Hey, my Rainbows! X3

***

So I've decided, based off of @Rainbowtwilight78360's comment, to have Dashie tell her BFF's about the Silver Tongue incident, but only after she sees him and the rest of the "Main 6" ask her why she looks terrified. :) Thanks for the idea, @Rainbowtwilight78360! XD

---

Note(s):

1. (12-1-14/12:10pm) The "Main 6" have seen each other, and many of the other characters, at different points in their lives.

- A.J., Rarity, and Pinkie went to Ponyville Elemetary together (Pinkie was 8 when she met A.J. and Rarity). They graduated 8th grade together too.

- Octavia went to the Canterlot Academy For Gifted Children, so Twilight, who also went there until Celestia became her mentor, saw her often as a child.

- Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash attended Cloudsdale Academy together until Fluttershy was homeschooled (her parents were tired of her being bullied).

- Since Rainbow Dash was her BFF (and bodyguard, lol), she saw Flutters outside of school. The two girls even spent holidays together, along with Gilda, who later became a bully (Gilda, as you know, has gone back to being BFF's with Flutters, Dash, and the rest of the "Main 6").

- A.J. and Dash met when -

You know what? I'll explain all this in my MLP prequel (Yeah, I'm writin' a prequel! XD).

2. (12-2-14/8:43am) I am loving the suggestions, @TheCreepyCat, @mlplover17, and @Rainbowtwilight78360! XD

Onward, guys! ^^

||Twilight Sparkle's POV: 20% Hotter Than Us (Seriously)/Dash's Secret (What's she hiding?)||

{Continuing From The Last Chapter}

      Dash, forever the macho, "I show no weakness" type, quickly dons an "I'm fine, I totally didn't just space out on you and silently freak out" expression. Fluttershy is not convinced, and neither am I. But it's gonna take a lot to get Dash to spit out what's bothering her, so I'll just wait 'til she's ready. The bell rings, signaling the end of our lunch period. Dash says,

"I'm fine, guys. Let's just get to class."

"Rainbow Dash, A-K-A, Little Miss 'School Is Boring', wants to go to class?," Applejack asks incredulously, smirking, "The world will now explode. (*Looks at her watch on her left wrist*) Any day now."

"Oh, shut up," Dash says, nudging Applejack's right arm playfully.

      We laugh, happy that Dash is back and acting like her usual self. The only one who didn't laugh was Rarity. We ignore her as we walk to our next class. Dash's sky-blue, cropped varsity jacket is hanging off of her elbows, revealing her white, cropped T-shirt. Her Cutie Mark is on it and it's shiny, like it's metallic or something. She and Applejack are talking about what's been happening at school for the last few days.

"The Homecoming Committee and I pushed Homecoming Week to this week," Pinkie says, smiling at Dashie, who smiles.

"Why?," Dash asks Pinkie.

"We can't have Homecoming Week without the Queen of this school!," Pinkie says in a "Are you kidding me, Dashie?" tone.

      Dash gives Pinkie the most dazzling grin she's ever given. She hugs Pinkie, saying,

"Thanks, Pinks. I owe you one."

"Don't mention it, Dashie!," Pinkie replies, hugging Dash back with the same amount of enthusiasm.

      I feel so giddy now! As we walk to class, Dash is still wearing that same smile. Her abs are making me a bit jealous, but I'm not as jelly as Rarity is. Dash has proven Silver's dumb list to be true with her smile and her figure. Dash is 20% hotter than the rest of us (seriously, lol).

[Time Passes]

{3:50pm, Near The Lockers Of The "Main 6"}

      Dash sighs with relief. The rest of the day went well for her, regardless of the fact that she got to CHS late. The girls and I, even the pissed Rarity, grab our things from our lockers together.

"Man, I'm glad school is over," Dash says, straightening her jacket onto her shoulders and swinging her red, winged backpack over her left shoulder.

"Me too!," Pinkie says excitedly, "Now the real fun begins!"

"What 'real' fun?," Applejack asks Pinkie with a "What the hell are you planning?" expression and making air quotes with her long fingers.

"HOMECOMING!," Pinkie tells us loudly, making us flinch.

"Speaking of which," Rarity begins in a "I am very stuck-up" tone, "I'll be running for junior Homecoming Queen. (*Smiling and squee-bouncing*) I can't wait! Crystal Rainbow said she's running for Homecoming Princess. I hope we're CHS royalty together!"

"I can't wait for the dance!," I say happily, and Pinkie nods in agreement.

"I can't wait for the big game!," Dash says excitedly, making us all roll our eyes playfully.

"Typical Rainbow Dash," Rarity says, her momentary happiness gone, "It's a wonder you're actually a girl!"

      We all gasp, wondering what Dash's reaction is gonna be. Dash says to Rarity calmly, her trademark, devious smirk on her face,

"You are sooo not worth my anger and energy, Beauty Queen. (To the rest of us) I'm sorry, guys, but I can't handle her anymore. If you wanna hang out with her, that's your problem, but I'm done. My body can't take drama right now."

"But we're the 'Main Six'! Not the 'Main Five'!," I say, desperately trying to glue our crumbling friendship back together, "We're already being split up by our principal, which, now that I think about it, makes no sense! (To Rarity) But does your unnecessary jealousy have to split us up too?!"

"Unnecessary?!," Rarity asks angrily, "I was once known as the 'Snow White' of Ponyville! Because I'm pale and the 'fairest of them all'! I have been called 'Snow White' since I was a little girl! I won the title of 'Little Miss Equestria' when I was seven!"

"I know you won, Rarity," Dash tells Rarity angrily, "I was there. If you wanna get all technical, if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have won at all!"

"Wait," I say, confused, "What?"

"The Little Miss Equestria Pageant," Applejack says, an annoyed expression on her face as she leans against her locker, "Since I went to Ponyville Elementary with (*Points to Rarity with her left thumb*) Beauty Queen over there, I've been stuck with her my whole life. Anyway, she wanted me to support her as a friend, so I let her drag me to that event. Durin' the pageant's talent competition, (*Snickers, pointing to Dash*) Little Miss Cloudsdale -"

"My mother wanted a beauty queen for a daughter," Dash says angrily, "Don't ask. (To Applejack, who's laughing) Shut up, A.J.!"

"Sorry, sugar cube," Applejack tells Dash, trying to stop laughing (I can't help but laugh too, lol), "It's just hard to believe that you, of all people, were a 'Little Miss' anything! Anyway, durin' the talent competition, Dash was doin' some crazy, amazin' stunts with the typical baton twirlin' mixed in there somewhere, but then, just as Dash was about to catch the baton, somethin' happened and she sprained her ankle. (To Dash) You are so accident prone sometimes, sugar cube!"

"I know," Dash says, frowning a little, "Anyway, Rarity and I were the best. But because I fell on stage (*We gasp*), I lost points. The tiara went to Rarity. I didn't care, though. Seriously. I don't care about girly pageants."

"So you're saying that, if you hadn't hurt your ankle, I wouldn't have won?," Rarity asks in a hurt tone, "Are you saying that I only won by default? That I didn't win because the judges thought I was beautiful?!"

"That's right!," Dash says angrily, "But, Rarity, I didn't meet you until that night! You won the 'Little Miss Ponyville' title on your own! You are beautiful, Rare! So stop bitchin' about it! I thought you deserved that tiara myself! That's why I totally faked that ankle injury!"

      We gasp and Dash puts her hand over her mouth. She removes her hands and asks,

"Did I really just admit that?"

"Uh, yes!," Rarity says, smiling at Dash, "You did that for me?"

"Yeah," Dash says, looking at her sky-blue, winged sneakers, "That, and I wanted out. I told you: I don't care about pageants. I don't really pay attention to beauty like you do, Rare."

      Rarity squeals and hugs Dash, her tears soaking Dash's right shoulder. Dash asks,

"Are you done being bitchy?"

      Rarity nods and all six of us laugh. Dash hugs Rarity back. We hear a couple of voices and then our boyfriends walk by. Soarin' looks at us, his face brightens up (like the freakin' sun, lol), and he smiles.

"DASHIE?!," Soarin' yells happily as he hugs Dash tightly, "When did you get here?"

"Hey, Soar," Dash tells him as she returns the hug, smiling, "And I got here sometime before lunch ended."

"Oh," Soarin' says, still smiling.

"Welcome back, Rainbow Dash," Cheese Sandwich tells Dash, his arms wrapped around Pinkie.

"Awww," Dash says happily, smiling at Cheese, "Thanks, bro!"

      We all laugh as Cheese nods his head once, saying "you're welcome" without really saying it. The other guys welcome her back too, and then we all prepare to leave school for the day. We leave, waving at our favorite party couple. Pinkie and Cheese, the president and vice president of the Event Planning Committee, have to stay behind because they're also on the Homecoming Committee, lol. Those crazy, partying lovebirds.
