Keep on Skating (An appledash fanfic)

Chapter 10

"This is your house??".

The girls looked up in shock. Rainbow nodded. Her house was a very fancy house. The girls looked up at it, with wide eyes.

"Yup. My personal small version of hell. Cmon".

She walked up to the front door. The girls looked at eachother before they followed her inside. Walking in the girls looked around in awe.

"My goodness", Rarity said. "This place is amazing".

It looked like it was worth a million dollars. With stone pillars, marble floors and grand staircase. It was huge. They noticed clothes were all over the floor.

"Yeah. My dad's kinda rich and important", Rainbow said smirking.

She began to pick up the dirty clothes. The girls helped her. They gathered up all the clothes that was on the floor.

"Follow me".

The girls followed Rainbow through the huge house out to the backyard. The while yard was one of those yard with a pool and rocks filling up the yard. No grass. Rainbow Dash walked over a washbasin. Putting the clothes down she picked up the washbasin and a bottle of pink soap that was beside it.

She carried over to a faucet. Turning it on water rushed out, filling the basic quickly. Filling it she stood up and said, "put the clothes over here".

The dropped the clothes into a pile. She knelt down, wincing as the rocks jabbed into her knees. Rainbow picked up the bottle of soap and looked at her friends.

"This is how I wash the clothes. Now you're probably wondering 'Why doesn't she just use the washing machine like a normal person??'. My dad told me to do it this way. If I don't do it, he'll know. Trust me. He'll find out and then I'll get in trouble. Plus, he likes it when there's more work for me to do".

Rainbow rolled her eyes. She poured the soap into the water and put the bottle down. Using her hands she mixed it up. When she was finished she took a shirt and dunked it in. It took about 10 minutes to get it clean.  Rainbow squeezed the water out and laid the shirt on shoulder to hold it.

"You're gunna all wet".

Rainbow shrugged. "Once my dad made me sleep outside as a punishment and it was raining that night", she said.

Applejack's eyes widened. "So that's why ya came ta school that day wet an sick".

Rainbow nodded and grabbed one of her shirts. It was all ripped up. She sighed and dunked it. It was quiet for a while. The only sound was the sound of articles of clothing being dunked into the water and scrubbed clean.
---------------------

Rainbow's POV:

I sigh quietly as scrubbed the skirt in my hands. My arms were sore. My knees were killing me. Stupid rocks.

Water must've gotten into the open cuts on arms because I felt a stinging feeling. I hissed.

"Ow".

"Rainbow, maybe you should take a break", Applejack said.

I stop and look up at her. She looked worried.

"At least Twi take a look at chur..... cuts".

"I have to finish this", I said. "If she tendsnto them now they'll end up opening again".

I got up a little so I was only on one knee. I squeezed the water out and laid the skirt on my thigh. The water sunk through my pants.

"Well there must be something we can do", Rarity said. I glanced up at her. She was crossing her arms.
