Saccharine ran out of the barn, top speed. How could she let something like this happen? Both the family and herself were in danger! Just because of that stupid Frostbite Apple, who'd tricked her! She'd only wanted a friend, or at least someone that didn't call her a freak, or a siren.
Now the Princess and her five dames knew about her spell. She could be arrested! This was terrible! She froze in the middle of the street with her hooves cupped around her face panickedly. "WHAT AM I GOING TO DO??" she yelled, much louder than she intended.
This was met by many awkward looks, one of which being who she knew to be one of the current so-called Guardians of Harmony. She ran over, nearly tackling the stallion. "PRINCE ARTEMIS!" She quickly bowed and got up, just as out of breath. Artemis was so stunned he barely did more than stutter out confused noises.
"NO TIME TO EXPLAIN! WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT CHANGE OF FATE?"
He pushed the panicking mare off himself- "who are you?"
"Uhh, Saccharine. NOW WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT-"
"Change of Fate?" he interrupted "Not much, is this some sort of social experiment or prank? Because I swear, if Flurry's trying to trick me again-"
"Nope, whoever you're talking about is not tricking you. DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT?"
"Uh-uh. I suggest you chill, maybe switch to decaf, and check the library for information if you really want to know that much."
"THANK YOU!" And she once again took off, leaving a cartoonish trail of dust.
"Sheesh" Artemis murmured to himself "Where's she from?"
Back at the farm, Pixie Core sat face-down on a salestable. Her chores today were pretty much useless, considering Pear jam had just gone out of season. There wasn't much of a demand. But her thoughts wandered elsewhere, however, far beyond the farm.
She was thinking about Frostbite. That stupid, annoying, stuck-up mare just couldn't keep her racism away from her own cousin! And worse, she'd heard her moms talking about the pony. She lived on the farm, not even being a visitor for the reunion!
Out of nowhere, her internal rant was interrupted by a panicked noise and the bursting open of a door.
Aunt Pumpkin Cake quickly pushed in a wheelbarrow, signifying to Pixie that it was time. Oh Faust, it was time.
She rushed to her parents and Aunt's side, helping to awkwardly load her mom, who, by the way, was groaning in pain and slightly drooling out the side of her mouth- onto the metal basin. Pixie most likely would have laughed if the moment wasn't so serious.
