//------------------------------// // Chapter Five, Shadows In The Day // Story: Bubblegum's Adventure // by MLP Sparkle Star //------------------------------// As Rarity Bubblegum Struggle to get along, Bubblegum is trying to think of a cover up answer for how she got to Ponyville if Rarity asks any questions. "So darling, how did you become a princess?" Bubblegum is trying to think of what to say and starts stressing out. "its OK if you don't want to say anything. I understand." Rarity says as she holds Bubblegum's back. So as that moment happens, a pony knocks on the door. "Hello? Is any pony home?" The mysterious voice asks. "Who could that be? Well whoever it is, you should get your cape." Says Rarity as she goes to the door. "Oh hello, sir. Welcome to the carousel boutique. Where everything is chic, unique, and magnifique. How may I help you?" "I wanted to know if there was a, hot pink and neon blue mare here by any chance?" Says the mysterious voice as Bubblegum hides. "Um, nope. Haven't seen a pony who is hot pink and neon blue." Says Rarity as she smiles. "Well, OK then. I will look someplace else." Says the mysterious voice as he casts a spell that would go find Bubblegum. Rarity shuts the door and goes to find Bubblegum. "Who was that?" Says Rarity as she starts freaking out. "I don't know but we need to stay calm." Says Bubblegum as she sees something flying in the air. "Rarity, there's something floating in the air. Like some kind of gas." "Oh my Celestia! That pony was trying to put a spell on you!" "A WHAT!" "We need to get out of here fast!" Bubblegum and Rarity go outside of the boutique to escape and spell follows them. The spell went faster and caught up to them. It went inside Bubblegum's mouth. "RARITY I CAN'T BREATHE!" "I know who to take you to." Bubblegum faints and Rarity picks her up with her horn and takes her to the place she was talking about. When Bubblegum wakes up, she looks around and sees a bunch of crystal purple and pink stuff. "What happened? Am I still alive?" Bubblegum hears Rarity talking to another pony. It sounding like she was saying stuff about Bubblegum. "So she's an alicorn?!" Said the pony Rarity was talking to. "Yes. She didn't tell me how she became an alicorn, but she did get really nervous when I asked her." Says rarity with a confused look on her face. "Maybe I should go talk to her." The pony walks into the room. It was a purple pony and blur violet hair. "So, Your an alicorn! This is so unique! I could write a whole journal, or maybe even a book about you!" "Twilight take it easy on her." Bubblegum finally heard the the purple pony's name, Twilight. "Sorry. I'm just, so excited. So how did you become an alicorn? Were you born one?" Says Twilight as she gets a little too close to her face. "Um, I was born an alicorn. I guess..." "That's, so, COOL! Can I write a paragraph, or something about you?" Says Twilight as she grabs a pen and paper. "Wait, what's your name?" "Oh, my name is, Princess Bubblegum... Yeah, Princess Bubblegum." "My name is Twilight Sparkle. Nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you too."
