28th March 20XX,

In the late evening; Fluttershy and her friends - Terrorcreep, Sour Sweet, Angel, Naughty Harry Squirrel and Mouse, were on their way back home after they had a long picnic.

"I'm so sorry I lost track of time at our picnic." Fluttershy apologized, "I didn't mean for us to get caught out here after dark." 

Terrorcreep smiled, "I don't mind it. I liked dark than the bright light."

Sour Sweet nodded while looking sweetly and cutely, "Yeah. I like night time. It makes me so good mood! And of course, the forest isn't that scary too."

Fluttershy hummed and nodded thoughtfully, "You do make a point, Sour Sweet. It is the same as the forest during the day." She then looked around of her surroundings. It was darker and scary than before. She gulped before smiled uneasily, "Only... darker."

Harry whined fearfully as he ducked down and slide over his owner and friends. The bear began has his teeth chattering fearfully.

"Ah... Don't tell me you're scared," Sour Sweet asked in amusement. She grabbed and glared at Harry, "Don't tell me, stupid bear!"

"Easy now, Sour Sweet. We should hurry back to the cottage." Fluttershy said calmly.

WHOOSH! Everyone yelped in surprise as they looked around of dark forest in finding the source of noise. They found nothing.

"What was that?!" Sour Sweet asked in shock.

Fluttershy smiled slyly a bit, "Don't tell me you're scared, Sour Sweet."

Sour Sweet groaned sourly, "Not funny!"

"Everyone, remain calm!" Terrorcreep said firmly, "There's nothing to worry about. No reason to..."

WHOOSH! Fluttershy and her friends looked around again. They suddenly heard some eerie wailing. They slowly turned to their back where they found a shadowy figure with crimson eyes.

Fluttershy gasped, "W-What's that?!"

Sour Sweet gulped, "I don't think I'm gonna like this one!"

"Run..." Terrorcreep said in concern. He turned to his friends. He screamed, "Ruuun!"

Did what Terrorcreep told them to do, Fluttershy and her friends turned and headed off at once. The Mystic Vampire turned to the front while armed with his Dual Thunder Axes. He screamed in anger while charging straight into the dark forest. 

By the time Terrorcreep entered the dark forest, the reddish eyes disappeared. Nevertheless, he continued searching and hunting down his prey.

Fluttershy and her friends continued running as fast as they can. And at the same time, they panted and gasped heavily. However, they stopped at once upon encountering and looking at the creature with crimson eyes emerging from the misty dark forest. It then flew up to the sky as it glared at its targets. They all looked worry and scared.

ROARED! SCREAMED! Terrorcrep heard the noise from his search on prey. He gasped in realization and worry.

"Fluttershy! Noooooooo!"

Terrorcreep abandoned his search as he flew straight to his friends on the front. He found Harry held and hugged Fluttershy tightly. Sour Sweet, stood in front of her friends, ready to fight and yet she looked frighten. He quickly moved to the top and ready to attack. And just before anypony could do anything...

LAUGH! The ponies looked confuse as the moonlight slowly shed some lights on creature. It revealed to be Rainbow Dash dressed with clouds on hooves and neck, and two pieces of wood as her beak-like. They were in shock yet annoyed of what they just saw.

"Gotcha!"

Rainbow Dash laughed very hard and loud as she slowly descended to the ground. Fluttershy continued hyperventilating while he friends were glaring at the cyan Pegasus.

"Rainbow Dash?!" Sour Sweet demanded in shock. She groaned in anger, "Why I ought-ta!"

"That wasn't funny!" Fluttershy exclaimed in anger, "You really scared us! I hope you're happy."

Terrorcreep hissed, "Shame on you!"

Rainbow Dash scoffed, "Nope. Fluttershy, you're too easy. You're scared of everything."

"That's not true." Fluttershy protested.

And just before they could do anything, Rainbow Dash make a funny face and shouted, "Boo!"

Fluttershy yelped as she jumped off and landed on Terrorcreep's arms for holding. As she quivered and shivered in fear, her friends gave the angry glare at Rainbow Dash, who shrugged in amusement.

"Rainbow Dash, you really are son of bitch!" Terrorcreep remarked dryly.





29th March 20XX,

After some serious stunt Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy summoned all of her friends in holding a meeting about the daredevil pony's pranks. Mane Six and Spike were sitting down on their seats while Dragon Strike Force, Starlight Glimmer and Sunset Shimmer were standing up.

"How could you not appreciate that?" Rainbow Dash asked happily.

Fluttershy groaned, "Because I don't think being scared is very fun!"

Terrorcreep nodded in agreement, "That kind of prank was bloody stupid, Rainbow Dash! You could have hurt someone!"

"Aw, come on, guys!" Pinkie Pie insisted happily, "Being scared is fun! Your heart gets all racy and your hooves get all tingly! They're great!"

"See? Everypony likes a good prank! They're just jokes!" Rainbow Dash remarked in amusement. Aquastroke gave a hard punch on her head. She yelped in pain, "Ow! What the heck?!"

"Rainbow Dash! That wasn't 'ha-ha' prank! That was cruel joke!" Aquastroke exclaimed in anger.

Terrorcreep snarled, "It really is, Aqua! It pains her a lot!"

Rarity nodded in agreement, "Everypony has things they like and things they don't."

"And scarin' Fluttershy is just lazy." Applejack remarked in anger.

Rainbow Dash was stunned, Twilight Sparkle added while comforted Fluttershy, "A prank isn't very good if you're the only pony laughing."

"And you're lucky that you're not in military," Sunset Shimmer said in concern, "Because if you do a prank, they'll do some serious punishment for you to take."

Starlight Glimmer hissed, "Or worse. Dark Curse or any of his Demon Generals could have done some serious twisted experiment on you, Rainbow Dash. Better not take things likely."

"But what if it's really, really, really, really, really funny?" Pinkie Pie asked happily

Rainbow Dash smirked proudly, "And I can do funny."

"I'm not sure if scaring ponies really defines 'funny'," Flash Sentry said uneasily.

Shadow Dragon shook his head firmly, "No, it doesn't, Flash. And I really hate jokes and pranks. They've always irritated and annoyed me a lot."

"Yeah. And the worse thing about you doing this," Saber Dragoon said calmly, "You kicked their asses very hard."

"That happens to me once," Laxtinct cringed, "Man, that really hurts..."

"I know you can." Twilight Sparkle said calmly as she was passing Rainbow Dash by, "I guess the trick is making sure that your idea of funny matches the pony you're pranking."

As Rainbow Dash was stifling giggle, Twilight Sparkle took her seat. As she did, a loud yet prolonged fart noise sounded and echoed in the Chamber of Friendship. Everyone but Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie were in shock and silent.

After the fart noise has silenced, both Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie laughed at once while Twilight Sparkle levitated a whoopee cushion out from her seat. Everyone was annoyed by the latest joke Rainbow Dash has pulled.

"Good one, Rainbow! Ha-ha!" Pinkie Pie laughed, "You have to admit! That was funny!"

Twilight Sparkle groaned, "Not really."

"A whoopee cushion? Really?" Blazefist asked dryly, "That was very lame and low of you now."

"What?!" Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie asked in shock.

"Rainbow Dash, you'd better keep your pranks and jokes to minimum now, just before 1st April." Shadow Dragon said dryly and darkly, "We don't want to attract wrong attention."

Shorty Thinking hissed in anger, "I really hate that day especially if the jokes is overkill."

"What? Scared that I may prank you, like what I did to Twilight?" Rainbow Dash asked in amusement.

Twilight Sparkle gave a glare at Rainbow Dash, "It is still not funny, Rainbow Dash."

Shadow Dragon sighed, "No. It's Jokelypse Day!"

Dragon Strike Force gasped in shock and worry while Mane Eight and Flash Sentry were in confuse and curious. They all chatted and muttered in concern about it.

Laxtinct yelped, "Not the Jokelypse Day! Not the Jokelypse Day!"

Rainbow snickered, "'Jokelpyse Day'? Now I know you made that up. April 1st is April Foals Day, every pony knows that!"

Shadow Dragon groaned, "It is not a joke, Rain..."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Rainbow Dash interrupted while holding her hoof up, "Talk to the hoof because the Dash doesn't wanna hear it anymore."

"Would you just shut #%^& up, Rainbow Dash?!" Shadow Dragon shouted in anger, scaring everyone. He continued, "Jokelypse Day is the most terrible and unforgiving event of April Fool Day. Designed and created by none other than Psychopath Joke."

Everyone gasped in shock and surprise.

Shorty Thinking nodded, "He's right. The more jokes and pranks ponies have pulled in one town, the deadlier and darker Psychopath Joke becomes. And there's no telling what kind of sick jokes and pranks he come up with. He will bring the hell on a town. And the next thing, you know, the whole town is dead while he gets the last laugh."

"That doesn't sound nice..." Fluttershy commented.

Terrorcreep shook his head, "No, it's not, Fluttershy. It's tragic and deadly."

"You'd better stop this now, Rainbow Dash before it's too late," Tailtech said dryly."

Rarity nodded, "If you are not willing to put forth the effort required to pull a prank that everypony can enjoy, you may as well not pull one at all."

"Uh... I don't think that's a good way to tell her off," Icy said in concern.

Shocked and angered by her friends'complains and comments, Rainbow Dash groaned, "Fine! If you ponies want effort, then that's just what you'll get."

And just before anypony could react, Rainbow Dash exited and flew off at once. Her friends were in concern of what she's going to do.

"I'm not sure she understood what we meant." Twilight Sparkle said in concern.

Shadow Dragon sighed, "Well,she'd better not screw it up."

Everyone chatted in agreement. And unknown to any of them, a small periscope emerged from a cup of prone juice as it saw everything. Psychopath Joke now knows everything...





At Carousal Boutique, Rarity was talking with both Sweetie Belle and Sunny Flare about Filly Guide Cookie Drive as they entered the room.

"I know you're excited about the Filly Guide Cookie Drive," Rarity said calmly, "but I still have to do a few finishing touches on your uniform."

"Don't you mean make another uniform?" Sunny Flare asked in concern. Rarity looked at her. She pointed up at the front, "Cause it's on top of big three layered cake."

Rarity and Sweetie Belle followed Sunny Flare's direction. They both looked surprise and shock as well. The Filly Guide Cookie Drive uniform was on placed on top of big three layered cake. Both Rarity and Sunny Flare were speechless while Sweetie Belle was amazed. As three ponies approached the cake, a filly took a scoop of cake's cream before taking the bite.

"Hmm. Not bad." Sweetie Belle commented.

"Check this out," Sunny Flare said as she picked the card out from the cake's side. She read it out loud, "'You've asked for it'. Okay, what does it mean?"

Rarity hummed thoughtfully yet suspiciously, "Hmm. I assume this is Dash's idea of a prank, which can only mean she's rigged some kind of booby trap to your Filly Guide uniform up there."

"So, how do we get it down?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"We don't. If Dash thinks I'm going to fall for whatever she's got in mind, she's got another thing coming." Rarity said confidently. She turned to Sunny Flare, "Like you said, my faithful assistant, we make another uniforms. There's more of them where that one came from! Sunny Flare, prepare the fabric now!"

Sunny Flare saluted as she brought the yellow fabric out from the cupboard. Rarity is now close to her table with fashion equipment as she prepared her sewing machine. As her faithful assistant passed it to her boss, the white unicorn began activating the machine.

Instead of working, the sewing machine broke into pieces. Its interior of machine was actually a cake. While Rarity and Sunny Flare was stunned by it, Sweetie Belle took a bite of cake.

"Hmm. The sewing machine cake is actually better than the cake cake." Sweetie Belle commented.

Sunny Flare sighed, "Here comes the angry part."

"Rainbow Dash!" Rarity screamed in anger.

Hearing the laughter, Rarity and her friends turned to their back. They found Rainbow Dash was laughing in amusement and happily.

"Gotcha! Ha-ha! How's that for effort?" 

Rainbow Dash continued laughing as she flew off at once. Rarity and Sunny Flare were annoyed by it while Sweetie Belle continued eating the sewing machine cake.





In night time, Applejack was setting a trap with jingling bells and pans attached to ropes everywhere and even the bucket of water in her bedroom. Sugarcoat and Apple Bloom came across to her bedroom.

"What's all this, Applejack?" Apple Bloom asked in shock, "I thought you were gonna help me get ready for the Filly Guide Cookie Drive."

"Uh, yeah, sorry about that." Applejack apologized as she was making a final check of her traps, "But Rainbow Dash has been on a prankin' tear, and you can never be too careful."

"Do you really think Dash is gonna try and prank you in your sleep?" Apple Bloom asked.

"You also shouldn't underestimating her abilities," Sugarcoat advised, "According to the records of Rainbow Dash's abilities, she's very skillful in both speed and stealth. And therefore, I don't think this kind of trap could stop her."

Applejack huffed, "Not if I have anythin' to say about it. See ya in the mornin', sugarcube."

And just before Sugarcoat and Apple Bloom could protest, Applejack turned off her lamppost. She then went to bed. Instead of arguing, both of them headed off and gone to bed now. She slept it whole night.

In the next morning, Applejack was still sleeping peacefully, though she heard some oinking and crowing noise.

"Uh... AJ, why are you sleeping at pigpen?" Caramel asked.

Surprised of the question, Applejack quickly got up at once as she found herself that she was standing on her bed in the middle of pigpen. Caramel was outside of the fence. And just before she could do anything, the rooster crowed out loud, causing her to lose balance and fell into pig mud. Caramel entered and helped Applejack up.

"AJ, are you okay?" Caramel asked in concern.

Applejack groaned, "I'm fine. How did I get here?"

"Ha! Still think I'm lazy?" Rainbow Dash asked. Both Applejack and Caramel looked up and found her flying above them. She threw pans on their faces, causing them to fell down by back. She smirked, "Gotcha!"

Rainbow Dash laughed while commented 'Pigpen' as she flew away from her friends.

Applejack grunted in anger, "Rainbow Dash!"

SPLASH! The mud poured over both Applejack and Caramel as the pigs were playing the mud happily.

Caramel groaned, "You know what? I really hate that mare."





30th March 20XX...

However, it wasn't just Rarity and Applejack that Rainbow Dash has pull a prank on. She did the same thing on others and even her own friends as well.

Rainbow Dash replaced the wig to skunk for Cranky Doodle Donkey to wear but get farted on him and his wife, Matilda. She tricked Spike by pouring scrolls down one-by-one, making him to blew a greenish flame in delivering it to Princess Ember. She put a giant boulder on Big McIntosh's wagon, pulling him down from climbing the hill. She replaced the hayburger with brick for Mr. Cake to eat. She even make a big mess on pot that was made by Zecora. Rainbow Dash even drew a picture of Cheerilee being 'stinky' teacher for students.

Rainbow Dash pulled both Starlight Glimmer's and Sunset Shimmer's tails hard, causing them both to attack each other fiercely in their library. She messed up Lemon Zest's music, making her deaf and screamed in pain. She rammed pile of leaves Sugarcoat has just cleaned up, making the latter angry to redo. She poured animals' manure on the angry screaming Sour Sweet. She tricked Indigo Zap in knocked a hard stone disguised as clouds. She turned machines in ruining Carousal Boutique for Sunny Flare to handle it.

Rainbow Dash make Drake Trio fighting each other off over the missing bugs. She messed the art, making Shiroi Bai cried in upset and anger. She knocked on both Steel Blaze and Red Arsenal by heads, making them to attack each other during the training. She even moved the pie around Lance Justicestrike, making him annoyed and angered in chasing it down.

Rainbow Dash stranded Laxtinct in deep of Everfree Forest, causing him to scream in fear because he hates camping. She tricked Aquastroke in showing that Blazefist was dating with Asami, making both couples in attacking and fighting each other fiercely. She popped the paper bag to explode, making both Shorty Thinking and Tailtech to use magic before they get blasted by their Anti Magical Guns. She ruined Icy's cooks, making everyone screamed in pain while vomiting out sickly. She tricked Terrorcreep in eating garlic, instead of his strawberries breakfast. She replaced the perfume in making Saber Dragoon to talk like a chipmunk.  Flash Sentry got tripped by a banana peel as he was thrown straight into garbage very hard. 

Shadow Dragon was the only pony, who has yet get pranked. Rainbow Dash tried everything but he was too quick and alerted. However, as he read the notes about Twilight Sparkle wanted him on her bed, he headed off but slipped by a mud. He was heading straight out of the window before falling straight down to the pile of fishes, which was Dragoking's food.

Unknown to her, Rainbow Dash was being watched during making the pranks. A periscope from the water fountain has witnessed the event.





In the room of messy circus equipment and tools, Psychopath Joke was watching the event on mortal realm, with the use of his periscope. He chuckled in amusement.

"Ooh! Well, what do you know?" Psychopath Joke asked in amusement. He chuckled a bit, "Looks like I found a perfect place for my party.

"Really?" A yellowish Earth Pony with red, blue and black streaks of mane and tail entered the scene while bringing teacup of blood for drinking, "So, what's your biggest prank plans, Mister PJ?"

Psychopath Joke turned to her as he chuckled evilly, "Oh, Harley Witch. One that no one is gonna die to forget. And I mean it literally! I just need to hear what our little friend's planning on April Fools Day. It's Jokelypse Day!"

Harley Witch smirked, "This is gonna be good."





At Sugarcube Corner, Pinkie Pie was preparing the cupcakes for sells. As she turned to the front, she yelped upon looking at not just her friends but ponies and creatures in Ponvyille Town. They were all angry and annoyed.

"Pinkie! We need your help." Pinkie Pie exclaimed in anger.

Pinkie Pie smiled, "Okay! For what?"

"Pinkie Pie! This is serious!" Shadow Dragon exclaimed in anger, "Don't you know what Rainbow Dash has been doing especially pranking?!"

"Oh, no! She's been pranking up a storm!" Pinkie Pie giggled happily.

"Dudette, did she get you, too?" Lemon Zest asked in concern.

Pinkie Pie laughed happily, recalling what Rainbow Dash and Gummy did to her, "Oh, yeah! She and Gummy both! They got me good."

"Guess what? Pinky. Her pranks are way out of control!" Indigo Zap exclaimed in anger.

"She needs to stop this now," Shadow Dragon exclaimed in anger.

Twilight Sparkle nodded, "It doesn't seem like Dash is taking the time to find out who enjoys them and who doesn't."

Everyone grumbled in anger about Rainbow Dash's pulling pranks on them. They're very annoyed and angry about it.

"Uh, since you and Dash share such an, uh, affinity for pranking, we thought you might be able to get her to, um, uh..." Rarity said calmly to Pinkie Pie before shouted, "quit it!"

"If she doesn't, he'll be here and began his Jokelypse Day." Shorty Thinking said firmly, "And it's no joke either."

Everyone nodded and chatted in agreement. This makes Pinkie Pie uncomfortable and uneasy about it. But she also knew that they're not in good mood with jokes.





Pinkie Pie arrived at Rainbow Dash as she called out. Her best friend emerged from the window while looking at her.

Rainbow Dash smiled, "Pinkie, hey! I actually have something totally important to tell you!"

"You do?" Pinkie Pie asked, "Ooh! You go first!"

Rainbow Dash flew down as she asked, "Okay, you know how I've been pranking everypony?"

"Yeah!" Pinkie Pie giggled, "It's been pretty funny!" She yelped in realization, "I-I-I mean, actually, that's what I have to talk to you about."

Taking a cookie box out, Rainbow Dash smiled while passing it to Pinkie Pie, "Here. Have a cookie."

"Ooh! Thanks!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed as she took a bite on a cookie,

"So, I got to thinking – why waste my time pranking everypony one at a time when I could prank everypony at once?"

"Mmm, wow! Everypony at once?! That sounds amazing!" Pinkie Pie remarked but stopped in realization, "Gah, wait! I mean, it's not."

"You don't even know what it is yet! Pinkie, this is gonna be the best prank ever! I special ordered these joke cookies so the colors would match my mane."

"And?"

"And I'm gonna switch them with the Filly Guide cookies." Rainbow Dash explained put another cookie into Pinkie Pie's mouth, caused some rainbow colors on her mouth. She continued, "When Scootaloo and her friends sell them, everypony in town's gonna get a rainbow mouth courtesy of Rainbow Dash! Ha-ha! It's gonna be so awesome!"

Pinkie Pie looked uneasy and concern, "Uh, I don't know. I mean, it doesn't really seem all that funny."

"What?!"

"Maybe this is a good time to stop pranking for a while. The other ponies in town really—"

Rainbow Dash demanded as she pushed the cookie box to Pinkie Pie, "Stop?! No way! This prank is happening, Pinkie! And it's gonna be hilarious!"

"But what about Jokelypse Day? Psychopath Joke?"

"Oh puh-lease! Knowing Shadow Dragon hates jokes, he tried to scare me off. Well, that's not gonna work on me. And tomorrow is 1st April. I'm not gonna miss making the best prank ever!"

And just before Pinkie Pie could tell, Rainbow Dash flew off back to her home. Instead of talking with daredevil pony, she continued eating her cookies. However, after a few cookies she ate, she giggled a bit while her pupils slowly minimize.

And unknown tot Pinkie Pie, Psychopath Joke and Harley Witch watched the event behind the trees. They both laughed evilly and darkly. The mad clown pony has his smile widened widely.





1st April 20XX...

Rainbow Dash was flying straight to Sugarcube Corner as she was looking and calling for Pinkie Pie. She hasn't seen her friend whole morning as she was doing her 'preparation'. Mr and Mrs. Cakes pointed up the stairs, where Pinkie Pie was.

"Pinkie, what's the deal?" Rainbow Dash demanded as she climbed up the stairs. She entered Pinkie Pie's room, "I told you I needed your help switching out all the Filly Guide cookies for the joke cookies. But when you didn't show, I had to do it all by myself!"

However, Rainbow Dash found no reply but silence. And just before she could ask, she heard some coughing and laughing noise. She turned and found Pinkie Pie, lying down on her bed while being covered by a blanket. Her friend turned and looked at her. Pinkie Pie was very grayish while looking very sick but unusual of her was smiling with teeth and rainbow color jam covered on her mouth.

"Wow..." Rainbow Dash said in surprise, "Your face is still pretty rainbowed. What's with the smile?"

"Yeah, I haven't really," Pinkie Pie coughed and laughed strangely, "been feeling well. And these joke cookies are the only thing that makes me feel better." She turned to her joke cookie box. She found it empty. She growled as she turned and glared at Rainbow Dash, with the angry tone of Psychopath Joke, "You don't have any more, do you?!"

"Uh, no. I just told you, I used them all for the prank. And what's with your voice?"

"Oh. Actually, I don't know. It's funny and strange to have Mark Hamill's voice in me. I'd always want to act like him as the Joker."

"Uh yeah. Pretty soon, the CMCs will start selling them to everypony in town. Ponies will open their boxes and start eating, then all of their teeth will turn rainbow-colored, and they'll know it was me! It's gonna be so awesome!" Rainbow Dash commented happily as she tried pulling and dragging Pinkie Pie out of her bed, "C'mon, you don't wanna miss it!"

"Actually..." Pinkie Pie coughed and laughed at the same time again, "I don't think I can even... stand... up..." She then gave the glare at Rainbow Dash with evil Dark Mystic Clown's voice, "Unless you've got more cookies!"

Rainbow Dash yelped as she flew away from Pinkie Pie, "On second thought, maybe you better stay here and rest."

Pinkie Pie sighed, "Yeah. You're right. Sorry to miss out. I'm sure it's gonna be hilarious."

Even though she was upset and sick, Pinkie Pie's smile with rainbow color gives Rainbow Dash a creep. But decided not to bother about it, she has to go with her prank plans now...





At Sweet Apple Acres, All five Cutie Mark Crusaders worn their Filly Guide Cookie Drive uniforms while Applejack, Rarity and even Rainbow Dash gathered and put all of the cookies on the cart. Everything is set for selling the cookies.

Rainbow Dash smiled as she turned to Cutie Mark Crusaders, "All right, who's ready to sell some cookies?"

Five Cutie Mark Crusaders cried, "Me!"

"Look here, Rainbow Dash. I know you promised Scootaloo you'd help out," Applejack said dryly while glaring at Rainbow Dash, "but I don't want none of your pranks ruinin' these fillies' night."

"I agree. And plus, you don't want to upset Nyx, or else you have to deal with Shadow Dragon's, Twilight's or Dragoking's temper again." Rarity added in, "You know how angry they can really be."

"Look, I'll be with you the whole night so you can totally keep an eye on me." Rainbow Dash insisted.

"Come on, Applejack! Let's get started!" Apple Bloom insisted.

Scootaloo nodded, "Yeah! We've got a lot of ground to cover!"

"We wanna hit every house in Ponyville!" Sweetie Belle added happily.

Alyson Joy giggled, "The cookies won't sell to customers by themselves."

"Let's make the best out of it!" Nyx cheered.

As five Cutie Mark Crusaders carried the wagon of cookies, they headed off at once.

Rainbow Dash smiled as she turned to both Rarity and Applejack, "Come on! You heard her! Every house in Ponyville!"

As suspicious and concern Rarity and Applejack has for their prankster friend, they have to agree with her that they have to help Cutie Mark Crusaders in selling the cookies. As two sisters headed off, Rainbow Dash laughed softly while flying and following them. However, two familiar clown ponies emerged from the bushes while smiling evilly.

"There goes to my invitations to my new happy guests. Hehehehahaha!"





And so, Cutie Mark Crusaders went around the Ponyville Town in delivering the cookies to them. However, there were some ponies and creatures were keeping their sharp eyes on Rainbow Dash, so she won't be up to her old tricks on pranks such as Flash Sentry, Sour Sweet, Harry the Bear, Drake Trio, Steel Blaze, Red Arsenal, Indigo Zap and her family, Tailtech, Shadow Dragon and Dragoking.

Despite some ponies putting their guards up, Cutie Mark Crusaders manage sold and delivered their cookies to their customers one-by-one. After delivering a lot of cookies, Rainbow Dash secretly laughed in amusement that her master plan is coming true...

In the evening, Cutie Mark Crusaders decided to call it off for selling so many cookies. Applejack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash approached them.

"I think you three should be real proud. Y'all did a mighty impressive job for your first go-'round." Applejack congratulated the fillies. She turned to Nyx and Alyson Joy, "Your family would be proud of it too."

Rarity nodded, "You took the words right out of my mouth, Applejack. Isn't that right, Rainbow Dash?"

Rainbow Dash didn't respond as she was looking at the site of Ponyville Town. She whispered amusingly, "Any minute now..."

"Uh... 'any minute now' what?" Applejack asked in concern.

"Huh? Oh, uh, nothing!" Rainbow Dash denied. She turned and looked at the town again as she found something suspicious about it. It was too quiet, though she heard some feint laugh. She hummed in concern, "Have you guys noticed how quiet it's gotten? I mean, it's still early, right?"

"Of course it's quiet. Ponies can't talk while they're eating those fabulous cookies, heh." Rarity commented.

"You think?" Rainbow Dash asked in concern.

Rarity nodded, "Of course. They're probably all in a cookie coma right now."

"Huh... Maybe you're right." Rainbow Dash said in uncertain, "I'll go check."

Rainbow Dash flew around the Ponyville Town. But so far, she found no sign of ponies but also heard feint laughs, which she doesn't like it. She looked worry and uneasy.

"What is going on?" Rainbow Dash asked while looking at the window. She found some bites of cookies, "There's definite cookie-eating happening. But... where is everypony?" 

She hummed uneasy, "They must have seen their rainbow mouths by now... They should all be running out into the streets! Unless everypony went to bed early but why do I heard some laughter?"

"Maybe I should check on Pinkie," Rainbow Dash said in concern.

Rainbow Dash flew off to Sugarcube Corner. But unknown to her, Psychopath Joke and Harley Witch emerged from the shadows while smiling evilly.

"Harley, let the Jokelypse Party begin..."

"Gotchat! Mr. PJ!"





Entering Pinkie Pie's bedroom window, Rainbow Dash looked around of the room as she found no signs of her best friend while calling her out. And the only thing she found is messy and bitten marks of the cookies Pinkie Pie has left.

"The whole town got the cookies, and now everypony is shut up in their houses! And not to mention, they laughed for no reasons," Rainbow Dash said in concern. She gulped, "You don't think there's something wrong with the joke cookies, do you?"

CLATTER! LAUGH! Rainbow Dash looked worry and uneasy. She headed straight to kitchen of investigating the noise. And so far, she found nothing until she heard some laughter while spotted a familiar figure eating the cookies, near to the stove.

"Mrs. Cake! Phew! Have you seen Pinkie?" Rainbow Dash asked in concern, "I was thinking I might have something to do with her not feeling great." However, she received no reply but chewing on cookies and soft laughter from Mrs. Cake. This makes her uneasy. Rainbow Dash approached while asking, "Uh... Mrs... Cake...?"

Still no respond, Rainbow Dash poked Mrs. Cake's back gently. Instead of friendly reply, the baker hissed while laughed in amusement and insanely at the same time.

"Cookies...!" Mrs Cake exclaimed while laughed insanely as she slowly turned to Rainbow Dash. She has rainbow colors over her mouth while her eyes were wide-open and smiled creepily, "Cookies!"

Rainbow Dash whimpered in fear, "Uh, I can see you're busy! I'll come back!"

As Rainbow Dash began moving back at once, she tripped by an empty box. She fell her back hard on the ground. She groaned in pain as she was recovering. She heard the door open. She looked up and found the vault was opened while revealed Pinkie Pie smiled creepily with rainbow color on her mouth while moaned sickly.

"Cookies...!" Pinkie Pie screeched wildly.

Rainbow Dash screamed in fear. However, it wasn't just Mrs Cake and Pinkie Pie but also Mr. Cake, Lemon Zest and the babies. They all smiled creepily while moaned sickly as they muttered of wanting more cookies. As the zombified friends of hers were close to her, she quickly flew up before she get caught.

Rainbow Dash hissed in shame while looking at the zombie ponies with creepy smiles. She couldn't help but feel guilty and shame of what she has done to her own friends. But all she can do now is escape and fly away without getting infected.





Rainbow Dash escaped the Sugarcube Corner. However; Pinkie Pie, Lemon Zest and Cakes Family weren't the only ponies that get infected by eating the cupcakes but more local ponies of Ponyville Town. All of them were smiling creepily with rainbow cover on their mouths yet they looked sickly as they muttered 'cookies'.

She came across the water fountain, catching her breathe. Suddenly, she heard some munches. She looked to her back. She found Twilight Sparkle, Shadow Dragon, Spike and Lance Justicestrike were squatting down and munching on something.

Rainbow Dash gasped in relief, "Twilight! Shadow Dragon! You gotta come with me to Sugarcube Corner! Something's going on with the Cakes!" She hissed in concern about revealing her purpose, "Well, not something exactly. I mean, it may have something to do with these joke cookies..."

Rainbow Dash waited for the reply. But instead of friendly or angry kind, Twilight Sparkle and her family chuckled before laughed insanely. They turned and faced at her. Just like others, they too got covered with rainbow colors in smiling creepily yet looked sickly. They all muttered 'cookies'.

Rainbow Dash yelped as she moved back at once. She got hit something on her back. She looked up as she found Dragoking was looking at her creepily with rainbow colored on his smile. He chuckled evilly and insanely.

SCREAM! Rainbow Dash quickly escaped before she get caught especially it's from a Hydragoon! She has to find help.

Psychopath Joke laughed evilly as he emerged from Ponyville Town, "The party is on!"





Rainbow Dash looked around of Ponyville Town in finding and getting help. And unfortunately, all of her friends were infected by the joke cookies. Everyone including Fluttershy, Sunset Shimmer, Flash Sentry, Starlight Glimmer, Shadow Five, Dragon Strike Force, Team Fighters and even the animals were infected by the joke cookies they ate. This isn't good for Rainbow Dash now...

However, at Shorty Thinking's lab after learning both Shorty Thinking and Tailtech were infected bu the joke cookies, Rainbow Dash noticed couple of strange canisters in a box called 'P.J. Emergency'. She quickly took them while flew off at once.





Applejack, Rarity and Cutie Mark Crusaders made a stop by Carousal Boutique. They were dropping two white unicorns off.

"You sure you don't mind us all comin' over?" Applejack asked.

"Oh, of course not. I think the girls have earned a little celebration for all of their hard work. And I have plenty of sewing machine cake left over." Rarity said in amusement. She levitated the cookie box, "Unless anypony wants a cookie...?"

"Don't touch those!" Rainbow Dash shouted in concern as she kicked the box off. And just before her friends could argue, she interrupted, "Come on! There's no time! We gotta get outta here! You have to follow me!"

"What in tarnation is going on?" Applejack demanded.

Rarity sighed, "Oh, Rainbow Dash, if you want all of those cookies, you will have to buy them, just like everypony else."

"Oh, she doesn't..."

Rainbow Dash and her friends yelped in concern. They turned and looked back. They all yelped in concern as they saw a large number of laughing zombified ponies with rainbow colored smiles were moaning for 'cookies' while approaching them. Among the creepy zombies were Psychopath Joke and Harley Witch worn a royal robes sitting down on their chairs, carried by them.

"Psychopath Joke?!" Everyone asked in shock.

Harley Witch giggled happily, "Harley Quinn! A.K.A. Harley Witch! But Mr. P.J. is still the king for stealing the show!"

Psychopath Joke stood up while bowed down humbly, "Thank you! Thank you! But I couldn't have done without ya, Rainbow Dash!"

Everyone looked shock and confuse of what Psychopath Joke has said. They all turned and glared at Rainbow Dash.

"What is he talking?!" Applejack demanded.

Rainbow Dash hissed, "I'll explain later. Come on!"

Rainbow Dash put all of Cutie Mark Crusaders on the wagon as she got its neck yoke on her back. She trotted off, followed by Applejack and Rarity.

Psychopath Joke chuckled evilly, "You can run, but you can't hide from Psychopath Joke! It's Jokelypse Day!"





Rainbow Dash and her friends continued running away from Psychopath Joke and his smiling Zombie Army. However, their enemies weren't far behind.

"We need to find somewhere to hide!" Nyx exclaimed in concern.

Applejack hissed, "I know a place. Follow me!"

Applejack led her friends to the small barn, that is few meters away from her home. Upon arriving to the area, they quickly get inside and barricaded it by hammering nails on planks against the windows and doors. They all sighed in relief as they have escaped from the horror for now.

"Did we lose them?" Rainbow Dash asked.

Scootaloo panted heavily, "Why are we running from the ponies of Ponyville?"

Sweetie Belle hissed, "What happened to all of our friends?"

"What did Psychopath Joke mean 'he couldn't have done it without you'?" Nyx asked in concern.

"Did you know something?" Apple Bloom asked.

Ashley Joy gulped, "I don't like where this is going."

After some thinking of what Psychopath Joke has said to her, Rainbow Dash turned and looked at the wagon of several cookie boxes. She realized of what's really going on now. She sighed as she approached and took a cookie box while looking at her friends.

"I think it's something in the cookies."

"Ugh! That's ridiculous! Filly Guide cookies haven't changed for years!" Applejack said firmly, "It's not like there's a new ingredient that's turnin' the whole town into cookie-cravin' zombies."

"Uh, unless there... is..." Rainbow Dash said in concern.

"What are you saying?" Rarity asked.

Applejack, suspicious of Rainbow Dash's action to the cookies, demanded, "What did you do?"

CRUNCH! BANG! BANG! CRASH! LAUGHTER! Rainbow Dash and her friends yelped in shock and concern. They realized Psychopath Joke and his laughing zombie ponies have found them. And now, they're breaking through the small barn now while screaming and moaning for 'cookies'.

Using his axe, Psychopath Joke was chopping and breaking down the front entrance. He make a big hole, making him laughed evilly. He put his face through it while smiled creepily and evilly. He then laughed even more.

"HERE'S MARK HAMILL!" Psychopath Joke then laughed evilly before he got his face slammed by a plank in barricading the door. He groaned painfully while rubbing his nose gently, "Bloody Hell! That's bloody hurt!"

Rainbow Dash managed to barricade the door while turned to her friends and shouted, "Cover the windows!"

Rainbow Dash and her friends quickly barricaded the windows with more planks and nailed them to it. Applejack pushed the heavy cart in blocking the door from breaching through. The laughing zombie ponies continued knocking and banging the barn's barricade. Harley Witch helped Psychopath Joke up while looking at her minions.

Harley Witch screamed, "Don't stop! Keep knocking them down! The Jokelypse Day has to be the best!"

Her friends turned and looked at Rainbow Dash, who is now going to explain of what she has done to the town. She turned her lamp on to see her friends.

"Okay! So I may have switched all the Filly Guide cookies for joke cookies that were supposed to make ponies' mouths rainbow," Rainbow Dash gulped, "but somehow turned everypony into mindless cookie-eating laughing zombies instead!"

She hissed, "I didn't realize that the joke cookies were actually Psychopath Joke's evil plan! I figure we just hide out here until the effects wear off, and as long as nopony else eats the cookies, we'll be fine. Just hope that we can get over stupid 'April Fools Day'!"

"That's lovely, darling, except for one thing..." Rarity said dryly. Rainbow Dash turned to her but found her turned into a smiling zombie pony. She laughed insanely, "We've already eaten theeeeeeeeeemmmmm..."

This scared Rainbow Dash off as she bumped into Applejack, who also turned into a zombie pony as well. The farm pony laughed insanely, "Looks like your prank up and backfiiiirrrrreeeeed..."

Rainbow Dash screamed in fear as she dropped the lamp down hard. It rolled over to the front, where it shined over five zombified Cutie Mark Crusaders as they laughed and muttered 'cookies'. She gasped in shock as she realized that she's the only surviving pony in Ponyville Town. That isn't the only thing she has to worry.

Applejack kicked the cart off, allowing Psychopath Joke and his army of Zombie Ponies to break through. As they all moaned and laughed insanely at the same time, they kept on approaching to the pile of cookie boxes. 

"That's it, my pretties! Go get the cookies! Eat them! Join the club!" Psychopath Joke laughed evilly and crazily, "The Jokelypse Day is on going!"

Harley Witch laughed happily, "You heard me, kiddies! Go and eat your desserts! They're on the menu!"

Noticing their eyesight targeting at, Rainbow Dash flew and blocked the boxes while pushing them away from Zombie Ponies to the end. Psychopath Joke and Harley Witch stood back

"No, no! Stay away! They're making you sick! You don't want these!" Rainbow Dash pleaded, "Please! Don't listen to them! They're the bad guys!"

Harley Witch giggled, "Too bad. They just want the cookies."

"I agree," Psychopath Joke chuckled, "They're my children now. And as the parent, what I'd say, they'd follow it. Simple as that! To think this wouldn't be the best Jokelypse Day if you hadn't done anything to give me tingling." 

Hearing what Psychopath Joke has said and even looking at her home ponies turned into mindless smiling zombies, Rainbow Dash couldn't help but feel shame and guilty of what she has done.

"Nngh! Please! Stop! I never meant for this to happen! It was just a harmless prank! It was supposed to be funny!" Rainbow Dash pleaded before screamed, "But this isn't funny at all!"

Unintentionally slammed on one of Shorty Thinking's canisters out, it swirled around before landed on the ground hard. The canister's cover cracked as it burst and blew the gas right on the ponies' faces. They all coughed heavily and sickly. The rainbow colors on smile slowly dried and turned into ashes. This surprised Rainbow Dash and two evil clowns.

Rainbow Dash took and read the canister's instruction, "Psychopath Joke Emergency. Do not open or wasted its valuable assets, unless it's emergency such as Jokelypse Day, laughing gas, force smiling problems, etc and etc." She squealed happily, "Shorty, you're the pony! Time to turn my friends back!"

"Uh-oh!" Harley Witch said in concern.

Psychopath Joke gasped, "You wouldn't!"

"Yes, I am!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed firmly as she opened all of the canisters while they burst out the gasses, "Supper Time!"

Rainbow Dash threw all of the canisters out. Impacting the ground very hard, they all burst and unleashed the gas out. It flew right into everypony's noses, making them coughed heavily and sickly. The rainbow colors on their mouths dried and turned to ashes while their smiles returned to normal. Their body coats also returned to normal as well. Everypony moaned and groaned in pain as they all landed to the ground unconsciously.

Rainbow Dash panted heavily. She turned and looked at the cookies. She tested it, making sure she won't laugh or turned into zombie. For the minute later, she don't feel like eating them, laughing crazily or even turned into a monster. She sighed in relief. Everyone is safe.

Rainbow Dash turned and glared at Psychopath Joke, "Guess the jokes on you, P.J. Jokelypse Day is over now."

Psychopath Joke faking his sadness while sighed in disappointment, "Oh well. It's fun while it lasts." He smirked in amusement before chuckled, "But I can wait for next year's April Fools Day. Remember make the best joke and pranks ever!"

Harley Witch nodded happily, "Yeah! Can't wait to have our fun! I wonder if we could do the 'Batman: The Killing Joke' or maybe 'Death of the Bat Family'."

"Harley! That's already taken!"

"Oops! Sorry, Mr. P.J.!"

"Whatever." Psychopath Joke answered dryly as he slowly turned and glared at Rainbow Dash, "See ya, Crash! And remember, smile at the April Fools Day!"

Both Psychopath Joke and Harley Witch then laughed evilly and insanely as they threw the black smoke bombs on the ground. As it engulfed in black smoke, both of them disappeared while their laughter echoed very loud. This makes Rainbow Dash uneasy and uncomfortable.

Soon the ponies slowly got up while commenting and demanding of what's really going on, Rainbow Dash sighed as she began explained about what's really going on. And they weren't very happy and pleased with her answers. They all muttered and chatted angrily about it.

"I know. I know. I know," Rainbow Dash sighed in defeat, "I promised that I won't just go around-!"

"[Twilight Sparkle] Pranking whoever you feel like? [Fluttershy] Without thinking about how it might make them feel? [Rarity] Or if they'd even enjoy it? [Applejack] Or think it's funny? [Shadow Dragon] Or even ignoring my warning? [Aquastroke] Or even treating 'Jokelypse Day' a game? [All] Of even putting anypony in danger?!"

Rainbow Dash sighed, "Yeah..."

"Pranks can be a lot of fun when everypony has a good time." Pinkie Pie said in relief, "And of course, when they say it's enough means enough especially when Psychopath Joke was around to pull his evil Jokelypse Day off. Take time off for once."

"Yeah. I learn the hard way," Rainbow Dash remarked,"I'm sorry, everypony. I haven't really been thinking about how other ponies feel."

Fluttershy smiled in relief, "Well, I hope you learned your lesson."

"Totally! You ponies pulled off an amazing prank! I'll have to work extra hard to top it!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed happily. Everyone yelped in shock and surprise while speechless as they wondered if she was serious about it. She smirked, "Gotcha."

As Rainbow Dash laughed in amusement, everyone joined in as well. However, Shadow Dragon was annoyed by it.

"You know that wasn't even funny," Shadow Dragon remarked.

Twilight Sparkle sighed as she nudged Shadow Dragon's elbow, "Lighten up, Shadow Dragon..."

Shadow Dragon groaned, "Fine..."





"That's all folks!" Psychopath Joke exclaimed happily before laughed happily and insanely, "How about that, Porky Pig?! Best line ever!"
