Young girl who had a love for ponies (G3.5) and is now even more in love with the current version!

Chapter One: After Ponyville reveals that the 'Cookie Zombies' was just a prank, Rainbow Dash's temper rises up and she gives them all a piece of her mind.
Chapter Two: Rainbow Dash discovers that she really did make Ponyville sick, and may have caused a disaster in Equestria.
Two alternate ending to the episode "28 Pranks Later" that I think would've made the episode waaay better!;)
(Both of the chapters are separate!)
BTW the "other" tag in this just goes for all of ponies that didn't get their own tag.

Chapters (2)

I just didn't like that RD's friends only barley apologized, and in a way that only encouraged her. This episode may have been Mare Do Well All Over Again or an improvement to it. I blame the Wonderbolts, they are a bad influence on RD.

This season sure has a lot of questionable episodes.

ty! i dont think it was the best thing. i added just a sweet moment with Derpy and Rainbow Dash cuz it felt like the right thing to do lol. im glad u liked it though (not many ppl rlly did). im thinking about adding another chapter but with a different theme. i want to write what would happen if the zombie cookie thing wasn't a prank and if it was real. i just feel like it so im gonna make a few changes

i agree with ya there pal. when they were in Twi's castle, they were encouraging her! and about the mare do well thing. i hated that episode sooo much! but the thing is, in mare do well, the main cast just wanted to teach Dash a lesson. they didnt want to harm her or make her feel insecure (even though they were saying things at their meet up at sugar cube corner, they said the mare do well was modest and such, so they were trying to make her change her ways). but in this episode, ponyville wanted rainbow to feel insecure and guilty. it was their intention! when they were exposing to plan to rainbow, most of them had looks of pride. now thats just wrong! and about the WB thing. i dont rlly think the WB were a bad influence. the wonderbolts r just rlly competitive. im sure with dash being on the team, she can bring more kindness within the group. u can tell already that the bolts do actually care about one another, but i do think they do have a possibility for this now that u say..... anyways i wanna add a seperate chapter that explains what would happen if the cookie zombie thing wasnt a prank.... WORKING ON THING TOMORROW OW THE DAY AFTER! :raritywink:

7509090 Sounds like a plan fam. Chu get a follow now :derpytongue2:

I do hope that this chapter was also part of the prank to make it even better, to get back at Rainbow, but once Rainbow figures out it's a prank boy will she be pissed, heck she might just up and move out of Ponyville and break up the Mane 6 Team just to get back at them.

7605664 You like that idea, if you want you can up and use it then, I would love to see this story keep going, there need to be more of these 28 pranks later fanfics, mainly ones where either Rainbow finds out about the prank before hand or when that part where Pinkie was acting so off that she follows Pinkie back to the castle and hears that Pinkie betrays the Prankster Code by telling the others of her prank she is setting up and how they go with the Zombie Prank then.

7605664 Oh, and do you think Twilight Sparkle would regretfully resign from her title as Princess of Friendship with a heavy heart because of this?

Wow. I don't think I've ever been less sympathetic to a non-villain protagonist than Rainbow Dash in this fic. Her inflated sense of self-entitlement just wafts off the screen. She's behaving like the classic thin-skinned bully: she can humiliate and grossly inconvenience anyone, anytime, anywhere and it's all in good fun but the slightest pushback prompts screams of outrage and self-pity. She put a skunk in a guy's house and fed another guy a brick. A brick. Someone who does that has got no right to complain when their payback involves being scared; she's lucky it's not a buck in the teeth.

7633355
...Uhh no... One friendship problem wouldn't make her resign! I don't even think you can resign! I have no idea why you just commented that comment...:facehoof:

7635326 Oh, maybe I was just overreacting and I am indeed sorry for that; I guess I shouldn't let little things get to me after all, huh?

It would be cool if there was a sequel to this.

Wish this actually happened in the episode

Loved this alternate ending. Fits in quite well.

Wow. I did not expect Derpy to be the one to snap at the rest of the citizens and stand up for Rainbow Dash (Then again she is my favorite character, so I can't complain :derpytongue2:).

Also that last part is just plain adorable.

7633886
again those 2 were the only ones that did tech any harm even then it was still more on main 6 fault for not stopping her hell they egg her on for saying it was lazy or not inuff effort plus there prank was much worst that rainbows being that is just life scaring tell me what worst a harmless prank that equal to tong color changing candies or making you think you killed every one you over loved

...can someone please explain why that (other than Blossomforth) we think the exact same ponies were friends when they were younger!?

Do they have zombie movies in mlp? If so RD probably should have known that.

I love this chapter, for myself I think it will be like Rainbow Dash already know they will prank her, and pretending to be scared then punched and kicked them. And when they told her it's not real she will be like, "ha! so you stop pretending now? Making pranks with all the ponies in Ponyville is so unfair!"

"Pinkie Pie! I told you to not tell them anything! You even promised to! TRAITOR!"

Then she goes to Everfree and never be seen, then ponies like to hear her cries in the middle of the night, or maybe she will be a villain? I would like that:trollestia:

To be honest, I also think "28 pranks later" would have gone like this, and yes, Derpy said that Rainbow played most of her pranks harmlessly and no pony didn't bother on taking the joke, the only pranks that Rainbow knew she messed up were on Cranky and Mr. Cake.

And now who's the bigger pony that came up to this ridiculous zombie fiasco now?

Someone was fed a brick and that wasn’t harmless and she was directly sabotaging g a cookie selling venture with her stunt

11488386
Again, the brick and the skunk was the only harmful pranks, about sabotaging a cookie selling venture, hmm, it wasn't harmful, but they had the harmful idea that it was okay that all a village made believe that you killed your own friends and family.

11597867
Not the only harmful pranks and one harmful prank was more then. Enough for dash to stop, she was inconsiderate to fluttershy’s feelings and maybe not physically harmful but financially harmful was her intended cookies prank as she could have ruined the whole operation with all the unhappy customers wanting refunds and compensation

11598245
Once more, the monster, brick and skunk were the only harmful ones, about the cookie sells, hmm, I didn't find it harmful, at all, if all Ponyville has the valuable to do the refunds, fine, but instead of doing that, they had the harmful idea to make think you that you killed your friends and family with something "poisonous" on them.

Besides, about Fluttershy, well, Dash thought that Fluttershy has matured enough to be scared like that. Even though she said that she was to easy to be scared, that doesn't mean that she ofended her intentionly.

11601214
Intentional or not she was inconsiderate to her or her friends’ feelings and I refuse to believe that if she was allowed to continue then she wouldn’t have done more harmful pranks

11601553
:facehoof: For once, Dash thought that she has matured a lot of her to be scared like that, about to believe about Dash doing more harmful pranks, well, the mane 5 had just easily avoided it by just talking about her pranks and get into a agreedment instead of over lazy saying that it was wrong and that's it, also avoid that harmful idea of making you thing that you killed your friends and family.

11603121
While they could have easily come up with a different big prank to get the message, I still say that what dash was doing was really harmful itself (though the zombie one would be more so)

11603445
About that diferent big prank, well, That's isn't gonna work as either for:

1. Selfish intentions.

2. Wanting giving a piece of their own chocolate in a harmful way will returns to you.

And 3. Trying to scared would possibly making someone die of a heart attack for the scare

About that Dash doing really harmful, well, yeah, she played a lot of pranks to all Ponyville, BUT MAKING HER THINK THAT SHE KILLED EVERYPONY WAS WAAAY PASTED THE LIMITS. Besides what happened if Dash acted in another way in the show, either can be that she:

1. Attacks them all with her fighting skills before it was revealed.

2. Call Celestia and Luna and see that they have non other but to bombard all over Ponyville.

3. Fly up to the sky and fly down to bombard Ponyville in her Sonic Rainboom explotion.

Or 4. (That will never in MLP and thank god that it never happened) Eats all of the joke cookies, getting her mouth rainbow muzzled, having a heart attack from the amount of cookies she ate, and fall to the ground and dies before it was revealed.


Didn't you think of that?

11622833
I never said that if you agreed or not, I said that if You think about what happened if Dash acted in another way to the 'cookie zombies'?

11622836
I know but any sympathy for her is limited considering her previous actions and despite this prank being overkill; she was overdue for a taste of her own medicine

11622845
But what if that 'taste of her own medicine' went wrong by the posibilities that I've mention. Besides, giving some a taste of their medicine isn't making someone think that the killed you, scare you until you probably die, nor either acting selfish to someone who already knows and that has been with you in good and bad moments, and even thought, think that you will 'give a taste of their medicine' when you could be the one paying the consecuences for something foolish you made!

11623082
Well sorry but I have nothing else to say, the particular prank was too far but by the same token dash deserved to suffer the consequences of her own harmful horrible pranks like she could have ruined the cookie selling activity, the denizens could have blamed the cmc and it would have ruined everything having to refund and compensate everything and scootaloo would have been justified in turning against her idol for this

11623143
:twilightangry2: How many times do I have to tell you, the only harmful pranks she played on were the monster, the skunk and the brick on the burger, the rest we're foolish and the cookie activity was only going to rainbowfy mouths, nothing else, and Scoots, well, I don't think she wouldn't go far on turning on her idol, it will make her completely out of character.

For Dash suffering the consecuences, well, it would just be her, but everypony else into thinking that it was a "great" idea for them to make her think that she killed all Ponyville.

And yes, citizens could have did the refunds, because of it did, fine, but instead of doing that, THEY HAD THE HARMFUL IDEA OF MAKING HER THINK THAT SHE KILLED EVERYPONY SO THAT SHE COULD DO ONE OF THE POSSIBILITIES THAT I'VE MENTIONED!!!! AND NOT ONLY BE DASH SUFFERING, BUT EVERYPONY ELSE IN GENERAL WOULD JOIN HER IN HER SUFFERING!!!!

11623444
Sorry but I get what you mean about how harmful the zombie prank is but one harmful prank from her is one too many and she wouldn’t have stopped, plus what if the prank material turned out to be defective and toxic

If they did do the refunds then they would have been justified in giving dash a permanent cold shoulder for the time being since she was showing she didn’t cRe about anyone else’s feelings

Sorry don’t want to argue but this is my point and I’m sticking to it

11623444
I admit that scootaloo permanently disavowing dash would be a bit much and the could shoulder from the town being permanent would be too much
