Episode Eleven: Rainbow's Sweetie Drops Prank

It's a time of fun and pranks in Equestria. Sometimes the pranks themselves can be harmless and fun...but some can go too far and hurt somepony. The folks at the House of Pony love April Foals Day especially a few that loves the harmless pranks. But one prank is about to happen on this holiday...

-------------

Twilight waits as Spike came on stage to give out the introduction as usual, "And now...TWILIGHT SPARKLE!"

As Spike leaves, the audience applauds as Twilight trots onto the stage, speaking, "Hey! Happy April Foals Day, everyone," But as she goes faster to the spotlight, the mare yelps as she slips on some wax that somehow ended up on the floor, causing her to fall. The audience laughs at that.

As Twilight got up, she wonders what just happened. The mare spots Rainbow near Rarity's booth, laughing as she hold a can of wax, remarking, "APRIL FOALS, EGGHEAD!" It's obvious that the Pegasus pony was the one responsible for this prank.

As Twilight rubs the wax off herself, she ask sin amusement, "Thought that was funny, eh Rainbow Dash? Well, how about we take a look at a video tape that Fluttershy shows me of your comedy routine back in Rainbow Dash's E-Mails: Season One." Rainbow's eyes widen in horror.

"What; No, no, no, NO! YOU WOULDN'T!"

"Applejack, run that clip, will ya?"

"NO!" Rainbow screams frantically. Too late as Applejack runs a familiar clip.

-------------

We now see a young Derpy Hooves, who appears to have straight eyes, a bow in her mane and was called Ditzy Doo back then, talking into a microphone at a talent show at flight school which Rainbow herself used to attend before dropping out. The Pegasus pony appears to be talking better as she said, "Hey, thanks again to Blossomforth and her wonderful dancing! Okay, time for the comedy styling of Rainbow Dash! Our good speedster here at the flight school whose parents were..."

"Shut up and let us laugh at Rainbow Crash!" Dumb-Bell's voice yells in annoyance as we can see his namesake thrown at Ditzy, hitting her right on the head hard. This made her yelps as her eyes became crossed.

"Ha ha ha; Nice one, Dumb-Bell," Score's voice laughs at what Dumb-Bell did in amusement.

"Get off the stage, Derpy Hooves!"

"Duuuh, okay. Here's Rainbow Dash! Yay," Ditzy, now known as Derpy Hooves, said stupidly as she got off the stage.

Derpy got off the stage as a younger Rainbow Dash came on to general applause. The blue Pegasus pony lowers the microphone while saying, "Err, thanks Ditzy Doo...err Derpy, I guess...for not making a fool out of me."

The audience laughs as Rainbow continues, "Hey there, ponies and germs! Uh, how about the food in the cafeteria? Is it made out of cardboard or pizza?" The audience laughs though less pronounced. The filly looks uneasy. "Err, to be honest...it tastes bad. Well, uh...how about that joke? Derpy's eyes are now funny looking. What do you think? Nothing against her because they are scrambled...Derpy got scrambled eyes and..."

Suddenly Rainbow's wings sprang up, much to her embarrassment as the audience laughs. The pony groans, "Oh no! Not again! Oh, one day I'm going to drop out of this dump!"

Rainbow cries as she flew offstage but falls down upon reaching the edge of the screen.

THE END

---------------

The audience laughs as the clip plays. Surprise was laughing like mad while the Diamond Dogs laugh at their own table. The Grundles laugh madly, especially the Grundle King who laughs the hardest of his group.

"Wow! And I thought I was random!" Pinkie remarks in surprise. "That clip was funny the second time that I saw it!"

"Wow, talk about your wing malfunction." Twilight remarks to the audience with a slight chuckle.

"Well, well, looks like Twilight got you good." Rarity chuckles to Rainbow. The mare's jaw dropped as her eye twitched. Her friend is so going to get it for that.

"And now...the Cutie Mark Crusaders!"

As Rainbow continues thinking up an idea on getting back at Twilight, she fails to see three familiar figure who came in during the embarrassing clip: Diamond Tiara, her friend Silver Spoon and her bodyguard Maxin Talos. The leader overheard the laughter and saw how upset Rainbow is. Seeing this gives the bully an idea.

"Hey Rainbow; you ain't going to let Mini-Nightmare Moon's mother get away with it, are ya?" Diamond Tiara asks Rainbow with a smirk.

"Well, I...uh..." Rainbow begins to say but Diamond cuts her off.

"No way; Of course not! Come on, tis is April Foals Day after all! You should get back with the prank of the century, right Silver, Maxin?"

"Yes, Miss Tiara." Maxin Talos remarks with a grunt.

"Well, as much as I hate to go along with stuff like this, I think what Twilight did was a bit mean." Silver Spoon said with a sigh. Rainbow looks on thoughtfully. "Anyway, you want payback, right?"

"Of course you do, and Silver, Maxin and I will even help you out." Diamond Tiara said with another smirk on her face.

"Hang on, what is in it for me?" Rainbow asks Diamond suspiciously. The filly wouldn't want to help her or any of her friends...unless the landlord's daughter has got a plan in doing so.

"Well, here's what you gotta do." Diamond Tiara said as she whispers into Rainbow's ear. The mare's eyes widen then she gave out a wicked smirk.

"Diamond, you got a deal."

"Yeah, right," Silver Spoon said with a nod.

------------

In the seating area, Lyra Heartstrings and her friend Bon-Bon were enjoying their sandwiches that they ordered, having a fine as usual. Sweetie Drops burp making Lyra laughs a bit, "Oooh, good one, Sweetie Drops!"

"Thanks, Lyra! I love this food, especially the Roses with New Manure Flavor." Sweetie Drops chuckles while eating the mentioned food, much to Lyra's concern.

"Whoa, whoa; you know how that stuff does to your stomach, Sweetie Drops! Anyway, save some for me, will ya?"

"Hey, come on! It's not like something would happen, right?"

"Honestly, if books show me one thing, it's that something does go wrong when that was said." Lyra points out as she rolls her eyes. Just then, the mare felt a tap on her shoulder, turning to see a smiling Rainbow behind herself, "Oh hey Rainbow! What's up?"

Unknown to Lyra as her back was turned, Sweetie Drops yelps as Maxin grabs her and stuffs the Earth pony in a sack, running off quickly. The unicorn, still unaware of this, looks puzzled as she ask, "Uh, Rainbow Dash; You in there?"

As Lyra continues talking with Rainbow, she fails to see Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon arriving with a dummy Earth pony, which is a sack of flower with weird googly eyes, a fake snout and a mop for a mane, setting it down. Silver puts on a fake three blue-and-yellow-striped bows cutie mark before dashing off.

"Uh, Equestria to Rainbow; Say something cool and awesome, at least say anything!" Lyra exclaims to Rainbow in concern.

"Later, Lyra," Rainbow exclaims with a smile as she rushes off, leaving a cloud of herself behind. Lyra roll her eyes as she turns back to the Sweetie Drops dummy, unaware of what happened.

"I'm telling ya, Sweetie Drops. I usually find that Rainbow Dash weird even when she's a hero of Equestria. What do you think?" Lyra asks the dummy. She waits for an answer, both none came. "Hello? Hey, is this the silent treatment? What gives?"

In the rafters above, Diamond Tiara smirks as she looks at Maxin who is holding a bag that held the real Sweetie Drops, who is confused as to what's happening, inside; As Silver Spoon watch, Diamond Tiara laughs, "Oh yes; Now for Step B...the little prank that will shut down the House of Pony for good!"

"What? I thought that you were helping Rainbow Dash with getting back at Twilight Sparkle!" Silver Spoon exclaims in surprise and disbelief. "You didn't tell me that this was another one of your plans to shut the club down!"

"Hey, I never give up an opportunity, Silver Spoon. Come on. You too, Maxin."

"Yes, Miss Tiara." Maxin grunts as the trio rush off, Diamond Tiara laughs as she prepares for her new plan.

Lyra sighs at her and Sweetie Drops's table, saying, "Okay, I'm sorry about what I said, Sweetie Drops. I'm just..." The mare turns and notices something odd about 'Sweetie Drops'. "Wait, hang on. There's something odd about your cutie mark..."

As Lyra looks closely, she gasps as the cutie mark soon fell off the dummy, making her gasps, "Hang on! You ain't Sweetie Drops! You're a sack of flour with a bunch of stuff and a fake cutie mark to look like her! That means...OH NO! SWEETIE DROPS HAS BEEN KIDNAPPED; SWEETIE DROPS!"

Lyra rush out of her seat to look for Sweetie Drops, unaware of what's going to happen.

-----------

Psycho Pie goes up behind Golden Heart and Pinkamena but slips on a banana peel and bumps into Golden Heart, only for the head to come off making the bad guy freaked out but looks in the neck and something pops out making him leap right to the ceiling of the club house. Golden heart comes back to see her little sister in a Golden Heart suit making him look up and sees a bad guy clinging on to the ceiling.

Golden Heart says, "Guess you got to prank somepony."

Pinkamena adds happily, "Yep and boy that was a good one but I have a feeling that there will be a prank that will be planned by a Tiara wearing pony to close the club house."

"I see…well until it happens, let's watch the show."

Pinkamena then puts the Golden Heart suit and the Pinkamena decoy away as both the real Golden Heart and her watch the show.

On stage, Twilight smiles while saying, "And now, an April Foals' cartoon! No fooling!"

The audience applauds as the first cartoon of the night begins.

--------------

JUSSONIC PRESENTS...

A SPIKE CARTOON

Spike's April Foals

Rarity arrives at the library, curious. Spike called her over, wanting to give the white unicorn a surprise. As she trots up to the door, the mare knocks on it, causing the door to open up and reveal a smiling Spike.

"Okay, Mr. 'Get over Here Fast, Its Urgent' Sparkle, what's this big surprise that you wanted so much to show me?" Rarity asks Spike curiously.

"Rarity, this is the moment..." Spike said with a smile. The Dragon took out a remote and pushes a button on it, causing the candles to light up. He then put in a CD that plays a romantic theme.

Rarity look surprised as Spike pulls a rope, causing a poster with a heart to appear. The mare blush a bit, looking surprised and hopefully.

"Spike...could this mean..." Rarity asks with a blush. The white unicorn knew what is coming. Could it be that Spike is finally going to make the big leap? Asking her to marry him at last? Rarity did has a bit of a thing for him and Spike vice versa, but never knew that this day would finally come.

"Yes...today is the big day." Spike said as he pulls out a box. Rarity smiles and blushes some more. Spike is finally going proposing to her. She doesn't know what to say as the mare took the box. Rarity was nervous as she opens it to reveal...

A megaphone that came out of the box and blows right in her face, causing Rarity to jump back in shock; what the hay?!

Spike laughs madly, slapping his knee while saying, "Yeah, it's the big day all right! April Foals' Day! Ha ha ha," Rarity, recovering, frowns as she looks at the calendar. Yes, it is indeed, April Foals' Day, a time to make pranks on friends and family. The mare should've saw this one coming.

"Yes, yes, Spike, you gave me some hope but I supposed I'm the one who fooled myself," Rarity groans to Spike. "Just be glad that you're a friend and I like your sense of humor...or you can forget coming around the Carousel Baroque!"

As Rarity sat down, Spike pats her on the hooves while saying, "Sorry, look, how about I make it up to you? Let's go out t lunch together, my treat!" This make the mare look at him in suspicion. Is he trying to pull another one on her? "This is a date, no fooling this time; Just the two of us, come on!"

"Well...all right, I supposed I could give you another chance. But a little warning, I may come back to get you for the previous prank. Not now, but soon."

"Fair enough. Luckily Twilight got me a car for Dragons."

-----------

A while later, Spike and Rarity got into the car that Twilight has brought for her Dragon assistant. He tries to start it up, but looks puzzled. It isn't starting. What gives here?

"Weird. Maybe it needs a tune up." Spike said puzzled.

Rarity sniffs the air, looking concerned as she adds, "Or maybe some butter, darling."

"What? Why butter?"

"Is it just me or does your oil smells like popcorn?"

"Why ye..." Spike was interrupted as popcorn ends up popping into the car like mad, causing them to yelp in shock and confusion. As the two dig themselves out of the pile, the baby Dragon protests innocently, "Wasn't me this time, I swear!"

Just then, Spike heard laughing and looks to see a familiar snotty unicorn prince who is doing the laughing. The baby Dragon looks upset at this. He knows who this guy is, a certain creep who once gave Rarity a rough time at the Grand Galloping Gala. He is all looks but little to no brains at all.

"Blueblood," Spike exclaims angrily as Blueblood laughs some more.

"Oooh, April Foals, little wimpy Dragon," Blueblood laughs as he trots off in victory. Spike growls angrily.

"Oh, I will teach that creep a lesson, one that I'm sure that he won't forget anytime soon!"

As Spike jumps off the popcorn pile, Rarity is left alone, frowning as she remarks, "Well, so much for our bunch..." The mare then smirks secretly. "Still that will give me more time to get back at the little darling...Rarity may forgive but I don't forget."

Spike saw Blueblood jumping into a car made for him then smirks as he rushes over, putting a brick behind it. As Blueblood pulls the car back in reverse, he heard a thud, much to his confusion.

"What the hay was that?" Blueblood asks confused and concerned. He came out of his car. Before the creep could look out the back, Spike got rid of the brick and places himself behind the car, pretending to be dead. The unicorn took a look and gasps in horror upon seeing the 'prone' body of the baby Dragon. "No, no! Spike, little assistant of Twilight Sparkle! Speak to me!"

Spike tries to speak, pretending to gasping as if dying, "Oh man, that did it...I'm about to go...Blueblood. Take care of Rarity for me...tell my pals that I said goodbye, as well as Pinkie Pie who makes me smile...oh, and tell Rainbow Dash..." The Dragon looks like he's about to fall unconscious. "...tell Rainbow Dash."

"Yeah, yeah?"

"Tell Rainbow Dash...that she has...an ego the size...of her flank..."

With that, Spike fell down, pretending to be dead. Blueblood is more horrified. The Dragon is dead, all because of him. Twilight, his relatives and everypony else is going to give him Tartarus for this.

"Oh no, what have I done? I killed Spike!" Blueblood sobs in tears as he put Spike down. As the unicorn sniffs, he adds, "I know that I treated Rarity and everyone else as dirt...but you were somewhat my only friend!" Blueblood blows his nose, crying some more. "I must be alone...Blueblood must be alone with his grief! OH, WHAT HAVE I DONE?!"

Blueblood runs off, obviously to do some more mourning. Once he's gone and out of hearing range, Spike smirks devilishly as he got up and shakes himself.

"Ha ha ha, what a maroon; Man, that got to be one of my best April Foals' jokes ever," Spike laughs madly. He will make sure to tell the others about it later and let Blueblood think that he has killed the Dragon before Spike blows the big news.

Spike heads back into the library, satisfied. Unknown to him, his prank is about to backfire in a way that he wouldn't understand...

-----------------

Derpy arrives with some mail, putting some letters in the box before heading off. Twilight picks the mail up and came back into the library, calling out, "Mail call!"

Ben, Nyx, Spike and Phobos gathers around as Twilight hands them their mail. Spike got one letter, which is of interest, and opens it, saying, "From the estate of Photo Finish Last Wills and Testaments, please come to our agency right now to claim your inheritance of..." The baby Dragon gasps in surprise upon hearing the last part, "ONE MILLION BITS?! Yahoo, I'm rich!"

"Wait, rich?" Nyx ask Spike confused. "But the only family members that we know of is your grandfather, your evil Father and your brother...and one of them is dead!"

"I must've gotten a family member that I don't know of! Man, this is awesome!"

Spike rush out the door to head out to Photo Finish's law firms. Twilight looks a bit puzzled. Who in their right mind would leave her assistant a lot of money?

------------------------

At the law firms, Spike arrives and looks for the last Wills and Testaments room. He found the place and opens the door, seeing Photo Finish reading a newspaper.

"Excuse me, Miss Finish?" Spike calls out eagerly.

Photo Finish looks up and saw Spike, asking, "Ja? May I help you?"

"Yeah, I am Spike the Dragon, here to claim my inheritance of a million bits."

Photo Finish looks at Spike...then laughs madly, "Ha ha ha! Very funny, but you ain't Spike Ze Dragon."

"Huh? Come on; have what happened with Fluttershy made you a bit mad?" Spike asks Photo Finish in disbelief. "I am Spike the Dragon."

"Nein! Not possible. As you can read from ze paper, Spike Ze Dragon went up to zat Gem Cave in ze sky. He's dead."

Photo Finish shows a newspaper, pointing to a certain headline. Spike looks shocked as right before him is a subject that said 'Spike is at the Gem Cave in the Sky'. Not good. Blueblood must've grieved so much that he told everypony about the baby Dragon's death...except Spike isn't really dead!

"Wait, wait, I know what happened. Look, what happened was a joke that I pulled on Blueblood to get back for the popcorn prank in my car." Spike explains to Photo Finish with a sheepish smile. "See; An April Foals' joke."

Photo Finish looks skeptic, saying, "Right, not buying it."

"Come on, I got my own license, see?" Spike insists as he takes out his license, showing it to Photo Finish who looks at I carefully.

"Eh, so what; any fool would draw a baby Dragon on some paper, copy info from a real license and claims it to be ze real thing. Anyway, zat license is expired...just like Spike Ze Dragon."

"But I got the purple skin, green scales; the taste for gems, lust for Rarity and everything!"

Photo Finish of course frowns, saying, "Ja...but for all I know, it could be a disguise..."

"Ugh, come on! Could any pony do this?" Spike insists as he shoots out flames from his mouth. Then he spins around, showing some of his fighting moves from the war with Lorcan. Next, Spike takes a tub of ice cream and ate it, groaning due to his stomach ache. The baby Dragon somehow turns into his Spikezilla form and roars like mad.

Spike somehow changes back to his regular form, smiling to Photo Finish while asking, "Well? Does that convince you now?"

"Hmm...did you get any permission to impersonate Spike Ze Dragon?" Photo Finish asks unimpressed. "Twilight Sparkle wouldn't like zat at all."

Spike slaps himself. He got to try again so the Dragon rush out and came back with Rainbow, who looks confused as her friend pulls her away from her home in quite a hurry.

"Look, you know this pony, right?" Spike asks Photo Finish with a smile. Surely, the mare could recognize Rainbow Dash, right?

"Ja...its Spitfire," Photo Finish answered with a nod.

"What; hey, look lady, I am flattered that someone would mistake me for Spitfire but I am Rainbow Dash!!" Rainbow exclaims to Photo Finish in annoyance.

"Oh yes, ze one with an ego ze size of her flank. I believe Spike himself once mentioned zat before his passing."

Rainbow gave an annoyed look to Spike, who chuckles sheepishly while saying, "Heh heh. Just a joke; Come on, Rainbow Dash. Tell this stubborn pony that I ain't dead, okay?"

Rainbow frowns a bit as she glares at Spike...then started to get some ideas...

Fantasy Sequence

In her imagination, Rainbow saw herself as a hero of the Crystal Empire and of Equestria. She even sees herself performing the same Dragon like moves as him. Then we saw Rainbow surrounded by the Wonderbolts in a parade float, smiling eagerly.

End Fantasy Sequence

Rainbow stares at Spike as if in a trance...then smirks devilishly while turning to the lawyer, asking, "Uh, who is this guy? Never saw him before, nope." The mare decided that if Spike was thought to be dead, Rainbow could get a bit of a chance of being in his role a bit...as well as get back at him for the ego flank joke.

"RAINBOW," Spike exclaims in annoyance as he toss Rainbow away quickly, giving a nervous chuckle to the staring Photo Finish. "Okay, not the best pony for confirmation but I do know someone else!" The Dragon rushes out and came back with his brother Lorcan who yelps in surprise. "Lorcan, tell Photo Finish who I am!"

Lorcan looks over to Photo Finish then turns to his brother saying, "Well, according to some sources, you're dead...kinda like how I am supposed to right now."

"LORCAN," Spike exclaims as he throws Lorcan out. "Okay, okay, maybe not the best choice either..."

-------

A moment later, Spike came back with Pinkie, pointing to Photo Finish while saying, "Now here is some pony who will know that I'm me! Pinkie Pie, tell her who I am so we can settle this nonsense at last."

"Well, you used to be Spike the Dragon." Pinkie explains to Spike happily.

"See I...wait, hang on; 'Used to be'?! What are you talking about?!"

"Come on, didn't you see the paper?" Pinkie teases as she took a newspaper out showing a familiar newspaper but with a different headline and photo. "According to this, you got run over by a car and now is dead as a doornail...though I wonder how it's possible since Dragons aren't easily killed. And why dead as a doornail; shouldn't it be..."

"Pinkie Pie; if I was dead, how could I since I'm standing in front of you?" Spike asks Pinkie impatiently. The mare blinks a bit...then looks horrified.

"GAH; SPIKE'S A REAL GHOST! DASHIE WAS RIGHT!!!"

Pinkie screams and rushes through every wall in the building, causing face implants to be made on all of them. Spike gave a nervous chuckle to the glaring Photo Finish. So far, she isn't impressed or convinced by his claims at all.

"Okay, Pinkie is always...random. Come on, isn't there a way to prove that I am really Spike the Dragon?" Spike pleads to Photo Finish in concern. There must be a way to convince this stubborn photographer/agent/lawyer of the truth somehow.

Photo Finish smirks as she got out of the desk, going over to Spike while saying, "Well, if you are indeed ze real Spike Ze Dragon, you would be brave enough to take a hit..." The Dragon yelps as the mare hits him in the face hard. "...as well as tolerant of zis..." Photo Finish then grabs him by the collar, making him struggle. "...and be facing danger no matter what!"

With a smirk, Photo Finish now throws Spike to a flag pole, getting him stuck there, much to his surprise. As he stares at the mare, Photo Finish continues, "Ja; As well as being a famous Equestrian hero for ponies and Dragons all over!"

"Ugh! Enough! Million bits or not, I will not hang here and be made a fool out of by some photographer who got some extra jobs!" Spike growls angrily to Photo Finish. Enough is enough! "Got it?"

"Too late..." Photo Finish laughs...but not in her voice! She finally reaches around her mane...and pulls on a zipper, revealing herself to be a costume. After unzipping, Spike saw to his shock that 'Photo Finish' is really Prince Blueblood in disguise, laughing cruelly.

"BLUEBLOOD!"

"Ha ha ha! April Foals, Dragon!" Blueblood laughs at Spike in amusement. "You think I was stupid enough to fall for your silly prank? Even I of all ponies know that a simple car wouldn't finish off a Dragon, baby or adult! So I just played along and gave you that fake 'inheritance' thing to lure you here! Ha ha ha! I must say, the dead Dragon thing, nice idea. Thanks for giving me an idea to prank you again!"

"Why you..." Spike growls angrily. He can't believe it, his prank has backfired, allowing the baby Dragon to fall for one made by his rival!

Suddenly a knock came at the door, much to the two's confusion. Who is that? As they turn, the door opens and in came what appears to be the real Photo Finish. She came in and said, "Excuse me, gentle-colt and Dragon. I'm looking for Spike Ze Dragon who has inherited a million bucks." Spike looks surprised then smiles. The inheritance thing was real after all!

"Hey, I'm Spike the Dragon..."

"No, I am! Look!" Blueblood exclaims, interrupting Spike in anxiety. He may be rich but who said that a million bucks couldn't make him richer?

Blueblood spins around, wearing a poorly made Spike disguise while saying, "Whoa, dude!" He then quickly swallows some hot peppers, shooting out some flames from his mouth. The unicorn tries showing some of his fighting moves from the war with Lorcan though pathetically. Next, Blueblood takes out another tub of ice cream and ate it, groaning due to his stomach ache. The jerk somehow turns into Spikezilla form and roars like mad.

Once Blueblood changes back to normal, he grins to Photo Finish. The mare smirks as if convinced while saying as she moves aside, "Very well. Here is your million bucks..."

Blueblood looks excitedly, waiting for the million bucks. He got it all right...a bunch of deer (AKA bucks) stampede into the room and knocks him down, crushing the unicorn like mad. Spike watch on in amusement but looks a bit bored. Soon the afternoon and night passed by until it is now April 2nd.

As Spike watch on, the last deer crush Blueblood before leaving. The prince got up, groaning, "Well, a million 'bucks'. Fancy that..." He gave a little laugh before fainting to the floor.

Spike blinks as Photo Finish came over and smirk as...she pulls a zipper from her own mane! Turns out that this 'Photo Finish' is a fake and a costume as well, removing her disguise to reveal that it's really Rarity!

"Fooled ya, April Foals," Rarity giggles to Spike in delight, "I found out what Blueblood was doing so I waited for him to think that he got the last laugh before coming in to get back at both him and you for your pranks earlier."

"Whoa, Rarity, got to say, that was one awesome trick!" Spike exclaims with a smile. Rarity has got both him and Blueblood good. "Even I wouldn't have thought of that."

"Glad to hear that." Rarity said with a smile. Then she turns and prepares to leave the room...and Spike still hanging on the flag.

"Err, Rare? Aren't you going to help me out of here?"

"Nope, I think I will leave you here, give you a lot to think about; April Foals!"

"Uh, you do know that April Foals is over, right?" Spike points out to Rarity since the deer stampede took until April 2nd to be finished up.

"You got it." Rarity said happily as she shuts the door, leaving Spike hanging...literally, causing him to groan.

"Okay, I got to make a note to not mess with Rarity's emotions again as she always has ways of getting me back..."

THE END

A JUSSONIC PRODUCTION

----------------------

Once the cartoon is done, the audience applauds excitedly, that is a great one. Of course, the only one not paying attention was Lyra who is searching for Sweetie Drops like mad. Where could her friend be?

Rainbow meanwhile walks into the backstage, looking suspicious. Twilight is obviously planning another joke for her. The mare goes into the unicorn's dressing room, just in time to see Twilight closing a box. What is she up to?

As Rainbow came over to Twilight, she frowns while demanding, "Hey, egghead, what do you got in the box; Another April Foals' Joke on me?!"

"Oh, Rainbow Dash! Actually, no," Twilight insists while shaking her head to the skeptic Rainbow. "Don't worry. I made a Pinkie Promise that I'm done with the April Foals' jokes on you today. I'm sorry that I showed that video."

"Yeah, whatever..."

"Honest, I will make it up to you, really! Yours truly got something VERY special planned for you later!"

Rainbow frowns as she leaves the dressing room, slamming the door close. Yeah right. Obviously, Twilight was fibbing and is about to performed another April Foals' joke on her. Pinkie Promise, even the unicorn knows better than to bring that into a joke.

"Well, I got something planned for you too." Rainbow remarks with a devilish chuckle. Her plan, helped by Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon and Maxin Talos, will go as planned. The Pegasus pony must listen to what Twilight has in plan for her 'prank'...

And whatever Twilight is about to pull, Rainbow won't let her get away with it this time!

------------------

In the audience, Gilda, who has been cured of freaking out over Fluttershy and her animal friends, was busy at her table but yelps as Lyra rush over and opens her mouth, looking in while calling out, "Sweetie Drops? You in there," She closes the griffin's mouth before rushing off, much to Gilda's confusion.

Lyra rush over to the Diamond Dogs' table. Fido, Rover and Spot were about to enjoy a meal when the unicorn lifts the cover of their plate with them glaring as she calls out, "SWEETIE DROPS!" Lyra blinks as she saw a bird named Kyrie tied up with an apple in her mouth. "Okay, even I saw something wrong with this picture."

Regardless, Lyra put the cover back onto the table and run off. Pinkie rushes over and picks up the plate and Kyrie, much to the Diamond Dogs' annoyance as she exclaims, "Sorry! A bad joke by Psycho Pie! I will get your real meal in a moment!"

"Eh." Rover remarks with a grunt.

Golden Heart and Pinkamena were watching the show as they see Lyra. She says, "Sweetie Drops, where are you?"

She keeps looking as Pinkamena says to her big brother, "Big brother, I think that a little tiara wearing pony may have her."

Golden Heart agrees while saying, "I see but we just need to wait for a while. We will soon find out what she is up to sooner or later."

Pinkamena nods as she and him keep watching and wait. Lyra rush to the offstage while Twilight and Ben were talking. The mare with the lyre cutie mark in concern looks around with the stallion asking, "Lyra? What are you doing back here?"

"Sweetie Drops is missing!" Lyra explains to Ben frantically. "You two always know what to do so WHAT DO WE DO?!"

"Okay, okay, relax, Sweetie Drops. Take a deep breath so we can take this slowly. Now, if Sweetie Drops is missing, I will help. Perhaps your friend got lost in the crowd."

"That's crazy talk. This is Sweetie Drops we're talking about here. She always knows where she is."

-----------

"Uh, can any pony tell me where I am?" Sweetie Drops ask in concern. The mare finds herself on the rooftop with her flank stuffed in a vent that is an air conditioner leads into the seating room of the club.

"Oh, you're the roof, being a participant in Rainbow Dash's April Foals prank." Diamond Tiara explains sinisterly to Sweetie Drops as Maxin Talos put down a bucket filled with roses with new manure flavor. "Got the stuff ready, Maxin?"

"Yes, Miss Tiara." Maxin remarked to his boss sinisterly. "All ready for our 'friend'."

"And what am I doing actually?" Sweetie Drops ask Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon and Maxin with a frown, not liking where this conversion is heading.

"Come on, I will give you three guesses and the first two won't count." Diamond Tiara remarks to Sweetie Drops with a smirk.

"Well, from the looks of things, you probably stuffed my flank into the air conditioner vent and feed me the Roses with New Manure flavor since you know that it makes my stomach upset. And when I made a huge HUGE stink, it will cause everyone to leave the club and allows you to shut the place down. Did I get it right?"

Silver Spoon looks surprised as she comments, "Wow, I guess she is smart big time."

"Whatever, stuff her, Maxin!" Diamond Tiara orders as Maxin stuffs the roses into Sweetie Drops's mouth. "Hmm, we gotta get some more to really stink this place up."

"Ugh. You really aren't a nice filly, are you?" Sweetie Drops ask Diamond Tiara with a frown of disapproval.

"Well, to put it bluntly...I am never that nice! Ha ha ha! Maxin, make sure she doesn't go anywhere while Silver Spoon and I get some more of the good stuff."

As the Snotty Duo leaves, Sweetie Drops protests, "Where am I supposed to go? I'm stuck in here, come on!"

--------------

Near the kitchen back inside the club, Lyra and Ben spoke with Pinkie and Flutterhsy in hopes that they can tell them where Sweetie Drops is at.

"Oh, you're looking for Sweetie Drops?" Pinkie asks Lyra with a smile. "That's no problem! I just saw her!?"

"Really; where," Lyra ask Pinkie hopefully.

"Right over there, see?"

Pinkie points to a table...where the Sweetie Drops dummy is at. Fluttershy blinks while saying, "Uh, Pinkie Pie? I don't think that's Sweetie Drops."

"Right, that 'Sweetie Drops' is a dummy!" Lyra remarks to Pinkie with a frown.

"Hey, hey; Come on, there's no need to make fun of your best friend like that!" Pinkie snaps to Lyra with a frown, thinking that the unicorn is making fun of her friend.

"No, no! I mean that is a decoy! Some pony took Sweetie Drops and replaced her with the dummy! I'm looking all over for Sweetie Drops!"

"Oh my. That isn't nice." Fluttershy said in concern to Lyra.

"All right, Pinkie, Fluttershy, I will ask again. Have you seen Sweetie Drops around here?" Ben asks the two waiter mares with a nod.

"Well, no, not since I last served her and Lyra."

"Nope, not really and I would've known if I have saw her last! Can't help ya," Pinkie admits to her friends with a shrug. "Ooh, ooh! Ask Rarity! She has a knowledge of about every pony in here besides me!"

--------------

Ben and Lyra asked Rarity about Sweetie Drops, making the white unicorn pauses as she thinks while saying, "Sweetie Drops, Sweetie Drops...oh! You must mean that Earth pony who is your roommate, Lyra!"

"Yeah, and we..." Lyra begins to say but Rarity interrupts her.

"You know, I saw her in that talent show one time. She was really great!"

Ben roll his eyes as Rarity wrote some stuff up while rambling. The stallion said, "Ugh, I forgot that asking Rarity would make her go into a fan-girl ramble sometimes."

"Right, wanna sneak away?" Lyra asks Ben awkwardly.

"Right..."

Ben and Lyra sneaks away, though the mare puts the Sweetie Drops dummy in front of Rarity, who didn't realized what was going on as she kept on speaking, "To be honest, I thought for sure that she would win first place in that show. Sweetie Drops and Lyra are good, but the way that the former does it, darling, was incredible! Her book reading last week was my favorite, a total gem!"

--------------

Rainbow, backstage, got suspicious as she leans her ear against Twilight's door. She got to find out what her friend is up to involving what prank that the unicorn has got planned.

"Hey, Rainbow," Lyra is heard, making Rainbow jumps. She turns and saw the unicorn and Ben approaching, Lyra asks, "Have you seen Sweetie Drops anywhere?"

"Err, well, I haven't seen her..." Rainbow said with a nervous chuckle. Ben and Lyra looks concerned. It's as if she's hiding something. They don't know how right they are!

"Well, if you see her, let me know, okay?"

As Lyra and Ben trots off to continue looking for Sweetie Drops, Rainbow, upon being alone, smirks as she opens the door a small crack. The mare saw Twilight speaking with Pinkie as she shows the pink pony what is inside the box. Rainbow will find out for sure!

"Wow, you really think about giving that to Dashie?" Pinkie asks Twilight in surprise.

"Personally, Rainbow Dash deserves this more than any pony that I know." Twilight explains with a smile as she lifts up what was in the box. Rainbow's eyes widen in surprise and confusion as she saw that it's a golden trophy with an insignia labeled 'To Rainbow Dash'. What is this? "The first very House of Pony Mane Six Hardworker Achievement Award! Despite her ego at times, Rainbow worked so hard. She deserves a trophy."

"So wait, what's the catch?"

"No catch, I'm done with pranking, I even gave a Pinkie Promise and you of all ponies know that I wouldn't dare break a Pinkie Promise, even as a prank."

"Good point." Pinkie said to Twilight in agreement.

"Anyway, Rainbow needs to be felt loved and appreciated. From all the hard work that she has done, the mare needs it." Twilight adds with a smile to her friend.

Rainbow looks surprised while smiling. So Twilight wasn't going to prank her at all, she was going to give her a gift, an official award. The mare closes the door while sighing in happiness. Perhaps she was going to prank her right back...

Rainbow's eyes widen in shock as she remembers something. The mare yelps, "Oh horse feathers! I was going to...I gotta stop Diamond Tiara!" Rainbow flew off in hopes to stop the deadly prank before it's too late.

---------------

In the rafters above, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon hold some boxes of sandwiches that are Roses with New Manure flavor that the leader is planning on force feeding Sweetie Drops. Both of them are looking down to the audience below. The latter comments, "I still don't think we should do this, especially as a prank..."

"Come on, this prank will get back at Twilight for Rainbow...and shut this dump down for good." Diamond Tiara explains to Silver Spoon with a chuckle. She is confident that her plan will work big time!

Suddenly, Rainbow flew up to the two, protesting, "Wait, wait, Diamond, Silver! Stop the prank! I changed my mind!"

"Stop the prank?! Ha ha ha! Don't make me laugh!"

Diamond Tiara laughs as she hits Rainbow on the legs...a bit too hard as the mare ends up tripping off the rafters, falling down to the stage below. And what do you know, at this moment, there's Twilight coming on to give out the award.

"In honor of one of my great Mane Six friends and loyal partner, Rainbow Dash..." Twilight said with a smile. Suddenly Rainbow crash next to her, making a hole in the stage as a result. The unicorn looks surprised as she pulls her friend up, adding, "Who had...just graced us with her presence, here's one of her finer cartoons."

The audience applauds as the next short begins.

JUSSONIC PRESENTS...

A RAINBOW DASH STORY

Whitewater Rainbow

Inside her cloudy home, Rainbow smiles as she looks at her calendar. This is it, today is her day off and the mare plans to do so while fishing. The Pegasus pony got her fishing gear and boat ready; perfect, a good day for fishing in the Cloudsdale Lake, one of the places in the sky where Flying Fish lives at.

Rainbow hums as she holds her fishing gear, ready to take her departure. She opens the door but looks startled as a familiar stallion Pegasus pony is there, exclaiming, "Hey there, Rainbow Dash; Ready for our date!'

"Wait, we have a date?" Rainbow asks Soarin' in shock and alarm. What is he talking about?

"Come on, don't you remember? It's your day off which means that it's also Hearts and Hooves Day, our first meeting anniversary and my half birthday!"

"Huh? We met in July. Hearts and Hooves Day is in February and this is August. Plus, your half birthday is in the fall!

"And each time, you kept forgetting so you promised to make up for forgetting by scheduling all those days on your next day off, Rainbow Dash! You promised to take me out on a cool outing with every little detail taken care of." Soarin' reminds Rainbow as he combs his mane. "Come on, don't you remember?"

Rainbow gulps awkwardly; she was so busy getting ready, preparing for her fishing trip that her promise to Soarin' has slipped her mind. But what can the mare do to avoid getting her colt-friend upset for forgetting?

Then Rainbow got an idea on how to keep her promise to Soarin' while still go on her fishing trip. The mare hid the fishing gear while saying with an innocent smile, "Come on, of course I remembered! I would be a foal to forget again! In fact, I got one cool destination in mind."

--------------

Cloudsdale Lake is one of the greatest places for Pegasus ponies to fish in the sky, with rain water acting like a lake and Flying Fish. In a little canoe, Soarin' relax while smiling as Rainbow prepares her fishing gear. The Wonderbolt doesn't know that his filly friend planned a fishing trip; he thinks that this date is for real.

Rainbow doesn't want Soarin' to know that she has forgotten again so the mare said that this place would be great to have a romantic boat ride and have a nice day to themselves. The stallion didn't see her pulling out her fishing rod to cast into the water itself.

"This is wonderful, a romantic day at the lake. Very nice," Soarin' said while relaxing on his pillow.

"Right, glad you think so." Rainbow said with a nod. Of course, the mare isn't really paying attention. She is looking for some fish, smirking as some jump around in the lake.

Rainbow threw the cast that has a worm on a hook into the rainwater. Once the latter sank down, it came closer to the fish. It blinks as the worm blew a raspberry at him. This causes the fish to take out two pieces of bread and put it onto the hook then the fish begins to munch. Don't ask where fish can get bread underwater. This is Equestria, after all.

Rainbow smirks eagerly, she got a bite. As the mare prepares to reel in the fish that tugs at the line, Soarin' interrupts, "Hey, Rainbow, mind reading me a poem?" The mare yelps as she puts the rod down, smiling nervously while turning to her colt friend who hums while feeling the water. "Yeah, yeah, I know, that stallions should do it but I rather you do it because it fit the mood, nice and romantic."

"Err, you sure you wanna do so? Is now a..." Rainbow said nervously while seeing his rod shake a little. She gotta get that fish before he could escape.

"Come on, Dashie! Be a sport. Isn't this my special day?"

"Ugh, fine." Rainbow groans. Looks like she has no idea, unless the mare wants her love to know that she has forgotten again! Rainbow got out a book of poems, sitting next to Soarin' as she reads one, "Roses are red and violets are rich, now leave ma lone so I can fish!"

"Cool poem." Soarin' commented. Luckily for Rainbow, he didn't catch on to Rainbow's second (and probably doesn't care either way). The mare prepares to go back to the fishing rod that is shaking when Soarin' interrupts, "Hey, Rainbow?" The mare groans as she smiles nervously to him.

"Yeah, Soarin'?"

"The mood is really perfect. Of course, normally colts do this, but I notice that you never serenade me. How about playing me a romantic song?"

Rainbow sighs as she took out a lute, playing a few bars on it along with a bit of a romantic song. The mare was done and slams the lute, breaking the thing with Soarin' watching.

"Huh. Nice romantic song with a touch of rock, very nice." Soarin' commented. "You amaze me big time."

"Yeah, yeah, I know." Rainbow remarks as she tries to get back to the shaking rod.

"Hey, Rainbow?"

"Yeah, Soarin'?"

"All right if you rub my hoof," Soarin' ask eagerly as he held out one of his lower hooves to Soarin'. "It is sore big time and I need some rubbing."

Rainbow cringes but starts massaging Soarin's hoof, causing him to relax. The mare looks worried as she saw the rod shaking. Her fish is going to get away soon! Rainbow checks on Soarin' who had his eyes closed. Now is her chance!

Rainbow smirks as she sneaks over to the line with her upper hoof on Soarin's lower on...as the fishing rod was falling, the mare jumps and lets go, grabbing the line in time.

Of course, Soarin', noticing that Rainbow isn't on his lower hoof anymore, frowns as he calls out, "Yo, Rainbow! Babe," The mare pays no attention as she pulls on the line with the fish pulling. Rainbow was now sitting in a high chair, "Woo-hoo! Are you listening to me at all?"

Rainbow ignores Soarin' as she does her best to reel the fish that is trying to escape in. The stallion calls out in annoyance, "Rainbow Dash!" The mare is using a crane with a hook to get the fish in. Three fishes underwater is trying their best to hold onto the caught fish but the captured on soon jumped out of the water, landing into the boat.

"Finally, got one," Rainbow sighs in relief. Turning to Soarin', she then asks, "Sorry, what did you want?"

Soarin' frowns as he picks up the fish saying, "Listen. All right if we row upstream for a while? I mean, I like fishing as the next stallion but our romantic date is getting interrupted here. Not your fault anyway, plus this fish stinks!"

With that, Soarin' threw the fish back into the water. Rainbow screams as she flew after it, only to end up hitting a rock, causing her to fall into the water. The mare, recovering, swam up and got back into the boat. Soarin' watches as Rainbow shakes herself off dry.

"Well, you wanna go upstream?" Rainbow asks as she took out an oar, preparing to row.

"Yep; I am sure that you wanna look at the fish. Luckily, I brought my camera!" Soarin' commented as he takes a camera out. "That way, we can take a lot of cool pictures while having our romantic date, babe!"

Rainbow sighs in relief. Once again, the mare avoids trouble as her love didn't see the fishing gear. So far, so good...

----------------

As Rainbow row upstream in the Cloudsale Lake, Soarin' took a lot of pictures with her camera while humming 'Row Row Row Your Boat'. Although he is happy, his filly friend is another story. Rainbow looks upset, looking around to see a lot fish jumping all over. She wants to catch them but can't let Soarin' know what is really going on.

"A lot of fish here...I really wanted to fish..." Rainbow groans a bit in annoyance. As if to add more insult to humiliation, a school of fish jumps in front of her over the canoe. The mare then got an idea. Picking up an oar, Rainbow taps Soarin', getting his attention as she asks, "Hey, Soarin'? Wanna do some rowing for a while?"

"Awww, that's nice, Rainbow!" Soarin' exclaims as he took the oar from Rainbow. "How do I..."

Rainbow quickly flew off and picks up his fishing rod, casting it into the water with the jumping fish...but then they disappear when it was cast. The mare looks confused but kept waiting for the fish to bite.

Soarin' meanwhile put the oar's tip into the war, moving a little while causing the boat to move. The stallion smiles while saying, "All right, Rainbow, this is fun!" Of course, had Soarin' was looking, he would've seen a fork in the water road, the left leads to safer road. The right leads to bad waters with rocks....and the canoe is heading that way right now! "So am I going the right way, Rainbow?"

"Yeah, yeah, you're doing fine." Rainbow said, not really paying attention. If she did, the mare would've seen the signs that she was passing that said the following...

Danger!

Rapids ahead!

Enter at your own risk, come on!

All right, fine...

...if you wanna do this, fine!

But don't say...

...that we didn't warn ya!

Later, loser!

The last sign is the one that Rainbow hit her head against. The mare frowns while saying, "What the hay, what is..." The mare turns around and saw, to her horror, that the boat is on dangerous water!

Soarin', not paying attention, smiles eagerly while saying, "Cool! I can't believe you planned a river rafting trip for us! This is both romantic and so much fun!" Rainbow gulps in worry as Soarin' hugs her excitedly. The boat goes up and down the river, the stallion screams excitedly. Rainbow just jump up and down in the raft. "This is so much fun, Rainbow!"

Soarin' laughs as the hills of water came to a stop. The two Pegasi appears to be in calm waters now. Rainbow grabs the oars in hopes to row back, saying, "Give me those!"

Bad news for Rainbow, the forces of Cloudsdale appears to be alive, the hands of the river appears in the water (literally) and grabs the oars, breaking them before splashing Rainbow by having a wave make a form of a train, with a trout inside it, and splashes the boat. Soarin' cheers on though the mare is very annoyed.

"HEY!" Rainbow exclaims angrily while holding her hooves as if wanting to fight. "Come back so I can kick your flank!"

Of course, one of the rivers' hands tap Rainbow on the shoulder then made a fist that punches her right into the water. As she climbs back, the raft begins moving once more.

Soarin', unaware of what's happening, smiles while saying, "This is so cool, Rainbow...so soothing and romantic..."

Rainbow gulps as she put a seat belt on herself to secure the mare in the boat. Of course, one of the hands of the river flips the boat over. Soarin' manages to jump off the boat while landing on the upside down part of it in time; Regardless, the hands of the river high-five one another.

As Soarin' screams excitedly, Rainbow is underwater trying to get out of the seat belt to turn the boat right side up. Unfortunately, the poor mare got her head hit by three rocks, getting her whole body caught in a wave of cactus while three Quarray Eels surround Rainbow, zapping her. And to make matters even worst, cloud piranhas arrive and munch on her like mad.

Soarin', still unaware of his filly friend's danger, jumps up, causing the boat to turn right side up and lands in his correct position. Rainbow isn't so lucky; she looks like she herself has gone through Tartarus!

Soarin' saw something that makes him say, "Hey, check that out!"

Rainbow looks up, causing her eyes to widen her eyes in fear. Up ahead is a waterfall that is going up as if in a Roller Coaster Ride...and the two Pegasi are heading towards it. As the canoe went up, the two passed a sign that said 'Buckle Up', making Soarin' cheer wildly.

Rainbow passes another sign that said 'For the Ride of Your Life'. The mare gulps as the next one say 'because you're About to Go over The Falls!' and it has an arrow that punches down.

Thinking quickly, Rainbow look around to stop this ride then saw a little island nearby with a tree on it which the canoe passed. The mare took out an anchor that is in the canoe and threw it around the tree as the two ponies are going near the edge near a sign that said 'No Standing Or Flying'.

The good news is that the anchor seems to have work as the canoe stop; the anchor latched itself to the tree much to Rainbow's relief. The bad news, to the mare's panic, is that it dragged the said tree along for the right, sending the canoe right onto the edge.

Rainbow came closer to Soarin' while looking down. The waterfall must be so tall, the tallest one that falls down towards Equestria, even reaching into outer space. Weird, huh; anyway, the mare prays until the anchor and tree stops near the edge of the island. Rainbow sighs in relief. Again, a close one!

Soarin', on the other hoof, isn't happy. He tries to shake the canoe a bit while asking, "Come on, why did it stop?!" To Rainbow's alarm, the island was coming closer to the two, making her gulp. This won't end good. Sure enough, the boat begins to go down with the island following. Soarin' cheers while Rainbow screams in fear, the colt push towards toward the filly. "All right, here we go!"

For some reason, near the end of the waterfall was Pinkie who is ringing a bell with a sign near her that said 'Photos for 10 bits each'. A flash of light appears as Soarin' and Rainbow's canoe stops near her.

"Hello! Want a souvenir photo?" Pinkie asks the two ponies happily. Rainbow was too scared to even ask why her friend was even standing nearby.

Soarin' on the other hoof again takes the photo and looks at it. He frowns while looking at it, saying, "Aww, man Rainbow! You had your eyes closed; Looks like we're going to go up again!"

Rainbow's eyes widened as the canoe somehow pulls itself up along with the island falling near them. It fell once more as the picture was taken again. The two ponies stop near Pinkie as Soarin' took the new photo. He smiles as this time Rainbow's eyes were opened in this shot.

"Much better, okay pay her, Rainbow." Soarin' insists while taking the photo. Rainbow, shaken, took out 10 bits and gave it to the smiling Pinkie.

Soon the ride continues as the two ponies scream (though Soarin' is cheering while the other is freaked out). They reach the bottom of the waterfall before both the canoe and the island fell in. As if in an impossible way, the canoe survives, ending up on the other side of Equestria. The island pushes it off the edge, causing both ponies to land right on the island itself.

"Wow, this is a great day, Rainbow." Soarin' said, smiling as he takes Rainbow, hugs and kiss her. "You are the greatest filly that I could ask for."

"Yeah, no problem, Soar," Rainbow said with a smile while relaxing. Okay, so a day of fishing is wasted but at least she kept her promise to Soarin', that's a plus, right?

"And best of all, we're stuck here. Yeah, we can fly but why would I want to go anywhere right now? Both our wings are tired! Still, you can read me poems, sing me songs and rub my hooves with no interruptions!"

"Aw, horse feathers."

Soarin's right, it will take a while for both Pegasus ponies' wings to recover from what happened. And as if to taunt Rainbow some more, a lot of fish jump around in the lake. She groans, what a day.

THE END

A JUSSONIC PRODUCTION

------------

With the cartoon over, the audience applauds wildly; another good one to remember.

------------

Once the audience is done applauding, Twilight look at the audience and nods as Koga came up to her with the award. She took it, saying, "Well, that cartoon is a sample of Rainbow Dash's years of comedy entertainment, but at the same time her adventure and loyalty. Today, we at the House of Pony honor her."

The audience applauds. Rainbow watches from offstage, feeling embarrassed as well as guilty. She doesn't deserve that reward. The mare is about to pull a prank that could shut the club down and lose her friends...all because she thought Twilight was going to prank her. Some friend Rainbow is.

Rarity, smiling, trots up while saying, "And you thought Twilight was going to get you with another prank.

"Yeah...I guess I was wrong, huh?" Rainbow asks Rarity with a nervous chuckle. The mare looks to see Lyra still looking for Sweetie Drops, having no idea that her best friend is about to be use as a prank right now!

"Sweetie Drops; Sweetie Drops," Lyra calls out in worry as she passes by Rainbow and Rarity.

Rainbow looks at the stage, Twilight is about to introduce her out. The mare frowns, she gotta stop that mark before it's too late. If Diamond Tiara won't stop it, then the one who was involved, besides Silver Spoon and Maxin Talos, will!

Rainbow flew up, much to Rarity's notice and surprise as she ask, "Rainbow? Where are you going?"

"I gotta fix something!" Rainbow exclaims as she heads up the stairs that goes to the rooftops.

As Golden heart and Pinkamena keep watching, Boxco had a pie and was going to throw it at Pinkamena. But she turns her head to the bad guy; you could see the cutest eyes that you ever seen at the bad guy. As if in a trance, Boxco makes the pie hit his own face and he falls flat.

As Pinkamena turns her head back and her eyes go back to what they were, Golden Heart says to her little sister, "Someone was going to throw a pie and you gave him the cute face with the eyes?"

"Yep. Nopony or any can resist it but let’s watch and see what is going to happen." Pinkamena said playfully.

Golden Heart nods as both he and his little sister go back to watching the show.

--------------

Diamond Tiara laughs as Maxin kept stuffing Sweetie Drops with more Roses in New Manure Flavor. Silver Spoon sighs, "How much longer?"

"Not much. Sweetie Drops gotta keep eating these Roses with New Manure Flavor. It's only a matter of time now!" Diamond Tiara explains to Silver Spoon with a devilish smirk. Soon Sweetie Drops will be so full of gas, this club would be declared a hazard zone!

"Hey!" The trio turns to see an angry Rainbow marching up to them. "Didn't I tell you to stop this?! I don't wanna prank Twilght anymore!"

"Oh come on! Don't tell us that you're chicken out now!"

"Right, Miss Tiara is too far ahead to back out now, pony!" Maxin remarks with a grunt. "We're shutting this club no matter..."

"MAXIN," Diamond Tiara exclaims angrily as Maxin covers his mouth in shock. Too late, the minion has blown the plan.

"Ugh, I knew it! You are still at it!" Rainbow exclaims angrily. Diamond Tiara was using her in her plan to shut the club down and the mare felt for that bullying filly's lie! "Get out of my way!" The mare flew up to Sweetie Drops and grabs her. "Hang on, Sweetie Drops! This is my fault but I will get you out of here!"

"Maxin, stop her!"

Maxin Talos grunts as he tries to grab Rainbow while the mare was trying to pull Sweetie Drops out. But the bodyguard misses as the two mares were pulled in by the air vent, sending them both travelling along the pipes.

--------------

Twilight looks concerned. Where is Rainbow Dash? She was supposed to come out on stage for her reward. Suddenly everyone in the room heard noises coming from the air vent. To everyone's surprise, both Rainbow and Sweetie Drops fell to the stage near Twilight.

"Sweetie Drops, you're alive!" Lyra exclaims happily as she saw her best friend on stage and rush over to hug Sweetie Drops.

"Yeah; Rainbow saved me from a fate that was going to be awful!" Sweetie Drops explains to Lyra happily.

"Well, not only is Rainbow Dash one of my good friends in Equestria, she is a hero too as the mare has shown once more!" Twilight exclaims as she picks up Rainbow before handing the mare her award. Rainbow blush and gave a smile as the audience smiles.

"Yeah, yahoo! Nice work, Rainbow Dash! Woo!" Fluttershy cheers on wildly.

"Yeah, Rainbow is good hero all right for saving me! It isn't her fault that she teams up with Diamond Tiara to kidnap me and tries to use me to stinsk everyone out of the club in the first place!" Sweetie Drops adds suddenly and unintentionally. Suddenly the music stops as everyone looks at Rainbow in shock, making the mare frowns. Sweetie Drops, realizing her mistake, said, "Oh, sorry! Did I give that away? I'm sure Rainbow didn't mean it even though she teamed up with Diamond Tiara because she thought Twilight was trying to prank her in the first place."

"Rainbow," Twilight exclaims angrily.

"Sorry, Rainbow."

"Hang on. Twilight, I could explain..." Rainbow said to her friend nervously. Hoo boy, suddenly the mare turned from hero to zero in seconds thanks to Sweetie Drops's big mouth. "I thought you were going to pull another prank."

"I can't believe it and I told you that I Pinkie Promise!" Twilight exclaims angrily as she took the award back.

Suddenly Sweetie Drops's stomach growls, much to the mare's worry as she said to Lyra, "Err, Lyra?"

"Yeah, Sweetie Drops?" Lyra answers, not liking the sound of that growl at all.

"I don't feel so good. Sweetie Drops had her big goon Maxin stuffed me with too much Roses with New Manure favor." Suddenly the mare begins to shake, much to everypony's alarm.

"Gah; I was afraid of this! Everypony, head for cover! She's going to blow!!!"

The audience and staff members rush for safely. Tank the Tortoise yelps as he hides in his shell. Derpy screams out, "Let's get out of here, Dinky!" She grabs her daughter Dinky Doo, flying off with her.

Most of the Earth ponies from Ponyville rushes out, except for Hay Fever, the pony with a cold, whose sneezes then groans, "Eh, I probably can't smell it anyway."

Rainbow screams in alarm as she grabs Sweetie Drops, yelling, "Don't go! I will take the hit!" It's her fault that the Earth pony is about to 'blow' and the Pegasus pony will take the hit for everyone!

"Rainbow, wait!" Twilight exclaims in horror. Too late, Rainbow flew so fast that she took Sweetie Drops right out of the club.

Outside, a big explosion is heard as two certain ponies scream. As the Mane Six, Soarin', Ben and Nyx rush to the entrance, Sweetie Drops, all better, came in, saying, "Do yourselves a favor. Don't go out there for an hour and a half. It really stinks outside right now."

As Sweetie Drops trots off, Rainbow came in. The poor mare is traumatized, dizzy and looks like she has gone through Tartartus from what happened when she took the full stench of the blast.

"Oh, Rainbow, are you okay, honey?" Soarin' ask Rainbow in worry.

"Yeah, luckily I'm used to it." Rainbow explains to Soarin' with a groan as her colt friend put a blanket around her.

"Blast it! Stupid Pegasus pony!" Diamond Tiara exclaims furiously upon arriving with Silver Spoon and Maxin Talos. "You ruined everything!"

"Another one of your schemes to shut downt he club again?" Twilight ask Diamond Tiara though the purple unicorn already knows the answer.

"Yeah, it would've worked too if it weren't for that meddling blank flank lover! Get her, Maxin!"

Maxin grunts as he prepares to punish Rainbow for her interference. But then a familiar alicorn is heard, "Ahem, lad?"

"Huh?" Maxin turns around to see Brave Heart and his jaw drops, this Alicorn's even bigger and stronger than he is, "Aaaaaaahhhhh! Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon. Save me. Save me!"

Maxin hides behind the bullies, much to their annoyance. Diamond Tiara looks annoyed as she snaps, "Maxin, you big baby! It's just Brave Heart."

"Yeah, he's just a dumb Scots pony." Silver Spoon agreed, though she's only doing it to stay on her friend's good side.

"I know that, but you kids didn't tell me that he was b-b-b-b-b-bigger and stronger than me. He's a giant compared to me. We're talking King Kong big!" Maxin exclaims to his boss and Silver Spoon, trembling with fear.

"Boo!" Brave Heart boos at Maxin as he scares him.

"I can't take anymore of this, fillies. I'm getting outta here!"

Maxin runs off in a major gallop, causing Diamond Tiara to shout out, "Come back here, you stinking coward!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! And stay out of the House of Pony forever, ye muscle bound wee colt!" Brave Heart laughs after the fleeing coward in amusement.

"Diamond Tiara, I think it's time for you to leave right now!" Twilight exclaims to Diamond Tiara furiously.

"Err, wait. Would it help if I say that I thought that Diamond Tiara was going to prank ya in the first time at first but didn't realize until it was too late to back out of her real plan?" Silver Spoon asks Twilight in worry. Even staying on Diamond Tiara’s good side has its limits!

Brave Heart pauses then said, "Works for me, lass! Diamond Tiara, out ye go!"

"What?! Out there, no, no! My sensitive nose," Diamond Tiara protests in horror and worry.

"Yeah, yeah, and I'm calling your father! Out," Twilight snaps as Brave Heart grabs Diamond Tiara and threw her out of the club via his magic. The filly gasps in the stinky air and gallops off in humiliation and defeat.

"Gah! No, blast it! Stinky...air...gasp!"

--------------

After some time, we see Golden Heart and Pinkamena as the pink pony says, "Well looks like the club house is safe from one heck of a stink bomb."

"Indeed but now we wait for the outcome." Golden Heart said to Pinkamena with a nod.

Pinkamena nods as she and her big brother watch. Since the outside area is too stinky to go outside until it's clear out, the guests stay around for free until then. At their table, Sweetie Drops spoke with Lyra, asking, "Do you really miss me, Lyra?"

"What? With company like this! Of course I miss ya, you Earth lug! Come here!" Lyra laughs as she hugs Sweetie Drops a bit too tightly.

"Gah, too tight, too tight!"

At least, the guests saw this as a good sight that the two friends are reunited once more.

------------

Twilight frowns at Rainbow offstage, the mare is apologizing with all her mind for her role in the prank that would've close the club down for good.

"Come on, Twilight, I was on my hooves, I cried, I wrote a written apology and all that. I am really sorry for what I did, really!" Rainbow pleads to Twilight. "I didn't even know what Diamond Tiara was up to. Please, may I please have my word?"

Nyx, who is with the two duo, spoke, "Come on, mommy, Auntie Dashie is really sorry. Can't you forgive her? This whole thing has gotten too far, right?"

Twilight sighs as Rainbow finishes apologizing.

"Guess I can't really blame you... after all, yeah, we all tend to mock and humiliate you on a regular basis... Even when you get your ego out of control, I often forget to talk to you about it, and go right to the 'humiliating lesson' thing, even if we always try to talk about any issue anypony else would have... I mean, when Applejack got all stubborn, I insisted on talking to her despite all the problems she was causing. Same with Rarity or Pinkie when they go too far with their antics; we never humiliate them but try to discuss the problem with them first." Twilight groaned a bit at this. "For Celestia's sake, even when I go too far with my own issues, you and everypony else take the dialogue option before anything else."

Twilight smiles as she said, "Nyx is right of course. We all learned our lesson about going too far in April Foals' pranking." The mare thus gave the award back to Rainbow who kisses the statue with glee.

Spike nods as he gives the ending commercial announcement, "The House of Pony's fresh smelling air is courtesy of..."

---------

The screen turns on, showing Tiddly Wink smiling while holding a spray can of fresh smelling air.

"Breezy Blossom's Air Freshener, holding that nice pine fresh smell!"

We now see Woebegone near some flowers that withed as he smells himself in shame.

"Hobo odors got you down big time?"

Now Tiddly Wink flew in, spraying Woebegone to make him fresh, causing the flowers to rose up happily, making the hobo smile.

"Our deodorizing forest scenes are guaranteed to even sink the stinker!"

We see Discord frowning in his world of chaos, not liking the smell at all.

"Smelly chaotic stuff clogging your sinuses?"

Soon Tiddly Wink uses the same spray to spray around the home. Discord grin as it's more happy and forest like, just like Fluttershy's cottage.

"Why, there's no stench in the world or dimension too tough for these professionals!"

We now see a picture of the spray can.

"Breezy Blossom's Air Freshener! All natural and in glorious Technicolor!"

We now see a picture that shows Sweetie Drops with stink waves, blocked by a red sign with a slash. Spike spoke in a low voice, "Smelly Earth ponies may be deodorized at an additional cost."

As the show comes to an end, Twilight smiles at the applause while saying, "See you soon! Unless this funny pony ends up trying to sabotage the show again," Sure enough, the screen is turned on to show Rainbow's comedy routine frome arlier once more, "Sorry, Pinkie Pie! I know I Pinkie Promised, but I cannot resist!"

Pinkie giggles while exclaiming, "No problem, I can't resist either!"

Twilight yelps as she saw Rainbow flying at her angrily, causing her to turn tail and run. The angry Pegasus pony, holding her statue, screams, "YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THAT!"
