CANTERLOT HIGH SCHOOL 8:45 AM

In the gymnasium, everyone was at the gym where Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna are at the altar.

"As I am sure you all know, tomorrow, Canterlot High School will be hosting our fellow students from Crystal Prep Academy as we join together in the spirit of excellence, sportsmanship, and fidelity to compete in the Friendship Games.", announced Principal Celestia.

As this is announced, most of the Canterlot High students applaud sparsely and cheer unenthusiastically, except for Sunset, her friends, Garfield and his group.

"Since the games only happen every four years, I'm sure you're all curious what goes on.", the principal then announced.

Flash Sentry then asks loudly, "You mean other than us losing?!", to the two principals. The two were not satisfied by his question.

"And that is exactly why I've asked Rainbow Dash, and returning associate Garfield, to come up and give you all a little, um...context.", the principal says as Rainbow Dash and Garfield comes up the altar.

Rainbow then grabs the microphone, saying, "Thank you, Principal Celestia.", before she and Garfield clears their throats.

"Since we came back like we said at the end of the Battle of the Bands, we all will participate by supporting the competitors in the Canterlot High team. As a matter of fact, we did come back, with some new friends too.", Garfield says.

Rainbow Dash took her turn to explain, "I know a lot of you might think there's no way we can beat a fancy school like Crystal Prep at anything."

"Unless it's a "losing to Crystal Prep" competition! 'Cause we're really good at that!", interrupts Pinkie Pie, like what Flash Sentry did a few moments ago.

Rainbow Dash and Garfield groan at this, Rainbow saying, "And I know that CHS has never won the Friendship Games even once."

"Oh, dear. I hope this speech isn't meant to be motivational.", hoped Rarity.

"I don't think so. I think it's spiritual.", Odie hopes too.

As music comes on, Rainbow continued, "Crystal Prep students are super athletic, super smart and super motivated. But there's one thing they aren't. They aren't Wondercolts!"

"And let us two sing songs of our explanation.", Garfield prepares, revealing the surprise as the curtain opens to reveal the school's marching band!

Rainbow Dash: We've fought magic more than once, And come out on top, (Band: Oh, oh!)

There's other schools, but none can make those claims, (Band: Na, na-na-na-na, oh!)

Together we are Wondercolts, Come and cheer our name, (Band: Oh, oh!) This will be our year to win these games!

Rainbow Dash and the Band: We'll always be Wondercolts forever, And now our time has finally arrived,

'Cause we believe in the Magic of Friendship, And you know at the end of the day, it is who we survive!

At the end of the first verse, DJ P0N-3, the one who helped the group in the last installment, hooks up a music system, which when it reaches the speakers, it makes a IMAX sound. The magic of friendship's electricity then spreads around and ends on the DJ's turntables.

Rainbow Dash: We're not the school we were before, (Students: Before!) Yeah, we're different now!

We overcame the obstacles we faced! (Students: Overcame the obstacles we faced!)

As this was heard, students use poster pieces to align the past two times Garfield came to CHS, including the time they faced the Demon Sunset Shimmer with DC superhero powers, as the DC logo was shown in the first poster with the demon and Twilight's crown, and including the second time they faced the Dazzlings with their jewels by using songs from various famous artists, as it shows the MJ moonwalk logo with the sirens and the jewels.

Rainbow Dash: We're Canterlot united, (Students: Unite!) We'll never bow, (Students: Oh, oh/Hey, hey!) So get ready to see us in first place!

As Rainbow throws the hat up in the air, it transits into the band leader's baton, and the leader catches it. Several band members give everyone the spiritual pony ears and tails from the first installment of the series as the song continues.

Rainbow Dash: We'll always be Wondercolts forever! (Students: Three! Two! One! Go!) And now our time has finally arrived! (Students: Our time is now!)

'Cause we believe in the Magic of Friendship, And you know, at the end of the day, it is we who survive,

At the end of the day, it is we who survive!

Students: Na, na, na-na-na-na, Wondercolts united together! Na, na, na-na-na-na, Wondercolts united forever! (continue)

Rainbow Dash: We'll always be Wondercolts forever! And now our time has finally arrived,

'Cause we believe in the Magic of Friendship...

As she sings the final two lyrics, she starts glowing blue while she gains the same pony ears, hair extensive tails, and wings due to the magic of friendship happening right now.

Rainbow Dash: And you at the end of the day, it is we who survive, at the end of the day, it is who we survive!

Singing this, the band goes back to the altar as Sunset and the rest of Garfield's friends watch Rainbow's and Garfield's upcoming, performances.

The band leader then throws the baton up again and Rainbow grabs it, revealing she's hovering in mid-air due to the gained accessories she has since the first two installments.

Now, it was Garfield's turn to sing. This time, he sings his Here Comes Garfield theme song, but with changed lyrics for CHS' Wondercolts team.

Garfield: Well, it's a tough team, a cool team, nobody's fool team, well look out, 'cause here comes Wondercolts!

They never give up, they're too good, They're athletic, well look out, 'cause here comes Wondercolts!

They're always got to be on victory, and they will beat them to first place everytime,

They won't lose anything for glory, Unless they won't give up on their winning time!

Well they're a neat team, a fun team, First-time number one team, they know what the Games are all about,

Here comes the Wondercolts! Look out, here comes the Wondercolts! Look out, I said, here comes the Wondercolts, so you better look out.

You better watch out for Wondercolts, You never know what they got up their sleeve,

So when they act in pairs, and friendly and fair, Better count what's on the score before they leave!

Well they're a neat team, a fun team, First-time number one team, they know what the Games are all about,

Here comes the Wondercolts! Look out, here comes the Wondercolts! Look out, I said, here comes the Wondercolts, so you better look out.

Here comes the Wondercolts, you better look out!

As both of Rainbow and Garfield's performances end, everyone applauds, including their friends.
