Applejack asked angrily. Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes and looked to Twilight. "I told you Ms. No-Legs would be too much of a wuss..." She said, causing Twilight to burst into laughter. Applejack scowled and looked down to the wheelchair she was in. The stampede stunt had caused her to be wheelchair-ridden for the next few months, and now Dash was trying to get her and her friends to do another dangerous stunt. "Just because ahm in this dumbass wheelchair doesn't mean ah can't do y'alls' stupid stunts." The orange earthpony said, annoyed. Rainbow Dash huffed and pointed her hoof to the nearby course she had set up. It was a massive roll-in ramp, leading to a small kicker rap, that led through a small hoop of fire. "Then do it. It's so fucking simple! Just go down the ramp, up the other ramp, and through the fire. Nothing." Rainbow Dash said, the fire from the hoop flickering across her face. Applejack paused and swallowed nervously as she looked at the menacing hoop. "C'mon! I've only got this warehouse for a day!" Dash said angrily, cutting off her friend's thought. Dun-dun dun-dun. Dun-dun...... At that moment, Pinkie shoved the electric shaver against Rainbow Dash's mane once again, taking off a considerable amount of her rainbow-colored hair. Dash immediately stumbled forward and felt at the lost patch of her mane while Pinkie toppled over with laughter. "Y-You should've seen the stupid-ass look on your face!" Pinkie said, gasping for air as she rolled around laughing. Rainbow scowled at the pink earthpony, but Applejack let out a chuckle and nodded. "Ok, that convinced me, I'll try it out Rainbow..." * * * "Look into the camera Applejack!" Spike shouted as the orange earthpony neared the edge of the ramp. Applejack blinked and took in the height of the roll-in ramp, which was substantially high. "Uh... Ah-Ah'm Applejack, and this is the F-Fire Jump..." She said nervously. "Yeah Applejack!" Twilight shouted, cheering her wheelchair-bound friend. "We... sort of... believe in you!" Rarity said, her voice slightly choked by a cast around her neck. Spike quickly gave AJ the ready signal, and she inched the wheels of her chair closer to the ramp. Almost instantly the slope of the ramp pulled her down, nearly flipping out of the back of the chair at intense speeds. She began to tense-up as the kicker ramp came into view, the flames drawing closer. To her surprise, she floated through the burning hoop and landing softly on the other side of the ramp. "Did she really just...?" Rainbow Dash said, completely dumbfounded that the stunt had actually gone through. Applejack let out a wide smile. "YEEEEEEE-HAW! Who's next?!" She shouted happily. * * * After most of the mares had finished their jumps, only one more shy pegasus remained, Fluttershy. She shakily crawled to the top of the ramp, Scootaloo's scooter at hoof. "I'm still not OK with her using that..." The small orange pegasus said from the bottom of the ramp, clearly annoyed. Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes. "Fuck off, You're a chicken." She said nonchalantly. Scootaloo glanced up to her idol, tears welling in her eyes. Rainbow didn't give a fuck. After a few seconds of disbelief, the orange filly trotted away, sobbing vigorously. "I-I don't know about this girls..." Fluttershy said. "Don't be such a little bitch!" Pinkie shouted with a menacing chuckle. Fluttershy sank slightly for a second, tears welling in her eyes. After a moment, she narrowed her eyebrows and assumed a heroic stance. "You're right! I am a little bitch, no more!" Fluttershy said, pride standing strong in her voice. With her new-found pride shining brightly, the pegasus placed one hoof on the board of the scooter and two on the handlebars, using her fourth to kick and pick-up speed. With one swift kick of her leg, she was sent flying down the ramp, screaming hysterically. Unfortunately, as she neared the kicker ramp, the scooter toppled and fell out from beneath her hooves. She instantly smacked her face against the ramp with intense force and continued sliding up it, colliding with the fire-hoop. The shy pegasus was instantly set aflame and screamed in pain as she returned to her hooves and began frantically flailing her limbs in every direction. "HELP! I'M BURNING!" Fluttershy screamed, running around the warehouse. "Shit, did we get a medical team?!" Twilight asked. "N-No..." Rainbow Dash replied, her expression completely terrified. "Hang on Fluttershy, WE'RE COMING!" Pinkie shouted, sprinting towards the flaming pegasus Spike sighed and lowered the camera to his side. "Everytime we film a stunt something has to happen to fuck it up..." He said.
