A sleepover

chapter 5

We trot silently over to the old house that Cranky decided to live in.

“a'hr yuh shur ya wanna do it at this hour?” applejack asks, one hoof over her hat to keep it from flying away.

“positive.” Rainbow dash says, her loud wingbeats fanning the air. It dosent matter. The storm drowns out her wingbeats as she nears his house.

“uh... okay. Um just knock silently one time... uh and ummm tehn we can leave.” i say, wanting Dash to bail out. It was cold, and Cranky shure was cranky.

“oh come on, twilight!” Rainbow says, her hooves on her hips. “lighten up, will ya? Im gonna knock loud and enough so that he can hear.”

She nears the door, hesitates. But her wings stop flapping, she lands on the ground and knocks as hard as she posibly can. Then she shoots off like a bullet, me and appleckack not far behind her.

Laughing like total maniacs, we stumble inside and warm up by the fire, shivering.

“so... howd it go?” asks pinke. “did he catch ya? Are you dead?”

i roll my eyes at her foolishness. “no, were alive.”

“ah jus have that feelin that any minute now, hes gonna show up at this doorstep, demandin' tah know why we did that.” appleckack grinned.

“i know right?” rainbow dash says, picking snow from her mane. “like hes walking up now, right to her doorstep.”

At that moment, a loud and harsh knock comes through the door.
