I had finally got it, after months of waiting I have finally attained what I truly wanted. A Wii U and Super Smash Brothers. It had not been easy but I finally earned enough money from my part time job working at a nearby hamburger restaurant, and coming from a herbivore like myself it was pure hell to say the least. I wasn't talking about the smell of greasy meat or the agony of my feet when I finally trudged into my cheap apartment, no the worst thing that I had to endure there was... The customers. Slapping a fake smile as I had to interact with demanding and rude customers wanting specific things for their meals was grating, but nonetheless when I saw my first paycheck I had to endure it for a bit longer just to get my very own game console. I don't know if it was while I was dating Flash or the times I spent watching Rainbow Dash and Applejack play on Pinkie's old Gamecube during the sleepovers but there's something about playing a game that drags me into a world that seems more exciting than where I am. Maybe it's my inner child talking, maybe I want to be a bit immature but I don't care, I carefully counted the bills required for my soon to be purchase and somehow I was containing my excitement as the woman behind the counter places the money into the register and puts the console and game as well as a $100 E-Shop card into the plastic bag with the store's name and logo on it and hands me the change and places the receipt inside it, I calmly grab the bag thanking the woman and I walk out of the store. I look around to see if I was alone before I finally place the contents of my bag onto the ground. I open my mouth "Yes, yes yes yes!" I chanted while dancing excitedly, I was sure that I was looking like an fool but I didn't care at that moment, after spending hours in a hot and greasy burger joint it was worth it. "Ahem." A voice coughed and I abruptly stops, I turn my head to see a older woman looking at me. "Eh-heh, sorry. Just a bit over excited." I lamely explained with a heavy blush at being caught dancing like an idiot, the older woman rolls her eyes at me before leaving me alone. I quickly grab my bag and fast-walked towards my apartment. I quickly enter my apartment and place the bag onto my coffee table and I was about to open it when my phone rings. I sigh and answer it "Hello?" I ask the caller. "Hey Baconopolis, it's me." The familiar voice of Rainbow Dash answers "Where are you? We've been here at Sugarcube Corner waiting for you." she tells me, I facepalm at forgetting that I was supposed to meet my friends there after school. "Sorry, I just got back from the game store." I explained to her, I told my friends that I was going to buy a Wii U so I was taking up a part time job to get it. "No way, you finally got it?" Rainbow asks me excitedly. "Yeah, I was just about to open it when you called." I tell her "Just give me a moment and I'll be there." I said. "No way, we're coming to you. There's no way I'm not going to help break in a new game or console." she said and before I could say otherwise the phone hangs up, I shake my head and returned to the task of opening the package, and after hooking up and following the prompts I had to wait for the system to be updated which took less time than I thought, the same when I installed the game, and after paying for the downloadable content I was ready to brawl, it was at this time that there was a knock at the door, I opened it to see my friends standing on the other side. To my surprise Pinkie and Applejack were carrying snacks and drinks making this an impromptu party, they place the bags onto the table and place the contents out for everyone's consumption. "Hey guys, you're just in time. I just finished downloading the content." I tell them, then I paused before facepalming the second time tonight. "What's the matter dear?" Rarity asks me. "In my hurry I forgot to get controllers for the rest of us. And it's too late to go to the game store to buy five more controllers." I said to them feeling bad that I forgot to include my friends. "No need to fear Pinkie Pie is here!" The aforementioned person spoke before reaching into her hair and to the surprise of everyone pulls out aforementioned controllers. "Wha...how?" The recent addition to our circle of friends the former Crystal Prep student and this world's version of Princess Twilight Sparkle, I've taken to giving her the nickname of SciTwi in my head so there wouldn't be any confusion between the two. "Sugarcube, one of the things we've learned early on is that no one can explain how or why she can do the things she does. Simply put 'It's just Pinkie'." Applejack explained before grabbing one of the offered controllers. Everyone else follow suit and soon all seven of us were locked in combat for the fate of the world, victory hinged on our individual skills and drive to win until when time runs out a final winner was announced. "The winner is...Peach!" The announcer's voice spoke as Fluttershy's character had won the battle royal much to the shock of her best friend Rainbow. "Okay we need to keep Fluttershy away from the Home-Run Bat." Rainbow said with the rest of us nodding in agreement because at some point during the battle Fluttershy managed to somehow knock all six of us out of bounds at once with said bat while we were close together. And soon the battle began anew and each one of us using different characters minus the Mii Fighter seeing as I haven't created a Mii yet. After awhile we stop playing so we could take a break. "You know we haven't used the Mii Fighters yet." SciTwi point out. "How about we create some based off of us?" I suggest "That way we can fight as ourselves." I tell them. "Awesome, I'm going to rock as a Swordfighter." Rainbow brags. "Not if my Gunner has anything to say about that." Applejack challenged. "Okay, just let me get out of the game so we can create the Mii's." I said exiting the game and into the Mii Maker, I select create from scratch and select female, my eyes widen "What the hell? There's no option for my skin color!" I said out loud. Rarity frowned "And there is no option for my luxurious hair for that matter." she voiced her opinion. "You would think the makers of this should've thought to include more distinct hairstyles and colors." SciTwi said. "I was hoping to create a Mii that would actually look like me but this sucks." I complained. "So you wanted to make a mini me?" Pinkie said giggling. "No a mini me." I said. Fluttershy placed her hand over Pinkie's mouth before she could utter another word "Pinkie this is not the time to start something." she points out and turns to me "I'm sure the makers tried but I doubt even they could anticipate every type of hair, skin and eye color in existence." she tells me. I sigh "Fine, I can accept that reasoning." I relent "So how about we get started on making some Mii's?" I ask my friends and soon seven new Mii's are born from friendship. The End
