	You head over to Donut Joe’s. Opening the door, you can see that nothing is all that unusual. Granted, Donut Joe is bouncing his disembodied head on the counter like a basketball, and there’s a bunch of donuts sitting at a table playing poker, but, otherwise, it’s fairly normal. 
You pick up a bear claw from Joe (which is literally a bear’s claw) and take a seat, waiting for the thirty minutes to pass. Finally, Rainbow marches through the door, a sly look on her face. She takes a seat across from you and gives you a curt nod. “Before we start, I just want to say, ‘Let the best pony win.’” She reaches a non-suspicious hoof out, offering to shake your hand. In a sign of respect, you reach across the table. However, the instant you grab hold of it, you can feel energy course through your body, and you leap from your seat, smoking slightly. 
“Ow.” you respond. “OW.” you add for emphasis.
Joybuzzer. Your one true weakness.
“Very clever,” you say, sitting back down. “Taking advantage of my kindness to pull a prank. Very clever indeed…”
“Beat that.” she smugly replies.
“Very well.”
The two of you sit there. Rainbow seems a bit vigilant, trying to see if she can foil your prank before it even starts. Minutes pass. Then tens of minutes.
“Has the prank happened yet?”
“Nope.”
“… What about now?”
“Nope.”
An hour passes. Two hours. You can see Rainbow sweating, a crazed look in eyes as they dart around the room. She knew the prank could strike at anytime, but what was it?! When?! Where?! Should she get up to go to the little pegasi’s room? Or maybe the prank was in there?!
You’re about to get up and grab another cup of Joe (the coffee, not the pony), when Rainbow snaps.
“I can’t stand it! Where’s the prank?! What are you up to?!” you can see her starting to foam at the mouth. “I give! I can’t wait any longer! What’s the stupid prank?!”
“Nothing.”
“… Nothing?”
“Yep.”
A moment of silence. Rainbow Dash stares at you, unable to comprehend what you just said. Then she begins to laugh. Like, hysterically. You should probably back away.
Finally, tears streaming down her face, Rainbow says, “That’s great! I never thought the best prank would be nothing at all! You win, hooves down!”
At last! A plan that actually worked! In triumph, you slip the Element around Rainbow’s neck, and you’re momentarily blinded as the rainbow coloring returns with a flash of bright light.
Congrats, brony/pegasister. You’ve returned Rainbow to her original self, and she’s perfectly willing to help in the final confrontation against Discord!
Now, go get them other ponies!

> To the list! Vamanos!
