Season 3: Love Season
Episode 8 (38): You Talk Big Game (Rainbow Dash x Gordon)
After sometime, the Mane 7 and their boyfriends have had a successful first day on their dates. It was night, and Rainbow Dash was getting changed to go to bed when she noticed Gordon looking on something on the computer.
Rainbow Dash: (Yawns) Hate to break it to you Gordon, but I'm beat and the same for you. You needed it after that performance you just did.
Gordon: Normally I would, but I'm currently doing something that is, how should I put it, top secret work.
Rainbow Dash: What sort of top secret work?
Gordon: Nothing of the sort, this is just something to keep me busy.
Rainbow Dash: If you say so, once you're done with your "top secret work", meet me in my bedroom for bed, got it?
Gordon: Yeah, yeah, got it.
So Rainbow Dash walked off to her bedroom, leaving Gordon alone with Tank to watch him.
Gordon: Huh, I'm surprised you're her pet Tank, I mean I'm not judging you, if I have a pet, I would have myself a greyhound or a cheetah or something very fast. But back to the subject at hand, I'm sure Rainbow Dash will knock herself to bits when she sees this. I manage to get us tickets for this event. Plus, as an added surprise, some of my friends are taken part in this. (Yawns) Well, Rainbow Dash is right of all things, I do need my rest after that performance. Time to turn in for the day, and the same goes for you too Tank.
Then, around the night, the two were fast asleep. Around the next day, Rainbow went for a jog while Gordon is stuck in a slump.
Gordon: (Groans) Great, this should be one day to screw up, hopefully something does pop up that will excite me.
He got out of the house and decides to walk around town, hoping something exciting happens.
BG Music: Run to Break Free- Rainbow Dash (Gordon singing)
(As he walks down the sidewalk, time seems to slow as he walks)
Gordon:
I have so much more to say
But I live in slow motion
From moment to moment, hey
Holding back from day to day
The clock's ticking slowly
But time cannot hold me down
(Around here, he starts going for a jog)
I find myself in the rhythm of my feet
Feel it in my heartbeat
The time is now, and I won't hold back, hold back
(Then, he starts running)
Gonna break free, yeah, I'm runnin'
Watch me, yeah-yeah, I'm runnin'
I let go in this moment, all roads open
Gonna break free, yeah, I'm runnin'
I was born to break free
(He soon stops in a section of town, while everything is still in slow motion)
I choose my path, I choose my dreams
My spirit's a fighter
A passion igniter, yeah
(He turns to see multiple situations, the CMCs suddenly let go of Winona, a paint bucket is about to land on Arthur, Emily tripping and about to fall on the ground, Murdoch lifting a crate and one on top, one of the crates is falling straight towards Duncan. With his speed, he manages to get these situations avoided)
All I need's inside of me
A light shining brighter
A spark to a fire now
I find myself in the rhythm of my feet
Feel it in my heartbeat
The time is now, and I won't hold back, hold back
(Whoa-oh-oh-ohhhh-oh)
Gonna break free, yeah, I'm runnin' (yeah-yeah)
Watch me, yeah-yeah, I'm runnin' (I'm runnin', runnin', whoa)
I let go in this moment, all roads open
Gonna break free, yeah, I'm runnin'
I was born to break free
With the song ended, everyone cheered for Gordon that helped them. After his run, Gordon leaned up against one of the store's walls.
Gordon: Phew, now that can take a lot of energy out of you. But it's worth it, I just hope Rainbow Dash didn't see that.
Rainbow Dash: Well now, what do we have here?
Gordon jumped and turned to see Rainbow Dash leaning against a light post, smirking at him.
Gordon: Uh-uh, hello Ms. Dash, umm, what brings you around here?
Rainbow Dash: While I was in the middle of my run, I sorta noticed a streak come by my direction and I decided to follow it. And I saw you saving some of your friends as well as mine. Plus, the fact you used my song to do it.
Gordon: Well, I thought that it will give me at least some excitement.
Rainbow Dash: Well, gotta say it worked out for you, nice work.
Gordon: Thanks.
Rainbow Dash: You know what, let's make it a game. We each go around town and if there's anyone that needs help, we'll help them with our speed and we meet back in our house when there's no saving.
Gordon: Alright, I accept your challenge.
Rainbow Dash: Alright then, we'll start on three. One, two….
Rainbow Dash & Gordon: Three!
So the two sped off in separate directions to save some people they can find. In one corner of town, Rainbow Dash was looking around until she sees Trixie struggling to push her magic cart.
Trixie: (Grunts) Move, you stupid hunk of junk. The Great and Powerful Trixie commands you to move!
Then, there was trouble, she pushed the cart too hard and it starts rolling towards Wallflower and Juniper chatting with Ryan. Seeing this, she raced towards the cart and just before impact, Rainbow stopped the cart.
Trixie: Oh, thank you Rainbow Dash for saving my most treasured magic cart.
Wallflower Blush: And thank you for saving us Rainbow Dash, you really are a hero.
Rainbow Dash: Eh, don't mention it.
Ryan: You rock Rainbow Dash, almost like the time you helped us fight Timothy.
Juniper Montage: Which reminds me, Rainbow, what did happen around that fight, because most of us were knocked out by this strange red mist.
Rainbow Dash: That would be Timothy's knockout mist.
Trixie: Huh, that's more terrifying than my smoke bombs. But I'm glad that this demon that you faced is finally vanquished.
Rainbow Dash: Good thing too, I would hate to face him again. He's mega scary.
Ryan: Agreed, I still have chills whenever I hear his name.
Rainbow Dash: Well, at least he's gone and we can all chill on the downhill. Well, love to stay and chat but I have more people to save. Gotta dash!
Juniper Montage: See ya Rainbow Dash!
Meanwhile, Gordon was in the right corner seeing if anyone needs help. He then sees Kelly lifting a bunch of steel beams for a building, Molly and Murdoch were walking down the same sidewalk and Bertie delivering passengers on his bus. Then, there was trouble, the cables that were holding the beams are starting to snap and they were heading for Bertie.
Bertie: Look out!
Gordon knew he had to act fast, seeing an empty stretch of road with no cars at the moment, he sprang into action, kicking the beams with his foot which caused the beams to swing in the other direction, which leaves Bertie completely unscathed. But the force of the kick caused the cable to snap heading towards Molly and Murdoch. With his speed, he managed to grab both of them before the beams come crashing down onto the ground. Luckily, no one was hurt.
Gordon: Are you guys okay?
Bertie: Are you kidding? You just save my passengers from an intentional disaster. You're a hero Gordon.
Kelly: I'll say, you really saved the day Gordon.
Gordon: Oh, it's nothing.
Molly: You saved us Gordon, we can't thank you enough!
Murdoch: I have to agree with Molly, you saved us and we can't thank you for helping us. I'm sure your friends will be very proud that you saved us.
Gordon: Well, it all comes from the job. Now if you excuse me, I have somewhere else that needs saving. See ya!
So Gordon sped away, leaving his friends in awe, meanwhile, in another corner of town, Rainbow Dash was still searching for anyone else who needs saving. She sees Big Mac and Hank struggling to carry heavy crates, while ahead Stanley and Oliver were skateboarding towards them. Knowing this could end up in a crash, Rainbow sped towards them, she managed to stop the skaters before they crash into Big Mac and Hank.
Rainbow Dash: Whoa there buckaroos, might want to slow down before you crash right into them.
Oliver: Whoa, you're right, we are going a little too fast.
Big Macintosh: Eeyup.
Stanley: Hey, we said we're sorry.
Hank: He doesn't mean any harm partners; he's just too caught up in his work that he doesn't have time to apologize. So I'm doing it for him. But just be careful the next time, thanks for the save Rainbow Dash.
Rainbow Dash: No problem Hank, well, time for one last pit stop before returning back.
Oliver: See ya Rainbow! Now Stanley, let's try skateboarding in the Great Western Way.
Stanley: Oh brother.
Meanwhile, in another corner, Gordon is looking for any trouble. He soon found it when Snips and Snails were running down the sidewalk towards the crosswalk, on the way, Caitlin and Connor were speeding towards. Gordon soon raced to the rescue. Just as there was going to be a collision, Gordon grabbed the two just in time for the motorcycles to come to a complete stop.
Caitlin: Whoa, that was a close one, we almost ran over those kids.
Connor: You said it.
Gordon: Now what's the deal with you lunatics racing about on the road like that. You could've caused a serious accident!
Snails: Well, sorry sir, but we were….
Snips: We were in a bit of a hurry!
Connor: Wait a minute, we know you.
Gordon: What do you mean you know these two?
Caitlin: Well, sort of, these two were trying to chase after Luke when he's hanging with the CMCs and the Narrow Gauge.
Gordon: Well I never, you simpletons have no idea who you're messing with. I should teach you two a lesson you'll never forget.
Snips: Please! Please! We didn't mean to, honest! Please, put us down, and we won't bully anyone ever again.
Snails: Yeah, our bullying days are over!
Gordon: Promise!
Snips & Snails: We promise! We promise!
Gordon: Good, now get lost!
The two raced away, leaving Gordon, Connor and Caitlin behind.
Connor: We're sorry we didn't tell you this, because you, your friends along with the Mane 7 are on your camping trip.
Gordon: It's perfectly okay Connor. Say, weren't you two….
Caitlin: We're on our way to the race track, I believe they've already selected our cars.
Gordon: I see, well, me and Rainbow Dash just got a few things we have left to do and we'll be on our way. I see that Lightning Dust has taught you guys on how to drive racecars.
Connor: You got that right Gordon, we'll see you at the track.
So Caitlin and Connor raced away, leaving Gordon behind.
Gordon: Alrighty then, all it's left is back to Rainbow's house.
So he sped away, meanwhile, Rainbow Dash was in another corner of town searching for anyone who needs help. She soon spotted it when Skarloey and Rheneas are skidding down the sidewalk with heavy supplies and it's heading towards Vinyl Scratch. Wasting no time, she raced to the cart and tried to slow it down. Just as it was about to hit Vinyl, it slowly stopped.
Rainbow Dash: Phew, oh boy, that cart was much heavier than I ever anticipated.
Skarloey: Thank you so much Rainbow Dash for stopping the cart, otherwise we would've gone right into Vinyl.
Vinyl Scratch: I was so busy listening to music, I didn't see you coming down.
Rheneas: It's all good Vinyl, at least there's a lesson to learn. Watch your surroundings.
Rainbow Dash: Excellent advice Rheneas, by the way, what the hay are you doing with that cart full of supplies.
Skarloey: Me and my friends thought it will be helpful if we build doghouses for the residents that have houses around town. But we were so caught on making sure we get enough supplies for the houses, we didn't calibrate the weight for the incline.
Rheneas: Yeah, got a little bit carried away, my dear brother.
Rainbow Dash: Okay, well next time, try to go on flatter surfaces where your cart doesn't go rolling down the hill.
Skarloey: Duly noted.
Rainbow Dash: Well, I'll see you guys, time to head back to my house.
Vinyl Scratch: See ya Rainbow Dash.
So Rainbow Dash sped away to her house, just in time for Gordon to come in. Without knowing, the two of them collided into each other and fell to the ground.
Gordon: Ouch, what lunatic tries to collide into me at that speed.
Rainbow Dash: Lunatic?!
Gordon: Rainbow Dash?! Oh, I'm so sorry for calling you that.
Rainbow Dash: It's alright, next time, try to look where you're going.
Gordon: Ha, the same goes for you.
Rainbow Dash: Well, who have you been saving?
Gordon: Well, managed to save Bertie's passengers along with Molly and Murdoch from Kelly's crane truck cables that snapped which released metal beams that he was carrying. And have to save two nimrods named Snips and Snails from getting run over by Caitlin and Connor.
Rainbow Dash: Wait, back up, did you say Snips and Snails?
Gordon: Yeah?
Rainbow Dash: Dude, those two used to serve Sunset back then when she was evil, but those two eventually saw the light.
Gordon: Huh, did not know that.
Rainbow Dash: But hey, you did some good saving. Wait until you see my scores. I stopped Trixie's magic cart from going to run over, Juniper, Wallflower and Ryan. And I have to stop Stanley and Oliver from crashing into Big Mac and Hank while carrying heavy crates.
Gordon: Wow, you sure were busy.
Rainbow Dash: Tell me about it. But hey, we did good partner.
Gordon: Yeah, we did. After all that saving, I could use a rest and maybe a wash from all that running.
Rainbow Dash: Same here, race ya!
Gordon: Oh, you're on.
They soon reached the house and they stayed there for some time, showering to get the sweat off them, eating some lunch Rainbow has provided and watched a movie about an anthropomorphic hedgehog struggling in to fit in and tried to help save the world. Around the middle of the afternoon, Gordon got up to where the computer is, Rainbow immediately caught an eye on Gordon as he was typing away. Suspicious, she walked towards him.
Rainbow Dash: Okay, I know you said before that this is top-secret work, but I can't help myself into knowing what the heck you're doing?
Gordon: This top-secret work Rainbow Dash might actually surprise you. I managed to get us annual passes to a racetrack that as an added bonus, some of your buddies from your group has gotten some racecar training from Lightning and they're competing in a race for a fundraiser for the Everfree forest.
Rainbow Dash: (Gasps) WHAT?!
Gordon: Surprise!
Rainbow Dash: Oh-my-gosh! Oh-my-gosh! Oh-my-gosh! That is by far, one of the coolest things you've ever done for me. Thank you so much! (Kisses his cheek)
Gordon: Thanks. The race starts around 6:00, so we got some time before the race begins.
Rainbow Dash: Alright, I think I got just the outfit to go with for the track.
Gordon: What's that?
Rainbow Dash: I've got clothes that I've worn around the time me and my friends attending the Starswirl concert.
Gordon: Interesting, so when we get ready, we'll head to the racetrack.
Rainbow Dash: Alright! Thanks for doing this for me Gordon, you're the best. (Kisses his cheek)
After an hour, the two got ready, Rainbow Dash is wearing her outfit when she took part with her friends during Starswirl's concert. They soon exited the house, got on Rainbow's motorcycle and sped off to the racetrack. Once they got there, they rolled slowly to where the pits are. They got off and walked to where the pits are, they recognize some of their fast buddies in Rainbow Dash's group, as well as two others. The racecars they have in store are some Mustangs and Camaros. They went to the first three stops where it has Belle, Caitlin and Connor. The cars were decked out in their colors: Belle's mustang has red around the headlights, rear lights and grill, silver hubs, blue all around with black for the roof and the number is on the rear wheel hub. Caitlin's Camaro is overall fuchsia with light grey and blue lights and grill and golden hubs around the wheels. Connor's Camaro is overall teal with aquamarine and yellow lights and grill and gold hubs around the wheels.
Rainbow Dash: Those passes the two of us is letting us see the racers before the race even begins.
Gordon: You got that right.
Rainbow Dash: This is so awesome!
Belle: I know right; I mean who has the honor of doing this to raise money for the fundraiser.
Gordon: Evening Belle, I see you signed up for the race.
Belle: I did, I couldn't pass up the opportunity. The same goes for Caitlin and Connor.
Rainbow Dash: What?! They're part of the race too!
Caitlin: That's right Rainbow Dash. And just like Belle, we're also excited.
Gordon: Well then, good luck to the three of you. Shall we move to the other group.
Rainbow Dash: Yes, let's get going. See ya later!
The two moved to another group, where it had two mustangs and two Camaros. Those stops are home to Lightning Dust, Flynn, Flash Sentry and Freddie. Flynn's mustang was red with colors like a fire truck, Flash's Camaro is yellow with a blue hood and roof. Freddie's Camaro was silver with black trim going around some parts. Lightning's mustang was teal with gold around the hubs, hood and roof.
Rainbow Dash: Lightning and Flash? I didn't know you're participating in this race?
Flash Sentry: Yeah, surprised me too, but Lightning offered me this opportunity to help raise money for Everfree. And I signed up.
Freddie: And I'm also down to participating in this race, even though I may be an old geezer, but I'm still kicking.
Lightning Dust: Well, I'm glad you agree with coming to this special occasion Freddie, and the same to you too Gordon and Rainbow. Be sure to cheer us on the track.
Rainbow Dash: Oh, you can bet on that!
The two of them walked to their respective seats with snacks in hand.
Rainbow Dash: Oh man, this is so awesome! Thank you for doing this for me Gordon, you're the best! (Kisses his cheek)
Gordon: I know I am Rainbow Dash, and yes, this is so awesome. Look, they're pulling into the track.
Suddenly, they heard a buzzing sound.
Rainbow Dash: What the hay is that sound?
Gordon: I know that sound from the back of my buffer, it's Harold, probably documenting the race from his helicopter.
And he was right, Harold was documenting the entire race from a strapped on camera underneath his helicopter. The race is about to begin; the racecars are revving their engines in anticipation for the race to begin. When the green flag waved down, the cars revved to life. Everyone was cheering as the racers zoom by, especially Rainbow Dash and Gordon. Caitlin and Connor were up in front followed by Lightning, Belle, Flash, Flynn and Freddie. Around the final lap, Lightning and Flash were hot on Connor and Caitlin's trail. Straight to the finish line, Caitlin and Connor managed to cross the finish line. Everyone cheered for the two of them. When the race is over, the two walked over to congratulate the two.
Gordon: Good job you two, you were amazing.
Caitlin: Thanks Gordon, this is one moment we should cherish for a life time.
Connor: You got that right.
Rainbow Dash: I also can't get enough of this guy over here for doing this for me. You really do have some loyalty along with dignity in you Gordon.
Gordon: You're right about that one Rainbow Dash.
Everyone stayed behind to celebrate their victory. After that, Rainbow got a text from her phone.
Gordon: What's up Rainbow Dash?
Rainbow Dash: Rarity texted me and said we should meet up at the park for a meeting regarding to our big group date.
Gordon: Well then, we can't be late for that. Let's get going.
They said goodbye to their friends and raced off to Rainbow's motorcycle, as they sped off to the park. To be continued….
