"AUGGGHHHH!! MOM!! Do I really have to try on these pathetic excuses for a dress?!" Yelled a mare from behind the privacy screen. Or well, she looked like one. Rarity, who was lying down on a sofa, massaged her temples gently while sighing loudly. "Emmy, darling, you act like dresses are a crime!"
Emerald Ember gave an annoyed growl, as her mother casted a longing glance towards Twilight’s Kingdom through the window. Where was her little Spikey Wikey when she needed him?
"I detest fashion! Why can't I just hang out with Spectrum and Sundowner!?" The Pony-Dragon hybrid whined as Rarity got off the sofa and pulled back the privacy screen. She looked into slitted draconic eyes with solid determination.
"They have no fashion sense and they are STALLIONS, my darling! You aren't old enough to hang out with stallions!" Rarity said, her voice raising to a yell. Emerald bared her fangs at her mother before yelling back herself, saying, “But mother?! Can't you see! I'm not like you! I want to hang out with Spectrum, Sundowner and all the other colts in Ponyville! Why won't you understand that I feel like I have better things to do?!"
Rarity stared at her daughter in disgust. "Spectrum Flare and Sundowner have been a horrible influence to you, dear... I forbid you to hang out with them." Emerald’s mother said with a spin as she slowly trotted back towards her sofa. Emerald's pupil shrank, her hoof-claws scouring the ground with anger. "I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!" Emerald roared as Rarity kept a straight face. "I am telling Rainbow Dash and AppleJack to tell Spectrum and Sundowner to never talk to you aga-" She cut off as there was a knock at the door to the boutique.
"Hello? Mrs. Rarity? Crystal? Are ya there?" Sundowner's voice sounded from the other side of the door rather sheepishly as he had heard all the ruckus. "Speak of the devils" Rarity mumbled. Emerald grinned shouting out a, "Yeah! Come in!" before Sundowner politely walked into the door with Spectrum Flare following suit.
"Good evening, Mrs. Rarity, Emerald." Spectrum said rather politely, seemingly exceeding Rarity’s standards of him. "We're here to take Emerald Ember to the Summer Sun Celebration down in Canterlot? We’re rather late.” He said with a charming smile.
Rarity forced a smile "O-of corse! G-go ahead dear, I'll be right behind you!" Emmy had a smug expression on her face as she trotted towards the door along with Sundowner’s somewhat worried expression and Spectrum Flare’s opposing stifled chuckle. "Thanks Mom, I’ll see you later at the castle!" As Emerald rolled her eyes as she said, “But please don’t spend too much time on picking out a dress, alright, ma?” And with that, she bucked the door close with a loud bang. Her mother groaned out as she knew there were going to be claw marks on the door if she went to check. Dramatic, just like her mother.
Rarity groaned and flopped back onto her sofa, feeling faint once again. Why oh why was her daughter like this? Of course she was a gem to have around the house. A gem with... rough edges... Ugh.
-----------Author's Note---------------
Heyo (haha, get it? I reused the same.. greeting as before?.. Shoot me).
So I’ve redone the chapter! Huzzah! If you want to see how Emmy looks like, I have her link on the side to the concept page. A little messy since it’s still a concept so I did it as a sketch, but I think you can make out the overall design. She feels a little plain, so I may add a little more to her, but for now that’s that. I’m enjoying writing again and I hope to redo the next chapter. The newest chapter (the flashback one), however, is being written as of now by Blue Blitz! Yaay! Hopefully you won’t have to wait too long after the last chapter to be redone is.. well, redone. That’s all I have to say for now, so Buh Bai!~
