Saphy hissed angrily as she slithered across the room still irritated with her friends attitudes. 'I can't believe them! I've never felt more insssulted!' Saphy thought but she was cut short when she heard a loose floor board fly open. She turned towards the uninvited visitor,

"YOU HAVE FIVE SSSECONDS TO LEAVE OR I'LL SSSINK MY FFANGSSS INTO YOU!!" She shouted. Her furry disappeared and shame took its placeas Babe was staring back at her with shocked eye's.

"SSSorry."Saphy said as she recoiled back avoiding any eye contact with the sheep, finally Babe blinked and walked over toSaphy.

"Well I can see your still mad but I highly suggest you don't take your poisoned wrath out on any of our friend's." Babe said,Saphy sighed as red blush spread on her cheeks.

"I won't but no one underssstandsss me." She said,

"That's no true. I do, and I might not approve with some of the remarks you make, but I know it's something that can't be helped." Babe said andSaphysmiled. Saphy wrapped herself onto Babe in a loose hug, causing the sheep to grow a sheepish smile.

"Thanksss."Saphy said softly as she undid her hug,

"Your welcome now come on I think we both need some fresh air." He said as him and Saphy headed out the door. Unfortunately they hadn't noticed a smirking Crackers who now had the biggest idea of a life time.


"Really?" Poppy said,

"Yep! Babe blushed after Saphy hugged him. I think he was just being shy because he's never been hugged before. But maybe we could get them to become a couple." Crackers sqwaked while Mrs. Oinkers rubbed the little hairs on her chinny-chin-chin.

"Makes since to me. They'll be so wrapped up in each other they'll stop annoying us." Cream Cake said,

"Okay it's settled then! We'll make sure those two fall in love and we'll get a little bit of peace in return!" Mrs. Oinkers said finally convinced and all of them cheered. After all what could possibly go wrong? Saphy and Babe we're now in the underground tunnels they had made to be specific they we're in a town under Canterlot. That was called Collerlot, when word of their tunnels got out pet's all over Eqestria made towns under their owner's town's. At first they we're made to reststops but now pet's who's owner's we're busy or abandoned pet's lived there. Their was houses, market places, inns and lot's more.

"Thisss placesss isss certainly busssy." Saphy said as she watched pet's of all species move about,

"This is nothing you should see the midnight rush." Babe said. Saphy smiled meanwhile in the crowd the rest of the pet's we're ready to put their plan into action. As Babe and Saphy made their way to one of Collerlot's cafe's. There we're tables outside of the establishment. And the two wasted no time to sit on one of the table's as the other animals we're doing. A fox waiter came over and took their orders and left as quickly as it came.

"How are you feeling?" Babe said and Saphy smiled again,

"Better. I guessss I jussst needed to clear my head." She said.

"Well good for that or else I might've gotten the vet to defang you." Babe said jokingly,

"Oh really? I didn't think you had the moxy to do ssssomething like that." Saphy replied back causing her and Babe to laugh. Finally their deserts came over, Saphy had an ice cream sundae with extra rat. While Babe had candy hay and grass. Babe took a mouthful and started chewing it. Saphy ate all the rats in one bite and started eating the ice cream that went with it. While the two we're feasting Crackers flew under the table.

Unfortunately Crackers's timing was just a little off. He flew up casing Babe's part of the table to rise just as he swallowed his mouthful of candy grass and hay. Babe ended up crashing into Saphy as their food flew up into the air with the snakes quick thinking. Babe's desert landed on Saphy's head almost appearing to be a wig while Saphy's sunday landed on Babe's butt. The sheep in question felt the frigid ice cream and screamed out,

"C-C-Cold!" As he was now on top of Saphy who was trying to figure out what had happened. Cream Cake, Mrs. Oinkers, and Poppy smacked their foreheads. And Crackers smacked his own for getting himself over excited, all the pet's we're now laughing. Babe's face was red as he tried to shut the world out. While Saphy felt anger bubble inside of her until she said:

"All of you ssstop your gigglesss or elssse I'll make sssure you'll all be ssskined alive!" Everyone paled ans went silent, including their friend's, "Come on let's go." Saphy said quietly as she slithered from under the paralyzed sheep and shook the food off her head. Babe got up and quickly followed after her as everyfurry stared still in shock. Saphy and Babe we're in Crepe and Binkey's room still slightly humiliated. Babe was still shaking as he ran out the door not even daring to look back. Saphy on the other had was hissing clearly irritated. She took a deep breath and sighed as she slithered to her terrarium and turned the heat rock on. Saphy closed her eye's as she felt blushed redden across her face as she thought: 'Why do all the bad thing's happen to me and Babe?'

Meanwhile Mrs. Oinkers, Cream Cake, and Poppy had just got back from Collerlot. And as you could guess all of them we're in bad moods.

"Thanks alot Crackers you did nothing useful as usual!" Poppy said,

"Don't go blaming this on me! You guy's know I need a perfectly drawn out plan before jumping the shark!" Crackers said.

"Well I am blaming this on you! You should've waited!" The piping made pomeranian argued,

"How was I-" Crackers said before Cream Cake and Mrs. Oinkers cut them off.

"Stop!" They both shouted,

"Going at each others throats isn't going to fix this. We'll meet back her I'm two day's with our own solution idea's. Got it?" Mrs. Oinkers said and everyone nodded as they all split up running (or flying) back to their homes.
