Re: Ponyville Residential District - Maison Le Rich
Dawn of Day 2: 48 Hours Remain
It was a normal day for Diamond Tiara. Really, it was a grand old day for Diamond Tiara. Silver Spoon was by her side, and Ponyville was bending over backwards for her. She had already gotten some of her favorite tomatoes for 'being the prettiest and kindest filly in Ponyville' and Silver Spoon had revealed some brand new jewelry for them to wear. They came by the schoolyard and everypony loved them. Applebloom and Sweetie Belle even held the door for them.
The world was perfect.
Then, she took such a hit to the face from hard red ball that it sent her tumbling out of the schoolhouse and onto the yard outside. Her dress ripped as she landed hard on her rump, but at least her tiara stayed on her-
Boom!
A ball knocked it clear off of her head. She scrambled to retrieve it, but tripped over an outstretched leg and landed hard. She could feel it break as it lightly cut her skin. A frantic cry rose in her throat as she pushed herself up and saw it was broken cleanly in half...
She turned to Silver Spoon, trying to gather her wits, but she couldn't find her friend, "S-Silver Spoon?"
All she found was Meadow Lark, who rolled the pieces of her tiara around with his wings and kicked them up onto the roof, which seemed miles and miles away.
The little filly looked up in desperation, before turning towards that horrible colt. He laughed and laughed, and she tried to buck him but he was gone.
"Nopony would want to be friends with a greedy filly like you!" He spoke from behind, and she turned to glare at him but he was gone.
"Especially if they knew the truth!" Silver Spoon hissed in her ear from behind, bringing hot tears to her eyes. She couldn't bear to swing on her friend, but she wanted to know why her best friend would say something like that.
Before she could turn around, Scootaloo shoved her down, "Nopony likes you now, anyway! Who cares if they know what you really are?!?"
As she tried to go after this assailant, but the crowd started to close in...that faceless, hateful crowd of other ponies.
As much as she tried to push out, the ponies only shoved her back in and didn't let her move. The world started to smother her, and it was all she could do to scream.
Diamond Tiara screamed loud enough to wake the dead. She clutched the sheets and looked around, panting heavily. If that was a dream, it seemed all too real...
