> Truth or Scare > by RainbowJack2000 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Party Planner > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Rainbow," a blond girl with a sweet sounding southern accent called out, "Slow down! Ma helmet's about to fly off with ya speedin' like that!" Her heart was nearly pounding out of her chest and her hair flying freely into the wind, as she was on the back off her best friend's motorcycle. The rainbow haired girl could care less about how fast she was going. Only hearing the sound of her friend's frantic pleads wanted her to go faster. She loved the way the wind made her feel free and that she was the only person in the world... if only that could ever happen. "Come on, Applejack. It's a motorcycle, it's supposed to go fast," she shouted back, still going faster than usual. Applejack was trying so hard not to scream, mainly because she has never been on a vehicle so fast before, especially since there was no protection around it. She held on tight around Rainbow Dash and buried her head in RD's back. Rainbow Dash turned around when she stopped at the gleaming red stoplight. "You okay back there?" she asked, sheepishly grinning and her paranoid friend. "Are...w-we home yet?" Applejack stuttered and shivered until she saw what was in front of her. A long, steep hill that could easily pass off as a mountain was a good 2 minutes away. She tapped Rainbow's shoulder, pointed, and whimpered like Fluttershy, their timid, shy friend, always did. Rainbow, however, was not scared at all and only chuckled when she saw what was in front of her. "Hold on tight, AJ. You're going to be in for the ride of your life." Applejack wasn't taking any chances. She frantically looked around for a bus stop, realizing it was only more cars around her. She sighed on held on real tight, in fact she was so close around RD's chest, the way her hands were around her. RD blushed when she realized this and shook her head, just to get out the dirty, perverted thoughts out. Finally, the obstacle had arrived, the moment she's been waiting for. She licked her lips in anticipation, ready for what was about to come. The hill was long and steep, all right. The plunge down is like you were riding a roller coaster, like the Batman themed one at Six Flags. Of course, this was no roller coaster, plus there was no protection to keep you from falling out of the cart. Rainbow Dash stopped at the top of the hill and looked at Applejack, who was looking around, her emerald green eyes buldging out of their sockets. Her eyes were full of fright and she was trying to calm down. Rainbow Dash took her foot of the brake and leaned forward, her head looking at her scared friend, "See there's nothing to be afraid ooooooooooof!!!" The motorcycle was rolling down the hill, faster than you can say "cat." Of course, the two girls were screaming their heads off like little girls would. There were people on the sidewalks, looking confused on why they were screaming like that. Rainbow tried to put her foot on the brake, but it didn't stop. Meanwhile on Sunshine ave, an old lady was crossing the street so slowly, a tortoise could have beaten her in any race. She was halfway across when: "Look out!" a voice called. Rainbow Dash and Applejack (still screaming) were going faster than ever. The old lady looked in their direction and only gasped at what was coming her way. She tried to walk faster, but due to the fact she was around 100 years old, she only went at her top speed: 0.9 miles per hour. Rainbow Dash slammed her foot against the brake and this time it worked, however the stop was violent and when it actually did stop, it was dangerously close to the old lady. Her face was all wrinkled up, her skin a pale pinkish-peach and her hair white as ever. She waved her cane at them, calling them rude names, and two men carried her off onto the sidewalk. "That...was...AWESOME!" Rainbow Dash yelled, although she was still trying to catch her breath. "Awesome? That old lady could have been killed! This is the last time I'm ever gonna ask a ride from ya." Applejack cried out. "Don't worry, you'll thank me later. Sweet Apple Acres is 3 minutes away," she said, driving a little bit slower this time. Sweet Apple Acres is a farm much farther away from town. There were hundreds of apple orchards, filling the air with nothing but sweet, succulent apple scents of all sorts. The barn was a pinkish-red, always being re-painted every year. The animals were all dirty, but the only thing that could wash it off was a big greeting from their caretakers. It was always quiet, warm, and peaceful. The loud roar of the motorcycle pulling up was the only sound that destroyed the peaceful place. Rainbow Dash helped Applejack off and started laughing on how messed up her hair was. Applejack also had a wedgie from sitting on there for so long. She took off the helmet and threw it at Rainbow Dash. Hard. RD didn't seem to care though and she put it under the seat storage section. Suddenly, three little girls came out of the barn, all wide-eyed and grinning so much. "Hey Rainbow Dash!" the fuchsia haired girl said. "Hey Applejack!" a red head with the large pink bow said. "Hey...um...uh...yeah, what they said!" the pink and purple curly haired girl said. "Hey guys, wassup?" Rainbow Dash asked as if nothing ever happened. "We saw you two on the news," Sweetie Belle said, "It was awesome!" "What do ya mean ya saw us on the news?" Applejack asked, worry in her voice. "Duh, big sis. When you guys were rolling down the hill!" Apple Bloom chanted. "WHAT?!" The girls yelled. They rushed inside and looked on the television, and there stood the scene of when Rainbow Dash and Applejack were screaming, rolling down the hill. The news woman said that no harm was done but if the girls stepped foot in town, there would be hundreds of interviewers. Suddenly, Applejack's cell phone was ringing and she answered the call. "Hello?" she asked. "What the hell happened to you guys out there?!" the voice screamed back so loud, everyone heard her. "Hey, I'm not the one you should be pestering," she replied angrily, "Blame Rainbow Dash! She took her foot off the brake!" The girl on the other side of the phone call was yelling and nagging them that they should have been more careful and responsible. Applejack finally hung up. Rainbow Dash was on Facebook on her phone and relaxing on the couch. "Who was that?" she asked. "Twilight, as usual." Applejack growled. She looked up and saw AJ tapping her foot with her arms crossed, the 3 girls mocking her and doing the same. "Can I help you?" Rainbow Dash said finally. "Girls, go outside." Applejack firmly said. "But-" Scootaloo started. "Now." Applejack shot back. The girls hung their heads low and slowly walked out the door, closing it behind them. Applejack turned back to Rainbow Dash, who was getting up this time. Although she was the same height as Applejack, that still wouldn't stop AJ from kicking and slapping her in places that shouldn't be kicked or slapped. She was strong, that is why. "What's up?" Rainbow Dash spoke, coolly nonchalant. " "What's up?" Our faces are on the news, that's what's up! What if the principal finds out about this? Ma ass will get whooped if I get in trouble just fer that!" Applejack bickered on and on about the consequences. "Chillax, Applejack. The principal can't do anything about it. It was outside of school, remember? Besides, nothing bad will happen to us, really. It wasn't speeding or anything. I just accidentally took my foot off the brake." Applejack started to calm down a bit and sighed, "I suppose you're right. I'm sorry I overreacted." "It's okay...Hey, we're all alone! Don't suppose you could give me a little reward," Rainbow Dash put her arms around Applejack's waist, pulling her closely and started rocking her back and forth, "you know, for the ride," she whispered in Applejack's ear. Applejack's face was flushed red and she didn't know what to say. Now see, Rainbow Dash isn't a lesbian like some people think she is. She actually has a crush on a boy at school, but that will come up later on. She usually plays around with Applejack, acting like she is a lesbian, not all the time anyway, but at least once a day. Her other friends are so oblivious to that situation (except Rarity...again, different story). They knew Rainbow Dash was a badass tomboy and everything, but they never thought she would be like that. "Rainbow, I..." Applejack started. "Eeyup," a voice called out. The girls froze and stopped whatever they were doing. Up on the rickety, old steps was Big McIntosh, Applejack's older brother, who was watching the whole thing unfold. "Big Mac! H-how much did you see?" Applejack studdered. Rainbow saw the look on her face and chuckled a bit. "Not much...just the part where RD puts her arms around your waist and everything," he said, smirking a bit. "Well, look at the time! My dad is gonna kill me if I'm not home! Bye guys!" Rainbow's face was full of embarrassment and she ran out the door, almost tripping over a little pebble on her way back on to the motorcycle. She took her helmet and drove back as fast as she could. The next day at school, everyone seemed to know about the motorcycle incident. When those two walked through the door, everyone was clapping and cheering for them. They tried to pass through the halls of crowded kids who were either taking pictures or shaking their hands. Finally, they got to where their friends where waiting for them. "Hey guys," Rainbow said, flipping her usual messy rainbow colored hair. "Darlings, why didn't you tell me you were famous just for some incident? I need fame and glory myself, you know," Rarity said, putting on lipstick. Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes. "OMG! Dashie and Jackie are famous?! This calls for a celebration!" Pinkie Pie cheered as she threw streamers and confetti into the air. "No Pinkie, we're not famous. It was some silly accident. Nothin' much to it." Applejack explained. "Aww, no fair." she pouted. "Hey! I just had a brilliant idea! How about we have a slumber party at my place to celebrate?" Rainbow Dash said, excitedly. "A slumber PARTY?! I am soooo there! Count me in Dashie!" Pinkie said, jumping up and down in place. "A slumber party! Eeeeek! I'm never been to one of those!" Twilight squealed. "I wonder why," Rainbow said. Applejack elbowed her in the gut. "I'd love to go! Count me in, too!" Twilight said. "Count me out! A slumber party at Rainbow Dash's? Doesn't seem very...clean," Rarity shuddered, "Besides, I got invited to Soarin's eighteenth party. I'll be having all the fun." "You can do makeovers to the girls and give us fashion advice," Rainbow said, knowing this would be the only way to win the fashion diva over. "Well, I guess I could come over...but if it isn't fun, I'm going to the party." Rarity folded her arms. "Excellent! How about you Fluttershy?" she said, rubbing her hands. "A s-s-slumber party? Uh...I don't know, guys. Y-you know how m-much I hate social g-gatherings!" Fluttershy stuttered. "Oh, come on! We're your friends! It's not like it's really a party!" Rainbow said. "Silly Dashie! It's a slumber party! Therefore, it is a party," Pinkie explained. "Come on Fluttershy, please? You can bring Angel if you want." Rainbow begged. "I-I don't know. He hates those things too!" she said, shrinking back. Rainbow Dash face-palmed and shook her head. Rarity sighed and tapped Fluttershy's shoulder, "Darling, don't worry. You will be fine. After all, it's a simple little sleepover." Fluttershy thought about it for a second, then she sighed and nodded. "Count me in, too." she said, finally. "What about you AJ? Care to join us?" Rainbow asked. "A slumber party about somethin' as dumb as rollin' down the hill, almost killin' an old lady? No way!" she exclaimed. "Come on, Applejack...after all, you still owe me a reward for riding you home yesterday." Rainbow grinned uncontrollably and raised an eyebrow. Applejack's face turned as red as a tomato as she remembered what had crashed their private conversation yesterday. She sighed and glared at Rainbow. "I so hate ya for this," she mumbled. "Yay! Slumber Party 101 is gonna happen tomorrow night, since it will be Saturday! There will be chips and ice cream, games, truth or dare, makeovers...ugh, barfaroni and cheese on a dirty plate. Anyway, and pizza and video games and listening to funky music and telling ghost stories!" "You forgot one thing," Rarity said, now filing her nails. "What now?" Rainbow asked, irritated that her fantasy was being interrupted. "You forgot talking about boys," she replied, pointing to a boy who was walking across the hall. All the girls looked to see a boy with navy blue hair that looked windswept hair wearing a shirt with a lightning bolt with wings. His pants were ripped, light blue jeans, and black and blue Osiris sneakers. He walked up to the girls and stopped. "Hey guys. 'Sup Rainbow Dash?" he said with a crooked smile. "Soarin, I am a lady. I am no "guy"." Rarity said, now texting. "When will I ever hear the end of that?" he said, chuckling, "AJ, I heard you and RD were rolling down a hill in a motorcycle. Was it fun?" "Fer me it wasn't," AJ grumbled. "It was totally awesome! Like 20% cooler than all the other times I rolled down a hill with my motorcycle," Rainbow said, beaming with her cheeks red as ever. "Wait...what?" AJ asked, confused. "Cool. I gotta go. See you later," he said, walking down the hall. Rainbow stared at him, clutched her heart, and sighed, swooning over the hunk that had just left their conversation. None of her friends knew she had a massive crush on him (except Rarity of course). When they saw what happened, Applejack put on that Spongebob face. "You like Soarin, don't you Rainbow?" "Pfft, no way...why? Is it obvi?" "Mmhmm," the girls said, nodding their heads. "Whatever. See you gals at the slumber party. It's going to be so awesome!" Rainbow cheered. As soon as the bell rang, everyone rushed off to their class. > Fluttershy, you no-gooder you. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The cafeteria was loud and boastful as usual, although Rarity preferred it to be quiet and peaceful. All the girl sat at their table, talking and laughing until an unexpected visitor stood at their table. Everyone looked up and saw a boy with his lunch tray, looking back at them. "Hey ladies, mind if I sit here? The guys all went to hit on the cheerleaders, so I'm kind of all alone," Soarin asked. "Sure!" "No!" Rarity and Rainbow said at the same time (guess who said what). They looked at each other, then at their friends, then at Soarin, who was clearly dumbfounded. "Um...I don't follow," he said, clueless. "Of course you can sit at our table, right Rarity?" Rainbow glared at her fashionable friend, cocking on eyebrow. "But we were discussing...ugh, nevermind!" she spat. "Sorry Soarin, she's usually not this mean," Twilight explained, patting Rarity's shoulder. "Riiiiight, well you can continue your conversations, I won't be a bother," he sat and started eating. "Anywho, last week I started again! Ugh, I didn't even know until I got home from school! It was...THE...WORST...POSSIBLE...THING!" Rarity complained. Rainbow Dash, somehow, was now on Rarity's side of the table, rising up like a random person. "Oooh, someone's having a blood conversation!" she said. Then they heard coughing from the end of the table and looked to see Soarin was choking on a pie piece and hacked it onto the table. They looked at each other, then Soarin. This was Rarity's response: "Ew." "That there is the nastiest thing I've ever seen. But not as nasty as seein' Granny Smith nak- er, nevermind." Applejack said, finishing her hamburger. "Applejack, a lady never talks about disgusting things such as an old hag being naked," Rarity huffed. "Oh and talking about your period isn't disgustin'? Face it, Rarity. A lady isn't always lady-like." Applejack sneered. Rarity flipped her hair and continued eating her homemade food: rice with steak, spinach, and caviar. Fluttershy got up to throw her remaining food in the garbage, when she bumped into some guy. "Oh, please excuse me," she said, quietly. "Why don't watch where you're going Cluttershy?" the guy shoved Fluttershy. She started to have tears in her eyes, and then she had a mad expression on. She dumped her tray of leftover food on his head and shoved him into the wall, something only Rainbow Dash would only do. The girls' jaws dropped and so did the rest of the cafeteria. "Why don't you watch where you're going, bub?" she said, angrily. The guy was afraid now and he took off, running to the bathroom like a baby. When the cafeteria door slammed, everyone was clapping and cheering Fluttershy on. She sat at her seat with a happy expression on and looked at the girls with their blank expressions on. "Why so shocked? Rainbow Dash has been giving me assertive lessons for weeks now instead of going to that Iron Will seminar thing." she said, playing with her hair. All the girls (except RD) shouted, "THAT TOTALLY EXPLAINS EVERYTHING!" "Wowie Fluttershy! I never thought you would pull off a super fun stunt like that! It was totally cool! Should we throw a party to celebrate?" Pinkie asked, taking out more streamers and confetti. "Um...no, not yet...if that's okay with you," she replied. Rainbow Dash, who finally broke out of her daze, hugged Fluttershy, "You make me so proud!" "Can't...breathe...Help...me!" Fluttershy gasped. "Oops," Rainbow let go of Fluttershy, "Sorry." "I can't believe it Rainbow! Ya train' Fluttershy to be so assertive. Maybe I should take some lessons mahself," Applejack pondered. "It would be my reward then. You know why?" Rainbow asked. "Why?" Applejack asked, drinking her milk. "'Cause Fluttershy did half of those assertive trainings in a bra and underwear, and boy did she look good!" Applejack+Rarity+Soarin=SPIT-TAKE! Rainbow Dash laughed so hard, tears were coming out of her eyes, "You should have seen the looks on your faces. Priceless! I was only kidding...or was I? I can already imagine you only wearing that AJ. MMMMM." she said, cracking up so more. Applejack's face was all red and no words came out. To break the silence, Soarin spoke up. "A-are you guys coming over to my b-day party tomorrow?" "Sorry Soarin. We're having a slumber party to celebrate the motorcycle incident, plus AJ still owes me a reward for driving her home; my reward was being interrupted by her brother. Aaaah memories," Rainbow said, running her fingers threw her messy, long hair. "You can always crash it, no biggie. Looks like the boys are back, I gotta go guys. See you tomorrow, maybe." Soarin walked to his usual table, sitting down and laughed at the guys' sad expressions. "Why Rainbow?" Rarity said. "Why what?" she replied back. "A lady never stoops so low and says she's seen her friend in her undergarments just to get everyone else surprised," she shot back. Fluttershy (for once) rolled her eyes and replied back, "It was only a harmless joke Rarity...if it's okay with you." "I can't believe you would stand up for her!" Rarity gasped, with a humph, crossed her arms and turned around. Applejack's face was cooling down and she sighed, shaking her head. "I think that's enough dirty jokes fer today. I can't take it anymore. What do y'all have next?" "Gym," everyone replied. The bell rang and everyone took off in their underwear (just kidding). The changing room was filled with a bunch of girls. They were on the other side of the room because they really didn't trust Rainbow Dash snooping in their rooms. Rainbow scowled as she remembers this while taking off her shirt. "You make one fucking mistake of looking to see if one of the stalls were vacant..." her voice trailed off. "Don't worry, sugarcube. Hey, I stayed with you. Isn't that somethin'?" AJ said. "I guess." she said, looking at her topless friend. And yes, she had a bra on. Rainbow Dash got up and put her shorts and shirt on, fixing her Jordans. Then, she walked over, until she was still very close to AJ. Applejack turned around, shocked to see how close her friend was. "Can I help ya?" she asked. "Well...the reward doesn't have to be a present or anything. I'm a full blown lesbian, ya know," "What are ya goin' on about? You have an obvious crush on Soarin...right?" Rainbow Dash grabbed Applejack by the waist and whispered closely in her ear and said: "Firmly grasp it." Applejack shoved Rainbow Dash off, her rainbow headed friend laughing so hard, that their other friends came to see what all the noise was about. "What's going on? Are we having a book discussion?" Twilight asked. Rainbow Dash and Applejack looked at each other, then at their friends, and rolled their eyes. "What happened, silly billies?" Pinkie asked. Rainbow Dash laughed, "Oh nothing. Just giving AJ a friendly jester, ya know." Rarity soon realized what that meant and gasped and ran over to AJ, "What did she say to you? You're not violated are you?" "No, I wasn't." Applejack said. "Chillax Rares, I was joking around as usual." Rainbow said. While they were arguing, Fluttershy was standing by the lockers and she saw a couple of girls laughing and pointing at her. "Well, well, well, look who we have here," one of them said. "It's the loser who thought she was big and tough in the wittle cafetewia," the other one said, mimicking a baby voice. "I don't talk like that," Fluttershy said, backing away. "Whatever. You're nothing but a wimpy little bitch, sucking on guys' dicks every night. People should really call you Sluttershy. Really, you are such a loser." the first one said. A tear ran down Fluttershy's cheek and she bursted into tears. So much for assertive training. "Hey!" a voice called out. The two girls turned around and saw Rainbow Dash right behind her. "Leave her alone," she said, firmly. "Or what?" the other one muttered. "Or my fist," *cracks knuckles*, "Makes contact with your jaw." "Well, now we have a lesbian stepping up for the slut? What more could we ask for?" the first one said. The other girls from the rooms were coming out, wanting to know what was going on. "What's going on?" someone asked. "Hehe, Bitch fight." Pinkie replied. "Pinkie! Watch your mouth!" Twilight snapped. "Hey!" a softer voice called. The other girls turned around and BAM! A fist punched one of them in the face. "OW! My nose was a Christmas gift!" she cried. "And my fist is the gift receipt because you need to return it," Fluttershy yelled, "I am not a slut and she definitely is no lesbian, you poor sack of lonely bitches. Now if you don't mind, I have gym class to attend. So make like a fucking bee and buzz the fuck off." Then Fluttershy opened the door and slammed it shut. "Oh," Rarity said. "My," Applejack said. "Fucking," Rainbow said. "Goody-gumdrops," Pinkie squealed. "Gosh," Twilight finished. They looked at the girl holding her nose, shrugged, and left along with the rest of the gym class. Rainbow Dash grabbed Fluttershy by the arm and hugged her tight. "Fluttershy, you no-gooder you! You saved my ass back there!" "Again...can't...breathe!" she gasped again. Rainbow let go of her and patted her head, sitting in the criss-cross applesauce position. The girl who Fluttershy punched was talking to the gym teacher, who turned around and gasped. "Fluttershy, to the guidance, now!" she yelled. Everyone looked at Fluttershy, who now was getting up and walking towards the door. "Uh-oh," Rainbow said. > "Hooray Slumber Party!" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- When school was over, the girls were waiting outside the guidance office. Fluttershy came out, beaming more than usual. Rarity rushed over to her and pinched her cheeks. "Are you alright? Did you get detention? Are you going to be suspended? What happened? Spill, girlfriend, SPILL!" Fluttershy blinked and took Rarity's hands off her face, "Actually, I got none of those." "Huh?" Everyone was surprised. "I told her that I stood up for what I believed in and she let me free. She wasn't even going to call my parents about it." she squealed. "Phew." everyone said in unison. "School's over and I have soccer practice. I get to stare at Soarin all I want. EEEEEEK!!" Rainbow said, running away like a crazed maniac. Everyone looked at her taking off and shook their heads. Never have they seen her act so girly before. Ever. Not even when they were all in preschool. "I have work on the farm to do, so I'll see you guys later," Applejack said, and with that she walked away. "I have work to do at Carousel Boutique. My mom wants me to help design a wedding dress for a very impatient...patient. Ta-ta!" Rarity sashayed off. "Pinkie and I are going to take care of some animals at the vet. Would you like to come Twilight?" Fluttershy asked. "Yeah! I totally promise it'll be totally fun!" Pinkie begged. "Sorry guys but I have to do...um stuff. I have to study for...a quiz!" Twilight said, nervously. "But, we all have the same classes together. There's no mention of a quiz." Fluttershy reminded her. "Look! A squirrel!" Twilight said, pointing to the field. "OOH! Where?!" Pinkie exclaimed excitedly. When they realized there really was no squirrel, Twilight was already gone. Twilight slammed the door behind her as she entered the library. Her friend, Spike, was startled by the enormous slam and turned around. He saw Twilight run up the stairs until she reached her apartment. He followed her and knocked on her door. She opened it and had that crazy face on. "Spike! Just the guy I wanted to see!" she said, pulling him into her apartment. "Uh...what exactly for, Twilight?" he asked, scratching his head. "I need your help to organize things for Rainbow Dash's slumber party tomorrow. I want to make sure I have good games to play!" she replied, throwing out her suitcase. "Rainbow's throwing a slumber party? I never thought that day would come. But I thought you guys were going to Soarin's party tomorrow night." "Oh we are...well, maybe. He said we can crash it if we want or whatever. Now help me pack!" The next morning, Rainbow Dash was up early so that the house would look ready for the slumber party. She started by cleaning her room and then the house. Next she ran out to buy snacks. There was a variety to chose from: Doritoes, Lays, Funyuns, White-cheddar popcorn, marshmallows, you name it. She decided to get to of each with some sodas and apple cider-the un-alcoholic one, just so you know. It came up to a price of fifty dollars. She took her father's credit card earlier and decided to use that instead of her own money. Later in the evening, all was peaceful at Sweet Apple Acres. Apple Bloom was gone with her friends at the park with Granny Smith. Big Mac sat down to watch TV, but as soon as he did: "Big Mac! I need yer help fer somethin!" Applejack yelled from upstairs. With a long, heavy sigh, Big Mac hauled himself from the couch and up the rickety old steps to go to his sister's room. Now AJ doesn't have your dream room as some girls (like me) would want. Her room was a nice bright shade of orange with light green curtains, a white rug and a twin sized canopy, except without the top (again, like me). Her dresser with a mirror was a light brown and kind of crooked. Granny Smith was getting old to set up mirrors, anyway. She had a small closet big enough to hold at least 30 clothes in it. She was pacing around the room until her brother showed up. "Eeyup?" he asked. She picked up two of her shirts, both orange: "Flannel or plaid?" He smacked his forehead. As if on cue, you could hear a motorcycle pull up. Big Mac just rolled his eyes. He knew he was going to sound like a girl saying this. "The flannel would look better fer a night like this," "Thanks." she said, shoving him out of the room so she could change. BAM! BAM! BAM! "I'm comin', I'm comin'," Big Mac grumbled. He opened the door to see an impatient Rainbow Dash with her arms crossed and her foot tapping. "I've been waiting outside for more than 25 seconds, and she's not even out yet. Where is the cowgirl anyway?" "She's in her room-" Rainbow pushed passed him, running up the stairs. Big Mac shook his head, shrugged and went into the family room. Rainbow barged in the room, "AJ, let's-" Applejack screamed so loud, Pinkie Pie was walking down the street when she heard a scream from a mile away. "I felt a disturbance in my friendship...ism...OH WELL!" she continued down the street. Meanwhile, Rainbow had to cover her ears while Applejack screamed. Big Mac heard it too and just as he did, the TV screen broke and the TV was shut off. For good. You could see steam coming out of his ears: "GOD DAMMIT APPLEJACK!" he yelled. Applejack, now calm, threw her other shirt at Rainbow, as well as her pillow. "The fuck, Rainbow?! Ya can't just barge into ma room like that!" she spat angrily. "Well, excuuuuuse me, but you are taking too long!" she said, looking away avoiding any contact with Applejack's visible parts, if you know what I mean. Applejack was half-naked when Rainbow Dash turned around. "Damn, AJ." she said. "What?" Applejack asked. She then looked up and down, only seeing she had a bra AND underwear on. Her eyebrows furrowed and she took a long sigh. "Lemme guess. This is your reward?" she asked blankly. Rainbow Dash snapped a picture on her phone of Applejack and saved it. She started laughing, "That's a keeper." "What?! No way! Delete it!" she gasped. "Lemme think about it...uh, no." RD shook her head. "Delete it," she said, now cracking her knuckles. "Still no," she says, sticking out her tongue. Just as she turned around, Applejack tackled her to the ground trying to grab the cellphone. The phone went on the other side of the room, both girls wrestling each other just to get it. Applejack grabbed the phone and deleted a picture. Rainbow grabbed AJ by the waist and tried to get it back from her. Yes, they were the same height but Applejack was standing on the very end of her tippy-toes, like a ballerina. They both collapsed onto the bed, breathing and out of breath. That's when they both realized Applejack was on top of Rainbow Dash. They looked away, faces flushed. After what seemed like forever, Applejack got off of Rainbow,who was upset that their little fun was over. Rainbow then smacked the side of her head, half the reason to get the perverted thoughts of Applejack and her perfect figure out of her mind. God...please don't make me bisexual! Or even homo! she thought. "Duh! I forgot about the slumber party!" she said, rubbing the back of her head. Applejack, finally fully dressed, grabbed her stuff, "Well, then let's go. Oh and if there's paparazzi out there because of what happen' on Thursday, I don't know you." "Deal," RD said. "And drive slower, will ya?" Applejack begged. "Fine," Rainbow said. The slumber party started off great. Everyone arrived around the same time AJ and RD did. Everyone was laughing, talking, eating, watching TV, playing around...in other words, having fun. Rainbow took the girls to show them her bedroom. Since they have never been in her house, they were all in awe when they saw what was in front of them. Her walls were a cyan color and her bed was queen sized, with a blanket that had a cloud with a multicolored lightning bolt shooting out of it. There was a little electronics area with her laptop, phone, TV, Nintendo 3DSXL, and other electronics. Her closet was big, but not a walk-in. There was a rainbow colored rug and a desk with a lamp on it. In the corner was a soccer ball, tennis ball, basketball, baseball, you name it. She had a nice round window to see the city lights, with magenta curtains. Rarity practically fainted when she saw the place. "There are no words!" she exclaimed. "I know, my room is kind of awesome," RD said. "Kind of?! I envy you!" Twilight cried. Rainbow chuckled and took her phone from the electronics area. Then she gasped. Pinkie Pie, curious, walked over to see what she gasped about. Then she scratched her head. "Um...Dashie? Why do you have a picture of Applejack in her bra and undies?" she asked. "WHAT?!?!" Everyone else ran and grabbed Rainbow's phone. "I thought I deleted this! What did I delete then?" Applejack yelled. ***** If you guys remember back, I said this earlier: The phone went on the other side of the room, both girls wrestling each other just to get it. Applejack grabbed the phone and deleted a picture. Did you pay attention? ***** Rarity smacked Rainbow Dash's arm. "Ow! The hell was that for?" she yelled, rubbing her arm. "For being such a pervert and actually taking a picture of your friend like that!" she snapped back. Applejack grabbed Rainbow's phone and deleted the picture. She tossed it back to Rainbow. "Now then, shall we continue with our festivities?" she said, flipping her hair. "Hooray Slumber Party!" Twilight squealed, clapping her hands. "Ooooh! Let's play Truth or Dare!" Pinkie suggested. "Sounds like fun, I'm in," Rainbow said. Everyone else, except Fluttershy, nodded yes. "Truth or Dare? I don't know," she said, worried. "Come on Flutters! It will be totally harmless and very much fun! If you want, I can let you off when you don't want to play," Rainbow said. "That's the thing: I don't want to play!" she said. "Please Fluttershy? For me?" Twilight pleaded with the puppy dog pout face. Fluttershy was defeated. She sighed and nodded yes. Twilight hugged her tight and patted her head. "So, who wants ta go first?" Applejack asked. "Me!" Pinkie said. "Okay...Truth or Dare?" "Dare!" "Wise choice," Applejack said, with a mischiveous grin across her face, "I dare ya to..." > Dying of Laughter > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I can't believe I actually agreed to this," Pinkie said as she looked down. It was a long drop from where she was at, standing at the edge of Rainbow's roof. There was a trampoline at the bottom and all her friends were looking at her. "You're a sick, sick person, Applejack!" she yelled angrily. "It's simple. Jump down onto this here trampoline and grab that flag tied to the tree." Applejack explained, grinning wider than usual. "No fucking way! I ain't doing this shit!" she shouted out. Her friends looked at each other with shocked expressions on their faces. Pinkie has never cursed if she was angry or frightened. As a matter of fact, she was never angry OR frightened. Rainbow was already bored out of her mind. "Come ON, Pinkie Pie! It's a dare, you have to do it." she exclaimed. "Aw hell naw!" Pinkie said. She sat there, arms folder and legs crossed. Rainbow had enough of it. "If you're not coming down. I'm coming up!" RD said. Applejack grabbed her arm, causing Rainbow to turn around. "Are ya sure, Rainbow? She looks awfully angry. Should I let her forfeit?'" she asked, a concerned look in her eyes. "Fuck no," Rainbow said, pulling away, "She can freeze to death for all I care! I wanted to see some action, so I'm going to get it, whether she likes it or not!" The girls waited until Rainbow reached the roof by going threw the stairway to the roof. Pinkie wasn't looking behind her until she heard Rainbow's foot tapping. "I'm waiting," Rainbow said impatiently. "Like I said, I ain't going down there!" Pinkie's hair inflated to a straight, dull pink. Rainbow didn't seem to care that she was like that, though. Pinkie got up and walked slowly to Rainbow Dash until they were face to face. "Look Pinkie-" Rainbow started. "It's Pinkamena to you," she corrected. "Look, Pinkie, just jump down from the darn roof. I don't have all night you know," she said. "You might not have all night at all once I'm through with you," Pinkie said, slowly taking something out of her pocket. It was a switchblade! Rainbow was frightened, "W-what are you going to do with that?" "Something I should have done a long time ago..." The girls at the bottom couldn't hear anything anymore and they all started to grow even more worried, pacing and tapping their feet. They heard a shriek and saw Rainbow running and carelessly jumping off of the roof! She landed on the trampoline and was going up, up, up, up, up, until gravity decided to "pull" a prank on her. Get it? "Pull?" No? Okay... She was falling down from being around 150 feet in the air, screaming so loud (like a little girl), the whole neighborhood's lights turned on and everyone was looking out of their window. The girls were freaking out. Just using the trampoline to break her fall would only make her go higher. Plus, it was a little too late to grab a mattress from the house. That was when Applejack thought of the craziest idea EVER! "I'm gonna catch her," she said, looking up. Rarity, Twilight, and Fluttershy said the same thing, "ARE YOU KA-RAY-ZEE?" "No, I ain't. I'm goin' to catch her," Applejack repeated. Rainbow Dash was getting closer to the ground, her eyes closed and hands folded as she prayed that she would live. In perfect timing, Applejack took a running dive towards the ground . ***** Rainbow Dash opened one eye and saw that she was alive. She looked around to see Applejack, panting hard and gritting her teeth because of how heavy the athlete weighed. Applejack got her hands out from under Rainbow and hugged her tight, leaving the still-dazed girl in a blushing, blank expression. The neighbors cheered as they got up and dusted themselves off. The other girls ran over to give the other two a hug. Pinkie's jaw dropped onto the roof. Literally. "What in the world made you jump off the roof like that?" Twilight asked. Rainbow pointed to Pinkie Pie, who was still trying to figure out what the heck had happened. "She went all crazy and nearly murdered me with some switchblade she had in her pocket. I thought for sure she was going to kill me. And after all we've been through together," she paused, then continues, "In order to save myself, I jumped off the roof and landed on the trampoline. I didn't think I'd go higher than where I was." The girls looked at Pinkie who looked back at them, looking so upset now. "I'm sorry, Dashie. I just got so angry that you guys wanted me to jump off of a roof. I didn't mean for it to go this far," Pinkie slowly got up and jumped onto the trampoline, grabbing the flag, and landing on her feet. Tears were in her eyes and she tried to blink them away. Rainbow Dash put her arm around Pinkie. "Hey, turn that frown upside-down, will ya? I understand you were upset. I totally forgive you. But don't take out your anger by trying to kill people, okay?" she said. Pinkie's hair poofed back to life and she hugged Rainbow Dash very tight, "Okie dokie!" They all went back to the bedroom, seeing that it was 8 o' clock. Twilight looked around the room and said,"Who's next?" They all looked at her as if she didn't see what the hell just happened to them. She went on her knees and practically started to beg. "Come on! This is my first slumber party! Can we have someone to do something next?" "I don't know, Twi," Applejack said. "Please?" she asked. Fluttershy raised her hand and gulped, "I g-guess I could give it a s-shot," she said. Twilight's eyes went wide and she grinned sheepishly, "Really?" Fluttershy nodded. Twilight embraced her in a hug. "Truth or Dare?" she asked. "T-truth..." Fluttershy said. "Hmmm....is it true that..." > Love is Kind...right? > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "...you had a crush on a boy before?" Twilight asked, rubbing her chin. This is what everyone seemed to be interested in, knowing Fluttershy would always keep her feelings in. She did look pale, however, after Twilight finished and in response, she shook her head no. "Oh come on! You should have had a crush on someone before!" Rainbow Dash said, unpleased with the answer and folding her arms. "N-never! I never liked a boy before!" Fluttershy stammered. She was hiding something, but knowing how sensitive she is, they let it slip. "Never?" Rarity asked. "Never," Fluttershy said, blushing at a memory she had in mind, "Boys are overrated. O-out of m-my league." "So ya never had a crush on a boy?" Applejack asked. "It wasn't a boy exactly..." she whisper-shouted. "Huh?" Everyone said, dumbfounded at what she was getting at. DASHBACK TIME! (that is was I call a "flashback") ***** Ten years ago, a very tall Fluttershy had a bookbag and her lunchbag as she looked at the elementary school she was going to be attending for the next three years of her life. The exterior was large, brownish-red. The building itself looked like it was built that year. Her mom was next to her, holding her hand. "Fluttershy, I'm going to take you inside, but promise me this." she said. "Yes mommy?" Fluttershy asked. "Promise me you'll make friends and have fun?" "Okay." ***** "What does this have to do with anything?" Rainbow Dash asked, bored. "Shut up! I'm getting there...if you don't mind..." Fluttershy replied. ***** It's been three days since Fluttershy has attended the school, but she wasn't liking it. She's been a mess: tripped, spilled stuff, doze off in class, went into the boys bathroom TWICE (you'd think after making a mistake like that, she wouldn't enter again). Everyone was already calling her names. And each day, she would go home, crying. One day, she was going to use the bathroom when she came across 2 boys. "Well, well, well, if it isn't our dear pal, Cluttershy." the one with brown hair said. His companion, with grayish-white hair snickered. "Excuse me...but I have to use the bathroom," Fluttershy said, whispering a bit loud. "What? You're going the boys bathroom again? Oh don't worry, we have a honorary member card waiting for you in the urinal." Grayish-white said, laughing. "Or...are you going to hold it?" Brown asked. "I'm actually going to the girls bathroom...if you didn't know," she said, backing away until she hit a wall and fell on the ground. The boys laughed. She felt miserable and lonely and unsafe. "You're so pathetic! It's no wonder you're the loneliest loser this school has ever seen!" Brown hair said. Fluttershy started to cry while those two laughed their asses off. Suddenly, a shadow was right behind the boys. And it meant business. "Hey." a voice called. It wasn't coming from Fluttershy's mouth, and it was a bit high and kind of raspy to come out from either one of the boys. They stopped laughing. Instead, they looked pale. That is, until they turned around to see a girl with rainbow colored hair. The boys looked at each other with mischievous grins on their faces. "Well, now look at who we have here. It's Rainbow Crash! Hey you gonna back up this wimp here, or back up into the wall like you did last year! What was it again? An 'accident'?" Brown hair joked. "Leave her alone." she said firmly. Fluttershy got a good look at her. She was short, for one thing. Her eyes were a nice shade of magenta and she had thin pink lips. Her cyan shirt strangely complimented her hair and eyes. She had black skinny jeans and bright blue Nike's. Wow, she's so...pretty. What is this feeling that I have? Fluttershy thought to herself. She had butterflies in her stomach. "Or what?" Grayish-white said. Fluttershy took her gaze off the girl and snapped back into reality. Rainbow Crash Dash cracked her knuckles, "Keep messing with her and you'll see." she said. "Oooh I'm scared! A girl is going to hit me! Someone call 9/11!" Brown mocked as he put his hands in the air, complaining with an awfull girl sound. "Hey Rainbow, where's your pathetic little blonde friend? What's her name? Applejack? Where is she?" ***** "How am I in the conversation?" Applejack asked, cocking an eyebrow. "I have no idea." was Fluttershy's response. ***** "Leave Applejack out of it!" Rainbow shouted. "Or what? If she's not here, she won't be able to help you as we whip your sorry mother-fucking ass!" Grayish-White said. Fluttershy gasped at the foul language. Kids in second grade shouldn't be saying things like that at all. She was about to cry when she saw Rainbow scowl. "Look," he continued, "we can settle this in a race or a fight. The choice is yours." Rainbow looked at Fluttershy and then at the boys. She had a mischievous grin on her little face. The answer is not what you thought it would be. The boys didn't see a blow to the face since she is so quick with that kind of stuff. They fell back and she kicked both of them on the floor really hard. They got up, looked at each other, then ran to the nearest boys bathroom. She yelled after them, "And you might want to never mess with me again!" She panted until she realized Fluttershy was still there with a shocked expression on her face. "Wow, just...wow!" Fluttershy said. "You okay?" Rainbow asked, extending a hand. Fluttershy gladly accepted it. It was small and so soft in her own hands. "The way you kicked them and punched and wow! That was...awesome!" Fluttershy said. Rainbow smiled. For some reason, it made Fluttershy blush a deep shade of red. The bell rang and the students started filing out of the classroom. "The name's Rainbow Dash," RD said. "F-Fluttershy." Fluttershy replied. "You wanna sit with me at lunch? I want to introduce you to some of my friends." RD suggested. Fluttershy smiled and nodded, "I'd like that." While she followed Rainbow, she made a shocking discovery. She had a crush on Rainbow Dash. The girls just sat there, jaw-dropped and everything. They could not believe their ears. Fluttershy was very pale and Rainbow Dash had this face on. Twilight snapped out of her daze, "So what you're telling me is that...you were gay? In second grade?" Fluttershy seemed to regain color, "Yeah, I guess." "And ya never told any of us?" Applejack asked. Rarity closed Pinkie's jaw. "No, it was a secret," Fluttershy said, "But I stopped after the end of second grade...are you mad at me?" "Mad? No darling, we're shocked. We never knew you were like this!" Rarity said. Everyone looked at Rainbow Dash, who was still having that face on. Applejack smacked her face before she regain her composure. "Wow...I...wow." was all she could say. "W-who's next?" Fluttershy said, trying to avoid the subject. "How about you Rainbow?" Pinkie asked. "Huh?" RD clearly was still dazed and not listening to a word. "Truth or dare?" Pinkie asked. "Uh...dare." Rainbow said, still looking at Fluttershy. "I dare you to..." "Huh?" > Being Loyal while drunk > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here they are, 9 o'clock P.M. in front of Soarin's house where he was having his birthday party. His parents were not around to supervise since they had family business to take care of in Manhattan, so he was throwing the party with alcoholic drinks, cigars, hot babes, and so much more. Rainbow Dash was nervous, but was willing to take the risk. "What's my dare again Pinkie?" she asked. "You have to drink at his party and go third base with him! Here, use this protection thingy, just in case." Pinkie explained, handing it over to Rainbow. "Awesome! You're the best, Pinkie!" "Now hold on a second, partner," Applejack said, moving up," Are ya sure ya wanna do this?" "Fuck yeah I am! You know me AJ, I never chicken out from a dare!" Rainbow beamed. "But this is different. Third base, RD. Third. I can't even go first." "I'm different, Applejack. Besides, I got protection, see?" Rainbow waved the cover-thingy in Applejack's face. "Well, don't you start screamin' when ya got a full twelve inches up your asshole." Applejack muttered. "10, actually." Rarity clarified. Everyone looked at her with shocked faces, wondering how she knew that. "What? It's in the record book at school in the nurse's office. I was...curious and took a peek." Rarity defended herself. "Yeah, sure Rarity." Rainbow rolled her eyes, knocking on Soarin's front door. It opened up and Soarin's face popped out. "Glad you girls could make it. How's the slumber party going?" he asked. "Meh, it could go bettter, but it's cool." Rainbow replied, acting like the slumber party was boring. The girls rolled their eyes and smiled. Rainbow knew the slumber party was off-the-hook, but admitting it to Soarin would make her look "girly". This has been going on for years now. "Cool. Come on in," he stops Pinkie, "Did you bring...'it'?" A wide grin spread across her face. She ran to the back of the large van which was driven by Rainbow, took out her party cannon, ran back to the house and confetti blasted everywhere. Then she went to the DJ stand, pulled Vinyl Scratch out of nowhere and said, "LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!" Now everyone was really having fun. Rainbow Dash went downstairs to get herself some booze. There were other teens there, giggling hysterically, lap-dancing (yes I am that type of kid), and apparently... ALL. FREAKIN'. DRUNK Rarity and Fluttershy were also down there, drinking some Hawaiian Punch since Rarity claims drinking alcohol would ruin her reputation. And Fluttershy was...well, Fluttershy. Rainbow grabbed a bottle of champagne, poured it in a glass and chugged down. "Rainbow, slow down, you're drinking like a crazed buffoon." Rarity said. "Hey! I don't want to lose a dare tonight! I need to get boozed up!" Rainbow snapped back. "But Rainbow, you might not even remember what you did by tomorrow." Fluttershy said. "Like they say Fluttershy, better now than never." "Are you doing this because you have a crush on Soarin or for wanting to complete the dare?" Rarity asked. "Both." Rainbow said, grabbing another glass. 7 drinks and 3 slaps from AJ later... Rainbow was indeed, drunk. Her friends were not, since they were having so much fun hanging out with each other. But Rainbow was drunk. She didn't know what was going on, and for some reason, was hanging out with Soarin and his friends, who weren't really that drunk, but appreciated the fact she was making things more "fun." Applejack pulled Rainbow Dash from the crowd and took her outside. "Look at you, drunk as my great-aunt Sally. You shouldn't be drinkin' so much, Rainbow." Applejack said. "Nonsense, Abbletact! I'm not enen drunk!" Rainbow slurred. "Well, ya are, and ya shouldn't be either. Yer still a teenager, Rainbow Dash. I dunno if you're ready-" Cutting Applejack off, Rainbow gave her a big, fat, sloppy kiss. Her mouth tasted like alcohol, which made Applejack pull away in five seconds. "Disgustin'! I can't believe ya did that!" Applejack yelled. "Aw, come on! Don't act like ya didn't enjoy it." Rainbow said, getting closer. "Yer...yer sick! Don't come fifty steps near me, ya hear!" Applejack said, backing away. "Pleeze! Abbletact, I-" "Hey Rainbow Dash and Applejack! They're going to light Soarin's cake! Come on in!" Twilight yelled. "Comin' Twi!" Applejack yelled back. She looked at Rainbow one more time, shook her head and went in. *** "Thanks for coming! See you guys soon! Ta-ta!" Soarin said, watching everyone leaving his house after his great big party. He hasn't had this much fun in ages. "Soarin, when can I host your next big party?!" Pinkie said, standing in the doorway. Soarin chuckled, "Maybe before I leave for college, Pinkie." "Fair enough! See ya at school on Monday!" "See ya!" Rainbow Dash crookedly walked up to Soarin, still drunk as ever, "Hey, Soarin, can I talk to you for a sec?" "Sure Rainbow. Is something wrong?" he asked, leading them to the couch. They sat. "Well, yes...no...maybe, I don't know." "I don't follow." Rainbow Dash seemed to somehow snap out of her drunken state and back into reality. She had no idea what she was doing until now. She shook her head several times to snap out of it. "Uh, Rainbow," Soarin asked, "Are you feeling okay?" "Huh? Oh, yeah. Anyway, I...um...well, I have a secret that I've been keeping from you." "Really? What is it?" He moved closer, and Rainbow could feel the butterflies in her stomach. She took a deep breath and said this fast, but clearly: "I've always had a crush on you, Soarin. Everytime you're near me, I get goosebumps or butterflies in my stomach. You know, all that mushy stuff. I've always hoped I could spend some time with you instead of being around my friends all day. At our slumber party, Pinkie dared me to go third base with you if I was drunk, but somehow, here I am back into the real world. But that's not the point. The point is:...do you have feelings for me...too?" Soarin stared at Rainbow and her at him. He seemed that he was going to look like that forever. Rainbow Dash felt anger rise up in her body, but stopped when he started blinking. Soarin sighed. "Rainbow, I...I thought I had feelings for you. Everything you said about me when I'm around you is the same feeling I get when you're around me...but..." "But?" Rainbow repeated. "I saw you kiss Applejack before they lit my birthday cake. I closed the shutters after she broke the kiss." "We did WHAT?! Who- how the- I was- HOW THE FUCK DID THAT HAPPEN?!" Soarin moved back a little, scared at how angry she was getting, "Don't ask me! She's the person you kissed. Anyway, I believe you two would make a great couple, since...obviously you love each other." "Soarin, no. Just...no. We like each other but not in that way! Hear me out!" "Hear me out, Rainbow. You are obviously in love with her. She loves you back. There's nothing else to say." "Soarin, I-" There were tears in her eyes. One drop and he would know she was a baby. "Sorry Rainbow. There's nothing else to say. I'm going to ask you to leave please." Rainbow sniffed a little and slowly got off the couch, heading towards the door. She stopped in the doorway, looked back at Soarin who was cleaning the mess up, and closed the door behind her. *** The girls were waiting for Rainbow Dash to hurry up in the house while they sat in the car. When she came out, they could see she was really angry about something. Fluttershy opened the door for Rainbow and she got in. "Um, Rainbow, are you-" "YOU!" Rainbow yelled, grabbing Applejack's collar. The girls gasped while Applejack gulped. "M-me?" she studdered. "You did this to me! You son of a bitch! How the fuck could you do that to me?!" Rainbow growled. "What in tarnation-" "Don't use your 'what in tarnation' shit with me, Applejack! You kissed me! And Soarin saw the whole damn thing! You motherfucking asshole!" "Now hold up! I didn't kiss ya! You were a freakin' drunk-ass who wouldn't know where yer hair was if it weren't attached to yer big-ass head! You pulled that shit on me and speakin' all types of nonsense! I told ya that it was a bad idea!" "You didn't tell me nothing! I swear Applejack, you're becoming a bigger pain in the ass every motherfucking day!" "Throw me in hell then, would ya? And get the hell offa me! Rarity, drive! I'm grabbing' ma stuff so I can get the fuck home." Rarity hesitated, but went into the driver's seat and started the car. Rainbow sat in the front of the car, muttering some words that children should never hear. Ever. Pinkie, Twilight, and Fluttershy looked at each other sadly and sat in the back of the car, sighing. Applejack had her head buried in her knees, weeping terribly. It was going to be a long drive. > Generously helping our friends out > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Applejack went home. Rainbow Dash was in her room. The other girls were in Rainbow's basement, still upset from the previous events that had happened earlier. Fluttershy was sniffling since she cried that two of her friends were furious with each other. Pinkie Pie, although her hair remained poofy, she was upset as well. Twilight and Rarity just looked worried. It was silent. Rarity broke the silence. "We've got to find a way to get those two back together. Knowing them? They will probably be mad for weeks." Pinkie giggled a little, "You said 'back together.' " Rarity rolled her eyes at Pinkie's immature manner, "This is serious, Pinkie Pie. It's just a few misunderstandings. Rainbow thinks that Applejack kissed her on purpose or something. Applejack says otherwise, knowing Rainbow kissed her while she was drunk. I believe we can help those two work their differences." "But how," Twilight asked, "Applejack went home. Who's going to go over there and comfort her?" A grin spread across Rarity's face. Twilight knew what that meant. "No! No way! It's too dark and late outside to do anything!" she rejected. "I'll go with you...if you don't mind." Fluttershy suggested quietly. Too late though: Twilight heard her. "Seriously, Fluttershy? You'll go all the way to Sweet Apple Acres with me?" Twilight was astonished. "If it means getting our friends back together...yes." "Great," Rarity said, "You girls run along now! Don't forget to convince Applejack to come back here for the slumber party!" "Yeah! For the party!" Pinkie said in her normal, cheery state. "Okay, okay. Bye now!" Twilight said, pushing Fluttershy out the door. "Let's go cheer Dashie!" Pinkie exclaimed. Author's note: This would be like a back-and-forth type of section. The colors of the mane six coats are the text for this part. RD's Place Stupid Applejack. Making Soarin think I'm gay for her. Who the hell does she think she is? *knock knock* Go away! Leave me be! Dashie, it's us! Pinkie and Rarity! Do you not understand English? I said- Oh, Dashie! Of course I understand English! I also know French, Spanish, Hindu, Latin, Italian, dog, cat, bird- Okay, you understand multiple languages, big whoop. That's not the point, Rainbow. We want you and Applejack to become friends again. Sweet Apple Acres Who said anythin' 'bout me and Rainbow not bein' friends? Uh, you did, before you left. You practically shouted it out and she went to her room while you went home. By walking. All alone. Yer point is? RD's Place Look Rainbow, we know you and Applejack are mad at each other. But it's all- Sweet Apple Acres A big misunderstanding. Rainbow was drunk. What she thinks happened, didn't happen. RD's Place Yeah, silly! You really think Applejack would really kiss you? She knows you're not a lesbian, but you did- Sweet Apple Acres Crazy stuff anyway. You are very close when it comes to friendship and I know it hurts you a lot, but- RD's Place You can't be mad at each other forever, can you? Both Sweet Apple Acres and RD's Place ... ... Yes. Eeyup. Sweet Apple Acres *sigh* This isn't getting us anywhere. Fluttershy, would you do the honors? M-me? I-I don't k-know! Please? Don't you care about our friends' relationships at risk? Twi, that was a lil' harsh fer Fluttershy. RD's Place What do you expect, Rainbow? If a lady has no way of making things right, she must be hard on the person who might...oooh, that rhymes! Sweet Apple Acres Not helping, Fluttershy. Okay, okay...um...well, I...er...didn't come up with a speech for this. *face-palm* UGH! RD's Place Wellllllll...you and Applejack know each other very much. The type of sports you like, exercise techniques- Sweet Apple Acres We ain't got exercise techniques, Flutters. Oh, well, um...favorite foods, everything! You two have a special bond that not even the rest of us could relate to...I think. But that's no reason- RD's Place To fight with each other! If you're gonna fight, fight about who gets the last cupcake on our picnics! They taste really good and I think I'm going to add the special ingredient to the next batch: white chocolate! Mmmmm, yummy! Getting off topic, Pinkie. Oh right! Anyway- Sweet Apple Acres You two should be ashamed of yourselves! Rainbow was doing a dare and when you're drunk, you don't know what you're doing. You shouldn't- RD's Place Overreact, silly. Overreacting is more Rarity's thing. *giggle* Plates. Pinkie! Oh yeah! *inhales deeply* Sweet Apple Acres You guys are friends. Friends shouldn't fight, and if they do, they...um...need to have a good reason to. What happened with you and Rainbow was really pathetic and I'm really disappointed in the both of you. I really am. Well, what do y'all expect me to do? Apologize? RD's Place I'm not apologizing until she does. We figured you might say something like that. We did?! No one ever told me! *ahem* Applejack's coming over to apologize to you. Sweet Apple Acres WHAT?! I never agreed to this! Face it, Applejack. We're going over there and you can't stop us from doing so. Well, I a'int budgin' and ya can't make me. She could still be upset with me. ...Fluttershy, get the rope. *** Author's Note: Well...that took me probably 30 minutes to complete. I broke it up into Sweet Apple Acres and RD's Place for all you bozos who didn't understand if they were in the same place or not (no offense). Back to the story! *** Twilight drove back to Rainbow's house with Applejack tied up and her suitcase with her. Fluttershy was texting Rarity, telling her that they were on their way back. Satisfied with her message, Fluttershy put her phone away and looked at the back seat, with poor Applejack struggling to break free. "Oh Applejack," she said, "No need to get out of it. It's for your own good. We need you and Rainbow to become friends again. It would only tear up the friendship between not only you two, but all of us." Applejack stared back at Fluttershy, saying nothing as her eyes that were once filled with rage turned into apologetic. AJ sighed and nodded, while Fluttershy smiled a reassuring smile. It seemed like everything was going to turn out right. "We're here." Twilight announced. Going to the back of the van, Twilight and Fluttershy untied Applejack and let her out. Giving her the luggage, Twilight walked alongside Applejack while Fluttershy rang the doorbell. It opened up to Pinkie Pie, smiling wider than ever. She jumped onto Applejack, causing AJ to let out a surprised yelp in return. "OOOOOH! I'M SOOOOOOO HAPPY YOU'RE BACK! IT WOULDN'T BE A SLUMBER PARTY WITHOUT YOU!" she exclaimed happily. "...air...need air..." Applejack gasped. "Let's go back inside so you and Rainbow can apologize, and Pinkie, stop hugging Applejack." Twilight commanded. Giving Applejack one more squeeze, Pinkie grabbed her hand and led her inside the house, taking her up to Rainbow's room where Rainbow and Rarity were hanging out...kinda. When Pinkie barged in, they jumped up. "Gosh darn it, Pinkie! You scared us!" Rarity yelled, until she realized what she said, covering her mouth. Pinkie giggled. "Aw, Rarity. Had to let all the gas out before it even reached the car!" "What does that mean?" "Nothing! You wouldn't understand! You're not as Pinkie-licious as me!" Pinkie giggled. "Not as- I don't know what that means, but I am too!" Rarity pouted. "Are not!" "Are too!" "Are not!" "Are too!" The two continued their silly argument as they left the room, closing the door behind them, and leaving Applejack and Rainbow Dash in the room. All alone. With nothing to do. *** Author's Note: Let the AppleDash commence! *** > I honestly did not see that coming. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Applejack and Rainbow Dash looked around the room, unsure of how it all lead to an awkward moment, though Rarity's and Pinkie's argument was awkward enough already. Rainbow sat on her bed and began fiddling with her fingers, while Applejack twirled her hair around her finger. Enough of this, Rainbow thought, It's go time. "Applejack," she started, "I...I'm sorry I overreacted about the kissing me thing and everything. I guess I really was a very drunk son of a...bitch. I guess I liked Soarin so much...use to anyway." Applejack looked up, "You...you don't like Soarin no more?" Rainbow shrugged, "I guess boys aren't really my thing after all." "That's phony talk, Rainbow. Shoot, I like boys, too. But- then again- I...I'm....." her voice trailed off. "Bi?" Rainbow finished for her. Applejack nodded, looking down once again. Rainbow got up and walked over to Applejack. "Why didn't you tell me before? Any of us?" she asked. " 'Cause I didn't know how y'all would react to my admittin' it. And I'm sorry, too, about how I acted. Ya just came onto me like...like...gosh darn it, I can't think of anything!" The two stared at each other and chuckled. It was so good to become friends again. But now Rainbow had something she had to confess. "AJ, in all honesty, I'm bisexual too." *** "WHAT?" Rarity screamed-whispered outside Rainbow's door. Her and the girls were listening to their conversation from the outside. Pinkie giggled, almost laughing out loud until Rarity covered her mouth. "Shhhh! They can't know we're listening! I must know secrets!" she squeed. "Hey, where's Twilight and Fluttershy?" Pinkie asked. They looked around to find the purple headed and pink haired girl nowhere whatsoever. Pinkie went down the stairs, looking for them, while Rarity kept her ear pressed to the door. *** Applejack could not believe her ears. Rainbow Dash, the one who was always made fun of for liking girls...admitted she liked girls. She didn't see it coming, but for some reason, it really didn't surprise her. And it made her heart beat faster every second. She stared at Rainbow's magenta eyes, seeking truth in them. There they were, right in her pupils. Applejack's stomach actually started to have butterflies. What was this feeling she's feeling? "Y-you're serious?" she asked. "Well, duh. Otherwise I would have been saying 'you should see the look on your face' by now." Rainbow rolled her eyes. "I...I can't believe it. I need to sit down." So she sat on the bed, Rainbow doing the same. "What's wrong? I know it's been a crazy night, but hey. We've had way worse. Although, Pinkie scaring the shit out of me was pretty crazy. And yet, surprisingly normal." They chuckled again. Applejack felt that feeling again, although it never really left her insides. What she didn't know was that Rainbow Dash was having the same feeling. It couldn't be...maybe I should ask her, Applejack thought. "Rainbow, I know you just lost your crush, but...do you like anyone else? Someone you thought you never had a crush on before?" "I...I'm not sure. I've always been head-over-heels in love with Soarin that I never even thought about liking anyone else. Doubt anyone would ever feel the same about me though." Applejack frowned and looked out the window. She knew somewhere out there was the perfect soul mate for Rainbow Dash. But who? Every girl at school despised her, and the boys consider Rainbow as a little sister since she hangs out with them a lot. Applejack never discovered her feelings for anyone, but somehow, every-time she looked at Rainbow at that moment, butterflies were flying around in her stomach. The tight chest feeling she was feeling was something she had when a boy usually flirted with her. So it's true. I can't believe it. I...like Rainbow Dash. "...now that I think about it," Rainbow interrupted AJ's thought, "There's this one person who has always caught my eye. I tried to shake the feeling off multiple times before, but I guess it won't leave until I confess." Applejack remained silent. Rainbow looked at her. "Applejack, I like...you." *** Pinkie was still searching for Twilight and Fluttershy everywhere, but she couldn't find them. If only- "Fluttershy, you have no idea how long I've always wanted to hear you say those words!" Twilight? What in cupcake-frosting name is she doing...in the guest room? Pinkie thought. "Well, um...I never knew you felt that way...so...eep!" Fluttershy said. Pinkie pierced her ear against the door. Fluttershy too? What's going on?! "I love you, Fluttershy." What? "I... love you too, Twilight." WHAT?!?!?!?! Silence. I have to get to the bottom of this! Pinkie kicked the door open and caught those two...making out. "Pinkie! Wh-what are you doing here?! Aren't you with Applejack and Rainbow Dash?!" Twilight stammered. Fluttershy looked as if she were to pass out. Pinkie looked at Twilight, then Fluttershy. Twilight. Fluttershy. Twilight. Fluttershy. Twilight. Fluttershy. Pinkie's brain: Processing...25% loaded...50% loaded...99.999999% loaded...Process completed. Analysis: Mind=BLOWN "What the fuck is going on here?!" Pinkie shouted. Rarity fangirl squealed from upstairs. The girls looked at each other, then ran up. "Rarity!" Twilight snapped. "Shhhhhh! Listen!" Rarity said, eyes sparkling with excitement. The girls put their ears on the door. *** Applejack's face was filled with shock. Even after listening to Pinkie scream from downstairs, her brain wasn't believing anything. Did Rainbow just...? A blush found its way to her cheeks and she took her hat off to hide it. Rainbow smiled and took Applejack's hat. "You're supposed to wear a hat, not hide behind it." she said, putting it on her own head. "Hey! That's mine! Gimme!" Applejack tried to snatch it back, but Rainbow pulled away. "Nope! Too slow!" "Rainbow..." "What's the matter? I thought you were a good athlete. Guess I was wrong!" Rainbow teased. That did it. Applejack tackled Rainbow Dash and they fell on the floor, laughing. Applejack took her hat off of Rainbow and stuck her tongue out, which made them laugh even more. It was weird though: Applejack tackled Rainbow, but Rainbow was on top of Applejack. Who knew? Rainbow looked at Applejack and Applejack looked at Rainbow. Here comes the butterflies again. But this time, the amount grew about ten times larger. Why? Rainbow was leaning in. Soon, their lips locked with each other. Applejack was shocked at first, but soon, her eyes slowly closed and the moment was being enjoyed by both girls. What seemed like a playful kiss at first, soon turned into a passionate one. And this time, Rainbow tasted like...skittles? It didn't seem to bother Applejack though. It seemed like everything in the world was at ease. They were the two main stars as of now. But of course, the act doesn't act long. They pulled away, panting for air, but had big dopey smiles on there faces. "I love you, Applejack." "I love ya, too, Rainbow." Rarity and the girls ran downstairs to the living room before they could get caught invading others' private lives. When no one else came downstairs, she shot a dirty look at the three girls. "Why were you yelling? Don't you know it's rude to yell!? And Pinkie, watch your mouth!" "It's not my fault those two were locking lips in the guest room!" Pinkie snapped back before folding her arms. "...What?" Rarity asked, bewildered. "Me and Fluttershy...are going out." Twilight said, sheepishly rubbing the back of her head. Fluttershy was pale once again. Rarity looked shocked, and then she squealed. "OOOH! All my friends are finding soul-mates tonight! How exciting! You know, they say that guest rooms are where people usually express their love in 2 ways: kissing and-" "What are you guys talking about?" said a certain tomboy asked. The girls jumped in surprise. Rainbow and Applejack were looking at them with confused faces. Rarity blushed and waved her hands at them. "N-nothing, darling! It's nothing really!" Twilight spoke up, "So did you guys make out? I mean! Make up?" Clearly, she wasn't making the situation better. "Um...yes?" Applejack replied. "...Enough said! Group hug!" Pinkie exclaimed. She grabbed the girls into one big hug, even though it was crushing the life out of everyone, but her. "Man, when was the last time we grouped hug? I kiss those! I mean! Miss those!" Twilight blurted out. "Twilight?" Rarity asked. "Yes?" "Shut up." > Last Chapter: "Not Interested." > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 days, one break up, one realization later It was Monday and everything is how it was before. Everyone seemed to be buzzing about Soarin's party, and the four of the main six found out Twilight and Fluttershy broke up. Applejack and Rainbow Dash wanted to keep their relationship status hidden until they found the right time to speak of it again. "Why would you two break up? You look so good together!" Rarity whined. "Fluttershy and I thought it was for the best. Dating one of your best friends is, how should I say it, downright despicable!" Twilight said, saying "downright despicable" in an awful French accent. The girls chuckled. Well, almost all the girls. "Well, actually, if you realize you have nothing in common anyway. Me and Flutters have nothing in common at all! Zilch! Zero! Nada! Doughnut hole..." Rainbow covered Twilight's mouth. "What are you, a dictionary? I swear, Sweetie Belle knows less words than you..." "What's that supposed to mean?" Rarity asked, confused. "Nothing. It's nothing." Rarity nodded before a smug grin spread across her face. It was time for some spoiling... "So, Rainbow, Applejack, anything...interesting happened over the weekend?" The two shook their heads, "Really? Are you sure about that?" The two nodded their heads in unison. "Rarity, what are you doing?.....Oh!" Twilight exclaimed as realization hit her like a rock. Pinkie was baffled too until she realized what they meant and had the same expression Rarity had on her face. "Did you silly billies happen to-oh, I don't know-MAKE OUT?!" Well, one thing they knew for sure: Pinkie goes straight to the point at times. Though they had confused looks at first, Pinkie mentioning something about making out made them slowly realize what she was talking about. From confused to understand to downright shocking. "H-how do you know about that?!" Asked a shocked Rainbow. "I may or may not have been spying on you both," Rarity said, smiling, "Now spill! Was it magical? Was it horrible? Are you two an item now? Details, details, details!" Rolling her eyes, Applejack spoke up, "It was mighty...magical. Better than apple pie, I guess. And about the 'in item' thing..." Her face flushed a bright red that would have made a tomato jealous. Rainbow put her arm around Applejack and kissed her cheek, which grew hotter at the touch, "Yeah, yeah, Rarity. We're an item. You happy now?" Squealing, Rarity hugged her two friends, followed by a cheerful Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy with Twilight. Suddenly, someone tapped on Rainbow's shoulder. When she turned around, she scowled. It was Soarin. "What do you want?" she asked, folding her arms. "Can we...talk?" Soarin asked. "Why would I want to talk to you?" "Look, Rainbow. I know I screwed up. Big time. And I'm sorry. I really am. Just give me a chance to say this," taking a deep breath, he said, "Will you go out with me?" Had the girls been any quieter, the crickets would have shut up too. Wide eyed in shock, the girls all looked at Rainbow, who for some reason, looked like she didn't know what to do. Finally, she spoke up. "Not interested." It was Soarin's turn to be quiet and register everything that just happened. "What?" "I said I'm not interested. I don't want to date you." "W-why not? Is it because of what I said about you and Applejack? I said I was sorry-" "I don't care. If I'm not interested, I'm not interested. Move along now." she shooed him off. "You can't do this to me! I'm very popular! You will regret this, Rainbow Dash!" he said, while he was being pushed into another hall. "Yeah, yeah, your grandma's pretty, too. Goodbye now!" And he was nowhere in sight. Sighing, she turned around and faced her friends and girlfriend. "You okay, Rainbow Dash?" Twilight asked, concerned. "I'm fine. Never really liked that jerk anyway. Too...sappy for my taste," Rainbow said shrugging then putting her arm around Applejack, "Besides, I got AJ here who is very much my type. If she's happy, so am I." "Awwwwwwwwwwwww!" The girls cooed in unison, earning a playful glare from Applejack. "Looks who's bein' sappy now." she said blushing. Rainbow gave her a quick peck on the lips. "Don't act you don't like it. I'm awesome like that." "Yes, yes ya are. Now c'mon, class is gonna start." "Ooh! You know what this calls for?!" Pinkie asked. "What?" Fluttershy asked. "Another party! A slumber party!" Rainbow Dash smiled, "A slumber party sounds cool. Let's have another one." To be continued...
