A Camping We Will Go
Let's Go Swimming
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWith the tent up, phase one of their camping trip was complete. Next was phase two, finding something fun to do.
"Okay, what should we do next?", Scootaloo asked.
"There's plenty of trees, why don't we climb one of them", Apple Bloom replied.
"I don't know, it sounds kind of dangerous", Sweetie Belle said. Suddenly, the crusaders hear a sound.
"Do you all hear that?", Scootaloo asked.
"I sure do, let's follow it and find out what it is", Sweetie Belle answered. After a few minutes of following the sound, they arrived at a river.
"Wow, this river is amazing. Let's go swimming", Apple Bloom excitedly said.
"Good idea, time to change into our swimsuits", Scootaloo replied.
"Um, did anyone even bring a swimsuit?", Sweetie Belle asked.
"I didn't"
"Me neither"
"I didn't bring one either, I guess we can't go swimming then", Sweetie Belle said. As they walked off, Scootaloo got an idea.
"Hold on, who says we even need swimsuits?"
"We can't go swimming in our clothes, we didn't bring any more", Sweetie Belle said.
"That's not what I mean, Sweetie Belle", Scootaloo replied.
"If we aren't swimming in swimsuits or in our clothes, what are going to wear?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"Nothing".
"Nothing, as in, being completely naked?"
"Exactly".
"We can't do that", Sweetie Belle said. "Do you have any idea how embarrassing that would be?"
"I agree" Apple Bloom replied.
"Come on girls", Scootaloo said, "There's no one around, so nobody will see us".
"Well, I guess you have a point", Apple Bloom replied, "Okay, lets do it".
"Okay, I guess it does sound like fun", Sweetie Belle said. Scootaloo then pulled off her clothes, hung them in a nearby tree, and jumped into the river. Apple Bloom was a bit more hesitant, but eventually made it into the water. Finally, Sweetie Belle walked up to the edge of the river, still in her underwear.
"Sweetie Belle, why are you in your underwear"?, Scootaloo asked, "Apple Bloom and I are both naked, just take them off and jump in".
"I'd just prefer to leave them on", Sweetie Belle replied. Apple Bloom then got out of the river and walked up to Sweetie Belle.
"If you swim in your underwear, what will you wear under your clothes when you get dressed again?", Apple Bloom asked. As Sweetie Belle pondered this, Scootaloo snuck up behind her and stole her underwear. Sweetie Belle saw that she was naked and grabbed a leaf off the ground to cover herself.
"Eek, Scootaloo, give me back my undies", Sweetie Belle demanded.
"If you want them back, you'll have to come get them", Scootaloo replied. Sweetie Belle then reluctantly went after Scootaloo completely naked, eventually getting her underwear back.
"See, isn't it fun swimming naked?", Scootaloo asked.
"Actually, it is kinda fun", Sweetie Belle answered. She then got out of the water and hung her underwear on the branch that everyone's clothes were on.
The Crusaders then spent several hours swimming naked in the river. After a while, Apple Bloom noticed some storm clouds in the sky and the wind picking up.
"Girls, it looks like it's about to start storming, we should head back to camp", Apple Bloom said.
"Don't worry, it's still perfect swimming weather", Scootaloo said. Immediately after saying that, the wind became stronger and it started raining.
"What was that you were saying about perfect swimming weather, Scootaloo?", Sweetie Belle asked.
"Fine, time to head back to camp", Scootaloo replied. They then got out of the water and went to get their clothes. But, before they could get them, a strong wind blew their clothes into the river.
"Don't worry, I'll go get our clothes", Scootaloo said.
"Scootaloo, don't you know how dangerous it is to go in the water during a storm?", Apple Bloom replied.
"But the river is carrying off our clothes and we didn't bring any more", Scootaloo said.
"We'll just have to go back to camp without them", Apple Bloom stated. The crusaders then headed back to camp. As soon as they got there, they saw that the rain had ruined the sandwiches they made and had drenched their sleeping bags. With no other options, they grabbed whatever food and water they could salvage and ran into the tent.
"Well, I suppose it could be worse", Apple Bloom said.
"How could it get worse? We have no sandwiches, no sleeping bags, and no clothes", Scootaloo replied.
"On the bright side, at least the marshmallows are okay", Sweetie Belle said. Sweetie Belle then opened the bag of marshmallows and handed them out one at a time. After a while, they noticed that it was dark outside.
"Well, we should probably get some sleep", Apple Bloom said.
"But the sleeping bags are wet from the rain, how will we stay warm?", Scootaloo asked.
"We'll have to huddle together for warmth", Apple Bloom replied.
"But we're all naked, won't that be a little weird?", Scootaloo asked.
"We'll have to do it, we don't have any other options", Apple Bloom stated. Reluctantly, they huddled together to stay warm.
"This feels weird", Scootaloo said.
"Well, I'll take a little weirdness over freezing to death", Apple Bloom replied.
