Season 2: Episode 6 - A Date, a Show, and an Engagement

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"You know Twilight, I have to admit, when you asked us to have a date in the park, not only did I not expect this to turn into a triple date, but you also refused to wear your regallia out of the castle this time." Flash Sentry said. "Yet despite the later, we have yet to have any trouble." He added.

"I told you Flash, it's the crown; it's always the crown." Twilight said. "Besides, this turning into a triple date; while not expected; was easy to improvise for." She added.

"Thanks for letting us in on this Picnic date Twilight." Rainbow Dash said. "Being a Sonicbolt sure can work up an appitite." She added.

"Wait...since when were you fully part of them?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"We've been over this Pinkie...I've been part of them from the get-go. Spitfire is still looking for our first show location, but no luck so far." Rainbow Dash said.

"We're just being patient right now. It shouldn't take too long to get our names in the papers." Soarin said.

"Here's a thought: Why not advertise a show for here in Ponyville? Sure it's not too big, but it might help." Cheese Sandwich said.

"I think that's a great idea! You gotta start somewhere after all." Pinkie Pie said.

"As much as I hate to admit it, they are both right. You all need to start somewhere and I say start small. Talk it over with Spitfire later if you want to." Twilight said.

"That would be a great thing for Ponyville too; it might even attract a few others." Flash Sentry said. Suddenly he noticed a Pony wheeling in a wagon off the beaten road. "Hang on, we may have trouble..." He said.

"What? Where?!" Twilight said but then spotted what Flash spotted. "Oh no. Flash let me handle this." Twilight said and approuched the pony who turned out to be Trixie only she and her wagon were looking different. Trixie was no longer wearing her usual get-up and her wagon was designed to be something more mondane. "...Trixie?!" Twilight asked.

"So...if it isn't the Princess of Friendship herself...care to rub it in?" Trixie asked. But then she looked dejected. "...That's what your expecting me to say aren't you? Thing is that no longer matters to Trixie. Trixie is done trying to outclass you. That's clearly not going to happen now. Not with you being a princess and everything. Trixie has been doing some things since she last saw you...and she's now changed her outlook on life. Trixie...no...I have been going places and making amends I believe you call them. With Ponyville last on my list for obvious reasons. So Twilight...I am sorry for everything. If you'll have me...Trixie would like to bunk with you until she finds a house for herself in Ponyville." Trixie said.

"Actually...I did recently take on a student of my own. Perhaps while your bunking in my castle, you two can become friends." Twilight said.

"Trixie will try..." Trixie said. "But Trixie makes no promises she's not sure she can keep." She added and then headed off.

"...What just happened?" Flash asked.

"I'm think Trixie really is going to turn her life around." Twilight said.


The next day, using Twilight's advice, the Sonicbolts were doing advertisement for their local show in ponyville.

"Pinkie Pie's even managed to set us up with Vinyl Scratch. THE Vinyl Scratch. She's local here in Ponyville but she's better known as DJ-PON3." Rainbow Dash said.

"And DJ-PON3 has fame outside of Ponyville. I'd love to see the other flight teams try to argue they have her doing audio for them." Soarin said.

"It'll make the show 20% cooler, no doubt!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

"I don't." Spitfire said with a smile. "Great job. Now, Lightning Dust, you can participate, but you better do things right and by my orders. Got that?" Spitfire asked.

"Yes captain!" Lighting Dust said.

Later on at sunset, everyone turned up for the show. It was quite the amazing spectaticle which really showed off how great the Sonicbolts were. Even Lighting Dust was able to stay in synch with everyone. The show made a killing that day.

But shortly after it was done...

"Hey Twilight..." Flash said to Twilight.

"What's up Flash? You've been acting weird all day since you heard about this Airshow." Twilight said.

"There's something I'd like to ask you." Flash said.

"What is it Flash?" Twilight said. Suddenly Flash got out a ring.

"Princess Twilight Sparkle...will you marry me?" Flash Sentry said. Twilight, crying tears of joy, suddenly tackled Flash Sentry to the ground in a hug.

"Yes! Yes I'll marry you!" Twilight exclaimed. Everyone awed and even Rainbow Dash had to fight tears.

"It's...it's too perfect...and too awesome..." Rainbow Dash said.

"I know..." Soarin said, also fighting tears.


Elsewhere, Ace was walking through the Everfree forest.

"Stupid brat...I'll make her pay for disgracing Ace like that!" Ace said to himself. Suddenly he bumped into a unicorn stallion. "OOF! Sorry sir...I wasn't watching where I was going." Ace said.

"Your Ace, former star of the Wonderbolts reserves yes?" The stallion asked.

"What of it?" Ace asked.

"I have a proposition for you. I can help you get revenge on that filly that upstaged you, if you agree to help me with getting some revenge of my own." The Stallion said.

"...Very well. But since you know my name, how about you tell me yours?" Ace asked.

"Don't you recognize me? I am Insightful Wraith!" The Stallion said. That's when it clicked for Ace.

"YOU?! YOUR INSIGHTFUL WRAITH?! YOUR A WANTED PONY!" Ace eclaimed.

"Associating with a wanted pony will be a small price to pay to put that upstart filly in her place, am I wrong?" Insightful Wraith asked.

"Your...not wrong..." Ace said. "Fine. Then from now until we've both gotten revenge, I agree not to turn you in. After that though, you best leave town or I'll turn you in." He added.

"Consider that easy to agree to." Insightful Wraith said. He then gave off an evil laugh after he and Ace shook on their deal.


Author's Note

This takes place shortly after the events of "Applejack's 'day' off". Also yes, Trixie has some changed motivations this time around.

And you all really should've listened to Insightful Wraith when he said you haven't seen the last of him.
