Three weeks later, Sassaflash and her friends were walking towards the grand Canterlot Castle. They were invited to the Grand Galloping Gala! Cloudchaser stretched her now-healed wings.
"How are you wings feeling?" Flitter asked.
"Stop asking that!" Cloudchaser replied. "They are healed. Stop being such a worrywart."
Sassaflash and her friends entered the Canterlot Castle. Vinyl Scratch was putting on great music in the garden while Octavia and her band played nice, soothing classical music inside the castle. Suddenly, Princess Celestia walked up to Sassaflash.
"Sassaflash," she began, "I'm very impressed with how much electricity you've collected just for the Grand Galloping Gala."
"Thanks, Your Highness," replied Sassaflash.
"I now have some other ponies I need to talk to," Princess Celestia told Sassaflash. "See you later."
Princess Celestia gracefully walked away. Sassaflash and her friends walked to the snack table.
"Whaaaaat?" a disappointed Cloud Kicker spoke. "No nachos?"
"This is an elegant gala, Cloud Kicker," Dizzy Twister told Cloud Kicker, "not a birthday bash."
"I guess that means no hay soda either," Cloud Kicker sadly spoke.
"There's punch," Medley told Cloud Kicker.
Cloud Kicker walked up to the punch table and filled a glass with punch. She gulped it down, drop by drop. She burped, setting the glass back on the table.
"I say!" Fleur Dis Lee spoke.
After Cloud Kicker filled up on some more punch, Sassaflash and her friends, including that of Cloud Kicker, walked throughout the majestic Canterlot Castle. Suddenly, they saw somepony familiar: Lightning Dust. She walked slowly towards Sassaflash to talk to her.
"Sassaflash," Lightning Dust began, "I am so sorry. I don't know why I think I'm cooler than everypony else. I guess I just don't listen to my heart enough."
"You'll be fine," reassured Sassaflash. "Just don't mess up any at the Junior Speedsters camp, 'kay?"
"I'll make sure that everypony accepts me there," Lightning Dust replies. "Guess I'll be seeing you guys later."
Lightning Dust walked away without another word. Sassaflash turned to her friends to speak to them.
"I hope Lightning does fine in the Junior Speedsters without causing any trouble like she did just a few days ago."
"Don't worry Sassaflash," Medley tells her, "I think she'll be just fine."
"I want to check out Vinyl Scratch in the Canterlot Gardens now!" Cloudchaser suggested.
"Isn't her stage name DJ Pon-3?" asked a confused Flitter.
"Whatever," Cloudchaser replied.
Sassaflash and her friends head out together into the Canterlot Gardens, where Vinyl Scratch was putting on a song. Everypony was cheering for the latter DJ. Suddenly, Lightning Dust came outside too.
"I thought I could just have a real bash here too."
Sassaflash and her friends, along with Lightning Dust, began to dance with everypony else to Vinyl Scratch's song as the night truly seemed to last forever.
