Episode 3: Not Very Welcomed

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

A day passed since the museaum incident. Jewel was peacfully sleeping in guest bedroom. The sun's rays hit her in her face, making her wake up. She yawned and sat up in bed. From there, she saw a breakfast plate with a note on it. It read:

Jewel

Lighting and I went out on patrol. We'll be back around noon. We made you breakfast, hope you like it.

Starla

Jewel wasted no time eating away at the breakfast plate. Within about ten minutes, she completely devoured it. "Man, that was good." She stated.
A few minutes later, she heard alot of screaming and yelling near the house.

"Whats that?"

Jewel stood up, changed into her clothes and went to the front door and opened it. She was greeted by a mob of angry ponies with pitch forks and torches.

"Umm. H-Hello" she greeted nervously. The ponies did not look very friendly.

"So you're the one who brought that creature to life and nearly killed us." One pony said.

"I-It was an accident!" Jewel replied, "I didn't mean to!"

"Yea right. You brought that thing to life on purpose, which is why you need to leave this town. NOW!" The leader of the mob said. The mob began to advance towrds Jewel. She gulped nervously and quickly closed the door, leaning against it. She quickly locked it. The mob all pushed hard against the door, forcing it to open. Jewel, knowing she was outnumbered and out matched, ran away from the door.

At the same time, the mob came bursting through the door and chased her. Jewel ran around the living room, with the mob hot on her tail. She turned towards the broken door and into the streets of New Ponyville.


Meanwhile, Lightning, Starla and their friends were having a lunch break at New Sugarcube Corner.

"So, how's Jewel?" Buddy asked.

"Oh, Jewel's just fine." Lightning replied.

"I still don't feel right leaving her all alone." Starla said with worry.

"She'll be fine Starla. I mean, how much could Jewel get in too?" Dyno asked. No sooner did he asked that, Jewel ran passed the shop screaming "Help" and an angry mob still chasing her.

"You had to ask." Myte added.

"Come on!" Lighting said.

The gang all rushed out of New Sugarcube Corner to save Jewel.


Meanwhile, Jewel got cornered by the angry mob in an alleyway.

"Can't we just talk about this please?" Jewel asked desperstely.

"No more talking! You are a threat and you need to be taken cared of." The leader said. The mob agreed unanimously. They began to advance towards Jewel with their pitch forks aimed at her and torches raised high. Jewel covered her head with her arms, bracing for a beating, and boy, did she get one.

The mob all ganged up on Jewel, kicking, punching and stomping on her. Some even burned her with their torches and poked her with their pitch forks. After a about ten minutes, they quickly dispursted, leaving Jewel bruised, battered and weak.

Lightning and the gang arrived in the alleyway and gasped. "Jewel!, Are you okay?" Starla asked. Jewel weakly lifted her head and looked at Starla.

"Ugh..no..*cough cough*...that mob really busted me up. Ugh..*cough cough*" Jewel replied weakly.

"Quick, let's get her to the hospital." Lighting ordered.

The gang rushed Jewel to the hospital. Dr. Penny diagnosied her with three bruised ribs, abroken arm and leg and a brusied shoulder.

Soon, Jewel was awake, in a hospital with her arm and leg in a cast, lifted up by a sling and she had bandages around her torso and shoulder.

Lightning and the others came in to check on her.

"Hey Jewel, how are you feeling?" Starla asked.

"Sore" Jewel replied. Starla smiled sadly and walked over to Jewel's bedside and gently stroked her mane.

"Jewel, why was that mob chasing you?" Lightning asked.

"They said...that I was...a threat becasue...lf what happened..yesterday...I tried to..reason..with them but it didn't...work so they chased me. They said...that I should...leave." Jewel replied.

Lightning and the others were shocked and outraged. How dare ponies beat up their friend and try to drive Jewel out of town. Then a rock came flying through the window, shattering the glass.

"'Ay Carumba!" Cried Dyno

"What was that?" Myte added.

Lighting picked up the rock and read it out loud.

Dear Jewel,

Last warning! Get lost or else.

Everybody was horrifed.

"Oooh, what am I gonna do?" Jewel asked.

"Don't worry Jewel well do everything we can do
To make sure they don't get you." Rhymey promised.

Jewel felt a little safer.


Days went by and Jewel was fully healed. However, the harassment from ponies continued. One day she was hit in the face with a pie. Then she found the words 'leave' and 'monster' on Lighting and Starla's house. Ponies were always giving Jewel deadly looks as she walked through town. No matter what her friends tried to do to stop the harrassment, it just kept getting worse.

On the fourth day, Jewel went to New Sugarcube Corner and saw Mr. and Ms. Cake along with Pumpkin and Pound Cake, their twin foals. They were some of the few ponies who still treated Jewel nicely.

"Why hello Jewel." Ms. Cake greeted.

Jewel looked up with a sad smile.

"Hi Ms. Cake." She greeted back.

The Cakes could sense her sadness.

"Not getting any better huh?" Mr. Cake asked. Jewel shook her head.

"Oh Jewel" Ms. Cake said.

Jewel went to sit by herself, luckily the shop was empty. Jewel just sat there, thinking of all the things people said about her and all the trouble she caused for her friends. Whenever her friends tried to defend her, they got yelled and threatened. Jewel didn't want her hurt new friends to get hurt.

There was only one thing she could do.

She ordered about twenty sweets from the shop and while Lighting and Starla were back out on patrol she wrote them a note and left the house. She walked to the enterence to the New Everfree Forest and walked inside, leaving New Ponyville....forever.


Lightining and Starla entered their house at noon.

"Jewel, we're home!" Lightning called.

No response.

"Jewel!" Starla called.

No response.

Lightning saw a note on the table and read it:

Dear Lightning and Starla,

I apperciate all the things you and the gang have done to try and help me, but it decided to leave New Ponyville. I don't want you guys getting hurt becasue of me. I love you guys with all my heart. Goodbye.

Jewel

"Oh no!" Starla exclaimed.

"Starla, round up the gang and find Jewel. While I put a stop to this once and for all." Lightning said.

Starla nodded and ran off. Lightning took out a piece of poster and began to quote. There we're only two people who could help end this harassment. Meanwhile, Starla gathered up the gang and they followed Jewel's footprints to the New Everfree Forest.

"Why would Jewel go in here?" Buddy asked.

"To isolate herself." Starla replied.

The gang entered the forest and soon enough they heard crying. Following the sound, they found Jewel, sitting under a tree crying her eyes out.

"Jewel!" Everybody called.

Jewel looked up and saw her friends. They all surrounded

"Jewel we were so worried about you. I was so worried about you. Why did you runaway?" Starla asked.

"*Sniffle* I didnt want you guys to get hurt, *Sniffle* becasue of my problems." Jewel replied.

"Jewel, we're your friends. We'll always be here for you. No matter if we get hurt. We'll help you just please come home." Starla reassured. Jewel thought for a moment.

"Okay. I'll come home. But what the harassment?" Jewel asked.

"Lighting's got that covered." Starla added.

The gang returned with Jewel to New Ponyville. From there, they saw their majesties talking to all the citizens of New Ponyville. They're majesties told everybody to look pass the museum incident and treat Jewel like everybody else. After that, the meeting was over. Lightning and their majesties saw Jewel with Starla and the others.

"Jewel, are you okay?" Lightning asked.

"Yea I'm okay. And I'm staying in New Ponyville!" Jewel declared.

Everybody was happy to hear that. For the next three days, the harrassment had stopped completely. Jewel was feeling alot better now that it was over and her friends couldn't agree more.

In our next episode....Jewel starts her magic training with Lighting and she learns fast. But when Sombra and Chrysalis arrive on the scene and capture her friends, Jewel will have to put her magic training to the test.
