A/N: (Dede42 finishes reading the reviews when Applejack enters the writers studio with a sad expression on her face and tears running down her cheeks.)
Dede42: Hey, Applejack, there's a hot coco next to the couch for you. And if you want, I'll also get you a hot apple cider.
Applejack: (sits on the couch and picks up the hot coco) Thanks, Dede42. I can't believe how horrible I was to Twilight in that story.
Dede42: I know how you feel, AJ, and sometimes when you do something a certain way for so long, changing can be hard. (She turns to the camera while Applejack nods and drinks her hot coco) Hey, Roleplayer48, I'm not angry at you for the website logging me out like that, and that author's note was going to cover Sunrise Blossom's first ever Winter Wrap experienced when she first moved to Ponyville. In fact, when Sunrise goes to talk to the mayor, it'll be covered. ;)
(Winter Wrap Up: Deleted Scene 2: Does Twi's ice skating remind ya of anything?)
*So Twilight Sparkle tries ice skating, yadda yadda yadda, it goes horribly wrong, she crashes into Pinkie and then into a pile of snow the same way a Thomas The Tank Engine crash would go. (Yes, I'm a fan of that as well and I apologise if Dede42 isn't. But then, I'm not really a fan of Doctor Who or Harry Potter or any other stuff she likes either but that's not the point I'm making here so why am I rambling?). Sunrise Blossom (who is still in the cinema watching these episodes with you know who) pauses the scene.*
Sunrise Blossom: You know, I can't help but notice that Twilight's attempt at ice skating reminds me of a scene from a film I know involving failed attempts at ice skating.
Timon: It's not Bambi is it? Because that film is just WAY too sad even for Disney's standards.
Pumbaa: Yeah. I hear the scene with Bambi's mother being dead is even sadder than Mufasa's death.
(It's pretty obvious why I, RolePlayer48, would prefer Lion King 1 1/2 and Timon and Pumbaa's TV show over the first Lion King movies. Trust me, Timon and Pumbaa never have anything that would make an audience cry like death. Apologies to those who do like the first movies though but I'm more of a Timon and Pumbaa fan rather than a Simba one. This messages applies to you too, Dede42)
Sunrise Blossom: No no no. This reminds me of a scene from Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too. You know? The part where Tigger tries ice skating?
Timon: Oh.
Pumbaa: Ah, now I see what you're on about. Why don't we briefly watch that scene and see if you're right?
Sunrise Blossom: Good idea. (Presses button on remote and the scene changes to the scene from The Many Adventures Of Winnie the Pooh where Tigger tries ice skating)
Tigger: Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! Whee! (Jumps on the ice) Say, this is a sinch! Whee! (Then he slips and loses control) Ooh! Whoa!
Rabbit: (who is also ice skating notices Tigger coming his way) Oh no! Not him!
Tigger: Uh-oh! Look out!
Rabbit: It can't be! (Tries to get out of the way but also slips)
Tigger: Out of the way!
Rabbit: Go away!
Tigger: Look out! I can't- WHOA! (Slips and falls on Rabbit and...you know this scene already, do I really need to say how the crash goes?)
Rabbit: (who crashed into his house with a picture frame on his head) Oh! Why does it always happen to me? Why oh why oh why?
Roo: Tigger! Tigger! Are you alright?
Tigger: (comes out of a pile of snow) EYUCK! Tiggers don't like ice skating!
Timon: (pauses the scene) Whoa Sunrise. You're right. Twiley's ice skating IS a lot like Tigger's.
Sunrise Blossom: And it's given me a great lot of nostalgia seeing that scene.
(And RolePlayer48 pausing the deleted scene again to break the fourth wall saying, I hope it gave YOU, whoever's reading, nostalgia if you haven't seen Winnie the Pooh in a while)
Pumbaa: Hey! Do you know what else this reminds me of?
Timon: Oh no! I think I know where this is going!
Sunrise Blossom: What Pumbaa? What does it remind you of?
Timon: Trust me Sunny. You're honestly better off not knowing.
Pumbaa: It reminds me of how badly Timon tried ice skating in one of our TV series episodes. (Timon faceplams)
Sunrise Blossom: Oh really? Is that so?
Timon: Don't listen to him. He's just lying.
Pumbaa: In fact, here's a clip show of all the times he messed up. (Presses button on remote)
Timon: PUMBAA! NO!
*We then see a montage of all the times Timon messed up ice skating from the Timon and Pumbaa episode ''Ice Capades''. You know, you're always welcome to watch it on Dailymotion after reading these deleted scenes. Trust me, you'll love it.*
Sunrise Blossom: (trying her hardest to hold back breaking into laughter after the montage ends)
Timon: Thank you very much Pumbaa! (Snatches remote) I'll have that back now if you don't mind!
Sunrise Blossom: (just falls over laughing loudly) Oh Timon! You're even worse than Twilight and Tigger! (Continues laughing)
Timon: Ah shut up, it wasn't that funny! (Presses button on remote and the scene changes back to Winter Wrap Up). Right, now where were we?
(Well, that ends THAT deleted scene. Now for the next one...it's a good thing AJ's not here right now or she'd be crying loudly again. Ahem. Winter Wrap Up: Deleted Scene 3: AJ and the Mayor's just desserts)
Applejack: Nuts Twilight! You used magic!
Spike: I know, right? The NERVE!
Twilight Sparkle: WHAT?! YOU TOLD ME TO USE IT, STUPID!
Sunrise Blossom: Applejack, please calm down...
Applejack: That's not how we do things 'round her Twi. And especially NOT. ON. MAH. FARM! (Sunrise gasps)
Twilight Sparkle: (tearing up) Well see, I just wanted to...(runs away crying loudly)
Sunrise Blossom: (runs after her) Twilight wait! It was an accident! You were only trying to help! Applejack just lost her temper!
Twilight Sparkle: (still crying) Just leave me alone, Sunrise! I don't need you showing me that you can do anything while I can't seem to do ANYTHING AT ALL! (Runs even further way while crying until she is completely out of sight)
Sunrise Blossom: (gets angry pretty quick) Well Applejack, I hope you're happy!
Applejack: Wait, huh?
Sunrise Blossom: Yes Applejack! I'm talking to you!
Applejack: Me? Ah didn't do nothin' wrong! Twi's the one who broke tradit...
Sunrise Blossom: (suddenly shouting) IT. WAS. AN. ACCIDENT!
Applejack: B-but...
Sunrise Blossom: No AJ! I don't want another word out of it! You made my sister cry and nopony, i repeat, NOPONY makes my only sister cry!
Applejack: (gulps)
Sunrise Blossom: I mean, what would your parents say if they saw you do this?
Applejack: But ah don't have parents...well...not anymore...'cause they died.
Sunrise Blossom: Well I'd bet your mother would say ''Applejack, I thought i had raised you better than this! Even if what you're new friend had done was wrong, you only made things WORSE! What were you thinking? You, young lady, are GROUNDED! Go to your room! Now!''
Applejack: B-b-b-but...the tradition! The no using magic law...the mayor's orders...
Sunrise Blossom: What's more important, AJ? This stupid Winter Wrap Up tradition or my sister's feelings?
Applejack: But...ah ain't the one who came up with Winter Wrap Up and it's rules in the first place!
Sunrise Blossom: Oh really? And who is?
Applejack: Um...maybe the mayor?
Sunrise Blossom: Well in that case, I'm going to go see her right now! I am gonna tell her that this dumb tradition that I no longer care about caused my one and only sister to go in depression and ask her about this no magic law! And I'd better hurry before Twilight's depression gets worse. She could commit suicide! And it's all your fault!
Pinkie Pie: (who has seen the whole thing and now dressed as a cheerleader) Rick em rack em rock em rerve! Give that gal what she deserves!
Applejack: Ya'll stay outta this Pinkie. Ah already got lots to think about.
Pinkie Pie: (now bored) AJ, AJ, she's our gal, if she can't do it...GREAT!
(Can any of you guess what film Pinkie just referenced?)
Sunrise Blossom: (runs off to Mayor Mare while still ranting) What is wrong with every earth pony that lives here? (Voice gets quieter as she gets further away) One minute, they love and praise unicorns and say how proud they are to have magical talents and the next minute it's ''no magic allowed, it always leads to trouble''. Is every earth pony or whoever came up with Winter Wrap Up racist to us unicorns? Well we'll just see 'bout that!
(Applejack is still left behind with Spike in the pile of snow both stunned and confused at what had just transpired. At that moment, her conscience manifests into the form of a beautiful angelic pony with a horn and wings and draped in a flowing white dress hovering above her)
Angel Pony: Sunrise is right, you know. Even if you're friend Twilight Sparkle made a mistake that wasn't intentional or on purpose, that did NOT give you the right to yell at her like a puppy that left a spot on the carpet and make her cry. You should be ashamed of yourself.
(And as you can probably guess, a devil pony shows up as well like they always do when an angel appears)
Devil Pony: Aw, don't listen to that goody two-horseshoes! You gave that purple princess wannabe just what she deserved! How else are ponies supposed to learn anything if you don't put your hoof down when they mess up big time?
Angel Pony: You've known Twilight since the day she first came to Ponyville. Do you honestly think she would do something like this on purpose?
Devil Pony: Oh please! She broke tradition! You know the rules! No magic allowed etc etc etc.
Angel Pony: I know things look bad, but how do you think Twilight feels right now? It's only pretty obvious that the poor dear must be so sad! (Paints a visual picture with her magic of Twilight with a sad face)
Devil Pony: Pah! Who cares? She'll get over it eventually!
Applejack: (getting worried) Spike, please tell me Sunrise is wrong. Ah wasn't that hard on Twi' was I?
Spike: Well you definitely didn't say anything nice to her, that's for sure. And you're supposed to be the element of honesty?
Applejack: (feels as if her heart would split) Ah can't believe it! (Begins to cry) Ah got mad at Twilight for no reason! (Begins to bawl) AH'M SO STUPID! (Continues bawling)
Angel Pony: You're not stupid, AJ. You just made a bad decision. If I were you, after Winter Wrap Up is over, I'd go to Twilight's library and apologise to her.
Devil Pony: I'd hate to admit it but that's a great idea! Of course, the chances are that Twilight will be too upset to talk or she's probably gone and run off somewhere or even, as Sunrise earlier said, commit suicide!
Applejack: Okay, you two really aren't helping mah case at the moment.
Devil Pony: Oh right. Bye! (Disappears along with Angel Pony)
When Sunrise Blossom reached the center of the town, she'd calmed down somewhat, and she was starting to have second thoughts about how she'd treated Applejack. 'I shouldn't have yelled at her like that,' she thought guilty while heading to Town Hall, where Mayor Mare was talking with some ponies. 'After I talk with the mayor, I'll go back to Sweet Apple Acres to apologize to AJ.' "Madame Mayor, may I have a word?" she requested.
"Of course, Miss Blossom," Mayor Mare said. "How are things going with the fields?"
"Not too well," Sunrise Blossom confessed. "Twilight used magic and it caused a bit of conflict. And it also had me wondering why magic isn't used since there are a number of unicorns living here in Ponyville."
Mayor Mare sighed. "Well, it's traditional to not use magic," she admitted. "I once asked my grandfather that same question and he told me that when his very great grandfather was mayor of Ponyville and the first unicorns moved here, they did try to use magic to get Winter Wrap Up done, but it caused so much trouble, that it was decided by every pony, including unicorns, that magic wouldn't be used."
"I never knew that," Sunrise Blossom admitted. "I guess it makes sense if magic caused problems instead of solving them."
"Only at that time," Mayor Mare reminded the orange unicorn. "Magic helps other ways, just not with Winter Wrap Up. Is there anything else?"
Sunrise Blossom shook her head. "No, and thank you for clearing that up, Madame Mayor." She then headed back to Sweet Apple Acres to apologize to Applejack and get the fields cleared of snow.
A/N: (Dede42 finishes her writing and glances at Applejack, who is sitting next to her.)
Dede42: How does that look to you?
Applejack: Looks good and it does make sense if magic failed to work when it was tried for Winter Wrap Up. I just hope Twilight will forgive me for yelling at her like that.
Dede42: I'm sure she will, AJ. (looks to the camera.) I hope you like what I added on the end, Roleplayer48, and I have no problem with you not being a fan of live action stuff like Harry Potter or Doctor Who. It's absolutely fine, and sometimes I feel the same way with some of the stuff out there nowadays. Later! ;)
