Eclipsing the Cutie Mark Crusaders

A short interlude – MLP belongs to Hasbro, Series to Lauren Faust

Lunar Eclipse belongs to me

Rarity was rather busy when Sweetie Bell entered the Foyer of her boutique. She was not alone mind you she had flanking her was Scootaloo and Applebloom. None of them knew what Rarity had planned but she had asked Sweetie Bell to gather the Cutie Mark Crusaders for this.

"SIS, we are here. What is so important?" Sweetie bell asked as Rarity entered with Eclipse in tow

"Girls I would like you all to meet Luna Eclipse" Rarity said as Eclipse hid behind her. She was not used to meeting new ponies. But her aunt (AKA Celestia) had insisted that she make 'Friends' "come on, they won't bite. She is kind of shy girls"

"Come on, Like Sis said, I won't bite, Scootaloo is a Different matter"

"HEY!" Scootaloo interjected to a Sweetie Bell sticking her tongue out at her.

"Well, umm Hi" Eclipse said coming from behind Rarity. All three girls looked at her and Faces Dropped "Sorry, was it something I said" Eclipse said. Applebloom shook her head

"'course not, we ain't seen a pony like you apart from Celestia and Luna" Applebloom "Sorry, Names Applebloom"

"I'm Scootaloo" Scootaloo said

"And I'm Sweetie Bell" Sweetie Bell said.

"Umm, I'm Luna Eclipse, Eclipse for short. And the reason that I look like 'Tia is 'Cuas Luna is my mum. I'm an Alicorn"

"Wait what!" Scootaloo said "You're saying that Princess Luna is your mum!"

"Yeah" Eclipse said

"SWEEEEET" Sweetie Bell "ROYAL FRIENDS CUTIE MARK"

"What?" Eclipse said

"We are the Cutie Mark Crusaders. We are looking for our Special Talent and WAIT" Applebloom said, "You don't have a Cutie mark yet either?"

"No I don't yet either. Is that a Good thing?"

"Good? YOU CAN JOIN US!" Applebloom said Eclipse's eyes widened.

"Really? I can really hang out with you gal's even though I'm an Alicorn?" Eclipse asked sounding concerned that they wouldn't accept her.

"Sure, you don't have your mark either, so you can join us and help out. Besides, being friends with Royalty is so AWESOME in its self" Scootaloo said.

"Well go on Girls, have fun" Rarity Said Smiling

"Sure. Come-on Girls, let's go! CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS AWAY" the Applebloom said as they darted out almost taking out Applejack on the way out.

"Was that eclipse?" She asked "Well they seem to be getting along"

"Yeah" Rarity said.

o.O.o

The CMC's took Eclipse to their hideout in Applejacks Orchard.

"It's not much but it's ours"

"It's lovely" Eclipse said as the 4 of them entered the Tree-house. "So what exactly do you girls do?"

"Well we come across ideas, and try them out. Last one was Caving, but all that happened was that we miffed off a Lupus Minor" Scootaloo said, getting a chuckle out of Eclipse, when a rock landed in the Tree house.

"HEY BLANKFLANKS!" a Familiar Girls voice come from below.

"Who the hell?" Eclipse said. Her father's foul language had rubbed off on her (At least the earth based language not the Equestrian).

"Urgh Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara" Applebloom said.

"COME ON THEN BLANKFLANKS COME OUT" Silver Spoon said.

"Why are they shouting for us to come out?"

"Don't worry your 'highness'" Scootaloo said, getting a death stare (She inherited that from Luna) "What, I was joking Eclipse"

"Don't Scootaloo; I get enough of that during open court, not amongst friends. Can I sort them out?"

"Sure, we normally leave them be, but they are bullies"

"Nice, all the more interesting" Eclipse said exiting the house and looking down at the two Fillies.

"Wow, another blank flank. Gone to join them have you?"

"Yeah as they are my friends" Eclipse said as she walked down the Ramp to the other two. The CMC's were watching. She was wearing a copy of her father's Camo Cape rather than the CMC cape (As she didn't have one yet) which showed off her flank. "Why don't you 2 leave before I get my aunt involved"

"Pfft" Silver spoon said "so dob on us then. Our parents will say you're the bully not us. We can do anything"

"yeah" Diamond Tiara continued. Only to have Eclipse roll her eyes "What was that for!"

The Cutie Mark Crusaders giggled as they knew who her aunt was, and her mum for that fact.

"Well I'm sure your parents will like to have a word with my Aunt then? She holds court from 9-4 daily in Canterlot. You might know her as Princess Celestia" Eclipse said. The other two Fillies laughed at her.

"YEAH Right, Your Aunt is not Celestia! Pull the other one bank flank" Silver Spoon said laughing. Only to have Diamond Tiara stare at Eclipse, who was simply staring back. "My aunt is Celestia ahahahaa"

Eclipse raised an eyebrow; Diamond Tiara took a step back as Eclipse had her wings out. Her wings were a little longer than Scootaloo's and she still couldn't fly but given time she would be able to.

"Stop laughing Silver spoon. She isn't kidding" Diamond Tiara said

"What are you seriously going to believe the Blank flank…?" She said back whipping away a Tear. Then she noticed that Eclipse had raised her wings, they sat out. "….OH MY…."

"Boo" Eclipse said as the two bolted away scared stiff.

"Go Eclipse!" Scootaloo said

"Yeah you go gal" Applebloom said

"Nice work" Sweetie Bell said.

"Thanks girls. D...did I get my mark"

"Naw" Sweetie Bell said

"Blast" eclipse said as the four laughed till they were on the ground.

o.O.o

The 4 didn't realise it then, but they had formed a lasting friendship that would conveyed when the 4 became the Best SGE team on Equestria, but that is another story.
