Episode 7: The Ticket Masters, Part 2

My Little Pony: The Mane 12 Adventures

Season 1, Episode 7: "The Ticket Masters, Part 2"

Sunny and Twilight were in front a small, light blue house. It, for the most part, looked very comforting. "Is... this the right house? I've never been to Misty's," Sunny asked.

"One way to find out..." Twilight said, she walked up to the door and rang the doorbell. They waited for a few minutes before Twilight checked the window. The lights were closed, and Misty seemed to be nowhere. "Huh, she's not here."

"We have the wrong house, don't we?" Sunny asked.

"Um, Misty's not at home right now..." A small voice said. Sunny turned around to see Fluttershy and a bunny on her back.

"Fluttershy!" Sunny greeted. "It's nice to see you."

"Same, how have you been since..."

"Since we found the Elements of Harmony? It's been good, Maretime Bay is surprisingly a lot calmer than Canterlot. The ponies here are so nice!" Sunny said.

"Well, that's great, it's nice that you're adjusting to Maretime Bay fast." Fluttershy said. "Also, if I can ask, how did your parents react when you told them you were moving?"

"To be honest, Twilight's parents were actually ecstatic that Twilight was moving out." Sunny said. "I'm eighteen, I can technically do what I want now! Besides, my dad disappeared when I was twelve, and my mom died during childbirth... I'm pretty sure they'd be fine with it."

"Oh... I'm sorry for your loss..." Fluttershy somberly said.

"What? Oh, no, no! It's fine!" Sunny quickly said. "I've already moved on, it's alright!"

"Oh, okay..." Fluttershy shook head. "Um, I should head home, I need to make lunch."

"Right, right," Sunny grabbed Fluttershy's ticket and put it in her hooves. "This is your ticket for the Grand Galloping Gala! Princess Celestia invited us."

"Oh, my... this is..." Fluttershy stuttered. "I... I don't deserve this-" She was cut off by her bunny, who was angrily stomping it's foot. "Oh, uh, nevermind."

"So... what're you going to do at the gala?" Sunny asked.

"The only thing I really want to do there, is visit their garden! The Canterlot Gardens have a vast arrange of exotic plants and animals! I've always, always wanted to go visit! But I've never had the chance to, well, not until today!" Fluttershy said.

"The Gala is pretty exciting, isn't it?" Sunny said.

"It's the most exciting event in Equestria!" Fluttershy said. Her bunny started rapidly tapping on her tail, Fluttershy said goodbye before leaving.

"We still need to give the tickets to Zipp, Pipp, Izzy, and Misty." Twilight said. "We know where Izzy and Misty are, but what about Zipp and Pipp?"

Sunny thought for a second before she pulled out her phone. She scrolled for a while before she found sometime. "Here!" She showed Twilight a picture of a festival in Zephyr Heights. "Today marks the victory of the Thunder Revolution, Zephyr Heights celebrates it with a festival every year. That must be where they are!"

Twilight nodded. "Let's split up, I'll take Zephyr Heights, and you take Bridlewood. That way, it'll be quicker."

"Agreed," Sunny said.

Sunny walked up to the border of Maretime Bay, she knew where Bridlewood was, and it wasn't too far thankfully. "Wait!" A voice shouted.

Sunny turned around to see a panting Spike running up to her. "Spike?! What are you doing here?"

"I... was... looking... all... over... for... you!" Spike said, in between breaths. "Where's Twilight?"

"We decided to split up, she's probably heading to Zephyr Heights right now." Sunny said. "Wanna come with me to Bridlewood?"

Spike nodded, and the two of them started their journey to Bridlewood.

Twilight walked to an air balloon station, "Hello? I need a trip to Zephyr Heights?" Twilight said, walking up to the pony who was working there.

"Of course, ma'am. That'll be three bits," The pony said.

Twilight levitated three bits to the pony, "Here you go."

The pony put the bits into his pocket before asking, "Hey, you're Twilight Sparkle, aren't you?"

Twilight nodded. "I have to thank you! You saved Equestria from Nightmare Moon! Ponies are talking about you all everywhere I go!" The pony thanked.

"Oh, um, it was nothing." Twilight said. "I should be going, I don't want to be late! Haha..."

"Right!" The pony said. He opened the door of the air balloon and indicated for Twilight to get inside. Twilight stepped inside the air balloon, the pony untied the rope holding it to the ground and turned the engine on.

"Have a safe flight!" The pony said whilst the air balloon started going air borne.

"What?! You're not going with me?!" Twilight shouted.

"I can't! Sorry! There's instructions! It's pretty easy!" The pony said. The air balloon got higher while Twilight read the manual in the book next to her.

"Ugh, such a flaw." Twilight muttered. "Well, the instructions are easy." Not too long after, she figured out how to control the air balloon. And a few minutes later, Twilight arrived at the floating city in the clouds.

"Woah... Zephyr Heights..." Twilight muttered. The city was full of pegasi flying, and giant skyscrapers and the large screen. The streets were full of floats and stands, due to the festival. The castle was majestic, it stood tall among the city.

Twilight moved the air balloon to the landing dock, and was instantly greeted by a light blue pegasus mare with a light yellow mane. "Hiya! Are you new here?"

"Um... yes! Yes, I am new here." Twilight said.

"Personal visit? Family visit? Work?" The mare asked.

"Uh... personal visit, I guess."

"Alrighty! I'm Sky Dawn, and I'm your tour guide for your trip!" Sky Dawn cheerfully said.

"Oh- oh, no! I don't need a tour guide, I'll be fine!" Twilight protested.

"Sorry, it's mandatory. Every new pony who comes to Zephyr Heights must have a tour guide to show them around the city!" Sky Dawn explained. "So sorry! But you're stuck with me!"

"Heh... ugh..." Twilight groaned.

"You came at the right time Ms... uh, what is your name, exactly?" Sky Dawn asked.

"Twilight Sparkle! Princess Celestia's personal protégé!" Twilight said. "Do you know where exactly Princess Zipp and Pipp are? I really need to talk to them!"

"Sorry, but they're at the festival right now. They're busy for the who-o-ole day!" Sky Dawn said. "If we leave now, we might just catch their float!:

An idea sparked into Twilight's mind. "Of course, lead the way!"

Sky Dawn started walking into the city while Twilight followed behind. "Want to know some history?" Sky Dawn asked. "It's going to be a while until we get there."

"Uh... sure."

Sky Dawn cleared her throat, "As you may know, the Thunder Festival happens every year! But do you know why they do it?"

Twilight shook her head. "The Thunder Festival commemorates the victory of the ponies over the evil alicorn a thousand years ago today."

"Evil alicorn? You mean Nightmare Moon, right?" Twilight asked.

"Nope, a different alicorn. Legends say that she symbolized fire, like how Princess Celestia symbolizes the sun, and our new Princess Luna symbolizes the moon." Sky Dawn explained. "She wanted power, all of it! She stole the magic from Princess Celestia and other alicorns, but she wanted our magic as well. That's what started the Thunder Revolution, lead by Clover the Clever. Together, we drove the evil alicorn out of Equestria, and the magic was restored!"

"This... evil alicorn? Do you know what was her name?" Twilight asked.

Sky Dawn shrugged. "Not really, some say it was "Blaize" or "Ember", but most ponies just say "evil alicorn". You could ask Princess Celestia, y'know, because you are her protégé and all."

"Right..." Twilight said.

"Hey! We're here!" Sky Dawn said, pointing at the massive floats on the road. "Ooh, look at that one!" She indicated to a float that was shaped like Princess Celestia. "It's Princess Celestia!"

"It's... nice?" Twilight said, unsure how to react. "Where's Zipp and Pipp?"

"They're over at the back." She pointed to a float shaped like a flower. On top of it was Zipp, Pipp, and a purple pegasus wearing a golden crown with a purple jewel shaped like two pegasus wings, also known as Queen Haven.

"Come on!" Twilight said, running towards their float.

"Wha- wait up!" Sky Dawn said, chasing after the purple unicorn.

On the float, Zipp looked bored, while Pipp got thrown a rose bouquet. "Aww, thank you, who ever threw that!" Pipp said.

"Smile for the cameras, Zipp!" Queen Haven said, waving to the crowd.

"Yeah, yeah." Zipp rolled her eyes. She turned to the crowd and noticed a familiar purple unicorn in the crowd following their float. "Twilight?!" She turned to her mom, "Hey, mom? Can I, uh, invite one of my friends onto the float?"

"A friend? I don't know about that, dear. Maybe after the festival, we can invite them into the palace!" Queen Haven suggested. "I'd like to meet this mysterious friend, but not right now."

"Come on, please-e-e! It'll make me happier for the cro-owd!" Zipp pleaded.

"Well... let me ask your sister, this will be a family decision." Queen Haven said. The queen turned to her other daughter, who now wore a crown and had multiple bouquets in her hooves. "Pipp, Zipp wants to invite one of her friends onto the float."

"What?" Pipp said. She turned to her sister, "Zipp, Rainbow is in Maretime Bay! And so are our other friends!"

"Uh... not exactly." Zipp said. "Twilight's here."

"Twilight?! What's she doing here?! Oh! Do you think she'd like bouquet, I have too much on my hooves." Pipp said. "Yeah, sure, bring her up!"

Zipp smiled, turning to the crowd. She looked around for a second before she saw Twilight, "Hey, Twilight!? Wanna come on the float?" She shouted.

The crowd turned to Twilight, who laughed awkwardly. "Um..." Two pegasi guards lifted her up to the float, while Sky Dawn looked up surprised.

"She knows the Princesses? Well, she already knows Princess Celestia and Luna, why not go for the full set?" Sky Dawn chuckled. "Ooh, fire flakes!"

Twilight was put gently on the float. The first thing that she saw was the crowd below her, and beside her were welcoming faces of Zipp, Pipp, and Queen Haven.

"Oh, hello, dear!" Queen Haven said. "It's so nice to meet one of my dear Zephyrina's friends!"

"Mom!"

"Oh, hush, Zipp." Queen Haven said. "It's very nice to meet you... what is your name?"

"Um, it's Twilight Sparkle, your majesty." Twilight stammered.

"Oh! Twilight Sparkle? You're Celestia's student, aren't you?" Queen Haven said. "And you're the one who saved Equestria along with my daughters and their friends!"

"Yes, your majesty." Twilight said.

"Ah, don't be so modest. Call me, your majesty Queen Haven." Queen Haven said before laughing. "I'm kidding, just call me Queen Haven."

"Yes, um, Queen Haven." Twilight said.

"So, Twilight, what are you doing here? It's a nice surprise, but you should've told us you were coming to Zephyr Heights!" Zipp said.

"It was a... last minute decision." Twilight said. "I never thought I'd be on a float today..."

"It gets kinda boring, we still have the whole day to fill. But, you are here, you maybe it'll be a little less boring?" Zipp said.

"Yeah," Twilight smiled. "Look at all these ponies, they're all cheering for you."

"Comes with being a princess." Zipp said.

"Hey, Twilight!" Pipp said. "It's like, so nice to see you!" Pipp handed her a bouquet. "I have too much of these, you can have this one."

"Oh- uh, thanks? I guess." Twilight said, holding the bouquet in her hooves. "I wanted to give something to you two, that's why I came up here."

Twilight pulled out two tickets. "Tickets for the Grand Galloping Gala!"

Instead of looking happy or ecstatic like Twilight predicted, their faces showed confusion. "Uhh, what's wrong?"

"Twilight, we already have tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala." Zipp said. "We're princesses, we get invited every year! Our tickets are back at the palace."

"What?" Twilight looked at the names of the tickets, and saw that it was her ticket and her plus one. "Oh... right."

"Look at the bright side! We can celebrate the festival together! Isn't that fun?" Pipp said.

"Yeah, I guess so." Twilight said. "Hey, random question, but, what are you going to do at the gala?"

"I'm so glad you asked, Twilight! Everypony who is anypony attends the gala, including the famous ClipTrot star, Emerald Disco! She has over a trillion likes on every social media platform, so that's why this year, I'm going to persuade her to do some collabs with me. And if she accepts, I'll be so famous, I'll shine as bright as the sun!" Pipp said, her eyes sparkling.

"And if she doesn't?" Twilight asked.

"Oh. Well, that won't happen! I'm basically on the same level as her, even if she has a trillion likes and I only have... a few hundred thousand." Pipp said. "It will happen, Twilight!"

"Right... and you Zipp?" Twilight asked, facing the white pegasus.

Zipp shrugged. "Well, the only thing I'll be doing is investigating."

"Investigating? Investigating what?"

"You see, there's been a mystery that nopony's been able to solve. The disappearance of Sunset Shimmer - Princess Celestia's old student, - and Sprout Cloverleaf, son of Phyllis Cloverleaf, C.E.O of CanterLogic." Zipp explained. "No one knows what happened to them, and Princess Celestia isn't giving any answers to the press. But there were guards that night that might've saw the whole thing, I just need them to talk."

"Sunset Shimmer? Princess Celestia might've mentioned her a few times, but when she did, she always felt guilty." Twilight said.

"Do you think she had anything to do with it? That would explain why she wouldn't give anything to the press." Zipp muttered.

"I... maybe... but she wouldn't do anything bad to Sunset Shimmer! Princess Celestia always talked highly of her whenever she could." Twilight said.

Zipp sighed. "Yeah, you're right, it was wrong of me to think she had anything to do with it. But something happened to those two, but what?"

"Let's focus on enjoying the day, I got nothing else to do anyway." Twilight said. "Sunny must be in Bridlewood by now,"

Sunny and Spike walked into Bridlewood, the trees were so tall that it's leaves blocked most of the sky. To help brighten the place, lanterns were hung on most houses and trees. For some reason, the wood on the trees were a light purple and the leaves were pink, purple, or orange.

"Alright, who should we find first, Spike?" Sunny asked. "Izzy or Misty?"

"Let's go for Izzy, she sounds nice." Spike said. "Just how are we going to find her anyway?"

"We could... ask around! The locals must know where Izzy is!" Sunny said. She walked up to a light lavender unicorn with crimson red hair. "Um, excuse me? Do you know where Izzy Moonbow is?"

"Huh? Why would I know, I'm not friends with the girl." The pony said. Sunny asked a few more locals before being met with the same answer.

Sunny sighed before walking dejectedly back to Spike. "We're on our own."

"Huh? Why?" Spike asked.

"Nopony knows where Izzy is! We'll have to explore Bridlewood." Sunny said.

"Eh, it can't be that hard." Spike shrugged.

Sunny and Spike walked around Bridlewood, searching for Izzy. After a few minutes, Sunny sighed, Izzy wasn't anywhere! "Spike, I think this is a lost cause... Izzy isn't anywhere!"

"Where could she be?" Spike said. "Have we checked her house?"

Sunny gasped in realization. "Oh, right! We haven't checked her house yet! But, to be fair, we don't know where it is..."

"Is it that one?" Spike pointed to a giant tree, which looked like it had a house built inside. On the door had the words "Villa Izzy" written on it.

"That must be it!" Sunny said. She and Spike ran to the house before knocking on the door. They heard the shuffling of objects before the door opened. "Izzy?"

Instead of a light lavender unicorn mare, it was a small turquoise dragon. "Hello?" The dragon asked.

"Are you Sparky by any chance?" Sunny asked, to which the dragon nodded. "You're Hitch's dragon child! I'm Sunny, and this is Spike." Sunny nudged Spike forward, earning her a glare.

"Uh... hello?" Spike asked. "I'm Spike!"

Sparky spun around Spike rapidly, which caused the purple and green dragon to go dizzy. "Another dragon!?" Sparky squealed.

"I've never met another dragon before!" Sparky said. "You're Spike, right?!"

"Yes?" Spike said. "You're a dragon too, huh?"

Sparky nodded. "Yup! Sparky Sparkeroni!"

"Spark...eroni?" Sunny asked. "Hitch really named you that?"

Sparky nodded. "Yup! I mean, Sparky Trailblazer doesn't sound as good as Sparky Sparkeroni!"

"Heya, Sparky! Who's at the door?" Izzy looked over to see the orange mare and the purple and green dragon at her door. "Sunny!"

"Izzy! We've been looking all over for you!" Sunny said.

"That's nice!" Izzy said before an idea came into her mind. "Hey! Why don't you two come inside? I can't wait to show you Villa Izzy!"

"Uh, okay!" Sunny said. She and Spike went inside Izzy's house, which was bigger on the inside. "Woah! This is your house?"

"I'd call it my tree cottage, but yeah! It is!" Izzy said. "Hey, Sparky? Can you get some of my homemade tea?"

"On it!" Sparky zipped away, coming back quick with four cups of tea. "Here you go, madam Izzy!"

"Thank you, sir Sparky!" Izzy joked. "My patented: Izzy Moonbrew! Forged from the finest of teapots, mixed under the Bridlewood's luxurious moon! Together, they create the best tea in existence!"

Sunny grabbed one of the teacups and sipped it, and surprisingly enough, Izzy was correct. "Huh, it's good."

Spike took a cup too and drank the whole thing. "Its so good! Sweet and Spicy!"

"I got this recipe from my great, great, great grandmare!" Izzy said.

"You have a recipe book?" Sunny asked.

"Nope!" Izzy replied. "Anyways, what brings you here?"

"Do we really need a reason to visit a new friend?" Sunny said.

Izzy smiled, "Well, that makes sense!"

"So, Izzy, you know about the Grand Galloping Gala, right?" Sunny asked.

"Duh! It's like, the bestest party in Equestria!" Izzy said. "Why?"

"What if I told you that me, you, and the others have the chance to attend?" Sunny asked.

"Then that would be the best surprise ever! Why?" Izzy gasped. "Do you have tickets!?"

Sunny pulled out the tickets, "Of course! The princess invited us to the gala!"

"Really?! This is amazing! I've always wanted to go to the gala!" Izzy said. "To think, I, Izzy Moonbow, will make something so creative I'll be in the Canterlot Art Museum!"

"Hm? Why's that?" Sunny asked.

"Every year, at the Grand Galloping Gala, Princess Celestia holds an event where the lucky ponies who attend the gala, along with some of Canterlot's greatest artists get to create anything! The top ten best creations get put in the Canterlot Art Museum! I've been training for this my whole life!" Izzy said. "Sunny, follow me."

Izzy lead Sunny to a room which had various creations inside. "This is my Unicycling Hall! I keep every creation I have in here!"

Each creation was made from old stuff, what was once old was now new. "Izzy, this is incredible!"

"Each of these are made from old stuff, I can't believe they leave trash everywhere! I use the trash I find to make these babies!" Izzy proudly said. They reached the end of the hall, which lied a water fountain made from an old umbrella, a vase with a handle glued on it, and various others. "Introducing my first unicycle project!"

"What... is this, exactly?" Sunny asked.

"Uh, a water fountain? Duh! It's so obvious!" Izzy revealed.

Sunny was about to reply before she recieved a notification from her phone. Sunny checked her phone to see a message from Twilight.

Turns out that Zipp and Pipp were already invited. Have you given Izzy and Misty theirs yet?

Sunny replied with,

Uh, I'm kinda working on it. I'm with Izzy right now!

Well, alright! I'll see you later, Zipp and Pipp are showing me around Zephyr Heights. I had a tour guide, but I lost her somehow.

Also, Pipp and Zipp say hi!

"Um, Izzy?" Sunny looked up from her phone, "Why don't we speed things up? I still need to give Misty her ticket."

"Alright! I didn't know what I was going to say anyway..." Izzy said.

Sunny gave Izzy her ticket before they walked out of the 'Unicycling Hall'. Sunny turned to Spike, "Spike! We're going to go find Misty!"

"Oh, can I come with?" Spike asked.

Sunny nodded, "Bring Sparky, as well! Can't leave him alone here."

"Yay!" Sparky said. He, Spike, Sunny, and Izzy left the house. "Just one quick question, where are we going?"

"To the Crystal Tearooms! Misty said she'll be spending the day with her dad, and knowing Alphabittle, they'll be there." Izzy said. "Oh, and before you ask, Alphabittle is Misty's dad!"

The group arrived at the Crystal Tearooms, which was packed with ponies. "How are we going to find Misty?!"

"She's right there!" Izzy pointed to Misty, who sat next to a gray unicorn stallion with white hair. "Hey, Misty!"

"Huh?" Misty turned her head and saw Sunny, Izzy, Spike, and Sparky. "What are you doing here?!"

"We wanted to give you... this!" Sunny pulled out the last ticket - Misty's. "Your ticket to the Grand Galloping Gala!"

"Hold on there," The gray unicorn said. "Name's Alphabittle, Misty's father and pony who runs this joint." He indicated to the tearooms. "Want to tell me how Misty got invited to the Grand Galloping Gala?"

"Oh, um, you see..." Sunny awkwardly laughed. "Remember the whole Nightmare Moon thing? Uh, me, Twilight, Misty, and some of our other friends went into the Everfree Forest to get the Elements of Harmony! And we successfully stopped Nightmare Moon! Princess Celestia's inviting us to the Gala as a way of thanks!"

Alphabittle nodded. "So you mean to tell me, you went into the Everfree Forest, brought my daughter along, and faced off Nightmare Moon two days ago? You're the ponies who bear the Elements of Harmony now? Including my daughter?"

Sunny nodded before taking a step back. "As a citizen of Equestria, I commend you for doing this. But as a father, what were you thinking?! You could've easily died in there, along with my Misty!"

"Dad! We're all fine!" Misty said, stepping in the conversation. "If we didn't go, we would still have eternal night! We can't dwell on the past, so we should all forget about it."

Alphabittle sighed. "You're right, Misty. But I'm not so sure about Misty attending the Gala."

Izzy gasped. "What?! Why not?!"

"We all know how those elitists act, and what if Misty gets hurt in there? We're grateful that Princess Celestia invited Misty, but I'm afraid we'll have to decline."

"Dad?! No!" Misty protested.

"I'm sorry, but you're still under my protection, you're not eighteen." Alphabittle reminded. "I'm your dad, I'm doing what's best for you!"

"Dad, please! I'm seventeen, I can handle myself!" Misty said. "I've always wanted to go to the gala, you know that!"

"Mr. Alphabittle, please! Isn't there a way you could change your mind?" Sunny asked. "It won't be right if everyone goes except Misty!"

Alphabittle thought it over for a minute before speaking up. "Tell you what, if you beat me at any game, I'll let Misty go to the gala, I promise."

"I acce- oof!" Izzy put a hoof over Sunny's mouth before she whispered in her ear.

"Sunny! What are you doing!? Don't accept!" Izzy said.

"What? Why?" Sunny said, getting Izzy's hoof out of her mouth.

"Alphabittle's the master of games! You see those things at the back of the counter?" Izzy pointed to the counter, where at the back were multiple items. "He got them all by playing. Nopony has been able to beat Alphabittle at his own game! If you decline, maybe he'll still change his mind?"

Sunny shook her head. "I can't, there's a small chance that he will change his mind if I decline. Misty should be able to go to the gala!"

Izzy sighed. "Is there anyway you'll change your mind?"

"Nope," Sunny said. "Tell me what game does he usually play."

Izzy pointed at a 2x2 rubik cube, which caused Sunny to smirk. "Easy peasy, I can do that thing in ten seconds flat."

Sunny turned back to Alphabittle, "I accept your challenge, if I win you'll let Misty go to the gala."

"Good to know you're determined, I like that." Alphabittle smirked. "But I'm the game master, you really want to do this?"

"Misty will get that ticket, I know so." Sunny replied.

"Sunny, are you sure?" Misty asked, looking uncertain. "It's fine, really."

"Don't worry about it, Misty. I know I can do this," Sunny reassured.

"If you're done stalling, why don't we get started?" Alphabittle said.

"Hand me the rubik cube." Sunny said, determined.

"Rubik cube? What makes you think that?" Alphabittle said. "We'll be playing... Just Prance."

Sunny's face turned to one of shock, "Just... Prance?"

"Not so confident now, are you?" Alphabittle said. "Tell you what, if you win just one game, you win."

"Fine!" Sunny said. "Let's do this."

A few minutes later, a pony brought out the "Just Prance" machine, which Sunny and Alphabittle were standing on. "Are both ponies ready to battle?" The pony asked.

They both nodded. "This game will be best out of three, the earth pony will only need to win one round to win. If Alphabittle wins every round, the earth pony loses." The pony cleared her throat. "Round one!"

The game started, and four different colored hoof prints lit on the screen of the machine. The hoof prints matched the glowing ones on the machine's floor, but in a different arrangement.

Unsurprisingly, Alphabittle was able to keep up with the machine as it sped up. Sunny, on the other hand, was struggling with keeping up. Not too long after, Alphabittle was the one who won round one.

"Round two!"

Sunny steeled her nerves, and this time, was able to keep up with the machine, but missed a few. Alphabittle won the second round as well. "No!" Sunny groaned.

"Told you." Alphabittle said.

Izzy walked up to her friend, who was sweating. "Come on, Sunny! You can do this! Feel the beat! Feel it!"

"Yeah, yeah!" Sunny said. "I can do this!"

"Round three!"

This time, Sunny didn't mess up, not even once. She and Alphabittle had the same score for most of the game, that is, until Alphabittle messed up. Sunny won round three, leaving the gray stallion in bewilderment.

"I... did it? I did it!" Sunny said. "Misty! I did it! You're going to the gala!"

Misty cheered. "Yeah! You go, Sunny!"

Alphabittle chuckled. "Well, a deal is a deal. You won fair and square. Misty can go to the gala."

Misty, Sunny, and Izzy squealed. "We're going to the gala!" Izzy screamed. "I'm so excited!"

Sunny handed Misty her ticket. "Grand Galloping Gala, here we come!"

While the girls buzzed in excitement, Alphabittle chuckled nervously. How am I going to tell them I was still going to let Misty go even if Sunny lost.

Spike looked at Sparky, "So... you like gems?"

"Rarity gives me her extras, my personal favorite are smoky quartzes, they taste like chocolate!" Sparky said. "What's your favorite?"

"Sapphires, they taste like mint!" Spike said. "Always thought it would be blueberry though..."
