> Running dark > by SunSplash > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > First friend > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Star mist had done every thing to try to get her cutie mark, but sill her flank was blank. she had heard that it took long for the cutie mark crusaders to get there cutie marks, but this was different she was way older then them! She looked out her bed room window........ she tried to imagine hat her cutie mark would be like but nothing came, she couldn't even imagine what her cutie mark would be like, it seemed like when it came to any thing with CUTIE MARK in it she couldn't do any thing with it ! It was to weird. ************* She walked around the evergreen forest. "I know twilight tried to reason with me but she should of known it wouldn't last." Trixie said angrily. She had resorted to talking to frogs, she would tell them her devise plans also her "problems" . "My new plan is to take on Ponyville again and confront Twilight again". Trixie said as she continue talking. ******* Star mist walked through out Ponyville, Every pony was staring at her flank then gave her this funny look,though she was used to this it still bothered her plus it made her feel like there was something wrong with her, although their had to be something wrong with her because she still didn't have her cutie-mark. "Wait there's some paint covering your cutie-mark." Rarity said. "Um.........".she didn't know what to say, if she didn't tell her then maybe she could actually have a friend for once. "Well actually I just can't seem to get the paint off". Star mist replied. She knew it was a lie but she had to didn't she?? "Darling are you okay??" "Yes I'm fine." Star mist replied ,though she felt guilty the thought of finely having a friend made the guilt fade . "Darling Would you like to come with me to the evergreen forest it's rather creepy, but if another pony is there it's not as bad". Rarity said with this rather disturbing look on her face. "Sure." star said trying not to sound to delighted, she didn't what Rarity to get suspicious. They walked turds the very dark opening to the evergreen forest, they walked through the small strange opening . Once they officiously entered the forest . It was and creepy also there was creepy swooshing sounds , she wished that Rarity would have described the forest better . "Sorry darling that I didn't describe it better, It's just I haven't been here in a while so i kind of forgot how creepy it is" Rarity said, it was like she could see into her soul, that sent a creepy chill down her back or it was just the creepy chill that hung in the forest, it was hard to tell. then there was this thud. " A Rarity what was that?" "Um I'm not sure but I'm sure It's not an giant monster waiting to eat us darling !" Rarity said with that tone of voice that says I'm trying to convince myself this. "Run" this weak voice from no were said. Rarity and I didn't care how creepy the voice sounded we ran like mad ponies. "Rarity what were we even looking for again?" She said while they were running for there lives. " Honestly darling I can't remember. " Soon they came to the end of the forest but they weren't taking any chances ,they ran almost right smack into Sugar cube corner. that's when they realized that they were no longer near the forest and they could stop running . "Would you like to get a milk shake darling ?" Rarity asked as she was trying to catch her breath. "Sure." I barely got out while I was still trying catch my breath as well. When walked in the door star started to admirer Sugar cube corner " I love this place." Star said forgetting what had happened in the forest. " You don't get out alot do you darling ?" "No, and how did you know ?" star replied. " Well you see darling It's rather easy I just have to look at you face every time we go some were else". "Oh , that makes sense " star said as her mind started to wonder. "Um can I take your order friend and............... OMC I don't know who you are this is terrible!!!!!"Said this allover pink pony. "Oh pinkie darling this is ............ actually you never told me your name." " Oh sorry Rarity,my name is star mist. " "Well star mist when did you get here?" Pinkie asked. "Uh well actually I've lived here for years, i don't get out alot." Star replied . "Oh well darling this is my friend Pinkie pie" Rarity introduced them. "Well nice to meet you Star, can i call you Star?" Pinkie asked. "Sure" Star replied . "Oh and dear I would like an strawberry milk shake". "I'll take one of those to." Star said as she wondered if Rarity wondered if she was just going along with every thing she said? "Darling , um can i ask something?" "Sure." Star said as she thought I say sure alot, I wish I wouldn't. "Well darling i was wondering how your cutie mark got purple well the exact color of your coat paint on it?" Star panicked Rarity was getting suspicious, what do I do ? she thought to her self . "Um well you see, I was having a pony paint a picture of me and they were painting it with permanent paint and they spilled a little on me, it was so annoying!" star replied as she thought, i'm actually very good at lying , there's a surprise. "Oh yes that makes much more sense then what I thought." Rarity said. "Uh just wondering what were you thinking?" star started to worry did Rarity know that she didn't have her cutie mark yet and that she's been lying all this time? " Well, I thought that maybe that you didn't have your cutie mark yet and you've been lying to me this whole time just so you can be friends with me, isn't that just silly darling ?" AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! > voices > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Star was amazed how did Rarity guess the truth, I mean just how? "Here are your drinks." Pinkie pie said as she set the drinks on the table. "Oh thank you pinkie darling, how much?" Rarity said as she searched for her purse. "Uh It's on me." Pinkie said with her same cheery voice. "Oh well thank you darling." Rarity said in a very strange voice. "Well star darling I need to get home It's getting late, bye." "Bye". Star replied. .............. Star had almost forgotten about the strange voice in the forest, it had scared her so bad that she had almost completely forgotten about it. She remember it was erry and Sly, which scared her even more than what it said, but who said it was the real question, not what it said or how it sounded, all though that maundered to. It couldn't of been Rarity because one: she was just as scared as star two (although she only needed the one resin, but still more prof would prove her theory .) any ways two: Rarity's voice could never sound like that. ..................... Star lay sleep less that night, all she could think about is that voice that her and Rarity had heard in the forest, it was just to mysterious......... to wrong and creepy to well.....well be left alone. She tossed and turned and turned and tossed sleeplessly. then there was this cold chill, just like the one in the forest, "wough, that was to creepy." Star said to her self. "Yes isn't it." The voice said. Star freaked! The voice .......... from the forest........was...... was talking to her! "Okay star this is just your imagination, the creepy voice from the forest did not just talk to you" Star said to herself trying to calm her fear. "Oh yes it is!!!" The voice yelled at her. "Star...... then this just a night mare, yes that's exactly what it is!" Star said trying her hardest to not flip out. "Of course it is but.......oh who am I Kidding of course it's not use your brain!" The voice yelled. then star totally lost it, "WHO ARE YOU????????? AND WHY ARE YOU IN MY HOUSE, HOW IN EQUESTRIA DID YOU EVEN GET IN MY HOUSE , WHY ARE YOU ARGUING WITH ME????? AND HOW ARE YOU JUST A VOICE??????" Star was so scared that she just totally lost it. "Wow you sure have alot of questions, well I guess it's only proper for me to answer at least some of them, well first of all i'm not just a voice duh! that's not possible!" The voice said. Star hadn't thought that last question through. "Well I was scared,and when i'm scared i don't think thing through, wait what a'm I doing, voice get out of my house!"Star said as she pointed to the door. "Well some one's rude". The voice said with a upset ton of voice. Wait the voice could be upset???? I didn't see that coming. "OUT!!!!!!!!!" Star yelled. Know she was getting made, the dumb voice wouldn't get out of her house, dumb voice! "Know you just hurt my feelings!"The voice said in a very pouty voice. This voice was getting to be a Real pain! Star had just about enough of this voice! "ALL RIGHT VOICE I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU, GET OUT OF MY HOUSE OR I'LL HURT MORE THAN YOUR FEELINGS!!!!!!!" Star yelled louder than she ever yelled in her life, but that didn't madder what maddered was trying to get this voice out of my house!!!!!!! "Well I tried to play nice......." The voice said . "NO, you never played it nice!!!!! you scared me and my friend half to def and then you come in my house scare me, then refuse to GET OUT OF HOUSE!!!!!!!" Star continued " So yeah you've so played it nice!" Star said sarcastically. She was mad, to mad to even scared any more. "Well I never!" The voice snarled. Then it clited . when the voice was mad it sounded very familiar , like she had heard it before the forest. whatever. "GET OUT OF MY HOUSE KNOW!!!!!!" Star yelled once again, I mean it was worth a try wasn't it??? "NO!!!!!!" The voice said in this snobby ton of voice. Then she just had enough of that voice, all of a sudden star lost control of here actions, and charged straight towards the sound of the voice, the voice didn't jump out of the way soon enough, star had plummeted wright it to the "voice". ( Which had the body of a pony.) Star could feel blood, but she wasn't sure if it was hers or the voice (who she knew was just a pony know .) "WHY DID YOU DO THAT?????????" The voice screamed . " I did it because you wouldn't leave!!!! try to keep up!!" Star replied. "You didn't have to knock me to the floor and scrap my hove with your horn, know it's bleeding!" The pony/ voice said. Wait she actually wounded the pony / voice ???? She never knew that she was that strong!!!!!! " Well know why don't you get out of my house before i do it again!" Star replied in a cold dead ton of voice, that even sent chills down her own back. "You wouldn't !!!" The voice/ pony said . "I would!" Star said as she charged towards the voice/ pony .she was almost there when the voice/pony screamed...... "WAIT!!!!" "What ?" Star replied as if she didn't know what was going on, as she stopped running. "I'll go just one thing ". The voice/pony said. "And what is that?" Star replied. "I want you to join forces with me". > The other side > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The voice disappeared after that. But what the hey did it mean bye joining her force??????????? And should I ?????? Star thought, and she thought harder then she ever did. This was to much, I'll figure it out in the morning, she thought to herself . The next morning thing worn't any better , the same questions ran through her brain, it felt like there was and earthquake inside her brain , this was all way to confusing . But what she piked up was that the voice wanted her to help the voice conker something. But why me i'm not brave or strong or smart, Star thought to herself , was it because she wounded her???? Just why?????? ******** She just had about lost it, why was it taking so long for Star to make up her mind. How could Such an offer take so long for Star to make up her mind???? ********* That was it , Star had made up her mind she was going for it , she was going to help the voice . She knew that the voice lived in the woods because that's where she first head it. She walked slowly into the forest she was rather scared because the forest was rather strange and spookie. Star walked rather far into the forest before she heard the voice "I guess you're not a total full ," "bye the way my name is Trixie". "HM so are you a trix master????" Star asked . "I guess you could say that," Trixie replied. "So I guess this means you're Joining the other side." "other side?????" star asked with a confused look. "my side." Trixie replied with a smug look on her face. "Um can I think about it???" Star said with a please!!!! look on her face. " NO! you're with me know!!" Trixie said with yet another smug look on her face. "ok, so were do we start???"
