Chapter 1: Ungraceful Plan.
It was a bright and sunny spring afternoon in Ponybille as ponies of all kinds played, relaxed, or simply enjoy the warming weather as the flowers just began to bloom in the field and gardens all over the small city. But as there was calm and peace in the streets, inside Carousel Boutique, it was anything but. As for the resident fashion expert, the lovely and generous, who kept herself in such a clean and presentable matter. Was a wreck with her make-up running from the sweat she a producing and her hair like a rats nest as she was franticly throwing cloth, feathers, and other materials as she finally stopped in her steps and fell in a heap of unfinished dresses and designs scattered on the floor.
"Hey, Rarity. I'm heading off to Stooaloo's...WHOA." yelled the young unicorn in a white sundress with matching sandals and she took a long look around before she turned to her frustrated older sister before she added, "Can't figure out a design?"
"No, and the Crystal Ultimate Fashion show is just in a week and I'm not even close to finish. " Rarity cried out as she covered her eyes and let out a small groan. As she looked at her sister, Sweetie Belle looked around the room and then looked back at her sister.
"But most of these outfits look great." Sweetie Belle said out loud as she tried to encourage her siser.
"Great?' Rarity called out as she sat up and looked Sweetie Belle in the eye before continuing, "This is the first fashion show hosted in the Crystal Empire since Cadence took over, and it has to be not only great, but the best." Rarity said as she flung her arms in the air and fell back onto the heap. Sweetie Belle just looked at her sister for a few more minutes before turning towards the door and headed for it.
"To bad you just can't use the crystal ponies love for Spike to make them better." Sweetie said with a slight chuckle as she opened the front door and then closed it, leaving a shocked Rarity to lay there for a few minutes before sitting up and smiling a big smile as she got off the floor, and then headed off to freshen herself up.
Twenty minutes later, after taking a quick shower and redoing her make-up and her. Rarity was calmly walking down the streets of Ponyville. After a few minutes of enjoying the warm spring weather, Rarity had finally found her destination and slowly climbed the steps of the Ponyville's Public Library and calmly knocked on the door and with in a a few minutes, it was answered by the newly appointed Princess Twilight.
"Oh, Rarity. What a pleasant surprise." Twilight said with a smile as she stepped aside and allowed her fashion friends to walk into her home, which was neat and tidy, which was no doudt in her mind was thanks to the reason she was here.
"How are you Darling. I just felt like visiting for a few minutes." Rarity said with a smile as she slowly looked around the lovely home of her friends, but after a few minutes, her smile vanished as she saw no sign of the reason she came her in the first place any in sight. After a few more minutes of looking, she turned around and gave Twilight a bright smile as she asked, "So, were is that handsome assistant Spike at?"
"Ummm, Rainbow Dash is helping him master his new wings that he grew a few days ago." Twilight answered as she was confused as to why Rarity use a word like handsome to describe SPike, when she had never done so before.
"Oh, is that so. Where would they be training at?" Rarity asked calmly as she did not want to sound desperate to her friend.
"In a field by Sweet Apple Acers." Twilight answered her second question as he eyebrow rose and she was beginning to wonder what Rarity was trying to pull.
"Oh, thank you darling.' Rarity said with a sly smile as she looked at Twilight for a few more minutes before letting out a long yarn and continuing, "Oh, I'm sorry Twilight. How un lady like of me. Excuse me." Rarity said with a smile as she walked back to the front door and opened it to leave.
"That's alright Rarity..." Twilight said as she tried to say good bye, but was cut off by Rarity closing the door on her face. After a few seconds of confused and an unsettling feeling in her stomach, she finished, "See ya." Outside, Rarity let out a long sigh as she looked around for a few minutes as she left walked away from the library and then she smiled as she began to head toward the dirt path that leads to the Sweet Apple Acers.
After ten minutes of walking, Rarity was standing next to the large number of apple trees, all in a row and she enjoyed the smell of the sweet apple blossoms as they had began to bloom and filled the air with their sweet aroma. But as she walked, she hated the feeling of the mud from a spring shower the day before, but she knew she had to persevere if she wanted to empress the ponies of the Crystal Empire. At long last, she had finally sae the farm house that housed her close friend and Element of Honesty, Applejack. But as she got closer, a voice suddenly came out of no where that caught her attention.
"Whoa, look out below." the voice yelling was very familiar and it came from above her, as Rarity looked up, she got a surprise as a figure suddenly fell form the sky and crashed right into her, The force of the figure crashing into her knocked Rarity to the ground and to her, the world was spinning as she heard another voice chuckling.
"That was just great Spike, you'd make the best crash test dummy." the voice belong to Rainbow Dash, who was hovering above them.
""Don't laugh Dash, they could be hurt." said a third voice, which belonged to the timid Fluttershy, who was hovering down towards them.
"Yeah Dash, show some concern." a forth voice scolded the blue Pegasus, which belong to Applejack. Who walked over and looked over the two on the ground. Applejack knelt down next to the duo as she added, "Are you two alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine." the young dragon who was dressed in a white t-shirt with a green flame on it under a purple jacket, blue jeans, and sneaks with a fresh pair of vat-like wing coming from his back sai as he put his hands under him and lifted himself up off of the ground and looked down at the white unicorn under him, who's eyes were spinning in circles..
"I-I'm alright to, Darling. Just until the world stops spinning." Rarity said as she sat up a little and looked up at the very wel built dragon laying on top of her. As her vision began to return to normal, she suddenly realized something felt off, and so she looked down and her eyes widen to the size of saucers as her white cheeks suddenly turned bright red. Confused, Spike looked down and his face quickly followed Rarity's as he saw what embarrassed her, for Spike had unknowingly place his right hand on her left breast when he got off the ground. After a few seconds on awkward silence, Spike quickly pulled away from Rarity and suddenly heard Dash laughing from above.
"Way to go Spike, copping the feel like a playa." Dash said as she continued to laughed at the scene before her.
"No, wait. It's not like that. I-it was an accident." Spike mumbled as he looked at a blushing Rarity, who had crossed her arms over her chest and looked up at him with a confused look on her face as he looked her in the eye. After a few minutes of staring, Spike simply took flight and flow past Dash as he headed for Ponyville.
"Wow, he really improved from last time." Dash said with a smile as she watched the purple steak he left from him flying of began to vanish and turned to her friends, which all three of them were giving her a hard glare as she looked confused as she landed on the ground and continued to look confused as she asked, "What?" With out answering her, Applejack and Fluttershy helped Rarity to her feet, and headed to the farm house to check on her for any injuries.
After just five minutes of flying, which would empress even Dash, Spike tried to land in front of the library but couldn't get it just right and he crashed through the front door. After a few moments of him laying on the floor, Spike looked up at a concern Twilight, who had been looking at him the whole time and she quickly spoke.
"This is what I get from letting Dash teach you how to fly." Twiligth said with a sweet smile on her face as she leaned down and helped Spike up, who quickly pushed past her and headed up stairs to his room. "Spike, I was just kidding. Oh, come on. It couldn't be that bad." Twilight called out ot her younger brother and did not get an answer, but before she could not get a real answer from him, her phone rang. Concerned for Spike, Twilight quickly walked over to the new invention and answered it, "Hello, I'm sorry but I can't really talk right now Applejack. What? Is she okay? I see. Okay. I'll go talk to him. Bye." After that, she hung up the phone and let out a long sigh as she walked up the stairs to the second floor and then found Spike room, which he's had for a few years after he out grew his basket. After taking a deep breath, she knocked on the door.
"Go away." Spike yelled from the other side of the door.
"Spike, it was not your fault. You are still getting used to those wings and they are hard to control when you not use to them.." Twilight said as she felt concern about Spike's well being from this.
"Buy I groped her. She must thing I'm some kind pervert." Spike said, sounding almost to the verge of tears.
"No, she understands you didn't do it on purpose." Twilight tried to reinsure Spike.
"How do you know?" Spike asked as he was unsure if Twilight really knew all this, or was she just trying to make him feel good.
"Because Applejack called and told me what happen. Rarity also said she wants you to meet her tonight so she could ask you something." Twilight said as she looked at the door and then smiled when she saw it open after a few minutes.
"What time should I go?" Spike asked with a small smile on his face as he looked at Twilight, who smiled back.
"Seven." she said still smiling at her brother as he looked at his watch.
"Oh, that gives me a few hours to get cleaned up.' And with that said, Spike closed his door only to open in just a few minutes in a white bathrobe, towel, and scrub brush in claw. After closing his door, Spike headed for the bathroom leaving Twilight just to watch him with a kind smile on her face.
After spending a two hours cleaning and dressing up, Spike walked out of the library and bid Twilight goodbye as he walked down the streets of Ponyville as Celestia's sun began to set over the mountains and Luna's moon rose over the fields. After a calm and peaceful walk through most of Ponyville, Spike had finally arrived at the Carousel Boutique and wuickly knocked on the door. After waiting for a few minutes, Rarity opened the door wearing her normal clothes.
"Why hello there Spike, please come in." she said in a sweet smile as she stepped aside and allowed Spike inside as she closed the door behind him. Once the door was shut, she lead Spike to her living room and sat him down on the couch as she offered him a drink.
"No, thank you." Spike said with a little blush on his face as she sat very close to him.
"Spike, do you know why I called you here to night?" Rarity asked in a calm tone.
"T-the incident?" Spike asked as he gulped hard.
"No, that's in the past." Rarity said as she waited for Spike to calm down before she continued, "Your know about the big fashion show in the Crystal Empire next week, right?"
"Yeah, Cadence said it was going to one of the biggest in Eauestia history." Spike said with a smile.
"That's right and I have clothes just right for the show, but I need your help." Rarity said as she placed her hand Spike leg and waited for him to react, and once she face turned from purple to bright red, she continued, "I want you to come with me and model my outfits for me."
"What, me? But I'm no model." Spike said as he felt unsure if he should do that.
"Please, it will make the entire Crystal Empire and me very happy, Spikey-Wikey." Rarity said as she leaned against him and gave him the puppy dog look, he was hers.
"Alright, sure. I'll do it for you." Spike said with a smile as Rarity got very excited.
"Oh, thank you Spike." Rarity said as she leaned forward planted a sweet kiss on his cheek. Making Spike swoon over the action.
