After a while, the House of Pony managed to get itself up on its feet once more while more folks and ponies begin to attend the shows. Twilight and her friends didn't do any big shows still, the gang decided to wait until the time is right.

Soon the Alicorn and the others, after a 'slip-up' by the Dark Warrior Trio' found out that Flash fakes his injuries. Luckily they forgave him since the Pegasus did help a friend in need after all. Flash promises that someday that he will be on stage...the other day just isn't that day, that's all. Rarity afterwards asked to perform a new act on a stage...though they just stared blankly at her. That white unicorn.

There are other ponies, meanwhile, who loved working on the job at the club. One of them is Shining Armor, Twilight's big brother. His job is to park cars then gives them back to the guests when they leave. Not much but the unicorn loves the job as it gets him away from much of the insanity that happens inside the House of Pony. Shining think that he would never get another job other than his...

It was another day at the House of Pony as Spike, smiling, announce, "And now, here she is, the Alicorn Princess of Magic herself...Twilight Sparkle!"

We see the usual teleportation scene as Twilight appears in her Princess outfit, crown and all. The audience applauds for her as the mare exclaims, "Ta-da! Hey, everypony! Welcome to the House of Pony! Ponies seem to think that it isn't easy, being the host of this club and running the place. But with grand entrances like this, they hel..."

Without warning, a couple of Bushwoolies rush by, stampeding on Twilight...though one came back and throw water from a bucket, splashing her in the face before rushing off. The mare groans as the audience laughs, "Yeah, I got to make a note to give those guys the boot."

During this time, Pinkie hums happily as she serves a meal to Gen 1 Wind Whistler, saying, "All rightie, Wind Whistler, here you go! One Big Daisy Sandwich," The pink Earth pony put the plate down, she then notice that one of the olives suddenly roll off the place and right onto the floor. As it rolls off, Pinkie said sheepishly, "Oopish. Windy, don't move. Let me get that olive for ya!"

Pinkie dives down at what appears to be an object that is round. The mare calls it, "Got it!" Of course, the pony look surprised as she saw what she herself is really holding. "Hang on. You're an eyeball."

"Yeah, we know!" Hydia, who is sitting at a nearby table with her daughters, scowls in annoyance. "And I'd like that back!"

Pinkie yelps sheepishly as she gave the eyeball back to Hydia. Don't ask how or why. The witch got rid of the real olive as it kept on rolling a bit.

"Oooh, there's the olive!" Pinkie giggles as she follows the olive right underneath Surprise's table.

Surprise was enjoying a drink of tea when the teapot on the table opens up, revealing both the olive and Pinkie who came out of it. The Pegasus pony looks surprised (ironically) as she remarks, "Wow; Weird tea that I've gotten."

The olive heads to the kitchen. Pinkie caught it happily while calling out, "Gotcha, slippery little devil! I love this..." Of course, the olive slips out of her hooves, much to the mare's surprise. Pinkie kept on the attempt to catch it until the olive itself disappears from sight. "Weird. Where is it now?"

Pinkie spots the olive right on her mane making her smile. She was able to reach for it when Fluttershy's animal waiter friends open the doors, hitting the pink pony and sending her right to the entrance.

Rainbow was watching some Stonebacks coming in when she saw Pinkie rushing towards her. The Pegasus pony duck in time to dodge the pink pony who flew past her.

Shining was sitting outside as he is about to take a small break but looks startled as the doors flew open. Pinkie fell outside with the olive rolling off from her nose, landing right on the ground.

"Awww, I'm all right as usual! Want an olive?" Pinkie asks happily as she picks up the olive and offers it to Shining. The stallion almost threw up as the food itself is now ruined from the situation that it has gone through.

"Dang, Pinkie couldn't be more random than usual!" A familiar voice spoke up. Pinkie and Shining saw Apple Bloom, the one who spot, walking into the club with Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo.

"You betcha; Pinkie's okay but not cool like Rainbow Dash!" Scootaloo commented. Sweetie giggles as the three fillies enter the building.

As Shining groans a bit, Pinkie smiles and put the olive onto her mane. She said happily, "Awww, no worries, Shining; The Cutie Mark Crusaders aren't being mean! I like being called random!"

"I don't know, Scootaloo may have a point in her own way." Shining said to Pinkie in concern. "Rainbow Dash technically she runs the club whenever my sister can't do it. Twiley, she's the host. You? You just wait tables and all."

"Pinkie, being the head waiter in the House of Pony must be the easiest job in Equestria for you, next to your other job at Sugarcube Corner! For one, I even get shorter wages than you, Pinkie!""

"I don't mean size, Lorcan!" Shining remarked to Lorcan in annoyance. Turning back to Pinkie, he continues, "Second, you get to order the Bushwoolies, Fluttershy and her animals around as well as read the silly menus."

"Whatcha mean 'silly menus'?" Pinkie asks Shining puzzled as Fluttershy came out to see if her pink pony friend is all right.

"You know, there's 'Appleloosa Apples', 'Cloudsdale with French Fries', and 'Luna Sandwich with Celestia Sauce'. Those are the only examples but you get the idea."

"Then you take the food to the tables." Shining said, continuing showing examples of what Pinkie does.

"...and you watch the guests to eat. Same with what Fluttershy does. Why, anypony could do that...even I could if I wanted to!"

"Oh, is that so?" Pinkie ask Shining with an amusing giggle. Suddenly without warning, she grabs his hoof and shakes it. "Well, congratulations, Shiny, and welcome to the job! You're now a waiter for one night!"

"Wait, what?" Shining ask in shock and alarm. Pinkie went and made him a waiter?!

Pinkie giggles as she pushes Shining right into the club to get started on his job (making note to find somepony to be in charge of the cars while he's gone). A concerned Fluttershy ask, "Pinkie Pie, are you sure that's good idea to hire Shining Armor as head waiter? I mean he's not only Twilight's big brother, but Captain of Royal Guard. He doesn't even know how tough being a waiter is."

Pinkie grins widely as she answers, "Why, of course. Since he said it's easy for him, we'll watch what he's good at."

"Trust me, Fluttershy. It'll be fine. Shining Armor will learn it the hard way."

Now on stage, Twilight smiles while saying, "All right, ponies! For your appetizers for this evening, we're going to be serving up one Pinkie Pie cartoon! Enjoy!"

JUSSONIC PRESENTS...

A PINKIE PIE CARTOON

How to Be A Waitress

"Yes, the humble waitress. It is the most dignified of service professionals."

Pinkie, wearing a waitress's outfit, smiling as she takes a breath. Time for her to do her job as waitress, mostly as a side job to pay the bills whenever the pink pony isn't working at Sugarcube Corner.

"Hey, waitress!" A pony calls out as he gives a dish to Pinkie. "Order at Table 2!"

Pinkie yelps, mostly because ponies are giving her a lot of dishes to deliver. That is too much even for the mare to take! Pinkie ends up falling down but manages to deliver the plates to the tables, then heads back to the kitchen to get more food to deliver as well as delivering dirty dishes to the kitchen to clean them up.

Pinkie gave a happy smile, delivering plates to table and pouring ice water into the glasses, also giving them to the customers. Sound fun so far.

"Yes, sir. Note the graceful movements as this happiness ballet is performed before us. Why, it takes of preparations as well as training to sharpen a waitress's grasp to help each customer, as well as keeping orders separated, and delivering the delightful dishes in a timely matter."

Pinkie begins entering and going out the kitchen various ways to deliver dishes, set up stuff up...but even it became fast to the point that she accidentally collided with herself, knocking the Earth Pony down to the floor.

"Uh, Mr. Narrator? Sorry to interrupt you but being a waitress is something I do all the time at Sugarcube Corner." Pinkie said, groaning as she got up. "The job is fun, yeah, but I don't think a "How to" sketch would be necessary! I ain't that random. Isn't there an easier way to make a living?"

A chef frowns as she motions Pinkie to clean up the mess she made, which the meek pony begins to do so.

"Hmm, well, Pinkie, I gotta agree with you there. Even this job can be too much, even for you. In this case, that's why some waitress become movie stars."

"Oooh, movie star?" Pinkie giggles, imagining herself in Hoofywood. Now that's more like it! "That's a perfect job than being a boring waitress in place that ISN'T Sugarcube Corner. Can we do a "How to" sketch on that, huh huh?"

"Ha ha ha ha. All right. 'How to Be a Movie Star'. We shall start off with...PREPARATION!"

We see Pinkie in front of a blue background in a movie director outfit, black hat and all. This oughta be fun!

"An actor or actress's skills depends on her ability to quickly and believably display a wide range of emotions."

"Like anger, happy, sad..."

Pinkie responded to each emotion by growling angrily, gave out a silly expression, then she took out a box of tissues and blow her nose on them.

Pinkie gave a confused look at her tissue as if wondering how it got there. The Earth pony then ate the tissue...then spit it out in disgust.

The narrator went through the emotions so fast, Pinkie is going fast too just to respond to each one when it comes to the right emotion. Pinkie then spins around, getting dizzy.

Pinkie then fell unconscious, groaning. That is a lot of emotions to go through!

Pinkie is now in a dressing room, holding out a bottle of throat spray for this next part.

"Just like an artist who uses a palette of colors to make a masterpiece, the actor must relies on his voice to deliver dialogue rightly."

Pinkie did not hesitate as she sprays the voice spray in her mouth. The mare smiling as she coughs. Time to do this and the pony knows what line to say for this.

"How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood, master," Pinkie spoke in the voice of Peter Mule. The pony shakes her head. Time to do it again. This time, Pinkie spoke as John Coltyne. ""How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood, pilgrim?"

Pinkie shakes her head and said the phrase, this time on Neighponese. The mare smiles while nodding. Looks like she is ready for sure!

"Having mastered the right skills that are necessary, time to star in a movie!"

Pinkie yelps as a lot of ponies gave her a lot of things, like scripts and clothes. Once again, it's too much that cause our hero to collapse onto the floor.

"Ah, but what kind of movie, you ask? Well, we shall move on to THE FILM GENRE!"

The first genre we go to is a black and white short, which is like the old cartoon shorts of the 1920s/1930s.

In the black and white segment, which is like watching "Steamboat Willie", we see a black and white Pinkie dancing while whistling. She drove a steamboat just like Mickey Mouse while pulling the horn to toot them. And just like the short, the horns did their tooting, while kicking the little horn, making it toot as well.

Of course, without warning, the steamboat that Pinkie is driving hits the one that Mario Mario himself is driving and causing it to sink. The plumber turns, yelling at the sinking boat that Pinkie is in. Of course, no one knew what the plumber is saying. That is until card appears which said, "Mama Mia! Not-a-again! I'm-a working on this-a side of the river! Get-a your own movie, pony!"

We now see Pinkie in a Western setting, wearing cowpony clothes. The pink pony giggles as she swing around a few lassos. No wonder Applejack likes doing this!

Unfortunately, the lassos which Pinkie is swinging begins to get her into the air, causing the pony to crash into the ceiling. The pink pony yelps as she begins getting pulled up and down like a yo-yo. How embarrassing!

We now go to another setting which is a castle one. Brian, dressed in the role as the prince, came out while chuckling.

"Ah, yes. It's the Love Story genre. Now that's a choice that is sure to win the hearts of many ponies!"

Brian sniffs a rose as she drops right towards Pinkie who caught and sniffs it right back. The pink pony begins to climb up the ladder...which ended up breaking, causing her to fall down. The pink pony frowns as she rushes off, returning with a one-sided ladder. Pinkie uses to climb up to Brian.

Of course, once Pinkie got to the top, the ladder runs ended up breaking off, so the actress ended up walking on stilts before tripping, sending her to the ground once more. Pinkie groans then runs off, returning with a mechanical lifter. This has to work!

Pinkie got on as the lifter went up, allowing her to take Brian. Except for one problem: the machine is still going up, crashing right into the ceiling.

"Wow, looks like the romance scenes isn't your thing, Pinks." Brian said to Pinkie who gave him a sheepish grin.

"Next up is the Monster Chillers!"

Brian, dressed normally, looks around in fright. He took out a flashlight, holding to give him some sort of comfort.

"The Monster Chillers is one goosy-loosey-pimply way to scare up some stardom."

Brian nervously shines a flashlight on a bat which dissolves into smoke. Soon, standing there was Pinkie, dressed as a vampire. She, being scary, booms out, "Blah, blah, blah some more!"

The result? Brian screams as he hits her with the flashlight. The stallion screams as he kept running from Pinkie who is dressed as a lot of movie monsters...but kept clobbering her each time. Pinkie, in her mummy costume, frowns as she got clobbered once more. What is up with Brian today?

Having enough, Pinkie came back in her normal wait, saying, "Brian, it's me, Pinkie Pie!" Brian screams as he hits her with the flashlight like mad. This causes Pinkie to run off with her boyfriend in hot pursuit. "Owie! Hey, stop, Brian! I ain't in a monster disguise! Ouch!"

"Sorry, but I'm still terrified when I saw "Cupcakes"!" Brian exclaims as he kept on hitting Pinkie. "Come back so I won't be turned into a cupcake!"

Pinkie is putting on an astronaut helmet before putting a rocket on. At least this is much safer than the previous genre.

Pinkie hears the rocket starring and prepares herself. However, the pink pony ends up getting blasted all over the place, knocking pieces off everything before getting out of the soundstage, landing on the floor.

Of course, as Pinkie recovers, she yelps as Brian runs at him with the flashlight, "EEEK! NARRATOR, HELP!"

"No problem, Pinkie. In the end, all that hard work pays off. This is evening that every movie stars is dreaming of. The big night...AWARDS NIGHT that is."

A few months later, cameras rolls at the red carpet, flashing as Pinkie, in a dress, waves towards a huge crowd while signing autographs wherever she is. This is it, the big time!

"Yes, the cream of Hoofywood's ponies comes out to recognize the biggest movie stars in their most unforgettable roles!"

The award ceremony is already in progress. Pinkie watches as the host, Brian, reads off the nominees for Best Actress in a Movie role, which are Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Diamond Tiara, and Pinkie herself.

"And the winner is...Pinkie Pie!" Brian exclaims. The audience applauds making Pinkie give out a wide grin. She won!

"Yay!" Pinkie exclaims as she rush onto the stage to get her award. Turning to the audience, the mare spoke, "I like to thank Equestria and every pony for this award. Hay, I even made this cute little speech!" The mare takes out what appears to be a small speech, but when she folded it, it's pretty long to be honest.

"All right, off the stage, you're done!" A pony snaps as he pushes Pinkie off the stage. No time for speeches!

Pinkie is now entering a movie theater as folks look up. Time to see what first movie that the Earth Pony starred in that made her a big hit in Hoofywood.

"And now, all eyes turn to the silver screen in anticipation. Here it is, the big scene, the one that started it all, the one that made a movie star."

The folks quiet down as the movie begins. Pinkie smiles as she hears a seductive voice, "Excuse me, but..."

Suddenly the voice turns loud as the camera back up. Pinkie was acting all right...but she is back in the restaurant scene, playing a waitress in that movie!

"Okie dokie lokie, sir!" Pinkie exclaims, putting some coffee into the pot. "Want some cream with that?"

And thus, Pinkie's circle begins a new in the very restaurant that she was a waitress in. Yeah, it's weird that being a waitress in real life would pay off to act like one in a movie, but it helps.

"Yes, isn't it nice to get away from that silly boring job? Take a bow, Miss Pie! You are indeed a movie star!"

THE END

A JUSSONIC PRODUCTION

Once the cartoon is over, everyone applauds, it is a big story. In the backstage area, another story is about to begin as Pinkie calls everyone up for a quick meeting. And boy, Shining looks embarrassed about it.

"Hey, ponies, quiet down! I got an announcement to make!" Pinkie giggles towards Twilight, Ben, Rainbow, Rarity, Nyx, Spike, Fluttershy and Brian who looks up in interest.

"Yep! After all, this is your first day on the job, following in your sister's footsteps!" Pinkie exclaims proudly to Shining.

"Err, Pinkie? You aren't my sister. Twilight is. And she hosts the show, not being a waiter."

"Uh, you may want to get on with it, if it's okay." Fluttershy said quietly to Pinkie.

"Okie dokie lokie! Shining, better wear your own horseshoes, because mine got my hooves in them!" Pinkie giggles as she claps her upper hooves. Turning to the others, "Fluttershy also knew this but the rest of you should know. For the day only, Shining will be the head waiter right here at the House of Pony, so I want you all to make him feel more welcome Super Duper than usual!"

"Wow, that's great, big brother!" Twilight exclaims happily to Shining. "You get to work inside the place with me from now on! Like siblings working together!"

"Yeah, now everyone in my side of the family is working inside!" Nyx exclaims happily.

"Oh yeah, this is going to be awesome!" Rainbow remarks, throwing a hoof into the air. "And think, if Pinkie gets sick or has to do another party, you can fill in with experience and with Captain of the Guards stuff, as well as Crystal Empire prince experience!"

"I should say, Shining, waiting tables is a big responsibility as well as a lot of work, darling." Rarity said, giving a word of precaution to Shining. "May I ask, are you up to it?"

"Hey, I can handle it!" Shining laughs in amusement. If Pinkie can handle being a waiter, so can he!

"Right, I'm curious, Shining." Brian said in amusement. "I heard a rumor that you will be after Twilight's job. Is that true?"

"Wait, what?!" Twilight yelps in a panic. Her eyes widened as she flew around in circles. "No! My big brother is after my job?! Really?! Ben, help me! I can't fail the princess! I will be send back to Magic Kindergarten! Hold me!"

Ben rolls his eyes as he hugs the crying Twilight, insisting, "Twiley, calm down. No one is after your job, not even Shining. Honestly, it's only a rumor after all."

"Oh, really? Oh, right, yes. I knew that. Good thing it was only a rumor in the first place. Never believe a word of it."

Ben and Nyx roll their eyes as the filly said to Brian, "Brian, you shouldn't freak mommy out like that."

"Hey, I heard the rumor, I didn't make it." Brian said to Nyx with a shrug. "I just want to make sure of its true or not before causing another panic like last time."

Pinkamena and Golden heart were watching the show as Pinkamena says, "Well seems like Shining Armor is going to be a waiter for the day."

Lorcan Hyde nearby roll his eyes as he remarks dryly, "Like I haven't heard that before."

Shining grins as he goes over to a nearby table in the dining room. Time to get this going.

"Good evening! I am Shining Armor and I will be your waiter tonight, Master Tao!" Shining said, with his eyes closed.

"What, Master Tao?!" A familiar voice ask in annoyance. Shining opens his eyes and realize, to his shock, that he was talking to Seto the Changeling. "Oh, now you're calling me by that old goat's name? I feel shocked and upset. Now you hurt my feelings. Allow me to introduce you to my pals, Fred and Ed!"

"Let's get him, Fred!" Ed exclaims as he and Fred appears and jumps at Shining, preparing to beat him up. The Bushwoolies and animals watch from nearby, cringing as they prepare for the hurt.

"Hey hey hey! Stop that!" Pinkie exclaims as she jumps in and pushes the Changelings away from Shining. "He's a good pony, break it up, you two meanies! Stop that!" As Shining got up, the pink pony brushes him off. "Geez, you better be careful around Changelings. They can be grumpy nasty meanie pants. Uh, no offense, Seto."

Shining chuckles a bit while rolling his eyes, "Pinkie, while I like the offer, I don't need help, really."

"Oh, yeah, I see. Because 'anypony could do that...even you could if you wanted to'." Pinkie remarks in amusement as she repeats what the stallion said earlier. As Shining heads off, Pinkie giggles. "Okie dokie lokie. Have fun!"

Now at the table of the Drake Trio, Shining came over with a covered dish. He puts it onto the table, saying, "All right, one Golden Beetle for you guys."

Of course, when Shining removes the lid on the dish, the guests saw that there isn't anything on there at all.

"What the-?!" Boomer exclaims, getting upset. "Yo! Waiter! Where the heck is my Golden Beetle! Are you trying to cheat me or something?!"

"Come on, Boomer! You know me. I wouldn't do such a thing." Shining insists, looking bewildered by this. "It was really there before!"

"I think he's telling the truth. After all, we did order the life rare and spicy Golden Beetle." Rob said thoughtfully.

"What?!" Shining yelps as he moves around, trying to get the Golden Beetle off himself, if it was there at all at least. "Get it off me! Get it off me!"

"Or we get the meal out of him... Get him! Don't let it get away!" Boomer exclaims as he and Grunt got the forks out and tackles Shining to the floor.

"Oh no... Stop!" Shining screams in alarm, trying to knock Boomer and Grunt off of himself.

The animals and Bushwoolies cringes a bit. The leader frowns as he whispers to his colleagues. This is far enough!

As Ben was watching his schedule backstage, Fluttershy came over, speaking, "Oh dear! Ben, we got a problem."

Ben looks up and saw the animals marching around, carrying sign that said 'No, Shining, No, Shining' on them. A Bushwoolie was speaking into a megaphone, exclaiming, "We want bad pony out now!"

"Hey, hey, what's going on here?" Ben ask the waiters in concern. "Why aren't you doing your jobs?!'

The animals yells out angrily, speaking their opinions. Fluttershy, translating, explains, "I don't think Ben is doing well at his job at all."

"So Shining is doing bad at his job?" Ben ask the animals and Bushwoolies in concern. The head Bushwoolie took out a note, giving it to Ben who reads it. "Yikes! You've formed a union and now you're on strike?!"

"Yeah, yeah!" The Bushwoolie exclaims in agreement. "Until things get improve, we're on strike! Bye!"

The Bushwoolie continues yelling into the megaphone while Ben and Fluttershy groans in concern. Shining's work is not doing well at all!

A smiling Twilight is on stage, speaking, "All right. If cartoons really make you hungry, folks, then I know you will love this next one, because it's 'Hungarian'!"

JUSSONIC PRESENTS...

Maestro Ben 2 - Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6

"Good evening, folks. Welcome to another performance in the Ponyville Concert hall. Tonight, our prince and infamous inductor, Ben Mare, has come back for his rendition of the infamous Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6, written by famous composter Franz Pegasus. Please, give him a moment of light please."

The curtains open as Ben, in the conductor's outfit, came up to the usual conductor's podium. The pony raises the conductor's stick to get the music ready. As the spotlight appears on Ben, the music begins.

Ben with a smile, conducts the music slowly. So far, the melody is beautiful, all the instruments are playing their parents. Every one of them are obedient. Like the horns, the drums, the cellos, the one violin...

Wait. There wasn't anything for a violin in this performance! Suddenly the violin itself begins stealing the spotlight, performing its own solo. That is until Ben came over, glaring at the instrument, causing it to go back to its corner, standing still. Ben smiles as he continues the performance, it was a nice melody once more, especially with the harps that are playing nicely...

However, the violin snuck over to the horn section, then grabs a trombone, playing around with it. Ben, hearing, glares at the trombone and begins chasing the violin in hope to get rid of it. The rogue instrument goes to various instruments, playing them like the clarinet and the cello. It's enough to cause Ben to spin around dizzily while the cellos begin falling.

Ben snaps his hooves, getting an idea. He manages to get a violin case that the violin came from and went back to the podium. The rogue instrument begins to make a jump...but it ended up landing in the case. Ben closes it tightly, smiling. That's the end of that!

As the violin was wigging tightly in hopes to get freed, Ben smiles as he conducts the music, finishing the piece up. Once the performance is done, Ben and the other instruments bow to the applauding audience as the curtain fell.

"Well, this concludes the Hungarian Rhapsody No. 6. And what a great performance by conductor Ben Mare. He would've do another classical piece, but right now, the Earth Pony is punishing a violin that was causing a ruckus throughout the performance. Thanks and good night, folks!"

THE END

A JUSSONIC PRODUCTION

Ben sighs in the dining room. At least, he, Nyx and Fluttershy was able to calm the animals and Bushwoolies down, getting them to get back to work by promising to triple their salary (plus, Nyx's cuteness and Fluttershy's Stare helped out).

As Ben check the schedule, Twilight came over, asking, "How are things going with Shiny?" The stallion didn't say as he points to the general direction of the audience, making the Alicorn notice. She cringes, "Ouch. That bad?"

Sure enough, in the dining area, Shining is getting the other waiters to get orders to the table, but he is getting a bit stressed and worried.

"All right, uh, the hay fries goes to Dragon Kick? Uh, Aqua gets the Water Stroker." Shining said, freaking out. He yelps as a blast hits him on the flank. While waving his tail off, the unicorn spoke, "Hey, Nightmare Moon. Your Soup of Darkness is coming right up!"

"Hey horn head!" Boomer calls out from his table in annoyance. "We didn't get our Golden Beetle...oh, and here's your underwear!" The Dragon smirks as he holds up a pair of underwear that Shining lost during the struggle earlier.

"Grunt said that we want the Mystic Pony Scarabs with extra fire sauce!" Rob calls out, making Shining nods as he wrote the order down.

"WAITER!" Surprise calls out with a frown to Shining. "There is a hare in my salad!"

Sure enough, there's the Moochick's rabbit pal sitting in the soup, pouting. Brian came over, snapping, "Hey, waiter! Where is my chocolate banana sundae?! I have been waiting for it for an hour now!"

Just as Shining was going to respond, he yelps as Discord spills water onto his head. He snaps, "Well, I didn't order decaf, Shining! This is how you treat your sister's friends?!"

Shining groans as he slaps himself on the head. This job is too much for him! He can't stand it!

Shining was heading to the kitchen, using his magic to bring a few dirty dishes...when the animals rush out with new ones, knocking the unicorn down. He sighs, dizzily.

"Hey, Shining!" Pinkie exclaims happily, bouncing over to Shining. "Wow, are you okay?"

"I'm okay, Pinks." Shining groans, getting back up. "But this job is tough! I don't know how you or even Fluttershy do it!"

"Awww, of course you aren't. That is why you don't need my or Fluttershy's help!"

"YEAH I DO! I need your help, I can't do this by myself! Please, help me, ask Fluttershy to help, but help me!"

"Awww, Shining." Fluttershy giggles as she flew over. The Pegasus pony has overheard what he said. "Just like Applejack when she tried to do Applebuck Season by herself, you only need to ask."

"Yep, I was testing ya as a friend. We will give you all the help you need." Pinkie said to Shining with a helpful smile.

"Oh, thanks." Shining said with a sigh. He will need all the help he can need for this job.

In the kitchen, Mr. and Mrs. Cake came over with the dishes as Pinkie and Fluttershy are preparing to help Shining out.

"Well, Shining. We're going to teach you a trick or so to help make this job better." Fluttershy said to Shining with a smile.

"Right, here goes and to the tune of a popular song!" Pinkie exclaims. She then begins to sing to the tune of 'Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious'.

Fluttershy pushes Shining out to deliver the dishes, but only to the wrong guests.

Shining gets an assortment of the right items that Pinkie threw at him while singing.

The Bushwoolies then brings Shining into the table and right out with new dishes while being clean and fresh. They all sing, "Yumdiddliddlumdiddleei, Yumdiddliddlumdiddleei!"

Blue Berry and Oliver Oreo smiles as the former waves to the waiters. Fluttershy came over with some honey on oats when Shining grabs and delivers.

Pinkie pushes Shining to Lord Tirek, Whimsey Weatherbe and Cassie the Kelpie, pointing to them while singing.

Wind Whistler and Applejack, both from Gen 1, points at Surprise who points to her with a smile as she hears that; the silly pony points at herself while doing so. Pinkie sings while looking at a dirtied Lorcan.

Shining smiles, he got the ideas. So the stallions join the animals and Bushwoolies in cleaning up Lorcan to be nice and new. The waiters sings, "Yumdiddliddlumdiddleei, yumdiddliddlumdiddleei!"

The group serves some substitute meat to Dragoking while the Drake Trio got some dipping sauce for their Golden Beetles, which they got at least which they eat happily. Pinkie, smiling, kept on singing.

So even if they tell you
That they want some heated cold cuts,
Or some mustard mixed with custard
With to dip who knows what!

Ed and Fred were ready to pounce but Pinkamena grabs the two by the necks and is giving a dark glare.

"You both best behave or I am going to have Cupcake flavor Changelings and you two are on the list." Pinkamena said threateningly.

The two sweat like mad and dash into their seats and shiver. Pinkamena slowly walks off as the two slowly turn looking. She back near them and they return to sitting behaved as the mare moves off screen and sits with her brother.

"Well the next show is about to start and also it will have Lord Eric and the Keyblade wielder Sora." Pinkamena said with a smile.

"Well last time I recall.................well it was some time ago, I still owe him so very much for him helping me save you from being turned into a Heartless."

"All right, ponies, get your dinner dates ready for this final cartoon of the night!" Twilight announces happily as she came onto the stage. The audience applauds as the final cartoon begins.

A SORA AND LORD ERIC CARTOON

Sora and Lord Eric's Dinner Date

Sora and Lord Eric pants, arriving at the Carousel Boutique. Sora is holding powers looking concerned. He and Lord Eric are late for their dates.

"Two minutes later. Hope Kairi can forgive us for being late." Sora mumbles in concern as he rang the doorbell.

"Relax, I'm sure they will. They do love us, right?" Lord Eric ask Sora. The two yelps as the door is answered by an upset Rarity and Kairi. "Okay, I could be wrong."

Sora holds the flowers to Kairi who took them. She groans while pointing to the clock, "Well, we were ready 2 minutes ago. But really, guys? Being late?"

"Right. Forgive me but you two are the worst people in the whole world! Why, not only are you slow in thinking up last minute stuff, but every time we go on a date, single or double, one of you also gets upset over the smallest things and lose your temper." Rarity said sternly. "Why, I don't know if either of us want to see you again!"

Kairi scoffs as she closes the door onto the two. Needless to say, Lord Eric got back as he fires blasts at the door, throwing a huge temper. Needless to say, when it's gone, the male unicorn yelps as the girls are still standing right there.

"See, that proves Rarity's point." Kairi said with a groan. "We can expect that from Lord Eric but I am worried about how you will act, Sora."

"Come on, Sora. We're sorry we're late. I promise, what happened on our date the last time, won’t happened again."

"Heck, I will make sure not to get mad or even throw my temper during our date!" Lord Eric insists, pleading to Rarity. "Please, give me another chance."

"Well, I am a lady so I will hold you to that. At least you're willing to forgive yourself unlike that idiot Blueblood." Rarity said with a sigh. She whispers quietly to Kairi who whispers right back. The boys waited as Rarity spoke again, "Very well. It's decided, boys. If neither of you lose your temper once for the whole date, we shall stay with you."

"But I promise, mess up once and it's over, guys." Kairi said sternly. "Sora, I hear Riku is looking for a new girl."

Sora groans, feeling like losing it. But the Keyblade holder calms down, taking a deep breath as he said, "No problem, I will behave."

"Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." Lord Eric said, doing the Pinkie Promise. "There, I won't even break that promise or risk Pinkie hurting me."

"Very well, all right." Rarity said with a nod. "Now, how about you two boys take your ladies out to dinner, hmm?"

The boys take the girls by the arm or forelegs as they head out to dinner. Hopefully everything will turn out well by the time it's over.

Inside a restaurant, the couples take their seats, preparing for dinner. Rarity warns the boys, "Just don't forget. If either of you boys lose your temper even once, you may as well stick a fork in you both. It's over."

"Relax, girls. Everything will turn out fine." Sora said, scratching the back of his head.

Suddenly two familiar ponies in waitress outfits, flew down (or jump down in Pinkie's case) from the ceiling. Rainbow exclaims, "Hey everyone!"

"Gah! Rainbow? Pinkie Pie?" Lord Eric ask in surprise to see his two friends. "What are you two doing here?"

"And luck be have it, we're your waitresses tonight!" Pinkie exclaims happily as she took the cloth that the mare is holding on her forearm...and accidentally slaps Sora with it.

"Temper, Sora, temper." Kairi said, giving a stern warning to Sora. The boy groans but put his Keyblade away.

"Yeah, you two are awesomely lucky. You get the best table in the house, which is right next to the kitchen!" Rainbow points out. Sora and Lord Eric saw the kitchen doors right near their table. The two hears some crashing, making them wince.

"Okie dokie lokie, how about some water and breadstick to start things off?" Pinkie ask playfully, holding a pitcher of water.

As Pinkie pours water into Lord Eric's cup, she calls out loudly through a megaphone, "HEY! THE UNICORNS AND HUMANS WANT BREADSTICKS FOR TABLE 29!"

Of course, Pinkie ends up moving her foreleg, causing ice cold water to be pour right onto Lord Eric, making him yelp. The unicorn growls as his horn begins to shine, about to lose it.

"Why, Lord Eric. Is that your temper showing?" Rarity ask her colt friend suspiciously.

Lord Eric calms down, saying with a smile, "Why no, actually no. Of course not. Just a little wet."

"Good! Heard you made a Pinkie Promise. And you ponies know how I hate it when folks break a Pinkie Promise." Pinkie said, giving a stern look to Lord Eric. She always know when someone makes a Pinkie Promise or breaks it. And trust me folks, you don't wanna get on her bad side if you break a Pinkie Promise, even one!

"Now then, we will be right back to take your order!" Rainbow exclaims as he and Pinkie heads into the kitchen...only for the door that was opened to smack Sora out of his seat. The Keyblade holder groans as he got back in. Hopefully it will be worth it!

It was a little later as the couples look at the menus for something to eat. Rarity nods as she and Kairi closes her menu, the mare said, "We are ready to order, boys. Can you get the waiter?"

"Right, sure." Sora said as he turns to the kitchen, seeing Rainbow coming out. "Hey, Rainbow? Excuse..." Of course, the human saw that the Pegasus pony is delivering a load of dishes. Sora frowns but smiles upon seeing her come back. "Hey, Rain..."

Of course, Rainbow passes the table once more with dirty dishes, planning on putting them into the dishwasher inside the kitchen. As she goes inside, Sora smiles sheepishly at the impatient Rarity.

"Hey, excuse me..." Sora calls out to Rainbow who comes on out...with a wheelbarrow of food. The human groans as his friend comes back with more dirty dishes. "Hey, excuse me, hello?"

Sora does his best not to lose his temper, especially since the others are keeping an eye on him. Lord Eric, trying to help, blows a horn and uses his magic to waves some flag in hopes to get Rainbow's attention. The mare kept delivering food in weird ways, delivering dirty dishes in weird ways too...only to break them.

Sora hold up a stop sign to get Rainbow's attention but it didn't work. The human is about close to losing his temper as he slams his face.

"Are you going to lose your temper, Sora?" Kairi ask her boyfriend suspiciously.

"No, no, of course not." Sora said, taking a deep breath while counting to ten. "I wouldn't do that."

Suddenly Pinkie pops up, causing Sora to jump up to the ceiling in fright as she ask, "Ready to order? Sorry, Rainbow is busy so I will be giving out the order.”

Once Sora got out of the ceiling, he frowns angrily in his seat as Kairi gives out her order, "I will have the fish dinner."

"Soup or salad?" Pinkie ask with a smile, making the girls a bit annoyed, especially when the pink pony isn't writing anything in a pad.

"Croutons or substitute bacon bits?" Pinkie ask with a helpful smile to the girls.

"Croutons of course!" Rarity snaps in annoyance, about to lose her temper...which is ironic because she and Kairi demanded their boyfriends not to do the same thing.

"Nope! Got it memorized!" Pinkie exclaims happily as she bounces into the kitchen. Then the mare came back with Rainbow, smiling. "But can you tell Rainbow in case I do forget?"

The boys couldn't help but chuckle; that was a bit funny. The girls however frowns in annoyance. That joke wasn't funny at all to them.

Rainbow came back, dressed as a salad chef, with a few vegetables, a bowl and knives, pushing a table with the stuff on it. The Pegaus soon exclaims, "All right, you four! Time for a salad made fresh at your table by the awesome Rainbow Dash!"

The couples watch in interest, expecting Rainbow to entertain them. Rainbow begins chopping the lettuce and tomatoes, view her wing. She ended up tossing the knife aside and right at Lord Eric who ducked in time. Rainbow then tossed in a huge watermelon by turning it into a salad shooting gun, shooting watermelon flavoring onto the salad, much to Kairi's shock and annoyance.

Suddenly, Rainbow removes a bit of Rarity's mane and put it into the salad shooter, turning it into little mane croutons. The Pegasus pony then mixed up the salad before putting part of it into Rarity's salad bowl...then she grabs Sora's baseball hat that he's wearing and put some salad right on there, serving the stuff.

Rarity looks annoyed at the salad, especially when some of her mane is now a crouton on it. The white unicorn is getting upset that her mane was ruined! Sora of course is enjoying his salad. Yeah, he should be upset that his hat was used as a salad bowl, but at least the service was good. So why be angry, right?

"What?" Rarity snaps angrily, forgetting that she and Kairi are supposed to make sure that neither of the boys are losing their tempers. "Oh, oh yes, you boys are doing fine."

"Great to hear!" Sora exclaims as he continues eating his salad. Kairi sighs a bit. Hopefully dinner will be worth it.

Pinkie came back, serving the couples with their own dinners, which are covered with napkins.

"Can't wait!" Sora exclaims as he lifts his captain, only to see a fish on his plate. Kairi removes her own napkins, but got a steak instead of a fish. As for Rarity and Lord Eric, the mare got a rose dinner while Lord Eric got a daisy sandwich.

"Hey, Pinks? I think you got my dinner mixed-up. I got the steak." Sora said to Pinkie in concern.

"Right, and our flowers are mixed up too." Lord Eric said, nodding in agreement.

"Really? Sorry. Let me correct it." Pinkie said with a shrug. The boys and girls look surprised as the pink pony spins the table around, calling out like a gambler caller. "Come on, steak! Come on, daisy!"

The customers and patrons begins gathering around the table, placing their bets while cheering for the steak. The girls frown at Pinkie in annoyance...but soon the table stopped at the right time with the orders going to the right customer.

"Yay, I win!" Pinkie exclaims with a giggle. Rarity and Kairi sighs. At least that's over, now they can eat their fish and daisy sandwich.

But then Rainbow came in, spinning the table as she exclaims, "Oh yeah, let her ride! Double or nothing, come on, fish! Come on, rose!"

The table stops spinning. The fish ends up on Kairi's chest with the daisy on Rarity's mane. Sora's steak and Lord Eric's rose dinner are currently fine.

"I agree." Lord Eric remarks, eating his own meal. "How are you girls enjoying your meal?"

Needless to say, Kairi and Rarity growls angrily. Now they are getting close to losing their tempers! Hoo boy.

After a few more meals that the boys ordered, with the girls not even touching their own in anger, Sora sighs, relaxing as he said, "Boy, am I full."

"Hey, humans and ponies!" Pinkie exclaims as she came back with Rainbow. Smiling, the pink pony said, "We hope you enjoyed your meal!"

Pinkie and Rainbow smiles as they grab the plates and silverware on the table...and then balance them with their hooves. However, Pinkie yelps as she is having trouble keeping balance while going into the kitchen.

Then things get silly as Pinkie and Rainbow each go in and out of the kitchen, trying to keep their balances on the dishes. Rainbow came out suddenly, balancing on a beach ball before going back in. When Rainbow went back in, the pink pony came out on a cheese wheel before going back in. Rainbow came out on three beach balls, Pinkie on a bicycle, Rainbow on a bicycle on beach balls...with both waitresses coming out on beach balls.

The couples cringe, preparing for the worst. But surprisingly, Pinkie and Rainbow kept their hold on the dishes. Rainbow chuckles as their friends opens their eyes, "Oh brother. You four thought we were going to drop them, right?"

The two sighs in relief. Pinkie lets go of her dishes for a brief moment to give them the check, saying, "Oh, here's your check, folks!" She then put her hooves on the top of the bottom of the plates...but causing a pea to fell right onto Kairi. "Oops, sorry! Let me get that, Kairi!"

Kairi frowns as she took out a purse and hits Pinkie with it, causing the pink pony to fall down, bumping into Rainbow and causing their own dishes to crash down all over the plate.

The Boys laughs like mad, though the girls are beginning to get mad. Sora ask, "Wow, girls, you aren't going to lose your temper, right?"

"UGH! YOU BET YOU’RE FLANKS WE ARE!" Rarity yells out furiously. "THIS SERVICE IS THE MOST TERRIBLE THAT I HAD EVER SEEN! I'VE HAD IT! WHY, WE HAVE NEVER HAD SUCH MISERABLE SERVICE EVER!"

"WHY DID WE EVEN COME HERE, WHY?!" Kairi screams out loudly and angrily. Sora and Lord Eric laughs at the irony. The girls dare them not to lose their temper once...and in the end, it was both of them who threw the temper tantrum.

"Okay, okay, we will pay the check." Sora said as he checks the check. But his eyes widen in shock as he yells, "WHAT?! NO WAY! WE CAN'T AFFORD THIS!"

Lord Eric checks the check and begins losing his temper at the same time as Sora. The male unicorn yells out, "THIS IS RIDICULOUS! WE GET GOOD FOOR AND HAVE TO PAY THIS?! WHAT KIND OF FOLKS CHARGE US FOR THIS?!"

The couples lose their tempers, jumping up and down in anger, yelling out gibberish phrases, much to the amusement of Pinkie and Rainbow who got back up.

"Well, Pinkie, Sora, Kairi, Rarity and Lord Eric do make a good couple." Rainbow remarks with a light chuckle. "They do enjoy getting mad together!'

"Yep! And since the Cartoon's over, I will let Lord Eric's promise breaking slip!" Pinkie exclaims. She blow a kiss to the audience, saying, "That's all, folks!"

THE END

A JUSSONIC PRODUCTION

Things at the House of Pony are doing fine, thanks to Shining doing his job great, thanks to his friends tonight. The guests approved of his work now, even the staff does.

Pinkamena comments on the last short, "Sora and Kairi were made for one another Hands/hooves down. The same with the other two. Also, seems things are going well for Shining Armor."

"Having friends help." Golden Heart admits to his sister. She nods and eats a cupcake on her table left by Shining as he passed by.

A while later, at the entrance of the club, Twilight, Nyx, Rainbow and Rarity came over to Shining, Pinkie and Fluttershy. The Alicorn said with a smile, "You did great out there today, big bro."

"Yeah, Uncle Shiny! I was worried you would mess up...but you became a great waiter." Nyx giggles, nuzzling her uncle on the leg.

"To be honest, thanks, though I didn't do it alone." Shining said with a smile, motioning to Pinkie and Fluttershy. "I got help from these two here."

"You three make a great team!" Rarity exclaims with Rainbow nodding in agreement.

"Well, Shining, you can say you're learning friendship on this job, right Shining?"

Yeah, guess so." Shining said with a chuckle. "I can see why my little sister has you two for friends. Pinkie is random and Fluttershy is meekish, but you helped out your friends when you can."

"Yep! Anyway, you did great today, Shining," Pinkie exclaims with a smile to Shining. "Who knows? Maybe you will have a very important job like yours truly!"

"Pinkie, I already got one, remember? I park the cars for the customers at the House of Pony."

"Awww, come on! Can't be that hard! It isn't like waiting tables! Any pony can do it, even me! Watch!"

Pinkie rushes outside, Shining and Fluttershy watch, wondering what the mare will do. They cringe however as the sound of a car screeching is heard followed by a crash. It doesn't take a Pinkie Sense to see what happened.

"Right, maybe it's for the best for Pinkie to stick to her job." Fluttershy said meekly to Shining who nods in agreement.

Twilight got back onstage to finish the show up. She spoke, "All right, Spike! You know what to do!"

"Sure do, Twilight!" Spike exclaims with a smile. He then gives out the announcement, "Table waiting service provided by...Fluttershy's Animals!"

We see a still-shot screen of a rabbit holding a plate for a customer. The words 'Fluttershy's Animal Waiters' are on the screen.

The next still shot now has Wild Maniac, awake, looking at a delicious meal with the squirrel smiling in satisfaction.

The next still show now has Tree Hugger checking out a menu while a flamingo waits patiently for her to decide.

Tree Hugger, grinning, gives some nuts over to the flamingo who is now using a baseball cap to get them.

And now, the next still shows a bear giving a nice big good luck cake to Trouble Shoes who smiles a bit.

"Fluttershy's Animals! They're Fluttershy-ingly terrific!" We see Tank now sleeping with Spike adding in a low voice, "Warning: some animals may hibernate during winter."

"That's it for today, everyone!" Twilight exclaims to the crowd with a smile. "See you all later!"
