Applejack had thrown a rock at the side Rarity’s head. She chuckled once at her impeccable aim. “Oooh. Nice one, AJ!” Rainbow Dash whispered to Applejack, and she then proceeded to give Applejack a hoof-bump. “That wasn’t a ‘nice one,’ you filthy horses!” Rarity cried. Everyone gasped at Rarity’s harsh words. Rarity rolled her eyes. “Sorry Rares, but Applejack’s story was like, ten times better than yours,” Rainbow said after a while. “Hmph!” Rarity snapped. “So, uh, did I die in tha’ there story o’ yours?” Everyone remained silent. The only sound to be heard were the quiet chirps of the crickets in the distance; the soft hum of Fluttershy, trying to ignore all of the drama going on around her; Rainbow Dash’s deep inhalations, trying oh-so-very-hard not to laugh; and the light crackle and snap of the fire. Rarity smirked at Applejack. “Uh….” Applejack gulped. “You want an ending, huh?” Rarity raised an eyebrow. “Oh, I’ll give you an ending!” Rarity spat. Applejack stood up. “You wanna go, Rarity?” “Do you?!” Rarity stood up as well. “Woah woah woah, calm down,” Twilight interjected. “As … wonderful … as that sounds, it’s my turn now! Come on, girls.” “Grouch!” “Uncultured ruffian!” “Girls!” Twilight groaned. Rarity crossed her arms and mumbled, “Applejack would’ve died either way.”
