Suddenly Sisters: The Trilogy
Chapter 5: New Beginnings Part 5 - Bonding with Friends
Previous Chapter Next Chapter"So Twilight is still figuring things out for when you tell your parents huh?" Applejack said.
"Yeah. That's going to be a thing still. To be honest, I'm more then happy not confronting them if only because I'd rather not stir up any drama with my sister's family." Starlight said as she helped Applejack; Rainbow Dash was there too.
"I suppose in the end it does make sense for you two to be sisters. I mean, you were able to remove cutie marks and travel through time. I know you don't like being reminded of that stuff, but that kind of stuff takes extreme skill in magic. And Twilight's already pretty powerful." Rainbow Dash said.
"I guess that's a good point. Especially with how many times she fought with me to stop me from continuing to change history." Starlight said. "We were pretty evenly matched." She added.
"Twilight's an Alicorn and you were evenly matched? You sure she wasn't holding back?" Applejack said.
"Maybe the first few times, but I think after a while, she started getting more serious about stopping me." Starlight said. "However, I think she was getting to the point where she realized that simply trying to overpower me wasn't working so she tried something different. Of course I didn't believe what I saw, and when I showed her what occurred that was motivating me to do what I was doing I guess she saw that what I really needed was to try and learn to make friends the way she made them with you." Starlight said.
"Hey, our differences is what's helped us beat bad guys so many times." Rainbow Dash said. "Sure there are times we fight with one another, but we always managed to move past it." She added.
"I guess working out your differences must be a part of being friends." Starlight said, smiling as the trio finished up. "At the very least, I'm glad I have you girls and my sister to support me through this whole process." Starlight said.
"Don't forget Trixie too. Ever since you became friends with her, she seems to have cleaned up her whole act." Applejack said.
"You do realize what you see when she does her shows is just a persona right?" Starlight asked. This caused Applejack to blink.
"It is?" Applejack asked.
"Geez, apparently you didn't." Starlight said.
"Now I sort of feel bad for when we got on her case about the whole thing. If we knew it was just a façade we would've been nicer to her." Rainbow Dash said.
"She acts that way to get people to challenge her. You two and Rarity took things a bit too far when you got Twilight involved." Starlight said.
"To say nothing of the Ursa Minor." Applejack said.
"That wasn't her fault and you know it wasn't. I ain't gonna defend her against the Alicorn Amulet thing though; that I made sure she knew was a bad thing." Starlight said.
"We can't one hundred percent hold that one against her after we found out what it was doing to her." Rainbow Dash said.
"Still, she should've tried a different approach then resorting to a magical artifact." Starlight said. "Maybe after a few weeks, I can get her to approach all of you in a more civilized manner." She suggested.
"That would be nice. Your really starting to take after Twilight, sugarcube." Applejack said.
"I guess the friendship lessons Twilight was giving me before we found out we were sisters have helped." Starlight said.
"Which means she's been doing a good job." Rainbow Dash said. "Not that I ever doubted her." She added.
"And yet me being Twilight's sister hasn't changed how you all act around me. Your all still hanging out with me as if the whole fact that I'm Twilight's little sister doesn't exist." Starlight said.
"It's like we told you Starlight: Friendship is easy once you actually put forth effort to make friends." Applejack said.
"Yeah. I guess your right. All that's missing now is my own seat in the map room." Starlight said.
"We could ask Rarity to make one." Rainbow Dash suggested.
"Don't you think that'd be insulting to the tree of harmony?" Starlight asked.
"Geez...and now you've pulled another Twilight..." Applejack said.
"Huh?" Starlight was confused.
"What Applejack is saying is that you asked something Twilight would've asked. You two are starting to be more and more alike the longer this goes on." Rainbow Dash said.
"Hey, Twilight never did anything evil like I did. She may have told me about that whole one time she actually did a bad thing, but that's nothing compared to what I've done." Starlight said.
"Yeah...I guess your right." Applejack said. "Your personalities may blend together from time to time, but your still your own pony." She said.
"That's deep Applejack. Really deep." Starlight said.
"Also, if you weren't already found out to be sisters, I'd swear you were acting like one." Rainbow Dash said.
"OH COME ON!" Starlight yelled out.
