The Revenge of the Crusaders
"Blank Flank!", Diamond Tiara teased Sweetie Belle, crowding around her. Sweetie Belle whimpered and tried to slink into the shadows. It was no use. Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon just kept on pushing the filly around.
"Come on Diamond Tiara, we have better things to do then hang out with her", Silver wore a bored expression. "Yeah, See you later, loser!", Diamond Tiara shoved Sweetie in the mud, then left, smirking.
Sweetie Belle trudged out of the murky puddle with a frustrated look on her face. 'Why should I and Apple Bloom and Scootaloo get bullied all day, everyday!', she thought, a plan already slithering into her head. "I've got it! This calls for a Crusader meeting at Rarity's! ... first, though, a small stop at Twilight's library", Sweetie mumbled to herself, a devilish grin on her face.

"Why do need a book on 'Frankenswine: A Pig's Tale' again?", Twilight asked the unicorn filly who was holding the leather-bound book. Sweetie Belle scratched at her mane.
"No reason really...just,uh...wanted to read a book...", she said, grinning uncertainly. "Ooookay", Twilight raised an eyebrow. "Thanks, Twilight! Gotta go!", Sweetie Belle sped out the door in relief.
"Hmm...", the librarian shook her head,"Fillies."

Apple Bloom was watching her sweet friend, now crazed with revenge, speak of the 'perfect plan' she devised in Rarity's closed shop. "See girls, all we have to do is follow the plan from this book and create the perfect monster to get revenge on Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon!", Sweetie Belle gasped for breathe. Apple Bloom looked at Scootaloo with her thinking cap on.
"I-I dunno, Sweetie Belle. It seems too far-fetched", Apple Bloom spoke.
"Uh, yeah. Remember last time we had revenge on a...bad seed", Scootaloo reminded the unicorn.
Sweetie just sighed and said, "This is different! It's Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon we're talking about! Come on, pleeeeaaaase...!"
"Guess it wouldn't hurt to try...", Scootaloo continued, "You in, Apple Bloom?"
"Yeah, but if it doesn't work the first time, then we're giving up", the trio went into the kitchen to start to make the perfect monster.

An hour later.....
"Sweetie Belle, what does this say? I can't make it out", Apple Bloom squinted at the smudge in the book.
Scootaloo walked over and said, "It looks like it says ... 'nice flowers'?"
"Well, there you go. Why don't you put some daisy petals in the mixture. I always thought daisies were nice. Here, Rarity has some on the windowsill", Sweetie Belle stuck a hoof toward the window. Apple Bloom nodded and quickly grabbed the petals with her teeth.
"Mun!", she mumbled, mouth full of the white flower.
"Huh?", Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo said simultaneously.
The southern filly spat the daisies in the pot and repeated, "I said that we're done!"
"Oooh! Cool", Sweetie Belle said. The Cutie Mark Crusaders raised their front legs to bump hooves when... "Wait!", Sweetie Belle shouted, "One more thing." Magic sparked around her small horn and it zapped into the mix. "You have to have magic to give it life. Okay, now we can do the Cutie Mark Crusader handshake", Sweetie and them bumped hooves in success.
"It says in the book that ya have ta' wait twenty minutes before the monster'll be ready", Apple Bloom said aloud, "We can go to mah Apple farm an' help Big Mac' with apple pickin'!" Scootaloo was already on her scooter and went out the door. Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom smiled and followed suit.

The moon was up in the sky and stars glittered the dark blue of night and if you looked really hard you could see the alicorn princess in the castle of canterlot, standing on the balcony with her dark hair shimmering in the shine. But Luna wasn't the only one awake on this starry night; Three young fillies were walking down a dusty road, returning from a trip to a farm. And if you listened, you could hear their conversation going somewhat like this.
"Such a hoot!"
"That bird danced like a crazy filly!"
"'Member mah brother?"
"Yeah. Who'd expect her to jump out of the tree? Ha!"
"I still can't Pinkie Pie scared Big Mac' like that!"
"Ah, I'm so glad we all decided tah go there."
"Wow, it's already sundown?"
"SUNDOWN?!?!", the crusaders yelled. "We were supposed to be back in 20 minutes!
Rarity's going to be home by now! She's going to freak the hay out!", Sweetie Belle worried. The three ran off toward the boutique. After a couple minutes, they arrived, gasping for breath. A scream emitted from inside. "RARITY...!!!!", the fillies ran inside. "Rarity, Rarity, are you hurt?!", Sweetie burst through the doors to the kitchen.
"Hurt? Why would I be hurt, darling?", Rarity was covered in fur balls, "I was just admiring your adorable little pets."
"B-B-Bu....Huh?!", the blank flanks sputtered.
"Yes, they are just so cute!", she replied, showing one of the fur balls to them. It was a chocolate brown rabbit, but with a smaller face, golden eyes, and it was as round as a ball. The crusaders were speechless. "Now, I've got to get my beauty sleep. Ta ta!", Rarity left to her bedroom.
Scootaloo groaned and said, "Ugh! We were supposed to get a monster, but instead we got stupid, little pieces of fuzz!" One of the things growled at the orange filly and latched its teeth onto her. "Aaaagh! Let go! I take it back! Nice fuzzies, nice!", she yelled. The fuzzies calmed down and started to bounce, happily all over the Cutie Mark Crusaders.
"Better than getting bit", Sweetie Belle said. Apple Bloom was looking annoyed at the one fuzzy jumping on her head. After a few hours, Sweetie was started to get really ticked off. The fuzzies kept on bouncing everywhere and wouldn't let her or Apple Bloom and Scootaloo leave the kitchen. They kept on wanting to be entertained and to have fun, but they wouldn't let them sleep. Sweetie Belle had enough."STOP IT!!!!! IT'S SO ANNOYING! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!", she shouted. All the fuzzies stopped and stared at the three of them with intense hatred. Claws were unsheathed and their teeth bared. The fuzzies pushed the worried fillies into the corner.
Right as they were about to attack, Apple Bloom said, "Please, don't hurt us! We'll do anything!"
"Anything!", Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle agreed.
The fuzzy monsters glanced at each other, an evil grin forming on each of their faces. "An-thang?", one attempted at speech.
The crusaders nodded, wide eyed.

Diamond Tiara was waltzing down the street with her B.P.F. (best popular friend), Silver Spoon. They were just discussing about how rich their parents are when- "Dear Celestia, what's going on there", Silver Spoon nodded toward Rarity's boutique. Weird bunnies were being groomed by three fillies dressed in... carrots?
"Silver, those are the Cutie Mark Crybabies!", Diamond laughed, using Bab's wording. The two meanies jogged up to blank flanks. The crybabies looked tired and had bags under their eyes."Hey losers, what are you doing with such cute rabbits? You don't deserve such beauties", Diamond put one on her back using magic.
"oh no. Don't take them. We love them so", Apple Bloom said, winking at her friends.
"You already have a cat. We're doing you a favor by taking them. More than one pet would, for sure, be too much trouble for you", the duo put all the bunnies in a cart and started to walk away, giggling.
When Diamond and Silver were out of earshot, Sweetie Belle grinned, "So worth it." She turned to her fellow peers, "Revenge is sweet."
