What happens when the one of the cutie mark crusaders gets their cutie mark? Well your about to find out.
Apple Bloom tripped as they were trotting to the train station.
"Ouch!", said Apple Bloom as Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo rushed to help her back on her hooves.
"Apple Bloom! Are you okay?", Sweetie Belle shouted jumping up and down with sparks flying out of her horn.
"Oh no, Apple Bloom your bow is torn!", Scootaloo said pointing to Apple Bloom's bow which had been torn to pieces.
They all heard a rumble and a loud horn. They started trotting once more to see their friend was arriving from Manehattan.
"Babs! You're he-", the girls stopped their speech. Their mouths dropped wide open. They all stared in disbelief. Thoughts racing through their minds about what was right in front of them. Their was complete silence for a long time, as the girls stood their staring at Babs shocked and petrified.
By the way more characters are in this than the limit because it is being made an audio drama. Any grammar mistakes please tell me!
"Babs! You-you got your cutiemark! Why didn't you tell us earlier!", Apple Bloom shouted out of the blue with her eyes becoming watery.
"I though you were our friend!", said Scootaloo peering down at the ground with her front hoof circling in front of the other.
Sweetie Belle just stood there still still staring.
"Listen I knew this is how you all would react, but I just couldn't tell you because when I woke up today it was there and I didn''t have anytime to write a letter and wait for the mail pony to send it.", she said with a honest look on her face.
"We know but we just- we just need some time to adjust.", Sweetie Belle said trying not to be rude in any way even though she was very mad at this point. Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo trotted off slowly to Sweet Apple Acres.
"Is tomorrow at noon a time that we can meet again?", Babs said choking back her tears.
"Yes, yes it is. At the treehouse.", Apple Bloom said without looking back.
Babs sighed then trotted off in the other direction.
************ At Sweet Apple Acres Sweetie, Apple Bloom, and Scootaloo walked in trying to hide what they had just been through from their friends.
"Where's Babs girls?", Apple Jack said suspiciously.
"Uh she is um-", stuttered Apple Bloom looking down.
"She is getting her stuff.", said Sweetie Belle said looking at Apple Bloom reassuring her that they wouldn't find out.
"Hey Scoot, wanna go for a fly after i'm done helping Apple Jack?", Rainbow Dash said excitedly as always.
"Uh n-no I think I am good.", Scootaloo sputtered.
The 6 ponies stared at them as they walked off up into Apple Bloom's room.
"Something must be going on.", said Rarity fixing her mane after a bucket of apples fell on her head.
"No doubt about it!",said Pinkie Pie in a excited fun voice, but looked rather concerned.
"Well right now we've got some work to do. We'll see whats going on after we're done.", Apple Jack said with a look of suspicion across her face.
The 6 ponies continued on working for a long time all wondering the same thing. What went on between the Cutie Mark Crusaders.
Apple Jack trotted along, checking for any trees that still had apple on them.
"Found one!" shouted Rainbow Dash from far away.
"I can clear it in 10 seconds flat!" she said closing her eyes and acting awesome as usual.
"Or you can help Big Mac pick out the good apples from the bad ones." said Twilight, levitating the apples that were recently on the tree in front of Rainbow.
"But-But..." Rainbow said looking shocked as ever.
"Just go and help him already!" said Twilight annoyed.
"I just don't understand what they could be hiding from us, I mean we are their sisters!" Rarity said confused.
"Well I don't understand it either sugarcube," Apple Jack said putting her hoof on Rarity's shoulder.
"But I can assure you, we will find out. One way or another." said Apple Jack reassuring Rarity.
"I sure do hope so." said Rarity trotting away with Apple Jack.
********************************************************************************************************** Back in the barn Big Mac and Rainbow Dash were sorting out the apples.
"So how's the apple sortin' going?" said Pinkie Pie.
"Good, I guess..." said Rainbow Dash looking down.
"Why so glum sugarplum?" said Pinkie, hopping over to Rainbow.
"It's just that Scootaloo always wants to fly with me, but today she didn't. It sorta hurt my feelings. I mean this may be hard to believe but sometimes ME, the best flyer in Equestria gets her feelings hurt." said Rainbow not know she was bragging once again.
"Well, Rarity and I think they are hidin' something from us." said Apple Jack, trying to ignore the fact Rainbow Dash was bragging again.
"And you never mentioned it to me! Scootaloo is like a sister to me!" shouted Rainbow Dash angrily.
"Rainbow, please settle down!" said Rarity flagging down Rainbow Dash.
"No I can't and I won't!" said Rainbow Dash flipping over a bucket of apples on accident, hitting Fluttershy in the face. "Ouch!" said Fluttershy rubbing her nose.
Rainbow Dash quickly looked over and came to realization.
"Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh!" said Rainbow Dash flying over to Fluttershy.
"Are you alright?!" she said feeling guilty. She touched Fluttershy's nose a little bit.
"Ow! That really hurt!" said Fluttershy pulling Rainbow's hoof away.
"Hold on sugarcube, let me see your nose." said Apple Jack moving Fluttershy's hoof from over her nose.
Apple Jack looked at Fluttershy's nose which appeared to look oddly shaped.
"I don't mean to scare ya Flutters' but ah' reckon your nose is broken." said Apple Jack looking worried.
"W-What?! A broken nose! Wha-What do I do?!" shouted Fluttershy, scared.
"I think that means you have to go to the hospital." said Pinkie Pie.
"But, don't worry I have some old balloons from when Rainbow took that fall, get me some helium and we could have the best get well soon party EVER!" shouted Pinkie, very excited.
"Now girls no more stalling we have to get Fluttershy to the infirmary now." said Twilight commanding.
"Fine," said Rainbow Dash trotting out with the rest of the girls.
"Infirmary, sounds like something an egghead would say." said Rainbow Dash under her breath.
"Rainbow Dash!" shouted Twilight.
"But how did you hear that!?" said Rainbow Dash shocked.
"Hear what I was just telling you that you were dragging behind." said Twilight peering back at Rainbow Dash.
"Oh, yeah. Sorry Twi!" said Rainbow Dash catching up with the rest of the girls.
As they all trotted off, Apple Jack still wondered about the CMC.
Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo trotted into Apple Bloom's room.
"So," Sweetie Belle said breaking the silence."Anypony gonna say anything or is it just me.." Sweetie said, confused.
"I am guessing it's only gonna be you." said Scootaloo peering at Apple Bloom.
"I HATE BABS!" shouted Apple Bloom out of the blue. Apple Bloom got up and was attempting to flip over her closet.
"Apple Bloom settle down!" yelled Sweetie Belle pulling Apple Bloom away from the closet.
"Yeah! She couldn't tell us! It was an honest mistake!" shouted Scootaloo pulling at Apple Bloom.
'She might have said that, but how do we know she is telling the truth?" said Apple Bloom. Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom stopped pulling.
"You're right!" said Sweetie Belle.
"And when have I ever not been right?" said Apple Bloom in a very sassy way.
"Okay well we agree with you now you don't have to rub it in our faces, AGAIN..." said Scootaloo.
"Okay moving on. We need to tell her off!" said Apple Bloom.
"Well actually-" said Sweetie Belle when she got cut off by Scootaloo.
"Not now Sweetie Belle." said Scootaloo. Sweetie Belle had been getting tired of the fact that for some reason her friends were not listening to her and leaving her out most of the time. The anger was building up inside her, but Babs Seed was coming and she knew that her friends were excited about it, and she was too. The excitement of it all sorta took away from the pain of it all. She didn't want the visit anyways. Just because her friends were being a little rude to her, and didn't even know it, doesn't mean she has to ruin it. The least she could do was not ruin it all to make the pain worse, than to have some pain but still have friends. Even though Babs' visit had already been ruined by the fact she got her cutie mark and didn't tell a single pony.
"Alright I guess..." said Sweetie Belle sadly plopping down on Apple Bloom's bed sighing.
"Let's go tell her off right now!" said Scootaloo raising her hoof up.
"Yeah let's-" Apple Bloom remembered the promise she had made to Babs. The promise too meet up the next day. To talk about what happened at the train station. Apple Bloom didn't realize she had lost her grip of the real world the second while having a flash back of walking away from Babs. Once Apple Bloom came back to the real world, coming out of the flash back she was in.
"Apple Bloom? Apple Bloom?" said Sweetie and Scootaloo waving their hooves in front of Apple Bloom's face.
"What happened?" Apple Bloom asked. Apple Bloom looked very confused. The other two girls thought she knew what happened, which made them as clueless as her. "I just remembered! We promised Babs that we would meet her at the treehouse tomorrow at noon!" The girls memory was refreshed. Scootaloo was excited, a bit too excited though. Sweetie Belle was pretending to be excited. She had learned from Princess Luna to always give ponies a second chance, although Babs had already had hers when they first met. Even though she was tempted, she knew that it was wrong to not let her have another chance. Even though she didn't even need another! It's not even Babs' fault that she couldn't tell them! She was only playing along so she wouldn't lose her friends. The girls all started walking out into the barn too see their friends.
"Also AB, you blacked out for a minute there." said Scootaloo walking out beside Apple Bloom.
"Really? I didn't notice." The girls all started laughing and continued walking on into the barn. To their surprise nopony was in the barn except for a small note that read:
Dear CMC,
Rainbow Dash accidentally broke Fluttershy's nose while flipping a bucket of apples. We will go into detail when we get back from the infirmary. We will be back soon!
Your Friends, Twilight, Pinkie, Rainbow, Rarity, Apple Jack, and Fluttershy.
"Hey that means that we have enough time to make a plan of how to get back at Babs!" said Scootaloo.
"I don't think we-" said Sweetie getting cut off once again.
"Yeah let's do it!" said Scootaloo. Then Apple Bloom and Scootaloo went trotting off, Sweetie Belle dragging behind, still thinking about Babs and giving her another chance.
That same day, a tired Sweetie Belle was dragging behind her friends who were running to Twilight's castle to ask Rainbow and Pinkie Pie about pranking. She had no clue why, it was almost midnight, and highly doubted that they were even at the castle, let alone awake. She was still pretending to go along with Apple Bloom and Scootaloo, even though she knew it was the wrong thing to do. She didn't even know what happened to her friends. How could they think that Babs wasn't telling the truth? I am they were so close the last time they saw each other! What happened to make them have a fallout? Sweetie wouldn't be surprised if she wasn't informed of it. They never even seemed to listen or notice her. But, a fight would have been to obvious, their 6 older friends would have found out and patched it up from the start. Rarity would have definitely would have told her about it. Rarity tells Sweetie everything, even though she knows half of the time she would get bored and would either plain not listen or fall asleep. So a fight had been crossed off of the list of possibilities. She had on clue why they were being so mean. Maybe it was because of stress because they had promised to always try to get their cutie marks together. Sweetie Belle kept on thinking about it not seeming to look where she was going. Suddenly she had fallen down. Sweetie got up and focused in on what had happened. To her surprise, she had wondered deep into the Everfree forest. Even more surprising was the pony she had run into.
"Babs? Is that you?" said Sweetie Belle starting to lean over falling down. Babs quickly helped her back on her hooves.
"Yeah it's me. I have a feeling you don't want to see me right, do you?" Babs started wiping up her tears. Attempting to walk away, Sweetie Belle grabbed her and pulled her back forcefully. Sweetie looked her straight in he eyes and said "We are going to fix this. I am not letting this happen anymore." Babs looked confused but she didn't even have time to get her words out before Sweetie Belle said something. "Here. 5 A.M. sharp. Don't be late." Sweetie walked away. Babs didn't say anything because she was too scared because Sweetie was being the most assertive she had ever been.
Babs waited for Sweetie Belle to walk far enough away so she can walk another way out of the forest.
Meanwhile Apple Bloom and Scootaloo were still running towards the castle when they heard something move from bushes.
"We're almost there!" yelled Apple Bloom nudging Scootaloo.
"More li-" Scootaloo said stopping in her tracks. She stopped running and stared. Apple Bloom stopped and started backing up. They both stood motionless in utter fear. All you can hear was a very high pitched, "AHHHHHHHHHH".
Back in the infirmary the girls were waiting in the waiting room while Fluttershy was having surgery.
"It's been 5 hours! What are they doing in there? Making her at home?" yelled Rainbow Dash impatiently pacing. They had been waiting for a while now and by the minute she felt even more guilty. "This is all my fault! It's taking too long! The next thing you know they will be bringing her out in a bag saying 'Sorry for your loss'!"
"Rainbow don't worry, a hit to the nose wouldn't hurt Flutters' A hit to the head would! Oh wait the nose is a part of the head, He he nevermind.." said Pinkie pie. Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes.
"You're not making this any better, Pinkie." said Rainbow still pacing.
"Aw Rainbow, don't worry! Fluttershy will be just fine. We promise." said Apple Jack.
"Pinkie promise?"
"Cross ma' heart hope to fly, stick a cupcake in ma' eye."
"Thanks for Pinkie promising AJ, but still! Fluttershy could have been SEVERELY injured!" said Rainbow Dash, worried.
"Rainbow dear! Stop looking at the worst of things! Since Fluttershy has broken her nose, maybe she could get a nose job! Let's face it, we all know she needs one." said Rarity being her usually fashionista self.
"Enough with that stuff! Fluttershy's nose is perfectly fine! Plus I don't know the half of what a nose job is!" said Apple Jack.
"Figures" mumbled Rarity. Apple Jack heard and whipped her head around, "What did you just say 'Miss Rarity'?"
"Woah woah woah, calm down girls. We need to toughen up and just wait until the surgery is over. For Fluttershy." said Twilight putting her hoof in. "For Fluttershy." said Rainbow. "For Fluttershy." said Apple Jack. "For Fluttershy." said Pinkie. "For Fluttershy." said Rarity.
"Then lets do this!" they all shouted. They all sat down in their seats.
