End of the Prank

Everyone made worried noises, as they were sad for what they did to Rainbow Dash, either they blamed her a lot because of her pranks. Scootaloo was seen crying with Sweetie Belle and Applebloom, calming her as for blaming herself for what she did to her big sister as well.

Then, Scootaloo says herself terrible for what she did to her big sister.

"W-we're terrible! We blamed her with no reason!" Scootaloo cried in tears.

"N-no! I-It's not your fault, Scootaloo, we also hold that fault in our hands. We were in part of that prank as well.." Applebloom calmed Scootaloo.

"Applebloom's right, Scootaloo.. your sister would never stop loving you! She knows without her she's nothing, either you.." The unicorn filly said.

"NO! I shouldn't deserve to be forgiven! I am a monster, a zombie! A true zombie, who made her sister hurt!" Scootaloo confessed.

"NO! SCOOTALOO, I SAID NO!" Sweetie Belle screamed.

Scootaloo stopped weeping due to that high-voice. Sweetie Belle couldn't do anything but just a sigh and explaining her.

"Scootaloo, I know that the prank did hurt her feelings but, we don't know what she'll decide. She will not break your love chain but, she can either forget her friends, either going into depression. But, we are NOT a fan of these options, and these options may not come true, or it will! But, Scootaloo.. listen.. if you trust yourself that anything wouldn't be wrong, than just wait until the future shows!" Sweetie Belle explained.

Scootaloo wiped her tears.

"A-Are you sure anything wouldn't be wrong?" Scootaloo questioned.

Sweetie Belle putted her hoof on Scootaloo's shoulder.

"Promise.." Sweetie smiled.

Suddenly, a pony saw the girls flying down, this makes the pony scream to make them alert.

"Everypony! Look, it's the princess!" The pony screamed.

This drew attention towards the sky, where the princess was seen, flying down and landing fluently. She walks in the light, which causes the ponies to mumble for what happened.

"What happened, Princess? Did she forgive you?" A pony cried.

"Did she killed herself?" Another pony cried.

"Did he broke my and your love?!" Scootaloo cried in fear.

Twilight stayed silent. She didn't say anything but, to make a blank impression.

"W-what's wrong, Twilight?! Where's Rainbow Dash?!"

Twilight moved her head back, nodding and then turning back to the crowd. Rainbow Dash went through the light, which caused Scootaloo to cry and hugging her.

"RAINBOW DASH, I'M SO SORRY! SO SO SORRY! I'M A HORRIBLE PERSON!" Scootaloo said in tears.

"N-no, Squirt! It's not your fault." Rainbow Dash replied.

"But, it's my fault.. I was also the part of the prank and hurted your feelings..."

"Look, Squirt. In life, when you make a mistake, never blame yourself for making that, because this is how life goes! Mistakes go everytime and anytime, which teach us a life lesson that makes us remember till we die..."

"B-but, I thought you will never love me.."

"I DO love you, Scootaloo! Without you, I'm nothing.."

The sisters have a familiar hug. Then, Twilight walks from the crowd and says:

"We're sorry that we made that prank, we didn't know that prank would hurt your feelings! B-but.. we didn't care about that.." Twilight shook her head in disappointment, while Rainbow puts her head up by her hoof.

"Look, Twilight.. I have taught many things from you.. that, what is actually friendship! And that's the only thing I like. First of all, I didn't had so many friends, but when I met you, I saw you like, you were random here. But, I treated you as a friend and it's what's happening currently! If you were not there, I would not make such awesome friends I've met in my entire life. If, I want to be honest, I am not angry at you guys at all, as I really learnt a lesson from you all. That my pranks were hurtful! But, you made my understood how this would end if I ever did this, and that's my only lesson.." Rainbow replied.

"O-oh.. Rainbow.." Twilight said in tears.

They both hugged each other, making verify that the friendship problem's solved. This also makes her friends and others to cry to see such true friendship into them. Slowly the camera pans to sky, making stars twinkle and fading to black.

THE END

Wait.. I think I've heard this! :D

Your on Deviantart, as well? :)

8365496
Yes, why? Was this story on deviant-art beforehand?

8365508
I know you! :D

You also commented this on one of my stories based on this on Deviantart, since I was not on FimFiction. xD

8367444
Which one exactly? You have the link by chance?

8368898
I don't know that.. because it's been a long time..

But, I swear! I'm 'khushi1428', remember? :D

8369366
I think so if I could remember which story it was exactly that I first came across you. I just remember, I came across a story based on this episode just today on deviant-art by someone named "Khushi-19". Is that you by chance?

8370110
Yes! xD

I am Khushi-19! xDD

everyone's overreacting a little.

she was over-pranking so they pranked her back.

8365455
there are lots of ways those punishments are bad ideas and kind of overboard.

9985968
No worries, those are are just my thoughts on the matter & don't have to happen for real, I'm positive you folks can think of better ways.

9985968
I probably should tell you the main reason behind these thought's.

9986105
The reason for these ideas was that I figured it was about time the mane six & a few of the townsfolk was reprimanded for their O.O.C. actions that most viewers didn't much approve of seeing that they were against either the said ELEMENTS their suppose to represent or character traits they've been known for up to now. Especially incidents centered around season 2 when things began to change like Mysterious Mare DO Well & Ponyville Confidential, & A Canterlot Wedding. These three episodes according to the website alone appear to be the most talked about for leaving a bad taste in the viewers mouths. What do you think?

9986163 you want to know my take? alright, strap in then. :raritywink:


I personally think these are exaggerated by the audience who seem to forget that this is a show about making mistakes and learning from them. Not to mention this is early in the series, you can't expect them to be perfect angels when the series has barely begun. And I have seen some stories take pretty lousy directions stemming from this forgetfulness [no offense to you]

In fact, I remember a Canterlot Wedding story where Twilight up and disowned everybody from family to friends to her teacher and she refused to hear out their attempts to apologize and ran away to the human world and agreed to team up with sunset to go back rob everyone of their magic and conquer Equestria and do horrible things to the ponies she once called friends, family, and loved ones.

What would you call that? because I call it beyond petty is what the Twilight of that story is doing.



To put it straight, my takes on these stories is this.

28 pranks later: this was a prank, a prank ment to teach Rainbow what it was like to be on the business end of an elaborate prank and get her to stop her rampant pranking. I mean was this half as bad as Rainbow Dash persuing Fluttershy through a dark and dense forest dressed up like a dragon [something she has a huge phobia of] knowing full well of her sensitivity and phobia? I mean she thought she was going to die and while Rainbow was laughing at her she was crying her eyes out from fear.

the Canterlot wedding thing is another heavily exaggerated thing, I explained it well during a debate on the story broken trust [i think it was called]. you'll get a good view of my take there.

and as for Mare do well watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tS5RKwnHG1k&list=LLBkKNVBXyRc4io86dEQ2wEQ&index=56&t=0s

9986193
Many thanks for the info good sir. Any takes on Ponyville Confidential?

9986291
I actually don't know what the beef with that episode is.

9987061
I believe the beef is that the townsfolk(Siblings included) cold heartily turned their backs on the CMC's for getting so sucked up into those GABBY GUMS stories despite it was their own fault for asking more in the first place until they began to targeted them under the order's of Diamond Tiara who was chef editor at the time. Not to mentioned they never found out it was really her behind it all & got away with it scoot free coupled with the fact the townsfolk as well weren't reprimanded for their actions as well for they brought all of this on themselves.

9987166then my response is


I think they were asking for more entertaining and frequent news so why is it their fault for being angry at being smeared like this?

If anything I would expect the viewers to understand why the townspeople are angry. I mean would you happily talk to the children who have spied on you and written embarrassing in bogus things about you in the newspaper. If anything they were avoiding them out of fear of some other personal secret of theirs or somebody else is what gets exposed.

There's a fault to be had its Diamond Tiara for forcing to CMC need to do this I personally find it a bit ridiculous everyone's pinning it all on the townspeople and they're just upset about their personal lives being invaded.

They asked for more news not slander which is what the CMC seemed to be doing.

9987200
You do realize the CMC's at first were doing stories the folks were already enjoying but didn't live up to D.T.'s standards & were being BLACKMAILED into writing those other stories as a result yes?

9987280
Yes, and she was punished properly by being booted as the head of the foal free press.

But how could the townsfolk have known the CMC were being bribed? Someone would have stepped in then. General populace focus tends to target a source of ire. And that focus was on three fillies spying on and exposing private stuff.

I won't blame the townsfolk for being upset for being embarrassed on fine print. The only one people should be upset at is DT for masterminding these stories and forcing the CMC to take the hit for it.

And at least they forgave them quickly.

9987358
Mainly because they never bothered asking. Not to mention it turns out that Fashion Brat Rarity instead of confronting the CMC's about those stories decides to go around their backs & FINKS on them to her friends with the thought's that her pride & reputation of what others would think of her & the others was more important than Family. Ergo she basically threw them to the LIONS.

9987384
Its a little unrealistic for them to ask them out of nowhere if their being blackmailed if all the incriminating material is coming from their column.

Given that they needed to search for more material for their column by demand of the Ponyville inhabitants and these incriminating stories suddenly appear on their column under Gabby gums which was revealed to be them, kind of makes them look like the bad guys here to the ones we're getting made fun of because of these stories.

And in case you're forgetting thanks to her father being the richest stallion in town Diamond Tiara has a level of immunity unless shes caught right in the act. She's one of those 'good girl's by view from the adults. So those who don't know her have no real reason to suspect her offhand.

9987415
Did you happen to come across a question I posted on the website relating to this episode?

9987463
I don't know, What question is that? :applejackunsure:

9987498 I immensely doubt that final comment dictating that their lives would completely shatter, everyone would abandon them and everything they had would fall apart just because they were upset with a few fillies for having lies about them written on paper for everybody to see.

I still don't see why the six have to throw themselves at the CMC's hooves and beg for forgiveness when they were rightfully mad at about having their personal lives being invaded and didn't know about the blackmailing.

When the gossiping started it was harmless Jabs at some ponies. nothing seriously damaging like how there later issues included claims that Fluttershy got hair extensions or how Twilight is just another Canterlot snob or how Rarity's diary was invaded and posted nobody's going to act positively when that's going on.

The CMC felt bad about it which shows they didn't like posting this. The fault should go to DT since she masterminded these stories not the ones who were keeping the CMC at hooves length because they were mad about what was being posted about them.

Rarity Applejack and Rainbow Dash especially deserve to feel a touch of betrayal since the CMC we're close to them.

Is nobody going to look at it from the victim's standpoint? lies and exxagerations were made and ponies got hurt from it. Ponies are being made fun of because of Gabby gums and Rarity even had her diary copied down and posted on the paper her personal secrets.

You would be a little bit peeved too if somebody took your personal Secrets and posted them on the local paper without your permission. Are people just supposed to ignore this? The CMC apologized everything's alright now, why can't people be satisfied with that?

I'm sorry if my opinions differ from yours but it's true.

9987498
Look, let's agree to disagree on this, I don't want to spam this story like this.

the same guy who reviewed Mare-do-well reviewed this as well here is the video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsbb__JvRGE

let me know what you think and we'll let that be the end of this discussion involving ponyville confidential. :pinkiesmile:

9987589
No worries, I'm not phase by your opinions.

I wouldn’t be upset if this is how the episode went.

9987589
Yeah but they liked all the stories until the story was about them. That's why diamond wouldn't let it go
