Start of the vacation
Load Full StoryNext ChapterMaria’s PoV
“This is going to be so awesome!” Dash and Blitz are driving Matt and me to the dock for our spring retreat.
“Will you two please quit it? We know you’re both excited,” Matt says as I lay my head on his shoulder, “but we need to actually get to the dock before the boat leaves without us.”
My phone starts buzzing.
“Hello?” I ask.
“SPRING BREAK!” Pinkie and Bubble yell down my ear.
“Guys can you not yell down the phone? I’d rather not be part deaf before we even get on the cruise,” I say as Matt laughs from next to me.
“Are y’all comin’ or what?” Applejack must have taken the phone from our wild party animal friends.
“Yes, we are calm down,” I say. “You have your tablets right?” I ask.
“Tablets?” She asks. Oh no.
“For your seasickness?” I ask.
“Oh shoot. Do you have any?”
“No! I thought you were taking them,”
“I’ll just have to make do won’t I?” She asks.
“Yeah, we’re nearly there. See you in five minutes.”
“Who gets seasick?” Blitz asks, focusing on the road.
“Applejack,” I reply spotting the cruise ship on the docks.
We park the car and jog to the dock where the cruise is parked up.
“Finally! You guys took forever!” Pinkie appears in front of me and tackles me onto the dock.
“Well if Rainbow and Blitz didn’t show up ten minutes late, we’d be here already,” Matt replies.
“Maria! Matt!” Bubble appears and hugs me and Pinkie.
“Can I get up now?” I ask feeling uncomfortable with both Pinkie and Bubble on top of me.
“Sorry,” they both jump up as Dash and Blitz help me up.
“There y’all are,” AJ says as we walk onto the cruise and meet up with the others.
I smile as Applejack leads me to the room we’re apparently sharing.
“You think it’ll be ok?” I ask as I put my bag on the only available bed.
“I sure hope so,” she replies as we walk up to the deck.
“Spring break!” Pinkie and Bubble yell, disturbing Rarity and Elusive.
They run off. The boat leaves the dock as we hear Pinkie and Bubble scream spring break.
"Welcome aboard the Luxe Deluxe, where you'll set sail for a full week of luxurious luxuriating on our most deluxe luxury liner!" Twilight tells us as Pinkie and Bubble return.
I look over at Applejack who is already looking green. I bite my lip.
“Ooh!” Fluttershy says rubbing Applejack’s back.
“Sounds... luxurious,” Butterscotch adds looking worriedly at Applejack.
“Did you see there's a petting zoo onboard?” Dusk asks animal lovers.
“Mmmm! Smoothies!” Bubble says handing them out.
“And an all-you-can-eat buffet you can... eat all you... can eat at?” Twilight and Dusk say/asks.
Pinkie Pie screams, “Twilight, this cruise has everything! And a moving floor!”
“Don’t say that!” AJ and I say at the same time.
The floorboards creak under Pinkie’s feet.
Applejack gags then gulp, “I think I may have forgotten to pack my sea legs,” she says before she gags.
“Thank you for organizing this trip, Twilight and Dusk.” Sunset and Glare thank the two.
“I've gotta hand it to ya,” Rainbow starts.
“You really have an eye for climactic battle settings!” Blitz interrupts.
“Huh?” We all say confused.
“Imagine going head to head with a sea monster by the pool!” Dash and Blitz say together, “Ka-chow! Evil Equestrian magic flows up the diving pool!” They pause to imitate an explosion. “The boat's sinking! Everyone's screaming! And then we save the day!” They finish.
“Oh. Is the sea monster okay in the story?” Fluttershy asks.
“Better than okay!” Blitz says while drinking his smoothie.
“She's our friend now! Best spring break ever!” Rainbow finishes.
There’s an awkward silence.
“Or we could do... not that,” Sunset and Glare say together.
We all agree, wanting to have a calm spring break.
“I was hoping we could do something without... having to battle Equestrian magic for a change?” Matt and I say slowly as everyone looks at us.
“We couldn't even spend the day at Equestria World without creatin' a calamity,” Applejack says as AJ places his hand on her shoulder.
“Which we then uncalaminated, like literal awesome superheroes!” Blitz says.
Another awkward pause. AJ and I are making sure Applejack isn’t going to throw up.
Rarity sighs “Twilight, this is a most deserved respite. We're all very thankful for the chance to relax and do absolutely nothing.”
We all agree as someone’s phone goes off.
“Oh!” Rarity and Elusive gasp then scream then pant.
“What is it? Evil magic?!” Dash and Blitz both ask at the same time. I roll my eyes. Why do they even want a fight against Equestrian magic!?
“A GPS alert! We're in international waters!” Elusive tells us.
Rainbow Dash gasps.
“What does that mean?” Matt, Dash and Blitz ask.
“Tax-free shopping!” The fashionistas say then laugh. Of course.
“This is gonna sound crazy...” Sunset and Glare say.
Everyone except Dash and Blitz starts talking.
“Hey, you ok now?” I ask as Applejack slides down the side of the boat by the railings and buries her head in her arms.
“I wish I’d remembered the tablets now,” she replies.
“Do you not get seasick AJ?” Matt asks as I sit next to Applejack.
“Luckily not,” he replies as Matt pulls me up again.
“Can we-” AppleJack pauses to cough. “Go and explore?”
“Sure. You’ll be ok walking around though right?” AJ asks pulling her up.
“Yep,” Applejack replies as we walk towards the doors that lead inside.
