//------------------------------// // Sweetie Belle: Second Encounter // Story: Spider Stories // by Shimmer Shy //------------------------------// "Well, Scootaloo, I've gotta go. Rarity's waiting for me at the boutique." Sweetie Belle said after a few minutes. "Yeah, me too. Rainbow Dash offered to help teach me how to fly today." Scootaloo replied. They both picked up their spiders and went in opposite directions. Once Sweetie was a few miles from her house, she stopped and set her little friend on the ground. It looked up at her with sad, confused eyes. "Sorry, Scanner. I have to go home now." Sweetie Belle admitted. She turned to go on walking, but Scanner crawled onto her leg, not wanting to be left alone. The filly looked down. "Oh, come on, little guy. Go back with you're friends." The spider didn't budge, so Sweetie attempted to pull him off. After she was inches from the Carousel Boutique, though, the spider was blocking her path. "Scanner, for the last time, Rarity would be horrified if I let a spider into the house. Move aside! Please!" Scanner's eyes narrowed. A crowd of spiders began to form around him. They all began to growl. "Woah, woah, woah. Where did they come from?!" "Charge!" Scanner squeaked from somewhere in the sea of spiders. And then everything went black for Sweetie Belle as millions of spiders crawled over her. She lives...I think. Well, if not, it would be pretty sad. (Everyone loves Sweetie Belle!)
