Jealous. Listen Pinkie, I don't want to upset you, but just because Rainbow Dash has another friend doesn't make Gilda a grump" said Twi.

"I know that" said Pinks. "I think she's a grump because she doesn't want Dashie to have any friends besides her" she continued.

"I can believe that" i said. "Which is why im coming with you" i continued. "Let's go test your theory" i concluded as i made a portal for us.

We hid after we stepped out of the portal. We listened in on Gilda and Rainbow.

"Ugh, I gotta take care of a few weather jobs around here. Shouldn't take long. Just, uh, hang out in town and I'll come find ya" said Rainbow as she flew off.

After she flew off Gilda pranked Granny Smith by pretending to be a rattle snake, nearly scarring the literal shit out of her away as she ran away.

"Aw, poor Granny Smith" said Pinks.

Gilda stole an apple from a vendor and eat it.

"She's not only a mean, she's also a thief" I said.

Flutters was showing a group of baby ducks and there mother how to get home.

"All right little ones, this way, this way. Mama duck, you're free and clear" Flutters said to the duck's as she accidentally bumped into Gilda.

"Hey" said Gilda. "I'm walkin' here" she continued.

"Oh, um, I'm sorry. I-I-I was just trying to..." Flutters tried to say before Gilda cut her off

"Why don't you just watch where you're going, doofus?" Asked Gilda angrily.

"B-b-b-but I... I..." Flutters tried to say before running away crying.

"Ugh, please, all these lame ponies are driving me buggy. I gotta bail" said Gilda as she flew away.

"She's a grump, a thief, and a bully. The meanest kind of mean meanie-pants there is. I can take it, but no one treats Fluttershy like that. No!. One!. This calls for extreme measures, Pinkie Pie style" said Pinks. "Pax, open a portal to sugar cube corner, ive got a plan" she continued as i opened the portal.

*Sugar cube corner

A couple of hours had past and everyone in town was showing up to a welcome to Ponyville party for Gilda.

"Welcome, welcome. Welcome!" Said Pinks to her friends as she invited them inside.

"Who's this Gilda I've heard nothing about?" Asked AJ.

"I hear she's an old friend of Rainbow's. A griffon, so rare" said Rarity.

"You've met Gilda, right?" Asked Twi as she looked to Flutters. "What's she like?" She continued

"Oh, um, well, I'll tell you later, Twilight" said Flutters. "Um, Pinkie Pie, about this party for Gilda. Umm... Do you really think it's a good idea? I mean–" Flutters tried to say before Pinkie cut her off.

"Don't worry your pretty little head about mean old Gilda. Your auntie Pinkie Pie's got it all taken care of" said Pinks.

"I'm a year older than you" said Flutters.

After that quick the quest of honor finale showed up.

"Gilda! I'm so honored to throw you one of my signature Pinkie Pie parties, and I really, truly, sincerely, hope you feel welcome here among all us pony folk" said Pinks as she held out her hand, Gilda took it and got electrocuted. The entire crowd laughed at that.

"Oh Pinkie Pie, the old hoof-shake buzzer. You are a scream" said rainbow.

"Yeah, good one, Pinkie Pie" said Gilda.

"Come on G, I'll introduce you to some of my other friends" said rainbow as she lead her off.

"Please help yourself" said Pinks holding out a tray of snacks.

"Vanilla lemon drops. Don't mind if I do" said Gilda as she eat a couple. "HOT!" She suddenly screamed.

"G, the punch" said Rainbow.

"Huh?" Asked Gilda as she ran over to the punch bowl.

"Well, what do you know, pepper in the vanilla lemon drops" said Pinks.

"Ha. Priceless. Priceless" said Rainbow as she laughed.

"Yeah, hilarious" said Gilda as she finished drinking the punch.

After awhile Pinks brought out a giant cake. "Cake time everypony" she announced. Gilda tried to blow out the candles but they re-lighted themselves. This process repeated for a while. Everypony started to laugh.

"Re-lighting birthday candles, I love that prank. What a classic" I said.

"I wonder who did that" said Pinks.

"Yeah, I wonder" said Gilda.

"Who cares. This cake is amazing" said Spike.

"Spike!" Said Twi.

"What?" He asked.

"It's great, try some" i said as i handed her a plate.

About an hour had passed and Gilda had been pranked a few more times, but she finale lost it.

"This is your idea of a good time? I've never met a lamer bunch of dweebs in all my life. And Pinkie Pie, you! You are queen lame-o with your weak little party pranks. Did you really think you could make me lose my cool? Well, Dash and I have ten times as much cool as the rest of you put together. Come on Dash, we're bailing on this pathetic scene" but Rainbow wasn't leaving with her. "Come on Rainbow Dash. I said, we're leaving" she continued.

"You know Gilda, I was the one who set up all those weak pranks at this party" said Rainbow.

"What?" Asked Gilda.

"So I guess I'm queen lame-o" said Rainbow.

"Come on, Dash, you're joshing me" said Gilda.

"They weren't all meant for you specifically, it was just dumb luck that you set them all off" said Rainbow.

"No way. It was Pinkie Pie. She set up this party to trip me up, to make a fool of me" said Gilda.

"Me? I threw this party to improve your attitude. I thought a good party might turn that frown upside down" said Pinks.

"It's true, i was there" i said.

"And you sure didn't need any help making a fool of yourself. You know, this is not how I thought my old friends would treat my new friends" said Rainbow. "If being cool is all you care about, maybe you should go find some new cooler friends someplace else" she continued.

"Yeah? Well you, you, you are such a, a flip-flop" said Gilda. "Cool one minute and lame the next. When you decide not to be lame anymore, gimme a call" said Gilda as she flew off super fast.

"Wow, talk about a party pooper" i said.

"I'm sorry everypony, for bringing Gilda here. I didn't know how rude she was. And Pinkie Pie, I'm really sorry she ruined that awesome party you put on for her" said Rainbow.

"Hey, if you want to hang out with party poopers, that's your business" said Pinks.

"I'd rather hang out with you. No hard feelings?" Asked Rainbow.

"Obviously" said Pinks as the two of them hugged. When they separated Twi walked up to Pinks.

"Hey Pinkie. Sorry I accused you of misjudging Gilda. Looks like I'm the one who misjudged you" said Twi.

"It's okay Twilight, even you can't be a super smart all the time. Come on everypony, there's still a whole lot of party to finish!" Said Pinks. Everypony cheered.
