Chapter 1: Game Magic

It's a sunny day in Canterlot City, many people are going around with their everyday lives. Doing work, hanging out with friends, and other activities. Of course, at times people everyday lives have become magical because Equestrian Magic has enter their world.

One evening at Pinkie's house, she and her friends are having a sleepover. They are eating pizzas, doing each other's hair and makeup, and are playing all kinds of game. But there is this one game that the girls are playing right now, and is hard to play.

"Rats!" Rainbow screams.

Then Rainbow shouts, "I can't believe I lost again!"

"Well Rainbow, Pinkie did tell us the game will be hard," Applejack says.

"Yeah. I never seen so many hard bosses in one game," Sunset adds.

"I know. But… I didn't think the game Cuphead will be that hard! I got creamed by a mermaid like gorgon or something," Rainbow says, not happy to lose. Rainbow Dash doesn't like losing one bit.

"I believe her name was Cala Maria," Twilight replies.

"I kind of wish I can be a mermaid and swim across the sea with other sea creatures. But um, I don't think I'll like being bitten by eels and turned into a gorgon," Fluttershy shyly replies.

"I definitely like to dress up like Baroness Von Bon Bon. She get to be surrounded by candy, cakes, and all kinds of sweets," Pinkie says with a smile.

"And probably get a lot of cavities," Sunset remarks.

"Ha ha, very funny!" Pinkie says with a huff.

"So does anyone else like to play?" Rainbow asks.

"I'll play a little," Twilight answers.

"Coo. who you want to battle against?" Rainbow replies.

"Hmm, how about Cagney?" Twilight answers.

"The overgrown weed wacker," Rainbow bluntly says.

"Rainbow, he's a carnation. He can be a little aggressive, but I'll bet he's a sweet flower," Twilight says.

"Yeah. A sweet flower with a thorny attitude," Rainbow remarks.

"Yeah. That carnation seems to have a mean temper," Applejack agrees.

"Cagney seems sweet at the beginning," Fluttershy replies.

Sunset grabs the remote, "I'll play with you."

"Great," Twilight says.

Twilight and Sunset play with the remotes and reach to Cagney's garden.

Just then, the screen changes to Cuphead and Mugman are at Cagney garden, and are with the big carnation. Soon, the battle has begun. Sunset and Twilight are battling the carnation. Twilight is Mugman, and Sunset is Cuphead.

Sunset plays the game as she says, "Boys, these Cuphead bosses are hard to beat."

"Yeah. How can anyone actually beat this game?" Twilight asks.

"It takes good skills not to die in the game," Applejack says.

"You can say that again," Rainbow replies.

While Sunset and Twilight are playing, Rarity and Fluttershy are doing some nails and make up with each other. Applejack, Pinkie and Rainbow are playing cards.

Looking at her cards, Applejack says, "I have two queens."

"I got two kings and seven," Rainbow says, showing off cards.

"For Aces, I win!" Pinkie cheers for herself.

"What?!" Rainbow exclaims in shock.

Pinkie sticks her tongue at Rainbow with her eyes closed.

Rainbow says with an annoyed look, "I swear, if you cheated I…"

"Pinkie cheats at life, Rainbow. No use getting upset about it," Sunset replies.

"Yeah. You're better off fighting magical objects than trying to figure out how Pinkie works," Applejack says.

Suddenly, Sunset shouts, "Aw man! We lost!"

"That carnation maybe sweet, but he sure is good with thorny vines and roots," Twilight replies.

"I have to agree. But King Dice's boss level and the Devil's boss is very hard to beat," Rarity says.

"Yeah. I think you had to be really good to beat those two. Surprisingly, the last part of the final boss is actually easy," Rainbow says.

Suddenly, Pinkie has an idea, "Hey, I just come up with two amazing ideas."

"What is it?" Fluttershy asks.

"Halloween is coming up next mont, why don't we dressed up as characters from Cuphead! I call being Baroness Von Bon Bon!" Pinkie lously explains.

"Hmm, that actually not a bad idea," Sunset says.

Rarity happily says, "Ooh, and I can make the costumes for us. I'll start making some sketches. Pinkie, you said you called to be Baroness Von Bon Bon."

"Yep," Pinkie answers with a big smile.

Fluttershy shyly says, "I like to be Cala Maria."

Rarity writes down on the list.

Applejack thinks about it, "Hmm, there's not much characters that has my interest. But I do like to dress like Mugman."

"I call being Cuphead!" Rainbow calls.

"Hmm, I'll have to go with dressing as Dr. Kahl. And Maybe I can make a miniature version of his robot," Twilight answers.

"I'm debating whether or not to be dressed as Ms. chalice or Pirouletta," Sunset answers.

"Pirouletta? Isn't she one of King Dice's henchmen, henchwoman, or something," Applejack questions.

"That's true. But I actually kind of like her," Sunset replies.

Then Rarity says, "And I like to be Sally, but I have a wonderful idea what to do for dressing up as Ms. Chalice myself

"I guess you can be Ms. chalice and I can be Pirouletta," Sunset says.

"Good," Rarity replies.

Then writes down the list for what her friends want to be.

By the way Pinkie, what will this other thing that you just thought of?" Applejack wonders.

"Well, remember how Equestrian Magic changing the objects like Juniper's mirror, Twilight's watering can, and Vignette's cell phone into magical objects that can be very dangerous?" Pinkie explains.

"Well, the only reason why mgic ends up turning dangerous because Juniper and Vignette got carried away with their own desire that end up corrupting them," Sunset says.

Then Twilight asks, "So what about it?"

"Well, wouldn't it be great if Equestrian Magic allow us to get into the video game so we can join with Cuphead and Mugman to fight alongside them to beat enemies and the Devil?" Pinkie asks.

The girls stare at her with confused looks on their faces. Rainbow and Applejack even turn off the game to look at her with confused eyes.

Sunset calmly says, "No Pinkie, just no."

"Aww, but why not?" Pinkie asks.

"Because, everytime Equestrian Magic effect something or someone we end up endanger than having fun. As much fun as it being to playing the game alongside with the characters… the other characters in the game can be pretty hard for even us to handle," Sunset explains.

Rainbow rolls her eyes, "Yeah right, I'm sure we can beat the Devil, his lackey King Dice, and all of his other goons. We have geodes that gives us superpowers. And as long as we stick together, there's absolutely nothing that can beat us."

"I don't know. We have problems beating them on the game. Imagine how hard it will be to beat them in real life," Applejack says.

"And besides, what are the chances that Equestrian Magic is going to come by," Twilight adds.

Fluttershy shyly answers, "With how much we've been through, it's very likely that one is bound to show up soon."

"You do have a point. We're like magic magnets. Everywhere we go, magic can't seem to be that far behind," Rarity worriedly replies.

Then Sunset says, "And after that, we manage to use the Magic of Friendship to save the day. And we end up making some new friends along the way."

"Now you're talking," Rainbow replies.

"So I don't think we're going to have any problem with Equestrian Magic or anything evil anytime soon," Sunset reassures.

The girls nod their heads with smiles on their faces.

Just then, they hear the doorbell rings.

Pinkie happily shouts, "Pizza's here!"

With that girls runs out of the room so they can get a bite to eat and some drinks. For the time being, they talk about other fun stuff and girl talk.

Later in the night, the girls are fast asleep. Pinkie and Rarity are sleeping on the bed while the rest of the girls are sleeping in their sleeping bags. They have been playing the Cuphead game, card games, board games, doing each other hair, makeup, and other fun activities for the day that they all wore themselves out. And tomorrow, they might have some more fun doing what they want to do.

While they're are sleeping, red and blue light swirl around the city and end up going through the window of Pinkie's bedroom. Both of the stream of light are Equestrian Magic. Both of the magic travel and swirl around together, and land on the Cuphead disc in the case.

Suddenly, the game begins to glow… And then… multiple orbs of light fly out of the disc and fly all over Canterlot City.

And then two lights of red and blue are the only ones that aren't leaving the room. They both land by the girls who are the lights disappear, it shows two figures that are sleeping right beside the girls. And the first thing to show about the two figures is that their heads look like… cups.
