//------------------------------// // Ch 3 - Hot and Heavy Action // Story: The Mane 6 Go to a Wonderbolt's Show | TwiDash Adventure // by Squiggly Cup //------------------------------// Applejack climbed up onto the top of the carriage, coming very close to falling. As she stood up on top she saw the two charging stallions look over their shoulders at her. "Now what are y'all gonna do" Applejack said, grinning towards them. In return they both grinned at each other before jumping right into zig zag patterns, knocking the carriage back and forth. Applejack stumbled on her hooves left and right and fell over. She rolled against the carriage off to the left, Applejack flung her hoof forward to catch the edge, dangling off the side of it. "Oh my, Applejack!" a lady like voice called out. As Applejack struggled to pull herself back up she looked behind her to see Rarity and some other stallion gaining on them with a chariot. "Rarity!" Applejack called out excitedly. Rarity's carriage picked up speed and shifted over to the left onto the oncoming lane. They slowly picked up enough speed before leveling out as they were just under Applejack. The farm pony let go of the carriage to drop onto the chariot, Rarity reached her hooves and grabbed Applejack to make sure she didn't stumble off. They both found their place on the chariot sitting beside each other seconds later. "Thank goodness y'all showed up Rarity, I might have been done for!" Applejack said happily, she tilted her hat towards Rarity with a smile. "It was no problem dear Applejack, all I had to do was use my feminine charm on this stallion. It's good to know I still have it in me" Rarity smiled back before slowly turning forward. Her smile quickly shifted to horror as another carriage came racing towards them in the oncoming road. "Move, move!" Rarity shouted, the garbage carriage was to their right, so the stallion was forced to shift over to the left onto the sidewalk. They took a hard turn to the left narrowly avoiding a street light. "Whoa nelly!' Applejack shouted as the carriage raced by them narrowly, just barely clipping the back of the chariot. It took off a few chunks of wood and shook them. The chariot kept the same pace as the garbage carriage, but now on the sidewalk. Pedestrians were diving left and right to avoid being run over screaming at them while they did so. The chariot was scraping against store buildings as they passed them, even hitting bushes planted on the sides. A tree branch even slapped Rarity in the face as they flew under a low hanging tree, much to Applejacks amusement. Rarity only glared at her friend to stop her giggling. The stallion found his opening and shifted back to the right, losing some speed to fall behind the carriage. "Get right up to tha' back, we'll go from you and jump!" Applejack yelled, the stallion nodded and raced forward until they were pony to bumper with them. Applejack went first climbing down and hopping onto the stallion. He grunted as her full weight fell on him, but she quickly hopped off and climbed back onto the carriage. Rarity hesitated but did the same, she jumped from the chariot to the stallion. Applejack extended her hoof, Rarity smiled at her but then looked at the fast moving ground below them. "Applejack I- i.." her eyes raised again to meet Applejack who wore a confident knowing smile. Rarity couldn't help but smile back at her, she felt a new vigor set in throughout her body as she prepared prepared to jump. "Ya gonna jump or what, my backs killin' me!" the stallion shouted. Rarity sheepishly smiled down at him before leaping forward and grabbing Applejack's hoof. She slowly pulled her light unicorn friend up on top of the carriage. "Alright, i'm gonna lower you onto the side so that you can climb in" Applejack said, Rarity nodded. They both steadily made their way over to the side. Applejack held her hoof and leaned over the carriage, gently draping Rarity down until she dangled beside the carriage. Rarity used her other free hoof to open up the carriage door and hop inside. She quickly lit up her horn attempting to locate the diamond, it didn't take long until she sensed it under a bunch of other trash bags. Rarity reached forward but stopped herself. "Rarity what's the hold up!?" "It's garbage.... and I just got a hooficure!" Rarity shouted back. Applejack facehoofed. "Gosh darnit, after all this now ya' chicken out? Would ya' just grab it!" she shouted back. Rarity relented, she reached a hoof forward hesitantly before shoving it into the pile of trash bags. She pulled out the bag she sensed it in and poured it out infront of her. Rarity looked at her hoof, and the filth, her hoof and then the filth. "I'm so sorry..." she whispered sadly to her hooves before sending them into the dirty muck. She slowly reached around for the ring, but not without yelling "ew ew ew ew eewww" over and over in her whining voice, Applejack only sighed with another facehoof. After a minute of pure tartarus for Rarity she found the ring, surprisingly still in good condition. Rarity looked over to the doorway and saw Applejack's hoof still dangling. Rarity took hold of it and Applejack pulled her back up. "Dude DUDE!" both mares looked to see the stallions freaking out. They looked ahead and saw that they were heading straight for a dead end, and at this speed, they were definitely not stopping in time. The chariot had fallen back too far and time was too short. "Rarity were jumpin!" "What? are you mad!?" Rarity yelled back. Applejack took her hoof and nodded towards her. "Maybe but it's our best bet, on three!?" Applejack yelled. Rarity looked around to take everything in, nothing really stood out as a better alternative so she turned back to Applejack. "Alright on three" Both mares approached the edge on the right side. They spoke simultaneously. "One" "Two!" "THREE!" both mares leaped off the side, their hooves still firmly holding onto each other. Applejack attempted to take the brunt of it and wrapped her hooves around Rarity, but they went tumbling regardless. They rolled for a few seconds, harshly hitting the concrete. After a few seconds on nothing Applejack opened one eye to find that they were actually still alive, she looked down to see Rarity smiling up at her. "I cannot believe that worked" Rarity laughed. "MOVE!" both mares turned their attention to the carriage. The two stallions attempted to run to the left but the carriage already had it's momentum. The stallions tucked and rolled but the carriage went forward slamming into a brick wall, and dragging the stallions across the ground with it by the ropes. The carriage exploded into chunks of wood and dirt and filth, covering the street in garbage. Applejack and Rarity both got to their hooves to run over and see the damage, as did several other ponies. "Oh dear are they alright.." Rarity muttered as she caught sight of the two stallion's laying on the ground. Both were still awake, and covered in gunk. One even had a banana peel on his head. "I think I sprained my leg" "I think I busted my hoof!" Both stallions slowly moaned in pain, neither feeling all too great. Rarity and Applejack nervously looked at each other and back at them. Many other ponies also showed their concern, going over and helping them sit up. A crowd had started to form around the scene. "Uh.. we should probably go..." Applejack muttered, Rarity eagerly nodded her head. "Yes, I think that would be wise.." Rarity turned to face their chariot which had now done a complete u-turn and was heading to anywhere that isn't here. Rarity just sighed dramatically before turning back to Applejack. "Alright, then I suppose were hoofin' it" Rarity declared, her and Applejack quickly and quietly ducked out into a nearby alley, disappearing into what was now coming closer to night. Both glad to have gotten out of that action unscathed. ______________________________________________________________________ Meanwhile another type of action was still happening, in the broom closet. Rainbow Dash and Twilight had been making out in there for a solid fourty five minutes Twilight noted, it was a new record. Lips locked, moaning in pleasure, both mares were having the time of their lives. Their manes were disheveled and messy at this point since they kept running their hooves through each other's manes. The broom closet had become considerably more warm, and somewhat musty as the two mares swapped saliva. They had kept themselves attached for all of those fourty-five minutes, wrapped in each other's hooves making out until the moon set, they're body heat rising considerably from all the close contact. Their tongues battled for dominance as they wrestled back and forth, neither daring to back down. Twilight pulled back, "I love you so much Rainbow" Rainbow smiled "I love you too" before diving back in, hungry for more Twilight. After five more minutes of "one of the hottest make out sessions ever" as Rainbow deemed it, they found themselves a visitor. The broom closet door opened to reveal the janitor from earlier. "Really? You two have been making out for-" he checked his watch "an hour now... How can you even breathe for that long!" he shouted. Twilight and Rainbow looked to him and back to each other, blushes very evident on both of their faces. They grinned at each other before Rainbow then turned to scowl at him before slamming the door shut in his face. Not a minute later they could be heard going at it again, the janitor merely shook his head in disapproval and stomped off. "I know i'm a janitor, but even I don't want to go in there when they're done" _____________________________________________________________ After their own personal 7 Minutes in Heaven, Rainbow Dash and Twilight were now out in the parking lot, it had gotten late and they still had no idea where their friends were. Both ponies looked considerably messy, their manes pointing out in different directions like they had just been skydiving. Then they noticed Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy approaching them. "Hey girls, where were you?" Twilight asked. "On an adventure!" Pinkie shouted excitedly. Twilight and Rainbow only shook their heads at Pinkie for being Pinkie. Rarity and Applejack were next to arrive, both had some scrapes and bruises. "Whoa what the hay happened to you guys?" Rainbow asked "Yeah you look like you just fought off a griffon army!" Pinkie shouted. "Are you alright?" Fluttershy softly asked, stepping forward to look at them. "We're quite alright darlings, but me and Applejack most definitely have a story to tell, but later. Twilight may I speak with you over here" Rarity said, Twilight nodded and followed her anxiously. "Oh right, I completely forgot about the ring. Especially with Rainbow and me... anyways let's hope this is good news Twilight thought. "Good news darling, we recovered your ring. It was quite the adventure accomplishing it but here it is" Rarity offered the ring to Twilight who happily took it. "Thank you Rarity thank you!" she said giddily, hugging Rarity. "and I really want to hear all about your adventure, but I have something to do first" Twilight said. "Of course dear, and might I just add that you and Rainbow really need to work on being more incognito with your eh.. private time" Rarity replied, making Twilight blush heavily. "What gave it away?" "Oh please dear, your manes look like you've just escaped a tornado and you're very sweaty. I'm willing to bet if you wore lipstick, Rainbow would have most likely shown up with lipstick smooches plastered all over her face" Rarity said while giggling, Twilight laughed too, her blush only growing. Soon after Twilight walked over and asked Rainbow to come walk with her. They didn't go very far, they both just headed over to a tree on the edge of the parking lot. Rarity told everypony to watch, so they did, they were too far away to hear them talking though. They watched as Twilight slowly put her hoof on Rainbow's shoulder, her mouth moving. Rainbow just stared at her, no emotion evident. After a few minutes Twilight reached out from behind her and pulled out the ring, showing it to Rainbow. The pegasus' mouth went wide opened as she stared down at the ring and at Twilight. Everypony watched happily as Rainbow quickly lunged forward to hug Twilight, who wrapped her arms around the unicorn like she never wanted to let go. It was hard to tell but from here but they could see something resembling tears in both ponies eyes. Everypony watched, big smiles plastered on their faces as they watched a beautiful moment between their friends. When the two returned everypony congratulated them, Applejack patted Rainbow on the back, Fluttershy gave her a hug, etc. Rainbow made a comment about the ring not really working since she didn't have a horn to put it on, but everypony "awwwed" when Rainbow said she'll just have to let her princess wear it for her before gently slipping it on her horn. The night didn't end there though, they all met up at a local burger joint nearby and discussed everything. "I can't believe you got an investor Pinkie!" Twilight shouted happily. "That's awesome Pinks" Rainbow added. "Yeah and ah can't believe ya told him to try the farm.." Applejack said in shock. "Yep, and let's just say you're chances are lookin' pretty good!" Pinkie said, as she gently nudged Applejack a few times with a grin. "Ah can't thank ya enough" Applejack said before wrapping Pinkie in a hug. "Speaking of thanks, thank you again you two for getting my ring back" Twilight said, as she looked to Rarity and Applejack. "It was no problem darling.... or well actually I suppose it was" Rarity said, making everypony chuckle since they had already been told of their crazy night. Rainbow Dash had practically fell on the floor, tears of laughter coming out, when Rarity told them about Applejack getting a sloppy kiss on the cheek. "I still can't believe I missed out on a high speed chase though" Rainbow added with a laugh. Then all eyes turned towards the burger place's doors when a little jingle went off signifying somepony entering. Applejack's eyes shot wide open as she realized that it was the stallion from earlier. Everypony else picked up on that and looked worriedly between him and Applejack. His eyes caught on to hers, and Applejack felt like it was a nightmare come true. "There you are Applebottom!" he called out as he trotted over. Aj looked stunned, it felt like death was coming to claim her. "Aj let's go!" Rainbow called out, everypony turned to find that Rainbow had opened up the window next to their booth and was already outside. Applejack smiled gratefully at her as she climbed out of the window with her. "Applebottom wait!" the stallion called out running back to the entrance. Applejack started to climb on Rainbow's back as she bent over. "Alright we'll see you girls later, i've got a rescue mission" Rainbow said, she gave a quick wink at towards Twilight. As soon as Applejack was settled, Rainbow took off at her signature speeds, her rainbow trail following in her wake. As they shot off into the sky the stallion ran across the street after them hopelessly shouting for them to wait, much to the amusement of everypony else.
