Chapter 1

I like to sit on my favorite hill after fights, and just think about them. Like the one I just had with my best friend and roommate Opal Whisper. She swears she didn't eat all the salad, but what was that leaf sticking out of her teeth then?

It was a silly thing to get so worked up about, but I was saving it for my mom. Opal knows she’s coming over today. Or at least I thought she knew. If she ate the salad she probably didn’t know or forgot.

“Sigh” well I had to get up, and go apologize now. I was the bad guy in this situation, so it’s only fair to Opal. She deserves it for being the best pony I could ever hope for in a friend.

“TWEET! HALT!!” What!? it sound like she’s shouting at me? “YOU THERE STOP!” She is shouting at me!!

This is annoying! I’ll just turn around a shout at her to.“what do you need?!” What!? That’s not a cop?!

“Snicker! oh I got you good! HAH! serves you right!” Ugh! it’s just Opal. Silly girl what does she want now?

“Jeeze you scared me Opal! What do you want?” I said to her. Well as long as she’s here I might as well apologize to her.

“Oh well I was just carrying out my daily quota for revenge today.” she retorted. I bet she doesn't even know that word. “And you deserved it to. Blaming that salad thing on me. Can’t a girl be hungry, and you could have told me about your mom visiting.”

Well at least she admitted it to me. “Yes yes I know, and I am sorry Opal. It’s just I thought I did tell you about mother. “sigh” forgive me please?” I had to sit after that. Opal is intense on her own, but also apologizing took it all out of me.

She looked taken aback a little. “Oh…. Well of course I forgive you Mystic. Only best friends can’t stand each other as much as us” I think she was relieved that I said sorry. Opal is a big softy on the inside, and cares for our friendship more than anypony.

Of course now I have to go get more lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, dressing, ect. “sigh” what a day. Then I also have to go my job! This day just got so much more harder. Oh well better go to the market.

“Hey Mystic!” UGH! who is it now?! “Hey um are you doing anything today?” Arg! It’s John! How many times do I have to say no! Well lets get on with this most recent rejection.

As I turn around I see John Star standing a bit away with a mare friend! “what?!” I don’t get it? Didn’t he promise to never have another mare in his life? He said I was the only one for him.

“Ah Mystic I just wanted to introduce you to my new mare friend. I realise I might as well give up courting you. I’ve had my heart broken by you to often. I wanted to introduce you to her” John…. I’m sorry….

Why do I hurt now? Well… well whatever! He has a life to live, and he finally stopped his excessive pursuits of me so its just fine. “O.K. I’ll met her. I don’t see why though. You should date whoever you wish. As long as it’s not me.”

“Really?!” Why does he look surprised at that? “Oh… O.K. well never mind then. We won’t keep you longer Mystic. Have a good day.” He’s leaving. I need to say something… SAY SOMETHING!!!! “sigh” He’s gone… that was quick.

I don’t have time to look over this encounter any longer! I have too many things to do today to dwell on it. First the store. Might as well get that over with.

Walking to the store is always an undertaking for me. I mean with all the sights to see, and all the other ponies around I get drained quick. Like that sight. Just a fountain right? Wrong! that where me and Opal became friends, and that bush is where we became temporary enemies.

“sigh” So many things to remember. I swear I need blinders. At least then I wouldn't get so side-tracked. Well at least the walk is over. O.K. Mystic just get in get the stuff and get out. Not to hard right?

Of course things aren’t what they seem. First I need to remember what we do and don’t have. Then I also have a-lot things on my mind. Like that whole John thing, and how I’m going to eventually have to deal with my mom. She can be so intense sometimes. She kinda reminds me of Opal.

Ugh! I can’t focus on that right now I have to get Salad stuff. Hm? Where’s the cucumbers? Should I ask? Might as well its there job to help me. I hope this isn’t too draning.

“Hey um excuse me? Sir? Do you have any more cucumbers?” Oh great he’s looking at me now. Just bare with it Mystic you need his help.

“Sorry miss we ran out of cucumbers. I’m afraid you’ll have to go to another store. I’m sorry for any inconvenience.” He didn't sound very sorry. Oh well glad that’s over. Got the stuff just get out! Oh good no line.

I’m just going to tune this out. I don’t need this cashier talking my ear off about her domestic life. “excuse me?! ma-ma!”

“Huh what?” oops a little too tuned. “What is it?”

“I need you to pay for those that will be 10 bits please.” Right duh! Mystic pull yourself together. Did I bring the bits? “sigh” Oh good they're right here.

“Oh right yes here” Please don’t touch me. Just take the stupid bits.

“Thank you ma-ma have a nice day. Would you like help getting those in your saddlebag?” No! Please don’t touch me.

Just grin and bare it Mystic, grin and bare it. “Oh yes please, this saddlebag is a bit broken” Why did I say that!! My bag is brand new!

Gotta get out of here. Just get out of here. “bye” buck! I sounded like a criminal. Whatever I’m not even going to deal with the ponies on the ground. Just going to fly home. Oop other pegasus. Get away please.

“Oh hey Mystic! how are you?!” darn it!!!!

“Busy bye!” Almost home free. Don’t crash Mystic. Crumb! I’m going to fast!! “AAAaAAaaAAAHhhHHHhhhH!!!!!!” And there goes my door. “OOoowwww! ouch! that smarts.” “gasp” did the groceries break!?

“sigh” Oh good they're fine. I don’t think I could survive another grocery trip.

“Ehem! And just what are you doing breaking the door down Mystic Wings!” Oh no! I didn’t make it here before my Mother! Here comes a lecture. “Sigh” why must everything I do be wrong?

“Sorry Mother I will have it replaced as soon as possible.” I have to sit for awhile so as soon as possible might be while.

“See that you do! What are you doing without a speck of food in this house ether!? I am very hungry Mystic! Where is that salad you promised me!?” Ugh does she have to yell?

“It’s right here Mother I was just out getting food when I crashed.” Don’t yell anymore. Please? You’ll wake Opals dog.

“Hey hey HEY! what with all the shouting down here?” NO! Not Opal to!! Why do they have to keep shouting? “Woah! What happened to the door? Mystic did you crash through the door? Sweet!” Opal helped me up now, and at least that’s more than my Mom did for me.

“SWEET!?!?! Excuse me young lady! Who are you?!” Buck! Mom never met Opal. I always dreaded this day. I hope mother approves of my best friend.

“Oh uh Mom? This is my best frie-”

“MYSTIC!! Who is this pony!?!?” Well maybe if you had stopped yelling I could have told you!

“Well as I was saying this is Opa-”

“Yo Mystic! Is this your mom!? She’s kinda intense if you know what I mean!” Does nopony hear me when I am talking?!

“You know what! Introduce yourself. I am tired so I have to g-”

“Intense!? Just what are you implying by that!?” “sigh” I’ll just sneak past these two. I hope they don’t notice me.

“You know what I mean! You know! Intense! You know what I mean Mystic! Mystic?!” “sigh” Finally got away… Darn! I have to go back, and put the food in the fridge.

You know what? No! I’m just going to go, and take a long nap, and forget today even happened.

“hm?” “sniff” What’s that smell? It’s not Opals dog. It sort-of smells like a dog, but also not. Whatever it is it’s coming from my room. I hope Opal wasn’t doing another weird thing in there.

Then I opened my door, and the last thing I saw was the ugliest pony ever. I couldn't even scream.
