Intro Quest 1: Stretching with Scootaloo

Scootaloo: WOOOOO! School's out for the summer, the weather's amazing, and best of all... IT'S THE DAY OF THE CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS BEACH TRIP!!!

Sweetie Belle: We're all meeting up in Horseshoe Bay today -- and not just me, Apple Bloom, and Scootaloo, either. It's ALL the Crusaders! Gabby and Babs Seed are taking the train in, too!

Scootaloo: We're gonna go swimming, and build sand castles, and get ice pops at the concession stand...

Scootaloo: ... OOH! And best of all, play beach volleyball in the super-special-awesome tournament I set up! It's gonna be EPIC. I'd better warm up before I get there so I don't seize up on the court!

"Oh, I LOVE Horseshoe Bay! Mostly because it's a gateway to pirate adventures -- not for the beach volleyball. But beach volleyball's fun, too!"

Scootaloo: Horseshoe Bay... I'm finally here! That train ride felt like it took FOREVER...

Gabby: If you think THAT was hard, try taking the local all the way from Griffonstone!

Babs Seed: Or the express from Manehattan! I mean, yeah, it's fast, but it's FULL of finance stallions and Maresey Shore party ponies...

Scootaloo: Gabby! Babs! You made it! Ohh, it's been WAY too long! Wait: I know I got here early, but did either of you see--

Apple Bloom: "Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle?" Heehee -- sure did! But we DID just come from the swimsuit place down the way, so there were plenty of changing mirrors.

Scootaloo: Yeah! If you wanna do a beach day, you gotta dress for it, right?

Scootaloo: Guys...!!! Oh, this is gonna be SO fun! You're all still up for beach volleyball, right? Because I spent the whole ride over figuring out a tournament bracket...

"Did Apple Bloom just say there was a swimwear place around here?! I wonder if they have anything in a Dragon Size Small..."

Scootaloo: ... Now, I know there's five of us, and beach volleyball is usually two to a side, so we're going to have to bend the rules a little to have MAXIMUM fun...

Scootaloo: Ooh -- but I DID reserve the best volleyball court on the beach! Nice breeze off the dunes, brand-new net, squishy sand -- but not TOO squishy...

Summertime Diamond Tiara: And currently occupied! Silver Spoon and I double-ADVANCE-reserved this volleyball court for our... uh... thrice-seasonal private singles tournament! So why don't you just... just... BUZZ OFF!

Summertime Silver Spoon: Uh... YEAH!

Apple Bloom: Diamond Tiara! Um... are you feeling okay? Sure you didn't time-travel back to when you were mean to us all the time for no reason?

Sweetie Belle: (Apple Bloom...!) What she means is, if there's anything that's bothering you right now, you know you can talk to us about it! Maybe we can help you--

Summertime Diamond Tiara: IF YOU PEASANTS WANNA USE THIS COURT, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO CHALLENGE US FOR IT!

ScootalooL O... kay... Well, there's DEFINITELY something going on here... but I'm not about to back down from a challenge! Get your game faces on, Crusaders -- we're going best two out of three!

Scootaloo: ... And that's game! Good hustle out there, Crusaders! And nice... uh... whatever it is you were doing out there, Diamond Tiara...? (Seriously, are you OK?)

Summertime Diamond Tiara: Don't PATRONIZE me, Scoota-loser! I was just... (rrrf) ...biding my TIME until-- (gh)! WHY DOES THIS SAND HAVE TO BE SO SANDY?!

Scootaloo: That... doesn't SOUND okay. You know, we can just call it here if you want, Diamond Tiara! Take a break? Build a sand castle or two?

Summertime Diamond Tiara: Your mind games aren't gonna work on ME, peasants! Silver Spoon, get in back of me, NOW! We're switching places! That way, when I BEAT them, I can see the looks on their-- (HWALP!)

• Each blast costs 1 energy and gives you Template:Sapphires to Template:Sapphires (60 on average), which can be used for upgrades. Each attack deals damage equal to your power. Energies take time to regenerate.
• Upgrades increase your power, maximum energy capacity and decreases the recharge time for each energy.
• Starts with 10 (power), 10 energy and 13 minutes (recharge time) per energy.

Scootaloo: ... And that's the game... again. I think that means we won the challenge, right? Uh... Diamond Ti--

Summertime Diamond Tiara: THE HORSESHOE BAY COUNTRY CLUB IS CLO-HO-HOOOOSED...!!!

Scootaloo: Uh... What?

Summertime Diamond Tiara: It's... (sniff)... closed for RENOVATIONS, and... (sniff)... my parents didn't know until we got there, and... and all my country club friends DID know and they're summering in Manejorca instead...

Summertime Diamond Tiara: And it's just silver spoon and me, and we counldn't play REGULAR volleyball because the country club is closed, and... (sniff)... AND I'M TERRIBLE AT BEACH VOLLEYBALL!!!

Sweetie Belle: Diamond Tiara...! Ohh, that's terrible! I knew SOMETHING was wrong, but.. why didn't you tell us?

Apple Bloom: Actually... I kinda get it. If you're lonely and sad, it can be easy to take it out on other ponies. Especially if you're not used to bein' honest about how you feel!

Scootaloo: Yeah... but it's better to talk to your friends about it, and work through your feelings together. Who knows... They might teach you how to play beach volleyball!

Summertime Diamond Tiara: (Sniff...) R-Really? Even after I was so mean to you...?

Scootaloo: Of course! What are friends for? Now, c'mon. Let's play another set, but this time for fun. With our help, you'll be as awesome on sand as you are on a hard court!

Summertime Silver Spoon: ... Ooh! Dibs on the next round! Silver Spoon, it's your time to shine!!!
