chapter 8 The Ticket Master

Author's Note:

K so I worked a lot on this chapter but some of it I might have done while really tired if its not very good as the last one let me know and I will edit it. Anyway enjoy

P.O.V PINKAMENA
My back hit the far wall of Canterlot’s workout room hard. Another crack and pony shaped indent appeared in the wall from impact. Before it sealed and repaired itself

“Hmm pretty good Pinkamena you lasted a total of five hours now and it’s not even time to raise the sun yet.” said Celestia with a grin on her face

I stood up from the floor wincing a bit “I could've sworn I had you this time” I said mumbling

Celestia chuckled “you have quite a bit more training before you can catch up to me in speed and strength”

I slowly stood up wincing a bit before going back into the ring.

“Well I think it’s time to practice martial arts now.” said Celestia as she took off her boxing gloves revealing her sportsman tape covered hands. I sighed before taking off my own gloves showing the same sportsman tape on my hands. We began circling each other looking to exploit a weakness in our opponent. Suddenly the door opened making us stop in our tracks. “Sister we hath come to give you our morning gree-” luna paused as she saw the state I was in. With all of our fighting I had a couple bruises and cuts. Celestia just had a few scratches Luna bristled in anger. Let me pause a moment and explain after the hospital visit Pinkie being the random mare she is simple clapped her hands and all of a sudden a huge party sprang up in my hospital room much to the nurses agitation. Practically

everypony from ponyville was there. With the ending of the party having me become Luna’s first friend. That was why here and now Luna looked a little livid. Then proceeded to shout so loud that I could swear that my eardrums shattered

“SISTER WHY ART THOU BEATING UPON MINE COMPANION WHAT COULDST SHE HAVE DONE TO INCUR THINE WRATH?! LOOK AT HER COVERED IN SCRATCHES AND BRUISES ART THOU NOT IN SOUND MIND?!” Celestia rubbed the inside of her ear

“Sister do calm down we are just practicing hand to hand combat and she is more than capable to hold her own. She taught me all I know on modern hand to hand combat.” said Celestia

Luna got a curious look “what is wrong with this?” asked Luna getting into a familiar fisticuffs stance both Celestia and I gave an implied facepalm

Not only is that old enough that my great great granny Pie would be a professional at it. But I am pretty sure a yellow belt would be able to dance around it and get several critical hits on you.” I said

Luna once again looked at us confused “ok let me start over” I said I put my boxing gloves back on.

“*throat clearing* one thousand years ago fisticufs may have been the go to hand to hand combat form but let us review. One there are no kicks no mix to the form it’s just punching your opponent. Which may have worked back then not so much now. Two continuous circling around your opponent taking too long to make a decision in combat. Now boxing may do somewhat of the same thing but the time doing this is reduced. Now the art of boxing comes in varied moves like the right hook the jab the uppercut much different than fisticuffs.” I said as I jabbed an air wave coming from my fists due to the speed.

“But what Celestia and I were doing this morning was martial arts or the art of kung fu with our own created style. Celestia is developing the Alicorn style while I am improving on every style. The difference between boxing and martial arts is not only fighting form but use of the fighting styles. With boxing you just slap on a pair of boxing gloves and train in boxing really hard then maybe go into some matches. However with martial arts there is a ranking system. Each and every rank signifies your mastery in martial arts.” I said Celestia and I taking out several colored belts Luna looking at them in interest. I pointed to the first of the belts laid out

“This is the beginning rank it is given to all new learners of martial arts the white signifies the beginning of your learning journey.” I then pointed to the next belt

“This yellow belt signifies a little experience it takes normal ponies about four to six months to qualify for this belt the teacher or sensei tests you on what you have learned so far and that happens for every belt. The next belt is the green belt you only get this belt by advancing and learning more combat forms. The average pony only gets this after a single year after getting a white belt. After that comes the brown belt the training for that belt even more difficult. It takes about two years after white belt. Then finally for the average pony their holy grail is the black belt this belt signifies complete mastery of the normal styles of martial arts. Normally ponies stop their training here however Celestia and I have taken it a step further.” I said

Luna gawked “There is more than this?” she asked surprised

“Indeed sister there are nine more degrees of black belt after this one” said Celestia getting out eight more belts each one with a colored stripe on it.

“The first belt shows your journey to the more advanced forms of martial arts think of it as your mastery white belt it has no stripe. It is simply known as second degree. The second is known as a third degree black or Sifu it takes one year of improvement to achieve. It has one yellow stripe on it. The third shows that you are a master instructor at this point you are able to teach white and yellow belts. The only pony I know right now that teaches white and yellow belts is a Canterlot local known as Minuette. A green stripe is around this belt. The fourth and fifth shows you as masters of martial arts the first this brown one here shows you can teach brown and black belts. The one with a blue stripe on it shows you can teach any of the martial arts students white through black it doesn’t matter. The next the sixth and seventh shows you as senior masters one belt has one red stripe the other has two showing the level of experience. The Eighth belt shows you are a first degree master as shown by these three red stripes. This shows the third to last total mastery of martial arts.” said Celestia

“But I don’t get it you said there were nine where’s that belt?” asked Luna Celestia and I looked at each other smiled and stood allowing luna to see our waists. She looked in awe at the solid red belt

“This shows our rank of grand master we trained hard and without pause to gain this rank. The only other rank there is is known as supreme master and it only belongs to one pony Balanced yang his belt is the color of gold he taught Pinkamena who in turn taught me. Martial arts is not just a combat form it is an art a way of life and I was happy to learn it. Now that that’s out of the way do you want to see one of our spars?” asked Celestia Luna nodding enthusiastically and me taking off my boxing gloves

Both Celestia and I stood opposite each other getting into our stances with a burst of speed we charged towards each other Celestia with a punch and me with roundhouse kick. a shockwave reverberated throughout the room causing cracks to appear on the ceiling. To Luna it appeared as if we had teleported to each other in a flash we disappeared continuous shockwaves appeared in the room shaking the room and probably a few more rooms unfortunately due to our training earlier in the morning we didn’t have that much steam. We reappeared and our fists were found in our opponents cheeks. Knocking us into opposite walls both of us panting. “Maybe we should do a more thorough demonstration when we have more energy.” I said

“Agreed my stomach has been aching for some breakfast let’s go get some.” said Celestia


At the table we had our breakfast in front of us Celestia and Luna having the basic breakfast and me having a double sunny egg sandwich. Celestia sipped her tea before setting it down with a clack

“So Pinkamena do you have any plans for a few months from now?” asked Celestia

I narrowed my eyes in suspicion “you know I don’t really do well planning for future events Celestia and I don’t like that humored shine in your eyes.” I said

“Well it’s coming to that time of the year again so here.” she said throwing something at me like a shuriken I caught it took one look and groaned in agitation. That familiar golden gleam the familiar red text that said three ominous words. Grand...Galloping….Gala faust dang it how I hated that event with a fiery passion the soft music, the stuffy nobles, the food so small and made out of such bland ingredients that a mouse would rather starve to death than put one bit of that nasty food in their mouths.

“Faust dang it Celestia you know I hate these events I have to wear that same stupid dress every time you organize these.” I said

“I offered you a new dress made by our seamstress.” said Celestia

I facepalmed “she made it worse never In my life had I seen so many frills.” I said

“Please I just need a friend by my side so I can endure greeting all of the guests.” said Celestia

I slumped at that on the one hand I absolutely hated this event. But on the other I had to support Celestia as a friend my Loyalty as a friend demanded it.

“Fine I’ll come but at the first chance at slow down I am escaping and going to donut joe’s it will be my cheat day that day after all.” I said

“Excellent it will be so great having you there!” exclaimed Celestia suddenly grabbing me in a titanic hug. What was with some ponies and crushing hugs wait why is the room spinning

“SISTER RELEASE DEAR PINKAMINA SHE IST TURNING BLUE!” yelled Luna

Celestia looked down and it was true I was turning blue from lack of oxygen

“Oops sorry I’m a little excited with you there hopefully it won’t be so dull.” said Celestia

Celestia suddenly put on a spine chilling face

I looked over at Luna a shiver going up my spine

“Um Luna why does Celestia look like that?”

Luna looked bothered as well “most likely she ist thinking about thine punishment for the cake prank. Ye might want to keep thy guard up around the time of said Grand Galloping Galla.” said Luna

Soon Celestia took on her motherly persona again and breakfast proceeded as normal.
Soon enough it was time for me to depart back to ponyville

“Fare thee well friend Pinkamena may thy travels be safe and swift.” said Luna

“Yeah see you later Luna I’ll be sure to stop by again soon.” I said as I turned to Celestia

“You’d better be prepared for next time Celestia cause I will come back stronger and faster I’ll beat you someday.” I said Celestia and me giving each other challenging looks

PONYVILLE
The train came to a grinding halt the whooshing steam from the pistons signifying the train coming to a complete stop.

I stepped off of the train and headed towards home to rest from this morning’s challenge. I thought about this morning’s match since the last sparring session I tried to increase my speed and stamina.

I thought I had the advantage this time but Celestia obviously had the advantage not me. She was faster and had more stamina.

But that was ok that just meant I had to train harder cause after all our sensei was not going to give the title of supreme master to just anypony.

Sure that was several years away but sharpening our skills was important. Doubtless Celestia was likely to take the title of supreme master. But I was going to give her a fight that would shake the very heavens itself.

Soon I turned the corner my dojo in the distance. A lot of ponies stood in front for… it occured to me then today was the opening ceremony. I came up with the dojo once I had earned my grand master belt. I thought why should I be the only one to know the mastery and skill of Kung Fu I could teach people the same skills I had. Spread the art that was Kung Fu to ponies every where.

It was a pain to bet the bits for it in the first place it took a combination of waitressing and odd jobs around Ponyville. The waitressing the most unpleasant most of my days spent with both tiring nights and the biggest pervs. They would give me a slap and there would be one more hole in the diner I was working in that I had to repair.

Their was one that kept coming back no matter how many times I had put him through the wall.
His name was FoeHammer builder of homes and apparent wooer of mares. It was as if every time I put him through that poor abused wall it boosted his confidence. When the time came and I had enough bits. I handed in my resignation and I walked up to the perv in question. I had punched him so hard that he crashed through the wall and several everfree trees. He was drinking his meals through a straw for the next four months. Not professional considering my martial arts mastery but my patience had snapped then. I then got into contact with some construction ponies in February who told me that the time it would take to complete my dojo would take about four months. But I didn’t really blame them I was going the whole nine yards with this hand to hand, training with a staff, a Tai Chi Jian Dao (straight sword) and many other weapons so I needed a huge training area as well as an armory I also needed hot springs some guest rooms for the really dedicated, a meditative garden and a private room for testing students and that was for my martial arts dojo. The funds that I earned from here was going to go towards my Boxing gym for those who wanted to train for boxing instead.

A pony shaped cloud of dust was all that was left behind as I ran towards my house. Have to say some physics defying traits can be useful sometimes. I got home changed into my grand master gi and ran back to the dojo. Mayor Mare was nervously trying to calm the masses who were getting impatient

“Now now everypony I’m sure she will come any minute please be calm.” said Mayor Mare

“We’ve been waiting all morning you said that all morning where is she?!” yelled a brown pony

“I promise you she wouldn’t miss this in fac-” started Mayor Mare

“I’m here sorry I’m late I’ve been training with Celestia this morning.” I said

This brought a few murmurs amongst the crowd Princess Celestia knew Martial Arts to? This brought the crowd some excitement if Princess Celestia knew Martial Arts then it must have been an impressive thing to learn.

“Anyway now that The Mare Juggernaut is here then it is with great pride that we open Ponyville’s very first Martial arts dojo.” said Mayor Mare while I cut the ribbon. Everypony cheered with enthusiasm.

It was later that found me in front of several beginners in white training gi’s with white belts around their waists. me in my grand master gi on the wall was a picture of the supreme master.I was pacing studying all of them with my judgemental eye all of them had potential I just had to bring that out. I stopped pacing as I faced the new students. To my surprise I saw Rainbow Dash and her sister Solar Dash. They stood in front of everypony else eager to learn my teachings of Kung Fu.

“You all have come here to learn Kung Fu for one reason or another. For some they have come to learn Martial arts to gain fame and fortune from the various tournaments around equestria. For others they came to learn from me simply because I am famous. More have come more to make themselves more awesome and able to kick more tail than they can now. For the rest at least I’m assuming you have come to learn Kung Fu for self defense. For those who came to learn what I teach for defense congratulations you have come for the right reasons for the other three that is not what Kung Fu heck all forms of Martial Arts is for. It is mainly for the self defense of yourself and all your friends and family from those who would wish to do you harm.
Sure I may like a challenge every once in awhile. But that is against foes who would threaten those I love and the place I have called home. If those are the only reasons why you have come and you are not willing to change those reasons please leave now.” I said

A few ponies left surprisingly Rainbow stayed and so did her sister.

“Alright for those who understood and stayed welcome to this class. Work diligently and with determination and in as soon as a year you will be tested to advance to yellow belt.” I said

“Alright if there are no questions let us begin.” I said going into the first stance for the basics.




Class had ended around two with people slowly walking away. The soreness in their limbs all too evident. Did I scoff and say noobie? No I did not it/s understandable you can’t expect to be excellent your first day heck the first month was not easy. I remember when I had found said supreme master of Kung fu. He was a forest green stallion with a sun yellow mane and tail he was also from Earth chinese descent how he had gotten here I don’t know nor will he speak of the subject and I respect his decision. I had no idea what was happening on earth but the big concern I had was that continuous terror was being inflicted as more and more people died due to terrorism more and more souls were being shifted off to other worlds. Anyway he had studied for many years to reach the mastery he did. When he saw one of my boxing matches he told me he saw potential in me and for the next few years I had studied under him extensively. My workouts were quite extreme he would put ludicrously heavy weights on me and have me practice balance on tall bamboo stalks. Had me dodge dragons fire from one of his dragon friends. Bend my body in different ways through thorn forests. Eventually I earned my mastery.
Course that didn’t really change my opinion of him which was that he could be quite the sadist with his training methods.

I had just passed AJ’s farm when I heard voices approach. Twilight and AppleJack were approaching the entrance of sweet apple acres baskets strone on their shoulders. I caught the conversation

“Thanks for helpin with the harvest Twilight. I bet big macintosh I could get all of these Golden Delicious apples in the barn by lunchtime. If I win, he’s gonna walk down sturrup street in one of grannies girdles.” said AppleJack laughing

“No problem at all AppleJack. I’m glad the goal is lunch time all this work is making me hungry.” said twilight rubbing her stomach
I noticed that spike was digging through the apples while Twilight was walking each one he found no good he threw on the ground.

“Geez what a waste” I thought Twilight noticed me and walked on over

“Hey Pinkamena what brings you here?” asked Twilight

“Just passing by just finished my first teaching of Kung Fu” I said

Suddenly spikes cheeks puffed up and he burped out an envelope in a burst of green fire

“It’s a letter from Princess Celestia” said Twilight

Spike cleared his throat “here ye here ye her grand royal highness Princess Celestia of Equestria. Is pleased to announce the Grand Galloping Gala is to be held in the magnificent city of Canterlot. Yada yada yada cordially extends an invitation to Twilight Sparkle plus one guest.” said Spike

Both Twilight and AppleJack squealed in excitement. “The Grand Galloping Gala!” they both exclaimed I facepalmed “why are they so excited about a party full of stuffy nobles?” I thought
I missed a bit of their conversation I snapped back into it when I heard AJ say

“ Nice? It's a heap good more than just nice. I'd love to go. Land sakes, if I had an apple stand set up, ponies would be chowin' our tasty vittles 'til the cows came home. Do you have any idea how much business I could drum up for Sweet Apple Acres? Why, with all that money, we could do a heap of fixin' up 'round here. We could replace that saggy old roof, and Big Macintosh could replace that saggy old plow, and Granny Smith could replace that saggy old hip. Why I’d give my left hind leg to go to that gala.” said AppleJack

“Oh in that case would you…” Twilight started to say

“Whoa! [crash] Ugh. Are we talking about the Grand Galloping Gala?” asked Rainbow Dash

I cleared my throat in agitation making Rainbow flinch and look at me “oh he he hi teach what brings you here?” she asked making me narrow my eyes further

“Ah ha I mean sensei I know I’m not supposed to be lazing about but I already finished cloudbusting even with the weights I have on.” said rainbow

I got an evil grin on my face

“Oh really then you don’t mind if I do this?” I asked as I reached up towards her weights and pressed on the control matrix. The effect was instant where as before she was flying with fifty pounds it instantly increased to to sixty-five. Dropping her on the ground.

“Hey what gives I can hardly move!” said Rainbow

“Well you said this weight was easy and I want all of my pupils to work for their results. Don’t think I didn’t see you faking as if this weight was going to be your limit. That was the worst fake I have ever seen if you were boxing you would be TKO before you could even blink. Now I expect you to use this weight to get stronger you have to be to even handle level one of this training.” I said

Rainbow folded her arms in agitation

“Fine”she huffed

“Anyway I happened to hear you got an extra ticket?”asked Rainbow

“Yah but…” Twilight started to say

“YES! This is so awesome. The Wonderbolts perform at the Grand Galloping Gala every year. I can see it now. Everyone would be watching the sky. Their eyes riveted on the Wonderbolts, but then in would fly Rainbow Dash! I would draw their attention with my Super Speed Strut.

Then, I would mesmerize 'em with my Fantastic Filly Flash. And for my grand finale, the Buccaneer Blaze! The ponies would go wild!

The Wonderbolts would insist that my signature moves be incorporated into their routine, and then welcome me as their newest member.
Don't you see, Twilight? This could be my one chance to show 'em my stuff. You gotta take me!” said rainbow

I felt myself facepalm “oh boy I know where this is going.” I said
“Hold on just one pony pickin' minute here.I asked for that ticket first.” said AppleJack glarring daggers at Rainbow Dash

“So? That doesn't mean you own it.” said Rainbow matching AppleJacks glare

“Oh, yeah? Well I challenge you to an arm-wrestle. Winner gets the ticket.” said AppleJack running over to a box. She set up her arm on the right side of the box. Rainbow followed and set up on the left. Groans sounded as both struggled to beat the other.

“Girls, these are my tickets, I'll decide who gets it, thank you very much. Whoever has the best reason to go should get the ticket, don't you think?” said Twilight

“And that put the last nail in the coffin good luck with the minefield you just made Twilight.” I said walking away

Next on my agenda for today was hanging out with my sister Pinkie we had to use scheduled days now both of us just super busy. Pinkie with the bakery and planned parties and me with my training and now teaching. It wasn’t the worst thing in the world but sometimes I just wish we could have it like when we were kids when we didn’t need schedules. I had just passed the market district when I heard a commotion in the market square. Curious I turned the corner and groaned in agitation.
Not only was Rainbow Dash and AppleJack there but so was Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie.

I looked to the side and saw AppleCider,SolarDash, and Singularity standing there with disapproving looks.

I walked over to them wanting to find out just what was going on.
“Hey guys let me guess another clash about who should get Twilight’s extra ticket.” I said
Everypony just grunted in annoyed acknowledgement.

“Me and Rainbow were due for this mornings training and cloudbusting sensei. She just rushed in babbled like an over excited filly and flew right out the door.. Said Solar folding her arms in anger

“An AppleJack an ah were supposed to check and harvest the north and west fields but she’s jus so obsessed with this gala nonsense.” said AppleCider tapping her hoof impatiently

I looked over at Sigularity who was shaking her head in disbelief “I think my sister is is for a world of disappointment. The only reason she wants to go to that gala in the first place is to meet and marry prince BlueBlood. She has another thing coming if she thinks for a minute that a pony like BlueBlood would marry anyone other than a noble. Can’t really say anything about poor fluttershy not only would she be delighted to see the Canterlotian animals but her sister’s not here to help her.” said Singularity
I looked over at Singularity in confusion “fluttershy has a sister?” I asked

“Why yes she is a twin like us but she works as a world class singer her name is Brazila.” said Singularity

My mouth fell open I knew Brazila she was responsible for the most epic and inspiring music in Equestria while Sapphire Shores and Countess Coloratura were the queens of pop Brazila was queen of practically everything else she did all kinds of genres of music and she did it well. No more than well she did it brilliantly. You wouldn’t catch me working out without some of her music on my pmp (pony music player) thinking of her posters I could see the resemblance I don’t know why I didn’t see it till now she had the same creme yellow coat but her mane was bright red. And had it styled as if she had dragon horns. She wore special bands on her mane to look like rings. She always wore a red with blue striped skirt with a black sleeveless tee-shirt. They called her the dragon of music. I kinda geeked out a little when this information came to me. Whereas others tended to geek out at me I kinda geeked out about Brazila.

“QUIET!” yelled Twilight

“And then I said, "Oatmeal, are you craz--" oh.” said Pinkie

“Girls, there's no use in arguing.” said Twilight

“But Twilight-” started Rarity

“Eh! This is my decision, and I'm gonna make it on my own, and I certainly can't think straight with all this noise... [stomach rumbles] not to mention hunger. Now go on, shoo.” said Twilight
Everypony walked away irritated

“Ugh ah can tell ah’m gonna be hearin about this later an it’s gonna be up ta me to reach the quota for the sour greens.” said AppleCider walking away with a huff

“Ugh my sister love her but she can be such a scatterbrain. Guess I have to get my section of sky clear as well as hers.” said Solar half heartedly flapping away

“And I might as well get home and continue to work on my next equestrian innovation.” said Singularity.

I dragged my hands down my face this was ridiculous it was just a stupid gala honestly it wasn’t really worth all this trouble.



I slammed the fridge door shut looks like it was time to get a new part. My fridge was on the fritz recently if I wanted my food to last past the next few days I needed to replace that part. I stepped out of my home and headed towards Singularity’s workshop if anyone knew what part I needed it would be her. As I was walking towards singularities workshop I noticed clouds beginning to gather I smiled as I walked if it rained now I could get Thoroughly soaked which would be awesome I loved rain. I noticed to the left of me Twilight was sitting at an outdoor table. The rain started coming down soaking me and my clothing I absolutely loved it.

I suddenly stopped however as I saw a shaft of untouched land and Twilight was right in the middle of it she looked angry about something. Shouting up in the air at what looked like Rainbow- it clicked to me then Rainbow was kissing up to Twilight to try and win the extra ticket
I’m gonna have to pound that out of her later cause no student of mine was going to use dishonorable tactics like this. Soon I saw Rainbow zip up the cloud. The physics of this world still threw me a bit off. Twilight probably should have waited till she was inside. For the rain came down and quickly drenched her and her sandwich poor thing. I continued on my way soon coming to carousel boutique/Singularities Electronics. I was about to knock on the door of the workshop when I was forcibly yanked inside.

“Oh thank goodness you are here my sister is driving me CRAZY! All she has been talking about for the last three hours is that Celestia forsaken ticket! I am concerned because she literally looked like this.” said Singularity making a creepy face


“He will be mine mine all mine all I need is that ticket and the perfect date. Then we’ll marry and I will be a princess. Then close with crazy laughter SHE HAS LOST HER MIND!” yelled Singularity
Shaking me vigorously

“Singularity I came here for a reason.”I said smoothing my tee-shirt

Ah right ah ha ha ha what was that reason?” asked singularity

Well my fridge won’t keep things cold anymore. I’m losing my peanut butter ice cream so I need that fixed.” I said

“Hmm sounds like a bad compressor luckily for you I happen to have the part you are looking for. Its relatively easy to install just follow these instructions.I’ll give it free this time but next time it will cost you a little” said singularity giving me a piece of paper

“ thanks Singularity I’ll see you later.” I said as I stepped out the door. The rain was still going strong and an irritated Twilight just stepped past me headed towards home.

I saw the rain had stopped the beautiful sun coming out. The wildlife were coming out from their homes. Dew glistened from the treetops, water puddles littered the ground. The birds were chirping… snapping out of my thoughts I found myself at home. Unlocking the door and stepping inside I headed towards the fridge.



It had been about a few hours since I began work on my fridge. Yeah Singularity simple, simple my plot I had to take out all of my food unscrew the back. In which I had to go across town again just to borrow a screwdriver. Get back, realize that the screws were phillips head, go across town again cursing up a storm. Get the right screwdriver get back unscrew the cage holding said part. Remove bad part put new part in, screw both cage and back on. Then put the salvageable food back in. NOT SIMPLE SINGULARITY!

Anyway aside from the frustration I felt doing that. it was time to return my first daring do book so towards the library I went. I heard a disturbance while passing the market district. Poor Twilight was running away from a mob of ponies!

She tried weaving between buildings that didn’t work.she tried casting illusion spells that didn’t work either. All the while I was hearing things like let me weed your garden and let me do your nails and need help with your taxes? I was seeing red at that moment there was only one pony who would let slip about the ticket

“PINKIE PIE YOU ARE IN SO MUCH TROUBLE!” I yelled



Meanwhile back at Twilight’s house the girls were cleaning up Twilight’s house as an apology they knew that they had pushed twilight too hard about the ticket. The results of which was present when they each saw Twilight’s frazzled hair. Pinkie however felt the most guilty seeing as her mouth got most of the town to chase the poor unicorn around. Pinkie was just putting a book in place on the shelf, when she began to feel a combo she haddn’t felt in a long time. Shiver spine sweaty palms wobbly knees. Pinkamena knew of her mistake and when Pinkamena found her she was doomed.

“Oh no no no no no no no” said Pinkie as her coat went pure white

“Pinkie what’s the matter dear?” asked Rarity in concern

“She knows oh she knows I am sooo dead.” said Pinkie

“Pinkie what on earth are ya talkin about.” asked AppleJack

“My sister Pinkamena she knows and she’s coming to bring the hammer down.” said Pinkie

Rainbow Dash then paled as well “oh ponyfeathers she could have seen me trying to get the ticket as well.” said Rainbow

“Oh don’t worry guys I’m sure if she see’s you apologizing to Twilight then her punishment might not be so bad.” said Fluttershy

Suddenly a flash of light appeared in the middle of the room a slightly charred Twilight and Spike in the middle of a burned circle

“Ugh... Warn me next time you're gonna do that.” groaned Spike

“I didn't even know it was gonna happen. Now quick, lock the doors.” said Twilight
Both Spike and Twilight zipped around the house locking doors and windows. Eventually they reached the middle again with the lights shut off. AppleJack reached over and flicked the switch back on. Twilight whipped around in fear and despair as she saw her friends who caused the issue in the first place.

“Yaaaargh! I can't decide, I just can't decide. It's important to all of you and I just can't stand to disappoint any of you, and giving me gifts and doing me favors won't make any difference, because you're all my friends and I wanna make you all happy and I can't, I just can't!” yelled Twilight falling to her knees

AppleJack approached Twilight a guilty frown adorning her face

“Twilight, sugar, I didn't mean to put so much pressure on you, and if it helps, I don't want the ticket anymore. You can give it to somepony else. I won't feel bad, I promise.” said AppleJack

“MMHMM” said the rest in agreeance.

Twilight ended up sending the tickets back. With the mindset that if all of her friends couldn’t go she wouldn’t go either.

But to her surprise she got a response letter that held tickets for all of her friends.

Rainbow was about to follow her friends to dinner when she remembered one of the first lessons that her sensei taught which was ignore worldly wants concentrate on needs.

“Rainbow what’s wrong?” asked Twilight

“I guess I forgot about sensei’s lesson from today it was the most basic of basics it goes. ‘ignore worldly wants concentrate on needs’ it was probably one of the most basic lessons.” said Rainbow

“Oh seems important.” said Twilight

“Yeah I guess I’d better apologize to my sensei as soon as--- uh Twi why are you looking behind me like that?” asked rainbow

Pinkie looked behind her and went white with fear.

“Sensei’s right behind me isn’t she.” said Rainbow

Rainbow and everypony else looked and the reaction was instant

AppleJack took off her hat and gripped it for dear life.

Rarity and Rainbow embraced each other hoping that the other wouldn’t fade

And poor poor Fluttershy fainted

Pinkamena had somehow found them and she was livid.


“Pinkie Rainbow you are in for quite the punishment. Believe me when I am done any thought of a repeat of what I saw today will never be happening.” growled Pinkamena
