EqG Tales: Alphabet Edition

by Brian Sheil


Y is for Yard

The sun rises in Canterlot City as Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo gathered at Rarity's house. Each carrying a yoga mat. Apple Bloom's mat is red, Sweetie's is lime green, and Scootaloo's is blue.
"Thank you for coming, guys." Sweetie said happily.
"No problem." Scootaloo replied. "I know that some people do yoga early in the morning."
"You're right, Scoots. That's why I asked each of you to dress in exercise wear and bring your mats."
"Are we doing yoga in your yard?" Apple Bloom asked.
"Yes, we are." Sweetie then made an announcement. "If fact, I have a surprise for you guys. Follow me."
The three friends made their way to a gate. Sweetie Belle opened it, and the girls were shocked. They saw an area with a beautiful pond with a few goldfish, some benches and tiki torches, and a flat brick area.
"Is this some sort of zen garden?" Apple Bloom asked.
"It sure is" Sweetie Belle replied. "Rarity had this place set up so that occasionally, she would have peace and quiet."
"I can understand why." Scootaloo added. "Even I'm feeling at ease here."
The three friends went to brick area. They rolled out their mats, took off their shoes, and stepped on the mats. Sweetie set up a tablet.
"I studied a new yoga routine. " Sweetie said. "Are you ready to follow me?"
"As ready as a kind woman stitching up yarn into a blanket." Apple Bloom replied.
"Me too." Scootaloo added. "Even somebody like me needs to relax."
Sweetie turned on some gentle music, then turned to her friends. "Okay, let's begin."
Meanwhile, inside her bedroom, Rarity finished brushing her hair. She looks at herself in the mirror.
"I should thank Sunset Shimmer for this yellow nightgown. " Rarity said to herself. "It definitely brings out the colors of the sunrise."
Soon, she hears calm music coming from outside. Looking through the windows, she soon spots her sister and her friends doing yoga in the zen garden.
Sweetie must think the weather is perfect for yoga. Rarity thought. That gives me an idea.
Soon, Sweetie addresses her friends. "You both did very good. Okay, friends. Now, it's time for a meditation period."
Suddenly, Rarity arrives wearing a blue short sleeve shirt and black 3/4 tights.
"Rarity!" Sweetie gasped. "W-W-What did I do wrong?"
Sweetie Belle started to get nervous until Rarity approached her in a calm mood. "Don't panic, Sweetie. I'm not upset that you and your friends came to do some yoga."
"No?"
"Of course not, dear. In fact, I wonder if I can join you for meditation."
Sweetie Belle soon calmed down, and felt relaxed. "Sure. I don't see why not."
The three friends sat cross legged on their mats with their eyes closed. Rarity sat on one of her cushions and meditated with them. Elsewhere, Octavia walked down the street with a peach skinned hefty woman with brown hair in pigtails. She has on a dark brown tribal type dress and tan boots.
"How do you like our town, Yona?" Octavia asked.
"Canterlot City nice place to visit." The hefty girl, Yona, replied. "Very different that home at Yakyakistan."
"I still can't belive that Rarity and you keep in touch."
"You be surprised. Anyway, great chapter this is. Many words beginning with letter Y. Yoga, Yard, Yellow, Yarn, You, and Yes. Most facinating."
Soon, the brutal Garble came along and looked at Yona. "So, you're a visitor from Yakyakistan. Huh?"
"Yes." Yona replied "Yona is from Yakyakistan."
Octavia is starting to get nervous as Garble continues to give trouble to Yona.
"You're not an ordinary 'yak', you know." Garble said.
Yona got confused. "Oh?"
"You're a YAKITY YAKITY YAK!"
This got Yona mad. She soon charged at Garble. She then sent him flying into a row of garbage cans. That'll teach him not to insult one's heritage.
