The light from Discord's magic was blinding to Rarity, she had to cover her eyes just to keep the light from blinding her. She could feel the whole area around them spinning faster and faster, as they traveled through time. They eventually stopped spinning and found themselves inside of city hall, which was being decorated for the upcoming Summer Sun Celebration.
"I remember this. This was the day I first met Spike and Twilight." said Rarity as she looked at the decorations. She then spotted her past self, standing on the stage going through different colors of ribbon. She then ducked underneath one of the tables, in fear of being seen.
"What are you doing?" asked Discord.
"What am I doing? What are you doing? Get down before I see you." whispered Rarity as she pulled him under the table.
"We don't need to hide Rarity. They can't see or hear us, watch." said Discord as he teleported in front of the past Rarity and changed into a futuristic black suit of armor. "No. I am your mother." said Discord in a deep raspy voice, but Rarity was unable to see or hear him. "See."
"Ok, if you say so." said Rarity cautiously, as she stepped out from underneath the table. "So why did you bring me here?"
"To show you how this all started. Speaking of which, it should be starting in three, two, one." counted Discord, as he did Spike and Twilight enter into the main hall.
"Decorations. Beautiful......" said Spike dreamily.
"Yes, the decor is coming along nicely. This should be quick. I'll be at the library in no time. Beautiful indeed." said Twilight.
"Not the decorations, her!” exclaimed Spike as he pointed to Rarity. "How are my spines? Are they straight?"
"Ooooooh he was so cute back then." said Rarity.
" Is she really this oblivious?" thought Discord as he face palmed himself.
"Good afternoon..." said Twilight.
"Just a moment, 'I am in the zone', as it were. Oh yes, sparkles always does the trick." said past Rarity as she tied a ribbon to a column.
"Sparkles? Please, everypony knows that sequins are the new thing." said Rarity, appalled that her past self would use something three seasons old.
"Focus Rarity, remember why we are here." said Discord trying to get her back on track.
"Oh my, darling! What ever happened to your coiffure?" asked past Rarity, surprised by Twilight's messy mane.
"Oh, my mane? It a long story. I am just here to check on the decorations, which look...."
"Beautiful." said Spike looking at Rarity with hearts in his eyes.
"Yes, what he said. So we will be going now, so we can get out of your hair." said Twilight.
"Out of my hair? What about yours? Come with me, I will have you looking gorgeous in no time." said past Rarity as she pushed Twilight out of city hall.
"Spike, help Me." begged Twilight, but Spike could not hear her. He was too focused on Rarity to notice anything else.
"Awww look how cute he was when he first met you. So smitten by you that he levitated off the ground." said Discord mocking Spike.
"Oh hush now. I think it's quite adorable that he thought I was beautiful." defended Rarity.
"Thought you were beautiful? Oh my dear Rarity, you have much to learn." said Discord. He then teleported them into Rarity's boutique, and watched as past Rarity made Twilight try on different dresses, while Spike held the discarded dresses in one claw and grabbed the dresses Rarity would ask him to get with the other.
"Oh, Spike was it? Will you please hand me that yellow dress?"
"Yes most beautiful one." said Spike as he handed the new dress to Rarity.
"Thank you. Oooh aren't you just the cutest little thing I have ever seen." complimented past Rarity, as she patted Spike's head. "Oh good heavens no, that is way too much yellow." She then proceeded to pass Twilight another dress to try on.
"And so began the four long years of you using him as your own personal servant." said Discord as he made a small butler's outfit appeared on Spike.
"I do not use him as a servant. He always volunteers to assist me." protested Rarity.
"Sure, you keep telling yourself that. You'll see how much pain you cause him."
"Whatever do you mean? I have never have harmed him." protested Rarity.
"You'll see what I mean soon enough." said Discord, sinisterly. They then turned their attention back to Spike, who was still in a love sick trance.
"Emeralds?! Whatever was I thinking? Let me get you some rubies!" said past Rarity as she walked over to her jewel chest.
"Quick! Before she tries to dye my coat a different color!" said Twilight as she galloped towards the exit, but Spike just stood there and sighed as he watched Rarity search for some rubies. "Spike. Spike!" yelled Twilight trying to pull him out of his trance, but he did not respond. She then levitated him with her magic, and placed him on her back and galloped out of the shop. Discord then teleported himself and Rarity to the Golden Oak Library, during Twilight and Spike's welcome to Ponyville party. Twilight had already retreated to her and Spike's room, to avoid socializing with the other ponies, but Spike stayed and tried to talk with Rarity. Sadly she was too oblivious to notice him, unlike Fluttershy who wanted to know more about the dragon.
"It's kind of sad, the one pony he really wanted to talk too wouldn't even acknowledge him." said Discord, a bit sympathetic towards Spike.
"I was distracted with everything going on. I didn't mean to ignore him." said Rarity, trying to justify her actions.
"Right, whatever helps you sleep better at night, speaking of sleep." Discord then teleported both of them into a large library.
"Discord, where are we?" asked Rarity.
"We are in Spike's brain, the Hippocampus to be precise. This is where all his memories are stored, he must have organized all of them so it would look like a library." said Discord as he looked around the 'library'.
"Why did you bring me here?"
"To show you something, follow me." Discord then lead Rarity down a long aisle of filing cabinets, until they reached a large cabinet marked Rarity. He then teleported on top of it and began to search through the papers inside. Discord eventually found what he was looking for and jumped down to show Rarity what he was searching for. "This is his first dream he had ever had in Ponyville. This was what he dreamed about while you and your friends where off trying to find the Elements of Harmony." said Discord as he showed Rarity the image on the paper.
"It was about me. But who are they?" asked Rarity as she pointed to the image of a large purple dragon who had his tail wrapped around her, while fighting a tall black alicorn mare.
"That is Spike. He was dreaming of protecting you from Nightmare Moon." answered Discord.
"Awww that so sweet." said Rarity, oblivious to the true meaning of the dream. This caused Discord to facepalm himself again.
"You still don't get it, do you?" asked Discord, he then sighed and started to cast the spell, to take them to their next destination. "This going to be a very long day."
Oh man I can't wait for more!!!
Good job there!
HA! Star Wars reference I like it so far. I'm new to fan fiction writing myself. I only started on this site last week and I'm almost done with my first story, but I know haw hard it is. I look forward to seeing where this goes.
Wonderful, keep up the good work!
This keeps being interesting
Nice start. Frankly, I don't like the idea of changing an episode (like 'Heart and Hooves Day').
in 'Rarity and the Curious Case of Charity' chapter book spike falls(ish) for Charity and rarity gets all jelly over it you might look in to that as a chapter.
Is Discord doing this because he started to be altruistic out of nowhere? Or he feel same way toward other pony just like Spike? It would make sense instead being good for no reason or being expert on love even when never experiencing it
4805529 he is not doing this just to be good. He has his reason for doing this, but for the time being I going to keep his reasons for doing this to myself. Sorry
Discord is right. This is going to be a very long day.
Something tells me that there is going to take a lot of hammering before there is even some much as a crack in Rarity's thick skull.
4805839 sadly your right
For "Rarity Take Manehattan", perhaps go into Spike's thoughts as he is carrying all the luggage, thinking "anything for Rarity", and when she gives him the hot-carrot-thing that is taken from by the bird, he is enraged by it being a gift from Rarity.
It's not much, but it's a start for a chapter.
4805866 thanks I will write that in.
4805875 And perhaps add in "Boast Busters", with Spike freaking out about the mustache.
Thanks for considering my idea.
4805896 welcome I will see what I can do about Boast buster. I might just reference it because of lack of material for me to use for an entire chapter on.
Sweet and Elite sounds like a good choice, to me. Spike could hear about how Rarity liked Fancy Pants and feel jealous about the whole thing. Discord could show Rarity how upset he was and how Spike needed to step up his game before Fancy took her away.
4805983 ok I will think about it.
Hmm... Not bad. I'm without questioned hooked. Please continue while I click the fave button to await for further up dates.
Niceee :'D
if you need help for the crystal empire, why not have spike literally drooling as soon as he sees crystallized rarity? as for power ponies, that one will be a tricky one. although it did have them in it, they were cast in the roles of the comic book characters. they gave the comic characters their own "real" attitudes, characterizations, and how they would react, but you still have to keep in mind the actual character being played.
Meh, I felt like I was listening to google translater's voice.
At least for Dog and Pony Show you can show A. his imaginings of being her knight and saving her and B. all of hi efforts in real life to save her
oh rarity how completely blind you are
u r soooooooooooooo hopeless rarity
Oh Rarity, you're as clueless as me when it comes to noticing that someone likes you...
4808375 From what I heard the writers originally said it was non-canon then sometime later they turned around and said that it was canon.
4809467 This surprises you in what way lol
So far so good, although it feels like it could get quite repetitive if we're going through fourteen chapters with Rarity just being completely oblivious.
4810256 she won't be like this for to long
Discord if the comics are anything to go by (Specifically Discord helping the CMC out for a bit) you should know how to do a proper face palm by now!
Rarity... duh! (facepalmed yourself... very strong.)
Wait, what about "It's About Time" where at the start of the episode, Spike was dreaming about Rarity and an Ice-cream house? Are you gonna add that in too?
I think I recognise this
4813701 Star Wars reference
4813764 I KNEW IT!
A few grammar errors, but an amazing story so far. Love the plotline of it.
Hold on. Ahem.
ALLL OF THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's what I recommend you do.
Ok I'm raving this. And I'm thinking a double facepalm for Rarity being oblivious is called for.
i don't really like the idea of changing the "hearts and hooves day" episode, but you can explain it away with a couple lines of diolog.
Rarity : I don't remeber this ever happening?
Discord : woops. I guess i took us to a parallel dimention by accident, but either way this is useful so watch on!
that has it make sence, but still keep "hearts and hooves day" roughly the same. but hey it's your story do what you will with it!
4816775 actually I have desided to leave Hearts and Hooevs day like it is but have it that cmc try the potion again on Spike and Rarity.
4817018 4817018 oh so they just made another potion and used it on rarity and spike. kind of like a this happened between episodes type of thing. good idea, and it does sound like something the cmc would do. those filies never learn .
4817265 so true
Please!
Moar...
I must know what happens.
Pwease /)^3^(\
PS: Sparity FOREVER
AHHHH update soon PLZ!!!! I it!!! MOAR!
Rarity might consider bring up the incident of 'Spike at your Service' as counter evidence that spike does not have a crush on her while Discord uses it as evidence of how she treats Spike and more of Spike's devotion
I love it, I love it, I love everything about it!
You sir, deserve a moustache
Rarity: Noooooo!!!
Wow. Rarity is acting kinda oblivious in this fic. Oh great, now the Rarity fanboys are gonna kill me!! Everyone run for the hills! The fanboys are going on a head-hunt!
Well shit, why am I not surprised?
