Sunset watched the car drive off. She didn't turn around until she couldn't see the car anymore. Fluttershy can only stare in shock.
"No wonder why you're on the run!" she said quietly.
"Come on, darling. We still have to find a new outfit for you to wear!" Rarity said quickly as she grabbed Berry's arm.
"I don't need a new outfit, it's fine," he told her. Rarity shook her head. "I completely disagree you can never have too many outfits!"
"And if you wear something different, you might not get recognized," AJ added. Berry sighed.
"Alright," he reluctantly agreed. AJ looked over at the cashier and at the shattered window. She laughed sheepishly.
"heh heh, sorry about that...." The cashier waved her off.
"No worries. I was actually worried about that boy. He seemed kind of dangerous." he told her.
"I'll just call the repair people to fix it for me."
"kind of dangerous...more like unsafe to be here or anywhere," Berry muttered but the cashier didn't seem to noticed.
Rarity came with what appears to be 40 different outfits.
"Why don't you try these on."
"I-I thought we were only getting a few," Berry stuttered. Rarity looked at him confused.
"This is only a few...well compared to the ones I have." Sunset nodded in agreement.
"She has so many outfits, she sometimes loses things in her own closet," she told him. Berry groaned. "Alright." After over and hour and a half of trying new outfits, Rarity decided to buy them all even though Berry said he didn't need any.
"Nonsense! You never know when you might need to wear them!" She told him. The cashier rang up the total. Two thousand dollars. Berry's eyes widened in surprise.
"I don't have that kind of money!" He reached into his pockets. "In fact, I don't any money at all!"
Rarity came to the cashier.
"Don't worry, darling." She looked at the cashier. "I believe this should cover it!" She handed him a wad of bills. The cashier counted them to make sure the amount was paid. Satisfied he gave her the receipt.
"That should cover it, you have a nice day!" he smiled. Rarity and the rest left the store. Berry wore a different outfit. Especially a hat to cover his face.

"What next?" Berry asked as they left the mall. They went inside the car and Twilight levitated the shopping bags into the truck. As she closed the lid she saw Rose come by.

"Hey Rose, you said you had a lab at your place?" Twilight was eager to check it out, considering she had one herself. Rose nodded and smiled. "Of course just follow me if you will." Twilight and the rest got into the car and followed Rose to her house. It was a fairly big house. No where close to a mansion but bigger than the average home. As they got out of the car, Rose led them to the front door.
"Welcome to my place. Please come make yourself at home," she said warmly. As soon as Berry, who was the last to enter stepped in, Rose closed the door behind him.
"I think we all know what we're here for. I won't waste your time. This way!" She motioned the girls and Berry to follow her. They went through a hallway. As they walked on, Berry got an uncomfortable feeling about all this.
"You know what? I think I'm just going to wait in the car," he said suddenly. Sunset looked at him worried.
"Are you alright?"
"I don't know..."Berry mumbled.
"I'm sure you're just worrying too much," suggested Rarity. Berry thought that she was right. Maybe he was getting a bit over worried.
"I guess so," he reluctantly agreed.
"And this door leads to the basement, which is my lab," she explained. She opened the door and they followed her in. The air around them smelled...nice for a basement.
"It's kinda dark in here," Rainbow commented.
"That's because she hasn't turned on the lights, silly!" Pinkie giggled.
"I know that," Rainbow said rolling her eyes. Rose turned on the lights and everyone, especially Twilight was amazed by what they saw. It was a full scale laboratory that would surely make even the most fanatical science person gaze at it in awe.
"This must cost a fortune!" Twilight gasped. She looked around some more.
"Twilight, you said you had a lab too?" Rose asked as she continued to show them around. Twilight was too busy admiring when she snapped back into reality.
"Oh! Yeah I do!...it's just no where near as cool as this."
"As you might already know, most of my lab is powered by magic in this world." Rose said. Suddenly from inside her pocket her phone rang. She took it out and looked to see who was calling her. She had a slight frown on her face. She looked up.
"I am so sorry but I must take this," she said apologetically.
"I'll be right back, just try not to blow the place up," she told them as she went upstairs and closed the door.
"I wonder who's calling her?" Rainbow wondered.
"Well she is kinda famous you know with her being on TV and all, probably a fan," suggested Rarity. Twilight was looking at a cabinet. It stood out from the lab. Almost as if the main purpose was for it to be noticed. She opened the cabinet and was shocked by what she saw. It was a case full of chemical liquids each one labeled. "fire power" "invisiblility" "Ice" "Elemntals" Rainbow was behind her.
"So that's how she has powers," she muttered.
"Oh I see you're looking at those!"
Twilight jumped in surprise and turned around.
Rose has returned.
"Who was that on the phone?" AppleJack questioned. Rose's face briefly changed into a startled expression, but quickly changed back so fast, AppleJack wasn't even sure it happened.
"Oh, well you know how I'm currently learning about magic in this world?" Rose asked. Applejack nodded although she still had her suspicions.
"Yeah well its a close associate of mine. He helps me with my research."
"And who might that be?" Rarity asked. Rose shook her head apologetically.
"I'm sorry, but he wishes to remain anonymous. I guess he just doesn't want to deal with people asking him a lot of questions." She then noticed Twilight gazing in awe at the chemicals.
"I see you're looking at those."
She pointed to the liquids and explained.
"I use those to acquire magic. You see, one day I wanna become a superhero."
"A superhero? Sweet!" Rainbow said excitedly. A smug appeared on her face. "You know, I don't mean to brag or anything but....We are some pretty good superheroes. We are called the Equestria Girls!" Rose was quite impressed.
"oooh, what kinda of super hero things do you do?" she asked interested to know more.
"We save the world from danger like a gazillion times!" Rainbow replied.
"Hey uhh can we go now?" I kinda don't want to stay at one place for long," Berry told Rainbow. She had almost forgotten about the kid.
"Oh sure!" Sunset looked at Rose.
"I'm sorry but we gotta go." She looked at Berry. "He's on the run by a group who he says are the Chaotics"
"Ahhh, I heard they are extremely dangerous," well I won't waste your time, if you have to leave go on right ahead," she smiled. "Thanks for visiting anyways,"
"It's no problem Sunset smiled back. They left the house and drove off.
