Rather Rapunzel

once upin a time there was a pony named twilight sparkle. she was the best and more prettiest pony ever, wvenmore then princess selestya! so princess selstya was jellus and said “im sick of twy”

so im gonna put her ijna tower so nopony will say shes hould be pricess enstead of me!”

everypony was real sad cuz they liked twilight but they cudnt stop her cuz she eas princess and thats what princesss do sometimes so they cudnt stop her even thiugh they watned to. twilight was resl brave though so she said its okay everypony i will go to the tower so dont be sad okay!and everypony felt a little better cuz she was being allnice about it.

so twikight went to this tower that princess selsya madd with her magick cuz shes a alicorn and can do that sort of stuf without barely even trying or so i hear. anyway twilight dprakle went to teh tower and was super sad she cudnt see her friends enymore cbut she tried to be happy since shed already told everypony. “i wonde what spiek is doing right now!” she aaid but there wasnt no one to answer her so she just decieed to answer herself. “ i bet he sitting in the liberry wishing i was princess enstead of selstya cuz i wudnt lock up ponies in yowers or dragons neither cuz dragojs are okay too if theyre like her i think.

and this began teilights life as a towerpony. she most times just talked to her aboyt what her frends and doing and if they missed her and were going to rescue her but she kinda hoped they wudnt cuz then princess zelestea wud be so mad that shed put them in tower to! maybe even not that, but WORSE! so rwikight just contented herself with reADIng cuz she loces that and princess selestea felt kinda bad about the hole tower thing so she made a lot of boojs with her magick when she made the tower so twilight wudnt be too aad and try to uump out or something

so twikight had been teapped in the towr for some amount of time i cant decide how much, when suddenly a pony? appearing from the horizon, it wassss…

the grat an powerful trixie!!?!

is that that gret an powerdul tricie?!” i ask her? i thinj it is! will she dave us cuz i don’t mind if she gets caut and locked in a towrr cuz she eas really mean to me but i huess ill forgive her if she gets me down i sulpose”

i am the greet and powrful trixie! she yelled up at us ((o btw im a character now xalled butterlicious its like owlicious excpet im a butterfly and talk)) i have come to save the twikight speakle in the tower! o great and pworful trixie, thank youf or your kinde genorosity, but howeber will you get me frok this tower! it is pretty tall and yoru too little. yeah i added and theres bars on the window too incase you cudnt tell!

curses i have been foiled time and again for not even the grat and powderful trixie can be taller nore barier enough to save thou! strong, princess of my heart, i shall send mine armies to relase thou

andthen she ran back into that horizon. “ah man, that was close” twikight said sadly. “yeah maybe nexy time” i said with a shrug, except for me it was like lifting my wings cuz im a butterfly and i dont think those have shouldrs. “yah your porbably right cuz your the onky person i know thats even smart than me i mean insect” she said cheerfly so what now?” “i dunno wanna braid each others manes or somethin” “eyeah but you don’t havenone” “ah man your right howd i forget?!” “you silly” teilight said witha laugh that was more laughy then any other laugh. i cudnt tell her but id dtarted to hope that shed neber get free cuz i was kinda falling for her but nto literally cuz i cud fly but i mean was really pretty and nice and so smart so i kinda wanted to kiss her i guess but i don’t know how that works between ponies and butterflies so i ddcided to just be frends………

FOR NOW

anywayz it was another long time efore spmepony else showed and it wassss….?! somepony i didnt know: “hey twi who dat o wait i do know its your bro right” “o yeah yur right its shiny armor hi shiny brother! will you help me out of this tow rim kinda bored and wanna fo back to ponyvile even thogh princess celestya doesnt like me enymore i think shell be okay with it?”

“……….” he didnt say A WORDS

“eh didnt you hear the lady she wants to down now plz!!!” said angerly but he didnt say

anything

“brothe why yoi don’t say anything! dont you love me armorchan?!” “i do he said fubally” but i cant go gainst crslstya becuz hes the princess” “TEN WHY YOU VEN COME HERE YOU BLEEPER”?!! i was yelling i was so mad but i didn’t wantto say the bad word cuz maybe some kids were reading this u dunno but i was still orate! “i jst wanted to see you once last time before i go” he daid walking saidly away. “now my shiny is gone what am i suppose to do..!” she was crying now cuz was real nice and senseitive so it made her rela sad that her own blood wudnt let her out of that tower even whan she asked all nice. “dint worry you still have me and someone will come to save her for sure’ i thought with conflict.

this time there wadnt as much time between the last pong ad this one, but it was still kinda long just not AS long if you know what i mean. “is there somep

ony coming?” teikight asked form in front of me. i was raiding her mane which was really long now cuz i cudnt hokd sizzors and she cudnt use magick enymore cuz celesra still had he ryou guesst it in the tower. “i dunno i cant see from her either” i said a little cross cuz my feelings were hurt.” well ill go look then” she did and it was! “whi is it this time?” i askd scared becuz what if it was celestya whod decidedthat twilight shudnt be in the tower enymore cuz she shud be DEAD enstead!?! i wud die before letting her do that i think because i still love twilight wven though it wasn’t mutual cuz id hinted at it and shed not noticed or pretend not to at any rate and thinfs had been kinda wakward for a while there and we were past that now but it was still there icud feel it in the she loorkd at me sometime.

but ot it was applejack1 “twailaight ai love you ai caint live wiout ainymo so lait me raiscu yo!”

“okay but only if you recsue my friend butteflicious too” “yeehaw cainsider it did?!” “eell how are you gonna get us

down then?” i asked pixishly. “waith mai rop o course!!” so she made a lasso out of the rope jstu like she don e in the show ((ya know what im talking about)) and throws it up and around and aroud and around until it covered all the barrs. and pulled. the bars came right out like they were butterd up with apple butter! o applejack htank you how can i ver repay you twilight said delightfully? “jaist traist mai aind jump ain daiwn” jackie aid standing in her back hoooves and holding those others ones out to catch. “ i funno its pretty tall” “let me carry you twikght its can be a final token of my love for you” “no buttefflciou you cant what if you die?!” “itd be worth it to know i redcued you and you be happy and free and with your fernds again” before she cud say no again i grew up and plucked her up with six legs and carried her to applejack

but it was too much and i died right after i make sure

she

was safe……..

i heard later that twilight and applejCK went right to her tofuness cesleste and asked her to oficially marry them. ceslestya still delt bad about kepping twilight in si long shed only ent to keep her long enough to earn a leddon not about frenship thugh about not being so wondefull all the time so people wudnt like her eymore. “yes you may kiss thr mare” at last she said it and they did and they did probably again later hut i stopped watching cuz i didn’t wana see i mean i died for her but whatever

((plus i need soemtihng to write about for my nezt one hinthint))
