//------------------------------// // Chapter 10- Rarity // Story: Friendship Academy // by Dusk_Writer //------------------------------// Rarity's POV I groaned as I opened my eyes. The last thing I remembered was falling down a bottomless pit. Not so bottomless now, I thought. I took in my surroundings and noticed I was in some sort of cave, with…dirt! Alot of dirt!! I yelped and stood up, desperately trying to wipe the filthy dirt off of my dress. "This monster is going to pay for putting me in this filth." I grumbled. After wiping all the dirt off, I looked around trying to find a way out. Then I spotted it, an opening! I grinned and walked towards the exit. As I exited the cave I noticed it led outside……TO CANTERLOT?!?!!! "What the…h-how?" I stuttered, as I looked around. The cave I was previously in, was in the middle of Canterlot! Then, an elegant looking woman came up to me and looked at me wide-eyed. "Where did you get that horrid looking 'dress'? The garbage?" The woman said with disgust. "Whaa?" I looked at my dress, it was ripped and really dirty! And admittedly, it did look like something from the garbage. I felt some tears in my eyes. I saw more people look at me in disgust. I held the tears back, I would not cry! More people began to mock me and say things like, 'disgraceful', 'simply horrible', 'not worthy of Canterlot'. Not worthy of Canterlot huh? Well, I'll show them…somehow, I thought. I suddenly then appeared in my sewing room. "Huh, what now?!" I said confused. I hmm'ed as I looked around, for the millionth time. Then I saw it, a timer. It read, 30:00, and was slowly counting down. I took that as a sign to start my dress. I grinned, if only this monster knew who he was dealing with, I could make dresses with hands tied behind my back. And so I began…. Blue silk, with some magenta, and black, gold lining…Oh! This is going to be perfect!! I started working on my dress as I gathered all my materials. I started looking for my sewing machine with all the materials in my hands, but…in the place of my sewing machine was a sewing needle. My eyes widened as I realised the would be no sewing machine. I quickly put down my materials and started sewing… After a while, the timer read 00:05, I had to move fast I only had to make a few adjustments here and there. 4 Tighten the magenta belt… 3 Finish the gold lining 2 Straighten it out 1 …DONE!! I grinned as I looked at my final project, I appeared in the middle of Canterlot again wearing the dress, and those people who mocked me earlier, looked at me in awe. I smirked at their shocked faces. "Criticism…will never bring me down." I said to the crowd, smiling. I disappeared once again and appeared back in the cave. I groaned, this was getting annoying! I walked over to the cave exit once again, but now, it was just a large room instead of Canterlot, with someone sitting on it. I gasped, that's……
