//------------------------------// // Lunch with Celestia // Story: Why Twilight? // by MysteriousFlutterDash //------------------------------// Chapter 8 After all the girls were prepared to leave for the lunch, they were off. They had taken the train from Ponyville to Canterlot. After they got off the train they walked to the castle, being that it wasn't to far. Once they were let in by the guards they joined Princess Celestia in the dining room. "I'm glad to have all of you here today. Now about that topic you wanted to discuss with me," Princess Celestia started. "Yes, your highness, we have come to believe that it is not fair that Twilight Sparkle is the only one who became a princess. Not to be rude but we ALL helped Twilight become a princess," Rarity explained to the princess in a calm, relaxed tone. "I do understand your point of view but..." She paused. "I trust Twilight more, because she is my student and I have taught her everything she knows. Except the things she learned from you, girls you helped Twilight become a princess. Yes, but I don't believe you know the pressure and responsibilities of being a princess. I know from watching Twilight she has all the traits a princess needs," explained Princess Celestia. "I don't mean to be rude or childish your highness but..." Rarity was full of rage from listening to what the princess had been saying. "IT'S JUST NOT FAIR!!!!!" Rarity bursted from the rage built up inside. "Again I am not saying you girls haven't helped Twilight but I don't know what would happen if you were princesses," Princess Celestia explained in a little more frustrated voice. Then there was a awkward silence that followed that. It lasted about ten minutes before Rarity started to talk again. "I apologize for the way I was your highness but I don't see exactly how you can't trust us. You trusted us to help Twilight save the Crystal Empire, and defeat Discord and...." these were the last words before Princess Celestia cut in. "Rarity I understand your frustration but I trust Twilight more, I have worked with her since she was a filly.... I have seen you girls around but not the special attention I payed to Twilight," Princess Celestia tried to put her point across easily without any problems. "With all do respect your highness," Applejack started to talk in the conversation. "I think we at least deserve some kind of reward, because we helped make the newest princess." "Yeah," all the other mares chimed in. "And we want Twilight to be able to come down for PARTIES!!!" Pinkie explained. That was when the girls kept on giving demands for what they wanted. "Okay girls listen up! I will give each of you one thing you want, so choose wisely," Princess Celestia finally decided. So all of the girls thought of something. "I would like to have a room in the castle where I am ALWAYS welcome to party," explained Pinkie Pie. "Done," Celestia replied. "And I would like to have some helpers around the farm to do some applebucking," explained AJ. "Done," Celestia called in the best applebuckers in Equestria. "I would like to be officially part of the wonderbolts," Rainbow said. "Spitefire!" called Celestia. "Yes ma'am!" Spitefire replied. "This is your newest memeber," Celestia said. "Yes ma'am! Come on squirt we've got training to do," Spitefire explained. "Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh!" Rainbow replied as she left. "I would like a field for my animals to roam, please," Fluttershy whispered. "Done," Celestia replied. "Rarity, what would you like?" "I have feeling I am asking to much... After my tantrum and all," Rarity explained. "No, just ask. But remember only one thing," Celestia explained. "I would like a boutique in Canterlot... Except only as a business I still want to live in Ponyville with my friends," Rarity explained. "Then it is done," Celestia said. And that was it, the girls went home with all the things they asked for. And they continued their daily lives.... Not being jealous of each other anymore.
