//------------------------------// // Eggin out // Story: Equestria Ninja Girls Easter Time // by WarriorofFaith18 //------------------------------// It was the morning before Easter in Canterlot. The Rainbooms decided to have a celebration and invited their friends from New York, The Ninja Turtles, their allies, and the Mighty Mutanimals, including their newest recruit, Ray Fillet. As the sun was rising, Donnie gathered everyone, who were still half asleep, in Sweet Apple Acres as he stood in front of a big machine. “Good morning, everyone. I bet you’re wondering why I called you all here.” He grinned. Sunset yawned. “Must be important if it’s before breakfast.” "Tell me about it," groaned Spike. “I finally finished the project Twilight and I started on yesterday. I’ve been up all-night perfecting it.” "With my added modifications." Rockwell boasted, irking the tech turtle. Raph let out a big yawn. “Yeah, thanks for sharing, Don. Can we get breakfast now?” Donnie shot him a look. “Hold on. I’m getting ready to demonstrate.” “Good morning, everyone!” Everyone looked to see Rarity walking up. She was wearing a special violet bonnet with lavender flowers. “Why, Rarity! That’s a wonderful bonnet you’re wearing!” April smiled. "It is very lovely." Leatherhead complimented. “Thank you, Darlings. Making bonnets for Easter is what I do for the festivities.” She then noticed the machine. “Is this why you called us here, Donatello?” “Yep. You’re just in time to see the demonstration. Twilight?” Twilight nodded as she led the group to a control panel. “Behold! Our Automatic Easter Egg Machine.” She continued to explain as she pushed a couple buttons. “You start by selecting your color, patterns, and quantity. Then you pressed this big button.” As Twilight pushed the big button, the machine turned on and spat eggs on a conveyer belt while Donnie continued. “We simply put raw eggs on one end and, viola! Easter eggs come out on the other.” The eggs went in this big part. Screens were shown to show that the eggs were boiled and colored. Then they were rolled out, all colored and ready, into an Easter basket. “Awesome!” Rainbow cheered. “Cool.” Casey added. “Nice.” Leo nodded. “Wow.” April smiled. "Great." Slash grinned. "Impressive." Leatherhead nodded. “Mighty impressive.” Applejack whistled. “Wonderful!” bounced Pinkie. “Great.” Sunset added. “Yay.” Fluttershy added. “Wonderful.” Rarity gleamed. “Nice” Raph yawned. “I like it.” Karai said. “Me too.” Shini agreed. "Great." Keno yawned. "Bodacious!" Mondo thumbed up. "Perfect." Rockwell levitated. "Fascinating." Mona pondered. "Sweet!" Pidgeon Pete chirped. "A plus work." Bandit thumbed up. "Very impressive." said Ray Fillet. Twilight took an egg out of the basket. “No muss, no fuss, no Easter egg dye on your hand.” “Wait let me guess. You both volunteered us to make Easter Eggs for Principal Celestia who’s hosting the annual Canterlot Easter Egg hunt.” Raph guessed. “Egg-xactly!” They both said. “Oh great. Egg puns. Which reminds me. Can we get breakfast now?” "Great! I'm famished." Rockwell grinned. "I could use some coffee myself." Bandit stretched. “I’ll go rustle up some grub.” Applejack offered. Leo turned to Twilight and Donnie. “Let us know if you two need more eggs. We’ll go get them.” "As long as there's no chicken inside." Pete warned. "Relax, Pete. We separate our hen houses so we use the right eggs." Applejack assured. "Just making sure." “Thanks, Leo.” Twilight smiled. “You are an egg-xample to us all!” joked Donnie. “Donnie!” growled Raph while Casey and Keno tried to hold their laughs in. Just then, Mikey walked up yawning to the machine. “Far out, Dudes. What’s this thing do?” “Wait, Mikey! Not too close!” Donnie warned. But Mikey leaned too close that he ended up on the conveyer belt and was getting bombarded with raw eggs. “Hold on, Mikey! I’ll turn it off!” Twilight hurried to the controls “Help! Get me off this thing!” Mikey coughed. Twilight pulled the lever labeled emergency stop. It caused the machine to send Mikey flying out. “That’s not supposed to happened.” She said. "I gotcha!" Ray cried as he caught Mikey. Suddenly, the machine started to fire eggs like crazy at the group. Rainbow used her speed to grab as many eggs as she could. Rockwell jumped and helped with his ESP. "All right. All Right. Little outside." Mondo caught a couple while acting like an umpire. Casey dodged an egg before another hit him on the forehead. "It'll take more than an egg to yolk Casey Jones!" "They're flying in too fast!" Slash bellowed as an egg hit his eye. Then, Sunset dove in and unplugged the machine, causing it to shut down. "Nice move, Sunset." Karai complimented as she wiped off some egg dye that splashed on her. “Everyone okay?” she asked everyone. Her response was a shriek from Rarity. Everyone looked to see her holding her bonnet, which was covered in eggs. “My bonnet!” she cried. “I guess it needs a little fine tuning” Twilight smiled sheepishly. “Sorry, Rarity.” Sweated Donnie. "Hmm. I must have miscalculated somewhere." Rockwell pondered. “Well it wasn’t perfected anyway. I could still start from scratch and finish in time.” Rarity shrugged as she tossed it aside. "You okay, Mikey?" Mondo asked his bud. "Well I'm awake now, that's for sure." "Well, I guess the yolk's on us." Everyone groaned at Keno's joke. "Oh come on! Someone had to say it." "At least we were able to salvage some Easter eggs." Rockwell assured as Rainbow had two baskets full. "Same here." Shinigami revealed she caught some eggs with her hat. “I’ll fix the machine after breakfast.” Donnie assured. “Great!” Mikey perked up. “For some reason, I could really go for a cheese omelyte!” "Extra Cheese on mine." Mondo added. "I personally like scrambled with salsa. It helps me prep when I shoot hoops." Bandit shared. “I think I’m gonna skip the eggs.” Rarity stated. “Personally, I prefer my eggs over easy.” Raph said as two egg yolks slide off his eyes. "With parsley for me." Slash agreed. "I could go for some toast." Pete pointed out. "Then after breakfast, and the machine gets fixed, we can take the eggs to Principal Celestia." Leo said. Everyone agreed as they headed for Sweet Apple Acres. To be continued
