Pinkie Pie vs. Spinel

## Description

*Their purpose in life is to make everyone laugh and have fun, yet they can be surprisingly competent and even dangerous in combat. But who will win between Equestria's party pony and Pink Diamond's jester?*

## Interlude

Hiro: When life becomes a bore, you'll need someone to make you smile. A good comedian can turn anyone's frown upside down and brighten their day.

**MBStarscream: But piss these two off, and you'll awaken a darker side of them.**

Hiro: Pinkie Pie, the Element of Laughter from My Little Pony.

**MBStarscream: And Spinel, the playmate of Pink Diamond from Steven Universe.**

Hiro: I'm Hiro Hamada.

**MBStarscream: I'm MBStarscream.**

Hiro: And it's our job to examine both warriors' strength, abilities, weapons, and weaknesses to see who would win in a fight.

## Pinkie Pie

Hiro: Born Pinkamena Diane Pie, Pinkie Pie was part of a family of Earth Ponies who lived on a rock farm in the western part of Equestria. They were all overly depressed due to their boring jobs, and Pinkie Pie was very much the same way at the start.

**MBStarscream: But that all changed when Pinkie saw the rainbow shockwave of Rainbow Dash's first Sonic Rainboom. From that moment, Pinkie decided to dedicate her life to spreading joy to other ponies.**

Hiro: After making her entire family smile for the first time via a party, she found her calling as a party pony, spreading happiness and joy wherever she went, moving to Ponyville, setting up shop in the Sugar Cube Corner bakery and ended up becoming one of six ponies brought together by the arrival of one Twilight Sparkle. With her new friends, Pinkie played a key role in ending Nightmare Moon's reign of darkness and freeing Princess Luna from the evil that had corrupted her.

**MBStarscream: From there, Pinkie** **went on to have many adventures with the Mane Six, defeating the likes of Discord, King Sombra, Lord Tirek, and even her own fears and worries about her Element and her friends. Despite being just a pony, Pinkie has done a lot for both her friends and for herself as she has managed to make the residents of Ponyville smile.**

Hiro: While most Earth Ponies in Equestria don’t have the magic of Unicorns or the flight of Pegasi, Pinkie Pie and her family do have sensory abilities, with Pinkie’s being known as the Pinkie Sense. It’s one of the more random abilities out there, but it lets her sense things that are about to happen in her general area, even when no one else can or without even seeing where they’re coming from.

**MBStarscream: Twitchy Tail means something's gonna fall, Flopping Ears means something's gonna get dirty (heh), an itchy back means it's her lucky day, Pinchy Knee means something's scary's gonna happen, an achy shoulder means an alligator's in your bathtub, Ear Flop + Eye Flutter + Knee Twitch = beware opening doors, Ear Flop + Knee Twitch + Eye Flutter = beautiful rainbow, an itchy nose means you gotta watch out for bees, and Body Shuddering means an unexpected doozy is about to happen, which she can sense the location of.**

Hiro: Of course, it’s likely there are other signs/combinations of the Pinkie Sense that Pinkie has that we don’t know about. If you’re still confused, you can directly compare this with Spider-Man’s Spider-Sense, except that with Pinkie’s version, she has specific reactions to certain events as opposed to Spidey’s going off at any perceived danger.

**MBStarscream: What, was she bitten by a magical spider instead of a radioactive one?**

Hiro: Possible. Growing up on a rock farm makes you very well acquainted with... well rocks. Take it from Maud Pie, who once saved Pinkie from a falling boulder by burrowing clean through it with only her hooves in a matter of seconds. And in an alternate timeline where King Sombra waged war against Equestria, Pinkie is shown to have the same ability as Maud, teaming up with her sister to save a war torn Rainbow Dash from being crushed.

**MBStarsream: Even though this is specifically Pinkie in a non-canon alternate timeline shown doing this, there is a lot of evidence showing that Pinkie Prime is capable of this as well. First off is the fact that Earth Ponies are implied to have their own form of magic in their hooves that can be concentrated for powerful effects. Applejack’s bucking is a great example of that, and the fact that all Apples share the same ability implies that it runs in the family. Second, Pinkie has been shown to burrow underground with ease, further supporting that Pinkie’s hooves can pack a punch.**

Hiro: Finally, we can tell this power is concentrated solely on the tip of Pinkie’s hooves since when Maud rescues her from the falling boulder, her hoof is trapped and unable to move, implying that she doesn’t have that same strength on the rest of her leg. This technique may be Pinkie’s most powerful ability yet, as the ability to pummel a solid rock into dust is bound to hurt if the same is done on a living being.

**MBStarscream: Pinkie's tail is also pretty powerful, as it is strong enough to lift her into the air as a helicopter. She can even use her mane as a drill which is strong enough to tunnel through ground and rock.**

Hiro: Pinkie also possesses the mysterious power known as Toon Force, which allows her to violate the laws of physics on a regular basis. She can slow herself down before impacting the water below, temporarily walk on air, use her tail to hover, grow multiple limbs, and put herself back together after literally falling to pieces.

**MBStarscream: Her oddly elastic body allows her to literally bounce off the walls and continuously ricochet off them at a quick rate, inflate herself or parts of her body and float away, stretch her maw large enough to eat something her own size or bigger, and fit in small spaces like mail boxes. And due to her general craziness, Pinkie appears to have some knowledge of the fourth wall as she has broken it multiple times in the show.**

Hiro: She can defy the logic of animation and can actually leave the cartoon if she desires. And let's not forget when she *used real life stock footage during a goof-off with Cheese Sandwich.*

**MBStarscream: OR altering the screen so it would look like a 90s rap video while teaching Rainbow Dash about the Wonderbolts. Even the comics aren't safe from her.**

Hiro: And if you thought Pinkie Pie was a lot to handle, Pinkie was able to make copies of herself via a magic phrase said at an underground lake. These clones are very simple minded, and are known to cause a lot of problems, but are also capable of the same things Pinkie is capable of.

**MBStarscream: Her ultimate weapon, however, is one of the six Elements of Harmony that her friends also represent.** **The Elements are considered to be the “most powerful magic in all of ponydom”, which manifest themselves as necklaces. Held as a last resort to save the world from danger, they can only be used by six ponies who correspond with each Element’s affinity. In Pinkie Pie’s case, she has the Element of Laughter, which she earned by her unwavering desire to see laughter and smiles on all ponies’ faces.**

 Hiro: With the Element’s powers, she helped turn Nightmare Moon back into Princess Luna and since then has traveled with her friends to defend the land from external threats. Interestingly, there has been some precedent for Pinkie being able to tap into these powers without the Element, for as long as she can feel the friendship she shares with her allies, albeit this is not as powerful. Keep in mind the Elements are strong enough to bypass Discord's reality warping as well as trap him in stone. They can also provide a magical forcefield in order to protect their users as well as shoot laser beams.

**MBStarscream: And that's not all she has. Her trademark running gag is the party cannon she can use to fire balloons, confetti, streamers, and party hats. It even has enough force to launch changelings.**

Hiro: Pinkie is a cake maker and she can use cake batter as ammunition to incapacitate an entire hive of changelings. She can also insert fireworks into the cannon, and considering the destructive power of fireworks, it's going to hurt a lot. She can load anything into the cannon including rocks and cannonballs as well as velvet, which is strong enough to send an adult minotaur soaring into the sky

**MBStarscream: Pinkie carries multiple cannons at once which she can pull out of thin air because she’s Pinkie Pie, don’t question it. Finally, while it’s extremely risky, she can use herself as ammo for the cannon which she can launch at her foes or fly right into the sky.**

Hiro: She also has a *real* cannon made to cause damage and destruction opposed to be used for parties, and a very large cannon that can be used to fire out gigantic multi-layed cakes that are bigger than most ponies. And being a party pony, Pinkie uses a lot of party items.

**MBStarscream: For example, she has used balloons which surprisingly are strong enough to carry her into the air. And if she wants to go up to the clouds, she's got the Gyro Copter, a mechanical device which uses pedaling.**

Hiro: Pinkie, being the master of pranking and partying, has a bunch of items that she can use, including sneezing powder, buzzers, dribble glasses, hot sauce, whoopee cushions, presents with spring loaded pies, etc. Another item Pinkie has is party string in a can that is very sticky; practically like super glue. It's incredibly difficult to get out of one's hair, and is so hard to clean off surfaces that it requires a magical cleaning remover to scrub it out.

**MBStarscream: Pinkie is musically gifted enough to be a one-pony band with a banjo, harmonica, accordion, tuba, and trombone amongst many other instruments and even became a member of a traveling band that had a story very similar to The Beatles as a drummer. She was even able to use the instruments to lure an infestation of parasprites out of Ponyville like the Pied Piper of Hamelin.**

Hiro: Pinkie can pull out and throw things like cupcakes, pies, and cakes to pelt her foes, has night vision goggles that allow her to see in the dark, and a crossbow used to fire arrows with zip lines attached to them which she slides gifts down on. Yes, that is a pony holding a crossbow. And by screaming into a loud speaker, Pinkie can make her voice incredibly loud, to the point where it can briefly move all the trees, mountains, and clouds in the area.

**MBStarscream: Due to her Toon Force, Pinkie can pull out numerous random objects from seemingly nowhere, like a hydraulic jack, a crow bar, a jackhammer, and pins to pop balloons. She's also shown that she some times has actual dynamite that she can detonate by using a push box connected to it.**

Hiro: This pony is definitely a lot more than she looks like. She's prevented a potential pony-yak war, fought various monsters and foes across Equestria alongside the rest of her friends, rid Ponyville of the Parasprites, battled a changeling army, and can keep up with Rainbow Dash, who can make sonic booms and fly circles around lightning strikes.

**MBStarscream: She's strong enough to knock ponies into walls with just a touch, lift and carry a yak with ease, and helped pull the freaking moon!**

Hiro: Pinkie can be crushed by large boulders and remain fine, take a beatdown from a fully-grown dragon, survive large avalanches, withstand Lord Tirek's full power attack, and was completely unharmed by a large explosion of love/magic in Chrysalis's lair that was powerful enough to destroy said lair and part the clouds above. That being said, Pinkie certainly isn't invincible.

**MBStarscream: Pinkie** **isn’t much of a fighter and rarely takes it seriously. Her very excitable and upbeat attitude can also be part of her downfall, due to not giving most serious situations the attention they deserve until it may be too late.**

 Hiro: Pinkie can also be very insecure about herself; if she feels like she’s made a huge mistake, she will begin to doubt herself and her capabilities, which is not helped by her tendency to sometimes act very illogically. Pinkie’s biggest weakness, though, is her own brain. Not in the intelligence sense, but more in the psychological. Pinkie seems to have several major psychological problems that can affect the way she works. When she thought that her friends didn’t want to be friends with her anymore, she went into full-on depression and started making friends out of inanimate objects like a bag of flour, a small tower of rocks, etc.

**MBStarscream: Also, most of her tools and weapons aren’t designed for actual combat, and very rarely will she try to use them for said purposes. That being said, a happy-go-lucky, reality-warping pink pony sounds like fun...until you realize that if Pinkie doesn't want you to get away from her, you won't.**

*Pinkie Pie: Oh my gosh. Hold on to your hooves – I am just about to be brilliant!*

## Spinel

Hiro: Many eons ago, the Great Diamond Authority, consisting of four Gem leaders, was formed. This matriarchal body, led by White Diamond, ruled in absolute power over the Gem Homeworld and its colonies, whom all other Gems were created to serve without question.

**MBStarscream: One of these leaders, Pink Diamond, was not allowed to carry out the typical duties of an actual Diamond. She was** **fascinated by the duties of a Diamond but frustrated at the same time since she didn't have one colony to her name.**

Hiro: To keep Pink entertained, Spinel was created to act like her best friend, often playing games with her. However, it did not take long for Pink to find Spinel more annoying than amusing and outgrow her.

**MBStarscream: So when she was finally allowed to control her own colony, which just so happened to be Earth, the first thing she did was tell Spinel not to move an inch and leave her all alone in her garden. Spinel waited for six whole millennia for Pink to return until she finally learned that Pink had given up her physical form to give birth to her half-human son, Steven Universe. Needless to say, she didn't take it well.**

Hiro: Furious that Pink had abandoned her, made new friends, and ended her life without ever returning for her, Spinel decided a plan to destroy Earth, all organic life and everyone Steven loved in revenge. That plan would not be carried out however, as Steven was able to  convince her to let go of her revenge and start a new life with the Diamonds.

**MBStarscream: Steven Universe sure loves redeeming villains. And this one definitely stands out among them all.**

Hiro: Gems can have greater strength, speed, and durability than humans, and Spinel is no exception. She could destroyed a communication computer made of stone with a single punch, clash with Garnet, who is easily the strongest of the Crystal Gems, and trade blows with Steven himself, who could lift her building-sized Injector while his powers were crippled.

**MBStarscream: Keeping up with her is no easy feat; she's able to dodge punches from Garnet and outpace the Crystal Gems in combat. And to add to her strength and speed, she's a lot tougher than she looks, enough to survive getting slingshotted hard into her Injector.**

Hiro: Spinel's body isn't just durable, but is extremely elastic and malleable, able to stretch her limbs and torso to great lengths and inflate body parts to strengthen her attacks. There's nothing Spinel can't do with her elastic abilities: Coiling her extended limbs to form a spring with an inflated fist at the end, becoming as flat as the ground and slithering across it in an almost semi-liquid like state, and even coiling one of her fingers into making a type of horn that activates and deactivates her Injector.

**MBStarscream: Wish I could do that with my middle finger, make the "Fuck you!" extra loud.**

Hiro: She also possesses a physiology similar to rubber or putty, allowing her to jump great distances and bounce off surfaces. When dashing at an opponent, Spinel can move in the style of a twister due to her elasticity, and can run incredibly quickly, making her legs look like a figure eight.

**MBStarscream: Like Amethyst, Jasper and Sonic the Hedgehog, Spinel is able to roll herself into a ball and spin herself at high speeds towards her target. She can also levitate in the air for a while and separate her limbs; when she does this, she still has control of them and can even make them float.**

Hiro: The non-summoned weapon Spinel wields is a Gem Rejuvenator that has the appearance of a scythe. This weapon will revert any Gem hit by it into their original programming from once they emerged as well as cripple Steven's powers to beginner levels.

**MBStarscream: Spinel was adept enough at wielding it that she was easily able to defeat three of the Crystal Gems with one strike. In conjunction with the weapon, Spinel's ability to stretch works greatly in her favor as it allows her to greatly increase the range of the scythe, allowing her to swipe at many different angles and increase the power behind it when she stretched far enough allowing the recoil to strengthen the attack made by the weapon.**

Hiro: Spinel is definitely one of the most dangerous characters in the series. She swiftly defeated the Crystal Gems in their first encounter, came dangerously close to destroying Earth, matched Steven in combat, and even managed to help return Steven to normal after he had transformed into a giant corrupted monster. However, Spinel doesn't lack weaknesses.

**MBStarscream: If enough damage is dealt to her physical form, she'll poof back into her gemstone, and shattering her gem will straight up kill her. Her Gem Rejuvenator also doesn't work on anyone who's not a Gem, as Steven's human side was able to resist it, and her traumatic past has decidedly not left her mentally well.**

Hiro: But these flaws don't make this Gem any less deadly on the battlefield.

*Spinel: (singing) Gee, it's swell to finally beat her other, other, other friends!*

*With great accuracy, the pink Gem slashes through Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl with her scythe, poofing their physical forms in one fell swoop.*

## Fatal Fiction

*Mario flips a coin.*

Hiro: Well, the homefield advantage goes to Pinkie Pie, but does she stand a chance against a maniacal alien jester?

**MBStarscream: I'm feeling pretty Pinkie keen about this.**

Hiro: Nice.

*Ponyville*

Celestia's sun shone over Ponyville and cottony clouds drifted lazily by, casting their shadows across the ground. A light pink pony with a vivid, fluffy, hot-pink mane and three balloons on her flank (one yellow, two blue) cheerily bounced through the town. The pony then stopped mid-bounce as her tail began twitching, slowly at first but gaining speed. **Pinkie Pie** stared at her tail as it vibrated, then a strong wind blew in and an ominous shadow cast over her. She looked up and gasped at what she saw in the sky. Various other ponies also saw what was looming above them and reacted with alarm.

It was a massive machine, easily as big as a castle. The clouds blew away from it in a circle as it descended slowly. It had a black-accented hourglass-shaped body full of a glowing pink liquid and a large hot-pink gemstone-like object with a heart-shaped facet at the top of it. "RUN!" Pinkie screamed before dashing off. Everypony immediately went into panic mode, racing around the town. As the ponies retreated, a shadowy figure appeared at the top of the ship. They had a tall, skinny body, noodle limbs, a pair of pigtails and glowing pink eyes. Chuckling evilly, the strange being extended her arm and her hand grabbed the tail of a fleeing Pinkie, stopping her in her tracks.

Pinkie was dragged backward until she was dangling upside-down over the edge of the machine in the figure's grasp and staring into the being's eyes. "Well, hello there." The being said with evil pleasure. "Uh, could you put me down please?" Pinkie said nervously. "Okay."

The being let go of Pinkie's tail, dropping her. Pinkie screamed as she fell, then stopped inches from the ground as the being grabbed her tail between her thumb and index finger. Pinkie looked up as the figure above her laughed mockingly. The party pony got a good look at the being that was toying with her; she had a pink complexion, magenta eyes, a small pointy nose, and magenta hair. She had three black lines underneath both of her eyes, reminiscent of running mascara. Her clothing consisted of a dark magenta top, puffy pointed hot pink sleeves, puffy magenta shorts, hot pink wrist-length gloves, white stockings and a pair of magenta knee-high pointy boots. In the center of her chest was a reddish-pink gemstone, cut in the style of an upside-down heart.

This being was in fact a member of an extraterrestrial species of "magical" beings called Gems. And this Gem was called a **Spinel**.

"Oh, you're so cute!" Spinel laughed. "Alright, enough beating around the bush." She said as she reeled Pinkie upward like a fishing rod. "I'm looking for someone, and I need a little help. You wouldn't happen to know Steven Universe, would ya?" Asked Spinel.

"Uh, who?"

"Don't play games with me -- that's my job," Spinel growled, jerking a thumb at herself. "Do you know Steven Universe or not?"

"I don't know what you're talking about, Ms. Scary Stretchy Jester Thing That I've Never Seen Before!" Pinkie said honestly. "That's SPINEL to you, you little shrimp!" The Gem said, pressing a finger against the terrified pony's nose. "And if you can't help me out, then I'll just take a practice run of what my Injector can do on this pathetic speck!"

Tossing Pinkie behind her, Spinel held out her pinkie and expanded it out before coiling it into the shape of a horn. She blew into it and a resounding drone, like a foghorn, rang out. The Injector seemed to come to life as Spinel righted her finger again.

Three mechanical spider-like legs and a pointed drill emerged from the bottom of the machine. The legs stabbed into the ground, causing a small earthquake. Supported on the legs, the drill spun into the ground. The pink liquid inside the Injector began to gurgle as it cruised down the drill and into the ground.

Watching this unfold, Pinkie picked herself up off the ground and pointed at the Injector. "Hey! What are you doing with that thing?"

Spinel jumped down to the bottom of her ship and glowered down at Pinkie. "I'm gonna do what I wanna do to Steven *Universe*," she said. "I'm gonna wipe out your little home with this toy of mine."

Now fully convinced that this was a threat to Equestria, Pinkie scowled. "Oh, no you won't! You're gonna pack up and take your Injector-thingy somewhere else!"

"Just what are you gonna do to stop me, hmm?"

"I can do this."

Pinkie then pulled out a present and threw it up at Spinel, who caught it in both hands. Spinel chuckled. "Is that all? Like a little present's gonna--"

She was cut off when the present opened and a pie hit her right in the face. As Pinkie laughed below, Spinel growled and wiped the pie away, revealing her scowling face. "That does it!" The Gem leaped to the ground, flattening herself out before bouncing forward like a spring and landing on her feet upon hitting the floor. She swung her fists back and forth as Pinkie got into a fighting stance.

**FIGHT!**

Pinkie lunged forward and threw a punch at Spinel, who blocked the pony's hoof with a fist. Pinkie punched Spinel's fist a few times before landing on the ground, turning around and bucking her opponent with both hind hooves, knocking the Gem back. Spinel wound up her and inflated her fist before launching a punch at Pinkie, who leaped to the right and blew a raspberry at Spinel, enraging the jester into throwing another punch. Pinkie jumped on top of a house, taunting Spinel, "Catch me if you can!"

She leapt away as Spinel's fist smashed through the house's roof. Pinkie jumped from house to house, dodging punch after punch until Spinel, fed up beyond belief, grabbed Pinkie in mid-air as she jumped towards the next house and slammed her into the ground. As Pinkie got up, Spinel grabbed the pony's shoulders with both hands, pulled her towards her and kicked her into the air. Spinel jumped up to meet Pinkie in mid-air and punched her away, sending her flying back and crashing to the ground. Pinkie pushed herself up and saw Spinel curl up into a small ball and roll towards her. In response, Pinkie took out a light blue cannon with pink wheels that had flowers painted on them, causing Spinel to roll into it.

Pinkie shot Spinel and a large burst of confetti out of the cannon, sending the pink Gem soaring through the sky and crashing into a nearby house. Seconds later, Spinel burst out of the house while spinning around like a tornado towards Pinkie. Getting an idea, Pinkie stood on one hind leg and began spinning around in a similar manner before the two comediennes collided, fists and hooves striking each other repeatedly. After a few seconds, they stopped spinning and began trading blows. Both were evenly matched until Spinel kicked Pinkie backward. Pinkie then jumped onto Spinel's head, spun around until she was behind her, and then literally kicked the Gem's butt, sending her forward a bit.

Spinel turned around and delivered a mighty blow that knocked Pinkie to the ground. The jester then grabbed Pinkie and coiled her arms around her body while still holding her, before releasing her arms to spin Pinkie around and toss her away. Pinkie got up, pulled out a cupcake and threw it at Spinel, who destroyed it with a punch. Pinkie threw more and more cupcakes, Spinel punching each edible projectile to pieces every time until she extended her leg and knocked Pinkie backwards with a kick. Jumping into the air, Spinel punched with her right hand as she came down. The punch connected with the floor as Pinkie jumped back. The Element of Laughter lunged at Spinel and punched her in the stomach repeatedly before delivering a buck-kick that sent the jester flying back.

Spinel slid backwards on her feet until she came to a stop. Snarling angrily, the pink Gem reached to her gemstone, which glowed briefly as she removed something: a magenta cylinder, looking like some sort of handle with a button on the side of it. She pressed the button on the handle with her thumb, and the top of the cylinder extended into a pole with a crystal tip. A long scythe blade made of electrical pink energy took form, with a square-like edge on the other side shaped like a pair of fangs.

Pinkie gulped as she took a step back. "Um, that doesn't look safe."

Spinel only chuckled. "Don't worry; it's in safe hands. Too bad YOU'RE not safe!"

With those words, Spinel stretched her legs back, winding herself up like a slingshot, before launching herself forward as she did a massive slash in front of her. Pinkie narrowly ducked under Spinel's slash as the Gem flew over her. Landing behind Pinkie, Spinel charged at the party pony with her scythe, swinging wildly as Pinkie dodged this way and that. As Spinel grew more frustrated, Pinkie suddenly started doing a can-can dance, continuously kicking Spinel until a final kick knocked Spinel backwards.

Spinel threw her scythe at Pinkie, who slid under the jester's legs on her tail. Spinel extended her hand, grabbed her scythe and turned around to see Pinkie aiming her party cannon at her. A cannonball was shot out of the cannon that Spinel caught in her right hand and threw back at Pinkie, who kicked her own projectile into the air. Pinkie jumped into the air, grabbed the cannonball in mid-air and threw it down at Spinel, who quickly rolled out of the way. As Pinkie landed on her hooves, Spinel extended her hand and grabbed Pinkie by the throat. She threw the Element of Laughter towards her Injector, and Pinkie crashed into one of the ship's legs.

As Pinkie tried to get up, a pink glove-clad hand grabbed her face, and the next thing she knew, she was lifted off her hooves and slammed into the ground behind Spinel. Raising and inflating her fist, Spinel smashed Pinkie with it, forming cracks in the ground and shaking the area. The Gem then began extending her body all around the Injector, stretching her body to a tremendous degree. Flattened into a pink pancake, Pinkie inflated her body to its normal proportions and tried getting up as Spinel began unwinding her body.

She then felt something sharp slicing through her torso from behind her. "AAAAGGGHH!" Pinkie collapsed to the ground... and began giggling. "Huh? What the?" Spinel said as she turned around and saw Pinkie laughing on the floor. She slashed at Pinkie again. And again... and again... but Pinkie only laughed harder.

"S-Stop it! Hahaha! \*snort\* I'm gonna pee! Don't! Don't, don't!"

Spinel looked down at the laughing pony and then at her scythe. "Guess this thing doesn't work on non-Gems, huh? Oh, well." She said as she deactivated the scythe and tossed it behind her shoulder. The Gem then remade her hand-horn and blew into it; the Injector immediately pumped more of its liquid into the earth, sending massive cracks along the ground. Pinkie got up as one crack got closer to her and jumped away before it could open underneath her. Spinel then grabbed Pinkie, jumped high in the sky and threw Pinkie down to the top of her Injector, the pony hitting the facet. Spinel landed in front of Pinkie as the pony got up to face her.

"Let's finish this, friend!"

"It's on, Pinkie Pie style!"

They both lunged forward and clashed together, each struggling to overpower the other as their glares burned into each other's eyes. They remained in their stalemate until Pinkie jumped on Spinel, hit her in the face with her hoof while shouting "HONK!" before flipping around and throwing the jester forward. Stopping inches from the edge of the platform, Spinel snarled before charging at Pinkie with both fists clenched. She threw an uppercut and a downward punch at Pinkie, but the pink equid jumped backward to dodge the Gem's blows. She blocked a few more punches from Spinel until the jester kicked Pinkie back. Spinel flattened her body before bouncing along the ground like a spring to get closer to Pinkie, then flicked the pony's nose and kicked her hard enough to send her flying away from the Injector.

In mid-air, Pinkie spun her tail like a propeller and took flight to stop herself from falling. She then stretched her hooves forward, grabbed Spinel's body, and pulled herself towards the Gem, colliding into her and knocking her down. Pinkie bounced up and down on Spinel's body, producing a squeaking noise with each jump, until Spinel lifted her foot, making Pinkie land on it stomach-first. Spinel slammed her foot onto the ground with Pinkie under it and loomed over the pinned pony. She wiped Pinkie across the surface of the platform like a mop before grinding her foot on Pinkie's torso.

Spinel chuckled as Pinkie tried to push her foot away. "How are you gonna get outta *this* one, "Pinkie Pie"?" She taunted as she extended her neck so her head moved over to Pinkie, looking down at her victim. Her evil smile suddenly disappeared when Pinkie planted a hoof into Spinel's eye, making her shout in pain and reel her head back. Pinkie then rubbed Spinel's leg between her hooves as fast as she could until the friction burn forced Spinel to step off of the party pony and bounce on her other foot while holding her leg in pain. "Oh, hot, hot, hot!" She cried.

Pinkie got up and whistled into her hoof. Then the earth began to tremble and both could hear a cacophony of shouting getting louder by the minute. "Fun! Fun! Fun!" That was the only that word echoed throughout Ponyville as hundreds of pink hooves pounded the earth. A stampede of Pinkie clones climbed up the Injector like ants and pushed themselves up the platform, as Spinel could only watch in open-mouthed shock.

"You gotta be kidding me."

As the Pinkie clones all charged in her direction, Spinel spun around like a tornado again and sent any clone that lunged at her flying off the Injector, some falling into the cracks on the ground below. The real Pinkie leaped behind Spinel as the Gem fought off the clones. Spinel stopped spinning and began punching away at the next clones that came at her. While Spinel was distracted, Pinkie charged and planted a flying kick into her opponent's back, knocking her off the Injector. Spinel landed in the outstretched hooves of the Pinkie clones that were on the ground, and was thrown further back.

Getting up, Spinel saw the clones jump up and turn their manes into drills as gravity pulled them down, burrowing into the ground and forming multiple holes. One clone poked her head out of a hole and said "Fun!", before narrowly ducking back into her hole as Spinel's fist came down. What followed was a game of "Whack-a-Pinkie" as Spinel furiously tried to hit any clone that peeked out of their hole, with little luck. Growling in anger, Spinel jumped up, grew her fist in a ridiculous size, and punched the ground so hard that when she lifted her hand after landing on her feet, a huge crater was formed in the ground. The Pinkie clones were nowhere to be seen.

Spinel breathed hard as she looked at the crater she had just made. Then she looked up and received a blob of cake batter to the face, fired from Pinkie's party cannon. Shaking the batter off, Spinel jumped high enough to land behind Pinkie on the Injector. Before the Element of Laughter could react, Spinel grabbed her tail and spun her around like a flail. Spinel then hurled Pinkie up high into the air, followed by coiling her legs like springs so she could follow. Soon, both were trading blows *above the cloud layer.* Even as the comediennes began falling tens of thousands of feet, their main focus was beating the daylights out of one another.

Eventually, Spinel unleashed a punishing blow that sent Pinkie careening downward. As Pinkie fell, Spinel coiled her arm up like a spring and inflated her fist to a gigantic size. Pinkie somehow managed to slow down her own descent and saw Spinel aiming her massive fist down at her.

"Uh-oh."

Spinel stretched her fist down at Pinkie for a powerful punch that crushed her into the Injector's top, with the impact strong enough to shake the earth and damage the machine. As Spinel descended from the sky, she saw Pinkie flat as a sheet inside a crater from the impact. Forming herself back to normal, Pinkie stood up and said, "Gee, you sure like flattening things, don't ya?"

"And *you* sure like being ANNOYING!"

Spinel leapt above Pinkie and unleashed a downward wound-up punch as the party pony jumped out of the crater, the Gem's blow further cracking the Injector's surface. Landing on her feet, Spinel threw more punches at Pinkie, who countered the jester's blows with punches of her own. Pinkie then flew towards Spinel, holding out her hind leg for a kung fu kick, but hit nothing as Spinel flattened herself to duck under Pinkie's attack. The pony slid on her hooves and got into a combat stance as Spinel slithered towards her adversary like a snake, then bounced and reverted her body to normal, ready to continue fighting.

But before the combatants could do anything else, light shone brightly underneath them. Looking down, Pinkie and Spinel saw the Injector beginning to explode from the damage it had sustained. They looked at each other and huddled together before they were engulfed in an earth-shattering explosion.

Debris fell everywhere from the skies. Burnt, but otherwise unharmed, Pinkie too hit the ground. She spat out some dirt before getting up and observing the damage around her, seeing nothing but pieces of the Injector in the crater she was in.

"Oh, this is gonna take forever to clean up!" She complained. "At least that Injector thing's gone."

She then noticed something else on the ground. It took Pinkie a second to realize that it was the shattered shards of a heart-shaped gemstone. Spinel's gemstone. The Gem unfortunately stood no chance against that explosion, and was shattered on the spot. Gasping, Pinkie looked around before taking out a vacuum cleaner and sucking up the shards. She then gave the camera a nervous smile with a sqeeing sound before dashing away.

**FATALITY!**

## Results

**MBStarscream: Told ya these two could fight when pushed too far!**

Hiro: This was quite intense. Spinel's unique body control made her an unorthodox opponent that proved to be challenging for Pinkie Pie at first, but the Element of Laughter was ultimately able to triumph for a variety of reasons.

**MBStarscream: Pinkie outclassed Spinel in just about everything. Spinel's incredibly strong in her own right, but Pinkie could shake mountains by screaming into a megaphone and help pull the moon down to Earth. She was a lot faster too, able to keep up with Rainbow Dash's FTL flying speed.**

Hiro: While Spinel boasts impressive durability, Pinkie has shown to be the tougher of the two, surviving avalanches and explosions powerful enough to destroy Chrysalis' lair. Pinkie also had a lot more experience in combat than Spinel, battling various monsters and villains on a regular basis, while all Spinel did was just stand still for 6,000 years and fight the Crystal Gems.

**MBStarscream: Even then, Spinel only beat the Crystal Gems so easily in their first fight cuz they had gotten quite rusty from not doing any fighting for two years. Once the Crystal Gems were ready in their second confrontation, the tables were quickly turned on Spinel.**

*Garnet: She's running circles around us.*

*Amethyst: I'm rusty. Give me a break!*

Hiro: On top of her superior combat experience, Pinkie has assisted her friends in fighting enemies considerably more powerful than anything Spinel has fought, from a reality-warping draconequus to a magic-draining centaur to a dark unicorn king. And because of her non-Gem physiology, Spinel's Gem Rejuvenator wasn't going to be of any use to her, as only Gems are affected by it.

**MBStarscream: That scythe was also the only weapon Spinel really had, while Pinkie came packed with plenty of party items and weapons, like her cannon. Spinel also wasn't going to be able to put Pinkie down due to her flat-out insane Toon Force and lower-level reality warping.**

Hiro: And with her strength, Pinkie would be more than capable of breaking Spinel's fragile gemstone, so her durability didn't matter here. Add all that with the Pinkie Sense being able to track Spinel's movements, and you have a fight that Pinkie had in the bag almost from the start.

**MBStarscream: What a *heartbreaking* loss.**

Hiro: Pinkie Pie wins.
