Rock Farm Romance
Fishing Trip
Previous ChapterNext ChapterBefore I start this chapter, I forgot to give the last few children personalities, so here they are:
Ruby, a deep red Quarry Dragon, loves boxing. She is the lightweight champion of Equestria, though she has had many bloody noses. The taste of her own blood gives her renewed strength and vigor, which none can match.
Spinel, is a bright red earth pony, whose back/spine can support up to 40 times his own weight. Though Marble doesn't like it, when she is away, Spinel gives all his siblings a ride, even his father.
Sapphire, a deep blue unicorn, cries a lot. She cries when she's hungry, when she's hurt, or even when nothing is going on.
She can't help it though, but when she does cry, her tears become sapphires.
Tanzanite, is a baby blue Quarry Dragon. But if people didn't know any better, they'd think he was the Tazmanian Devil! (I don't own Looney Tunes!) Somehow he manages to spin faster than 200 mph, thus earning him the nickname, "The Tanzanian Devil".
Topaz, a honey colored Quarry Dragon, who eats so much honey, she has to have her mouth unjammed. But she can't help it, it's an addiction. She eats honey for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and constant snacks.
Tourmaline, is a peach colored earth pony, with a cranberry tinted mane. If there was such a thing as "Swagtastic", that would be the word to describe Tourmaline's fruit smoothies. Especially her peach and cranberry flavored smoothie, which, much to Marble's disapproval, Nite gobbles down after covering it in chocolate sauce.
Turquoise, a light blue Quarry Dragon, has big dreams. He believes that every princess should have a dragon helper. With that in mind, he hopes to one day become assistant to his favorite princess: Princess Cadance.
Zircon, a dark red earth pony, with a brown mane, moves so fast, he has a special unit just to describe his speed: A Zicron. Now, in correct calculations a Zicron would equal about 2,000,000 miles per millisecond, and yeah, I'm not going to try and convert that to seconds...
The next day, Marble and Nite made plans for the day at their enormous table, while everyone ate breakfast.
"So, your pa tells me there's a mud pit, complete with a hot spring, not too far for here. Who wants to go with me and have our own day at the spa?", Marble announced.
"And for those of you who don't want to go, can come fishing with me!", Nite smiled.
Diamond yawned before falling face first into her cereal.
"Diamond!", Nite and Marble exclaimed, lifting her head to see if she was okay.
"Huh...what...Oh! Sorry, Mama...I was just so excited about living here last night, I forgot about...*yawn*...sleeping.", Diamond yawned.
"Oh, well, you can sleep while I take your siblings fishing.", Nite smiled.
"Okay...Papa...*yawn*...good night...", Diamond grinned, before leaning on him and falling asleep.
After breakfast, Marble took Jade, Alexandrite, Fancy Diamond, Citrine, Turquoise, Tourmaline, Topaz, Rubellite, Peridot, Paraiba, Opal, Moonstone, Lapis Lazuli, Garnet, and Emerald with her to the mud pit and hot spring. Nite took Ruby, Spinel, Tanzanite, Zircon, Pearl, Onyx, Morganite, Aquamarine, Amethyst, and Diamond, who was fast asleep on his back.
Nite and his group reached an enormous dock, where everyone threw in their lines. Diamond insisted that they tie a line to her tail and throw it in while she was sleeping. After an hour, Onyx, Zircon, and even Diamond had caused a fish, Ruby started to lose her cool.
"Stupid fish! It's been an hour, and I still haven't caught anything! Diamond caught a whopper, and she was FLIPPING ASLEEP!", she screamed in anger.
Nite smiled, "Calm down, honey! You'll get something eventually! You just got to be patient."
Another hour, and everyone but Ruby had caught something...until...
"Look at this!", she exclaimed, pulling a fish as big as her out of the water.
"See? What'd I tell you? Patience always pays.", Nite grinned, taking a picture, before he threw it back in the water.
"Do you wanna know what pays even more?", Ruby asked.
"What?"
"Having you for a dad!", she smiled, hugging Nite tightly, as he returned the favor.
