Load Full StoryNext Chapter

As you load the last of your bags on the train in the baggage storage room, and make your way to your seat as you sit down slowly and stare out the window when the train starts moving, you start thinking about what made you finally leave Manehattan, you don't know if it was the new assistant manager job or if you just wanted to get far away from here and something new in your life,

But you didn't know if you could find more work in someplace else so you just stayed in Manehattan and hoped it worked out...thankfully it did, but you will miss some of your co-workers and you did have some nice memories of the place and especially of her.

You wonder where she was living or what she even looks like now, after all you were just a colt back then and she was one of the cutest fillies you have ever seen, but as you slowly start to fall asleep because moving really tired you out, you are still thinking of her as that cute orange filly from back then.

(A two hours later,) You wake up to a loud noise from the train stopping at the station and a hear loud hiss from the outside, and hear the station name and it's your stop so you get up and start moving to the other car to get your bags. upon doing so you bump into and accidentally knocked down a little filly with a dark orange coat and red mane, in fact you think you have seen her in Manehattan before.

You then say to the little filly “I am terribly sorry I wasn't paying attention.”

And you soon hear her reply saying "No it's fine I wasn't either,” you then think to your self Well at least she is nice and understanding.

She gets up and brushes herself off and nervously said goodbye while taking her bag with her and walked away, as you turn back around to the baggage room to retrieve your luggage.

You hear outside, "Babs! Babs it's me, your cousin Applebloom." You look outside and see the filly you bumped in to as well as three others you don't recognize, you go back to retrieving your luggage and think to yourself Well at least it's friendly here.

You take your luggage off the train and start heading straight to your new house, as you're walking to your new house you start thinking, I better find some new furniture, but I wonder where I could find a place that sells them considering I just moved here, maybe I should ask somebody later.

Finally, after fifteen minutes of walking you have reached your new house, it's a little bit out of shape but you can fix it up, you set your things down so you can get the key out and unlock the door, you soon find it and put it in to the keyhole and turn it to the right unlocking the lock for the door, after returning the key back to your pocket and picking up the stuff you set down.

You push the door open and set the stuff you have in your hands on the floor out of the way so you can bring in the other things you have outside as well, after bringing in the last suitcase you start unpacking, which takes up half the day but you arrived in Ponyville as of now, with that done you decide to look around and see what they do in Ponyville considering you don't start work in two days.

As you were going to your new house you happen to pass a library and with nothing better to do you decide to go in and rent a book and see if the librarian knows where you can get some furniture for your new home, you enter the door to the library and look around and much too your surprise it's inside a tree but you are also shocked at how many books there are, you look around too see if they have a desk were you can ask somebody for some help.

You finally found the desk and behind it is a pale light grayish mulberry mare with moderate sapphire blue hair with moderate violet and brilliant rose streaks she seems to be reading a book as you walk up to her and ask,

“Excuse me, do you have the type of book I am looking for?” She looks up from her book to you with moderate violet eyes that you could get lost in if your not too careful and says

“What is the book are you looking for?”

“Ah, I am looking for the book The Adventures Of Daring Do And The Last Temple Of The Sliver Diamond Dogs.”

“Now I think we have that, you see I have a friend who likes to read The Adventures Of Daring Do so we should have it, so please follow me.”

“Alright cool" you then introduced yourself and followed the mulberry-coated mare "By the way I just moved here so I don't know where the furniture shop is around here, Do you?”

“I am Twilight Sparkle and oh if your looking for furniture my friend Rarity can help you, I'll ask her and see if she has time to show you to the shop, I can't right now because I am running the library so I'll send her a message when I am done helping you find your book, and speaking of your book it should be in this row, also I'll have Spike take you to her boutique once I find him.”

you then see a baby dragon running up to Twilight and saying.

“Did I hear I get to go to Rarity's boutique?”

Twilight chuckles “So you were eavesdropping while hiding on us while you were in the kitchen”

“No...Maybe”

“Yes you get to go to Rarity's boutique, but I want you come back soon you can stay only for a little bit got it.”

“Got it Twilight, so when are we going.”

“When I get my book and check out then we'll head straight there." As soon as Spike hears that he grabs the book and runs straight to the check out desk.”

“Boy he sure is in a hurry." you then turn and look to Twilight and say “So where's the fire?”

Twilight chuckles again and says “Oh Spike just has a crush on Rarity is all.”

“Really so that's why he was so excited to visit her.”

“Yeah he's had a crush on her since day one" Twilight says as you and her are half way from the check out desk.”

Twilight gets behind the desk and checks out the book that Spike has in his hands and then suddenly a question pops in you head.

“So who is this friend that likes The Adventures Of Daring Do?” As Twilight was about to speak she get cut off by Spike.

“Oh that would be Rainbow Dash.”

“And who is Rainbow Dash.”

“She is the one that helps control our weather here in Ponyville.”

“Well that's sounds like a awesome job.”

“So, anymore you want to know before we leave?" Spike says.

“Um so what's Rarity and Rainbow Dash like?”

“Well Rarity likes classy things like proper etiquette and fashion, while on the other hand Rainbow Dash is more tomboyish who likes things like stunts and racing.”

“Okay so then I guess I should handle my self like a gentlemen when we get to Rarity's place.” You say as you start walking to the door.

“Your not trying to make a move on her are you?” Spike asks as he trails behind you shutting the door to the library as both of you leave.


Author's Note

Alright this is my first story and it couldn't have been done without The Watcher 509 proofreading as he really helped a lot with the typos and advise.
