Let's Have a Treat!

[Jon]

Arianna walked into the door of the cafe, holding the door open for Victory. "Come on, Baby Faithful!" She said with a smile.

((And, yes, I did that on purpose..:B..But Arianna doesn't realize that she did it.))

[Victory]

Victory froze in midstep, those two innocent words hitting her like a lightning bolt.
Baby Faithful.
Blue eyes widened, staring at Arianna as if she'd been slapped. The reminder of her family, who had cast her away like a broken toy all those years ago... it was simply too much for her to take. Her already-breaking heart shattered to pieces. How could Arianna be so cruel?! Victory blinked back unshed tears, and reacted in the only way she knew how.
The harder life got, the colder Victory got.
Her eyes narrowed, and she lowered her horn. Through gritted teeth, Victory hissed, "You sick, cruel little witch! Don't you DARE try to mess with me like that, or I swear to the rainbow I'll rip you apart." With that, the unicorn turned away, glaring very hard straight ahead as she coldly walked off.
Victory always held her head high.
And Baby Faithful never cried.

((OOC: Ooh, hissy fit. Continued elsewhere, I s'pose.))

Arianna gasped. "What.." She burst into tears, and pulled her hand up to her gapping mouth. She couldn't believe how Victory had acted, and why? Why did she act that way. Arianna was so confused, and hurt, and the most part alone.

Arianna stopped the whining outside of Cotton Candy Cafe. She wasn't going to be like her mother, she wasn't going to let anybody run her over. She bolted off towards Victory. "Victory, get back here!" She ran upto Victory, and stood sternly behind her. "Listen, I'm not going to have somebody who never shows their emotions as a friend!" She stomped her foot. "You tell me what's wrong, and you tell me now!"

[Victory]

((OOC: Okay, maybe not. XD))

Listen, I'm not going to have somebody who never shows their emotions as a friend! Victory's stare grew even icier. "Then maybe you don't really want me as a friend. Rainbow, human, what do you think is wrong? How could you call me that and act all offended and wronged?!" If her magic had not been so drained by the battle against the dark rainbow, Victory would have summoned a shuriken right there and then. "My name is NOT Baby Faithful, and it never was. Never call me that again!"

[Becka *Pone*]

(You can consider this during or just after the fight, but Im writing them all now)

Between Victory and Arianna there was a sudden bright light - too bright to keep their eyes on and they had to close them both. And from the light came a voice, that could only be heard by the unicorn.

A firey spirit Victory, and an inner strength, that is why you were a Champion. Dont let rash words ruin friendships that have just begun, although you have felt empty.

And from the light came the slightest whisp of yellow, into her body to fill her soul and calm her spirit.

(The glow will not return, not the intelligence it once held, but a "second symbol" may be manifested if you choose)

[Jon]

Arianna stopped for a second. She looked around, and then looked at Victory. "Woah..Rewind!" She said with curcular hand movements. "Who's baby Faithful, and when did I call you that?" She looked confused, and sniffled at her tears. "Victory, the power lies inside you." She smiled.

[Victory]

Victory felt like she should be angry. Why was Arianna playing dumb about something so hurtful? But the strange light and it's soothing words had filled that void within, and the unicorn felt herself simply letting it be. On the outside, there was no obvious change, but on the inside, Victory felt like a whole new pony. "You called me that a few minutes ago, Arianna," She replied, though not angrily, "Baby Faithful... Baby Faithful is me." The words were forever bittersweet to her, so she couldn't help but let a tinge of sadness enter her smile. At Arianna's last, cryptic statement, Victory paused a moment, thinking. "Yes... yes, I guess it is."

[Jon]

Arianna stopped. She was going crazy, literally crazy. She had been saying things she had no idea she was saying, she was completely clue-less. She was going crazy. She knew it. She thought. "Seven..What does Seven mean?" She looked down at Victory, half listening to what she had to say, and half listening to her own thoughts. "Faithful.." She looked down at Victory. "Tell me. Tell me everything, and don't hold anything back."

"I'm going crazy."

[Jon]

Arianna looked down at Victory. Her back was turned to Arianna. Arianna tapped her on her back. "Victory.." Arianna called. No response. "She's still mad.." Arianna sighed, and turned around. "I'll be seeing you, Victory."

[Victory]

Victory didn't respond to Arianna. She simply didn't want to talk about it. Victory was NOT the sort to spill her guts to a girl she'd known two days now. Besides... it still hurt. After a while, she glanced over her shoulder, sighed, then slowly walked out. She didn't need this right now. Any of it.

((OOC: Continued elsewhere, blah blah blah.))
