Visiting Equestria

Ensis let out a small sigh. She had finally made it out of that ridiculous forest, and had arrived to the town she had been planning to visit- Ponyville.

She looked around the the town, examining the various buildings and inhabitants. Ponies were walking around, going about their usual, daily routines. After noticing a few of them glancing at her, she became aware of how she may look after going through the forest. She bent down her head and attempted to smooth down her dark brown, curly mane. She lifted her head once more, and began to walk through the town.

She was getting a bit hungry, so naturally, she looked for places to get some food. Of course, being the mature unicorn she was, she decided to go to the bakery. Ensis entered the store, and was met with the smell of various baked goods. Muffins, loaves of bread, cookies, and cakes were all displayed, each one looking as tasty as the last. Ensis turned towards the counter as she heard a gasp.

"Oh my gosh! Somebody I haven't met! Ooh, who are you? I'm Pinkie Pie, but you can call me Pinkie!"

The bright pink earth pony hopped up and down, and walked around Ensis in circles, grinning the whole time, blue eyes sparkling with curiosity. The white unicorn frowned the slightest bit, confused the slightest bit, before answering.

"My name is Ensis Auctor. Nice to meet you," she muttered, looking around. The pink earth pony didn't pay much heed to Ensis' evident feeling of being uncomfortable, and grinned more.

"Nice to meet you, Ensis! What a silly name. Ooh, you need to meet my friends, come on!"

Pinkie grabbed Ensis and dragged her outside, and Ensis gazed longingly back at the bakery, practically hearing the baked goods calling out for her. Soon, the earth pony had dragged her to a park, letting out a yell.

"I'm here! Look, I brought a new friend!"

Several birds flew off, and a pink maned pegasus let out a small cry of surprise, before muttering a greeting to Pinkie Pie. Spotting the strange white unicorn with the dark brown mane, she lowered her gaze and hid behind her gaze, shyly.

"O-oh, hello."

"Hello. I'm Ensis Auctor, nice to meet you."

The shy pony nodded, and shifted uncomfortably, and was about to say something when Pinkie dragged Ensis off to the library. Feeling faintly annoyed, Ensis wondered what it could be that made the pony so hyperactive, but blinked when she saw where they were.

Pinkie had shoved her into a tree house- or rather, a house made inside a tree- filled with books. It occurred to her Pinkie had brought her to the library, and she began to turn to Pinkie to thank her before blinking and pausing. An owl was perched nearby, simply watching. Ensis blinked, rather unnerved by it, and was going to ask why an owl was in the library before a purple alicorn trotted downstairs, followed by a small dragon.

"Twilight, look! It's a new pony!"

Ensis blinked. Twilight as in Twilight Sparkle? The news of a unicorn being made a princess had reached as far as her homeland, and she was fairly surprised to meet her.

The alicorn smiled, before introducing herself, proving yes, she was indeed the Twilight Sparkle, and yes, the owl was meant to be there. She also introduced the dragon, Spike, who immediately turned to Ensis.

"I agree, that owl is weird," he whispered to her. Ensis nodded, before turning to them.

"Sorry, but I'm a bit tired, and need to stay somewhere, so mind telling me of a hotel or something of the sort?"

Twilight shook her head, before surprising Ensis.

"No, no, you can stay here if you like! It won't be a problem, I promise you."

Ensis blinked, before accepting the offer and being showed where she would sleep.
