//------------------------------// // Inflatable Six // Story: My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Magic Shorts // by Dupontsimon //------------------------------// Inflatable Six At Rainbow Dash's house, shorty after school, she invited her friends over to swim in her new swimming pool. It was shaped like the cloud of her cutie mark with three slides that make a resemblance of the rainbow. Five of her friends arrived, already dressed in their swimsuits. "It's nice you invited us, Rainbow," Twilight said. "I never knew you had a pool." "I just thought how we could spend time together before we graduate next week," Rainbow Dash said. "I think this sounds relaxing," Rarity said. "I wonder where Sunset is." "She'll be here," Twilight said. "She's finding someplace to keep Trixie's magic wand safe." "I still think that new magic is interesting," Fluttershy said. "Like how it made that cardboard pony Sunset." "But if we're not careful with it," Applejack said. "Who know what it'll do." "Let's worry about it later," Rainbow Dash said. "Right now, I want to try my new sides." "Me too," Pinkie Pie agreed. The Mane Six were now enjoying themselves. Twilight, Rarity and Fluttershy floating around on pool floaties, while Applejack and Rainbow Dash were on the slides. They noticed Pinkie Pie was looking at something in her backpack. The two of them walked up to her. "What are you doing, Pinkie," asked Rainbow Dash. "Nothin," Pinkie said. "I just realize I forgot sunscreen." "You don't need sunscreen," Applejack said. "Unless you're hiding something." Pinkie laughed it off and said, "That's ridiculous. What would I be hiding for you?" Her backpack falls over and spills out, reveling Trixie's enchanted wand. She tried to act surprised like her friends were. "Uh, how did this get in there?" "Maybe because you took it without Sunset knowing," Rainbow Dash answered. "What were you thinking, Pinkie," Twilight asked. "I just wanted try more of this magic," Pinkie said. "I mean it's not that we shouldn't try practicing so we can be careful. Rarity tried it." "Yeah," Applejack replied. "But we just don't think you're careful be not clearing your mind." "Just give it to me," Rainbow said and grabs for it. She and Pinkie starts to wrestle over the wand until they accidently fling it into the pool. Twilight was about to grab the wand when she feels her body turning to rubber. They realize the wand's magic is enchanting the water, which can transform them into inflatables. The effects turns Twilight into a pony floatie, Rarity a swan floatie and Fluttershy into big rubber duck. They were unable to talk or use their geode powers. The other three girls were horrified what happen to their friends until Applejack said the Pinkie, "I warned you about this." "So, now what," Rainbow Dash asked. "Just get the wand out and they'll change back," Pinkie said. "And how do we do that without touching the water," Applejack asked. "Just watch me," Pinkie said. She starts to jump across the inflated girls. "Sorry about this, but I need to think of something." As she was on Twilight, closest to the wand, she tries to reach for. But then she slipped and fell into the water, turning her into an inflatable seahorse. Rainbow Dash and Applejack looked like that she was gonna fail anyways. "Got any other ideas," Applejack asked. Rainbow Dash hand her a pool net and said, "Try using this. I think it's long enough." Applejack manage to get the wand with the net. "See that you think first with easy ways, Pinkie," she asked. "Now, don't worry, girls. We'll have you fixed." Rainbow Dash realizes something and warned, "Wait, not with it still--" But too late as Applejack already touched the wand, still wet. She feels the water's effect on her, turning her into an inflatable bopper doll. It caused her to drop the wand back in the pool. "Wet." Rainbow finished. With her as the last one, Rainbow Dash tried to think of something else, especially that the net fell in the pool, too. She thought of one but knows what gonna happen. "I know I'll get it too," she said. "But at least I could try and kick it out." She gets a distance from the pool and charges with her super speed. She was able to run across the water and kicked the wand out and onto a dry towel. She can still feel the inflatable effect transforming her into a dragon floatie. With all the Mane Six turned into inflatable, they realize the water is still enchanted. As Sunset Shimmer arrived, she sees what happened and said, "I knew something like this would happen." She notices a rope of the pool's drain plug. "And haven't you tried draining the water to get the wand out." Much to Rainbow Dash's annoyance for not think of it before. Sunset pulls the drain plug and the water drains out of the pool, allowing the inflatable girls to turn back to normal. "Even I felt dumb for not think of that either," Applejack said. "Sometimes I always forget about the drain," Rainbow Dash said. "But good thing I added that." "I'm sorry for causing all this trouble on you," Pinkie said. "It's ok, Pinkie," Twilight said. "I just hope you learn to be careful with magic ideas next time." "And ask first if any of you want to try this," Sunset said. "I would like to try it just once," Rarity said. "Perhaps another clothes making trick like I tried before." Rarity actives the wand's magic and creates new swimsuits for herself and her friends. "Very nice swimsuits, Rarity," Rainbow Dash commented. "Even I'm interested." "I'll say," Applejack said. "But what are these cords for?" Rarity noticed she added pull cord to their suits. "I didn't think of adding these," she said. She pulls on it and inflates a built-in floatie. The same happened to the others' suit. "I guess I'm not clearing my head after the transformation." They all share a laugh about it as the short ends.
