//------------------------------// // Omake The Second - Of tutus and pocket change // Story: EXECUTIONER ONE // by Hurgusburgus //------------------------------// "'Pegasi can't do ballet', indeed... I'll show her, I'll show all of them..!" Rainbow Dash grumbled to herself as she dug through the umpteenth drawer in the Carousel Boutique's storeroom. "Let's see. I know she hid it somewhere here..." Absorbed as she was in her task, she did not notice a small, shiny bug wink into existence onto a nearby windowsill. The cyan mare shoved her forelegs deeper inside the drawer, tongue lolling from her mouth in concentration. A moment later, Rainbow Dash exclaimed victoriously. "AHA! There's my tutu!" Gauge (Of course it's Gauge, who else would it be?) elected to remain silent as the pegasus shimmied deeper inside the drawer, her hindlegs kicking in excitement. "Almost... just a little further..." A couple of garments of questionable decency were tossed out. "GOTCHA!" With a triumphant cry, Rainbow shuffled out from the drawer, a bright pink tutu held in her forehooves. "Voila! Now I just..." She stood up, turning around to leave the storeroom when she froze, finally noticing Gauge. "Just..." A weak, nervous grin split the mare's face as she slowly went back to the locker, stuffing the tutu back in the half-open drawer. "Just saw this drawer open. Thought I'd close it for Rarity." She pushed the drawer shut. "See? Closed." "..." Gauge continued to stare. "Alright, what's it gonna take to make you keep this to yourself?" "Four hundred thousand bits." "What the hay?!" Rainbow's jaw hit the floor for a moment. "What do you need all that money for?" "Sensible haircut." Gauge replied. "But, failing that, I'll need about tree fiddy." It was about then that Rainbow Dash finally noticed Gauge was about ten metres tall and a plesiosaurus, to boot. "WHAT THE-" "MRUOOOOGH!"
