Twilight Gets a Puppy
Season2
By TDR
Ponyville Cymric-fidential,
prologue
[Ponyville schoolhouse, near the end of second winter and the start of real spring, no the weather team really means it this time.]
The mass of foals surge from the school house out into the yard excitedly gathering around a spindly pegasus colt.
Sweetiebelle and Scootaloo trot out after the stampede a moment or so later clearly downcast.
“Can you believe Feather Weight got his cutie mark?” Sweetiebelle sighed gesturing a hoof at the pegasus colt in particular. “ Feather Weight... BEFORE US!”
“It's a feather....” Spike chimed in as he waddled out.”What does it even mean?”
“I dunno.” Scootaloo sighed. “He said it has something to do with packing.”
“I think it was more putting things in boxes, I remember him mentioning something about boxes and rings, packing jewelry maybe?” Sweetiebelle added.
“That's what I said, though how he can put anything away with those cushioned hoof covers I'll never understand.” Scootaloo grumbled.
“Guys I got it!” Applebloom shouted skidding around the corner.”I know how we ken git our cutie mark.”
“I'll go see if Miss Cheerilee has any extra first aid kits.” Spike deadpanned.
“Shush you.” Applebloom chided as she tossed a paper to the ground before them.” Look it's the answer to our problems.”
“Foal free press? Hows this supposed to help us get our cutie marks?” Sweetiebelle demanded.
“Well there's a bunch of paper related cutie marks you could go for.” Spike shrugged.” Though knowing you three it'll involve fire and tree sap.”
“Seriously?” Scootaloo asked.
“Yer snarkier than usual today Spike.....”Applebloom questioned . “What's up with that?”
“Sorry. I'm exhausted. Rahs got a part again and he's been practicing it all night. Heck I can recite half the thing now.” Spike grumbled. “ Sing once again with me, a strange duet, my power over you, grows stronger yet. And though you turn from me, to glance behind.....”
The three stare at him as he sang out in a fairly melodic tone.
“What tha heck is that from?” Applebloom questioned.
“Specter of the theater or something.” Spike shrugged. “Whatever he dressed as for Nightmare Night the past few years. In either case his singing's getting annoying.”
“Any way, no, the idea is to work with the school paper as journalists, it's something that sounds like fun and it'll open a field of jobs in tha future if we're good enough to get a cutie mark in it.” Applebloom smiled.
“Plus if that fails you can always get your running from Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie cutie marks” Spike yawned.
“Why would we do that?” Scootaloo asked.
“They have poniratzi hunting permits.” Spike pointed out.
“We're not gonna be some weird pasta, we're gonna be journalists.” Applebloom crowed excitedly. “ Come on!”
“That's not....” Spike sighed as the trio had already run off.
“This is gonna be a long afternoon.”Spike grumbled waddling off after them.
Dis gonna be good.
Also.... I'm here to push for a Saturnia X Bees shipping! Known as Saturn-B.... Because its a rocketship
What happened to the default first aid kit?

It got used. I mean its already the end of the school day. Probably haven't had time to restock yet.
Immediately after reading this I had to go listen to Nightwish's rendition of Phantom of the Opera.
Thereafter I began imagining Trixie and Rahs playing the parts. It was totes adorbs.
I’m honestly surprised Sweetie Belle didn’t know the Phantom of the Opera… and a heart song didn’t break out once Spike started singing.
9492813
given how little he seems to know, his heart probably wasn't in it.
Well I can't wait to see how badly they screw this one up.
"Cymric-fidential"? I don't get the pun
Suuuuuurre
Yes, yes it will
9492901
i did a search for Cymric, apparently its a domestic cat breed, similar to a Manx
hmmmm I say "let the hunt begin"
also spike it not rainbow dash or pinkie pie they have to worry about, it Angel
This shall be interesting.
I trying to remember who else has paparazzi-hunting liscences. Angel definitely. Rahs?
great chapter.

Boulder has one. Maud was quite surprised at the vitriol her little pebble could muster and often has to hold him back from doing something violent from the otherwise peaceful stone.
9493065
Don’t all of em have one?

Angel Rahs Rainbow and Pinkie
The cmc become super successful because they ask permission and respect privacy.
9511852
Yes.
That's my sister's favorite play. I love that song. I have a massive grin on my face now.
The Phantom of the Opera is there, inside your mind.
One Cutie Marks are probably multilayerd in nature so the Pony has multible choices.
CMC TRASHCAN DIVERS
10921901
Wouldn't it be Cutie Mark Crusaders Dumpster Divers?
10955356
Good point. They are emotional in the dump often enough to make it happen
CMC Gambeling committee perhaps?
This is a reference to something, and for the life of me, I can't figure it out. What is it?

featherweight is a boxing class.
CMC will get themself kicked to next week if Angel Bunny get his paws on them.
