Chapter 3: Sugar Rush
Authors Note: Yeah, it's been a long few days for me. I wrote 4 rough chapters on my iPhone, only for it to randomly break. HHHHHHNG- they are all gone now. I went to the doctor's for my social anxiety. I had a tantrum because I couldn't get my hands on a Pinkie Pie build a bear. I'm going to go job hunting in a couple of weeks when I turn 16. On top of that I need to go back to school shopping. -.- I think I'm a bit scarred for life. I was curious so I read Sweet Apple Massacre; I don't think I'll be able to look at the CMC and Big Mac the same ever again. Dear lord, I feel like I now will have a filly horn up my ass for the rest of my natural born life. Poor Scoots, every bad thing that happened to her made me a bit disturbed.(She's my favorite!) At least Cupcakes made sense, Pinkie is a tad crazy, but sweet baby Jesus that was a little too creepy. I fear for the insanity of the author. –NinjaDino4
Side Note: I haven't mentioned skin colors in my story. Emma sort of represents me so she's white. Jaden is white because he's pretty much my real life best friend. We're both white, deal with it. As for the Mane six, I'll leave that up to you guys. Imagine them any way you like. I probably won't describe different outfits they're wearing cause I feel like making up different things is way too much for me and relatively pointless. BWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAPED.

"Ugh…" Rainbow groaned rubbing her head. She slowly opened her eyes. The room was pitch black, looking at her surroundings she noticed each of her friends were fast asleep.
She carefully moved off of the couch making sure she didn't wake up anyone. Slipping through the door Rainbow Dash noticed that the rest of the house was no different. Using her hand as a guide she stumbled down the hall somehow ending up in the living room.
"How in the hay am I supposed to see?" She fumbled around the dark trying to locate any sort of light switch. With no way to see she tripped over the rocking chair making her slam into the end table causing the lamp to tumble over and break. A loud crash echoed through the house.
"Uh oh." She gasped as she froze in place.
Suddenly the living room lights flipped on. Rainbow Dash's heart stopped, turning around with an 'oops' smile to which she flashed everyone.
"Darling, some of us are trying to get our beauty sleep. I would appreciate it if you didn't cause such a ruckus while I'm getting some well-deserved rest." Rarity spat out as she gave Rainbow a death glare.
"Actually, it's more like a fra-" Pinkie Pie started to argue with Rarity, but Applejack quickly covered the hyper girl's mouth. The look on AJ's face reeked of annoyance.
"What are you even doing? Why would you break Emma's lamp?" Twilight asked rubbing her eyes.
"It was an accident. I didn't mean to, besides I've been sleeping for like ever. I'm not tired anymore." Rainbow argued.
"Yeah, well we've been asleep for like…" Emma trailed off pulling out her phone. "Only two hours. Try to be a little more quiet, Rainbow."
"Ah'm goin' back to bed. Ah don't got time for this." Applejack stated before walking back to her room.
"Applejack and I may have our differences, but I completely agree." Rarity followed the cow girl back to the room.
"I think those two have the right idea. Come on girls, let's go." Twilight stated leaving with a hyper active Pinkie and tired Fluttershy.
"Guess I have to clean this up." Emma sighed cleaning up the broken glass.
"Sorry about that. It was a little too dark." Rainbow chuckled nervously.
"Just please be more careful. I don't feel like cleaning up your mess every day at one in the morning." Emma sluggishly walked past Dash heading back to bed.
"Hmm…guess I have to do quiet things…" Rainbow pondered. Suddenly a light bulb went off in her head.
She tip toed to the fridge and opened it. Scanning over every food and drink she spotted multiple black and green cans. She grabbed one and read the name.
"Monster?" Rainbow wore a confused look which turned to a happy smile in a matter of seconds. "Wonder what it does."
She put her fingers on the tab and managed to pop open the can. Putting her lips up to the rim she took a tiny sip. Her eyes grew wide in delight at the taste. In a few seconds she gulped down the whole can, but it wasn't enough for her. One by one she guzzled down every Monster in the fridge.
"Dear Princess Celestia, I, Rainbow Dash, have found the meaning of life. This one can holds the secret to happiness. Besides being me of course." Rainbow held the one of the Monsters in her hand with pride. The energy buzzing inside began to seep through. She felt like jumping all over the entire house.

Emma began to stir from her sleep. Stretching her arms she let out a yawn and opened her eyes. She immediately hopped out of bed and walked out of her bedroom.
"What in the world?!" She gasped in shock. The hallways were covered in whipped cream and sprinkles. Most of the cream was running down the walls creating a big mess on the carpet.
"Wha?" Twilight yawned opening the door. "Oh my goodness!" She jumped back, appalled by the condition surrounding her.
Rarity growled in the background muttering things about beauty sleep under her breath. "What could be so important that you woke me- GAH!" She was taken aback by the condition of the hall. Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Applejack sleepily walked through the door.
"What in tarnation?! What's this all about?" Applejack asked.
"…Oh my…what happened?" Fluttershy's jaw dropped at the mere sight.
"Whoa! When did this all happen!? Why wasn't I invited?!" Pinkie Pie yelled hopping closer to the wall inspecting the substance.
"Pew! Pew! Pew! Pew!" Rainbow shouted from the living room.
"I have a feeling I know who did this." Emma mumbled in anger running past the five.
"Rainbow Dash?! What did you do?!" Emma screamed in horror staring at the condition of her living room, kitchen and backyard.
"Do you like it?! Oh! I know! Wanna play bandits with me!? It's kind of stupid to play it alone!" She yelled back only to confuse Emma for the moment. "I'm the bandit! You're the innocent human!" Rainbow jumped from behind the knocked over love seat and tackled Emma to the ground. Using the rope she found in the backyard earlier she hog tied Emma up and triumphantly gloated about it.
"I am the winner! Again! Yes! I'm bored, let's play something else!" Rainbow shouted running into the kitchen.
"What in Equestria is goin' on?" Applejack muttered running to Emma's side along with the other four.
"Just look at my house! Rainbow, completely destroyed everything!" Emma shouted in frustration. Glancing around the room everyone soon realized the mess. Couches were flipped over, food was thrown all over the walls, sprinkles and chocolate chips covered the floor, and toilet paper was used as streamers of some sort.
"New game! Dodge ball!" Rainbow screamed tossing an egg, hitting Rarity in the head.
"My hair!" She screamed then dramatically fainted falling onto the sprinkle and chip covered floor.
"Rainbow! Stop it." Twilight lectured, but Dash pelted her with multiple eggs causing her to growl.
"Try to get me! Try to get me!" Pinkie screeched in joy. Rainbow immediately tossed an egg at her only to completely miss due to Pinkie jumping out of the way. One egg after another seemed to fly past her and hit the wall on the other side of the room.
"…Maybe we should stop Rainbow and clean this mess…" Fluttershy suggested quietly, but nobody listened to her.
"Get me out of this thing!" Emma screamed.
"Oh. Right. Sorry bout that, sugarcube." Applejack quickly untied Emma freeing her from the rope.
"What am I going to do?! My house is a complete mess, Rainbow is off the wall, Rarity fainted and those two are having an egg war!" Emma shrieked pointing at the two hyper girls racing around the house in a fit of laughter.
"Panic." Fluttershy nervously replied.
"Ugh, could this day get any worse?" Emma sank onto the floor burying her face in her hands trying to take deep breathes to calm down.
Suddenly her phone vibrated in her pocket. She reached for it only to freeze at the name.
"Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Everyone keep calm. KEEP. CALM." Emma shouted before hitting talk.
"Hi, dad." She answered somewhat calm despite the situation happening at her home.
"Hi, Emma. I just wanted to check up on you. Sorry about the way I had to spring this trip on you. It was a last minute thing I got." Her father replied.
"Oh no, dad. It's fine. I mean I'm fine. Don't worry, I completely understand." She responded only to be covered with spray cheese. Pinkie and Rainbow busted out laughing rolling on sprinkles and chocolate chips.
"Um, who's laughing?" He asked curiously.
"Laughing? Laughing! It's just the TV, dad. Yeah, I'm watching uh Comedy Central." She nervously chuckled.
"Stop it girls!" Twilight yelled grabbing Pinkie's arm. She sheepishly smiled and stopped her crazy antics.
"Alright ya'll. Fun's over." Applejack attempted to jump onto Rainbow Dash, but she used her legs to catapult the cow girl into the air.
"Raaaainbooow!" She yelled before smashing into the upside rocking chair causing it to bust apart.
"What was that?!" Emma's dad asked with worry.
"Nothing. I swear. It's the TV. Just like I said. So how are you?" She asked silently motioning the others to capture Rainbow.
"Oh dear…wha-what happened?" Rarity asked waking up. She went to fix her curls unconsciously, but felt all the nasty items stuck in them. "My hair! It's even worse than before!" She fell backwards, fainting yet again.
"Emma, tell me what's going on. I can hear a bunch of different people yelling. Plus I heard something break." He demanded.
"Sorry, dad. It's getting to the good part. I gotta go. Bye!" She hung up on her father and immediately boiled over in anger. "Alright! Rainbow Dash, you calm the heck down and clean up this mess! RIGHT NOW!"
"Only if you catch me!" She sprinted out to the backyard and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Emma sighed meanwhile the other four had worried looks on their faces.
"Now what do we do? If we clean this mess up, Rainbow will just destroy it. Again." Twilight stated.
"I know, we have to think of some way to stop her from destroying everything." Applejack added.
"We could just always catch her…like she said…" Fluttershy suggested quietly.
"But what? I mean my dad was pretty suspicious of everything. I'm surprised he hasn't blown up my phone after I hung up on him." Emma replied.
"She just went outside…we could all go after her…" Fluttershy continued, but nobody payed any attention to her.
"I've got it! She said if we caught her she would clean this mess up. That's just what we'll do! Let's see…there's me, Applejack, Fluttershy, Emma, Rarity and Pinkie. So that's six of us. We could each split up in teams of three!" Twilight suggested.
"Great idea! You're so smart, Twilight!" Pinkie praised jumping up and down.
"But how are we gonna get Rarity to help? She'll keep fainting every time she wakes up." Emma asked looking at the unconscious fashionista.
"You clean your pool, right?" Applejack asked running a finger under her chin.
"Well yeah. That'd be kind of gross if I didn't." Emma replied, but still a little fuzzy on her idea.
AJ picked up Rarity and walked into the backyard. Each one followed her filled with anticipation.
"Now for a little wake up swim." Applejack tossed Rarity into the pool instantly throwing her back into consciousness.
"Applejack! What did you do that for?!" Rarity growled jumping out of the water practically steaming from her anger.
"We needed your help, Rarity. Please don't be mad…" Fluttershy responded.
"Help with what?" She questioned calming herself down.
"Capturing Rainbow Dash. She ran outside here a little while ago. Now we just need to split up and form two teams." Twilight explained.
"What about walkie talkies?! We could be super spies!" Pinkie asked happily.
"Walkie talkies? I think I have a couple in my shed. I'll be back." Emma replied walking away.
"Alright girls. Hmm…I think I've got this all figured out. Applejack and Rarity, you're with me. Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie, you're with Emma. Any objections? No? Good." Twilight stated.
"Found em!" Emma shouted heading back to the group. She tossed them on the grass in the middle of the group. "So did you get us split up?"
"Yep. You have Pinkie and Fluttershy. I've got Applejack and Rarity." Twilight responded grabbing one of the walkie talkies.
Emma was about to pick up the other, except Pinkie snatched it up. "Could I be in charge of the walkie talkie?!" She asked with a fake pout.
"I don't care. Just be serious. We need to get Rainbow." Emma caved in trying to focus on the task at hand.
"Exactly. I was thinking we'd check different areas of the house and-" Twilight started, but was cut off before she could finish her sentence.
"We should use secret code words for each other, Twilight! You could be…um…Princess Magic! And I could be Cupcakes." She stated seriously narrowing her eyes. Emma shuddered a bit at the code word, Cupcakes.
"Pinkie!" Twilight grew a bit annoyed, but took a deep breath as she calmed her nerves. "Fine. Everyone, let's do this.
Applejack, Twilight and Rarity began to wander around the backyard searching for any sign of Rainbow Dash. Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie and Emma headed into the house to look.
"Hmm…where should we start?" Emma pondered stepping over multiple smashed eggs.
"She could be anywhere by now." Fluttershy sighed feeling discouraged.
"Maybe we should think like me." Pinkie suggested with a smile.
"What do you mean?" Fluttershy asked curiously.
"Well, Dashie is super hyper. She's like me after I eat way too much sugar, but I mean I always eat way too much sugar so I guess it's more like me on an everyday basis. The point is we should start thinking like me to find Rainbow!" Pinkie explained carefully inspecting each inch of the kitchen.
"And where would you be?" Emma questioned looking over her ruined living room with a sad glance.
"Anywhere fun, of course! So where are the funnest places you have in this house?" She asked mysteriously pulling out a magnifying glass from nowhere.
"Hmm…there's this area where you can actually climb inside the walls. My dad had it installed a little after we moved in. I always liked to use the tunnels to get around. It's pretty fun." Emma replied.
"Perfect! Come on girls. We've got a wall to go into!" Pinkie shouted.
Emma ran down the hall followed by Pinkie while Fluttershy hesitantly tailed behind them.
"Now where ever could she be?" Rarity asked following the other two.
"I don't know. Maybe we need to think like Rainbow. She's always looking for something cool to do." Twilight suggested.
"And working on her stunts. Just cause she's actin like Pinkie don't mean she won't be doing somethin' dare devily." Applejack added.
"You're absolutely right! Now we just need to fi-" Twilight was cut off yet again.
"You girls are such slow pokes. Come on, aren't you ever gonna find me?" Rainbow stated hiding behind many branches and leaves.
"Rainbow Dash, quit hiding and allow us the chance to locate you." Rarity replied as each one stumbled around the backyard trying to spot where the voice came from.
"You know, you're right, Rarity. I guess I should allow you the chance to catch me." Rainbow carefully walked across a branch on the tree.
"There she is!" Twilight shouted.
"Ah'll get her." Applejack began to twirl the rope around her head, the one she removed from Emma earlier.
The rope headed towards Rainbow, but she made a quick long jump off of the branch, thus causing AJ to rope the tree. Dash grabbed the edge of the house and pulled herself up.
"Gonna have to be quicker to catch me!" She sprinted across the roof utilizing her new found energy surge. She kicked off the screen of one of the open windows and jumped through.
"Twilight. Alert the others!" Rarity said in a hurry.
"Right." Twilight held down the button on her walkie talkie. "Hello? Pinkie? You there?"
"Um Pinkie isn't here. I think you're FORGETTING something, Princess Magic. Over."
"Ugh. We don't have time for this. She just-" Twilight started, but was cut off for the third time.
"Princess Magic, we have to address each other by the codes just like we talked about. Also, when you're done talking you have to say 'over'. Over"
"Cupcakes! Rainbow Dash just jumped onto the roof and went into the house! Get her! OVER!" She screamed followed by a loud bang from the other walkie talkie.
"We should stay here, but hide. Just in case RD decides to head outside, we could ambush her." Applejack said before jumping behind a nearby shrub. Twilight jumped in with no question.
"Do I have to? My hair could get messy or I could touch dirt." Rarity complained shivering at the thought.
"Course, Miss Prissy Pants." AJ replied roping her friend and dragging her into the bush.
"You are so going to pay for that." Rarity narrowed her eyes wearing a frown.
"Owwie. That hurt." Pinkie complained rubbing her head.
"You heard Twilight. Rainbow's in the house. We could do a sneak attack on her." Emma whispered now trying to be more careful in the volume of her voice.
"Actually…I'm pretty sure Rainbow already knows where we are considering the loud banging noise Pinkie Pie just made…" Fluttershy stated as if it were obvious.
"Ugh. You're right. Either way we need to keep an eye out for her. She could be anywhere." Emma replied quietly opening one of the many doors connected to the walls.
"Bummer, you three are looking in the wrong places. I'm right above your noses." Rainbow Dash exclaimed causing the three to look up.
"Can't escape us, Dashie!" Pinkie yelled quickly climbing up the ladder followed by the other two.
Rainbow crawled as fast as she could and jumped out of the wall ending up in Emma's bedroom. She hopped onto the bed seemingly trapped in a corner as the three walked closer and closer to her.
"Nowhere to go now. It's all over, Rainbow Dash." Emma fiercely stated.
"I don't think so." Rainbow replied with a devious smile. She jumped onto the TV stand then hopped onto the dresser in a matter of seconds. Not a moment later she leaped towards the door and grabbed the frame thus swinging out of the room in a flash.
"Oh great! Now she's some kind of monkey human hybrid!" Emma yelled in frustration racing after Dash with Pinkie and Fluttershy not too far behind.
Rainbow flipped over the couch and landed on her feet. Meanwhile, the other three hopped over the couch continuing their chase through the backdoor. Dash started to slow down leaving them just the chance to catch up.
"Applejack! Now!" Twilight yelled. Suddenly a rope flew out of the bush and made its way around Dash's body. Pulling on the rope she fell onto the grass which cushioned her fall.
Emma ran to the side of the hyper brash acrobatic rainbow haired girl.
"Haha! We caught you. Now you have to…clean?" She leaned closer only to see her friend's eyes shut and quiet snores escaping her mouth. "You have got to be kidding me. She's asleep!"
"Are you joking? We could've saved ourselves all this trouble and waited for her silly crash." Rarity complained letting her eyes roll.
"Well now, why didn't ya'll ever think about that?" Applejack asked walking up to Rainbow.
"I suppose that option never came across my mind." Twilight sheepishly smiled.
"We could totally clean this place up while Dashie takes a little snooze. She'll be out of the way and we could get everything done! Right, Princess Magic?" Pinkie leaned next to Twilight giving her a friendly nudge.
"Of course, Cupcakes. Might as well." Twilight agreed letting a smirk reach her face.
"Yaaaaaaaaay." Fluttershy gave her trademark adorable cheer.
"Let's get to work!" Each one shouted in unison. When they turned around their smiles turned to frowns. Just the sight of the mess caused their moods to spiral down.
And with that nopony can ever drink energy drinks ever again.
