Chapter 25
Saturday, October 10
Rainbow: "UGH! WHERE IS TWILIGHT?!" Rainbow Dash complained irritably.
Applejack stroked her chin and pondered. "That's a mighty good question. Anybody seen her lately?" Applejack asked the group to which the majority shook their heads.
Rarity took out her phone. "Well, from what I hear Twilight is going to be a little late. She says that she has a surprise for us."
Pinkie Pie: "A SURPIRSE?! Ooh, ooh I love surprises! Is it-is it a puppy?! A birthday cake?! A birthday cake that looks like a puppy?! The new Tom Cruise standee?! A waffle maker?! EEEK! Maybe it's a GROUP HUG! I LOVE GROUP HUGS-
Vinyl Scratch clamped over her mouth to make her stop but to no avail.
Pinkie Pie: "Mmph! Mhmmphmph?! Mmph mmphm mmph?! MMMMMMMMMMMMMMPPPH!"
Rarity checked her texts. "I'm not too sure. Twilight just sent me a text of some designs for new wrestling attire to create for this week's show."
Vinyl: "Twilight also told me to make a new entrance theme." Vinyl Scratch chimed in as she continued to keep Pinkie Pie from talking up a tornado.
Octavia: "By the sound of things I'd say that we were getting a new member to join CCPW…"
Lyra: "Seriously?! YAY!" Lyra cheered.
Bon Bon raised an eyebrow. "But I thought we WEREN'T supposed to tell anyone about CCPW all willy-nilly?"
Rarity: "To be honest I'm not sure…"
Applejack: "Ah'd say there's a good chance of that happenin', but we otta wait and see fer ourselves." Applejack said as she leaned against the wall.
Vinyl Scratch removed her hand from Pinkie's mouth. "Okay…"
Everyone: "NOOOOOOOOOOO!"
It was another glorious Saturday for the diva's of CCPW as they wait for their friend, Twilight Sparkle, and her mysterious surprise. They were all cramped together in the CCPW meeting office in the CCPW building. To be fair the office still had plenty of room to walk around, but it was still kinda cramped if you could feel the other person breathing on your neck. They WOULD have made more renovations for a bigger office if it were not for the fact that they couldn't tell anyone about the existence of CCPW. They didn't have any money anyway, so that hope was dashed. They were all relieved as Twilight Sparkle came through the door.
Pinkie Pie gasped and launched herself at the wide-eyed Twilight and tackled her to the ground in a hug.
Twilight: "Pinkie?! What on earth are you
Pinkie: "Oh thank you Twilight! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You're the bestest friend ever!" Pinkie Pie then tuned her head to the rest of the group. "Okay everybody! GROUP HUG!"
Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy went over to pry Pinkie Pie off of Twilight.
Rainbow Dash: "Pinkie Pie, Twilight isn't giving us a group hug."
Pinkie Pie frowned and hung her head down. "Oh…"
Fluttershy smiled softly and opened her arms. "Um…you can hug me Pinkie Pie-" Fluttershy was interrupted by Pinkie Pie tackling Fluttershy to the ground in an embrace. Meanwhile Applejack helped Twilight up off the ground.
Applejack: "Alright, Twilight. Now what's all this about?"
Twilight scratched the back of her head. "Well…we I KINDA invited a new recruit-
Rainbow: "WITHOUT telling us?! Aren't we supposed to, oh I don't know, talk about this first?!" Rainbow Dash said with her hands on her hips.
Twilight held up her hands. "I know, I know! I'm sorry, it's just that I kinda had to make a split-second decision and I didn't have time to alert you about it!" Twilight quickly explained.
Fluttershy: "But you had all week to tell us. How come you didn't?"
Twilight rubbed her arm and looked away. "Because…I wasn't sure how you would react…"
Rarity walked up and placed a hand on Twilight's shoulder. "Twilight, darling, you don't have to be afraid. I'm sure you made a rational decision inviting this person to join us." Rarity soothed.
Bon Bon: "Who IS this person you brought here anyways?"
Twilight bit her lip nervously. "She's at the commentator's table…"
Applejack straightened her hat. "Whelp…Ah say we welcome the newbie!" Applejack said as she and everybody else started to leave for the door. However, they were blocked by Twilight.
Twilight: "I'll let you meet her…but I don't want you all to…freak out. Okay?"
Rarity flipped her hair. "Don't fret darling, what would we POSSIBLY see that would make us 'freak out'?"
Twilight: "…well…okay…"
Twilight Sparkle then leads the members of CCPW through the locker room hallway and out of the curtain into the incredibly large room where the ring was held. The group followed Twilight around the other side of the ring where they met the surprise recruit. They all went bug-eyed as they saw Sunset Shimmer sitting at the bell's side of the commentator's table twiddling her thumbs nervously. Sunset Shimmer looked up and saw all of the astonished expressions pointed her way. Sunset Shimmer smiled nervously as she got up from the chair and went to stand next to Twilight in front of the group who were still remaining silent. There was an uncomforting silence for a while as their expressions of shock and disbelief slowly turned into angry glares at both Twilight and Sunset Shimmer. Sunset Shimmer was the first one to speak.
Sunset: "Uh…hey you guys-
Rainbow: "WHAT THE HELL, TWILIGHT?!"
The next few minutes were mostly filled with much angry yelling and rioting as the group took out their rage on the two. Sunset Shimmer immediately took a few steps behind Twilight.
Applejack: "What in tarnation is that little varmint doin' here, Twi?!"
Pinkie: "Hi Sunset!
Rarity: "I agree, Twilight! Why would you let this…this RUFFIAN Sunset Shimmer come here?!"
Pinkie: "Hi Sunset!"
Lyra: "Are you HIGH?! Do you NOT know who she is?!"
Sunset Shimmer's nervous smile quickly vanished as all of them began to rage at her. Twilight stepped between Sunset Shimmer and the group to block each other off.
Twilight: "Look! We all know what Sunset Shimmer was like before, but she's changed! She's honestly sorry for all of the things she did and has reconciled!"
Vinyl: "BULL! She's a fucking ass bitch!" Vinyl Scratch yelled.
Octavia leered at Twilight. "And why are you even bothering to defend her?! What's she done to prove her worth?!"
Pinkie Pie then came out of nowhere and embraced Sunset Shimmer in a hug. "Hi Sunset!"
Sunset Shimmer yelled in surprise before unintentionally shoving Pinkie Pie violently off of her and to the floor. Pinkie Pie looked up at Sunset Shimmer with a hurt expression to which Sunset Shimmer immediately felt bad for doing so.
Sunset: "Oh! I'm SO so-
Sunset Shimmer was cut off by the sight of Rainbow Dash walking angrily towards her with both fists balled. Sunset Shimmer took a step back away from her. Rainbow Dash was about to proceed to smash Sunset's face in but was quickly held back by Applejack, Octavia, and Fluttershy.
Rainbow: "Let me go so I can pound her!" Rainbow Dash ordered as she tried to break free.
Applejack: "Hold yer horses there, Rainbow! She ain't worth it!"
Fluttershy: "Please stop, Rainbow Dash! Let's not fight!" Fluttershy pleaded.
Rainbow Dash paid no attention to them as she was still fuming over what Sunset Shimmer had just did to Pinkie Pie. "What're you doing here, huh Sunset?! You wanna pick a fight with me?! Well you got one!"
Sunset Shimmer placed her hands on her chest. "Wait, no! I didn't mean to-
Twilight: "QUIET!" Twilight yelled as she got in between the two. Twilight out her hand to her chest and inhaled before letting arm and hand extend in front of her before exhaling. "I know what Sunset shimmer did. She used to be mean, selfish, and uncaring of anyone but herself. But that's in the past. She's sought out help herself and has turned over a new leaf. To be honest I wasn't even SURE she was telling the truth or not. Admittedly I'm still not one hundred percent. But I'm at least willing to give her a chance."
Sunset Shimmer stood up tall and walked from behind Twilight to face the leering group herself.
Sunset: "Twilight's right. I DID do some horrible things-
Rarity: "Horrible is the understatement of the year! You made me look like a fool at the last Spring Fling Pageant when you poured mustard on my hair and took a few pictures before forwarding them throughout the school!" Rarity accused as she brushed her hair and shuttered trying to suppress the memories of humiliation.
Applejack: "Darn tootin'! And don't y'all think Ah forgot how ya took a picture of me wearin' one a Rarity's dresses and blackmailed me fer money till ya posted it online anyway! Ah was doin' it to help out Rarity, not because Ah actually LIKED all that froufrou gunk!"
Vinyl: "You stole my last MP3 player and sold it on Ebay!"
Lyra: "You mocked me for being homo!"
Bon Bon: "Me too…EXCEPT YOU ALSO CALLED ME FAT!"
Sunset Shimmer nodded her head sadly. "I know, I remember doing those things and I regretted every one of them. You all didn't deserve my abuse." -Sunset Shimmer looked over at Fluttershy- "Especially not you, Fluttershy." Sunset Shimmer said in a woeful tone.
Rainbow Dash immediately got in front of Fluttershy as a way of protecting her from Sunset Shimmer's gaze. Fluttershy didn't feel this was necessary but by the way things were going it was probably best to remain out of sight.
Sunset Shimmer continued regardless. "I don't blame Twilight for still not trusting me. I wouldn't either. I know I've done some horrible things in the past. A LOT of horrible things. Like what happened to that girl not too long ago...or what ALMOST happened...because of me. I haven't seen her since then but I have HONEST TO GOD been trying to make it up to her. I sought out therapy and now I want to turn my life around for the better. I mean you could check with my therapist I haven't threatened, beat up, or blackmailed anyone in the past two months! I swear!"
Everyone only looked at her with silent leers of disgust. Only Rainbow Dash spoke up.
Rainbow: "And what makes you think we should trust YOU?!" Rainbow Dash asked with her arms crossed.
Sunset Shimmer sighed and got to her knees. "I don't know. I don't know why I was expecting you to trust me. And I don't blame you for it at all. All I'm looking for is a chance." -Sunset Shimmer looks up at the faces of everyone around her- "I know I don't deserve it…but please…give me a chance…" Sunset Shimmer finished as she closed her eyes and hung her head.
Everything went silent. The group looked down at Sunset Shimmer and at each other processing Sunset Shimmer's plea. Sunset Shimmer could feel a lump in her throat and the sweat dripping off of her brow as they made their judgment. Sunset Shimmer tried to push out the despairing possibility of them rejecting her like everyone else did but couldn't help but let her mind wander to the worst possible case scenario: Sunset Shimmer not getting a chance to live up to her indemnification and have to go one alone once again. Twilight, meanwhile, was watching the scene fold out in front of her with unease. After a few more minutes of incredibly strained silence, Rarity spoke up.
Rarity: "Is this true?" Rarity inquired.
Sunset Shimmer looked up at Rarity and nodded.
Rarity looked over to Twilight and back at Sunset Shimmer and sighed. "I…suppose…it's only fair to give her…a chance." Rarity said with a slightly disinclined sound in her voice. Regardless Sunset Shimmer and Twilight both lit up a little.
Applejack bit her lower lip and shielded her eyes under the front of her Stetson hat. "Ah still don't trust y'all fer a can a beans…but Ah guess you had paid yer debts so…Ah guess we can give you a shot."
Octavia raised an eyebrow. "I still think you're complete filth…but I suppose I should at least pity you."
Vinyl Scratch cooled her head and finally shrugged. "Eh. I guess I'm cool with it. I guess…"
Lyra and Bon Bon didn't say anything. They continued to leer at Sunset Shimmer. They obviously didn't want here at CCPW, but they must have at least SLIGHTLY showed mercy and nodded their heads. But only because everyone else was slightly tolerant. That left only Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie…who apparently was humming to herself on the floor as she looked at the ceiling so they took that as a yes. Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy didn't say anything; Fluttershy walked out from behind Rainbow Dash and went to merge in with the rest of the other girls while Rainbow Dash continued to glare at Sunset Shimmer.
Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes. "…whatever."
Twilight Sparkle smiled and let out a breath of relief along with Sunset Shimmer who did the same thing. Twilight went over to Sunset and helped her back up to her feet before turning to the rest of the group.
Twilight: " *Ahem* well now that that's out of the way what's say we all go to the office and being the meeting for this week's show, huh?! What do ya say?!" Twilight offered cheerfully to which everyone only nodded in agreement.
Twilight: "But first, who wants to show Sunset Shimmer around?" Twilight asked to which Sunset Shimmer put on her best smile.
Everyone only stared blankly at Sunset Shimmer before all of them turned to leave simultaneously to the office for the meeting without uttering a word. Sunset Shimmer's smile dropped and so did her head. Twilight put a hand on her shoulder.
Twilight: "Don't worry Sunset, they'll warm up to you."
Sunset Shimmer smiled slightly. "Thanks Twilight…"
Twilight smiled. "C'mon. I'll show you around."
Twilight and Sunset Shimmer then went to take a quick tour of the CCPW building before heading back to the office to start the meeting.
Thirty minutes later…
Twilight: "The meeting for the fifth show off CCPW is now called to order!" Twilight announced.
Twilight was sitting in the big chair behind the desk with a stack of papers in front of her along with the bingo cage on the desk. Everyone else was either still sitting in chairs or was standing, however they all still managed to keep at least a one chair distance away from Sunset Shimmer who was sitting front row. Everyone gave their attention to Twilight while, yet again, Vinyl Scratch was listening to her music and rocking her head. Octavia snatched it off of her head once again and did her best to not fling them against the wall.
Twilight smiled. "Great! Now like last week we should start off with the proper welcome of our newest contender: Sunset Shimmer. So let's give her a hand to feel welcome!" Twilight said as she began to clap only to find everyone in dead silence and not moving an inch with the exception of Pinkie Pie.
Pinkie: "Sunset Shimmer! Yay! Whooohooo! Football!" Pinkie Pie clapped as she got out a kazoo and started to blow on it much to everyone's annoyance.
Twilight looked around and let out a nervous chuckle before continuing. "Well…Sunset Shimmer has been informed of all of the rules and regulations of CCPW via email-
Lyra snorted to which Bon Bon chuckled.
Twilight gave the couple a look before moving on. "Anyway…since Sunset Shimmer has been informed and 'properly introduced' we should be moving on to the next order of business which so happens to be the roster and rankings update for this week. Now I would like all of you to get a good look as you pass it around…" Twilight said as she produced a piece of computer paper and handed it to Sunset Shimmer.

Sunset Shimmer looked over the paper that had been given to her with keen interest. She noticed that she was ranked 10 which she knew was due to her just starting out at CCPW. Sunset Shimmer couldn't help but chuckle a little bit at a few of the names on here. She still wasn't quite used to the idea of Fluttershy wanting to wrestle. Quite comical to her, actually. But by Fluttershy's ranking she wasn't really too good at it to begin with.
Lyra: "I'LL take that, thank you!" Lyra said as she snatched the paper out of Sunset Shimmer's hands.
Sunset Shimmer leered over at Lyra who didn't give a second glance at her.
Sunset: "Pff! You're welcome…" Sunset Shimmer mumbled to herself as she rested her chin on her hand.
Lyra went over to Rarity and shoved the paper in her face. "Hey, Rarity? Guess who's hot and who's not! And by that I mean who's at rank 2 and who's in dead last!" Lyra boasted as she did a little dance with her upper body before walking away back to her Bon Bon.
Rarity's eye twitched but she exhaled and retained her composure. Rarity looked over the paper along with Fluttershy who was disappointed to see that she was now ant rank 8 instead of 3.
Rarity: "Don't be so hard on yourself, Fluttershy. At least you're not at the bottom of the barrel." Rarity said with a sigh as she looked at her rank number 9.
Fluttershy: "Oh Rarity, I'm sure you'll do better next time." Fluttershy assured as she took the paper and handed it over to Octavia.
Octavia looked over the ranking list and saw that the effects of Rookie's Perk is still at its prime with Lyra now being the number 2 ranked wrestler in CCPW. Octavia then saw her name below Lyra as rank 3. To be fair it was only a downgrade one ranking position. It could be worse.
Applejack put an arm around Octavia and smirked. "Howdy, Miss Octavia!"
Octavia sighed. It just got worse. Octavia eyed Applejack but didn't turn her head. "Come here to gloat, are we?"
Applejack tapped her chin. "Ah thought about it but…nah. Y'all were pretty darn good in the ring with me last week. Y'all are as stubborn as a bull tryin' to mow down a red, bell pepper stand at a county fair! Now, I'm not sayin ah was losin'. Ah knew ah'd win…but ya really made me work fer it."
Octavia: "Hmph! Well, don't think you are so safe. Those who let their guard down are prone to failure. That last match of ours was quite simply a fluke. I will not be holding back next time we face each other, Applejack, and I intend to make it hurt." Octavia sternly warned.
Applejack chuckled as she took the paper out of Octavia's hands. "Yeah, yeah well y'all just keep believin' that. And maybe yer pet poodle will come back from the banana ocean."
Octavia turned to look at Applejack with a bewildered expression but Applejack had already walked away to talk with Pinkie Pie. What the heck she was talking about she would never know. Octavia just went back to waiting for the matchups to be decided. Meanwhile, Applejack gave the rankings list to Pinkie Pie who then passed it on to Vinyl Scratch who passed it on to Rainbow Dash who gave it back to Twilight who took it and placed it back on the desk before continuing.
Twilight: "All right girls, may I please have your attention, please?!" Twilight asked.
Everybody returned to their seats and previous spots to give their full attention to Twilight once more.
Twilight: "Thank you. Now we come to the next order of business, once again being the matchups for this show." Twilight looked over at Sunset Shimmer. "Would you like to go first Sunse-
Rainbow Dash: "Actually…I would like to go first!" Rainbow Dash said as she walked up to the bingo cage.
Sunset Shimmer was taken aback by this but decided to keep her mouth shut. She wanted to choose her battles wisely. But unfortunately she wasn't choosing her battle. Rainbow Dash was.
Rainbow Dash turned to face the group, but eyed Sunset Shimmer. "Sunset Shimmer, I challenge you to a handicap match! You vs. me and another member of CCPW!" Rainbow Dash announced much to everyone's surprise. Sunset Shimmer just sat there and blinked for a moment before responding.
Sunset: "Uh…"
Twilight: "Rainbow Dash, what are you doing?" Twilight asked with slight discomfort of the situation.
Rainbow Dash turned her neck slightly and looked at Twilight through the corner of her eye. "What does it look like I'm doing?! I'm challenging Sunset Shimmer to a match. What, I'm not allowed to do that?!"
Twilight's furrowed her eyebrows. "Yes, you are allowed to do that but this is Sunset Shimmer's debut match and having her face two people at once isn't fair!" Twilight argued.
Rainbow Dash turned to Twilight and scoffed. "Well, I won't believe anything Sunset Shimmer says until she EARNS our trust! You think her just simply apologizing for what she did is gonna make things better?! Get real Twilight!"
Twilight stood abruptly from her seat. "And what is this going to prove?! You KNOW this isn't fair to Sunset Shimmer after all she's went through! She meant everything she had just said! She isn't our enemy anymore!"
Rainbow Dash: "If Sunset Shimmer REALLY wants to show us she's changed then she shouldn't have any problem PROVING it by accepting this challenge! And YEAH it's unfair, but so was everything else she did in the past! Everything she has done has ALWAYS been unfair! Was it fair what she did to our school?! Was it fair what she did to the other students?! Was it fair what she did to Fluttershy?! Was it fair what she did to that girl who nearly KILLED HERSELF?! Well?! Was it?!"
Twilight: "No! No it wasn't, but if we can see past that-
Sunset: "NO!"
All of them looked to see Sunset Shimmer standing up from her chair with a determined look on her face. The room was quiet. The room had been quiet for quite a while now what with the tense atmosphere engulfing it. However, the silence became more noticeable to them after Sunset Shimmer's sudden outburst which seemed to stop everything for a moment. After a few seconds, Sunset Shimmer looked over at Twilight.
Sunset: "No….she's right, Twilight." Sunset Shimmer walked up to Rainbow Dash before continuing. "I accept your challenge."
Twilight gapped. "But, Sunset-
Sunset Shimmer put up her hand to interrupt. "I want to her, and everyone, to believe me. To know I'm not that same person anymore. *sigh* I know I have a lot of terrible deeds to make up for…but I'm willing to accept even the slightest chance to earn trust. I know I won't get it right away but I'm willing to start working for it anytime. So yes, Rainbow Dash, I accept your challenge."
Everybody exchanged glances while Sunset Shimmer and Rainbow Dash stared each other down. Sunset then looked over at Twilight.
Sunset: "It's okay, Twilight. Really." Sunset assured.
Twilight was about to speak but stopped herself. "*sigh*….okay Sunset."
Sunset Shimmer turns her attention back to Rainbow Dash. "So...who's your partner going to be?" Sunset Shimmer asks with a serious tone.
Rainbow Dash: "After everybody else gets matched up there will be one without a match. That'll be my partner." Rainbow Dash looked over her shoulder at Twilight. "I also want this match to be the main event. That 'fair' enough?"
Twilight sighed and nodded. "Sure…"
Rainbow Dash turned back to Sunset Shimmer. "It's settled then."
Sunset Shimmer: "I guess it is…but you should know I'm not going to hold anything back, so I'd like to wish you good luck." Sunset Shimmer said as she offered Rainbow a handshake.
Rainbow Dash looked at the hand for a moment and smirked slightly before looking up at Sunset Shimmer and quickly turning away from her to walk back to her seat without another word. Rainbow Dash then crossed her legs and put her hands on the back of her head before closing her eyes to sleep through the rest of the meeting. Sunset Shimmer sighed before sitting back in her seat. Everything was quite for a moment until, as you would expect, Pinkie Pie.
Pinkie Pie: "Me next! Me next!" Pinkie Pie volunteered as she skipped up to the desk and the bingo cage. "I KNOW I'm going to get a Bingo this time!" Pinkie Pie began to turn the lever. Pinkie Pie squeezed her eyes shut and prayed for a bingo once more as the cage released the ball onto the rail where it rolled into the bar. Pinkie Pie snatched the ball and took a look at the name.
Fluttershy
Pinkie Pie frowned. "Shoot! I thought I was going to get a Bingo this time! Oh well…I guess Fluttershy will have to do." Pinkie Pie said with a sad voice. Fluttershy, however, looked up at Pinkie Pie in surprise.
Fluttershy: "W-What?! Again?! But I thought we already had a match!" Fluttershy exclaimed softly.
Twilight: "She drew your name again, so I guess that means Pinkie's going to be getting a rematch with you." Twilight logically reasoned.
Fluttershy gapped. "B-But I-
Pinkie: "Whoa! That is WAY SUPER better than a Bingo! Well, kinda but it's not as Bingo-y. Whatever, as long as there aren't any more scary bats with ties we're going to have SO MUCH FUN! Right, Fluttershy?! " Pinkie Pie asked Fluttershy enthusiastically as she jumped over to Fluttershy and playfully put her in a headlock.
Fluttershy gagged for a second before answering. "Uh…sure Pinkie-
Pinkie Pie tightened the headlock. "And by fun I mean you're going DOWN this time, Fluttershy!" Pinkie Pie said menacingly before letting out a fit of giggles and releasing her from the headlock. "And it's wrestling so we can both have fun AND I can win at the same time! O! M! G! This is like a win-win except I'm the only winner!"
Fluttershy rubbed her neck nervously. Will she be able to beat Pinkie Pie again? She REALLY doesn't like to use *Obedience Training* what with all of the trouble it seemed to cause. Guess she'll have to find another way.
Twilight: "So when would you two like to have your match?" Twilight asked Fluttershy.
Fluttershy stroked her hair. "Well...I guess we could be next to last-
Pinkie: "Let's go first!"
Twilight: "Okay it seems Pinkie Pie wants you to go first. What do you say, Fluttershy?"
Fluttershy looked over to Pinkie Pie who was still obliviously smiling to which Fluttershy couldn't help but sigh. "I guess so…"
Twilight: "Okay then, so far it looks like we have the main event, Fluttershy vs. Pinkie Pie, Lyra vs. Rarity…"
Lyra looked up. "Wait! Wait, wait, wait, what?! What are you talking about? I haven't even rolled yet." Lyra asked who was at a loss.
Twilight: "You didn't know? Rarity challenged you to a rematch."
Lyra: "What?! When?!"
Rarity: "Not too long ago, actually. I sent you an email yesterday." Rarity stated with crossed arms.
Twilight: "How come you didn't look at it?" Twilight asked with curiosity.
Lyra and Bon Bon both exchanged quick glances and blushed.
*Flashback: last night*
*Thump!…Thump!…Thump!*
Bon Bon: "Oh, Lyra! I love you so much! Oooooooooh….! Mmmmmmm…!"
*THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!*
*Flashback ends*
Lyra: "I-I…was studying…f-for my…uh…Human Anatomy class!" Lyra stammered.
Fluttershy raised an eyebrow. "On a Friday?"
Lyra: "Yeah on a Friday! What, I'm not allowed to study?! Anyway, what makes you think I even WANT to have a rematch with you?!" Lyra said to Rarity who didn't get up from her seat but did turn her head towards her.
Rarity: "Hmmm…well, let's start off with you beating me putting me at the bottom of the ranks. Also, we all know how you helped Bon Bon grab the ropes in her match against Twilight. So consider this your punishment, Lyra." Rarity said with a serious tone.
Lyra looked to Twilight for some support but she simply shrugged.
Lyra got up from her seat and narrowed her eyes at Rarity before pointing at her. "Oh yeah?! Well you're…you're…hair looks weird! Fine, I'll accept your challenge! I'm just going to beat you again anyway…" Lyra said as she crossed her arms in a huff and sat back down in her seat.
Rarity rolled her eyes. "Mmm-hmm."
Vinyl: "Guess I'm up next then." Vinyl Scratch said as she nonchalantly walks over to the bingo cage. Vinyl Scratch then spun the lever and rolled the cage for a while before a ball hit the rail and ran down into the bar. Vinyl Scratch took the ball and looked at the name on it.
Octavia
Vinyl Scratch's eyes widened behind her glasses as a small grin began to form from her lips.
Vinyl: "Oh-ho man! What are the odds I'd be getting your name again, Tavi?!" Vinyl Scratch chuckled.
Octavia raised an eyebrow. "That IS rather peculiar, I suppose. But I have no interest in fighting you Vinyl. I have some unfinished business with Applejack."
Vinyl Scratch smirked. "I thought you'd might say that…" Vinyl Scratch took out a tape recorder and held it out for Octavia to see.
Octavia: "And what is THAT supposed to be?" Octavia said in an uninterested tone.
Vinyl Scratch smiled wider. "Oh...well after AJ scrambled your brain you had some PRETTY interesting things to say."
Octavia's expression didn't change so Vinyl Scratch pressed the play button on the tape recorder.
**"….Vinyiiillll! Let me go, we need to save Mr. Mozart IXX from the banana ocean pirates!"**
Everybody in the room suddenly erupted into loud fits of laughter, much to Octavia's dismay. They couldn't help it though. It's not every day that Octavia had…"interesting things to say". She was actually loopy for quite a while before getting her senses back. But in that time Vinyl Scratch recorded everything she said within that time just for fun, but needless to say Octavia wasn't too pleased by this.
Octavia's eyes shot open. "Vinyl, what is the meaning of this?!" Octavia shouted.
Vinyl Scratch couldn't stop smiling. "Well you were pretty out of it for a while…so I thought I'd record you because I thought you would enjoy listening to yourself from a different angle."
Octavia leered at her best friend and got up from her seat. She then walked over to her and held out her hand.
Octavia: "Give it to me, Vinyl." Octavia ordered sternly.
Vinyl Scratch: "Not till you agree to have a match with me." Vinyl Scratch said in a mockingly playful tone.
Octavia: "Give it to me, Vinyl Scratch." Octavia ordered through clenched teeth.
Vinyl Scratch didn't instead she pressed the play button.
**"…Vinyl?...Can I go to Uranus when I turn into a big girl?"**
Everybody erupted in laughter again which Octavia blushed a dark crimson red and finally submitted. "FINE! I'll have a match with you just hand over that recorder!"
Vinyl Scratch, however, only stuck it in her back pocket. "You'll get it back after I beat you."
Octavia narrowed her eyes. "Correction: After I defeat YOU!"
Vinyl: "NO, because I'll win!"
Octavia: "No it shall be I!"
Vinyl: "Me!"
Octavia: "I!"
Vinyl: "Me!"
Octavia: "I!"
Applejack got in between the two and put a hand on each of their shoulders. "Why don't y'all wait till you tussle this out in the ring so we won't be here all day." Applejack said with a tired tone.
Vinyl Scratch and Octavia stopped and looked at each other before conceding.
Octavia: "Very well."
Vinyl: "Whatev's."
Vinyl Scratch and Octavia then both returned to their seats. Twilight sure was glad Applejack cut in otherwise they WOULD be here all day. But she has to admit it did ease the tension of everyone. Twilight took this opportunity to continue. "Well, now that-
Vinyl: "ME!
Octavia: "I!"
Twilight gave them both a look before continuing. "…Well, not that THAT'S been settled I suppose your match should be next to last, Rarity and Lyra's match should be third, and since Applejack and Bon Bon are the only ones left they will be facing each other in the second match." Twilight concluded.
Applejack shrugged, and if you listen closely you could hear Bon Bon gulp.
Twilight: "Then the matches are settled. Now for the last order of business…who would like to commentate alongside Sunset Shimmer for the first match?"
Whatever sense of peace that had been previously place instantly disintegrated and replaced with a few shunning turns of the head followed by the occasional "HMPH!". Sunset Shimmer's depressed expression lowered deeper, and Twilight noticed.
Twilight sighed. "Well then I'll be commentating with her. Meeting adjourned." Twilight announced with a slightly annoyed tone. Everyone then immediately left the room to go about their business, all the while ignoring Sunset Shimmer completely. Twilight walked around from behind her desk as Sunset Shimmer got up from her seat with her head down and a crestfallen expression plastered onto her face. Twilight put a hand on her shoulder.
Twilight: "Don't worry Sunset. Just forget about them for now and lets have some fun commentating some wresting." Twilight assured with a smile.
Sunset Shimmer didn't say anything. Sunset Shimmer nodded and walked alongside Twilight to the commentator's table to begin the show.
Fifty minutes later…
The lights were dimmed and Lyra turned on all of the stuffed animals. Bon Bon was in the ref's outfit and was standing the ring and waiting patiently for the match to start so she could start reffing. Octavia, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Vinyl Scratch made room in the bleachers for themselves to watch the match from. Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer were positioned at the commentator's table with Twilight on the bell's side and Sunset on the other. Twilight waved to Lyra for the signal to lower the volume of the cheering stuffed animals so she can speak.
Twilight: "Good evening wrestling fans, and welcome to Canterlot Carnage Pro Wrestling!"
*- The stuffed animals cheered loudly -*
Twilight: "Thank you, Thank you! Now today we have yet ANOTHER new talent to Canterlot Carnage Pro Wrestling. She, of course, will be debuting in this show's main event. And here she is next to me! please let me introduce our newest member: Sunset Shimmer!"
Utter silence lingered within the walls of the building, much to Sunset Shimmer's dismay and Twilight's annoyance.
Twilight: "Lyra, why aren't you making the animal's cheer?!" Twilight asked loudly.
Lyra (Announcer): "Wha? Huh?! OH! Sorry, I wasn't ready! Go ahead and do it again!"
Twilight raised her eyebrow in suspicion before continuing. "Let me introduce our newest member: Sunset Shimmer!"
*- The stuffed animals booed loudly at maximum volume -*
Twilight: "Lyra!" Twilight yelled accusingly.
Lyra (Announcer): "Whoopsie! Guess I pressed the wrong button. My bad." Lyra said in an mockingly innocent voice.
Twilight lowered her eyebrows in frustration, but quickly changed her demeanor when she looked next to her to see Sunset Shimmer looking down sadly at the table top. Twilight put a hand on Sunset Shimmer's shoulder and smiled which seemed to cheer Sunset Shimmer up.
Sunset: "Thanks, Twilight. It's great to be here."
Twilight: "I'm glad. It's nice to have you here as well. So, what do you think of CCPW in terms of a first impression?"
Sunset Shimmer bit her lip. She didn't really receive the warmest welcome when she got here in all truthfulness, but she didn't want to insult anyone unintentionally. So she decided to play it safe.
Sunset: "Well I never actually thought you guys were into this sort of thing to be honest. But, I have to say you guys look like you did an amazing job here what with all the lights, the…uh…audience, and even the ring looks pretty authentic. You guys really outdid yourselves!" Sunset Shimmer said with as much cheerfulness that she could muster.
Twilight grinned. "Well I'm glad you like it. I would also like to wish you luck on your debut match in the main event which will pit you against me and the current Canterlot Diva's Central Champion, Rainbow Dash."
Sunset: "I look forward to the competition both from you AND Rainbow Dash." Sunset Shimmer said as she stuck out her hand to which Twilight gladly shook it.
Twilight: "Me as well! I've seen you fight before, but don't take me lightly! I've been practicing and studying ever since I started CCPW!" Twilight said enthusiastically.
Sunset Shimmer chuckled. "Yeah, that sounds like you."
Twilight giggled before continuing. "Well, this has been fun, but we have better continue on with the commentary on the next match."
Sunset: "You mean the rematch between Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy?"
Twilight: "That would be correct."
Sunset put her fingers against her head and chuckled again. "Wow, I'm sorry it's still hard to imagine Fluttershy being the wrestling type." Sunset Shimmer said in disbelief.
Twilight: "Don't worry Sunset. You'll understand when the match starts. Which we will be getting too as soon as the wrestlers get in the ring! So let's get started shall we?!"
Sunset Shimmer nodded. "Lets!"
The stuffed animals were now cheering to their maximum volume as Lyra activated the large firework sparklers on each of the turnbuckles and let them spew into the air, signaling the beginning of the show.
Then the lights went dim and the search lights pointed toward the curtains.
*~ One Direction's song "That's What Makes You Beautiful" resonates throughout the building ~*
Lyra (Announcer): "Hello everyone! The match is scheduled for one fall! Coming out first…all the way from the Canterlot Animal Shelter…Standing in at "5'7" and weighing in at 136 lbs…The timid beauty of the ring…FLUUUTEEERSHYYYY!"
*- The stuffed animals cheered loudly -*
Fluttershy stepped out of the curtains and did a light wave to the crowd before starting to walk down the runway toward the ring. Fluttershy was wearing her regular wrestling attire with her hair in its same style as she made her way down the runway.
Sunset Shimmer found herself giggling again. "That's quite the outfit Fluttershy's got on. I'm surprised she's not fainting at this point."
Twilight: "Well the fact that these are stuffed animals and not real people help."
Sunset: "That's true. So, just out of curiosity, how many matches has she won ever since you started this, Twilight?"
Twilight: "Well…she's only ever one once. She won against Pinkie Pie via submission."
Sunset Shimmer nodded slowly. "Ah…so I guess you could say it's lucky for Pinkie Pie. I mean if she lost then this is her chance to get even."
Twilight: "Like revenge?"
Sunset Shimmer cringed at the word. "I uh…don't like to use that word…not anymore anyway."
Twilight immediately regretted her remark. "OH, I didn't mean to imply anything!"
Sunset Shimmer smiled sadly and waved it off. "It's okay Twilight."
Twilight let out a sigh of relief. "Good. Anyway, Pinkie Pie will INDEED get her chance to even the odds in this match."
Sunset Shimmer clapped her hands. "Can't wait."
As soon as Fluttershy got to the edge of the ring, she slowly crawled into the ring, got up to her feet, and proceeded to her corner (which from the commentator's point of view, was the upper left turnbuckle) to wait for her opponent to come to the ring.
*~ Nightcore's song "Dam Dadi Do" resonates throughout the building ~*
Lyra (Announcer): "Introducing next…Coming from Mr. and Mrs. Cake's sweet bakery that is "Sugarcube Corner"…Standing in at "5'6" and weighing in at 121 lbs…The life of ANY party…PIIINKIIIEEE PIE!"
*- The stuffed animals cheered loudly -*
Pinkie Pie exploded out of the curtain and was showered with confetti that she put on top of the curtain herself as she jumped up and down with a few wee's and whoo-hoo's. After doing this for a while, she stopped to do a merry skip down the runway. Pinkie Pie was wearing her regular wrestling attire with her natural hairstyle.
Sunset: "Well…That's typical of Pinkie Pie." Sunset stated. She always found to be Pinkie Pie the most annoying of the Mane 6 as she was always cheerful. It used to disgust her. Even know it's still kind of annoying, but she chose not to say anything further.
Twilight: "Yep. Just typical Pinkie Pie."
Sunset crossed her arms. "Let me guess. She wrestles because it's fun."
Twilight nodded. "That goes without saying. Pinkie Pie being an ex-gymnast has actually given her some advantages in the ring making her quite the acrobat."
Sunset: "With how she bounces all over the place I'd think it'd be hard to catch her too."
Twilight: "Well, she hasn't had the best of luck with her matches though. Especially her match with Fluttershy." Twilight explained.
This peaked Sunset Shimmer's curiosity. "Really? What happened in her last match with Fluttershy?"
Twilight went wide eyed. "Uh…its best you not know. Just trust me on this one."
Sunset Shimmer raised an eyebrow. "Okay…"
When Pinkie Pie got to the side of the ring, she grabbed the middle rope and used it to catapult herself over the top rope and into the ring while doing a front flip in mid-air. She sticks the landing and starts to skip in circles around the ring with hands in the air while lip synching her theme song. She then skips to her corner (which from the commentator's point of view was the lower right turnbuckle) and jumps up and down to pump herself up while waiting for her match to begin.
Bon Bon went over to Pinkie Pie's corner to search her. As soon as Bon Bon determined Pinkie Pie to be clean, she proceeded over to Fluttershy's corner to search her. Fluttershy, at first, was a little hesitant about Bon Bon searching her but Bon Bon assured her she was not interested in Fluttershy in the slightest. Fluttershy felt relief…and strangely she also felt insulted. Regardless, she was searched and found clean. Bon Bon then proceeded over to the middle of the ring and beckoned them to come until they were a short distance from each other.
Pinkie Pie was jumping up and down in front of a nervous Fluttershy as she waited for the match to begin. Bon Bon quickly explained the rules to both of them to which they nodded in agreement.
Bon Bon: "You ready, Pinkie Pie?" Bon Bon asked to which Pinkie Pie's eyeballs seemed to pop out of her head for a moment before putting both of her hands in the air.
Pinkie: "WAIT!...are there any bats?" Pinkie Pie whispered.
Bon Bon: "Uh…what?"
Sunset Shimmer looked over at Twilight. "What's she talking about?"
Twilight searched her mind for an excuse. Luckily she found one. "Uh…It's Pinkie Pie. Don't try to question it." Twilight was doing it for Sunset's own good.
Sunset Shimmer shrugged. Twilight makes a good point.
Back in the ring, Pinkie Pie was giving Fluttershy the stink eye to which Fluttershy explained to her that there were no signs of any more bats after she inspected the place due to the "Brownie incident".
Pinkie tapped her chin and tried her best to look suspiciously intimidating only to come off as silly. "Hmmm….So..no bats?"
Fluttershy shook her head. "No."
Pinkie Pie continued to give Fluttershy a suspicious look before, in a rather bipolar display, went back to happy. "Okie Dokie Lokie! I guess I'm ready then!" Pinkie Pie said as she got into a wrestling stance.
Bon Bon: "…Okay. Are you ready, Fluttershy?"
Fluttershy exhaled before getting into a wrestling stance. "I'm ready."
Bon Bon: "FIGHT!" Bon Bon then motioned for Twilight to ring the bell.
Twilight rang the bell. *DING! DING! DING!*
Bon Bon took a step back so the match could start and she could start reffing. Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie began to circle each other in the middle of the ring. Pinkie Pie smiled and started off the match with an attempt at a left jab, but Fluttershy grabs Pinkie Pie's left arm with both of her hands before the punch lands. Fluttershy then twists Pinkie Pie's left arm into an Armbar to put pressure on Pinkie Pie's shoulder and elbow causing Pinkie Pie to wrench forward. Pinkie Pie yelped in pain to which Fluttershy couldn't help but wince. However, Pinkie Pie does a standing front flip to release herself from the Armbar. Pinkie Pie then grabs Fluttershy's hair with her right hand and proceeds to knee Fluttershy in the stomach to make her double over and release Pinkie Pie's arm. Pinkie Pie runs towards the ropes in the direction of the left side bleachers and bounces off them. Pinkie Pie then runs back at a doubled over Fluttershy and jumps forward while hiking up both of her legs and letting them land into the back of the Fluttershy's head and neck to drive her face-first into the mat for a Scissors kick.
Sunset: "What?! What?! What?!" Sunset Shimmer repeats with great surprise.
Twilight: "Uh…what, what?"
Sunset Shimmer put her hands on her head and laughs. "Hahaha! Sorry, sorry! I-It's just…I could NEVER imagine Pinkie Pie doing that to someone!"
Twilight nodded and shrugged. "Yeah, it's pretty had to see her doing that but she enjoys it."
Sunset Shimmer looked over at Twilight with a bewildered look but decided not to say anything and turn her head back to the match.
Sunset: "Twilight makes Pinkie sound more like a sadomasochist than a wrestler…"
Back in the ring, Pinkie Pie flips Fluttershy onto her back and crawls across her body to cover her.
Twilight: "Looks like Pinkie's going for an early pin!"
Bon Bon excitedly gets down onto her knees and counts the pin. "1!...2!...KICKOUT!"
Twilight: "And Fluttershy kicks out!"
Sunset: "Huh. Didn't know Fluttershy could take a hit." Sunset Shimmer coughed. "She didn't used to when I beat her up." Sunset Shimmer thought in disbelief.
Back in the ring, Pinkie Pie got to her knees and angrily grabbed both Fluttershy's hair and pulled her upwards before slamming her head back into the mat. Pinkie Pie then sits down and turns on her left side towards Fluttershy and places her legs on either side of Fluttershy's head, crossing her top right leg after it's gone around Fluttershy's chin. Pinkie Pie then tightens the grip to choke Fluttershy for a Neck Scissor. Fluttershy gasps for air as she frantically kicks her legs against the mat. Unfortunately for Pinkie Pie though, Fluttershy was able to easily break out of the Neck Scissor a few seconds later by placing both of her hands under Pinkie Pie's right knee and pushed it up above the chin so Fluttershy could slide herself out of it. Fluttershy quickly gets to her knees but was quickly hit in the back of the head by Pinkie Pie's knee. Pinkie Pie grabbed Fluttershy by the hair and pulled Fluttershy up to her feet. Pinkie Pie quickly landed a knife edge chop across Fluttershy's chest to make her gasp in pain before Irish Whipping her into her (Pinkie' Pie's) corner. Fluttershy hit the turnbuckle and slowly turned around to lean against it. Pinkie Pie charges toward Fluttershy and runs at her, and up her, and kicks off Fluttershy's chest and lands back on her feet to complete the Corner backflip kick. Pinkie Pie then lunges at Fluttershy and continuously delivers a series of Knife edge chops to the suffering Fluttershy.
Sunset: "Wow. Pinkie Pie sure is more violent than I remembered her to be."
Twilight: "Ohhh yeah." Twilight says with an indefinite nod.
Pinkie Pie ceases her chops to grab the panting Fluttershy's hair with her left hand before proceeding to go over to the ropes next to the turnbuckle (The ropes towards the commentator's table) while still keeping a hold of Fluttershy's hair and begins to climb backwards up the ropes until she is standing on the second rope. Pinkie Pie then jumps from the second rope and drops into a sitout position to plant Fluttershy's face into the mat for a Diving Facebuster. Pinkie Pie shoots a finger in the air and lets out a triumphant cheer before grabbing Fluttershy and pulling her onto her back where she lays there turning her head in a daze. Pinkie Pie reaches back and grabs both of Fluttershy's legs and lifts them into the air for another pin attempt.
Bon Bon drops to the mat. "1!...2!...KICKOUT!"
Sunset: "That was a close call!"
Twilight: "But Fluttershy managed to kick out!"
Pinkie Pie growls through her teeth and throws Fluttershy's legs back down onto the mat. Pinkie Pie then crawls over Fluttershy and straddles her chest before delivering a series of punches to her face. Fluttershy, however, also managed to land a few punches of her own. Soon they were in a collar and elbow tie-up to which they struggled to see who could be on. In fact they their struggle seems to had made them roll right out of the ring in the direction of the right side bleachers and onto the ground below. But Luckily for Fluttershy she had Pinkie Pie to break her fall.
Twilight: "And they're both out of the ring!"
Sunset: "With Fluttershy on top of Pinkie Pie and struggling!"
Twilight couldn't help but blush a how wrong that sounded out loud.
Bon Bon went over to the ropes to count them out. "1!...2!..."
Pinkie Pie managed to place her right leg under Fluttershy and kick her off backwards on to her back. Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy got up to their feet and stared at each other while letting out heavy pants.
Bon Bon: "7!...8!...9!...10!..."
Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy cut off their stare and quickly tried to get back in the ring. Pinkie Pie was first up onto the apron but Fluttershy grabbed her right leg to pull her down to make her chin crash onto the apron. Pinkie Pie then fell back onto the ground while Fluttershy, with a quick "I'm sorry" to Pinkie Pie, managed to get back up on the apron and step back into the ring. All the while Bon Bon continued to count.
Bon Bon: "14!...15!...16!..."
Twilight: "Pinkie Pie is going to be defeated by countout again if she doesn't get back in the ring quick!"
Pinkie Pie manages to shake it off and quickly throw herself back onto the apron and roll back into the ring before the 17th count.
Sunset: "And it looks like Pinkie Pie prevails."
Back in the ring, Fluttershy picks up Pinkie Pie off of the ground by her arm and Irish whips her towards the ropes in the direction of the left side bleachers. Pinkie Pie managed to wrap her arms around the top and middle ropes to stop herself from bouncing off but still wasn't safe from the Running Dropkick to her back. Fluttershy, as she fell back, used her left arm to grab a hold of Pinkie Pie's tights and pull her down to which Pinkie Pie then rolled backwards onto her back. All the while still holding Pinkie Pie's tights, Fluttershy shifted her body on top of Pinkie Pie's struggling legs.
Pinkie: "GRRR! Let me go, LET ME GO!" Pinkie Pie screamed as she tried to kick out of the roll-up.
Bon Bon dropped to count."1!...2!...KICKOUT!"
Pinkie Pie rolled backwards onto her knees while Fluttershy swiftly grabbed her by her hair and pulled her up to her feet. Fluttershy then used her right arm to apply a front facelock to Pinkie Pie. However, Pinkie Pie used her right leg to knee Fluttershy in the stomach. Pinkie Pie then got out of Fluttershy's front facelock and applied one of her own to Fluttershy using her right arm. Pinkie Pie then gave three strong knees to Fluttershy's stomach. Pinkie Pie then jumped up and down on her back and swung her legs forward. This caused Fluttershy to bend over and have her forehead driven into the mat for a Snap DDT.
Sunset winced. "That's going to hurt tomorrow."
Fluttershy slumped down onto her knees before slumping again onto her left side in a fetal position. Pinkie Pie got off of her back and onto her knees before proceeding to push Fluttershy onto her back. Pinkie Pie's eyes scanned Fluttershy as she lays there panting heavily with a rather pitiful look of defeat on her face; her eyes were closed and she was panting heavily. Pinkie Pie tapped her chin.
Pinkie: "Hmm…I better make sure she's not faking." Pinkie Pie said to herself feeling really smart about this decision. Pinkie Pie raises her hand over Fluttershy's face and boops her on the nose to no change in behavior. She then snaps her fingers above her to no reaction as well.
Pinkie Pie smiled confidently. "HA! You're NOT faking which means I win!" Pinkie Pie said out loud. Pinkie Pie then crawls across Fluttershy's body and uses her right hand to press down on Fluttershy's right shoulder and uses her left hand to grab the back of Fluttershy's right knee and raises her leg to let it dangle.
Bon Bon counts. "1!...2!...KICKOUT!"
Pinkie Pie immediately releases Fluttershy from the pin. Fluttershy rolled her shoulder just before Bon Bon's hand made it to the mat for a third count. Pinkie Pie was bewildered.
Pinkie: "WHAT?! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?! I MADE SURE YOU WERE DOWN?!"
You could hear the loud smacks of all the face-palms being made throughout the building. Even over the cheering audience who would ALSO be face-palming themselves if they were not stuffed toys.
Sunset: "Wow. I always knew Pinkie Pie wasn't bright but…"
Twilight sighed. "Looks like Pinkie Pie was too busy making sure Fluttershy was down to pin her earlier." Twilight said in a rather disappointed if not untouched voice.
Pinkie Pie got up to her feet before pulling Fluttershy up with her. Pinkie Pie positioned herself where she was on Fluttershy's left side and facing the same direction. Pinkie Pie then used her right arm to put Fluttershy in an inverted facelock and was about to attempt a move. However, Fluttershy was determined not to give her the chance.
Fluttershy: "Stop it!" Fluttershy ordered.
Fluttershy then used her left arm to elbow Pinkie Pie in the chest and make her release the inverted facelock. Pinkie Pie staggered back with a pain on her face as she held her chest. Fluttershy then grabbed Pinkie Pie by the air with her left hand and pulls her in to Irish Whip her but at the lasts second keeps a hold of Pinkie Pie's left arm with her right hand. And as soon as Pinkie Pie was fully extended Fluttershy pulled her back in and used her free left arm to connect a Short-arm Clothesline onto Pinkie Pie's neck throwing Pinkie Pie down back-first. Fluttershy wasted no time bending over t pick up Pinkie Pie's left leg by the boot while Pinkie Pie was stirring. Fluttershy used her right boot to give Pinkie Pie's raised leg a good stomp before yanking down to the mat which caused Pinkie Pie to yelp in pain before she held her knee.
Twilight: "It looks like Fluttershy is in control again!"
Fluttershy walked over to Pinkie Pie and picked her up by her hair. As the standing Pinkie Pie panted with her arms dangling down, Fluttershy took a second to catch her breath. Fluttershy had a move set up for this and hopefully it will make Pinkie Pie stay down. Fluttershy positions herself on Pinkie Pie's left side and uses her right arm to put Pinkie Pie into a three-quarter facelock. Fluttershy used her free left arm to grab a hold of the front of Pinkie Pie's hair.
Fluttershy: "Okay…*Flutter…"
Fluttershy ran forward to the middle of the ring before jumping forwards while kicking her feet forwards to make her body fall backwards onto the mat to force Pinkie Pie's face into the mat.
Fluttershy: "CUTTER*!"
Sunset: "That sounds like a signature move but…that's just a basic Cutter."
Twilight shrugged. "Well….maybe a Cutter made performed by Fluttershy is a...*Flutter Cutter*-I don't know."
Fluttershy got to her feet and watched as Pinkie Pie held her face while stirring on the mat. Fluttershy could have pinned her then but she wanted to be absolutely sure she wins. And by using her own strength. Fluttershy picks up Pinkie Pie and puts her in another three-quarter facelock before turning around to run and jump forward while falling backwards; forcing Pinkie Pie's face into the mat for another *Flutter Cutter*.
Twilight: "Fluttershy lands another *Flutter Cutter*! This isn't looking good for Pinkie Pie!"
Sunset Shimmer just stared in awe at Fluttershy's performance.
Fluttershy picked up Pinkie Pie by the hair once more. Pinkie Pie was clearly exhausted with her eyes squeezed shut and her arms dangling down. Fluttershy decided that one more *Flutter Cutter* should do it, so Fluttershy put Pinkie Pie in yet another three-quarter facelock. Fluttershy then turned around to jump forwards while falling backwards; forcing Pinkie Pie's face into the mat for one final *Flutter Cutter*.
Sunset: "Damn, Fluttershy sure isn't holding anything back, is she?"
Fluttershy sat up before getting to her knees. Fluttershy then turned to the down Pinkie Pie and flipped her over onto her back to see Pinkie Pie breathing heavily with a look of sad defeat expressed on her face. Fluttershy quickly draped herself across Pinkie Pie's abdomen and used her left arm to reach over and hook Pinkie Pie's right leg so tightly that you could see Fluttershy's arm shake.
Fluttershy: "Please Pinkie Pie, stay down…" Fluttershy quietly prayed in her mind.
Bon Bon drops to count the pin. "1!..2!..."
Fluttershy: "Please let me win…please…"
Bon Bon: "3!" Bon Bon finished as she motioned for Twilight to ring the bell.
Twilight rang the bell. *DING! DING! DING!*
*~ One Direction's song "That's What Makes You Beautiful" resonates throughout the building ~*
Fluttershy quickly got off of Pinkie Pie and rolled backwards onto her knees where she shot her hands in the air and let out a loud shout of joy. In fact if you brush back some of her hair you could see a few tears drop down her cheeks. Fluttershy was overjoyed as she has REALLY one her first match by herself. Just her and no one else. Bon Bon smiled as she helped Fluttershy up and lifted her hand in the air.
Bon Bon: "HERE IS YOUR WINNER VIA PINFALL! FLUTTERSHY!"
*- The stuffed animals cheered loudly -*
Sunset shot up from her chair and cheered. "Whooohooo! Go Fluttershy!"
Twilight: "That was definitely a match to remember. Fluttershy just got her first ever victory in CCPW by her own wit and strength alone. She's obviously a little emotional about it." Twilight turned to Sunset. "Hey Sunset, take a look." Twilight said tilting her head to the ring.
Sunset Shimmer looked in the ring where Fluttershy immediately helped up the still kinda dazed Pinkie Pie. Pinkie Pie looked at her and warmly smiled as she wiped a tear from Fluttershy's face before they embraced. Pinkie Pie then grabbed Fluttershy's hand and raised it into the air with a cheer as they both basked in the cheering of the audience.
Sunset Shimmer sat down. "You know Twilight…I was kind of wondering why you guys liked this SO much. I can see now." Sunset Shimmer reflected with a smile.
Twilight smiled before signaling for Lyra to turn off all of the stuffed animals. Everyone went over to the ring where Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie helped each out of the ring. What came next were few minutes of Fluttershy wiping away the rest of her tears and blushing from the attention. Mostly from Rainbow Dash who grabbed her and gave her a hug before taking a proud look at her.
Rainbow: "Fluttershy YOU ARE A BOSS! I mean those were some sweet moves out there! And the way you made a signature and used it THREE times in a row! You have definitely gotten better! I'm really am proud of you." Rainbow Dash praised to which Fluttershy blushed.
Applejack: "Y'all sure was tearin' it up out there, Fluttershy!" Applejack added.
Everyone then began to compliment Fluttershy and Pinkie pie on a great match. But they all ceased their praises when Twilight appeared right alongside Sunset Shimmer. Sunset Shimmer was smiling and walked up to Fluttershy and stuck out her hand.
Sunset: "That was a good fight, Fluttershy! I never knew you could be so tough!" Sunset Shimmer offered with a smile.
Fluttershy, however, only went wide eyed and backed away from Sunset Shimmer. Sunset Shimmer's face switched from pride to concern as she reached a hand out for Fluttershy.
Sunset: "Wait, Fluttershy! I only want-
Sunset Shimmer was interrupted by Rainbow Dash smacking her hand away and stepping in front of Fluttershy and glaring at Sunset Shimmer. Sunset Shimmer looked appalled and hurt but Rainbow Dash only turned to put her arm around Fluttershy and walked with her while she praised Fluttershy's accomplishment; sending Sunset Shimmer a look over her shoulder afterwards. The rest of the group didn't say anything as they began to walk away and prepared for the next match.
Sunset Shimmer looked down at the ground with a hurt expression glooming from her. Twilight put a hand on Sunset Shimmer's shoulder as she tried to comfort her.
Twilight: "I know they don't seem to like you right know but…everything will get better. Why don't you go to the bleachers and watch the next match, okay?"
Sunset Shimmer sighed. "Yeah. All alone."
Pinkie Pie then appeared out of nowhere to which both Sunset Shimmer and Twilight jumped back.
Pinkie: "Don't you worry Sunset! You can sit next to ME!" Pinkie pie assured.
Sunset Shimmer raised an eyebrow. "Really? After everything I've done?"
Pinkie Pie waved it off. "Eh. That was two months, one week, four days, thirteen hours, thirty-two minutes, and sixteen seconds ago. C'mon let's go! But I gotta change first."
Sunset Shimmer looked over at Twilight who nodded to give her the go ahead. Sunset Shimmer then followed Pinkie pie as she skips down to the locker rooms. Twilight couldn't help but feel a sense of relief that at least ONE of her friends isn't out to hang Sunset Shimmer. She just hopes the rest of them don't kill her before they even give her a chance.
Twilight: "I guess I better get ready for the next match…" Twilight said with a sigh as she left to get everything ready for match number two.
To be honest I was debating on whether to cut this chapter in half and make two separate chapters out of it but I decided that it'll be okay like this. But if you think it should have, feel free to say. Until next chapter which will be Applejack vs Bon Bon. Arevoir.
