Rap Battle #30
"Just a hunch!" With a playful grin and a squee, Pinkie jumped away, leaving the others to shake their heads.
The newly-crowned princess rolled her eyes and nodded down the hall. "Come on, everypony. We've got a Princess Summit to-"
Crash.
Twilight stopped in the middle of the hallway, her ear twitching slightly. She turned to her ex-mentor, concerned. “Did you… hear that?”
The white alicorn frowned, turning back to the room they just left. “I did. Something else came through.” She held up a hoof as Twilight moved to pass her. “No, I’ll go investigate. You need to get some rest.”
She moved to argue but, seeing the resolve in the other pony’s eyes, slowly nodded, turning and following her friends.
The solar princess watched her until she went around the corner before she slowly walked back to the room, her body relaxing from its forced regal pose. She pushed open the door and stopped, eyes wide in shock. On the ground before her lay an amber unicorn. She slowly stood up, shaking her flame-colored mane as she regained her bearings.
Celestia stepped forward, holding a trembling hoof out to her. “Sunset… you finally returned…”
She looked up at her and quickly turned away, her ears flat against her head. “Of course… Equestria’s my home, after all…” Her cyan eyes darted about the room, a small frown on her lips. “Where is Twilight?” Despite her calm demeanor, the last word was almost spat out, as if it had left a bad taste in her mouth.
The diarch sighed, bowing her head slightly. “She’s not here. If you so desire, I can go find her for you…” At the curt nod from the mare, she turned and left, her heart heavy with sadness. As she left earshot, she somberly whispered to herself. “You really haven’t changed…”
High above the clouds, a chariot and its passengers soared along. One of the ponies turned to the lone stallion among them, still confused. “So why are we suddenly going to the Crystal Empire, again?”
He sighed in annoyance, turning to her and forcibly spitting out strands of his sienna mane. “Because Princess Celestia called for us.” He glanced to the other mare, quirking an eyebrow. “Why she requested her, however, I’ve no idea.”
The azure unicorn scowled harshly at him, bristling in silent anger. “It is because Trixie is a wonderful performer.” She shrugged, turning to look over the sea of white. “Not that somepony as uncultured as you would know.”
His eye twitched slightly, and he turns to the other unicorn, frowning deeply. “Can I borrow your headset, Vi? Please?”
“Nope.” She pointed in front of them, a tall crystal tower in front of them. “We’re already here.”
Their chariot landed on a balcony and they quickly get off it. The stallion stepped forward and held a hoof up to their driver, smiling warmly. “Thank you. Hope you get that raise.”
“There you are, my little ponies.” Celestia walked onto the crystal platform with an orange pegasus and a purple alicorn in tow. She smiled warmly at them, nodding briefly. “I’m glad you all were able to come so quickly. We need to act soon.”
Vinyl quirked an eyebrow, holding up a hoof. “Pardon me, Princess, but why the rush? And why are we here?”
For the second time since they’ve known her, her expression hardened from the motherly warmth it normally held. “We have to give a former student of mine a lesson.”
On the underside of the balcony, a figure stirred, scratching his chin with a talon. “This sounds interesting…”
“What is taking her so long?” Sunset Shimmer frowned, staring at the door as she paced. “Surely it isn’t that difficult to locate the newest Princess?”
After another couple minutes, she stopped, bristling with bottled-up fury. “Forget it. I’m gonna find her, myself!” She rushed out the room and down the hall, her horn lit up in a detection spell. She easily navigated the maze of hallways, soon reaching a pair of large doors.
Her brow furrowed and she activated a different spell, scanning the door for any anomalies. Finding none, she pushed it open, recoiling at the fog pouring out. “What the…” she scoffed, stepping through the door and moving through the thick haze.
Murky fog covered the room, obscuring all but the most basic shapes and movement, and what movement there was was mysterious indeed. Four figures, one taller than the rest, stood stock still, barely discernable from the furniture. Above, a single other form can be seen flitting around the ceiling. Finally, near the shadowy throne, the reflections of two lens peer out from the mist.
She glared at the silhouettes and continued moving along in a straight direction. “Nothing’s going to stop me from getting even with that-” She yelped, cutting herself off as a bright light suddenly shone on her, raising a hoof to shield her eyes.
Another light landed on a figure to her right. She stared at the mare, confused by the glare she’s getting from her. Her ear twitches as some music starts playing in the background.
EPIC RAP BATTLES OF MLP!
VS.
BEGIN!
Come on, Sun! I’m about to make you wish you weren’t born
You pathetic, lonely, wannabe unicorn
I am the star of the magic game; you’re just a bore
I’m not known for my heart, but it’s still more than yours
You remind me of Snips and Snails trying to please me, ‘cause you disgust me
Keep your fake Element of Harmony away from me, don’t even touch me
I don’t fake it, I disgrace pricks, tear it down faster than the Ursa did
Even Twilight approves of my magic tricks; you could barely conquer a high school, bitch!
My raps corrupt you; leave you crying all over the place
You’re about to get whooped by three ponies who remember your face
So by the moon rise, if you won’t accept friendship, you’ll lose this race
Now I’m out; I got better things to do, you’re just a waste
How dare you come at me, little loser showmare?
You're a crappy rap-spitting failed magician, I ain't scared
Of this silly filly, boast all you want, I don't care
I do not believe in friends and I don't believe your flair
Don’t panic, dear; but you’re about to crash
I am the princess, here to show you the past
You were one of my greatest students ‘til you went too fast
You wanted more too quickly, and then it all collapsed
Left the world through a mirror, then you came back to claim it
Why didn’t you just listen and try to be patient?
Now your pride is the evil that’ll tear you apart
Unless you change and let friendship into your heart
Oh, stop it! Your raps don’t dissuade me, you’re a phony
You may be the princess, but that doesn’t mean you own me
Fortune and control, that’s the life I’ve selected
So enough with your lessons from the past, I’m not affected
Well you're about to be right now
Let me tell you what's right now
Just take a lesson from Sentry
You’re missing the point there, Sunsetty
There's more to life than popularity
You could even learn that from Rarity
Best make some friends or you’ll lose this
Despite what you think it’s not useless
If you don’t then it won’t be too long ‘fore
The Elements come back to give you an encore
No, this isn’t happening!
All of the memories blackening; wait! Actually
If I recall what that showpony said
Two ponies have come and there’s still one left
Boo! (Hey!) Listen to me
Or you’re gonna lie buried six feet deep
Without anypony to mourn your passing
And nothing you’ve done that’s deserving of lasting
‘Cause you've chosen the path of a selfish mare
And your actions are leaving you in disrepair
The ponies you’ve shunned will give you one chance
Will you take their hoof or fall with your plans?
Is this a telling of things that will be? Or things that may be, only?
If I give up all my plans, can they change? Tell me it’s true with what you show me
I promise to mend my ways; a friend to all ponies I will become
I’ve listened, I haven’t missed my chance to be different; oh bless us, every-
WHO WON? WHO’S NEXT? YOU DECIDE!
EPIC RAP BATTLES OF MLP!
“Big thanks to both RLYoshi and Rhino for their help with this chapter, both in the story and in the rap battle!” 
“Yes, we do realize that this is more of an homage rap battle, but we don't care. We wrote it the week the original came out, so it will count! Not going to be as many updates as there were, before - at least, not all in a tight little schedule. E and I are still focusing on those collabs and his classes, after all.”
“Since E’s otherwise occupied, I have one tiny request. While there’s a TVTropes page for this story, there’s currently nothing on it. Can someone please take care of that, for us?” 
“I’ll get E to draw a pic for you, if you do!~”
“I think that’s all. Party on, dudes!”
“Vinyl, signing off!”

My vote goes for Trixie, Also who was the last pony singing. Death? Discord? etc?
What. A rap-battle in the style of Scrooge (Another Night Before Christmas)? Me likey. Sunset won this one. Bonus points because solo against technically four opponents.
Edit - 3972851
I think it was 'demonized' Sunset
Donald Trump vs Ebeneezer Scrooge?
Does this mean Flash Sentry is Kanye West?
A couple of the lines have too many syllables by the way.
Anyways, I suppose Trixie wins though it's more a story than an actual rap battle.
I vote Trixie as well.
Trixie!
trixie sunset had a good second line but couldn't catch up though
3972872
3972851
"Correct on the second guess. It was Discord!"
So hilairous how this was modeled after the Season Finale of ERB
Discord had to be my favorite part (Though I also loved the J.P Morgan part, too 
)
3974361
I guess it is kinda silly, but it's not a bad thing, is it?
Trixie. She did much better than she did against Twi here:
Am I the only here who only reads the rap battle parts?
3974923 I say Trixie wins... and I want Pinkamena Diane Pie to come out and rap next if that is possible
did anyone els get the three sprits of Christmas vibe or is it just me
Time to read the rap again with the original playing along. Oh, and I vote for Death. Not Discord. Death.
Sunset did good, but the other's just outclassed her with each of their stanza's so...Everypony except sunset won...hope that's clear for ya E!
What happened to the whole, Link a song for each battle thing?
3991481
"This one had a specific beat it comes off, but there isn't an instrumental version, as of yet."
3974923 No, I do it too
And by the way... I'm gonna say that... Flash Sentry definitely earned the win. His rap and stanza was just way past cool.
So... What a great rap battle!
Never saw it coming, to be honest.
Trixie brada
I love this. A bit close to Trump V Scrooge, but it seems to be an homage, rather than a lack of originality (as I know you have much of that), so it's made a bit cooler by that.
And I like the Bill & Ted reference in that signoff, Vi.
3972851 I think it might've been Vi, but that might not be true.
I... uh... vote for the announcer... the one that said, "EPIC RAP BATTLES OF MLP!"
...
Can I also give a half-vote to Celestia?
4182324 lol You're the first person to realize I wasn't trying to make a terrible pun.
I like the last rapper before the end
OMG one of my questions was answered in q&a 3. I never meant it to be a Question like that (I think...) but OMG it was answered and by fluttershy
You write flutter so well...
Begins to cry from happyness
How many rap battles will there be?
I vote for the Great and Powerful Trixie!
I vote for...... Noble from lost pause!
Sunset won, no doubt.
these are my top 2 mlp characters...
