a story that is based off the episode, Sisterhooves social, but with a twist :P

Rarity's parents leave her and Sweetie Belle for an entire week for vacation leaving her to take care of her little sister.
Everything was going great until Sweetie came up with the idea of entering the Sisterhooves Social, but ended up in a huge fight causing Sweetie to run away from home leaving a note behind, but what could it be?

NOTE: Before you say anything about grammar errors, I already went through Microsoft word and fixed it the best I could, yes I can understand if errors are still existing, but I will have my proof readers look at it in the future chapters.
Thanks for understanding.

Chapter 1- How everything went wrong

Chapter 1- How everything went wrong.

It was a stormy day in Equestria, sounds of water splashing was not the splash of fun; it was a splash of frustration, worry and sadness.

Rarity has been looking for her sister Sweetie Belle for weeks now; herself and her friends have been looking everywhere and still can't find her sister that she loves with all of her heart.

Rarity was running franticly with tears streaming down her cheeks "Sweetie Belle, I know you’re out there somewhere, alive and not dead!"

She didn't expect a response from anypony, not even her sister. Rarity wasn't alone in finding her beloved sister; her 6 friends were also helping Rarity in finding her sister Sweetie Belle.

"Sugarcube, Ah' know we will find your sister, Ah' know we can, it's just ah' matter of time before we do" Applejack said, trying to keep her friends confidence up.

The group has been looking for Sweetie Belle for weeks, still no sign of her. The other crusaders Applebloom and Scootaloo, have also been helping in searching for their friend.

"Rarity" Twilight started "How did this even happen, I should have asked you this earlier but it slipped my mind"

Rarity stopped in her tracks and noticed a cave in her side eye and told everypony to follow her inside.

"Give me light Twily, and I'll tell you all on how it happened"

"Of course" *Twilight replied, giving a bright latent light coming from her horn*

Rarity took a deep breath and exhaled slowly

"Alright, here goes"

***Ponyville 6 weeks earlier****

It was a bright morning in Ponyville; Celestia's sun was rising over the horizon with bright shining colors.

The Carousel Boutique sat still in the morning sun. Rarity was still asleep, having a divine dream of pancakes, apples, and every other breakfast food that she looks forward to every day.

*Sniff* "Oh the wonderful smell of blueberry pancakes is simply divine, and the welcoming smell of apple cinnamon toast, and the smell of... Smoke"

Beep beep beep beep beep

"SMOKE?!"

Rarity jumped out of bed and fell down the stairs with loud thumps before hitting the ground below.

"Rarityyyy You ruined the surprise! I was going to serve you breakfast in bed!" a familiar voice shouted.

Rarity took off her sleeping mask to come face to face with her sister, Sweetie Belle.

All she could give her sister was a small angry look.

"Is there something wrong sis?" Sweetie belle asked.

"Listen Sweetie, I appreciate the kindness you were trying to give me but, you almost burnt the house down!"

"Now now Rarity, that's not how you talk to your little sis!" A familiar voice said.

"Mother... Father?" Rarity said giving eye contact to her parents who were sitting at the table

Both of Rarity’s parents walked over to her and gave her a hug and spoke "Why yes sweetheart, it's so good to see you!"

Rarity returned the embrace. "It's good to see you too but, why did you bring Sweetie Belle here?"

Pearl let go so that she could tell her the news.

"Your father and I are going to be going on vacation, so we want you to look over your sister"

"For how long?" Rarity asked.

"A week" Pearl responded.

Rarity's eyes widen with worry "A... a week, you mean 7 days?!"

"Yes, 7 days and 6 nights, don't worry your father and I will return home soon" Pearl said assuringly

"You’re Mom and I will only be gone for 6 days, today's Tuesday so we will be home next Tuesday the 18th" Magnum said giving specific detail.

"I'll go get my stuff from dad's wagon!" Sweetie Belle said excitingly.

Rarity moaned "But mother"

Pearl put a hoof on Rarity's mouth "Everything will be fine dearie"

A loud clash hit the tile floor as Sweetie Belle came back with her stuff

"This is going to be the best week ever!" Sweetie Belle said with a smile.

***Ponyville Train Station 30 minutes later***

"Alright you two, be good for Mommy and Daddy and promise me you won't kill each other" Pearl said letting out a chuckle.

"Okay, we promise" Sweetie and Rarity said at the same time.

The cab pony was pulling away, with their parents waving goodbye until next Tuesday.

Rarity's mind was overwhelmed with the thought of knowing that she has to take care of her little sister for an entire week.

'How can I take care of my little sister? She’s nothing but a disaster!'

Sweetie Belle notices Rarity's expression. "You okay sis? You seem, well I don't know... blank?"

"What H-huh?" Rarity responded, trying to snap back to reality. "Oh, I'm fine darling, thanks for the concern"

Sweetie Belle smiled "Your welcome big sis! I will always look out for you!"

Rarity turned away and sighed muttering "Great.... this will be quite a week" and walked back into the house.

"So, what should we do first?" Sweetie Belle asked.

****Reality came back****

Everypony was confused.

"Everything seemed fine there Rarity, how could of Sweetie Belle run off?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah, how could she of run off?" Rainbow added

Rarity's eyes were filling with tears

"I..." *Rarity began, trying hard to speak in between hard sobs* "I... we... we had a huge fight"

"Oh... oh my, how bad was it?" Fluttershy asked curiously.

"It was.... Bad" Rarity replied.

"But, How bad exactly?" Applejack asked also.

*Rarity was having a hard time re living the events that happened 6 weeks ago*

"Bad enough to where she... Ran away, claiming that she already committed suicide, but... but I know that she isn't dead because......"

*Rarity began to break down into more tears as the thought of knowing if her sister really did commit suicide or not, is hurting her badly inside*

All of her friends came and gave her the biggest hug that she ever received, they told her that her that they will find her sister, it was just a matter of time but they promised that no matter how long it takes, they will succeed.

After 15 minutes of love and comfort from her friends, she calmed down a bit and continued with her story.

"Okay so if you guys want to know how she ran off like I said, we got into a huge fight"

"What happened?" Twilight asked

"It was a beautiful spring afternoon, I was in my room cleaning up after finishing my latest design when Sweetie Belle came in and asked if we can enter the sisterhooves social. Of course you all know that I hate entering competitions that are going to get my beautiful hooves and mane all messy and gross. Sweetie kept begging and pleading me to enter competition with her, and I'll admit I'm stubborn so I kept saying no. She eventually got to the point to where she said to me that I don't care about her and that if I can't do anything that'll make her happy then she won't need a sister. That's where the fight began”

Rarity explained.

"What happened after that?" Twilight questioned

"Well..." Rarity started

****Carousel Boutique 6 weeks earlier****

"Why won't you enter the competition with me?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Sweetie, you know how I hate getting my mane and hooves all dirty"

"I know Rarity, but I want to do this so bad with you, it would mean a lot to me!"

"Listen Sweetie Belle, I know how you want to enter this competition with me, but my answer is no" Rarity replied back, looking away from her sister.

Sweetie Belle's emotions were mixing together in trying to win her sister over

"But why Rarity? I just want to-” Rarity interrupted her sister "For the last time Sweetie... the answer is NO!"

Sweetie was furious.

"FINE! I guess you don't care enough about me to even do one thing with me, all I ever asked was to do ONE THING" Sweetie Belle shouted.

Rarity's ears twitched as her little sister's squeaky voice bounced off her ear drums.

"Sweetie, how could you ever say such a thing?!" Rarity questioned.

"Because you don't care enough about me to do even something simple as a competition that I knew that we could do to spend time with each other and hang out like family... but I guess that's too much to ask since your soooooo obsessed with all this ridiculous pony design stuff that you forgot what was important!"

"I do know what is important thank you very much!" Rarity began "These designs are more important to me than anything in all of Equestria"

Sweetie was immediately hurt by her sister’s words; she couldn't believe that she said that her designs were more important than her own sister!

Sweetie began to cry as she spoke "I... I cannot believe that you said that!"

Rarity turned around and saw her sister crying... she was about to say something, but her sister continued.

"I cannot believe you would ever say something like that! I looked up to you, I cared about you, loved you, and been grateful to have you as my sister, but I guess I was wrong"

As much as Rarity wanted to apologize, she couldn't, she was absolutely speechless.

"No words to say? I knew you didn't care enough about me" Sweetie paused for a moment to re gain control of her emotions. "I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN! You'll never hear from me again neither and don't even bother to come look for me, Goodbye!"

With that, Sweetie walked out the door, slamming it behind her, leaving Rarity standing shocked trying to process on what just happened.

****Cutie Mark Crusaders Clubhouse****

"She really said that?" Applebloom asked

Sweetie Belle lowered her head into her hooves "Yeah, she did"

"Why that little...ponyfeather!" Scootaloo said in frustration.

"Listen Sweetie, Ah' know you’re going through something hard but, me and Scoots are here to help, if ya need anythin, just holler" Applebloom said with a

smile.

Sweetie lifted her head out of her hooves and smiled "Thanks Applebloom... Scootaloo, you guys are the best"

Applebloom and Scootaloo left Sweetie alone in the clubhouse so she could think.

'It still makes me mad that my own sister would say such thing!' Sweetie began to think 'I know I told her that to not even bother to come look for me but, was that all a mistake? NO! It was not a mistake! She doesn't deserve to even have a sister!'

Sweetie got up, and started stomping on the ground like a 2 year old, but stopped quickly as a thought ran through her mind.

'That's it, I know that Applebloom and Scootaloo are here for me but, I can't take it... I'm leaving Ponyville' Sweetie said to herself.

Sweetie then walked down the stairs and outside of the acres. When she reached the town's county line, she looked back and muttered "Goodbye Ponyville" and began to walk away, only leaving a note that was attached to the back of the CMC Clubhouse.

****Present Time****

Tears have been streaming down Rarity's face as she told her story.

"It... it hurt me inside that Sweetie Belle said such things, though it was my fault"

Applejack wiped Rarity's tears away and spoke "Sugar, i'm sorry to say that it was your fault to begin with, but that was the past, but for now all of us here are together to help you find your sister"

"She's right Rarity, we wouldn't be here if we didn't care for your little sister. My brother would do the same if I dissapeared or ran away" Twilight said giving eye contact to her friend.

Rarity sniffed a few times before speaking again. "Thanks, it means alot to me"

"Cmon girls, what we waiting on?" Rainbow started, jumping from the ground and into the air flapping her wings "Let's go find Sweetie Belle!"

"Rainbow's right" Rarity said confidently "I didn't come this far to quit now!"

"Alright then, let's go!" Pinkie Pie added.

"What Pinkie said" Rainbow included.

The group exited the cave and continued their search for the missing pony.

Chapter 2- Putting the pieces together

Chapter 2- Putting the pieces together

----Cutie Mark Crusaders clubhouse 6 weeks earlier----

It's been 4 hours since Applebloom and Scootaloo have heard anything from their friend Sweetie Belle.

Applebloom was worried about Sweetie Belle. "I wonder if Sweetie is okay"

"Yeah, I wonder that too" Scootaloo agreed.

"Let's head back to the clubhouse and see if she's okay"

Scootaloo nodded and together they headed towards their clubhouse. They both walked up the ramp and knocked on the door and Applebloom asked

"Sweetie Belle, are you okay?"

No response

"Sweetie Belle, it's us Applebloom and Scoots" Scootaloo said

There still was no response.

"Alright, were coming in" Applebloom said opening the door.

Applebloom and Scootaloo walk in the front door and gasped to find their friend gone.

"Where could of she gone too?" Scootaloo asked.

"Ah' don't know" Applebloom responded

"We need to go find her"

Applebloom agreed "We need to get Twilight"

Scootaloo shook her head "If we can't find Sweetie Belle, then we will ask for help"

"Okay" Applebloom replied.

They both walked out of the clubhouse to search for Sweetie Belle.

----Ponyville Plaza 1 hour later----

"Did ya' find her?" Applebloom asked

"No, I haven't, did you?" Scootaloo asked

"Obviously not" Applebloom started "We need to get Twilight and the rest of her friends, including Rarity"

Scootaloo nodded "Yeah, let's go get them!"

The afternoon didn't feel the same as usual for Twilight. She felt the need to study but her mind had grown wary of the pages in front of her. Her ears perked up eagerly at the sound of a knocking at the door; a sweet release from her books. It would however, be only short lived. She walked over to the front door and sighed a bit in relief. When she faced the fillies behind it however, worry struck her face.

"Hi girls!" she began, hoping to stir some optimism "Uhm... can I help you?"

"Twilight! It's terrible!" Applebloom began worriedly.

"It's Sweetie Belle" her orange friend followed up "We can't find her anywhere!"

Twilight furrowed her brow, sensing that their distress was not over a simple game of hide and seek gone awry.

She sat the two fillies down in the library, hoping to find out what had happened for these two to show up at her (of all ponies) doorstep.

She quickly learned that when Applebloom and Scootaloo had come back to the clubhouse, Sweetie Belle was no longer there. They'd looked for her in all of her favorite places but found no trace of their dear friend. That was about one hour ago, as they'd just met up at the plaza in the center of town. She had nodded in agreement when they told her what had gotten them so worried.

"You girls made the right decision in finding me first." She smiled at them for a moment. A smile that faded to a worry and a minor scold "Though you should've come here sooner."

"Thanks Twilight! Ah knew we could count on you!" the youngest Apple said. She looked at Scootaloo. "Now let’s go get the others!"

House after house the group gathered up the rest of their friends, AJ, Rainbow, Pinkie, and Fluttershy.

----Twilight's Library----

"C’mon, follow me back to the library" Twilight said looking towards everyone in front of her.

When they arrived, they settled to the table that was located in the middle of the room.

"What's going on Twi?" AJ asked.

Twilight sat down and sighed "It's Sweetie Belle"

"What about her?"

"She's missing"

Everyone gasped and gave shocked expressions.

"Mi-Missing?" Fluttershy stuttered holding a hoof to her mouth.

"Yeah" Twilight replied

"Wait... if we’re all here, where's Rarity?" Rainbow asked realizing that one of her friends was missing.

"That's exactly why we’re here" Twilight confirmed.

"Huh?" Rainbow started but being interrupted by her farm friend "What did she do this time?"

"Well, I don't know AJ; you will have to talk to your sister Applebloom and her friend Scootaloo if you want to know what happened"

"Applebloom" AJ Started

"Yes Applejack?" Applebloom replied.

"What happened between Rarity and Sweetie Belle?"

"Well" the young Apple started "She said that she wanted to enter the Sisterhooves Social that we suggested to her"

Scootaloo took over "But her sister said no and you know how Sweetie Belle is that she'll ask over and over till she gets a yes but that wasn't the case"

Applebloom took over again "Rarity said that she didn't want to get her hooves and mane all dirty and gross is how Sweetie put it.

Scootaloo transitioned in "However, Sweetie said that she wasn't important to Rarity and doesn't know what is important"

Applebloom put a hoof to her friends mouth "I'll finish" Scoots nodded "Anyway, she said that she does know what was important and that it was her fashion designs were more important to her than anything else, Sweetie yelled at her and then came to the clubhouse where she told us what happened, we left her alone so that she could calm down and when we came back, she was gone"

AJ was just as shocked as the rest of the group who heard what the two fillies had to say.

"What in the world?!" AJ started, a fierce look in her eyes "How the hay could her designs be more important than her own sister!"

"Yeah! How could her designs be more important?" Rainbow added

"Oh... my" Fluttershy started "That's really depressing, I can't believe she even said that"

"That's not right at all! How dare she say that kind of meanie thing!" Pinkie shouted.

"I agree as well, but all we know is that Rarity said that and now Sweetie Belle is missing because of her" Twilight spoke in disbelief.

"Alright then, we need to get Rarity to come here right now!" Rainbow said raising her voice

Everypony shouted "YEAH!" but was stopped by Twilight "Hang on ladies, I will go get her while the rest of you stay here"

"No Twilight, were all coming with you" Rainbow began to argue

"No Rainbow, you guys are only going to cause a fight, and I know for a fact that you’re going to start coming up with conclusions that are completely false"

"But-"

"Rainbow I said no"

"Okay then" Rainbow replied looking down at the ground for losing the argument

"I'll be right back guys, we will get answers from Rarity" Twilight assured her friends of her word.

----Carousel Boutique----

Twilight arrived to her white unicorn friend’s doorstep and knocked on the door.

Inside the Boutique, Rarity was interrupted from her work as she heard a knock on the door.

"I wonder who that could be" she said to herself

She heard another knock at her door "I'm coming darling" she said outloud.

She opened the door to find her purple unicorn with a purple mane and tail with 2 streaks of colors at her doorstep

"Oh hey darling, what can I do for you this evening?"

Twilight gave a serious look "We need to talk"

"Huh?" Rarity was quite confused on the response "Talk, what's going on darling?"

"Look, I'll explain when we get back to the library"

Rarity nodded, still quite confused.

Twilight began to walk back to the library and noticed Rarity wasn't following "Coming?"

Rarity locked the door behind her "Yes, I'm coming" and caught up with her friend

"Twilight" Rarity began

Twilight stopped in her tracks and put a hoof on her friends muzzle shaking her head.

Rarity's response was a confused look.

"Were here" Twilight said finally

----Twilight's Library----

Before opening the door Twilight looked at her white unicorn friend and said "I'll go in first to say a few things and then I'll let you in"

Rarity sat down "Umm okay darling"

Inside, Twilight walked in and closed the door behind her.

"Well?" Rainbow asked.

"I have her waiting outside" Twilight responded

"What are you waiting on Twily, just bring her in already!"

"Yeah, I want to give Rarity a piece of my cupcake mind!" Pinkie shouted

"Whoa hold up there girls" Twilight said, trying to stop her friends rage "I brought her here so that each of us can talk to her and see what happened"

Fluttershy stood up and said softly "She's right, there's no need to get all worked up because she did something wrong, we all make mistakes sometimes but, sometimes those mistakes can be forgiven with forgiveness"

Rainbow let out a frustrating sigh "I hate it when you’re right"

Pinkie stopped and smiled "Yeah, I guess she's right too!" and let out a few giggles.

"Agreed" AJ added

"Listen guys, I don't want anything to happen to her, please keep your hooves to yourselves. Especially you Rainbow" Twilight said strictly.

"Okay okay" Rainbow said quickly.

Twilight stepped out of the library for a quick moment, bringing in the fashionista.

"Rarity, I want you to take a seat in the chair" Twilight constructed.

Rarity nodded and sat down on the chair

"Rarity" AJ began "None of us here are going to hurt you however, we are all mad at you due to certain events that have taken place t'day"

Rarity was giving a nervous look "I really don't know what you’re talking about darling"

Rainbow friendly pushed AJ to the side and gave a frustrating, angry look at her friend "We know what you did Rarity, why did you do such a thing to your sister!"

Rarity was getting angry by the fact she was being accused by her friends even though she knows that she's guilty.

"Rainbow, I did no such thing!"

"Don't play that innocence with us Rarity" Rainbow said raising her voice even higher "We'll keep you here all night if it meant getting an explanation"

Twilight put a hoof on Rainbow's shoulder "I think she's had enough"

Rainbow pushed her friends arm away "I don't care, she will spill the beans"

"Beans, where!?" Pinkie said out of no where

There was a short silence

"No comment" Rainbow replied at her pink friend.

"I've just had about enough of this!" Rarity began "Do ya'll really think this is important?"

Applebloom and Scootaloo walked up towards Rarity, the bright yellow earthpony spoke first with a quiet friendly tone

"Rarity, it may be hard to believe but..." Applebloom was trying at her best to keep her emotions together "Sweetie Belle is missing"

Rarity was hit hard by that statement "Mi...Missing... how?"

Scootaloo sat down, looking at her friends’ sister in the eyes "She told us what happened between you and her; she came by and told us everything and we told her that she can have the treehouse to herself so that she could think, but when we haven't heard anything from her in 4 hours, we got worried so we came back up and saw her gone. We looked everywhere; we came here for Twilight so that we could get help in finding her"

"Oh dear... this all my fault" Rarity whispered, beginning to tear up.

"I KNEW IT!" Pinkie shouted

"Knew what Pinkie? No offense to you but, you don't know anything about this whole situation" AJ spoke.

"Yeah I know, I just love screaming out random things!" Pinkie said giving out a few giggles.

Rarity stood up "We need to find my sister"

"Rarity is right guys, we have a missing filly on our hooves" Twilight inquired "Listen, were all here to help you, I promise"

Rarity couldn't hold back a smile "Thank you so much Twilight!"

"Let's go, we have alot of searching to do" AJ leaded.

Everypony nodded and followed AJ out the door to search for Sweetie Belle.
