A/N: This is my very first fanfiction story ever, please review and tell me what you think! Please be polite with constructive criticism! I will be doing shout outs at the end of every story.

I fell in love with MLP years ago, but when the movies came out I was overjoyed, and fell deeper in love with the EG. I have a weird fetish, and I feel like there are not enough period stories out there, so I decided to write one. This story is mainly designed for anyone who likes that kind of stuff but feel free to read it even if you don't.

Please don't read if you don't feel comfortable about the details in this story which include blood and excessive description. Has minor swearing.

I don't own any characters, just the story. MLP and EG belong to Hasbro Studios and Lauren Faust.

This story is not plagiarised. Any resemblance between other fanfiction stories is purely coincidental. A few lines from other stories will be used, but other than that please don't sue me.

Sorry for the long author's note. This is a chaptered story, and maybe I'll write another story on MLPEG. Hope you enjoy!


Chapter 1: Sucks to be a Girl (MLPEG)

The Mane 7 were in Pinkie Pie's bedroom, talking about school and life in general. Rainbow Dash and Sunset Shimmer were on the bed, Rarity was on the couch next to Fluttershy and Applejack and Twilight Sparkle were sitting on the floor, Applejack playing video games and Twilight reading a book. Pinkie Pie was in the ensuite bathroom, changing her tampon.

"Ugh, whyyyyy? " Rainbow Dash complained, clutching her abdomen in pain. "It's like we're being punished for being a girl!" Spending so much time together as a group caused the girls to all be in sync with their periods.

"You said it, sister." said Sunset Shimmer, lying down next to her. Pinkie Pie came out of the bathroom at that moment, asking if anyone wanted cookies.

"YES!" they all shouted at once. They may have had different symptoms but they all shared one: cravings. She walked out of the room, leaving the girls to carry on complaining.

"Hey, Applejack, do you have any Advil? I ran out yesterday." asked Rainbow Dash.

"Here." Applejack tossed the small box behind her and Rainbow Dash caught it with one hand. She popped two pills and swallowed them with the glass of water that was on the bedside table, who knows how long it had been there or whether Pinkie Pie had drank it, but it at this moment, she didn't care. She handed the box and water to Sunset Shimmer, who did the same.

"Hey, Applejack," she asked, swallowing the pills and water, "how is it that you deal with cramps and all of that stuff? Isn't it torture working on the farm all day?"

"Yeah," Rainbow Dash continued, "how do you just get up and go like it's nothing? I can't play on the team when I'm like this."

"Actually, I don't really get cramps." she replied, switching games on the console.

"WHAT?!" Rainbow Dash, Sunset Shimmer and Fluttershy shouted at once. Applejack turned around, to find the girls' faces in shock. Fluttershy just blinked at her, stunned.

"But if you don't have cramps, why do carry Advil around with you?" she asked, confused.

"For you guys," she replied with a chuckle. "What kind of a friend would I be if I didn't carry it around?"

"It's only you guys and Pinkie that get cramps. Me, Rarity and Applejack don't." Twilight said, dropping into the conversation.

"You guys have no idea how lucky you are right now." said Fluttershy. "This is the worst part about periods. It's like, you already have to deal with the whole blood thing, bloating and mood swings, but then they wanna stick cramps right on the top." Fluttershy was usually shy, but now that her PMS was flying all over the place, she could change moods at the drop of a hat.

Rainbow Dash and Sunset Shimmer grunted in approval.

"Oh please darlings, don't fret. As much as menstrual cycles are irritating you are only making it harder for yourselves." joined Rarity, carefully painting her nails a hot pink colour. "Distract yourselves," she continued, "watch television, bake, go for a walk-"

"A walk?! Seriously Rarity? If I move an inch all hell will break loose. There is only one position that will feel like my ovaries AREN'T being stabbed, and this is it." Sunset Shimmer replied bluntly, gesturing to her body.

"She's right, you know." Pinkie Pie walked into the room with a tray containing two large plates heaped with chocolate chip cookies and 7 glasses of milk, along with 7 smaller plates. Applejack and Twilight moved their legs in order for her to pass through, while Pinkie gracefully moved around the room, handing glasses of milk to everyone and distributing the cookies evenly to all of the plates, then handing them out. There was a chorus of thank yous, Pinkie replied with a "No problem," and sat down with her own glass and plate. But just as she was about to take a bite, there was an-

"OW!" from Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Sunset Shimmer and Fluttershy, as they were all hit by a wave of extreme cramps. Sometimes they were so severe they had to fight not to cry, and Sunset Shimmer was at this stage. Applejack had sensed this.

"Oh, sugarcube," she empathised, getting up and walking over to Sunset Shimmer. She climbed on to the bed and put her arm around her, pulling her into her chest. Silent tears rolled down her cheeks as she sniffed quietly.

"I know it's hard," Applejack continued, "but y'all gotta get through this. Half of us can't exactly relate, but it's totally normal for you to feel upset. Go on, have a good cry. Let it all out and you'll feel much better."

With these words, Sunset Shimmer buried herself deeper into Applejack's chest and started sobbing. It would seem a bit extreme for normal girls, but these girls were magical, having saved their world multiple times. The magic has always been a part of them since they were born, and these were the side effects.

Applejack stroked Sunset Shimmer's red and gold hair as she sniffed, harder this time. By now, Rainbow Dash had turned onto her stomach, her face buried into the pillow. Nothing was heard from her for about a minute, but later on they could hear small muffled sobs and sniffs, her body slightly shaking. Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy were crying now too, leaving the remaining girls filled with sadness as they comforted the others. Twilight went around handing tissues to the girls, which they gratefully accepted. She then whispered to Applejack, "I'll prepare the hot water bottles." Applejack nodded at her, still clutching Sunset Shimmer as Twilight walked towards Pinkie's closet for the hot water bottles, then strolled into the kitchen.

10 minutes later, Twilight came back balancing 4 hot water bottles, and handed one to each girl. They took them and placed them on their lower abdomens. By now they had all stopped crying; Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Fluttershy were sitting on the couch, Rarity in between them, both of them leaning on her. Sunset Shimmer had gone over to Pinkie Pie's dressing table and was curling her hair to try and distract herself. Rainbow Dash was trying to distract herself too, reading the newest Daring Do book, 'Daring Do and the Golden Chest'.

"Are you guys feeling better now?" Rarity inquired.

They all nodded sleepily.

"Why don't we all hit the hay for a couple of hours? It'll do us good." said Applejack, getting up and pulling out the sleeping bags from under Pinkie's bed.

"Yeah," said Rainbow Dash, the first time any of them had spoke in a long time. Her voice was raspy, at least more than usual. It was a sign of sleepiness.

Sunset Shimmer walked over to her overnight bag, pulling out a pad from the front pocket and walked into the bathroom. Twilight and Fluttershy got theirs too, waiting in turn for the bathroom. Rarity had gone to make hot chocolate, she had a secret recipe that nobody else knew. There was something about the intense flavour, the airy whipped cream (Pinkie had way more than enough of that) and the fluffy, sweet marshmallows that tied it all together, and it left them feeling full and happy.

Applejack and Twilight spread out 4 sleeping bags on the floor, pink, yellow, purple and orange. Rarity handed out the hot chocolate. Earlier she had decided to sleep on the couch, and there was no way around it.

"You won't catch me sleeping on the floor." she had said with a huff. Sunset Shimmer and Rainbow Dash were sharing the double bed. The girls all got changed in front of each other, they weren't ashamed of their bodies, and snuggled into their pyjamas.

DING DONG! went the bell.

"PIZZA'S HERE!" shouted Pinkie Pie, excited for the first time in a while.

She swung open the door, tipped the delivery guy and brought the 5 boxes of large pizzas into the bedroom. The girls weren't picky on flavours, so they just ordered general toppings: margarita, meat feast, ham and pineapple, vegetarian and pepperoni and mushrooms, which was the special. There was only one thing they couldn't stand: anchovies.

"Thanks Pinkie, for letting us stay in your house this week. I hope your parents don't mind." said Twilight, picking up a slice of the margarita pizza.

"It's okay, my mom and dad are on a business trip, Marble and Limestone went to Camp Everfree and Maud is at a rock convention. Thanks for keeping me company." replied Pinkie Pie with a small smile.

"No prob," said Rainbow Dash, picking up a random slice of pizza that happened to be ham and pineapple, stuffing a wedge into her mouth. She could eat a horse right now. Rarity turned on the TV to search for some funny meme and relatable videos on YouTube. They all laughed and commented on the videos, watching for hours until finally getting sleepy. It was 01:00 a.m. until they all finally dozed off.

They all woke up at about 10:00 a.m., fresher and ready to start the day. It was the third day, which meant the cramps, bleeding and PMS in general would not be as bad as the first two days. However, like mentioned before, being born with the magic meant that dealing with menstrual cycles would be a lot more extreme.

Sunset Shimmer was the first to wake up. She stretched, squinting as the sun shined through the window. Then she looked under the duvet. There was blood all over the bed sheets both where her and Rainbow Dash had slept. 'Crap,' she thought, 'how is it possible that we both managed to forget to put down a towel and bleed all over the bed? Just great.' Mentally scarring herself, she went to change her overnight pad and pyjamas so she could wake up Rainbow Dash and change the sheets. The pad was supposed to last for seven hours, which wasn't very good considering that they had slept for nine.

Coming back from the bathroom, (she had also decided to wash her face and had put her dirty pyjamas to soak in cold water in the bathtub before washing them) Sunset Shimmer walked over to the bed and gently nudged Rainbow Dash.

"Hmmph?" she mumbled, still half asleep.

"Rainbow Dash? We need to wake up and change the sheets. We bled all over them." Sunset Shimmer said quietly, trying not to wake up the other girls.

"We did?" Rainbow Dash suddenly seemed more awake now, and looked under the duvet to find two pools of blood where her and Sunset Shimmer had slept.

"Shit," she whispered, and got out of bed. She looked at her pyjama shorts and like Sunset Shimmer, they had blood all over them. Rainbow Dash rarely ever swore, mostly because her friends didn't like it, but when she was really annoyed about something she did. Plus, Sunset Shimmer was okay with it.

"Well, this is just a brilliant start to the day." Rainbow Dash exclaimed sarcastically. She helped Sunset Shimmer remove the stained bed sheets and put on a fresh one. Surprisingly, Rainbow Dash was good at this. You'd never think so, but I guess you learn something new everyday. Then Rainbow Dash put the sheet in the bathtub as well as her pyjamas. They would have to go in the wash soon.

Walking out of the bathroom, Rainbow Dash had changed into some light blue leggings and a white tank top that showed off a bit of cleavage.

"Do you know what plans we have today?" she asked, going to help Sunset Shimmer with making the bed.

"Applejack said she would go with you to watch the Wonderbolts match Timberwolves." she replied.

"Oh, yes, I remember now. She said that 'fresh air will do me good'." Rainbow Dash put on her best Applejack accent. Sunset Shimmer giggled.

"And it will," Applejack had woken up, her voice startling Rainbow Dash, causing her to jump and stumble. Sunset Shimmer laughed harder. "There's nothing better than a walk to clear your mind. Rarity was right yesterday." Applejack got up and rolled up her sleeping bag before placing it under the bed. "I'm gonna go and make breakfast. Anyone wanna help?"
