Ponyville Under The Dome

"C'mon Egghead, catch me if you can!" said a blue pegasus with a rainbow-colored mane to her purple follower. She turned her head around and expected to see a purple dot far away in the sky, instead she saw her friend just a few feet away and coming closer.

"You have to admit that I'm pretty fast" said Twilight.

"Uhm yeah, compared to a young pegasus, who had as much flight lessons as you did.", responded Rainbow Dash, then she added: "but you aren't nearly as fast as I am!" That said she flew away very fast, quickly bringing distance between her and Twilight. Even though Rainbow still wasn't flying at her maximum speed Twilight couldn't keep pace with her, so she had nothing to do except watching her friend getting smaller and smaller. That was until Rainbow stopped and waited for her to catch up. Twilight was again amazed by the flying skills of her friend. If she would fly with such a high velocity she could never  simply stop from one moment to another. Even at her maximum speed, which is far below Rainbows, it takes a couple of seconds for her  to stand still.

Suddenly Twilight realized why her friend was waiting for her, of course: When two ponys are moving and one of them watches the other one, the first pony doesn't see the second ponys actual speed. Instead the first pony will see the speed of the second one in relation to her own. So if Rainbow wants to see her actual speed she first has to stop. It's so simple! Based on her logic Twilight decided to fly as fast as she can and doesn't stop until she passed Rainbow Dash so Rainbow can see her maximum speed.

Too late Twilight realized that Rainbow didn't stop because of her, but rather because she hit something. Too late for Twilight to stop herself from hitting the same thing.

It was one of these days, that start with having a great idea right after waking up. Of course, when you are the great and powerful Trixie every day starts like this, or at least every day that counts. The idea she woke up with this day was that since this no-good unicorn Twilight Sparkle became a princess - dear Celestia they make everypony a princess lately - she hoped that Twilight moved to Canterlot or any other place that fits a princess better than some small town and she could try her luck again in  Ponyville. Her idea turned out to be not as great as she thought when she found out that not only is her nemesis still in the town, no, she also got a nice castle. How could things be worse?

Of course Trixie, no matter how great and powerful she was, couldn't know that things were about to turn way worse.

The only thing good that happened was that she was able to snatch an apple at that farm without anypony noticing when she leaved town. Well, maybe no pony but a little squirrel saw the apple magicaly floating infront of the unicorn, and it was a hungry squirrel. For a moment Trixie thought about sharing the apple with the starving critter, or she would have if she was anypony else. But the great and powerful Trixie had more important things on her mind so she didn't even notice the squirrel staring at the apple nearly drowling. When the chipmunk noticed that the unicorn wasn't paying any attention, it decided to take action into it's own hands and jumped at the apple.

Surprised by the sudden attack on her food, Trixie let the apple fall, which made the chipmunk miss the apple, and the apple rolled a few feet downhill. Trixie gave the squirrel an angry stare which didn't last very long since the critter only cared for the apple and was already running towards it.

That was when the apple suddenly split in half.

The squirrel didn't care and grabbed one of the halves and was already mashing it's teeth into it as Trixie, still stearing meanly at it, tried to grab the other one. However, instead of getting half of an apple she got an electric shock. She could have sworn that the squirrel laughed.

"Ouch" said Scootaloo as she crashed into a large pile of bags of flour resulting in a giant white flour-cloud.

"And, did it work?" asked Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom added: "Let me see your flank!"

Apple Bloom wiped away some of flour on the now-white pony to discover a blank orange spot.

"Yeah, I'm fine, thanks for asking." said Scootaloo sarcastically, she was a bit angry right now, being covered in flour isn't as much fun as it sounds, and Scootaloo thinks it sounds like it it no fun at all in the first place.

But she wasn't as angry as the pony they heard suddenly:

"WHAT THE HAY ARE YOU KIDS DOING IN HERE?!"

Scootaloo was about to answer the question but Sweetie Belle stopped her, whatever she would say it wouldn't help them. Instead Apple Bloom tried to find an excuse for what they were doing but she got interrupted by the angry pony:

"I'LL TELL YOU WHAT YOU ARE DOING, YOU ARE WASTING MY FLOUR, THAT MEANS YOU ARE WASTING MY BREAD! And now get out of here or i'll bill you the flour you wasted!"

And with that the three fillies left, although Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom had to hold Scootaloo back from picking a fight with the baker pony.

"So, we didn't got our Cutie Marks for baking. What's next on the list?" Asked Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom brought up a list full of ideas of what they could do to get their Cutie Marks. She checked 'Baker' off and Scootaloo, who calmed down again, said: "Check 'beeing white' for me too." and the other two fillies realized that Scootaloo was still covered in flour. They all laughed.

"Maybe we should get you a bath next, Scoot." said Apple Bloom, "You know what, we should call it a day and go to 'The Lake'. You can take a bath there."

'The Lake' Apple Bloom was referring to was merely a pond between two big rocks just outside the town. The three fillies found it during one of their failed tries to get a cutie mark and so far the three are the only ponies that know about 'The Lake'. They like it there because the two big rocks separated them from anypony else but they still let the sun still shine on 'The Lake' nearly all day which made it a great place to relax. They all agreed with Apple Bloom and so they went to 'The Lake'.
