(Sapphire)
It was a bright sunny day, and I was with CT. We were running errands for the gala tonight. I was so excited. I guess too excited...because I had just pushed CT into a puddle of mud playing: "push and shove." We were heading over to Rarity's to pick up our outfits. And CT didn't look to happy about walking into her store all muddy. We knock on her door. "Why hello-" Rarity stopped and looked at CT. "What happened to you darling?! You certainly can't go to the gala like that!" Rarity said putting her hoof over her mouth. "Well, see, it was, a...." CT stumbled over his words as he stared at her. "Let's get you cleaned up! I won't have your handsome mane stay like that!" Rarity pulled us both inside and I giggled a little bit. "I'll be right back with your friend darling, your outfits are over there." Rarity says pointing to the racks. I grab our outfits and start to over hear they're conversation. "So do you have anyone to go with?" Rarity asks him. "Well...no...not really." CT answers.
"What?! A handsome stallion like you with no date? Why darling, you have to get out there!"
"Well, yeah, but-"
"But nothing! I will go with you."
"R-Rarity you don't h-have to-"
"Oh but I do! And I have something that will go great with your outfit!" Rarity giggles and goes to fetch her outfit. "Choco strikes again!" CT says with excitement. I go and throw my outfit over my shoulder and walk out. I was hoping he would ask me...but then again we're just friends...he deserves a beautiful mare like Rarity...

"Hey Saphy! Look at my out...fit?" I say looking around. She wasn't here. I walk out of the store and look around. I look at the clock over town hall and realize it was almost time for the gala. "I guess I'll meet you there..." I say to myself. Mares...can't live with them, can't live without them. Before I knew it I was at the gala with Rarity. Everyone was so taken with her...including me. She was beautiful. Her mane was all up fancy in a bun. "Presenting the royal princess Celestia, accompanied with her sister and princess of the night, Luna." An announcement comes on. Celestia and Luna walk outside to the gardens where me and Rarity were. Luna walks up to me and smiles. "Princess..." I say bowing. I look at her and she just stares at me. "I'll be right back, darling. All these ponies are wanting me to accompany them to the auction. Do you mind?" Rarity asks. "No, no. You go have fun." I say with a smile. I look back to Luna. "She's looking for you." Luna says mysteriously. I could only think she meant Sapphire, they were best friends after all. "Where is she?" I ask. "She is in the dining hall." Luna smiles, and motions me to follow her. I walk into the beautiful room with a glass chandelier. Luna points to her and my jaw drops. She was wearing a beautiful blue and purple dress, and her hair was up, almost exactly like Rarity's... But the thing that caught me was her eyes. She was wearing make up... That made her eye lashes even longer than Rarity's. I was walking over to her...when Prince Blue Blood got to her first. She was blushing, and talking...I take a step back. "I'm back!" Rarity says trotting up to me. I clear my throat. "Want some food? I hear they have wonderful d'oeuvres!" Rarity says taking my hoof. I blush and say yes. Rarity takes me to her table with all her friends and acquaintances. The music was beautiful and ponies were dancing. There was a door to my left, I saw being held open by Prince Blue Blood. "I'll give you a tour." He said to Saph... She walked thru and said thank you. I sat there for a little while feeling depressed...I don't even think she noticed me...I faintly hear a door slam down the hallway Sapphire just walked into. And then I noticed something. He held the door open for her... He's never a gentlemen, and the only resin I know is because of stories Rarity told me. "Excuse me." I say quietly getting up. I walk down the hall trying to keep my cool; when I hear a faint scream. "Saph?!" I yell down the hall. I go to the right, then to the left. I didn't know where she was. "Dammit!" I yell as I try to find her. I hear another scream and find the door. It was locked. "Sapphire!" I yell pounding on the door. "Chocolate-" I hear a bang and then silence. I bang on the door, harder, harder. I break it down. I run inside to see Sapphire nocked out on the floor...with him. Prince Blue Blood turns to me. "You, you bastard!!!" I say charging at him. "How dare you touch her!!!" I hit his eye with my hoof then pin him. "Wait wait! I'm sorry! I was just having a little fun..." He says before I punch him again. "Come on! We're all stallions here. Look, she's right there...why don't you give it a try." I stop forcing him to stay on the ground and look at her. She had a black eye, and her dress was torn off and her beautiful hair was all messed up... But I am no bastard. I punch him again. "If I ever see you touch her again, I will personally come to your fancy castle, and rip your manly parts to shreds!" I yell in his face. I let him go and he runs down the hall. I run to Sapphire. "Your gonna be ok...I'm gonna get you to Luna." I say putting her hair behind her ear. "There he is! I found her all bruised with him! That's when he gave me the black eye!" Prince Blue Blood walks in with Celestia. Crap...this looks horrible. "Guards!" Celestia yells. "No stop! He's lying!" I yell as I'm dragged away. "Sapphire! No!" I kick and struggle. I was thrown into prison for molest...Luna came to my cell thankfully. "I know you didn't do it. And I'm in the process of giving you a trial." Luna say rolling me an apple. "This was a disaster..." I say rolling the apple back to her. "Eat." I hear a familiar voice. Sapphire walks up the cell. "I don't want you dying on me." She smiles with her black eye. She had one of her back hoofs in a cast. I run to the edge of my cell and stick my muzzle out and open my mouth. She stuck the apple inside my mouth. "It'll take about 7 months to start and finish the trial. But I will try my best." Luna bows and walks out. "Tell me your ok, your ok, you have to be." I say reaching out my hoof to hold hers. "I'll be fine..." She smiles.
