Rarity's Problem
Chapter 2: The Story Unfolds Well Sort of
Previous Chapter Next ChapterA/N: Sorry about the first chapter being too short! I'll try to make this one up for the first chapter.
Disclaimer: I do not own MLP: FiM. Lauren Faust does. Oh, and I don't own the red scissors. Rarity does.
Fluttershy watched the blue mare as she flew. Fluttershy was close behind the rainbow-maned mare, and her own butter-yellow wings ached from flying already. The night grew silent, the stars twinkling and shining bright with the dark night as a backdrop for such majesty. Fluttershy has been reminded of the white unicorn and what had happened earlier when it was day. Fluttershy took some bitter emotions to the interruption of her feeding her precious little rabbit Angel, but nonetheess, had reluculantly met up with Rarity.
Flashback
The sun was shining brightly, highlighting that purple curl in the unicorn's vivacious hair. Her snow-white horn glowed a bright blue and so did a pair of bright red scissors on the table near her. Fluttershy had wondered why she hadn't just reached a hoove out and grabbed the scissors. Maybe it was her habit of.. Fluttershy instantly dismissed the thought. The scissors then floated under the unicorn's control as she spoke. "Fluttershy, dear, would you be a darling and meet me here at 12 A.M. sharp in the night? Oh, and bring Rainbowdash with you." Fluttershy had a prone to asking why about things. Maybe it was just her personality or simply a bad habit going on since she was born. She asked anyway, "...Why?"
Rarity's eyes met with Fluttershy's, and Rarity's were framed by square designer glasses as Fluttershy noted. A dust of rosy pink blush scattered onto Rarity's features and she looked away, biting her lip. ''It's.. It's just a.. Oh, just meet me here and I'll tell you, okay darling?" Fluttershy thought about asking again, about pressing it on, but she didn't want to disturb her own friend. Fluttershy nodded, rather briskly like she had somewhere else to go rather than set up a secret meeting with Rarity. "O..Okay." Her usual tone was set, quiet and shy with a hint of innocence.
Rarity nodded and floated up a ruler with her magic. ''You may go now, Fluttershy, dear." Fluttershy gave a nod and walked out rather slowly, slower than she was intended to do. She was engulfed in her own thoughts until she bumped into a light blue mare.
"Oh, I-I'm t-terribly sorry.." Fluttershy looked up towards the light blue mare. She was taller, considering Fluttershy was practicaly crouching in fear of the mare yelling at her. Rosy eyes met Fluttershy's green ones and Fluttershy's face instantly gave a soft smile. "R-Rainbowdash!" Fluttershy squealed, a bit of stuttering from her usual personality.
"'Sup Fluttershy?"
The voice was determined, and strong. It sounded like a middle-aged mare, tainted with a few cracks in the voice here and there. Rainbowdash waited for a reply for what seemed like eternity when Fluttershy finally spoke.
"Um.. Rarity wants us t-to meet her at T-twelve A.M. sharp in the n-night." Rainbow gave a soft chuckle. "For a race?" Fluttershy shook her head. "A Duel?" Rainbow asked, slightly confused. "No... she wants us to meet her... f-for something.."
"Oh." Dissapointment showed in Rainbow's voice, but she continued. "Sure!" Fluttershy smiled.
_Back to Reality-ish but with Ponies
Fluttershy had not noticed they were at Rarity's Boutique already and had flew straight into the roof of the shop, causing her to fall with a thud to the ground. A soft 'Ow' escaped from her lips just then. Rainbow gave a soft chuckle and walked towards the door, knocking once on it before a white unicorn briskly opened the door. "Hurry in now, dears!" She whispered, thinking somepony might hear them.
The two mares walked in and Rarity shot her gaze from side to side nervously before she shut the door. The three mares stood alone in silence before Rarity spoke.
"The reason I asked for you both to come is..."
A/N: Cliffhanger! 8D
You must hate me now. I'm sorry. I just had to.
The next chapter will be up most likely tomorrow and if not, it'll be up in a day or three.
(My god this was a bit short. Sorry!)
