Final Test: Mother Mare.
Know your-- BLOODY 'ELL!
"Something wrong, Pipsqueak?" The tall mare on center stage looked about curiously, her crimson mane turning along her white wings.
I---Uh...
...Woh...
...Yer' my final test...?
"Yeah... We alright to move along?"
S-Sure thing...
...What should I call you...?
"Meh, names come and go to me. Just pick one and roll along with it."
Alright...
...uh...
Mother Mare...
...makes deals with Mephisto...
"Nnnno... I don't remember meeting anything by the name of Mephisto."
Mother Mare...
...was old when this world was young...
"Technically that's actually right."
...And it shows clearly...
"Ah, age jabs. Good one."
Mother Mare...
...would rather play with dolls than do her work...
"...Yeah... Totally would. But the dolls help me work out the work for later; so it evens out."
Mother Mare...
...is running low on PP...
"I keep my PP at a regular level thanks to regular elixir use."
Buggers...
...I can't do this...
"What's wrong?"
Well you see--
"Ah... Say no more..."
You know...?
But how do--
...Oh right...
"Don't worry... Just say one more thing."
Alright...
Mother Mare...
...eats pencils...
"OH! OW! You have got me! I am slain! Oh no... My flaws have been shown! I am defeated! No more... Please no!" The mare continued to spout out random words of pain as she wonder off the stage in a dramatic show.
...Now you know...
...Mother Mare...
...He wins...
She let him win...
Exactly...
...A host who is cunning...
...Kind...
...Knows when to back down...
...And knows how to make the target bend to his needs...
...He couldn't be any more prepared...
Perhaps so...
...So let us end this now...
I'll get the bucket...

Will you reveal who everyone is after this fic ends?
1321164 I... I thought it was obvious by now...
well that tells us who the secret boss is right?
So, Pipsqueak's final test was the Almighty Faust? Good for him.
Love the bit about the Faustian Pact... Mephistopheles is pleased...
Not Lauren Faust, I meant their boss and the other three announcers, I only figured out one of them was Trixie.
I now have no doubt who that is, but incase anyone hasn't figured it out yet... I'll stay quiet.
1321180 Uh... Again, I thought it was obvious... But yeah, I guess I could spell it out later...
Haha. Mephisto. Pip knows bout spiderman! Wohoo!
Is Mother Mare supposed to be Lauren Faust?
1321164
Well in the earlier chapters they did give you plenty of tips of who the announcers are. Even some of the chapters told you who
The almight Fausticorn. Who WON'T we see on this show?!
Fausticorn?! That's amazing!
1321232 Carrot Top...
1321244 You went there?! JK. You never gave the Doctor an episode btw.
1321261 Oh haven't I?
Why would Faust make a deal with my dog?
Please spell it out. We're not all mentally gifted. Personally my brain is like Soarin, only concerned about pie.
1321244 It was a rhetorical question...
poor pip
1321289
Bold is Discord
Underlined is, as mentioned in this chapter itself, Pipsqueak
And Italics is Queen Chrysalis
Faust!
1321326 And that was an honest answer.
So what was Mother Mare doing on a show like this, I thought she had more important things to tend to?
1321398 Like what? Raise the sun? Celestia does that. Set the night sky? Luna does that. Change the seasons? Ponies do that. Make the weather? Pegasi do that.
She has nothing to do.
1321437 And she decided to just be on this show?
Honestly if a show like this existed in Equestria and I was a pony I would avoid it like the plague because whoever goes on this show always ends up humilated sooner or later, not even Pinkie Pie the Element of Laughter could survive this show without breaking down! 
1321460 Who ever said they sign up for this show? In a chapter soon, I'll explain why anypony goes on the show...
1321474 Let me guess they're forced to do it!
1321280
If you're joking, that's the best comment here. If you're not, look up Faust, by Christopher Marlowe.
1321486 That would be too simple.
1321212 It wasn't obvious to me.... unless the boss was Fleur!
1321437 she has nothing to do? she maintains Equestria's very existence. Without her all of Equestria would fall into a dark pit of nothingness. She has to determne the fate of every living creature that lives there, from Princess Celestia to the smallest of ladybugs. She keeps time flowing. She created Canterlot, the Everfree Forest, Celestia and Luna, even the Elements of Harmony!
1321676 What about they're blackmailed into doing it or they get kidnapped?
1321562
... Fail, look up Faust by Goethe, that is the original rendition.
1321562
or you know, look up the version by Goethe, which is simply amazing.
On that note: Nice chapter, definitly didn't expect it oO
1321766 I wouldn't say that...
1321774 It's not a fail, it's a different take.
1321562 It's a joke, but my dog realy is named Mephisto
Why are there so many people unhappy with this?! I loved it! The hero(villain? The line is kinda blurry) doesn't have a for sure win, but the hero(villain? seriously, draw a line here) decided to play along. Now, uh.... how about They Grow Up?
1322188 Waiting on my proof reader... When I get my proof reads, I'll submit my next chapter. Sorry about the wait.
1322409 Dear Whatever-you-want-to-call-yourself,
Capitalization. That is all.
Signed,
Pie.
A JoCo reference and now a Pokemon one? So much win.
1321341
Before I found out how to use gifs.
1321228 I donnu.
1321766 Or she just writes out the universe with a paper and a pen.
A bucket?
1322430
Dayumn. He just got told.
If this chapter were a pie it would be a good one.
1321808
Oh, all right then. Sorry for jumping to conclusions.
1321167
)
not entirely, I'm still lost on the replacements & whoever the pink name is ("The Boss"? my guess has been Faust, but it's not to clear
1322060 Best dog-name ever
Great chapter!
