My Little Pony Friendship is Magic: May the Best Pet Win!

A/N: It's Friday once again and I managed to convince Lyra to give the potions back to Sunny Bunny and Dr. Hooves, especially with the smoke coming from a fire on Mt. Nebo. So, this is a definite stay indoors day for me so that my asthma doesn't start acting up.

Dr. Hooves: What is asthma?

Dede42: It's a breathing condition that affects the lungs and anything, like say a lot of smoke or too much running can cause it to act up.

Sunrise Blossom: That's horrible!

Dede42: I know, but it's something that I live with. Anyhoo, the rewrite will come up later today, as long as a certain unicorn doesn't run off with the potions again.

Lyra: I promise that I won't steal again.

Dede42: You better keep that promise this time, Lyra. So, I don't know if I'll be able to update tomorrow since I have back-to-back shifts with both of my jobs, and I don't update, then don't worry and you can expect updates on Monday.

Read, review, and enjoy!

CHAPTER ONE: PONY PET PLAYDATE

It was another nice day and Rainbow Dash was flying fast through the sky, enjoying herself. "Ha-ha! Whoo-hoo! Yeah!" She laughed as she did a series of tricks, and then she was startled when she heard hooting nearby. "Whoa! Who?" She then saw a familiar owl flying nearby. "Oh, it's you, Owlowiscious. C'mon, try and keep up!" She then took off with Owlowiscious in hot pursuit.

Soon they were having a race through the clouds, and Rainbow Dash laughed, flying after the owl, and then she became confused when she heard barking. She caught up with Owlowiscious, only to see that he now had the head of Winona, which barked again.

"Winona?" she said, perplexed. "I mean… Winona's head?!" Suddenly the head turned into that of a certain white bunny and the body of a certain green lizard, and she was growing more confused as the mixed-up creature flew around her with the owl wings. "Um, is this weird, or is it just me? Angel? Gummy?! Okay, this is officially beyond weird now and right on down to freaky town," she declared.

Suddenly Angel opened her mouth and both Opalescence and Rosemary popped out, hissing.

Rainbow Dash gasped and suddenly she was falling toward the ground far below. "Yaaaaah!"

Rainbow Dash woke up with a start, almost falling off the tree branch she'd been sleeping on. "Whaa!" Blinking she saw Opalescence and Rosemary in the tree, yowling down at Winona, who was barking up at them, Gummy was standing next to the dog, Angel was hopping around, and Owlowiscious was hovering nearby, hooting.

"Phew," she said, wiping her forehead with relief when she realized that she'd been having a dream. She was wondering why the pets were there when her friends arrived, chatting.

"Let's get this thing started!" said Applejack and soon she was playing fetch with Winona while Pinkie Pie was giggling and playing with Gummy, Owlowiscious flew over to Twilight Sparkle, Angel went to Fluttershy, and both Rarity and Sunrise Blossom went to the tree to retrieve their cats.

"Sincerest apologies, Rainbow," the grey unicorn told Rainbow Dash when she landed, "if our pets were bothering you." And she looked at Opalescence when she meowed. "Say you're sorry, Opal," she ordered and winced when her cat hissed. "She's… sorry."

Rainbow Dash, however, was more curious of why her friends were there with their pets. "What are you all doing out here?" she asked.

"Why, we always round up our critters for a regular ol' Pony Pet Playdate in this park," Applejack answered while tossing the stick for her dog to fetch.

The blue pegasus blinked since this was news to her. "Uh, you do?"

Applejack nodded. "Same time every week."

"I thought you knew," said Fluttershy, surprised. "You didn't know? She didn't know?"

"Well, we had initially planned on inviting Rainbow, of course, except-" Twilight Sparkle began.

"We were totally gonna invite you, Rainbow," Pinkie Pie interrupted with Gummy latched onto her head, "then Twilight and Sunrise both remembered that you don't even have a pet, and Rarity remembered that you really like to take naps in the afternoon, so Applejack figured you wouldn't be missing out on anything anyway, and Fluttershy and I nodded our heads in agreement like this." And she nodded both the yellow pegasus' head and her head at the same time.

Fluttershy flushed. "Oh, please don't be mad at us," she pleaded.

"Oh, I'm not mad," Rainbow Dash said quickly, flying back to the branch and her pillow. "You all are right. Not much point of a Pony Pet Playdate for me if I'm a pony without a pet, right?"

"Eeexactly," Applejack agreed. "So, if'n you'll excuse us…"

Rainbow Dash settled back on the pillow to resume her nap, but she kept glancing at her friends, who were having fun with their pets. 'They sure are having fun,' she thought, feeling left out, and she landed back on the ground, startling the ponies. "Hey, now wait a minute!" she snapped. "Just because I don't have a pet now doesn't mean I never want a pet!"

"Ohh! Y, y, Oh, really?" Fluttershy asked excitedly, carrying Angel in her tail as she flew over to the blue pegasus. "You really want a pet? Really? 'Cause I've got so many wonderful choices at my house!" She scooped up her friend and headed for her home, oblivious to the fact that Rainbow Dash was looking annoyed and was flapping her own wings to keep her hooves from dragging on the ground. "Oh, and I know you'll just love them! And they'll love you! Oh, and you'll be best friends forever and ever! Oh!"

The five ponies watched them fly off, surprised since it was rare to see Fluttershy so happy, but given her talent with animals, it kinda made sense.

"So, what kind of pet do you think Rainbow Dash will pick?" Pinkie Pie wondered.

"Given that this is Rainbow Dash we're talking about, I'm guessing it'll be able to fly," Sunrise Blossom guessed.

"'course it'll probably be a while since Fluttershy has so many different animals living at her house," Applejack remarked, and the other ponies agreed before resuming their playdate with their own pets.

What kind of pet was Rainbow Dash going to choose? It was a mystery.
