Rainbow Dash lives an exciting life and is swiftly becoming the most daring, awesome pegasus in all of Equestria. She would gladly give it all up, though, just to confess her love to Applejack.
The unicorn blinked atop her levitating wheel platform.
“Sunset Shimmer!” she barked.
Rainbow continued to squint. “Who?!?”
“Sunset Shi—snkkkt!” She snarled, leaning over with a frown. “Doesn't Princess Celestia ever talk about me?!”
“Why? Is her dog missing?”
“I was her special apprentice for three years!”
“And you ended up in this place?!”
“She suffocated me with ridiculous notions of friendship and harmony!”
“Obviously not enough, since you're still breathing.”
“Celestia is the reason my magical potential was persistently held back!” Sunset Shimmer growled. She shook a hoof while more and more wheels rotated around her. “I could have become Equestria's Sorceress Supreme! I could have ascended to take the throne of Luna the Betrayer! Tartarus, given enough time and study, I too could have become a Princess!”
“Hah!” Rainbow grinned. “That would be rich!”
Daring smirked over at her. “Who ever heard of a unicorn sprouting wings?!”
“Hey!” Rainbow cackled. “It's 'Alicorn Discount Week' at Barnyarn Bargains!”
“Yeah! Haha! Be the first fifty to arrive and win a free tiara!”
“Snkkkt—Heeheehee!”
“Grrrrrrr!” Sunset slammed her hooves, causing the central axes of every wheel to flicker “I refuse to believe that none of you have ever heard of me!”
“Sorry, girl,” Rainbow droned. “But I can't recognize the face. Maybe if... I dunno... you put on sexy glasses or something?”
“Oooh! Ooooh!” Pinkie waved a hoof. “I've heard of you! Me me me!”
“Finally!” Sunset pointed with a grin. “Somepony with some decent taste—”
“Oops! I'm sorry!” Pinkie blushed, teeth grinning. “I-I was thinking of 'Sunset Sarasparilla!' Heeheehee—Snkkkt! That stuff's good!”
“At least my sister's got the 'decent taste' part right.”
“Grrrrrrrr!”
“Wheeeeeeels...” Trixie drooled. Rainbow pushed her aside as she stepped up to the edge of their platform.
“Okay, look, Straight Shota—”
“Sunset SHIMMER!”
“...whatever.” Rainbow cleared her throat. “You do realize that glimmering tail-thingy in your grasp is really a death trap waiting to happen, right?!”
“Pfft! What do you mean?!” Sunset spun the granite statue piece around her with a wicked grin. “I've never felt more empowered! With this at my disposal, all of Equestria will bow down to its one destined ruler!”
“Yeah, you said that part already! But listen!” Rainbow frowned. “Being around that chaos thingy is only going to corrupt you! Like... super hard!”
“You telling me she's not already corrupt?!” Daring gawked. “Look at that... th-that thing! Yellow coat. Red hair?! If you gave her orange eyes, a pony would be liable to pull a wagon up to her and ask for burgers and hay fries!”
“You see?!” Sunset pointed. “It's insolence such as this that I wish to crush under my boot!”
“Boot?!”
“Hoof! Whatever! Look, peasants, I've been to places, you hear?!”
“Your mouth certainly knows some mileage.”
“And, quite frankly, I don't care what adverse effects the key to my victory may have on me!” Sunset grinned wickedly. “With this sort of power at my control, so what if I lose my previous form?! I will have evolved... and Equestria will undergo a glorious transformation with me!”
“...through wheels,” Daring muttered.
“Well it certainly beats my first plan!”
“Which was what exactly?”
“Teenage high school zombies from another dimension!”
Rainbow opened her mouth... fumbled for words... and ultimately said. “Look, I think there's been a mixup.” She pointed at Trixie and her glowing eyes. “We were the ones who rolled in here with a living vegetable. What's your excuse?”
“Bah!” Sunset hissed. “Scoff all you want! Don't make me turn succubus on you!”
“Lady, you're a peach and a half!” Rainbow grumbled. “And I've chewed on bigger and baddier baddies than you in my sleep! So why don't you get off your high... d'uhm... wheel?!”
“Yeah!” Daring frowned. “Just how in the hay do you even plan on taking over Equestria with big dumb rock wheels anyway?”
“Just. Like. THIS!” And with a pulsating beam from her horn, she commanded four wheels to sail down at the platform.
The four ponies instantly ducked, with Maud yanking down Trixie at the last second. SMASSSSSSSSH! A chunk of stone and cave rock exploded behind them.
“Woohoo!” Pinkie hopped to her hooves. “Dodgedisc! I love it!”
Meanwhile, Rainbow was glaring at Daring. “You just had to ask, didn't you?!”
“Yeah, and?!” Daring shrugged. “I needed to flesh out the villain's motivation for the third act of my book!”
“Oh, for the love of fuzz!” Rainbow snarled. “I am going to buck you sideways with a chainsaw!”
“I'm not that easy!”
“The rocks of death return,” Maud droned, her voice swiftly cut off by the whistling wind of muderous wheels sailing at them.
“Run away!” Rainbow hollered, and all four ponies scampered off under the sound of Sunset's maniacal cackling.
Only Trixie remained, teetering and drooling. Maud zipped back, calmly grasped both of Trixie's shoulders, and hoisted her off in time to avoid more pounding discs.
TH-THUDD!

Um... never mind.
Man, I love your Maud. Too perfect.
I see what you did there.
...I think I see what you might be doing here.
(also, I'm starting to cringe every time I type any variation of that memetic response...)
Wow...for once, they're not trying to tear each other's throats out.
WHOA, THERE.
I think I sprained an ankle on all that meta.
Sorry. All I could think of was
I like it. It's silly.
She plans to take over Equestria with magic wheels by throwing them at ponies!?
Wow her plans really suck. She's ambitious, but has something of a dearth of creative imagination.
... Well I'm off to Barnyard Bargains. Princess Fishberry has plans too.
so, sunset shimmer is being ridiculous, the final boss fight is in full comedy mode, and EQG is canon here. is that bad?
nah. it's fine. Well, maybe except for the EQG part. But I can just pretend that's a joke and not actually part of the lore and move on. And I think this story excels at comedy much more so than at Action, so no complains there.
5183320 Okay, I know this is really late, but I'm catching up on the story.
I couldn't help but notice not only the references to you in this chapter...
(Chapter title: Rowing Boats Red)
(referencing your icon)
Okay, if you caught this, I feel like an idiot, but no one said anything, so... yeah. There you go.
...
...
Okay, let me stop you right there and tell you this, Sunset.
Shut the hell up.
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter
This reminds me of something: Celestia knew when Luna was getting out. I mean, she was probably crossing each of those 365,000 days off on the calendar. So I'm almost sure that she took a personal student specifically to deal with Nightmare Moon.
Can you imagine her frustration? "Oh me, this one's evil too? Darn, now I have to train up another one. And it's almost moon-o'-clock, too; cutting it kind of close here."
I have terminally lost my ability to even.

I surrender.
