A/N: Finally another chapter of Stefani and the wishing jewel! Before I start I want to thank Defender54 for putting this story on his favorites list and ThatCrazyItalian for following this story! I really appreciate the support for this story. I also just wanted to say that this story is my second priority behind Cartoon High, I really love that story and even thought I love this story two I find it easier to write for cartoon high than this story.
By the way, there will be a forth wall break in this chapter so it will look like this for me: Just bold, and this for the other person: Forth wall break
Anyway… On with the story!
After a long weekend with her sister, Stefani was ready to begin the race for the wishing jewel tomorrow! Stefani looked at the clock and expected it to say 12:00 PM or something but was shocked to find it said 7:30!
"WHAT!? It's already tomorrow!?" Stefani said, attracting the attention of some of the people at the train station. She looked up at the sky and saw the dark sky and wondered.
"If it's already 7:30, why is the sky still dark?" The little alicorn asked a random pony while trying her best to hide her wings.
"Oh, didn't you hear? Yesterday Princess Celestia announced that she would be raising the sun a little late today." The orange unicorn said and Stef ran for her life.
"Got to go, got to go, GOT TO GO!" Stef said, or screamed rather, as she ran away. She was NOT going to be late on her first day of testing! Stef made a choice; she unfurled her wings and took off to the best of her ability. It felt great to fly and Stefani really wanted to enjoy it but, due to circumstances, couldn't. She flew to her house faster than she had ever flown and felt powerful, she could make it on time, she could win the race for the wishing jewel, she could do any*THUMP*
"Ugh… Why?" Stef mumbled as her face collided with the ground below, she then checked to make sure she hadn't broken a wing or something.
"Stefani, what are you doing, you're supposed to be at school already!?" Her mother, a raspberry unicorn with red and brown hair, said to which Stefani responded "Sorry mom, got to go! Do you have my books?" Stef didn't even give her mother a chance to answer as she grabbed the book bag with her magic and ran out the door.
Stef looked at the clock in front of the school when she arrived and it read 7:56. "Oh thank goodness I'm not late!" Stef said relived and ran down the hall. She rushed to her first class just in time for the bell to ring.
********************** (After Class) ****************************************************
"Can you believe I was almost late!?" Stefani asked her friends after their first class was over.
"Do you think that it was sabotage?" Aquata asked and Stefani nodded her head.
"I don't think so before I fell asleep I was…" Stefani's voice trailed off.
"You were what?" Sunrise asked questionably, like an angry mother.
"I may or may not have been studying till 12:00…" Stef said and looked away in shame.
"WHAT?!" both her friends said in shock. Stefani never stayed up past 10:00! Her body couldn't handle the lack of sleep.
"I was just worried, everyponys counting on me to win and what if I don't? My mom expects me to be great like Madi, but what if I never compare to her? It's just so much pressure, I can't handle it…" Stef said, stopping in her hoof steps and looking down at nothing.
"It's ok, we understand that you really try to compare to your sisters… wait, what about Caroline?" Sunrise said catching Stefani off guard.
(Stefani Sunrise Aquata)
"What about Caroline?"
"You said that you couldn't compare to MADI, what about Caroline?"
"I don't have to compare myself to Caroline."
"Why not?"
"Well, uh, she's not like me or Madi. She was kind of the odd one out, that's why she doesn't have to live up to mom's standards, over time she lowered them."
"Wow, rude much?"
"Huh?"
They suddenly stopped, they had reached there destination, math class. They entered with cation, one wrong move and they could all be dead. There was a sudden scream in the background, most likely one of the previous victims of… (Forth wall breaks)
Um, Excuse me Caroline?
Yes, Stefani?
Stop making math class sound like a place of death right now!
Or what!?
Or I'm telling mom you read fanfiction in the middle of the night instead of sleeping!
How dare YOU!?
I'll do it RIGHT NOW!
FINE!
Ugh…*grumbles: Hi I'm Stefani and I have to make sure that I suck all the fun out of writing*
And I don't talk like that!
YES YOU DO!
(Back to the story)
*Ahem* Stefani and her friends dropped their conversation and walked into math class. Stefani wasn't that bad at math (I'm way better than you! STEFANI!) In fact, she thought it was her best subject. She was about to take her seat until a particular alicorn pushed her out of the way to get the last seat.
"Oh, well will you look at that, it's the flop princess!" Prim said to her group of 'friends'
"Good morning Prim…" Stef said sarcastically and took her seat.
(After class)
Stef got home saying hi to her mom and almost immediately collapsing on the couch.
"Did you have a good day at school, Stefani?"
"Uh huh… Just tired, lots of testing…" Stef said, half asleep… oh never mind… she's asleep.
Her mother sighed as she looked at her daughter asleep, always on the couch.
"Honey, it's time to go to bed."
"Uh, go away!" Stef said in reply
"Honey, you have school tomorrow and can't just sleep on the couch!"
"Leave me ALONE…" Stef yelled and went back to sleep.
He mother sighed and levitated her with her light red magic, all the way to her bed.
"Goodnight honey"
(Scene Change)
Prim went up the stairs, paying no attention to her parents. She hadn't done that good today, no good at math at least. She had to find some way to get her grades up if she ever wanted to beat Stef.
Or maybe, she could find some way to bring Stefani's grades down.
Yes, if she got a little help she would be able to, then she could win the wishing jewel and all would be good!
"I'm going to make you proud mom…" Prim said before falling asleep, her plan already in her head.
That's all folks, so just a little info and an announcement:
The dialogue part where Stefani is rambling about how she feels she can never compare to her older sister is actually how I fell, so don't make fun
The whole 'Caroline lowered mom's standards' thing is based on my feelings and my sister's feelings
The person that broke the forth wall was not the pony Stefani, but rather my sister in real life that Stefani (the pony) was based on
While writing this chapter I listened to: fall out boy, cool kids by echo smith, and good morning Baltimore (from hairspray)
This chapter is 1,002 words
Ok, now for the announcement: This story (as well as cartoon high) will be going on a short hiatus until summer, I will first (maybe) Upload cartoon high then stop. But this story is still ongoing, just had to change the plot a little and school is awful so…
_Caroline the pony
And Stefani!
GO AWAY STEF!
