Fluttershy's House

As they road through the streets of Canterlot City headed towards their animal loving friend's home to drop off their puppies for their normal grooming, flea check and some play time; Twilight and Sunset enjoyed one another's company as the music played through the bluetooth of the car. The summers in Canterlot had been rather peaceful lately with no real magic crisis popping up, in fact it had been about a year and some change since they'd graduated and none of them had really encountered any magic problems.

The thought of this was brought about when driving by and she passed by the local park and saw the new botanical gardens being tended to by it's head gardener Wallflower Blush whom she had heard had come out of her shell enough to start dating herself! She stayed in close contact with many of her friends from high school like Wallflower and was up to date on things they each did in life currently.

There were some like Rainbow, Fluttershy & Twilight who'd decided to go to college during the Fall and Spring opting to take off in the summer with the slight exception on Rainbow since she played a lot of sports but currently she was on her off time which was good for the speedy athlete. She was playing two sports in college Soccer and Track/Field.

With her amazing skill and strength Rainbow Dash had made quite the name for herself on the campus of Canterlot University with her moniker on the field being Sonic Rainboom Dash given that during her debut game for the school? She kicked a ball so hard it appeared to have broken the sound barrier and tore through the soccer net and let a sizable dent in the iron bleacher.

'Craziest part about that is Rainbow didn't use any of her magic. She's just gotten that much stronger since wearing it and because of all the insane training she does.'

Fluttershy was doing really well in her pursuit of a veterinarian degree so she could begin the next phase of a life long dream of her's to provide an oasis for animals of all walks of life to come and heal, rest, relax and even breed if they were a dwindling species. Fluttershy knew it would be difficult trying to get the design approved and more so get it built however she knew with help from her friends, the community and of course Rainbow Dash to help keep her wits strong? She knew she would get it done. Sunset would see to it her dream came true.

'I remember how I used to viciously mock her idea for that oasis. If nothing else it'll also be a way to flip off past me for being such a cunt' Sunset thought as she came to a stop light still thinking of her other friends as Twilight sat next to her bobbing her head back and forth to the song being played. She smiled at how adorable she looked just being in good mood, her smile just made everything brighter for her and she could never get enough of that. Listening to the music her thoughts were brought to the Dazzlings. Adagio Dazzle in particular.

'I wonder how Adagio's been. She said she was going away to Manhatten for a little while get away and experience a city she hadn't been too much during her long time on Earth.'

'Aria and Sonata have grown up so much and are moving past me. They no longer need anyone to lead them. And thus I have no to lead. Time I went out into the world and found new purpose.'

Sunset couldn't blame her, she never much went outside of Canterlot City unless she went to the beach with the girls or went camping which wasn't very often anymore. She mostly stayed in the city because it met most if not all of her needs however she still did wish to travel and Manehatten was certainly one of those places on her list. Of the three siren's Adagio was the one who was the one with the most direction but had trouble finding what she wanted which was someone who could match her intensity. Someone who would adore and cherish her like how she cherished Twilight.

'I really do feel bad for her and the others. They just wanted to be loved and shown attention. To feel special. Like they mattered. That their existence was something worth while.'

Adagio had told her much about herself and her past with the other two sirens. How in the beginning they never thrived or lusted after power or more magic. At first all they wanted was to sing and be heard, to be told they were beautiful and worth while, to have friends and maybe even fall in love and start a family of their own. They came from a pretty broken home with them having come from the same mother but different fathers.

'I never knew my mother. Celestia was the only parental figure I ever had. But the Dazzlings mother? I should have felt bad when Adagio told me that Celestia banished her to eternal imprisonment in a undersea trench...I didn't.'

Sunset didn't like that she couldn't feel empathy or sympathy for some people or things, it made her feel so...dirty. She wanted to try and see the best in people and other living beings magical or not however based on what Adagio had told her about her mother? The woman known as Harmonic Melody was cold, cruel, manipulative, crass and believed herself the most talented, beautiful and powerful creature in Equestria and even made a point to express this to her many...many off-spring.

'Mother got around quite a bit. At first it was preservation. Then it was subjugation. But of course it was always about one thing with mommy dearest. Domination.' She could remember the pure vile dripping from Adagio's voice as she could tell speaking of her past and how unkind her mother was to her effected who she ended up becoming.

Of all her siblings Adagio was only ever close with Aria and Sonata. The only two who ever accepted her for who she was. Sunset had tried many times to press Adagio about her other family but she was insistent she didn't wish to speak about them as she considered them all dead to her both figuratively and literally. However she did let it slip that she did at one point have two other siblings and in a rare case THEY were all birthed from the same father but Adagio would say nothing more.

'I hope one day we can patch up her family somehow. Maybe we can visit Equestria and she can talk to Celestia?' Sunset thought and then she felt something prod her and she came to find it was a purple finger poking her in the cheek.

"Penny for your thoughts Sunny? You've been pretty quiet." Twilight asked in her curious tone when she wanted to know something and Sunset knew she had to answer.

With a small sigh and exhale of breath Sunset put on a smile. "Just thinking about life, how friends are doing and such. It's been a few months since we've seen Adagio so I hope to see her soon for the Summer Sun Celebration. Aria and Sonata have been doing well though so it's good to always see and hear from them at least."

Twilight nodded and could always tell when Sunset had a lot on her mind. The twitches and contortions of her face and how talkative she was often indicated something about Sunset to Twilight. She too had been wondering how all their friends had been doing as they continued to drive getting closer to Fluttershy's house.

"Yeah I'm happy the two of them have finally started to be more independent. They'd let Adagio tell them what to do for so long it almost seemed like they wouldn't be able to survive without her but that couldn't be further from the truth. Aria is really smart and of course strong so she can keep them both safe and Sonata always manages to keep the mood cheery between the two of them." Twilight stated as she thought about the other two sirens of the trio. She smiled at the thought of how well she'd heard they were both doing last she'd communicated with them about a month ago.

"Heh yeah Aria's been putting her musical skills to use combined with those guitar lessons I gave her. That girl can SHRED and it shows what with all the rock shows she's been putting on lately." Sunset said with a chuckle as she even had some of Aria's tracks on her phone. She was a natural punk rock type and her band called The Blazers was rapidly gaining in popularity among the edgier types in Canterlot and even Manehatten since they played a few shows there last year.

"She is really good at rocking out I have to say. And Sonata is really happy working with Trixie as her assistant. I can't wait to see them both at the Summer Sun Celebration this year! Trixie has a gotten so good with her illusions! I hear that Microchips is also working with them as their tech specialist" Twilight said trying not to sound jealous or offended by the fact that they picked Micro over her.

Sunset was no fool however and could tell Twilight was totally jelly. Giggling a little she gave a snide side smile. "Hey Sparky what does your brother like to put on his toast?"

Twilight raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Jelly. What's that got to do with anyth-oohoohohoho You think you're cute don't you!?!" Twilight realized that Sunset just made a fool out of her and was fuming with the most adorable pout ever as she tried to look mad at Sunset.

As she continued driving and saw their destination in sight she kicked on the gas and gunned it to the side walk and skid into her usual parking spot and stopped the car on a dime making Twilight rattle around in her seat and when the car stopped her hair was frazzled out of its bun and her glasses were askew. Grinning Sunset then said.

"Meinu Watashi Kawairashī" Sunset smirked saying 'Bitch I'm adorable' in Japanese and sticking her tongue out at Twilight in classic anime girl fashion.

In the back of the car the two puppies growled and looked ready to dog pile on Sunset along with Twilight. Twilight herself sat up in her seat after fumbling about to get her seat belt off, used her magic to fix her glasses and also remove her hair clip because she knew she would be chasing Sunset around Fluttershy's yard in the next couple of seconds.

"You have about 10 seconds to run while I take off my shoes and let the puppies out of this car Sunset Shimmer." Twilight said as her eyes began glowing and her shoes began to come undone.

Sunset blushed and felt a bead of sweat run down her neck. She used her full name. She was in trouble but in the fun 'I'm so gonna get ya' kind of way. Looking out the window of the car she saw Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy on Fluttershy's front lawn, Shy was doing yoga with her animals and Rainbow seemed to be doing something sports related with Scootaloo and a few other animals.

"Oh would you look at that, Rainbow and Scoots are here. Gonna go say hi. BYE!" Sunset said as she opened the car as fast as she could and zipped out across the street ready for Twilight to begin chasing her. She enjoyed it though, their little games of tag, it was like cat and mouse and she loved every minute of it.

Twilight took a deep breath and used her magic to open the back seat of the car to let the dogs out and smiled at them. "You two go and join Fluttershy Okay? Mama Sparkle needs to teach SOMEPONY some manners." She laced her voice with a thin layer of seriousness but she was also still being playful as she got ready to dart off after Sunset.

"Pounce her a few times for us?" Smolder asked with the most adorable puppy dog pout.

"Count on it." Twilight replied with smile and shooed them away. "Run along. Shy is doing Yoga time."

The two puppies nodded and jumped out of the car and ran over to Fluttershy's yard making room for Twilight.

Craning her neck and cracking it a bit in spots she would remove her glasses and place them in the glove compartment of the car and with a focusing of her magic she enhanced her vision to 20/20. She could do this more often or just get contacts but Sunset always said she looked cuter with her glasses on so she kept them. But right now they would just get in the way.

"Ready or not here we come Sunny-Butt!" Twilight said as she smirked a viciously playful grin as she got out of the car and darted off after Sunset Shimmer like a bat out of Hell.

Fluttershy's House

Moments Earlier.

It was such a nice day. The sun was out, the clouds were generous enough to make shade for them but still give enough light to warm the body and the spirit. The wind was in a calming relaxed breezy state and all her animal friends were in zen along with her. This was Fluttershy's summer furry yoga time that she held for all the animal friends left in her care during the summer time when friends were away or if someone needed her to pet sit for them in the summer seasons when she was home visiting.

"And stretch, extend paws and tail, breath in, breath out." Fluttershy said in a calm zen like voice taught to her by her college roommate Treehugger. The two of them did yoga and meditation every morning before class with Rainbow Dash even joining from time to time before going on her morning jogs.

The year and some months away from home had done Fluttershy's body wonders and puberty hit the meek girl harder than the rainbooms hit the dazzlings with a rainbow. With help from Rainbow Dash in terms of working out and a consistently healthy diet; Fluttershy had evolved from a shy little caterpillar that she'd been in High School and blossomed into a full blown(albeit still adorably shy) butterfly with a body that would make some models jealous.

As she stretched out her arms and legs while on all fours to mimic the motions of the animals as the animals followed her; her now very oppai breasts as Rainbow Dash called them swayed back and forth in the pink and yellow sports top she was wearing. Her curvy legs and thighs straining in the pink yoga pants she was wear, her toes flexing without her socks present showing off the cute little pink butterflies painted on her toenails. Her long pink hair tied into a ponytail and a sweatband around her forehead.

"Good job every critter. Now go into a relaxation state and we can begin the quiet meditation-"

SKKKKKKKKKKKKKIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRT!!

"Eeeep!" Fluttershy yelped nearly jumping out of her skin at the loud skidding of tires on the road. Tumbling onto her rear she looked over to see it was Sunset's car. This brought a smile to her face however also brought a look of confusion as to why Sunset pulled in so fast that like that however she soon got her answer when she saw Sunset bolting out of the car like she was being chased by some monster and sped by her saying.

"HI SHY, BYE SHY!" Sunset said rapidly as she ran off towards Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo.

It was then Smolder and Spike came over and stopped in front of her with cheeky smiles on their faces as Fluttershy looked at them for answers as to whats going on.

"Sunny pranked Twi by skidding the car and stopping hard and frazzling her" Smolder giggled with a smirk.

"Twi is gonna get her." Spike chuckled as she watched Twilight burst forward from the car and begin chasing Sunset Shimmer like a mad woman.

"SUNSET SHIMMER YOU GET BACK HERE AND FACE ME!!!!" Twilight shouted in a magically amplified voice making it thunder and echo as she gave chase.

Fluttershy sighed and stood up and dusted the grass off herself and went to walk towards her house and ushered all the animals to follow her inside so they could continue the yoga inside. She heard a collection of whines and barks and yowls of protest however they were instantly squashed when she used 'the stare' and uttered one word. "In." She pointed a dominant finger inside the house and every single critter obeyed Fluttershy.

With a proud smile she skipped her way back inside and closed the door knowing that things were likely to get crazy outside given Rainbow was likely to get involved. She knew not even her stare would get them to stop and truthfully? She didn't want to stop them because she had a feeling the end result of this was going to be a fun one.

"One more! I've almost narrowed it down!" Scootaloo said with excited vigor as she hopped back and forth on her feet ready for one more game.

Today was finally going to be the day that Scootaloo got her own pet. Her auntie's Lofty & Holiday said she was finally old enough and shown responsible enough to own a pet. So of course she would come to Fluttershy to pick out her first pet. Rainbow Dash of course wanted to help and was here as coach for the animals to get them pumped for the different challenges Scootaloo had in mind to see which of them was fit to be her pet since she was a young daredevil.

Rainbow was dressed in her typical gym wear which consisted of a blue and white t-shirt, skin tight sweat pants with a rainbow stripe down the thighs and her track shoes with her hair tied into a long ponytail with a red sweatband around her forehead.

The animals of choice were a raccoon. A blue Jay. A dog. A cat. A rabbit & a mouse. Scootaloo had asked if Fluttershy if she had any more 'awesome' animals however she wasn't allowed to have a bear for a pet. Each of the critters were panting and seemed exhausted except for the blue jay who fluttered in the air looking spry and ready to go again just like Scootaloo.

"C'mon guys! You wanna impress Scoots don't cha? Up and at em! She needs an awesome pet and you all need to get it in gear! So this next challenge is simple! A good ole fashion raaaaaaaaaaah!" Rainbow was giving a rousing speech to the animals in line to be the pet for her honorary sister Scootaloo when she suddenly felt a palm swiftly slap her as on the ass.

"HI DASHIE BYE DASHIE!" Sunset shouted as she slapped Rainbow ass soaked up some of her magic and zipped off at super speed with a red and yellow coattail behind her. 'Pay back for all those slaps to the ass in High School!'

Rainbow gaped and wondered what the Hell just happened but then she realized everything when she saw a flustered and madly giggling Twilight rocketing her way chasing Sunset. Putting up a hand to stop Twilight she looked at her with a smirk as she put a hand on her hip.

"She skid stopped and fumbled you. Didn't she?" Rainbow smirked as she recalled hearing the car skid to a halt but didn't pay it much mind after that.

With a venomously sweet smile Twilight said. "I'll buy you a 6 pack of hard zap apple cider and do your first big research paper if you catch and bring her back to me." Twilight said plainly knowing Rainbow was going to want to make a deal.

Rainbow chuckled and stretched a bit and tapped her right foot to the ground as she cracked her neck a bit. "You had me at six pack of zap apple cider. Deals a deal Egghead. I'll do my own work but thanks for the offer. Gotta Dash." Rainbow said as she zoomed off with a small sonic boom knocking Twilight on her butt in the grass next to Scootaloo.

"Hehe I love it when she says that." Scootaloo remarked as she saw her mentor speed off to play tag with Sunset Shimmer.

Scootaloo had grown quite a bit since she had last seen the young daredevil. She was currently a sophomore in High School and had grown a couple inches taller however compared to Rainbow she was still pretty short however she did grow out her purple hair a little. She was dressed in typical shorts and a t-shirt with sneakers meant for exercising and had her trademark scooter next to her as it looked like she was gearing up for a race with the animals for some reason.

"Hi Scoots." Twilight said with a small sigh and chuckle.

"Heya Twi. Sunset got you good with that prank. Heh you really don't think she will be able to outrun Rainbow though do you?" Scootaloo looked at Twilight incredulously. She had full faith in Rainbow Dash's ability to catch Sunset Shimmer in no time at all.

"Heh oh I KNOW she will catch her. But Rainbow is a show off so she's gonna milk it and let Sunny run. Which is exactly what I want." Twilight gave a devious little giggle as she stood back up and dusted off her skirt.

"Were you always this scary?" Scootaloo said feeling a cold shiver run up her spine.

Twilight smirked and stuck her tongue out at the young daredevil and said "Only when I wanna be. I estimate that Rainbow will bring Sunset back here in the next hm...30.5 seconds. She'll take 10 or 20; give or take a few nano-sec just to mess with her." Twilight rolled her eyes and giggled.

Scootaloo cocked an eyebrow. "How do you know that?"

Twilight smiled and looked at her watch. "Because Rainbow, much like Sunset LOVES to 'play' with her prey first and is a show off."

Scootaloo blushed and rolled her eyes as she went back to playing with the animals with a huff. "Tch gross. You sound like Sweetie Belle."

Twilight raised an eyebrow at that and looked at Scootaloo noticing her change in demeanor. "Oh? And what's wrong with that? Rarity tells me Sweetie has been doing quite well and she's even dating I hear" Twilight replied with a smile having heard tell from Rarity that her little sister had grown up quite a bit and moved past many of her juvenile phases and that included her rivalry/hatred for a certain spoiled bully.

Scootaloo's face morphed into a pained scowl. "Yeah shes dating that...that...no good spoiled cunt Diamond Tiara!" Pure venom dripped from her voice when she uttered Diamonds name. She hated that spoiled little snot with all her heart and she was awaiting the day she would break Sweetie's heart just so she could kick the shit out of her smug little rich face.

Twilight gasped and stomped her foot and glared at Scootaloo. "Scootaloo! You watch you mouth! Diamond Tiara is not that kind of girl anymore I am sure! That's no way to talk about-"

Scootaloo whirled around and turned to Twilight with her face formed into a scowl so hard it made Twilight cringe but it silenced her right away. "Oh yeah?! Why the FUCK not huh!? She made it a point to torment and bully us EVERY SINGLE DAY since 3rd grade! She's made Sweetie and Bloom cry so many FUCKING TIMES! I CAN'T COUNT HOW MANY! But I could never do anything about it because they made me promise not to hurt her!!" Scootaloo screamed at Twilight letting everything on her chest out.

With a bitter chuckle her voice hitched as she tried not to cry. "But ohhhh because she came out and was like'I'm sorry my mommy wasn't nice to me and that's why I'm such a selfish and spoiled cunt stain; lets be friends now!' I'm just supposed to let it all go?! Fuck that! FUCK HER! I HATE HER!" Scootaloo seethed, huffed and then before Twilight could say anything she stormed off to Fluttershy's backyard with the animals following close behind her with the gates of the backyard slamming as she left Twilight alone.

Twilight was going to follow her but she figured she would wait for Sunset and Rainbow to come back first. This was a friendship problem that demanded their attention and it demanded it quickly. She may have been stronger than she was many years ago however Twilight was still among the more sensitive of the Rainbooms and hearing Scootaloo scream and curse at her like that? It still hurt her feelings.

Tears fresh in her eyes Twilight stood her ground and waited. "Sunny...Dashie. Please hurry back." Twilight asked as she continued to look at her watch and await their return.

Canterlot City

One great thing about living in such a big city was the fact that it was so big. Skyscrapers, towers, big buildings, small buildings. You name it, the city had it, the streets always freshly paved and easy to drive on. Or in this case? Run on. Two blurs of different color light zipped through out the city crossing paths and trying to tag on another or so it seemed. The red and yellow blur seemed to be avoiding the rainbow color one and upon closer inspection one would see it was Rainbow Dash hot on the hooves of Sunset Shimmer.

"You can't run forever and you know it Sun-Butt!" Rainbow said as she raced through the streets trying to tag Sunset Shimmer and grab her so she could bring her back to Fluttershy's.

"We'll see about that Skittle-Tits!" Sunset shouted behind her as she accelerated forward using her magic to increase her speed however Rainbow was right. She would not be able to keep this up unless she kept making contact with Rainbow to absorb more magic and while everything was in fact happening at super speed? She and Twilight had other errands to run.

'Heh. run. Errands. Nice one Sunset'

"Surprise!" Rainbow shouted as she came out from around a corner hot on Sunset's heels as they raced through a few alley ways.

"Oh crap!" Sunset made a U-Turn and then zipped left and began running up a nearby wall to avoid Rainbow Dash.

"Oh no you don't!" Rainbow smirked as she zipped after Sunset moving with speedy limber grace. All that yoga and those new stretches Fluttershy taught her really paid off!

Sunset and Rainbow would jump, run and parkour up and over the sides of buildings using their great speed to make sure no one normal could see them as anything more than a couple of motion blurs. Each of them trying to tag the other so the game could end, Sunset had tagged Rainbow first when she ass slapped her. So now Rainbow was trying to tag Sunset back so she could bring her back to the house to face her punishment at Twilight's hand which would be much better than any revenge Rainbow herself could inflict and that said a lot for how creatively devious the little geek could be.

'Alright enough toying with her.'

Rainbow thought with a grin as lightning began to crackle around her body and surge within her eyes and across her chromatic hair. Accessing more of her powers rainbow began gaining on Sunset Shimmer effortlessly which made Sunset try and work harder to avoid her but Rainbow was barely having to really push at all. Try as she might Sunset knew the outcome of this and was just seeing how long it would take Rainbow to get bored of chasing her.

Leading the two of them to the edge of the city near Applejack's farm Sunset skidded to a stop and smile as Rainbow stopped as well and saw where they ended up. Grinning she walked over and punched her friend playfully in the arm and chuckled as she playfully slapped her back on the ass.

"Tag. You're it." Rainbow said with a cheeky smile that widened as she said. "Someone's flanks have gotten tighter. Niiiice"

Sunset chortled and then broke into a full blown laugh as she yelped when Rainbow slapped her butt. "Nice to see you too Dashie. C'mon lets grab a couple ciders and head back to Shy's." Sunset put her fingers to her lips and gave a whistle that Applejack would find familiar as she could see the Apple farm working the fields with her younger sister picking trees a couple yards away.

"Sounds good ta me. Yoooo! AJ!" Rainbow called over with a wave and smile to her cowgirl best friend.

Applejack seemingly would tell Apple Bloom to take a break as she slugged a towel around her neck after wiping some sweat off her brow. Walking over with all her southern swag in her step Applejack sported an outfit that was very clearly made by Rarity, a red top that held up the farmers supple breasts and show off her freckled orange skin at the shoulders as well as show off her midriff. A checkered red cloth wrapped into her golden blonde hair that was in a braided ponytail as she bore her brown stetson on her head.

Of all her features though Applejack's most defined trait was most certainly a her legs and her thighs which were wearing a pair of very breathable denim shorts that showed off a decent amount of thigh on the farmer. As her brown cowgirl boots marched over Applejack waved happily at her two friends and ushered them over to a nearby crate of Cinder she'd had out for herself and Apple Bloom to sip on while they worked.

"Howdy y'all; two hard ones?" Applejack said with a tip of her hat.

Sunset gasped playfully. "Why Applejack I have a girlfriend! And so do you! And Dashie too! I know we are all best friends but goodness!"

Deciding to play along Rainbow smirked. "Yeah AJ I mean I know there was that one time we kissed on a dare by in High School but I didn't think you'd brave enough to just ask up front like that. I might be able to convince Shy into a threesome."

Applejack snorted and rolled her eyes as she passed her two friends a cider each. "Fuck ya'll."

"Do we have Rarity's blessing? Cause I was not entirely joking about that threesome idea." Rainbow smirked

"I'd say suck my dick but I know you'd just make a joke out of that too." Applejack chuckled and took a swig of her own cider.

Rainbow laughed and cracked her Cider open and took a sip and exhaled a refreshed. "Ahh. Heheh hey you know I'm Bi and I like 'em BIG. Having a best friend who is more hung than most guys is VERY convenient and NONE of us get to have any fun with it except for the primadonna!" Rainbow said which got a laugh out of Sunset and Applejack.

"Pffffthahahahahahahah o-ohhohoho c-celestia m-my ribs. D-Dash you are such a freak! But in like the best way!" Sunset laughed spitting out some of her cider when Rainbow made that joke. She would be lying if she tried to say the thought of getting fucked by Applejack didn't cross her mind cause it totally had.

"Hehehe w-well too bad. This here-" Applejack proudly grabbed at her crotch and was not ashamed at all to show she had a bulge growing just to make her point. "-proudly belongs to 'the primadonna' as ya so love to call 'er Dashie."

Rainbow smirked and clicked her tongue. "Watch. Mark my words one day I will get Rarity to let me ride that thing."

Applejack rolled her eyes and took another sip of Cider. "What? Shy ain't doin' it for you or something?"

Rainbow scoffed. "Don't be stupid. Shy is and always will be the best sex I had or ever will have. I just wanna see if I can outlast Rarity on something that big that's all." Rainbow said in a tsundre-like manner.

Sunset sipped more of her cider finally having calmed her giggle fit from earlier. "Hehe well if you want my 2 cents? For as generous as Rarity is? I don't think she'd be willing to share that."

Applejack smirked. "Smartest thing said all day sugarcube." Applejack said as she finished downing her cider tossing the bottle in a nearby trashcan.

Sunset and Rainbow did the same and each gave a handshake or high five to the farmer. They each had to get back to their daily doings and for Applejack that meant finishing up the chores and then after that she had a spa date with Rarity in the afternoon to help her unwind and relax.

"See ya AJ" Rainbow said with a two finger salute.

"Happy trails AJ" Sunset said in a teasing southern accent with snide teasing grin.

Applejack kissed her two middle fingers and pointed them up at her two friends in a playful manner as they made to leave and she turned and went back over to the apple fields to continue her apple picking. The two speedsters would begin walking down the trail away from the farm and then suddenly Sunset felt something tug at her heart...no...something deeper than that.

Clutching her hand to her chest she stumbled a bit and Rainbow instantly was at her side to see what was wrong. Sunset felt tears running down her face and put a hand to her cheek to confirm that her eyes were in fact crying. But why? She was perfectly mine a moment ago.

"Hey, hey you alright? Cider wasn't too hard was it?" Rainbow asked with concern as she saw the tears on her friends cheek fall to the ground.

Sunset felt her soul burning, pulling her towards something, someone. She felt a pain in her heart but it wasn't from anything she directly felt. That's when the realization came. "We need to get back to Fluttershy's. RIGHT NOW" Sunset's voice was devoid of any cheer and full of urgency.

Rainbow knew when Sunset cut the bullshit and the teasing that things were serious and she needed to take them serious. "Let's go."

Sunset steadied herself and Rainbow held out her hand. Sunset took her hand and a surge of energy rushed through Sunset as she siphoned off more of Rainbow's magic and once she had what she needed the two of them blasted off leaving a cloud of dust kicked up in their wake. Pushing themselves as fast as they could possibly go they busted through the sound barrier shattering a couple windows of cars and shops that that sped by. It took them all of about 10 seconds to arrive back at Fluttershy's and Rainbow immediately went to check on Fluttershy while Twilight went to see Twilight.

"Sparky!" Sunset came to a skidding halt as she ran up to Twilight who was still standing where she had been after she and Rainbow ran off, crying silently. When she saw Sunset arrive she embraced her and cried into the fiery haired girls chest, her shoulders jumping as she cried softly into her lovers embrace. Sunset held her close and ran a calming hand through the girls hair and rocked her back and forth.

"Shhhh, hey, hey now whats all this about? You were all smiles and nerdy rage when I dashed off. What happened? Did one of the animals hurt you?" Sunset asked curiously and in a gentle tone to get Twilight to tell her what happened.

Twilight had her face buried in Sunset's chest and gave a muffled reply "-aloo"

Sunset raised an eyebrow and pulled back a little and looked at Twilight, seeing her crying face made her heart sink. Wiping her face with her hand and fixing her glasses and held her close enough to where she could speak openly. "Let's try that one more time. What happened Twi?"

Twilight sniffled and was about to give a reply until Rainbow Dash came out along with Fluttershy and the meek girl instantly ran over to Twilight with a concerned expression.

"Oh my goodness Twilight are you alright?! What happened? Are you hurt?" Fluttershy asked with great concern.

Twilight nodded, her more introverted nature coming back. Whenever she was super upset or crying like this she found it hard to give direct coherent answers to things so she would mostly just nod or shake her head yes or no.

Fluttershy knew this about Twilight and she herself had much the same problem. With a calming smile she stepped forward and Sunset allowed her into their space, placing a hand on Twilight's she asked. "Physical or emotional?"

Twilight sniffled, her voice hitched and she choked out. "E-Emotional."

Fluttershy gave a calm and understanding nod. "So that yelling I heard a little while ago was from out here then?"

Sunset's gaze hardened a bit. "Who yelled at you? I'll tear them a new asshole right now." Someone made her Twily cry and she didn't care WHO it was they were either gonna apologize or they'd face her wrath!

Twilight opened her mouth to give an answer but was unsure if she should say. She knew how Sunset could get when she was trying to protect her friends and she imagined it was going to be worse because Twilight was now her girlfriend and that meant she'd be especially touchy about people hurting Twilight's feelings and making her cry. However Twilight also knew if she said nothing that Sunset would just get more upset about Twilight not wanting her to get involved and she knew that something had to be done. Mustering her courage she said. "S-Scootaloo."

Rainbow reeled in shock. "Scoots? What did she say?"

Twilight sniffled and prepared to recount the story. "I-I was talking to her about how things have been lately. I brought up how I heard from Rarity that Diamond Tiara and Sweetie Belle are dating and-"

"Diamond and Sweetie are dating?" Sunset asked reeling from the shock of that news. 'Huh. Guess my hunch was right...wait now isn't the time for that!'

Twilight sighed and nodded. "Yes. They are. And Scootaloo isn't happy about it at all. She called Diamond Tiara a lot of mean and slanderous things and stormed off into the backyard and hasn't come back since. S-She didn't say anything mean or hurtful about me at all so don't yell at her for that but it's just...I was just trying to be nice and supportive." A few tears came again and Sunset hugged her close and patted her back.

"Shhh, it's alright Twi. You were a BIG help because now we know what we have to do. Don't we girls?" Sunset looked at Rainbow and at Fluttershy with a serious look but they both got the message loud and clear.

Rainbow nodded and turned to go to the backyard. "I'll go talk with Scoots. She knows better than to bad mouth people like that when they are trying to change and I've had it up to hear with her unhealthy hate for that girl. Yeah she used to be horrible but she isn't like that anymore and really her mother is a big part of all that. So this all ends TODAY" Rainbow sighed and shook her head as she went to the backyard to find Scootaloo.

"I'll call Rarity. Hopefully she isn't busy and can bring Sweetie." Fluttershy went inside and ushered Twilight and Sunset to follow her. As they did follow Spike came running out of the house sensing that his owner was in distress.

Twilight would pick Spike up and cuddle her oldest friend close, finding much comfort in his soft fur as well as Sunset's touch. "Thank you. All of you" Twilight said with a sniffle as she walked in the house.

"It's what friends are for Twilight. Make yourself at home. I'll put on some tea and call Rarity." Fluttershy said as she let them sit on the couch as she went into the kitchen to prepare tea and make a phone call.

"It'll be alright Twi. We'll get through this little bump and you'll be all smiles when its over. I pinkie promise." Sunset said making the promise to Twilight and sealing it with a kiss on the lips as she cuddled her girlfriend in a loving embrace and let her cry.

Twilight said nothing as Sunset kissed her. She simply let it happen, collapsed into Sunset and cried not just because she was still reeling from the verbal lashing Scootaloo gave but also because Sunset was just so loving and nurturing that she couldn't help but cry because she knew she could bare on her emotions on Sunset and that Sunset would accept and empathize with them. It was why she loved her so.

'She completes me.'
