	"HELLO AND WELCOME! THIS IS YOUR D.J. E.K. HERE PREFORMING FOR YOU AT THE SUMMER SUN CELEBRATION! MAN!.. I GOTTA TAKE DOWN THE ELEMENTS OF HARMONY?!? I BETTER WORK FAST, THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!

"THESE MARES ARE IN MY WAY!"
"THEY AREN'T HERE TO PLAY!"
"I WOULD DO AS THEY SAY,"
"BUT CHRYSALIS' GOTTA PAY!"
"FRONT AND CENTER IS MY MAIN MARE BOUNCY BUBBLEGUM!"
"IF I CAN'T TAKE DOWN LAUGHTER THAN THE FUTURE'S GONNA BE GLUM!"

"THIS ADHD MARE MAY SEEM A LITTLE DENSE!"
"BUT I GOTTA WATCH OUT FOR HER PROPHETIC SENSE!"
"FIGHTING SOMEONE WHO KNOWS THE FUTURE!"
"SHE HAS A MEAN SENSE OF OF HUMOR!"
"TAKEN UNAWARE BY A PINKIE PIE SURPRISE,"
"I GRIT MY TEETH, DETERMINED TO FIGHT THE LIES!"
"PINKIE CAN BRING THE PARTY!"
"THINKING SHE'S REALLY HARDY!"
"PINK HAPPY THINKS SHE CAN TAKE MY WRAITH!"
"I'M THE ONE WITH THE LAST LAUGH!"

Hey Pinkie, I got you a present.
"Ohhhhh! Really? What is it, What is it!?!"
"Close your eyes.

My pink friend shuts her eyes and squirms with excitement. I slam my hoof into her as hard as I can, before she recovers, I headbutt her, making sure to use my horn. Reeling, Pinkie Pie falls.

"One down."

"TRYING TO CATCH MY BREATH, I DON'T HAVE TIME TO REST!"
COMING AFTER ME IS THE ONE WHO CLAIMS SHE'S THE BEST!
"THIS MARE HAS A BIG BARK, AND A EVEN BIGGER BITE!"
"WHEN SHE TAKES FLIGHT, GET READY FOR A FIGHT!"
"COMING FROM THE SIDE, NEXT IS SPEEDY CYAN!"
"CAN'T TAKE TOO LONG, IT'S BEEN 5 MINUTES SINCE I BEGAN!"

"WE'VE ONLY JUST STARTED AND THE STAKES ARE PRETTY HIGH!"
"PRISMATIC PRIDEFUL HAS TAKEN ME UP TO THE SKY."
"ONE SONIC RAINBOOM LATER AND I'M GONNA DIE!"
"BETTER THINK UP OF SOMETHING ON THE FLY!"
"LOYALTY MUST THINK SHE'S PRETTY SLY!"
"PLANNING ON TURNING ME INTO A KOOLAID PIE!"
"I'M NOT HONESTY, BUT I CANNOT LIE!"
"ALL THIS DRAMA IS MAKING ME SIGH!"
"WITH MORTAL DANGER DRAWING NIGH!"
"SWIFT BLUES IS GETTING HUNG OUT TO DRY!"

The vain nuisance flipped down, gaining the speed needed to do her signature move. Disgusting hypocrite represents an element of harmony but she's all too eager to take my life. The cocky fool is right about one thing, one of us isn't going to be breathing in the next few seconds.

"Is there any way I could convince you not to do this?"
"Aww, what's wrong? Scared now that I'm going to kick your butt?!?" She taunted.
"Very well."

I watched as the sound barrier became visible, the wretched heat torturing my skin. Gritting, I waited until the very last second before she pulled off her Sonic Rainboom. Grabbing her body, I twisted us around so she was the one taking the blow.

"OH-"

She never got to finish her sentence as the Sonic Rainboom blew her to bits...or so I assumed. Oh well, she'll soften my fall. Using her as a body bag, I roughly landed back into the castle and turned to see-

"DODGING A DIAMOND WITH MY DEXTERITY!"
"SO MANY JEWELS COMING WITH CELERITY!"
"THIS MARE CAN'T STAND MY VULGARITY!"
"I DON'T CARE MUCH FOR OUR DISPARITY!"
"I CAN SEE THE HILARITY!"
"OF HOW SHE CAN'T SEE THE SEVERITY!"

"WEAVE BY WEAVE, DODGING THEM TOGETHER!"
"RARITY'S JEWEL, CUTTING OUT MY SOFT FLESH SNIP BY SNIP!"
"MAKING SURE THE DIAMOND'S CUT DEEPLY!"
"IT'S THE PERFECT COLOR HOW IT DRIPS!"
"ALWAYS GOTTA KEEP IN MIND I'M CRAZY!"
"MAKING SURE MY VISION ISN'T HAZY!"
"I'M DODGING~!"
"RARITY'S JEWELS~!"
"SECOND BY SECOND, I'M IN RANGE!"
"THEY'RE CUTTING ME TOGETHER, TAKE GREAT PAINS!"
"GOT TO OVERCOME INTIMIDATION!"
"REMEMBER, IT'S ALL IN THE PRESENTATION-"

The uptown mare started to back away as I, the downtown stallion, worked my way towards her. Ironic, considering our origins. Slowly, I kept inching towards her, and slowly, she kept inching away. Quickly, I sprinted towards her and ignored the five diamonds now cutting deeply into my chest. I tackled her and knocked her over. With her head spinning, she looked up and saw she was laying in a doorway. Quickly, efficiently, and diligently, I slammed the door into her head repeatedly, her head jamming the doorway. I stop and stared down at the bloody mess.

"You look just absolutely fabulous darling. The bloody red complements you so well."

"EVEN AS I GO BERSERK!"
"I CAN RESPECT THOSE WHO DO HONEST WORK!"
"WITH TRADITIONS OF OLD,"
"AND A MANE MADE OF GOLD!"
"EYES OF EMERALD GREEN!"
"COMING AT ME IS THE APPLE QUEEN!"

"EVEN IF SHE JUS' GROWS FRUIT!"
"FIGHTING HER AIN'T A HOOT!"
"THOSE BE SOME HARD HITTING HOOVES!"
"AH WANT NOTHIN TA DO WIT'A THEM MOVES!"
"STARTIN TA FEEL APPALL!"
"FIGHTIN TH' BIG APPLE!"
"THEY UP AND TRICKED TH' AVATAR O' HONESTY!"
"SOON AH'LL BRING CANTERLOT AMNESTY!"
"AH'M GETTIN TIRED O' GOIN BLOW TA BLOW!"
"PUTTIN AN END TA THIS HERE RODEO!"

Dodging her lasso, I grabbed the rope before she could pull it back. Pulling her close to me, I quickly flipped her over and started to hog tie her, ignoring her biting into my shoulder.

"Why yah no good varmint! When ah get mah hooves on yah yer gunna be-wait now what are yah-"

*CRASH!*

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhh..."

I peeked out the window I just threw Applejack through.

"...We are a lot higher up than I previously thought."

"YO SOMEBODY RING UP ASH!"
"I JUST FOUND A RAPIDASH!"
"FOUR DOWN, TWO STAND TALL!"
"I GOTTA CATCH THEM ALL!"
" HEY PURPLE SMART I-OH BUCK."
"OH BUCK OH BUCK OH BUCK OH BUCK-"

"HEY HEY HEY! THE FIGHT JUST- WOAH BUCK-  STARTED AND I ALMOST-"
"HOLD ON NOW, IF I DIDN'T JUST TELEPORT, I WOULD HAVE BEEN TOAST!"
"OUR ECCENTRIC ELECTRIFYING D.J. IS IN FOR IT NOW!"
"THIS MAGICAL MULBERRY MARE IS MAKING ME GO WOW!"
"I ALWAYS KNEW I'D GO OUT WITH A BANG!"
"I PROBABLY SHOULDN'T HAVE KILLED HER GANG!"
"AS SAD AS THIS IS, I CAN'T REALLY CRY!"
"TODAY SEEMS LIKE A GOOD DAY TO DIE!"
"HEY BIG BANANA, IF YOU CAN HEAR ME UP THERE!"
"YOUR FAVORITE D.J. COULD USE SOME HELP HERE!"

"Out of energy and magic, I resigned myself as Twilight Sparkle slowly trotted up to me, charging up her blast. Right as she was about to shoot me, she slipped on some rubble and misfired. Her blast ricochet off the wall behind me and hit the ceiling above her. Quietly, I watched as the princess of magic was knocked out by debris.

...

"HAHA! SUCK IT NERD!!!"

"FIVE MARES DOWN, ONE CHICKEN TO GO!"
"SHAKING ALL OVER SHE'S BACKING UP SLOW!"
"THIS FILLY'S SCARED STIFF, LOOKS LIKE I'M DONE!
"TIME TO FIND CHRYSALIS AND-Oh. Oh crap..."

Whimpering in fear, the butterscotch mare slightly back up. She was pushing up against one of the incredibly heavy pillars holding up this room. The pillar was tilted. If it was pushed any further, it would break off the part of the roof holding an incredibly sharp looking chandelier over her.

"Stop-"

From simply hearing my voice, the poor fool pushed herself harder against the pillar, the ceiling creaked and the chandelier became crooked. With a resigned sigh, I softly spoke up.

"Restart, my heart, see how I'm beating?"
"I can care too, I care for you..."
"It sprung, my lungs, see how I'm breathing?"
"I can fear too, I fear for you..."
"Rewind, my mind, see how I'm thinking?"
"I can think too, I think of you..."
"Hustle, muscle, see how I'm flexing?"
"I can fight too, I fight for you..."
"My soul, in seared, in song sacredly so. "
"Can't you hear me? Please don't fear me..."

A few steps away from the mare, she broke out of her trance and jerked herself back. The chandelier broke off and headed straight for us. Quickly, I rushed over and pushed her out of the way. Incredible pain laced through my body as large, crystal spikes impaled my flesh. Although I can't really feel bad or cry. Today really is the perfect day to die.
