Transcript:Rainbow Dash: Here's how I would have run it. All of a sudden, you hear screaming from the other side of town. Anyone not in shelter begins running for it… but not everyone gets out of the way in time. You get there just in time to see a… RABBIT STAMPEDE! They hop along like a river of fur and teeth, biting anything and everything in their path.
Twilight Sparkle: But they're just rabbits.
Rainbow Dash: Vorpal rabbits, like that one in Monty Python.
Rarity: I've seen stats for them. A full warren would be a challenge.
Rainbow Dash: Yeah. Wouldn't that be awesome?
Rarity: It might be a bit much.
Fluttershy: I think I'd tend to the wounded.
Applejack: And I'd try to round them up while staying out of melee.
Twilight Sparkle: Good idea! I'd make illusions of carrots to help guide them into your trap.
Rainbow Dash: But, but… aww, man. You'd sidestep the awesome combat?
Pinkie Pie: Hee hee! Welcome to DMing!
