The Pony Guide to Chemistry

The Chores and Organization.

Toxic had bounded out of the door and nearly crashed into two other ponies. He arrived at an incredible velocity unfortunately, he crashed into the door. He gathered himself back together before a brilliant white unicorn with a deep purple mane opened the door. "May I help you, sir?" She asked, looking at the pegasus with a messed up mane.

"Oh um, yes. I need a new lab-coat and seeing as how this is a boutique you could probably make one for me." He replied nervously.

"Dearie, don't be nervous." She reassured him. "So, where are you from?"

"I'm from Canterlot..." He said as they walked into the building.

"Canterlot?! I've met only one other person in Ponyville from Canterlot! And a Pegasus from there as well?!" She burst into excitement. "Oh, where are my manners!? I'm Rarity, darling." She stuck out her hoof gracefully.

"Toxic Boom." He stuck out his now vibrating hoof.

The process of making the lab-coat took around two hours. Toxic was relieved to leave the building. "Be sure to come back now!" Rarity yelled out in a slight song-like tone. Meanwhile, Cyanide and Ecstasy were trotting down the cobblestone road peacefully. Suddenly, a wagon attached to a scooter was bounding toward them. A voice came from the filly driving the vehicle. "MOVE!" The fillies jumped out of the way and he scooter came to a screeching halt. "Hey, blank flanks!" A country accented filly called out.

"I'm sorry, what?" Cyanide rose back up. She was coated in dirt. "What is a blank flank?"

"Blank flanks! Ponies that ain't got no cutie mark!" The Country filly replied.

"Maybe we should ask them to join our group!" A unicorn filly got out of the wagon and called.

"Maybe they're with Diamond Tiara, Sweetie Belle!" A Pegasus filly yelled back.

"Who are you ponies?" Asked Ecstasy, her voice was her ever monotonous tone.

"We are the Cutie Mark Crusaders!" They yelled in unison.

"Ecstasy and Cyanide." She replied.

"Cyanide and Ecstasy!" Cyanide corrected.

The fillies talked for quite a while. The Cutie mark crusaders invited the sisters back to the club house. "So, how does one enter the organization." Asked Ecstasy.

"You gotta show toughness!" Said the Pegasi. "Honesty!" The Earth pony replied. "And take an oath not to give our secrets to Diamond Tiara and company!" Said the final filly, the Unicorn.

They arrived at the hut. The CMC rolled out some sleeping bags from a closet. "It's getting dark. We'll induct you in the morning." Said the Pegasi.

"So, we're gonna join!?" Cyanide asked excitedly.

"Duh!" The Earth pony replied.

They all fell asleep, all but Ecstasy. She lied awake, thinking. Thinking about what would have happened if she were never born. Would somebody take her place? Or would she never existed in either form? It was a shame she never spoke up. She was a very philosophical filly. Very few of her kind existed. She then started to wonder if she died. She never spoke so she thought that nobody would miss her. She sighed and slowly drifted off to sleep.

The next morning Ecstasy was awoken suddenly by her dimwitted sister. This was one of the few times Ecstasy rose her voice. "Why?! Every time we sleep over some where, you pull this!" She roared. Cyanide's eyes were large. Larger than the apples on the trees outside. The other fillies nearly had heart attacks from the change of sound in the hut.

"I-I'm sorry sis." Cyanide apologized.

"No, just no!" Ecstasy rage subsided. "I'm going home."

Ecstasy walked the three miles back to Ponyville. She walked along alone, until she was approached by two fillies. One pink and one gray. She was harassed by these two ponies until she reached her home. There was a note pinned to the wall. It read. "Cyanide and Ecstasy or any other pony. I will be at the coffee shop across from the house. -Toxic." Ecstasy ignored the note and dragged herself upstairs. She flopped on the bed and went back to sleep.
