The next day, the princesses who passed the first test went into the throne room to meet the queen, only to see a light yellow mare with a dark blue and pink mane with wrapped sweets for a cutie mark talking with her, Queen Love Tap turned to them
Queen Love Tap: Oh, ladies, I'm sorry, I had to meet with this young mare, she had just told me that her roof fell and that she needs help replacing it, so I'm sorry, but there will be no test today, I hope you understand how urgent this is
Most of the princesses nodded and gave sympathy to the pony, including the trio and their friends, the others looked annoyed or bothered
Queen Love Tap: I shall see you tonight at dinner, you may go
The latter went out and once they were
Scootaloo: How lucky is that, no test
They heard giggling and turned to see the terrible two as Dinky had called them
Diamond Tiara smirked: Oh please, don't tell me you were that dense
Apple Bloom scowled: What are you getting at
Silver Spoon: That was the test
the friends: Huh
Diamond Tiara: It was so obvious, she set us up to see who would be sympathetic enough to the pony who had her roof fall in, of course, that was all a lie
Sweetie Belle: You don't know that, it could have been real
Diamond Tiara scoffed: Whatever, we don't expect adopted princesses to have the same level of education to us real princesses
Then she and her cousin did their signature bumps
Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon: Bump bump, sugar lump rump
They left, giggling mean-spiritedly as they went away, as they scowled back at them, Twist spoke
Twist: I really do not like them
They stared at her in surprise, never had they heard the princess use such a negative comment
Sweetie Belle: But do you think they were right, that was the test
Sweetie looked back to the throne room
Babs Seed: You can't trust anything they say
Scootaloo: She's right
Apple Bloom: So what do we do now
Twist: Oh, we could go to the kitchens
Dinky: The kitchens
Twist: Trust me
Twist led them, moments later, they were in the gleaming and busy kitchen, Twist went up to a grey colt
Twist: Girls, this is Truffle
the friends: Hi
Truffle: Hello
Truffle shyly backed away
Twist: He doesn't say much, but he's fun to be around
Truffle blushed: Aw
Twist: So a couple of nights ago, I made a special treat for him that I want to make for all of you, too
Truffle: It's really good, she makes the best peppermint shakes there are
Apple Bloom: Peppermint shakes
Twist: It's my special talent, I discovered it one day when I went down in the kitchens of my own castle, I started stirring two peppermint sticks and made peppermint shakes, everybody tried it and really liked it
