It was just another fine night in the tranquil town of Ponyville, not a single thing misplaced. The town was dark, most of it's residents had fallen asleep, the only building with any sort of light was the Carousel Boutique. Although it was done serving customers for today, it was now the venue of a slumber party for six certain mares.
The Elements of Harmony.
The six mares all sat in a circle, on their own sleeping bags save for Rainbow Dash who was hovering above everypony else.
"-and then I did a couple more barrel rolls and boom! Before I know it I just did another Sonic Rainboom!" Rainbow Dash said, a proud smirk on her face.
"That's nice and all, but Rainbow, don't y'all think we should be talkin' 'bout somethin' everypony here can relate too?" Applejack asked
"I guess." Rainbow Dash said as she shrugged.
"So, Rarity, how's the Boutique doing?" Twilight Sparkle asked
"Oh just wonderful! Business has been booming lately!" The marshmallow mare replied
"So, just out of curiosity, what's the most popular piece of fabric here in your shop?" Twilight Sparkle asked
"Silk definitely. Oh that reminds me! Would you excuse me for a moment, I have some business to attend to. I need your opinion on something." Rarity said
The alabaster mare walked over to a dress. It was made out of silk and was mint green with a lyre design on it.
"What kind of fabric do you think would be best on this dress?" Rarity asked her friends.
"What's the most fabric they use to make those exercise clothes?" Rainbow Dash asked
"Cotton." Rarity asked
"Cotton it is then!" Rainbow Dash said
"I was thinking more of Nylon." Twilight said
All five ponies pitched in as Rarity blasted the dress, trying to see which kind of fabric looked best on the dress. Literally there wasn't a millisecond of silence at all. The stress and irritation within Rarity was rising with every passing second.
"Would all of you just be quiet!" Rarity turned to face her friends just as her horn was lighting up with a ball of blue magic.
The beam of blue energy flew off the unicorn's horn and flew right into a mirror on the wall and then proceeded to continue bouncing everywhere, reflecting everything and anything that it came into contact with. The mares panicked save for Pinkie Pie who simply stood in place and squeed: "Woooooo! Light show!".
The five elements all ran off in different directions and trying to dodge the beam of magic in general, Rainbow Dash was hovering in the air trying to evade the light rod, Pinkie Pie still stood in the center gazing at the magic laser in awe.
After around half an hour of running around, the five mares all crashed into Pinkie Pie and landed in a heap as the laser bounced off a window and hit the elements and there was a blinding flash of blue light. When the light had faded, all that was left was a circle of black, the elements of harmony were nowhere to be found.
Instead, in their place were six technicolor plush dolls of the elements themselves.
"Cutie Mark Crusaders dress makers go!" The three little fillies yelled as Applebloom and Sweetie Belle hopped into the back of the wagon and Scootaloo got behind the handlebars of the scooter and buzzed her wings and the scooter sped off towards the Carousel Boutique.
"Sweetie Belle, are ya' sure Rarity'll let us borrow her stuff?"
"I'm pretty sure she will. She IS the Element of Generosity after all." Sweetie Belle replied
"If you say so." was Applebloom's response
The scooter skidded to a stop in front of the Carousel Boutique. Scootaloo took off her helmet and her mane sprung back into it's original position. Her two friends had also taken off their helmets and placed them in the wagon. The three little fillies entered the Carousel Boutique. The fillies looked around, and the first thing they saw were the six little plush dolls.
"Rarity!" Sweetie Belle called
There was no response to Sweetie's call, almost immediately Scootaloo noticed the six plush dolls.
"Um, gals?" Scootaloo asked
Sweetie Belle and Applebloom too noticed the little dolls. The three fillies walked over to the six little dolls and stared at them in curiosity.
"Sweetie, did Rarity make these?" Applebloom asked
Applebloom? Sugarcube! It's me! Applejack! Yer' sister! Galldarnit can she even hear me? the little plush Applejack thought to herself
"I dunno. Maybe?" Sweetie Belle asked
Sweetie! It's me! Rarity! She can't hear me can she? The little plush Rarity thought to herself
"But why would she make dolls?" Scootaloo asked
C'mon squirt, it's me! Rainbow Dash! Can you even hear me? Hellooooooo? The little Rainbow doll thought to herself
Wee! I'm a doll! Pinkie doll thought to herself
"Maybe she made it as a gift to Twilight and the others." Sweetie Belle said
We ARE the dolls! Twilight doll thought to herself
"Why don't we help Rarity deliver 'em?" Applebloom asked
"That's a great idea!" Sweetie Belle
Oh m-my, girls? Can you hear me? Oh no... was the line of speech floating around in Flutterdoll's head
The Cutie Mark Crusaders picked the all dolls up save for Rarity since this was her boutique, and headed back to the wagon. They then strapped on their helmets and put the plush dolls into the wagon. Sweetie Belle and Applebloom made sure to hang on to them tight, aware of Scootaloo's need for speed.
C'mon Applebloom, Cant ya' hear me?
I don't think she can Applejack.
How am I gonna fly again?! How am I gonna walk, talk and do other kinds of stuff now?!
Calm down Rainbow Dash, I'm sure we can fix this. Eventually."
I don't want it fixed "eventually", I want it fixed now!
Who's going to take care of Angel, or the other animals while I'm gone? Oh my, I hope he'll be alright.
Being a doll is so fun! Except for the part that I can't move, or talk to other ponies except you four. And Rarity. And I can't eat anything. Great, now I wanna be normal again.
The wagon holding the plush dolls and the other two members of the Cutie Mark Crusaders sped along the roads of Ponyville, not slowing down in the least for anything. Scootaloo's two passengers clung onto the wagon, making sure not to fall off or let their cargo fall off.
"Alright, let's go to The library first!" Sweetie Belle said to Scootaloo
"Why the library?" Scootaloo asked
"Because it's closest silly." Applebloom replied
The three fillies sped towards the tree shaped building. It didn't take long for them to arrive at the library. Scootaloo took off her helmet and placed it in the back of the wagon. Sweetie Belle and Applebloom did the same and hopped off the wagon, making sure to avoid damaging the rest of the plush dolls. Sweetie Belle took the little Twilight plush and approached the door of the library, making sure to knock before she entered.
"Just a minute." A voice from inside called
Soon enough the door swung open and at the doorway stood Spike, Twilight's loyal dragon assistant.
"Hi girls. Whatcha doin' today?" Spike asked the Cutie Mark Crusaders
"We're just here to deliver these little dolls my sister Rarity made. She made them for her friends, so we're here to deliver them." Sweetie Belle answered
"That's nice. Did she make me?" Spike asked
"Um, no." Scootaloo said
"Oh."
"Say, have you seen Rarity anywhere by any chance?" Sweetie Belle asked
"Nope. Haven't seen her. Did you see Twilight by any chance?" Spike asked
I'm here!
"Can't say we have." Applebloom said
I'm right in front of you!
"Weird. She was supposed to be here in the library by morning." Spike said
"Rarity wasn't in the Boutique either." Sweetie Belle said
Yes she was! She was just a doll!
"I didn't see Rainbow Dash clearing the clouds today." Scootaloo said
She's a doll!
"And I didn't see Applejack when i woke up this mornin'." Applebloom added
She's on the back of the wagon! As a DOLL!
"Strange. Where do you think they went?" Spike asked
Come on Spike, can't you see that it's me?
"Who knows? Maybe Celestia called them for an emergency meeting. Stuff like that happens all the time." Spike said
*Sigh* I give up.
"Hope they're okay." Scootaloo said
"They're probably fine. No need to worry. They ARE the elements of harmony after all. I mean, they imprisoned Discord, defeated the changelings and defeated King Sombra." Spike said
"I guess you're right. Well, hope they come back soon, see you around!" Sweetie Belle said as she and the rest of the Cutie Mark Crusaders strapped their helmets back on and hopped aboard their mode of transportation.
