CANTERLOT MUSIC ROOM 12:10 PM

After they all make the signs and posters, the six go to the music room with their poster on the door, where they're choosing their instruments for the showcase except the saddened Sunset.

"Ugh, I'm never gonna let that down.", Sunset laments critically.

"You were pretty bad at the Fall Formal, when Garfield and his friends were there.", Fluttershy pointed out, grabbing her tambourine for the showcase.

A flashback shows Sunset Shimmer, at the time when the Fall Formal was held transforming into her demon form as she dons the crown, laughing about her new look as the white light fades. The five, Twilight and Garfield and his friends witness this.

The flashback ends as Sunset says, "A demon. I turned into a raging she-demon."

"AND tried to turn everyone here into teenage zombies for your personal army.", adds Pinkie Pie.

"Oh, darling. You have us, and we forgiven you for your past...", Rarity promises, clearing her throat to think of another appropriate word. "...boo-boos."

"To be honest, I'd say the whole experience brought everyone at Canterlot High closer than ever before!", realizes Applejack, telling what the community happened to everyone after the Fall Formal months ago while getting her bass guitar ready.

The five girls except Sunset were about to sing, with their instruments for the musical showcase.

"One! Two! Three!", prepared Pinkie, counting off with her drumsticks to start their song. This song was about the students of Canterlot High being more social five months after the Fall Formal.

All 5: There was a time we were apart, but that's behind us now,

See how we've made a brand new start, and the future's looking up, (Oh, oh)

And when you walk these halls, you feel it anywhere,

Yeah, we're the Wondercolts forever, oh yeah!

We are all together! (Oh, oh, oh-h-h, oh)

Now it's better than ever! (Oh, oh, oh-h-h, oh)

You can feel it, we are back, yes, I'm so glad that we're better...

Better than ever! (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)

Oh yeah, we're better than ever! (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)

As the chorus was completed, the five singing people gains their pony ears, wings and hair extension-like tails from the first movie, and outside the school, the human versions of Big Macintosh, The Cutie Mark Crusaders, Snips and Snails, and Trixie take pictures by Photo Finish.

Rainbow Dash: There was a time we couldn't see past the differences,

Applejack: That seperated you and me, and it left us on our own,

Pinkie Pie: But now you walk these halls and friends are everywhere...

All 5: Yeah, we're the Wondercolts forever, oh yeah!

During this, Sunset was enjoying this song, clapping, tapping her feet and snapping her fingers to the rhythm.

We are all together! (Oh, oh, oh-h-h, oh)

Now it's better than ever! (Oh, oh, oh-h-h, oh)

Now that we are back on track, yes, I'm so glad that we're better...

Better than ever! (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)

Oh yeah, we're better than ever! (3x) (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh; 2x)

The song ends, as their pony ears, wings and hair extension-like tails disappear. As a matter of fact, right now, since the musical showcase has started with their previous five adventures prior to the events right now, these three upgrades are only summoned by the power of music.

Sunset applauded the Humane Five's performance, clapping.

"I still can't believe that happens when we play.", commented Rarity, after discovering she and her friends get these upgrades while singing their performances. "Ooh! I've got to look into some new accessories. Something that looks good in a longer ponytail. Ooh! Maybe some clip-on earrings for when I get those adorable pony ears.", Rarity suggests her accessories.

"I just wonder why it happens. Princess Twilight took her crown back to Equestria with Garfield and his friends. Shouldn't that mean they took all the magic back with them?", wondered Applejack.

"Who cares why it happens? It makes my band totally awesome!", acknowledged Rainbow Dash.

Rarity gasps at the sound of this.

"Your band?!", gasps Rarity.

"Duh! It was my idea to start the Rainbooms so we could be in the showcase. Plus I'm the lead singer and guitarist.", says Rainbow Dash.

"Well, Garfield did say that he and his friends will sing songs in a form of medleys.", Rarity guessed.

They heard a knock on the door and someone opens it.

It was Flash Sentry.

"Uh...heard you outside. You guys are sounding really tight.", Flash Sentry notices, coming in.

"Uh, we're getting there. Rarity's still coming in a little late on the second verse, and Applejack's bass solo could use a little work. They'll get it together in time for the Showcase.", Rainbow says to Flash, as Applejack and Rarity look at each other, unsatisfied.

"Uh, I-I don't suppose any of our friends from, uh...out of town might come? Uh, it being a special charity event and all.", asks Flash, about Twilight, Garfield and his friends "out of town".

"Sorry, Flash. I don't think Twilight, Garfield and his friends gonna come back at Canterlot High anytime soon.", Applejack answered sorrowfully.

Flash chuckles a bit and says, "Oh, yeah. Okay. I just, you know, thought I'd ask.", pointing at the six girls. "And Garfield is doubtfully the funniest animal I've ever known, along with his friends. Uh, keep on...rockin' it!" Flash starts to leave as he backs up. His back hits the drywall, and he turns his body around and says goodbye to the six.

"Well, someone is quite the smitten kitten.", chuckled Rarity, hinting Sunset that Flash was her ex-boyfriend who broke up with her before the events of the first film, making her sad. "Oh, sorry. I always forget you and Flash used to be an item.", she frowned.

"It's okay. Flash is a great guy and all, but I never really "liked him" liked him. I was just using him to become more popular.", Sunset explains, realizing that she's talking about the times when she was mean because she became nice. "The old me really was just awful, wasn't she?"

The five girls agree.

"But the important thing is that you've finally turned yourself around.", Applejack says to Sunset, encouraging Sunset.

"Thanks, Applejack. But I'm not sure everyone at CHS feels the same way. Although Garfield did promise you guys I'll be nice by the time he and his friends get back here, I am nice now.", Sunset mentions.

Princess Luna speaks on the intercom announcing:

"Sunset Shimmer, please report to the main foyer."

"Gotta run. I volunteered to show some new students around the school.", revealed Sunset Shimmer, explaining about her volunteering program.

"That's good. Garfield would be proud of you.", Fluttershy agreed.

"He will. Thought it'd be good for them to get to know the new me before they heard all the stuff about the old me.", saddened Sunset.

"You'll do fine.", Rarity guarantees as Sunset leaves to the school foyer.

"We've still got a few minutes before lunch starts. What do you say we do "Awesome As I Wanna Be"?", asks Rainbow Dash, eager to play their next song a few minutes before lunch.

"Um, Rainbow Dash? I was wondering if we could maybe play the song I wrote?", Fluttershy requested, holding a notebook with the lyrics in it.

"Uh, we'll get to it.", promised Rainbow Dash to Fluttershy.

"Oh. Okay.", agreed Fluttershy, as Rainbow Dash was strumming her guitar for preparation of their next song.
