"Welcome Equestria" said Vinyl "to another sure to be exciting episode of Big Brother, last time we saw our HOH Rainbow Dash make a tough decision by placing her good friend Applejack, and her sister Applebloom up for eviction, surely a move as bold and daring as this cannot go without opposition, what will Applejack have to say about being targeted by her dear friend, will Applebloom make it to the eviction ceremony emotionally intact, and what new plans do the Wonderbolts have for the game ahead, find out the answers to these questions and more on this electrifying episode of Big Brother"

The camera switches to the HOH room where Rainbow Dash is sleeping on the large blue bed While Spitfire and Fleetfoot talk strategy and in the Corner Soarin was taking a nap.

"So you see" said Spitfire "with Applejack gone we become an almost unstoppable force in this game"

"I see where you're coming from" replied Fleetfoot "but as we are there just aren't enough of us to be the all powerful force you desire"

"And just what do you suppose we do?" asked Spitfire "to increase our odds"

The white maned Pegasus pondered the question a moment before responding "If we had but one more ally we would pose a much more severe threat"

"Ah" said Spitfire clearly thinking through the pros and cons of such an action "We would certainly have the force, but"

"But what" snapped Fleetfoot clearly not happy that her plan had any kind of drawback "what could possibly be the disadvantage of having greater numbers"

"Oh Fleetfoot" said Spitfire calmly "you always think of blunt force, In this kind of environment having to many allies compromises the stealth factor of a lower number but I do agree we could use another ally, but who

At that moment Scootaloo walked in through the door pausing as Fleetfoot and Spitfire's gazes drifted over the young orange Pegasus.

"One of the other fillies" whispered Fleetfoot "they'd be very easy to turn to our cause"

"Hey kid" Spitfire called to Scootaloo "come over here"

"Yes Spitfire" Scootaloo answered as she took a seat next to the two Wonderbolts

"Kid, uh Scootaloo" said Spitfire "do you have any friends who might join in our alliance, how about Sweetie Belle?"

"You can forget that" said Scootaloo "Sweetie Belle has her undivided loyalty to her sister Rarity"

"After that nomination ceremony Applebloom is definitely out" sighed Fleetfoot "how about Babs"

"Babs might work" said Scootaloo "she doesn't have any sisterly connections despite being Applejack, and Appleblooms kin, she'll want to join once she knows what we have to offer"

"Good now lets get out of here before it looks suspicious" said Spitfire

They wake up Soarin and casually walk out of the HOH room

The camera switches over to Applebloom who is still upset by the news of her being on the chopping block while Rarity, Applejack, and Lyra try to calm her down

"I just want to go home" wailed Applebloom "I miss Granny Smith, and Big Macintosh, and I miss the farm and I just don't want to be here any more, I thought it would be fun but it's not"

"Come on Rarity" said Lyra "we should let Applejack handle this, they're sisters"

The camera switches to the kitchen where Lyra and Rarity met up with Twilight and Fluttershy

"That poor little filly" said Twilight "Only a few days in and she's already homesick"

"I know" said Rarity "I just feel awful for her"

"You know what we could do" said Lyra

"What?" asked Fluttershy

"We could all vote her out of the competition" stated Lyra "if she's really that homesick it just might be the kindest thing we can do for her"

"I guess you're right" said Twilight "I just hope she feels better once she's home again"

The camera once again switches to the HOH room where Rainbow Dash was still sleeping on the bed when suddenly Applejack barged through the door

"Rainbow wake up!" barked Applejack "You have some explaining to do and I'm not leaving until you give me some answers"

"What" asked Rainbow Dash still groggy from having just woken up to an angry Applejack

"You know what you two-timing little varmint" Applejack retorted "why did you target me like that we're friends"

"I don't know" said Rainbow Dash in an annoyed tone "maybe because you're my biggest threat and it only makes sense to get rid of you first"

"Oh don't feed any of that nonsense" said Applejack "you no good and well that you're lying, now I'll ask again why am I up on the block"

"I don't have to answer you" shouted Rainbow Dash

"Fine don't tell me" said Applejack heading for the door "but mark my words I ain't done in this game yet, you better sleep with one eye open because I'm coming for you Dash"

Vinyl's voice comes in over the speakers "all right houseguests meet together in the living room so we can find out who'll be playing in the veto competition"

All the contestants gathered in the living room the two up for eviction houseguests sat in two red chairs at the back of the room while the others arranged themselves on the two sofas on either side of the room while Rainbow Dash stood in front of the central table on which a bag was located.

"All right houseguests its time for the veto competition to begin" said Vinyl over the speaker system "here's how it works, the HOH and the two up for eviction houseguests will compete, the bag on the table contains the names of all the houseguests other than those three, Rainbow Dash please draw two names from the bag"

Rainbow Dash reached into the bag and pulled out two name cards

"Lyra, and Rarity" said Rainbow Dash

"There you have it" said Vinyl "they are the five contestants who'll be competing in the veto competition, now I want the five of you in the arena room now, the rest of you'll stay in here"

The five contestants all walked to the arena room where upon opening the door they found two areas of land with a large lake of mud spanning the center of the room on the side closest to them were school desks and on the other side of the mud lake were a large amount of wooden blocks

"Welcome to the first veto challenge of the season" said Vinyl "I like to call it Word Search, your goal is simple cross the muddy lake and retrieve 7 wooden blocks once you have them bring them back over to this side of the lake and make a word out of only the seven blocks you have whoever has the largest word after all the contestants have completed their words is the winner of the power of veto"

All five contestants lined up each beside their desk waiting for the signal to start.

"Alright" said Vinyl "on your marks, get set, GO!"

Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Lyra, and Applebloom all took off across the lake of mud while Rarity took a few steps back and charged ahead leaping clear over the lake of mud stunning the other contestants.

"What" said Rarity "I came to win just like everybody else"

She quickly gathered up seven blocks and took another great leap across the lake back to the other side she quickly arranged the biggest word she could make and covered it with the cloth to signal she was done.

Lyra and Applebloom were next to make their ways back across the lake both taking their time before signaling their completion.

Applejack was half way through the lake while Rainbow Dash had already started on her word but Rainbow was working with a horrified expression on her face giving Applejack a boost of confidence, By the time she had reached her desk all the other contestants had finished their words so she quickly arranged the biggest word her letters would allow and hoped for the best.

"All right" said Vinyl over the speaker system "Time to see the words, Applejack your word please"

Applejack lifted the cloth off of her blocks to reveal her word

"I have spelled Apples" stated Applejack

"Ok" said Vinyl "Applejack has set a hard word to follow with six letters, Applebloom?"

"I've spelled the word Rock"

"All right Applejacks still in the lead with six letters, next Lyra"

"I spelled the word Loner" said Lyra while lifting her cloth

"And Applejack is still in the lead with 6 letters' next up is Rarity"

"Here you go darling I have spelled the word Fashion" said Rarity

"Wow said Vinyl a perfect seven letters you're now in the lead, ok Dash time for your word you have to have spelled a seven letter word to tie Rarity"

"I spelled" Rainbow Dash sighed "I spelled Lion"

"Congratulations Rarity you have won the first veto competition of the season" said Vinyl over the speakers

The camera switches to the stage were Vinyl is sitting in front of around a hundred other ponies.

"Well there you have it folks, Rarity the first veto winner of the season, but now the big question what will she do with this power now that she has it, will Babs join the alliance formed by the Wonderbolts, and how will the outcome of the next elimination ceremony change the houses dynamics for the rest of the season find out this and more Tomorrow night on the first eviction episode of Big Brother good night every pony"

The show ends with Lyra, Twilight, Rarity and Fluttershy talking while the Wonderbolts, Scootaloo, and Rainbow Dash head upstairs towards the HOH room.
