(ooc: Thread is same day as "A Cupcake is not a Hat", for those that are not in that thread)
Dawn, the young filly pegasus, was seen hanging out at the edge of the Everfree Forest, her eyes narrowed upon the forest itself. She was trying to contemplate if she should actually go in or just stay on the outskirts of the forest.
Dawn's gaze did shift to Ponyville only lightly before looking back to the forest again, taking a deep breath before exhaling "Here goes nothing...." she spoke to herself as she started to head towards the forest itself....

As it turned out, Dawn wasn't the only pony hanging around the forest that day. With nothing better to do, Sweetie Belle had decided to see what was so bad about the forest. Apple Bloom had gone inside twice before from what she understood, so it couldn't be that bad. Besides, what Rarity didn't know wouldn't hurt her. The little unicorn approached with caution, glancing to and fro as she walked closer, and came to a stop near the entrance of the forest. So far nothing seemed to be happening. Sweetie Belle had just missed Dawn making her way inside, so it appeared as though Sweetie Belle was alone. Not a bad thing, but she sure wished she had company.
"Well... here goes." Sweetie Belle said. She took a couple of steps forward, but then she came to a stop again when she finally spotted the other filly. What was another pony doing so close to the forest? Well, no reason Sweetie couldn't find out. "Hey! What brings you here?" Sweetie Belle asked.

Dawn stopped as she heard Sweetie Belle's voice. Well, at least it was her friend as she turned around, giving the unicorn a quick smile "Oh you know, just passing away the time with some exploring, that's all. I didn't really expect for you to really show up either" she then paused, thinking for a moment and grinned.
The pegasus filly walked over to Sweetie Belle and leaned forward towards her, inches away from her face "But now that you're here, we can actually explore together, that is, if you're not....scared to do so" she spoke, still grinning away to Sweetie Belle "I mean, it's just a forrest is all" she added in and very quickly, gave Sweetie Belle a kiss on the nose before she turned and started to trot further into the forrest.

"Whoa! Wait a second here!" Skidding up towards the fillies was a rather clumsy looking zebra. Her glasses hung down on her nose as she rushed up to them. She'd seen the fillies travelling towards the everfree forest and knew she couldn't just sit there while they walked to their doom. So antisocial and nervous as she was she'd galloped over, breathing heavilly. Out of shape zebra didn't run that much if she didn't have too.
"It is NOT just a forest! The animals care for themselves! The weather changes by itself! The plants grow all on their own!" She stomped at the ground, "There's no way I, as a respionsible adult, should let you go anywhere near the Everfree forest!"

Dawn groaned as she stopped, looking at the zebra in front of her "Scared?" was all she could ask "I've been into the forest a few times as it is, I know what's in the forest as it is" she adeed in, groaning again.
Though she did look to the side a little as well "I've even stayed in there a few times overnight" she then looked back to Zee again, rolling her eyes lightly as she stepped past Zee and still, continued on towards the forest still.
(ooc: Course, feel free to still stop her XD)

Eyes narrowed as the zebra stomped in front of the filly, snorting softly. This bad tempered Mare was not one to cross. Femme glared at her. "Oh really?" She mused, "And just how do you expect to escape the dangers that await the forest? What about the poison joke?" She stomped at the ground. "I'm warning yo, pony, I'm gonna...go back and tell someone if you don't listen to me!"

Dawn just stopped in her tracks as she looked to the ground....annoyed. The zebra was not leaving her alone before she looked up at Zee, eyes did seem to narrow at her slightly. her gaze glanced over to Sweetie Belle for a second then to Zee again, sighing "Excuse me...."
And with that, the filly pegasus walked over to Sweetie Belle, grabbing her by the tail in her teeth and pulled her off to the side to talk to her by herself "That zebra is not going to leave us alone. I was just hoping that we could at least hang out together and all that, just us two, not letting a zebra join us and pester us and all that....after all, you know how I feel about other ponies in general and....stuff....I mean, meeting you and being your friend was difficult enough as it was...." she spoke low enough so that only Sweetie Belle could hear her.

Oblivious Sweetie Belle didn't see much of a problem letting Zee come along. After all, she didn't know what sorts of things lay in wait for them. Having a zebra along might have been a good thing. "I don't know... maybe she should come along." Sweetie Belle said. She didn't know what Poison Joke was, but it didn't sound good. The idea of being alone with the pegasus did sound all right, but the little unicorn didn't like the idea of being on their own in unknown territory. Apple Bloom would have been preferable to a strange zebra, but Zee didn't look bad.
"She might know the area better than us. What's the harm in letting her come along?" Sweetie Belle asked. She glanced back at Zee, offering a friendly little smile as she did, and then looked back to Dawn. "I mean, we don't know this area. Apple Bloom does. I don't think it'd be a bad idea to have this zebra, whatever her name is, come along. Just so we know where we're going." she said.

Dawn just groaned back "Do we have to?" she asked back, glancing to Zee as well, then to Sweetie Belle again "I mean I suppose it wont be too bad if she comes along....but I'm still not so sure....I'd rather it just be us two...." she added in, glancing to the ground with a little sigh "And not on one of those date things either" she added in with a light scoff.
It was still as if the young filly pegasus just didn't like anypony else whom wasn't Sweetie Belle right now. But as to why, it was just hard to say at the moment.

Gruffly, the striped femme gave a scoff towards the two fillies. She stomped her foot in the ground and shook her mane wildly. "I'd rather you not go in at all," she sneered, "But if you insist on going through the forest, you need an escort. A guide. I've explored Manehatten a bunch of times, how hard could a forrest be?" She trotted up beside the girls. "Besides, they would kill me in town if anything happened to two fillies like you! I barely have any friends as it is! I'd never make any if you two went missing and I could have helped!"

The alicorn filly hadn't really thought of what she wanted to do that day. All she knew was that she wanted to make sure nopony found her. Little alicorn hooves clip-clopped the ground lightly once she reached the edge of the Everfree forest. Voices. Well, there went her plans of being alone to wander the forest aimlessly. Perhaps if she went in alone-provided she came back alive- she would earn bragging rights.
Apparently, fate had other plans for the filly. Her stomach churned at the sight of a trio of equines. Pegasus filly, unicorn filly, and a zebra. Perhaps she could sneak on by. Oh who was she kidding, who wasn't going to notice an alicorn filly walk on by?
What really surprised her was when the zebra said she didn't have any friends. This caused ner to simply stand easily seen, thoughts headed towards a dark area. She looked older than a foal. What if Fizzy ended up not earning any friends?

Diamond Tiara noticed the crowd of ponies around. "Might as well go see what all the fuss is about." she said with a sigh. "Can't be anything good if its not about me!" however, seeing another filly without a cutie mark brightened her interest as she smirked.
"Hey Blank Flanks!"

Sure, it was nice with just her and Sweetie Belle, then the zebra had shown up, which was....okay in the end, but now a filly alicorn and then Diamond Tiara, which already started to unnerve the filly pegasus a bit as she took a few involuntary steps backwards.
Dawn hadn't had the chance to at least, snap at Zee as she was called a blank flank by Diamond Tiara as she grumbled a little to herself, leaning into Sweetie Belle to just whisper to her "You see, this is why I'd rather it be just us two and nopony else...." she glanced again, at those that were around, not even wanting to retaliate to what Diamond Tiara had said just yet.

Post by Comet Fire on Jan 8, 2012 0:25:51 GMT -5
Comet Fire really had nothing to do that day, as she reclined upon a nearby cloud, her hooves hanging over one side of its fluffy sides. At the sudden commotion down below, her ears perked up, yet her eyes did not open at all.
There she stayed, her ears up, but her eyes closed. Once Diamond Tiara came in, however, Comet Fire's irritation level was up in a high range, prompting her eyes to open, and her wings to unfurl.
The blue-purple pegasi soared down from her cloud, landing just before Diamond Tiara, with a small scowl on her face, her teal eyes narrowing at the filly. "Blank Flanks? First of all, you shouldn't be teasing other ponies about who's got a cutie mark or not." Comet Fire growled.

"Oh really. Well, why not?!" Diamond Tiara said. "I am not doing anything wrong, i am just stating the truth, their flanks are blank. Therefore it is only natural to call them Blank Flanks!" she said with a huff. She was not about to let this pegasus with silver mane ruin her fun. After all, no one ordered her around
