//------------------------------// // Establishing the Troupe: 1 // Story: The Pink Wall breakers Theatre // by Ponyess //------------------------------// This event started shortly after the Battle of the Bands; of course we had crushed the Dazzlings, and their defeat was nothing short of epic. It had been an uphills struggle, until we realized our mistake. This is when Vinyl Scratch opened the door, and helped us out; just in time to oppose the Dazzlings in the final thrust, ending the battle once and for all. The pendants that had been their source of power all along, had been shattered on the stage in the final moment; and they fled in disgrace after the audience had turned into an angry, mob that rejected them flatly. I had met Twilight Sparkle on campus on several occasions; she had after all helped us taking down Sunset Shimmer, and to defeat the Sirens fashioning themselves the Dazzlings. The shattered remnants of the Dazzlings was picked up, and stored away; just to make certain, they never got in the wrong hands. When Midnight Shimmer from Crystal prep signed up; I ended up giving her the shards of the red crystals. I had determined her the best person to handle them for us; since she had proven herself on the subject, even if it did take Sunset Shimmer an effort to guide her; before she realized what she had been doing. “Rarity, would you like to help me establishing a theatre; by supplying the suits, and costumes the troupe should perform, wearing?” I inquired, as I met her in the hall, between classes. “Certainly, for you I would do anything; and you know it, Pinkie!” she responded, smiling at me. “I may, but it is the right thing to do, asking your friends; rather than blatantly assuming you would do it for me!” I pointed out. “That is the Ladylike manner, as opposed to the brutish ways. Do I have a better reason to help you?” she pointed out. “Aside from how many smiles our theatre could spread; while showcasing your brilliant, and beautiful creations, you mean?” I suggested. “These are great arguments, as well. I know just how much it means to you to see us smile, and showcasing my work is good publicity, all the same!” she responded. “I'll need a few actors and actresses; aside from musicians to present the show, in which we are to play!” I added. “We could always pull our old band together; not that we really parted ways, or stopped playing together!” she suggested. “That is a good start, we have instruments to play. You think Fluttershy would write a few sings, for the show?” I put forth. “If you ask her, hands down!” she pointed out, with utter confidence. “Hiya, Sunny!” I exclaimed as I bumped into my friend. “Oh, but hi, Pinkie!” she responded. “Any particular on your mind?” she then added, as an afterthought. “Naeh, nothing much. I'm just trying to pull together a few friends, in order to establish a theatre troupe!” I giggled, trying to make an innocent face, but the impersonation failed. “Sounds like fun; I’m in!” she responded. “Thanks, Sunny!” I exclaimed; only to bump into Vinyl Scratch, as I was walking down the hall towards the next class. “Hiya, Pinkie!” she exclaimed. “Hiya, Vinyl; would you like to help me organizing the music, for a theatre?” I inquired. “Since it is you, Pinkie, and you did ask me; sure thing!” she responded. “Then I know the music will be solid; and epic, with you behind the board!” I prompted. “Hiya, Octavia!” I exclaimed as I stopped by the music room, where she was playing her cello. “Hiya, Pinkie; nice to see you checking in on us musicians, from time to time!” she expressed. “Of course, Octavia; I couldn’t live without music, it is after all vital to a good party!” I prompted. “That sounds about right, Pinkie!” she responded, with a slight hint of a giggle on her voice. As I looked further into the room, I could see Bulk Biceps playing his violin in another corner. Then I couldn’t void noticing Lyra and Bon Bon on the Piano. “Hiya, Bulk, Lyra and Bonny!” I extended the greeting to the other girls. “I am trying to put together a theatre troupe, and am in need of a few instruments!” I prompted. “Theatre? Sounds interesting, I will have a look at it!” she committed. I could see the others nodding, interested in what I had in mind. “Strings will give your theatre a special mood to it, going a very long way towards perfecting your play!” Octavia concluded. “That is exactly the impression I had, Octavia. That is why I asked you, in the first place!” I explained. “Classical instruments will always be on the floor of a theatre worth seeing!” Lyra prompted. “When it comes to establish a subtle mood, nothing can ever bear the sounds of acoustic instruments; in the hands of a skilled, and talented musicians such as you!” I added. “Thank you, Pinkie Pie!” Lyra and Bon Bon chorused. “You are quite welcome. I'll see you again, in order to pull this off!” I pointed out. “I am looking forwards to see, what your first play will be!” Octavia stated; and the others nodded eagerly in ascent, to what she had just said. “Then I will see you by tomorrow!” I suggested. “Certainly!” Octavia agreed. “Midnight, I'm trying to put together a theatre. I hope you'd come, too!” I prompted. “A theatre?” she responded. “It will be fun. I understand that you're a bit on the shy side, and still do have issues on the friendships. Then you need to see Fluttershy?” I suggested. “I did not do well with friends at my previous school, they merely tolerated me for my grades!” she conceded. “We're very different, here at Canterlot High. I did see a sample of what you can do, I'm sure you can accomplish wonders. Besides, I can never have enough friends. I need you to enjoy yourself here!” I prompted. “I noticed that, when I met your friends!” she agreed. --- --- ---
