As the Alicorn pondered a little longer, she noticed Discord whom seemed to attempting to sneak his way out of the door. This act was promptly responded to with Twilight grabbing the draconequus by the tail with her magic.

“Not so fast. You've known that something has been wrong with Fluttershy for awhile haven't you?” Twilight inquired with a piercing stare at the draconequus.

“Why, I haven't the slightest idea of what you're talking about princess.” Discord replied with an innocent expression. “Now if you'll excuse me, I do believe you have a friend to be checking on don't you?” Discord added before he disappeared in a flash of magic.

“As much as Ah hate to admit it, the varmints right. Somepony needs to check on Fluttershy and make sure she's alright.” Applejack remarked and began trotting towards the front door.

“Hang on A-J. I'll go with you.” Rainbow Dash said suddenly as she hovered a crossed the room and caught up with the farm pony.

“We'll go too!” Rarity added as Twilight, and Pinkie walked along side her. The two unicorn's however recoiled as the light from the outside hit their eyes.

“No offense you two, but a hang-over from mah hard cider is nothin to sneeze at. Ah reckon y'all be unable to even look at a book straight for a good three to four hours.” Applejack remarked looking at the two unicorns as Pinkie Pie trotted past them casually.

“Take it easy for a bit and don't worry, we'll be sure to check on Fluttershy and make sure she's Okie-Doki-Loki!” Pinkie Pie added just before she closed the door behind them.

An awkward silence ensued between the two unicorns for a time until Twilight spoke up. “Well, I guess we better start researching on what's going on with Fluttershy.” she said casually as she levitated a few health books over to her and opened one.

“But Twilight, you heard what Applejack said, we most likely won't even be able to read a book properly.” Rarity remarked which caused Twilight to turn and look at the white mare.

“Yeah right, as if anything could...!” Twilight began to say only to attempt to read the first few words out of her health book and realize her vision caused the words to seem to swim a cross the pages making them unreadable.

The Alicorn's face became livid as her right temple pulsed...

The princess's voice roared at the top of her lungs which seemed to shake the library once more. Yet another lone pony happened to be walking past at this precise moment which caused them to look on in shock and wonder as the library shook violently and decided they would go investigate.

The lone pony simply stared slack-jawed as a bead of sweat dripped down one side of their head as they stared at Rarity and Twilight whom now lay on top of one another staring back at the pony with pale expressions on their faces as the book Twilight was attempting to read earlier was laying a few feet away.

“Ah, lesbian love, nothing like it.” The pony remarked with a smirk.

In the next moment, the pony's face was impacted by a white and purple hind hoof as the two bucked the stallion in unison.

-------------------------------------

“Ah know we should be checkin' on Fluttershy but since Pinkie Pie volunteered, Ah don't really think it's necessary for all of us to go and check on her. Sides, if somethin' is really wrong with her, Pinkie Pie would let us know in a hoof-beat.” Applejack remarked as she took a swig of her cider and tossed it to Rainbow Dash whom caught it.

The cyan blue Pegasus took a large swig of the cider before tossing it back to the farm pony.“Yeah, you got a point there A-J.” Rainbow Dash replied as Applejack took another swig before tossing it back to her.

“So how ya like this batch of mine? It's been maturin since Granny Smith was a filly accordin to her.” Applejack remarked with a smirk as the Pegasus took another large swig of the drink and tossed it back to Rainbow Dash.

“Pssh, I'm not even buzzed.” Rainbow Dash lied as a drunken blush formed on her face while she tossed the bottle back to the farm mare.

“Teh, ya is lyin through yer teeth.” Applejack replied with a smirk as she went to take a swig only to realize the bottle was now empty. “Consarn it! Ya drank most of it ya guzzler!” Applejack exclaimed as she pointed a drunken hoof at the cyan blue Pegasus.

“Did not! You're the one who drank most of it! I barely got half the bottle!” Rainbow Dash retorted pointing a drunken hoof back at the farm pony.

“Oh that's rich! Ah have ya know that Ah make sure to drink mah cider in moderation! Unlike y'all who drink the stuff like it's this year's new hot stallion spunk!” Applejack retorted angrily.

“Y-You just called me a whore didn't ya?!” Rainbow Dash shouted as she glared at the farm pony.

“Nah, cause a whore gets paid to screw a stallion.” Applejack retorted as she looked away from the drunken Pegasus with a coy smirk.

The next thing to happen happened almost instantaneously as Rainbow Dash tackled the farm pony haphazardly sending the two rolling along the farm in a comical fashion and ending up with Rainbow Dash on top of the farm pony. “Take... that... back!” Rainbow Dash seethed only to realize the farm pony had tears in her eyes.

“Sorry Dashie, Ah didn't mean to...” Applejack replied barely able to hold back the tears until she trailed off and began to cry as she lay under the cyan blue Pegasus.

Rainbow Dash's anger melted away in an instant upon seeing her friend's distraught state, backed off her, and sat next to her. “Forget it. You're not too far off anyways.” She remarked and sighed.

“Don't say that about yourself, Dashie! So what if ya like to live life a little more than the rest of us! We're all ponies here. It's not like yer doin' anythin' wrong.” Applejack said as she sat up, repositioned herself, and sat on her rump next to the Pegasus.

An awkward silence ensued between the two mares for a time until Applejack sighed aloud which caused Rainbow Dash to look at her. “Ever since Ah first saw ya, yer all Ah ever thought about.” The farm mare said softly as soft tears streaked down her cheeks.

“Applejack...” Rainbow Dash said trailing off as she stared at the farm in shock of her words.

“Ah... Ah've tried to tell ya so many times how Ah really felt but the words would never come. Then that game of truth or dare started and Pinkie Pie dared ya to kiss me. It was like a dream come true for me. It was at that moment Ah decided that Ah would show ya mah true feelins but then...” Applejack said trailing off as her tears began to stream from her eyes as if somepony had left the faucet running in them. She then turned her head away from the cyan blue Pegasus as if to hide her silent sobs from the mare.

“Ya know, I'm pretty drunk right now. So I'm probably not thinking straight. If you were to try to kiss me, I'm not so sure I'd resist.” Rainbow Dash remarked aloud with a smirk at which point the farm mare's eyes snapped wide as she snapped her gaze at Rainbow Dash, her tears seemingly flailing in the wind as she turned to look at her.

“Don't be messin with me ya fool!” Applejack exclaimed angrily though Rainbow Dash remained calm.

“Well, if you won't...” Rainbow Dash remarked as she trailed off, stood up, took a few clumsy steps, and leaned down so that her face was mere inches from the farm pony's tear-stained face.

The farm pony's eyes snapped wide as tears continued to flow from them as Rainbow Dash's lips connected with hers...

--------------------------------------------------

“Fluttershy? You here?” Pinkie Pie asked curiously as she opened the door to the Pegasus's cottage and stepped inside. A soft sobbing could be heard coming from upstairs which the party mare followed until she opened the door to Fluttershy's bedroom and laid eyes upon the sobbing, quivering, yellow mass known as Fluttershy on her bed.

“Hey, what's with the long face?” Pinkie Pie asked as she walked over to Fluttershy and placed a hoof on the mare's shoulder.

A soft wining came from within the yellow mass though Pinkie Pie couldn't make out a word of it. “You're going to have to speak up or I can't hear you. You silly filly!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed with a wide smile despite Fluttershy's current state almost making her cry herself. She hated seeing her friends sad and yet for all her party knowledge, she was at a loss for how to make this sobbing mare smile.

“I was so angry... but-but I don't know why! Normally I handle Discord's stunts calmly but for some reason... I became so angry all the sudden and I...” Fluttershy quivered as she raised her head to look at the pink puffy maned mare.

“So you lost your temper, no need to beat yourself up over it! If I had to deal with that meanie pants Discord on a daily bases, I would probably lose it in less than a day! But it took you a full year and a half to finally get really mad at him. I don't know about you but that just goes to show how kind-hearted you really are.” Pinkie Pie said with a supportive smile.

“R-Really?” Fluttershy squeaked as a weak smile formed on her saddened expression.

“Of course! And wow did you let him have it when you finally did lose your temper!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed with a wide smile only for the yellow Pegasus's smile to fade and begin to sob anew.

Upon seeing this, a sweat-drop seemed to streak down the pink mare's face as her smile became a mixture of guilt and panic. “I didn't mean that! What I meant to say is that you have a really strong slap! No wait! I mean, you're really cool when your angry! No wait, I mean....um...uh... Oh I know!” The party mare exclaimed as she waved her front hooves seemingly in all directions in a comical yet panicked manner until she gabbed the yellow Pegasus by the hoof and dragged her a crossed the room much to the shock of Fluttershy whose tear-filled eyes snapped wide in shock and let out a startled squeak as she went flying behind the pink mare as she dragged her a crossed the room and landed on the floor as Pinkie Pie came to an abrupt halt.

“I know what will turn that frown upside down!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed as she suddenly pulled a miniature stage out of no where and placed it in front of Fluttershy. “Stand up comedy!” Pinkie Pie exclaimed as she held a microphone in her front hooves standing on her hind hooves with a stool behind her.

“It's okay, Pinkie. I'm feeling better now.” Fluttershy managed to utter out between sniffles. To be honest, the pink mare's antics thus far were helping her feel a little better.

“Nonsense! I'll make you laugh in no time!” Pinkie Pie boasted and looked as if she was deep in thought until her eyes lit up. “Okay so this Pegasus and Unicorn walk into a bar...” Pinkie Pie began only for her microphone to suddenly turn into a hoof with a pie in it which promptly slammed the contents into her face with a “splat!”.

Pinkie Pie suddenly shook her head and she wiped the contents of the whipped cream pie off her face and looked about herself in genuine confusion. It was then that the pink mare took a step forward only to slip on a banana peel and fall onto her rump. “What in Luna's name is going on here?!” The party mare blurted out in confusion only to realize Fluttershy was holding her sides laughing hard.

“Th-That's enough Discord. I'm in a better mood now I think.” Fluttershy managed to say as her laughter subsided.

“Oh? Well that's good to know.” Pinkie Pie's stool suddenly said which caused the pink mare to jump back in shock at first until it suddenly changed to reveal Discord in a flash of magic. “Can't have you sitting in your room all day crying, now can we? That's just boring.” The draconequus remarked with his usual smirking expression.

-----------------------------------------

Twilight had managed to read through several books by now. Each book she had finished in a neat stack next to her. “Ah-ha!” Twilight exclaimed as if she had an epiphany.

“What is it Twilight? Did you find out what's wrong with Fluttershy?” Rarity asked curiously.

“According to my studies, Fluttershy must be suffering from a large dose of poison joke!” The Alicorn exclaimed triumphantly in her studies.

“And what makes you think this?” Rarity deadpanned looking completely unconvinced.

“The only other symptoms that add up are pregnancy but come on, as if Fluttershy could get pregnant. It's not as if she's been...sexually...active...” Twilight began to say confidently only for her sentence to slow into a seemingly stunned state.

Both mares looked at each other now as yet another awkward silence ensued between the two.

That is, until both mares burst out laughing.

“Oh that's a good one Twilight! Discord knocking up Fluttershy! As if that's possible!” Rarity exclaimed between laughs.

“I know right! Just because his body is made from a dragon,goat,deer,bat,lion, and horse doesn't mean he can...” Twilight began to say between laughs until both mare's laughter slowed to a halt.

“You don't think that his, well, penis could be a stallion's... Do you?” Rarity asked nervously.

“How the heck should I know? The only mare among us whose seen it much less bucked it has been Fluttershy.” Twilight replied candidly and sighed. “Well there's only one way to find out!” She added, once more showing off her confident expression.

“And how pray tell do we find this out?” Rarity inquired curiously.

“We get Fluttershy to have sex with Discord in front of us!” Twilight exclaimed much to the beat red blush now radiating from the white unicorn's face.

“Have you lost your mind, Twilight Sparkle?! Not only is it unladylike for us to watch such a private act take place but do you really think Fluttershy would do something like that with other ponies watching?” Rarity asked with a look of disapproval towards the Alicorn.

“Good point. We'll have to be stealthy about it then.” Twilight remarked with a thoughtful expression while Rarity seemed to slide behind the mare with a look of annoyance on her face as her temple pulsed.

“That's not what I meant!” The white unicorn muttered.

“To Fluttershy's house!” Twilight exclaimed as she pointed a hoof towards the door, ran towards it, opened it, and ran into Ponyville towards the yellow Pegasus's house.

Meanwhile, Rarity simply stood in place with a dreading expression on her face as she sighed heavily.
