Chapter 56: Invitation Interrupted
"Twilight!". Sticks entered Dorm 49 only Twilight, Vexy and Fluttershy were to greet her with awe. The badger had knowledge of the leader's writing skills on top of her studying, and chose her as a perfect candidate, seeing a potential success in the Literature Club. Immediately after hearing her name being called out, Twilight walked out of the walkable closet.
"What is it?". She as in a calm manner.
"I want to invite you to the Literature Club. Monika and the girls seemed adamant about your potential prosperity, judging how you study hard and write so much...".
"I didn't get a response from Monika regarding the clash this will have on the Daring Do movie shoot".
"We put aside the shoot for once, writing haiku's and talking about our feelings is what's more important".
"You see, Sticks. If I go now, we won't have time to get ready for the live movie shoot tomorrow. Are you sure I want to risk it?".
"Take Twilight's advice with a pinch of salt, Sticksy". Vexy spoke, alerting her. "She's doing this for a reason".
"Hmmmm...you have a point, a point I cannot prove because of a pinch of salt in my veins".
"What happened?". Fluttershy knew something was wrong.
"Yeah, I wonder. Why are you so dependent on the Literature Club when everybody else is focused on the Daring Do set?". Twilight folded her arms.
"Uhhh...my brain is fuzzy. I forget things when I have fun and stuff".
"Did something happen while speaking to one of my birdie friends?". The timid shy girl told to Sticks.
"No. I'm fine!". The badger suddenly flinched.
"I see...are you trying to avoid going to the movie shoot?!". Twilight was stern, straight looking into the badger's light blue eyes.
"Making actors pay for their roles and imaginative characters and then releasing it as a moving image sector on some kind of big television screen or handheld technological abomination does not suit me, nor a cartoon character delving into political favor!".
"It could only go one way. Either you go without us, or head to the movie shoot!".
"Not to mention we're going to spend some time at Studio Blir. Who knows, maybe your mobian friends might become busy in that time". Vexy added.
"When is this movie shoot?". Sticks asked.
"As I already said, it is tomorrow".
"So is that a no?".
"Can you give a minute, Twi?". Vexy jumped down from her top bunk and walked toward the dorm door, but not before signalling Sticks to come with her. The two were met outside, leaning against the wall. "Do you know why she is busy prior to the movie shoot?".
"Is it because she's a really big fan of the cartoon and I'm not?".
Vexy suddenly sigh, believing that to be the answer.
"I hate to do this to you, Sticks. But Twilight's right. I like your ideas and what not, but she can't let go of an opportunity of a lifetime quite like the Daring Do invitation that Rainbow Dash was sent".
"Major bummer!". The badger heared the 10th member speak that directly to her.
"Eh, sticks and stones may break my bones. Now I know how she feels when you're always right. Allow yourself to invite her to the Literature Club after the movie shoot has ended".
"That is some validable option. Eh! Monika can wait! Friendship comes first!".
"We must get some rest before heading over there!". Vexy concluded, noticing the time was late evening. She walked back indoors, not before she exchanged a smile toward the badger. Sticks sighed and walked toward Dorm 23, in the hopes of inviting Twilight to the Literature Club before the movie shoot seemed broken at this point. Twilight wanted to do this for a reason, to watch her favorite show without the need of a television or on-demand service. It wouldn't be that long until the other girls and Sunset Shimmer head back to Dorm 49 and Dorm 37 respectively.
That's the end of this chapter. Sticks failing to invite Twilight to the Literature Club, insisting she'd do it after the movie shoot according to Vexy. What will happen next? Read on to find out. Please review.
