While that was going on, Atticus, Mo, and Bobby, who had changed back after reentering the school, along with the human Mane Six. It was going to take a lot of work. It looked like a hurricane had hit the gym, even the disco ball was shattered. Pinkie Pie wished she had something called a party cannon to decorate everything really fast. But it would take a lot of helping hands to clean this mess up and luckily, there was nine of them to help spruce the place back up in time for the dance.
"This is going to be a challenge, but I'm sure that if we work together, we can get this place cleaned up in no time." Bobby said.
"Let's do it, y'all!" Applejack cheered.
"Absolutely!" Rarity chimed in.
"Rock on!" Rainbow Dash added.
"Yes indeedily!" Pinkie Pie chirped.
"Yay!" Fluttershy quietly cheered.
"You know it!" Atticus cheered.
"Let's do it to it!" Mo added in.
"We can do it!" Bobby chirped.
They all waited for Twilight to join in and eventually she did, and this set them all to work together to clean up the gym now in time for the dance so no one would be disappointed and they could get Twilight and Spike back to Ponyville where they belong.
Twilight then went to the closet to see if there were any brooms. In fact there were. As the main group got to cleaning, there were even some other students including Flash who decided to help them out. This would make their work done before the final bell would even let out.
'Everyone is sure to vote for Twilight now.' Bobby thought.
Silver Spoon was even helping, but she didn't seem to have Diamond Tiara with her.
"Silver Spoon," Mo came up to her. "What're you doing here?"
"I wanna help..." the silver girl told her as she clutched to a broom. "I... I also wanna be friends with Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Bell... But... Diamond Tiara won't let me."
"You can be friends with them by your own choice." Atticus said.
"No, I can't..." Silver Spoon pouted. "I'll never get to do anything cool or have fun with DT again..."
"Is Diamond Tiara really your friend or is she just manipulating you?" Mo asked, seeming familiar with the situation.
Silver Spoon stared at the floor, shuffling her foot. "We usually do our homework together because I'm so smart... She asks me about answers..."
"It sounds like she's manipulating you then being your friend." Atticus said.
"No, we're friends, really!" Silver Spoon cried.
"What else do you do with her then?" Bobby asked.
Silver Spoon tried to think, but only one other thing came to mind. "Make fun of Apple Bloom, Sweetie Bell, and Scootaloo..."
"And have you ever suggested to stop making fun of them?" Atticus asked.
"I just don't know what to do... Home's no walk in the park either..." Silver Spoon walked, rubbing her arm. "Dad walked out on us and Mom blames me... She's nice every once in a while, but sometimes, when she gets home, she gets mad at me for no reason... My only escape is school and going to Diamond Tiara's house... I don't even have a mansion like her."
"Have you ever asked Diamond Tiara if she really is your friend?" Atticus asked. "And if you weren't smart, would you two still be friends?"
"Not really..." Silver Spoon twirled a finger around her braided ponytail, shrugging her shoulders.
"Well, a true friend wouldn't care if you were smart or not they would care about you for who you truly are." Atticus said.
"That's right and a friend wouldn't ask you for the answers on a test or a question they would want them to pass or fail on their own." Bobby added.
"Really?" Silver Spoon asked like that was news to her. "Hmm..."
"You coming to the dance though?" Mo asked.
Silver Spoon smiled. "Wouldn't miss it. I even actually made my own dress."
"Cool, can't wait to see of how you look in it." Atticus said.
Silver Spoon giggled, she looked like she was happier with these friends than with Diamond Tiara.
"SILVER SPOON!" Diamond Tiara snapped, making everyone look at her as she stormed through the gym, shaking her fists. "What do you think you're doing here!?"
"Helping...?" Silver Spoon looked scared as she backed up from the girl who was a threat in their age group as Sunset Shimmer was feared by everybody else.
"I don't think so," Diamond Tiara snarled. "That's peasant's work!"
But then Atticus got in her way to stop her from coming any closer to Silver Spoon.
"She can help us clean if she wants you are not the boss of her and you can't tell her what to do." He said, glaring down at the spoiled brat.
"I'm the boss of everybody," Diamond Tiara glared at him. "If you don't get out of my way, I'll have my daddy sue you for every penny you're worth!"
"And if you don't leave Silver Spoon and everyone you've bullied alone, then I'll make sure your father finds out that you haven't been nice to everyone." Atticus said.
Diamond Tiara snorted, rolling her blue eyes. "Come on, Silver Spoon... We're going to the mall to pick out nice dresses!" she grinned.
Silver Spoon blinked, then looked at her best friend. "But I made us dresses, remember?"
"Oh, Silver Spoon, you don't know since you're not as rich as me," Diamond Tiara rolled her eyes again with a mean girl smile. "Homemade dresses are for poor people who can't afford nice things... I bet that APPLE Bloom's got her granny to make her somethin', or Sweetie Bell with her sister's seaming... Not to mention Scootaloo since she's an orphan."
This made Atticus tighten his fists, wanting to make her pay for saying things like that.
"Come on, Silver Spoon..." Diamond Tiara grabbed Silver Spoon by the arm and dragged her out of the gym.
Silver Spoon frowned, looking back to the others. She sometimes wished she wouldn't be here right now. She never did like her life due to the bullying and the abuse from her family. There was no way out for her though. Bu then she remembered what Atticus and Bobby said and decided that enough was enough. Silver Spoon found herself and decided to come out of her shell at last.
Mo, Atticus, and Bobby watched through the closed gym doors as Silver Spoon seemed to be yelling at Diamond Tiara and letting out necessary anger. She then walked off in a huff while Diamond Tiara looked totally shocked and unable to reply with a snooty comeback like she would give any other student.
"She made the right choice." Bobby said.
"Yeah, I guess she did." Mo smiled in admiration for Silver Spoon's decisions.
"Now, let's get ready for the dance, it won't be long now." Bobby said to the others once the gym was all cleaned up.
However, the women in charge of the school came in then.
'Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna are bound to be impressed.' Atticus thought.
Celestia clapped to get their attention as Luna carried a box. "All right, everyone," the main principal started. "Fall Formal is back on for this evening." she announced, making everyone in the gym cheer, they were able to put it right back on schedule with the help of fixing up the gym. "So, you'd better get out of here and start getting ready. Oh, and don't forget to cast your ballots."
'There's no argument for sure, they're going to be voting for Twilight.' Atticus thought.
Bobby, Mo, and Atticus put their votes in as well obviously for Twilight. Things were going to change in Canterlot High now that was for sure. The human Mane Six agreed as well to vote for the newest girl in school.
