Part two

Final chapter of “New Discoveries”

Rain continued to pour as the train makes its stop at the Canterlot station. The sun had already risen, but the rain had not stopped. A few storms were missed, so this one was planned to be much longer than usual. A still very tired Rarity awakes from the train ride. Usually she would be up in a fuss about morning looks and such, but she’s on a mission, and nothing else matters. She quickly gets off the train, and cowers from the rain. The one logical place that Twilight would be is her old room from when she used to live here, so Rarity’s first reaction is to head there. She starts her way to the castle, before she notices that all the ponies around were staring at her. She stopped and looked down into a puddle. She nearly scared herself half to death when she saw her reflection in the puddle. She looked horrid, her mane was all tattered and dirty, parts of her uncovered coat was splotched with mud, and she was pretty sure she smelled pretty bad as well. No wonder she was getting weird looks, since Canterlot is a city for high class, well kept ponies. The everyday pony of Canterlot doesn’t see a sight like this, so it’s quite the upset for them. Regardless of her usual high kept self, she gives up caring about what every pony else thinks, and continues on her way. She’s a mare on a mission, and will be damned if she doesn’t finish that mission. Thoughts rush through her mind as she continues to make her to where Twilight is staying.

Finally to the door of her room, she knocks as fast and loud as she can. To her avail, there is no answer. She tries again, but still no answer. She begins to break down into tears, curling up into a ball in front of her Twilights door.

“Rarity?” She hears. “Oh Celestia… Rarity!”

She looks up to see Twilight running towards her. She instantly jumps up and runs towards her, jumping right into her hoofs, still crying.

“Rarity, what’s going on, are you okay!” Twilight asks

Rarity just continues to sob, not able to make out anything understandable.

“Come on, let’s get you inside and cleaned up”.

Rarity can hear the sound of a bath running in the background, but all she can hear is her own voices in her head.

Just tell her

“Rarity?”

“Hm? Oh, what’s that Twilight?”

“You can go bathe now”

“Thank you Twilight”

Instead of getting up and going to take a bath, the white mare just sits there thinking about Twilight.

“Um, are you okay?” Twilight asks.

A single tear runs down Rarity’s cheek again, as if she was about to cry. Instead she breaks out in a huge smile and lunges towards Twilight.

“I love you Twilight, more than anything in the entire world. I want to be with you forever. I want to wake up next to you every morning and never want to let you go. I’m so sorry for everything; I just want to be yours again!”

Twilight stands there stunned. She’s left with both confused and happy feelings.

“I forgive you for everything Rarity. I love you too, and that’s all I want.”

Rarity breaks the hug and backs away. “I look like such a mess, and now I got you all dirty”.

“It’s fine really. Besides, I’ll just run a new bath after you’re done.”

With that, Rarity grinned a bit.

“Come with me dear” Rarity says, grabbing a hold of Twilights hoof and brining her into the bathroom.

“What are doing?” Twilight asks.

“I think it’s time I teach you something.

“Oh, what’s that?”

“This is a little something called make up sex.”


“Come on Rarity, we’re going to be late!” Twilight yelled from the bottom on the stairs.

“Coming!”

Rarity walks down the libraries stairs with a radiant glow, dropping the jaws of Twilight.

“You always look so amazing”

“It’s nothing really”

“Ready for the picnic?” Twi asks.

“All ready. Shall we?”
The two head out to the picnic they had planned once they got back from Canterlot. Rarity had stayed with Twilight an entire week, both exploring each other intimately and emotionally since they had some time to themselves.

“Howdy gals!” A familiar voice shoots through Rarity’s ears.

“Hello Applejack, how are you?” She asked

“Ahm great, It’s so nice to get everyone together again”.

“It sure is” Twilight cuts in. “So; shall we start this thing then?”

A flash of rainbow zooms by, landing in a tree right beside the blanket.

“Heh, sorry I’m late guys, I was just-“

“We know!” shouted all but Rarity and Twilight.

“Know what?” asked Twilight.

“Well, Rainbow has a mare friend now.” Applejack explained.

“It’s Cheerilee right?” Rarity butt in.

“How did you?” Applejack gave her a look.

“It’s fine, really. I love Twilight, and nothing’s going to change that. Whatever those two want to do, it’s fine by me.”

Rainbow swoops down and lands in front of Rarity. “So you’re okay with that then?”

“Yes dear, everything’s fine. Don’t worry about it”.

The 6 ponies go about their picnic, eating, laughing, just having a grand ol’ time. Though, one pony didn’t seem to be having as much fun as the rest. The work mare gets up and walks over to the tree, and lays down beside it so she doesn’t bother anypony with her own thoughts. Twilight notices this, and heads over to see what’s wrong.

“Um, Applejack? Are you okay?”

“Huh? Oh, yeah I’m fine”.

“Something’s wrong” Twilight continued to push.

“I don’t know. Seeing everypony falling in love sorta makes me-“

“Miss Soarin?” Twilight cut in.

“Yeah, that.” Aj frowned.
“Well, what if I told you he’s coming here. Right now.”

“You did what?”

“Before Rarity and I left Canterlot, we stopped by to see Soarin. He misses you Aj, so I told him to come.”

Right on cue, a shadow fills applejacks eye, and her old colt friend lands in front of her.

“Hey there Aj.”

She stands there stunned, not knowing what to do. She closes her eyes then opens them again, a few tears trickling down her face. She lunges at him and holds him tight.

Author notes: Sorry for the very short last chapter, but something needed to be put out. I just want to take this time to thank all of you that have read, and waiting (a reaaaal long time) for each chapter to come out. It was a long ride doing all of this for me, and someday I wish to write more. For the mean time, I leave you off with a cliff hanger cause I’m mean like that. If I do end up continuing to write, it will be for Magic, Love, War; so look out for that!

Thanks guys/gals!
