The Ditzy to the Doo

Cutie High School

Underwater Wonder

All 6 had finished putting on their swim suits and were in the pool. Applejack waited until everyone was in the pool before she did a cartwheel and front flipped into the swimming pool. "Woah! Cool one AJ!" Rainbow Dash praised her blonde haired friend as she blushed a little. "Thanks for hooking us all up, Twilight!" Quickly Applejack winked at Rainbow Dash. Her rainbow haired friend jumped into the air as Applejack put her hands up. Like lightning Rainbow Dash grabbed Applejack's hands and flung herself over her, making her blonde haired friend fling into the air and land back in the water along with Rainbow Dash.

Twilight and the others' jaws dropped. "How did you...what?!" Pinkie Pie applauded the two as they high fived each other.

"Who wants to play underwater tag?" Twilight questioned all of her friends while they cheered 'yes!' "Pony, pony, who's a silly pony. The silly pony is..." She pointed at each individual person, chanting the tune that decides who is going to tag people. "Applejack! That means you're not it." Applejack cheered before she hung on Rainbow Dash's arm. "Pony, pony, who's a silly pony. The silly pony is..." Yet again Twilight was pointing at everyone. "Rarity!" Rainbow Dash sighed as Fluttershy swam next to Pinkie Pie. "Pony, pony, who's a silly pony. The silly pony is Twilight Sparkle! Also known as me." Twilight repeated the chant until the game was decided. Pinkie Pie was going to tag people. "Remember, if you get tug that means you have to stand in the same spot until someone touches you. Pinkie Pie, no guarding!"

"Oh, come on! Why do I have to be it?" Pinkie Pie pouted as she swum around in the pool attempting to tag her friends. Eventually she got Rarity. "I got Rarity, I got Rarity! Nyeh nyeh nyeh nyeh!" Pinkie Pie cheered as she continued to swim around her friends like a shark.

"This is boring..." Rainbow Dash complained as Applejack joined in. "Can we play something else?" They didn't realise it was time for their lessons to begin again. The only one that saw it was Twilight for she had been waiting. All she had wanted to do was please her friends, she seemed to achieve that. Well, apart from the game of tag.

"Guys! It's lesson time!" Twilight alerted her friends. They quickly scurried out of the pool, into the changing rooms and put their clothes back on after drying themselves with the towels they were given. "Next time we'll bring our own things. I think for now we'll stick with the mini ponds in the main entrance." The group of six ran downstairs until they reached their destinations. When they reached the bottom floor they saw the students leaving.

Twilight went straight to reception and asked "Excuse me, why is everyone leaving?" The lady glared at Twilight as if she was her worst enemy.

"School's over. It's 12 'o clock right now. You should have left an hour ago." She sounded as if she hated everyone she met, and her eyes were grey. The group just moved a long and ran out the doors. When they walked outside the group saw the blonde haired girl dressed in grey again.

"She looks...surprisingly upset." Remarked Twilight. "Let me go see her." Rainbow Dash and Applejack stayed behind so that Rainbow could put her roller blades back on. "Excuse me, miss?" The girl turned around and looked at Twilight who stood there, letting her purple hair blow in the wind. Twilight noticed one of her eyes was looking in a different direction to the other. "Are you okay?"

The girl sniffed, tears rolling down her cheeks. "You're just going to make fun of me, aren't you!" She closed her eyes as tears fell to the ground. Her dress was soaked with tears and her bag was filled with loose letters, a pencil case and a notepad. "It's hard to live like this. Everyone making fun of you whenever you open your eyes! I bet you'll just...say i'm stupid...something like that!" Twilight could barely understand what the girl was saying from all the crying that was overlapping her speech.

"No, i'm not going to make fun of you. You looked a little upset so I came to see what was wrong. I'm Twilight Sparkle, pleasure to meet you." To the girl Twilight seemed a little bit forward. Come on, Ditzy. You've got to stop doubting people, you need to have some courage! The girl thought to herself and instantly stopped crying. She opened her eyes and looked at Twilight. Well, she attempted to.

"I-I'm Ditzy Doo. Most people call me Derpy Hooves. They seem to think I walk like a pony and- Actually, I don't want to talk about that. So, you were wondering if I was upset?" Ditzy Doo smiled shyly at Twilight while Fluttershy stared from behind the two.

"Well, yes. I saw you this morning. All I wanted to tell you was that your dress looks nice on you." Twilight pulled her bag back onto her shoulder because it was slipping. Ditzy Doo giggled a little bit.

"Well, my little sister made it. She gave it to me for my birthday. Her name's Dinky Doo. Such a sweet heart, i'll be honest." Ditzy Doo blushed a little bit. She was very proud to have such a talented little sister. "Sorry for trying to avoid you this morning, Twilight Sparkle."

"Oh, it's okay. And most of my friends just call me Twilight." She reached out for a handshake as Ditzy shyly took it. "Why don't you walk home with me and my friends? I'm sure they'll like you. It's always nice to meet new people." Twilight smiled kindly at her new friend as they walked side by side while the others followed. Rainbow Dash and Applejack raced ahead. "We were all going to go to my house. You want to come?"

"Oh, yes please, if it's not too much trouble." Fluttershy was walking next to Ditzy, trying to get her attention.

Eventually she said "Umm..excuse me...miss..." Ditzy looked at Fluttershy and smiled. "What...What's your name?" Fluttershy blushed a little. She didn't want to be rude so told Ditzy Doo her name. Ditzy told Fluttershy hers and began talking to her. "My hobbies? Oh...umm...looking after animals I suppose. They're lovely creatures."

"I agree, but my hobby is blowing bubbles. I spend hour after hour trying to make the perfect sphere. Sometimes I daydream about being inside a bubble and wandering around the world. One day I hope to entertain people with my bubbles and let them ride inside them. I just need to figure out how..." Ditzy started looking into the sky and dreaming. "I love bubbles..."
