On the beach, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and April were relaxing on beach chairs while soaking up some rays. Casey was next to them doing some stretches.
“Ah, this is the life.” April said, while relaxing.
“For real.” Rainbow Dash agreed.
“I may like it on the ice, but on the sand is where I can really relax.” Casey admitted, as he finished his stretching.
Applejack sighed in relaxation, “Summer. Ya know, there's nothin' like kickin' back and enjoyin' the-” she was cut off by Rarity who popped in and cried.
“Complete Disaster!”
The girls and Casey looked at the fashion girl, as Rainbow spoke, “Are you ok, Rarity?”
Rarity began bawling, “My earring's gone! A one-of-a-kind, irreplaceable work of art! I should know. I made it. I was reapplying my SPF when I realized my ear was... naked! I don't know what to do! It meant so much to me! And... and...” April cut her off.
“Rarity, take a chill pill.”
“Yeah, girl. Don't bust a gut.” Casey added.
“If you want our help, just ask.” Applejack added.
“Oh, would you mind? I took the liberty of getting some equipment. “ she picked up five metal detectors with one of them looking fancy.
“Awesome.” Rainbow Dash took one.
“This should be fun.” April admitted, before taking one.
“Yeah. You never know what you're going to find on the beach.” Casey took one.
“So let's get to it, ya'll.” Applejack took the last one leaving Rarity with the fancy one.
So the group was walking the beach with their metal detectors on scanning for anything metal that could be Rarity's lost earring. Applejack lifted one of her headphones up and spoke, “Any luck?”
April answered, “Not yet.
“I got nothing either, yo.” Casey replied.
“Not so f— Wait! I got something!” Rainbow gasped, as her metal detector was beeping.
“Could it be?” Rarity gasped with hope.
They started digging in the sand, and Rainbow pulled up a single ice skate, much to everyone's confusion, “Close but not quite.” Rainbow told her.
“Who buries a single ice skate out on the beach?” April asked rhetorically.
Applejack called out, “Hold yer horses! Now I'm beepin'!” she used her shovel and combined with her magical strength dug a big hole.
April reached in, “I think this time it's...” she pulled out a horseshoe, “Another false alarm.”
“Well, not to worry. We've got plenty of time.” Rarity said nervously.
So they spread out to cover more ground, with each one turning up with something else. As Casey was walking along the beach he heard his metal detector beep, “Hey, girls, I think I got something!” he called, until he looked ahead and saw the metal detector was aimed right at Fugitoid's leg. Fugitoid gave him an annoyed look, “Will you point that metal detector away from me?”
“Sorry, Fuge.” Casey said, as he walked in another direction.
An hour passed, and the group stood next to a pile of junk, and Rarity was at her wits end, “I can't believe this! We've combed the entire beach and found nothing! Nothing! I'm sorry I've wasted your day.” she told the group in regret.
“Are you kiddin'?!” Applejack asked rhetorically, “We haven't even done half the beach! Who knows what else we'll find?”
“Yeah, and some of this junk actually looks pretty cool.” April admitted, while looking the stuff over.
“What even is this?” Rainbow held up an old school cellphone, and laughed, “The sand is full of mysteries!”
“Yeah. It's like a treasure hunt.” Casey put in.
“But what about when the sun goes down?” Rarity asked, and sniffled, “I guess it's a lost cause.”
Rainbow hating to see Rarity depressed suddenly got an idea, “Hold that thought! And this,” she handed Rarity the old model cellphone. Rainbow using her magic speed ran circles all around the junk pile before stopping before them while holding an earring out, “Ha! Got it! How's that for service?”
Applejack, April, and Casey looked at Rarity seeing she didn't look too happy, “I'm guessing that's not the one, yo?” Casey asked.
“It's... not,” Rarity confessed, “But thank you. All of you. I had a wonderful time just the same. Uh, I'll just take one last sweep,” she put her metal detector headphones on until something fell form her hair and landed on the sand. She picked it up and saw it was the earring she was looking for, “Ooh! Found it! Heh-heh.” she laughed sheepishly.
“You mean it's been in your hair this whole time?” April asked sounding irked.
“How silly of me, it must've got caught in my hair.” Rarity continued to sound sheepish.
“We did all that and it was with you the whole time?!” Rainbow exclaimed.
“Well, it's not so bad. I mean we did find all this neat junk.” Rarity tried reasoning with them.
“Girls, I think Rarity needs to be taught a lesson.” Casey told the three with a smirk.
“I reckon you're right, Casey.” Applejack agreed while grinning.
The four approached Rarity bearing sinister expressions, “Sweeties, darlings, lovies, please don't look at me that way.” Rarity said, as she was getting frightened.
The four grabbed Rarity by her arms and legs and carried her to the water, “Unhand me at once! This is so undignified!” Rarity demanded, while trying to struggle, but to no avail.
The four began swinging Rarity back and forth, “One...” April began.
“Two...” Casey counted.
“Three!” Rainbow and Applejack called, as the four released sending Rarity landing in the water with a splash.
Rarity popped out of the water with her hair soaked, “Ok, I guess I deserved that.” the other four laughed at how silly Rarity looked when all wet.
