Ditzys secret

There are many ways on how Raindrops could have reacted after she woke up. I, of course had dried off and was back to normal pony look by then. I do remember that this was the first time she was speechless. Her quietness surprised me, seeing that its raindrops we’re talking about here. But all she did was sit and stare until I decided to break the silence.

"You don’t hate me. Do you?" It was all I could say. I was scared to death that she would think me a freak and never be friends with me again. The look on her face didn't change. It looked like she was thinking really hard but at the same time her mind was blank.

"Why would you think that?" Raindrop broke the silence and a frown crept over her face as she scooted up to Ditzy.

"You saw what I am. Aren't I a freak?" Again Raindrop just stared.

"If that's what you want to call it, but Ditzy Doo, You are my sister. If you think you’re a freak, then you’re my freak."They hugged. Raindrops blue coat was soft and fuzzy against Ditzy's muzzle. Tears streamed down her face in relief. It was one of the happiest days in her life. she had gotten her cutie mark, which she showed off to raindrop proudly. She had let loose her biggest secret to her sister, and they had gotten a super hide out to play in.

"So. Do you have any other surprises? Do you have powers or mind control?" Rain said with such enthusiasm that Ditzy could barely contain her laughter. Raindrops was back to her curious self again.

"I have used some sort of magic to turn a..a pony into ice. I don’t know about any other powers though. I can breathe under water."

"So what now? We can’t tell mom or dad about this." Raindrops was in fact correct. Just a tip. NEVER under ANY circumstances tell ANYPONY that you are a mermare on purpose. That is the number one most easy way to get you dissected. Or locked up. Or banished. Or dissected while your locked up in the place you where banished to. Or any other means of torture. Take my advice because I learned this all first handed. Now back to my story.

Ditzy told raindrops that only them two could know of this, the only place that they talked of it was in their secret hideout, bla bla bla, safety mermare rules.

"Can we show that snob Star?"

Hell no. That is the worst thing to ever do. Even if it would be fun to rub it in their faces, again it is very dangerous.

Ditzy just told Raindrops no. Finally they had to go home. It was getting late and all. Our parents scolded us for being out late, etc. etc. I’m getting boring aren't I? Well i'll skip forward a bit. How about a week? School had started and Star was at it again with his bullying. Only this time he had a crowd.

"Hi Derpy! Hi Raincluts!" Star had come up to the duo at lunch. Again to refresh your memories, Star is about a foot shorter than the average 3 year old while his age is around 12 and he has a thick head. And big mouth.

"You want a treat Star? I got this cool trick to show you. It’s called give-the-big-mouth-Shorty-a-black-eye." raindrops always spoke before thinking, sadly. What’s even sadder though is when they found out about Stars big mean brother standing nearby.

"You talking to my brother punk?" a large brown earth pony, not much taller than Ditzy (but much buffer) came up to us.

"Maybe I should teach yall a lesson." he raised his hoof for a good buck at them. Raindrops flew straight up in the air, as did Ditzy. Or at least She tried. She ended up flying straight forward into the hoof. her two new Black eyes hurt ALOT!!!! Right before he could do it again a speeding bullet came out of the sky. It knocked right into him and he went sprawling. Star ran away.

"And don’t come back until you learn your manners!!" A high pitched, but seemingly rough voice shouted out.

When Ditzy heard the voice, she discovered that it was not in fact a bullet that came to the rescue, but a pony. She had a rainbow mane and a blue coat.

"Hi I’m Rainbow dash...dude. What’s up with your eyes?" the question snapped Ditzy out of her observations. At first she was about to say that the colt had ended up giving her some black eyes before the rescue, but then she understood that the savior meant Ditzy's eyes being crossed.

"Oh she’s a mer-" I gave raindrops a look to shut it before she blurts anything out.

"I was born like this." I explained softly. Raindrops had her head down in a "sorry for almost getting you dissected" appearance.

"Um. Okay. Maybe we can hang out sometime." Rainbow said uneasily before she flew away. Later Ditzy would find that she had only said that to be nice. But at the time Ditzy was just proud of making a new friend. The only friend she would make until after 'it' happened.

Sneak peak of "Into the Everfree":

"Let’s go for a swim." Ditzy whispered into his ear.

"Last night you and your friends got attacked by a mermare! Raindrop said you got hit on the head. Poor Cappuccino got lured in by its siren song. Rain save you all by dragging you to the apples farm!" my mother had just practically read my mind, but that didn't matter. Everything came back. The kiss, the water, the sharp teeth. And then the blood. Had she eaten that flesh? Was she a cannibal? It had tasted delightful at the time, but now it didn't.
