My little Pony Friendship is Magic belongs to Hasbro and Lauren Faust. “Applejack get up, it’s time to eat.” Big Macintosh shook his sister to wake her up. “Wash up too since you stink of sweat…oh Ah need to talk to you about something important.” His voice did not have the kind gentleness which is always default on him along with his eyes are no longer half closed but now fully opened. “Oooh big brother mah head hurts so much please help me up.” Applejack groans while a she feels a vise grip her head with increasing pressure. “All right, get on my back and Ah’ll carry you to your room and bring you, your breakfast up there.” Big Macintosh got on his knees so Applejack can climb on,while feeling some of her sweat run on him and once she's on his back he slowly makes his way to her room. “Applejack do you know a mare called Bon Bon?” Applejack groans a bit more as she searched her mind for any information on Bon Bon. “Yeah she is always a frequent customer at Sugarcube Corner always buying a ton of candy from Pinkie…uhh why do you ask?” “Just wondering, but also does she fancy anypony?” Big Macintosh points his ears back a bit so he can catch whatever Applejack will say. “*Cough* Now that Ah think about it she spent hours talking about she saw how beautiful Lyra is…how she wants to ask her out so can marry her and stuff all tha *gasp*… oh no.” The red stallion snorts in tune to shaking his head. “So you knew this mare had her eye on Lyra and yet you didn’t bother telling me in the first place! She came by this morning telling me to stay away from Lyra, now what am Ah supposed to do huh? It’s not in my nature to, to…” Big Macintosh just couldn’t find the right words to express his rising frustration. “Ah’m sorry I didn’t tell ow! You, Ah thought…” “Shut it Applejack, talk to me when your brain dry of alcohol. Ah will bring you your breakfast momentarily.” Big Macintosh leans his body to the side so sweaty Applejack can slide off him and onto her bed. As Big Macintosh entered the hallway his lips created a smirk. “Ah hate having to make myself mean to Applejack, but it’s the only way to make her talk. Hmmm Lyra, Lyra, I better seek out a pony that can help me with this… perhaps Ms. Twilight or Ms. Rarity will be kind enough to help me since Twilight reads a lot and Rarity a master at flirting…I think.” *** Fluttershy finished her breakfast rather quick given she is quite a slow eater but she had to get home fast because Angel ran out of carrots. After putting her plate in Twilight’s sink, she asks Twilight to show her to the door. After Twilight opened the door, Fluttershy didn’t step out but instead turned around to face Twilight, who is only a few paces away from her. Twilight Sparkle meanwhile stiffens her muscles; this moment seemed identical to the dream. Her horn dimly glows very lightly just in case Fluttershy ever did that action. However Fluttershy slowly moves towards Twilight and took her into an embrace surprising Twilight, since this was not the action from Fluttershy she had anticipated but still a kind act on Fluttershy’s part. “Thanks for bringing me to your house when I was drunk and giving me some breakfast, I really appreciate it. Bye Twi.” “B-bye Fluttershy have fun.” Once the Pegasus is gone Twilight closed the door and let out a sigh of relive. “Time to plan…I now know Rarity’s hidden love with Applejack, but question is how can I use it against her. Hmm where is that book.” She started to search high and low for the book whose title she forgot, ironically this is the first time where she did not have any desire for Spike’s help because if he ever found out about her intentions she had for Rarity… it will spell out determent from the young dragon. Oh how he will go to great lengths to stop her in order to protect Rarity, ha if only he knew Rarity is in love with Applejack. "Yes Perfect! Found it… hmm too bad the title is worn out so I better go by its identification number. Let’s see if I remember it right it should be 910-1138-117. Good, good it is the book.” The unicorn took out a quill and a notebook to write down notes since this book will help her do bad things to a certain part of the pony body... The mind is the greatest strength but also the greatest weakness if scarred. If she couldn’t have Rarity’s heart then she will have her mind. The beauty of the heart and the mind is that both are connected to each other by emotions and reasoning creating a flow of harmony. Damage to one of them destroys the flow and the pony becomes vulnerable to one's bidding. Unless given time to heal. Since Applejack has Rarity’s heart it is now well protected from any tampering, but her mind is not protecting since love is more of a heart thing. “But what can shatter her mind…? A bad review from that Hoity Toity, nah that won’t work he already has a clothes line from her, maybe the Diamond dogs? Nah they are more scared of her than she of them. How about the Canterlot elite…yeah that could help. Dammit! Forgot they follow every whim of Fancy Pants.” As Twilight searched for ways in breaking Rarity’s mind, the Black Rose sunk its roots deeper into the reasoning and morals of Twilight. The roots released a toxic venom of Lust into her mind which flowed directly to her heart. Once again the dream of Fluttershy played in her mind but instead of disgusting her, it gave her an idea… “Of course that’s how. I can’t have the pleasure of having her heart…but I will get my pleasure.” *** In the Carousel Boutique beautiful Rarity feels the rays of the sun tickle her eyelids. How she wants a few more minutes of beauty sleep. But of course her duties won’t wait for her and neither will the customers. So after some time of thinking of the wonderful intimate moment she had last night she finally got up to take a quick shower. Once done she went to check her workbook to see if she had any orders to fill out, and surprisingly it was blank. “Hmm this can’t be right, I better double check.” So Rarity rechecked her workbook and sure enough it's blank. “Ooooh I really do have the off day off, WAHAHA… wait a minute I better check if there are not any Elite Commando guards outside my door.” So she opened the door and nopony in silver armor was there. Now she is more than sure… TIME FOR FUN!!! “To the Spa! Oh and with Fluttershy of course and maybe Applejack. Hmm... maybe not, we might end nuzzling each other and Fluttershy might freak out. *sigh* Guess it’ll be just me and Fluttershy.” Rarity quickly went to her room to spray on some lavender perfume which was a gift by Twilight. The white unicorn placed the closed sign on her shop door and started to canter her way to Fluttershy’s house. Meanwhile Rainbow Dash felt like doing something with somepony besides Applejack, so out of boredom she looked down and spotted Rarity knocking on Fluttershy’s door, somehow she had the feeling the two of them are going to the spa. So after some time of thinking she decided eh why not, can’t be that bad and maybe she could use a massage. As Rarity and Fluttershy trotted to the spa, Fluttershy’s nose picked up a scent she knew and loved all too well. So just as Fluttershy was about to nuzzle the source of the scent, Rainbow Dash landed swiftly before the duo scaring Fluttershy in the process. “Hey guys! Are you two going to the spa?” Rarity brushed some dust off her mane before answering. “We sure are dear. Why is it that you ask?” “Ahh its just I thought maybe if both of you don’t mind…do you have room for one more.” Rarity and Fluttershy look at each other before nodding at Rainbow Dash. “All right, thanks guys! You know I was a little curious about what you two do in the spa but not anymore!” The cyan Pegasus happily exclaimed. After a couple a minutes the trio arrived at the front entrance of the spa and entered inside. Just as Rarity was going to say her trademark phrase every time she comes to the spa, Rainbow Dash placed her hoof over the unicorn’s mouth. “The usual…FOR ALL THREE OF US!! Ho ho I don’t know why I’m so eager to do this.” Yelled the cyan Pegasus. Rarity on the hand or hoof just smiled to Rainbow's enthusiasm. While Fluttershy is trying her best not to get intimately close to Rarity because she smelled of the same lavender perfume Twilight always wears, and Fluttershy loves that scent very much. “Oooh why does Rarity smell like Twilight, I gotta control myself and maybe keep some distance away from Rarity. For her own good and mine too.” *** “Oh great it looks like Ms. Rarity’s shop is closed. Ah guess Ah better make my way to Ms. Twilight’s place. Ah hope that scary dragon is not there because he gives me the heebiedabajeebies.” Big Macintosh said out loud. The red stallion stood in front of door of the library he guessed if he wanted to keep Bon Bon at bay then getting help from Ms. Twilight will be a good start. So just when Big Macintosh was going to knock on the door a voice called out to him, a voice he knew only one mare is capable of having. “Hey Big Macintosh it’s me Lyra, how you doing?” It’s a good thing Big Macintosh is red because he blushed like that scary dragon whenever Rarity is near the scary dragon. “A-A-Ah mighty fine today uhh Ah was going to pick up some books about… ummm… poetry! Yeah poetry.” Lyra’s face shot a smile at Big Macintosh making him feel warm inside. “That’s pretty cool. Well anyway you want to join me for lunch? I just finished practicing a duet with Octavia and she went to have lunch at pony Joe’s instead of the Sugarcube Corner because she misses going there. So how about it, care to join me?” “Am Ah dreaming or is this really happening?” Big Macintosh smiled wide before nodding his head. “Great, let’s go.” Lyra cheerfully beams. “Ah can’t be dreaming…this is real! So real Ah bet Ah won’t run into err…speak of the devil.” The red stallion caught sight of Bon Bon leaving the Sugarcube Corner with her saddlebags full of candy and as he expected she caught sight of the duo. She lifted up her head with dignity while giving Big Macintosh the evil eye and passed them by. “So Big Macintosh don’t you find it pretty cool that Octavia’s husband is an Alicorn with golden wings!” Lyra creating conversation with Big Macintosh starts. “Huh oh…he ha yeah it is pretty cool. But his wings are not really golden like real gold, his feathers are gold colored making them look like they really are golden along with shiny.” Lyra tilted her head in question. “And how do you know this?” Big Macintosh took in a deep breath, it was a good thing she could not hear his rapid heartbeat along with not swallowing the piece of hay he always has with him. “Ah am friends with him…he even let me ride on his back once so Ah can experience flight, it was awesome!” “Whoa… I’m speechless. Oh here we are at Sugarcube Corner, time to eat.” Both the Earth pony and Unicorn entered the restaurant, not knowing they are being watched by a mare who wanted Lyra’s love and maybe for fun make the red stallion suffer. *** “Wow Rarity I can see why you love coming here, that dude gave me an awesome massage while the sauna made my coat shiner.” Rainbow Dash proclaims to Rarity. The Unicorn beams happily at Rainbow Dash while she got into the hot springs with Fluttershy. “Oh great, I forgot my towel I’ll be right back.” Rainbow Dash went to get her towel which she thinks she left it on the massage table. In the relaxing heat of the hot springs Rarity started to doze off into deep sleep because of the relaxation of her muscles. Meanwhile Fluttershy slowly giving in to her urges, starts to inch closer to Rarity, that lavender perfume Rarity wore made her iron will weaker by the second. Ever so softly she nuzzles the unicorn behind the ear and then pulls back to wait for any body movement from Rarity, after a few seconds of no movement she started once again of nuzzling Rarity behind the ear. “Oh yeah do it like that… I like the way you do it. Oooh I love you.” Spoke the Unicorn in her sleep causing Fluttershy to back away from Rarity. Fluttershy then giggled at Rarity’s outburst. “I wonder who she loves. Hmmm, perhaps its Big Macintosh because I remember her giving the stallion a complete makeover.” Rainbow Dash came into the hot springs. Just when her mouth was going to let out some words she spotted Fluttershy nuzzling Rarity on the neck and behind the left ear. “Fluttershy what in the world are you doing!?” Rainbow yells causing Rarity to wake up. “Wha-what happened? *Gasp* Did I leave my mud mask on too long!?” Franticly inquired the white unicorn. “Fluttershy was uhh, she was doing ummm… ahhh.” Rainbow Dash didn’t know how to break the news to Rarity and to add insult to injury Fluttershy starts to widen her eyes creating a face of complete adorableness. “Uhh Fluttershy was preening her feathers the wrong way!” Blurts out Rainbow Dash. “Oh is that all, heh. Well it must be a great deal for you pegasi since you all fly a lot and your feathers must be in tip-top condition. Uh-oh if you girls don’t mind I need to use the ladies room.” After Rarity left the hot springs Rainbow immediately turned towards Fluttershy who hid behind her long pink mane. “Fluttershy why were you nuzz…” Fluttershy suddenly cut off Rainbow Dash. “I don’t have any feelings for Rarity ok…it’s just her perfume is so intoxicating that I had to keep smelling it.” “Sooo you don’t you know... like like Rarity?” “I only like her as a friend just as I like you.” “Oh ok I believe you. Now that I think about it she does wear exotic perfume.” Fluttershy breaths a sigh of relive as Rarity came back. “I can’t thank you enough Rainbow Dash for joining me and Fluttershy.” Rainbow Dash simply smiled as the three of them moved to the last spa treatment. *** “Ah think the hangover should be gone by now, Ah wonder if Big Macintosh is still around so Ah can apologize to him.” Applejack searches the house but only found Granny Smith asleep on her rocking chair, causing her to deduce he must be in town buying some supplies. “Ah could go visit Rarity. No, Ah think today is her spa day. *Sigh* Is there anything Ah can do today?” Just then as if the Great Spirit answered her self-question plea with a swift stroke of his hand, a loud knocking fills her ears. “Hey it must be Big Macintosh back from town.” So when opened the door it wasn’t a red stallion she expected but a golden wing Alicorn. “Hi Applejack. I hope I’m not interrupting anything.” “No need to worry about that sugarcube Ah just finished washing up. So what is it that Ah can help you with?” “Well when I was helping Derpy with the furniture delivery thingy I thought about stopping by and pick up a few apple pies for Octavia, because she’s been having a craving for apple pie but can’t get some because of her busy musical schedule.” “If its apple pie you want then ya came to the right place. Oh and how is Rarity doing today?” Applejack in full trust asks Gold Sky. “I have no clue, sorry.” Replied Gold Sky Applejack let out a deep breath. “It’s cool. So how about you come inside and wait in the living room while Ah bake those pies.” “Well uh… can I help you?” The Alicorn bashfully asks. By instinct she was about to say no, but in seeing that the pony who wants to help is Gold Sky the Alicorn who sees and loves Rarity as a big sister, she thought why not use this moment to bond with him and get to know some stuff about Gold Sky. Because who knows Gold Sky could probably become her future brother-in-law. While in the deepest crevice in her mind she wonders IF. “Yeah of course sugarcube, c’mon.” Both the Applejack and Gold Sky went to the kitchen to bake up some apple goodness. *** Twilight Sparkle in her room busied herself in studying her plan she made for Rarity. “This will work… tell her one little coercion after I spill the beans on her hidden love and if that doesn’t work then I’ll have to resort to brute force.” Twilight got off her bed, trotted over to a chest that’s by the wall, and opened it to take out something she and Princess Luna created. “Dark Matter… haha this collar of Dark Matter will prevent Rarity from channeling her magic to her horn making her powerless. So I can finally move in for the kill…oh yes I mean it.” She licks her lips… before preparing to write a letter to the love of her life. Oh what heinous act is the element of magic capable of doing? --- Chapter.6- “W-w-what do you want Twilight?” The white Unicorn in a voice of complete fear asks Twilight. “Oh Rarity such innocence...” AGAIN do not post any spoilers in the comments!!
