BTW you're starring in a movie

Movie Night

    One sunny Saturday morning in Ponyville, Spike was fast asleep in his warm bed. Twilight had already been up for an hour reading a book about magical plants in the Everfree forest. Spike suddenly had the urge to throw up (This is what he feels every time Twilight receives a letter from the Princess).

       “Ooooh!  A letter!”   Said Twilight, as she caught it.

       “What does it say?” asked Spike.

       “It says:

       “Dear Twilight sparkle

       I have been watching the other ponies in Equestria interacting with each other, and I have noticed that they aren’t experts in friendship either. When I sent you to study friendship, I wasn’t really thinking about the other ponies. It seems that some of them need a refreshing on what friendship is all about. I have also noticed that the new invention of movies had become very popular in a short time. So I thought of a great idea for you and your friends to star in your very own movie to refresh ponies’ minds on friendship. I told the director you will be starting tomorrow. The movie studio is in Canterlot.  You can ask anypony where it is and they will tell you.

Princess Celestia

P.S. You will each be paid 1000 bits for staring in this movie.”

       “Wow!”   Said Spike.   “Your own movie!”

       “I think that is a great idea! I have been noticing ponies not treating each other as they should.”  Said Twilight.  “Let’s go tell the others!”

       “Rainbow!”  Yelled Twilight as she bashed the door to Rainbow Dash’s house.   “Open the door!”

       “What do you want Twilight?!”  Yelled Rainbow Dash in a crabby irritated voice.   “It’s too early to be knocking on somepony’s door!”

       “First of all, it’s noon.   Second, it’s really important, and I need to tell you now.”

       “Fine, what is it?”

       “The princess sent me a letter this morning saying that you, our other friends and I are going to star in a movie!”

       “Nah, I’ll pass.” She began to close the door.

       “No wait! Did I mention there is money involved?”

       Without hesitation, Rainbow Dash said,  “I’m in!”

       “I thought so!”   Said Twilight in a very excited voice.  “Just meet me at the train station tomorrow at ten.”

       “What! That is too early!”  Exclaimed Rainbow.

       “Well if you don’t get there at ten o’clock sharp, we will leave without you, and you won’t get your money.”

       “Fine.”   Said Rainbow in an irritated voice.

       “Well if it isn’t my Widdle Spikey Wikey!”   Said Rarity in a babyish voice.

       Spike blushed.  “Hi Rarity.   Twilight sent me to tell you about the letter she got this morning.”

       “What was it about?”   Asked Rarity.

       “It said that Twilight and her friends are going to be in a movie!”

       “I’m her friend, right?”   Asked Rarity.

       “I guess…”   Said spike in a confused voice.

       Rarity gasped loudly.   “Oh my gosh!  I’m going to be FAMOUS!”

       “Great!  Twilight said to meet her at the train station tomorrow at ten.”

       “I’ll definitely be there!”   Rarity slammed the door.   Spike sighed passionately.

        “No! I won’t do it!”  Cried Fluttershy.

       “Come on Fluttershy!” Twilight said.

       “No! I’m not going in front of millions of ponies!”  Exclaimed Fluttershy, still crying.

       Twilight had to think of something fast.

       “No Fluttershy, ponies aren’t going to watch it!”   Said Twilight after she thought of a plan.

       “Then who is?!”

       “All of your animal friends!”

       “Really?”   Fluttershy stopped crying.

       “Yes!”

       “Well, I don’t want to disappoint my animal friends… Oh fine, I’ll do it.”

       “Yay!”   Twilight was very excited.   “Just meet me at the train station tomorrow at ten.”

       “Okay.”

       “That sounds like a great idea Spike!”   Said Applejack.   “But we’ve got a big harvest tomorrow.  I don’t think I’ll be able to do it.”

       “Well…Ummm…”   Spike felt as though he was going to throw up again.

       Another letter came in from Celestia.

       “Dear Spike,

       I understand that Applejack has a big harvest tomorrow and that she can’t make it to the movie casting. I have assigned two ponies to help Big Macintosh so Applejack won’t need to help. I have also notified some of the other members of the apple family to help Granny Smith with apple pies too. Applejack is free to come tomorrow.

Princess Celestia”

       “Perfect! That should do just fine!”  Stated Applejack

       “Great, Twilight said to be at the train station tomorrow at ten.”

       “I’ll be there!”

       “Where is Pinkie Pie?!”   Yelled Twilight in a frustrated voice.

       “Well, she wasn’t at Sugarcube Corner, she wasn’t at the pond, she wasn’t frolicking in flowers, and she wasn’t pranking.”   Spike said.

       “Uuuugggghhhh!”

       “Hey guys!”   Pinkie was behind them.

       “Where have you been, Pinkie?!”   Twilight’s mane was messed up.

       “I was watching paint dry.   It’s actually pretty fun!   This time it was GREEN paint!   Isn’t that exciting?”

       “O…k…   Anyway, I was going to tell you that we are going to star in a movie!”

       “Oooooooh, that sounds like fun! When do I start?”

       “Meet me at ten in the morning tomorrow at the train station and I will tell you the details.  Okay?”

       “Ok, see you then Twilight!   I’ve got to go, because I’m going to watch red paint dry now, YAY!”

“WHERE THE BUCK IS RAINBOW DASH!?”   Twilight yelled.

       Twilight was sweating like a fat, bearded man at the beach.

       “Calm down, I’m right here.”   Rainbow Dash came out of the train’s bathroom.   “I just had to use the bathroom; I have to go a lot in mornings.”

       “Oh…”   Twilight was cleaning her sweat off the floor with a towel.   “I thought you were not here.”

       “Oh, well next time, please don’t swear really loud.   You should really get some help with your temper.”   Rainbow insisted.

       “Hey!”   Twilight was offended.   “I don’t need help!”

       “Just saying.”   Rainbow sat down.

       “So tell us more about this-here movie we’re going to be in, Twilight.”   Applejack changed the subject.

       “Well, some of the ponies in Equestria are starting to forget what friendship is all about.”   Twilight explained.

       Pinkie gasped loudly, “This will NOT be tolerated!”

       “Pinkie, let me continue.   The Princess sent me a letter telling me about this, and told me that we will be staring in a movie about friend…”   Twilight was cut short by a loud snoring sound.   She was furious.   “RAINBOW!   Wake up!”

       Rainbow Dash was sleeping on her seat.   “You told me to get up early, so I am going to get some sleep until I am fully rested.”   Rainbow continued to sleep.

       “Ugh!”   Twilight was annoyed.

       A few seconds later Rainbow got up, and stretched.   “Okay… I’m fully rested.”

       Twilight stared at her for a second.   “Anyway, we will be starting in a movie about friendship to refresh other pony’s minds about what it means.”

       “Wait!   You said we were making a movie for my animal friends, not other ponies!”   Fluttershy was hiding under her seat.

       “Oh yeah, about that…”   Twilight was sweating again.

       Fluttershy was crying.   “You lied Twilight!”

       “Sorry, I just wanted you to get on the train.”   Twilight apologized.

       The other four ponies watched with blank faces.

       “At least it’s not a live performance.”   Twilight tried to make Fluttershy feel better.

       “It isn’t?”   Fluttershy asked.

       “No, it’s a movie.   You don’t know what a movie is?”  Pinkie asked.

       “No, I never got all of this new technology stuff.”   Fluttershy finished crying.

       “Oh, well all you do is sit in a studio with only us and a camera.”   Pinkie explained.

       “Oh, if that’s all then I’ll be fine.”  Fluttershy was calm again.

       “Okay,”   Twilight said, “any questions?”

       “Will there be zombies, and we have to kill them to save the whole pony race?!”   Rainbow Dash asked in an excited voice.

      “No,”   Twilight said, “It’s about friendship.”

       “Dang it.”   Rainbow sat down.

       “I’ve got one.”   Rarity asked, “What will we be wearing?”

       “Well, I guess we’re just going to be naked.”   Twilight answered, unsure.

       “Any more questions?”   Twilight asked.

       Nopony answered.

       “Okay.”   Twilight didn’t know what to do.

       Suddenly, the train stopped.   There was a loud screeching noise and a couple of screams.   The lights went out, and it was completely silent.   The ponies were all on the ground in a big pile.

       “What just happened?”   Applejack asked.

       “Ouch just happened,”   Rainbow Dash said painfully, “I think I broke my wing.”

       “Oh my gosh,”   Twilight said, “Spike is knocked out-cold.”

       Pinkie let out one of her loud gasps.

       “I’m going to the conductor to see what is going on.”   Twilight said.

       When Twilight got up to the conductor she asked him what was going on.

       “What happened?”   She asked.

       “Well, there are some cattle on the tracks, and we didn’t fell like having bloody wheels on our train, so we stopped.”   The conductor explained.

       “Oh, well I’ll go get Applejack to herd them off the track.”

…

       About ten minutes later, Applejack was done herding the cattle and they were back on track.

       When they finally pulled into the Canterlot station, Twilight looked at the giant clock in the station.

       “WE’RE LATE!”   Twilight screamed, “LET’S GO!”

       Everypony started running towards the movie studio, and Rainbow Dash was flying.   Suddenly, Rainbow Dash crashed to the ground.

       “OOAAAWWOH!”  Rainbow yelled painfully, “My wing!   It’s broken!”

       “Then run!   We have to get there in time!”  Twilight didn’t like to be late.

       Rainbow stayed on the ground.

       “I can’t!   It hurts too much!”   Rainbow was clutching her wing with her life.

       “Fine!   Fluttershy, Rarity, Spike, come with me!   Pinkie, Applejack, take Rainbow to the hospital!   And hurry!”   Twilight always had a plan.   “Celestia is going to kill me.”   She said to herself.

…

       Twilight and the others burst in the doors of the studio.

       “We’re here!”   They were gasping for air.

       Celestia was there.

       “Oh you’re here early.”   Celestia said.

       “What?”   Twilight was confused.

       Celestia laughed.   “It was daylight savings this morning.   You’re an hour early.”

       “Oh, thank heavens.”   Rarity was relieved.

       “Where are your other friends Twilight?”   Celestia asked.

       “Rainbow Dash broke her wing and Applejack and Pinkie took her to the hospital.”    Spike explained.

       “I hope she is alright!”   Fluttershy said.

       “That’s horrible!”   Celestia said, “Let’s go check on her; we have time.”

…

       When they got to the hospital, they asked the nurse for Rainbow Dash, and she told them she was in room 313.   Once they got there, Pinkie and Applejack were sitting aside her bed.   Rainbow Dash was sleeping.

       “Oh, hey guys!”   Pinkie said, “Good news!”

       “What?”   Fluttershy asked.

       “Her wing is not broken!   It’s just sprained.”   Pinkie exclaimed.

       “She should recover in a couple of days.”   Applejack said.

       “But what about the movie?”   Twilight asked.

       “It’s fine.  We can wait for a couple of days.”   Celestia said.

       “Okay.”   Twilight was calm again.

       The nurse came in and told them Rainbow Dash needed some rest.   They all left and went to the castle.   Celestia gave all of them a room to stay for the month that they were making the movie.   Celestia gave all of them scripts for them to read while they were waiting for Rainbow Dash to heal.   Celestia even gave Rainbow one at the hospital.   She didn’t like that she had to sing, but she couldn’t do anything about it.
