Chapter 25
Will Of Recap
This is a very special episode. It is a recap episode for seasons 1-4 of My Little Pony Will Of Fire. Included will be different polls that you, the loyal viewer, have voted on such as best fights, favorite characters, and funniest moments. Not to mention the reading of fan mail that you have sent me. There will also be special guests appearances with hints about the upcoming new season 5. How this episode will play out is during a show called 'Will Of Recap' on a TV set with a live audience. It will be hosted by Prince Flareon, Princess Twilight, and their friends. Now with further ado, I present to you the season 4 finale episode Will Of Recap! Here are your hosts! Flareon, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie! Take it away guys!" In the response, the audience stopped their hooves in applause as the studio lights came on, revealing seven ponies sitting around a table with a big flat screen TV behind them. The words 'Will Of Recap' in red, orange, and yellow lights were seen hanging above them. "Thank you Mr. Announcer for that amazing introduction," Twilight said happily, "Welcome to Will Of Recap everyone. My name is Twilight Sparkle and I'm here with my loving husband and best friends. We will be going over some of your favorite battles, moments, and characters from seasons 1-4 during this very special episode. We also will be having some guests joining us with hints about season 5 and responding to your fan mail." She then turned to Flareon.
"First off...we will be revealing your top 5 favorite battles," Flareon said as he pointed his right hoof at the TV screen which suddenly turned on and began to show the results.
The Top 5 Best Fights
1. Flareon vs Alexei
2. Flareon vs Dark Flareon
3. Flareon/Twilight vs Yin/Yang
4. Flareon vs Draco
5. Flareon vs Blue Thunder
When the results ended, the TV screen went blank again and the ponies started discussing them.
"I'm not surprised me and Alexei was voted the best fight," Flareon commented, "That battle was the toughest I've faced so far. Not to mention, I literally had to sacrifice myself to defeat him."
"Don't remind me," Twilight replied, "You were gone for an entire year. I'm just glad you were able to come back."
"Yeah...me too," Flareon said as he put his hoof on her hoof, "It was all thanks to Infinity. She was the one who allowed me to return to Equestria."
"I thought you and Blue Thunder should have been ranked 1st," Rainbow Dash said, "The way you heroically saved me from that heartless jerk was awesome. I've watched that fight more than ten times."
"When Flareon and Twilight faced off against Yin and Yang I was amazed and impressed at the power of their love," Rarity said, "Only if I could meet that special someone too. You're so lucky Twilight!"
"Thanks Rarity," Twilight replied, "I'm positive you will find someone that will love you and much as you love him one day!" The ponies continued on for fifteen more minutes talking about the top 5 fights and some battles that didn't make it into the top 5. Overall, each of them had different opinions about which battle was the best, but they did agree that Flareon vs Alexei and Flareon vs Dark Flareon definitely deserved to be one of the top 5 best battles throughout seasons 1-4. Just then, a ringing sound echoed throughout the room.
"Oh! That sound means it's time to us to welcome our first guest!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed as she pointed to the left, "You know him. You probably hate but really love him. He's Mr. Evil himself! Please welcome to the show the Dragon of Darkness...Alexei!" The audience stomped in applause as Alexei walked in the room at sat down in the chair at the end of the table.
"Thank you for having me everyone," Alexei said, "It's about time I had some sort of appearance. I was only in season 2 for a short while and then my character was killed off in season finale. Not to say I didn't see it coming because I had already read the script beforehand. Though it seemed unfair for me to get less screen time than Discord. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for him, but still...I deserved better."
"Yeah...well...you were the prime evil guy," Flareon replied, "It never goes good for him in the end. No matter what type of show it is."
"Evil or not Flareon, everyone deserves a happy ending," Fluttershy muttered. Alexei was shown nodding his head in agreement.
"So...Alexei. What can you tell us about season 5?" Twilight asked curiously.
"Ah yes...season 5," Alexei replied with a smile, "From what the developers are letting me spoil, I can say that there will be another main villain that will appear. Let's just say me and him are...connected."
"Connected? Connected in what way?" Rainbow Dash asked.
"You will have to watch season 5 to find out Rainbow Dash," Alexei replied as he waved his finger at her. He then turned to face the camera. "That goes for everyone watching too." After they were done interviewing him, Alexei waved goodbye to them and the audience as he walked off the set. Even though his appearance on the show was short, Alexei did provide a valuable clue about what is in store for season 5. It had to do something with a new villain appearing that was in someway connected with Alexei. As much as I would love to spoil it myself, I'm afraid I have to side with Alexei on this one. You will just have to wait till I begin writing season 5 sometime in the near future.
"Next up...we will reveal the top 5 funniest moments," Applejack said as she pointed towards the TV, which turned on again.
The Top 5 Funniest Moments
1. Fluttershy KO's Flareon
2. Mane 6 become Stallion 6
3. Flareon/Rainbow Dash interrogate Spike
4. Flareon becomes Flarena
5. Flareon/Rainbow Dash/Daring Do quicksand trap
After the TV screen went blank again, the ponies began discussing the results. Rainbow Dash was seen trying to hold back her laughter, but only for a few seconds before she couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Fluttershy KO's Flareon...I remember!" Rainbow Dash burst out in laughter, "It was so funny! He got owned so badly! Easily the funniest moment...ever!"
"It happened one time!" Flareon replied angrily.
"Um...Flareon," Fluttershy muttered with a hint of a small smile, "It actually happened two times...remember?"
"You aren't helping!" Flareon replied as Rainbow Dash laughed even louder. "Remember when you become a stallion and kept crashing into everything Rainbow Dash? That was number 2 on the list. Still want to keep laughing?" In an instant, Rainbow Dash stopped laughing.
"That was not funny!" Rainbow Dash shouted, "I really hated being a guy. My body frame was so different that my sense of flight was messed up. That's why I crashed so many times! All because you got mad we pranked you on April Fools Day."
"It's called payback Rainbow Dash...sweet payback," Flareon replied with a mischievous smile. In response, Rainbow Dahs crossed her hooves and refused to make eye contact with him.
"Even thought I hated it, I thought when my mane was cut by the CMC was pretty funny now that I look back at it," Rarity said.
"What about we when swapped bodies with our pets?" Applejack asked, "I remember we thought Flareon was behind it."
"You girls still haven't apologized to me for that," Flareon replied. Sadly for Flareon, they completely ignored him and kept on talking about the funniest moments. In the end, everyone had different opinions on what the top 5 funniest moments were, but they did on agree that Fluttershy KO's Flareon was the funniest moment in seasons 1-4 of My Little Pony Will Of Fire. The ponies continued a discussion of the funniest moments until they heard another bell sound ring, signaling the appearance of another special guest.
"It's time for another guest!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed happily, "You know her as Princess Celestia's younger sister. Please welcome to the show...the princess of the midnight moon...Luna!" The audience stomped in applause as Princess Luna walked into the room and sat down in the chair at the end of the table besides Rarity.
"Thank you letting me appear on your show," Princess Luna said with a smile, "My sister is going to be so jealous that I was invited instead of her." She then turned to face the camera. "I hope your watching this Celestia because I'm going to reveal what I had you do after losing our bet." In response, Flareon, Twilight, their friends, and the audience gasped in surprise.
"Your actually going to tell us?" Twilight asked with her eyes glowing in anticipation.
"That's right Twilight," Luna replied mischievously.
"So! So! So! Tell us already! Please!" Rarity exclaimed as she stood up in her chair.
"You know that golden chariot pulled by royal guards my sister usually rides in from time to time?" Luna asked with narrow eyes, "Well...as punishment for losing the bet, I had Celestia pull me in that anywhere and everywhere I wanted for an entire month. It was extreme satisfying since she never let me ride in it before. I had a lot of fun." The room immediately burst out in laughter after hearing what Princess Luna had told them. It took awhile for everyone to calm down. When Flareon and the others regained their composure, they continued on with the interview.
"So...Princess Luna. What can you tell us about My Little Pony Will Of Fire season 5?" Applejack asked, "The viewers watching are dying to find out what is in store for them next season!"
"Season 5 huh? Very well," Luna replied, "I don't want to spoil too much, but from what I can tell you, season 5 will take place 30 years in the future." In response, everyone gasped in surprise, but no one was more surprised than Pinkie Pie.
"30 years?!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, "We have to wait 30 years for the next season? No fair!"
"Don't be ridiculous Pinkie Pie," Twilight replied, "Princess Luna didn't literally mean a 30 year wait, she meant season 5 will be 30 years after season 4. So that means we were will a lot older than we are now."
"I'm not looking forward to being a senior adult," Rarity commented as she sighed deeply, "Why can't we stay looking the way we are now?"
"Because Rarity...ponies age," Flareon replied, "That's why. It's the same for humans too."
"Can you tell us anything more Princess Luna?" Rainbow Dash asked, "Like...do the rest of us get married or something?" In response, a smirk appeared on Luna's face as the audience began to murmur.
"Maybe," she replied, "You will just have to wait till season 5 to find out Rainbow Dash." The ponies continued to interview her for a few more minutes. Once the interview was done, Princess Luna waved goodbye to them and the audience as she walked off the set. Thanks to Alexei and Princess Luna, you now have two hints about what season 5 is about. Including a possible third hint that may or may not be true, but unfortunately, I can't tell you which one it is. Here is what has been revealed so far in the show.
Season 5 Hints
1. New main villain
2. 30 years in the future
3. Rest of Mane 6 getting married (?)
"We will now reveal to you the character popularity poll," Flareon said as he pointed to the TV screen, "This poll includes everyone from main characters, side characters, background characters, villains, and animals." The flat screen TV turned on once again and started to show the results.
The Character Popularity Poll
1. Prince Flareon
2. Princess Twilight Sparkle
3. Rainbow Dash
4. Princess Luna
5. Chibiterasu
6. Solana
7. Fluttershy
8. Derpy Hooves
9. Blue Thunder
10. Princess Celestia
11. Applejack
12. Prince Shining Armor
13. Alexei
14. Princess Cadance
15. Pinkie Pie
16. Bora
17. Princess Vesperia
18. Rarity
19. Discord
20. Spike
After the TV was done showing the results, it went off and the ponies got a discussion started about the popularity poll. Rarity, who was ranked 18th, was beyond furious.
"How was I ranked that low?!" Rarity cried out, "Especially behind Pinkie Pie no less." She then turned to left and immediately apologized. "Sorry Pinkie Pie."
"Number 1! That's what I'm talking about!" Flareon shouted happily, "Beat that Rainbow Dash!"
"Says the pony who got KO'd by Fluttershy," Rainbow Dash snickered.
"You're never going to let that go are you?" Flareon asked sarcastically.
"Chibiterasu was the only animal who made it into the top 20," Twilight stated as she looked down at her clipboard that also contained the character popularity poll, "He actually placed at number 5. That's really impressive. It says his popularity skyrocketed after the Opalcalypse episode when he transformed into an adult wolf."
"Blue Thunder at number 9? How? He only appeared in one episode," Applejack commented.
"Blue Thunder apparently had this cool factor about him that made him really popular," Twilight replied as she looked at her clipboard again, "Even though he was technically a villain."
"Look at Princess Luna at number 4," Flareon said as he looked at his clipboard too, "She was six spots ahead of Princess Celestia. That's really surprising. It says people really like her personality better than Celestia's." The ponies continued discussing the character popularity poll for ten more minutes. In the end, everyone had a different opinion about the poll. Such as what characters were snubbed and what characters were either ranked too high or too low. They did however agree that at least one of the other Cutie Mark Crusaders should have been in the top 20 along with Solana. Just then, another bell sound was heard ringing in the studio. It was time for another special guest appearance.
"Please welcome our third and final guest!" Pinkie Pie shouted, "You know her as the Goddess of Time and Space. The pony responsible for bringing Flareon to Equestria. She's as powerful as she is beautiful...it's Infinity!" The audience stomped in applause as Infinity walked into the room and sat down in the chair at the table with Flareon and the others.
"Thank you for having me everyone," Infinity said with a happy smile.
"So...Infinity darling," Rarity replied, "What can you tell us about season 5?"
"Very well," Infinity said as she moved in closer to the table, "I can tell you that season 5 will feature a new cast of main characters that the story will focus on."
"Wait...then that means...I won't be the protagonist anymore?" Flareon asked in a disappointed voice.
"That's correct Flareon...I'm sorry" Infinity replied, "But you, Twilight, and your friends will still be featured in season 5. Just as side characters this time."
"I see," Twilight said interested, "Can you tell us anything more Infinity?"
"Hmm...well, I can say there will be a new Princess of Equestria," Infinity replied, "I bet Flareon and Twilight know who it is." In response, Flareon and Twilight's eyes instantly lit up. When the others asked them who it was, they refused to reveal the answer. I'm sure though you probably know who Infinity is talking about. The ponies interviewed Infinity for a little longer, and when it was over, Infinity waved goodbye to everyone as she left the set. Thanks to her, Infinity was able to give a total of two hints about season 5. Here is what has been leaked.
Season 5 Hints
1. New main villain
2. 30 years in the future
3. Rest of Mane 6 getting married (?)
4. New main characters
5. New Princess of Equestria
"For the last segment of Will of Recap, we will be reading your fan mail," Flareon said as he pointed to a pile of different colored letters lying in the middle of the table. Twilight then pick a random letter and began reading it aloud.
"Dear Flareon, what was the hardest thing about becoming a pony? Sincerely, Jessica," Twilight said as she put in back on the table.
"Great questions Jessica!" Flareon replied as he put up his hooves and showed them to the camera, "Having hooves instead of hands and fingers. I can't tell you how hard that was for me to get used to. The other thing I would say would be walking on all fours instead of two legs." After Flareon put his hooves back down, Fluttershy choose a letter and began to read it.
"Dear Rainbow Dash, if you and Flareon had a rematch race around Equestria, who would win? Sincerely Jake," Fluttershy said. She then put the letter on top of the one Twilight read.
"Well Jake...that's an easy question," Rainbow Dash replied with a smirk, "Me."
"Yeah...no," Flareon said, "I think I would win this time Rainbow Dash. I'm a better flyer than I was before when I raced you and you cheated because of how you were scared of losing to me." As Flareon and Rainbow Dash started to argue, Twilight signaled to Pinkie Pie to choose a letter and read it to everyone.
"Dear Rarity, how to you keep your mane looking so beautiful and elegant? Sincerely, Kelly," Pinkie Pie said.
"I prep it daily. Three times a day to be exact," Rarity replied as she flaunted her mane towards the camera, "After breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It's not an easy task keeping my mane looking as good as it is." Rainbow Dash was then shown making a silent gagging noise while Rarity wasn't looking. In response, the audience quietly laughed. The ponies continued to read fan mail until only one letter remained.
"Looks like this is the last letter we have," Applejack said as she began to read aloud a letter she had chosen, "Dear Twilight Sparkle, what's the best thing about being a princess? Sincerely, Gabriel."
"Excellent question Gabriel!" Twilight replied with a big smile, "Probably everyone calling me princess and your highness is the best thing about being a princess. Also, me and Flareon get to go on all the rides in the Ponyville Amusement Park for free. Being a pony of royalty has its perks after all." At that moment, another bell sound was hearing ringing throughout the room, but this time it was a different tune. "Well everyone, Will Of Recap is just about over. Me, Flareon, and my friends would like to thank you for tuning in today. We hope you enjoyed today's episode and will continue to support My Little Pony Will Of Fire. We would also like to thank Alexei, Princess Luna, and Infinity for joining us on our show."
"Bye everyone!" the ponies shouted together as the audience gave them a roaring applause. That my friends was the epic season 4 finale. I hope you have enjoyed seasons 1-4 of My Little Pony Will Of Fire. I will get started on season 5 soon in about 2-4 weeks. I would also like to thank you for being such loyal readers too.
