Well, here's chapter 4, I had planned to post it earlier, but I was really busy this weekend.
CandyCloud was up before the sun. She was so excited about her first day of school. When she came into the kitchen, her mother was already eating breakfast. As soon as she sat down, their butler, Solar, set a plate of pancakes in front of her. "Thank you." CandyCloud said politely. About an hour later, she was heading out to the bus. "Bye mommy!" Said CandyCloud. "Have a good day sweetie, love you!" Called Cadence from the another room. CandyCloud couldn't wait to make new friends.
CandyCloud went to the best school in the Crystal Empire. When she arrived, the teachers and fellow students greeted her warmly. Her classes went fine. During recess, she looked for ponies to play with. CandyCloud eventually spotted a group playing tag. She went over. "Can I play too?" She asked. A bright green and pink pony stepped forward. "No, it would be unfair to the rest of us." CandyCloud was confused. "Why would it be unfair?" She asked. The pony rolled her eyes. "Because your an alicorn, and you think you're better than us. You have wings and a horn." CandyCloud was surprised now. "I don't think I'm better!" She said. The pony gave a snort. "Whatever." She said. CandyCloud saw that she wasn't going to get to join. Slowly, she walked over to a bench, and sat down. Another pony came over to sit by her. "Don't worry about Jewel, she's just jealous because we were all talking about the new alicorn princess at our school." CandyCloud looked over. A small, light green pony with sky blue hair sat next to her. "Thanks." She said quietly. The pony smiled. "I'm PineappleTwist, what's your name?" "CandyCloud." She answered. She had made a new friend.
The school year progressed well. CandyCloud didn't make any other friends, but she liked hanging out with PineappleTwist. Jewel continued to mistreat her. She didn't include her in games, she called her a freak when the teachers weren't looking, and she even pulled her wings once. Jewel was, after all, a good deal bigger than her. One day, CandyCloud asked PineappleTwist, "Shouldn't we tell someone?" PineappleTwist looked scared. "We can't do that." "Why not?" Asked CandyCloud. "Because she's the daughter of the highest benefactor of the school. Trust me, she never forgets to let us know. I've tried to tell on her before. They don't believe me or they don't do anything. Then, when Jewel finds out, she gets really mad." CandyCloud looked disappointed. "Then what do we do?" PineappleTwist looked thoughtful. "The only thing we can do is ignore her." CandyCloud was glad that she had a friend like PineappleTwist.
About half way through the school year, Jewel had a party. CandyCloud and PineappleTwist were sitting in the grass. CandyCloud got up. "I'm going to the bathroom." She said, walking away. When PineappleTwist was alone, Jewel came up to her with a smile. "Hello PT!" She said with a surgery voice. "Hi Jewel." She said quietly. "PineappleTwist, I would like to invite you to my party." PineappleTwist looked up at her in surprise. She had never been invited to a party, especially Jewel's. "Really? You want to invite me?" "Of course! I would love for you to come!" PineappleTwist smiled. "What about CandyCloud?" She asked. "Well, she's a little full of herself. She might try to steal the show." PineappleTwist scowled. "CandyCloud isn't like that at all!" "Oh really, then why has she never invited you to her house, or castle I should call it. She's obviously embarrassed because of you." PineappleTwist thought about that. "In fact, CandyCloud is having a party tomorrow, and she invited everyone in the school, except you." PineappleTwist looked shocked. "I- I don't believe you!" She said. "Oh I can prove it." With that, Jewel gave Her two invitations, one for Jewel's party, and the other was Jewel's invitation to CandyCloud's party. They were both on the same day. PineappleTwist's eyes filled with tears. "It's true." Jewel looked sympathetic. "I know, you think you know them, and then they betray you. That's why I have lots of friends. So, are you coming?" PineappleTwist looked up. "Yeah, I'll be there."
When CandyCloud came back. PineappleTwist was gone. She looked around and saw her sitting with Jewel. CandyCloud walked over. "What are doing?" She asked. PineappleTwist ignored her. Jewel spoke up. "She's tired of you sitting up on your high and mighty throne." Before anything could be said, the bell rang. Everyone went into the school, including CandyCloud, who was hurt and confused.
Well, this story is officially going to be longer than I originally thought. I had a vague idea of what this story would look like, but now that I'm writing it, I think it'll be around ten chapters or so.
