This chapter is dedicated to those people who just barely lost on Game Shows (DD2000 - Missing the flag with one second on the clock). This is for you.

"Game Shows?" asked Fluttershy.

"Yeah. We compete in fun game shows," I explained. Twilight, Trixie, Spike, Scootaloo and Dashie followed me to the studio.

After waiting a while, we got dressed in jumpsuits. All I said was, "Your gonna need em'." We looked around at the studio. It had 2 podiums at opposite sides of the studio and tha podium between them. We got into position for the 25 bit lead challenge. A colt in a sweater trotted to the microphone. The lights turned on as a crowd of many ponies including our friends were in the audience.

"On your mark. Get set. Go!" We started to pop the water balloons with #1 foam fingers.

"These two teams are popping water balloons with giant foam fingers. The first team to pop them all gets a 25 bit lead in the show where being messy is a requirement,

"The red team's almost got it...oh!"

The crowd cheered as our team won. They got the stuff cleaned up as we went to our respective sides. My team was red, there's was blue.

"Now here's you host, Jason Harris."

"Thanks, Tiffany. Thanks, Everypony. Welcome to Double Dare 2000. The show where cleanliness is next to impossible." He was right. We were all covered in water. "Because this is Double Dare 2000, we have the Triple Dare Challenge!"

"Yippee. Triple Dare Challenge is so fun. It will make any pony smile anytime," Pinkie sang, trotting across the stage. She left afterwards. Confetti spewed everywhere.

"Yes. That's coming up in Round 2, but for now, we wanna play Round 1. We have 2 awesome teams. So let's meet them shall we? On my left, we have a team from Ponyville. Give it up for The Red Dash's. We hoof clapped as did the audience. "They are made up of Rainbow Dash, Green and Scootaloo. And on my right is another team from Ponyville. Give it up for The Blue Sparkle's. They are made up of Twilight Sparkle, Trixie and Spike. Now I'm gonna ask the Red Team a question worth 25 bits.If they know the answer, that's great. If they don't or think these guys don't have a clue, they can dare them to answer for double the bits. They have to be careful because they can be double dared right back for 4 times the bits at which point they'll have to answer or take the Physical Challenge. Red Team, your gonna start off with this 25 bit question. Who is the captain of the Canterlot Wonderbolts?"

We turned around and whispered the plan. We dare them, they double dare back and we say the right answer for 25 bits. We turned around. "Dare," I said.

"Okay. It goes to you, Red Team. Answer correctly and get the lead. Who is the captain of the Canterlot Wonderbolts?"

"Double Dare," Spike said.

"Back to Red Team. Answer for 4 times the amount or Physical Challenge."

"Spitfire," I answered.

"Correct. Now with 125 bits, Red Team is far in the lead. Next question: How many heads does a hydra have?"

"Dare," I answered.

"Blue Team."

"4," Twilight answered.

"Correct. The Blue Team now has 50 bits. Next question: Who's the ruler of Equestria?"

"Princess Celestia," Twilight said.

"Correct. The Blue Team now had 75 bits. Next Question: What is Princess Luna's Title?"

"Dare," Twilight said.

"Double Dare," I said back.

"Physical Challenge."

"There going for the Physical Challenge. It was The Princess of the Night. Now over to Pinkie to explain the challenge."

"Thanks, Jason. Today, we have a cupcake making challenge. You must go through these giant ingredients and mix them up in the bowl. If you complete this, not only will you gain the lead, but near the end of the show, we'll get to eat the cupcakes with the rest of the baking finished by me. you have 60 seconds."

"Thanks, Pinkie. All right. On your mark, Get set, Go!" After a slow start, they finish with 20 seconds to spare.

"Time. With 20 seconds left, The Blue Team gets the lead with 175 points and..."

BUZZ!

"That's the end of Round 1. Red Team has 125 and Blue has 175. But remember folks, Round 2 is coming up. Lots of Bits. Lots of Slime. So, don't go away."

"Now here's you host, Jason Harris."

"Thanks, Tiffany. As new to the show, we decided to let Red Team go as we left off with Blue Team last round. Remember, the questions are worth double now and the Triple Dare Challenge are coming, but now, time for questions. Red Team, here's your question: Name one animal part that Discord has."

"Lion Paw," Scootaloo answered."

"Correct. Red Team now has a tie with Blue with 175 bits a piece. Next Question: What species has eagle claws but is not an eagle?"

"Dare," Dashie said.

"Double Dare," Spike replied.

"Physical Challenge," Scootaloo said.

"They are going for the Physical Challenge. The answer was Griffin. Pinkie, explain the challenge."

"Thanks, Jason. Today, we have a cookie making challenge. You must go through these giant ingredients and mix them up in the bowl. If you complete this, not only will you gain the lead, but near the end of the show, we'll get to eat the cookies with the cupcakes with the rest of the baking finished by me. you have 60 seconds."

"But, of course, we also have the TRIPLE DARE CHALLENGE!"

*SIREN*

(Smoke comes out from the stage. Confetti and party stuff explodes all around.)

A black box on wheels that shows the TDC logo is wheeled onto the stage.

"If you go for what's in there, it's worth 300 bits." We talked it over and I borrowed his mic for a second.

"We're going for the Triple Dare Challenge!"

*Siren, smoke, confetti, etc.*

We open the box to reveal chocolate chips. I give a hooful to each member as a snack as they were adding giant ones to the challenge.

"Chocolate Chips. Add these in the mix for 300 bits. All right. 60 seconds on the clock. On your mark, get set, go!" Even though the weight of the ingredients was surprising, we managed to clear it with 11 seconds to spare.

"The Red Team now takes the lead with 475 bits and.."

*BUZZ*

"That means the game's over. The Red Team gets to move on to the Slopstacle Course. Sorry Blue Team. Before you go, though, Pinkie has some treats for all of us. While we enjoy these delicious baked treats, don't go away. We'll be back with the Slopstacle Course right after this."

BTW The treats were really good.

"Welcome Back. Rainbow, are you ready?" She nodded. "First is the Gak Vat. Your gonna race through the ballpit and slime with some dropped on yeah from above. Grab the flag, pass it off and win this GameStop gift-card for 50 bits."

"Next is the Blimp. Scootaloo, you'll have to pull the rope. Slime will fall on you. Find the flag, pass it off and win this 50 bit gift-card to AMC Movies."

"Last, Green, you'll go through the The Big Scoop. You'll climb up the carton, slide down the slide, grab the flag and win the grand prize of going to Universal Studios."

"All right. 40 seconds on the clock. On your mark, get set, GO!" Dashie went through the pit easily in 5 seconds, grabbed the flag in 1 and passed it to Scoots. She ran to the Blimp, pulled the string and found the flag in 2 seconds and handed it off to me. I climbed up the slide, went down the slide and grabbed the flag on the way down.

"THEY DID IT! THEY GOT IT! Tiffany, tell them what they've won."

"They've got the GameStop gift-card, the AMC gift-card and the Universal Studios."

"Wow. Not many win the whole thing. Thanks for...Whoa!" We grabbed him and we all had the same idea. We threw him into the ball-pit. I grabbed his mic.

"Thanks for watching. He's been Jason Harris. I'm Green the pony. See you next time on Double Dare 2000."  

*Ending theme*

We exited the place with Universal tickets and bits in our pockets. We got to our room with our pets waiting there. Tank was sleeping on the bed as were the Pokemon. We cuddled up with them. We slept sound that night as we had lots of fun that day.

BTW To those who missed the flag on Challenge 8, let us all have a moment of silence for them.

END!
