//------------------------------// // Starbits chat // Story: The sweetest pie // by Cookiecreeper //------------------------------// Rarity trotted into Starbits to be immediatly greeted by none other than Coco! "Rarity?" "Coco? Darling! How have you been since manehattan?" Rarity asked, hugging the cute mare tightly. "Well to be honest, manehattan is pretty brutal. I was having trouble getting into ANY production. At my next audition I was practically BEGGING for the part! After I didn't get that part; I decided to move to Ponyville. This job pays really well and, well… here we are!" Coco said, explaining. The 5 mares waved at Rarity, signalling for her to go over. "Oops! Gotta go Coco!" Rarity rambled, rushing over to her friends. "Bye Rarity!" Coco said, returning to the door. "Hi girls!" Rarity said, sitting down. "Where's Spike?" She asked. "Oh that! Spike had to do some chores back at the castle." Twilight answered, sipping her espresso. "So now we're all here; we can discuss a certain thing that arrived in our mail…" Twilight said, taking a card out of her saddlebag. Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity and Fluttershy also took out their invitations… then Pinkie Pie. "B-but Pinkie… if you didn't send out those invitations then who did?" Fluttershy asked, her cup shaking in her hooves. "Who else would have the experience to throw a party like Pinkie here? Ah personally don't know." Applejack said, downing her coffee. The mares looked at each other. "You don't think…?" Pinkie said, a hopeful look on her face. "He travels EQUESTRIA, sugarcube! Ah don't think it's likely HE would be throwin' the shindig." AppleJack said, stirring her drink. "Doesn't anypony else think that 3:00 is awfully early for a party?" Rarity asked. "Totally! Especially as it's 2:30 and the party's today!" Pinkie Pie said giggling. "IT'S 2:30?!!" Everypony screamed, rushing out the door. Pinkie was the only one left. "Was I seriously the only one who got ready before I left?" She asked herself. She shrugged and finished her black coffee. Rarity rushed through the carousel boutique door to find Sweetie Belle completely wrapped in toilet paper. "Look Rarity I'm a mummy!" Sweetie Belle said, staggering. The toilet paper covered her eyes so she had no idea where she was going. Sweetie Belle walked into a display table, smashing a vase in the process. Rarity winced as if she had just been slapped. "That was given to me by great grandmother vintage!" Hooves over her mouth. "Rarity… it's 2:45."
