Bubbles: Hey! She doesn't have to show you diddly!
Buttercup: Yeah! So what if she hasn't gotten her new powers yet, and might never get them? (echoes in Blossom's head)  Never get them, never get them...
(Blossom starts to tear up as the instrumental to "The Pony I Want to Be" plays)
Blossom: I gotta go. I'll see you guys at home.
(Bubbles and Buttercup go back to normal and look at each other, concerned)
(Cut to Blossom as it starts to rain)
Blossom: (starts singing) If I'm a hero, then why do I feel so rough? I'm as strong as a stone, even that's not enough. There's something jagged in me and I've made such mistakes. I thought that heroes fought hard, though I feel I could break. Would you believe, that I've always wished I could be somebody else? Yet I can't see, what I need to do to be the Puff that I want to be.
(Blossom passes by some signs advertising upgrade)
Blossom: I've always fought like before, always knew what to say. Nobody showed me that there might be some brand new way. And now I feel like I'm lost, I don't know what to do. The ground is sinking away, I'm about to fall through. Would you believe, that I've always wished I could be somebody else? Yet I can't see, what I need to do to be the Puff that I want to be.
(Blossom passes by an arrow reading "Useless Junk" pointing to a bin with a cracked mirror, looks into it, and the mirror breaks)
Blossom: Jeez, I get it. To be the Puff that I want to be.
(The song ends)
