Today is the perfect day for Rainbow Dash because this is the day she will prove herself to the Wonderbolts so that she can join them. She practiced everything to be the best of the best.

She rushes to Twilight's bedroom to tell her about the event. "Hey, Twilight. Guess what? The actual Wonderbolts event is today! And guess who's gonna win?" she said. "Wait, today's the day? Wow, I can't believe its finally here. Your chance to become a Wonderbolt. I wish you luck Rainbow Dash, but be careful out there." said Twilight. "Don't worry, Twilight. I'll be fine. Wish me luck." said Rainbow Dash as she zooms out of her room.

Suddenly, the Book of Disney is calling them. "What the hay is that?" Rainbow Dash asked. "It must be the Book of Disney, ready for an adventure finally after the new year has arrived." said Twilight as she and her friend went to the throne room.

Once they all went to the throne room, Twilight went to the book and opened the next chapter. The next story is Mulan. She began to read,

"Long ago in ancient China, lived a young woman named Mulan. She is preparing to go to the matchmaker so she can have honor for her family. Her mother and the other woman helped her get ready so she can look beautiful and be perfect on getting a husband. When she saw the matchmaker, things didn't go so well. It's because of her clumsiness and a cricket running around causing trouble. Mulan went home without the honor and doesn't know who she really is. Her father came to her and comforted her about a flower blooming late and will be the beautiful of all. Suddenly, they hear drums from the outside gate and soliders entering the village. Mulan went to check it out and see what's going on. What she heard was very shocking towards everyone. The Huns have invaded China. By order of the emperor, one man from each family must serve in the imperial army. But when Mulan's father was picked to serve the army, she immediately rushed in and stopped him. But, he didn't listen and accepted to join the army. Mulan knows he can't because last time he went to war, he had an injured leg and couldn't walk properly. She tried to tell him don't go, but he didn't listen. That night, she decided to take her father's place and she will be the one to serve the army. She dressed up in her father's armor, cuts her hair and makes it to a manly hairstyle, grabs her horse, and she ran off without saying goodbye. When her family found out she left, they were heartbroken and worried that she will get killed. Her grandmother prayed to her ancestors to watch over Mulan. The ancestors were arguing about what Mulan had done. A little dragon named Mushu decided that he will go and help Mulan getting her honor and he will get his responsibility as her guardian. You are going to help her too by helping her getting her honor and make her a hero."

Once Twilight's done reading, she and her friends got sucked into the book.

...

They landed in a bamboo forest where the Wu Shao camp is nearby.

"Wait a minute. I thought we were supposed to be in the army." said Applejack. "What army? I don't see anyone." said Rarity. "We're just in a forest where we always are in a disney adventure. It's kinda predictable, don't you think." said Fluttershy. "And then, we meet the person the Book of Disney wants us to help. But, we were supposed to meet Mulan, but I don't see her." said Pinkie. "I know the army is around here somewhere." said Rainbow Dash as she pushes the bamboo out of her way and saw the camp. "There it is!" she shouted. "Wow, I didn't know that it's right there. Way to go, Rainbow Dash." said Twilight.

While talking, they hear someone talking or in this case practicing fitting in. The mane six followed the voice and saw a solider practicing her manly voice. It's not just any solider, it was Mulan. "Excuse me." said Twilight. Mulan heard her and turned around. "Whoa, who are you guys? I've never seen you in China before." she asked. "Oh, I'm sorry. Did we scare you?" Fluttershy asked. "No, I'm just curious about you guys. Do you have names?" said Mulan. "Yes, we do have names. I'm Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends. Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack." Twilight introduced. "Nice to meet you. I'm Mulan." Mulan introduced. "Nice to meet you, Mulan. We heard you practicing your manly voice which is really cool." said Rainbow Dash. "You did? Well, I have to in order for me to get into the army. It could take a miracle for that to happen." Mulan explained.

Suddenly, flames appeared out of nowhere and a shadow of a dragon appeared. "Did I hear someone ask for a miracle? Let me hear you say 'Ahh'!" he said. The mane six and Mulan screamed and hides behind a rock. "That's close enough!" the dragon said. "A ghost!" said Mulan. "Looks scarier than a ghost." said Fluttershy. "Get ready, Mulan. Your ancestors sent me here to help you deal with the army. If they find out you're a girl, the punishment is death!" the dragon explained. "Who are you?" Twilight asked.

"Who am I? Who am I? I am the guardian of lost souls. I am the professional, the in describable Mushu!" he shouted as he shows the mane six and Mulan his true self. He was a really little dragon. "Ahh! Kill it!" Rarity screamed as she began to stomp on him, but Fluttersy stopped her by pushing her out of the way. "Rarity, stop! You're hurting him!" she shouted. Mushu coughed from the dust and got himself up.

Mulan picked him up and asked, "My ancestors sent a little lizard to help me?" "Hey, dragon! Dragon! Not lizard. I don't do that tongue thing." Mushu corrected. "Oh, sorry. But since you're a dragon, how could you be that small?" Pinkie asked. "If I were my real size, you girls would've dies of fright." said Mushu. "Since when we are scared of dragons?" Applejack asked. "I don't remember, but we did face some dragons." said Rarity. "So, Mushu. Are you coming with us?" Twilight asked.

"Of course I'm coming along, girl. I have to help Mulan get her honor back. What about you girls?" said Mushu. "That's right. You need a disguise too." said Mulan. "Oh no. They're going to kill us if we go there." said Fluttershy. "That's because we're girls. How are we going to be like the men in the army?" Rarity asked. Twilight thought for a moment and said, "I know. I'll use my magic to switch our genders from female to male. I've done it before, but it's been a while." "Wait, you have a spell to do that? That's really cool." said Mulan. "Fire away, Twilight!" Rainbow Dash shouted.

Twilight took a deep breath and zaps at her friends and herself to turn into male horses. Their manes grew shorter, their hooves got bigger, their faces are square shaped instead of narrow faces mares have, and their voices got deeper. "Ok, the spell is done. What do you think?" Twilight asked. "Are you kidding? I always wanted to be a boy, that way no one can bully me for doing guy things because I'm a girl!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "I sounded a lot like Big Mac. Eeyup." said Applejack. "Oh man, I've got my Flutterguy voice again. But, at least it's for a good reason." said Fluttershy. "Look at my hooves. They're bigger than usual. Is it bad?" Pinkie asked. "What's wrong with my voice? I'm talking in a British accent." Rarity asked. "Alright, girls. Calm down. I put this spell on us just to fit in the army. They don't allow girls in the army or else they will kill them if they get into the army. This is for our safety for now. We'll be back to our normal selves when this is over." Twilight explained.

"Okey dokey, let's get the show on the road! Let's move out!" said Mushu. And they're off to the camp.

...

When they got there, the mane six and Mulan were nervous about entering in the camp and acting like a guy.

"Ok, this is it. Ready, everyone?" Twilight asked. Fluttershy gulped and starts shaking. "You'll be fine, sugar cube. Just act like a guy, do really good, and you're good to go." Applejack promised. "That's not what I'm worried about." said Fluttershy. "Well, what are you worried about?" Mulan asked. "The Huns! We're facing them once we're done training! They're much worse than getting yelled at by the trainer!" Fluttershy yelled. "But, we haven't encountered them yet. How do you know what they're like?" Applejack asked. "I just know stuff, ok." said Fluttershy. "Alright alright, let's just get into the camp." said Mushu.

Once they entered the camp, they looked at everything in sight. "Beautiful, isn't it?" Mushu asked. "They're disgusting." said Rarity as she watches a man picking his nose. "No, they're men. Now, pay attention ladies. This is getting interesting." said Mushu. "So, who's running this place?" Pinkie asked. "Well, theres always a captain in charge. Why don't we go see him so that way we can be in the army." said Rainbow Dash. "Good idea. Let's find his tent and talk to him." said Twilight.

But before they do, they got encountered by three men. Yao, Ling, and Chien Po. "What are you looking at?" Yao asked in an unpleasant way. "Nothing." said Twilight. "Punch him, that's how men say hello." said Mushu. Rainbow Dash punches Yao in the back and got into Chien Po. "Oh, Yao. You meet a friend." he said. "Good. Now, smack him on the behind. They like that." said Mushu. "Are you sure that's going to help?" Mulan asked. "All men do it." said Mushu. "Not all men do that." said Applejack. Rainbow Dash smacks Yao in the butt like Mushu said.

"I'm gonna hit you so hard that'll it'll make your ancestors dizzy." Yao warned as he grabs Rainbow Dash. "Easy there, buddy boy. He's just trying to fit in, that's all. Like we all are." said Applejack. "I'll show you fitting in!" Yao shouted as he was about to punch her, but Chien Po grabbed him and rocked him just so he can calm down. "Feel better?" Chien Po asked. "Yeah." Yao replied. "Can we get outta here?" Fluttershy asked. "Yeah, we were supposed to meet the captain." said Twilight.

"Eh, it weren't my time chicken boy." Yao muttered. Mushu hears this and shouted out, "Chicken boy?! Say that to my face, you limp noodle!" "Mushu!" Rarity scolded. "What? He started it!" Mushu shouted. Yao grabbed Mulan and was ready to punch her, but she ducked and punches Ling instead. Applejack kicked both of them to knock them out. "Well, that's what you get for treating us terribly." she said as she and the others ran away from them.

"Oh, there they go!" Ling shouted as he and Yao chased after the mane six and Mulan. The girls ran into the chicken hen and hid. Ling and Yao went passed them, but accidentally bumped into a line of men waiting to get rice by knocking them over and the rice spills. Once the mane six and Mulan got out and saw what happened, all of them men were so angry at them that they attacked them. The mane six fought back, but Mulan ducked and covered. Fluttershy did the same thing.

"Wanna piece of me?!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "How about I give you knuckle sandwiches?" Yao shouted as he tackled Rainbow Dash, but she kicked him in the crotch. Pinkie and Applejack were fighting with Ling by punching and kicking him. The others are fighting with the other men.

While everyone was fighting each other, a young man's voice shouted to them out of nowhere. "Soliders!" he shouted. Everyone immediately stopped fighting and looked at him. The man who shouted was Captain Li Shang. He wasn't alone since the emperor's council Chi Fu is with him. "They started it!" the men shouted as they pointed at the mane six and Mulan. The mane six turned around and saw the captain. Fluttershy hides behind Rainbow Dash as Mushu hides in Mulan's scarf. "Um, hello. Are you the captain?" Twilight asked nervously.

Shang walks up to them in a stern way. The mane six and Mulan immediately got up and stands up straight. "I don't need anyone causing trouble in my camp!" Shang shouted. "Sorry. Uh, I mean sorry you have to see that." said Mulan in her manly voice. "Yeah, he's right. We were just trying to fit in since we got here, captain." said Rarity. "We can't wait to get started, sir. Manly stuff, gotta kill something, fix things, cook outdoors, all that fun stuff." said Rainbow Dash. "What are your names?" Shang asked.

"Our names? Well, I'm Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends. Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy." Twilight introduced nervously. The men laughed at them because their names sound girly excpet for Shang. "Ok, what about that young man next to you?" he asked. Mulan stammered as she tries to figure out her boys name. "Your commanding officer just asked you a question." said Chi Fu. "Sheesh, just let him think." said Pinkie.

Mushu thought of a boys name quickly and whispered in Mulan's ear, "Ling. How about Ling?" "His name is Ling." said Mulan. "I didn't ask for his name. I asked for yours." said Shang. "Bob. His name is Bob!" said Pinkie. "Bob?" Shang asked. "No no. That's not his name. Pinkie just likes to call him Bob. Right?" said Rarity. "Then, what is it?!" Shang yelled.

"It's Ping!" Mulan shouted finally. "Ping?" Shang asked. "Yes, my name is Ping." said Mulan. "Is it true, gentlemen? His real name is Ping?" Shang asked the mane six. "Yes, it is. It's just that he has a hard time remembering things, that's all." said Twilight. "Alright then, you're all in." said Shang. The mane six and Mulan cheered for that. "Yes! Thank you, captain." said Rainbow Dash. "What about your father, Fa Zhou?" Shang asked. "He doesn't talk about me much." said Mulan as she spits to the ground. "I can see why, the boys an absolute lunatic." Chi Fu muttered. The men laughed at that. Rainbow Dash growled at them for laughing.

"Ok, gentlemen. Thanks to your new friends Ping and the six stallions, you'll spend the night every single grain of rice. And tomorrow, the real work begins." Shang explained. The mane six gulped at that and the three guys they were fighting with earlier growled at them. Mulan was nervous at them. "You know, we have to work on those people skills." said Mushu. The mane six nodded in agreement.

That night, Shang puts the mane six and Mulan farther away from the other tents, but it's a good thing he did. "Well, this might be a good spot to set up our camp since we need that much of the space." said Twilight. "I agree with you, Twilight. At least this Shang fellow wasn't so bad, even though he yelled at us for our names. And I have to say, he is quite handsome." said Rarity. "Any pony helping me up with the tent?" Applejack asked as she pulls the rope to make the tent higher. "I got it." said Rainbow Dash as she helps Applejack finish the tent.

Once they're done with the tent, everyone immediately went straight to sleep after a long day.

...

The next morning, the mane six and Mulan were asleep until Mushu wakes them up with an alarm clock.

"Alright, rise and shine sleeping beauties! Come on, up up up!" he shouted. "Mushu, it's too early." Rainbow Dash complained as she went back to sleep. "Come on, girls. Get up. I have breakfast for you." said Mushu. Mulan and the mane six stretched as they got up from a goodnight sleep. "Are we late?" Mulan asked. Mushu fed the girls breakfast, got them ready, and encouraged them to do well.

"Now, do well in training, listen to your teacher, and if the other kids fight you, you have to kick their butts." said Mushu. "But, I don't want to kick other kids butt." Mulan said with her mouth full. "Don't talk with your mouth full, now let me see your war faces." said Mushu. The girls faces were too full to make a war face thanks to Mushu putting the food in their mouths. "Well, I think you need some encouragement. Come on, scare me, girls." said Mushu. Rainbow Dash immediately swallowed her food and roared at Mushu's face. "That's more like it. Now, get out there and make me proud." said Mushu as he fixes Mulan's hair.

Pinkie looked outside the tent and saw the men leaving for the training. "Uh, guys. The troops just left for their training. I think we're gonna late." she said. "What do mean the troops just left?" Fluttershy asked. "They what?" Mulan asked as she rushed out of the tent and ran to the campsite. The mane six followed her. "Hey, Mulan. Wait for us!" Twilight shouted. "We don't want to be late too!" Applejack shouted.

"Wait, you forgot your sword!" Mushu shouted. "We don't need it, but thanks!" Rainbow Dash. "My little baby running off to destroy people." Mushu cried.

...

They ran as soon as they can to get to training on time. Luckily, they made it and Shang didn't show up yet.

"Phew, made it." said Pinkie. "Thanks for reminding us, Pinkie. We'll be late if it wasn't for you." said Twilight. "Your welcome." said Pinkie. "Let's be thankful Shang didn't show up yet, otherwise we'll be in big trouble." said Applejack. "Speaking of big trouble, there's big trouble coming towards us." said Rainbow Dash as she saw Yao and Ling coming towards them.

"Hello, Rainbow Dash. Are you hungry?" Ling asked. "Well, I just ate. So, the answer is no." Rainbow Dash replied. "Yeah, because I owe you a knuckle sandwich!" Yao shouted as he grabs Rainbow Dash and was about to punch her, but Twilight grabs her with her magic. "You have to get to me if you want to beat him up." she warned. "You're on, Sparkle." said Yao. But before they begin to fight, they immediatley stop when they hear Shang shouting, "Soldiers!"

Everyone got in a single line as he showed up. "You will be her silently every morning. Anyone who asks otherwise, will answer to me." he said as he takes off his jacket and grabs his bow and arrow. Mulan, Rarity, Twilight, and Fluttershy blushed red when his chest was shown. "Ooh, tough guy." Rainbow Dash said sarcastically. "Rainbow Dash." said Shang as he readies his arrow and shoots it at the high top of the pole.

"Thank you for volunteering. Retrieve the arrow." he said. Rainbow Dash takes a deep breath and stretches her wings. "I'll get that arrow, hot shot. Just so that your fellow buddies won't laugh at my awesomeness." she muttered as she went to the pole. But before she flies off to get the arrow, Shang stops her by saying, "One moment. You seem to be missing something." "What? I'm not missing anything." said Rainbow Dash. Chi Fu brought a box with two heavy golden weights. Shang puts one on each of Rainbow Dash's front hooves. "This represents disapline and this represents strength. You need both to reach the arrow. And Rainbow Dash, you can't use your wings for this task." he explained. Rainbow Dash has her jaw dropped after he said that.

She was in front of the pole and takes deep breaths. Then, she began to climb up the pole with the weights Shang gave her which is really hard. She tried to climb, but isn't good since she has hooves and will do better at it if she uses her wings. When she takes another step, she accidentally to the hard ground. "Ow." she muttered. "Ok, who's next?" Shang asked.

He chose Twilight to try, but failed just like Rainbow Dash did. Fluttershy did the same thing and hurts herself right away. Pinkie tried to cheat with her party cannon, but Shang wouldn't let her do it and she didn't do so well on it. Applejack did it with her strength, but fell with a great big thud. Rarity tried to do it the old fashioned way without the weights, but Shang wants her to use them for training. She didn't do so well since she's not good at lifting heavy things. Mulan tried to succeed, but fell on her butt. After all of the men tried it, they were all exhausted just like that.

"We got a long way to go." Shang muttered.

...

During the next few days, the mane six and Mulan try to compete the tasks Shang gave them, but failed miserably since they've never done it before. True, the mane six have defeated many villains, but they've never been trained to defeat them. That's the problem.

They tried to cheat on the task, but didn't work due to Shang's strictness. Mulan gets teased at by Yao and Ling and Rainbow Dash keeps getting into fights with them. Fluttershy is scared of every task she gets by hiding, ducking, screaming in fright, and doesn't know how to defend herself. Chi Fu writes down the mistakes they've been making during training which makes Pinkie and Applejack suspicious on what he's doing. But at every moment the girls do, it always disappoints Shang.

One night, he had enough and wants the mane six and Mulan to leave the camp for good. "You guys are causing too much trouble in this camp and I want you pack up and go home. You're through." he said as he got all of their stuff and forces them to leave. Then, he left to continue the training.

As they were about to leave, Rainbow Dash never stopped looking at the arrow at the pole. "Hey guys. There's still a way to impress Shang." she said. "How? We impressed him too much and he didn't appreciate us one bit." said Twilight. "Well, we can by doing something no one has ever done before. No one has got that arrow yet, we can still try and get it." Rainbow Dash explained.

That gave Mulan an idea. "I'll do it. I've been wanting to impress Shang ever since I met him. I'll go get the weights." she said. Once she got them out, she puts both of them on each wrist and begins climbing the pole. She fell the first time, but she tried again. This time, she's doing much better than last time. As she keeps climbing, the mane six encourages her to keep going and never stop. "Go, Mulan, go!" Fluttershy shouted. "You can do this!" Rainbow Dash shouted.

Everyone watched as Mulan reached to the top and got the arrow. When Shang came out of his tent to see what's going on, he saw her completing the task finally as she throws the arrow down at him. Mulan smiled at him for what she did to him. Finally, the mane six and a Mulan have impressed Shang and he has invited them back to the army where they can continue their training.

Now, they've been succeeding at every task and did very well on it. They are ready to get down to business to defeat the Huns.

...

That night, the mane six celebrated their success by taking a swim in the lake.

"We did it, girls. We are now part of the army. To celebrate it, we are taking a nice swim just to keep us relaxed for tomorrow." said Twilight. "Too bad Mulan can't join us tonight, she would have so much fun." said Rainbow Dash. "I know. Let her sleep, Rainbow Dash. She needs it after the hard work she's been doing with us." said Twilight. "What are we waiting for? Let's dive in!" Pinkie shouted as she splashed into the water. The rest splashed in as well. "Hey, the waters great. Even though it's night time and the water gets cold when the suns not out." said Fluttershy.

While swimming, they hear three familiar voices coming to the lake. It was Yao, Ling, and Chien Po. "It's them! Hide!" Pinkie shouted as she hides underneath the water. "Hey, Rainbow Dash! Twilight Sparkle!" Yao shouted. "Oh, hey guys. I didn't know you would show up at this hour. We were just washing up our sweat today and now we're clean. Bye." said Rainbow Dash. "Yes, we have a lot of stuff to do for the captain tomorrow and we really need this rest." said Twilight.

"Hey, wait. I know we were jerks to you guys when you first came to the camp. So, let's start over. Hi, I'm Ling." said Ling as he shakes Twilight's hoof. "Nice to meet you, Ling." said Applejack. "And I'm Chien Po." Chien Po introduced. "Hello, Chien Po." said Fluttershy. "And I am Yao, King of the rock. And there's nothing you girls can do about it." Yao introduced.

The mane six felt very uncomfortable about being surrounded by naked men and wanted to leave. So, Pinkie hatched a plan by going underwater and bites Ling's butt. "Ouch, something bit me." Ling cried. "It was a snake that bit you." Pinkie told him. "A snake?!" Ling shouted as he, Yao and Chien Po got out of the water immediatley and went on the rock nearby. This was the chance for the mane six to escape and head back to their tent.

"Boy, that was close. I felt really uncomfortable back there." said Rarity. "You should thank me, since I'm the one who bit Ling in the butt." said Pinkie as she washes her mouth. "That's was you? I thought you said a snake bit him." said Applejack. "I made it up, so we can get out of there quick enough." Pinkie explained. "That was a cool plan, Pinkie." said Rainbow Dash.

"I never wanted to see a naked man again." said Twilight. But then, more men naked are coming to the lake which disgusts the mane six. "You were saying?" Rarity asked. "Don't look at me, I'm not biting anymore butts." said Pinkie. "That was the most disgusting thing I have ever seen." said Fluttershy.

So, they went back to the camp to get some sleep.

...

As they were walking through Shang's tent, they can hear him and Chi Fu arguing about going into battle or not.

"You think they are ready to fight? Humph! They would wait a minute to face the Huns!" Chi Fu shouted. "They completed their training!" Shang shouted. "Those boys are nothing to be soliders and you are to be captain. Once the general reads my report, your troops will never see battle. And what about the six ponies that were showing off? They are nothing but scoundrels and wild animals." Chi Fu explained.

"What? Did you just hear what that guy just called us? We're more than wild animals!" Rainbow Dash whispered. "What does he mean we can't go into war? We have to otherwise the Huns will immediately get to the emperor and take over China." Twilight whispered. "Well, we have to do something about it." said Rarity. "Any pony got ideas?" Applejack asked.

After the argument is over, Shang angrily walked out of the tent and saw the mane six. "Hey, captain. Fine evening, isn't it?" said Twilight. "Mind if I beat up Chi Fu for ya?" Rainbow Dash asked. Shang just looked at them and walked away. "For what it's worth, I think you're a great captain." said Rainbow Dash. Shang stopped and smiled a little bit. Then he kept walking. "Tell Ping I said goodnight for him." he said. Rainbow Dash smiled.

"That was nice of him. I think he cares about Mulan." said Fluttershy. "Me too. Me might care about us as well." said Rarity. "Ok, back to business. We need to think of something that'll get us to the war. Otherwise the Huns would've invaded China by now." said Twilight. "I have an idea. Why don't we write a fake letter to Chi Fu and say it's from the General? He'll tell Shang about it and we go to war asap." said Applejack. "A fake letter? Not bad, Applejack. Let's do it." said Twilight.

When they sneak into the tent when Chi Fu leaves for a bath, they got a piece of paper and a feather to write on. "I'll write the letter. I know the Chinese language and knows how to write it." said Twilight as she begins writing. Once she's done writing, she wrapped it up into a roll and packed it.

So in order to give Chi Fu that letter, Fluttershy and Applejack were in disguise as a solider and a noble steed. Fluttershy is the moose and Applejack is the solider. "Ok, ready? Your disguises are all set." said Rarity. "Let's just get this over with." said Fluttershy as she and Applejack went to the lake where Chi Fu is to give him that letter.

They saw him getting out of the water and yelling at the boys. "You owe me a new pair of slippers! And I do not squeal like a girl." he shouted as he accidentally bumps into Fluttershy and he screamed like a girl. "Urgent news from the general." Applejack siad with a really deep voice. Chi Fu said nothing, but standing there staring at the two. "What's the matter? Never seen black and white before?" Applejack asked as she gives Chi Fu the letter.

Chi Fu looks at her in a suspicious way and asked, "Who are you?" "Excuse me? I'm asking that question, who are you? We're in a war man? There's no time for stupid questions! I should have your hat for that, skinny jeans. Now, carry on before I report you!" Applejack yelled as she smacked him in the nose and ran off with Fluttershy.

After they ran off, they met up with the rest of the mane six and hide in the bush. "How'd it go?" Twilight asked. "Ok. Chi Fu stared at us like he knows us, so I smacked him in the nose for that." Applejack explained. "I never really like him in the first place." said Fluttershy. "Well, at least you two gave him the letter. I'm sure he's telling Shang about it right now." said Twilight.

When she said that, they hear Chi Fu shouting out, "Captain! Urgent news from the general! We have to meet him at the mountains!" The mane six cheered silently as they are going to battle the Huns.

"Pack your bags, girls. We're moving out!" said Twilight.

...

The next day, the soliders are off to the mountains to defeat the Huns thanks to the mane six and that letter they gave Chi Fu.

They've been walking for hours and hours without a single sight of the soliders from another army. "Are we there yet?" Rainbow Dash asked. "I don't know, but the mountains seem really far away and can take forever to get there on foot." said Twilight. "This is taking forever. I rarely walk like this." Rarity complained. "You should see me. I've been dragging this carriage of cannons since seven am." said Applejack. "I'm sure we'll be at the mountains any minute." said Fluttershy.

Suddenly, everyone stopped when they saw something terrible. "Hey, why'd you all stop?" Twilight asked as she went next to Mulan. She gasped at what she saw. Her freinds followed her and are in great shock at the sight. "What the hay just happened here?" Applejack asked.

What they saw was a village destroyed by the Huns. Everything in sight was destroyed and nothing was left. "Look at this place, it's awful." said Rarity. "It looks like the Huns were here already. We should've been here earlier." said Rainbow Dash. "Exarch for survivors." Shang ordered. Everyone explored the village to see if anyone from the attack is still alive, but found no one.

But, Mulan found a doll that once belonged to a little girl. "You found a doll? What happened to the little girl who owned that doll?" Pinkie asked. "I don't know." Mulan replied. Pinkie gasped and starts to shed tears. Rainbow Dash and Shang searched as well, but found nothing but ash. "I don't understand. My father should've been here." he said. "Your dad works in the army?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Captain!" Applejack shouted. Shang walked up to her and asked, "What'd you find?" "You might wanna see this." said Applejack as she shows him the entire army dead. Shang was in shock and horror when he saw the dead army. Chien Po showed up with a helmet in his hands. "The general." he muttered as he gave Shang the helmet. Shang was saddened at this because that helmet belonged to his father and is killed by the Hun army. "Shang, are you okay?" Rainbow Dash asked.

Shang said nothing to her, but instead walking away mourning the death of his father. The mane six watched the terrible scene. "Oh no. The Huns are getting stronger by the minute." said Twilight. "What's Shang doing there?" Pinkie asked. "He lost someone very close to him." Rainbow Dash answered. The mane six gasped silently. "I'll go talk to him." said Mulan as she went to Shang so she can comfort him.

She went close to him and said to him, "I'm sorry." Shang took a deep breath and stood up to see her. He pats her on the shoulder and walked off. "So, now what?" Fluttershy asked. "The Huns are moving quickly. We'll make better time to get through the mountains. We're the only hope for the emperor now. Move out." Shang explained.

The mane six nodded to each other in agreement. "Come on, we can't let those Huns get away with this." said Rainbow Dash. "Rainbow Dash is right. We have to move on." said Mulan.

The army moved on sadly after witnessing what the Huns have done and continued to go find them.

...

Moments of silence in the mountains has been going on to the army and the mane six as they keep marching forward.

But, it all stopped when a cannon went off in the carriage Applejack is holding onto. "What the hay?!" she shouted. "What was that?" Twilight asked. Mulan turned around and saw Mushu in the hole. "Mushu." Rainbow Dash growled.

Shang appeared in front of them and asked, "What happened?!" The mane six and Mulan stammered at the question, don't know what to say in the situation. "You just gave away our position! Now that." Shang yelled as he was shot in the shoulder by an arrow. He fell off his horse after he was shot. "Shang!" Twilight shouted. "Say, where did that arrow come from?" Rarity asked.

The arrow came from the Hun army and the mane six saw them shooting arrows with flames. "We're being attacked! Take cover!" Pinkie shouted. Everyone ran for their lives so they won't get hit by the arrows. Rainbow Dash helps Shang up and got the arrow off of his shoulder. "Thanks, Rainbow Dash. I owe you one." he said.

While avoiding the arrows, the carriage Applejack is dragging was set on fire which frightens her because it'll explode. "Save the cannons!" Shang shouted. The men managed to save a few cannons from the carriage and took them to somewhere else. "Guys, a little help here!" Applejack shouted as she tries to get the rope off of her, but is stuck. Mulan went to her and cuts off the rope to set her free. "Thanks, Mulan. I mean, Ping." she said. Before they make a run for it, the carriage explodes and both of them fell to the snowy ground. Mushu falls to the snow and said, "Oh, sure. Save her and not me." Applejack grabbed him and puts him on her back.

When everyone got safety, they readied their cannons to shoot at the Huns. "Fire!" Shang ordered. The cannons were fired and aims at the Huns, but they made a cover as they land on the hill they're on. Chi Fu hides from the battle and Fluttershy takes a pity on him. "Coward." she said. "Come on, Fluttershy. We need to get rid of these Huns!" Pinkie shouted. "Fire!" Shang ordered as the cannons fire at the Huns and probably got some.

But, everything went quiet all of the sudden. "Is that it?" Applejack asked. "I don't think so." Twilight answered. She was right, the battle's not over yet. Up on the hills, there were more Huns coming towards them waiting for the kill. The Hun in the middle was their ruthless leader, Shan Yu. Mulan saw the army in horror and Shang is ready to fight. "That's a lot of Huns." said Rarity. "Don't worry, we can take them!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "Prepare to fight. If we die, we die with honor." said Shang as he readies his sword.

They watch as Shan Yu charge towards the army and his fellow Huns follow him. "Yao, aim the cannon at Shan Yu." Shang ordered. As the mane six were about to fight, Mulan has an idea to get rid of the Huns really quick. "What are you doing?" Rainbow Dash asked. "I know how to defeat the Huns." Mulan whispered. "Go for it." said Rainbow Dash. Mulan puts her sword down and grabs the cannon from Yao. She ran off with Rainbow Dash. "Ping, come back! Rainbow Dash!" Shang shouted. "Hold on, guys." Twilight shouted as she follows Mulan and Rainbow Dash.

They stopped running as they landed their cannon to aim at it. "Ok, light it up. Quickly!" Rainbow Dash shouted as she got hit by a falcon who works for the Huns and stole the last cannon. Twilight made it to them just in time. "Oh man. That was the only way to stop them." said Mulan. "Not for long. Twilight, use your magic." Rainbow Dash ordered. "Why?" Twilight asked. "Just do it so we can kill the Hun leader!" Rainbow Dash shouted.

Twilight readies her magic to zap Shan Yu, but Mulan aims her magic at the mountains. "You missed! How could you miss?! He was three feet in front of you!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "That wasn't my plan." said Mulan. Her plan was to cause a huge avalanche to bury the Hun army in solid cold. "Oh, the Avalanche was your plan? Ok, that's much better than Shang's plan." said Rainbow Dash.

As the Avalanche falls towards the Hun army, Shan Yu went enraged and stared at the girls. Mulan was terrified at him as Rainbow Dash and Twilight try to protect her. Shan Yu pulls out his sword and slashes Mulan in the stomach. "Mulan!" Twilight cried. Mulan fell to the ground and holds her stomach. "Take that!" Rainbow Dash shouted as she throws as snowball at Shan Yu, blinding him. "Come on, let's get outta here!" Twilight shouted.

Shang saw what Mulan had caused and makes a run for it. The men ran from the Avalanche as well by hiding underneath the rock. The girls went to Rainbow Dash and Twilight to help them get through the Avalanche. "Hop onto my back!" Applejack shouted to Mulan. Mulan got on her back as Shang reaches out for her hand. Mulan grabs his hand just in time, but the Avalanche pulls him away from them. Twilight, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy managed to get Pinkie and Rarity out of the Avalanche.

"Where are they?" Fluttershy asked. "I don't know, but let's go find them." said Twilight. "Mulan! Mulan!" Mushu called in the snow. "Mushu!" Pinkie shouted as she picks him up from the snow. "Thanks, girls. I can't find Mulan anywhere in this Avalanche." said Mushu. "Well, we are finding her and Shang." said Twilight.

Thankfully, they found Applejack and Mulan trying to get out of the snow. They also found Shang unconscious as he flows though the snow. "There they are! What's the plan?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Fluttershy and Rarity, you go save Shang in the snow. The rest of us will help Mulan and Applejack." Twilight demanded. Fluttershy and Rarity pulls Shang out of the snow just in time. Twilight and Rainbow Dash pulls both Mulan and Applejack out of the snow as well. "Thanks, guys. I thought we were gonna be icicles." said Applejack. "Come on, let's get back to the army." said Twilight as she and the others flew up to the mountains where the rest of the army is.

After the Avalanche was over and the mane six saving Mulan and Shang, the army helped them up to get there safely. "Step back, guys. Give them some air." said Ling. The mane six breathed for air after their rescue mission and watches Shang getting up. "Ping, guys. You were the craziest men I've ever met. For that I owe you my life. From now on, you have my trust." he said as he puts his hand on Mulan's shoulder. "Let's hear it for Ping, the bravest of us all!" Ling shouted. "You're king of the mountain!" Yao shouted. "The mane six were awesome!" Chien Po shouted.

As Shang helps Mulan up, she cried out in pain and collapses to the ground. Shang caught her and asked, "Ping, what's wrong?" Mulan groaned in pain as she shows Shang and the mane six her wound where Shan Yu hit her. The mane six gasped at the sight of her injury. "He's wounded, get help!" Shang shouted. "Don't worry, Shang. I can heal him in no time." said Rarity. "You heal?" Shang asked. "Of course I can heal. I have healing powers, but I need a tent for me and Ping." Rarity explained.

"Ping, hold on." said Shang as he holds Mulan close to him when she passed out.

...

The mane six built a tent for Mulan and Rarity so they can deal with the wound. Shang carries Mulan to the tent and Rarity went in after him.

"Are you sure you can heal him with your healing powers?" Shang asked in worrisome. "Of course I will. It'll be as quick as a cannon." said Rarity as she closes the tent on Shang so she can do the work privately. Everyone else waited outside for a while. What's happening towards Chi Fu makes him very suspicious towards the mane six and Mulan. So, he went to the tent to check it out. "No, don't go in there!" Pinkie shouted.

When he got in the tent, he saw that Ping is actually a girl. After Rarity healed her, she turned around and saw Chi Fu. "What are you doing? Get out, now!" Rarity shouted. "So, it's true." said Chi Fu as he grabs Mulan and drags her out of the tent. "Let go of her, right now! Do you hear me?" Rarity shouted as he attacked Chi Fu. Chi Fu managed to drag both of them out of the tent and reveal them to the whole army.

"Let go of me! Let go of me!" Rarity shouted. "What is going on, Chi Fu? Why are you dragging Ping and Rarity?" Shang asked. "I knew there was something wrong with Ping. Ping is a woman!" Chi Fu explained as he undid Mulan's hair and showed it to everyone. The whole army gasped at this. "Oh no." said Twilight. Chi Fu threw Mulan into the snow and said, "Treacherous snake." The mane six immediatley went towards Mulan and protected her from Chi Fu and the rest of the men. "Leave her alone!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "My name is Mulan. I did it to save my father." Mulan explained.

"What's going on here? Tell me what's happening!" Shang asked. Twilight took a deep breath and explained sadly, "Shang, we wanted to tell you this for a long time. The truth is we are all girls. I cast a spell on me and my friends to look like boys so we can fit in and help Mulan get her honor. This is what we really look like." She used her magic to turn her and her friends back to girls again. "I'm so sorry, Shang. I'm so sorry." said Rainbow Dash. Shang gasped in horror as he realizes the truth.

"High treason!" Chi Fu shouted. "I didn't mean to go this far!" Rarity shouted. "Ultimate dishonor!" Chi Fu shouted. "It was the only way. Please, believe us." Mulan pleaded. Chi Fu did not believe them one bit. He wants the mane six and Mulan to be executed for what they did, no matter if they saved everyone from the Huns. "Captain." said Chi Fu.

Shang looked at them in disappointment and said to them, "A life for a life. My debt has been repaid." Then, he walked away from them. "Move out!" he shouted. "But, you can't just." said Chi Fu. Shang grabbed him in the collar and said, "I said, move out!" The army begins to leave the mountain, leaving the mane six and Mulan behind.

Mulan bowed down her head and felt terrible. Applejack went to her and hugged her in comfort.

They watch as the army march away without a hero.

...

As the sky darkens, the mane six try to keep themselves warm from the cold in the mountains.

"That was this close. This close. Impressing the ancestors, being on top again. Man, all of my fine work." said Mushu. "Hey, we did help you and Mulan." said Twilight. "That counts." said Mushu. "So, now what? The army left us for being girls. It's a good thing we didn't get killed." said Fluttershy. "That's because we saved the entire army from the Huns and the Avalanche. It's a good thing Shang has a heart of gold, even though he was strict and stubborn." said Rainbow Dash.

"I should never have home." said Mulan. "Oh, come on Mulan. You did it to save your father. Who knew we would shaming everybody and losing all of our friends. You know, you just gotta let things go." said Applejack. "Maybe I didn't go for my father. Maybe what I really wanted was to prove I can do things right. So when I look in the mirror, I see something worth while. But, I was wrong. I see nothing!" Mulan explained as she looks at herself in her helmet and throws it. "You see yourself in a mirror to see who you are?" Rainbow Dash asked. Mulan nodded yes.

"The truth is we're both frauds. Your ancestors never sent me, they don't even like me. You risk your life to help the people you love, I risked your life to help myself. At least we have good intentions." Mushu explained. "So, you lied about the ancestors sending you here?" Applejack asked. "Yes, I have to. I sended myself here to get my guardianship back." Mushu explained. "Oh, Mushu." said Fluttershy.

"I have to face my father sooner or later. Let's go home." said Mulan. "Yeah, it's not gonna be pretty. I'm sure your family is worried sick about you." said Applejack. "Don't worry, we're in this together. All of us." said Twilight. "Thanks, girls. You really helped me a lot. You're such wonderful friends." said Mulan.

But before they can go home, they hear a familiar scream coming down from the mountains. The mane six and Mulan looked down and saw Shan Yu and some of his men popping out of the snow. That must mean they survived the Avalanche and heading towards the imperial city. "What? How is it possible? How is he still alive?" Rainbow Dash asked. "He must be a really strong person!" said Rarity. "They're heading towards the city. Everyone's in danger." said Applejack.

Mulan thought fast and got her sword ready. "Um, home is that way." said Mushu. "We have to do something." said Mulan. "Shang and the others are in trouble." said Rainbow Dash. "Did you see those Huns? They pooped out of the snow, like daisies!" Mushu shouted. "There's no time, we have to go after them." said Twilight. "Are we in this together or not?" Mulan asked. "Well, let's go kick some hunny buns." said Mushu.

And they're off to the city to stop Shan Yu and his survivors.

...

When they got to the city, they saw Shang and the army in the parade looking sad about them.

"There's Shang! Over there!" Pinkie shouted. "Perfect. Let's warn him about the Huns." said Twilight. Mulan and the girls got into the parade to talk to Shang about the Huns. "Shang!" Mulan shouted as she went close to him. "Mulan? Girls?" Shang asked. "The Huns are alive! They're in the city!" Mulan warned. "You don't belong here, go home." said Shang as he walks away.

Rainbow Dash went next to him and told him, "Shang, we saw in the mountains. Alive. You have to believe us!" "Why should I?" Shang asked. This makes Pinkie very angry, so angry that she went in front of Shang and shouted, "THATS IT! I CANT TAKE THIS ANY ORE! YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE US, WEVE BEEN TELLING YOU THE TRUTH ALL THIS TIME AND YOU NEVER LISTEN TO US! IS IT BECUASE WERE GIRLS AND YOU GUYS DONT LIKE GIRLS! YOU SAID YOU TRUST US, WHY IS MULAN ANY DIFFRENT?! ARE WE DIFFERENT TO YOU?!" Shang just walked away, ignoring the words Pinkie just shouted out. "Are you kidding me?!" Pinkie shouted. "Calm down, Pinkie. We have to think of something else to let everyone know that the Huns are here." said Twilight.

The celebration of the army hosted by the emperor himself is about to begin and the mane six must think fast before the Huns show up. "Come on, girls. We have to find someone who can believe in us." said Mulan as she and the girls ran into the crowd. When they did, no one listened to them.

"No one would listen." said Mulan. "Is it because were girls?" Pinkie asked. "I don't know, they're probably busy with the celebration going on." said Rainbow Dash. "Oh, I have a feeling the Huns are going to show up any minute now." Applejack said nervously. But, she was right. The crowd saw Shan Yu on the roof in horror. "Yep, you're right. Boy, are they quick." said Twilight.

Suddenly, the other Huns came out from a dragon costume and snatched the emperor just like that while Shang and the others try to catch up. But, the Huns locked the door shut so no one can get in. Shan Yu laughed evilly up above at them. Rainbow Dash growled at him.

They managed to catch up to the army and saw them breaking though the door. "They'll never reach the emperor in time." said Rarity. "But, we will. Come on, I have an idea." said Mulan as she leads the mane six to her plan. Shang watches them in curiosity and decides to follow them.

Her plan was to have her and the girls be in disguise as concubines to distract the Huns and beat them up to save the emperor. They use their ribbons to climb up the poles to get inside the palace. "Ready, girls?" Mulan asked. "Ready." said the mane six. Shang showed up out of nowhere and said, "Ready." The mane six and Mulan looked at him in excitement. "Well, look who joined the party." said Rainbow Dash.

"Now, let's go save the emperor." said Twilight as everyone climbs up the poles to get inside the palace.

...

When they finally went in and saw the Huns guarding the door where the emperor and Shan Yu is, they are ready to set up the plan.

"Ok, any questions?" Mulan asked quietly. "Nope. We're ready to get some action going." said Twilight. So, the mane six and Mulan went out there to distract the Huns. The Huns looked suspicious on them, but not long when Rainbow Dash takes down one of them. Fluttershy and Applejack buttheaded them on each other to knock them out. Rarity used her martial arts skills to attack one of them. Mulan did the same thing to one and puts his bow on his neck. Pinkie blew up the falcon with her party cannon and lost his feathers.

"Shang, go!" Twilight shouted. Shang immediatley opened the door wide and ran to get the emperor. Twilight followed him. They saved the emperor just in time before Shan Yu kills him. Twilight pushes him out of the way and said, "Sorry, your majesty. We have to save you from him." Shang was busy fighting with Shan Yu and manages to win. "You're not getting away with this." he growled. "Oh, we are. Just wait and see." said Twilight as her friends and Mulan catches up to them for the emperor.

"Fluttershy, get the emperor!" Mulan ordered. Fluttershy picks up the emperor and takes him to safety down below. The rest followed them except for Rainbow Dash and Mulan. They want to help Shang defeat Shan Yu, but he beats him until he's knocked out. "No." Rainbow Dash muttered. "Come on!" Applejack shouted. "I can't leave him behind!" Rainbow Dash shouted back. Shan Yu charges at Rainbow Dash and Mulan, but she cuts the rope with his sword and got out of the way. "No!" Shan Yu growled.

"Wake up! Wake up!" Rainbow Dash shouted as she shakes Shang to wake him up. Shang woke up quickly before Shan Yu comes towards him to beat him up again. "You. You took away my victory!" he growled. "Stay behind me, Rainbow Dash. It'll be okay." Shang promised. "She won't be okay. She will die just like you will." said Shan Yu as he grabs Rainbow Dash away from Shang and strangled her.

Mulan saw this and throws her shoe at him. "No! I did!" she said as she shows Shan Yu who she was to him. She was the exact same solider that the Avalanche and Rainbow Dash was the pony who blinded him with snow so she can protect her. "The solider form the mountains." he muttered as he lets go of Rainbow Dash and chases after Mulan. "Mulan, no." Rainbow Dash said as she goes after the both of them.

She saw Mulan being chased by Shan Yu as he was about to kill her. He grabs her wrist and throws her to the ground. Before he can raise his sword to end her life, Rainbow Dash zoomed in and knocked him to the ground. "LEAVE HER ALONE!" she shouted. "You! I should've killed you when I had the chance!" Shan Yu yelled. Rainbow Dash and Mulan ran for their lives and they flew up to the roof where they can be safe.

"Thanks, Rainbow Dash." said Mulan. "Your welcome. So, any ideas?" Rainbow Dash asked. Mulan saw the firework tower and said, "Yes, I do. Let's blow him up with fireworks." "Oh, I like the sound of that." said Rainbow Dash. "But, we need a big rocket and get the two men out of there." said Mulan. "I'm on it." said Rainbow Dash as she went to get a big rocket for the plan and scares away the two men.

When she came back with the rocket, Shan Yu pops out of nowhere and will get on last chance to kill Mulan once and for all. "It looks like no one is going to save you." he said as he strikes with his sword, but Mulan uses her fan to block the attack and takes the sword from him. "Not quite. Ready, Rainbow Dash?" Mulan asked. "Ready, sister." said Rainbow Dash as she lights the rocket with a match and aims it at Shan Yu. Mulan got out of the way as the rocket flew by and caught him. Shan Yu was blown up into smithereens.

As the tower explodes, Mulan and Rainbow Dash got out in time and lands near Shang. Shang caught Mulan and saw her. Rainbow Dash landed safely where she is greeted by her friends. "You did it! You did it!" Pinkie shouted as she squeezed her. "We are so proud of you, Rainbow Dash." said Twilight. "Thanks guys. I did it for Mulan." said Rainbow Dash as she watches Mulan and Shang hugging each other.

They watch the fireworks keep going in happiness.

...

Before they celebrate their victory, Chi Fu came out in anger and is covered in smoke.

"Where is she? Now, she's done it! What a mess! Stand aside, that creatures not worth protecting." he shouted. The mane six protected Mulan from the sizzling man and Shang is telling him off. "She's a hero, and so are these girls!" Shang shouted. "Yeah, tell him Shang!" said Pinkie. "But, they're women. Plus, Mulan isn't worth anything." said Chi Fu. Shang grabs him in the collar and shouted, "Listen, you pompous!" But, he stopped when he hear the emperor coming.

"That is enough!" the emperor shouted. The mane six and Shang saw him in shock and surprisement. "Your majesty, I can explain." Shang said. The emperor stopped him and wants to see the mane six and Mulan. They bowed down to him in respect.

"I've heard a great deal about you, Fa Mulan. You stole your father's armor, ran away from home, impersonated as a solider, deceived your commanding officer, dishonored the Chinese army, destroyed my palace, and you have saved us all." he said as he bowed to her. Mulan was in shock that he bowed to her.

Then, everyone else bowed to her as a thank you for saving China. "You did it, Mulan. You deserve it." said Rainbow Dash. "Chi Fu." said the emperor. "Your Exellency," Chi Fu said. "See to it that these young ladies are new members of my council." said the emperor. "What? There is nothing open, your majesty." said Chi Fu. "Very well, you can have his job." said the emperor. "What?" Chi Fu asked. "Oh yeah, one more thing." said Rainbow Dash as she kicked him in the crotch.

"With all do respect, your excellency. I think I've been away from home long enough." said Mulan. "Yes, sir. My friends and I have other missions to attend." said Twilight. "Then, take this. So, the world will know what you have done for me." said the emperor as he gives Mulan his pendant. "And this, so the world will know what you have done for China." said the emperor as he gives Mulan Shan Yu's sword. Happy, Mulan hugged him. "Is she allowed to do that?" Applejack asked.

Mulan went to the mane six and said to them, "Girls, I want to thank you so much for helping me. Now, I have honor to bring for my family." "Your welcome, Mulan." said Twilight. "Rainbow Dash, I want you to have this. As a reminder of being my savior." said Mulan as she gives Rainbow Dash her pendant and puts it around her neck. "Thanks, Mulan. I really love it." said Rainbow Dash as she hugs Mulan. "You know, I kinda realize something." said Rarity as she trips Mulan to let her fall into Shang's arms. They bothe blushed at each other.

"Well, girls. I think it's time for us to go." said Twilight. "You're leaving already?" Mulan asked. "We will miss you." said Shang. "I'll miss you even more. After all, you told me so many things." said Rainbow Dash.

"Bye, Mulan. Bye, Shang. Bye, Mushu. Bye, emperor." said the girls as they disappeared. "Bye girls." everyone said.

...

When the Book of Disney dropped them off from the adventure, Rainbow Dash looked very proud.

"Wow, Rainbow Dash. That pendant looks really good on you." said Rarity. "Yeah, it does. And it's a good thing I'm keeping it." said Rainbow Dash.

...

Later that night, Rainbow Dash went to the Disney Journal and writes her lesson. She wrote,

"What I learned today is about being who I am. Being myself is easy, but it's not easy to be someone else. If you don't know who you are, look in the mirror and see. It'll show you who you are on the inside. I'll probably do that someday. If you show everyone who you are, they'll appreciate you for that. Don't hide your true self, just show them who you are."
