Chapter 5: Everything's starting to get complicated
“Hey is Scoots here yet?” said Dash
“Yeah. She went to the bathroom or something.” said Applejack.
Scoots came from down the hall and wrapped her arms around Rainbow, kissing her. Dash pulled away quickly.
“Oh hey.” said Dash
“Do you like them it?” asked Scoots, showing off her new mane style that looked just like Rarity’s..
“I...Yes! It looks great! It looks like you’re ready to...hit the scene?”
“Thanks!” said Scootaloo, hugging Rainbow again.
Dash looked over to Scoots, “Umm listen. I think we should--”
Scoots stared at Rainbow innocently.
“...I think... we... should set up for the show.”
----+----
“Okay listen up! As you know, we are playing a show tomorrow with Soarin’ and the Wonderbolts.” said Applejack, pulling out her chart.
Dash booed.
“Soarin’ sings and plays lead guitar.
Dash spat, “And that guy Fire Streak on bass, I hate that guy.”
Rarity was sitting down, she looked over at Rainbow, “Don’t you hate all bass players?”
“...Well I don't hate myself Rarity?”
Applejack continued, “I’ve found out they got a new drummer. Their old drummer went insane and relapsed into a coma or something.”
Dash looked up at AJ, “So who's the new stallion?” she asked.
Applejack paused, “It’s...A....Mare.”
“They got a drummer girl?!?!” yelled Rarity.
Applejack flipped her chart, “She’s their secret weapon! They call her Fleetfoot. I hear they found her playing Drum Mania at the Phillydelphia arcade. She’s got so much A.D.D it’s not even funny.”
Rarity flipped her hair, “I hate her so much.”
Dash grabbed her bass, “Well let’s start practicing, we’ve got 24 hours left!”
24 HOURS LATER:
Dash walked through the front door of Sugarcube Corner.
“Hey guys.” she said.
“Hey I ran into your sister outside.” said Derpy. “Too bad Blueblood couldn’t make it.”
“You can hang with us Derpy.” said Gilda.
“So who’s is your friend, Gilda?”
“This is Caramel.”
“Hey.” he said.
“This is my sister’s boy crazy roommate.”
“I’d resent that if it weren’t true. Nice to meet you.”
“Uh...yeah.”
“Thanks for coming Gilda. You’re like my only friend.”
“Awww...I’m always there for my little sister’s crappy band shows, you know that.”
“Didn’t you say she was like four years older than you Gilda?” said Caramel.
Gilda glared at him, “Yes. “
“Heyyy!” said Scootaloo as she walked in with her friend. (Scoots - Status: Totally Crazy)
“Oh...uhm hi,” said her friend. (Sweetie Belle- Status: Totally Scared)
Scoots lunged for Scoot, kissing her, again, to her dismay.
Dash’s friends all looked her, “Uhm, everyone...this is--”, Rainbow stopped talking.
Just then, Twilight walked into Sugar Cube Corner. (Twilight Sparkle - Status: Dash is an idiot)
Twilight was staring at Scootaloo.
Scootaloo was staring at Gilda.
Gilda was staring at Twilight.
Derpy was staring at Caramel.
Everyone turned and stared at Rainbow Dash.
“I...uhm...have to go,” she said, bolting off.
----+----
“Good evening. I am Soarin’ and these are the Wonderbolts.”
Derpy had already started drinking, “Is that girl a Wonderbolt too!” she yelled from the top floor.
Soarin’ stared up at her, “Yes.”
“So what do you think Caramel? Do they rock or suck?”
“They...they haven’t started playing yet.” said Caramel.
“That was a test, Caramel, and you passed.” said Derpy, taking another swig of her beer.
“What time did you start drinking today, Derpy? Like noon?” asked Gilda, eyeing her suspiciously.
“You’re a funny person Gilda.”
Back on stage, Soarin’ and the Wonderbolts began to play.
“This song is called, “I am so sad. So very, very sad. It goes a little something like this. ONE TWO THREE FOUR!”
The audience listened to the jagged beats.
Fluttershy was in the front row, “I...I can’t believe it...that songs was only...like--”
“4 seconds long,” said Scoots, finishing her sentence.
“You’re all too kind.” said Soarin’.
Backstage, Applejack stood with the rest of the band. “These guys are good.” she said.
“It’s not a race guys!” yelled Derpy.
“This song is for the mare that keeps yelling in the balcony and it’s called, “We hate you. Please Die.”
“Sweet! A song for me.” said Derpy.
“This song is weird.” said Sweetie Belle.
“The rhythm is so wrong.” said Scootaloo.
The members of Sonic Rainb00m sat backstage, listening to the Wonderbolts.
“This is a travesty.” said Applejack.
Rainbow Dash leaned back in her chair. “Well Scoots and Flutters are still out there. Maybe they’ll spread rumors of how we rock and people will think we rock.”
“Did you notice that Scoots started dressing like me?” said Rarity.
“What? No! Really?” said Rainbow.
“She’s like, riding my style. First she started wearing dresses and then the sttyle of her mane--”
In stage, the Wonderbolts went on, “This next song is called Zag...ONE TWO THREE FOUR!!!!”
“They’re a menace to society.” said Applejack.
“This song is called, Last song kills the audience, and it will be our last song tonight, ONE TWO THREE FOUR!!!!”
“Are they serious?” asked Rarity. .
“They can’t be serious.” said Dash.
“Nah. I’ve seen them do this before.” said Applejack. “It actually just knocks the audience out for about twenty to thirty minutes.”
Rarity grabbed Applejack. “We have to play next!”
----+----
Twilight and Gilda were in the bathroom, freshening up as the Wonderbolts played.
Twilight turned to Gilda. “So umm, are you related to Dash?”
“Rainbow Dash? Yeah I’m her sister!” said Gilda.
“Oh cool, I’m Twilight Sparkle,” said Twi.
“I’m Gilda, nice to meet you.” They walked out of the ladies room, “So how do you know Dash?” she asked.
“Oh...well he’s uhm...I friend,” said Twilight.
“Thats co--...What happened?” said Gilda.
Everyone in the front row was laying down, unconscious from the last Wonderbolts song. On the top balcony, Derpy was wrapped around Caramel as they kissed.
“DERPY!!!” yelled Gilda, “HOW DARE YOU!!!”
----+----
“Good luck, eh” said Fire Streak as he walked past Applejack, backstage. She thanked him as she stood up.
Fleetfoot had a huge grin as she bumped into to Rarity on her back out, “Goooooodd Luckkkk,” she laughed. Rarity glared at her. Sonic Rainb00m proceeded out onto the stage.
----+----
“You! Sit over there! You’re not stealing another guy from me,” said Gilda, pointing at Derpy. Derpy walked away, “Oh! And this is Dash’s friend Twilight,” said Gilda.
Recognizing the name, Derpy turned around and looked at Twi.
Sonic Rainb00m walked onto the stage.
“Arlight y’all ready” said Applejack.
Dash nodded.
Rarity grabbed her drumsticks, “We’re playing to sleeping bodies anyways,” she sighed.
Applejack smiled back at her, “Arlight, count us out,” she said.
Rarity raised her sticks, “WE ARE SONIC RAINB00M!!! ONE TWO THREE FOUR!!!”
As they started to play, somepony crashed in through the ceiling.
“Miss Rainbow! It is I! Vinyl Scratch! Consider our fight! Begun!” the unicorn yelled.
Dash stepped in front of her friends, “Guys...get off the stage!” she yelled. Vinyl Scratch flew at Dash with her hoof raised but Dash grabbed it and punch Vinyl in the face, sending her flying.
“Alright...Alright,” said Scratch standing up.
“Dash!” Derpy yelled from the balcony.
“WHAT!” yelled Dash, flying at Scratch and kicking her in the chest.
“Watchout! It’s that one pony!” Derpy slurred.
“OK THANK YOU DERPY!” Dash yelled back.
Dash uppercutted Vinyl into the air, sending her skyward.
“She’s going for the air juggle!” yelled Applejack.
“This pony is toast! Doesn't she know that Rainbow is the best fighter in the town!?!” Rarity gasped.
Dash was hammering away at Vinyl. “45, 46 , 47! Thats a new personal best Dash!” Derpy yelled. Twilight had her hooves over her face.
Vinyl Scratch fell to the floor. “So Rainbow...you’re as good as they say,” she said.
“Who the hell are you anyways!” said Dash, getting ready to fight.
“My name is Vinyl Scratch...and I am Twilight’s first evil ex!” Vinyl laughed.
Derpy looked at Twilight, who smiled innocently.
Dash blocked Vinyl’s punch. “You're fighting me because of Twilight?” she said.
“Yes!” yelled Vinyl, “Didn’t you get my email explaining the situation???”
Dash ducked underneath a well placed buck from Vinyl. “I...uh skimmed them,” she said quietly.
Scratch punched Dash and sent her flying. “I personally delivered the letter in a blizzard! You’re gonna pay!” she yelled.
Dash kicked at Scratch, “What’s with you outfit? Are you a DJ?”
Vinyl jumped over her attacks, “D...DJ’s are in this year!!!”
“So when did you date Twilight?” asked Dash, punching Vinyl’s ribs.
Scratch dodged the punches, “I don’t want to talk about it.”
Dash sent another punch at Vinyl’s head, “C’mon mare. Got any embarrassing moments?”
Vinyl caught the punch and her cheeks turned bright pink, “Y... Your mom is an embarrassing story.”
Twilight leaned over the balcony and began to tell the story. “It was Hoofball season and the jocks were all in high gear. For some reason, they all wanted me. Vinyl Scratch was the only non-stuck up, non-jock filly in school. Probably the only one for miles around or in the entire state for all I knew.” Twilight remembered kissing Vinyl outside the school. “We joined forces and took ‘em out. we too ‘em all out. We were one hell of a team. Nothing could beat Vinyl’s mystical powers, combine with my brute strength.” Nothing but preadolescent capriciousness.”
Twilight leaned farther over the balcony, “We only kissed once, and we were quits after something like a week and a half. He didn’t get really evil until high school and by that time, he was far away.
“Dude wait...mystical powers?” said Dash.
Vinyl raised her hoof, “Y-You’ll pay for this Sparkle.” Her horn began to glow and shoot beams into the air. Vinyl began to levitate as four magical demon DJ chicks appeared in front of Dash, flying besides Scratch.
Scarth began to sing, “If you want to fight me....You’re the not the brightest.”
Rainbow Dash and the rest of Sonic Rainb00m got on stage. Dash raised her hoof at Vinyl, “You won't even know what hit you in the slightest.”
“Fireballs mares,” Vinyl commanded, as her and the DJ chicks began shooting fireballs towards Dash and her friends, “Take these suckers out!
“Let me tell you what we’re all about.” said Dash. Her and her friends crossed their arms and defended against the fiery attacks.
“You and your fireballs, and your demon hipster chicks, you're talking the talk and it's all pretty slick! You think you’re so great but you're missing the point! You gotta have friendship and courage or.... whatever!” Dash yelled.
Vinyl laughed, “That doesn't even rhyme!”
“Shut up!” Dash yelled again, her voice knocking back Vinyl and her DJ chicks.
“This is impossible....how can this be???” she whispered as she fell from the air.
Dash flew at her full speed, releasing all her force from her hoof onto Vinyl’s forehead. “Open your eyes....Maybe....you’ll...SEE!”
Scratch fell against the floor, bursting into coins and bits. Dash picked them up, “Sweet, bits.”
Twilight came up from behind Dash, “How much did she leave?” she asked.
“Awh what dude, 2$? That’s not even enough for the subway home!” complained Dash.
Twilight crossed her arms, “Come on, I’ll lend you the 50 cents.”
Dash perked up, she grabbed Twilights hoof and made a dash to the back door, “Sweet! Hey, let’s get out of here before people get mad at me!”
Later On....
“So...do you wanna sort of go out with me?” Dash asked Twilight, blushing.
“Yeah okay,” she said smiling.
Dash sat there awkwardly, “Do you wanna make out?”
Twilight laughed, “Sure.”
The two mares kissed passionately for a couple seconds.
Dash moved away from Twi, “So that mare Vinyl Scratch? You guys used to date or whatever right?”
Twilight looked away, “Yeah, about that. I guess you’re going to have to defeat my seven evil exes if you want to date me.”
“Seven evil exes...?” Dash said.
“Six or Seven.”
Rainbow smiled, “Well I guess I’m okay with that.”
Twilight and Rainbow kissed again. “So this girl Celestia....is she one of them?” Dash asked.
Twilights entire head began to glow a vibrant green as she stared out the window.
Dash stuttered, “Uhm...your head..your...uhm. Are you alright?”
Twilight ignored Dash, her head still glowing.
“Do you still want to go out with me?”
“YES!” said Twilight sternly.
Dash stared out her window.
