Truth or Dare?
Chapter 3
Previous ChapterNext ChapterEveryone's eyes wen wide after hearing Fluttershy say this. Twilight opened her mouth, and was about to say something, until Rainbow spoke first. "Now, now Fluttershy, no backing out of dare's! You gotta do it!" Rainbow got a huge grin on her face, even though Fluttershy was one of her closest friends, she always liked embarrassing her.
"Oh, but I... I'm... I can't... Oh dear." Fluttershy was stuttering, and blushing madly. She had no idea what to say.
Applejack looked toward fluttershy with a sympathetic look on her face. Fluttershy put her head down and managed to whisper 'okay'. As Fluttershy was reaching down for her shirt, everyone else, besides Rainbow, were blushing from the strange situation this game got them into. Fluttershy grabbed onto her butterfly printed blouse and slowly started to pull it over her head, then when she got about half way she quickly pulled it over her head, and put her hands over her chest, trying not to expose anything. Fluttershy was still blushing wildly, and had her eyes closed shut. After a couple minutes of everyone staring at Fluttershy, Twilight spoke up.
"Um, Fluttershy? I think it's your turn." Twilight said, but Fluttershy only gave a small squeak and continued to hold her eyes closed.
"I don't think she has the willpower to go. Why don't you just go for her twilight?" Applejack suggested. Everyone else nodded in agreement and Fluttershy continued to whimper with her eyes shut.
"Okay. Pinkie truth or dare?" Twilight said while turning her head to Pinkie.
"Wubahla who?" Pinkie drunkenly said. She seems to be even more loopy than before.
"Uhh." Twilight said laughing slightly. "Truth or dare Pinkie."
"DaRe!" Pinkie said, while giving a rather large hiccup afterward.
"Umm okay... I dare you too. Ring the door bell of the neighbors, and run back!"
"Hee hee, you're funny Twilight, that's an easy one!" Pinkie said while trying to stand up. After she managed to get to her feet she wobbled over to the sliding glass door opened it and ran outside. the rest of them (besides Fluttershy who still had her eyes closed) ran over to the door to watch.
Pinkie skipped to the neighbors door, while humming to herself, and rang the doorbell. But after she rung it, she continued to stand there, it seems like she forgot why she was even at the door.
"Pinkie!" Twilight yelled across the yard.
"Yeeeeeeessss Twilight?" Pinkie replied with a loopy expression on her face.
"Get back here!" Twilight lightly shouted back. Pinkie skipped back to where the rest of the girls were, and just in time too because the lights turned on and the door started to swing open. Twilight grabbed pinkie and pulled her out of sight just before the neighbors saw her. After a few painstaking seconds the neighbors went back inside, while muttering to themselves about some 'crazy kids'. Once they left everyone gave a sigh of relief.
"That was way to close for comfort." Rarity said after a while.
"Okay Pinkie, your turn." Twilight said as everone got back in there circle.
"Okey dokey lokey! Hmmm... Rarity!" Pinkie said while swaying her head toward rarity. "Truth, or DARE!"
"Hmm, dare I guess." Rarity said, with a little bit of a nervous smile on her face. You could tell she was a bit worried what Pinkie might make her do.
"I dare you tooooooooo...." Pinkie said while drunkenly putting her hand to her chin as she thought of a dare. She looked around the room and her eyes fell on Fluttershy who still had her eyes closed and her hands over her chest. A huge smile went over Pinkies face as she said "I dare you to, kiss Fluttershy!" Fluttershy gave a little yelp after hearing this.
"Kiss Flutter- Oh dear..." Rarity looked toward Fluttershy, with a nervous look on her face.
Applejack decided to speak up "Now there sugar cube, I don't think Fluttershy can handle tha-"
"No! She must do the dare, no matter what!" Pinkie said with a triumphant, and slightly loopy, smile on her face. Rarity looked back in disbelief at Fluttershy. And after a few seconds, leaned in, and gave her a quick peck in the lips.
Pinkie looked back at Rarity, who was blushing slightly. "No, you cant get away with the dare that easily, its gotta be long and passionate!"
"Come on Pinkie, you cant make them do it twice." Rainbow decided to say. Even though she liked to embarrass Fluttershy, this seemed like it was way too much.
"Hmm, Fine..." Pinkie said, pouting a little bit. "Okay Rarity, your turn!"
"Okay, Applejack. Truth or dare?" She asked, while turning toward her.
"Hmm, I'll go truth this time." Applejack stated.
"Hmm." Rarity paused for a second to think of what to ask her friend. after a few seconds she looked back at Applejack, and said. "What happened to your parents, we know you have a big family and everything. But you've never seemed to mention anything about your mom and dad."
"My- My parents?" Applejack repeated with a look of disbelief on her face.
"Yeah Apples, how come you've never told us anything about them?" Rainbow said.
Applejack paused for a second, looking at her feet, trying to think of what to tell her friends. "Okay, I guess I do owe y'all an explanation." Applejack looked up from her feet, ready to tell her story. "When I was a little kid, my parents meant everything to me, we used to do everything together. Me and my dad would get up early every morning to go pick apples from the apple trees. But we always ended up wrestling in the mud for one reason or another. And me and my mom would always cook dinner together, usually something apple related of course. And Tuesday nights were my favorite because we would always make an apple pie for the five of us." Applejack gave a small smile as she thought of these nice memories. But then her smile quickly went away as she thought of what came after.
"But then one day a terrible storm came, the worst one we've had in years, even the weather team couldn't predict it. And before you know it, panic started going through Ponyville as buildings started to catch on fire, trees started to block roads. And of course my parents were the first to help. They saved so many lives that day." Applejack paused again as she thought of how heroic her parents were. "But when the mayor was trying crossing an unsteady bridge to get to another side of town, lightning struck a tree and it came down on top of it. She was about to fall until my parents came to rescue her. after a while they managed to get the mayor back on sturdy ground, but a powerful gust of wind caused the bridge rope to snap, while my dad was still on it, causing him to fall. Mom tried to jump out and save him, but she lost her balance too and fell too... That was the last time I ever saw them..." Applejack stopped talking and covered her face with her hat, but they could still see tears running down her cheeks.
"Applejack I-" Rarity started. "I'm so sorry."
