Ch. 8: Chesuring Opal
Sweetie Belle eventually came to a large tree with signs pointing to multiple paths.
"Which way did he go?" asked Sweetie Belle in shock, "There must be hundreds o ways."
As she put a finger to her chin in thought, there was multiple colored lights shining among the forest.
Sweetie Belle then noticed the lights and gasped in shock.
"Wow." said Sweetie Belle in awe and wonder.
Just then, a wide smile appeared near her, causing her to yelp.
The smile purre like a cat and, ironically, had mist shifted around it, revealing itself to actually be a cat. A female cat.
Sweetie Belle's eyes wided in shock as she wiped them before asking, "Opalescence?"
The cat purred in confusion.
"Oh great," said Sweetie Belle in exasperation, "Not only is Fluttershy gonna get upset over her bunny running away, but now Rarity is gonna get upset over her cat running away too."
The cat only purred in even more confusion.
"You are coming with me," Sweetie said sternly while reaching for Opal, only for the cat to disappear, much to her surprise and the cat laughs mischeviously.
"How are you doing that?"
As Sweetie Belle searched for her, she was oblivious to the fact that Opan had appeared on her head. Deciding to have some fun with the girl, the cat shed its fur down the back of Sweetie Belle's shirt,
Sweetie Belle suddenly felt an intense itch on her back and, without warning, she scratched her back to kingdom come. While doing this, Opal disappeared from her head.
"Geez," said Sweetie Belle, "it's bad enough I have to find 2 animals, but now I have an itchy back to scratch.
She eventually resorted to scratch her back against the ground. She heard laughter and looked up and saw the cat snickering in the tree. Sweetie gave an angry look before giving an evil smirk and kicked the tree, causing Opal to lose her balance and fall off the tree before landing in Sweetie Belle's arms.
Opal struggled to get free from her grasp and even tried to disappear, but the pressure Sweetie Belle was giving her proved to much of a distraction, so she gave up.
Holding Opal to her face, Sweetie Belle said sternly, "Like I said, you're coming with me."
Sweetie got out some rabbit fur and held them to Opal's nose.
"Find the scent," Sweetie Belle said.
With an exasperated sigh, Opal sniffed the rabbit fur and suddenly, her nose came off her and went to the Northwestern way.
"That must be where Angel is!"
With that, Sweetie Belle and the reluctant Opal went out to find Angel.
TO BE CONINTUED...
