Previous ChapterNext Chapter-Everypony gets their letter, let's move on-
" Thank you for attending this important meeting. This time, it is not a silly prank like the others. This is an urgent meeting that will affect the running of this country." The citizens gasped. What was she talking about? Princess Celestia continued with her speech. " It is not my choice, nor do I want to do this, but I will dig straight into the icing. We-" she paused. "-are having a new princess to rule Equestria, alongside with Princess Luna, Princess Cadence and myself. We do not know who yet, until she is chosen." Again, the citizens gasped. Only murmuring was added to it. Did Celestia just say 'chosen'? Is the princess among them? Princess Luna took up the rest of the speech. " If any mare is interested, please sign up on this paper, and write your name and your age. Most importantly, explain why you want to run Equestria. Valid reasons and age will be taken into consideration." She levitated a clipboard with a piece of paper attached to it. " Please step forward if you are interested in this. That is all. Goodbye." She placed it on a table next to her. Cadence added," If no mare wants to, we understand. It is a great responsibility, after all."
" Did I hear what Princess Celestia said right? She is going to choose a mare to be a princess?" Rarity asked in astonishment and excitement. She eyed the others, and nudged them. " Hint, hint." The five stared at her, and Rarity could have sworn she saw a split second look of disgust on all their faces.
" Ah'm not going ta, Rarity. Didja really think Ah would sign up for that?"
" To be honest, Rarity, being a princess adds some burden to your shoulder. I'd prefer reading of ruling."
" The princesses look so serious all the time, it's boring. I wanna have fun!" (There was a popping sound, then confetti was scattered on the ground.)
" Sure, go ahead, Rare. I'm going to watch you not be a princess! You're really too prissy for it. But since I'm the loyalest of the loyals, I'm still gonna egg you on!" Rainbow smirked, and Rarity narrowed her eyes.
" Um, if you want to, go ahead..I-it's not like I'm...going to stop you or anything." A whimpering sound was heard. Rarity stared at them.
" You girls...." Rarity began. Then she burst out," are the best friends ever!" She gave all of them a hug at once, then zoomed off to the sign-up list at such a speed that Rainbow felt a bit of envy. The five looked at one another, astonished at Rarity's positive outburst, and bewildered at such speed. They gave (boss) pony shrugs and strolled over to where their friend was.
" Hey Rare! Good luck, but if you get chosen, we're gonna be very shocked!" Rainbow teased. Rarity, who, surprisingly was not fazed one bit, was...dancing?! She was doing jazz hooves, and sweating like crazy. They had never seen her as anxious and nervous as that.
" I can't believe I'm actually doing it!" When it was the mare's turn, she had trouble getting a grip of the pencil, and began writing in messy hoofwriting:
To the princesses that are reading this; my name is Rarity, who, would very much like to, eh, 'sign-up' for position of third princess of Equestria, my age is (this is censored) and my reason being is very simple. I just want that fabulous crown~!
The others stared at her incredulously.
