//------------------------------// // Chapter 2 // Story: Maybe Love Bites Twice // by Fat1thatyoulove //------------------------------// Chapter 2 – But why? The sight of you falling back to ground takes Twilight's attention for the moment, but your words turn her head as she gives an annoyed and slightly angry stare to the mare at the window, "RAINBOW DASH???" As you pull yourself from the ground the window of the room comes open as the cyan pegasus pokes her head into the sweet smelling room with a nonchalant smile, "Hey guys, what's up?" "What's up?!" Twilight blinks to the statement as she speaks up, "How long have you been there?!" Rainbow shrugs as she sets her front hooves to the window sill, "Well I got to see you jab him in the face with your hoof, not bad Twilight. But maybe you should not play so rough huh?" Twilight's face is beat red with anger and embarrassment as she speaks up, "W-why were you watching!?" Rainbow rolls her hoof to the comment as she just blows to it calmly, "Oh come on Twilight, it's not like I was going to watch." She gives a little laugh as she continues, "It was just weird to you know...See it, I-I mean you two are like the oldest married couple in the group and we all kind of thought you two just sit around the house talking about books or something." The words do not alter Twilight's red blushed face as she speaks up, "Well that doesn't mean you can just stay outside of the window!" You hold your mouth shut as you just listen to Twilight's embarrassed and slight rage filled tone. Rainbow rubs her hoof to her neck as she speaks up, "A-alright fair enough...Anyways, who's the letters from?" Twilight blinks to the quick change in conversation as she floats the two letters up and gets up from the bed, her silent trot start into the hall as she tries to hold her embarrassed face from her friend. Rainbow watches the mare move to the hall as she comes in through the window and looks you over, "S-sorry." You shake your head to the comment as your mind almost blanks with how to deal with the situation, "R-really? Is it that hard to get some stallion?" The comment brings a quick response from the mare as her wings flair out, "Oh really? I'll have you know that-..." You wave your hoof to the mare as you cut her off, "No no." You turn your trot towards the hall as you shake your head, "You can keep it to yourself Rainbow, I believe you." The mare cocks a slight smile as she nods to you, "Ya ya, you should watch where you walk wouldn't want to hurt your back old pony." You pause your trot into the hall as you raise a hoof to the mare, "Old? I like just stopped that lake monster thing from eating Fluttershy-.." "That?!" The mare gives a little laugh as she shakes her head, "That was like four months ago, and it wasn't even cool." She flicks her rainbow mane from her face as she continues, "I mean like really if somepony where to write a book on your life THAT would totally not be in." You blink to the mare as you realize something, she just barged into my house and now we are doing one ups??? You bring your hoof to your head as you speak up, "I-I think I'm going to stop this conversation now." Rainbow's cocky smile fades as she realizes the room she stands in, "Y-ya...Sorry again, I just wanted to know if Twilight got the new Daring Do in and well...I thought I heard something." You shake your head to the comment as you just laugh to yourself not knowing what to say. However, your voice is cut off as Twilight comes back into the room. You and Rainbow both take notice to the mare's stare as you speak up, "What?" "P-Princess Luna may have reverted back to Nightmare moon." Rainbow's eyes grow wide as she speaks up, "WHAT?" You blink to the name as you swing your head between the two mares, "Night Mare Moon? what's that?" Twilight turns her gaze to you as she continues, "Princess Luna was once out to take over Equestria, but we used the Elements of Harmony to turn her good." You blink to the words as you try to understand why you have never been told this before. But you continue to listen to the mare as she trails on, "...Celestia has Princess Luna right now but she needs us to come to Canterlot first thing tomorrow." "Tomorrow?" Rainbow's wings flared out as she speaks up, "What? Why don't we just get there now?! I can get everypony in like minutes!" Twilight shakes her head as she speaks up, "Celestia has not had enough time to work on the Element of Harmony since Discord corrupted it." Rainbow's wings flop down as she shakes her head, "HOW? That was so long ago?" "She has been busy with the changelings, she hasn't had time for something like that." Twilight's words bring your voice out as you speak out, "S-so what are we doing?" Twilight shakes her head as she speaks up, "She said she will tell us tomorrow." Rainbow just blinks to the comment as she shakes her head again, "W-well what was the other letter?" Twilight's voice gets a little lower as she continues, "Violet wanted to come up tomorrow to see everypony...But now I need to send her a letter. I just hope she gets it in time, I can't send it to her that kind of magic is hard even for me." The words bring Rainbow's wings back to her back as she speaks up, "Well what should we do until tomorrow?" Twilight just shrugs to the comment as she shakes her head, "Just be ready I guess... She only sent two tickets so I don't worry." "Don't worry?" Rainbow takes a step forward as she blows to the comment, "Um hello? Princess Luna turning back into Nightmare Moon, shouldn't that be something important?" You nod to the comment as you speak up, "Ya are you sure the letter said tomorrow?" Twilight nods her head as she starts back into the hall, "Yes, now I need to find my old research papers on friendship...If Celestia gets the crown back to normal it won't be bound to us anymore, I just hope there's something in the reports to help somepony use the crown." She brings her hoof to her forehead as she trots away a little more, "Oh...Now I have a headache." Rainbow quickly moves past you as she speaks up, "Hey I still have some of my own papers you had me write at my house, I'll be back with them." The mare quickly moves past Twilight as she darts down the stairs and out the door. Too the two absent mares you poke your head out and into the hallway, "I'll make sure the house doesn't burn down...I guess." You turn back to the candle lit room as you spark your magic up to the candles with a sigh, "So much for today." End of chapter 2
