Just so you guys know, I typed both this chapter and the previous one on my new iPad, so if there are any mistakes, blame it on the fact that although I received it and a keyboard on my Confirmation Day, (May 31) I still don't quite have the hang of typing on it.

Chapter 6

Applejack arrived at her destination, a boutique almost as beautiful as the unicorn who ran it.

Rarity Belle is an excellent fashion designer, and the Element of Generosity. She has a beautiful light grey coat, curly indigo hair and a matching tail, moderate azure eyes, and her horn turns light cornflower blue when using her magic. She lives with her little sister Sweetie Belle, and her cat Opalescence. Her cutie mark is 3 blue diamonds.

Applejack knocked on the door. She then heard a voice.

"Sweetie Belle, be a dear and answer the door."

"Alright." A little voice sighed, and used her pale light greyish sap green aura to unlock the door. Her reluctance soon turned into delight, however, as she saw who was at the door.

"Hi, Applejack! What brings you here?"

Sweetie Belle is a unicorn, like her big sister. Their coat colours are the same, but Sweetie Belle's mane is greyish mulberry with light greyish rose streaks. Her eyes are pale light greyish harlequin and her horn turns pale light sap green when using her magic.

"I actually need to talk to your big sister, if you don't mind."

"Hang on."

"RARITY!"

"WHAT?!"

"It's Applejack, she needs to talk to you!"

Rarity dropped what she was doing, and walked over to the door. Applejack noticed a few stray hairs, which she chalked up to being due to some stress.

The elder ponies went outside to talk, leaving Sweetie Belle some time to go crusading. However, she made sure that Rarity saw her leave, her older sister being stressed enough as it is.

Once the Elements of Honesty and Generosity could rest assured that Sweetie Belle was out of earshot, Applejack gave Rarity the reason for her arrival.

"It's Big Mac's birthday in a couple weeks, and I was wondering if you could perhaps design a new outfit for him and the rest of the gang to wear at his surprise party. Or, if that's too much trouble, you could always fix our Gala outfits."

Rarity took both options into consideration. She had an outfit that was 75% completed. She still had Big Mac's measurements from when she made his Ponytones uniform, but she wondered if they were still accurate. Rarity was considering making new dresses for her friends and for herself, but her latest masterpiece really milked her dry. Luckily though, she had enough fabric to fix the dresses that the Mane 6 had worn to the Grand Galloping Gala, the most elaborate event of the year of which they attended, and had a terrible experience.

"I've made my decision. I will repair the dresses. But first, I must ask you

something."

"Go ahead."

"Have his measurements changed from when I made his Ponytones uniform?"

"Uh, I don't think so."

"Don't worry, darling, I'll come up with an excuse to measure him, and get right to work!"

"Thanks, sugar cube. I knew I could count on you."

Applejack and Rarity embraced, and the Element of Honesty set off for the edge of town, where another good friend of hers lives.
