It was Monday in Ponyville. The Cutie Mark Crusaders were getting ready for the first day of the new school year, but today, they were bringing guests. It had been so long since the last time the Paw Patrol visited Equestria. The first time they were here, the pups fought alongside Cozy Glow to stop a demon named; Leon. Now, they were back to socialize while on vacation.
"Alright, welcome to the Ponyville schoolhouse!" Applebloom said, leading the crusaders and pups. The Paw Patrol was in awe at the sight, except for a certain Mixed Breed pup.
"Doesn't seem that exciting to me." Rocky said. "It's barely looks like it could fit a whole class."
"Don't judge a book by its cover, Rocky." Skye told him. "I've seen it plenty of times on the show, and it's cute!"
"I bet their lunch food is very delicious."
"Rubble, you're always thinking of food." Cozy said.
"Give the pup a break. He lived on the streets before he met us." Chase pointed out. When the group arrived, foals were everywhere. They were playing at the playground or talking to each other, and Marshall looked around.
"Hey, where's the teacher?" The Dalmatian asked.
"You mean Ms. Cheerlie? Inside getting ready, probably." Sweetie Belle answered. "Class doesn't start until eight."
Zuma looks at a watch on his paw. "7:20? But I thought you said you wew wunning late."
"Late for being early." Sweetie Belle responded with a coy tone.
"Heeeeeeeey!" Zuma started with a 'you tricked us' undertone before he suddenly looked down at his watch. "When did I stawt weawing a watch?" The others shrugged in response.
"Everypony, look!" The group turned to see that the foals on the playground were heading their way. "It's the Paw Patrol!" The foals surrounded the pups and began rapidly asking questions. Can I pet you? What's Earth like? Do you love your job? Some of the foals started petting the pups and giving them scratches behind the ears, which they enjoyed.
"Hello everypony!" All of the pups and foals turned to see a pink filly with a purple and white mane, wearing a tiara. "I would like to say that I'm glad we're all here, and I have great news: my mother is no longer the head of the school board." The foals cheered. Rocky, on the other hand, stared towards the new filly with wide eyes and a gaping mouth.
"Who's that potranca?" Tracker asked.
"That's Diamond Tiara; the richest filly in school." Scootaloo said. "She used to be our biggest rival, but now she's a great friend." Rocky continued to stare at Diamond Tiara as his ears drooped and he smiled goofy. At that moment, his heart started beating rapidly. Cozy noticed this and got concerned.
"Uh Rocky? Are you okay?"
"Eh oobe kay to irah soob..." Rocky responded.
"What?" Rubble asked, a bit weirded out.
"Uhhh duuuuh le tooby dae." The pups, Cozy and CMC's looked at each other in confusion. Diamond Tiara continued to greet the other students, but Rocky was more focused on looking at the filly's beautiful Cornflower Blue eyes. Finally, she came over to the group.
"Hi girls." Diamond said to the crusaders.
"Hi Diamond." They replied. "Oh, by the way, we'd like you to meet Cozy Glow." Sweetie Belle said and pointed to the pegasus.
"It's great to finally meet you, Cozy." Diamond said.
"Thanks. Glad to know that you're a very kind pony." Cozy replied. Suddenly, a grey filly with a white mane and blue glasses came in.
"Hey Cozy," she said. "Isn't funny how when you were evil nobody liked you, but then you defeated a demon and saved us and now we all love you?"
"Uh... yeah. Thanks so much for bringing that up." Diamond ignored the grey filly's comment.
"Sorry about Silver Spoon." She said before walking to the pups. "And this must be the Paw Patrol." Cozy introduced each of the pups until there was one left. "So, you must be Rocky the Recycling Pup. I heard a lot about you."
"Eh, kdayla shoola ka ooby da."
"Oh, is that some new language?" Diamond asked with a smile. "Let me try. Uh, shoobilla ka ooby day?"
"Eh kooby day."
"Kooby day?"
"Eh kooby day."
"Kooby day."
"Eshilla doo la kooby day."
"Matodor el kooby day." Diamond giggled. "What a funny language. I need to learn more about this."
"Ally boo boo." Rocky said.
"Heh heh. That's Adventurian for you." Rubble said. "H-He says 'It's nice to meet you'." He, Marshall, Cozy and Chase carried Rocky away.
"Well, ally boo boo to you too!" Diamond called. The group brought Rocky to the back of the school to see what was wrong with him.
"Rocky! Snap out of it!" Chase said as Rocky continued speaking gibberish.
"Hold on, I know what to do." Marshall went to a nearby pond and scooped up some water, then he came back and splashed it on Rocky's face... which did nothing. "What the!?"
"Yikes. He's not even reacting with his aquaphobia." Cozy said.
"Wait, let me try." Chase walked over to Rocky and began to slap him. "SNAP. OUT. OF. IT. ROCKY!" The mixed breed opened his eyes and panted. "Are you okay, Rocky?"
"No. No. I'm not." Rocky said. "I... I... I... zinged." He began to smile.
During class, it was free time, and Diamond Tiara was talking to Silver Spoon.
"Those puppies were so cute!" Silver Spoon said. "I really can't believe the Crusaders got them to come to our school. Hey, you notice that grey pup?"
"Yeah, he talked a little weird." Diamond replied. "But still, Rocky's kinda cute and funny." The filly looked out the window to see Rocky was talking to some of the other pups, along with Cozy Glow, but she couldn't tell what they were talking about. "Well, it'll be lunch time soon. I can get to know him a little better."
"That's a good idea."
"Zing? What's a zing?" Cozy asked in confusion.
"It means that Rocky fell in love." Skye answered before turning to Rocky. "With who?"
"Diamond Tiara."
"WHAT???"
"No way!" Marshall said. "I-I don't know if it'll work."
"Uh, hello?" Skye said. "Spike is a dragon, and he's dating both Rarity and Applebloom. Not to mention, Spike and Applebloom have a kid."
"You know, Skye has a point." Chase said. "If a pony can date a dragon, why can't a pony date a pup?"
"But I don't know anything about dating." Rocky reminded his friends. "What do I do?" The pups look at each other, Cozy gets an idea.
"Okay, just ask her out." Cozy said. "First off, remember to smile."
"Oh, and ask her where her parts are from!" Rubble added.
"Hmmm." Marshall thought for a moment. "Tell her that if she had wrappings, they'd look nice."
"Like a mansion." Skye added.
"Compliment her." Tracker said. "Potranca, you are hermosa."
"Like a delicious apple." Rubble continued. Everest stepped forward.
"Now, pretend I'm Diamond Tiara. Hit it!" Rocky stood for a moment, then he began to speak rapidly.
"Your delicious apple wrapping are in a nice mansion. Would you like to see my parts?" Cozy and the other pups just stared, until Zuma face-pawed himself. "Oh it's no use, guys! I just don't know what to do!"
RING! The school bell rang, signaling that it was time for lunch as the foals came running out. The pups saw Diamond Tiara walk out with Silver Spoon and sit at a table.
"Hold on," Marshall said. "I'll help you ask her out."
"NO! WAIT!!!" Rocky yelled, but Marshall ignored him. "Oh liver links." Marshall walked over to the fillies and immediately got their attention.
"Oh, hi Marshall." Diamond Tiara said with a smile. "Can we help you?"
"Yes." The Dalmatian motioned Rocky to come over. He hesitated at first, but came. "Rocky would like to tell you something." Diamond turned to Rocky and listened.
"Uh... D'oh la ooby ta!" Rocky said.
"Oh, it's that 'Adventurian' language again."
"Hold on Di," Silver Spoon said. "I'll try to figure out what he's saying." Rocky continued to talk in gibberish. "Uh huh, uh huh. I think Rocky is trying to say that he'd like to... hit you with a rake."
"Oh my gosh!" Diamond said with a hoof over her mouth.
"NO!!! Gadoobla de baloosi!" Rocky yelled.
"Okay, um... try to guess your weight."
"What!?" Diamond shouted slightly offended.
"NO!!!!! Argumantia du seevy-"
"Oh wait, he wants to take you..."
"Ton da rate!"
"On a date!" Rocky smiled and fell over as Silver Spoon finally got it right.
"Wow." Diamond was surprised. "Is that true, Rocky?"
"Y-Yes." Rocky answered sweating. Diamond smiled.
"Sure, I'd love to."
"GASP! What???" Rocky was not expecting that.
"Today's only half day at school, so we can do it after lunch if you want." Rocky nodded in excitement. "Don't be late, cutie." Diamond said before petting Rocky and walking off with a smile. Rocky had never felt more proud.
"Great job Rocky!" Skye said as she and the other pups began to compliment him.
As the students left the school to head home, the CMC's were heading out when they saw Diamond Tiara with Rocky. Applebloom trotted over to them.
"Hey guys. What're ya'll doin'?" She asked.
"Sorry we can't talk, Bloom." Diamond said. "We're on our first date!"
"And right now, we're gonna go for a walk in the park." Rocky continued.
"Oh, well you two have fun then."
"Thanks Applebloom!" Diamond and Rocky ran off to began their together, leaving Applebloo with a stunned look.
"Wow. First, Scootaloo starts dating Cuphead, Spike dates me and Rarity, and now Diamond Tiara's going out with Rocky. What's next?"
Later, Diamond and Rocky were sitting on top of a hill and enjoying the view.
"Wow Diamond. This is amazing."
"Yeah." Diamond replied. "On nice days like this, sometimes I would come up here to admire the sunset as Celestia lowers the Sun and Luna raises the Moon. But now, Princess Twilight does both."
"Hmmm. You know, I've always dreamed of finding my 'special somepony', as you call it." Rocky said. "But I never thought it would be... well, a pony." Diamond's face turned into a look of worry. "What's wrong?"
"My mother is very strict." Diamond answered. "She would never be ok with this."
"Don't worry about her, whoever she is." Rocky said. "Parents don't decide who's the right date for their kids. It's THEIR choice." Diamond knew Rocky was right.
"You know what? I couldn't agree more!" Diamond exclaimed. "If my mother doesn't approve of this, she can kiss it!" Rocky laughed, but was cut by surprise when he felt Diamonds lips against his. Rocky just closed his eyes and leaned into the kiss. His heart was truly filled with joy.
Meanwhile, Rubble was running through the park, thinking to himself. "I'm not sure that the advice we gave Rocky was good enough. I can't even get the courage to ask out Robyn." The Bulldog remembered that Diamond didn't seem to mind the way Rocky was acting, and really seemed to like him. "Oh, we did our best. He's probably having fun." Little did Rubble know, because he was so busy talking to himself, there was a mare far ahead of him. At the last second, Rubble looked ahead and was surprised as he skidded to a halt. "Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry! Are you okay Ms. Cookie Crumbles?" Rubble asked, thinking the mare was Rarity's mother.
"Cookie Crumbles?" The mare turned, revealing it to have grayish pink coat, a magenta mane, a raised snout, and a diamond ring for a cutie mark. "Do I look anything like that underclass hick of a mare to you? Anything at all?"
"O-O-Oh, I-I'm sorry ma'am." Rubble stammered. "You just kinda looked like her from a distance. My name's: Rubble, by the way. Who are you?"
"I am Spoiled Rich." The mare said with a smile. "The most powerful mare in Ponyville. And don't forget that."
"Spoiled Rich?" Rubble asked. "I think I heard that name before." The pup thought to himself for a moment. "Oh yeah, I heard about you when me and the rest of the Paw Patrol were talking with the crusaders."
"Paw Patrol?" Spoiled asked with a raised eyebrow. "You mean you're from that group that helped the filly; Cozy Glow?"
"Yes, she's a good friend of mine." To Rubble's confusion, Spoiled started laughing.
"This is pure gold! What kind of flea-bitten beasts would make friends with a troublesome mistake like her?"
"GASP!" Rubble was appalled, and started to get angry. "Hey! You can't talk about my friends like that!"
"Well, this shouldn't really be a surprise when it comes to naïve creature's like you." Spoiled grinned. "You're worse than those three fillies who poisoned my daughter's mind. That just shows it."
"Show's what!?"
"You mutts are too revolting and are mindless animals. Especially considering that the youngest are always the worst." Spoiled continued. "Maybe you should've been Put Down when you had the chance. How does that sound, Rubby?"
"P-Put... D-Down?" Spoiled's last insult was too much for poor Rubble to bare. He looked like he was about to cry. Nearby, behind a tree, Bon Bon was holding back an angry Lyra.
"LET ME AT HER!!! I'M GONNA TEACH THAT BITCH A LESSON!!!"
"Stop Lyra! We're gonna get sued!" Also, on a nearby hill, Diamond heard voices and turned to see what was going on.
"Hey, Rocky." Diamond started. "Isn't that Rubble over there?" Rocky turned to look.
"I wonder what he's doing here." He then noticed Spoiled. "Hey, who's that?"
"Oh no." Diamond said. "It's my mother; Spoiled Rich."
"That's your mom?"
"Yes." Diamond looked ahead again and gasped. "She's... She's... She's picking on Rubble!"
"WHAT!?!?" Rocky looked to see a sad Rubble. Anger started to boil inside him. "I have to stop her!"
"Be careful, Rocky." Rocky ran down the hill until he was a few feet away from the rude mare.
"HEY!!!!!" Spoiled turned to see a very peeved Mixed Breed Pup.
"Oh, you must be that mutt I was told about." Spoiled said. "The one who thinks he can go out with MY daughter?"
"That's right! And you better leave Rubble alone!"
"Oh, so you know this pup as well?" Spoiled asked.
"Yes! He's my friend!"
"Seriously? You call this worthless creature your friend?" Laughed Spoiled.
"I'm. Not. Worthless!" Rubble said, regaining his anger.
"Really? It doesn't seem that way to m-" scratch! Spoiled felt a sharp pain against her cheek and fell to the ground. The snobby mare put a hoof to her face and looked at it, and to her shock, she saw blood. Spoiled turned back to Rocky and saw some blood on his claws. "W-What?!"
"Listen here, you ungrateful slob!" Rocky yelled. "Nobody, and I mean NOBODY messes with my friends, and that includes Rubble! He may be the youngest, but he's also the most confident and reliable pup there could be! And you have no right to treat him so badly!" Rubble smiled at what Rocky said. Spoiled however, stood up and glared at the Mixed Breed.
"HOW DARE YOU RUIN MY BEAUTIFUL FACE!!!!!!!!" She screamed. "My Diamond should not be going out with a beast like you!" Rocky took a step back in fear. "I suppose I'll have to put you down myself. When I'm through with you, that tubby blob of fur is next." Rubble began to growl and bare his teeth. The Bulldog started pawing at he ground, which got Spoiled's attention. "H-Hey... W-What're you doing?" She asked nervously.
"Oh, not much." Rubble answered with a glare. "Just about to show you what this 'tubby blob of fur' can really do."
"H-Hey, s-stop kidding around." Spoiled was starting to show fear. "Y-You look too fat to take me on."
"If you don't want to fight Rubble, Spoiled," Rocky began. "Then you better get out of here before it gets ugly." Spoiled turned to him in anger.
"Grrrr. You won this time, mutt. But we'll meet again one of these days, and when we do-" Rubble let out a loud bark, causing Spoiled to jump and run off screaming.
"Are you okay, Rubble?" Rocky asked.
"I'm fine. I can't believe you stood up to her like that."
"Well, when you mess with a pup, you get the claws." Rocky said. Diamond Tiara approached the two pups. "Oh. Diamond, I'm sorry I scratched your mom like that."
"Don't be. She deserved it." Diamond said. "Rocky, you're a very sweet pup, sticking up for Rubble like that. I don't think I could've chosen anyone better for me to go out with."
"Thanks Diamond." Rocky licked her on the side of her face, causing her to giggle before they embraced each other and Rubble smiled, knowing that Rocky and Diamond Tiara will be happy together.
"I can't believe it!" Spoiled said while walking through Ponyville with her head low. "I got scared by a pup, scratched by one, and now one of them is dating my daughter! How could this get any worse?" Spoiled bumped into something and shook her head, and then mare then looked at the object in confusion. It was some blue police cruiser, but when she looked up, she saw a German Shephard pup with a beyond peeved face glaring down right at her. Spoiled gasped.
"So, I heard you've been picking on Rubble." Chase said. "Am I right, Spoiled Milk?" Spoiled stared in fear. "First, the crusaders, and then our team's sixth member. My my, I must say that you're really on a roll. But hear me now, because I'm only going to say this once. If I find out that you picked on Rubble, or any of my friends ever again, the consequences I have in mind for you will be grave. Do you understand me?" Spoiled didn't respond. "I said. DO. YOU. UNDERSTAND. ME!?!?!?"
"Y-Yes, o-officer..." Spoiled shook. "P-Please... D-Don't hurt me..."
"BOO!" Spoiled ran away screaming, causing Chase to laugh very hard. "That'll teach that hag to mess with the Paw Patrol."
P-P-P-Paw, Paw, Paw Patrol
