Sapphire Shores' dress

Rarity's shop and home.

A perfect shot of Rarity's cutie mark.

Rarity is hard at work.

The last gem, and it'll be complete.

Careful, Rarity.

Pinpoint focus.

"Perfect!"

Rarity's got a visitor.

Moving the curtains into place.

A simple walk.

Rarity's jaw drops.

"Sapphire Shores! The pony of pop!"

Rarity grasping reality.

"You know my name!?"

Rarity meets Sapphire Shores.

Yes, yes...?

Rarity's head already in the clouds.

"How may I help you, Ms. Shores?"

Please, call me Sapphire.

A mixture of dreamy, cute, and cool.

Giggle, giggle...her cuteness just ripped the fabric of total occurring realism.

Wide eyed beauty mixed with cuteness and all things sweet.

*Snug*

All about me.

Awoo! Sensational!

Okay, I don't have anything to say right now.,

"I've got to look... Seeeeeen-sa-tion-al! OW!"

Okay...weird.

Ah, I have just the thing for you...

Bored.

the pièce de résistance de la haute couture

Ooh! oh-oh-oooh! A sparkly!

Rarity's eyes are twinkling! All is well with the world.

I've always wanted a sparkly of my very own.

It's a miracle she's not blind.

"Really!!"

Hah!

"Beg pardon...?"

Five more?!

Quickly checking her inventory.

Rarity feels faint

"I guess I do have that effect on ponies!"

Gem Hunting

This is Rarity's special talent, don'cha know?

Oh Rarity!

While Rarity is busy looking for gems, Spike is busy talking about Sapphire Shores.

Rarity is not amused...not at all.

Come on, Spike! Let's go!

Oh well.

"I mean, you're ten times more gorgeous!" Spike, you got that right.

"And talented."

"Spike, a lady is never jealous."

"Ladies do not flip out, Spike"

Right?

"However."

"I was quite."

"In awe."

Rarity's horn glows.

Rarity with a funny looking smile.

Oooh! My horn!

Rarity with a cute expression.

Hey you found some.

I found some gems, Spike!

"Did you find some!?" Asked an overjoyed dragon.

"Yes Spike, right there."

Spike.

I like digging.

Ooh, shiny!

Dannnnnnnnnng...speechless.

Spike likes what he sees.

Mouth-watering gems, a dragon's favorite.

Happy face!

No Spike. Don't eat them yet!

Huh? What, I wasn't doing anything bad!

Rarity striking a beautiful pose.

Never fear Spike, Rarity isn't lying.

"Come along Spike."

"At your service, milady!"

Found some.

Rarity a safe distance from the flying dirt.

A bit surprised.

Take those out! You don't know where they've been.

Hehe...

A sneaky Spike.

Spike sniffing those yummy gems.

The grace Rarity has.

Yummy.

Spike is a drill

Dust, from digging into the dirt.

All those beautiful gems.

He's admiring the jewels. Or Rarity.

My tongue sure is, wet.

You're such a good little, Spikey-Wikey!

Rarity patting her Spikey-Wikey.

"You get the finest reward."

That beautiful gem.

Spike was about to gulp his well-earned gem...

...but...

Spike yearns for a different kind of gem

...far more precious than the one he holds.

Ooh, another gem.

The start of trouble.

Ooh, I found more, come along Spike.

Coming from the one he loves, it's prefect.

Ponynapped!

It's...a bush.

And who are these?

"Spike, you know."

Oh, you wittle dragon.

"To keep a lady waiting."

I spy the cute effort of looking for gems.

"I think we'll really strike..."

"Gold this time."

"So to speak."

No, don't turn your back!

"Well Spike, I think that's all we can do today."

"And these will certainly get me well on my way with Sapphire's outfits."

Rarity used Flash Cannon! Chaos ENSURES!

"Another jewel."

"Oh, strange. It's in the trees."

Got to love those gem trees.

You're not a gem!

Rarity and Spike

Rarity looks funny and Spike looks worried.

"Good day, gentle uh, fellow"

"I am...."

"Rarity and this is my friend Spike."

Hey... what's up...?

"And you are...?"

"A diamond dog!"

Little White-and-Purple Riding Hood meets the Big Bad Diamond Dog.

"I mean I-I know diamonds are a girl's best friend."

Rarity looking for the right words.

Getting cornered by this mutated dog.

"Uh, we?"

Attack begins now!

Rarity D:

[Go, go, Gadget Jackhammer!]

Don't land on me. Please.

Spike protecting Rarity.

Oh that's not good.

Spike is dazed.

Flat as pancakes. Or not.

"Spike! Come on! Hurry!"

Oh...great.

Taken.

Look, I'm balancing the dragon!

AAAAAAAH!

*Gasp!*

Rarity, calling out for Spike.

Over here!

Don't touch me there!

Rarity losing the fight.

NOOOOOOO!

Saving Rarity

Charge, Charge!

Spike wanna vomit, Twily!

"All you said earlier was....!"

The ponies idly standing around.

Spike running

Spike panicking.

Blah Blah Blah Blah BluBluBlu Blah! Rarity got kidnapped by a bunch of dogs! : O

Oh my Celestia, Luna, and Cadance!

Okay, one of these holes has Rarity. Charge!

What's in this hole? Hmph...

Everypony, look in these holes!

Mwah hah hah hah...

Dirt? or Derp?

Just taking a little peek.

Dirt.

Where could Rarity be at? Hmm...

Ahh! Close call, Fluttershy.

Hopping to a hole.

Down I go.

Dashie dash.

Some pretty dash mane flow.

Gotta go faster Rainbow Dash

Even Applejack is getting worried about Rarity's safety.

What are we gonna do? It's almost the end of the world! : O

Rarity behind bars!

"Oh woe is me!"

"Make it stop!"

This is a pretty incredible hairstyle for Rarity.

"Disgusting dirt."

Rarity: Dirt! My one weakness!

Ooh, poor Rarity.

So, now what?

"But they blocked up all the holes."

Everypony, dig the holes! We need shelter!

Leave it to Pinkie Pie to be digging happily.

Let's play tug-a-war!

Ouch, doesn't that hurt?!

Ahh! They got you this time, Fluttershy... Ouch.

Ah!

Rainbow Dash and Twilight just happen to sense the dogs near them at the same time.

Which one should we attack?

Rainbow Dash and Twilight collide head on.

Applejack.

Not able to catch up with a little doggie.

Huh?

Gasp!

The gang all tired out

Rarity with the why am I here face.

Rarity getting spooked by a one of the mutated dogs.

Scared.

Preciousssssss Pony!!!

Pockets?

"Huh?", exactly what does Spike have in mind?

Spike is deeply determined to save Rarity.

"SHH!"

Spike is about to daydream.

Lord Robin Dudley, saying Elizabeth from the tower of London.

Dream on, Spike

Hmm, I wonder why the Diamond Dogs had a dress hidden in their cave

"Ooh, Spike."

Rarity in Spike's day dream

Kissy, kissy, kissy

Uh... What is Spike doing?

"Whoa, easy there, lover boy."

Eh heh heh... : ]

Find the hidden music notes.

Hey Spike caught one.

Woah there, digger boy.

Bite down on Applejack's tail.

Rainbow Dash biting hole of Twilight's tail.

Rainbow doing her best.

Pinkie hopping after Fluttershy.

Pinkie about to have the ride of her life.

Going underground

A Runaway for Twilight, AJ, and Spike.

Ponies on the Run/Run Ponies Run

Pinkie riding Fluttershy? What fun??

Make a bridge!

Spike tastes bad.

We're diving down headfirst, everypony!

Uh oh

Ground dive!

Ugh...I will never take that Underground Roller Coster again.

Spike's happy despite everypony's expense.

"Ummm." Says the adorable Twilight.

"Which way do we go?"

Rainbow doesn't have the slightest clue where to go.

"That could take forever!"

"There's got to be a way to narrow it down."

"But Spike."

"Rarity is the only one who knows how to find gems!"

"No Twilight, you can."

"Oh my gosh!", exclaimed the lavender Unicorn.

"You're right!"

"Rarity showed me how she did it a while back."

"If I can just remember..."

Concentrate Twilight.

Poof!

Checking out her spell.

Of course I did Spike.

We'll follow that trail!

The power of whining

Lady Elizabeth! 'Tis a Spanish attack!

Oh, no...

Let me go pretty please?

"Oh!"

"Is that all."

Rarity scanning for gems.

Well, I'm just going to move a stick...

You're kidding...are you serious?

Rarity doesn't seem to like this.

"Now dig!"

Hmph. Fine.

Rarity stresses FIND.

"Dig?"

"Ooooh." Cuteness.

Might as well.

What expression is this?

Rarity being a bit too gentle in the digging.

What am I doing?

"Forgive me."

"But prior to you so."

"Rudely dragging me into your dirt pit."

"I had a pony pedi."

"I am not about to chip a hoof."

"Because you dislike my style of digging."

Works everytime.

"I beg your pardon!"

"What pray tell, are you doing!?"

You pull wagon!

"Well somebody certainly needs proper nail care!"

"When was the last time you two had a manicure?"

"You're scratching up my coat with those jagged things!"

Rarity hears one of the diamond dogs tell her to be quiet.

Something's not right.

Knowing Rarity, she won't be lying about anything horrid.

"Good heavens!"

"What is..."

"...that smell!?"

"Smell?"

"Ah, mystery solved. It's your breath."

You ever heard of mouthwash? Use it!

Yeah, yeah I'm on it.

Rarity listing the flaws of the place.

Rarity finding more gems.

Rarity being clear...about everything.

"You look and smell like if you haven't bathed in weeks."

"Could I please have some water?"

Rarity driving the Diamond Dogs crazy

"I am a lady and I wish to be addressed as such."

"I am not whining. I am complaining."

"Do you want to hear whining?"

She starts...her whining!

"Oooh, this harness is too tight!"

"Can't you loosen it?" Asks the beautiful white mare.

What a funky expression on Rarity's face.

"Why didn't you clean it first?"

"It'll leave a stain!"

"Why do I have..."

"...to pull it?"

Rarity checking the results of her whining.

"But I thought..."

"...you wanted whininnnnng!"

You said what now!

Lady Elizabeth! Why are thee so serious?

"Anything...?" Hmmm.

Rarity enjoying a drink of water.

Not the kind of water she expected but Rarity isn't one to complain.

"Oh, this water is hardly sparkling."

"But I suppose it will have to do."

Diamond Dogs working their tails off.

Ultra cute close up.

Close up gasp.

"What are you doing!?"

"HEY!"

"You spilled my drink."

A really tight fit.

"Not sooo tight!"

"Hiya mule!"

What a shock to her sweet face!

"Did you...just call me...a mule?"

Uh oh.

"Mules are ugly... are you saying I, too, am ugly...?"

Rarity with tears in her eyes.

Awww...you made poor Rarity cry...(and you dogs are so DEAD!!)

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Diamond dogs trying in vain to comfort Rarity.

"And it's true!"

"Just look at me!"

More crying...

"I don't believe you!"

This looks more like anger than sadness...

"You never liked me!"

Marshmallows cry.

Help arrives

"I can feel it."

Rainbow with the almost there face.

"It's coming from down here."

"She must be in there!"

"Let's go!" The cerulean pegasus declares in eagerness.

"If you can take this bull by the horns, you better be ready for a ride!"

That dog's gonna be sore in the morning.

What's happening?

Rodeo ponies!

Applejack

Hi-ho Twilight!

Really Spike? Really?

"Please, Twilight, just give me this."

"Fine!"

Hut Hut Hut! Go horsey! I need to save my fair lady, Rarity!

To the rescue!

"I'm here to save you!"

Well that's improb, whaaaaaaaaaaat!

Okay...weird.

"Excuse me!" Demands the lavender Unicorn.

Spike and everypony are happy.

Spike hugging his fair lady Rarity of the House of Pony Tudor.

"You are just in time to assist me."

"Assist you."

"With what?"

"With those!"

Well it looks like Rainbow Dash is speechless.

Spike we all know you like this so get off the air.

"With all these jewels!?"

"Take them! And HER with them!"

Applejack could agree more with whoever said something.

Rarity pulling a cart full of gems.

"I can't believe you."

"Tricked all those dogs."

"Just because I'm a lady."

"Doesn't mean I cannot handle myself in a sticky situation."

"I had them wrapped around my hoof."

"The entire time."

"I can't wait to write to Princess Celestia."

Cute face.

"Me? What did I teach you?"

"Just because somepony is ladylike."

"Doesn't make her weak."

"Who outsmarts and outshines them all."

Spike chowing down on a ruby.

"Not if you eat them all, Spike."

*Yoink*

All's well that ends well!
