//------------------------------// // Chapter five - An honest friend gives good advice. // Story: Rainbow Sparkles // by Julyah //------------------------------// Rainbow kicked a rock on the dirt road. She was confuzed. She didint know what to do. Pinkie pie, Twilight and her probably werent even friends anymore. Should she try to fix that? She thought about it, trotting over to under an apple tree nearby. How could she do it? Maybe she would go over to Twilights and knock on the door... Nah, she'd prbably just get a hoof in the face. She could ask pinkie pie if she could bake a cake with her, and then while the oven was cooking it, she would ask... “Rainbow dash. Are y'all tryin' na steal mah apples?” Came a voice. Rainbow dash didint hear it, still deep in thought. Appljack approached, about to tell her pegasus friend off for stealing her month's harvest, but then she noticed her troubled expression. Rainbow Dash knew the orange pony was there, but she kept thinking. “Is everythin' alright, Rainbow?” She asked and sat down next to her. The pegasus found it hard to lie to her honest friend. She couldnt look her in the eye and tell her something that was'nt true. “No.” “Did somethin' happen?” She pressed. “Yeah.” “Would ya care da tell me?” Rainbow sighed. “Lets say you have this mare. And she's interested in colt number one. But theres another colt, colt number two. He's interested in the same mare, perhaps even more than colt number one is. But the mare thinks of him just as a friend. Colt number two somehow managed to spread the mare and the other colt apart. Now theyre all enemies. What should colt number two do?” Aj tapped her chin with her hoof. “Ah say that colt number one has to pony it up and go for it. If he can manage to get the mare and colt number one together, he should say that he's deeply sorry and that he didint mean for what happened to be. Then he should confess his love. If it is true and pure, then the rest will jus fall into place.” Rainbow nodded. She grinned and said a quick 'bye' to AJ. Then she galloped off, deep in thought. “Rainbow, you got yourself in quite a sticky situation there with Pinkie and Twilight.” Applejack thought, walking over to the north field of apples.
