"So, Majestic, weren't you in the same camp as me? back in Cloudsdale?" Fluttershy asks. She is with Majestic in her home, watching Majestic finish the butterfly clip.
"Yeah, I think I remember. You were just as shy back then." Majestic grabs some green gems, carefully placing them in the butterfly. "We didn't really hang out."
"No. You, you were always so popular. I couldn't be near so many people."
"I'm sorry." Majestic smiles and walks over, placing the now finished butterfly pin in Fluttershy's hair. "There, adorable."
"Wow, i-i can't believe you made this. Thank you so much."
"It's not a problem." Majestic and Fluttershy walk out of the house and down the street. "Aqua was there too you know."
"Yeah, i-i remember. You two fought, didn't you?" Majestic smirks and nods.
"I remember one time in particular, nearly tore the place in two." She shakes her head. "I honestly dont know why, but the two of us can't get along. and we've tried. We really have. But when you stick us together you end up with some damage."
"Why?"
"I don't know. It's annoying, really annoying. I mean..." She sighs.
"What is it?"
"I... I could really use Aqua's help with something."
"With what?"
"Well..." Majestic looks up. "there is a very rare gem I want. It would be so amazing. And I already have a necklace ready for it, but i need the gem and to cut it into shape."
"What gem?"
"It's called a cloud diamond."
"I heard about those. they sparkle rainbow colors when the sun hits them, right?" Majestic nods.
"Exactly the gem. You see, I've been trying to make the perfect necklace for Princess Celestia, and..."
"Hey girls. You're talking about the Princess?" Twilight walks over.
"Hello Twilight. Yeah, I was telling Fluttershy about a necklace I want to make."
"Oh! Cool!"
"Yes, but I need a gem that is very hard to get a hold of."
"What gem?"
"It's called a cloud diamond."
"A what?"
"Is there a library around here?"
"Oh, yeah!" The three head to the library and Majestic walks around until she finds what she's looking for. She flies up and grabs a book off the shelves, then flies to the girls and sets the book down.
"Here. Rare Gems and Jewels." Majestic opens the book to a page with a round gem that would be clear, but it looks as if fog is trapped in side, its swirling wispy movements frozen in place suddenly. around it are sparkles that are the colors of the rainbow. "This is a very rare gem, and it's very beautiful. It would be perfect for a necklace I have prepared for the Princess, but... I can't get this gem. I would need Aqua's help, but i..."
"But what?" Majestic shakes her head and closes the book.
"I can't ask anything of her. the two of us, we don't get along, we aren't friends..."
"Nonesense! you two could be friends. Look, we'll help."
"thanks, but I'm fine." Majestic walks out.
"Poor Majestic. She really wants to be friends with Aqua, and could use her help."
"Why is this such a rare jewel?"
"What?"
"I'm wondering, what makes this jewel so rare? there are lots of clouds, so do the jewels grow in them or what?"
"Oh, i-i don't know..."
"Here, lets check." Twilight opens the book back to the cloud diamond page. "Lets see." she reads it, then shakes her head. "This sounds strange."
"what?"
"It says here the cloud diamond is made from compressing clouds."
"Compressing clouds? Like, squishing them?"
"Yeah."
"That doesn't sound too hard."
"yeah."
"Twilight!" Spike runs in. "Come on! its time for the party!"
"Oh, right. well, we'll look more at this later." Twilight shuts the book, and the three head over to the bakery...
============================
"Paaaaaarty!" Pinkie Pie jumps around to the music. Twilight shakes her head, then looks at the two guests of honor. They're on opposite sides of the room, talking with different ponies.
"I don't know if we can get them together." Fluttershy sighs.
"We can't just stand back though. Somehow we'll get those two to work together, and to be friends." Fluttershy shakes her head at Twilight and just walks away. She walks over to Majestic and smiles.
"So, do you like the party?" Majestic smiles at her.
"Yeah, this has been nice." Majestic looks around. "I'm getting a bit tired though. I think I'll head home for now."
"Alright. Stay safe."
"Thanks Fluttershy." Majestic walks out. As she walks down the road to her home she looks up at the sky. It's clear out, filled with beautiful stars. "Maybe...." She shakes her head and continues her walk home, wanting to get some rest...
------------------
"I'm gonna win!"
"No, me!" Aqua and Rainbow glare at each other. Majestic rolls her eyes.
"Just race!" She shouts. The two glare at her, then glare at each other.
"Ready! Set! Go!" Pinkie shouts. And off they go. Majestic shakes her head, then looks at Applejack.
"What are the rules?"
"They race down to the mountain, up to its top, grab a rock from the very top, and bring it back."
"Sounds interesting...." Majestic shakes her head. All around her ponies are cheering excitedly, but she didn't care. "I've never been much for racing."
"Ahh well it looks like yer friend has."
"We aren't friends." Majestic starts walking away. "But, she always has been..."
"HI!" Majestic jumps. she was napping on a cloud when someone had snuck up on her. She looks to see a young Aqua.
"Oh, hello."
"I'm Aqua Treasure." Aqua lands on the cloud next to Majestic.
"I'm Majestic Jewel."
"Hey, you going to the summer camp too?"
"Huh? oh, yeah." Majestic returns to trying to nap.
"Come on! Get up! don't be so boring!"
"I'm sorry, but i'm tired."
"You need to get up!" Aqua, in an attempt to wake Majestic up, shoves her off the cloud.
"EEP!" Majestic falls for a few seconds until she gets her balance back, then glares at Aqua. "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!"
"Come on! lets race!" Aqua takes off. Majestic shakes her head, then finds a new cloud to sleep on, doing her best to hide from the new annoyance in her life...
"I WIN!" Majestic hears the cheers and looks to back to see Rainbow, and only her.
"What?" Majestic frowns. "Where is..." She looks around, no sight of Aqua. She runs to Rainbow. "Where is Aqua? what happened to her?"
"I don't know." Rainbow shrugs.
"Not good."
"What? why?"
"Because she doesn't lose, and definitely not this badly." Majestic flies up and looks around.
"Why do you care? i thought you two hated each other."
"We don't get along, sure, but..." she shakes her head. "Just help me find her!" She flies to the mountain, wondering what may have happened to the girl she has grown up fighting with. She's followed by Rainbow. The two reach the mountain and what they see makes them both gasp. "AQUA!" They fly down to the unconscious pony. "Aqua, hey, wake up." Majestic shakes Aqua, no response. "she's breathing, but..."
"I'll go get some help to carry..."
"No! No time! Just help me get her on my back, she isn't that heavy." Rainbow sighs and helps. Majestic then stretches her wings. "Alright, let me know if she starts slipping." And with that they take off. When they land back in Ponyville everyone is shocked to see Aqua out. Majestic sets her down, then sighs. She can see now that Aqua has some damage to her. "What happened to you?"
"Here, let me see her." Another pony walks over, a doctor. He looks Aqua over. "Alright, I can take care of her. She isn't too bad off."
"Sir..." He looks at Majestic, who looks worriedly at him. "Let me know when she wakes up, alright?" He smiles and nods.
"Not a problem." Majestic then stands there, watching as some others pick up Aqua and takes her away. She sighs.
"Stupid Aqua, why did you do this and make me worry?" She turns and walks away.
"Hey, Majestic..." Fluttershy follows her. "How did you know?"
"Know what?"
"How did you know something was wrong?"
"Oh, well, i just know her." Majestic shakes her head. "I told you all, I don't hate her. We don't get along, but well... really, if we could get along at least a little, we would be best friends. But we can't..."
"Thats so sad."
"Yeah, well, I think I'm gonna go get something to eat."
"alright. may I join you?"
"yeah. i think company would be nice." The two end up outside, eating some daphadil sandwhiches.
"So, will you go visit Aqua?"
"Maybe..." Majestic looks down and sighs. "Fluttershy, I'm sorry that you're so insistant on Aqua and I getting along. We should be the best of friends, we both know that. But, I don't know, when we're together we both just get so angry, and every little thing sets us off. I mean, we're so different."
"different? how?"
"Well, one difference is how we act. Aqua is very active, rash often, and well, she's got the mindset of a racer often. Myself, I like take things a bit more slowly, being calm. I suppose I'm a bit more, I don't know, proper I guess."
"You know, sometimes I wonder how some of my friends stay friends." Majestic looks at Fluttershy. "If you look at Applejack and Rarity, they are very different. Or Rainbow Dash and myself. We're all very different, but sometimes thats how we manage to make things work out. We kind of need each other."
"I..." Majestic starts to talk, but stops and smiles. "Yes, I suppose thats how many friends are."
"I don't think it's a lost cause, making you and Aqua friends. It may be a little hard, but I really think you two should get along."
"Thanks Fluttershy." Majestic looks up at the sky, then shuts her eyes. "Maybe... It seems impossible right now, but... I don't know..."
