Chapter 1

As I woke up this morning I stretched and yawned while smiling about how today was going to be a great day. I got out of bed and started to do my daily routine for when I wake up. I had just finished putting on my fake eyelashes when I saw something on my face. At first I thought it was probably something dirty so I tried to swipe it off with my hoof. When it didn't come off I frowned now what could that be? All of a sudden it hit me I HAD A BLEMISH, A PIMPLE, A HORRIFYING ZIT THAT HAS RUINED MY BEAUTIFUL FACE. I screamed and screamed again and again. I couldn't believe it. I never had a pimple before. How was I supposed to handle this? I ran around the house panicked and scared and then finally fainted on the ground.

I woke up to a face that I knew all to well it was Sweetie Belle. Scrambling up while hiding my face I said, "Why Sweetie Belle aren't you up early. I just.......need to use the bathroom hehe right the bathroom um I'll be a minute!" I rushed of but just as I was about to open the bathroom door Sweetie Belle spoke up.

"Rarity why do you have a big ugly pimple on your face?" she asked quite bluntly

"Darling whatever do you mean? It's just a little red dot of um of lipstick! Yes lipstick. I'll wipe it off and then everything will be alright." I said through clenched teeth. Why of all the ponies does she have to find out about my secret?

"Rarity I saw it! When you fainted I even touched it and tried to scrape it off. When it didn't come off I was pretty sure it was a pimple." Sweetie Belle announced proudly like she just made a great discovery.

"Fine it is a pimple but you can't tell anypony. You must never speak of this again. Do you understand me Sweetie Belle?" I demanded harshly

"But I already told Applebloom and Scootaloo while you were out we already planned to become......CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS PIMPLE REMOVERS!!!!Scootloo and Applebloom suddenly appeared and joined Sweetie belle in her cheer.

Rubbing my head as I fell down from the blare of the fillies I made Scootaloo and Applebloom promise they would never tell anyone about my secret. Satisfied I returned to the bathroom as the CMC went to the library. Sighing I finished applying my makeup and put a bit of some extra concealer to cover the small blemish. Removing my robe I set out to go to the library and secretly look for ways to remove a pimple. After a small thought I decided to go to spa and do my research in magazines instead. But the siren went off in my head Aloe and Lotus were the biggest gossip ponies around since they run the spa and hear about almost everything there. So I grabbed a hat and then hurried of on my secret mission.

Meanwhile back at the golden Oak Library the CMC went up the twilight to ask if she had any books on removing pimples. Frowning she asked, "Now why would you be researching on a topic like that?" Immediately the CMC went into a huddle.

"Should we tell her?" Applebloom whispered.

"I think we should. She's Rarity's friend." Sootaloo responded.

"We can ever make her Pinkie Promise." Sweetiebelle agreed. Finally they turned around, grabbed Twilight and whispered the secret into her ear, and made her Pinkie Promise to never ever tell anypony. With her mouth opened slightly in surprise Twilight nodded and got some books for them and told them to go upstairs so no one sees them.

When I got to the spa I ordered my usual and sat down while "casually" grabbing one of the magazines that blared out on the front cover "PIMPLE REMOVING TECHNIQUES". Glancing down at it I quickly covered it up with another magazine.I was so focused on taking notes that I didn't notice when Aloe came over and told me that it was her turn. I smushed her notes into my bag and slammed the magazine down and laughed, "Oh hehe I didn't notice you were there I'll get going then." I blushed as I put the magazines back while being careful to hide it so other ponies won't know what I was reading. When I finished my spa trip I headed to the library to do a little more research on the topic. When I got there Twilight rushed over to me and handed a bunch of notes over to me and ushered me upstairs. Confused I asked, "Why are you taking me upstairs and doing all of this secretive stuff?" I questioned.

"Well it's for your pimple of course!" Twilight whispered

After realizing what she just said I harshly asked her, "Just who exactly told you this?"

"Oh it was only the CMC they came in to do a little research for you they made me Pinkie Promise and didn't tell anyone else." Twilight assured me. At the mention of them they immediately tackled me down and started to put stuff on my pimple while they all wore innocent smiles.

When they finished Sweetie belle handed me a clipboard that said medical report. When I glanced at it I saw it said that they put a cleanser on my face and if I repeatedly did that every night and didn't touch my pimple it would go away eventually. They handed me a bottle of skin cleanser and ushered me yet outside of the library and said, "Thanks for coming to the CMC dermatologists! Seeing that the sky was already dark I headed home. When I was at home I examined the fruits of my research. Finding that everything I found was about not touching it and putting cleansers on it I decided it was finally to take this up a notch. I was going drastic measures zone and decided to see Zecora in the Everfree Forest tomorrow straightaway in the morning. Letting out an exhausted yawn I went trudged to prepare for bed. After I finally finished and drifted off to sleep I started dreaming of creepy pimples chasing me.
