//------------------------------// // Rarity's abnormally romantic day! // Story: Ponies Abnormally Normal Days! // by FelineFluff //------------------------------// "Perfect!" Rarity said, as she added the last feather to her newest hat creation. DING DONG! She heard her doorbell being rung over and over again. "IM COMING IM COMING!" Rarity yelled. When she opened the door, it was all of her best friends! "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!" Her five favorite ponies yelled. "COME ON!!! Your going to be late for your party!" Pinkie pie enthusiastically said, while hopping up and down. "You planned a party for me? Oh I love you guys!!!" Rarity hugged them, put on her feathery hat, and trotted off to Sugarcube Corner for her 21st birthday party. When she got there, Tom was at one of the tables holding a rose in his mouth "OH TOMMY! I'm so glad you made it!" Rarity sweetly said. She ran over, and kissed the giant talking Boulder. "Wait for me!" Spike flew in to the building with his brand new set of pink, and purple wings, that Cadence 'loaned' him. Pinkie Pie fainted at the sight of winged Spike. Like always, she woke up, and fainted again. "Should we tell her the story? I don't want to see her faint again, it mustn't be very healthy!" Rarity said, looking over Pinkie with confused eyes. Spike went in the other room, and when Pinkie woke up, Rarity said "Darling, are you alright? I forgot to tell you! Cadence loaned Spike her wings for a month. Please don't faint again when you see him!" Rarity motioned with her hoof, and Spike flew out of the other room. Pinkie didn't faint, but she was super happy. "Spike, I can't believe you have wings!!!!! I'm just so happy for you!" Pinkie excitedly said, while jumping in circles around him. Rainbow Dash said "Hey, this is Rarity's party! So let's stop focussing on Spike's amazingly awesome princess wings, and let's PARTAY!!!" Rarity went back over to Tom, and started dancing with him. Meanwhile Spike snuck away, and flew out the door. "Where did Spike go?" Rarity said worried. "The door's open!" "Eh, he's probably just flying around, he'll come back!" Twilight said, while doing a really weird dance. "But I have every reason to worry! My Spikey Wikey might be in danger!" Rarity rushed out the door, and left all of her friends, and Tom alone partying without her. "Spike? Spike!?! Where are you?!?!" Rarity screamed. Suddenly there was a purple and green flash in front of her, and she saw Spike flying towards the Everfree forest! Rarity went running after Spike yelling for him. Even though her screams for him to come back were very loud, Spike didn't hear them, because of the wind flying past his ears, as he glided through the early morning air. When she got through the scary forest, Rarity saw a large crater with a bunch of dragons standing inside. From a distance she saw Spike flying next to Garble. It looked like they were playing tag in the air. Garble was the lead teenage dragon in the group of about twenty flying beasts. Rarity ran as fast as she could towards PonyVille to get her friends. She was running so fast, in fact, that she didn't even notice she was running right in to a huge, dark cave! All of a sudden she bumped in to a large, warm, mass of fur. Rarity fell flat on her flank, and looked straight up. "AN URSA MAJOR?!?!?" The ursa was laying down, sleeping, but was still over 500 feet taller than Rarity. Rarity screamed so loud, that it woke all the ursa minors! There were four 300 foot tall bear-like creatures walking towards Rarity. She went screaming out of the cave, and ran towards The dragon crator. Once the dragons saw the scary sight, they flew away. But Spike was too busy bragging about his new princess wings, he didn't even notice them! Rarity ran straight past Spike and fell in the crater. She went down the rocky edge, until hitting the bottom of the crater face-first. Spike finally heard the thumping of their steps, but it was too late! One of the ursa's took Spike in its paw, and shoved him in its mouth! Inside, Spike held on to the one of its giant teeth, so he didn't get swallowed down the dark slimy tunnel that led to the ursa's acid filled stomach. Spike started screaming "RARITY! RARITY! SAVE MEEEEEEE!!!" Even though Rarity couldn't hear his screams, one of the ursa's were acting really strange. She saw the ursa open its mouth, and a purple thing flew out! It was Spike! But he wasn't safe for long! As the ursa's were turning around to go back to their cave, one on their tails hit spike, and made him go tumbling down to the ground! "SPIKEY WIKEY!!!!!!!!" Rarity said as she witnessed Spike falling at full speed. Rarity tried climbing up the rocks, but there was no way she would be able to make it in time! "WHAT DO I DO?!?! AHA!!! I'll use that transporting spell Twilight taught me! If I can only remember..." Suddenly Rarity's magic flared up, as she landed right underneath Spike. He was so close to hitting the ground, but Rarity caught him with her magic, feet away from the ground. "Rarity... You saved me!" A crying Spike said, as he threw a tight hug around her neck. Rarity started crying in happiness, and returned that hug, with even more compassion "Anything for my Spikey Wikey!" Spike grabbed one of his wings, and rubbed it. "I think the ursa hurt my wing, when his tail hit me..." His wing looked at an angle, and seemed to be broken! "Oh no! We have to get you to a doctor! But first, do you mind explaining why you came here in the first place?" A confused, and slightly frustrated Rarity said. "Well, I was just trying to show off my new wings, and prove myself to be a real dragon. I didn't mean to ruin your birthday... I'm super sorry Rarity." "I am very dissapointed in you, Spike. But it was mostly my fault the ursa's were here. I accidentally brought them here. I'm the one who should apologize..." Rarity said, as she grabbed Spikes claws with her hoof. "I'm sorry!" They both said in unison. They hugged eachother, and Rarity floated Spike on to her back with magic. "We're going to need to get you back to PonyVille!" Rarity said. Meanwhile, at Sugarcube Corner, everypony was still partying. They were too stupid to even notice Rarity was gone! Fluttershy looked around. When she didn't see Rarity anywhere, she walked up to Tom, and whispered "Uh, hi Tom! I have something to tell you, but you can't tell Rarity! Do you Pinkie promise?" Tom nodded, and Fluttershy continued "You know when Discord turned us grey, and Rarity was protecting you with her life. Rarity said 'DONT TOUCH MY ROCK!!' Well, I went up, and said 'I'm touching your rock Rarity! Ha ha ha ha ha!!!' Well, at that moment I realized something. I wasn't touching you because I wanted to make Rarity mad, I was touching you because, well... I'm deeply in love with you!!!" Fluttershy squeaked out the last part, and lowered her head. Tom said "There's no reason to be shy about it, I'm deeply in love with you too! The only reason I'm Rarity's rockfriend, is because you taught me that kindness is always an option, so I made up with Rarity the only way I knew how! And that was giving her a kiss and a muffin. I thought I'd never have a chance with you, so I decided Rarity was the next best thing!" Fluttershy leaned in, and kissed the giant talking Boulder right on the lips! They kept kissing until they heard a door slam. Rarity was standing in the doorway with Spike on her back, petrified. She stood there in shock with her mouth wide open for what seemed like minutes! But Spike broke the silence, and jumped off her back. "HOW COULD YOU STEAL MY GIRLFRIEND!!!! FLUTTERSHY IS MINE!!!!!" Spike screamed at Tom. He started punching, and kicking at the Boulder. Rarity started crying, and ran out the door while screaming "THATS IT! WERE THROUGH!!! LET US NEVER SPEAK OF THIS AGAIN!!!!" Spike went running after her. Rarity collapsed in the middle of the dirt road, and started sobbing with her face in her hooves. Spike walked up to her, put his claws on her back, and said "I'm sorry I have to say this, but Tom was just a boulder that Discord created. You deserve a lot better!" "Thanks Spike, but he ruined my life! Now I'm going to be single forever!!" Rarity sobbed. Spike rested his head on her back, and soothingly said "Love is a lot closer than you think." Rarity looked up, and realized what he was trying to say. She looked in to his eyes for what seemed like a whole minute, before Spike broke the silence, and said "You saved my life, and as a part of my dragon code, I must serve you forever. Do you have any requests?" Rarity smiled, and said "Be my very-special somedragon!!!" Spike, and rarity kissed on the lips. Spike blushed, and realized all the feeling he still had for her. After they finished kissing, they got up and headed back to the birthday party. Tom, and Fluttershy were in the corner kissing again. Rarity walked over to Tom, and said "I think we're both happy now!" She put her hoof around Spike. The four had a huge group hug, and forgave eachother. Twilight saw Spikes broken wing, and quickly bandaged it up. Meanwhile, Rarity was dancing with her friends, and eating cake. As everypony walked out the door at the end of the party, Pinkie Pie jumped in front of Rarity and shouted in a playful manner,"SO HOW DID YOU LIKE YOUR PARTY?! WHICH WAS YOUR FAVORITE PART? MINE WAS THE PIÑATA!" "The part when I opened Spikes present!" Rarity enthusiastically said, as she looked down at the beautiful diamond necklace with the word Sparity written on 7 beautiful beads.
