Sonic and Equestria Girls: Friendship Games

by SonicAKG

The mysterious visitor and the hype for the Games.

As Sunset Shimmer was running back to school in the afternoon after receiving an 'urgent' text message from Rainbow Dash, Sonic decided to take a little run of his own. Normally he liked to do it better in the morning, but he slept in for his morning one and decided to make it up now. Sonic was a blue streak throughout Canterlot as he made a strong gust of wind as he ran across the road, blowing away leaves and papers. Sonic dashed down towards a hill and he then turned right.

"(Ah, this is it! Taking a run in the afternoon is so much better than the morning, especially when I'm so pumped for it!)" Sonic thought as he made his way around the city. Sonic past by many cars, too fast for them to even notice.

As Sonic continue to run, he saw that coming up ahead was Canterlot High. Sonic saw that as he closed in, there was a city bus parked in front of the entrance. As Sonic noticed the bus, he didn't notice that running in his direction was a grey hooded-figure as fast as they could. Behind them was Sunset, who called out to them as she pursued them.

"Stop!" Sonic heard Sunset say as he ran in front of the school.

After hearing this, Sonic turned and he saw the hooded person coming right towards him. Sonic's eyes widened and the figure gasped. Before the two of them collided, Sonic came to a stop, making a large dust cloud spray in front of the figure. The mysterious person coughed as they wiped away the cloud and when it was clear, they found themselves face to face with Sonic.

"Hey, are you ok? Hope I didn't startle you." Sonic asked them as he offered them his hand.

The person stood frozen for a second, not sure how to react before instead of responding, they dashed past Sonic for dear life into the city bus they had arrived on. The bus then drove off, leaving Sonic puzzled as he watched it leave the school. Sonic scratched his head.

"Was it something I said?" Sonic said.

Sunset then came next to Sonic suddenly. She turned left and right quickly as if she was searching for someone.

"Sonic! Did you see someone come by here?" She asked desperately.

"Yeah. It looked like a girl in a hood. She got on that bus which just drove off." Sonic explained as he pointed down the road to the driving bus. Sunset gasped as she realized that the mystery person was now gone and she turned back to Sonic.

"What?! Sonic, why didn't you stop them?!" She said.

"Was I supposed to?" Sonic said confused.

"She was around the portal. The one I came from on the statue." Sunset explained.

"Oh." Sonic said. He and Sunset then turned as they observed the bus drive off into the distance.

As the bus landed in front of Crystal Prep HighSchool, the figure's hood was now off, revealing her purple hair with pink stripes in a bun. The figure, the human worlds Twilight Sparkle made her way through the school as she passed by the hallway into her lab. Twilight turned on the lights and on her wall, which was a photo of CHS covered by many red lines with yellow dots and other paper clippings, she posted a piece of paper. As she did, Twilight remembered Sonic.

"Hey, you ok?"

Twilight recalled their encounter and the fact that he was there at that exact moment. The way he arrived indicated a familiarity with the school. She placed her hand on her chin.

"(Him again....I was right! He is connected to Canterlot High!)" She thought.

The next day, back at CHS, the Rainbooms met up with Sonic, Tails, Manic, Silver and Knuckles in the upper part of the library during the day, packed with students carrying around with their own things. As Pinkie Pie and AppleJack read books with Rarity searching for one and Fluttershy petting Angel bunny on the ground, Sunset walked back and forth. Sonic sat down and observed her alongside Tails. Knuckles sat down next to AJ while Manic sat with Fluttershy, leaving Silver leaning against the book shelves.

"And that girl left the moment she realized that I noticed what she was up to. I'm worried. The fact that she was around the portal means she realizes something special about it." Sunset was saying.

"How? I mean, weird stuff only happens around this school and it didn't look like she was from here." Sonic pointed out.

"Maybe she's from Equestria." Fluttershy suggested.

"No, I don't think so. She came from a bus for starters and second, I'm sure Princess Twilight would have informed me if anything had gotten through the portal." Sunset said.

"That's good to hear. With all the crazy stuff that's been goin' on, we don't need anymore threats from another dimension." AppleJack added as she looked up from her book and she turned to Knuckles with a slight smile. Knuckles just did a slight laugh.

"It's not that bad. It's good practice. " Knuckles said as he leaned back in his chair.

"Well, I wish it could tone a bit. Battling the forces of evil is terrible for my outfits!" Rarity complained, making Silver sigh.

"Still, we can't just ignore this person." Sunset said.

"You're right. I wonder who she was?" Tails asked.

"I have the answer to that!" Rainbow Dash suddenly said as she emerged from behind the book shelf, making everyone turn to her.

"Can I guess? Can I? Can I? Can I? CAN I?!" Pinkie said excitedly as she jumped up and down before Manic put his hand on her shoulder, calming her down.

"You guys said the bus came from downtown in the city and was headed back there, right? Due to that, I can safely say the bus came from-" Rainbow Dash said before she was joined by the Rainbooms.

"Crystal Prep." They all said in union with a displeased tone.

Hearing Crystal Prep made Sonic look to Manic and Silver. They each formed nervous looks as their eyes darted back and forth. They hadn't told the others about their incident where they had to infiltrate the school to get a missing emerald and how they had shown off their powers. Sonic was hoping the students of Crystal Prep hadn't realized that they had come from Canterlot High. With the mystery girl now snooping around, that idea was now possible. Sonic rubbed the back of his head and he cleared his throat loudly to catch everyones attention. All eyes were on him now.

"What's up Sonic?" Tails asked.

"Erm, uh, the thing is....a while back, Shadow, Silver, Manic and I might have lost a Chaos Emerald at Crystal Prep...and...we maybe infiltrated it to get the emerald back..... after that....we might have showed them our powers.." Sonic explained uneasily.

This news made the Rainbooms, Knuckles and Tails look at him, Manic and Silver with shocked looks. Manic tried to whistle while Silver looked at the floor. Sonic continued to rub his head.

"You did what?!" Sunset yelled.

"And you didn't bring this up before because?" Rarity scolded as she looked at Silver with disapproval. He tried to avoid eye contact.

"It was a while back and we forgot about it. Besides, we didn't tell them that we're from CHS. I'm sure they didn't put two and two together." Manic said to try and save face.

"...But with this mystery girl...maybe they just did..." Sonic added on. "It can't just be a coincidence. Sorry."

"That would explain why the girl came here. With the Friendship Games tomorrow, they probably came for payback. She was probably trying to wreck the statue or something." Rainbow Dash guessed.

"Wait up, you think they would something like that?" Sunset said, finding the whole idea a little absurd.

"Of course they would. Crystal Prep's ShadowBolts are our number one rivals." AppleJack explained.

"I wouldn't put it past them." Rarity agreed.

"We've lost to them every year and each time, they remind us!" Rainbow Dash bitterly said as she put her fist in her hand.

"Really? If that's the case, then honestly, this mystery girl doesn't really concern me anymore. This seems so petty." Sunset stated, making her the receiving end of surprised looks from everyone except Silver.

"Petty? The Friendship Games aren't petty! Our school reputations at stake!" Rainbow Dash reminded her.

"If that's the only thing at stake, then I'm with Sunset. I mean, it's not that big of a deal." Silver responded as he folded his arms.

"To you maybe. It matters to the whole school." Fluttershy told him as she approached him with Angel.

"You're right. I shouldn't trivialize this for you guys. It is important." Sunset apologized.

"They're still working on the field. It's been taking forever." Rarity brought up.

"And aren't these games supposed to be about friendship? I don't really see that here." Sunset noticed.

"Well, when someone's better than you at everythin', being friends with 'em is kinda hard." AppleJack replied.

"I think I can sympathize with Crystal Prep. That explains why Shadow doesn't like me." Manic suggested, making Silver sigh once more as he rolled his eyes.

"Not even close." Silver told him.

"Well this year, CHS is going to win! You can be sure of that! Just wait for later today!" Rainbow Dash declared.

"I'm with Dash! I don't know about you guys, but I'm pumped for these games! I've been counting down each day for the entire year! I can't wait to see the field when it's done!" Sonic excitedly said as he rubbed his hands together.

"Hold on, Sonic. Don't mean to ruin your fun, but should you even take part? Seeing as Crystal Prep might recognize you?" Knuckles cautioned.

"Knuckles is right. Sonic, are you sure that's a good idea?"Sunset questioned.

Sonic turned to them as if they were insane. He couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Are you kidding me?! There's no way I'm sitting out of these games! I'll just maybe wear a disguise or something! You can bet on it, nothing's stopping me from taking part! Nothing!" Sonic announced as he raised his fist in the air.

Later, during the day, the CHS student body was gathered in the school gym. The students filled up the bleachers, but they all looked like they'd rather be somewhere else. They looked sleepy with drooped eyelids, unhappy facial expressions and some students were even snoring slightly. They didn't need to be reminded that they were going to lose the Friendship Games...again. Sonic and the others sat at the top. Sonic stood out among the others as he had a smile on his face. Pinkie suddenly perked up and she began to look around quickly.

"Wait a minute, where's Shadow?!" She cried as she came up in Silver's face. He gently moved her away.

"Shadow's made it pretty clear that he doesn't want anything to do with these games. He's not much of a school spirit guy." Manic explained, making Pinkie pout as she crossed her arms.

Principal Celestia came up on the stage and she tapped the microphone to gather the students attention. They all turned to her.

"Hello everyone. I've called this meeting to discuss about tomorrow's Friendship Games!" She said enthusiastically. The students reacted the opposite of her as they did half-hearted cheers and barely raised their hands up. Principal Celestia frowned slightly but continued on.

"Anyway, today, I'll be explaining what happens at the games." She started.

"What's the point? We already know that we're gonna lose." Flash Sentry called out, his voice full of disappointment.

"Hey, chin up. Things'll be different. Trust me." Sonic said as he playfully elbowed him, making Flash look at him, wondering how he could be so happy.

"That kind of attitude is why Rainbow Dash has decided to host a little pep rally!" Principal Celestia said as she introduced Rainbow, who walked up next to her. She handed her the microphone and Rainbow Dash faced the crowd.

"Listen up! I know a lot of you aren't feeling very motivated since Crystal Prep's beaten us at everything each year! But, this year hasn't been like the others, has it? Crystal Prep Students may be athletic, smart and talented, but there's one thing they're not! WonderColts!" Rainbow Dash yelled as the CHS marching band behind her began to play

"We've fought off magic more than once and come out on top" ....

As Rainbow Dash continued on with her pep rally, reminding students of what they had experienced in the past year, the mood of the student body was beginning to change. Students were beginning to stomp their feet to the sound of the music and clap their hands as well. Students began to chant out with Rainbow Dash. They were becoming more pumped as they raised their fist up and formed smiles and determined looks of victory. Rainbow Dash began to pass out WonderColt ears and tails and the students took them up and began to wear them, their school spirit rising. As she and band marched through, the entire gym was completely different from before. CHS was now beginning to think they had a chance to win. Sonic looked around and his body filled with excitement. His face broke out into a wide smile. Seeing everyone as eager for the games as he was amazing! He couldn't contain how happy he was!

Na, na, na-na-na-na
Wondercolts united together
Na, na, na-na-na-na
Wondercolts united forever

On the rooftop of the school, Shadow stood there with his arms crossed as he looked out into the city. Shadow heard the music coming from the gym and he looked down.

"Hmph, Ridiculous." He scoffed.

Back in the gym as Rainbow Dash's pep rally was coming to end, she came back on stage and her body began to glow a bright blue colour as she rose up, making Sunset and the others notice as she grew wings and shone brightly in a blue aura. She had ponied up and all the students looked on with admiration. Rainbow Dash dropped the mic and Sonic dashed out of his seat and he caught it. Sonic faced the excited students.

"YEAH!!! WE'RE THE WONDERCOLTS, BABY!!!!!!" He shouted as he pointed his finger up, making all the students cheer even louder.

As the pep rally was over, students began to exit the gym. Now, they were sure that they had a chance of winning, something they'd never felt before. As they approached the exit, Sunset and the others were joined by Sonic and Rainbow Dash, who were both giving wide grins.

"That was incredible! Even I feel that we might win!" Fluttershy said.

"Got to admit, that made me almost as excited as Sonic!" Tails agreed.

"I've never been prouder to be Wondercolt!" Rarity praised.

"Yeah, for once, I don't feel silly for being called that!" Manic admitted.

"I wasn't that interested before but now, I'm curious to see how this goes." Silver stated.

"At the end, Rainbow Dash ponied up without her guitar again. Anyone else wonderin' why that happens?" AppleJack wondered out loud.

"It's awesome, isn't it?! It was the perfect way to end the rally!" Rainbow Dash said as she and Sonic high-fived.

"It's cool and all, but I still haven't been able to figure out why. There has to be reason." Sunset pondered.

Suddenly, Vice Principal Luna appeared behind them, making all of them turn to her.

"I hope you'll be able to find out why. With the Friendship games coming up, Celestia and I were hoping that magic or anything unusual could be kept under wraps. We don't want Crystal Prep to see us as cheaters. These games are serious. Sunset, can I count on you?" Luna said as her eyes focused on Sunset. Sunset rubbed her arm and looked a little uneasy for a while. She had been trying to figure out why for a week and didn't have much luck. But she couldn't let the school down. She made herself smile and she looked up at Luna.

"I'll try." She said, making Luna smile with reassurance.

"As if we need magic against those ruffians." Rarity dimissed.

"Yeah, Don't sweat about it, VP. This is going to be way past cool!" Sonic announced as he pointed to himself.

Luna then turned to Sonic with a nervous look. She cleared her throat.

"I appreciate your enthusiasm, Sonic. The thing is, I wanted to talk to you about your participation in the games." Luna began.

"'What about it?"

"As I said before, Celestia and I want to keep anything strange away from these games. And seeing as your, um, 'talents' aren't exactly normal.."

Sonic raised an eyebrow. He wasn't sure where this was going.

".....Sonic, you can't participate in the Friendship Games." Luna finished.

Everyone gasped out in surprise at Luna's words except Sonic. He stood still, frozen, trying to make sense of what Luna had just told him. It was like gut punching blow. Sonic's face was drained of it's usual enthusiasm. His face was now like the students before the rally. 'Can't participate?'

"WHAT???????!??!??!??" Sonic shrieked.

Author's Note:

This is just the start of the Friendship Games adaptation, a short little preview. Sonic can't participate? What a surprise?! Once the NiGHTS storyline is done, then I'll update this. Please leave any thoughts or any ideas. Until next time, take care.
