Chapter 5: Feud between Muppets
In Muppets Lab, Bunsen is there as Beaker is testing out a familiar device. He spoke, "Oh, hello, folks. Welcome to Muppet Labs, where the future is being made today. I am Doctor Bunsen Honeydew here with my assistant Beaker."
"Meep meep meep," Beaker said, giving a salute to Honeydew.
"Yes, we are so excited to show you my latest invention which shows how the Mane Six from Equestria came here. Here to help is the leader of the Mane Six, Twilight Sparkle!"
The audience applauds as Twilight, in a lab coat and glasses came in with a smile. She spoke, "Thanks, Dr. Honeydew. Now then, my friends and I were sitting at the library, minding our own business when we got pulled in here by pure vacuum suckage. Well, today, we decided to pull something from Equestria without it."
"Beaker," Bunsen asks as Beaker holds up a device with has a stretching arm. "With this next device, we will pull in any item from Equestria with no problem. Let the testing begin!"
Bunsen pulls the lever on the device causing a black hole to appear. Beaker push the button on the arm device and it stretches into the black hole.
Now in the home of Lyra Heartstrings and Sweetie Drops, Lyra is heard calling from another room, "Sweetie Drops? Have you seen my hat?"
"Yeah, it should be..." Sweetie Drops begins to say. Just then a black hole appears with the arm grabbing a hat before pulling it away from sight. The black hole disappears as Sweetie Drops turns, looking confused. "...right here?"
Back at Muppet Labs, Beaker pulls in a familiar hat with the arm. Twilight chuckles, "Looks like somepony's missing a hat. Okay, next test."
Bunsen makes another black hole appears as Beaker uses his stretching arm to push it into the black hole.
In a room, Lorcan, in disguise was watching with Michael Trotter, the disguised Dragon say, "I still say I ain't going to reveal myself until Twilight loses her attitude for me."
"Well, Luna insists otherwise..." Michael Trotter was interrupted when a black hole appears, a familiar arm grabs him, "What the buck?!"
Lorcan yelps and grabs the Royal Guard as the two are pulled into the black hole, finding themselves in Muppet Labs. The audience laughs as Bunsen, noting this, comments, "Looks like we got some visitors."
"Hey, do I know you?" Twilight ask the disguised Lorcan suspiciously.
"No...and on a bigger note, RUN!" Lorcan, in a disguised voice, yelps as he runs off with the audience laughing.
"What the b..." Michaelr begins to say but Twilight interrupts him quickly.
"No, not on a family show! Just go!" Twilight insists as she pushes the Royal Guard off the stage. "How about 1 more test before we bring things to a close?"
"Right, go ahead, Beakie!" Bunsen insists as he made one final black hole appears.
Beaker meep as he prepare the stretching arm device and pushes the arm in to grab something; The Muppets pulls it out...then screams in alarm as a tentacle came out of the black hole, grabbing Beaker and trying to strangle him.
"Beaker, put that back! You don't know where it's been!" Bunsen scolds Beaker. The Muppets laugh as the assistant tries frantically to fight off the tentacle.
"Well, that's all for Muppet Labs. See you next time, though not from me." Twilight said sheepishly as she quickly helps in saving Beaker from the mad tentacle.
--------------
"Okay, this is seriously messed up!" Michael complains as he and Lorcan came back stage. "Where are we?!"
"I don't know...and I don't think we will get back to Equestria anytime soon." Lorcan said seriously to Trotter. At least as long as his cloak and hood are on, no one would recognize him, right?
"Well, I say b..."
"No language, no language!" Kermit insists in concern, pushing Michael and Lorcan along quickly. "This is a family show, no language."
Michael groans as he and Lorcan heads off. Scooter returns to Kermit, sighing, "Oh, it's no use, chief. Walter and Rizzo won't come out of their dressing rooms. They are still mad at each other."
Kermit looks concerned. He doesn't want any fighting to occur along his cast and friends, so how will there be a way for Walter and Rizzo to amend their differences?
"Well there must be a way to help those two get along." Kermit spoke off in thought.
"Hey, I got an idea! Let’s have them both be in charge to pull the right stage switch for our next scene." Gonzo spoke in having an idea that could help out.
"What next scene?" Kermit asked in not following this.
"Well I talk it over with Rarity & Spike, and they wanna star in a ranch scene with me, in living out how the Spain folk care for their bulls." Gonzo pointed out a plan in where he and those staring with him, go on stage for a new scene.
"Um gee, isn't that almost like the scene about the running of the bulls?" Kermit spoke in having a bad feeling this act might be too much like what Gonzo asked in the past.
"Nah, that's the beauty, I bring the bulls in, NOT wearing red, then Rarity & Spike come out wearing red, the CMC will wear bull disguises to give a chase to us. We tell Walter & Rizzo to watch the switch so we get the right bulls, it'll be fine, what can go wrong?" Gonzo explained his randomly weird plan in how they can help their pals out.
"Um, well, alright, Scooter, get the stage set please." Kermit slightly shrug off in feeling that plan couldn't be any worse than not doing nothing.
"Already on it chief," Scooter responded in hearing this.
Soon the group went into their places, hopefully this plan to get Rizzo and Walter to get along works...they hope.
Gonzo came up to Rizzo's dressing room and knocks on the door; the rat snaps, "What is it?!"
Gonzo opens the door, grinning as he said, "Good news, Rizzo! We got something for you for the next scene. We want you to watch the switch so we get the right bulls!"
"Why should I? Can't you get Walter to do it?"
"Yeah...Walter can't do it. He's...stuck in the toilet."
"'Stuck in the toilet'?" Rizzo ask Gonzo, arching an eyebrow at this, "You serious?"
"Would I lie?" Gonzo ask Rizzo innocently, making the rat scoffs. "Come on, please, do this and I will give you all the cheese that I kept in my fridge."
"Give me 50 bucks and I will consider both!"
Gonzo smiles a bit. Outside Walter's room, Kermit knocks on the door and opens it, speaking, "Walter! We need you to watch the switch for Gonzo's next sketch."
"Why? I am useless, always am." Walter groans as he sat in his seat in depression. "I will just push the background character out..."
"Come on, you won't be on the scene. And Rizzo is letting you do it!"
"He is?"
"Sure!" Kermit exclaims, thinking of a lie and doing so quickly. "Rizzo felt bad for his behavior that he wants you to do this."
Walter blinks and looks concerned. Rizzo seems to have changed his mind quickly, hadn't he? The newcomer shrugs while saying, "Well, I guess if Rizzo said it's all right."
Kermit nods as he closes the door in relief. So far, so good but the frog wonders what would happen if Walter and Rizzo finds out the truth the hard way.
----------------------
At the moment, Chase, still in his Shadow Dragon form, moves about to look for a place to transform back into his civilian form when suddenly, a metal hand reached over to grab him by the tail.
"Hugh? What!" Chase yelped before he could do anything, as he was soon pulled too quickly to where he was thrown in....a WASHING MACHINE.
The washing machine was looking a bit scientific as it had metal hands reaching around, grabbing used and taken off costumes, wings, you name it, and shoving it in to be washed and then sent directly by a link tube towards a dryer system. Too bad Shadow Dragon was seen spinning around and around until it look like he was getting dizzy. And soon, Bunsen & Beaker arrive on the scene to check on their invention.
"Well Beaker, the costume wash-o-matic & dryer Mark V, as in roman word for five, is working very profoundly." Bunsen spoke in seeing their device working perfectly, or so it seem.
"Meep-meep, meepmeepmeep." Beaker spoke in pointing at something fishy in the dryer.
"What's that you say, you think someone is inside the dryer." Bunsen asked off puzzled to here this sorta claim at the moment.
"Meep," Beaker responded with a nod in being truthful here.
Soon the two opened the dryer as it dump out a bunch of costumes and then popping out of the pill was Chase, in his normal looking disguise, but seem a bit dizzy.
"Uuuaaghh," Chase groans from holding his head; that was NOT a pleasant experience.
"Why if isn't Chase the Warrior. How did you ever get in there?" Bunsen spoke in finding this a surprise feat, how did Chase get in the wash?
"Believe me, I wish I knew. Burp," Chase responded before he suddenly burped, and let out bubbles, much to his surprise; and to his confusion.
"Meep-meep, meep," Beaker was saying something to which earn some attention.
"Oh that's right, he was wearing that costume from earlier, dreadfully sorry, you must have not taken your outfit off quick enough, our machine registered that you were an unoccupied object." Bunsen responded in following Beaker's words of what happened to Chase and of how this incident occurred.
"You don't say. Well, I'm leaving." Chase rolled his eyes in learning what happened as he got out a bit while feeling a bit dizzy to move away.
"Take care..." Bunsen responded to Chase while Beaker was grabbing hold of the costumes until....
"MEEP-MEEP; MEEEEEEEPPP," Suddenly, Beaker was caught by a metal hand to be put in the washer as it saw him with a costume and thought that he needed to be wash; oh boy.
As Chase was leaving the scene of the goofy scientist, he felt like that encounter was almost too close to his long explanation of things that would lead to too many questions, both for the Muppets & the ponies of the Mane Six party.
"That was too close for comfort; I'll need to think up an excuse for where I put such a convincing costume of myself. Burp...." As Chase spoke this with a serious face, he suddenly let loose more bubbles from a burp; much to his annoyance that thanks to the Muppets, he's gone and gotten a silly issue that's likely a bad case of the hiccups. "Ugh, but first, I need to find out how to get rid of this silly burping bubble gag without using any magic that give me away." He can't use magic as a disguise Earth pony, draw too much attention, he'll have to figure out some other way to get rid of this, for now...it will be a funny thing to be seen until he can most likely get back to Equestria.
With that, Chase leaves the scene while he burps out more bubbles of a silly development, looks like even an undercover foe from a villain's side is gonna be enduring a silly issue while hanging around with the Muppets.
------------------
Kermit is seen going out to the crowd to announce the next show.
"And now ladies and gentlemen, time for Gonzo's Spanish Bull Ranch, staring Rarity and Spike! Yeeaaahhhh," Kermit announced off to say while making a cheery sound before leaving the stage.
As the curtain pulls back from a drumroll, we see what looks like a prop of a Spanish ranch where there is a shed with a rotating sign that says what bulls are gonna come out. As it showed between 'Angry Bulls' and 'Playful Bulls' that let them out in a fence gate on the stage before they were hearing a cow-bell that lead them back in. And the audience saw even the CMC; Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, and Nyx disguised as cute little bulls that were playing around. Now Gonzo was coming in wearing a Spanish outfit of a bull fighter while Spike and Rarity wore RED outfits and accessories.
"Welcome to my ranch, how do you like it?" Gonzo responded off in how his guests like his ranch.
"Yeah, I'd like some ranch...on my salad." Rarity giggles, making the audience laughs a bit.
"Right, what's the name of this place anyway?" Spike asked Gonzo curiously.
"Waht Ranch." Gonzo said to Spike.
"This Ranch; we want you to tell us the name of your ranch." Spike explains to Gonzo again.
"Waht Ranch." Gonzo answers again, much to Spike's annoyance, making the audience laugh.
"This one; How can you not know the name of your own ranch," Spike asked Gonzo in irritation.
"Oh, I know the name of the ranch, I do." Gonzo explains to Spike some more.
"Then mind telling us what the name of your ranch, darling?" Rarity asked Spike gently.
"Waht Ranch." Gonzo said to Rarity, making her confused.
"This one, the ranch right here," Spike exclaims to Gonzo, about to lose it. How could this Whatever not know the ranch when he's clearly standing in it?!
"No, no! That's the name of my ranch, see?" Gonzo explains clearly as he points to a sign nearby which is labeled 'Waht Ranch'. The audience laughs loudly at this.
"Ohhh," Rarity exclaimed in understanding, "Now we get it."
"So tell us your name." Spike said to Gonzo.
"Whu," Gonzo remarks with a grin.
"Your name, tell us your name." Spike said to Gonzo impatiently.
"Whu," Gonzo answers as the audience laughs.
"Look, what is your name?" Spike asked Gonzo getting very annoyed.
"No, that's the name of this ranch." Gonzo corrects Spike, thinking he is referring to the name of the 'Waht Ranch'.
"I know what the ranch's name is! Can you tell me what your name is?!" Spike asked Gonzo, getting more impatient.
"Wrong, Whu is my name." Gonzo corrects Spike, making the Dragon more frustrated.
"How should I know; I don't know!" Spike exclaims to Gonzo angrily.
"Oh, he's my helper hand!" Gonzo remarks to Spike, making the audience laughs.
"Who is your helper hand?" Rarity asked Gonzo curiously.
"No, that isn't his name." Gonzo remarks to Rarity, making the audience laugh some more.
"What isn't his name?" Rarity asked Gonzo confused.
"Precisely; His name is I. Don Know." Gonzo remarked, loving this part.
"Well, who are you?" Spike asked Gonzo, about to lose.
"Correct!" Gonzo remarked, making the audience laughs. "Whu is my name."
"I don't know." Spike said with a sigh.
"Helper hand," The two remarks at the same time, making the audience laughs some more.
"Seriously, my name is 'Whu', said so on my ID card!" Gonzo exclaims showing his ID card which list his name as 'Jon Whu'.
Rarity arches an eyebrow to the audience, commentating, "Suddenly we're on Abbott and Costello." The audience laughs.
"Alright, little ones, back in the little shed you go!" Gonzo spoke to lead the CMC disguise bulls into their shed.
"My word, you certainly have a way with animals." Rarity spoke in flattering the weirdo on his feat.
"Well, actually, I'm better with chickens than bulls!" Gonzo replied while getting a laugh from the audience.
"Say, are we safe? I mean, my mistress wanted these new red outfits to be for the next ball dance, but....to be here near a bull ranch seems...overkill?" Spike asked off a bit concern if they'll be okay here.
"Nah, I set it for the little ones to come play, they barely hurt you. The other bulls come out later to stretch their legs, so we're safe." Gonzo responded off to say about the manner here.
Meanwhile, backstage were Rizzo and Walter as they approach the switch to what's in the middle from right as in Playful Bulls to the left label Angry Bulls. As they both touch the switch, they saw who was here, and that started something.
"And what are you doing here?!" Rizzo snaps to Walter in annoyance. "This is my gig!"
"Your gig," Walter asked Rizzo in disbelief. "Kermit told me that you will let me do this!"
"Ha! Yeah right! I got paid 50 bucks for this and I ain't letting ya!" Rizzo snaps as he pulls the lever to prepare to let the bulls out.
"No way; I ain't going to let your jealous nature ruin everything, Rizzo!" Walter scowls as he grabs the lever, pulling it towards him.
"You aren't pushing me in the background again, you whistle blower!" Rizzo snaps as he pulls the lever back towards him. "Now scram!"
Suddenly without realizing it, Rizzo and Walter's tug-of-war game of letting the Playful Bulls go out and then close the doors again after they were done got out of hand. For soon they pulled the switch too far to the left were they accidentally set it to....the Angry Bulls label sign.
"Uh oh...." Both Muppets responded in what they did, this won't end very well.
Back on stage, the occupied sign it of who else was going, but it was listed on a different bull type.
"Oh, sounds like them bulls be coming again." Gonzo responded to say while not paying attention to the warning sign.
Then what came out weren't the disguise CMC in bull costumes, it was actually a bunch of real bulls.
"Um, aren't those a tad....bit big, for cute...little bulls?" Rarity yelped in seeing the new bulls coming in so suddenly.
"Hugh, you're right. These aren't Playful Bulls, they are Angry Bulls. And while playful bulls like to play, the angry ones are always angry. But what they hate most is the color red." Gonzo spoke in studying the real bulls, knowing what they are and what they hate most that one should not wear.
"Gulp....but....we're red!" Spike swallowed hard in looking at him and Rarity, they ARE in RED.
Suddenly, the bulls started to make wild noises in staring at the two creatures wearing red while they hid behind Gonzo in fear.
"Oh boy," Gonzo spoke this out before he and the rest were...stampeded, "YEEOOAAAAAHHHHH!" Gonzo was soon seen launched off across the rampaging bulls while Rarity and Spike also yelped and scream in being a part of the act. And all while the audience clapped and laugh at this funny scene while unaware that this wasn't part of the show.
Meanwhile, with Waldorf and Statler, they have this much to say.
"I don't believe my eyes in what they had showing here!" Statler spoke off from seeing this.
"What don't you believe?" Waldorf asked off in what his heckler wanted to say.
"They’ve gone bad to being worse off from their last movie!" Statler issued off on how bad this act was.
"Well the reviews were good, cause lots of folks like it bad." Waldorf remorsefully pointed out how folks enjoy seeing bad things.
"Well even if some get a kick out of watching horrible shows, you have to be bull-headed to like this." Statler was issuing this fact over how folks enjoy such bad acts as entertainment.
"Well if those were bulldozers, they weren't dozing off from that act. You might say, they got up and mow off the wrong side of the morning." Waldorf responded off to say this as another joke.
Then both the hecklers were laughing it up from their funny work.
"But seriously, was that even a part of the act to begin with?" Statler issued off to say about this action.
"I don't know, it was so bad, I forgot to pay attention to it." Waldorf responded in issuing this fact of what he did.
And again, both hecklers were laughing it up again; they get a kick out of this.
Backstage, Applejack and Apple Bloom quickly works on lassoing the angry bulls. The cowpony exclaims, "Yeehaw; Yeehaw; Git along, lil' doggies!"
"Come along!" Apple Bloom exclaims, helping her sister.
"Okay, what were you two thinking?" Kermit asked Walter and Rizzo with an annoyed sigh.
"Hey, you lied to me to get to work with Walt-jerk here!" Rizzo protests angrily to Kermit. "So it's naturally your fault."
"Well, this wouldn't happen if you hadn't messed with the switch." Walter said to Rizzo with a frown.
"No time to play the blame game." Kermit said in concern to the two. "Camilla told me that Gonzo got injured during this madness. He won't be able to do his act with Rainbow."
"What," Rainbow asked in shock as she came over. "But I wanted so much to do the Indoor Sonic Rainboom with someone!"
"Sorry, but I'll have to cancel it." Kermit said with a sigh, shaking his head.
Rainbow looks down in disappointment. By this time, Walter and Rizzo felt guilty. Their pointless bickering had injured Gonzo and put his act with Rainbow in jeopardy.
"Hey, Rizzo, listen. Rainbow needs someone to participate with her...so how about we end this silly argument and help her out?" Walter asked Rizzo in concern.
"I was feeling the same thing, Walter. Let's do it." Rizzo said.
"Hey, Rainbow; since we're the reason Gonzo got hurt, Rizzo and I will fill in for him." Walter said to Rainbow in confidence.
"Wait, both of us?" Rizzo asked Walter in surprise.
"We owe it to Gonzo, right?" Walter asked with a nod, "So how about it, Miss Dash?"
"Yeah, cool, okay!" Rainbow exclaims with a smile.
"I will go introduce you." Kermit said as he heads back to introduce the next act.
"Hope you guys can hang on because I am fast and dangerous!" Rainbow laughs as she throw ssome punches into the air in determination.
Back onstage, Kermit spoke, "Okay, folks, normally we were planning on Gonzo performing a daredevil stunt but due to his injuries in the previous act, filling in for the Whatever are Walter and Rizzo, teaming up with guest-star Rainbow Dash for an act. Here they are!"
The audience cheers as the curtains lifts up. Rainbow is wearing a pair of goggles while Walter and Rizzo are strapping themselves in, wearing daredevil clothes and protective gear.
"Hey, everyone; the stunt that we're going to do on Gonzo's behalf is the Indoor Sonic Rainboom!" Walter exclaims to the crowd in determination.
"Right, give us some silence because we're about to blow you all away!" Rainbow exclaims with a laugh.
Everyone hangs on as Walter and Rizzo held onto Rainbow who flies up into the air, flying around very fast.
"Wow, she's good." Flare Tiger said in amazement at Rainbow flying in the air from backstage.
"Is there any doubt?" Scootaloo asked with a chuckle. "Not impersonating Trixie of course."
"When do we get to the big part?" Phobos asked curiously.
"Okay, hang on, boys!" Rainbow laughs eagerly as she begins to fly upward into the air and right through a hole in the roof.
Walter laughs madly as Rizzo screams, "Now I remember why I hate this!"
Rainbow stops high above the theater. Rizzo shivers as the Pegasus pony smirks, saying, "Now REALLY hang on; ha ha ha!"
Rainbow speeds down very fast to the theater, going right to the Sonic Rainboom stage.
"HIT THE DECK!" Ben screams out, sensing what is about to happen.
"Oh boy," Nyx exclaimed as she and the CMC ducked and covered.
Everyone quickly ducks and covers as Rainbow almost hits the stage...and soon a Sonic Rainboom appears, flashing the usual effects, making a rainbow while a Sonic Boom is heard.
The audience yelps as they almost got blown away, even Statler and Waldorf does their best to avoid being blown out of their balcony box.
When all is clear, the stage is a wreck. The theater is still standing. Rainbow, Walter and Rizzo lands on the stage, the Pegasus pony smirks,
The audience looks dazed...then they cheer and applaud loudly. These people love it!
"Wow, what do you know? Am I awesome or what?" Rainbow laughs eagerly.
"Oh yeah, Rainbow Dash," Scootaloo cheers as her idol, Walter and Rizzo came into the backstage. "You were awesome!"
"Yeah, wasn't I?" Rainbow asked with a smile. "Now that's a Sonic Rainboom! Sorry about the damage."
"Awww, with some magic and some repairs, it will be good as new." Kermit remarks with a shrug.
"Hey, Rizzo, you were great!" Walter exclaims to Rizzo with a smile.
"Was I? Yeah," Rizzo exclaims with a laugh. "You were better, though."
"Nah, you were even better!" Walter remarks with a laugh.
"Ha ha ha; you two were both great!" Gonzo exclaims as he came over and hug his pals...who are shocked to see him not injured after all.
"Wait, hang on! Weren't you injured or was that my imagination?" Rizzo asked in confusion and disbelief. Even Walter is shocked by this.
"Oh, that. Well, Kermit and I decided to fake my injuries after the previous act just to get you two to work together." Gonzo explains to Walter and Rizzo with a smile.
"Yeah, sorry about the deceit but it's the only way you two can finally end your pointless arguing." Kermit admits, apologizing for the deceit. It's the only way for Walter and Rizzo to finally get along.
"Well, it worked, cause Walter and I are buddies now!" Rizzo said with a grin.
"Yeah, everything turns out well in the end." Fluttershy said with a giggle.
"Wanna bet?" Spike asked with a laugh as he points to his tail which got a piece of scenery stuck to it.
---------------------------
Flare Tiger chuckled as she walked to her laptop and check it out. The filly found out that Jade Adventure sent another e-mail to her. Flare Tiger smile and click on it. She's reading then gasped in fear when she heard shouts from a dressing room.
Miss Piggy yelled, "Who said Pork Chops!?!"
Flare Tiger gulped, "Aw, Horseapple..."
Miss Piggy walked into the room with anger until she saw Flare Tiger staring at Miss Piggy in fear; however, the pig saw Flare Tiger's laptop. Miss Piggy knew something that's Flare Tiger's trying to hide. The pig rushed up to Flare Tiger's laptop and pushes her out of the way. Miss Piggy read the e-mail from Jade Adventure in anger.
Miss Piggy yelled, "I will find you Jade Adventure; You, Flare Tiger!"
Flare Tiger meekly answer, "Yes, Miss?"
Miss Piggy smiled as she spoke, "Thank you."
Flare Tiger gulped, "Ya' welcome?"
Miss Piggy storm away as Flare Tiger knew it, she had to find Kermit. Flare Tiger gallop toward the other room.
---------
The audience applauds as the next act shows a country like area. Fluttershy appears, smiling as she begins to sing to the animals there.
Fluttershy: There's music in the treetops
And there's music in the vale
And all around the music fills the sky
There's music by the river
And there's music in the grass
And the music makes your heart soar in reply
Fluttershy begins to vocalize as she begins feeding the animals like a bear then birds. The Pegasus pony happily dances around with the animals following her. She then flies around and soars into the sky happily.
"Wow." Twilight said impressed as she and her friends watch Fluttershy perform. "She is really doing well."
"Yeah, she start this show up with a bang!" Spike remarks with a laugh.
"Did someone say BANG?!" Crazy Harry laughs madly as he appears with a familiar plunger on a detonator.
"NO!" Everyone screams in terror but it's too late. The Muppet pulls down the plunger and causes explosion to occur all over the stage, laughing like a maniac.
The explosions causes the animals and flee, making Fluttershy yelps as she flew off in fear. The audience laughs as they applaud despite the act not ending the way it should be.
"Honestly Harry!" Kermit groans a bit as Fluttershy flew back into the backstage and hide in some clothes piled up nearby. "Someone get Fluttershy out of there."
"It's okay, Fluttershy. You did good really." Rarity insists, trying to get the scared Fluttershy out of hiding.
"Sorry. Explosions startled me." Fluttershy whimpers as she peeks out of the clothes.
Soon after the sketch, Flare Tiger managed to find Kermit and the groups from Equestria. She rushed over to them and panted which gotten their pay attraction. Kermit was worried due to the fact that he saw something bothering Flare Tiger.
Kermit asked, "Flare Tiger, what's wrong?"
Flare Tiger sighed, "It's Miss Piggy! She's sense someone saying the P. C. words!"
Phobos asked, "You meant 'Pork Chops'? There is nothing wrong with it until that pork chop's crazy like nag."
Unknown yelled, "Hi-Yah!"
They saw Miss Piggy screaming in fury as she kicks Phobos out of the room with a scream in fear. Miss Piggy storms away with a huff puff in anger. They're shocked at what scene that they saw as the gang looked at Flare Tiger.
Flare Tiger groaned, "That's why! We need to keep Miss Piggy down as the Mystic Ponies are coming!"
Twilight yipped, "Who?!?"
Flare Tiger answers, "Tao, his family, Lightning Wisdom and Techtail."
Nyx asked, "Why do we need to keep Miss Piggy from them?"
Flare Tiger explained, "Because she'll most likely target Jade Adventure."
Apple Bloom gasp, "'Dis isn't good! Wait, why her?"
Soon, they realized it, Miss Piggy's sense was given off as they're putting piece to piece together. They're decided to think together, until Sweetie Belle gasped with an idea.
Sweetie Belle asked, "What's if, due to the Mystic Ponies' coming, Miss Piggy would be hold down as we could explain. The Mystic Ponies need to Pinkie Promise to not use the words, 'Pork' around here, there will nothing to worry about!"
They stared at her and agreed with mumbles.
"Until then, we need something in the next act." Kermit mumbles a bit. He glances at Michael and the hidden Lorcan. "You two, go out there and perform!"
"Forget that, I don't perform!" Michael snaps sternly but yelps as Ben zaps him in the flank.
"Get out there, we need some time to prepare, go on!" Ben snaps as Michael heads back stage. Lorcan glares. "What? Do I know you?"
"No." Lorcan mumbles as he goes out on stage with Michael, seeing the audience.
"Look, the Muppets are so ashamed of themselves, they're wearing a cloak and hood now!" Waldorf jokes as Statler laughs.
"Big audience tonight; we need some act."
"Right, I will start first." Michael remarks with a chuckle. "I am the number one of this group and..."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, Michael, Michael," Lorcan said sternly to Michael while frowning behind his foot. "You forgot one thing: I'm number one and you're number two."
"Oh come on, don't start this again!"
As piano music is heard, Lorcan begins to sing.
Lorcan: I’m number one
you’re number two
We’re stooges at large
but I’m at larger than you
I’m number one
you’re number two
I believe in equality
as long as you get less than me
I’m one
Michael: (bitterly) You’re one.
Lorcan: You’re number two.
Michael: I’m number two.
Lorcan: You may think that you’re smarter
but I’m smarter-er than you
I’m number one
you’re number two
You’re lucky to be
number two not number three
I can see by the look in your eye
you want to get a bigger piece of the pie
One day you’ll get your chance
but in the meantime, You got to dance pony dance
"Really? I hate dancing." Michael asks Lorcan with a frown.
"Do it! Dance Pony Dance," Lorcan snaps as he forces Michael to dance, making the Royal Guard uncomfortable as he does so. "HAHA"
Michael: I’m number two
He’s number one
I can’t believe I’m working for
a hidden figure
I’m number two
He’s number one
Lorcan: I’M NUMBER ONE!!!
Michael: You know life gone down with the wagon
when your pal is a hidden Drag...come on!
I can see it’s just a matter of time
before he’s gone and I’m at the front of the line
It won’t be long until I get my chance
But in the meantime, I’ve got to dance pony dance.
"Dance pony dance," Lorcan taunts as he begins to sing, making the audience laughs. "Now watch me."
Lorcan dances a bit, forcing Michael to do his best to do better, but it appears that the hidden Dragon is doing better. Once Lorcan's done, the two sing and dance together.
Lorcan & Michael: I’m number one
(He’s number one)
You’re number two
(I’m number two!)
I’ll bet you kid there you go
now step aside this ain’t your show
I’m one
(You’re one)
I’m number one
(Yes, we know)
I’m…
(He’s…)
Number one!
"That’s how it’s done." Lorcan exclaims as he finish the dancing number. Michael roll his eyes especially when the audience applauds for them both. He hates being number two to this Dragon.
"Doesn't that song sound familiar to you?" Waldorf ask Statler curiously.
"Who knows? All of these songs sound the same." Statler comments to Waldorf with a shrug.
"How so?"
"They're all bad!'
The audience laughs as the hecklers heckle as usual.
