Chapter 3 – Making a Plan

Everypony set off to find their friends and discussed their plans about Spike and Sweetie Belle's special moment at the gala with them, whilst Sweetie Belle and Fluttershy stayed behind to come up with the song. In one side of the town, Shining Armor and Princess Cadence checked upon Rainbow Dash and The Wonderbolts who were practicing their routine.

"Doing good up there guys," called Shining Armor. "Mind if we talked to you for a second?" Rainbow Dash looked, and flew down to the couple with her teammates behind her.

"Sure Shining, what is it you want?" She asked eagerly.

"Well we are planning a special something at the gala, and we want you to help us with it by being a chorus." Princess Cadence explained. Rainbow gave a little frown.

"A chorus, as in a musical chorus?"

"Yes, to help Sweetie Belle, as she is going to help Spike out in a very special way, by singing a special song for him." Shining Armor added. "You see Spike is upset because Rarity is going to the gala with Toe Tapper, so Sweetie Belle is being his date instead."

Rainbow flapped her wings excitedly from this response. "Wow that's awesome I always knew Sweetie Belle was close with Spike and she has an awesome singing voice."

Soarin agreed, with him and the Wonderbolts saluted at the Princess and the Captain of the Royal Guard. "Sure, we'll help out. You can count us in sir."

"Thank you Rainbow, Soarin, Spitfire and Fleetfoot. Twilight will be pleased." Added Princess Cadence.

Meanwhile at her travelling wagon, Trixie was practicing her tricks with the rest of the Breezies. She had a lot of fun playing with them, as she had never seen Breezies before, she was introduced to them by Twilight and Fluttershy. Then Discord and Seabreeze showed up.

"Hey there Trixie, you're getting good at this." Discord said.

"Thanks," replied Trixie. "The Great and Powerful Trixie, always practices her tricks. To make sure they are up to good performance standards. Ready to practice our routine?"

"Sure Trixie." Seabreeze said excitedly. "Thanks for letting me and my friends be a part of your act." The other Breezies cheered.

"You're welcome."

"Trixie, Twilight asked Seabreeze and I to ask you for a favour," said Discord. "Along with the other Breezies of course." And he quickly transformed into a conductor's outfit.

"What is it?" asked Trixie.

"You see Sweetie Belle is going to sing a special song at the Gala as she is going to be a special somepony for Spike, as he is upset. Twilight wants us to be her special chorus to help her conquer her fear of stage fright. And we could use the Breezies as part of it."

Trixie pondered for a moment. "A chorus huh? The Great and Powerful Trixie, likes being part of a musical performance. You can count me in." All three of them smiled with delight and practiced their routine.

Meanwhile at Sugarcube Corner, Twilight dropped by to see Pinkie Pie, Cheese Sandwich, Coco Pommel and Applejack going through the preparations for the food and decorations.

"How's everypony doing?" She asked

"Everything's okey-dokey-lokey Twilight," replied Pinkie Pie excitedly. "This is going to be so much fun."

"You got that right Pinkie," Cheese Sandwich added. "This is going to be epic!"

"The decorations are nearly ready Twilight," said Coco Pommel. "Rarity helped designed them and she put me in charge of the arrangements."

"So how did the picnic go Twilight?" asked Applejack. "I bet it went so well."

"It sure was Applejack," Twilight replied with a satisfying look. "I need to ask you guys something?"

"Sure." Replied Pinkie quickly. "What is it you want huh?"

Twilight replied eagerly. "Well we are planning a special something at the gala, and we want you to help us with it by being a chorus."

"As in a musical chorus?" asked Applejack.

"Yes. To help Sweetie Belle, as she is going to help Spike out in a very special way, by singing a special song for him."

"Why? Is Spike OK?" asked Cheese Sandwich.

Twilight replied with a sigh. "You see Spike is upset because Rarity is going to the gala with Toe Tapper, so Sweetie Belle is being his date instead."

"That is so sweet," said Coco.

"We'll be happy to help Twilight. Anything to put a smile on the little dragon's face." Pinkie Pie added with a smile. Twilight beamed with happiness, and they all spread the word to all of their friends including the Princesses and Apple Bloom and Scootaloo. The plan was starting to set in motion.
