Shaktidash

One day, both Rainbow Dash, Palash Bloom, Miracle Berry, and Rainbow Dash's best human friend were bored with nothing to do, so they decided to watch old TV shows. Palash Bloom chose Mahabharat, Miracle Berry chose Dekh Bhai Dekh, Rainbow Dash's best human friend chose Hum Paanch, while Rainbow Dash chose Shaktimaan. Her best human friend said, "Why do you choose this show, Rainbow Dash?" Rainbow Dash said "The show that I chose, Shaktimaan, is totally epic because the titular character is indeed a superhero! One day, I'm going to be like him." She later fantasized her superhero achievements in the city, only for her best human friend to snap her out from her daydream. Her best human friend then said, "You know what Rainbow Dash, Shaktimaan was very popular among children back in my childhood days."

After watching an episode of the show, Rainbow Dash became inspired by the show. She said "Look how cool Shaktimaan is! He is super strong, he moves fast by rapid rotation, and is invincible just like me!!!!!!!!!". She later decided to become a superhero that's 20% cooler. She dresses up in her superhero costume, in which her three super duper close friends said "Rainbow Dash, what's with the custom superhero costume?" Rainbow Dash said "This is my superhero ego, Shaktidash!!!!". Then later, she dashed off from the apartment block to detect danger in Delhi-NCR.

On the way, she dashed all over the city and found a cat sitting on a tree. The cat's owner, who appears to be an eight-year old little boy, said " CAN ANYONE HELP SAVE MY PET CAT NAMED VISHNU FROM THE TREE?" Shaktidash (a.k.a. Rainbow Dash) heard the owner and sprang into action, saying "Never fear young little boy, Shaktidash is here to save the day!". She saved the cat from the tree and rightfully gave it to its owner. The owner thanked the mysterious pony superhero for the help by saying "Thank you for saving my cat from the tree, mysterious pony superhero".

A few days later, many newspapers and news outlets across India reported that a mysterious pony dressed as a superhero has saved people from dangerous situations in Delhi-NCR, such as saving a driver from a scooter that is falling off from a ditch which eventually saved the driver's life, stopping a kidnapping incident involving a 14-year old girl from a government school, and also, stopping a garbage truck from falling over in the river. Rainbow Dash was proud of the featured headlines in the newspapers, however, she had to keep her identity secret in order for the public not to find out. Rainbow's best human friend said, "Rainbow Dash, have you been obsessed with Shaktimaan lately? Because you told us to call you Shaktidash." Rainbow answered "Yes, and I'm a superhero now, saving Delhi-NCR from dangers, threats, and the forces of evil!!!!!!!!!!! By the way, you can call me Shaktidash from now on."

Suddenly, Rainbow Dash heard news on the TV about a robbery incident inside a bank. At the bank, three robbers were stealing cash worth 57,000 rupees. Worst of all, they told the customers and the workers inside to duck down. Upon seeing the robbery, she later dressed up as her superhero alter-ego "Shaktidash" and zoomed off to the site. She informed the local police "Police!!!! The robbers are getting away with all those money from the bank!!!!! We need to stop them!!!!!!" Then a policeman invited her to enter inside the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga police car.

Back in the apartment block, Twilight Sparkle and her best human friend surfed television channels until they found out that a police chase caused by the bank robbery incident is live on TV. Her best human friend stopped changing the channel. The police, along with the car of the robbers, stopped at a corner. "Hold it right there you robbers. You are under arrest!", the police said. One robber tried to escape but was immediately punched in the face by Shaktidash, prompting the police to reward her for her bravery in the incident.

Afterwards, the stolen money worth 57,000 rupees was returned to the bank by the police. A female news reporter then said, "Who's responsible for stopping this robbery incident in the bank?" The mysterious superhero pony interviewed her and said "Hello Ma'am, it's me, Shaktidash, Delhi-NCR's superhero!" Back at the apartment block in the second floor, Twilight then said, "H, isn't that the mysterious superhero pony from the news? He/she's being interviewed by the media." Her human best friend answered "Yes, I recognized that mysterious superhero pony in the local and national newspapers since she saved the day in this land."

On live TV, the same reporter said, "What's your real name? I want to know". The mysterious superhero pony unmasked herself, revealing it to be Rainbow Dash all along. Both her best human friend, Princess Twilight, and the inhabitants of her apartment block gasped in shock. A few seconds later, a message via Jaudnath from Twi's friend group chat said "RAINBOW DASH IS THE MYSTERIOUS SUPERHERO PONY IN OUR CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS HER ALL ALONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Pinkie Pie even called up H's phone via video call, saying "LOOK! DASHIE WAS THE SUPERHERO PONY ALL ALONG!!!!!"

Rainbow Dash had to explain to the public via live TV. "Actually, the mysterious superhero pony was me all along. My true identity is basically Rainbow Dash. I decided to become a superhero because I was inspired by the old television show Shaktimaan", she said to the female reporter. When she arrived home, many people in the housing society recognized her. One resident said "Hey pegasus! Aren't you the true mysterious superhero pony that made headlines?". Rainbow Dash answered, "It was me all along".

Back in her apartment block, she confessed to the family of her human best friend, saying "Hello everyone, I really have a confession to make. I dressed up as a superhero because I was inspired by an old TV show called Shaktimaan, which I became my superhero alterego. If I had superpowers, all I wanted is to save the world from evil". Her human best friend's parents said, "Rainbow, you don't need superpowers to be featured on mass media. All you need is to be you."

One morning, the local newspaper arrived in the apartment block of the housing society. As Rainbow Dash went out of her apartment room, she saw the newspaper's front page, with the headline saying "Mysterious Superhero Pony Revealed as a Pegasus from Delhi". Rainbow Dash is proud that she has revealed her identity as a 20% cool pony who loves daring action.
