A/N: Yay! New deleted scene! Onward!
Feeling Pinkie Keen: Deleted Scene 1: A Rather Literal Leap Of Faith!/Does Twilight REALLY Hate Pinkie Pie For Just Being Herself?/How I Feel This Episode Should've Ended.
*Do I really need to explain all this? Basically, Twilight and the gang have gotten themselves into a WHOLE lot of trouble with a monster called a hydra all because she was obsessed with proving Pinkie Pie's Pinkie Sense wrong as if she secretly hated her and her cartoony abilities with all her guts. Now, that's just not right at all. Come on, Twilight. So what if Pinkie can do the impossible? That's no reason to spy on her or refuse to admit her predictions were true or...do anything that indicates you just want her to be normal when she's perfectly fine the way she is the same as everyone else is, right? Well anyway, as the hydra chases the group up a big hill, they suddenly come across a rather large gap between their current location, and the trail is on the other side of the gap. Now, they stand there staring uneasily at the outcrops which are unfortunately their only means of getting across.*
Sunrise Blossom: (gasps at how high above the bog they are) Oh no! Not heights! ANYTHING but heights! I'm NO good with heights! I'm TERRIFIED of heights! I've NEVER liked heights! I have a PHOBIA of heights! (Starts to panic) Oh, for the love of Celestia! (Shakes Twilight violently) SOMEPONY DO SOMETHING!
Twilight Sparkle: (still being violently shaken) I'M THINKING! I'M THINKING! (Sunrise lets go of her) Oof! (Shakes the dizziness out of her head as looks behind her) Ugh, he'll be up here in no time! Quick, one at a time, cross!
Spike: (takes one look and shakes his head) Nyu-uh! Uh, I don't suppose you know any spells for turning four-headed hydras into a mouse, do you?
Twilight Sparkle: No.
Spike: Okay then. How about a squirrel?
Twilight Sparkle: No!
Spike: What about a...
Twilight Sparkle: NO! No small rodents of ANY kind!
Spike: (getting all indignant) Well, WHY not then, Twilight?! Do you have something AGAINST small rodents of any kind or something? Are you AFRAID of mice like elephants are?
Fluttershy: (confused) Elephants are afraid of mice?
Twilight Sparkle: Spike...
Spike: Or do you just not like ANY of my ideas that'll make things easier because of that ONE time they caused Applejack to get mad at you for no real reason?
Fluttershy: (gasps) Applejack got MAD at you?!
Twilight Sparkle: Not now, Fluttershy!
Spike: Because if that's the case, what makes you so sure that turning a hydra into something else would instantly trigger a temper tantrum from Applejack a SECOND time?
Twilight Sparkle: (losing her patience) SPIKE! I JUST DON'T KNOW ANY SPELLS FOR TURNING HYDRAS INTO OTHER HARMLESS CREATURES! OKAY?!
Spike: (covers his ears) Ow! M-m-m-message received, Twilight.
Fluttershy: Well, I don't know about any of you, but I'm just gonna jump for it! (Prepares herself) And a hop, a skip, and a... JUMP! (Leaps onto the first outcrop like a boss and continues leaping until she reaches the other side)
Sunrise Blossom: (turns to Spike) Well, Spike, I guess that makes it our turns next then. (Picks him up) Up, up and away! (Tosses him up into the air against his will)
Spike: WHOA! (Lands onto the first outcrop) Oof! What the-? ARE YOU CRAZY?! This seems kind of DANGEROUS!
Sunrise Blossom: (leaps onto the outcrop where Spike is) No more room for doubt! Come on! (Continues leaping across the outcrops while carrying poor Spike with her magic)
Pinkie Pie: (shuddering from her Pinkie Senses) Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa! (Sees she's about to fall off the ledge and into the bog) YIPE!
Applejack: (grabs Pinkie by the tail as fast as she can) GOTCHA! (Pulls her to safety just in time) Phew! That was a close call!
Pinkie Pie: Yeah. It sure was. Thanks, Applejack. I owe you one. (Begins shuddering again) U-u-u-h o-o-o-h! H-e-r-e w-e g-o a-g-a-i-n!
Twilight Sparkle: (sees the hydra getting closer and gasps) He's getting closer towards us by the second! You two go on ahead! I'll distract him as best as I can! Don't you worry about me! Just go!
Applejack: Whatever you say, Twilight! Come on, Pinkie! Let's go! (Leaps across the outcrops, taking Pinkie Pie with her)
Twilight Sparkle: (faces the incoming monster, wondering how to defeat it) Oh... What would a brave pony like Rainbow Dash do in a situation like this if she was ever in one? (Suddenly realises) Hang on a second! Where IS Rainbow Dash when you need here at a time like this anyway?
Spongebob Squarepants Narrator With The French Accent: Meanwhile back in Ponyville...
*Rainbow Dash is napping on a tree outside Rarity's boutique and is dreaming about being a Wonderbolt here.*
Rainbow Dash: (snores) Me a Wonderbolt? Yes please! (giggles and snores some more.)
Twilight Sparkle: (sarcastically) Oh, great. JUST great! Here I am face to face with a giant four-headed monster with NO plan on how to distract it whatsoever and Rainbow Dash is somewhere out there asleep in a tree snoring up a storm when I REALLY need her the most! Hmph! Some "Element of Loyalty" SHE turned out to be! I mean how can anyone think of SLEEPING at a time like THIS?! (Gasps in realisation) That's it! I'll use my magic to cast a sleep spell on the hydra! That'll stop it from chasing after us! Of that, I'm DEFINITELY sure! (Puts on a brave face and begins charging towards the hydra) Chaaarge! (Begins casting the sleep spell on the hydra with her magic…only to have the magic bounce off the hydra and hits Twilight Sparkle instead.)
Pinkie Pie: (still shuddering on the other side of the huge gap with the rest of her friends) T-T-T-twilight!
Twilight Sparkle: (now laying on the ground asleep, snoring) Haha! Take that, you foul beast! (Snores again) You may be big and have four heads, but you are NO match for me when it comes to my magic skills! (Lets out a laugh before continuing on snoring)
Fluttershy: (watching all of this from the other side of the huge gap, confused) Um...what is she doing over there?
Applejack: From the looks of it, ah'd say she's playing dead. Not really sure why she'd think now would be a good time to pretend to be a dog though.
Sunrise Blossom: I don't think she's pretending to be dead long enough for the hydra to just walk away, Applejack. I think maybe she was trying to cast a spell on it and it somehow...backfired.
Spike: "Backfired"?! Twilight's spells?! No way! Her spells almost NEVER backfire! Right? (Now feeling uncertain) R-right? (Pauses again) Uh, why isn't anybody answering me?
Sunrise Blossom: (sighs) I'd better go get her. Be right back. (Leaps back across the outcrops)
Pinkie Pie: (still shuddering from her Pinkie Senses) S-S-S-sunrise! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
*The moment Sunrise finishes leaping back across the outcrops, she rushes to sleeping Twilight's rescue, picks her up onto her back, and runs carefully back to the gap as quickly as she can and is just about to make the leap when one of the hydra's heads crashes into the ledge, knocking it forward, causing poor Sunrise to leap off towards one of the outcrops. But, surprise, surprise. She misses it by a full inch and now, she and her still sleeping sister fall to their inevitable dooms. What's the smartest thing Sunrise can think of doing at a time like this now? Teleport herself and Twilight safely back to the other side of the gap where their friends are still there waiting and watching. Does any of this wake poor Twilight up though? Nope. Apparently not.*
Sunrise Blossom: Alright, Twilight, wake up! The moment has passed! The hydra is gone now! (Slaps her in the face a few times) WAKE UP!
Twilight Sparkle: (wakes up right away) AGH! Wha-?! What happened? Did we do it? Did we beat the hydra? Are we all safe now? And...how did I get over here so quickly? I don't remember leaping over the outcrops.
Sunrise Blossom: No, Twilight. You DIDN'T. I had to CARRY you all the way back here because you tried to cast a sleep spell on that hydra and it backfired on you pretty badly! For heaven's sake, sister! What were you thinking?! You practically put yourself in danger doing that!
Twilight Sparkle: Never mind that now, Sunrise. That's not important. What IS important right now though is that we're all safe and sound. (Turns to Pinkie Pie) Pinkie, I don't know how it happened; coincidence, dumb luck, or what, but you said there'd be a doozy here at Froggy Bottom Bog, and I'd say we just had ourselves one heck of a doozy. I mean, that hydra...
Pinkie Pie: (starts shuddering again) T-t-t-that w-w-w-wasn't i-i-i-i-it!
Twilight and Sunrise: (now sharing perplexed looks) Huh?
Spike: What wasn't what?
Applejack: What are you talkin' about, Pink?
Pinkie Pie: The hydra wasn't the doozy. Neither was Twilight's sleeping spell backfiring like that or Sunrise rescuing her like the hero she really is. I'm still getting the shudders. (Begins shuddering again) Oo-o-oh, oo-o-oh! You see? There it is again. Whatever the doozy was at Froggy Bottom Bog, my Pinkie Sense says it still hasn't happened.
Twilight Sparkle: (jaw drops in confusion) Huh? But I- WHAT?!
Sunrise Blossom: Uh oh.
Twilight Sparkle: (feeling herself slowly getting madder and madder with each question she asks) The hydra WASN'T the doozy? Me trying and FAILING to cast a sleep spell on the hydra WASN'T the doozy?! Sunrise coming to my rescue WASN'T the doozy?! How could any of THOSE three things NOT be the doozy?! What could be DOOZIER than THAT?!
Pinkie Pie: (shrugs between the shuddering) Dunno. But it just wasn't it.
Twilight Sparkle: (eyes twitch slightly before she begins screaming with rage and sets her own mane and tail on fire in the process) GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! That DOES it! That REALLY does it! I've HAD it, Pinkie Pie! I've had it with you and your Pinkie Sense and your so-called predictions that somehow keep unexplainably coming true when they shouldn't! But if there's one thing that REALLY crosses the line, it's you saying there was NO doozy when there clearly WAS a doozy! I will NEVER understand how your logic works when it comes to your Pinkie Sense, Pinkie! But by the way things seemed to have turned out, it's clear to me that not even YOU understand how your own logic works either! You know what you are, Pinkie Pie? Random! TOO Random! That's what you are! Honestly, why can't you just be a NORMAL pony like EVERYPONY ELSE?! (Takes a few deep breaths until she finally calms down and sees the devasted look on Pinkie's face) P-Pinkie?
(Yeah. I know what you're thinking. And you're right. Normally, I wouldn't approve of this sort of thing happening to poor Pinkie Pie when she doesn't really deserve it at all. But this is apparently the ONLY exception I'll EVER make. Not because I'm on Twilight's side on this one or anything though, but because there's an AWFUL lot of indication throughout this particular episode that there's some sort of grudge Twilight has against Pinkie Pie whenever something happens regarding her Pinkie Sense and other weird and crazy predictions that always somehow come true. Now, as hurtful as it would be to sit through if this little "rant" from Twilight here actually DID happen in this episode, it probably would've made a little more sense to me if it did happen because Twilight, at this point, barley knows Pinkie Pie and her cartoony hijinks and abilties that well yet, so Twilight yelling at Pinkie for no real reason ACTUALLY makes sense here. Unlike the poor treatment Pinkie seems to suffer from her own friends for no REAL reason whatsoever starting from Season 7 and onwards. Also unlike those seasons, at least in an EARLIER season, no one really gets away scott free from being mean to their own friends. There's always some sort of apology that makes up for it shortly afterwards...at least...to my knowledge anyway. Just thought I felt the need to get all that off my chest before anyone starts calling me out over making Twilight angry at Pinkie when I'm supposed to be AGAINST that sort of thing. Sorry to slow you down.)
Pinkie Pie: (ears are droopy like Eeyore's ears) Oh, I see. I'll be going now. (She starts to leave.)
Twilight Sparkle: Pinkie! Wait, I-.
Pinkie Pie: I can't talk to you right now. (And she runs away with tears in her eyes.)
Twilight Sparkle: (watches the pink pony leave) Oh no. What have I done?
Applejack: Let's head back to Ponyville and figure this out there. (And they head back.)
*The ponies and Spike return to Ponyville and Sunrise Blossom takes her twin aside to talk to her.*
Sunrise Blossom: Twilight, do you REALLY hate Pinkie Pie?
Twilight Sparkle: (thrown off for a second) What? Of course I don't hate Pinkie Pie! Why would you even ask me that kind of question in the first place, sister? I don't quite understand!
Sunrise Blossom: Well, the way you've been acting back there DOES raise quite a few questions here and there. Not only that, but you've been acting pretty strange around Pinkie pretty much all day what with you wanting to prove her Pinkie Sense wrong and all. It's... it's almost like... you don't... TRUST her or something. It's like you're not alright with the way she acts or how she is despite being one of her best friends. I mean, I know the amount of crazy things Pinkie Pie has done lately can be a little hard to understand or...just don't make much sense at all sometimes, but me and the others have all warmed up to it since I first came here. Why can't you?
Twilight Sparkle: (sighs) Okay, okay. I MAY have overreacted a little bit back there.
Sunrise Blossom: "A LITTLE"?! You were so angry, you somehow managed to set your mane and tail on fire! You call THAT "a little"?!
Twilight Sparkle: Alright, so I overreacted MORE than a little bit back there. But listen, Sunrise, I would NEVER hate Pinkie Pie. Not in a million years. And about how random she can be, I've started to slowly warm up to her hyperactive personality too. I just have a... tendancy to have a lot difficulty trying to believe in something that doesn't really make that much sense to me at first. And to me, the Pinkie Sense REALLY doesn't make that much sense. But at the same time, it just somehow...DOES!
Sunrise Blossom: Aw, Twilight, just because something doesn't make a lot of sense doesn't mean it's not true. You just have to take a leap of faith sometimes, and not just to escape a hydra. There are plenty of things in the world out there that should make sense, but they don't, and yet, they still somehow work out rather well despite it not making much sense.
Twilight Sparkle: I guess you're right, Sunrise. I should've realised all that from the start instead of trying to make sense out of Pinkie's...sense. Now, I should go find her and tell her how sorry I truly am.
Sunrise Blossom: You mean you believe?
Twilight Sparkle: (giggles) I guess I do, sister. I guess I do.
Sunrise Blossom: Well then, you'd best get a move on!
Twilight Sparkle: Right! Wish me luck! (Runs off to Sugarcube Corner)
Sunrise Blossom: You don't need it!
Timon: (pauses the show) Wait, so Twilight Sparkle is going to apologize to Pinkie Pie?
Sunrise Blossom: (nods) Yup, she listened to me, for I was right.
Pumbaa: Yay!
Timon: I gotta see this. (pushes the button on the remote and the show resumes playing.)
(Twilight Sparkle enters Sugarcube Corner and goes up to Pinkie Pie's room. She can hear Pinkie's muffle cries through the door and she knocks.)
Pinkie Pie: (sniffles) Who is it?
Twilight Sparkle: Pinkie, it's me, Twilight. Can I come in?
Pinkie Pie: (is silent for a moment and then sighs) Sure, come in, Twilight.
Twilight Sparkle: (opens the door and enters the room to see Pinkie Pie curled up on her bed with a lot of tissues.) Pinkie, I'm sorry for yelling at you earlier. I was wrong to do that, and while there are plenty of things in the world that do make sense, not everything has to make sense. Basically, even though your Pinkie sense doesn't make sense, I'm going to accept that it's real and go along with it.
Pinkie Pie: (perks up) Really?
Twilight Sparkle: (nods) Yup, I'm just going to accept your unusual ability, Pinkie Pie.
Pinkie Pie: (hops off the bed and hugs Twilight Sparkle tightly) Yay! Thank you, Twilight! Oh! (She stops and grins) Ooh, that was the doozy!
Twilight Sparkle: Huh?
Pinkie Pie: Twilight, by accepting that my Pinkie sense is real, that was the the doozy I was sensing.
Twilight Sparkle: (tries to think of a logical explanation and then shakes her head with a laugh) Yeah, that's quite a doozy isn't it?
Pinkie Pie: (nods) Yup!
A/N: I hope you liked what I added to this, online brother. Hugs for days! Bye for now! R&R everyone!
