//------------------------------// // Vigilante Vixens p1:The four fillies. // Story: Mysterious Mare Do Well:Rise of the Shadowbolt. // by Phoenix Kitten //------------------------------// Warning,the following two chapters are going to be very non essential to the plot(and possibly very short), I just thought you might all like to know what's going on with the Ponyville terror fillies,the CMC, during the story. Also.I totally had to do this.Enjoy a story within a story,and a potential spin off maker. Remember.This is me interrupting the dark with a bit of fun.And because I want to practice writing the CMC. You have been warned. It was Monday afternoon, school had just let out in Ponyville and three young fillies were on their way to Sweet Apple Acres in a small cart being pulled by a fourth member on a scooter. "Thankth for letting me tag along you guyth. It'th been awhile since Applebloom and I thpent thome time together." Twist half shouted over the bizarre buzzing sound caused by Scootaloo's wings. "It's no problem Twist. Any friend of Applebloom's is a friend of ours." Sweetie Belle called over her shoulder as she held onto the earthpony in question seated in front of her. "Besides, it'll be easier to fill her in on what she missed while she was at Zecora's over the weekend." Scootaloo added. "That was an amazing fight in the town square on Saturday." The other two fillies nodded in agreement as they passed under the sign that welcomed ponies to the Apple family orchard, a small chalkboard sat just down the road from it advertising a special on braeburn apples grown in Appleoosa. "A fight? That must've been quite a sight." Applebloom said,"Maybe it's related to the strange mares that visited my mentor and I, Left us wonderin' if our eyes could lie." "I think you've been spending too much time with Zecora. Your accent is slipping, and you're starting to rhyme like she does." Sweetie pointed out. "Am ah? Ah hardly noticed, hah." The pale yellow filly said as she cocked her head. "Riiight..." Scootaloo said as they raced past Big Macintosh and deeper into the orchard. "Maybe stop doing that now." "Stop doin' what?Ah ain't doin' it a lot." "Ugh." Scootaloo groaned while Sweetie and Twist laughed, It wasn't long until they reached the Clubhouse (after an unfortunate run in with Appleblooms older sister that resulted in a five pony pile up.) "Ah told you to take a left! But no, you insisted you were deft." Applebloom shouted at the pegasus filly. Scootaloo blinked and and fushed her face up against Appleblooms. "How can I be something I don't know the meaning of? And stop rhyming!" Before Applebloom could get a word off, Sweetie loudly whispered to Twist. "Usually, in my sisters books, this is where they kiss." Twist chuckled. "And admit that they've alwayth thecretly liked each other." Applebloom and Scootaloo's eyes went wide and they immediately pulled their faces away from each others, blushing immensely. "Me, fall for an earth pony with birds on the brain? Don't make me laugh." Scootaloo said, shooting a look to Applebloom. Applebloom shot a look back before replying. "Hardee har har you two. Now ah believe y'all had some explaining to do." Scootaloo groaned at the rhyme as Sweetie began to recount the events that had occured, with the occasional interruption from Scootaloo to make up a word for how awesome a move was or for Twist to point out something she saw from her position "Y'all got any pictures ah could see? A face to a name is good you'll agree." Applebloom asked after her friends had finished telling her about the fight, "Way ahead and one better." Scootaloo smirked. "The costume store hired Rarity to make costumes for us fillies to wear." "But all the ones they had her make have an eye mask instead of a full mask." Sweetie said. "But all I had to do was ask..." She smiled as she trotted over to the wardrobe Applebloom had built before she started taking lessons from Zecora. The unicorn filly opened the doors and revealed four costumes with full face masks and what looked like a full body, black flight suit. "No way!" Scootaloo beamed as she cantered over and grabbed the flight suit. "Your sister is awesome Sweetie Belle." Sweetie had already put on most of her costume, the mask was sitting behind her head, the hat on the ground in front of her. "Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara think they're the best because they've got their Marvellous Mare and Cat Filly costumes. Let's see how they like the Mini Mare Do Well's." She smirked as she pulled the mask over her face and flipped the hat onto her head. "And the Shadebolt." Scootaloo smiled as she placed her goggles over her eyes. Applebloom watched as Twist put her costume on, recognizing both costumes as the two strange mares from Saturday night. 'So this Mysterious Mare Do Well is fightin' to protect Ponyville from the Shadowbolt?' She thought to herself. 'Looks like Zecora and I were played for a dolt.' With a shrug she put on her costume and stood with her friends, three replicas of Ponyville's mystery mare and her opponent, uniting to fight two of the most well known heroines in Equestrian comic history. "Hey Twist, care to join us in a Cutie Mark Crusader cheer?" Scootaloo asked the costumed mare closest to her. "Would I?" She asked, the excitement all to obvious in her voice. "But we're not the Cutie Mark Crusaders right now." Sweetie Belle said from between Twist and Applebloom. "We're the vigilante crusaders." After a brief squabble over the name the four fillies all reared up and shouted. "Vigilante vixens! YAY!!!!!" To be concluded...
