Ponies' Just Desserts
Look Before You Sleep
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAJ tried to remove the giant tree that fell into Twilight'd bedroom. This tree wouldn't have fell in here if previously Rarity hadn't foiled AJ's hard work by putting every branch (AJ worked hard all day getting down) right back up. And now the tree was in Twilight's bedroom; Twilight was in way too much shock to do anything, leaving AJ to get rid of it herself, 'WAIT A MINUTE!' thought Applejack who just realized Rarity can help, Rarity was mean to her all day but AJ knew that she herself wasn't any better. But this was about helping Twilight.
"Rarity! I know that we don't see eye-to-eye, but..." AJ said to Rarity, but noticed that Rarity was picking up a bunch of books that fell over.
"Now what the hey are you doing missy!?" Shouted AJ.
Rarity just huffed, "Cleaning up this mess SOMEPONY made. Who was that? Oh yes, that's YOU!"
AJ tried moving the tree some more but just couldn't.
AJ was getting less and less patient, she turned back to Rarity, "Never mind the books, just come help me...come help Twilight; do it for her!"
"Not until you apologize!" Answered Rarity.
AJ could no longer take it, her face turned steaming red hot, "HOW CAN YOU BE SO SELFISH!?! YOU! THE ELEMENT OF GENEROSITY! ARE THE MOST SELFISH, SPOILED, ILL MANNERED MARE I HAVE EVER MET! THE ELEMENT MUST HAVE PICKED YOU ONLY THROUGH PROCESS OF ELIMINATION! NOW HUSTLE OVER HERE OR I'LL BUCK YOU ALL THE WAY TO HOOFINGTON! Twilight needs our help to get this dang tree out of here but you're too full of yourself to help a friend!"
"Well, I NEVER." Stated Rarity without turning to look at AJ.
AJ had had it, Rarity has crossed the line like nopony's business. AJ lost all sense of restraint and rushed over to Rarity and started bucking her repeatedly.
Twilight then came out of her moment of shock and rushed over to break the two mares up, "BREAK IT UP BREAK IT UP! You two are too old for this!" That comment made the brawling mares stop, but not for the reason Twilight wanted.
"Excuse me sugarcube?" Asked an exasperated AJ, "YOU wanted a sleepover. Aren't YOU too old for THAT? You're 21 years old and made me put mud on my face..."
"EP EP EP! THAT is ONE thing, but FIGHTING is another." Argued Twilight.
"Forget this! From here on out, our friendship is OVER!" Stated Rarity who then proceeded to trot home.
"But...it's raining...are you REALLY going out on a night like this?" Asked Twilight.
"A little rain never hurt anypony. Goodbye, and goodRIDDANCE!" Answered Rarity with a huff.
"Same here." Stated AJ then she too walked away.
Twilight just stood there shocked, she lost two of her friends over what she realized would have been stopped if she was herself instead of just trying to have a sleepover.
The Next Day
AJ trotted over to Twilight's. What she did yesterday was inexcusable, she just HAD to set everything right with her two friends.
AJ knocked on Twilight's library and Twilight opened the door.
"Hi Twi." Said a nervous AJ, "I just wanted to apologize for what happened yasterday."
Twilight smiled and said, "It's okay AJ; I spoke with Rarity about it earlier, and I've come to the conclusion she's been a really awful friend to both of us." That caught AJ by surprise.
"Huh? But...I..."
"AJ, it turns out Rarity only wanted to be friends with me because I know Princess Celestia. I sent a letter to Celestia and she has agreed to find a new element of generosity. It turns out the only reason Rarity was selected as it in the first place was because the way the elements work is the next ponies to find it after the previous element bearers lose custody of them are to become the bearers by the one representing the elements the most at the given moment. Because of Rarity's selfishness she is no longer the bearer; and obviously Nightmare Moon didn't have EITHER of those features."
"So, you mean, the elements DID only pick her through process of elimination?"
"So it seems." Said Twilight.
And so Rarity was no longer the element bearer and she didn't care she only wants to be clean and lazy.
THE END
Author's Note
This episode made me not like Rarity very much.
If you find this to be making Rarity really mean then keep in mind that this isn't really supposed to be all that canon. It's more for fun.
