Looking for Love (Part 2): Turmoilby fluttershy<3_66ChaptersBeginningsFirst is the HardestDoubtsRejection MemoriesChildNamesHealingBeginningsThis story is a sequel to LeMu's Discovery which needs to be read before this story. Also I have done a reading of it here. Turmoil Chapter 1 Rarity awoke with the sun beaming in through the windows and illuminating the blue Pegasus feather lying on the table. She sighed and thought of Rainbowdash. 'Oh Rainbow you're such an amazing mare,' she thought to herself, 'But this all so new.....' She let the thought just teeter at the back of her mind as she pulled herself out of bed and trotted into the bathroom and began to get ready for the day. After washing up she walked down stairs and was greeted by Opalescence. "Opal how are you doing today?" She asked Opal as per normal didn't look up from the paw she was currently licking. "Oh, I'm just so confused with everything I do love Rainbow and I know I'll never leave her but I don't know if I'll ever be able to tell anypony how I really feel about her......" Rainbow Dash's eyes fluttered open an she looked out of the window of her bedroom to where Rarity's house was and she let out a sigh of content. "I can't wait to see Rare, last night was so awesome." She said as walked downstairs and got out Celestia O's for breakfast. She poured out her cereal and began to eat. She looked around at her house and she suddenly thought "Oh crud I'll have to move out of here if I ever move in with Rarity, oh well she's more than worth it." She left the House and began to walk to Rarity's thinking about how much fun it was going to be especially when she was able to tell her friends about her new Marefriend. Rarity was just finishing her breakfast as she heard a knock on her door, and she began to smile because she already knew who it was and she was not to be disappointed. She opened the door and she was greeted by Rainbow Dash's smiling face but the part she couldn't stop staring at was those eyes. Oh how she loved her eyes the dark, deep, safe pools of magenta that they were. "Hi Rarity!" exclaimed rainbow as she leaned in for a kiss. "Good morning Dashie!" said Rarity as she leaned in too, more than happy to return the offer. It wasn't a very long kiss more of a peck but it still showed their new-found love clearly. Rainbow felt ecstatic after they broke apart thinking: 'I'm so happy that she feels this way about me it's my dream come true.' Rarity on the other hand thought: 'She's so perfect I really do love her I just don't know what every pony will think...' "Soooo...ummm.....who should we tell first?" Rainbow asked. "Wait what do you mean tell....?" Rarity asked with a hint of panic in her voice. "About us silly." said Rainbow not understanding Rarity's fears. "Why would we tell anyone?" "Why wouldn't we?" she asked finally understanding something was wrong. "Well our friends probably won't like us anymore not to mention to our family's plus...." said Rarity But she was cut off by Rainbow saying: "What do you mean they won't like us any more!?! They're our closest set of friends and they always have cared about us this won't change a thing!" "How could this not change things? You know how most ponies feel about this kind of realationship nowadays." "It might change things but it doesn't mean that they won't accept us for our feelings, they're our friends and they'll accept us no matter what you know that." "No I don't and neither do you." "Maybe they're fillyfoolers too." "Rainbow!!!" Shouted Rarity feeling awkward since she used that term. "What that's what we are isn't it?" "Well yes but I always thought that was a condescending thing to say to ponies like us." "I see it as something to be proud of that makes us different." Rainbow said in her confident voice. "Ohh....." Rarity let herself relax and began to think that maybe Rainbow was right but how could she ever tell her friends and be able to look them in the eyes again. Seeing how upset Rarity looked she walked up to her and pulled her into a tight embrace and just held her as she began to cry. "Rainbow I-I'm just so lost I do love you b-but I don't want the world to judge me because of the way I feel about you." Rarity said between sobs. "It's just so new and different to me." "Rarity.... if you don't want to tell them you don't have to, it's your choice whatever makes you happiest." said Rainbow with love in her voice. Rarity stood there and thought for some time as Rainbow waited patiently for her decision. "I-I think we should tell them.." said Rarity in a voice that would rival Fluttershy's. "Really?! Oh yeah!!" yelled Rainbowdash. "Yes really..." Rarity said in that same squeak causing Rainbow to realize how scared she really was. "Don't worry Rarity I'll be there right beside you the whole time." at this Rarity perked up slightly but still felt scared. "Oh darling I know that I'm just so scared about what everypony will say about us." "Well no matter what they say we have each other." said Rainbow compassionately. That was the last thing Rarity needed to hear because after Rainbow said it she leaned and kissed her and she held the embrace for a long time then slowly pulling away Rarity said: "I love you Dashie." "Love you too Rar'." replied Rainbow "Well now that we know we're going to tell them how should we go about it?" asked Rarity know much less afraid than she had been earlier. "I think we should tell them all separately so that way it's not super awkward with all of them there at once ya know?" "That's just what I was thinking." thought Rarity then she said "Oh that sounds like a wonderful idea darling." "Well it's settled then....Who should we tell first family or friends?" "Most definitely friends." "Well," Rainbow asked, "Which of them should be first?" "Hmmmm" went Rarity ""Hmmmm" What?" "I think we should tell twilight first." "Why her?" "She's the least likely pony I can think of that would gossip." "Oh, well first stop Twilight's!" exclaimed as she raced off through Ponyville towards Twilight's house. "This is going to put years on my coat after today I am most definitely going to need a spa day soon." sighed Rarity as she trotted of in the direction that Rainbow had flown. First is the HardestTurmoil Chapter 2 Rainbow Dash was flying loops over Rarity as she approached Twilight's tree and with each step she felt more and more like it was a bad idea to be telling anypony about her relationship with Rainbow. "Rainbow dear could you come down here?" asked Rarity some fear in voice causing it to shake. "Sure no prob' Rar." Replied Rainbow landing elegantly next to Rarity. "I'm not so sure I can do this Dashie I thought I could but now we're so close and I'm just so scared..." "It's still your choice hon." said Rainbow looking deflated. For Rarity just hearing Rainbow call her by a pet name gave her a small burst of courage just enough for her to choke out, "Okay well I said I would and I'm a mare of my word let's go..." her voice trailed off as she finally accepted that she had to go through with it if not for her than for Rainbow. So Rarity with a knot in her throat and Rainbow with butterflies in her stomach they walked through to door of Twilight's house. "Hey Rainbow, Hey Rarity how's it going?" asked Twilight Rarity still being extremely scared and just worried about how many ways this could go wrong said nothing so Rainbow came to her rescue saying "Oh not much we just stopped by to say hello." "The both of you?" she asked just curious "Yes! Why is that weird just two friends saying hi to another friend?" exclaimed Rarity drawing a look from Twilight "What... no of course not relax Rarity no need to be so tense, hold on I'll get us all some tea and snacks." Twilight turned and trotted into the kitchen and the two mares stared at the door until they were certain she was gone. "Well that was smooth wasn't it." said Rainbow grinning at Rarity as she walked over to a cushion on the floor. "I'm sorry darling I'm just nervous." "Well when she comes back are you going to tell her or am I?" "I-I think I will actually maybe it'll help me fell better about telling the others." "Are you sure Rar'?" "Yes" she said as she nuzzled Rainbow affectionately. A few seconds after they pulled apart Twilight walked back in a tray held by a purple haze in tow. "Well here we are girls." she said with a smile. "That looks great Dear." said Rarity with a forced smile. "So what's the real reason you decided to stop in here?" asked twilight "Well ummm....I....well....we....I mean Rainbow Dash and I.....well..." Rarity couldn't get herself to say but she looked over at Rainbow who was giving her a warm reassuring smile and said, "Well to put it bluntly me and Dashie are dating." Twilight was taken back and couldn't think of anything to say. She stood and walked over to the window and just stared out it leaving Rarity and Rainbow worried. 'Oh no.' thought Rarity 'I was Right all along they won't like us anymore.' she started to panic and was on the verge of a "worst possible thing" moment when Twilight suddenly turned and said. "Well that definitely not what I had expected from this visit....but I want you both to know that I support you both and that this won't change anything between us even though this is quite....different." Twilight finished the awkward sentence that relieved some of the stillness of the room and then Rarity spoke "Really? Oh wow that is such a relief... I was so worried that you would hate us after we told you." as she finished she felt tears form in her eyes . "Hey Rar' what's wrong?" Rainbow asked noticing her loves tears "Oh nothing I'm just so happy!" she replied as she pulled a hoof across her face to wipe them away as she did Rainbow walked over to her and hugged her smiling as she did so. Rainbow whispered into Rarity's ear, "I love you" Rarity rather then reply with words kissed Rainbow, and they left Twilight standing there awkwardly as they held the kiss for some time. When they broke apart they turned to Twilight and apologized for their "behavior". After some time, tea and, talking they left knowing that their secret was safe as long as they needed it to be and they left to go and tell their next friend , Applejack. They left Twilight's house smiling and walking close together down the road towards Sweet Apple Acres. they took their time savoring the beautiful scenery with each other and just enjoying each other in general. After about a fifteen minute walk they arrived at the earth pony's farm and were greeted by Apple Bloom "Howdy ya'll whats gotcha ya up here?" "We would like to see your older sister Apple Bloom is she here?" asked Rarity politely. "Uhh yea she's out buckin though." "Oh well we could come back another time." said Rarity "She'll be back soon she left lil' over an hour ago." "Then we'll wait." Rainbow said. "Alrighty then I'll tell her to go see you when she gets back" "Thanks Apple Bloom." "Yes thank you dear." "No problem." Rainbow and Rarity sat outside the barn chatting as they waited for Applejack to show up, and after about thirty minutes they could hear her trot up from behind the barn. "Well howdy ya two, what brings ya'll up to Sweet Apple Acres today?" "We have something to tell you that's kind of difficult for us well for me to say." Rarity said with a lot more confidence then she had when she had spoke to Twilight. "Actually Rar' I wanna tell her." Rainbow said "Oh alright then Dashie." "Tell me what now?" ask AppleJack "Well me and Rarity are together now." Rainbow said happily. "Oh....well umm I normally don't approve of....fillyfoolers." "Oh Rainbow I told you this would happen! I knew somepony was going to be upset with this!" tear again formed in Rarity's eyes and she started to sob. Rainbow on the other hand was shocked at AppleJack's response "What's so wrong with being a fillyfooler AppleJack?" she shouted, "Have they ever done anything to hurt you our your family? Not to mention we're your friends and we would do anything to help you no matter what I mean.....!" but she was cut off by AppleJack who said "Now wait jus a minute, I said normally I don't approve of fillyfoolers but I reckon that for you two I'd have to make an exception and maybe give em a chance now settle down ya hear?" Rarity who had been sobbing in the background was still nervous and said with her trademark pout, "Really you'd do that for me and rainbow?" "Why o'course I would your my friends ain't ya?" "Well yes..." "Then just relax because I won't let something like this come 'tween us okay Rarity?" "I guess that makes sense" Rainbow chose this time to apologize for her outburst, "Hey uh AppleJack sorry about my umm episode back there I just didn't want to see Rarity get hurt and I got defensive." "Oh don't worry sugar cube I can see why you did it I might've in yer position too." "Well thanks for you know being how accepting you are." "No problem... who else knows?" "Twilight." replied Rarity who had regained her composure. "No one else?" "Nope. In fact I think we should go tell Pinkie" this time it was Rainbow who spoke. "That is going to be a hoot but I'll let you two go I'm gonna go let this settle." said AppleJack as she turned and trotted into her family's home. "Well let's go find Pinkie, I don't think telling her is going to be easy just because she simply won't be able to contain herself." said Rarity "You know she's going to go crazy right?" "Oh yes she will....." DoubtsTurmoil Chapter 3 "OmigoshOhmigoshOhmigoshOhmigoshOhmigosh*squee*!!!" screamed Pinkie as she bounced around with her usual flamboyant style, "this is so awesome I definitely have to throw a party! How many ponies could come...how about all of ponyville or maybe it'll just be us what do you think?" The two mares just stood and waited for Pinkie to finish her rant because they were accustomed to her bubbly personality. She finally stopped after about 12 minutes of her insanity she finally started to calm down and Rarity said, "Well Pinkie that sounds great and all but ummm me and Rainbow just want to keep it to family and friends for now. So no parties will be necessary sorry dear." "Oh well it's still cool that you guys are dating I always saw how Rainbow looked at you Rarity." Rainbow started to blush and said "Stop it Pinkie I didn't like stare at her all the time did I?" "Actually......" Rarity was smiling as she left those two to argue as she walked into a different part of Sugarcube Corner and she was greeted by two young foals playing with some toys. "Well aren't you two just the cutest little things!" she exclaimed watching as one of them started nibbling on one of the toys it was playing with. She began to play with the foals for a little while during which Rainbow was still talking with Pinkie. "I did not get all starry eyed when I was around her!!" "Did to" "Ughhhh" Rainbow let out an angry sigh and stalked off to find Rarity. "Oh you two are just so sweet." Rarity said as she played with two young foals who enjoyed having someone new to play with. They were just playing with same toys they had been when Rarity walked in and she was enjoying herself but suddenly she had a thought. "Oh no......Dashie where are you dear?" Rainbow walked through the door and said, "Right hear hon' what's up?" "I was playing with these two when I thought about how much I wanted Children....." "What do you...oh well yeah I want kids too I mean we could adopt or something like that." "That wouldn't be the same it's not ours you know?" "What do you mean?" Rarity sighed and said, "Well if we were to adopt it's not like the child would actually be ours so it wouldn't look or be like us not to mention it probably wouldn't accept us as it's parents." "You don't know that." "Well even if I don't would you really want to put some young colt or filly through life having to mares for parents what would people say to her, not only that what would they DO to her or him. I don't know if I could do that to some poor child." "Just because they're adopted doesn't mean they're different or wrong they're still just a pony like you or me. Lots of ponies are adopted too." "Well what makes you think that it's so similar how could you know?" "Actually it's the same Rar'...I'm adopted, I've never told anyone but...I am my real parents abandoned me outside the hospital after I was born and I was there for a couple of weeks till my dad came and adopted me and it was never different than what it would've been with real parents I think we were closer than most parents children relationships." "I had no idea Rainbow.... I'm so sorry." "Don't be I love my father." she said with a pained expression "Oh...well just because it was like that for you doesn't mean it's the same." "It is though there's no difference plus we don't have to worry about it right now it's way to early to think about things like that." "You're right. Well I suppose we should go tell Fluttershy she won't be surprised though I talked to her after we kissed because she knows you best." "Ahh okay well let's go than." They walked out of the bakery going towards Fluttershy's cottage which was quite a ways away and instead of flying Rainbow walked close to Rarity down the road and they didn't say much and they just enjoyed what they had it took about fifteen minutes to reach the small cottage and they knocked lightly on the door and Fluttershy answered. "Oh hello you two so I'm guessing your..." she paused and started to blush, "well umm together." "Ya that's right we've already told everyone else." replied Rainbow "Oh well that's good I guess i'm happy for you two." This time Rarity answered, "Thank you Fluttershy it really means a lot to me plus thanks again for being there for me when I needed you." "Oh it's just what friends are for, well I have to go take care of the animals." "Alright bye Flutters." said Rainbow "Yes goodbye dear have a nice night." "Goodbye." said Fluttershy as she closed the door. Rarity and Rainbow walked back to her boutique because the day was gone and it was about ten at night when they arrived at Rarity's home and they walked in together and were met by Sweetie Belle. "Hey sis' where you been and why's Rainbow here?" Rarity blushed and she said, "Sweetie that's rude! She's a guest and she'll be staying her tonight right Rainbow?" Rainbow was taken back by the last statement and was tempted to refuse but she said, "Oh yea." "Oh well is it okay if I stay with Apple Bloom tonight?" "Of course you can dear." Rarity said with a smile and an excited Sweetie Belle ran through the door and was gone. Rarity suddenly turned and started kissing Rainbow just like they had at Twilight's party. 'Ooohh this is going to be a good night' thought Rarity as she started to push her tongue into Rainbow's mouth like Rainbow had done to her at Twilight's party which drew a sharp intake of breath from Rainbow. 'Ha,' she thought, 'I am good at this' then they pulled apart and Rainbow was left with a goofy smile on her face while Rarity looked smug "How was that Dashie?" she asked giggling "That was so awesome!(Dash's Awesome Face) Rarity laughed and said, "Hahahaha good that's what I was going for!" "Yea it was nice...." "What?" "Oh nothing I was just wondering if that's as far as it's going to go." "I'm not quite comfortable enough yet for that yet." "Well tell me when...." "Oh stop it Dashie...." "Why does it make you uncomfortable? How about self concious or maybe...." But she was cut off as the door to her store burst open and in walked..... "Oh no......" said Rarity There standing in all there glory was..... "Hello Rarity!" Rarity swallowed and began to shake 'Oh no this is not going to go well at all.....' Oh how I love my cliffhangers this ones for you monster cai. brohoof /) Rejection Rejection Turmoil Chapter 4 Rarity continued to shake as she said, "H-hello mother, father." "Hello dear!" Rarity's mother exclaimed (imagine a Canadian or Michigander accent like mine :P) "Come give daddy a hug." her father said (again same accent but more masculine) Rarity walked up to her dad trying to hide a guilty look and hugged him, "What are you doing here?" "Oh we just thought that stopping in for a visit was a good idea because we were passing through." "Ah well just go ahead and make yourselves at home, I'll show you to the guest room." During the entire exchange Rainbow just stood and watched Rarity and how scared she was. 'Oh no' she thought, 'She's really freaking out I don't know what to do...' just then Rarity's father spotted her. "Rarity you haven't introduced us to your friend yet." "What oh yes mother, father this is Rainbowdash she's a good friend of mine." Rarity shot a look over to Rainbow which said don't say anything about us. Rainbow got the message and said, "Yeah me and Rarity have been friends for awhile now and I was going to stay the night but now I think I'll just go home." Rarity's mother jumped up at this and said, "Oh no that just won't do we didn't mean to ruin any plans we can just go find a hotel for the night." "Oh I couldn't do that to you guys it would be so rude of me." "No it's rude of to barge in and ruin plans we'll just go and find a hotel for the night." said Rarity's father as he picked up the luggage he had dropped on the floor and before they could protest anymore they were gone. "Well that was almost too awkward." said Rainbow but when she didn't get an answer she looked over at her and saw that she was just staring off after her parents Rainbow walked up to her and put a hoof around her neck. "What's wrong Rar'?" Rarity snapped out of the trance she was in and said in a quiet voice, "My parents hate fillyfoolers and coltcuddlers." "What do you mean?" "Why did you think I was so afraid to tell anypony my parents hate people like us it was how I was raised but I never listened to them always thought it was so dumb of them so does Sweetie Belle but my parents are very intolerant." "So are you saying that if you told your parents that they would hate you?" "Yes! That's exactly what I'm saying I thought everypony was like them too that's why I was so worried." "I guess that explains that but what are we going to do then?" "Oh I don't know...Oh of all the worst possible things that could have happened THIS IS THE WORST POSSIBLE THING!!! she used her infamous "Summon chair" spell and fell into it as she began to sob. Rainbow rolled her eyes and thought, 'What a drama queen' *sigh* she walked up Rarity and held her in a tight hug and cooed, "Don't worry hon' it's going to be okay they aren't going to find out how could they we only told our friends and it's not like it's all over town or anything." Rarity looked up tears still in her eyes and said, "Are you sure? I don't want to know what my parents might do or think." Rainbow smiled comfortingly saying, "Of course I'm sure." these of course turned out to be famous last words so to speak as Rarity's parents burst back into the house looking angry. "Rarity! Where are you?" shouted her father just before he saw the two mares holding each other on the chair. They quickly broke apart and stared at her parents fear in their eyes. "Rarity what is this?" Shouted her father angrily "I...it...well umm" she struggled to find the right words so Rainbow took the initiative and said, "Me and your daughter are dating and we are happy the way we are." her voice carried authority and was firm but it didn't do much to dispel the feelings in the room and Rarity's mother spoke up and shouted "We knew what was going on because of your pink friend we just had to make sure it was true," she turned to Rarity still fuming and said, "What is wrong with you! How could yo do something like this to us I thought we raised you better than that." Rarity's father jumped into the conversation, "Not only that but what about your sister does she know? Because if she doesn't she coming with us and you won't see her again for a long time." Rarity was completely shocked and couldn't find the words she wanted to say so again Rainbow spoke up, "What is wrong with her!? What's wrong with you she's your daughter it shouldn't matter who or what she likes you should still love her no matter what." Rarity's parents turned from their crying daughter and her father began to yell at Rainbow, "This is your fault if it hadn't been for you she wouldn't be like this what have you done to her she was perfect and then you came along and ruined it all." "She chose to be with me I never forced her to do anything and I never would." "That's a lie she'd never date a mare especially one like you!" her mother screamed "A mare like me? What somepony who cares about her and her feelings? How stupid and ignorant are you?" Rarity turned and faced her parents, "What is wrong with you two? Am I not aloud to be happy to live MY life as I choose? And for your information I was born this way it's not a choice and I do love Rainbow and I would date a mare like her she's perfect you two are just ignorant and mean just.....leave oh and Sweetie Belle supports mares like Rainbow and I so just leave her here because she's not going with people like YOU!" she finished her speech and stalked out of the room fuming with tears streaming down her face. Rainbow stood there for a second before throwing one last look after Rarity's parents and she followed her leaving Rarity's parents alone. "Just leave her she's not worth it." "What about Sweetie?" "I don't even know where she is let's just get to Manehatten." They left soon after still angry at their daughter. Rainbow walked into Rarity's room a look of concern on her face. "Hey Rar'..." she said tentatively. Instead of a reply Rarity just buried her face further into her pillow. Instead of trying to talk to her Rainbow just walked up to her laid in the bed snuggled up next to her and buried her muzzle in her neck and they just laid like that till they both drifted off to sleep. A/N That Michigander accent I was talking about sounds like this. We pronounce really hard R's and we don't really pronounce our T's we say 90 like ninedy instead of ninety lol also we don't say y'all we say you guys. Also I'm scraping trying to get an update schedule because #1 I hate organization and order I love chaos (not saying I like discord) and #2 It's kind of annoying writing under a schedule so I'm giving up on that but I will post at least one chapter a week. MemoriesTurmoil Chapter 6 Several years after Rarity and Rainbow got together. Rainbow woke up stretched and yawned, then she walked out of her bedroom towards the kitchen. She listened to the sound of somepony preparing some type of breakfast. She walked through the door and saw Sweetie Belle rushing around cooking up pancakes. Rainbow smiled at how mature the young mare was now. Her thoughts drifted off to when she got her cutie mark. They were all at the school play watching as the Cutie Mark Crusaders each played their own role Sweetie Belle was more nervous than her friends because she had to sing a solo piece and she hadn't sung in public before. When it was finally time for her to go she swallowed the lump in her throat and stood at the center of the stage and she sang and it was beautiful. Ponies couldn't believe what they were hearing such sweet sound coming from such a young filly! They all watched mouths agape as her flank began to glow and on it appeared a microphone surrounded by a pink heart.... Rainbow shook her head at the end of the thought and said, "Hey Sweetie how goes the cooking?" She turned around quickly and relaxed when she saw who it was, "Oh it's fine I wanted to wake up early today and surprise you two with it being your anniversary and all." "That's sweet of you...Sweetie no pun intended." Sweetie laughed and said, "Oh it's fine happens more than you'd think." "Alright well let your sister sleep I was planning on going into town and getting her something." "What were you going to get?" "I dunno I was going to go window shopping." "Oh, well go have fun then I'll finish this up." "Thanks Sweetie." Rarity awoke to the sweet scent of pancakes tickling her nose and a small present on her chest. The tag attached to it said "To Rarity love Rainbow" Rarity groaned because she thought she had convinced Rainbow that presents weren't necessary but she went and bought one anyways and now she felt guilty because she had none to give. "Oh well." she breathed out with a heavy sigh. She stood up and walked downstairs into the dining room where she found "Happy Anniversary" balloons suspended above the table held down by a decorative weight. She smiled when she saw Rainbow sitting at the table talking with Sweetie. "Hello girls. How are you doing today?" They both turned their heads and said in unison, "Fine you?" they looked at each other and giggled after they said it. "Oh I'm great just wondering what this is." she replied as she held up her gift. "That's your present silly." "I thought we agreed this wasn't going to happen." "So?" "Your Impossible Rainbow." "Oh I know" "I love it though." she laughed as she sat down she opened the present and gasped at what was inside. "Do you like it?" asked Rainbow asked worry in her voice. "Oh it's beautiful" she breathed as she pulled out a stunning silver horn ring made of silver and encrusted with gems that matched her eyes and cutie mark's colors, the two slightly different shades of blue complementing each other stunningly. "I'm glad you like Rar'." "Now I feel bad because I didn't get you a present." "Don't sweat it, it doesn't matter to me." "Are you sure?" "Of course I am." "Alright then dear, well I am famished who'd like to dig into those splendind looking pancakes?" They began to eat and Rainbow looked across the table to Rarity and Sweetie something in Sweeties expression worried her and she had a guess as to what it was. "Sweetie Belle what's wrong?" "What oh... nothing I'm fine." "You don't sound like it." Rarity understood what was happening now and turned to Sweetie. "Sweetie it's okay just talk to us we know what's wrong." "I miss them Rarity." "I do too Sweetie Belle...." her voice drifted of as she thought of that night several years back. "I don't even know where she is let's just get to Manehatten." said Rarity's father as they stormed out of her house. They began the short walk to the train station complaining about their daughter's choice the whole way there. When they got to the train station they got tickets for a late night train to Manehatten they boarded the train a little after midnight and then they were on their way about halfway to their destination the engineer for the train fell asleep and the train rounded a curve going way to fast, it flipped and killed most passengers on impact the few who weren't killed were severely injured and most of those poor ponies died from a combination of shock and blood loss among the ones who were killed instantly were Rarity's parents. She received the news two days after the accident happened and she was nearly inconsolable for weeks remembering the last things they had ever said to each other. It took time and paitence but Rarity finally came to forgive herself and her parents for the last night they spent together and life went on..... Rarity's eyes teared up as she thought of the memory and she hugged Sweetie Belle saying, "I know that you miss them dear but there'e nothing we can do about it except keep on living for them so cheer up you've got your whole life ahead of you." "You're right sis I'm going over to Scootaloo's I need to see her." "Take all the time you need dear I understand." she said smiling warmly. "Thanks sis I might just stay the night." Rarity nodded and watched her sister leave to go visit her own fillyfriend. No one was surprised when she came out it was rather obvious they way they were always together. She sighed and turned to Rainbow. "You've got that look in your eye Rarity what are you thinking about?' "I-I think I want a baby...." ChildTurmoil Chapter 7 Rarity and Rainbow were on the train to Canterlot talking excitedly to each other. "What kind of foal do you want?" as Rainbow who had been waiting for this trip for weeks. She was trotting here and there as she could barely contain herself. "A nice quiet calm one, and she most definitely has to be a she." she replied appearing to be deep in thought. "I want her, because I agree with you on that, to be strong and energetic ya know a small me, daring, adventurous, brave." "That is not at all what I have in mind, I want a smart level headed daughter who's not going to go and get herself into trouble at every turn." she said with a devious smile playing at the corner of her lips as she turned on Rainbow. "Hey that's not fair," she pouted, "I don't into trouble that often....at least not anymore." she finished the sentence as she tried to fight off the smile that she could feel coming but it was to no avail. "It is sooo fair." she advanced on Rainbow still shining that devious smile as well as a playful look in her eye. Rainbow decided to play along and she backed into the corner of their train compartment Rarity continued her advance as she dropped into a predatory stance and slowly began her approach. When she was in range she pounced on Rainbow and began to kiss her deeply then she had a thought and she slowly brought her hoof up so Rainbow couldn't see it and she scratched the base of her left ear at the back and she immediately felt Rainbow melt in her arms. 'Heh heh works eveytime' she thought as she heard Rainbow let out a quiet moan. She walked over to the window and saw that they were almost at the station. (what did you think I'd make them do it on the train jeeezzzz) "Rainbow pull yourself together we're here." she said as she laughed at Rainbow who was splayed out on the floor where she had left her. "That. Definitely. Was. Not. Fair." she heaved as she pulled herself together and of the floor. "And why pray tell is that?" "Because I can't do it that to you." "Who ever said that darling?" she said with a wink as she left the train. At that Rainbow got excited and followed her off the train where she was greeted rather unexpectedly by Celestia. "Oh, hello princess." she said with a bow "There's no need for that my little pony." she said gently. "I'm sorry princess." "Just Celestia will do Rainbowdash" "Ok pri-Celestia." she said rather awkwardly "So why are you here to meet us Celestia?" asked Rarity. "Twilight told of your plans to adopt and I thought that I would join you two as you looked." "That's very sweet of you." "There's also something I'd like to ask of you." "What is it?" asked Rarity. "Well you know about the ongoing struggle for ponies like you two correct?" "You mean the gay marriage and equal rights thing?" "Yes" "What do you want us to do?" asked Rainbow who was deep in thought about what Celestia could want from them. "Well I am a large supporter of the movement myself and I wanted to know if you two would speak for us, I'm hoping that seeing the ponies that have saved their lives on several occasions will help some ponies to realize how for lack of a better word "stupid" they are being." Rainbow looked over to Rarity smiling and Rarity knew how exciting that would be for Rainbow seeing as she was one of the movements biggest supporters. "Well," Rarity said, "I'd be happy to help and I know Rainbow would be too." "Wonderful girls well here's the orphanage I have some duties I need to attend to unfortunately good day to you two." "Goodbye Celestia" "See ya Celestia." Celestia walked away followed by her guards and Rarity and Rainbow turned and looked at the orphanage then they walked in. Several hours and no luck later they walked out of the orphanage looking crestfallen. "I never thought finding a nice little foal would be so difficult." sighed Rarity as she walked with Rainbow to the hotel they were going to staying in for the night. "You're telling me well there's always other orphanages." "I suppose you're right." "Ya and we'll the perfect eventually let's not give up" "True....Wait do you hear that?" asked Rarity as they stopped walking to listen and there it was again it sounded like a young foal crying out. "Yeah I do it sounds like a foal where is it?" "It's coming from over there." she said as she approached an alleyway behind the orphanage, and there on the ground in a cardboard box was a young foal it was a unicorn with a dark blue coat and slightly lighter blue hair with black streaks and it was just old enough to speak but it wasn't speaking equestrian it spoke Germane. "Mutti...Mutti. wo bist du?" it cried between sobs. "Oh...it's germane hold on I speak a little... Kind wo ist dein mutti (Child where is your mother)?" she asked kindly. "I-Ich weiß nicht(I-I don't know.)" "Wie lange hast du hier gewesen(How long have you been here)?" "I-Ich weiß nicht" "Hmmm I think this child has been abandoned sadly..." her voice trailed off as she looked into the giant saucers that were the foals eyes and she understood what this young filly had been through and her heart melted as she stared at the poor thing. "Rainbow we can't leave her here...I think she might be the one for us just look at her she's adorable we must take her." Rainbow looked down at the foal as well and when she looked into those eyes she felt the same way Rarity had and she agreed so they took her into the orphanage and got everything sorted out and they took her to the hotel with them and they stayed up with her all night trying to coax her into sleep but it was distraught at it's abandonment so they simply stayed up with her and played with her until she smiled and started laughing and the next day it was back on the train to Ponyville and her new home. A/N I do actually speak some German so you will actually get to hear how those parts are supposed to be said...roughly so. NamesTurmoil Chapter 8 Rarity and Rainbow arrived in Ponyville with their new daughter, and were welcomed by their friends and of course a party hosted by Pinkie. "Hello girls!" exclaimed Twilight who was in the front of the pack heading towards the train station. "Oh hello Twilight, girls." suddenly Pinkie Pie burst out of the crowd bouncing around as bubbly as ever shouting, "Ohhhh where is he...or she...it?" she asked with a questioning face. "Well everypony this is our daughter Silverheart." said Rarity with an awkward smile as she stepped to the side to reveal the young filly who was hiding behind her. She was smaller than sweetie bell with a light gray coat and a black and gray streaked mane. She squealed when Twilight smiled and bent down to say hello. "She's a little shy I guess Twilight sorry about that, If it's okay with everypony we've all had a long trip and we'd be glad if we just go home and get some alone time with our new daughter." "Oh I don't mind," said Twilight. Pinkie on the other hand visibly deflated but agreed and after a few more greetings they were on their way home. They arrived after about ten minutes of walking and walked into their home. "Well here we are Silverheart you new home." on the train ride home they had discovered that she did in fact not only speak germane but equaine as well. The little filly rather than say anything just began running around happily getting accustomed to the house. Rarity and Rainbow looked at each other and smiled lovingly and walked into the kitchen to get some food ready for them all. It was a quite evening for the four for them Sweetie Belle having come back from her Scootaloo's house to see her niece. After they all ate dinner they went upstairs to get the guest bedroom ready for their filly while they were in the midst of that there came a knock from the door and Rarity went to answer. As she approached the door the knocking became more rapid and forceful. "Just a minute." then she reached the door pulled it open and was greeted by her parents. "M-mother.....F-father but you.....you were...and the train, how are you....." and with that she slipped to the ground out cold. She awoke and opened her eyes and grimaced at the bright lights but she forced her eyes to stay open as she took in her surroundings. She was in her room and Rainbow was snoozing on the chair next to her bed. "Rainbow!" She shouted when she saw her. Rainbow jumped up in a defensive stance and then she turned and gave Rarity a sour look. "Well you could have just nudged me awake or something you didn't have to go and shout." "Sorry dear it's just I thought I saw my parents at the door and I blacked out." when she said this Rainbow looked down and mumbled something under her breath. "What is it?" "Well you did see your parents....." "What do you mean that's not possible." said Rarity as she began to panic. 'They can't be alive,' she thought, 'If they were they would have told me or Sweetie Belle or someone.' "Well they told me their story while you were "asleep" for the night and they're still here they're spending time with Silverheart downstairs." "Could you tell them to come up here please I don't feel well and I don't want to get up." "Sure" she said as she exited the room. 'Well this is going to go well.... why wouldn't they tell me they were alive or anyone for that matter, and it's been over three years where have they been...and what if their still angry...' all these thoughts were running through her head as they walked in. None of them spoke as they all thought about what they had to say eventually Rarity's father spoke up. "Rarity I know what you're thinking and you're right we were wrong about everything, it was wrong and we know that and we'll never be able to make this up to you but I intend to do everything in my power to get things as close as possible to what they used to be." Rarity just lay there digesting what she just heard so her mother took a chance to speak, "Before you judge us at least listen to our story." Rarity simply nodded and listened to her parents story. They explained their anger at their daughter and how they had survived the crash and were saved by a small zebra tribe that had saw what happened and all their experiences there then of long struggle through the everfree forest and how long it had taken them just to get back to any real part of Equstria. It was a long tale best saved for another time (wink wink nudge nudge) and when they finished Rarity was more than just taken aback. "Wow that was.....a different story," she said, "and I forgave you for that night a long time ago and how is your....being away for so long your fault? Your my parents and you wanted the best for me and back then you thought that's what you were doing but that's all in the past and you're here now and that's what matters right?" After Rarity's speech tears were shed, bonds rebuilt and new ones made, and secrets revealed but after it was all over everyone was satisfied with their emotional day. But again there was a knock at the door and this time it was Rainbow's father. His name is Skyfall and his cutie mark is a very dark gray cloud with two streaks of lightning coming from it and his job was to regulate the lightning for the storms around Equstria. He has an all tan coat with a yellow mane. "Rainbow! Where are you I need to meet my Granddaughter!" "Dad!" shouted Rainbow as she ran up to him and pulled him into a tight embrace, "I thought you said you couldn't make it down here for another week." "I got somepony else to take it for a while I needed to be here for my daughter." he smiled as he finished his sentence and then he realized that Rarity's parents were there and Rainbow quickly introduced them all. "Well it's nice to finally meet you two Rainbow here tells me only great things about your daughter." "It's nice to meet too." "Well now that that's all out of the way where is our granddaughter?" Rarity and Rainbow both looked around the room than at each other Rainbow sighed and said, "That is a good question." HealingTurmoil Chapter 5 Rarity awoke with her eyes red and puffy from all of the night's crying and emotion. When she felt the soreness in herself from all the sobbing she frowned and was on the verge of more tears. It was still early in the morning and she started to move but stopped when she felt Rainbow's arm wrapped around her neck. At that she smiled remembering how Rainbow had walked in last night and not saying a word had crawled into her bed and pulled her into an embrace, and that was how she woke so instead of leaving the bed she lay there listening to the soothing sound of Rainbow's breathing as she fell back to sleep. About an hour and a half later Rainbow woke up and looked at Rarity and sighed remembering the events of last night. She knew she was supposed to be on the weather patrol today but she didn't care somepony else would take care of it she had to stay with Rarity today. 'Stupid ignorant ponies.' she thought, 'What ever happened to loving your child no matter what, that's what parents are supposed to do right?' Rainbow went on thinking like this for some time before she decided, 'buck it they don't matter anyways.' and then she snuggled up closer to Rarity and went back to sleep. They both slept well into the afternoon until Rarity awoke with a start because something had jumped into their bed. "Rarity! What's going on here?" asked Sweetie Belle who seemed nervous. "Oh well um I guess I should tell you now, Sweetie Rainbow and I are well to but it bluntly we are dating." Sweetie Belle seemed taken aback by this which worried Rarity but then she said, "Oh Rarity that is so CUTE!!" she then happily bounced around the room and "squeed" several times which drew a chuckle from Rainbow. "Oh Rainbow you're up." "Yup only thanks to that." she said with a gesture towards Sweetie Belle who had begun to settle down. "I apologize for my sister's behavior she can be quite....excitable." she said looking at her sister with a smile on her face. "I can tell.... so how are you doing after last night?" "I'm...better I'll get over it eventually I guess I'm glad they didn't try to take Sweetie away from though that would have pushed me over the edge." "What do you mean Rarity?" asked Sweetie who was scared. "Me and Mommy and Daddy had a disagreement last night when they found out about Rainbow and I. There's nothing to worry about dear just relax." she smiled reassuringly as she said the last part which helped to calm the young filly. "How bad was it?" she asked knowing about how much her parents approved of "fillyfoolers" "Very bad, but it's over now and they won't come back for a long time so don't worry." Sweetie ran up to Rarity and hugged her saying, "I want to stay with you I love you Rarity." "I love you too Sweetie now go play with your friends." Rainbow d'awwwed silently at the scene but she didn't let it show then a thought struck her. "I think that proves that you'll be a great mother." Rarity started blushing and said, "I don't know she's my sister not a some young child I don't know." "The way you treated her was perfect you'll be a great mother." she smiled and stared into Rarity's eyes and that was the end of the argument. "I guess but like you said it's way to early to worry about that. Anyways what would you like to do the rest of today what little there is of it left I need something to distract me. Oooh I know let's go to the spa!" "Oh no you will not get me in there." she said trying to protect her pride. Rarity thought for a second and began to pout, "Come on Rainbow for me?" she threw up some puppy dog eyes and she knew she had won when Rainbow smiled. "Fine but if anyone asks you forced me to." "We'll see about that." and with that they left the bedroom and headed out of the house. But before they could reach their goal Pinkie rounded the corner and looked worried when she saw them. "Are you two okie dokie lokie? I'm so sorry I told your parents Rarity I thought that they would've known and when I told them they got really mad and stormed out and I didn't know why so I followed them and then I heard all the shouting and I couldn't help but listen and then I saw them storm out....." "Pinkie," Rarity cut her off, "It's alright they left and I'm okay me and Rainbow are going to the spa so relax I know you didn't know how they are." "Are you sure Rarity because I feel really bad about it and..." Rarity cut her off again saying, "Yes I'm sure Pinkie, perk up it wasn't your fault." "Well that's a relief, well enjoy your spa day I have to get back to work." when she finished she bolted off and Rainbow and Rarity continued uninterrupted on to the spa where they both got the best treatment they could and when it was over Rarity kissed Rainbow and told her she'd walk herself home and with that they parted ways for the night smiles on their faces and a lighthearted pop in their steps. Rainbow flew up to her cloud mansion and Rarity walked back to her Boutique and they both stared out of their windows at the moon, which was full that night, and they of each other and smiled happily at what they hoped would be a long happy relationship, and with those happy thought they began to drift of to sleep and they both passed out at almost the same moment thinking only of each other.
BeginningsThis story is a sequel to LeMu's Discovery which needs to be read before this story. Also I have done a reading of it here. Turmoil Chapter 1 Rarity awoke with the sun beaming in through the windows and illuminating the blue Pegasus feather lying on the table. She sighed and thought of Rainbowdash. 'Oh Rainbow you're such an amazing mare,' she thought to herself, 'But this all so new.....' She let the thought just teeter at the back of her mind as she pulled herself out of bed and trotted into the bathroom and began to get ready for the day. After washing up she walked down stairs and was greeted by Opalescence. "Opal how are you doing today?" She asked Opal as per normal didn't look up from the paw she was currently licking. "Oh, I'm just so confused with everything I do love Rainbow and I know I'll never leave her but I don't know if I'll ever be able to tell anypony how I really feel about her......" Rainbow Dash's eyes fluttered open an she looked out of the window of her bedroom to where Rarity's house was and she let out a sigh of content. "I can't wait to see Rare, last night was so awesome." She said as walked downstairs and got out Celestia O's for breakfast. She poured out her cereal and began to eat. She looked around at her house and she suddenly thought "Oh crud I'll have to move out of here if I ever move in with Rarity, oh well she's more than worth it." She left the House and began to walk to Rarity's thinking about how much fun it was going to be especially when she was able to tell her friends about her new Marefriend. Rarity was just finishing her breakfast as she heard a knock on her door, and she began to smile because she already knew who it was and she was not to be disappointed. She opened the door and she was greeted by Rainbow Dash's smiling face but the part she couldn't stop staring at was those eyes. Oh how she loved her eyes the dark, deep, safe pools of magenta that they were. "Hi Rarity!" exclaimed rainbow as she leaned in for a kiss. "Good morning Dashie!" said Rarity as she leaned in too, more than happy to return the offer. It wasn't a very long kiss more of a peck but it still showed their new-found love clearly. Rainbow felt ecstatic after they broke apart thinking: 'I'm so happy that she feels this way about me it's my dream come true.' Rarity on the other hand thought: 'She's so perfect I really do love her I just don't know what every pony will think...' "Soooo...ummm.....who should we tell first?" Rainbow asked. "Wait what do you mean tell....?" Rarity asked with a hint of panic in her voice. "About us silly." said Rainbow not understanding Rarity's fears. "Why would we tell anyone?" "Why wouldn't we?" she asked finally understanding something was wrong. "Well our friends probably won't like us anymore not to mention to our family's plus...." said Rarity But she was cut off by Rainbow saying: "What do you mean they won't like us any more!?! They're our closest set of friends and they always have cared about us this won't change a thing!" "How could this not change things? You know how most ponies feel about this kind of realationship nowadays." "It might change things but it doesn't mean that they won't accept us for our feelings, they're our friends and they'll accept us no matter what you know that." "No I don't and neither do you." "Maybe they're fillyfoolers too." "Rainbow!!!" Shouted Rarity feeling awkward since she used that term. "What that's what we are isn't it?" "Well yes but I always thought that was a condescending thing to say to ponies like us." "I see it as something to be proud of that makes us different." Rainbow said in her confident voice. "Ohh....." Rarity let herself relax and began to think that maybe Rainbow was right but how could she ever tell her friends and be able to look them in the eyes again. Seeing how upset Rarity looked she walked up to her and pulled her into a tight embrace and just held her as she began to cry. "Rainbow I-I'm just so lost I do love you b-but I don't want the world to judge me because of the way I feel about you." Rarity said between sobs. "It's just so new and different to me." "Rarity.... if you don't want to tell them you don't have to, it's your choice whatever makes you happiest." said Rainbow with love in her voice. Rarity stood there and thought for some time as Rainbow waited patiently for her decision. "I-I think we should tell them.." said Rarity in a voice that would rival Fluttershy's. "Really?! Oh yeah!!" yelled Rainbowdash. "Yes really..." Rarity said in that same squeak causing Rainbow to realize how scared she really was. "Don't worry Rarity I'll be there right beside you the whole time." at this Rarity perked up slightly but still felt scared. "Oh darling I know that I'm just so scared about what everypony will say about us." "Well no matter what they say we have each other." said Rainbow compassionately. That was the last thing Rarity needed to hear because after Rainbow said it she leaned and kissed her and she held the embrace for a long time then slowly pulling away Rarity said: "I love you Dashie." "Love you too Rar'." replied Rainbow "Well now that we know we're going to tell them how should we go about it?" asked Rarity know much less afraid than she had been earlier. "I think we should tell them all separately so that way it's not super awkward with all of them there at once ya know?" "That's just what I was thinking." thought Rarity then she said "Oh that sounds like a wonderful idea darling." "Well it's settled then....Who should we tell first family or friends?" "Most definitely friends." "Well," Rainbow asked, "Which of them should be first?" "Hmmmm" went Rarity ""Hmmmm" What?" "I think we should tell twilight first." "Why her?" "She's the least likely pony I can think of that would gossip." "Oh, well first stop Twilight's!" exclaimed as she raced off through Ponyville towards Twilight's house. "This is going to put years on my coat after today I am most definitely going to need a spa day soon." sighed Rarity as she trotted of in the direction that Rainbow had flown.
First is the HardestTurmoil Chapter 2 Rainbow Dash was flying loops over Rarity as she approached Twilight's tree and with each step she felt more and more like it was a bad idea to be telling anypony about her relationship with Rainbow. "Rainbow dear could you come down here?" asked Rarity some fear in voice causing it to shake. "Sure no prob' Rar." Replied Rainbow landing elegantly next to Rarity. "I'm not so sure I can do this Dashie I thought I could but now we're so close and I'm just so scared..." "It's still your choice hon." said Rainbow looking deflated. For Rarity just hearing Rainbow call her by a pet name gave her a small burst of courage just enough for her to choke out, "Okay well I said I would and I'm a mare of my word let's go..." her voice trailed off as she finally accepted that she had to go through with it if not for her than for Rainbow. So Rarity with a knot in her throat and Rainbow with butterflies in her stomach they walked through to door of Twilight's house. "Hey Rainbow, Hey Rarity how's it going?" asked Twilight Rarity still being extremely scared and just worried about how many ways this could go wrong said nothing so Rainbow came to her rescue saying "Oh not much we just stopped by to say hello." "The both of you?" she asked just curious "Yes! Why is that weird just two friends saying hi to another friend?" exclaimed Rarity drawing a look from Twilight "What... no of course not relax Rarity no need to be so tense, hold on I'll get us all some tea and snacks." Twilight turned and trotted into the kitchen and the two mares stared at the door until they were certain she was gone. "Well that was smooth wasn't it." said Rainbow grinning at Rarity as she walked over to a cushion on the floor. "I'm sorry darling I'm just nervous." "Well when she comes back are you going to tell her or am I?" "I-I think I will actually maybe it'll help me fell better about telling the others." "Are you sure Rar'?" "Yes" she said as she nuzzled Rainbow affectionately. A few seconds after they pulled apart Twilight walked back in a tray held by a purple haze in tow. "Well here we are girls." she said with a smile. "That looks great Dear." said Rarity with a forced smile. "So what's the real reason you decided to stop in here?" asked twilight "Well ummm....I....well....we....I mean Rainbow Dash and I.....well..." Rarity couldn't get herself to say but she looked over at Rainbow who was giving her a warm reassuring smile and said, "Well to put it bluntly me and Dashie are dating." Twilight was taken back and couldn't think of anything to say. She stood and walked over to the window and just stared out it leaving Rarity and Rainbow worried. 'Oh no.' thought Rarity 'I was Right all along they won't like us anymore.' she started to panic and was on the verge of a "worst possible thing" moment when Twilight suddenly turned and said. "Well that definitely not what I had expected from this visit....but I want you both to know that I support you both and that this won't change anything between us even though this is quite....different." Twilight finished the awkward sentence that relieved some of the stillness of the room and then Rarity spoke "Really? Oh wow that is such a relief... I was so worried that you would hate us after we told you." as she finished she felt tears form in her eyes . "Hey Rar' what's wrong?" Rainbow asked noticing her loves tears "Oh nothing I'm just so happy!" she replied as she pulled a hoof across her face to wipe them away as she did Rainbow walked over to her and hugged her smiling as she did so. Rainbow whispered into Rarity's ear, "I love you" Rarity rather then reply with words kissed Rainbow, and they left Twilight standing there awkwardly as they held the kiss for some time. When they broke apart they turned to Twilight and apologized for their "behavior". After some time, tea and, talking they left knowing that their secret was safe as long as they needed it to be and they left to go and tell their next friend , Applejack. They left Twilight's house smiling and walking close together down the road towards Sweet Apple Acres. they took their time savoring the beautiful scenery with each other and just enjoying each other in general. After about a fifteen minute walk they arrived at the earth pony's farm and were greeted by Apple Bloom "Howdy ya'll whats gotcha ya up here?" "We would like to see your older sister Apple Bloom is she here?" asked Rarity politely. "Uhh yea she's out buckin though." "Oh well we could come back another time." said Rarity "She'll be back soon she left lil' over an hour ago." "Then we'll wait." Rainbow said. "Alrighty then I'll tell her to go see you when she gets back" "Thanks Apple Bloom." "Yes thank you dear." "No problem." Rainbow and Rarity sat outside the barn chatting as they waited for Applejack to show up, and after about thirty minutes they could hear her trot up from behind the barn. "Well howdy ya two, what brings ya'll up to Sweet Apple Acres today?" "We have something to tell you that's kind of difficult for us well for me to say." Rarity said with a lot more confidence then she had when she had spoke to Twilight. "Actually Rar' I wanna tell her." Rainbow said "Oh alright then Dashie." "Tell me what now?" ask AppleJack "Well me and Rarity are together now." Rainbow said happily. "Oh....well umm I normally don't approve of....fillyfoolers." "Oh Rainbow I told you this would happen! I knew somepony was going to be upset with this!" tear again formed in Rarity's eyes and she started to sob. Rainbow on the other hand was shocked at AppleJack's response "What's so wrong with being a fillyfooler AppleJack?" she shouted, "Have they ever done anything to hurt you our your family? Not to mention we're your friends and we would do anything to help you no matter what I mean.....!" but she was cut off by AppleJack who said "Now wait jus a minute, I said normally I don't approve of fillyfoolers but I reckon that for you two I'd have to make an exception and maybe give em a chance now settle down ya hear?" Rarity who had been sobbing in the background was still nervous and said with her trademark pout, "Really you'd do that for me and rainbow?" "Why o'course I would your my friends ain't ya?" "Well yes..." "Then just relax because I won't let something like this come 'tween us okay Rarity?" "I guess that makes sense" Rainbow chose this time to apologize for her outburst, "Hey uh AppleJack sorry about my umm episode back there I just didn't want to see Rarity get hurt and I got defensive." "Oh don't worry sugar cube I can see why you did it I might've in yer position too." "Well thanks for you know being how accepting you are." "No problem... who else knows?" "Twilight." replied Rarity who had regained her composure. "No one else?" "Nope. In fact I think we should go tell Pinkie" this time it was Rainbow who spoke. "That is going to be a hoot but I'll let you two go I'm gonna go let this settle." said AppleJack as she turned and trotted into her family's home. "Well let's go find Pinkie, I don't think telling her is going to be easy just because she simply won't be able to contain herself." said Rarity "You know she's going to go crazy right?" "Oh yes she will....."
DoubtsTurmoil Chapter 3 "OmigoshOhmigoshOhmigoshOhmigoshOhmigosh*squee*!!!" screamed Pinkie as she bounced around with her usual flamboyant style, "this is so awesome I definitely have to throw a party! How many ponies could come...how about all of ponyville or maybe it'll just be us what do you think?" The two mares just stood and waited for Pinkie to finish her rant because they were accustomed to her bubbly personality. She finally stopped after about 12 minutes of her insanity she finally started to calm down and Rarity said, "Well Pinkie that sounds great and all but ummm me and Rainbow just want to keep it to family and friends for now. So no parties will be necessary sorry dear." "Oh well it's still cool that you guys are dating I always saw how Rainbow looked at you Rarity." Rainbow started to blush and said "Stop it Pinkie I didn't like stare at her all the time did I?" "Actually......" Rarity was smiling as she left those two to argue as she walked into a different part of Sugarcube Corner and she was greeted by two young foals playing with some toys. "Well aren't you two just the cutest little things!" she exclaimed watching as one of them started nibbling on one of the toys it was playing with. She began to play with the foals for a little while during which Rainbow was still talking with Pinkie. "I did not get all starry eyed when I was around her!!" "Did to" "Ughhhh" Rainbow let out an angry sigh and stalked off to find Rarity. "Oh you two are just so sweet." Rarity said as she played with two young foals who enjoyed having someone new to play with. They were just playing with same toys they had been when Rarity walked in and she was enjoying herself but suddenly she had a thought. "Oh no......Dashie where are you dear?" Rainbow walked through the door and said, "Right hear hon' what's up?" "I was playing with these two when I thought about how much I wanted Children....." "What do you...oh well yeah I want kids too I mean we could adopt or something like that." "That wouldn't be the same it's not ours you know?" "What do you mean?" Rarity sighed and said, "Well if we were to adopt it's not like the child would actually be ours so it wouldn't look or be like us not to mention it probably wouldn't accept us as it's parents." "You don't know that." "Well even if I don't would you really want to put some young colt or filly through life having to mares for parents what would people say to her, not only that what would they DO to her or him. I don't know if I could do that to some poor child." "Just because they're adopted doesn't mean they're different or wrong they're still just a pony like you or me. Lots of ponies are adopted too." "Well what makes you think that it's so similar how could you know?" "Actually it's the same Rar'...I'm adopted, I've never told anyone but...I am my real parents abandoned me outside the hospital after I was born and I was there for a couple of weeks till my dad came and adopted me and it was never different than what it would've been with real parents I think we were closer than most parents children relationships." "I had no idea Rainbow.... I'm so sorry." "Don't be I love my father." she said with a pained expression "Oh...well just because it was like that for you doesn't mean it's the same." "It is though there's no difference plus we don't have to worry about it right now it's way to early to think about things like that." "You're right. Well I suppose we should go tell Fluttershy she won't be surprised though I talked to her after we kissed because she knows you best." "Ahh okay well let's go than." They walked out of the bakery going towards Fluttershy's cottage which was quite a ways away and instead of flying Rainbow walked close to Rarity down the road and they didn't say much and they just enjoyed what they had it took about fifteen minutes to reach the small cottage and they knocked lightly on the door and Fluttershy answered. "Oh hello you two so I'm guessing your..." she paused and started to blush, "well umm together." "Ya that's right we've already told everyone else." replied Rainbow "Oh well that's good I guess i'm happy for you two." This time Rarity answered, "Thank you Fluttershy it really means a lot to me plus thanks again for being there for me when I needed you." "Oh it's just what friends are for, well I have to go take care of the animals." "Alright bye Flutters." said Rainbow "Yes goodbye dear have a nice night." "Goodbye." said Fluttershy as she closed the door. Rarity and Rainbow walked back to her boutique because the day was gone and it was about ten at night when they arrived at Rarity's home and they walked in together and were met by Sweetie Belle. "Hey sis' where you been and why's Rainbow here?" Rarity blushed and she said, "Sweetie that's rude! She's a guest and she'll be staying her tonight right Rainbow?" Rainbow was taken back by the last statement and was tempted to refuse but she said, "Oh yea." "Oh well is it okay if I stay with Apple Bloom tonight?" "Of course you can dear." Rarity said with a smile and an excited Sweetie Belle ran through the door and was gone. Rarity suddenly turned and started kissing Rainbow just like they had at Twilight's party. 'Ooohh this is going to be a good night' thought Rarity as she started to push her tongue into Rainbow's mouth like Rainbow had done to her at Twilight's party which drew a sharp intake of breath from Rainbow. 'Ha,' she thought, 'I am good at this' then they pulled apart and Rainbow was left with a goofy smile on her face while Rarity looked smug "How was that Dashie?" she asked giggling "That was so awesome!(Dash's Awesome Face) Rarity laughed and said, "Hahahaha good that's what I was going for!" "Yea it was nice...." "What?" "Oh nothing I was just wondering if that's as far as it's going to go." "I'm not quite comfortable enough yet for that yet." "Well tell me when...." "Oh stop it Dashie...." "Why does it make you uncomfortable? How about self concious or maybe...." But she was cut off as the door to her store burst open and in walked..... "Oh no......" said Rarity There standing in all there glory was..... "Hello Rarity!" Rarity swallowed and began to shake 'Oh no this is not going to go well at all.....' Oh how I love my cliffhangers this ones for you monster cai. brohoof /)
Rejection Rejection Turmoil Chapter 4 Rarity continued to shake as she said, "H-hello mother, father." "Hello dear!" Rarity's mother exclaimed (imagine a Canadian or Michigander accent like mine :P) "Come give daddy a hug." her father said (again same accent but more masculine) Rarity walked up to her dad trying to hide a guilty look and hugged him, "What are you doing here?" "Oh we just thought that stopping in for a visit was a good idea because we were passing through." "Ah well just go ahead and make yourselves at home, I'll show you to the guest room." During the entire exchange Rainbow just stood and watched Rarity and how scared she was. 'Oh no' she thought, 'She's really freaking out I don't know what to do...' just then Rarity's father spotted her. "Rarity you haven't introduced us to your friend yet." "What oh yes mother, father this is Rainbowdash she's a good friend of mine." Rarity shot a look over to Rainbow which said don't say anything about us. Rainbow got the message and said, "Yeah me and Rarity have been friends for awhile now and I was going to stay the night but now I think I'll just go home." Rarity's mother jumped up at this and said, "Oh no that just won't do we didn't mean to ruin any plans we can just go find a hotel for the night." "Oh I couldn't do that to you guys it would be so rude of me." "No it's rude of to barge in and ruin plans we'll just go and find a hotel for the night." said Rarity's father as he picked up the luggage he had dropped on the floor and before they could protest anymore they were gone. "Well that was almost too awkward." said Rainbow but when she didn't get an answer she looked over at her and saw that she was just staring off after her parents Rainbow walked up to her and put a hoof around her neck. "What's wrong Rar'?" Rarity snapped out of the trance she was in and said in a quiet voice, "My parents hate fillyfoolers and coltcuddlers." "What do you mean?" "Why did you think I was so afraid to tell anypony my parents hate people like us it was how I was raised but I never listened to them always thought it was so dumb of them so does Sweetie Belle but my parents are very intolerant." "So are you saying that if you told your parents that they would hate you?" "Yes! That's exactly what I'm saying I thought everypony was like them too that's why I was so worried." "I guess that explains that but what are we going to do then?" "Oh I don't know...Oh of all the worst possible things that could have happened THIS IS THE WORST POSSIBLE THING!!! she used her infamous "Summon chair" spell and fell into it as she began to sob. Rainbow rolled her eyes and thought, 'What a drama queen' *sigh* she walked up Rarity and held her in a tight hug and cooed, "Don't worry hon' it's going to be okay they aren't going to find out how could they we only told our friends and it's not like it's all over town or anything." Rarity looked up tears still in her eyes and said, "Are you sure? I don't want to know what my parents might do or think." Rainbow smiled comfortingly saying, "Of course I'm sure." these of course turned out to be famous last words so to speak as Rarity's parents burst back into the house looking angry. "Rarity! Where are you?" shouted her father just before he saw the two mares holding each other on the chair. They quickly broke apart and stared at her parents fear in their eyes. "Rarity what is this?" Shouted her father angrily "I...it...well umm" she struggled to find the right words so Rainbow took the initiative and said, "Me and your daughter are dating and we are happy the way we are." her voice carried authority and was firm but it didn't do much to dispel the feelings in the room and Rarity's mother spoke up and shouted "We knew what was going on because of your pink friend we just had to make sure it was true," she turned to Rarity still fuming and said, "What is wrong with you! How could yo do something like this to us I thought we raised you better than that." Rarity's father jumped into the conversation, "Not only that but what about your sister does she know? Because if she doesn't she coming with us and you won't see her again for a long time." Rarity was completely shocked and couldn't find the words she wanted to say so again Rainbow spoke up, "What is wrong with her!? What's wrong with you she's your daughter it shouldn't matter who or what she likes you should still love her no matter what." Rarity's parents turned from their crying daughter and her father began to yell at Rainbow, "This is your fault if it hadn't been for you she wouldn't be like this what have you done to her she was perfect and then you came along and ruined it all." "She chose to be with me I never forced her to do anything and I never would." "That's a lie she'd never date a mare especially one like you!" her mother screamed "A mare like me? What somepony who cares about her and her feelings? How stupid and ignorant are you?" Rarity turned and faced her parents, "What is wrong with you two? Am I not aloud to be happy to live MY life as I choose? And for your information I was born this way it's not a choice and I do love Rainbow and I would date a mare like her she's perfect you two are just ignorant and mean just.....leave oh and Sweetie Belle supports mares like Rainbow and I so just leave her here because she's not going with people like YOU!" she finished her speech and stalked out of the room fuming with tears streaming down her face. Rainbow stood there for a second before throwing one last look after Rarity's parents and she followed her leaving Rarity's parents alone. "Just leave her she's not worth it." "What about Sweetie?" "I don't even know where she is let's just get to Manehatten." They left soon after still angry at their daughter. Rainbow walked into Rarity's room a look of concern on her face. "Hey Rar'..." she said tentatively. Instead of a reply Rarity just buried her face further into her pillow. Instead of trying to talk to her Rainbow just walked up to her laid in the bed snuggled up next to her and buried her muzzle in her neck and they just laid like that till they both drifted off to sleep. A/N That Michigander accent I was talking about sounds like this. We pronounce really hard R's and we don't really pronounce our T's we say 90 like ninedy instead of ninety lol also we don't say y'all we say you guys. Also I'm scraping trying to get an update schedule because #1 I hate organization and order I love chaos (not saying I like discord) and #2 It's kind of annoying writing under a schedule so I'm giving up on that but I will post at least one chapter a week.
MemoriesTurmoil Chapter 6 Several years after Rarity and Rainbow got together. Rainbow woke up stretched and yawned, then she walked out of her bedroom towards the kitchen. She listened to the sound of somepony preparing some type of breakfast. She walked through the door and saw Sweetie Belle rushing around cooking up pancakes. Rainbow smiled at how mature the young mare was now. Her thoughts drifted off to when she got her cutie mark. They were all at the school play watching as the Cutie Mark Crusaders each played their own role Sweetie Belle was more nervous than her friends because she had to sing a solo piece and she hadn't sung in public before. When it was finally time for her to go she swallowed the lump in her throat and stood at the center of the stage and she sang and it was beautiful. Ponies couldn't believe what they were hearing such sweet sound coming from such a young filly! They all watched mouths agape as her flank began to glow and on it appeared a microphone surrounded by a pink heart.... Rainbow shook her head at the end of the thought and said, "Hey Sweetie how goes the cooking?" She turned around quickly and relaxed when she saw who it was, "Oh it's fine I wanted to wake up early today and surprise you two with it being your anniversary and all." "That's sweet of you...Sweetie no pun intended." Sweetie laughed and said, "Oh it's fine happens more than you'd think." "Alright well let your sister sleep I was planning on going into town and getting her something." "What were you going to get?" "I dunno I was going to go window shopping." "Oh, well go have fun then I'll finish this up." "Thanks Sweetie." Rarity awoke to the sweet scent of pancakes tickling her nose and a small present on her chest. The tag attached to it said "To Rarity love Rainbow" Rarity groaned because she thought she had convinced Rainbow that presents weren't necessary but she went and bought one anyways and now she felt guilty because she had none to give. "Oh well." she breathed out with a heavy sigh. She stood up and walked downstairs into the dining room where she found "Happy Anniversary" balloons suspended above the table held down by a decorative weight. She smiled when she saw Rainbow sitting at the table talking with Sweetie. "Hello girls. How are you doing today?" They both turned their heads and said in unison, "Fine you?" they looked at each other and giggled after they said it. "Oh I'm great just wondering what this is." she replied as she held up her gift. "That's your present silly." "I thought we agreed this wasn't going to happen." "So?" "Your Impossible Rainbow." "Oh I know" "I love it though." she laughed as she sat down she opened the present and gasped at what was inside. "Do you like it?" asked Rainbow asked worry in her voice. "Oh it's beautiful" she breathed as she pulled out a stunning silver horn ring made of silver and encrusted with gems that matched her eyes and cutie mark's colors, the two slightly different shades of blue complementing each other stunningly. "I'm glad you like Rar'." "Now I feel bad because I didn't get you a present." "Don't sweat it, it doesn't matter to me." "Are you sure?" "Of course I am." "Alright then dear, well I am famished who'd like to dig into those splendind looking pancakes?" They began to eat and Rainbow looked across the table to Rarity and Sweetie something in Sweeties expression worried her and she had a guess as to what it was. "Sweetie Belle what's wrong?" "What oh... nothing I'm fine." "You don't sound like it." Rarity understood what was happening now and turned to Sweetie. "Sweetie it's okay just talk to us we know what's wrong." "I miss them Rarity." "I do too Sweetie Belle...." her voice drifted of as she thought of that night several years back. "I don't even know where she is let's just get to Manehatten." said Rarity's father as they stormed out of her house. They began the short walk to the train station complaining about their daughter's choice the whole way there. When they got to the train station they got tickets for a late night train to Manehatten they boarded the train a little after midnight and then they were on their way about halfway to their destination the engineer for the train fell asleep and the train rounded a curve going way to fast, it flipped and killed most passengers on impact the few who weren't killed were severely injured and most of those poor ponies died from a combination of shock and blood loss among the ones who were killed instantly were Rarity's parents. She received the news two days after the accident happened and she was nearly inconsolable for weeks remembering the last things they had ever said to each other. It took time and paitence but Rarity finally came to forgive herself and her parents for the last night they spent together and life went on..... Rarity's eyes teared up as she thought of the memory and she hugged Sweetie Belle saying, "I know that you miss them dear but there'e nothing we can do about it except keep on living for them so cheer up you've got your whole life ahead of you." "You're right sis I'm going over to Scootaloo's I need to see her." "Take all the time you need dear I understand." she said smiling warmly. "Thanks sis I might just stay the night." Rarity nodded and watched her sister leave to go visit her own fillyfriend. No one was surprised when she came out it was rather obvious they way they were always together. She sighed and turned to Rainbow. "You've got that look in your eye Rarity what are you thinking about?' "I-I think I want a baby...."
ChildTurmoil Chapter 7 Rarity and Rainbow were on the train to Canterlot talking excitedly to each other. "What kind of foal do you want?" as Rainbow who had been waiting for this trip for weeks. She was trotting here and there as she could barely contain herself. "A nice quiet calm one, and she most definitely has to be a she." she replied appearing to be deep in thought. "I want her, because I agree with you on that, to be strong and energetic ya know a small me, daring, adventurous, brave." "That is not at all what I have in mind, I want a smart level headed daughter who's not going to go and get herself into trouble at every turn." she said with a devious smile playing at the corner of her lips as she turned on Rainbow. "Hey that's not fair," she pouted, "I don't into trouble that often....at least not anymore." she finished the sentence as she tried to fight off the smile that she could feel coming but it was to no avail. "It is sooo fair." she advanced on Rainbow still shining that devious smile as well as a playful look in her eye. Rainbow decided to play along and she backed into the corner of their train compartment Rarity continued her advance as she dropped into a predatory stance and slowly began her approach. When she was in range she pounced on Rainbow and began to kiss her deeply then she had a thought and she slowly brought her hoof up so Rainbow couldn't see it and she scratched the base of her left ear at the back and she immediately felt Rainbow melt in her arms. 'Heh heh works eveytime' she thought as she heard Rainbow let out a quiet moan. She walked over to the window and saw that they were almost at the station. (what did you think I'd make them do it on the train jeeezzzz) "Rainbow pull yourself together we're here." she said as she laughed at Rainbow who was splayed out on the floor where she had left her. "That. Definitely. Was. Not. Fair." she heaved as she pulled herself together and of the floor. "And why pray tell is that?" "Because I can't do it that to you." "Who ever said that darling?" she said with a wink as she left the train. At that Rainbow got excited and followed her off the train where she was greeted rather unexpectedly by Celestia. "Oh, hello princess." she said with a bow "There's no need for that my little pony." she said gently. "I'm sorry princess." "Just Celestia will do Rainbowdash" "Ok pri-Celestia." she said rather awkwardly "So why are you here to meet us Celestia?" asked Rarity. "Twilight told of your plans to adopt and I thought that I would join you two as you looked." "That's very sweet of you." "There's also something I'd like to ask of you." "What is it?" asked Rarity. "Well you know about the ongoing struggle for ponies like you two correct?" "You mean the gay marriage and equal rights thing?" "Yes" "What do you want us to do?" asked Rainbow who was deep in thought about what Celestia could want from them. "Well I am a large supporter of the movement myself and I wanted to know if you two would speak for us, I'm hoping that seeing the ponies that have saved their lives on several occasions will help some ponies to realize how for lack of a better word "stupid" they are being." Rainbow looked over to Rarity smiling and Rarity knew how exciting that would be for Rainbow seeing as she was one of the movements biggest supporters. "Well," Rarity said, "I'd be happy to help and I know Rainbow would be too." "Wonderful girls well here's the orphanage I have some duties I need to attend to unfortunately good day to you two." "Goodbye Celestia" "See ya Celestia." Celestia walked away followed by her guards and Rarity and Rainbow turned and looked at the orphanage then they walked in. Several hours and no luck later they walked out of the orphanage looking crestfallen. "I never thought finding a nice little foal would be so difficult." sighed Rarity as she walked with Rainbow to the hotel they were going to staying in for the night. "You're telling me well there's always other orphanages." "I suppose you're right." "Ya and we'll the perfect eventually let's not give up" "True....Wait do you hear that?" asked Rarity as they stopped walking to listen and there it was again it sounded like a young foal crying out. "Yeah I do it sounds like a foal where is it?" "It's coming from over there." she said as she approached an alleyway behind the orphanage, and there on the ground in a cardboard box was a young foal it was a unicorn with a dark blue coat and slightly lighter blue hair with black streaks and it was just old enough to speak but it wasn't speaking equestrian it spoke Germane. "Mutti...Mutti. wo bist du?" it cried between sobs. "Oh...it's germane hold on I speak a little... Kind wo ist dein mutti (Child where is your mother)?" she asked kindly. "I-Ich weiß nicht(I-I don't know.)" "Wie lange hast du hier gewesen(How long have you been here)?" "I-Ich weiß nicht" "Hmmm I think this child has been abandoned sadly..." her voice trailed off as she looked into the giant saucers that were the foals eyes and she understood what this young filly had been through and her heart melted as she stared at the poor thing. "Rainbow we can't leave her here...I think she might be the one for us just look at her she's adorable we must take her." Rainbow looked down at the foal as well and when she looked into those eyes she felt the same way Rarity had and she agreed so they took her into the orphanage and got everything sorted out and they took her to the hotel with them and they stayed up with her all night trying to coax her into sleep but it was distraught at it's abandonment so they simply stayed up with her and played with her until she smiled and started laughing and the next day it was back on the train to Ponyville and her new home. A/N I do actually speak some German so you will actually get to hear how those parts are supposed to be said...roughly so.
NamesTurmoil Chapter 8 Rarity and Rainbow arrived in Ponyville with their new daughter, and were welcomed by their friends and of course a party hosted by Pinkie. "Hello girls!" exclaimed Twilight who was in the front of the pack heading towards the train station. "Oh hello Twilight, girls." suddenly Pinkie Pie burst out of the crowd bouncing around as bubbly as ever shouting, "Ohhhh where is he...or she...it?" she asked with a questioning face. "Well everypony this is our daughter Silverheart." said Rarity with an awkward smile as she stepped to the side to reveal the young filly who was hiding behind her. She was smaller than sweetie bell with a light gray coat and a black and gray streaked mane. She squealed when Twilight smiled and bent down to say hello. "She's a little shy I guess Twilight sorry about that, If it's okay with everypony we've all had a long trip and we'd be glad if we just go home and get some alone time with our new daughter." "Oh I don't mind," said Twilight. Pinkie on the other hand visibly deflated but agreed and after a few more greetings they were on their way home. They arrived after about ten minutes of walking and walked into their home. "Well here we are Silverheart you new home." on the train ride home they had discovered that she did in fact not only speak germane but equaine as well. The little filly rather than say anything just began running around happily getting accustomed to the house. Rarity and Rainbow looked at each other and smiled lovingly and walked into the kitchen to get some food ready for them all. It was a quite evening for the four for them Sweetie Belle having come back from her Scootaloo's house to see her niece. After they all ate dinner they went upstairs to get the guest bedroom ready for their filly while they were in the midst of that there came a knock from the door and Rarity went to answer. As she approached the door the knocking became more rapid and forceful. "Just a minute." then she reached the door pulled it open and was greeted by her parents. "M-mother.....F-father but you.....you were...and the train, how are you....." and with that she slipped to the ground out cold. She awoke and opened her eyes and grimaced at the bright lights but she forced her eyes to stay open as she took in her surroundings. She was in her room and Rainbow was snoozing on the chair next to her bed. "Rainbow!" She shouted when she saw her. Rainbow jumped up in a defensive stance and then she turned and gave Rarity a sour look. "Well you could have just nudged me awake or something you didn't have to go and shout." "Sorry dear it's just I thought I saw my parents at the door and I blacked out." when she said this Rainbow looked down and mumbled something under her breath. "What is it?" "Well you did see your parents....." "What do you mean that's not possible." said Rarity as she began to panic. 'They can't be alive,' she thought, 'If they were they would have told me or Sweetie Belle or someone.' "Well they told me their story while you were "asleep" for the night and they're still here they're spending time with Silverheart downstairs." "Could you tell them to come up here please I don't feel well and I don't want to get up." "Sure" she said as she exited the room. 'Well this is going to go well.... why wouldn't they tell me they were alive or anyone for that matter, and it's been over three years where have they been...and what if their still angry...' all these thoughts were running through her head as they walked in. None of them spoke as they all thought about what they had to say eventually Rarity's father spoke up. "Rarity I know what you're thinking and you're right we were wrong about everything, it was wrong and we know that and we'll never be able to make this up to you but I intend to do everything in my power to get things as close as possible to what they used to be." Rarity just lay there digesting what she just heard so her mother took a chance to speak, "Before you judge us at least listen to our story." Rarity simply nodded and listened to her parents story. They explained their anger at their daughter and how they had survived the crash and were saved by a small zebra tribe that had saw what happened and all their experiences there then of long struggle through the everfree forest and how long it had taken them just to get back to any real part of Equstria. It was a long tale best saved for another time (wink wink nudge nudge) and when they finished Rarity was more than just taken aback. "Wow that was.....a different story," she said, "and I forgave you for that night a long time ago and how is your....being away for so long your fault? Your my parents and you wanted the best for me and back then you thought that's what you were doing but that's all in the past and you're here now and that's what matters right?" After Rarity's speech tears were shed, bonds rebuilt and new ones made, and secrets revealed but after it was all over everyone was satisfied with their emotional day. But again there was a knock at the door and this time it was Rainbow's father. His name is Skyfall and his cutie mark is a very dark gray cloud with two streaks of lightning coming from it and his job was to regulate the lightning for the storms around Equstria. He has an all tan coat with a yellow mane. "Rainbow! Where are you I need to meet my Granddaughter!" "Dad!" shouted Rainbow as she ran up to him and pulled him into a tight embrace, "I thought you said you couldn't make it down here for another week." "I got somepony else to take it for a while I needed to be here for my daughter." he smiled as he finished his sentence and then he realized that Rarity's parents were there and Rainbow quickly introduced them all. "Well it's nice to finally meet you two Rainbow here tells me only great things about your daughter." "It's nice to meet too." "Well now that that's all out of the way where is our granddaughter?" Rarity and Rainbow both looked around the room than at each other Rainbow sighed and said, "That is a good question."
HealingTurmoil Chapter 5 Rarity awoke with her eyes red and puffy from all of the night's crying and emotion. When she felt the soreness in herself from all the sobbing she frowned and was on the verge of more tears. It was still early in the morning and she started to move but stopped when she felt Rainbow's arm wrapped around her neck. At that she smiled remembering how Rainbow had walked in last night and not saying a word had crawled into her bed and pulled her into an embrace, and that was how she woke so instead of leaving the bed she lay there listening to the soothing sound of Rainbow's breathing as she fell back to sleep. About an hour and a half later Rainbow woke up and looked at Rarity and sighed remembering the events of last night. She knew she was supposed to be on the weather patrol today but she didn't care somepony else would take care of it she had to stay with Rarity today. 'Stupid ignorant ponies.' she thought, 'What ever happened to loving your child no matter what, that's what parents are supposed to do right?' Rainbow went on thinking like this for some time before she decided, 'buck it they don't matter anyways.' and then she snuggled up closer to Rarity and went back to sleep. They both slept well into the afternoon until Rarity awoke with a start because something had jumped into their bed. "Rarity! What's going on here?" asked Sweetie Belle who seemed nervous. "Oh well um I guess I should tell you now, Sweetie Rainbow and I are well to but it bluntly we are dating." Sweetie Belle seemed taken aback by this which worried Rarity but then she said, "Oh Rarity that is so CUTE!!" she then happily bounced around the room and "squeed" several times which drew a chuckle from Rainbow. "Oh Rainbow you're up." "Yup only thanks to that." she said with a gesture towards Sweetie Belle who had begun to settle down. "I apologize for my sister's behavior she can be quite....excitable." she said looking at her sister with a smile on her face. "I can tell.... so how are you doing after last night?" "I'm...better I'll get over it eventually I guess I'm glad they didn't try to take Sweetie away from though that would have pushed me over the edge." "What do you mean Rarity?" asked Sweetie who was scared. "Me and Mommy and Daddy had a disagreement last night when they found out about Rainbow and I. There's nothing to worry about dear just relax." she smiled reassuringly as she said the last part which helped to calm the young filly. "How bad was it?" she asked knowing about how much her parents approved of "fillyfoolers" "Very bad, but it's over now and they won't come back for a long time so don't worry." Sweetie ran up to Rarity and hugged her saying, "I want to stay with you I love you Rarity." "I love you too Sweetie now go play with your friends." Rainbow d'awwwed silently at the scene but she didn't let it show then a thought struck her. "I think that proves that you'll be a great mother." Rarity started blushing and said, "I don't know she's my sister not a some young child I don't know." "The way you treated her was perfect you'll be a great mother." she smiled and stared into Rarity's eyes and that was the end of the argument. "I guess but like you said it's way to early to worry about that. Anyways what would you like to do the rest of today what little there is of it left I need something to distract me. Oooh I know let's go to the spa!" "Oh no you will not get me in there." she said trying to protect her pride. Rarity thought for a second and began to pout, "Come on Rainbow for me?" she threw up some puppy dog eyes and she knew she had won when Rainbow smiled. "Fine but if anyone asks you forced me to." "We'll see about that." and with that they left the bedroom and headed out of the house. But before they could reach their goal Pinkie rounded the corner and looked worried when she saw them. "Are you two okie dokie lokie? I'm so sorry I told your parents Rarity I thought that they would've known and when I told them they got really mad and stormed out and I didn't know why so I followed them and then I heard all the shouting and I couldn't help but listen and then I saw them storm out....." "Pinkie," Rarity cut her off, "It's alright they left and I'm okay me and Rainbow are going to the spa so relax I know you didn't know how they are." "Are you sure Rarity because I feel really bad about it and..." Rarity cut her off again saying, "Yes I'm sure Pinkie, perk up it wasn't your fault." "Well that's a relief, well enjoy your spa day I have to get back to work." when she finished she bolted off and Rainbow and Rarity continued uninterrupted on to the spa where they both got the best treatment they could and when it was over Rarity kissed Rainbow and told her she'd walk herself home and with that they parted ways for the night smiles on their faces and a lighthearted pop in their steps. Rainbow flew up to her cloud mansion and Rarity walked back to her Boutique and they both stared out of their windows at the moon, which was full that night, and they of each other and smiled happily at what they hoped would be a long happy relationship, and with those happy thought they began to drift of to sleep and they both passed out at almost the same moment thinking only of each other.
