After seeing someone sneaking around and being close to the portal, Sunset decided to gather everyone in the library and even asked Nevan to attend their little meeting to rely on what she saw.

"She was definitely doing something to the statue – or was going to." Sunset said.

"Do you think she came through the portal from Equestria?" Fluttershy wondered.

"I don't think that would be the case, otherwise Sunset would have been the first to notice the portal glowing before someone comes through." Nevan said, remembering what Sunset told her about the portal.

"She's right, I think she was from over here." Sunset theorized.

"So, no magical being from Equestria nor some demons… And I was actually hoping for something exciting." Aria exclaimed.

"Well, I say that's a relief. The last thing we need is another magical so-and-so bent on world domination comin' over from Equestria." Applejack said.

"Or demons coming to kill us, but I believe Flash darling can handle that." Rarity believed Flash will be able to handle them.

"Thanks, but that still leaves the question of who was that person at the portal who seem so interested in the statue." Flash tried to think of who that person is, but nothing came to mind.

"Maybe it was Arkham? That guy tried to use Equestria magic for his own plans like making us into his monster minions." Sonata guessed.

"Please, I've been trying to forget about that." Aria groaned from the memories of that night.

"But I don't think he would try doing anything to you guys just yet, like a good magician there is a time and place to show one's greatness." Trixie stated.

"You certainly know plenty of that, do you?" Sunset teased making Trixie blush a little.

"Okay, so we can rule out Arkham for being at the statue." Flash said. Secretly relieved that is wasn't him otherwise he would have lost his temper and just attack the guy right then and there.

"Well, you don't have to keep guessing anymore. Because I've totally figured out who it was!" Rainbow Dash proclaimed as she comes in with a book in her hand.

"Ooh, ooh! A nighttime statue cleaner? A magical portal maintenance maintainer? A gardener?!" Pinkie guessed silly.

"Maybe it's one of my co-workers at the taco restaurant I work at to bring me some delicious tacos." Sonata guessed with a tiny drool coming from her mouth.

"Did you have some tacos during the night, young lady?" Nevan asked.

"Maybe." Sonata shrugged with a slight chuckle.

"Why don't we let Rainbow Dash tell us who the person might be." Applejack advised.

"Thank you." Rainbow Dash thanked the cowgirl.

"Seeing as how they got off a bus from the city and got back on a bus headed to the city, I'll bet they go to..." Rainbow Dash paused for a second as everyone but Sunset, Nevan, and the Dazzlings said the same thing.

"Crystal Prep."

"I should have known it's those neat-freaks." Flash angered a little.

"Yep. With the Friendship Games starting tomorrow, they'd totally try to prank us by defacing the Wondercolts statue." Rainbow Dash explained.

"Why would anyone take a bus all the way from the city for that?" Sunset asked.

"And why do you all sound like this Crystal Prep place is a big deal." Adagio added another question.

"Because it is a big deal when it comes to this time of the year." Trixie crossed her arms.

"Because Crystal Prep Shadowbolts are our biggest rivals?" Applejack mentioned.

"Because that's just what the students at Crystal Prep would do?" Rarity added while doing her nails a little.

"Because even though they beat us in everything – soccer, tennis, golf – they still have to gloat!" Rainbow Dash showed the pictures of the Shadowbolts winning those sports and how they mocked the Wondercolt statue.

"Well, that's not very nice." Sonata commented.

"I doubt nice is even in their dictionary." Flash rolled his eyes.

"Seems kinda silly to me." Sunset said making most gasp.

"So, I guess you think the Friendship Games are silly, too." Rainbow Dash glared.

"Easy there, Rainbow Dash. I'm sure Sunset is more into fighting magical beings and demons, she knows how big of a deal the games are to us." Flash assured.

"Do I, really." Sunset nodded.

"Although it's ironic that the two schools are at odds with each other despite the events is supposed to be about coming together and get along, given the namesake and all." Nevan stated.

"Well, it's kinda hard to get along with someone who beats you at everything." Applejack said.

"Not anymore! This time, things are gonna be different." Rainbow Dash believed strongly with a smirk.

"What do you mean?" Sunset asked.

"Does it involve unleashing my Devilish awesomeness right into Crystal Prep's face?" Flash asked exciting as his red eye glow for a second.

"Well, maybe, i-if you want to that is." Rainbow Dash giggled as she blushes from seeing how cool Flash is being right now, but she quickly got back her focus.

"But there is another thing I'm going with, and you guys are going to see soon." Rainbow Dash smirked.

(Gymnasium)

All the students have been gathered at the gymnasium at told by the teachers for the announcement Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna are going are to tell them, the students may already know that that is and don't look all that thrill of hearing it.

"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." Celestia said smiling brightly.

The students just sigh while clapping their hands sarcastically thinking to themselves why bother with these games if they're gonna lose again.

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

"You mean besides us always losing?" Micro Chip asked.

"(I was worried this might happen. None of them are feeling the spirit of the Friendship Games, good thing I have something special just for this occasion.)" Celestia thought said, hoping this will work.

"And that is exactly why I've asked Rainbow Dash to come up and give you all a little, um... context." Celestia gestured to Rainbow Dash who just walked up the stage and handed her the microphone.

"Thank you, Principal Celestia." Rainbow Dash said before looking at her peers.

"I know a lot of you might think there's no way we can beat a fancy school like Crystal Prep at anything." Rainbow Dash pointed out the obvious.

"Unless it's a "losing to Crystal Prep" competition! 'Cause we're really good at that!" Pinkie called out, that causes Rainbow Dash to groan.

"And I know that CHS has never won the Friendship Games even once." Rainbow Dash mentioned.

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

"Just get on with the point already!" Aria yelled as she is feeling impatient of this stupid gathering to be over.

Meanwhile, Flash is waiting backstage behind the curtains with his demonic guitar Nevan and the school's marching band getting themselves ready for Rainbow Dash's cue to start the music.

"It looks like this rally is going to be awesome." Flash whispered to himself.

"Crystal Prep students are super athletic, super smart, and super motivated. But there's one thing they aren't. They aren't Wondercolts!" Rainbow Dash said strongly.

"Okay, now." Flash said to the marching band, and they start playing for the music.

(Music: CHS Rally Song, Equestria Girls Friendship Games OST)

The curtain slowly starts to open showing the marching band playing and Flash made one powerful struck on his guitar.

Flash smirks at Rainbow Dash who responds with a fist in the air before they jump off the stage and marching through the students with the marching band behind them, Flash kick the music off with his guitar for a moment and points at Vinyl. The DJ girl suddenly felt a jolt of hot beats and plugged in her record playing into the speakers to get this rally song more pump up.

Next is Rainbow Dash with a blue marching band hat and the band itself are holding some square cards in front of them.

The band flip the square cards showing Sunset when she was a She-Demon and the Dazzlings when they were forced into becoming demons. Neither Sunset nor the Dazzlings minded for it'll be a reminder of their past and a motivation to help them move forward along with being ready for the Friendship Games.

Some of the marching band members started tossing some of the Wondercolt horse ears and tail to the students they put them on, feeling the exciting spirit to go for the game.

Rainbow Dash tossed the hat into the and Flash shot a lightning bolt at the ceiling making a mini-indoor firework while everyone is getting pump from the song, believing they can beat Crystal Prep this year.

Everyone started clapping their hands and stomping their feet together, even Celestia and Luna are getting into the spirit of this moment knowing that Rainbow Dash has done her job of getting the students feel extra excited for the games.

Rainbow Dash is marching back to the stage with Flash right behind her and helps lift her up to the stage, she blushes from the help though didn't mind, and turns back to her friends.

Then the unexpected happen, Rainbow Dash's pony form suddenly came out upon the finale of the song though no one pay mind as they want to feel more pump up than ever, she flies into the air and caught the baton the marching band leader tossed.

Flash looks up seeing how Rainbow Dash is being her awesome self as always which he believes is her own sexy charm, he felt so exciting that he jumps strong to be on the height and unaware that did a demonic move.

(Music End)

Everyone cheers from the music now having full confident in themselves in the Friendship Games along with the willpower to push through, now they will give this everything they have to show those Crystal Prep jerks that they won't back down and will make things different this year.

Rainbow Dash and Flash went into the backstage where the rest of the Rainbooms and the others came to them as Trixie jumps onto Flash wrapping her arms around his next.

"Flash, my love. What you and Rainbow Dash just did, it was… it was Great and Amazing!" Trixie smiled.

"Even I feel like we can win!" Fluttershy said feeling more pump than she ever had in all of her life.

"I feel like my school pride is at an all-time high!" Rarity said cheerfully.

"Now I feel like I want to crush those Crystal Prep losers! Damn it, I should have signed up when I had the chance." Aria growled at herself.

"Don't worry, I'm sure you'll get your chance to shine." Sunset patted Aria on the back.

"Is anybody else wonderin' how Dash ponied up without playin' her guitar?" Applejack pointed out, thinking it was weird as that's how their magic works as long as they known.

"I know, right? It's probably because I'm so awesome!" Rainbow Dash bragged with a smirk.

"I won't deny that." Flash smirked.

"Maybe. I mean, you are awesome, but there's gotta be more to it than that, right? It just seems so random." Sunset stated.

"I'm sure it's nothing dangerous to worry about." Flash shrugged.

"Well, it would be nice if you girls could get a handle on it. We'd like to keep magic as far away from the Friendship Games as possible. We don't want to be accused of cheating." Luna pointed out.

"And that goes for you too, Flash. You better not use any demon powers in the games as well." Luna pointed at Flash.

"(Damn it, she got me.)" Flash thought grunted.

"Oh well, I'm still stronger and faster. So, I can still wipe the floor with those jokers." Flash smirked.

"We don't need magic to defeat those hoity-toity Crystal Preppers." Rarity believed and everyone agrees.

"If you want, Luna, I can offer my service by scaring any of the students from either school in case things between them get too intense or perhaps trying to prank each other before the events." Nevan said.

"Oh, well, that would be most grateful considered how the students can be with each other." Luna accepted the help from the lightning demon woman.

"Still, the Friendship Games are serious business. We don't want any surprises. Especially the kind that could cause us to forfeit. Sunset Shimmer, you came here from a world of magic. Perhaps you can get to the bottom of our magical development." Luna positioned Sunset to investigate this.

"I'll do my best." Sunset saluted.

"And I'll be sure to help her in any way I can." Flash offered to help Sunset as well.

"Splendid! I get the feeling you two might be more than what we can hope for." Luna smiled before walking away to her older sister.

"Okay. Anybody have any guesses what the events are gonna be?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Pie eating? Cake eating? Pie-cake eating?!" Pinkie gasped exciting as she pulls out a pie and a cake from her hair, and smash them together.

"It could be something boring like spelling bee or doing some science stuff." Aria rolled her eyes.

"They won't even let us see what they're doin' to the field. You think they'd at least tell competitors what they're competing in." Applejack said.

"It could be anything." Fluttershy said.

"Anything?! How will I ever pick the right outfit?!" Rarity worried.

"I wonder if whatever they're preparing for is expecting for both teams to be at a struggle?" Sonata asked.

"Something that could even put both teams at a big disadvantage and maybe a real struggle." Adagio concerned.

"I really wanna help, but I think I better go focus on figuring out why Rainbow Dash ponied up. See ya later!" Sunset said before walking away from the group.

"Catch you later." Flash waved goodbye as he follows Sunset.

"Hmm, something tells me it's Sunset who's going to be in the struggle here." Nevan said.

(Library)

Sunset is seen sitting at a table with all the research notes on her table about everything she knows about this world's magic so far, but none are giving her the idea of how Rainbow Dash was able to Pony Up without playing her guitar during the rally. That's when she decided to pull up her magic communication book to get in touch with Princess Twilight hopefully for some help.

"Hey, Twilight. Haven't heard back from you yet. I guess you must be pretty busy with your role as princess. But I could really use your advice right now. You see, I've been given the job of keeping magic under control here at CHS, even though I still haven't quite wrapped my head around it. And now after seeing Rainbow Dash pony up the way she did, it makes me think her magic might be... changing. Everyone is looking to me to figure things out and I really don't wanna let them down. But I'm not sure I have enough experience with friendship magic to solve this." Sunset finished writing and let out a sigh.

"Everything okay, Sunset?" Flash asked.

"Sure, peachy." Sunset exclaimed.

KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!

Rainbow Dash sure has done a great job with rallying everyone in Canterlot up for the Friendship Games as they believe in winning this year, but Sunset might not get to enjoy all that with the worry of magic popping up and some demon energy might be in the mix too.
