Chapter 38: Izzy in a Tizzy
At the Boardtrot, Izzy was at her stand, bringing out her tools and putting her goggles on as she gave a determined smirk as she cracked her neck, while she used her magic to move Senor Butterscotch to intimidate her. "Let's have a little magic." Senor B said.
"Or, a whole lot of magic!" Izzy cheerfully said as she gestured to the big crowd of ponies gathered around her 'Izzy Does It' stand as she got up to her counter. "Okay, Ponies! Who's first?" She asked with giggles while twirling her screwdriver around while she made Senor B look around.
"Stop shoving!" Posey yelled out to the crowd while she was in front of the line while holding an umbrella as she turned to Izzy with a natural look. "As you can see, I have been having trouble with a certain baby dragon." She said rhetorically while opening up her umbrella, which revealed to be a Sparky shaped hole in it as Izzy inspected it. "What do you think, Izzy? Could you fix it?"
"Fix it?! Ha!" Izzy called with a laugh as she took the umbrella. "I could do better than that, Poserino." She added with a smirk as she twirls around. "Let's do this!" She declared as she ripped out the cloth of the umbrella.

Grab a brush
Grab a bow
And make some stuff not seen before
My technique
Impeccable
My style
Untouchable
I've got it, I'm remarkable
So everypony
Here we go!
Izzy then did some improvements while putting some things on Posey's umbrella before she finished and added some propellers on the top of the umbrella with gems on it.
Zo-o-o-o-one
I'm in the cre-a-a-tivity zone
I'm in the zo-o-o-o-one
I'm in the cre-a-a-tivity zone
"Nonono!" Posey said while shaking her head. "I just wanted to stay dry, not…" She was cut off when Izzy tossed her the umbrella, which powered on as it took her off into the sky. "FLY!" She cried out as she flew away like crazy.
"Oh, you're welcome!" Izzy cheered with a wave to Posey. "Next!" She called to the crowd.
"My flower cart's broken." Dahlia sqaid with a frown while gesturing to her damage flower cart she brought.
"My headphones are crackly!" Peach Fizz cried out while holding her broken headphones.
"I broke my hat… again." Rufus said with a frown while gesturing to his broken hat he got on as it went through his head.
"Look at this dented armor!" Thunder cried out while holding his dented armor chestplate.
Izzy was surprised by this amount of damage to each item. "Wow." She said before she gave a nervous chuckle. "There's a lot of broken stuff.
"But you got the magic touch, Iz." Dahlia encourages with a smile.
"Yeah." Izzy said with a smile as she shook her head. "Yeah, thanks Dahlia. You're right." She then focused her magic and took each item from them and moved them around as she then started making the broken items better.
The possibilities are limitless
You can make anything that you want, just like this
You could always flip it, glue it down
That's how you know that you're creative now
Izzy put Peach Fizz's headphones back together while using a blowtorch that she somehow made a stack of Rufus' hat, which made him lose his balance as he fell down.
They say Izzy Izzy makes me dizzy
She's a talent, she's so busy
Grab a brush
Grab a bowl
Making stuff not seen before
Izzy then levitated some of her tools as they flew around, which made some of her magic created a breeze that made the crowd surprise as her magic glowed brighter around her as her Cutie Mark glowed brighter before she hammered down, which unleashed a blast of rainbow magic in all directions as the crowd gasped in awe at what they were seeing.
My technique
Impeccable
My style
Untouchable
I've got it, I'm remarkable
So everypony
Here we go!
Sunny gave Figgy a smoothie cup, which Fizzy enjoyed before Sunny was then startled in surprise when a rainbow magic hit Figgy's smoothie cup, which the elder Earth Pony noticed as her smoothie cup then somehow came to light as it growled, which made the two Earth Ponies yelp as Figgy dropped her cup before they noticed a bunch of other smoothie cups were rolling away in one direction while a trash bin followed as Sunny looked in shock.
Zo-o-o-o-one
I'm in the cre-a-a-tivity zone
I'm in the zo-o-o-o-one
I'm in the cre-a-a-tivity zone
Windy then walked forward to the glowing Izzy. "Quick question, Izzy, can you work your magic on this?" She asked while holding up a bike with a busted wheel.
"I need your help!" Dazzle called while holding out her microphone, which sparked up. "Oh no!" She then screamed when it sparked up electricity.
"Hey! I was next!" Rocky complained as he held up a toaster, which then all three compliances were hit by magic as they and a few others floated around Izzy as Senor B shook a bit as the magic holding him glitched a bit.
"Uh, heheh." Senor Butterscotch said nervously. "Maybe we need a little break, Izzy? There's quite alot of magic out there." He stated.
"I know! Isn't it great?! More is more, Senor B!" Izzy as she unknowingly went into her rainbow form and gave a laugh as she gave a laughter while magic is shot out all over Maretime Bay.
At the beach, two foals were building a sandcastle, but then a shadow loom over them as they look up, only to see Posey falling from the sky with a scream before she landed on the sandcastle. "Oof!" Posey muttered from the fall.
"Hey! Our sandcastle/Watch it!" the two foals exclaimed before one of Izzy's magic hit the umbrella copter, which flew out of Posey's hooves as the three ponies looked in shock at seeing more items being pulled.
Dahlia set up some flowers on her repair cart, but then a magic hit it as it glowed. "Whoa! Ah!" Dahlia yelped when her cart suddenly gained rocket boosters and took off, losing a couple of flowers as Dahlia quickly caught them. "Hey! My flowers!" She called out as her cart went by as ponies around looked in shock by what they were seeing as more items were being levitated to the same location.
"I order you to stop!" Thunder called to his armor that was being taken, but then he saw his armor and any other items that Izzy fixed or her magic suddenly hit as they formed together into some kinda beast like junk version of Izzy.
The Junk Beast growled as it got bigger and towered over Thunder, who gave a nervous smile. "Or…. not." He said with a nervous chuckle as he then ran off in fear with a scream.
Back at Izzy's stand, Izzy felt her magic diminishing as she got even more exhausted while her Cutie Mark also stopped shining as her Nova Charm shard gave off a bright flash of magic all over the area.
With the rest of the Mane 8, they yelped and screamed at the incoming items as they rushed up to Izzy as she kept working on her stand. "Izzy! We need to talk!" Sunset yelled out with wide eyes.
"Okay." Izzy nodded as she kept working.
"You know we love your creative magic, Izzy." Sunny said with a forced smile while sweating a bit as the rest of the Mane 8 chattered in agreement with nervous smiles. "But it's starting to feel a little bit-Ah!" She yelped as she ducked an incoming item. "Out of control."
"More like completely than little!" Twilight added while lifting a leg to avoid a box of gems.
Izzy then looked at her friends. "What do you mean?" She asked in confusion.
"Well…" The rest of the Mane 8 started awkwardly before looking back at seeing the Junk Beast, which Izzy followed before seeing the Junk Beast she accidentally created as she pushed up her goggles to get a better look before seeing it clearly as the Junk Beast roared loudly.
"Magic!" The Junk Beast growled in a monster version of Izzy's voice while giving a laughter as it kept stomping its hooves down while wrecking the town.
Izzy gasped in horror by what she saw. "What have I done?!" She asked herself in panic.
"You made a Godzilla creature version of you, that's what!" Sunset said as the rest of the Mane 8, especially Twilight, looked at her strangely. "What? Haven't anyone seen that movie? Or do we even have it made here?" She asked with a brow as her friends kept looking at her as Hitch slowly raised a hoof.
"I had a dream about it, but mostly critters or Sparky as giants." Hitch said with an awkward look.
Sunset gave a dull look. "Fine, I'm taking you all to see that movie after we deal with that Izzilla there." She said while gesturing to the Junk Beast trashing the town.
"Anyway." Twilight spoke up as she turned to Izzy. "Izzy, you used your rainbow magic again to create that thing!" She stated with wide eyes.
"I-I did?" Izzy asked in shock.
"Yes! You unconsciously used your rainbow magic again!" Sunset pointed out. "Didn't you see the magic that shot out of you when you use your creativity?! It was a dead giveaway!"
"I-I didn't realize I was!" Izzy cried as she got out of her stand and walked around. "My magic's gone totally wild! And not the good kind of wild: glitter and rainbows! It's the giant monster destroying the town kind of wild!" She anxiously cried out while leaning in Zipp's face, which made her flinch before Izzy leaned back and held her head. "What will I do?!"
"It's gonna be okay." Misty said softly while placing a hoof on Izzy. "Just, take a breath, Iz." She said with a smile before Izzy started taking breaths very quickly, which startled Misty from that.
"A little slower, perhaps, maybe?" Zipp suggested with an uncertain smile while Izzy then started breathing slowly.
"Heh, never seen Izzy this nervous before." Sunset said with a frown. "And she panics like you, Twilight." She added. "No offense."
"None taken. I'm even surprised by that. And I've seen many nervous breakdowns, myself included and a few others." Twilight commented, since she has seen many nervous breakdowns in her day.
Izzy calmed down before she and her friends looked up at the Junk Beast running rampant around town.. "I can't believe I did all this." She said in guilt.
"You were just trying to help everypony." Hitch said to her with an assuring smile.
"But maybe not everypony's problem needs a magical fix." Sunny added with a smile. "And definitely not all at once."
"Or even use their magic in everything since it's not the only solution for situations." Twilight added. "We find other ways."
"Sometimes you just need one simple creative solution at a time." Pipp continued with a smile to Izzy. "Which is like totally your specialty."
"Especially when you can come up with the greatest things in that creative head of yours." Sunset added with an encouraging smile.
Izzy gave a small smile before they heard a familiar scream. "Oh no! Ruffus?!" She cried out while looking up to see the Junk Beast tossing Ruffus up while grabbing his tall hat as Rufus screamed and fell over as his hat landed on the beast's head, making it as a horn as it gave a roar. "Ponies! What do I do?!"
"Unless we have another beast to fight that beast, it's not gonna go down easily." Sunset said with a concern frown.
Then Senor Butterscotch got between Hitch, Sparky, and Pipp and placed his hoof made arms around them. "It's like I always say, Iz, 'To solve big problems, you just gotta think big.' Haha!" He laughed while the three gave an awkward look.
"Should I be worried that Izzy is still using that homemade unicorn?" Twilight whispered to Sunset in an uneasy look.
"No, this is normal. That's Izzy being herself now." Sunset said with a dull look.
"Think big." Izzy repeated what Senor B said before she gave a smile. "That's it!" She then put on her goggles as she gave a determined smile. "One big creative solution, coming up!" She declared as she eyed Senor B as everypony turned to him.
"Why's she looking at me like that?" Senor Butterscotch asked them.
"Everypony, get back!" Pipp called out.
"Make room! Izzy's about to go big!" Sunset called as everypony back away as Izzy move around.
I sparkle like the stars, cuz I'm always super glittery." Izzy called as she glowed and waved her hooves as some glitter fell off while she walked up to Senor B as she then entered her Rainbow Form. "When my cutie mark comes to life, watch this brilliant CREATIVITY!" She declared as she flew around and shined bright, which blinded her friends as they covered their eyes.
Back in Maretime Bay, everypony is screaming in fear as the Junk Beast roared as it grabbed a lamp post. "Makey, makey, make." The Junk Beast said as it bent the lamp post around in the shape of a pony as it gave a laugh as the ponies ran as it stomped its hooves down. "Shakey, shaky, shake!" He called with a laugh as the town shook, but then a stomping sound was heard behind it as it turned its head around.
Behind the Junk Beast was a giant version of Senor Butterscotch, with some extra features while it stomped forward with Izzy on his head, still in her Rainbow Form. "You were right, Senor B! A little magic goes a long way!" Izzy called while Giant Senor B stood proudly. "And it's time we take mine back!" She declared seriously. "CHARGE!" She yelled as Giant Senor B charged forward.
The Junk Beast roared loudly and charged straight at Giant Senor B as the two clashed and avoided each other strikes as Senor B knocked the Junk Beast back as it skidded to the ground as the rest of the Mane 8 rushed up and watched the fight.
"Okay, this is insane, but if that thing has a laser beam coming out of its mouth and if there's a giant ape nearby, I'm out of here." Sunset said in shock.
"You watch way too many movies, Sunset." Sunny commented as they kept watching the fight.
The Junk Beast roared as it then charged at Izzy and Giant Senor B as the two formers charge as well as the two makeshift giants clashed with each other and then they collided, making a huge explosion that made the Mane 8 gasped and covered their eyes.
"Whoo!" Sparky cheered while waving his arms with sparkles in his eyes before he covered them from the explosion as well.
Once the dust clears, the Mane 8 uncovered their eyes to see Izzy kneeling down to the damage Senor Butterscotch as she made Senor B coughed while holding his head while Izzy, now back in her normal form, began to tear up. "Thank you, Izzy…" Senor B said weakly.
"Senor B… No! It wasn't supposed to be like this!" Izzy cried out as tears started falling from her eyes.
"You'll always be my best… friend." Senor Butterscotch added as his head tilted before falling to the as Izzy weeped on her creation while the rest of the Mane 8 felt sorry for her, while they may know that Senor Butterscotch isn't real, he is Izzy's creation and they know how much Izzy loved her creations, especially after seeing the Junk Beast come to life. "Just kidding!" He called as Izzy chuckled as she used her magic to fix Senor B as she laughed as the others gave surprise looks.
"Should've seen the looks on your faces!" Izzy said in amusement with a laugh.
"Hah, very funny, Izzy." Twilight said with a brow.
"Yeah, nice heartfelt trick there." Sunset added with a dull tone, should've seen that coming.
"Thanks!" Izzy obliviously said before turning to the damage the Junk Beast did to Maretime Bay. "I should fix all of this." She said.
"Izzy!" The rest of the Mane 8, especially Senor Butterscotch, all exclaimed.
"Haven't you learn by now?!" Sunset questioned while Izzy flinched by their outburst.
"But this time, carefully and one bit at a time." Izzy added with a sheepish smile as her friends sigh in relief.
"Phew, glad that's over. And now that's another thing we learn about Izzy's rainbow magic." Sunset commented while looking at the damage.
"Yeah, it was a bit weird that the creature was like Izzy thought." Sunny said with a weirded look. "Because from what we saw, it almost sounded like her and was reshaping some things like that lamp post." She added while gesturing to the pony shape lamp post the Junk Beast made.
"Mmm, maybe it's because since it was created by Izzy, it got a sense of her personality?" Twilight suggested.
"Or maybe it was like Izzy because some of her magic had her unique essence?" Misty suggested with a shrug.
"Or it was Izzy unknowling thinking about her creations, they become her, but without the goofy and silly unicorn side that is glittery." Sunset joked, which made Izzy giggle.
"Yeah, I get that. And talk about double trouble." Hitch added.
"Eh, it wouldn't be the first time." Twilight said with a shrug.
"Yeah, duplicates. Been there, done that. And one Izzy is already enough for Equestria to handle, am I right?" Sunset asked the group with a smirk.
"So true." The Mane 8 all said in unison before they all shared a laugh, while Maretime Bay is a bit damage, Izzy has learned to take it one bit at a time when creating new things and not to rely on magic so much after her Junk Beast rampage.
Unbeknownst to them, however, something was heard in the far reaches of Maretime Bay... A portal, which closed as soon as it opened. And then, stepping forward, a yellow helmet was revealed... made of metal, while a pair of red, robotic eyes watched the town from a distance…
End of Chapter 38.
