Chapter 8

Monday, September 14

It was a rather cloudy Monday at Canterlot High school and everyone was exhausted from their weekends off. However, exhausted was an understatement when you've been spending your weekend at an abandoned building wrestling with your best friends. The Mane 6 had a wonderful weekend despite their exhaustion, however. They had a two week long tournament for the Canterlot Diva's Central Championship title which was exhilarating for all of them to compete in. However, the winner of the tournament was Rainbow Dash who claimed the title of Canterlot Diva's Central Champion. What to do afterwards…was hard to say. Since the Mane 6 didn't have any time to meet after school this week, they decided to meet during lunch period; they all had the same lunch period, so they could always meet up there during school. However, when discussing their more important business (such as wrestling) they would all go to the abandoned table in the very back of the lunchroom. Luckily, Canterlot High School was an immensely big school, and that means an immensely sized lunchroom where they were safer from unwanted ears.

Twilight, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash were already at the abandoned table and were waiting on Applejack and Fluttershy who have finally arrived with their food trays.

Rainbow: "What took you guys so long?" asked Rainbow Dash.

Fluttershy: "Oh. I'm sorry. I was waiting on the salad I ordered and it took longer than I expected it to." Over half of the food at Canterlot High usually has meat based products in them. So, being a vegetarian, she has to preorder her lunch composed of vegetables and fruits so she doesn't have to eat any of those poor animals.

Applejack: "And Ah was behind her." Applejack confirmed.

Rarity: "It's fine darling. Now take a seat. We're about to start." Rarity said patting the seat next to her for Fluttershy. Applejack took the seat next to Twilight who was also sitting next to Rainbow Dash. Pinkie Pie was standing up and was peering above Twilight's head.

Twilight cleared her throat. "Well, I actually want to start off by showing you all something." Twilight said as she took out a sheet of computer paper.

The rest of the Mane 6 looked over to see what it was.

Pinkie: "What's that, Twilight?" Pinkie Pie asked.

Twilight: "This is the official CCPW Roster and Ranking sheet!" Twilight said proudly. "This sheet shows the number of wrestlers, the names of the wrestlers, and their rankings."

Rainbow Dash raised an eyebrow. "You sure, because this doesn't look like any ranking system I've ever seen by other wrestling companies." Rainbow Dash observed.

Twilight: "Well...no. It isn't. This is just a system I created for OUR group. I know it's unconventional but it's the simplest system

I could come up with." Twilight reasoned.

Rarity looked over the sheet with concern. "It does appear to be simple, but do you mind telling us the details of this ranking system of yours?" Rarity asked.

Pinkie: "Yeah! Like, what are shows?" Pinkie Pie asked.

Twilight: "In this case, shows are the number of times a wrestler competes in a match. Like, when you show up or not. For instance, you have only participated in one match against Rarity. However, since you lost, Rarity went on to the three-way match resulting in her participation of TWO matches.

Pinkie Pie crossed her arms. "I guess that makes sense."

Fluttershy lightly poked Twilight on the shoulder to get her attention. "Um…excuse me?" Fluttershy said in a quiet voice.

Twilight turned to face Fluttershy. "Yes?"

Fluttershy: "I don't wanna be rude, but I'm curious as to what those are." Fluttershy said pointing at the word P-Position.

Twilight: "Oh, those are your point positions." Twilight answered.

Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie suddenly were about to burst into fits of laughter but caught themselves and tried to hold them in.

Twilight frowned. "What's so funny?" Twilight asked with a small glint of irritation.

Rainbow Dash tried her best to stop laughing enough to answer Twilight's question. "I'm sorry…it's just…" Rainbow Dash felt she was about to start laughing again so she quickly whispered her thoughts into Twilight's ear before bursting out laughing onto the floor along with Pinkie Pie who gave up the fight a little while ago.

Twilight's cheeks blushed a rather dark shade of crimson. "Rainbow Dash! That's not what P-Position means!" Twilight said appalled by Rainbow Dash's filthy thoughts.

As Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie were laughing, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy sat, confused by their friends' behavior.

Applejack: "What in the blazes is so funny? There's nothin' funny about a…" Applejack's voice trailed off as she suddenly realized the reference and started to chuckle as well.

Rarity: "What?" Rarity asked still confused. Applejack leaned in to whisper to Rarity who scrunched up her face in disgust. "Eeeeeeeyeeeeew! Rainbow Dash, that's repulsive! Why ever would you think of such a thing?!" Rarity exclaimed.

Fluttershy: "Was it really that bad?" Fluttershy asked nervously. Rarity's only response was passing on a whisper to Fluttershy that made her blush madly and cover her face. "Oh. My."

Twilight: "That's not funny! I'm being serious!" Twilight said sharply.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash eventually calmed down. Pinkie Pie, however, needed a good nudge to the ribs by Rainbow Dash for her to stop.

Recovering from the disturbing misinterpretation of her system, Twilight cleared her throat and continued. "Now then. Your P-Position is-

Twilight was interrupted by the snickering of Pinkie Pie. Twilight turned around to shoot her an annoyed look to which Pinkie Pie immediately stopped snickering and blushed with a bashful grin on her face. "Oopsie."

Twilight slowly turned her attention back to the paper. "Now. P-Position stands for Point Position. Your point position will determine your rankings among the roster of CCPW. Your point positions will be determined by the amount of victories and defeats you have. Your final P-Position will be determined by subtracting your defeats from your victories. For example, Fluttershy lost once and didn't show for the three-way match so her point position is -1. Rarity on the other hand won her first match which originally gave her a 1, but lost her second match which brought her back down to a 0."

Rarity: "If that is indeed the case then why do Applejack and Rainbow Dash have one more point then they should have?"

Twilight: "Well that's a special case. In the scenario of when two wrestlers make one opponent submit at the same time or pin two of their opponents at the same time, both of those wrestlers receive one point. Applejack and Rainbow Dash both made you submit so they each received one point. Now if say only Applejack was to make you submit then she would have gotten the point and Rainbow Dash would have received no point."

Rarity: "I see. Then why do I only have a one point reduction instead of two?"

Twilight: "Because, even though both of them defeated you that still only counts as one defeat. Not two." Twilight reasoned.

Rarity: "That makes sense." Rarity agreed.

Fluttershy: "So, the champion is the one with the highest point position?"

Twilight: "Well, no. Although your point position does affect your rankings, the champion and number one contender are special cases. Now listen carefully. This might seem a bit complex at first, but I assure you, you'll understand by the end of it. Now, once you're the champion your point position no longer determines your championship status. This is because the champion is able to lose any match as long as it's not a title bout match or any match that has the title on the line. However, the champion still has to try and win their matches because their point position DOES matter at that point. When a champion loses their title, they get sent back down into the regular ranks depending on their point position. And if the former champion's point position were to be higher than the others they would then be put directly one rank below the number one contender and the next highest rank that was originally below the number one contender becomes the new number one contender. However, in that instance, if the former champion's point position is higher than the newly placed number one contender's point position, then that's grounds for an immediate number #1 contender's match. If the former champion wins, then they become the number one contender. If the former champion loses, the new number one contender remains and the former champion's point position is still to remain in the rank under the number one contender. With the pointing system still applying, of course."

Rarity: "Well, how does the number one contender fall into this system of yours?" asked Rarity.

Twilight: "Well Rarity, the number one contender is the highest ranking wrestler besides the champion. Just saying that just in case you weren't completely sure. Anyway, the number one contender is able to challenge the current champion for a shot at winning the title and becoming the new champion. However, the number one contender can only challenge the champion if the champion has been defeated twice in a row. It is then that the number one contender can challenge the champion. However, the number one contender can change quickly. The wrestler with the rank position below the number one contender's rank position is able to challenge them to a #1 contender's match if their point position is greater or equal to the current number one contender's point position and if the current number one contender loses at least one match. If the number one contender loses that match then they have to hand over the position of number one contender to their opponent. If they win then they still remain the number one competitor. All with the pointing system still applied. All in all, both the champion and number one contender are two individually fixed Ranks that can only be achieved through certain conditions. And anything below the champion position and the top two positions are determined primarily by the pointing system."

Everyone absorbed this information slowly trying to bring the idea together in their heads. After a little while they all figured out Twilight's system and nodded in silent agreement except for Rainbow Dash who had a question.

Rainbow: "So, what are we gonna do next?"

Twilight shrugged. "Well, since there are no matches that will be for the title of champion or number one contender yet I say we go back to the abandoned building this weekend and do a couple of standard matches. Then at the end of the matches we can see if anyone is eligible for #1 contender matches or title bouts."

Rarity: "Well, what about the Canterlot Diva's tag team championship belts? Don't we have to determine them as well?"

Twilight: "Well, I was thinking we shouldn't go into that right away." Twilight answered.

Pinkie: "Why not?"

Twilight: "It's just that we just got through with another tournament only recently. Doing another tournament just after finishing a recent one has got to put stress on us. I think we should start off with regular matches and compete in the Canterlot Diva's Tag Team Champion ship later on. Blowing off some steam after a recent tournament should help us compete better in that tournament later on, don't you think?" Twilight said with slight concern.

The rest of the Mane 6 stood in silence for a while before answering.

Applejack: "Ah think Twilight's right, y'all. I don't think going straight into another competition is too healthy." Applejack conceded.

Rarity: "I agree. Too much competition is bad for your skin."

Twilight: "I mean the reason why we set up CCPW was to wrestle and have fun, right?" Twilight added.

Rainbow: "I like to win, but there's no fun in winning if you're not having fun while you do it." Rainbow Dash conceded.

Fluttershy: "I agree to."

Pinkie: "Me three!"

Twilight: "So then let's all agree to compete; but have fun doing it!" Twilight said cheerfully.

Applejack:. "I like the sound of that."

Rarity: "Indeed."

Pinkie: "I like fun!"

Fluttershy: "Yes."

Rainbow: "Totally!"

? : "Sounds cool."

?: "I concur."

The mane 6 jumped at the sound of the two voices that entered the conversation. They were probably too absorbed in their conversations to notice that two of their fellow classmates were watching them. The first one was Vinyl Scratch who was in her regular attire (See EG: Rainbow Rocks). She had short moderate cobalt blue hair with cyan stripes that goes behind her ears, would reach down to the bottom of her neck then blows forward along the sides of her neck. Her cerise eyes were hidden behind her black-rimmed glasses with dark purple glass that gradiates into moderate heliotrope. She was also had her light teal headphones around her neck that was connected to a wire that lead to the phone in her hand. She was a disk jockey who would always be wearing her headphones and listening to loud Techno or Dub step music. They knew her well as a rather laid back person who really liked to drop some bass in contrast to the second girl next to her. Her name was Octavia. Octavia was a little taller than Vinyl Scratch and wore her thin grey suit-like coat unbuttoned over her white, buttoned, collar shirt that had a pink bow tied around the collar. The shirt was tucked into a black, leg tight skirt that reached just above her knees. She also wore long white socks and light brown slip-on, laceless shoes. She had long, dark grey hair that had a clump at the front of her hair but was pulled back over her ears and straight down onto her back and had grayish mulberry colored eyes. Octavia was a cellist in the school orchestra who, unlike Vinyl Scratch, was more interested in the Classical genre of music and detested Dub step, or any kind of modern Rock or Techno music for that matter. Octavia always seemed to be stuck up compared to Vinyl Scratch's laid back nature. The two would constantly argue with each other and take stabs at one anothers tastes in music, and yet they are the best of friends. They were kind of like Applejack and Rarity. They are two different people, but they seem to be able to find common ground and get along.

Vinyl Scratch held up her hand and gave it a slight wave before greeting her startled peers. "Hey! What's up?!" Vinyl scratch said casually as if she was always there.

Rainbow Dash was first to react. "What's up?! What's up is that you two came out of nowhere and scared the hell out of us! Were you eavesdropping on us this whole time?!" Rainbow Dash asked angrily.

Vinyl Scratch raised up her hands in surrender. "Hey! Take it easy Rainbow Dash." Vinyl Scratch then pointed a finger at Octavia. "It was her idea." Vinyl quickly accused.

Octavia was taken aback. "Vinyl! You said we should come over here and observe them, not me!" Octavia snapped back in her transatlantic accent.

Vinyl Scratch quickly conceded. "Okay! Okay! It was my Idea. We heard the word 'Wrestling' so me and Tavi got curious."

Applejack stood up and went up beside Rainbow Dash and crossed her arms. "How much did y'all hear?" asked Applejack.

Vinyl Scratch scratched the back of her head. "Well, we heard Rainbow Dash talking to herself earlier today. Something about being the greatest wrestler of all time or something like that."

The rest of the Mane 6 turned to Rainbow Dash with unamused glares. Rainbow Dash was blushing madly with a nervous smile. "Hehehe…sorry?" Rainbow Dash said rubbing the back of her head feeling like the biggest idiot on earth.

Octavia looked at the ground before speaking. "As previously stated, we were curious so Vinyl insisted that we go ask you about Rainbow Dash. However you all seemed too absorbed in your conversation to notice us, so we waited for you to notice but you didn't and we ended up listening to everything you have just said." Octavia said with a reluctant tone.

Twilight: "To be honest, I am more curious as to why you two even care about professional wrestling at all."

Vinyl Scratch and Octavia looked at each other before proceeding to sit down with the rest of the Mane 6.

Vinyl: "Well, you know how me and Tavi like music right?"

Twilight: "Yeah?"

Vinyl: "Well, we both like wrestling just as much." Vinyl Scratch stated firmly.

Mane 6: "Really?"

Vinyl: "Yeah. I always liked pro wrestling. It's a fun sport. I watch it with my old man all the time when I'm not working on my music. I kinda picked up a few things from that, you know?"

It was easy to see why Vinyl Scratch would be interested in pro wrestling, but the real shocker was that Octavia liked pro wrestling. Octavia. The girl who was even more stuck up and sophisticated than Rarity and had little stomach for any kind of 'barbaric behavior' likes pro wrestling just as much as Vinyl Scratch.

Octavia looked up and tried her best to put on a serious face but it turned into more of an embarrassed frown. "Well…You see…My uncle used to be a professional wrestler. I used to go to all of his matches to support him. When he retired I didn't have anyone to root for anymore. So I would sometimes turn on the television when I'm alone and watch a few matches from time to time. I'm not sure what it is, but for some reason it just excites me."

The Mane 6 weren't sure how to react to Octavia sharing such personal information like that. Eventually Twilight asked the question that they were all wondering.

Twilight: "Why are you telling us all this?" Twilight asked.

Octavia: "We would hope this would help you trust us a little bit more before we ask if we could join CCPW." Octavia answered.

Twilight blinked. "I'm sorry, what was that?" Twilight asked again.

Vinyl: "Can we join CCPW?" Vinyl Scratch repeated.

The reaction from the question was one of both confusion and doubt. They never intended for anyone other than themselves to be a part of this little secret of theirs. I mean they knew them both rather well, but…

Vinyl: "Twilight."

Twilight turned to see that Vinyl Scratch had removed her glasses to show her cerise colored eyes and put her hands into a praying position.

Vinyl: "C'mon! It would be so cool to actually wrestle! Right Tavi?!" Vinyl Scratch said referring to her friend.

Octavia put on a serious face and held her nose up in the air a little before answering. "Vinyl, please! I refuse to stoop to groveling. " Octavia then looked at Twilight. "However, I can ask you politely to consider us for CCPW. You have my word that not a word shall be spoken from my lips."

Twilight looked at the two and figured in her mind if she should let them join or not. However, this probably a problem she has to share with her friends. They are part of CCPW to, after all.

Twilight: "Can you give us all a minute?" Twilight asked politely before gesturing the other's to come in for a huddle.

Twilight: "What do you guys think? Should we let them join?"

Rainbow: "I dunno…what if they spill their guts?" Rainbow Dash asked with caution.

Pinkie: "I think we should! Vinyl helped me with a lot of my parties as a DJ and she was always helped me out whenever I needed her." Pinkie Pie defended.

Fluttershy: "I admit I don't know Octavia too well, but despite her posh attitude I think we should at least give her a chance."

Rarity lifted her head to look at Octavia and stare at her briefly before putting her head back into the huddle. "I agree with Fluttershy. We may not know them as well as we do each other, but they are obviously passionate about this as we are. I say we welcome them."

Rainbow: "Could be fun to knock some new heads around?" Rainbow Dash chimed in.

Applejack shrugged. "Ah think it's worth a shot."

They all gave a brief nod before breaking the huddle; satisfied with their decision. Twilight then proceeded toward Vinyl Scratch and Octavia and guided them further down the table away from the other students as possible so as to make sure they are not heard again.

Twilight: "We've reached a decision. Vinyl Scratch. Octavia. Welcome to Canterlot Carnage Pro Wrestling!" Twilight said extending her hand.

Vinyl Scratch and Octavia both lit up to the good news. Vinyl used both of her hands to grab Twilight's and shook it with excessive force. "Thanks bro! This is gonna be so tight! My lips are sealed, I promise!" Vinyl said with obvious excitement.

Twilight: "Great!" Twilight said with an awkward smile.

After Vinyl released her grip from Twilight, she was soon met with another extended hand which belonged to Octavia.

Octavia: "It seems we are going to be opponents as well as friends then. Thank you for allowing us into your social gathering. You will not regret this decision, Twilight." Octavia said with a mildly confident smile.

Twilight smiled back as she shook Octavia's hand firmly. "Indeed I won't!" Twilight responded with equal confidence.

Suddenly, Pinkie Pie jumped in between the two and hooked both of her arms around both of their necks and pulled them both toward her until all of their cheeks were touching. "Do you know what THIS calls for?!" Pinkie Pie asked with bursting anticipation.

Octavia: "What?" Octavia asked slightly startled.

Pinkie: "A PA-

Pinkie Pie was interrupted by Applejack's hand covering her mouth to contain her outburst and pulling her away. "Pinkie, be quiet! We already have enough loudmouths around here without you addin' to the problem!" Applejack said as she was pointing her thumb over at Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow Dash: "Hey!"

Applejack suddenly took her hand off of Pinkie's moth after hearing a slurping sound and feeling Pinkie's tongue against her palm.

Applejack: "Awwwe! Did y'all just lick my hand?!" Applejack asked in repulse.

Pinkie: "Yep! You know, contrary to your name you don't taste anything like apples!" Pinkie Pie accused with a pointed finger.

Twilight: "Anyway! We're going to be having a couple of matches this Saturday. Would you two be interested in participating in your debut matches then?" Twilight asked.

Vinyl: "I'll be there! And I'm gonna be droppin' you like bass!" Vinyl Scratch said with as much swagger as she could muster.

Octavia rolled her eyes. "We will be there." Octavia assured.

Twilight: "Great! I'll text you the time. Also, you'll have to text Rarity your sizes so she can prepare your wrestling attire." Twilight said gesturing toward Rarity.

Rarity: "I'll make designs for them and then I can run them by you. If there's something you would like, then by all means please say. I'll also need your input on your entrance theme music-

Rarity was interrupted by Octavia putting her hand up to her. "That won't be necessary. I am perfectly capable of writing and creating my own theme entrance." Octavia assured.

Vinyl: "Yeah, don't sweat it Rarity. We can make our own stuff. Besides, that's just less stress on you and more fun for us!" Vinyl also assured.

Rarity shrugged. "Alright then." Twilight and Rarity then traded phone numbers with Vinyl Scratch and Octavia before the lunch bell rang for them to head on back to class.

Vinyl: "Okay then. I'll see you guys Saturday!" Vinyl Scratch said before putting on her headphones and rocked her head as she left.

Octavia: "Until Saturday. I must bid you Farewell." Octavia said before walking away as well.

Twilight: "Looks like we're going to have to head back to class."

Pinkie Pie gave Applejack a look of happy anticipation. "Unless SOMEBODY wants to buy me a chocolate bar from the vending machine?" Pinkie Pie said with eagerness lingering in her voice.

Applejack raised an eyebrow and put her hands on her hips. "What do ya mean?"

Pinkie: "You said you would get me a new chocolate bar after the tournament!" Pinkie accused.

Applejack: "No. Ah said ah would get you a new chocolate bare after AH win the tournament. But ah didn't win so ah don't owe diddly!" Applejack said as she walked away.

Pinkie Pie: "Grrr! I'm calling a lawyer!" Pinkie Pie yelled back as she took out her phone and dialed a series of numbers. She held up the phone to her ear and waited for it to stop ringing before answering.

Pinkie: "Hello, operator? Yeah, gimmie a collect call to the Wright Anything Agency…"
