It's been a week since the destruction of Stalliongrad. Some ponies who had been oppressed their whole live by this corrupted city would be happy about it if it wasn't for the fear they felt at the possibility that the Reapers attack their neightborhood next.
Many ponies lock themself in their home afraid that the next time they step out they will be greet by a town in flammes.
Many ponies tried to forget the tragedy by turning to fiction. Some watch movies other read books, and some ponies took opportunity to host a tournament of a popular human video game called Super Smash Bros. Wii U
But we're getting ahead of ourself let start from the begining. We all remember Yuri formely called Button Mash, right? Well life as a mare has been good on her thus far she had a few issues with her dad but that a story for another time.
Yuri sighed in annoyance. "Doctor Stable you checked me three times arleady, let me go home!"
"Sorry Mrs. Yuri Belle but I am forced by the law to check everyone who cast a transformation spell on themself in case it's a Soul Reaper in disguise."
"I told you arleady it's a gender swapping spell that was cast on me years ago! And beside why would the Reapers waste their time impersonating a random transsexual mare?"
"I Don't know but we're never too sure. Now keep quiet while I check the spell one more time." Yuri rolled her eyes, she was grateful for the unicorn species for making her look how she should have since birth but they could be so annoying at time.
After a few minutes of checking Yuri with a scanning spell Doctor Stable let the magic in his horn die down and smiled. "Well it look like there no problem the only spell I found was for the sex change you can go home now."
"Finally." She muttered under her breath.
She was about to get out of the hospital, but that when a mare and a stallion put themself in front of her.
"Miss Wave Dash I'm so happy you could come!" The mare said excitedly but her eyes were red and puffy showing she was crying not long ago.
"...What?" Yuri asked in confusion.
"Our daughter is waiting for you come on!" The stallion said and then began to trot in direction of his daughter's room.
"Wait I'm not-" But before she could protest further the mare began to drag her away. "Wah! Wait a second!"
But they paid her no mind and she was pushed inside the room. Inside the room lay a tired looking filly the rhythmic sound of a heart monitor filled the room.
When they entered the room she perk up only to be disappointed when she saw the pony in front of her. "You're not Wave Dash I would be surprise if she actually came."
"You're not miss Wave Dash?!" Both the parents exclaimed in shock.
"That what I've been trying to tell you!" Yuri shouted both the mare and the stallion looked away embarassed.
"We're sorry we saw your cutie mark that looked like a video game button and we through you were her." The mother said.
The eyes of the filly brightened a little. "Say miss..."
"Yuri." The brown mare answered.
The filly looked at her with a raise of an eyebrow. "Like those weird neightphon manga with two mares kissing each other?"
Yuri blushed at that. "I was more thinking of the flowers when I chose the name."
"Chose? Didn't your parents name you?" Yuri winced at the reminder that she wasn't born like she is.
"...It's a long story I'm sure it would bore you."
"...Well okay if you don't want to tell I won't pry." She was about to tell something else but was interupt by a series of cough. Yuri was taken aback when she saw magic energy coming out of the filly's mouth.
The two parents looked sad at the situation the filly was in but Yuri didn't understand it yet. After a few more seconds the filly composed herself. "I was about to say maybe you could do it!"
Yuri stared blankly at her. "Do what?"
The father was the one to respond. "You see before her situation worsen Ruby was suppose to participate against her friend in a video game tournament what was it called. Super Bash Sisters?"
"It's Super Smash Bros For Wii U. My friend didn't stop saying that fillies aren't as good as colts at video game despite me beating him often. So we decided to settle it in a tournament. But when my situation got worse I wanted to called for Wave Dash who is a profesional to teach him a lesson. Unfortunately she don't want to participate in anything but Melee."
"Isn't it a little excessive to call a pro to compete against a little colt?" Yuri asked incredulously.
"It would be if it wasn't for the fact that it is a team tournament and his older brother who will be in his team didn't participate in several tournaments. And my friend is not as good as his brother but despite him being young he's no pushover."
Yuri rubbed her neck. "Well I never really participate in a tournament and I"m no professional at Super Smash Bros..." Ruby looked downcast at that.
"But I adapt pretty quick and half of the high score on the arcade games of Ponyville are mine so I guess I can try."
The filly pounce on the older mare and hug her. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! If you win you can keep the prize money I don't care I just want to prove him wrong."
Yuri eyes widden a little. "Wait there a prize money?"
"Oh yeah there is, you won't get it just for beating my friend through there a lot of ponies who came to participate but if you're team is in the best three places you will win some bits."
"Who will be my teammate?"
"She's called Nova I never met her but I played with her online she's pretty good not a good as me but she will help you a lot."
"...Okay I guess I will just have to practice when will this tournament be host?"
"In three days." Thee days?! Yuri thought, that not a lot of time to practice beter make it quick.

Before Yuri could quit the hospital she was interupted by Ruby parents once again. "Miss Yuri I'm happy you accepted to help our daughter. But the fact that you changed your name bother me did you have a criminal past?"
Yuri was a little taken aback by the question, Well at least he's direct I will give him that. she throught to herself
"I prefer not to talk about it."
Yuri was about to trot away but the stallion put himself in front of me once again. "I just want to be sure my daughter is not being friend with the wrong pony."
Yuri began to feel annoyed. "Look I will just participate in that tournament make the wish of a sick little filly come true and I will not bother any of you again."
"Ruby will want to know you more after this I know it and if you're dangeous in any ways I will-"
"I'm a transsexual! Now happy? I changed of gender when I was seventeen that why I change of name." Yuri profited of the shock of the parents to sneak away of the hospital. But she knew she would have to confront them again a time or another.
She just hope it wouldn't go as bad as the last time she reveal that she was transgender.
