A Truth or A Lie
It was a beautiful sunny day in Ponyville. The sky was a brilliant blue with just a few pale white clouds in the sky. Sweetie looked towards the nearby lake. The sunlight reflected off it, making the water shimmer and sparkle. Her gaze shifted towards her next destination, Sweet Apple Acres. Even from where she was, she could make out a little red dot ploughing a field. Sweetie smiled as she thought about what she and her friends would be doing tonight.
Her thoughts were interrupted as two certain ponies caught her attention, Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon. Her two least favourite ponies.
"What do you guys want?" Sweetie Belle asked as she waited to be made fun of by the two bullies.
"We wanted to see if you wanted to hang out with us." Diamond Tiara said. Sweetie Belle frowned, thinking they were trying to trick her.
"It'll be so much fun." Silver Spoon said smiling.
"Why would you want to hang out with me?" Sweetie Belle asked, still trying to work out what they wanted with her.
"Well, you do have your cutie mark, and I've got to say that its totally awesome." Diamond Tiara said, while pointing at Sweetie Belle's cutie mark.
"Yeah! It's like totally cool." Silver Spoon agreed. Sweetie Belle looked at her flank to inspect her cutie mark. It was a jet black music note with a light red heart surrounding it. She smiled as she thought it.
"I guess your right, my cutie mark is pretty cool." Sweetie Belle said, still looking at her flank. "But I'm going to Applebloom's house, so I can't hang out with you." She said turning to face the two bullies.
"Why hang out at the blank flank's house, when you could hang out with us." Silver Spoon said, putting her hoof around Sweetie Belle's shoulder to keep her from leaving.
"Because she's my best friend, Scootaloo too. And even though I have my cutie mark I'm still a Cutie Mark Crusader." Sweetie Belle said smiling. "Once a Crusader, always a Crusader."
"Aww, that was such a nice thing to say." Diamond Tiara mocked. " 'Once a Crusader, always a Crusader.' So sweet."
"Will you guys just please leave me alone?" Sweetie Belle said, squeaking as her voice rose slightly.
"We will, but we've got something to show you first." Silver Spoon said, as she pulled Sweetie Belle towards the side of the school house. Sweetie Belle decided to just go see what they had to show her, after all it couldn't take that long. As the side of the school house become closer Sweetie Belle noticed a little bag. When they got there Diamond Tiara picked up the bag and took out a small tape recorder.
"What's that for?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"When I was walking home yesterday, I heard Applebloom and Scootaloo talking about you, so I decided to record them." Diamond Tiara said frowning. "And I'm really sorry. What they said was really mean."
Sweetie Belle looked at the recorder. She didn't know what to do. If she listens to the recorder then she might find out what her friends really think of her, but if she doesn't listen then she may never find out the truth.
"Play the darn thing!" Sweetie Belle said harshly.
"As you wish." Diamond Tiara said smiling darkly. She picked up the tape recorder and played it.

"I can't believe they would say that about me." Sweetie Belle said, pacing around Diamond Tiara's room.
"Nether can I. Why would they say such mean things about you?" Diamond Tiara asked.
"I don't know. I thought we were friends. B-but I guess not!" Sweetie Belle said, trying to fight back tears.
"We could get them back." Silver Spoon suggested.nnn
"How?" Sweetie Belle asked, still trying to fight back tears.
"By making fun of them. Calling them blank flanks, pulling pranks on them." Diamond Tiara said to Sweetie Belle.
"I don't know, it seems kind of mean." Sweetie Belle said.
"They were mean first, I think they deserve it." Silver Spoon said, stomping one of her hooves on the ground.
Sweetie Belle looked from Diamond Tiara to Silver Spoon. 'Maybe their right, Applebloom and Scootaloo should pay.' Sweetie belle thought to herself.
She sat there for a minute, but finally said, "I'm in."
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________
"Ah wonder were Sweetie Belle is." Applebloom said, looking at the clock.
"Me too. She's almost never late for a sleep over. She's usually the first one here." Scootaloo said as she looked out the window.
"Do ya think she's gotten hurt?" Applebloom asked.
"I don't know. Maybe she's got to finish last minute chores." Scootaloo suggested.
"She usually finishes her chores right after school." Applebloom shuddered. It was starting to get dark, and Applebloom knew Sweetie Belle wasn't suppose to be walking around Ponyville at night. "What if she got mugged? Or what if she fell in a hole and broke all her bones? What if she she got foalnaped?"
"Those are all 'what ifs,' Applebloom." Scootaloo pointed out. "I'm sure she's fine."
"Ah know, your probably right," Applebloom said, still staring out the window.
"I know for a fact I'm right. So don't worry." Scootaloo hugged Applebloom. After Scootaloo let go, she looked out the window.
"Ah won't worry. But where in the hay is she?" Applebloom asked.
Scootaloo shrugged, "I don't know she was suppose to be here hours ago." Scootaloo yawned. "And I'm starting to get tired."
"Me too." Applebloom agreed. "Maybe it wouldn't hurt to get a little shuteye while we wait." As Applebloom said this, both she and Scootaloo drifted of to sleep. But then there was a sound that both, Scootaloo and Applebloom looking forward to.
'Knock knock'
At that sound both, Scootaloo and Apple Bloom sat up. They both jumped up and down, until Applejack called them.
"That has to be Sweetie Belle." Scootaloo yelled. And both her and Applebloom ran down the stairs as fast as their little legs would carry them.

A few hours earlier
It was dark, and Sweetie Belle was at Diamond Tiara's house. They were coming up with a plan, a plan of sweet revenge. They were mixing different things to gather in a big pot, such as, eggs, dirt, pasta, rotten milk, and finally, the most important ingredient, glue. The purpose of the nasty goo was to accidentally dump it all over Applebloom and Scootaloo.
"It smells so gross." Sweetie Belle complained.
"Well its going to smell even worse once we let it sit out for a while." Diamond Tiara manage to say as she coughed because of the bad smell.
Silver Spoon gaged at the idea of the smell getting worse. "It all ready smells awful, why does it have to sit out?"
"Because we have to let all of the ingredients sink in, and we need to let the CMC know that Sweetie Belle is with us." Diamond Tiara said. "We need to make fun of them first, then we'll save this goo for last."
"D-Diamond Tiara?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"What?" Diamond Tiara asked harshly.
"I don't think I want to do this any more, I think we're going to far." Sweetie Belle said softly.
"We're going to far?" Diamond Tiara started to raise her voice. "They were mean to you and your just going to let them go. Forgive them, and then act like it never happened?"
"Y-yes." Sweetie Belle studdered.
"To bad, so sad. Your going to help me be mean to Scootaloo and Applebloom!" Diamond Tiara said, raising her voice even higher.
"Well what if I don't?!" Sweetie Belle asked, raising her voice too, but it cracked in the most adorable way.
"I'm not going to make you do it." Diamond Tiara lowered her voice. "But what happens when Applebloom and Scootaloo are mean to you? What happens when they stop being your friend because you have your cutie mark?"
"I don't know." Sweetie Belle said, lowering her head and her voice to barely a whisper.
"So does that mean your still in?" Silver Spoon asked, looking at Sweetie Belle.
Sweetie Belle nodded. "I-I guess."
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
When Applebloom and Scootaoo got to the end of the stairs, they both looked at the door, but they did not see the unicorn they expected. It was Rarity, Sweetie Belle's older sister. Scootaloo and Apple Bloom looked around Rarity, to see if anypony else was there, and to a wave of relief, there stood Sweetie Belle.
Applebloom hugged Sweetie Belle as hard as she could. "Were have ya been? Ah've been so worried."
"I just had a little bit of homework, that's all." Sweetie Belle said softly, not returning the hug.
Scootaloo smiled at Sweetie Belle. "Applebloom has been so worried, that she started coming up with sick fantasies of what might of happen to you." Scootaloo moved closer to Sweetie Belle. "And she really started to get me worry too." She said as she hugged Sweetie Belle as well.
Rarity cleared her voice. "Now Sweetie darling, don't be getting too dirty. And try not to strain your voice."
"Why can't Sweetie strain her voice? Ah'm not saying she should, Ah'm just asking." Applebloom blurted out.
"Well, haven't ya heard, Sweetie Belle's gonna perform with the Pony tones." Applejack butted in.
Scootaloo jumped and fluttered her little wings, lifting a few meters off the ground. "Really? Because that would be so awesome!"
Sweetie Belle nodded. She gave Rarity a hug and said. "Bye big sis."
''Good night darling." Rarity said, in her fancy voice, as she headed for the door. "Sweetie Belle, remember what I told you."
"I will Rarity." Sweetie Belle said, waving to her sister as she walked out the door.
"So....... what do ya want to do first?" Applebloom asked Sweetie Belle.
Sweetie Belle shrugged. "I don't know."
"Why don't we go play the board game I brought?" Scootaloo suggested. "Or we could have a pillow fight?"
"That would be awesome," Applebloom said. "Race ya up stairs." And at that, her and Scootaloo ran up stairs. Sweetie Belle walked slowly up the stair, still debating on what to do. When she got up there, she was met by a pillow to her face.
"You lost the race, Sweetie Belle, and you know what that means." Scootaloo said, with a sinister smile, as she walked towards Sweetie Belle, with a pillow in her mouth. Scootaloo hit Sweetie Belle on her head with the pillow, but Sweetie Belle just sat there, with her head and ears down.
Applebloom looked at Sweetie Belle. "Are ya okay Sweetie?"
Sweetie Belle shook her head. "N-no."
"What's wrong?" Scootaloo asked.
Sweetie Belle looked up at Scootaloo and Applebloom. "You want to know whats wrong?" Scootaloo and Applebloom both nodded. "What's wrong is that I have to hang out with blank flanks." Sweetie Belle said in a harsh voice.
"How could ya say something so mean?" Applebloom asked, not believing her own ears.
Sweetie Belle stood up. "You were mean first, I know you don't want to be my friend anymore, so just admit it."Sweetie Belle said, tears swelling in her eye's.
"What are you talking about? "Scootaloo asked, standing up too.
Sweetie Belle was getting so mad that her face started to turn red. "Don't play dumb! I know what you said about me. I heard it with my own two ears. You said you didn't want to be my friend anymore. You guys said that you never even liked me!" Sweetie Belle was crying now.
"That's a lie!" Applebloom yelled.
"You know what? I have better things to do then sit here and argue with lying blank flanks. I'm leaving!" Sweetie Belle ran down stairs, and there was a big slam of the door.
"What was that all about?" Scootaloo asked.
"Ah don't know. But somepony had to have told Sweetie Belle that we don't like her." Applebloom said, dropping to the floor.
"Okay, so think, who would want to ruin our friendship?" Scootaloo asked.

Great story.
4057321 . The tape recording will be shown near the end of the story. So you'll just have to wait.
*Waiting song from Jeopardy"
4057343 hahaha. When I read your comment I couldn't stop laughing.
Thanks.
4057413 welcome.
Great start, can't wait to see more!
Nice story, I would have liked a bit more detail though.
Sweetie Belle changing her colours, and siding with Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon? Gonna follow this.
4057413 I'm sorry but I'm think about not showing the tape recording. I can't really seem to find a place in the story to show it.
Could be an interesting story but I will wait to see the other part... Your writing skills sure had improved since the other story!
4058549 thanks.
I think that your idea of having it at the end is great. I want to private message you to avoid spoilers if you choose this storyline.
Slack? SLACK!?
NEVER!
This story has a cute concept!
It's a nice opening! 
I'll look forward to more chapters!
the code to break line is [hr] you can use to replace the _____ in case you were wondering. Not sure if you were just not aware of the code or just went for style, nothing more.
Oh, right. RRAAAHH!
