Chapter 4

For the rest of the day, Vinyl, with help from Octavia, gets the stage ready, putting curtains, getting a microphone ready and setting up lights. Finally, it is half an hour before sunset and ponies start to take their sets. The competitors make their way back stage. Vinyl and Octavia head backstage too for a final talk.

‘Hey everypony! Well, today is the day! Good luck. And even though five out of you eight will win, every one of you are winners to me. Let’s have fun!’

Everypony “Yeah!”s in unison and Vinyl announces that the competition starts in five minutes. Rainbow Dash takes out the book with her rap in it and starts to write in it. Twilight notices this and goes over to her.

‘Rainbow Dash? What are you doing?’ asks Twilight

‘I am changing my script. There is no way that I can beat Big Mac with the old script. But I just remembered something which will guarantee my win!’

‘Um...I don’t think that is a good idea!’

Just then, the light gets darker, indicating that the competition/performance has begun.

Vinyl gets ready to begin, but her heart suddenly becomes twice as heavy as she hesitates to step beyond the curtain. Octavia notices this and swiftly makes her way to her friend’s side.

‘You are going to be fine!’ Octavia says with a warm smile and pat on the back.

Vinyl gathers her courage and steps onto the main stage, where she is met by the applause of the hundreds of ponies in front of her.She takes a deep breath and begins.

‘Welcome everypony to Vinyl Scratch’s Epic Rap Battles of Ponyville! Today, we have four pairs of ponies ready to rap to the finish! And in the end, YOU decide the winner! Round 1: Rarity VS Trixie! Battle…..BEGIN!

Trixie:
Just back down now
Or you’ll be on my plate
Did you forget, I’m Trixie
The Powerful and Great!

I honestly think that
This match is too unfair
I have crazy rapping skills
Which are far beyond compare!

Rarity:
Enough already, Trixie!
I’ve heard more than I’ve seen
Your rapping is so bad
That it’s making my ears bleed!

I would call you a show off
But you’ve got nothing to show
You say you do great things
But like your act, it’s all faux

Trixie:
What are you going to do?
Dress me to death?
I see that you are struggling
While I hardly broke a sweat

Your special talent is finding gems
You may think it is true
But it’s nothing but a spell
Any unicorn can too.

Rarity:
Atleast I have a talent
All you have is your big mouth!
And at least I know fashion
Your hat and cape are so out.

You’ve gone mad for power
And once enslaved the town
You think that you’re so great
But the truth is, you’re a clown!

Trixie:
You look like a clown
With all the make-up that you wear
Spending all your useless time
Just doing your hair

And if you think you burnt me
I didn’t hear an “ouch”
Why don’t you go cry and whine
On your fainting couch?

Rarity:
I think you will need that couch
Because I am here to fight
And if you think I’m in the dark
You have never seen light!

I have worked for months to bring out
All my grace and charm
What have you been working on?
Oh, yes, a rock farm!

As Rarity and Trixie exit the stage, a roar of applause follows them.

‘Oh my goodness! That was amazing!’ says Rarity, as excited as she is relieved that it is finally over.

‘“Humph” You did good, Rarity. Not as good as me, but not bad.’ says Trixie, trying to be complimentary, but also not.

Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Twilight and Rainbow Dash all race over to Rarity.

‘Awesome job!’ says Rainbow Dash

‘It must have been hard to go first!’ says Applejack

‘You sounded so confident!’ says Twilight

‘Woo-hoo! Go Rarity!’ says Pinkie Pie

Trixie clears her throat loud enough to grab the five ponies’ attention.

‘Oh..uh...you were great too, Trixie.’ says Applejack, struggling to get any words out of her mouth. The other ponies only smile and nod their heads. Rarity goes over to Trixie and holds out her hoof. Trixie shakes it.

‘Well, that was fun. May the best mare win!’ says Rarity

‘Oh, I plan to!’ Trixie responds, completely confident in herself.

Octavia comes over to the group of mares. ‘Rainbow Dash, you are almost up.’

‘Got it!’ says Rainbow as she follows Octavia to the stage. The other ponies wish her good luck, even Trixie. Rainbow stands behind the curtain, with Big Mac a distance apart. ‘Time to win this!’

‘I hope you like that battle-’ says Vinyl to the audience, ‘-because we have three more where that came from! And now...Round 2: Rainbow Dash VS Big Macintosh! Battle...Begin!

Rainbow Dash:
Hey there, Big Macintosh
Would you like some grapes?
Oh I forgot, you don’t eat anything
Unless it is apple shaped!

I’m gonna win this battle
So don’t bring up your hopes!
I know all your next sentences:
Eeyup; Nope

Big Mac:
I normally don’t talk
But I can give this a pass
Don’t think about winning
This battle won’t even last

Hit me with your next shot
Come on, don’t feel sad
Maybe the Sonic Rainboom was
the only trick you had!

Rainbow Dash:
You know, I always hear
“Applejack and Apple Bloom”
I guess they forgot big brother
and tossed you out like a broom

We pegasi are way better
Than you could ever dream to be
While you’re stuck on the ground
we fly over land and sea

Big Mac:
You call yourself loyal
But your element is wrong
You sided with the FlimFlams
After just a silly song

Don’t forget that Earth ponies
Grow all of your food
You call yourself a rainbow
But I mostly see blue

Rainbow Dash:
You might be strong
But I’m 20% Cooler
I am totally awesome
While you’re a big loser

You get people to think you’re wise
from your silent trance
But I know your secret:
You have Twilight’s Smarty Pants!

Big Mac:
You may look like a mare
But on the inside, you’re a colt
Your flying is so bad that
I could be a wonderbolt!

You may know my secret
But I know yours too
I’m gonna shout to the crowd that-

Rainbow Dash:
I’M GONNA KILL YOU!

The crowd is silent as the spotlight is on Big Mac, now pinned to the ground by Rainbow Dash, growling at him. Vinyl, Twilight and Applejack run to help. Vinyl and Twilight lift Rainbow off Big Mac, with Rainbow still fighting to get free. She stops fighting and looks at the audience, who are in completely silent, with their mouths dropped. Rainbow Dash hangs her head and gets the two ponies drag her backstage. Applejack helps her brother up and leads him backstage. Vinyl, remembering about the audience, runs up to the mic.

‘Uh...this competition will resume after a short break’

Backstage, everypony is furious at Rainbow Dash.

‘What were you thinking!’ scolds Twilight, ‘I mean, seriously, what were you thinking! I told you it was a bad idea to change the script!’

‘Wait-’ interrupts Applejack, ‘-You changed the script! Do you realized that you just embarrassed by brother in front of hundreds of ponies?!’

Rainbow Dash hung her head. ‘You guys are right. I guess I let winning get the better of me.’ She walks over to Big Mac. ‘Hey...um...I’m sorry. Really, for everything.’ Rainbow, not expecting him to forgive her, walks back. a throat was cleared behind her and Rainbow turns to see Big Mac holding his hoof out. Rainbow gives him a hoof-bump and exchange smiles.

Zecora puts her hoof on Twilight’s shoulder. ‘Come now; Our chance is here/ Step on stage; Leave behind your fears’

Twilight nods and the two position themselves behind the curtain, ready to rap!

‘Well, that last round was...different’ Vinyl says to the audience, ‘Now, who is ready for Round 3?’ The crowd responds with a roar

‘Okay! Round 3! Twilight VS Zecora. Battle...BEGIN!

Twilight:
My name is Twilight Sparkle
Because I light up the stage
You better give up now
Before you taste my rage

I am the Princess of Friendship
I’m an alicorn, you see
Don’t think that your silly brews
Can help you beat me!

Zecora:
You should be giving up
You are wasting my time
Do you dare challenge me
To a battle of rhyme?!

I’ve got more magic than you
With nothing but my brews
I’ll buck you backstage
With all four of my hooves

Twilight:
You are one to talk
While I am one to fight
I can kick your tatooed flank
All day and night

I can hardly understand you
When you talk in rhyme all day
With all your witch doctor-ness
I wouldn’t talk to you anyway!

Zecora:
I will crack your egghead
And make an omlette with the yolk
Come over and play
With my poison joke

Just because you read
That doesn’t make you smart
I’m half way through beating you
.While you didn’t even start!

Twilight:
You think we would be scared
Since you live in everfree
But if Apple Bloom can go alone
I doubt it’s so scary

When I win, please don’t cry
I wouldn’t want to drown!
Just accept the shame and run away
Back to Zebra Town!

Zecora:
You say that you read books
But you only read the cover
You also say you fly
But you can only hover

Get ready for the truth
Because this is about to end
The Princess of Friendship
Only has five friends!

Zecora and Twilight run backstage, Twilight looking a bit shaken. ‘You did great, Zecora!’

‘As did you; But it is true/ On this eventful night; Only one will win the fight’

‘I wonder who will win!

Twilight and Zecora share a giggle before they are greeted by their friends.

‘Nice!’ says Rainbow Dash!

‘Though I have to admit, you could have done better on your part, Twilight!’ admits Rarity

‘I know. I just didn’t want to be too rude’

‘Well’ starts Applejack, ‘Guess all that’s left is you and me, Pinkie Pie!’

Pinkie realizes this and is overwhelmed, ‘Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh! Applejack! We’re next!’ exclaims Pinkie, shaking Applejack until she is dizzy.

‘Okay then, we better get going!’ says Applejack, pushing Pinkie, who can no longer breathe.

The other ponies wish them good luck and they position themselves behind the curtain, waiting for their que.

‘Alright, everypony. This is the last rap battle of the night! Let’s make this one to remember!’ announces Vinyl. The crowd responds with “Yeah!”s and “Aww!”s. ‘Okay...Round 4! Applejack VS Pinkie Pie! Battle...BEGIN!

Pinkie Pie:
Here’s a strange battle
Between an apple and a pie
Just say I’m gonna win this
You know you cannot lie!

I make people smile
You make people bored
With your non-existent personality
No one can help but snore

Applejack:
I work on my farm
Selling apples for my bits
All you do is frolic
‘Round the town like a kid

My pet is so loyal
Yours tries to kill you everyday
But you’re so oblivious
that you couldn’t tell anyway

Pinkie Pie:
Apples, apples, apples
That’s all you ever say!
Every second of every minute
Of every hour of everyday!

I get it! You like apples.
It’s even in your name
But if I hear it one more time
I’m sure I’ll go insane!

Applejack:
I drive you insane
With only one word!
What about you always yappin’
Every one you’ve ever heard!

You’re so all over the place
That I can’t keep track!
You’re here then you’re there
Then you’re gone then you’re back!

Pinkie Pie:
You may be my cousin
But I don’t really care
I’ll win this with a single
strand of my pink hair

I’m a super party pony
And I’ll run you to the ground
Go back to where you belong
In the background!

Applejack:
We both have farms
But at least mine makes sense!
Who would buy a rock?
I wouldn’t pay a pence!

The five of us grow up
But you stay the same
Oh, by the way
Your parties are lame!

‘WOW! That was so fun!’ eclaims Pinkie.

‘I agree. I’m glad I gave it a try.’ says Applejack.

Octavia catches up to everypony. ‘Great job! All of you did fantastic! Now, all of you should stand side by side behind the curtain for the final applause’.

The ponies position themselves as so and wait for their que.

‘That was the last battle of the night and ,wow, was it a good one! Let’s give a big round of applause to our competitors!’ says Vinyl.

The curtains rise, revealing the ponies to the audience, who responds with cheers and screams.

‘Now, this is where the audience is most important. You, the audience, get to decide who the winners are!’

Screams and cheers flood the stage. Vinyl waits for everypony to quiet down before continuing.

‘Under your seats are voting remotes. You will vote for who wins each battle and a special prize for which two had the best rap battle. We will take a small break for the voting. Ready...VOTE!’
