"I'm still here, after all these years, checkin' my email." Rainbow sang while bringing up her e-mail. She then goes up in a high-pitched voice, "Checkin' my email!"
Subject: Bed-time Stories
Hello Rainbow Dash,
I have trouble falling asleep lately. I was wondering: can you tell me a bedtime story?
Good Night.
- Lilo Ponylekai
Koller, TX
Rainbow said the last part as 'Killer Taxes' and some other stuff. She roll her eyes, the mare can't believe what she herself is being asked to do.
"Lilo, huh," Rainbow ask while shaking her head repeatedly. "Well, I got some news for you, kid...I AM NOT YOUR STINKING FOALSITTER, ALL RIGHT; or your dad or your dad-asitter. Hate to be harsh but it's the only way to get the message across."
Rainbow clears the screen as she continues, "However, I am the foalsitter of sorts to Scootaloo; she has been having problems falling asleep ever since she saw that shock-you-mentary program of gingitivitis."
We see Scootaloo at her home with the lights off. The TV is playing as the filly looks scared. A stallion on TV announces, "In the final stages, the gums take on the appearance and taste of chocolate pudding."
"No, no, no..." Scootaloo whimpers in fear while hiding under the pillows.
Rainbow types back on her computer while continuing, "We all have to cook up one elaborate go to sleep program for Scoots that I believe it's officially reached the status of weirdness." We see the Certificate of Weirdness.
CERTIFICATE OF WEIRDNESS
This paper right here seriously signified that getting Scootaloo to go to sleep big time has hereby achieved WERIDNESS STATUS. Come on; let it be known from the valleys and to the hills of Equestria.
Or maybe just the dells.
G.L. Weirdness.
"It all begins by making sure that she has her security...err item thing. A grodolated weird sponge..." We see some orange sponge with a badly drawn face that is covered in bandages. Rainbow continues, "...which is covered in Band-Aids that she refers to as 'The Fonz' for some affectionately reason. We see the words 'The Fonz' at the bottom.
Back at the computer, Rainbow continues to type as she continues, "Next off we prepared one of Scootaloo's favorite bedtime snacks. It involves a tall of a glass of something that she calls 'SWEET'."
We see a blue screen that has the words 'oh my, SWEET' written in the background. A glass of milk appears with a chime as Rainbow continues, "It involves skim milk..." A pile of gummy bears is shown. "...gummy bears..." The bears are put into the milk as a circle labeled 'Pure Genius' is seen, "...pure genius!"
In Scootaloo's bedroom at wherever she lives, the filly is in bed, carrying the Fonz and holding a glass of Sweet. Rainbow's voice continues, "So once Scootaloo is safely cuddled with the Fonz and his glass of Sweet..." The mare shows up. "...it's time for the bedtime story thing to begin."
"All right, Scootaloo; are you ready for tonight's installment of..." Rainbow begins to say with a smile. We see a thought bubble coming from Scootaloo that takes over the screen. In a style of Activated by Spike, the words 'Scootaloo's Scootventures in Moses MuleneLand' appear. Rainbow speaks in a voice from Activated by Spike, "Scootaloo's Scootventures in Moses MuleneLand! When we last left our heroes..."
We see Scootaloo and a pair of mule legs with long shoes and big shoes appearing, both of them are standing behind a podium with Mt. Coltmore nearby. Rainbow's voice continues, "...they have won a debate against the big minds of Mt. Coltmore...and re-celebrating..." We now see Scootaloo with some weird and Mose Mulene's legs near a crude rack of items with the words 'le new style' written in the background. "...by shopping for some new wr...wristbands, right."
Scootaloo smiles while pointing to one of th items in the racks, saying, "Moses, I want this one!"
Although we can only see his legs, Moses Mulene can be seen talking when his sock on the left moves up and down, "Dang, Scoots, you look awesome with a pair of monster truck tires!" The said items appear on Scootaloo. "Oh yeah, we're talking; Uh oh, Maggot Mare!"
At a sunset view, we see something appearing over the horizon. Upon getting closer, we see that it has a pink body, claws instead of a head, seemingly boneless forelegs and no hooves at all.
Maggot Mare flailing his floppy arm while asking, "Hey, ponies, all right if I come over to play some video games with y'all?'
Scootaloo held a knife while she and Moses snaps at the same time, "Hay no!"
We see that Maggot Mare is...small compared to Moses, all of them are on a field for football. The mule kicks the tiny creep away and towards the top of the screen. Once Maggot Mare disappears, a small upside mushroom cloud appears.
In a trophy room that has a banner that is labeled 'HALL OF AWESOME FAME', Moses Mulene spoke to Scootaloo, "Good work, little mare! Wanna go play some video games?"
"Oh yeah! That would be 20% awesome!" Scootaloo exclaims as her right arm, becoming humanoid, gives her friend the thumbs-up.
"All right; I get first game!"
"So do I!"
Scootaloo laughs as her arm somehow become detach from her body. Don't ask. We now see a picture of a wristwatch that flashes a line art description of the filly in red LEDS that has the words 'TIME NEXT' in a banner above it.
"Next time on 'Scootaloo's Scootventures in Moses MuleneLand'," Rainbow's Activated by Spike voice said.
We see a room with that banner that said 'ALL OF PONY GAMES' that shows Scootaloo and Mules holding controllers for a video game. We see that Mules himself has a large gold ring on his right upper foreleg.
"The Adventures of Lolo, honestly," Moses ask Scootaloo in disbelief. "Better hope you s-s-s-save that receipt!"
Back in reality, Rainbow types on her computer as she continues, "After getting tired of making up horse crap about Scootaloo and Moses Mulene, Derpy and I get out her favorite lullably."
We see Derpy revving up a chainsaw while Rainbow yells to Scootaloo over the chainsaw, doing the lullaby, "BRAN MUFFINS! WHERE ARE YOU STUPID BRAN MUFFINS?! TRY HARDER TO BE A BRAN MUFFIN!"
Scootaloo sighs happily while closing her eyes before smiling. The filly enjoyed that.
"And in the event of nothing happening to help Scootaloo sleep, we call upon our awesome friends: 2 or 3 knockout bombs." Rainbow types in her computer with a smile.
Two cans of 'KNOCKOUT KILLA! (FILLY SAFE)' in Scootaloo's bed, Rainbow held a third while saying, "Well, sleep tight, sleeping filly."
Rainbow quickly drops the third can into Scootaloo's bed before dropping a huge metal box all over her. The mare ducks for cover as a small explosion is seen barely inside the thing. Scootaloo sighs once more inside the metal box.
"So how are her vitals doing?" Rainbow calls over to Derpy who is wearing scrubs and a surgical mask checking out a heart monitor.
After a while of a straight line, it blips once. Derpy calls out happily, "Yeah! We got a pulse!"
"Good, that's a good sign!"
Rainbow types in on her computer, saying, "Hopefully if we're lucky, Scootaloo will be alive the next morning to fix us one big pitcher of Sweet. I ain't kidding, pal. That stuff is G-E-W-D, gewd. I just hope you would be able to get a wicked contact off of Scootaloo's bedtime story, Lilo...or get some fumes from those knock out bombs...Either way..." The screen dims as she continues, "You should be falling unconsciousness..."
The sound slows and descends as if a tape recorder is slowing down. Rainbow finish, "...right about...now."
The paper comes down as the chapter/e-mail comes to an end. We see a 'real-life' glass of Sweet.
Back in a familiar video game room, Scootaloo and Moses Mulene is playing more video games, the mule remarks, "Bayou Filly? I really hope you saved the receipt!"
The End
