Chapters Timidthy, French Press, Sweet Dreams and Bumper had decided. They wanted to finally try cider! So they had gotten up early so they'd be at the front of the line to get some. They all waited until they heard Apple Bloom place the barrel full of cider on the stand to pull out their bits. Apple Bloom looked down and her face turned to concern,
Twilight was met with the curious gaze of two fillies and colts as they knocked on her room door. Finally Timidthy asked,'I thought for sure their parents explained to them why having cider isn't the best idea.' Twilight sighed and said,
' Dear to who this may concern, If I'm not here that means I'm in line for cider season I'll be back when Apple Jack runs out of cider.
From, Starlight'
Timidthy sighed and sat on Starlight's bed, they would never figure out the answer! Bumper the growled and said,
The sun had set and Starlight had successfully managed to get a mug of cider. Starlight walked down the hallways of Twilight's castle. And was surprised to realize that her door was open. 'Wiered I thought I had shut the door.' Starlight thought as she walked into her room and her jaw almost dropped to the floor when she saw her room. Everything in her room. (Including the bed and it's sheets) we're either ripped, teared, broken, or covered in cider. Starlight counted and saw their we're fifteen cider mugs on the floor and two on the bed. Some of the cider mugs looked as of not all the contests we're drunk and had been tossed on the floor. Finally she heard a small moan, it sounded like the voice was in pain. As Starlight made her way towards the voice she saw a couple of strands of yellow hair underneath her desk. Starlight used her horn the light up who ever was underneath and she paled. It was French Press, she herself was pale and her yellow freckled cheeks we're a deep crimson red. She was clutching her stomach. And Starlight could swear she saw tears in French Press's eye's. Starlight's magic wrapped around French Press who was still in too much pain to notice. She then wrapped the filly up in one of the sheets on her bed that hadn't been destroyed. Starlight was scared and worried she had a sinking feeling she knew what had happened.
Starlight had called the mane six and the Cmc to figure out French Press's side of the story.
"Actually I was at Sweet Apple Acres getting some cider." said Starlight bashfully.YOU told HER to tell them why they couldn't have cider! I told them to go to you!" said Apple Jack, Twilight smiled nervously. French Press's face twisted into a look of confusion.
Where's Timidthy and Sweet Dreams?
Author's Note
Again sorry for the last chapter and long wait I got a bit of writers block I hope you like this chapter though!
Where's Timidthy and Sweet Dreams?
After getting to the castle the ciders effects on Bumper soon began to ware off.'I hope Timidthy and Sweet Dreams are ok.'
The mane six and the cmc we're on a search for Timidthy. As they sped through the town in and out of buildings and searched every nook and cranny. Twilight was trying her best not to panic if Timidthy had hurt himself Celestia would kill her! Rainbow Dash flew up to get a better look. When she saw a very faint dandelion yellow flash come from the Everfree forest. Dash paled a little and flew towards the forest. The other's following knowing she had found Timidthy.
"He's in the Everfree forest!?" Twilight screamed as she looked at the untamed wilderness before her.
"Yeah and we need to catch him before it's too late!" said Rainbow as she ran into the forest as the other's followed in pursuit.
"Oh I hope he's okay." said Fluttershy, unfortunately she was answered by the sound of Timidthy shrieking. Apple Jack looked around and saw a yellow strands of hair sticking out. She ran and urged the other's to follow, the cmc and the mane six looked up and saw Timidthy up in one of the tree branches. He had a tight grip on the tree and his mane and tail we're unnaturally (for Timidthy at least) messy. His eyes we're pin pricks as the cider he had drank was beginning to ware off. But his horn still sparked uncontrollably.
"It's okay Timidthy stay calm and we'll get you down." said Sweetie Bell. Timidthy nodded as his mind (while recovering from the cider). Was trying to figure out what had happened. And how he'd gotten in a tree in the most dangerous forest in Equestria. Scootallo flew up and tried to lift Timidthy off the branch, but his grip was tight. Scootallo tried begging, pleading, and coaxing but nothing worked. Timidthy was just too terrified to let go. Scootallo was just about to let one of the adults take the rails. When she saw some sort of gleam in Timidthy's eye's and he let go of the branch. He looked up as if he was straining his neck to see something. The mane six and cmc we're considering to grab Timidthy while he was searching the sky. Until a white blur landed on top of Timidthy, it was Sweet Dreams! Sweet Dreams looked dizzy, her mane and tail we're tangled. Timidthy after coming over the shock smiled. But before anypony could get the kid's down. Timidthy's horn sparked again. And teleported him and Sweet Dreams to an unknown location. The group was silent for a moment until Twilight broke the silence with a scream of frustration. Now the group of ponies needed to find Timidthy and Sweet Dreams (again). The two of them could be anywhere in Equestria. And everypony (especially Twilight) hoped they werent in Canterlot.
"Where are they!?" Twilight screamed as she, her friends, and the cmc searched Sugar Cube Corner.
Meanwhile at Twilight's castle French Press had just woken up. Her head still ached a little but she felt better. French Press looked around the room. It was made from crystal like everything else in the castle and she layed on a soft (and somewhat bouncy) bed. She looked over to see Bumper who looked as if he was just waking up himself. Bumper looked around and gave a weak smile to French Press, French Press wanted to ask Bumper if he was okay. But she decided to take a look out a window that was at the end of her and Bumper's room. And what she saw made her heart skip a beat, Bumper noticed and wobbly got a look for himself. And as he stared out the window him. French Press and the search party of ponies. Saw green menacing clouds circling somewhere in the center of Ponyville. As the same thought came over them. 'Sweet Celestia.' Bumper and French Press looked at each other knowing only one pony alone had that much power. Bumper struggled to teleport but he managed to get him and French Press outside the castle and ran to the rescue of two friend's in need.
Bumper and French Press continued running as they felt the static in the air grow stronger. And as they stopped at the center of Ponyville they saw Timidthy. The clouds we're beginning to circle around him as he struggled to gain control over his magic. Sweet Dreams layed closely as she stared in terror. Bumper tried using his magic but it was drained from the cider, he couldn't do it. French Press noticed this and bit her lip, they we're sunk. The clouds began to swirl in a tornado like funnel as it began to lift Timidthy into the air. Sweet Dreams tried to fly into the tornado but she was repelled back.
Meanwhile the mane six and cmc we're running towards the tornado. As they all had a sinking feeling they knew who it was coming from. They stopped in their tracks as they saw French Press, Bumper and Sweet Dreams. Trying to make their way to their friend.
Meanwhile as the center if the tornado Timidthy's body was experiencing extreme pain. His horn ached like the high heavens, his hooves felt as if they we're burning. And the rest of him body felt numb as that overall feeling clashed with the pain. Timidthy's eye's watered he had no control over his magic and he couldn't get himself out. Timidthy only prayed that somepony was trying to help on the other side.
Luckily for Timidthy his friends we're ready to help. Bumper was using his sword to find a weak point in the tornado. French Press was styling Sweet Dreams's hair into a curly cute style. That would stun Timidthy long enough for phase three to commence. While Sweet Dreams used her sweet dream powers to enchant the clouds. The adults looked on both with confusion and curiosity. Suddenly a loud crack was heard. As everypony looked to see. Bumper had found a weak point a medium-sized whole gaped through the tornado. And lighting was zipping and zooming out of the hole,
Meanwhile Timidthy felt a pleasant sensation come over him. As the golden clouds surrounded him and he felt at peace. Timidthy smiled but the pleasant sensation died down almost as soon as it started. Timidthy soon began to feel pain again as the electricity started again. Timidthy eyes began to water again as he felt alone. Suddenly his eye's gleamed as he saw a white and gold filly fly through and come closer to him. Timidthy's eye's widened, the electricity died down again. As Sweet Dreams wrapped her wing around Timidthy. And made sure to keep Timidthy distracted long enough for the plan to work.
French Press, Bumper, the mane six and the cmc saw the tornado had drastically slowed in speed. Bumper smirked and lit up his horn as he shot a beam of magic into the tornado. And French Press threw a can of shaving cream into the tornado as it looked like it was ready to explode.
Sweet Dreams and Timidthy's locked gazes came to a halt. As they felt the stability of tornado decrease. And they heard a muffled explosion, Timidthy jumped as his horn stopped sparking due to fear. And Sweet Dreams knew she had to seal the deal. So she held Timidthy close ans kissed him, and as that happened the tornado fell apart completely. Sweet Dreams and Timidthy lowered slowly to the ground. And the tornado disappeared completely with a blinding flash.
Bumper, French Press, the cmc, and the mane six looked to see Timidthy. He was fast asleep wrapped in Sweet Dreams's wing. And Sweet Dreams gave a smile of relief as she fell asleep as well. Bumper sighed as he passed out and French Press yawned sleepily. As Twilight levitated her, Bumper, Sweet Dreams, and French Press. As they all walked back to the castle for some much-needed rest.
Epilogue: A lesson learned
By the time French Press, Timidthy, Sweet Dreams, and Bumper's little bodies. Had finally got all the cider out of their system was around midnight. The kid's all woke up the next morning feeling a lot better. And as the kid's age their breakfast in the throne room they all talked.
"I'm never gonna have cider ever again." said Timidthy,
"Same being a unicorn and having a headache isn't something you'd like." said Bumper as Timidthy nodded sympathetically.
"Yeah and not being able to fly straight gets annoying and embarrassing." said Sweet Dreams,
"Embarrassing? Ha! I had the worst stomach-ache, headache and I had to be coddled over like a baby! Now that's embarrassing!" said French Press with indignity in her tone. The adults listened on and rolled their eye's,
"Well if y'all would've waited and been patient then you could've avoided all that." said Apple Jack, Bumper shook his head.
"Do you know us!? The only one who had patience is Timidthy and Sweet Dreams! And they usually give into stuff because if peer pressure." said Bumper, Scootallo and Rainbow chuckled at the statement. As Timidthy and French Press blushed.
"Just remember this anytime you want cider." said Sweetie Bell the kid's nodded. As they all finished their breakfast. Timidthy, Bumper, Sweet Dreams, and French Press decided they'd play inside. After yesterday they'd had enough fresh air for a while. And as the kid's played they all made sure to remember one important rule:
'No Cider!'
Author's Note
Sorry for the short chapter
Catch Bumper!
The mane six and the cmc ran to Sweet Apple Acres as fast as their hooves could carry them. Finally they heard a crazed insane laugh unfortunately that laugh was Bumper's. Bumper's magic was shakily holding three mugs of cider. The cmc slowly advanced onto Bumper. While the mane six got ready for what ever Bumper's cider filled brain had in store. Bumper's ears twitched slightly as his eye's focused in on the cmc.
"Just stay calm Bumper and don't move an inch." said Apple Bloom calmly,
"Yeah, we just are gonna take you back to Twilight's castle." said Sweetie Bell, Bumper's magic flickered slightly. And he had his head tilted to one side as his warped brain considered his options. Until Scootallo said this,
"Yeah, away from all this cider." Bumper's pupils dilated to pin-pricks and he drank all three ciders in one gulp. His eye's widened and his smile turned crazed, before the cmc had time to grab him. Bumper ran in between the cmc's legs knocking them down. The mane six tried to catch Bumper as well but the only one who manged to grab him was Starlight. As her magic wrapped around him. Starlight struggled to keep Bumper in place,
"Okay Bumper it's time to go to the castle." said Starlight, Bumper's horn glowed and sparked. As he tried to free himself from Starlight's clutches.
"Okay fine! I'll go with you guy's!" Bumper said, everypony cheered. Starlight's grip loosed a bit, Bumper smiled evilly and ran as fast as his hooves would take him.
"Stop him!" screamed the cmc at once, everypony chased after Bumper. Bumper ran as fast as he could (but because of the cider his speed was noticeably reduced). His legs we're also struggling to keep his running path strait. Twilight noticed this and tried to use her magic to grab Bumper's legs. But she stopped herself grabbing Bumper's back legs was probably not the best idea. After all does a colt hopped up on cider tripping and rolling down a dirt road sound like a good scenario? Twilight sighed but gasped as she realized was heading into town. Bumper meanwhile saw his chance of escape. And decided to duck between the legs of many shoppers and street venders. But Bumper's plan had a bit of an over site. Bumper crashed into one of the ponies legs and he was soon encased in purple magic. He was soon levitated to the smirking face of Twilight, her friends and the cmc. Bumper only hung his head in defeat as the group of ponies took him back to Twilight's castle.
