3 - Manehatten

Previous Chapter

   Sweetie Belle stood on the train station platform. The train to Manehatten pulled up, and both Sweetie Belle and Rarity proceeded to board it. Once they were on the train, they didn't say much. Sweetie stared out of the window and watched the scenery change. Rarity stared down at her hooves. Was she sure that she had made the right decision? Was Sweetie Belle right? Could they've raised the money if they had tried hard enough? Rarity shook her head, reminding herself how many zeros there had been.

   She pulled a map out of her suitcase that showed her exactly where to go once they got to Manehatten. After staring at it for 15 minutes, she had memorized it. When she looked out of the window, to her surprise they were already passing some of the houses in Manehatten. After a couple of minutes, they pulled into the train station. Both Sweetie Belle and Rarity grabbed their suitcases and hopped of. Rarity led the way. Sweetie Belle followed after, taking all the sights and sounds of Manehatten.

Before to long they were outside their new home. Rarity opened the door. They entered into a kitchen-living room area. There were three doors leading off. Two bedrooms and a bathroom. Sweetie Belle decided which room would be hers, and she started unpacking. She put the picture of her, Applebloom, and Scootaloo On a small table next to her bed.

   She looked at it once more, and smiled, remembering their last adventure, hiking. They had ended up being chased through the forest by an angry bear. Although it had been scary, it was still better than where she was now.

   Sweetie took in her surroundings. The walls were a shabby grey colour, and only a little light got through the thick glass window. Sweetie sighed, and wished that she was back at home.
