Lucky Melody
At school…
“Alright class, I’m handing back your tests,” said Hackney. I would like to congratulate Melody on her A+ for the test.
“An A+!?” said Melody in disbelief. This is so awesome!
“Congrats, Melody,” said Starlight.
“That’s really truly great, Melody,” said Sweetheart.
“I got a B!” said Patch.
“Good work, ponies,” said Hackney. Now then, let’s start our next lesson. When you multiply two negative numbers, the result is positive. If, however you multiply one positive number and one negative number the result is negative. For example, let’s say you have -2 times -5. What is the result?
“Ten,” said Bright Eyes.
“Very good, Bright Eyes,” said Hackney. Now what about -4 times 3?
“Negative 12,” said Patch.
“Excellent, Patch,” said Hackney. The cookoo clock sounds. Alright, that’s enough for today. Everyone bolts out the door.
“Let’s go celebrate our great test grades at the ice cream shop!” said Bon-Bon
“Yeah, good idea, Bon-Bon,” said Melody. They race off. At the ice cream shop…I still cannot believe I got an A+ on that test.
“The sundaes are on the house,” said Starlight. Melody’s sundae dish off the counter and falls onto the floor without breaking.
“Wow, that was lucky, Melody,” said Sweetheart.
“Yeah, you should be more careful, Melody,” said Bright Eyes.
“I don’t need to be careful when I’m lucky,” said Melody. She walks off.
“What’s up with her?” asked Bright Eyes.
“We must go talk to her,” said Patch.
“Maybe she’ll be better tomorrow,” said Sweetheart.
“I don’t know about the rest of you but I’m not waiting until tomorrow,” said Starlight.
“What can we do?” asked Clover.
“We can try and cause a little bad luck on her,” said Patch.
“Wouldn’t that be just a teensy bit harsh?” asked Sweetheart.
“This is nothing compared to how she has just treated us,” said Bright Eyes.
“What should we do?” asked Bon-Bon.
“We’ll need to lay out some traps,” said Bright Eyes.
“What kind of traps?” asked Sweetheart.
“You know, like a rope with a loop to catch someone,” said Bright Eyes. Come on, let’s go find a rope and tie it to a tree! She walks out and the others follow. They set up the rope and hide. Shh, here she comes. Melody is walking home, still amazed at her high grade and literally walks into the trap.
“Where did this come from?” asked Melody.
“Gotcha!” yelled everyone.
“What was this for?” asked Melody.
“We wanted to pay you back for how you treated us at the ice cream shop,” said Bright Eyes.
“I…I…I’m sorry,” said Melody. I was so excited about how lucky I had become I had totally ignored all of you.
“Ponies, what do you think?” asked Patch. The ponies huddle and whisper to one another and after a couple of minutes, lift their heads and turn back around.
“We can be friends with you again but make sure you avoid letting luck get the best of you,” said Bright Eyes.
“It’s a deal,” said Melody. So, where do we all want to do now?
“Home, probably,” said Clover. It’s getting late and our parents will worry if they find out we’re not there.
“Sounds good to me,” said Bright Eyes.
“Me too,” said Bon-Bon.
“Me three,” said Patch.
“It’s good be friends with you all again,” said Melody.
“We’re glad to be friends with you too, Melody,” said Bright Eyes.
