Sonic and Rainbow Dash were fighting each other in the field while the others were watching them on the bleachers. The two skilled kept managing to hit each other and dodge their attacks.

Rainbow Dash charged at Sonic with a combination of jab punches, but Sonic jumped in the air forward doing a front flip above her. He then did a spinning kick, but Rainbow managed to quickly turn it around and block it. Rainbow then did a leg sweep and caused Sonic to fall on his back. She then jumped in the air and tried to swing her fist at his stomach, but Sonic quickly rolled out of the way. He then stood up and looked at Rainbow Dash while she did the same.

"Not bad, RD, not bad at all," Sonic said.

"You're not too bad yourself," Rainbow replied, "But what do you say we make things more interesting?"

"Huh?" Sonic asked confused.

"Scootaloo! Fetch me my gym bag!" Rainbow ordered.

"You got it!" Scootaloo replied as she ran towards the locker room.

"My gym bag has all my sports equipment," Rainbow said as she looked back at Sonic with determination.

Scootaloo then came back with Rainbow's gym bag and put it down in front of her.

"Here are the ground rules, Sonic," Rainbow said, "No powers, no using your rings, your beam sword, or the Chaos Emeralds and no turning into that blue ball."

"Okay, that I can do," Sonic started, "But you can use your equipment and I can't use anything? That's not fair!"

"Well, what do you say, Sonic?" Rainbow asked, "Unless you are really a rat."

Sonic perked up at that. "All right then. Have it your way!" he said as he got in a fighting stance.

"Scoots! Hand me my baseball bat!" Rainbow called to Scootaloo.

Scootaloo dug into Rainbow's gym bag and took out a baseball bat and a couple of baseballs. She tossed them to Rainbow. Rainbow caught the bat and one of the balls in her hands. She then threw one in the air and swung her bat at the ball as it came down and the ball flew towards Sonic. Sonic punched the ball, causing it to fly straight back at Rainbow. Rainbow ducked down as the ball flew past her. She then picked up two more balls and threw them both up at the same time and managed to hit them with ease. The balls approached Sonic fast, but Sonic caught the balls in his hands and smirked.

"Really?" Sonic mocked.

Rainbow then charged at Sonic with her baseball bat and swung it at him many times. Sonic kept dodging her attacks and blocking them. Rainbow then swung the bat down at Sonic's head, but Sonic quickly moved out of the way and the bat hit the ground. Sonic then kicked the bat out of Rainbow's hands. Rainbow was defenseless.

"Is that all you got?" Sonic smirked.

Rainbow growled, "Scoots! Soccer balls!"

Scootaloo dug into Rainbow's gym bag and pulled out some soccer balls. She rolled them to Rainbow. Rainbow picked one of them with her foot and bounced it on her knee. She then let it drop and gave it a strong kick causing it to shoot straight at Sonic's face. Sonic quickly ducked his head backwards just in time. Then as he went back up, Rainbow grabbed two soccer balls and threw one of them up and kicked it and did the same for the other. This time, Sonic punched them back towards Rainbow. She ducked her head as they flew out of the field.

"Scoots! Golf Club!" Rainbow called out again.

"I'm sorry for this, Scootaloo," Sonic thought as he quickly built blue energy in his hand and blasted his Sonic wind at Scootaloo.

Scootaloo was about to grab Rainbow's Golf Club when she saw the energy wave coming towards her. "Whoa!" she said as she ducked her head.

The energy wave somehow missed Scootaloo and then disappeared into thin air. She then ran away back to the bleachers yelling, "Sorry, Rainbow! You're on your own!"

Rainbow turned to Sonic with an angry expression, "What the hay, Sonic?!"

"I had to get her to stop. I wasn't TRYING to hit her," Sonic said calmly.

Words could not describe the anger boiling in Rainbow's heart at the moment. Rainbow ran to her baseball bat, grabbed it and yelled in utter rage, "I OUGHTA PRESS YOU INTO JERK CIDER!"

She charged furiously at Sonic, swinging her baseball bat like crazy. All Sonic could do was dodge her every attack, every last strike was coming in too hot. Rainbow was completely out of control in anger.

"We have to stop them!" Twilight said, "Rainbow's out of control!"

Sonic had no choice, but to use his other type of defense… powers. He crossed his arms and formed a blue shield around him as Rainbow swung her bat at him again. She and her bat bounced off as the bat hit the shield. Rainbow fell on her back, but got back on her feet still angry, "WHY YOU-! I said 'no powers'!"

"Rainbow, please…" Sonic begged, "I had no choice. You were out of control of yourself. I don't want to fight you anymore."

"Then why did you agree to fight me earlier?!" Rainbow shouted as she got in a fighting stance with the bat still in her hands.

Sonic sighed and slowly walked up to her. Rainbow was expecting him to try and attack her, but then she was somehow calm as Sonic stopped in front of her, slowly and gently took the bat out of her hands, and put it down on the ground.

Sonic then put his hands on Rainbow's shoulders and looked her in the eyes. "Listen to me, Dash. I never wanted to make you angry from the start. The truth is… I was only trying to impress you," he told her.

Rainbow's eyes widened and her cheeks turned red. "Y-you did all of that… to impress me?" she asked.

Sonic smiled sadly as he nodded, "Yeah. Look, Dash, I'm really sorry for making you upset. I hope you can forgive me."

"No, I'm the one who should apologize. I never should've gotten mad. I was just so jealous that you became the most popular guy in the school. And now I feel like I'm no longer the best," Rainbow said as tears formed in her eyes.

Sonic wiped the tears away from Rainbow's eyes. He then did something that surprised her hundredfold. He slowly pulled her into his arms and gave her the most softest, caring hug he could give her. This action caused Rainbow to blush deep red.

"It's all right, Rainbow. I forgive you. Also, I still believe that you're the coolest girl in the school, and one of the best friends I could ever have. You're an amazing girl, Rainbow, and I want to continue to be your friend. No hard feelings, right?" Sonic said and asked.

His words were so strong and caring to Rainbow. Tears formed in her eyes again and she returned the embrace, soaking his shirt with her tears. Sonic didn't mind. "N-no hard f-feelings," Rainbow whimpered.

She felt Sonic's hand gently stroke through her rainbow hair. "Shh… it's all right. Just let it go," Sonic said softly.

Rainbow's blush increased feeling Sonic's fingers slowly running through her bright, rainbow colored hair. She smiled and nuzzled deeper into Sonic's chest, enjoying his warmth. Her heart then began throbbing faster that she had ever run in her life before. She also began to feel something that her friends hadn't felt when they first met Sonic. She felt butterflies in her stomach. "It's this feeling again," Rainbow thought as she continued to keep her embrace with Sonic, "Is this really true? Do I… have a crush… on Sonic?"

"She really is an amazing girl. But I have no idea why I feel so happy for her. I guess I'll find out later," Sonic thought as he as well continued the hug with Rainbow.

They knew that the others were watching each other, but they didn't mind. The girls were all feeling happy. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle 'awwed' at the sight, except for Scootaloo, who was a little disgusted by the romance and said in her head, "Eww!"

"Well, I'll be. Never thought she would be huggin' him. Do y'all know what this means?" Applejack asked amazed.

"I believe we do," Twilight said, "I think Rainbow has feelings for Sonic."

"Aw… they look so cute together," Rarity cooed.

"And here I thought miss, 'I'm too cool for romance' wouldn't have feelings for someone," Sweetie Belle whispered to Apple Bloom.

Fluttershy felt a bit upset for a moment, but then she got over it and felt happy for the two.

Sonic and Rainbow slowly parted from the hug. They looked really deeply into each other's eyes. Sonic's arms were wrapped around Rainbow's waist while Rainbow's hands were on Sonic's chest. They really seemed to like each other. The connection between the two of them was growing stronger and stronger as they continued to look at each other in their eyes.

Rainbow kept staring into Sonic's bright possessing green emerald eyes. They shined really brightly in the light like a real pure clean and green glowing emerald with bright white sparkles in them. Sonic kept staring into Rainbow's bright pink magenta, violet eyes. They, as well, shined really brightly in the light with sparkles, but like a pure clean and bright pink crystal.

The others were now convinced that Sonic and Rainbow were falling in love. "Oh, my," Rarity said, "Look at them. I've never seen anything this romantic before."

"This is so… amazing," Applejack said, "Wait, look."

The other looked and saw Sonic and Rainbow slowly closing their eyes and leaning their heads towards each other with their lips puckered. They were coming together for a kiss.

The girls were all surprised, but Rarity felt really happy about this, "She's gonna do it. She's gonna kiss him."

And Rarity was right. Sonic and Rainbow's lips had made contact with each other. Their kiss had felt so strong and passionate for each other. Sonic and Rainbow's embrace tightened as they depended the kiss.

Now all the other girls cooed at this beautiful romantic moment, well, except for Scootaloo. She wasn't a fan of this kind of stuff.

As Sonic and Rainbow continued in their strong embrace and kiss, they were both thinking about what they were feeling about each other.

"This feeling…" Rainbow thought, "It's so strong… and full of compassion… and even… love. I can't believe it. I'm actually in love with Sonic."

"The embrace and this kiss…" Sonic thought, "It's really passionate and strong. I don't believe this. Am I really in love… with Rainbow?"

But the beautiful romance was interrupted when someone called out, "Sonic!"

Sonic and Rainbow broke the kiss and looked to see who was calling. It was Principle Celestia with a little bit of a sad look. "Come with me," she said.

Sonic turned to Rainbow, "I gotta go, Rainbow."

"O-okay, but thank you, Sonic," Rainbow said smiling.

Sonic nodded as he walked with Principle Celestia into the school. Nobody was noticing a small, round robot was hovering high in the air with a camera taping them. On the other side, Eggman was watching.

"Ah, so it seems that blue haired teen is the one who destroyed my Egg Fighters," Eggman said to himself, "Could he be Sonic? Hmm…"

Meanwhile, Sonic followed Celestia to her office. They went into her office and sat down in chairs. "So, what did you want to see me about?" Sonic asked.

"I want to know more about you, Sonic," Celestia answered.

Sonic sighed, "Let me guess, you saw that video as well?"

"Yes," Celestia answered, "But I also saw this."

She then handed Sonic a newspaper. Sonic took it and looked at what it said. It showed and image of him fighting the Egg Fighter he fought inside the school. Above it said, "Armed Robot defeated by Sonic, the new student of Canterlot High!"

"It's happening all over the news," Celestia said, "The whole city knows about you. So can you please tell me the truth?"

Sonic took a very deep breath and started to tell her every single thing about him. He told her everything he said to the girls about himself, his world, the Chaos Emeralds, his adventures, his enemies, and how he got here. After he finished, Celestia was amazed.

"My goodness, that is amazing. Who would have thought you were really a hedgehog from another world with powers? You having super speed, super strength and your guitar… amazing," Celestia said, "Now, tell me, why did you lie to me when you came into my school?"

"I had to lay low and not get any unwanted attention," Sonic explained, "I just thought that the best I could do was lie so I wouldn't put anyone, especially your students in danger."

"I understand," Celestia said, "Now, before I let you go, just remember, only use your powers if it is really necessary, okay?"

"I'll try my best," Sonic said.

"Okay, you are dismissed, and good luck," Celestia said.

"Wait," Sonic said, "Just one thing."

"Yes?" Celestia asked.

"Did you see me and Rainbow together?" Sonic asked.

"Indeed, I have," Celestia answered.

"This… feeling that I felt when I looked into her eyes" Sonic began, "Does this mean that I'm falling in love with her?"

"Yes, you are," Celestia said with a smile, "It is not anything that you need to be afraid about. Everyone can find someone to love. And it is good. If you truly love Rainbow Dash, she herself can have someone to love. You might be the very person who can work for her."

Sonic nodded and left Celestia's office. As he closed the door, he then looked at his TSP watch. It was still out of power, but Sonic had an idea. He took out his power ring and placed it on his watch. It then glowed brightly and the power ring transferred some of its energy into the watch. Now it was recharged, thanks to the energy of the power ring.

He then put his power ring away and turned his watch on.

Mobius, Tails' house

Tails was thinking of a way to find Sonic and get him back home. He struggled with finding a plan. Then his watch vibrated. He didn't want to answer, but did it anyway. "Hello?"

"Tails, it's me, Sonic. Can you hear me?" Sonic's voice said on the watch.

"Sonic? You're alive?!" Tails exclaimed.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Sonic said.

"Thank chaos," Tails said, "Now where are you?"

"I'm in another kind of world and I somehow turned into a human," Sonic explained, "I'm inside this school called Canterlot High, but I also have the Chaos Emeralds, my medallion, beam sword, and some of the power and gold rings I collected."

"You turned into a human?" Tails asked, "Strange, but when did you end up there? And how are you making contact?"

"The same day I got sucked into that portal, I would say," Sonic answered, "And I don't know how."

"Okay," Tails said, "I'll have to try to get Knuckles to see if he can locate you and the emeralds with the Master Emerald."

Back to Canterlot High

"Yeah," Sonic said, "But there's something else going on. I've been seeing Egg Fighters in the school."

"Wait, seriously?" Tails asked, "Then does that mean…?"

"Yeah… Eggman's here," Sonic said, "And I think he's watching."

"Okay, I'll get to Knuckles," Tails said.

Then Sonic turned his watch off. He then went to find his friends. As he walked, some of the students were talking about him again.

"Hey, guys, look! There's Sonic again!" A male student said.

"Yeah, he's more amazing then I had thought!" another said.

"I don't know about you guys, but I think he is really cute!" a girl said.

This time, Sonic was feeling uncomfortable and nervous. Then the crusaders came to Sonic.

"Hey, girls, what's up?" Sonic asked.

"We're just here to let you know that our sisters and their friends went to Sugarcube Corner," Apple Bloom.

"All right, thanks," Sonic said, "Hey, do you think you know where I can find this Sugarcube Corner?"

"If you want, I can take you there," said a male voice behind Sonic.

Sonic turned around and was face-to-face with a guy. He had blue hair, blue eyes, and tan skin. He was wearing a black jacket with a red and white streak around the center of the arms over a white shirt with the symbol of a blue shield with a yellow lightning bolt on the chest, blue jeans, and black and white shoes.

"Sonic, this is Flash Sentry," Scootaloo introduced.

"Hi," Sonic said as he held out his hand for a handshake.

Flash accepted the handshake. "Hey, nice to meet you- YOW!" Flash yelped because Sonic's grip from the handshake had felt strong, "Wow, that is a good grip you have. Should not pick a fight with anybody like you."

"Oh, sorry," Sonic said.

"So, you're going to go to Sugarcube Corner?" Flash asked.

"Yeah, except for the fact, I'm new in town, and I've never been in the city before," Sonic answered.

"No problem, we all know you're from another world. I'll take you there," Flash said.

"All right," Sonic said, "Let's go."

"All right," Flash said.

"Thanks again, girls," Sonic said.

"No problem," Sweetie Belle said.

Later, when Sonic and Flash arrived at Sugarcube Corner, they saw Sonic's friends, some sitting on a couch and some sitting separate chairs. Applejack was sitting in a chair backwards, Fluttershy was in another one, Pinkie was in a third with a drink with a straw and a fruit wedge, and Rarity and Rainbow Dash were on a couch in front of a window. Spike, of course was sitting on Rarity's lap while she had her hands upon his back.

"Hey, Sonic," Rainbow said as she then noticed Flash was with him, "Oh hey, Flash."

"Hey, girls," Sonic and Flash said.

"How come Flash is with you?" Applejack asked.

"He was on his way here, but I told him I didn't know how to get here, so I walked with him," Sonic answered.

Sonic then took a seat on the left arm of the couch beside Rainbow. Rainbow saw him and blushed a little bit but smiled. Flash then went to get a drink for himself but bumped into someone. When he saw who it was, he was a bit surprised. It was Twilight with a terrified expression on her face as she accidently dropped a drink of hers.

"We really need to stop bumping into each other like this," Flash said.

Twilight knelt down to pick up the cup she had dropped. But when she put her hand on it, Flash did the same and their hands touched each other. They then looked at each other until Twilight quickly pulled her hand away while smiling nervously. When Flash picked the cup up for her, he smiled nervously too.

They both stood up and Twilight spoke while grabbing her hair. "You know me, always trying to make a big SPLASH around here. 'Cause my drink kind of splashed on the ground," she laughed, smiled, and played with her fingers nervously as Flash stared at her.

Twilight then had the courage to speak again. "I'm gonna go over there now," she concluded while pointing her thumb towards her friends.

She sat on the right arm beside Rarity. Twilight then just blushed and played with her hair when Rarity spoke up, "Don't even think about it. You're already trying to get her crown, who knows what Sunset Shimmer would do if you ended up getting her ex-boyfriend too."

Sonic perked up again, not by Sunset's name, but by Rarity mentioning that Flash was Sunset's ex-boyfriend.

"I'm not trying to- I don't even know- we just accidently- Ex-boyfriend?" Twilight stammered.

"Flash Sentry broke up with her a few weeks ago," Fluttershy said as she and the others then looked at Flash as he paid for his own drink, "I can't believe she hasn't done anything awful to him yet."

"Wait a second," Sonic spoke up to the group getting their attention, "Flash used to date Sunset?"

"Yeah," Applejack said, "Let's just say things weren't going way too well between them."

Flash then walked past the group and looked at Twilight as she tried to hide from him with a kind of grin on her face. As he approached the door, he said to Sonic, "Well, see ya, Sonic."

"Maybe she's just waiting until she has the power to do something really awful," Twilight said.

"All right, everyone," Applejack began as she stood up, "Dance is tomorrow night, and we still don't know how we're gonna get Twilight the votes she needs to be named princess. Right now, folks only know the Twilight from the video Sunset Shimmer posted online," she came up behind Twilight, "We need to help 'em see her differently."

"Hmm…" the group pondered on what to do.

"I GOT IT!" Rarity screeched throughout the entire building, earning herself stares from everyone in the room.

She flashed a big toothy smile, darted her eyes around, and her cheeks blushed bright pink in embarrassment. So, choosing a much calmer tone, she cleared her throat, "I mean, um, perhaps I have a solution," she said as she walked to her bag.

She then reached in her bag, "Now this may be an absolutely preposterous idea, BUT what if tomorrow we all wore THESE as a sign of unity?" she asked as she pulled out a pair a yellow horse ears on a blue headband and a blue and yellow tail attached to a rope.

The group stared at Rarity quizzically.

"Freshman year, they were very, very popular, a way for everybody to show their school spirit," Rarity said as she put the headband on her head and wrapped the yellow and blue tail around her waist, "You know, 'go, Canterlot Wondercolts'!"

She smiled in slight embarrassment before clearing her throat and deadpanned, "I haven't sold any in ages," she said as she began to dig in her bag for more headbands and tails for everyone.

"I mean, the six of us are obviously very different, but deep down, we're all Canterlot Wondercolts," Rarity added, "Even you, Sonic."

The group then put on their headbands and tails, even Sonic. Then Rarity declared, "Sunset Shimmer is the one who divided us, Twilight Sparkle and Sonic the Hedgehog are the ones who united us, and we're going to let everyone know it!"

She then put another headband on Twilight's head and asked the others while looking at them, "What do you think?"

Pinkie smiled brightly, Applejack smiled with a thumbs up, Rainbow crossed her arms and grinned, Fluttershy put both her hands behind her back and smiled brightly, Spike looked at Twilight and Rarity with hearts in his eyes, mostly likely at Rarity we must add, and Sonic smiled super brightly with a double thumbs up and winked, "Way past cool, Rarity."

Rarity blushed a tiny bit at his words but smiled and nuzzled Twilight while Twilight had her right eye closed and smiled back. Rarity then looked at Rainbow. Rainbow saw her looking at her. Then Rarity motioned her eyes at Sonic, telling Rainbow to ask him out. Rainbow felt nervous and gulped as she walked up towards Sonic.

Sonic chuckled at the friendship. Then he heard a voice behind him, "Sonic?"

Sonic turned his head around and saw Rainbow blushing, "There's something I want to ask you," she said.

"Yeah?" Sonic asked.

"I was wondering, if you're not busy tomorrow… would you like… to go… to the dance… with me?" Rainbow asked blushing deeply.

The group took notice of this and had awestruck looks. Sonic thought for a moment at her question, and then he smiled taking Rainbow's hand, "Of course, Dashie," he answered.

Rainbow's eyes widened and her cheeks turned redder, "R-really?"

Sonic smiled more. "Yes, Dashie."

Rainbow had tears of joy and happiness as she pulled Sonic into a strong hug. Sonic was a little surprised, but smiled and hugged her back. Then when Rainbow let him go, she whispered, "Sonic, this is for everything you've done for me today."

Sonic knew what Rainbow was going to do, but smiled. Rainbow slowly closed her eyes, leaned forward and kissed Sonic on his lips and Sonic returned the kiss.

Rainbow's friends were all now happy for her. Rarity was in tears of joy as she smiled that it worked. "I knew she could do it. And I'm so happy that they're together now," she said to the others.

"Yeah, those two were meant for one another," Applejack said.

"Twilight," Spike whispered to Twilight so the others wouldn't hear him, "How would you feel if Sonic met OUR Rainbow Dash in Equestria?"

"I think I would feel just as happy as I do now," Twilight answered as she watched Sonic and Rainbow continue in their embrace and kiss.

Sonic and Rainbow broke their kiss after a moment while blushing madly and smiling and Sonic said, "I love you, Rainbow Dash. And even if I had to leave here and return home, I promise I will always come back and find you, my little Dashie."

Rainbow smiled. "I love you too, Sonic."

Sonic and Rainbow pulled each other into another strong and caring hug. The others cooed at the romance. They had all never seen this much happiness in front of them.
