//------------------------------// // Chapter 10 // Story: Poor Little Rich Pony // by Ugly-Duckling123 //------------------------------// Upstairs Diamond Tiara was getting ready for bed. "Daddy? When are we going home?" she asked yawning a bit. "Soon," Filthy Rich said tucking Tiara in. "How soon?"she asked eyelids getting heavy. "Probably not much longer. Now go to sleep. School tomorrow remember." he said turning off the light. The next morning was slightly wilder than normal. "Come on Tiara, we have to go!" Apple Bloom called up the stairs trying to get Diamond Tiara to get moving. "I'm coming! I'm coming!" a voice called back. "Got your lunch this time Sugarcube?" Applejack asked while Apple Bloom was tapping her foot in impatience. "Yes Applejack," she said. "Can't you just drive us to school?" she asked almost begging. "I thought you liked walking to school Apple Bloom," Applejack said. "I do," Apple Bloom replied. "But I also like being on time for it." Suddenly footsteps were coming down the stairs. "Better?" Applejack asked. "Still bet we're going to be late," Apple Bloom mumbled. "Well you better get going then," Big Mac said coming from the kitchen rubbing his arm. "I think you may have broken it AJ," he said. "Quit being a baby," Applejack said. "Besides if I did I think you'd be in a tiny bit more pain." "Ready to go," Diamond Tiara said causing the siblings to stop talking and push Apple Bloom out the door. "Have a good day then," Applejack said waving them down the road. * As Apple Bloom and Diamond Tiara were getting to the corner of the road before school, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo came up. "How's it going then?" Scootaloo said jokingly. "How's what going?" Apple Bloom asked. "Tiara living with you, duh..." Scoots answered. "Well..." Apple Bloom said looking towards Diamond Tiara who didn't say anything. "Wait, you're not really getting to like her are you?" Scootaloo asked. "Er... You remember how Mac told us of Fancy Pants..." Apple Bloom said, as they went though the school gates. "Yeah..." Sweetie Belle said. "And then I asked if every Apple have an opposite they become friends with..." "Er... we were there," Scootaloo said. "I think we'd remember." "Scoots," Sweetie Belle said glaring at the tomboy of the group. "Well, my dad's opposite..." Apple Bloom said looking to Diamond Tiara. "Was my dad." she finished. "Wait what?" the two said stopping in their tracks. "Our dads were opposites to each other," Apple Bloom said going into the class room and to her seat. "What's that got to do with you two?" Scootaloo said. "Nothing, I just thought you'd like to know," Apple Bloom said. "What about Honey-Crisp?" Tiara asked smiling. "Who?" Scootaloo asked. "Alright class settle down," Miss Cheerilee said coming in. "Just come over after school," Apple Bloom said, turning her attention to the board and taking the necessary notes on history.
