Cutie Mark Crusading

Feelings

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo trotted into Apple Bloom's room.

"So," Sweetie Belle said breaking the silence."Anypony gonna say anything or is it just me.." Sweetie said, confused.

"I am guessing it's only gonna be you." said Scootaloo peering at Apple Bloom.

"I HATE BABS!" shouted Apple Bloom out of the blue. Apple Bloom got up and was attempting to flip over her closet.

"Apple Bloom settle down!" yelled Sweetie Belle pulling Apple Bloom away from the closet.

"Yeah! She couldn't tell us! It was an honest mistake!" shouted Scootaloo pulling at Apple Bloom.

'She might have said that, but how do we know she is telling the truth?" said Apple Bloom. Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom stopped pulling.

"You're right!" said Sweetie Belle.

"And when have I ever not been right?" said Apple Bloom in a very sassy way.

"Okay well we agree with you now you don't have to rub it in our faces, AGAIN..." said Scootaloo.

"Okay moving on. We need to tell her off!" said Apple Bloom.

"Well actually-" said Sweetie Belle when she got cut off by Scootaloo.

"Not now Sweetie Belle." said Scootaloo.
Sweetie Belle had been getting tired of the fact that for some reason her friends were not listening to her and leaving her out most of the time. The anger was building up inside her, but Babs Seed was coming and she knew that her friends were excited about it, and she was too. The excitement of it all sorta took away from the pain of it all. She didn't want the visit anyways. Just because her friends were being a little rude to her, and didn't even know it, doesn't mean she has to ruin it. The least she could do was not ruin it all to make the pain worse, than to have some pain but still have friends. Even though Babs' visit had already been ruined by the fact she got her cutie mark and didn't tell a single pony.

"Alright I guess..." said Sweetie Belle sadly plopping down on Apple Bloom's bed sighing.

"Let's go tell her off right now!" said Scootaloo raising her hoof up.

"Yeah let's-" Apple Bloom remembered the promise she had made to Babs. The promise too meet up the next day. To talk about what happened at the train station. Apple Bloom didn't realize she had lost her grip of the real world the second while having a flash back of walking away from Babs. Once Apple Bloom came back to the real world, coming out of the flash back she was in.

"Apple Bloom? Apple Bloom?" said Sweetie and Scootaloo waving their hooves in front of Apple Bloom's face.

"What happened?" Apple Bloom asked. Apple Bloom looked very confused. The other two girls thought she knew what happened, which made them as clueless as her. "I just remembered! We promised Babs that we would meet her at the treehouse tomorrow at noon!" The girls memory was refreshed. Scootaloo was excited, a bit too excited though. Sweetie Belle was pretending to be excited. She had learned from Princess Luna to always give ponies a second chance, although Babs had already had hers when they first met. Even though she was tempted, she knew that it was wrong to not let her have another chance. Even though she didn't even need another! It's not even Babs' fault that she couldn't tell them! She was only playing along so she wouldn't lose her friends. The girls all started walking out into the barn too see their friends.

"Also AB, you blacked out for a minute there." said Scootaloo walking out beside Apple Bloom.

"Really? I didn't notice." The girls all started laughing and continued walking on into the barn. To their surprise nopony was in the barn except for a small note that read:

Dear CMC,
Rainbow Dash accidentally broke Fluttershy's nose while flipping a bucket of apples. We will go into detail when we get back from the infirmary. We will be back soon!
Your Friends, Twilight, Pinkie, Rainbow, Rarity, Apple Jack, and Fluttershy.

"Hey that means that we have enough time to make a plan of how to get back at Babs!" said Scootaloo.

"I don't think we-" said Sweetie getting cut off once again.

"Yeah let's do it!" said Scootaloo. Then Apple Bloom and Scootaloo went trotting off, Sweetie Belle dragging behind, still thinking about Babs and giving her another chance.
