Chapter 37: Affixing The United Bond
Sticks was walking down the hallway to her class. She previously met up with Lola at the roller rink to discuss the episode further. The badger was calm throughout, picking up key information along her comprehension. Applejack was in Dorm 49, far from her at least. Canterlot United Ladies' fate resides in her doing the job she needed. Provided by Lola, the badger snapped the thought out of her head and continued forward to her chosen class. She noticed Madoka Kaname with her friends amongst others joining her class, combining her issues with the southern accented farm girl even more of a challenge. She walked in, knowing of the incoming paranoia she will receive. Diane C. Appleberry came into the room shortly after, placing the work on her desk. Sticks let out a silent groan in the process.
"Ok, class!". She announced. " Today's subject will focus on the dirrent types of essay addresses. The 4 main types of these, if someone would be so kindly to point them out to me".
Homura Akemi raised her hand, Diana turned to her.
"Yes?".
"Narritive, descriptive, expository and persuasive".
"Excellent, and could anyone tell me what those essays mean?".
Madoka raised her hand.
"We tell a story using narrative essays, we paint or draw something using descriptive essays, we tell facts using expository essays, and we convince people using persuasive essays".
"Isn't that what the author is doing right now?". Sticks looked at Madoka.
"I don't even know what you're talking about".
"You seem down in the dumps lately". Kyoko Sakura spoke to the badger. "Here, what some Tripledent Gum to cheer you up?".
"I don't eat that kind of stuff, stranger".
"We use these kinds of styles to tell an interesting story". Diane continued. "We ensure our viewers will walk away knowing the details are fully pointed out. Now, your task will be the write an interesting 500 word short essay on the type of hobby you enjoy. I understand this is not high level stuff, they are all on my desk ready for later. I will give you all a piece of paper and the stationary equipment if needed for mistakes or other baloney I have no control over".
"Gee, I wonder what baloney she's talking about". Sticks softly spoke, making Madoka turn to her.
"Is she talking about magic?". She said.
"I don't know what you're talking about, stranger. Can't you see I'm trying to concentrate? Don't make me rain justice on you, whatever that means".
"M'kay". The japanese student turned to her desk, a single sheet of paper layed down on the thick wood. A pen was by her side, plus a pencil and rubber in case of mistakes.
"When is this over? I want to talk to my broken bond". The badger thought.
After class...
Sticks walked over to Dorm 49 after class to fix the friendship with Applejack. It was not common for the badger to do something like this. Lola taught her everything she needed to know. The badger wanted to join the other girls whom were with the southern accented farm girl in the dorm. She opened the door, gaining attention from the girls. Applejack was reading a book while musically listening to the wild west genre. The badger watched cable with Fluttershy, the timid shy girl noticing.
"I see you're back from English class. Aren't those birds adorable? I just wanna pick one up and hug it".
"Uh, huh. Yeah, and experiences will leave you with bruises on your body. I had to wear badages to heal after that".
"You don't normally wear bandages, Sticks".
"That's because I don't want another version of me liking all of the bad stuff about the current me, the me you're sat with".
"Are you ok, sugarcube?". Applejack was still listening to her cowboy music. "About the other day?".
"What are you talking about?". The badger looked at her.
Applejack therefore turned her music off and unplugged the earphones.
"I'm sorry that I've caused so much turmoil on you since the fight we had".
"Oh, right". The badger was sarcastically sorry.
"I'm willing to make peace with you. I understand Lola's counting on us to win the game against our fellow friends, and I know how much it means to the manager for her to make such an impressing feat".
"But what Lola's doing isn't that impressing, it's just fixing the bond between you and I".
"There's more behind my mission". Lola joined in, setting aside the homework for Mr Fink. "Canterlot United needs more wins. If we don't win, then we'll won't win trophies like we usually do, and we'll drop down to the second division".
"Lola's trying to help us be our very best at this sort of thing. Sticks, I didn't mean what I meant by force, I was only protecting you from the cold weather looming over us".
"And?".
"I should've left you alone. You're right. I should've let you put your own leggings on if it really suits you best to wear them at Filly Park".
"That's understanable". Sticks contiuned to speak to her. "You let me do my kind, and we're all good. You should never try to force me to do stuff I don't consider doing. I'm glad you came to understand that, Applejack".
"Now are we good? Can we actually get along with each other now?".
"Agreed". The badger smiled at her, the farm girl smiling at the badger. Before Sticks could get back to watch the nature channel with Fluttershy, she gave a quick wink at her, indicating their friendship is now fixed. She turned around, admiring the nature seen on the cable channel. At least Canterlot United Ladies will surpass Pesrill Ladies' force when they host them at the Stadium Da Equestria a few days later.
That's the end of this chapter. Applejack and Sticks accepting their friendship is now fixed. What will happen next? Read on to find out. Please review.
