Chapter 28: The Water Park
It is an extreme heat at the Boardtrot as Sunny, Sunset, and Twilight were at the smoothie stand, while the two Alicorns are sitting on their chairs, drinking smoothies while Sunny was laying on the counter as the three ponies sweat and groan from the heat.
"Is it just me, or is that smoothie cup melting?" Sunny asked her two friends as they saw a smoothie cup melting from the heat.
"No, Sunny. It's not you." Sunset said while sipping more smoothie as Comet came by with his notes.
"Huh. That's the third one this morning." Comet commented as he gestured to the two other smoothie cups that had already melted.
"Sweet Celestia, it's the hottest day of the year in Equestria." Twilight groaned as she sip her smoothie some more before she poured some on her head to cool herself off.
"Way hotter than the last heatwave, you mean." Sunset corrected as she sipped more smoothies.
"Yeah, and way worse." Twilight nodded in agreement as she sighs. "I missed the days when Pegasi and Alicorn controlled the weather. We would've had at least a cloud to cool things off." She whined as she gave Sunny a bit, which Sunny gave her another smoothie cup.
"I agree, Twilight. I wish we would've been born at your time." Sunny sighed as she looked around. "Where's Izzy? It's not like her to miss out on morning smoothies."
"Haven't seen her since this morning." Sunset said with a shrug. "But knowing Izzy, something expected would be happening with her." She said before a shadow figure ran past behind them, which caught their attention with a startled gasp.
"Wait a minute, what now?" Comet asked in surprise as Izzy then came out from a stand, staying in the shades.
"Almost there, Izzy." Izzy said to herself with a cheerful and determined look. "That Dreamy Greeny smoothie isn't gonna drink itself." She then put on a sun hat and wore sunglasses as she took out an umbrella before she then put on some sunblock on her cheeks. "Let's do this! " She declared before she gave a scream and made grunting sounds as she moved skillfully to any shade she could find.
"Hmmm." Sunny hummed in surprise.
"Wow!" Comet said in awed.
"Interesting." Twilight said in surprise.
"Impressive." Sunset added.
"Ooh! Fancy!" Sunny commented.
"Ha-ha! Nice one!" Comet said in amazement.
Sunny then gasped when she saw Izzy about to hit a lampost. "Look out!" She called out.
"Oof!" Izzy grunted when she hit the lamppost face first, which made the four ponies cringed from that.
"That's gonna leave a mark." Sunset said with a cringing before suddenly, Izzy appeared in front of them.
"Izzy!" Sunny said in surprise while the others gave startling yelps.
"Hi, ponies!" Izzy said cheerfully as she put her umbrella away and her sunglasses." Whew! Can you believe this heat?" She asked before she saw the melted smoothie cup. "Oh, something looks different here. Now, how am I gonna...? Oh, there we go!" She said as she used a straw and slurped up the smoothie contents on the counter as the four ponies gave uncertain looks as Izzy gave a sigh. "Still delicious!" She said cheerfully.
"Even after a head bump, Izzy is still Izzy." Sunset commented with a small giggle.
"Like Pinkie Pie." Twilight added as the two Alicorns giggled.
"Huh. Looks like everypony is avoiding the heat today, Izzy." Sunny commented as they looked at the entrance and saw how empty it was as a tumbleweed tumbled by. "It's just too hot to Boardtrot!" She joked as she gave a laugh and a snort. "You see what I did there?" She asked Comet, Sunset, and Twilight as they gave weirded out looks at her jokes.
"Sunny's still not getting her jokes right, huh?" Twilight whispered with a brow to Sunset.
"Yeah." Sunset said with a cringed look, since Sunny is not one for jokes.
Izzy, however, gave a laugh. "'Too hot to Boardtrot!' Sunny, you're funny!" She laughed before she realized what she said. "Oh! Hey, I did it, too!"
Then, all five ponies gave amusing laughs at the joke, finding it very funny indeed.
A bit later, the five ponies are still at the smoothie stand as Sunny has a paper fan she is using to fan herself while Comet has a battery power mini fan as they try to stay cool. "Whew. Maybe we need a giant sunshade over the Boardtrot. Then ponies could still have fun here, even when it's hot outside." Sunny suggested.
"You need a mountain to cover up the sun from the Boardtrot, Sunny." Sunset said while dumping some smoothie on her head as well. "And last I checked, it's not possible. Maybe we just need some snow."
"We can't control the weather to even get a drop of a snowflake." Twilight said to them while wiping some sweat off her with a napkin. "And the only place that still snows is close to the Crystal Brighthouse, but that's far up north."
"Yeah, and I doubt the ponies wanted to go that far in this heat." Sunny said in agreement.
Izzy laid low on the counter while slurping the spilled smoothie while using the straw before she had an idea. "Or... what if we had a giant playground totally full of water?!" She suggested with a smile as she rushed to the railings close to the ocean and the beach, losing her hat and sunglasses.
"What? Like a water park?" Sunny asked with a smile.
"That's actually a good idea." Twilight said with a smile.
"Been a while since I've been to one of those." Sunset said with a smile, having used to go to waterparks back in CHS.
"It could have rainbow water slides and a lazy river." Izzy started off as she pictured the water park as a magical protection appeared in the ocean while Izzy's Rainbow Magic form started to appear as she started glowing. "Oh! Oh! And those amazing things that shoot water like a cannon!" She continued while her friends noticed Izzy going into her Rainbow Form as they smiled at her as more projections of the water park started to appear. "Oh, and those buckets that they fill up really slow! And everyone's like, 'When's it gonna fall?! When's it gonna fall?!' And then it dumps water all over everypony!" She cheered with a laugh as she started floating around as the four ponies got out of the stand and walked up to Izzy with a smile as she flew around. "And then you're mad, but then you're like, 'This is hilarious actually!'" She exclaimed cheerfully.
"Uh-huh. Yeah." Comet nodded with a smile. "Um, anything else comes to mind?" He asked with a smirk.
"Yeah, Izzy! Come on, tell us more!" Sunny encourages.
"Don't leave us hanging." Sunset added with a smile.
"Tell us what else would be great for a water park." Twilight added with a smile.
"Well, we could also have a humongous wave pool!" Izzy continued with her hooves raised as more of her Rainbow Form appeared as more of the park's features started appearing. "And drilly slides with floaty tubes! Oh, can you imagine it? It'll be the most fun ever!" She cheered as her Cutie Mark glowed and shot up magic into the sky.
"Yeah! And then maybe I could stop all this sweating!" Comet said as his Cutie Mark glowed, which shot magic into the sky along with Izzy's.
"It will be a perfect place to cool off." Twilight said as her Cutie Mark glowed and shot up into the sky.
"And for us to have fun while getting wet." Sunset added with a smirk as her Cutie Mark glowed and shot up to the sky as well.
"And everybody could be together! Yeah!" Sunny finished with a smile as her Cutie Mark glowed as well as all five magic from their Cutie Marks glowed and combined into one single beam, which caused the seven shards from the Nova Charm on the stands to glow brightly as their combined magic then shot out a rainbow magic.
The Magic then created a magic rainbow, which shined over Izzy's projections and created a real life Water Park that Izzy has described. "Whoa!" The five ponies said in awed as the rainbow shined bright as they looked at the water park in amazement.
At the other stands, the rest of the Mane 8 saw this as Zipp and Pipp looked at the new water park in shock. "What was that?!" Zipp asked in shock as Pipp gasped.
"Is that what I think it is?!" Pipp asked as she smiled excitedly with sparkles in her eyes.
A bit later, Pipp was now on her phone as she livestreamed her announcement. "Um, attention, everyponies! Stop whatever you are doing right now and get to the Boardtrot as fast as you can! Trust me!" She said in excitement as she turned to the rest of the Mane 8 as she held up her phone for a selfie. "Everypony say, 'Water park!'" She called out.
"Water park!" The Mane 8 all cheered as Pipp took the picture and laughed as the Mane 8 then slid down the rainbow slide as they all laughed and jumped into the water as everypone that heard Pipp's announcement all came and started having fun at the water park while the Mane 8 swam in the water with any pony in the pool.
(Let Your Magic Run Wild)
(Mane 8)
Let your magic run wild (now is the time to light up the sky)
Let your magic run wild (now is the time)
Let your magic run wild...
The ponies are tossing beach balls and relaxing while sipping cold drinks as they have a fun time at the new water park. Zoom ran up to where the splash bucket is at as Thunder was hiding beside a lever while looking at Zoom with a smirk.
"Almost there... Little bit more…" Thunder whispered as he eyed Zoom as she got into position where the bucket would spill. "Gotcha!" He called as he pulled the lever, which caused the water from in the bucket to spill and soaked Zoom.
"Hey!" Zoom exclaimed in startled as she turned and saw Thunder coming out, giving a laugh from Zoom's soaked self as she gave a look, but then the bucket spilled over again, soaking Thunder as well as he gave an irritated look. But Zoom gave a laugh before Thunder joined in as well as the two Pegasus Guards laughed together.
(Mane 8)
Let your magic run wild (now is the time)
Comet was in a folate as he then slid down the rainbow slide. "Yeah!" He cheered as he gave a splash on the pool, creating a wave that sent the ponies flying.
(Sunny)
We are all different
(Hitch and Izzy)
But one and the same
"Come on, Sparkeroonie! Let's do it!" Hitch declared with a smile to Sparky as he pointed to one of the pool slides as Sparky was in a floatie as he laughed in agreement.
(Zipp)
Like starlight and moonshine
(Pipp)
We all have our place
Posey and Dahlia then jumped into two water slide tubes as they laughed as they slid down and went into the pool with a splash.
A bit later, the Mane 8 and some other ponies are on floaties while some aren't as they are relaxing by the lazy river. "Now this is what I'm talking about!" Zipp said as she stretched and gave a relaxing sigh.
Then, they heard two familiar laughters as Zipp, Pipp, and Misty turned and saw Alphabittle, on a floatie, and Queen Haven on a rubber ducky float boat with Cloudpuff beside her as the two adult ponies shared a laugh.
"Mom?!/Dad?!" Zipp, Pipp, and Misty all exclaimed in surprise at seeing their respective parents here as well.
"Hello, my darlings!" Haven said to her daughters with a wave. "Say hi to your sisters, Cloudpuff!" She said to Cloudpuff as Cloudpuff gave a joyful bark to them.
"Hey, ponies." Alphabittle started with a smirk before giving a fake gasps. Oh, no! Look out for the waves!" He called as he created some waves, which made Pipp, Zipp, and Misty yelped as the two royal sisters fell off their floaties and into the water.
"Alphie! I told you no splashing!" Haven said to her lover with an amusing smile. "I just had my hair done!" She added with a laugh.
"Ooh, waves incoming, your Majesty! Surf's up!" Alphabittle called with a smirk as he started swimming towards Haven and saved some splashes on her as Haven laughed as she tried to get away from him.
"Now, that's enough!" Haven laughed as the three mares watch while Pipp records this on her phone. "I mean it!" She laughed as she and Alphabittle swam off while Alphabittle kept sending splashes to Haven as she kept laughing.
"Aww, they're cute." Pipp said with a smile as Misty and Zipp smiled in agreement.
"Hey, everypony!" Izzy said as she, Sunset, Sunny, Hitch, and Sparky came to them while Izzy was on a floatie.
"Izzy, this water park was exactly what we needed." Misty said as she swam towards her unicorn friend with a smile.
"Even Flurry Heart came along and look at that, she and Twilight are still riding the water slide together." Sunset said with a giggle as she gestured to where Twilight and Flurry Heart are as the group looked up.
"Weee!" Flurry Heart cheered as she and Twilight rode down the rainbow slide with laughter as the two Alicorn family splashed into the pool, which they resurfaced with soaked manes as the two giggled. "This is so much fun! I feel like a filly again!" Flurry cheered with a smile.
"Sometimes you do act like one in some cases, my dear niece." Twilight joked before Flurry gave her a splash to the face, which made Twilight give a yelp as she spit some water out as she saw Flurry giggling. "Oh, it's on!" She called with a challenging smirk as she and Flurry then started splashing each other while their friends watched with smiles.
"Heheh, those two sure know how to get along." Zipp said with a smirk.
"Flurry Heart and Twilight have a strong family bond." Sunset said with a smirk. "And no matter how far apart, they're love for each other is strong."
"That is so true." Sunny said with a fond smile at the two Alicorns having fun. "And still, this water park is amazing.
"Yeah, your creativity is so wild, Izzy." Hitch added with a smile. "How do you do it?" He asked.
"Hmm. I don't know really." Izzy said with a shrug. "I can just see it all in my mind. I can imagine if this whole water park just disappeared." She started off as her Rainbow Form then began to appear, which made her friends worried.
"Uh, Izzy…" Sunset tried to say as she and the others realized what was about to happen.
"And then we were out here in the middle of the ocean and we had to swim all the way back to shore!" Izzy said cheerfully as her friends panicked while trying to talk her to stop as her Rainbow Magic glowed brightly before a big flash showered the entire park.
A bit later, everyone all made it back to shore on the beaches with tired expression after Izzy's Rainbow Magic made the entire water park to disappeared as the rest of the Mane 8 made it to shore as they were completely shocked and coughed a bit as they caught their breaths while Izzy gave a laugh as she laid on her back.
Next to them were Flurry Heart and Twilight as they took their breaths. "Well, that was unexpected." Flurry muttered as she rubbed her head.
"This never happens with the other water parks, that's for sure." Twilight said as the group stood up and looked at the spot where the Water Park was.
"Well... it was fun while it lasted." Sunny said with a optimistic smile and a weak chuckle.
"I feel like that might've been my fault." Izzy said with a guilt look, since she was the one who made the park blink out of existence.
"At least we know you have the power to create and erase." Sunset commented with a shrug and a sheepish chuckle. "I think we should help you train how to control your Rainbow Magic and be careful what you say in a creative way, Izzy."
"And train Zipp too." Twilight said as she pointed to Zipp. "Just to make sure she gets the hang of her Rainbow Magic as well. Because who knows what could happen if she makes a mistake using it like you did."
"Good point." Zipp said with a nod in understanding. "Well, since my element is bravery, I think brave and reckless?" She joked.
That joke made the Mane 8 share an amusing laugh as they all walked from the beach as Flurry Heart shook her head in amusement. "Just like my aunt's old friends." She said as she followed after the Mane 8, the Water Park may have vanished, but at least they had fun.
Behind them, Haven, who was completely soaked, walked off with a fuming look while Cloudpuff on her back barked as Alphabittle rushed up to Haven with a sheepish look. "U-Um... I think it looks nice like that!" Alphabittle tried to say as he shook the seaweed off his leg while trying to cheer Haven up after her mane got completely soaked.
End of Chapter 28.
