Thread: Cutie Mark Crusaders Manehatten Branch * Me and Miles Power!*

Rave began to feel a breeze, before her hair began to get in her face. "Wow, that sure is some wind." She said, hammering in the other side. The breeze kept blowing as Rave went to the next side. "Where is this coming from?" She asked, looking around

Babs tried blowing her hair out of her eyes, but it wasn't working. "I don't know, but it's pretty strong, ain't it?"

Ladybug struggled to stay in the air, but was blown back and finally had to land. "I'm sorry girls, I don't think I can fly in this wind..." she admitted, sounding ashamed. She wasn't a strong flyer as it was, so this wind made it next to impossible for her to fly.

Rave nodded. "Eh it's okay. You dont have to be in the air to hold nails." Rave said with a smile. She began to Nail in the next side of the board. Once we get these last two boards in, we can start of the floor." She added with an enthusiastic tone.

Ace let the wind current keep going, now that he'd created it, and flew up to the clouds. He had more ideas in story.

Babs nodded, patting her friend on the back. "Yeah, no problem, you're still a big help," she said, giving Ladybug a smile. She liked how well the three of them got along, they were really bonding pretty well. She couldn't wait for them to meet the Ponyville CMC.

Ladybug gave a shy smile. "Thanks..." she said, happy her friends helped her when she needed them. She reached up and held the nails for Rave, being a bit more flexible than the others, which allowed her to reach the nails easier. "...It'll be really cool to have our own tree house, won't it?"

Rave nodded. "Oh yeah! And I'm going to be the official DJ of our Clubhouse!" She said with a smirk, before putting on her best DJ voice she could. "This is DJ Rave, bringing you the best hits from the top DJ in Equestria, Vinyl Scratch of course!" She said, laughing. "I can't make music, let alone write it. I just hate it for some reason. But I'm hoping that whatever my Cutie Mark may be, I will still be able to do some form of music as a side job!" She said with a smile, before hammering in the next set of nails. She then moved on to the last side.

Babs smiled. "Dat sounds awesome," she said, joining her with Ladybug. "Applebloom and her friend's tree house has a telescope, dat was pretty cool," she explained. "Wish they'd shown me dat first, they saved dat for last," she said, then looked guilty, remembering her bullying. She'd actually first seen it after she, Diamond Tiara, and Silver Spoon took it from them.

"Is something wrong?" Ladybug asked, looking at the filly.

"Huh? What?"

Rave looked to her. "Well, you was looking all down and stuff, It looked like you was having trouble over somethin..." She said, hammering. "Is it something bothering you? I mean you can tell us if you want, I won't think anything different of you." She said with a smile.

Babs pawed the ground nervously. "Yah promise?"

Ladybug nodded. "Yeah, you're our friend, why would we be angry?"

Babs sighed. "...It's a long story..." she said, and then explained the incident in Ponyville, looking like she was going to cry by the time she finished it. "How could I do dat tah my own cousin?...I...I know they forgave me, but I'm just sick at myself for it...I'll understand if yah don't want tah be my friend after that..."

Rave set down her things right there, walked over and embraced Babs. "Don't want to be friends after all we have been through today? I wouldn't trade your friendship for anything in Equestria. You were faced with the thing my Aunt likes to call Peer Pressure, or something like that. If I was in your Position, I would have done the same thing." She said to Babs. "Sides, your not the only one who had done things she was ashamed of..." Rave added, knowing the things she had done before, and weren't proud of. "We aren't perfect, that's why we have each other...To watch each others backs..." She added, staying in the embrace

Ladybug fluttered over, turning it into a group hug. "Um...I don't know if I'd have done that...Oh! Not saying I'm better than you, I just mean...I'm so shy, I don't think I'd be able to...But Rave's right, you made a mistake, that's all. I have done bad things before, nopony's perfect. Like my big sister would say, you're not a bad pony, you just made a bad decision," she explained, giving a smile.

Babs was completely surprised, then gave a smile and actually cried, returning the hug. "Thanks gals, you're great...I'm proud tah call yah my friends."

"Of course, Friends 'till the end, thats my motto!" Rave said, smiling. She was happy for once, true happiness with her new-found friends. She was glad she found them, because her life had been stinking for the past week. Now she actually has other ponies to talk to and hang out with.

Plum Seed was smiling, before she heard a thud out front. Wondering what it was she went to the front and found a package. It had said 'To the Manehatten CMC'. She quirked a brow and picked it up, taking it around back. "Guess Twilight paid for the quick delivery service, your things are here." She said, setting it down.

OOC: I decided to have the package come at this point, make it seem like a nice coincidence since they technically had their 'first friendship lesson' of sorts, as long as its ok with you

OOC: Fine by me.

Derpy Hooves watched the scene for a second, before leaving to continue her deliveries.

"Yeah! That's a good motto," Ladybug chimed in, she then looked to Plum Seed. "Oh, that's nice."

Babs opened the box to reveal the capes for the other two, Twilight's book, and a few surprises. "Huh?" she asked, taking a note. "'Dear Manehatten CMC; some of da grown ups decided tah send yah some stuff too, hope everything goes great. Ponyville CMC'. Huh, watcha know?"

Babs pulled out a jar of Zap Applejam. "Wow! Applejack sent us some Zap Apple Jam! I knew they kept some jars around, but I've never got to try it."

Ladybug looked and pulled out a scarf. "This is from my sister and Miss Rarity," she took the attached note. "'Dear Manehatten CMC; Hello, it's getting close to winter -Oh my gosh, Ladybug made some friends! That's amazing- so we decided it'd be a good idea to send you some scarfs for when it gets cold. -I bet she's having fun and they're great!- Hope you enjoy them. Rarity and Fluttershy. PS, Fluttershy says hello and she loves you, Ladybug'," she read, smiling at the words of her apparently overjoyed big sister.

OOC: Fluttershy went into the same mindset she did when Rainbow mentioned wanting a pet pretty much.

Rave looked into the box, pulling out a record and a pair of shades. She noticed a note fall out of the box. "Dear Rave, I heard you got some new friends, and it just so happened I had an extra copy of my newest record laying around...So I sent it for you and your friends to enjoy. Also hope you like the Glasses, a friend of mine suggested me to give them to you. You might know her from Scootaloo as Rainbow Dash. Oh and by the way, my roommate Octavia said hi. You remember her right? Anyways, keep in touch! Signed- DJ PON-3" She read aloud to herself.

Rave then looked up. "New Record, sweet!" She said, setting them aside and putting the glasses on. "That Rainbow Dash has in interesting taste in eyewear..." She mused, before walking over and grabbing a cape. She looked it over. "Ooh, I like this." Rave said, setting it on her back

Ladybug put her cape on as well, looking it over. "Wow...it's really nice," she said, smiling. "Miss Rarity does good work. I've met her before, she's really nice."

Babs nodded. She looked in the box again, taking out the book. "Huh?" she pulled out a completely intact, uncrushed cake. "'In honor of your new friendships! I'd be there tah throw a party for yah in person, but I'll just have tah wait for yah to visit Ponyville, Pinkie Pie'," she read, looking at the cake and wondering how it'd fit in the box, let alone survived the trip. "How did she..."

"Miss Pinkie Pie does things like that...no one knows how...Twilight tried to figure it out, but failed..." Ladybug explained.

"Hmm Thats definitely not weird at all...." Rave said looking at the cake. "However its intact and it looks delicious!" She exclaimed, licking her lips

Plum Seed laughed. "Well, I would atleast finish the foundation on that before you have any kind of cake..." She said to them, happy too see them enjoying this.

"Oh Right!" Rave said, going back over and getting to hammering.
