"Hoof-biting action overload! She was like a stunt superstar, flying higher and higher, and then Rainbow Dash swooped down-swoosh-and right before she hit the ground-shoom-she pulled up-vrrrmmm!" Pinkie Pie imitated some sounds and mimicked acrobatic moves. Zach Lanson and Twilight Sparkle sit on a park bench while reading and pretending to listen.

"Uh-huh." Twilight said in an ignoring mood.

"That's neat." Zach joined.

"And then she looped around and around like whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo." Pinkie fell to the ground amusingly after acting the sounds

"Uh-huh."

"Yep, that's cool." the two ignored again. Then Pinkie noticed something flying in the sky. It was at a coincidental time Rainbow Dash flying over the park. Pinkie then got up and decided to follow her.

"Phew." Twilight sighed.

"Finnaly. Chapter 3..." Zach began reading aloud.

"Rainbow Dash!" Pinkie called out to her. Rainbow Dash notices her and produces an annoyed look.

"[moans] Pinkie Pie? Not again." Dash whispered to herself and started flying faster.

"Rainbow Dash." Pinkie began galloping to catch up.

"Not now, Pinkie Pie." Dash said to her and started flying even faster.

"But, but Rainbow Dash-"

"I'm in the middle of something."

"But-"

"I said not now-[grunt]." she suddenly crashed into something and started sliding down from it. As soon as she hits the ground Pinkie was waiting for her.

"I was gonna tell you to look out for that mountain." Pinkie explained. Dash grumbled at the typical random Pinkie Pie.

-Main music plays-

Pinkie Pie was trotting around Ponyville the next day humming to herself. Rainbow Dash wasn't too far to hear her while she is napping on a cloud. When she heard her humming she took small pieces of the cloud she lies on puts them in hear ears to block the sounds.

"Hi, I'm looking for Rainbow Dash. Have you seen her?" Pinkie asked some shoppers. Dash widened her eyes and quickly dug herself inside the cloud.

"Hi there, have you seen Rainbow Dash? Okay, thanks anyway. Zach, Twilight, have you seen Rainbow Dash anywhere?" Pinkie asked the two.

"Isn't she right up there?" Twilight pointed at the cloud above them.

"Yep, I can sense her up there." Zach affirmed.

"Rainbow Dash." Pinkie yelled up to her. Dash came out of the cloud in panic and looked around for a place to hide from the slightly annoying pink pony and flew away from the cloud. Pinkie made small high hops and followed Dash. She then came to Sweet Apple Acres and hid behind the barn. She checked to see if Pinkie was any far behind.

"Phew. That was close." Dash sighed in relief and turned to leave.

"Hi!" Pinkie mysteriously appeared in front of her and scared her. She screamed and flew as fast as she could away from Pinkie to find another hiding place. Pinke was doing the same slow hop as last time to Dash's direction. Dash found the library tree and hid inside the branches and leaves. She checked to see if Pinkie was around but didn't see her. She panted tiredly and thought it was over.

"Hi again." Pinkie said under her as Dash was standing right on her. She screamed again and flew away to find yet another hiding spot. Pinke continued the slow hop following Dash. But Dash was hiding behind a cloud above her and started going the other direction. She landed near a lake a looked out in the fields to see her. Pinke again randomly appeared out of the lake wearing snorkle gear.

"Pfeh. I need a favor, Rainbow Dash." Pinkie said as she spat out the snorkle from her mouth. Dash was ready to retreat again.

"Waaa-oh, forget it." Dash gave up and fell to the ground in defeat.

"I totally promise it'll be totally fun." Pinkie assured.

"[sighs] Okay." Dash said in a depressing tone. Dash was moving a storm cloud near town hall with Pinkie looking at and examined it from the ground.

"Over to the right. No no, a little to the left. Oh wait, back to the right. Now a little leftish while staying rightly. Stop. Hmm. Maybe a few inches to the south. Now a couple centimeters north. Okay. One more smidgimeter to the-" Pinkie was ordering Dash to move it everywhere she tells her to and is getting on Dash's nerves.

"Pinkie Pie!" Dash yelled at her.

"Uh, I mean, perfect. Now wait for my signal." Pinkie said sheepishly and hid by the front doors of the building. Inside is Spike gathering scrolls and humming the same familiar tune that Fluttershy hummed that Zach couldn't desciple grom the ticket mishap that happened a couple days ago. Spike was exiting the town hall when Pinkie signaled Dash to hit the cloud which she did in return produced lightning and a loud thunder. Spike yelled in surprise and dropped the scrolls and stood there for a couple seconds until he started hicupping.

"[laughing] Oh Rainbow Dash, we startled Spike into getting the hiccups." Pinkie laughed and Dash joined in. Spike realized what's going on and couldn't help but smile.

"[chuckles] Good one, Pinkie [hiccup] Pie. [hiccup] You're always pulling a fast one [hiccup] on me." Spike said between his hiccups. He started picking up the scrolls again but hiccuped a scroll away and send it to Princess Celestia.

"Oh no, you're not hurt are you?" Pinkie asked worriedly.

"Ne-[hiccup]-eh, don't be [hiccup] silly, dragons are [hiccup] fire-proof." Spike assured. At Canterlot castle Celestia was reading another scroll until the same one Spike accidentally sent appeared in front of her.

"Oh, okay, good." Pinkie said and looked at Dash. They resumed their laughing and Spike was gathering the scrolls he dropped but hiccuped again and sent multiple more to the castle.

"I wish the same thing [hiccup] were true with scrolls." Spike said. Celestia was looking at the blank scroll in confusion until the piles of scrolls were falling on her. Pinkie and Dash continued laughing to see Spike hiccuping the dropped scrolls away repeatedly.

"Have you ever seen anything more hilarious? [laughs]" Pinkie asked and fell to the ground in laughter.

"I can think of one thing." Dash said as she kicked the cloud and startled Pinkie. She then began hiccuping herself but laughed between her hiccups.

"I didn't take you for a prankster, Pinkie Pie." Dash admitted and flew next to Pinkie.

"Are you [hiccup] kidding? [hiccup] I love to pull pranks. It's all [hiccup] in good fun, and Pinkie Pie lo-[hiccup]-oves to have [hiccup] fun! [hiccup]" Pinkie said happily.

"You know Pinkie Pie, you're not as annoying as I thought." Dash admitted again. Pinke hiccuped again after she was done.

"You wanna hang out?" Dash offered and Pinkie smiled. She was about to answer until she was hiccuping cuntrollably and started randomly flying all over the place.

"[hiccup] That'd be [hiccup] I'd really [hiccup] When do [hiccup] I mean [hiccup] When would you [hiccup]" Pinkie tried to answer but couldn't. Dash put out a hoof and stopped Pinkie in her tracks with her hoof in her mouth.

"A simple nod would do." Dash said.

"Mmm-hmm." Pinkie nodded and went to the prank store to buy prank products. They went to Rarity's boutique and put a stack of flowers in front of her door and put some sort of powder on it. They rang the door bell and hid behind some nearby bushes.

"Is she even home?" Dash asked.

"I don't know. This is gonna be gold." Pinkie snickerd along with Dash. Rarity opened the top part of her dutch door and looked around for her ringer.

"There she is." Dash said and both pranksters hid behind the bushes. Rarity notices the flowers below her and was delighted to take a sniff. She then felt something on her nose and pulled out to see a powder on her nose. She was gasping lightly until she sneezed a couple times. She then heard lauging and saw Dash and Pinkie laughing with a can of sneezing powder with them. Dash swiftly ran from Rarity and dropped the can with Pinkie behind. She then made a huge sneeze and zoomed out of the scene with Rarity having an amusing smile on her face. At the library Zach and Twilight were doing a potion experiement while Zach was humming the tune he had in his head while helping with the Summer Sun Celebration preperations the first time he came to Equestria. Twilight was putting down some notes on a scroll and turned to mix some potions together. Zach then notices the writing Twilight put down suddenly vanished.

"Uh Twilight?" Zach said to her. Twilight turned and in surprise saw her words dissapear. She turned to the potions which are bubbling rapidly but turned back at the scroll to figure out the mystery.

"Wait-but what about-I need-Ah!" Zach shouted as a flash of smoke appeared as he tried to stop the affect. Twilight turned to see Zach's face covered in black ash and soot.

"[cough] I think you [cough] mixed the wrong potions." Zach said as he coughed out black smoke.

"Now how did-" Zach said as they looked at the bottle of ink and heard laughing. They checked out of the window where the source was coming from and saw Dash and Pinkie laughing with a bottle of dissapearing ink. They smiled and walked away to get cleaned up. At Sweet Apple Acres Applejack was pulling out a cart getting ready to work on gathering more apples for the day. She then gasped to see every single apple had changed with multiple colors on them.

"Land sakes!" Applejack said in disbelief. She then heard chuckling. She turned to see Dash and Pinkie with paint brushes and paint trays. They laughed at the sight of the surprised farmer but quickly turned to fear to see Applejack throw there colored apples at them in anger. Applejack sees an apple colors wash away to it's original red look in a barrel of water. She couldn't help but chuckle to see what they did. At a nearby lake Fluttershy was feeding fishes and turtles. A strange looking turtle with a rope behind it led to a rock with Dash looking at it with a telescope and Pinkie holding the other end of the rope with a squeezer on it. She was hopping in excitement waiting to know who their next victim is.

"Is someone over there? Who're we gonna squirt? Who're we gonna squirt?" Pinkie asked happily with the squeezer in her mouth.

"[chuckles] Fluttershy." Dash answered mischeviously.

"WHAT? [spits] Nononononono, we can't prank Fluttershy, I mean, she's so sensitive. It'll hurt her feelings, even our most harmless prank." Pinkie begged.

"Yeah, you're right. [raspberry] Huh. We need another victim who's made of tougher stuff. So, who's it gonna be?" Dash said looking around. Pinkie began snickering to see a black ring around the Dash's eye she used to see through the telescope.

"Oh, [chuckles] I've got someone in mind. [chuckles] The toughest around." Pinkie said with an amusing smile.

"Oh, awesome. Who? Who? Do I know them?" Dash asked excitingly.

"[giggles] Oh, yes. [giggles] You're very close." Pinkie pointed at her and Dash looked at her reflection in the water and realized what she's talking about.

"[chuckles] Good one, Pinkie Pie." Dash commented and led out her hoof for a high five (hoof). Pinkie went to hit it with her hoof but was pulled away and came back. She tried again but was again pulled away. She looked at her and saw an amusing smile on her. They broke into a laugh as the end of the day nears. Fluttershy notices the lifeless turtle and couldn't help but poke it to see it's head dangle in surprise. The next day Pinkie was trotting on a pathway that leads to Rainbow Dash's house. On the way she is wearing swirly glasses with a red nose and mustache on it and a fake arrow to the head while blowing on a kazooie. She reaches Dash's floating cloud house with rainbow waterfalls on the sides.

"Rise and shine Rainbow Dash! It's a brand new day and we got a lot of pranking to-" Pinkie calls for Dash and sees someone come out but it wasn't Rainbow Dash. It was an Eagle head pointing out of the doorway and looked at Pinkie with a constricted eye to get a better look at her. pinkie awed in surprise to see the unexpected guest.

"Mornin', Pinks. Gilda, this is my gal pal, Pinkie Pie." Dash appeared and introduced the eagle creature to Pinkie whose name appears to be Gilda. They both flew down and landed. The eagle creature however didn't appear as a full eagle but the back half of her is a lions. She appears to be known as a griffon.

"Hey. What's up?" Gilda said in a radical like voice.

"Pinkie, this is my griffon friend, Gilda." Dash introduced her to Gilda.

"What's a griffon?" Pinkie asked curiously.

"She's half-eagle, half-lion." Dash explained.

"And all awesome." Gilda boasted. She and Dash then made a hoof to claw bump symbolizing their friendship.

"Gilda's my best friend from my days at Junior Speedster flight camp. Hey, remember the chant?" Dash asked.

"Sha, they made us recite it every morning, I'll never get that lame thing out of my head." Gilda said.

"Sooo..." Dash looked at her with pleading eyes. Gilda realizes what she wants and sighed.

"Only for you, Dash." Gilda warned.

"Junior Speedsters are our lives,

Sky-bound soars and daring dives

To some day be the very best!" Dash and Gilda sang with Dash having a more upbeat tone while Gilda had a very bored voice.

"[laughs] Oh that was awesome, and it gave me a great idea for a prank. Gilda, you game?" Pinkie asked her happily.

"Huh. Well, I groove on a good prank as much as the next griffon. But Dash, you promised me we'd get a flying session in this morning." Gilda reminded.

" Yeah, uh, well, Pinkie Pie, you don't mind, do you? Gilda just got here. We'll catch up with you later." Dash said as she flew off with Gilda.

"Oh. Um, well sure, no problem. Have fun you guys, I'll, uh, just catch up with you- [sigh] later." Pinkie said as she drooped in a depressing manner. Dash and Gilda race around Ponyville with competitiveness. They both landed on a cloud laughing like long time friends.

"Whoa, that was sweet. Just like old times." Gilda commented.

"Yeah, only faster. So now what?" Dash asked.

"Hey there." Pinkies head pops out of the cloud and sinks back in.

"Huh?" both the flyers said in confusion.

"It's later. And I caught up." Pinkie said as the same routine was going on. Underneath them they see a trampoline Pinkie was bouncing on to get high enough.

"Pinkie Pie, you are so random." Dash said playfully. Gilda on the other hand was not amused by the overhyped pony.

"Hey Dash, think you got enough gas left to beat me to that cloud?" Gilda challenged.

"A race? You are so on." Dash accepted competitively.

"One, two, three, go." Gilda counted down and both flyers zoomed of the cloud leaving Pinkie.

"Hey!" Pinkie yelled but the two kept flying to the higher clouds. They both pass through the cloud Gilda pointed at.

"I win." Dash said.

"As if. I won, dude." Gilda countered. They went on about that the other won or the other did.

" Wow guys, that was really close, but I think Rainbow Dash beat you by a teeny weeny itty bitty hair, or a teeny weeny itty bitty feather." Pinkie said while floating with a bunch of balloons tied around her.

"Hah, see? Good thing Pinkie Pie's here to keep you honest, G." Dash gloated. Gilda was getting pretty annoyed by Dash's party friend.

"Okay... Dash, last one to that cloud up there is a gnarly dragon egg. Go!" Gilda said and Dash made a cloud of dust which made a trail but as the cloud dissapated Gilda appeared to be in the same place she stood with an angry look on her face.

"I think the high altitude is making you dizzy." Gilda mocked and popped some of the balloons with her claws and Pinkie slowly descends.

"Wait, guys!" Pinkie called out as she falls but was ignored. Gilda caught up with Dash and rested on another cloud.

"Oh wow, you guys almost got away from me that time." Pinkie appeared again this time in a helicopter like vehicle with bike like peddals on it. Gilda then decided she had enough of Pinkie.

"So, Dash, got any new moves in your tricktionary, or are you 100% old school?" Gilda asked.

"New moves? Heh, sit back G, this is gonna take a while." Dash flew off to do her acrobatic tricks. Gilda looked to see her out of hearing sight and turned to Pinkie.

"Hey Pinkie, c'mere." Gilda gestured her to come forth with her claw.

"Yeah?" Pinkie got closer with her vehicle. As she was close enough Gilda grabbed the pole that holds the propeller.

"Don't you know how to take get lost for an answer? Dash doesn't need to hang with a dweeb like you now that I'm around. You're dorkin' up the skies, Stinkie Pie, so make like a bee and BUZZ OFF." Gilda shouted at her rudley and grabbed the propeller fins and sent Pinkie spinning.

"[gasp] Whaaa-aaa–" Pinkie screamed as she spinned out of control and headed for the earth grounds.

"Try matching that. Hey, where's Pinkie Pie and her crazy contraption?" Dash returned and looked around for her missing pink friend.

"Eh, she left. Something about being as busy as a bee." Gilda said and looked down with a smug grin. Pinkie crashed landed on the ground and was bewildered at the griffons mean behavior.

"So Pinkie Pie, are you sure that this friend of Rainbow Dash is really so mean?" Twilight asked Pinkie at the library while reading after hearing the incident with Gilda.

"Um, yeah. She keeps stealing Rainbow Dash away, she pops my balloons, and she told me to buzz off. I've never met a griffon this mean. Well, actually, I've never met a griffon at all, but I bet if I had, she wouldn't have been as mean and grumpy as Gilda." Pinkie said in anger.

"You know what I think, Pinkie Pie." Twilight said.

"Hmm?" Pinkie asked curiously.

"Well, I think... you're jealous." Twilight admitted.

"Jealous?" Pinkie repeated in shock.

"Green with envy. Well, in your case, pink with envy." Spike joked.

"[chuckles] Yeah, that was a good one." Zach laughed as he and Spike read on the staircase.

"Well, yes. Jealous. Listen Pinkie, I don't want to upset you, but just because Rainbow Dash had another friend doesn't mean it makes Gilda a grump. I mean, perhaps it's you, Pinkie, who needs to improve her attitude." Twilight explained.

"Improve my attitude? But I- D- B- it's Gilda that- D- are you seri- [frustrated scream]" Pinkie was in disbelief that she couldn't find the words and stomped out of the library angrily and slammed the door leaving Twilight with a sigh.

"Do you really think she is overreacting about this Gilda griffon character? It just isn't Pinkie who accuses others on purpose." Zach asked.

"I know, but the way she made it sound of her spending more time with Rainbow also makes it sound like she feels like being left out." Twilight said.

"I don't know. Like AJ, she rarely lies for accusations more than doing it for a good cause."

"Maybe, but I have some doubts."

"I'll go talk to her and calm her down. Maybe I can have a better understanding of this situation." Zach said and left the library to find Pinkie.

"Maybe Twilight is right. Maybe Gilda isn't a big meanie grumpy mean-meanie-pants. Maybe I'm just a big jealous judgmental jealous-jealousy-pants. [sign]" Pinkie sighed in a confused depressed manner. She went to Ponyville and bought a smoothie to think of her behavior against Gilda. She then heard two laughing voices who she recognizes as Rainbow Dash and Gilda. She hides behind the table she was sitting at to keep out of their sight.

"[laughing] That was sweet." Gilda complimented.

"Ugh, I gotta take care of a few weather jobs around here. Shouldn't take long. Just, uh, hang out in town and I'll come find ya." Dash said.

"That's cool, I guess. I'm gonna go chow down." Gilda said.

"Later." Dash said as she left. Gilda saw a food stand and smiled devilishly. Granny Smith came up to it and siffed some of the food. Gilda then came over and put out her tail in front of Granny Smith and notices it.

"Aaah! A rattler, a rattler! Run for the hills! Everybody forsake yourselves!" Granny smith screamed and ran at a turtle pace. Gilda pats the tomatoes with her tail and notices the owner of the stand notices.

"This stuff ain't fresh, dude." Gilda rudely said and left.

"Aw, poor Granny Smith, she didn't know it was a joke. How mean. No, no, I can't misjudge her. It was kind of a funny prank, I guess." Pinkie said in denial. Gilda came over to an applecart and sneakly stole an apple with her tail without the owner looking and ate it.

"[gasp] I did misjudge her. She's not only a meanie mean-pants, she's also a thief. Nonononono, she might give it back. It's just a joke." Pinkie said still in denial.

"Alright little ones, this way, this way. Mama duck, you're free and clear." Fluttershy came along with a grown mom duck with her chicks while walking backwards and bumps into Gilda by accident.

"Hey." Gilda shouted at her angrily.

"Please excuse me." Fluttershy said politely.

"I'm walkin' here." Gilda yelled at her irritatedly.

"Oh, um, I'm sorry. I-I-I was just trying to..." Fluttershy began walking away from her in fear.

"[mocking] I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Why don't you just watch where you're going, doofus?" Gilda yelled at her rudley.

"B-b-b-but I... I..." Fluttershy hesitated as the ducks began flying away in fear. Gilda took a long breath and loudly roars in front of her. Fluttershy began crying and ran away.

"Ugh, please, all these lame ponies are driving me buggy. I gotta bail." Gilda said and flew away.

"She's a grump, and a thief, and a bully. The meanest kind of mean meanie-pants there is." Pinkie said as she finally accepts she was right.

"Did I just see a griffon yell at poor, sweet, Fluttershy?" Zach came over in disbelief.

"Yeah. That was Gilda, the meanest mean griffon in the whole world. Now do you believe me?" Pinkie said to him.

"Yes, yo- you were right all along. I'm sorry we accused you." Zach apologised shamefully.

"It's okay. Now that you know the truth, it's cotton candy under the bridge." Pinkie happily accepted his apology.

"Isn't it 'water' under the bridge?" Zach corrected.

"That dosen't matter, we need to show Rainbow Dash the truth on who Gilda really is."

"But how? We're the only ones who know of Gilda's rashness. There's no way they're going to believe me either without any proof."

"Still, I can take it, but no one treats Fluttershy like that. No one. There has got to be a way, there just gotta."

"Any ideas?"

"Yes, this calls for extreme measures, Pinkie Pie style." Pinkie said with a devious smile. Later Zach and Pinkie made a plan on how to show their friends especially Rainbow Dash the 'real' Gilda. By throwing her a party.

"Welcome, welcome. Welcome!" Pinkie greeted the guests who are entering her home.

"This isn't what I had in mind, but I hope this works." Zach admitted annoyingly.

"Who's this Gilda I've heard nothing about?" Applejack asked Rarity who are both at the party.

"I hear she's an old friend of Rainbow Dash. A griffon, so rare." Rarity explained.

"You've met Gilda, right? What's she like?" Twilight asked Fluttershy happily.

"Oh, um, well, I'll tell you later, Twilight." Fluttershy told her for another comfortable time.

"Welcome. Welcome." Pinkie continued to greet the guests and Fluttershy approached her.

"Um, Pinkie Pie, about this party for Gilda. Umm... Do you really think it's a good idea? I mean–" Fluttershy asked nervously.

"Don't worry your pretty little head about mean old Gilda. Your auntie Pinkie Pie's got it all taken care of." Pinkie patted her on the head and went back to the door.

"I'm a year older than you." Fluttershy corrected her.

"She's a year younger than all of us. Don't worry Fluttershy, if that jerk of a griffon comes up to you and asks for trouble, I'll be here to protect you." Zach assured her with trusting eyes.

"Oh, thank you Zach. You're really are a true friend." Fluttershy nuzzled his shoulder with a warm smile. Zach lightly blushed at this.

"Uh, well, I couldn't let someone hurt my friends the way she hurted you." Zach said returning the smile.

"Gilda!" Pinkie happily announced. When Fluttershy heard the name she quickly hid behind Zach in fear while he puts a comforting hoof around her.

"I'm so honored to throw you one of my signature Pinkie Pie parties, and I really, truly, sincerely, hope you feel welcome here amongst all us pony folk." Pinkie held out a hoof to shake her. Gilda slowly moves her claw to grasp it. Once she does she feels a sudden shock. Pinkie revealed a buzzer around her hoof and giggled at the amusing prank she pulled off. Dash came over joining the laugh.

"Oh Pinkie Pie, the old hoof-shake buzzer. You are a scream." Dash complimented.

"Yeah [chuckles nervously] uh, good one, Pinkie Pie." Gilda joined in with a nervous smile.

"Come on G, I'll introduce you to some of my other friends." Dash said as she walked away.

"Right behind you Dash." Gilda said and turned to Pinkie with an angry expression.

"I know what you're up to." Gilda whispered at her menacingly.

"Great." Pinkie happily said.

"Rrrh. I know what you're planning." Gilda corrected irritatedly.

"[giggles] Well, I hope so. This wasn't suppose to be a surprise party." Pinkie playfully said.

"I mean, I've got my eye on you." Gilda looked at her sharply.

"And I got my eye on you." Pinkie countered with her face up to hers and her eyes popping out at hers which surprised Gilda.

"Everyone, I'd like you all to meet Gilda, a long-time, dear friend of Rainbow Dash. Let's honor her and welcome her to Ponyville." Pinkie announced and room cheers for her. Gilda smiles nervously and Dash comes over and joins with a supporting hoof around her.

"Please help yourself." Pinkie offered the food that lies on the table.

"Vanilla lemon drops. Don't mind if I do." Gilda accepts the offer and takes a piece and eats it. Then her face tightens up and makes a flame of fire come out of her mouth. pinkie amusingly grabs a stick and a marshmallow and roasts it from the flame.

"HOT!" Gilda shouted.

"G, the punch." Dash pointed at glass of punch and Gilda rushed over to it and drinks it. She however doesn't feel any liquid come down and notices the drink was way off from her mouth. She stares at it confusingly.

"Well, whaddya know, pepper in the vanilla lemon drops, and the punch served in a dribble glass." Pinkie joked.

"Ha. Priceless. Priceless. [laughs]" Dash laughed and so did the whole room.

"[gulp] [gasp] Yeah, hilarious." Gilda swiftly found a real drink a gulped it down and rolled her eyes in sarcasm.

" Hey G, look, presents." Dash pointed at colorful rapped boxes on a table. Gilda was more than happy to come over and open a few seeing no harm from them. She takes a can and opens it only to find plastic snakes pop out and startle her with her feather poofed up. The room starts laughing again.

"Spittin' snakes. Hah, somepony pulled there prank on me last month." Applejack laughed.

"Ha ha. I bet I know who that was." Gilda stared at Pinkie.

"You do?" Pinkie asked innocently. Later on Fluttershy shows off her conducting skills to the folk by making birds do the melody. Everypony loved the music that Fluttershy was composing.

"Cake time everypony." Pinkie announced and rolls over a cake with candles lit on top of it.

"Hey, can I blow out the candles?" Spike asked.

"Why don't we let Gilda blow out the candles, Spike. She is the guest of honor after all." Twilight pointed out.

"Exactly." Gilda came over and nudged Spike out of the way rudely. Zach gave an angry glare at Gilda without her looking and helped Spike up. Gilda then took a deep breath and blows on the candles but they don't go out leaving her confused. She blows again but still doesn't go out. The ponies laughed at the sight while Gilda keeps blowing until she is out of breath.

"Re-lighting birthday candles, I love that prank. What a classic." Spike laughed.

"Now, I wonder who could've done that." Pinkie put a hoof on her chin and looked around.

"Yeah, I wonder."Gilda glared at Pinkie.

"Mmm, who cares. This cake is amazing." Spike dugged right in the cake and popped out on top like a worm in an apple.

"Spike." Twilight got on him in dissapointment.

"What? It's great, try some." Spike offered as he chowed down on some of the cake.

"Hey G, you're not upset about some silly candles, are you?" Dash came to Gilda with concern.

"No way Dash, like I said, I'm down with a good prank." Gilda assured.

"Come on then, let's have some cake." Dash went over to the cake. While Pinkie was eating some of the cake Gilda grabbed her by the throat and pulled her behind the cake.

"Hey, I'm watching you. Like a hawk." Gilda whispered to her threateningly while pinning her down.

"Why? Can't you watch me like a griffon?" Pinkie joked still in her happy mood.

"Hey y'all, it's pin the tail on the pony. Let's play." Applejack said and brought out a fake tail.

"Oh, my favorite game. Can I go first? Can I have the purple tail?" Rarity asked nicely and went to grab it.

"Well, I am the guest of honor, and I'll have the purple tail." Gilda grabbed it before Rarity can.

"Yeah, Gilda should definitely go first. Let's get you blindfolded." Pinkie said and Spike came over to Gilda with a blindfold in his claw. Zach had a very angry look on his face with his teeth showing how enraged she is with Gilda.

"She is really getting on my nerves. When is she going to break?" Zach said through his teeth without opening his mouth to Pinkie.

"Be patient, she is near the point of no return. I can smell it." Pinkie said with a dominant smile and approached Gilda while Spike blindfolds her.

"Hey what- ugh- what are you doing? Rrrah." Gilda said in an irritated tone and was pulled by Pinkie and spinned her rapidly.

"We're spinning you around and around and then you can pin the tail on the pony. Now just walk straight ahead and pin the tail." Pinkie led Gilda to the poster right in front of her.

"[mockingly] Now just walk straight ahead and pin the tail. Hmph, yeah, right. This is another prank, isn't it? I'm going this way." Gilda walked the opposite direction.

"Wait. The poster is this-" Pinkie tried to warn her but it was too late as Gilda slipped on a glob of frosting and slid into the kitchen and crashed. When she came out the tail appeared on her beak like a mustache.

"Uh, Gilda? You pinned the tail on the wrong end." Pinkie pointed out and the everypony started laughing again. Gilda then made an outraged roar and lost it.

"This is your idea of a good time? I've never met a lamer bunch of dweebs in all my life. And Pinkie Pie, you! You are queen lame-o with your weak little party pranks. Did you really think you could make me lose my cool? Well, Dash and I have ten times as much cool as the rest of you put together. Come on Dash, we're bailing on this pathetic scene." Gilda said to Dash and walked for the door. Dash widened her eyes in disbelief but changed in anger knowing who Gilda really is.

"Come on Rainbow Dash. I said, we're leaving." Gilda repeated more forcefully.

"You know Gilda, I was the one who set up all those weak pranks at this party." Dash announced.

"[gasp] What?" Gilda said in surprise. Zach was too in shock. He was seeing Dash standing up not only for her real friends but to her to long time childhood friend. She was lying to her about the pranks for Zach and Pinkie. Gilda then looked at Pinkie in confusion.

"Ooh." Pinkie gasped quietly.

"So I guess I'm queen lame-o." Dash scolded.

"Come on, Dash, you're joshing me." Gilda said in denial not accepting what she is saying.

"They weren't all meant for you specifically, it was just dumb luck that you set them all off." Dash explained.

"I shoulda known, that dribble cup had Rainbow Dash written all over it." Pinke said and Zach hit her with his elbo and produced a soft ow from her.

"No way. It was Pinkie Pie, she set up this party to trip me up, to make a fool of me." Gilda accused.

"Me? I threw this party to improve your attitude. I thought a good party might turn that frown upside down." Pinkie said to her with a sad look and twisted her head upside down to emphasize her point.

"And you sure didn't need any help making a fool of yourself. You know, this is not how I thought my old friends would treat my new friends. If being cool is all you care about, maybe you should go find some new cool friends someplace else." Dash said to her.

"Rrgh. Yeah? Well you, you, you are such a, a flip-flop: cool one minute and lame the next." Gilda insulted her. Zach then had enough of Gilda's rashness and decided it was his turn to stand up for his friends and family.

"What do you know about cool?" Zach yelled at her and Gilda turned her attention at him.

"If you actually knew the definition of cool, then you would take the time and patience to know others much better. I don't care if you insult me, I've dealt with jerks like you, I can take it any day, but to treat my friends like dirt is unforgivable. You will never know what it is to have cool friends like mine, and I actually feel sorry for you." Zach pittied her angrily.

"I don't need your lame pity." Gilda came to Zach with her head locked to his pushing him back and looking eye to eye.

"Too bad, you're getting it. And if you ever treat my friends like what you did to Pinkie and Fluttershy, I WILL become your worst nightmare." Zach assured her and pushed his head back into her.

"Whatever, dweeb. As for you Rainbow Dash, when you decide not to be lame anymore, gimme a call." Gilda said as she left and slammed the door leaving with a bird shriek.

"Not cool." Dash said in an unaccepting tone.

"Wow, talk about a party pooper." Spike pointed out. The whole room began agreeing on how innappropriate Gilda's behavior was.

"I'm sorry everypony, for bringing Gilda here. I didn't know how rude she was. And Pinkie Pie, I'm really sorry she ruined that awesome party you put on for her." Dash apologized.

"Hey, if you want to hang out with party poopers, that's your business." Pinkie assured.

"I'd rather hang out with you. No hard feelings?" Dash held out her hoof.

"No hard feelings." Pinkie accepted and went to shake her hoof. As they connect a shock hits them both and the group began laughing. The two revealed their hooves to show buzzers on both of them.

"Hey Pinkie. Sorry I accused you of misjudging Gilda. Looks likes I'm the one who misjudged you." Twilight apologized shamefully.

"It's okay Twilight, even you can't be a super smart smarty smart-pants all the time. Come on everypony, there's still a whole lotta party to finish." Pinkie announced and the crowd started cheering.

"Hey Dash." Zach came over to Dash.

"Yes, Zach?" Dash said politely.

"Why did you do that? You lied about setting up those pranks when it was me and Pinkie Pie who did it." Zach asked curiously.

"Hey, you guys are my friends. I couldn't let that snotty bird brain pick on you all. Besides, how the way she acted, I don't think I want to be friends with anymore." Dash said.

"Thanks Dash. That's why you're the Element of Loyalt after all." Zach said with a grin which Dash returned and met up with their friends to join the party.

"Dearest Princess Celestia,

Today I learned that it's hard to accept when somepony you like wants to spend time with somepony who's not so nice. Though it's impossible to control who your friends hang out with, it is possible to control your own behavior. Just continue to be a good friend. In the end, the difference between a false friend and the one who is true will surely come to light." Twilight wrote down on a letter for the princess.

"I've also learned that there will be others out there who will be very unpleasent to be around with. They may even be a hostile presence to your friends. But when that happens, there will be others who will stand up for you, like how the loyal Rainbow Dash did today. So did me and Pinkie Pie if I do say so myself without gloating." Zach added in his experience in the letter.

"Your faithful students,

Zachary Lanson and Twilight Sparkle." Zach finished.

"Ooh, hey, I have a great idea on what to send to the princess." Zach said with a planning smile.

"And what's that?" Twilight happily asked. Zach then revealed a bottle of dissapearing ink with a sly smile on his face.

"Zach!" Twilight said with a narrow look.

"Come on, Twilight. Even those of royalalty should have a good pranking once in a while. Besides, she's our teacher, she's not going to punish us for one silly little joke." Zach assured her.

"Well, it was acutally pretty funny on how Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie did it to me. What the hay?" Twilight accepted and wrapped the ink on the note and orders Spike to send it which he so happily did. At Canterlot the princess recieved the letter while in her room and read their report. She then used the ink the two sent to write them a letter back.

"Dear Zachary Lanson and Twilight Sparkle, My most faithful students-" Princess Celestia wrote down on her scroll but surprisingly discovered that the ink mysteriously vanished. She looks at the bottle closely and realizes what it actually was.

"Oh, huh, wrong ink. [sigh] [chuckles]" Celestia laughed and dropped the silly act her students did and resumed writing back her letter on how proud she was on one of many discoveries they will soon encounter about life and friendship.
