Revenge is Delicious

"Whoa, whoa, watch out Sweetie Belle!" Scootaloo said whilst balancing an orange on her snout, alongside her best friends Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. They were in the market by Applejack's fruit stand, and while the Crusaders were trying to juggle terribly, Applejack and her friend Rainbow Dash could be heard having an argument.

"Whadda ya mean you can't come to the show!?" Rainbow asked with anger.
"I mean me an' Big Mac got to get the Zap Apples in before it's too late!"

Right after she heard her idol was having an air show, Scootaloo started to waddle over to Rainbow to ask if she could join in. Suddenly, Scootaloo lost her balance, knocking into Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle in the process. When the fruit had stopped flying everywhere, Applejack and Rainbow Dash started to laugh at them in front of everypony. Due to their cruelty, the Crusaders started to cry and cantered off. The two mares had not meant to make them cry, but it was too late. They could now only hope that they would forget, and if that didn't work, they could always bribe them with an apple pie.

Back at the tree house, Sweetie Belle spoke up.
"Alright Crusaders, we obviously aren't fruit jugglers, but there was no call for them to start laughing at us like that, so I say we get revenge."
"We'll whadd'ya suggest Sweetie Bell?" Apple Bloom questioned.
Right then, Sweetie had a wicked grin that nopony had ever seen before, produced a bottle that they hadn't seen since Hearts and Hooves Day, and pointed at the equipment shed in a shelter. Slowly, the other two Crusaders caught on, donning mischievous grins of their own. They cried in unison: "Cutie Mark Crusaders Vengeance Masters, GO!"

The next day they all went to Rainbow's tree where she usually slept and found her looking aimlessly into the clouds wondering aloud," I wonder why all the clouds are normally so small, I think it's a little too convenient for pegusi." She was stopped when she heard the familiar voice of a certain orange coated filly speak. " Rainbow Dash, Rainbow Dash, we need to talk to you" Scootaloo said with optimism. Normally RD would have brushed her off and flew away, but she was bored and always loved putting a show on for autographs. "Yea, what is it squirt I'm busy" she said disinterested, then Scootaloo, still very happy said, " We have a new sports drink for you, it's supposed to help Pegusi fly smoother." Right then, Rainbow Dash swooped it from her hoof and whizzed back to her perch to see the title of the mysterious sports drink. Ms. Cheerilie helped them write the title and ingrediants when the fillys told her it was for a prank, and in a sense, it was. Right after she came down from the tree and thanked them for it Rainbow Dash swigged it down, this was the moment they were waiting for, they blindfolded Rainbow and tied up her wings.

Nopony saw any wrong with their actions, figuring that Rainbow Dash and Applejack were brave ponies whom could easily leave the shed in case of trouble. Their alibi for getting the farmer mare in the shed was the false fact that a snake was in the shed. After swiftly covering up a loophole in their logic, claiming Big Macintosh was busy and unable to help. Fluttershy was also apparently busy "helping injured animals".
"Ah guess y'all little fillies best be on your way now," Applejack said obliviously. "You won't wanna be here when I take care of that ol' snake." The flyer had been quite the hassle to get in the shed, but the excellent acting skills of Scootaloo gave the Crusaders enough time to shove the vial into her mouth. Scootaloo had faked a wipeout on her scooter, followed by some crocodile tears, forcing Rainbow to fly over and check on her. A sneak attack had been enough to knock her out. Applejack didn't know this, nor what was going on at all.

After entering the shed, Applejack heard a weird noise originating from the corner. Applejack saw Rainbowdash bound up and moaning like she had been knocked unconscious. When her blindfold had suddenly been removed by a string attached to the roof, Applejack suddenly heard the shed doors closing and locking, much to her discontent, and then she heard Rainbow behind her."Wha-wha are ya' doing Rainbow" Applejackasked as she saw Rainbow Dash behind her, staring intently into her eyes.

The trio had thought that after an hour or so, they had satisfyed their thirst for revenge, boy were they wrong.
When they finally opened the door, they saw what they never expected: Applejack was making out with her. After a tense moment of screaming Applejack spoke up,"Little fillys, what are ya'll doin' in here?" Panic was spread all over her face,"Me and Rainbow here were just huggin' that's all I swear!" It was too late, The Crusaders had seen it for a full minute before Applejack noticed them. It was then Applebloom spoke up,"Big Sis, we saw everything, and honestly?" Applebloom pulled out a camera,"We're glad you did that, perfect for revenge."

The Crusaders had already taken the pictures and were all grinning from ear to ear while Applejack had a look of terror. She remembered what had happened the day before and knew that they were going to take it to the Gabi gums section of the school's paper. "Why you little brats, you were behind all of this weren't you?!!" They had all known the answer and suddenly started running, however, they had forgotten that Applejack was the best athlete in Ponyville and immediately stopped. After the Crusaders had apologized and gotten the cure from Zecora, the antidote had instantly worked. Rainbow Dash freaked out when Applejack had told her the story, the whole story, and then she spoke up,"After an ordeal like that, I think I know what their punishment should be." She whispered something to Applejack and they both smiled as Applejack said," Come with us you three, and not a word, understand?" The three nodded. After buying another bottle of Love Poison, and telling zecora of the ordeal and their punishment, Zecora gave them a bottle for free.

Later that next day the two mares and three fillys had arrived at the local baker's shop. After ringing the doorbell, an exited and radiant pink mare, with a darker pink mane and three balloons for a cutie mark, answered the door. "hellooo! oh, Applejack, Dashie what are you ponies doing here?" With an utterly terrifyed look on their faces, the fillys pleaded for them not to, but it was too late and Rainbow had said sincerely," Pinky, AJ and I made this potion at Zecora's hut and discovered that it is so magical that it can turn you into an even better baker. The fillys were begging as if their lives were at stake and as Pinky had gulped it all down, they made a blood-curdling scream.

At that moment, Pinky lost control of herself as she was staring at the Crusaders and instinctively, she started to give chase for a moment and at that time the little ponies started galloping away as Rainbow Dash and Applejack started laughing and then Applejack spoke up,"RD, the things that happened in the shed, never happened, I mean seriously, if anypony saw that my life would be ruined,so never ever bring this up, OK?" Rainbow Dash nodded as they saw the three little fillys being chased by the crazed Pinky and yet, as the sun faded before them, for some reason, they both moved to the nearest hill, kind of already knowing what was going to happen, looked at the sun set, and resumed making out. (sorry for the run-on)

Author comments: finally fixed it completely, thanks to my new editor Forms of Genius and specifically, Ping, without him, this couldn't have happened and I appreciate all feedback

Btw I didn't mean for it to sound shippy, but it just kinda happened, so, yeah.
