//------------------------------// // The Wedding: Part 2 Electric Boogaloo // Story: The Wayfaring Strangers // by BiasedAmerican //------------------------------// Twilight used her horn as a light in a dark cave, she yelled out, "Hello?" She got up and walked around, "Is anyone there?" She hit a reflective wall and that is when a familiar voice called out, "Twilight?" She looked around until she saw a bright white light on the floor get up. It was Soviet, and he was using an MX-991 and he pointed the flashlight onto the ceiling to light up the room. Twilight got distracted as echoing laughs are heard moving around the cave. "Where am I?" She asked as she walked back into a wall. Soviet shined his flashlight onto her face, "Twilight! Focus on me." He got her out of a panicked state. "Soviet? Oh am I glad to see you." She immediately jumped towards him. She stood by his side as Soviet placed his flashlight on the floor facing up. "I don't know where we're at, but somewhere underground." Soviet pointed out. "Why how smart of you, human. You're in the caves beneath Canterlot." A green reflection of Cadenza was shown throughout the multiple crystal walls. "Once home to greedy unicorns who wanted to claim all the gems that could be found inside. And now, your prison." She announced. Twilight tried screaming for help to see if anyone else would hear her, but Soviet didn't help in her yelling as he watched Cadenza project her face onto the walls, following Twilight as she panicked. He pulled out his M9. "It's no use. No one can hear you. And no one will ever think to look for you, either." Cadenza added. Soviet smirked as he knows he's too noticeable to disappear. "Most ponies have forgotten that these caves even exist. Which is why they are the ideal place to keep the ones who try to interfere with my plans." Cadenza laughed maniacally. "Plans? What plans?" Twilight asked as Soviet pulled out his radio to try and contact anyone. But nothing came back, but static. He looked at Twilight to see what'll happen. "The plans I have for your brother, of course." Cadenza answered. Twilight got angry and charged her horn to fire, "Don't you dare do anything to my brother, you... you monster!" She screamed. "Only way to stop me is to catch me!" Cadenza mocked as she had a smug face, as Soviet knows he'll be in the front seat to wipe it off of her. Cadenza projected and moved around the crystals around the room to taunt Twilight to fire, which she did. She fired her beam and it deflected and bounced all across the room as her and Soviet duck down. She fired more multiple beams at Cadenza as it destroyed the crystals. But when Twilight destroyed a wall, after the smoke cleared, they found a more raggy and messy Cadenza. She had a surprised face and Soviet knew who it was. So he immediately chased after Twilight as she jumped onto Cadenza and tackled her as she begged and waved her arms to stop Twilight, "No! Wait!" Twilight tackled her and she was on the ground, she begged, "Please Don't hurt me!" Cadenza tried covering her face. She had a relief face on her, "Twilight, it's me!" Twilight wasn't convinced. "Please, you have to believe me. I've been imprisoned just like you." Twilight looked behind her for Soviet's advice, Soviet was leaning on the wall watching and he raised his palm up to tell Twilight to wait. "The Cadance who brought you down here was an imposter." Soviet then had suicidal thoughts. "Likely story!" Twilight screamed at her in anger. Cadenza then started doing their... handshake or their little dance to prove that it's the real Cadance. Twilight smiled as it was the real Cadance, the one who she remembered foalsitting her as a.. foal. Twilight jumped on her again, but instead it was a hug this time, "You remember me!" Twilight exclaimed. "Of course I do. How could I forget the filly I love to sit for the most?" Cadance replied. She heard the same maniacal laugh the imposter has. This brought her back to focus as she saw a glimpse of light shimmer. She looked to her right and saw a neatly dressed Soviet with Aviator Shades. "Hello Soviet." She greeted. Soviet did a short salute and said, "Greetings Princess, now once you two are done. I'll get you out of here and we'll get revenge on the person who is stealing your big day." Soviet assured. "Thank you, Soviet. Now I know I can always trust you." Cadance replied. "Now, let's move." Soviet then ran to the path he saw the shimmer of light was, with Cadance and Twilight following. As they were escaping, the imposter and Cadance were singing, much to Soviet's dislike, he got used to it. A few moments later, they find a cart and tracks. Cadance tried pushing it while still singing, she was too exhausted and weak to do so. So Soviet ushered the Princesses' into the cart as he pushed it himself and kicked the rocks that were blocking it from moving. He jumped in at the last moment. They hit a blockade and it launched them, with Soviet clinging onto Cadance, as Twilight flew closely behind them. Meanwhile in Canterlot, the wedding had already started. Cadenza was walking down the aisle as the CMC's threw the flowers. Everypony was there, including the humans who kept looking around for Soviet. Still no sign of him. The three reached the other side as they can hear Celestia welcoming everyone attending the wedding. They were blocked, "We're never going to save him." Cadance gave up. Twilight was on the verge until Soviet looked up and saw the glimpse of light, "Sunlight, up there!" He pointed. Twilight teleported the three up there. Only to find the former bridesmaids under a spell, saying in unison, "You're not going anywhere." They approached the three escapees. Celestia spoke, "Princess Cadance and Shining Armor, it is my great pleasure to pronounce you..." She was cut off by Twilight yelling "Stop!" behind the huge doors. This caught everyone's attention as she entered. Her friends felt embarrassed for her and or hoping she didn't arrive to make more of a fuss. Cadenza growled, "Why does she have to be so possessive of her brother?" She said in an angry tone, to be met with suspicion from Celestia, she tried to save herself by crying, "Why does she have to ruin my special day?" Another voice came from the doorway. "Because it's not your special day. It's mine!" Cadance entered the room. Everyone gasped. "What? But how did you escape my bridesmaids?" Cadenza questioned. Cadance and Twilight looked at each other. While inside of the cave, Soviet stood in front of the two and pulled out a baton saying. "I got this. Teleport me once you get back to Canterlot." He then charged to the bridesmaids with the baton and began to swing it at them. They then bolted out of the cave to Canterlot. Now revealing how they escaped, Twilight remembered, "Oh that's right!" She then casted a spell that teleported him into the room in front of them. A purple magical light flashed in front of Twilight and Cadance, he was facing down on his right, with a bloody baton on his left hand and a M9 on his right, aiming down at the ground. As he noticed he was teleported, he looked around and noticed the amount of stares and gasps as they saw his bloody uniform and cracked shades. Soviet saw Cadenza and approached her with him aiming his baton at her. "You better explain!" He stopped in front of pedestal as Ewok, Tankery, and Tim formed a line in front of him and aimed their M9's at Cadenza. Cadenza scoffed, "Huh, clever. But you're still too late." Applejack spoke, "I don't understand. How can there be two of 'em?" "What do you think? She's a changeling. She takes the form of somebody you love and gains power by feeding off your love for them." Soviet explained. This made Cadenza enraged, she bursted into a tower of green flame, causing her to transform into her changeling self. It was none other than Chrysalis. Everyone gasped in fear, as they have been fooled by a single changeling. During her transformation, Soviet yelled. "Open fire!" Him and the other three fired their M9's. The bullets were deflected and as her transformation finished, she maniacally laughed. "Right you are, Princess." Soviet told his men, "Stand down, we don't want her to die too quickly, we need to make her suffer." He said as they all saw his massive grin on his face. As ordered, they stood down, as Tankery loaded another magazine into his pistol, the rest followed suit. "And as queen of the changelings, it is up to me to find food for my subjects. Equestria has more love than any place I've ever encountered." She said as she approached Cadance. "My fellow changelings will be able to devour so much of it." "Sov, why don't we drop her right now?" Tim asked. "We'll let her have a false sense of security, I want to see her reaction. Plus it'll make everyone know we're not to be messed with. You and Tankery go to the Bradley." Soviet responded. Tim looked back at Soviet and he yelled, "Now! Move it!" Tim and Tankery ran out of the room to find the Bradley. They checked each hallway on their way to make sure they were clear, and that there were no other changelings waiting to ambush them. "-That we will gain more power than we have ever dreamed of!" "They'll never get the chance! Shining Armor's protection spell will keep them from ever even reaching us." Cadance refuted. Chrysalis laughed, "Oh, I doubt that. Isn't that right, dear?" Chrysalis looked back at Shining Armor and she activated her horn. Shining Armor nodded. "What's the game plan here anyways?" Ewok asked. "We're gonna give her false hope, then we'll steamroll her and her forces. It'll be a tough one, but if we don't let this happen, then we have a lot of bugs to deal with once we leave the barrier." Soviet explained. Cadance was full of rage, she ran to save Shining Armor but Chrysalis stopped her, "Ah ah ah! Don't wanna go back to the caves, now do you?" "And also that." Soviet added. "Ever since I took your place, I've been feeding off Shining Armor's love for you. Every moment he grows weaker, and so does his spell. Even now my minions are chipping away at it." Above Canterlot, there were a horde of changelings ramming into the barrier. While down below, Tankery and Tim were checking their CIWS and Patriot missile defenses they had set up yesterday, with Soviet and Tankery spawning them, and Tim and Ewok setting them up. It was fairly easy, when someone else did it for you. Tim finally found the Bradley and started it up, he found an M14 with the markings, "3-7". He wondered what that meant but the rifle seemed old. Tankery finally got into the Bradley and they found a group of Guards looking up in the sky until Tim revved the engine to get their attention. Tankery got out of the cupola and said, "Tell your squads to defend our AA sites! And prepare for battle! Regroup point at the castle!" The guards nodded and ran off to tell the other squads. "Alright Tim, get this thing moving to the castle." Tankery spoke onto the radio. Chrysalis chuckled, "He may not be my husband, but he is under my total control now. And I'm sorry to say, unable to perform his duties as captain of the royal guard!" "Not my Shining Armor!" Cadance yelped. "Ohhhh. Now I get his name." Ewok said as he looked at Soviet who facepalmed. Soviet nudged Ewok, "Let's go to the hallway, we'll make sure that no changelings break in." The two ran out of the room with Soviet yelling out loud to trick Chrysalis, "We're running away because we're scared!" Twilight stopped the two to question them, "Where are you two going?!" She whispered. "We're going to give them a false sense of hope, good luck." Soviet replied as they continued. "Soon, my changeling army will break through. And even your humans are scared! Look at them cowardly run!" She laughed. "First we take Canterlot. And then all of Equestria!" "No." A stern voice from behind spoke out. It was Celestia, "You won't. You may have made it impossible for Shining Armor to perform his spell, but now that you have so foolishly revealed your true self, I can protect my subjects... from you!" Celestia and Chrysalis began fencing with their horns. Celestia flew back and a bright magic beam fired from her horn, directed at Chrysalis. Chrysalis fired a magic beam back, they collided and it was a battle of tug of war, with magical lasers I guess. Chrysalis was yelping for help, until she was pushing back Celestia's beam. Celestia was surprised by this, Chrysalis's beam reached back to Celestia's horn, causing her to be blown back with her crown coming off. Celestia's horn was burnt to the tip, she laid weak on the ground. Everyone gasped as their protectors fled and their queen has been defeated. The Elements of Harmony approached the weakened Celestia on the floor. Chrysalis scoffed, "Shining Armor's love for you is even stronger than I thought! Consuming him has made me even more powerful than Celestia!" "The Elements of Harmony, you must get to them... And use their powers to defeat the queen." Celestia fainted. The Mane 6 ran off and threw their dresses, which Rarity tried collecting until she gave up when they called for her. A minute later... Tankery was chilling in the turret with Tim driving to the Castle until they got a radio message, "This is 1-1, Castle has been overrun, VIP's headed to the huge ass Castle that wasn't the wedding one. Don't know why they have that many but get your asses over there!" "Understood 1-1, over and out." Tankery responded. "You heard the man, lets get this shit started!" "Roger that, moving out!" They both smiled as they knew they were going to have their special kind of fun. The type of fun where 25mm cannons are the main source of fun. Tankery spoke on the radio, "Tim, hit the button on the right." Tim then hit it and Tim yelled, "Wohooo!" As Highway to Hell started playing on the radio. They both sang poorly but still vibed as they drove to an intersection. The Changelings finally broke the shield, it collapsed. Canterlot was now exposed, until the 2nd line of defense popped up, scaring everybody, even the Mane 6, except the Humans. As the shield shattered and shook canterlot, once it stopped CIWS and Patriot Missiles began firing into the air all at once. The Changelings knew it was keep moving or die. So they dived into Canterlot, suffering heavy losses. They started crashing in like very small artillery shells, but most of them are getting gunned down. The Mane 6 kept running, when they passed an alleyway, Soviet and Ewok ran out of the alleyway and ran with the Mane 6. Instead of their dress uniforms, Ewok was dressed in Wehrmacht uniform. Soviet was dressed in US Army WW2 uniform. A Changeling dropped in front of the group, causing them to stop. It got up and tried to jump to Twilight, but Ewok put his M1911 on it's head and fired. It spooked the ponies they were protecting. But nonetheless they continued running. They ran up a staircase, only to find a horde of Changelings. They all stopped, Soviet and Ewok ran in front of the group to shield them from the changelings. They then became surrounded, until they heard... "What is that?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Don't know, is that.. is that music?!" Twilight spoke out. "Oh hell yes!" Soviet and Ewok screamed as they started spraying and praying into the horde. The song became louder and louder, until the Bradley climbed over a ledge into the open area, running over the Changelings and firing it's main and secondary weaponry into the horde as they tried to overrun the Bradley by charging at it. Soviet and Ewok jumped into the large group, usually using one hand to hold their guns and the other for another gun. The two crewmen in the Bradley got bored and while on their way to the opening to assist Soviet and Ewok, they found 3 scared fillies that he recognizes as the CMC's. So they let them on board and as Tim opened the ramp from the Bradley and Tankery ordered the CMC's, "Stay in here, and use this on anyone that looks like a bug if they try to get in, understood?" The three nodded nervously as Sweetie Belle used her magic to hold the M1911. As Tim, dressed in WW2 Australian uniform and a certain Tankery in Soviet WW2 Era uniform. Tim was armed with a Owen Gun, Tankery with a PPsh-41, Soviet with a Thompson, and Ewok with an STG-44. They got into a line and charged at the horde, using their weapons to hit and fire, using their fists, legs, even helmets at some times to kill the Changelings. They formed an opening to cross, giving the Mane 6 the opportunity to gun it. They ran through MACE who were killing as many Changelings to make said opening. This went on for 3 minutes until they realized, "Shit, was that all of them?" Until they looked up and saw another horde going after them in the air, they started to panic until Soviet ordered, "Retreat! But still blast em to bit boys!" They all laughed in excitement, they were finally enjoying themselves, the teamwork, coordination, and effectiveness the 4 were showing was impressive. They casually traded places in a stylish way but looking cool enough as they blasted the Changelings. They started to run and Tankery opened the ramp in the Bradley and ushered the 3 to get out of it. The fillies ran and followed Soviet. Tankery dove away from the Bradley as a Changeling charged at high speeds into the cupola and hitting the ammo rack. The Bradley exploded, Tankery immediately got up and sprinted to Soviet, as he heard a loud clank hit the ground, it turns out to be the turret of the Bradley landed on exactly where he was before. They all got into a house as the flying horde flew by, "Holy hell! Almost got blown to bits." Tankery exclaimed. "Yeah well, we're down an IFV. Thing was too slow anyways." Ewok pointed out. "Yeah, well we gotta make our way back to the castle, or at least defend the main room until Shining Armor can cast his spell back. We'll meet up with the group at the castle, but we'll need to split up in teams. Meet up point is the main entrance, secure it and wait for the other team to arrive. Got it?" Soviet explained. "Understood." Tankery, Tim, and Ewok said in unison as the CMC's grunted in agreement. "Alright, let's move!" Soviet said as he holstered a M1903A4 and started to wait by a window. "1-2 go first, being Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. Keep them safe." The 4 then sneaked through the streets to the castle, then as they lost sight of them, Soviet, Ewok, and Scootaloo did the same thing but went a different path. They executed any Changeling they saw on the way. Soviet, Ewok, and Scootaloo got into a building that has an overview of the castle field. Soviet aimed his M1903A4 out the 2nd story window and saw the now captured Mane 6 going into the castle. He got on his radio, "Be advised 1-2. Twilight and her friends have been captured, watch your fire. Over." "Roger that 1-1, proceeding with caution." The radio replied. As the Mane 6 got into the castle, Soviet and Ewok fired their weapons to cover Tim and Tankery who are running through the field to get inside the castle, closely followed by Applebloom and Sweetie Belle. Scootaloo screamed in fear as the sounds of gunfire filled the room. After killing almost 30 Changelings, Soviet got up and yelled, "Alright, let's move!" He ran down the stairs and jumped out of a window on the 1st floor. Ewok had to carry Scootaloo as she was afraid she might get cut from the shattered glass. As they approached the castle, Tim opened the doors and waved his arms to usher them inside. As they got inside, Tankery was seen guarding the entrance with Applebloom and Sweetie Belle being used as extra lines of sight. Scootaloo immediately ran to hug the other CMC's as they talked about how scared they were. Soviet and Ewok stacked up behind him, Tim and Tankery did the same. They cautiously fast walked to the main room, aiming their weapons to any potential ambush sites. They heard a loud voice from the main room say, "Go! Feed!" Then the doors opened to reveal a group of changelings flying towards them, "Light them up!" Ewok said as the group fired their weapons at the Changelings. As they all fell from the sky, only one Changeling got close to the group. As the group of changelings died, they rushed to the main room to find the captured Mane 6, Cadance, a cocooned Celestia and a hypnotized Shining Armor. Chrysalis continued giving her speech, unbothered by the sudden Human appearance. "It's funny really. Twilight here was suspicious of my behavior all along. Too bad the rest of you were too caught up in your wedding planning to realize those suspicions were correct." "Good speech, now hand yourself over or we'll do it by force." Soviet said as he pulled out a baton. Chrysalis chuckled, "Oh really? What are you going to do?" "Let's beat this bitch!" Tankery yelled as he pulled out a baton and charged Chrysalis. Chrysalis fired a magic beam at Tankery, but she missed as a bullet from Ewok's STG-44 hit her arm. She screamed in pain but continued blasting at the Humans. The rest charged at her, but were only lucky as the beam hit their steel helmets or them dodging the beams. Tankery jumped onto Chrysalis' leg to drag her down from flying, but she used a magical blast to launch Tankery into a wall. "Shoot her wings! I want her alive!" Soviet ordered. Tim and Ewok then focused their fire on the wings, causing Chrysalis to fall down onto the ground. She tried getting back up but was kicked down by Soviet's boot. He hit her with his baton in the face and she was kicked in the back by Tankery. "Twilight, free Cadance. We're going to scare these bugs back to their home to remember this moment. The day they lost the war as soon as it started." Soviet grinned. Twilight freed Cadance from the Changeling goo locking her feet, and Cadance hugged Shining Armor out of his trance. Shining Armor tried to reactivate the shield but he was too weak. Cadance hugged him and said, "My love will give you strength." Shining Armor tried to reactivate the shield again, but this time Cadance gave him a spark on his horn from hers, which totally doesn't sound weird, to give him strength. Her horn activated. With the power of both of their magic, they levitated as the room was filled with magical light, this activated a blast that threw all Changelings or changeling entities out of Canterlot and into the sky. Soviet looked at Celestia who now free, was still asleep, Tankery approached him and asked. "Considering she was in a cocoon with Changeling fluid whatever the hell it is, is it safe to say that she was in THE JAR?" "Shut up." Soviet laughed. Twilight ran to pick up Celestia. "Don't worry about me. I'm fine." Celestia reassured. "You have a real wedding to put together." The humans cheered, as the rest of the city did too. But Tim saw something in the distance, "We got movement in the air, closing in fast!" Tankery took out his binoculars to check. "We got those bird things, fucking Griffons! But not that many, we should be fine." Tankery laughed as he heard multiple, "BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT" From the city. He saw the bright red tracers aimed at the Griffons. He blinked and saw only red mist. "That solved it out." He scoffed. A few hours later, they restarted the preparations for the wedding. Now with extra anti-air defenses placed around Canterlot. This time, it was more positive than the last time preparing for the wedding. They were at the altar, and Twilight stood next to Shining Armor. She fixed his webbing that was out of place. The two saw their parents with their mother crying. The guards with drums started playing, giving Fluttershy the cue to start making her birds sing. Everyone looked at the doorway which opened with the Guard's magic. To see the CMC's dressed in... dresses throwing flowers, with the Bride behind them. Celestia stood in the middle of the altar, with Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie on the left on the staircase as Twilight, Spike, Soviet, Ewok, and Tim in their Pink and Greens with shades again, stood on the right. With now an awake Luna who was asleep the whole time, now stood next to the bestmares. Twilight nudged Shining Armor, "Seriously though I get why the queen of the Changelings wanted to be with you, but how did you get someone as amazing as Cadance to marry you?" She chuckled. "I told her she wouldn't just be gaining a husband, she would be getting a pretty great sister too." Shining Armor answered. Rarity started to tear up and wiped her tears with a napkin, which Pinkie Pie took and defied logic and anything that makes sense where she cried and entire river but the napkin absorbed it all. The humans stood still, with their shades of course blocking their eyes. Tankery spoke to Soviet with a voice breaking, "Y-you gonna cry Soviet?" "N-no what makes you say that?" He answered as the 4 had tons of tears dropping down. Cadance got onto the altar, and Celestia spoke. "Mares, gentlecolts, and Humans. We are gathered here today to celebrate the union of the real Princess Mi Amore Cadenza..." "Princess Cadance is fine." Cadance assured. Celestia smiled and corrected herself, "The union of Princess Cadance and Shining Armor. The strength of their commitment is clear. The power of their love, undeniable. May we have the rings please?" Spike in a suit and a tophat, handed the rings to Celestia who grabbed it with her magic to put them onto the horns of Cadance and Shining Armor. "I now pronounce you mare and colt." Everyone cheered, but weren't loud enough to silence the loud cheers, clapping, and "Whoops" from the humans. While Ewok cried in happiness. The now married couple got onto a deck just outside of the room, and saw a massive crowd cheering for their wedding. The couple waved at them all. Ewok asked Tankery, 'Wait, if the groom wasn't a unicorn or had a horn, where were they going to put the ring?" "It's a cock ring already, so might as well put it on a cock. Right?" This made the two laugh. Celestia told Twilight, "This is your victory, as much as theirs. You persisted in the face of doubt. And your actions led to your being able to bring the real Princess Cadance back to us. Learning to trust your instincts is a valuable lesson to learn." The couple kissed on the deck and Celestia nudged Rainbow Dash, "Rainbow Dash, that's your cue." Rainbow Dash immediately flew into the sky and created a sonic rainboom over Canterlot. "Best. Wedding. Ever!" She yelled. Tankery looked around, and spoke, "Where the hell is Soviet?" "And Luna?" Celestia added as the group scanned the room. Twilight and Rarity looked at Celestia as she looked back at them, realizing where they went. They chuckled as they tried to hide their smiles with their hooves. Tankery facepalmed as he realized why they left. Tim ran out onto the deck and leaned on the ledge to as he was in awe from the sonic rainboom, but was pulled back by Ewok since that deck was reserved for the married couple only. Hours later, the sun was setting and they were all in an open area where the Bride and Groom were slow dancing. Celestia, the Mane 6 and Tim, Tankery, and Ewok stood close to the dance floor where the two were slow dancing. Luna and Soviet appeared from behind them in a bush. "Hello, everypony. Did we miss anything?" Luna asked. They smiled awkwardly as they didn't want to tell her Canterlot was attacked since she was asleep for the entire thing, until the actual wedding. "Did we miss anything?" Celestia asked Luna as she knew what they were doing. This made Luna and Soviet laugh awkwardly and Celestia laughed out loud since she made them feel awkward. Twilight looked and Pinkie Pie and nodded, making her have a huge smile and immediately jolting to the DJ Booth. She grabbed headphones and Vinyl Scratch as she placed a disk onto the booth. "Let's get this party started!" She spoke as she threw a microphone to Twilight and began to sing. Soviet and Tim danced on each side of the Bride and Groom, as Ewok and Tankery stood besides the DJ booth and moved their hips and heads to the beat. As they were taking pictures, they also took a picture of stupidity also known as: Tim, Tankery, Ewok, and Soviet together with their arms over each other's shoulders as they are seen smiling and Ewok's shades on top of his hat and Tim wearing his hat upside down. As the newlyweds walked to their carriage, Twilight and Soviet was there to greet them. "Twilight! None of this would've been possible without you, little sis. And you too Soviet. Love you. Twily." Soviet nodded to Shining Armor's compliment. "Love you too, B.B.B.F.F." The two hugged. Shining Armor was just about to get into the carriage but was stopped by Soviet who grabbed Shining Armor's attention him calling out, "Hey, Shining Armor." "Yeah?" Soviet leaned in to whisper. "Dude, good luck tonight." Soviet jokingly said. This made Shining Armor laugh, he got into the carriage and stuck his head out to reply to Soviet, "I'm gonna need it!" Making the two laugh. Shining Armor asked Cadance, "Ready to go?" "Oh! Almost forgot." Cadance threw her bouquet into the crowd. Rarity pushed the other mares aside and yelled, "IT'S MINE!" She crazily yelled as she almost grabbed it, if it weren't for Luna who pushed her aside and grabbed the flowers. "Fair play." Rarity spoke. Twilight saw this and told Soviet. "Uhm... Soviet?" Soviet turned around and his jaw dropped. "Good luck." Twilight added. Soviet stood still as a statue. The carriage drove off as the humans saluted it. Twilight said, "Now this was a great wedding." Fireworks went off
