> Teenage Mutant Ninja Ponies > by Shazam 25 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The sun raise over New Mare City. To many people, it was a normal day, but that was not the case in New Mare City. "Much more than just a series of small, isolated incidents, it's apparent an organized criminal element is at work." A women voice was heard as the scene was shift around the city. "And at the moment, business is good. So good, in fact, there appear to be no eyewitnesses to any of these crimes." The same women voice said as the newspaper was deliver to a newspaper stand saying "Crime as raise." "With complaints ranging from purse-snatching to breaking and entering, police switchboards have been swamped with the angry voices of more and more citizens who have fallen prey to the recent surge of crime that continues to plague the city." The women said again as a few people took some of the newspaper. "Instead of getting better, things have gotten worse. Even more alarming is the baffling and often bizarre nature of these crimes." The women spoke again as a man wallet was stolen and pass around, before it disappear in an ally. "Merchandise of every size and description from skateboards to stereo systems has been disappearing from store shelves and storage areas at an alarming rate." The woman voice said as a man made a deliver and walk back to see that his truck was empty. "Even the victims themselves rarely glimpse the thieves. Many don't know they've been victimized until it's too late." Another women was watching this one speak and turn away. She turn back and saw her TV was gone. "In fact, police have yet to come up with an eyewitness. Only a few vague reports of young boys or teenagers at the scenes have been filed." The women said as more crimes happen. "But whoever is behind these crimes, one thing is certain. These are much more than just a series of random incidents. Come on. Hurry up. Good. Crimes without criminals? An invisible gang at work? Who are we going to call? Unfortunately, the police are the only ones available to combat what some are dubbing "the silent crime wave." But perhaps the most disturbing silence is that coming from City Hall." This time we see the women that been speaking this whole time. She had purple hair and ice blue eyes. She had a white news suit on and diamond shape earrings. She also had some make-up on. "Rarity Belle, Channel Three Eyewitness News." She said ending her report. Rarity Belle was a news reporter that was looking into the crime that has been happen though out the city. She was the only one that wanted this crime to be look into more then normal, but with all the reporters she has made, no one has done anything to stop them. Rarity was just about to leave when the guard stop her for a bit. "You got to stop working so hard." He said to her. "What, give up all this glamour?" She joke. The guard laugh and said, "Goodnight." Rarity wave and walk out the door. She started to take out her keys when she heard something and look up to see that her trailer was been empty by a few gang members. "Bad timing." One of the said. "You're telling me." Rarity agree. She turn and bolted, but she didn't get far, before she was jump. "Get away from me! What do you think... Help!" Rarity call out as the gang member try to steal from her. "What the hell's going on? Thought I'd seen it all." They all stop at the sound of voices and something been thrown in the air. Something hit the light above them and it shatter making everything dark. "All right. Come on, tough guys." A voice said and the sound of fighting fill the air. Soon a siren was heard and Rarity look up to see the gang members all warp up and the police walking up to her. "You all right, ma'am?" One of the Officers ask her. "I'm fine." Rarity said and check to make sure her diamond shape earrings were still on her ears. "Rest right here while we deal with these guys.", The same officer said and walk around to untie the gang, "Ted, give Hoops a hand." Without anyone knowing, a man cover open and some green eyes peek out. It watch as Rarity look down, thinking she saw it. "Oh, man." It whisper. Rarity look down and saw something she knew, a Sai. Rarity pick it up on look at it. "Let's get them in the car." The officer said, as Rarity slip it in her bag. "Damn." It said before retreating under ground. Under the sewer four shadows walk through cheering about their first battle. "Oh, spectacular." One said. "We were awesome, sisters!" said another. "Awesome!" The third said. "Yes, dudes and dude-ettes, major league butt-kicking is back in town." The second said before the third jump in the air. Teenage Mutant Ninja Ponies Soon one of the shadows jump out and look to be a cyan pony with rainbow mane and tail and wings on her and she wears a blue mask and wields two long and razor-sharp katanas. Her name is Rainbow Dash. "Awesome!" She said as she landed. The other shadow jump out and was a pink pony with a curly mane and tail that was also pink and wears a orange mask and wields a pair of nunchakus. Her name is Pinkimina Pie or Pinkie for short. "Righteous!" She said laughing. "Bossa nova!" They both heard and stop. There behind them was purple pony that had a horn and a purple mane and tail with a pink stripe in it and wears a purple mask and wields a bo staff. Her name was Twilight Sparkle. "Bossa Nova?" Rainbow asked. "Chevy Nova?" She asked smiling. The two shook their heads knowing their sister can't get any of those words right. "Excellent!" She shouted, surprising them. "All right!" Pinkie said and they give each a low and high hoof. "Come on, let move it!" Rainbow said as they walk off. "I'm staving!", Pinkie said as her tummy growl, "We're talking major pizza attack here, dude-ettes." "Pizza! I need it. Oh, baby." Twilight said, also hungry. Soon an fourth pony walk out and this was was orange with a blonde mane and tail and wear a dark red mask and wields a pair of sai. She also had a hat on. Her name was Applejack and unlike her sisters, she was not happy or hungry. "Oh man." She groaned, as she held up her only sai. "What's eating her, sisters?" Pinkie asked. "Give me a hoof!" Rainbow said and held her hoof up. "You got it!" Pinkie said and she and Twilight give Rainbow a high hoof. "We were great." Twilight said as the walk in. Applejack stop at the door and look back before hold up her sai once more. "Damn!" She said and walk in. The three ran up to their teacher still excited of their first fight. "We have had our first battle Princess Celestia. They were many, but we kicked...", Rainbow said, before stopping and calming down, "we fought well." "Were you seen?" A lovey voice ask her. Rainbow and the others shook their heads no. "In this you must never lapse. Even those who would be, our allies would not understand. Our domain is the shadow, tray from it reluctantly. For when you do, you must strike hard and fade away. Without a trace." We soon see another pony, this one was white, with different colors on her mane and tail that flow like the wind. She also had a horn and wings on her. "I lost a sai!" Applejack bust out. "Then it is gone." Celestia said, trying to calm her down. "But I can get it back." Applejack said again. "Applejack...let it go." Celestia said quietly. Twilight place a hoof on Applejack, but she was to upset to care and hit it off. Twilight hit her back which case Applejack to hit back. Celestia's voice stop them and Applejack walk away. "Your ninja skills are reaching their peak. Only one truly important lesson remains, but must wait. I know it is hard for you here underground." Celestia told them. While she was doing so, Pinkie was on the phone, ordering Pizza for everyone. "I want a large thick crust with double cheese, ham, pepperoni..." She said, not listen to what Celestia said next. "Your teenage minds are broad, eager. But you must never stop practicing the art of ninja, the art of invisibility." She said and turn back to see Pinkie still on the phone. "Oh, but no anchovies. And I mean no anchovies. You put anchovies on this thing, and you're in big trouble." She said before Celestia use her magic to pick up an book and threw it at her. "Pinkimina Pie!" She said, a bit upset. "Uh oh, That'll do. And the clock's ticking, dude." Pinkie said and hang up. Everyone else laugh as Celestia shook her head. Pinkie shrug and walk up to the others. "You are still young, but one day, I will be gone. Use my teachings wisely. I suggest we all meditate now on the events of this evening." Celestia said and they all started to do so, before some music was turn on. She turn to see Pinkie and Twilight dancing to the music and having fun. "Ninjitsu!" They said, as Celestia place a hoof on her head. "Well, this is like meditating." Pinkie said as Celestia shook her head. Applejack, on the other hand, had a over coat on and fixed her hat. "Hey A.J., where you going?" Rainbow asked her. "Out to a movie." She answered, "that OK with you?" Rainbow nods as Applejack left. The five ponies are strange indeed, but remember there more to then then meets that eye. > Chapter 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was couple of minutes after Applejack left and the sewer was quite. I know, why would ponies be living in the sewer? Well, Celestia thought it would be better then on a the surface, where they can not hide their fur coat colors and they also stick out from other ponies. Twilight was riding her skateboard, pulling off a few tricks and soon reach where Pinkie was. "Hey there.", Twilight said getting off her skateboard, "how you're doing?" "Fine." Pinkie said, eating what was left of a Popsicle. "Nice night." Twilight said, look through the vent above them. "Hmm, Pizza dude's got 30 seconds." Pinkie agree, before saying. Twilight nods, wanted to eat as well. "Hey Pinkie, did you ever think about what Celestia said tonight? I mean, you know, about what it would be like not having her?" Twilight asked her sister. "Hmm.", Pinkie said thinking, "Time's up. Three bucks off." Twilight shook her head, knowing that Pinkie didn't think about it at all. Above them, a scooter pull up and the Pizza Man got off and grab the pizza. "Now let's see.", He said picking up the pizza box, "One-twenty-two and an eighth." He walk to where the building was suppose to be and saw it was an old run down one with no numbers on it. "Terrific. Where the heck is one-twenty-two and an eighth?" He ask out loud. "Your standing on it dude!" Pinkie spoke up, casing him to move back. He saw some money coming out of the vent and heard, "Just slip it down here." He look around hoping no one would see him doing this. He walk over and started to put the Pizza box in. "Gimme that!" He said and snatch the money as the pizza box disappear. He started to walk away and notices how much he had. "Hey! This is a 10. The tab's 13." He said to the vent. "You're two minutes late, dude." Pinkie told him. "Oh, come on! I couldn't find the place!" He said getting down on his knees to speak in the vent. "Wise pony say, "Forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza"." Pinkie said. "Pinkie, you said that wrong!" Twilight's voice came out. The Pizza man got up and shook his head. "I got to get a new route.", He said and got back in his scooter, "and I thought I delivered everywhere." Back at the ponies home, Pinkie held up the Pizza, knowing it was going to be good. "Yes, friends, the new Turbo Ginsu!" Pinkie said, before throwing it in the air. Rainbow took out her katanas and started to slice up the pizza. "It dices, it slices and yet makes french fries in many different..." Pinkie said as pizza slices landed on plates, expect for one that landed on Celestia head. "Oops!" Pinkie said, putting her hoof to her mouth. "Kids." Celestia said and use her magic to take the pizza off. The others started to eat making sure they left some for Applejack. Speaking of her, Applejack just finish a movie that she watch call the Critters. "Ugh!", She said, "Where do they come up with this stuff?" Applejack look around before heading back home. Along the way she spotted a group of teens running up and stole an old lady's purse. The ran pass Applejack, who stick her hoof out and trip both of them. She toss the purse back and turn to two teens. She move aside her over coat and pointed to her sai. The two teen got up and ran, they jump over a wall and stop after a while. "What the hell was that?" One teen ask. "I don't know." The other answer. They were surprise as a young man dress in a white shirt with a purple vest and pants and sneakers. He had green hair that made into spines that also let his hair fall freely. He also had a white hockey mask on. He held a golf bag holding all type of sport items. "That was a crime, you purse-grabbing pukes and this is the penalty." He said and smack one down with a hockey stick. "Two minutes for slashing, two minutes for hooking..." He said tripping the other, "and let's not forget my personal favorite, two minutes for high-sticking." He raise the hockey stick over his head and was push to the ground, losing his mask in the progress. "How about a five-minute game misconduct for roughing, pal?" Applejack ask, having following the teens to see this happen. The man stood up and said, "Hey, Bogey, who died and made you referee? You did your job. Get out of here and let me do mine. These JV lowlifes need to be taught a lesson." "Not like that they don't. Not from you." Applejack said knowing this guy was doing it wrong. The teens took their chance and ran for it. The man turn back and sigh as he saw them get away. "It looks like you're the one who needs a lesson, pal.", The man said and drew two bats of of his golf bag, "Class is Pain, your instructor is Spike Dragon." "Look, I don't want to fight you." Applejack said, wanting to go home for now. "Tough rocks, pal." Spike said and swing the bats. Applejack dodge them before grabbing one of them. "A Jose Canseco bat? Tell me, you didn't pay money for this?" Applejack asked him. "Ooh!" Spike said and hit her back. "Was a two-for-one sale, pal." He said. The hit case Applejack's hat to fall off, showing her face and blonde mane. Spike raise an eyebrow, not sure if he was seeing things. "Hey, what are you, some sort of punker?" He ask, getting Applejack to look up as she held the bat. "I hate punkers." Spike and and got a better look at her, "specially blondes ones with orange makeup who wear masks over ugly faces." "That it.", Applejack said and swing the bat, "new batter!" "Strike one!" Spike said as he dodge. Applejack swing again and Spike once more dodge. "Whiffer." Spike mock her. Applejack flip over him and hit his back knocking him to the ground. "Home Run!" Applejack said and walk up to him. "Applejack wins! One-nothing!" Applejack cheer and place a hoof on Spike. Spike kick it off and move away from the pony. "Well?" Applejack asked him. "New game, blonde.", He answered, taking out a cricket bat, "Cricket." Applejack look at him, wondering what game that was. "Cricket? Nobody understands cricket. You got to know what a crumpet is to understand cricket." Applejack said. "I'll teach you." Spike growl and hit Applejack into the air. Applejack flew and landed head first into the trash can. "Six runs." Spike said, as Applejack fell to the ground with the can. "So long, freak. I got work to do." Spike said as he ran off. "Freak?!", Applejack shouted and stood up, "FREAK?!" She chase after him almost getting hit by a Taxi. "What the heck was that?" The passenger ask. "Looked like a big horse in a trench coat.", The driver said before turning back, "you going to La Guardia?" Applejack chase after Spike still highly upset. "Come back here! I'm not finished with you!" She yell, but soon lost him. "DAMN!!!" Applejack shouted. Some time later, Applejack return home upset and sad about what happen. "Applejack." She heard and turn to see Celestia was still awake. "Come sit by me." She said. "Can't this wait until morning?" Applejack ask tire. "You will listen now!" Celestia said, her tone telling her that it can't wait. Applejack walk over and sat down next to her. "My master Yoshi's first rule was...Possess the right thinking. Only then can one receive the gifts of strength, knowledge, and peace. I have tried to channel your anger, Applejack, but more remains. Anger clouds the mind. Turned inward, it is an unconquerable enemy. You are unique among your sisters, for you choose to face this enemy alone. But as you face it, do not forget them. And do not forget me." Celestia remind her and saw tears coming from Applejack's eyes. "I am here, my daughter." Celestia said and place a hoof on Applejack, which case Applejack to hug her. Celestia hug back, thinking back to her master as well a pet rat that she was good friends with. The next morning, Rarity was getting ready for work as her boss, Filthy Rich stood over her. "Rarity, you could've called me last night, you know? Call it a quirk, but I like to know when one of my best reporters has been mugged." He said. "I wasn't mugged, Rich.", Rarity said and place some make-up on her face, "besides, I knew you'd just worry and rush over here like you did this morning." "From now on, security is gonna escort you to that stone-age van of yours every night." Mr. Rich said. "Yes sir!" Rarity said, place an hand to her forehead. "I'm not kidding, Rarity." Rich said Rarity roll her eyes and and turn to Filthy Rich's daughter Diamond Tiara. "Hey, Diamond Tiara, how school going?" She ask her. "Fine." She said, before looking at the book she was reading. "Wonderful. So wonderful I have to drive her there every morning now just to make sure she goes." Rich said and watch as Diamond place on a set of head phones. "See? That's what she does when she wants to ignore me, sticks her head in those things." Rich said, before noticing that he never seen them before. "I wonder where the hell she got those things, anyway?" He ask. "Rich, give the kid a break." Rarity said. Whiling they were talking, Diamond Tiara notices Rarity wallet and the money inside it. Rarity wasn't someone she would steal from, but she was low on cash and her father stop giving her money because she waste it on junk. She sigh and check to make sure they weren't looking and took the money, which was a 20 dollar bill. Rich walk up to the window and asked, "Just what is going on out there, Rarity? I've never seen anything like this before. It's like the city's falling apart. It's getting so you can't step outside in the daytime anymore." "I'll tell you one thing.", Rarity answered, "After everything I've been hearing out of Little Tokyo, Hoof-Sterns is gonna have some answering to do this afternoon." "Hey, hey!", Rich nearly shouted, "just take it easy. He's already got the mayor breathing down my neck." We soon move to town hall, where Rarity was doing a report with a man that was in his 30's, had a fizz hair cut and dress like police officer, which he was. "We are presently executing a plan of redeployment that will minimize response time, while maximizing coordination between patrol units in a decentralized networking scheme." He said, answering Rarity's question. "I'm not sure I understood all that, Chief Hoof Sterns. Would you mind repeating it in English, perhaps?" Rarity asked him. "What that means, Miss Belle, is everything is well in hand." Hoof Sterns said. Inside the ponies home, the four were watching Rarity make her report and knew her as the women they save the night before. "Hey, girls, look! That her." Twilight said as the rest look. As soon the TV went back to Rarity, Pinkie kiss it and joke, "I'm in love." The other two shook their heads, knowing they were ponies and Rarity was a human. Applejack smirk and straighten out her hat before grabbing her coat and left before any pony notices. However, the ponies were not the only ones watching Rarity report. "What do you know about an organization known as The Changelings?" Rarity ask, casing a dark being watching to growl. "There is no evidence to link such a name to these incidents." Hoof Sterns said. "Are you denying an organization known as The Changelings exists?" Rarity ask. "I'm not denying anything." Hoof Stern said. The dark being took a knife and threw it on one of the TV's. It then turn to it's follower near-by and said, "Find her. Silence her." The follower bow and left. The dark being watch Rarity end her report, still growling. > Chapter 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- A bit later, Rarity and her crew was putting the equipment away, when Rarity heard her name. "Miss Belle, get in here." Hoof Stern call out. Rarity hand over her mic and said, "Time me." If she would have stay a bit longer, she would have seen Diamond Tiara being taken away in cuffs. "Just what is it you hoped to accomplish out there, besides busting my chops?!" Hoof Stern ask angrily. "I think you know as much as I do about this Changelings Clan and I don't think you're doing anything about it." Rarity explain. "You expect me to waste precious manpower, because a few immigrants are reminded of something that supposedly happened years ago in Japan?" Hoof Stern ask. "Have you got something else?" Rarity asked back. "Are you trying to tell me how to do my job?!" Hoof Stern yell and Rarity left the office. "One minute, seven seconds, a new record." The person timing her said. Rarity smile and left town hall, ready to get back to the studio. She didn't notices Applejack was near-by and follow her, hoping to get her sai back. Rarity reach the subway, but she miss the train. "Oh, great" She groaned. It was quite, but Rarity had a strong feeling that she wasn't alone. She was right as she turn around and saw black cover suit people from their heads down to their toes. The also had green headbands on and Rarity knew who the were, The Changelings. "We've been waiting for you, Miss Belle." One of them said. "What? Am I behind on my sony payments again?" Rarity ask, laughing nervelessly. "Your mouth may yet bring you much trouble, Miss Belle. I deliver a message.", He said and open his hand before smacking her across the face, "shut it!" Rarity pull out the sai she found and held it up, but the Changeling kick it out of her hands and it lay on the ground. "Oh right, that it!" Rarity said and started to smack the Changelings with her bag. The Changelings were a bit surprise, but one kick knock her out. They didn't see an orange hoof reach and grab the sai before hearing a shout and turn to see Applejack, still with her over coat on, rush out at them. Applejack jump kick two of them before blocking and push back three at them time. She kick down another one and grab Rarity. The train was what she need to slip away, unknowing that one of the Changeling follow her. She soon reach back to her home and lay Rarity on the couch they had and remove her over coat. Rainbow and the others walk in surprise that Applejack brought a human they knew into their home. "Are you crazy?" Rainbow ask. "Yeah, I'm crazy, Rainbow. Ok? I loony ok?" Applejack said not wanted to be bother of why she did this. "Why?" Rainbow ask. "Why? Why? Oh, I don't know, 'Cause I wanted to redecorate. A couple of throw pillows, a TV news reporter. What do you think?" Applejack said getting upset. The argument was stop as Princess Celestia walk up. "Applejack, what is the meaning of this?" She ask. "She got jump in the subway, I had to bring her here." Applejack explain. "It the news lady." Twilight explain. "Can we keep her?" Pinkie ask. Celestia look at her daughters and knew Applejack was trying to help. Even if that means reveling themselves. "Bring water, cold washcloth, pillow." She said getting Twilight and Pinkie to get the things. Celestia walk up to Rarity and place a hoof on her and had her horn glow before healing the spot she was hit. Rarity open her eyes and her vision started to come in. She was so shock by Celestia face, she started to scream. She turn and saw Pinkie and Twilight returning. "Hi!" Pinkie said. Rarity scream out loud and some of the others scream as well. Rarity look around, wondering where she was at. "Horses? Horses that has weapons and mask and one with wings and another with a horn and the one in front of me with both? I'm dreaming, I must be dreaming." Rarity said thinking she was. "If you will please just sit down and calm yourself, I will tell you where we came from." Celestia said. "It talks?" Rarity ask. "It is really quite simple, Miss Belle." Celestia said again. "And she knows my name. Perfect." Rarity said still freak out. "Fifteen years ago..." Celestia started to explain. "Why don't I ever dream of Fancy Pants?" Rarity ask herself. Celestia shook her head and started again. "For many years now, we have lived here. Before that time, I was a pet of my master Yoshi mimicking his movements from the barn I stay in and learning the secret art of ninja. When we were forced to come to New Mare, I found myself for the first time without a home, wandering the lands, scavenging for whatever I could find. And then, one day I came upon a broken fence and four baby fouls." Celestia said. "That was us." Pinkie pipe up. "Oh, no!" Her sisters groaned as Pinkie shrug. "The little ones were crawling into a strange glowing ooze from a broken canister nearby. I gathered them up in the old broken barn and when I awoke the next morning, I received a shock, for they had their fur coats color change. l, too, had mine change, particularly in intellect and I was amazed at how intelligent they seemed. But nothing could have prepared me for what happened next, One of them spoke." Celestia continue. "Pizza! Pizza!" the pink pony said. "More words followed, and I began their training teaching them all that I had learned from my master.", Celestia said, "and soon I give them all names, Rainbow Dash, Pinkimina Pie, Twilight Sparkle and Applejack." Rarity had calm down and listen well. What she was told did make sense, but thing was one thing she had to make sure of. "I'm not dreaming, am I?" She ask. "No, I'm afraid not." Celestia explain. Rarity look around, she knew she wasn't dreaming, but it was too weird. She had a strong feeling no one would believe her when she tells them she found a group of talking ponies living in the sewer. Rarity didn't like the sewers, but at least the horses, or ponies as they call themselves, was nice enough to lead her home. "Are you sure you guys know where you're going?" She ask. "12th and Bleecker? Nope. This is only 14th street." Pinkie said after sniffing, "get it?" "Yuck!" Rarity said. It wasn't long before they reach the man hole leading towards Rarity home. Rarity step out and ran to the sidewalk. She turn back to see that ponies was making sure she was ok. "I'd like to invite you all in, but I don't have anything to offer you except frozen pizza." She said. Pinkie shot out of the man hole and shouted, "Let's go for it!" Rarity look at her in surprise. "You said the magic word." Twilight said climbing out of the man hole. "You girls eat pizza?" Rarity ask, still surprise. "Doesn't everybody?" Pinkie and Twilight ask back. Rarity could hardly believe that these ponies can eat human food. "Well, all right..." Rarity said and started to walk back home with the ponies coming out of the man hole and follow her. "Hey, did she said Pizza?" Rainbow asked as Applejack climb out. "So, you live in an antique store?" Twilight ask. "Well, above, actually. What do you guys like on your pizza?" Rarity said then ask. "Just the regular stuff, hay, oats..." Pinkie said getting a weird look from Rarity. "Hey, it was just a joke." She said. Some time later, they were all eating pizza and Pinkie was tell some jokes that Rarity found funny. "Maybe I'll fight Apollo, and maybe I won't, you know? What do you think? Adrian!" Pinkie said getting Rarity to laugh. "You girls are ok, I sure no one will believe that I'm talking to four giant ponies." Rarity said, getting confuse looks on the ponies face. "It was a joke." Rarity said, know they where the same size still they was cover in the ooze. They all laugh before Rainbow said, "And speaking of which, we better get going." Everyone groan at that but understood, Celestia was waiting for them. They all walk toward the door and Rarity open it for them. "Um, will I ever see you girls again?" She asked them. "Indubitably." Twilight said. "That depends on how fast you stock your pizza." Pinkie added. "See you around." Rainbow Dash said as they left. Rarity close the door and lean against it. She admits it a weird day, but it had happen. Those ponies were nice. Maybe one day, she can help them. Back in the Sewer, the four walk home, glad they made a human friend. "No doubt about it. She loved us!" Twilight cheer. "It was the impressions." Pinkie said. "You wish." Applejack smirk. "Hold it!" Rainbow said and they drew their weapons. They ran in and saw that their home was trash and Celestia was nowhere to be found. Applejack thought back to when she carry Rarity through sewer. One of those Ninjas must have follow her meaning she was the one to let this happen. Applejack was so upset she let out a loud scream heard throughout the sewer. Rarity heard some one knock on her door and open it to see her new friends, crying. "What wrong?" She ask. "Celestia." Rainbow said and Rarity knew something happen when they left. "You can stay here for the night." She said. "Thanks. We sleep like normal people do, to let you know." Twilight said as Rarity got blankets and pillows for them. They all lay down and fell asleep, though it wasn't easy for the ponies, they made a friend, but lost their mother. They just hope Rarity could come up with something. Hoof Stern sat at his desk look over the file about Diamond Tiara, the girl that was just arrested. He had a feeling that this girl could help him get Rarity off his back. He pick up the and dial the number. It rang for a few seconds and he heard a voice. "Hello?" It said. "Filthy Rich?" Hoof Stern ask. "Yeah. Who's this?" He asked back. "You do a daughter name Tiara, Rich?" Hoof Stern asked again. He was finally go to get some breathing room. All he wants if for Rarity to get off his back.
