Ponyville Confidential: The Real Truth
Chapter 2: Sweetie Belle
Previous Chapter Next ChapterAfter nearly a year of waiting, here's chapter 2!
Sorry I didn't get to put this up and all. Reasons why:
1. Work, family, other stories, being busy.
2. I kinda forgot about this story since I've been working on the other stuff.
3. I had no idea how to start and write Sweetie Belle's chapter but thanks to Park Ryder (thanks hon'!), we were able to get this done.
Now I know this isn't perfect but we did the best we could. I know there are repeated words and stuff but it's the best I could write it. So we hope you like this.
And funny thing, this chapter only took a day to write. XD
Next Chapter: Scootaloo hates Rainbow Dash?!
Until next time, enjoy!
I don't own My Little Pony or the characters.
Chapter 2: A Sister's Confession
After receiving a harsh scolding from Applebloom's older brother, Sweetie Belle ran all the way back to Carousel Boutique in sadness. Sweetie belle trotted up to her room and began to cry on her bed. Her older sister, Rarity, was out doing errands at the time, so Sweetie Belle had no problem going and running into her.
"Everybody hates me!" she said as she cried, "Even my own sister hates me..."
Before Sweetie and her friends tried to apologize to the other ponies and tried to quit the paper, Rarity found out that she read her diary without permission for their stories and had gotten on to Sweetie for doing so for the sake of earning a cutie mark. Though not as harsh as the other ponies, the little filly still felt guilty for doing this to her beloved sister.
A few minutes later, Rarity comes home and sees the door to her boutique open, "Huh? Why is this opened?"
Rarity goes inside, looks around, and stops when she hears somepony crying, "Hello? Hello! Is somepony in there?"
She follows the sound, goes to Sweetie Belle's room, and sees her packing her things while in tears.
"Sweetie Belle?" Rarity asked as she approached her sister, "Sweetie Belle, what are you doing?"
"I'm leaving." Sweetie said without turning her head.
"Leaving?" the older unicorn was shocked, "To where?"
"I don't know." the filly shrugged, "Maybe Manehatten or Canterlot."
Rarity felt her eyes pop out as her jaw dropped, "What?! Why?!"
"Because everypony hates me."
"What?"
"Ever since the whole gabby gums mess, everypony hate us and is avoiding us. So, I think it's better that we leave Ponyville." Sweetie Belle said as she threw her bag on her back.
"But-But...you can't just leave!" Rarity tried to reason with her.
"Watch me." Sweetie Belle started to trot out of the room with her stuff.
"Sweetie Belle, no!" Rarity exclaimed as she followed her.
"But this is what you and everypony wanted! For me and my friends to go away and that's what we are doing!" Sweetie snapped and glared.
"No, that's not true!" she shook her head.
"Yes it is!" Sweetie Belle yelled in tears, "Look I'm sorry I read your diary and said all that stuff, but if everypony is going to ignore us and hate us, then what's the point in staying here?! I'm going and taking my friends with me! Goodbye!"
She runs out of the boutique with Rarity in hot pursuit, " Sweetie Belle, come back!" she called out.
"Leave me alone!" Sweetie Belle didn't listen and kept running.
Suddenly, Sweetie Belle felt a magic aura around her and she found herself frozen in place, "What the?" she narrowed her eyes to see Rarity using her horn to freeze her, "Rarity, let me go!"
"I refuse!" the unicorn said sternly.
"Just let me go or I'll hate you forever!" now even though she never meant it, Sweetie Belle wanted to get away from Ponyville at all costs.
"I still love you and need you!" Rarity said with tears forming in her eyes.
"...What?" the little filly didn't expect to hear that after everything that's happened.
Rarity releases her magic and tears up, "I-I'm sorry!"
"Y-You are?" Sweetie turned around to face her sister.
Rarity nods as the tears start to fall, "But I thought you hated me and wanted me to leave Ponyville?" Sweetie asked.
"Sweetie Belle, I would never want you to leave." Rarity wiped her tears with her hoof, "Your my sister and even though what you did was wrong, I would never hate you."
"It's not our fault! Diamond Tiara was-" She stopped herself before she could rat out Diamond Tiara.
"Diamond Tiara?" Rarity raised her eyebrow, "What about her?"
Sweetie Belle took a step back, "I can't tell you! If she finds out..."
"Sweetie Belle, you have to tell me what's going on so I can help you." she approached the filly with concern.
"But that means I'll be a tattle tale!" Sweetie Belle exclaimed in a panic.
"There's a difference between snitching and telling somepony what's wrong." the older unicorn explained.
"There is?"
"Yes." Rarity nodded, "And if you tell me what she did, I promise to help you. You just have to trust me."
Sweetie Belle realized that her big sister was right and she can't just run away from her problems. Taking a deep breath, she began to tell the truth, "Well okay...Diamond Tiara is the head editor of the school newspaper. She's blackmailing me, Scootaloo and Apple Bloom to write mean stories about ponies."
Rarity was shocked and appalled by this, "What?! Why would she do that?!"
"Because she believed that's what ponies want and that's juicy stories." Sweetie added as she looked down.
"But why didn't you tell me this sooner?" she asked.
"I tried but you didn't listen because you were angry and told me to go away." It hurt Sweetie deeply when her older sister didn't listened about what really happened.
Rarity opened her mouth to say something but when she remembered the awful words she said to Sweetie Belle, she looked down in regret.
"And if we don't get a story by tomorrow, she will put embarrassing photos of us." Sweetie added sadly.
"Photos?"
"Yeah. One is me falling in the mud and two with Scootloo and Apple Bloom baby photos."
"That's awful!" said Rarity, "How in Equestria did she get a hold of them?"
"Some pony took the photos." Sweetie answered.
The Rarity thought of something else, " Does Cheerilee know?"
The filly shook her head as tears started to fill her eyes again, "No. Nopony does. We tried to tell them but they didn't listen."
"Oh Sweetie Belle..." Rarity hugged her sister close as she started to cry, "There there, it's alright."
"I don't know what to do." Sweetie Belle cried as Rarity rubbed her back.
"I'm gonna help you." Rarity said with determination.
"You are?" she looked up with tear-stained eyes.
"Of course!" Rarity smiled and used her hoof to wipe her sisters eyes, "You're my sister and I'll always be here for you. And I'm truly sorry for the way I treated you."
"I'm sorry, too." Sweetie looked down.
"It's okay, darling." The two sisters smile and hugged each other tight as a sign of forgiveness.
After a moment, the two pulled away and Sweetie Belle calms down before looking at her sister again, "What should we do now?"
"Let's go talk to Twilight about this." Rarity answered before starting towards the library.
"But, she and spike banned me and my friends from her library." she said with worry, "They won't listen to us."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." she patted her sister on the head.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
Sweetie Belle smiled and hugged her sister for the third time today, "Thanks sis'."
"No problem." Rarity, happily, returned the favor before they headed to Twilight's home.
Now that Sweetie Belle and Rarity are taken care of, the only one left is Scootaloo. But, now that she feels betrayed by her idol, Rainbow Dash, can she trust anypony again? And will Diamond Tiara will be found out of her true motives?
