Now for the fallout, but remember, it can still get worse
Rarity had escorted Rumble out her Boutique, she was still fuming over what had happened, to see a colt she trusted with her younger sister actually have the nerve to do something so horrible.
The irony is that she's the one who defended him against Applejack once, saying he would never take advantage of Apple Bloom, and then she sees this same colt doing what Applejack once feared, but to her own sister.
What boggles Rarity is that earlier this summer Sweetie Belle hated Rumble, so she was the last person Rarity expected to lose their virginity to Rumble.
Rumble felt humiliated, to be caught in the act, now he knows how Thunderlane feels every time he gets busted, Rumble himself having busted him once or twice, including earlier that day, the only bright side is seeing Rainbow Dash all sweaty, though part of him respects her too much to think like that, the other part says, 'awesome'.
Rumble also feels horrible because he feels like he disappointed Rarity by essentially betraying her trust, not to mention how Apple Bloom and the others might feel, he told them he would make a choice based on who seemed better, but the fact that he simply went for home on one just didn't seem right to him.
Rarity finally arrived at Thunderlane's house and knocked hard, "Thunderlane! Open up!"
She waited a moment, "What's taking him so long?" she knocked again, "Thunderlane! Open up!"
She pressed her ear against the door and heard some talk inside.
"Aw it's Rarity, what doe she want?" she heard Rainbow say.
"Probably just dropping off Rumble", she heard Thunderlane say.
"Why is she banging so loud though? It totally killed the mood"
"Well it's late and maybe she just wants to get home, I'm surprised, I figured she'd still be in Manehatten"
"Well lets just open up and get Rumble to bed so we can finish up"
"I think that's enough for today Rainbow"
Rarity rolled her eyes, "I see where you get this from young man"
Rumble looked away, ashamed of his brother.
Thunderlane opened up, "Yeah Rarity?"
Rarity noticed he looked sweaty and can feel the heat coming from the house, "Thunderlane, how often do you and Rainbow have your 'moments' together?"
Thunderlane blushed, "No offense, but that's none of your business"
Rarity looked displeased, "Well I think you may have set a bad influence on your brother"
Thunderlane looked confused and curious, "How so?"
"Well, for one, I just caught your little brother having sex with my little sister"
Thunderlane looked surprised and turned to Rumble, "Wait, you, and Sweetie Belle...you did it?"
Rumble nervously nodded.
"Holy shit!"
"What's wrong?" Rainbow called out.
"Rumble and Sweetie went all the way!"
Rainbow's eyes bulged, "No way! Rumble and Sweetie Belle had sex?"
Rarity groaned, "Yes, they did"
Rainbow approached Rumble with her hoof out, "Way to go! You're one step closer to being a Stallion!"
Rarity growled, "I don't find humor in this Rainbow Dash! He took my sister' virginity, I would like to know how Thunderlane will handle this!"
"Um, handle it? Well...gee this seems like a job better suited for our parents...um I'll have a word with him"
"Good", Rarity said.
Rumble started going inside then turned to Rarity, "I'm really sorry Rarity"
Rarity simply turned her head away, "I'm in no mood for apologies, you really upset me Rumble, I thought you knew better", she then left, Rumble feeling dejected and then he went inside.
Rainbow looked at her 'watch', "Well I should be off!" she was gonna leave but Thunder called her, "Wait don't leave me alone with this!"
Rainbow sighed, "Seriously? What can I say to make this better?"
"He looks up to you, maybe too much since he did that"
"Hey, don't blame this on me, you enjoy it just as much as I do!"
Thunderlane put his hooves up, "Not the point, lets just discuss this", he turned to Rumble, "Mind telling me what happened?"
Rumble sighed, "Well...we were talking a bit, then she told me she wanted me to be her coltfriend, then she started kissing me, and I kissed her back, then she said 'Take me, I'm yours'...so I took her"
"Wow, just like that? Weren't you worried?" Thunderlane asked.
"A little, but she looked so pretty and she looked like she really wanted it, and I realized I wanted it too, so I went for it, it was amazing, I never felt so good in my life", Rumble started fantasizing, "It was poetry in motion, the way she looked during it, and the cute little moans she made, giving me a sense of satisfaction cause I was the one making her feel good, I felt in control...it's almost like flying, felt better too"
Thunderlane looked surprised at Rumble's sudden change in demeanor, "Wow...so no regrets?"
Rumble's demeanor changed back, "Well only that I may have made Rarity upset, and I think Apple Bloom might get upset too"
"Well besides all that kid, do you regret having sex with her?"
Rumble shook his head, "No, I don't mind losing my virginity to Sweetie Belle, if I was able to, I would do it again"
"So does that mean you pick Sweetie Belle as your marefrield?" Rainbow asked.
Rumble pondered, "Oh wow, I forgot about that...I guess I have to, it would be pretty improper of me if I don't"
"Well it's not like you got her pregnant", then Thunderlane realized, "Oh God I hope you DIDN'T get her pregnant"
"If anypony gets pregnant it's probably gonna be Rainbow Dash, you two have been doing it all day pretty much, and I'm pretty sure you've been doing it the last few weeks", Rumble said.
Rainbow chuckled, "Yeah we have"
Rumble's ears drooped, "I feel so confused though, on one hand I enjoyed my time with Sweetie Belle, on the other I think I upset Rarity and I think this is gonna upset Apple Bloom"
"Look bro, don't worry about that stuff, in fact stop worrying so much about what the others might think of you, now I know you didn't do Sweetie Belle simply because she was there, you do genuinely like her and it sounds like nothing was forced, maybe Sweetie's the one for you"
"Maybe...kinda weird, she used to hate me"
Thunderlane chuckled, "Hey I got together with Rainbow Dash, and she used to hate me"
"It's not that I hated you, it's that you have a tendency to be lazy, which is a waste cause you're a great flyer", Rainbow said.
"Not as great as you Dashie"
Rainbow chuckled, "Well you're still good enough for me", she turned to Rumble, "And you're still my favorite little colt, who's becoming a stallion", she ruffled his hair.
"Wait til Flitter and Cloudchaser find out", Thunderlane said.
Rumble chuckled but then remembered something, "Um Rainbow, I have a question about Scootaloo...are you ever gonna, well you know, be her friend again? I think she really misses you"
Rainbow looked unsurely to the side, "Well, I do kinda miss hanging out with her but after that time I came close to beating her up, I just felt weird around her, I was mad at her at the time but after you all made up, I had no more reason to be mad, but all that anger was replaced with guilt"
"Well if you talk to her, I'm sure you can work things out, she just wants to be your friend again", Rumble said.
Rainbow thought a moment, "Ok, tomorrow we can work everything out, all of us, now you should probably head to bed, and don't worry about Rarity, I can straighten her out"
Rumble nodded, "Ok, goodnight" he flew over to his room, Thunderlane turned to Rainbow Dash, "Guess you wanna get going to?"
Rainbow simply glared at him.
"Rainbow?"
She put on an evil grin.
"Aw come on Rainbow, it's late and my brother's nearby, we really should just-" Rainbow then tackled him to the floor.
The next morning, Rumble made his way to the park, with Rainbow Dash, Thunderlane, Flitter & Cloudchaser joining him, Rumble still remembers Flitter & Cloudchaser's reaction to him having sex with Sweetie Belle.
Flashback
"Rumble did WHAT?" Cloudchaser shouted.
Flitter sobbed in the corner, "He's growing up, soon he'll be too big to hug, I don't want him to get bigger, I want him to stay small and cute forever!"
Rumble, Thunderlane & Rainbow looked surprised and freaked out.
"Flitter, knock it off", Cloudchaser said.
Flitter then grabbed Rumble and pulled him into a strong hug, "How can you do this Rumble!? You're my little angel! You shouldn't be having sex! Especially with Sweetie Belle, she has the makings of a total slut!"
That shocked everyone.
"Did you just call Sweetie Belle a slut!?" Rainbow asked.
"Have you seen her!? And her sister!?" Flitter said.
Cloudchaser cautiously approached Flitter, "Sis, put the boy down, and go have an aspirin or something, you're freaking out"
"Back off! He's my little foal!" Flitter said, showing crazy eyes and clutching to Rumble with dear life.
"Don't make me take you down, I'll do it!" Cloudchaser warned.
Flitter glared, "Try me"
Rainbow Dash and Thunderlane nervously glanced at each other, then focused on the oncoming fight.
Cloudchaser rushed in on Flitter to and...
5 seconds later
Flitter is down, swirls in her eyes.
Cloudchaser turned to Rumble, "You took a huge leap, I hope you know what you're gonna do next"
Rumble nodded, "I do"
"And seriously, Sweetie Belle? She hated you like a month ago, how did you get her in bed?"
"She started kissing me, then I felt excited"
Cloudchaser giggled, "You may be sweet but you're still a colt like any other, not that it's a bad thing"
Present
Rumble marched until he saw the Crusaders, they looked unhappy, also nearby were the rest of the Mane 6, plus Spike, Cherilee and Coco Pommel.
Rumble sighed and approached the group, soon they all noticed Rumble, each giving him their own look.
Starting with the mares, Rarity glared angrily at Rumble, she was still upset over him having sex with Sweetie Belle, Applejack looked at him unsure what to think, she was once paranoid about him and since having dismissed that paranoia after realizing how stubborn she was being, but to see that he did this, she wondered if she was right to be paranoid, Twilight looked surprised at him, she considered him to be a well behaved boy, to find out he had sex was just too surprising, Cherilee had a sense of disappointment, also believing Rumble to not be the type to do something like this, Fluttershy, felt bad for Rumble, he's usually a nice kid, she figures he just made a bad decision, Pinkie Pie, despite her happy go lucky nature, also realized the severity of this situation, but wouldn't pass judgement on Rumble, she wanted to hear him out first, Coco didn't know what to think, she barely knew him but assumed him to be a nice boy, she wants to hear more before she passes judgement, Spike looked at Rumble also somewhat confused.
With the Crusaders, Apple Bloom looked somewhat hurt, she was hoping to be the one that ended up with Rumble in that situation, now she thinks she's gonna lose her chance, Babs also seemed disappointed in not having her chance, though she's surprised he even went for it, she kinda regrets not going for it sooner, Scootaloo looked pretty angry, not happy about what Rumble did, Sweetie Belle looked at him with a blush, though she has some guilt, she technically made the first move and got him all riled up.
Rumble decided he needed to face the music and approached everyone, "Hello everypony, nice day huh?"
After a few moments of awkward silence, Fluttershy surprisingly was the first to speak, "Yes, it is a nice day...don't you all think it's a nice-"
"Oh cut the crap Fluttershy, we all know why we're here!" Rarity said, causing Fluttershy to eep and hide behind the group.
Cherilee approached Rumble, "Now Rumble, I understand that you and Sweetie Belle had...relations last night"
Rumble nodded, "Yes Miss Cherilee"
"Now...do you understand the severity of what you did? Sex is not a light subject, now I know it's summer but I think I should give you a brief lesson on sexual education, in fact all of you need one too, hm, I wonder if I should round up the other colts and fillies?"
"Just these 5 is fine Cherilee", Twilight said.
"Um, how about Dinky? She's a close friend to them and she should probably be clued in on this", Rainbow said.
"Right, I'll go find her, where would she be?" Cherilee asked.
"She should be at Derpy's house", Rainbow said.
Twilight approached Cherilee, "Come on, we'll go together, I can help convince them"
Cherilee nodded and left with Twilight, the others feeling awkward.
"So now what?" Pinkie asked.
Applejack stepped forward, "Give me 5 minutes with him"
The others nodded, Applejack gestured Rumble to follow her, when they got to a more private area, Applejack spoke, "Tell me exactly what happened last night"
Rumble hestitated, "I really don't think..."
Applejack slammed her hoof down, "Rumble...talk"
Rumble gulmped and nodded, "Ok...well I had my date with Sweetie Belle last night and...she eventually started kissing me...not like all flirty like, but more passionate, like she really wanted me, then I felt all weird, when she stopped kissing me, I felt a separation and I fixed that by returning the kiss, and then..."
Applejack waited, "Then what?"
"Well...she told me...*sigh* she told me to take her, and I did...I took her, and later Rarity caught us"
Applejack stood there to access, she could tell Rumble was being truthful, she can tell from his voice and eyes "So it sounds like Sweetie Belle made the first move"
"She did...but I still...started the process"
"Well still, I know you're usually well behaved, so I'm not surprised that Sweetie Belle would get your juices flowing, still Rarity's pretty mad, but ah think I can calm her down, but I'm also worried about you, how do you feel about this whole thing?"
"Um...is it wrong that I liked it?"
Applejack shook her head, "Not too much, it's normal to feel that way, she's a pretty filly so I'm sure you have no regrets, other than making her sister unhappy, granted Apple Bloom's not happy, she knew you would probably pick another filly, ah know you gave her fair warning so she's not too crushed if you go with someone else, a lower pony would have led her on, but are you picking Sweetie Belle?"
"Well I think I have to, I had sex with her"
"That's mighty considerate of ya but not a good reason to have a relationship, don't base it off sex, base it off personality"
Rumble groaned, "Man, I knew I jumped the gun somewhere"
Applejack patted him a bit, "Relax Rumble, everypony jumps the gun sometimes, we even learn from it, but you need a nice talk with Sweetie Belle, and you need to speak with Rarity"
Rumble nodded, "Ok, thanks Applejack"
"No problem sugarcube"
She pulled him into a hug, causing a blush, he still had a small crush on her.
Meanwhile with the mares, Rarity is still steamed.
"I still can't believe he manipulated my sister like that"
Cloudchaser looked annoyed, "Rumble said she made the first move, he didn't manipulate her"
"Are you suggesting my little Sweetie Belle would do something like that?"
Flitter stepped forward, "Of course, your sister is just like you after all!"
Rarity looked taken back, "What's that supposed to mean!?"
"It means-" Cloudchasher cut Flitter off, "I want you to keep your mouth shut, you're gonna cause more issues, though I do stand by Rumble, I love him but I have to admit he's a pretty wimpy kid sometimes, there's no way he would manipulate a filly"
"He constantly flirts with them", Rarity pointed out.
"He's just messing around, and getting back at them for bullying him, Rarity you know Rumble, do you honestly think he would manipulate your sister?"
Rarity looked to the side, "Possibly"
Cloudchaser moved closer, "Do you? The same boy who's always usually cheery, the same boy who always thinks of others, the same boy who always takes time to compliment you and your work? You know the main reason he's so upset cause he feels like he let you down, and he feels like you hate him"
"I don't hate him, I'm just not happy with him"
"Look would you rather your sister lose her virginity to a creep, or someone like Rumble who is always so sweet, when you caught them did Sweetie seem upset? Does she regret anything?"
Rarity sighed, "I guess not, but still-"
"But nothing, what has Sweetie told you about this?"
"Well, she did insist that she basically threw herself at him, I guess I just didn't want to believe my sister would do that, but I guess I'm being too hard", she let out a sigh, "I'm still gonna need a word with him soon though"
"Fair enough", Cloudchaser said.
Meanwhile with the Crusaders, things weren't too well with them.
"Ah can't believe you even had sex with him Sweetie Belle, the deal was we wait for him to choose, not swoop in and do him", Apple Bloom complained.
Sweetie looked away, "Well things happen Apple Bloom"
"Things happen? Why should you have been his first anyway!? You hated him!"
"I never hated him! When did I say I hated him?"
"You said it all the time, you never wanted him with us!"
"I never meant it, I was just jealous, I had a crush on him as long as you Apple Bloom, I earned this too"
"Y'all didn't earn a damn thing! I bet you manipulated him! Probably used a spell or hypnotized him!"
"All I did was kiss him, that's all, he simply kissed back, then he made me feel like a million bits", Sweetie then let out a dreamy sigh as she fantasized about the events, "He was so wonderful, he knows how to treat a filly"
Apple Bloom gritted her teeth, "Y'all are starting to get on mah bad side!"
"Deal with it Apple Bloom, all is fair in love and war! I love him too! I have every right to swoop in! That's how you get a colt to like you!" Sweetie shouted.
"You want war? I'll give y'all a war!" Apple Bloom threatened, before Scootaloo stepped in, "Knock it off! You're seriously gonna let a colt come between you two? This is what Babs warned us about!" Scootaloo said.
"Hey don't start bringing that crap up, I dropped that crap once Rumble admitted I looked fine to him", Babs said.
Scootaloo groaned, "So that's it, you're all a bunch of dumb bimbos that needs the opinion of a colt, is that it?"
The 3 fillies glared at Scootaloo.
"Who you calling a bimbo?" Apple Bloom asked.
"I'm just saying you're too focused on this kid, I miss the old days where we simply did our crusades, before he came along", Scootaloo said.
"Scootaloo, we discussed this already, Rumble's a Crusader, he's one of us, now, y'all booted him once, if y'all boot him again, I'm disbanding again, and this time I ain't gonna reform the group"
"Ugh, see, this is what I'm talking about! You care more about him than about us! And I swear if you even THINK about hurting Sweetie Belle again I'll-"
"You'll what?" Apple Bloom asked, getting in Scootaloo's face with an intense expression.
They simply stared off growling at each other.
Soon Rumble and Applejack arrived back to the other mares, Rarity approached Rumble.
"Rumble dear, I think we need to talk"
Rumble looked nervous but nodded, "Ok"
"And don't worry, I'm not mad anymore...well not totally mad, I'm still unhappy with what you did but I guess once we work things out, we can put this behind us"
Rumble nodded, "Yes Miss Rarity"
"Rumble, I believe I told you once before, you can simply call me Rarity", she gave him an honest smile, much to Rumble's relief.
Rarity then turned to Coco, "I'm sorry you had to come to town during all this, I had hoped for a better scenario"
Coco nodded, "Don't worry, I'm still happy to be here, I missed all of you"
Rumble noticed the Crusaders at each other's throats, "Um, the girls look like they're gonna kill each other"
The others turned to the girls.
"Oh no, I was afraid of this", Rarity said.
"Mind if I talk to them? With a little privacy? I need to fix this", Rumble said.
Rarity nodded, "Of course dear"
Rumble approached the Crusaders and cleared his throat, "Hey girls"
All the crusaders turned to Rumble.
"Oh, Rumble, yer here", Apple Bloom said.
"What do you want!?" Scootaloo asked with an attitude.
"I take it Scootaloo's the only one mad at me, as far as I know?" Rumble asked.
"Well I'm not mad, I'm sad though, ah was hoping you'd pick me", Apple Bloom said.
"That's the thing", Rumble turned to Sweetie, "Last night was the most fun I've had, well before your sister came, but still, I never felt so good, not to mention you looked so cute, but...I can't pick you based on that"
Sweetie was confused, "But...I thought you were enjoying yourself"
"I did enjoy myself, but I can't pick you just because I had sex with you, Applejack told me that's not a good way to start a relationship, to pick you based off sex, I need to like you for you, and while I do like you, you're still not the only one I like, so I can't put you through that"
Sweetie's ears dropped, "I was hoping you'd finally just pick me, I knew I should have taken it slow, now I wasted our first time"
"It wasn't a total waste, like I said, it was a great time, but maybe we did move too fast"
"Yeah, I'm really sorry about that"
"Well I also played a part, I did kiss back, so I'm sorry too"
Apple Bloom smiled, "Well ah guess we can look past this, besides this only means Rumble has experience, and that means when we have our moment, he's gonna know exactly what to do", Apple Bloom said with a mischievous grin, much to Rumble's awkwardness.
Scootaloo growled, "You have GOT to be kidding me, seriously? Everypony's ok with this? He had sex with Sweetie Belle! Now he's pulling this crap? Don't you realize in the end he wants to just get each of us in bed and then blow us off!? I bet he won't even give Sweetie Belle a passing glance now that he's gotten her"
Rumble's ears drooped, he knew it wouldn't be that easy but he wasn't gonna give up on his friends, "I know you're upset Scootaloo, and it's ok if you don't forgive me right away, I don't blame you, I know how much you care about Sweetie Belle and-"
"That's it...that's exactly it!" Scootaloo said, gaining the curiosity of her friends.
"What's it?" Apple Bloom asked.
"He only had sex with Sweetie Belle to get back at me for not playing his little game! He knew it would upset me, he did this on purpose!"
"Scootaloo you're being ridiculous, Rumble's too nice to do something like that", Apple Bloom said.
"Seriously? You're gonna fall for that? From Day one he's caused trouble, upsetting Sweetie Belle, getting her beaten, by you nonetheless, and nearly getting me and Babs beaten up, Cloudchaser tried to break Babs' arm and Rainbow Dash wanted to hurt me, and it's obvious the week he spent with Lightning Dust probably made him that much more evil!" Scootaloo said.
Babs rolled her eyes, "I really regret putting this crap in your head, I ain't mad at him for nothing anymore, I ain't even mad at Cloudchaser, we made peace, she said she was sorry and felt guilty, and I knew she simply overreacted, if someone did that to Apple Bloom or Fluttershy I'd probably try to break their arm too"
"And I already told Rumble I never hated him that much, I was just jealous", Sweetie said.
"And ah didn't beat Sweetie Belle, besides it's not like ah enjoyed it neither, ah care about her too and ah took care of her afterwards, sometimes you just need a little tough love"
"Ok let me get to Babs, first off you didn't plant anything in my head that wasn't already there, granted you spoke up and put things in a way that I can relate to, I started disliking Rumble after the whole Canterlot stuff, things just went to hell from there, and I don't recall Rainbow Dash trying to make peace with me after all that! How did Cloudchaser do it for you and Rainbow not for me!?"
"For the record Scoots, I talked to Rainbow about this, she's willing to work things out, but she won't is she sees you acting up like this"
Scootaloo growled, "You're toying with my emotions again! Why are you doing this to me!?"
Rumble started getting frustrated, "I'm not doing anything to you! Scootaloo this isn't you, I know you don't mean this!
Scootaloo started tearing, "You don't know me! You don't know me at all! Stop acting like you care!"
Rumble got concerned, "Why are you so sad!? Did I do something to upset you!? Wait...did you have a crush on me at first like Sweetie Belle did?"
"NOT EVERYPONY IS SEXUALLY ATTRACTED TO YOU!" Scootaloo shouted, even the mares heard that.
"Wow, that's awkward", Rainbow said.
Back to the foals.
"Maybe you're just frustrated about something, home life bad? Hormones? Something's wrong, and I'm gonna figure it out, cause you're my friend and-"
"CUT THE CRAP ALREADY! I DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH YOU SO BACK OFF!"
Now it's Rumble's turn to tear, "I'm sorry, I guess you just don't want to be near me for a while, I can just leave for a bit and when you want to hang out with me again, just let me know, I'll gladly be your friend again"
Rumble turned to leave, Scootaloo tried to ignore it but something in her nagged, "Wait...please don't go"
Rumble turned to her with hopeful eyes.
"I'm...I'm just...dammit Rumble just don't leave, cause if you do then I'm gonna feel guilty later, maybe I'm just frustrated, you at times seem closer to the others than to me, and I feel like you've slowly taken everything from me, maybe you didn't intend to but you have, my friends seem to like you better, Rainbow likes you better, you can fly"
Rumble sighed, "Scootaloo, need I remind you that bringing me into this group was YOUR idea"
"It was more Rainbow's idea, but I did it cause I pitied you a bit, Rainbow said you were ridiculously shy, plus I had a crush on you, though unfortunately the others either really took to you, or really hated you, then took to you, and it has only seemed like you really considered one of the others before me anyway, I even thought I wasn't pretty enough for you"
"Huh? Of course you are, why wouldn't you think that?"
"I don't know, maybe cause I don't have that long flowing hair"
"Neither does Babs, and I think she's pretty, look at her eyes"
Babs blushed, "And you're easy on these eyes"
Rumble chuckled and turned to Scootaloo, "Still, you're pretty too, maybe I never treated you like that because you always seemed like the tough girl like Rainbow Dash, granted Babs and Apple Bloom are tough, they don't seem to mind as much, and I know you don't like the girly stuff", Rumble sighed, "Then again that never stopped my brother with Rainbow Dash...damn I screwed up again"
Scootaloo approached Rumble and kissed his cheek, "Regardless, I accept your apology, and I'm sorry for freaking out, I know you're not a bad colt, I'm just insecure"
Rumble smiled a bit, but it faded when they heard an evil filly laugh.
Diamond Tiara had approached with Silver Spoon, "Aw how nice, the blank flanks made up, though the big spat beforehand was the most entertaining part, besides the sappy confession in the end, for the record Scootaloo, you're not pretty, you have a colt's hairstyle, though I'm sure that's good enough for a filly face colt"
Apple Bloom growled, "Yer the last pony ah wanna see now"
"Of course I am, I'm perfection, everything you're not, and it eats at you", Diamond said.
Silver simply stood there for the most part, no reaction for her friend's cruel jokes.
"So Sweetie Belle, it looks like you took my advice, you went in for it", Diamond said.
Apple Bloom angrily turned to Sweetie Belle, "She told you to do it!? You listened to Diamond Tiara!?"
"Well..., sorta", Sweetie said.
"That's so stupid! Why would you listen to her! Obviously she was setting you up!" Apple Bloom shouted.
Sweetie Belle started tearing up a bit, then Scootaloo stepped in, "Hey, quit yelling at Sweetie Belle!"
"This don't concern you!" Apple Bloom shouted.
"If it involves Sweetie Belle it does!"
"Oh I see, it's ok for you to yell at Rumble and make him feel like shit but if someone does something to Sweetie Belle then that's bad right!? All this and you still uphold a double standard!"
"The difference is you barely know Rumble, but WE know Sweetie Belle"
Rumble groaned, "Come on, we were so close!"
Babs glared at Diamond Tiara, "This chick is causing more trouble"
Rumble got in the middle of the fighting, "Come on girls, you're only letting Diamond Tiara win, so Sweetie made a mistake, it's no reason to-"
"Hey don't blame Sweetie Belle! You're the one who banged her!" Scootaloo said.
Rumble groaned, "Seriously? We just talked about this, like literally! I didn't manipulate her!"
"Whatever, I just want all of you to stay away from Sweetie Belle"
Babs scoffed, "Man scoots, what are you in love with her or something?"
Scootaloo got in Babs' face, "Watch it Seed!"
Babs raised her eyebrow, "Get out of mah face before I make you"
Diamond started laughing, "I just love watching blank flanks fight, you're like my little puppets"
Rumble groaned in frustration, to think even Lightning Dust, someone who's actually endangered lives, had more honor and good in her than this little brat.
Apple Bloom glared, "I'm getting real tired of you messing up our lives, if you don't leave I'll...I'll..."
"You'll what? Hit me? Make your family look bad? It takes on bad act from you for me to be able to slander your family so bad they'll have to practically give away your products cause no one will want to buy products from a family of nutjobs"
Apple Bloom growled, Rumble started feeling tense, he doesn't like anyone talking to her like that.
"Between you, your turncoat cousin and your lunatic sister, your family is a mess, you're lucky your parents aren't alive to see what disgraces you've become"
Silver looked concerned, once again Diamond has brought up the parent card to Apple Bloom, who looked like she was gonna explode, with the other crusaders glaring a hole through her.
"Lets go Silvy, we should leave Filly Face Rumble to his group of Chubby", looks to Babs, "Flightless", looks to Scootaloo, "Whiney", looks to Sweetie Belle, "ust plain Dirty", looks to Apple Bloom, "Group of pathetic and lowly bunch of whores"
POW!
Diamond's tiara crown went flying through the air, with Diamond Tiara hitting the ground in an impact, blood gushing out her mouth, Silver Spoon horrified at the sight, seeing her best friend struck down by a strong blow.
We look to see the culprit of the punch, Rumble, who was still in stance, essentially huffing steam, the most intense and angry look on his face, something which horrified the fillies, they're not used to Rumble being angry, especially not the viscious look in his eyes, even when he was mad before he's never looked like this, the cute little boy had been replaced with a savage beast.
Apple Bloom was the first to approach Rumble, "Rumble...?"
Rumble shook his head and held it, "Man, what a rush"
He looked down and saw Diamond Tiara on the floor, bloody mouth and all, "Wow, must have hit her harder than I thought"
Diamond started crying from the pain and humiliation, Rumble had some degree of guilt but he honestly didn't care for th emost part, he felt she deserved that, the others also pitied her a bit, except Babs, who wishes she had just done that sooner.
"That's my colt! Taking charge like a real badass guy!" Babs boasted.
Apple Bloom then noticed tww mares behind Rumble and her pupils shrank, "Oh no, Rumble, turn around"
Rumble turned around and saw Twilight Sparkle & Cherilee, and not just them, the other mares had gone back to the area as well, especially once they heard some yelling.
"Rumble...how could you?" Cherilee asked.
Rumble's stomach turned, "But Miss Cherilee, she had it coming! She said so many rotten things!"
Twilight glared, "I thought I made it clear, no fighting, no means of violence whatsoever"
"But Princess Twilight!"
"No buts Rumble!" Cherilee said.
The others arrived to the area.
"Damn Rumble, you really knocked her out!" Cloudchaser said.
"Wow, first you have sex, then you're kicking ass...you're really growing up", Rainbow said.
"Yeah, so proud of you", Thunderlane said.
Cherilee glared, "This isn't a joke!"
"Ok so he hit a foal, kids are like that sometimes", Cloudchaser argued.
"He didn't just hit a foal, he hit a filly, a colt should never put his hands on a filly", Cherilee said.
Rainbow, Thunderlane & Cloudchaser simply gave an unconvinced stare.
"Seriously, you're going with that?" Rainbow asked.
"Yeah, I mean what's the difference if it's a filly hitting a filly, or a colt hitting a colt? I mean these girls once beat him down too so colt vs. filly violence isn't unheard of", Thunderlane said.
"Those are all bad, but a colt hitting a filly is far worse", Cherliee said.
"Worse than someone like Babs, no offence kid, you know I'm cool with you, but someone like Babs, who's bigger than Rumble, not calling you fat Babs, and stronger hitting a weaker kid like Rumble? No offence Rumble, you know I love you", Cloudchaser said.
"I don't make the rules, but I do know that in the end a colt should never under any circumstance hit a filly, Rumble you come with me and Princess Twilight this instant while we decide a fitting punishment for you"
Thunderlane stepped in, "Whoa hold on, if you're gonna pass any type of punishment on my brother, me and my friends are gonna be there to observe it and make sure it's not made worse cause of this colt vs. filly thing, hell I once fought Trixie & Lightning Dust"
"And that was awful of you Thunderlane, a stallion putting his hooves on a mare"
Thunderlane glared, "Are you stupid or something? They started it! Just like this brat was starting shit with my brother!"
Cherilee glared back, "You're jsut making things worse for him"
Cloudchaser stepped forward, "I swear if you make things 100x worse for RUmble than any of these kids got you're gonna make an enemy of me!"
Twilight stepped in, "Cloudchaser, I'm getting tired of your attitude!"
"Oh really? In that case, fight me Twilight, right here, right now! I want to knock some sense into you!" Cloudchaser got into a fighting stance.
"I'm not gonna fight you...you wouldn't last 5 seconds anyway", Twilight said.
All the ponies stared down a moment before Applejack stepped in.
"Land Sakes! Listen just take all these foals to mah barn and we'll all settle things there! And let's try to be reasonable!"
They all glared more before heading Applejack's words.
"Lets go", Twilight said.
Everypony marched off to Sweet Apple Acres, hoping to fix this mess.
She had it coming
