Cutie Marks Anyone?
Chapter 1
True Talents
The three crusaders sat in a crooked triangle in the middle of their little clubhouse with their faces sulking and their heads drooping, the sun was just sinking over the pointed mountains. It was a disappointing day for the three fillies, once again their many attempts at getting their cutie marks failed badly. All of a sudden Sweetie bell jerked her head up, her face was steaming mad, "What's the point?" a frustrated Sweetie Bell shouted, startling the other fillies, making them also jerk up their heads "We'll never get our cutie marks!" suddenly, tears started streaming down her angry face, while the other two crusaders just sat their gaping, shocked at what she just said. Apple Bloom stood up and walked over to her crying friend, laying one of her hoofs gently on Sweetie Bell's shoulder with her face full of sympathy "We've tried everything!" Sweetie Bell went on, "EVERY-!" "WAIT!" Apple Bloom shouted, smiling big, lifting her hoof off of Sweetie Bell's shoulder and stomping it on the floor, also cutting off Sweetie Bell "There'r three things that we haven't tried yet!" she bellowed excitedly. "What? WHAT! WHAT ARE THEY!" Scootaloo screamed, as she stood up and started to bounce up and down with a hopeful face, "Dancing, Singing And Props!" Apple bloom squeaked, still smiling. Scootaloo stopped bouncing, her excitement faded to annoyance and anger, "We already did that!" Scootaloo yelled, "Let me explain," Apple Bloom cooed waving her front hoofs at Scootaloo showing her that there was more to this, "We messed it up last time because, I should have done props and costumes, you should have done dancing, and Sweetie Bell should have done singing and-" "Are you sure?" Scootaloo interrupted, Apple Bloom rolled her eyes in amusement and annoyance. "Well have you heard Sweetie Bell's voice and how she make up songs quickly without the tiniest bit of effort?" "Really?" Sweetie Bell remarked sounding surprised and a lot less angry, "Duh, and Scootaloo you are amazing on your scooter and you're a master at dancing."Apple Bloom replied rolling her eyes again "Well, I-I guess I'm pretty good at that, I really like doing it. But it just seems weird." Scootaloo shakily said sitting, she looked down embarrassed scuffling her hoofs making little dust clouds. Sweetie Bell trotted away from Apple Bloom making a triangle once more. "And-and Apple Bloom should have done props and costumes." Sweetie Bell stammered as she sat down. There was silence for a minute, the three sat in a crooked triangle, just like they were before, looking down, wondering what just happened. Soon, they slowly lifted their heads up with smiles slowly growing, on their faces, the fillies stared at each other, all of them opened their mouths looking like they were going to say something, but they were too shocked to say it, but it was Apple Bloom who was the first to jump onto her feet and say it, "WE FIGURED OUT OUR TALENTS! WE FIGURED OUT OUR TALENTS!" Soon, the other two crusaders joined the chant, also jumping to their feet, making it sound a pretty, but loud chorus. They bounced all over the clubhouse making everything wobble, "Wait a minute." Scootloo yelled, her voice full of disappointment, "How are we gonna show off our talents to get our cutie marks?" The three fillies stopped bouncing looking also disappointed and sat down where they were, and once again there was silence
