Working as slaves

Cherry than instantly put chains around Noteworthy's and Cheer's hooves and necks. "I can't believe this is happening.'' Cheer said. Cherry Jubilee than pulled out a whip and,SMACK! "GET TO WORK NEWCOMERS!" she yelled. Both Noteworthy and Cheer were pushing a big bowl of yellow and red cherries. Off on the right side of the seller there were two male ponies getting more jars to fill with cherry jam. Finally it was the end of the day and Cherry Jubilee untied every pony and sent them to a basement.

A young colt came up to Noteworthy and said "Sorry to ask sir,but why'd you agree to come here with Mrs.Jubilee?'' ''Well you see little colt she kind of grabbed on to my friend and I's hoof.'' Noteworthy said. Cheerilee was putting down a wheat sack as her pillow since no pony had any pillows.  Then a filly named Peach blossom came and set her tiny plastic bag down next to Cheer. Cheer watched Peach blossom sleep. She then tapped on Peach blossom's ear "wake up please." Peach than rubbed her eyes and said "yes ma'm?" "You can trade your plastic bag for my wheat sack if it's OK with you." Cheer said. "Oh ma'm you don't have to do that. I've been sleeping on this plastic bag ever since i got here." said Peach. "Well alright then." Cheer said.

New jam

The night was over and it was back to working. Noteworthy's mane was tangled  and a curtain red in his eyes. "I'm guessing you had a bad night of sleep?" Cheer said. Noteworthy groaned a yes. It was the same routine as yesterday: get chains on neck and hooves and work. The colt that Noteworthy met last night went in line behind him. "My name's Rumble." he said. "Nice to meet you Rumble." Note said. "Well SLAVES I'm out for a few hours so  bye." Cherry Jubilee said. Then she walked out the door." Most ponies stopped working taking deep breaths. Peach and Rumble undid their chains and sat down in a shady spot. One pony named Shadow flash yelled "WE'RE FREE!" He undid every pony's chains and put on some old fashioned music. Every pony grabbed the nearest partner and danced together. Rumble and Peach danced together trying to look fancy-like. Noteworthy grabbed Cheer's hoof and they were partners. Rumble than whispered into Peach's ear "I think they like each other." Peach made a small snorting sound. Then they both started to laugh. The dancing seemed to go on forever but then every pony sat down and ate the jam they made. Shadow Flash got up and said "look every pony it's been fun meeting all of you guys but I'm leaving SEE YA SUCKERS!" Shadow Flash than busted out of the door. But on his way out he ran into Cherry Jubilee. "Now where might you be going Shadow?" she said. "I'm uh going to uh um..." he said. "Ya know you've got 287 days before ya leave." Cherry than grabbed out a knife from her bag and stabbed Shadow in the chest. "That's what happens when you leave Shadow." Cherry walked back to the seller while Shadow sat in pain. The ponies heard her coming so they got chained up again. Cherry then walked in. That's when Shadow came up behind Cherry and stabbed her in the back with the same knife. "DIE B@#$%!" He yelled. It was quiet for about a minute but then every pony cheered. Most ponies gave him a hug. He untied every pony and they went home. And Cheer and Noteworthy went to the museum.

At the museum

After the war with Cherry Jubilee Note and Cheer decided to go to the museum they wanted to go to in the first place. Two ponies were putting up new pieces of artwork. Noteworthy took out his camera and snapped a picture. A cowboy pony was putting up a statue of Cherry Jubilee. Noteworthy took a picture of the statue and added some retarded filters. Cheer lee and Noteworthy both laughed. Maybe Rumble was right, they do like each other. Noteworthy stuck his tongue out and made fart noises at the statue. Two proper mares walked past them and were disgusted. "Sorry ladies." Note said. "So not full of manners ."  "OK." they both said. Now Peach blossom and Rumble went to their parents and siblings. Cheer lee and Noteworthy decided to turn the seller into a cheery seller to keep the cherries during winter forever.

Going back to town was the roughest part because Noteworthy lived far away from Cheer lee. Note cried one last tear before saying goodbye. Cheer lee gave Note a big kiss on the cheek "bye Note see you soon." Note blushed. So they parted away. Note became a writer for the Galloping  Express and got to see Cheer lee a little more often than usual.

Life without Cherry Jubilee was actually quite relaxing for every pony in Dodge Junction moved on to their own path. And as for Shadow Flash, well he became the best doctor in the Dodge. But the real question was what happened to Cherry Jubilee herself. Some ponies said she decayed in the ground, others said she was berried  by her husband, and some said she just became a ghost and went to hell. But the mystery remains. Cheer lee kept teaching students and Note kept writing articles. After three years of writing articles, Noteworthy won an award for WRITER OF THE YEAR.  Cheer lee decided to marry Noteworthy on November 27,2016 in honor of the day they met.
