Chapter 106: Equestria Girls Part 5 (Twilight's POV)

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

"...Maybe it was different at your old school," explained Fluttershy as we walked through the school's cafeteria, "but at C.H.S, everybody sticks to their own kind. One thing that they do have in common is that they all know that Sunset Shimmer is going to rule the school until we graduate." Before I replied, I spotted Cloud sitting at a table with one of the creatures. It's skin was a light grey and its short mane was a dull blue. It was wearing some kind of jacket that matched the colour of its mane and it had more clothing on its legs, coloured a more vivid blue.

"Cloud!" I called as I walked over to him. He looked in my direction and quickly spotted me as I sat down.

"Hey, Twilight," he replied.

"What happened to you earlier?" I heard Fluttershy sit down next to me.

"I'm gonna bake pancakes." What does that even-? Ugh... I sighed.

"Yeah, okay." I should tell him about my plan... I leaned close to him as he bit into an odd looking hayburger. "Don't tell anypony else about us not being from this place."

"M'kay." I returned to my previous sitting position and cleared my throat.

"I've decided to run for Princes of the Fall Formal."

"Why?"

"I think somepo-body needs to put a stop to Sunset Shimmer's evil ways." He rolled his eyes.

"Then I'll do some research on... Stuff, as well as look for that thing you misplaced."

"Research? On what?"

"This city is pretty different to where we moved here from, I want to find out about some differences and see if anyone back home is interested." My eyes widened.

"Good thinking!" A thought suddenly came to me. Wait, wouldn't it be better for me to deal with the social problems and him to fight the evil Unicorn? I shook my head to clear my thoughts. I'm thinking too far into it, we'll be fine. Cloud suddenly threw his arm around my shoulders.

"Can't you see the resemblance?" He asked Fluttershy.

"No...?" She replied, sounding as unsure as I was about the situation.

"Sucks for you." Nobody had a reply to that, so we ate in silence.

"Hey, you're that new student that beat up Gilda, right?" Asked a female voice. I looked up to see a female 'Primotaur' (as Cloud put it) looking at Cloud.

"Yeah?" He asked back. Why was he asking that?

"I'm Slash Fentry."

"That's... Nice? What do you want?" He took a drink of water.

"We should bang!" "W-What?! I-Is that-?! W-What?!

"What?!" Everyone exclaimed simultaneously.

"Oh, you don't like people being too direct? That's fine, I'll just change my personality for no discernible reason until you want me. I'll be back later then!" She left, leading to an awkward silence. ... I turned to Fluttershy.

"So, uh... Who should I go see about the Fall Formal?" I asked.


I pulled open the door to the gymnasium and stepped inside, Spike following. Fluttershy said that the head of the party committee should be in here...

"INCOMING!" Screamed a familiar voice. Hundreds of streamers rained from above, covering Spike and I in paper. Standing up, I spotted a pink girl blowing up a balloon. I walked over to her.

"Hi," I greeted, "my name's Twilight Sparkle and-" She turned around to face me. "Pinkie Pie?" She stopped blowing up the balloon and gasped. Suddenly, I was grabbed from behind by something. I spun around to see... Her. Yeah, it's Pinkie.

"Are you psychic?!"

"Uh, no, I don't think so. Unless of course that's something you can do here?" She sighed and backed off.

"Not usually." She went back to blowing up balloons. Knowing Pinkie, she's probably who Fluttershy meant...

"Fluttershy said this is where I'd find the head of the Fall Formal planning committee." Pinkie tied up the balloon in her hands and frowned. Wow, that's a rare sight...

"Fluttershy, huh? Don't let the whole 'shy' thing fool you, she can be a real meanie!" Wait, what?

"You two aren't friends? But she didn't seem to have any problem with you when she told me to come h-"

"Waited a bit to get your name on the ballot, huh? Dance is day after tomorrow." I guess she doesn't want to talk about it.

"I'm brand new here." Pinkie frowned curiously.

"I thought you didn't look familiar." She started pulling at my limbs and looking at me closely. "Though, now that I'm really looking at you... Do you have a twin sister who lives in the city, has a pet dog named Spike that looks just like that one?" She pointed to Spike who was playing with a balloon.

"Uh... Not that I know of..." I chuckled nervously.

"Huh, weird. Anyhoo," she reached into her mane and pulled out a clipboard, "just need to fill this out and you are officially up for the coveted Princess of the Fall Formal crown." She reached back in and pulled out a pen. She stared at me expectantly with a smile on her face. It was right at that moment when I realised I didn't know how to write as a Primotaur. I really need to find out what these things are called so I can stop using that stupid name...

I slowly leaned forward and grabbed the pen in my mouth. Pinkie's expression didn't change. No, no, no... It's more likely they use their hands... I grabbed the pen with my hand and did my best to write my name. Pinkie turned the board around to read it and immediately looked shocked.

"Wow!" She exclaimed. "You have really bad handwriting! It's like you've never held a pen before!" I laughed nervously and instinctively tucked the pen behind my ear. It worked surprising well considering the body I was in.

"Hibbldee hoobldee yaka doodle carrot me fun-time banana stereotype?" Asked another familiar voice. I looked over to where it was coming from to see Applejack and what resembled her brother carrying plastic cases of cider. Pinkie squealed and ran over to her. Applejack turned to her brother. "Jib jab ookashacka?"

"Eeyup," he replied. Applejack turned to me next.

"Foodle doodle, box me up..."

"You do?" I asked.

"Yeeeee. Yuh foot milkshake scissors butt star dingle fuh WOAH eight Tuesday." She grabbed a bottle of the cider, ripped the cap off with her teeth, spat it away and drank from it, not even giving a buck about how strong her teeth were.

"Twilight Sparkle here is gonna run against Sunset Shimmer for Princess of the Fall Formal!" Exclaimed Pinkie. Applejack spat the cider onto the floor, turning the carpet of streamers into a disgusting mess. Well, more so at least.

"I said a hip, hop, hippie, hippie to the hip, hip, hop it, you don't stop, a rock it, to the bang bang boogie, say, up jump the boogie, to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat," she explained before grabbing some balloons and drawing faces on them. "Now, what you hear is not a test, I'm rappin' to the beat. And me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet." She stabbed one of the balloons with a needle. "See, I am Wonder Mike, and I'd like to say hello, to the black, to the white, the red and the brown, the purple and yellow. But first, I gotta bang bang, the boogie to the boogie, say up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie, let's rock, you don't stop, rock the rhythm that'll make your body rock." What?

"Rainbow Dash?" I asked.

"She's the captain of, like, every team at Canterlot High!" Explained Pinkie, bouncing on a balloon.

"Let the rainbow remind you!" Added Applejack. "That together we will always shine!" I'm wasting too much time here, I need to get going.

"Thanks for the advice, Applejack," I thanked, "but this is something I really need to do."

"Corgis are like apple juice?"

"Uh..." I chuckled nervously yet again. "Didn't you say?"

"Nope," said her brother.

"Well, it sure was nice meeting you both," I said quickly, "I'm sure I'll be seeing you around!" I ran out of the gym, Spike following me closely. Jeez, that was close...

Author's Notes:

SO MANY BALLOONS.


So this wasn't supposed to be a Twilight chapter. It was supposed to be about the baking contest, but then I realise that I forgot to make Cloud describe Nerdy and I didn't really have a good reason for him to suddenly do it a while later (also one of the reasons this took so long). I had an idea to turn it into a joke about him being partially invisible, but I changed my mind and did this instead. It also made this pretty much just a repeat of last chapter and then near identical to how the show originally went.
Sorry about that.


How the hell did Accentjack even escalate o this level? :rainbowlaugh: :ajbemused:
