//------------------------------// // Diamond Tiara's Revenge // Story: Diamond Tiara's Revenge // by Stardom Freedom //------------------------------// Diamond Tiara was in her huge, luxurious room in her mansion. Usually, her best friend, Silver Spoon, would be sitting there with her, but she ditched her to be with those Cutie Mark Crusaders. "I need this to be good revenge! Silver Spoon needs to be so embarrassed that she'll shame all her grandchildren!" Diamond thought aloud. She thought and thought. Then she got an idea. "I'll ask Daddy what he does to his business competitors when they get more attention than him!" The pink filly went downstairs and found her father in his workroom, sipping a cup of coffee. "Daddy, I have a question," Diamond said. "Yes, Di?" Filthy Rich asked. "I heard that Derpy Hooves' Mail March is getting more popularity than your Barnyard Bargains. What are you gonna do to make sure she doesn't put BB out of business?" Diamond questioned. "Well, first of all, I will write reviews about how horrible her service is. Remember when she put the letter sent to Berry Punch in our mailbox?" Diamond nodded. "That's something I could add in. Also, I will spread the word that BB has everything anypony would want, and that DHMM is the silliest thing since the inturrupting cow." Filthy's daughter snickered. "That is true," "If all that doesn't work, I'll sabotage Derpy. I'll put ponies' letters in envelopes that are addressed to them, but it's actually another pony's, even though that happens frequently. I'll also send letters to the ponies making it look like they're from Derpy, but it's a rude letter." "Thank you, Daddy!" Diamond hugged her father and then ran up to her room. "Heh, heh, heh," The Cutie Mark Crusaders and Silver Spoon were jumping rope during recess. They were surprised when Diamond Tiara trotted up to them. With a huge smile, she said, "Girls, I'm sooooo sorry for what I did to you. In fact, I want to make it up to you." Silver Spoon blinked while Crusaders' jaws dropped. "Huddle!" Apple Bloom called. She, Sweetie Belle, Silver, Scootaloo huddled together. "We should definitely take up this offer!" Sweetie Belle exclaimed. "I don't know. She did tease us." Scootaloo bit her lip. "Yeah. Even though I was her BFF, she did shun me." Silver agreed. "But it's a good idea. I mean, we should give her a chance. That's what Applejack always says." Apple Bloom thought aloud. "We will do this the democracy way. Those who agree we should take up Diamond Tiara's offer, raise your hoof." Scootaloo said. Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom raised their hooves. "And those opposed?" Silver and Scootaloo raised their hooves in debate. "We've got a tie," the latter said. "Um, it'll be great! I'll take you to dinner and a show! And after that, we'll go watch Nightmare Moon's Return in my screening room!" Diamond Tiara smiled. Scootaloo gasped. "Nightmare Moon's Return?! But that movie's still in theaters!" "Yeah, well, my screening room is like a theater. All the latest movies are there." Diamond bragged. "What the heck, I'm in!" Scootaloo said, and joined the side Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom were on. Silver sighed. "I hope I don't regret this," "Oh, you won't! And, all of you, take a bath before you come." Diamond smiled evilly. That night, the girls all met at Diamond Tiara's mansion before they started the party. "Did you girls wash up before you came?" Diamond asked. "Yeah!" they all answered, but Silver had something to add on. "Somepony replaced my shampoo with strawberry-flavored yogurt," Diamond tried to hold in her laughter, for it was her who replaced it. "Oh well. Strawberry yogurt smells good anyway. Nopony will notice." she finally said. "Anyway, follow me!" The girls followed Diamond Tiara to a restaurant with a stage so people could perform. "Two plates of spaghetti and meatballs and two plates of a daffodil and daisy sandwich, please," Diamond ordered. "But I didn't want either of those, Di," Silver Spoon pointed out. Diamond ignored her, and found her and the others a table. They got what they ordered after a few minutes. Apple Bloom and Diamond grabbed the two plates with the sandwich on it, and Sweetie Belle got the spaghetti. "I'm not hungry," Silver insisted. Soon, a Unicorn stallion walked onto the stage. "We are now going to call members in the audience to sing onstage!" he announced. Diamond got out of her seat and pushed Silver onstage. "Great, a volunteer! You may sing this song." he said. A song Silver didn't know blared through the speakers. She began to tremble. Not just because she didn't know the song, but also because she was a horrible singer! Feeling crushed, the silver filly started to improvise. "Um... when you need a friend, you've got a friend like me to help you get through it all," she croaked. As she continued to sing, the whole audience began to laugh (excluding the Crusaders). However, Diamond was the loudest of them all. In fact, daffodil petals began to come out of her nose! Silver began to blush. She rushed off the stage. The Crusaders and Diamond followed her out of the restaurant. Through snorts, Diamond uttered, "Let's... go... see the... movie," They all trotted to her mansion, and Silver hung her head in shame. Apple Bloom approached her. "I'm sure Diamond Tiara didn't know that ya were a bad singer. No offense." "None taken. And she's known since we met! I'm starting to regret doing this." Silver sighed. Soon, they got to the large estate of Filthy Rich. Diamond went to her butler, Gandave, and demanded, "Go to the screening room and make sure there are the most comfortable seats, buttered popcorn, and that the movie Nightmare Moon's Return in 3-D is on. NOW!" Gandave nodded and sprinted off. Diamond grinned. "Follow me," Diamond ushered them to a large theater-like room. "I did everything you ordered, Ms. Tiara. The movie will be on soon." Gandave said, handing the girls bags of popcorn. "Thank you. And give us our 3-D glasses." Gandave nodded and went off. He came back with four pairs of glasses. Once the fillies put them on, the movie began. Nightmare Moon was walking down a street in Ponyville, scaring the citizens. Using the traditional Canterlot voice, she yelled, "Citizens of Ponyville, you thought that I was turned back into Princess Luna. Well, part of my magic survived, and killed Luna, making me come back! And now I can bring eternal darkness to the world! But I can't do it all alone. I'll need an army, and all you Ponyvillians will be it! Together we will reign Equestria, and then the world! Starting with..." Nightmare looked around. "You!" she shouted. Her hoof was pointed directly at Silver. She jumped at the citizen, but the 3-D made it jump at Silver, and she gobbled her up! The Crusaders gasped in horror, and Apple Bloom's eyes filled with tears. Scootaloo glared at Diamond, who wheezing from laughing so hard. "What part of this is funny?!" she demanded. Diamond didn't respond, and just kept laughing. "Bring her back!" Sweetie Belle demanded. "Sorry, I can't do that. Only Alicorns can bring her back in a snap, and there are no Alicorn here. So, you'll just have to wait 20 minutes. Yes, I planned this." Diamond smirked. "How could ya do this?! Who knows what's happenin' to Sil?!" Apple Bloom screamed. Diamond kept on laughing. Twenty minutes later, Silver appeared in the middle of the floor, tears in her eyes. The girls asked what happened. "She was torturing me. Using her magic to blast me around. Soon she cornered me, and then I was all of a sudden here." she shuddered, recalling the memory. Diamond was shocked at this. Her plan was for the fake Nightmare Moon to appear to gobble her up and then Silver would just be in Diamond's bedroom for 20 minutes. Not for Nightmare to take Silver to an actual place and torture her. Diamond hung her head in defeat. "I'm sorry. I was trying to teach Silver Spoon a lesson for refusing to be my friend. I didn't know that Silver would be tortured. She was supposed to be in my room." Tears streamed down the pink filly's face. "You don't have to forgive me. I actually don't want you to." The others actually felt sympathy for Diamond, and forgave her. They taught her how to be nicer, and Diamond had a better reputation in school. It was all good for them. Diamond and Silver even helped the Crusaders earn their cutie marks. But that's a different story...
