//------------------------------// // Recruiting Rarity // Story: Something Wicked This Way Comes // by Pinkamena666 //------------------------------// Twilight arrived at Carousel Boutique and banged on the door. Rarity opened the door. "What is it, Twilight?" she asked in a frustrated tone. "I'm a little busy at the moment." "You have to help! Things are coming!" "I beg your pardon?" Rarity asked, sounding confused. "Things. In the woods!" "Are you sure you haven't been reading too many scary stories, Twilight?" "NO!" yelled Twilight. "Dangerous things are coming!" "Really?" asked Rarity, not believing any of this. "What kind of things?" "Dark things. Shadowy things. They don't really have a form." "Uh-huh." said Rarity, laughing on the inside. "Sure." "I'm not lying!" "Maybe not lying." said Rarity. "Perhaps a joke?" "A joke?!" asked Twilight, getting frustrated. "This is no joke!" "Right." said Rarity sarcastically. "I'm serious!" Twilight pleaded. "Okay." Rarity said, again sarcastically. "Just come with me." said Twilight. "If there's nothing there, i'll help you with whatever it is you're doing." Rarity thought about it for a second. "Deal." She followed Twilight into the center of Ponyville. "Look." said Twilight, pointing towards the entrance of Ponyville. Rarity squinted her eyes and looked. She jumped back when she saw the little demons. "What are those?" she asked with a frightened expression on her face. "Not sure right now. Like I said." "What do we do?" "Round up the others." "Good plan." said Rarity. "Let's go get Applejack." "Fluttershy's getting Applejack." said Twilight, heading for Sugarcube Corner. "Let's get Pinkie Pie." "Fine by me." said Rarity. "Let's hurry. They're getting closer."
