Living in a dream

Once we were at Sweet Apple Acres, we were received by Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity and Pinky Pie. They were wearing very beautiful dresses made by Rarity.

“Stella, what happened?” Applejack asked me. “Are you okay?”

“We found her unconscious in the woods!” Apple Bloom said, and then she added: “I think somebody hit her!”

“Is that true?” Applejack asked me, and I didn´t knew what to answer her. Despite the dream I had, I had no proof that Rainbow Dash was the one who attacked me. What if it wasn´t her the one who hit? Applejack would never trust in me again if I defamed one of her friends, even if I did unintentionally.

“Nobody attacked me, I just tripped over something in the woods…” It wasn´t a very convincing lie, but it was the best answer I could think at that moment.

“Oh, Stella, you should be a little bit more careful if you are going to wander in the woods…” Applejack told me.

I accepted her advice with a smile on my face, but I wasn´t sure about what was going to happen in the reunion of her family. I was ready to express my true feelings to Braeburn, but I didn´t wanted to make a scene in front of everyone.

“Stella, I´m afraid that your hair got messed up in the woods…” Rarity commented me. “But don´t worry, I can fix your looks just in time for the reunion…”

“Give her the dress you prepared specially for her!” Pinky Pie said enthusiastically.

“Hurry up, Rarity!” Applejack said. “Granny Smith is going to made her speech and we all should be present to hear it!”

“Okay, just leave it to me!” Rarity replied her.

Rarity combed my hair and gave me a very beautiful dress she made for me yesterday using her unicorn magic.

While I was putting my dress, I could hear Applejack talking with the others, with a concerned voice.

“I don´t know what is happening with her. She isn´t acting like she normally does…Her behavior is way too aggressive…”

“Darling, Rainbow Dash is always aggressive!” Rarity replied her, giggling. “Not that I have any kind of problem with that…”

“No, I´m sure that there is something wrong with her…”Applejack insisted. “In the last three days, her behavior has been completely different than usual.”

“Do you think that she could have any kind of trouble?” Fluttershy asked with a concerned voice.

“If only Twilight was here, she would have told us what to do. But now she is in a very important meeting with princess Celestia…”

“What if the Rainbow Dash that is with us is not the real Rainbow Dash, but an evil clone she made using magic to do her chores?” Suggested Pinky pie, with a weird expression on her big blue eyes.

“Pinky, what are you talking about?” Rarity asked her.

“I just don´t know what I´m saying…” Pinky Pie admitted, while giggling.

I didn´t say anything because I didn´t want to say anything bad about Applejack friends disregard of my personal opinion on them.  However, once I was ready, me and the others sited down around a big table, the place where Granny Smith was going to made her speech.

Even when I didn´t say anything, being there was very uncomfortable for me, since Rainbow Dash was there, hugging Braeburn as he was her boyfriend and most of the ponies invited to the reunion didn´t knew what to say. Braebrun himself seemed very ashamed when he saw me, and he wasn´t able to say anything to me.

“I didn´t know that Rainbow Dash liked  Braeburn so much…” Rarity said. “I thought she was dating Big Macintosh…”

Big Macintosh heard that last commented and joined the conversation immediately to give one aclaration:

“We only went on one date…But we decided to stay as friends…” He explained us, blushing. But he seemed a bit jealous of Braeburn. I wondered if he still had strong feelings about Rainbow Dash. However Rainbow Dash didn´t pay any attention to him, and she glared at me.

Granny Smith made an incredibly long speech that lasted at least 25 minutes. The ponies were impatient to eat. But once Granny Smith ended her speech after reading a poem, we were ready to eat.

But then…Two unexpected guests appeared in the place, wearing white robes. One of them was Zecora the zebra. And the other one was…Another Rainbow Dash!

Everyone gasped.

“What is going on here?” Granny Smith asked with confusion.
