Griffon the brush off
The Sword of Harmony
Your POV:
"Ok.... It's time to use.... Aqua Jet!" I said as I stared at the target. "All. I have to do is figure out on how to surround myself with a body of water and then..... how do I even move?" I asked myself in confusion. "You can do it!" I heard Pinkie yell out. This surprised me because I didn't know she was next to me.
"Aaahhh!!" I yelled as I jumped back. "Pinkie! Where did you come from!?" I asked while I was trying to catch my breathe. "Well my mom and dad met one day and after a few dates they got married and then one day they decided to do-" "Ah-Ah-Ahh!! I don't want to hear the rest of this!" I said as I was covering my ears.
"Hehehe... sorry." She said. "It's fine.... So what brings you here?" I asked her. "I was wondering if you knew where Rainbow was?" She asked me. "Hmmm.... Have you checked the clouds?" I suggested. "I haven't! Thank you and good luck!" She said as she zoomed off.
"I wonder why she's looking for Rainbow? Eh! Doesn't matter, I still need to figure out on how to do Aqua Jet." I said as I got into a battle stance. "Alright.... Aqua Jet practice number 1." I said as I concentrated on forming a body of water.

"Aqua Jet practice number..... 67 I think?" I said to myself as I formed a body of water over me and I felt myself launched into the air and I made sure to steer myself towards the target and I hit the edge of the target. I touched the ground and wobbled a bit but I managed to get my footing on the ground. I then turn to see the dent on the target.
"Alright! I managed to hit the target!" I cheered in excitement. I "danced" in celebration on my accomplishment.... I wouldn't exactly say I was dancing which was more as me moving my legs in different directions. I then turn to see the target was gone. "What?" I said in confusion as I looked around for it and when I turned around I found it and I saw that the dent was gone.
"What happened to the dent?" I asked myself as I then notice a table that had a basket of muffins on it. "Pfft! Puh-lease...! I saw this trick on a episode of Icarly, I know that it's just gonna explode confetti when I pick up a muffin. I'm not stupid to fall for this trick!" I yelled out as I walked and went to the target.
I then punched the target but then confetti exploded from the target. "Hahahahahaha!!!" I heard laughter from the bushes which I saw that it was Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie. "Very funny girls.... I didn't expect that.... Wait? Are the muffins filled with confetti?" I asked them as the shook their heads no. "Oh good because I was kinda wanting-" I was interrupted from my thought as I went to get a muffin and the basket exploded as I saw Pinkie and Rainbow running away in laughter.
"...... Can't believe I felt for that...."
The next day
I was in the library with Twilight and she was holding a book. "What up with the book?" I asked her. "This is my book on Pokémon! With all the info that you gave me on you, the two Pokémon we had encountered along with some things on their pre-evolutions, and evolutions! I have made myself and hopefully everypony a guide to Pokémon!" She said with a smile. "That sounds cool, does it have a name?" I asked her.
"Not yet, I still can't think of a good name for it." She said "Well, how about you call it a Pokédex?" I suggested to her which she gains a big smile. "That's a fantastic idea! It combines the word Pokémon and index. That is so good! I can't wait for this to be finished!" She said as she hugged her book.
"So... what do you want to know?" I asked her. "Well, you said that Pokémon has different types that are stronger to one type and weaker to another type. I want to know how many types there are?" She asks as she opens the book to a blank page and pulls out a ink and pen. "Well you probably gonna have to sit down because it'll be a lot of info." I told her as she sits down and places the book on a table. I then walked next to her and I sit down.
"Firstly, there are 18 different types: Normal, fire, water, grass, electric, ice, fighting, poison, ground, flying, psychic, bug, rock, ghost, dragon, dark, steel, and finally Fairy." I told her. "Oh boy, I can only imagine on how you could possibly remember on all their strengths and weaknesses." She said as she wrote it all done.
We then heard the door open and we say Pinkie walking in with a frustrated look on her face. "What's up?" I asked her as she explained to me and Twilight about a friend of Rainbow's from her school came to visit and that she's been mean to her. "So Pinkie Pie, are you sure that this friend of Rainbow Dash is really so mean?" Twilight asked her.
"Um, yeah. She keeps stealing Rainbow Dash away, she pops my balloons, and she told me to buzz off. I've never met a griffon this mean. Well, actually, I've never met a griffon at all, but I bet if I had, she wouldn't have been as mean and grumpy as Gilda." Pinkie explained to us. "Well.... I don't really know this Gilda, but it does sound a little mean." I said. "Or maybe your just jealous?" Twilight added.
"Jealous?" Me and Pinkie said at the same time. "Green with envy. Well, in your case, pink with envy." Spike said as he came downstairs. "To be honest, I totally forgot you were even here." I said "As I was saying, i think your just jealous pinkie, I think seeing Rainbow spending more time with Gilda then with you has made you jealous." Twilight told her. "What!? B... bu... she... I... Ugh!!" She screamed in frustration as she leaves.
"I don't know Twilight? Are you sure Pinkie is jealous?" I asked her. "Well, it's what I think." She said as I had a unsure look. "I think I'm gonna check this Gilda out." I told her. "But you haven't told me all the strengths and weaknesses?" She told me. "I'll fill it out when I come back." I told her as I left the library.
I found Pinkie sitting on a table with a umbrella which I went to the seat across from her and I sat down. "Do you think I'm a big jealous judgmental jealous-jealousy-pants?" She asked me. "What? I don't think so.... I mean, you have spent most of your time with them.... I'm not sure to be honest." I told her as she sighed as we saw Rainbow and a Griffon who I believe is Gilda fly by us and they landed on the ground.
We then saw Rainbow fly off to her job as we watched Gilda head to a food stand where we then see Granny Smith at the food stand. She tries to take a sniff on the fruit but Gilda placed her tail to granny's face which scares her and she yells. "Aaah! A rattler, a rattler! Run for the hills! Everybody forsake yourselves!" She runs slowly away from "rattler" which I had a angry look.
"Aw, poor Granny Smith, she didn't know it was a joke! How mean! No, no, I can't misjudge her. It was kind of a funny prank, I guess." "What? That was mean." I said as we then saw Gilda took a fruit without buying and ate it. "She's also a thief." I said "She might pay for it?" Pinkie said as I was about to answer but I then saw Fluttershy herding ducks and I saw she was fixing to bump into Gilda.
"Uh oh..." I said in worry a fluttershy bumped into Gilda. "I'm walkin' here." "Oh, um, I'm sorry. I-I-I was just trying to..." "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Why don't you just watch where you're going, doofus?" "B-b-b-but I... I..." before Fluttershy could say anything else Gilda had just roared at her.... "That's it.... She's gonna disappear." I said as Fluttershy was running away in tears and I was about to show Gilda mr Hoovsie and his wife Destroyer. But Pinkie then stops me.
"Don't, violence isn't going to solve things." She said. "Well what am I supposed to do?" I asked. "Oh! I have an idea.... A Pinkie Pie style idea." She said with a grin. "Well, whatever this plan is, I think I should go check on Fluttershy." I told her as she nods and I ran off to find Fluttershy
Time skip
I had found Fluttershy and i spent a hour hugging her and cheering her from what Gilda had done. After a while we got a card from Pinkie which was a invite to a party for Gilda which I can only assume is her idea of dealing with Gilda.... I still think I should've introduced her to mr. Hoovise and his wife Destroyer.
We were then at sugarcube corner where the party was at. "I can't believe Pinkie is throwing a party for her." Fluttershy said "Well, Pinkie said she had a idea and it's best if we see what she is planning." I told her as Twilight came up to us. "You've met Gilda, right? what is she like?" She asked us. "Oh, well explain later." I told her as Fluttershy nods in agreement which confused Twilight.
We then heard the door open to reveal Rainbow and Gilda. "Gilda! I'm so honored to throw you one of my signature Pinkie Pie parties, and I really, truly, sincerely, hope you feel welcome here amongst all us pony folk." Pinkie said as she hold up her hoof for a shake hello and I saw Gilda grabbed her hoof Gilda was blasted by a electric buzzer.
Both Pinkie and Rainbow and I was laughing as Rainbow then says. "Oh Pinkie Pie, the old hoof-shake buzzer. You are a scream." "Yeah" Gilda said as she chuckled nervously and adds. "uh, good one, Pinkie Pie." She said as Rainbow came to us. "Everyone, I'd like you all to meet Gilda, a long-time, dear friend of Rainbow Dash. Let's honor her and welcome her to Ponyville."
Pinkie said as the crowd cheered except for me and Fluttershy. I then saw Gilda eat a vanilla lemon drop which was super hot and Gilda was running around looking for something to cool her mouth. She then finds a glass of punch and when she tries to drink it, it turned out to be a dribble glass. She then zoom to the punch bowl and drank it.
"Hehe, that was a good one." I said as Rainbow told Gilda that there was presents and when Gilda opened one a bunch of toy snakes popped out surprising her and we were all laughing. "Spittin' snakes. Hah, somepony pulled that prank on me last month." Applejack said as she laughed.
After a good while of chatting we heard Pinkie call out. "Cake time, everypony!" We saw her motion to a cake with candles on them. "Hey, can I blow out the candles?" Spike asked "Why don't we let Gilda blow out the candles, Spike? She is the guest of honor after all." Twilight said as Gilda walked up to the cake and tried to blow out the candles but they kept relighting itself which was funny seeing her try to put it out.
I laughed as I saw her getting frustrated and I laughed again when I saw that Spike had literally dig into the cake. "Talk about digging in." I laughed at my own joke. "Hey y'all, it's pin the tail on the pony. Let's play." Applejack said as Gilda went to do it first and Pinkie and Spike put the blindfold on her and put her facing the poster but not before spinning her around.
"Now just walk straight ahead and pin the tail." Pinkie told her. "Now just walk straight ahead and pin the tail. Hmph, yeah, right. This is another prank, isn't it? I'm going this way." Gilda said as she turned around away from the poster. Pinkie was trying to tell to turn around but Gilda wouldn't listen which resulted in her slipping on a piece of cake.
She crashed onto the snack table and was covered in food and the tail was on her beak which made it look like she had a mustache. "Uh, Gilda? You pinned the tail on the wrong end." Pinkie said as we all laughed and it soon ended with Gilda roaring. "This is your idea of a good time? I've never met a lamer bunch of dweebs in all my life! And Pinkie Pie, you! You are queen lame-o with your weak little party pranks! Did you really think you could make me lose my cool? Well, Dash and I have ten times as much cool as the rest of you put together! Come on Dash, we're bailing on this pathetic scene." Gilda said as she was leaving but Rainbow wasn't moving and was not happy.
"Come on, Rainbow Dash. I said, we're leaving." "You know Gilda, I was the one who set up all those weak pranks at this party." Rainbow said which surprised Gilda and me. "Woah! I did not see that coming." I said "So I guess I'm queen lame-o." "Come on, Dash, you're joshing me." "They weren't all meant for you specifically, it was just dumb luck that you set them all off." Rainbow told her. "I shoulda known, that dribble cup had Rainbow Dash written all over it." Pinkie said
"No way, i-it was Pinkie Pie! She set up this party to trip me up, to make a fool of me." Gilda tried to deny that it was Pinkie who did those pranks. "Me? I threw this party to improve your attitude. I thought a good party might turn that frown upside down." "And you sure didn't need any help making a fool of yourself. You know, this is not how I thought my old friends would treat my new friends. If being cool is all you care about, maybe you should go find some new cool friends someplace else." Rainbow told her.
"Rrgh... yeah? Well you, you... you are such a, a flip-flop, cool one minute and lame the next. When you decide not to be lame anymore, gimme a call." Gilda said as she left the building as there was a silent pause. "Not cool." "Yep, not cool at all." I said with a shake of disappointment. "I'm sorry everypony, for bringing Gilda here. I didn't know how rude she was. And Pinkie Pie, I'm really sorry she ruined that awesome party you put on for her."
Rainbow apologized. "Hey, you didn't know. I don't blame you." I told her. "Yeah, and if you want to hang out with party poopers, that's your business." I'd rather hang out with you. No hard feelings?" "No hard feelings." They said as the shook hooves but they were both shocked by a electric buzzer which everyone then laughed and we decided to enjoy the party.

"Alright, I have only hit the edge of the target. Now let's see if I can hit the center of the target?" I said as I was prepared to use Aqua Jet. "Let's do this.... Aqua Jet!" I then activated Aqua Jet and I zoomed right onto the center of the target and I landed on my hooves and I saw that blast from my attack. "Alright! Aqua Jet has been.... Has been.... Has been.... Dang it. I forgot what the word is?" I said as I was trying to think of the word.
Then with no warning thunder roared which surprised me and I was now hiccuping like crazy. "Wha-Hic-T was. Hic- that?! Hic." I said as I then heard laugher coming from above and behind a bush. "Rain-Hic-Bow!! Pin-Hic-kie Hic-Pi-Hic-e!"
I just love the design for the Sphinx in mlp and these design for some mlp characters as Sphinx's is just awesome
