The Story of Mr Allan in Equestria
Getting a date
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI woke up in my bed, I felt ready for the day. I got up and picked up my camera and put my Sunglasses on my head and prepared leave when I heard voices in the next room.
"Hi Twilight!"
"Hi Lyra, why did you want to come over again?"
"I just wanted to ask you something about Allan."
"Why?"
"Is he dating anypony at the moment?"
The rest of the conversation was cut off when I entered the room. Lyra looked at me "Good morning Allan." she said cheerfully.
"Good morning Lyra, good morning Twilight." I walked over to get some breakfast from the table.
Lyra noticed I was ready to leave "You look like your ready for quite the day." I swallowed they hay in my mouth then turned to Lyra.
"I'm going over to hang out with Rainbow dash."
"Well it's nice to see your making new friends." Lyra was happy to see me happy.
Twilight turned to Lyra "Were headed out soon, hows bon bon?"
"She's been fine actually after her break up anyway. I've been doing what I can for her and all."
While they were talking I finished my breakfast, I walked over to the two "Alright Lyra, we're gonna head out."
"Okay, have fun." Lyra then left for home.
"Where are we gonna meet up after I get Rainbow dash?" I asked.
"All of the activities will take place in the field. I'm going invite some of the other girls so it's not awkward."
I nodded and zoomed off towards Rainbow dash's address.
________________________________________________________________
I arrived at Rainbow dash's cloud house. I flew up and knocked on the door. I waited a bit and then the door opened inward to the sight of the Rainbow maned mare herself. "Oh hey Allan, ready to hang out?"
"Yeah, wanna head to the field?"
"Sure."
We headed to the field as I saw Twilight, Rarity and Applejack waiting for us. We landed next to the tree and walked up to them "Howdy there Allan and Rainbow."
I turned to Twilight while they greeted Rainbow "So what do you have planned for today?"
Twilight levitated a short list in front of me, the list itself had only three items on it. "My intention is to get these things done over the course of the week, in a curtain order."
"So I'm guessing we start the first three days with 'flight practice'?"
"Yeah, I thought Rainbow dash could probably teach you a few things."
"If that's the case then I'd like you to record all this." I gave Twilight the camera and she levitated it in front of herself. "Just press that button there, and it will start recording. To stop recording press it again." Twilight nodded her head and proceeded to examine the camera.
We walked over to Rainbow dash and Twilight told her what to do. "Sure, I can teach him a few moves, he's already better than the average Pegasus." Rainbow dash turned to me "Alright first let's start with some spins..."
The three days of training with Rainbow dash became some of the best three days of my life, and most painful. I was put through many physical exercises from 'wing ups' to two hours of none stop flight. In the end she seemed impressed with all my hard work. Next thing on the list was taking something called the 'loyalty test'.
Rainbow dash got me to go through a few situations where I had to help somepony out, two pony's each day for another three days with the help of Rainbow dash. The first was Twilight at the Library.

"So, let me get this strait. You want us to reorganize that shelf?" I pointed my hoof at the shelf named natural history, with over fifty books.
Twilight nodded her head. Me and Rainbow dash flouted up to the shelf "Do you... ...have any specific details?"
"Place them in historical order starting from the founding of Equestria all the way to modern lifestyles." I turned to Rainbow dash.
"We'll just guess."
For about half an hour we were shouted at by Twilight for getting the shelf order backwards... ...five times. After another half hour we finally finished reorganizing the shelf. Twilight rewarded me with ten 'bits' for the next time I go shopping.
Next was helping Applejack, she needed some help bucking some tree's.
________________________________________________________________________
Upon arrival Applejack introduced me to her big brother, and when I say big brother I mean he was way bigger then me. He looked calm compared to other ponies I've seen around ponyville.
Applejack led me and Rainbow dash over towards what looked like a private stock of tree's. "I count about thirty tree's."
"We need some more apples for next month's home supply, so you two will be bucking them apple's into those buckets, then me and Big Mac will take them in when your done."
Me and Rainbow dash started bucking the tree's as ordered. It was harder than I thought it would be, but considering I was no Earth pony I could understand why it was harder. After about an hour we were finished and I escorted Rainbow dash back to her home.
"Well the week has been fun so far."
I sighed "And tiring." Rainbow dash giggled a bit.
"Well that's what you can expect when your completely loyal to your friends."
We arrived at her cloud house "So Allan, I was wondering if you were going to the Gala."
Before I could answer her the cross-eyed mail mare interrupted "Letter here for Rainbow dash."
"Oh hey, thanks Derpy." Derpy gave Rainbow dash the letter and flew off.
"Anyway, I better be going, it's getting late and I have to check over all the things we recorded."
Rainbow dash opened the letter and confetti flew out "We invite you too the welcoming party for a new pony in town, the party will start after 12:00PM on Friday at Sugar cube corner."
"I guess we know what Pinkie's job for me is."
Rainbow dash yawned "Well lets get some sleep, we've got allot to do tomorrow."
We both said good night to each other and I flew back to the Library.
I entered my room and went to sleep, ready for whatever the world threw at me for tomorrow...
_______________________________________________________________________
"...NOT THE BEE'S! NOT THE BEE'S, AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed in panic as a swarm of bee's chased me around Fluttershy's cottage. She asked me and Rainbow dash to help her feed the animals. The three things she told us to feed were a few rabbits with carrots, a few birds in their nests for the young, and a bee's nest.
Rainbow dash was laughing her hooves off as she watched me being chased by a swarm of bee's. "You need any help there Allan?" She asked while holding in her remaining laughter.
"AAAAAAAAHHH, THEIR IN MY EYE'S, AAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!!!"
Fluttershy eventually arrived with a bowl of honey and a bucket of flowers. "It's okay little guy's, I've got the flower's and honey."
The bee's stopped chasing me and flew strait for the bowl and the bucket. I stopped galloping around and walked up to Rainbow dash. "I can handle anything from being yelled at for messing up to flying across continents. But when you put BEE'S in the mix, I just can't handle it."
Rainbow dash wiped a tear from her eye "That was possibly the funniest thing I ever seen. Are you okay?"
"Yeah, other than the thousands of stings I received, both eye's by the way, I'm fine."
Rainbow dash and myself finished off what we were doing at Fluttershy's cottage and headed to Rarity's boutique.
When we arrived Rarity greeted while measuring my size "Well hello darling, I need you to model while I size the right suit for you when we all go to the Gala."
"I'm getting a suit?"
"Of course darling, you can't simply expect to take that vest of yours to 'The Grand Galloping Gala' can you?" I took the hint and got onto the model stand. "This won't take long darling I just need your size then you can go."
Rarity took ten minute's trying to find the right size fabric to put on the suit and then asked me to try out one of her pre-made suit's which took about twenty five minute's.
After she was done we left and like the day before I escorted Rainbow dash home.
___________________________________________________________________
On day six of the week Rainbow dash said she need some help cloud busting. I hurried over to her cloud house and she led me to where she needed help. Turns out she needed help clearing out some storm clouds from town square.
"So we just pretty much hit the clouds to get rid of them?"
Rainbow dash dragged a cloud and kicked it forcing it to break apart "Only with storm clouds you gotta break them fast or they'll merge with the others and create a storm." She looked around and saw a few storm clouds getting closer to each other. "You take the left, I'll take the right. Go!"
We both rushed towards the clouds on our sides of the sky. I flew through three fast, I took a glance over to Rainbow dash as she stormed through them with ease. I continued to bash the clouds like fight practice until I noticed a larger storm cloud. I could almost instantly tell a few clouds merged before we could get them.
Rainbow dash flew up to me, grabbed my hoof and dashed me towards the large storm "The best way to get rid of a merged cloud is with two ponies. You ready?"
"Yeah."
She skidded in the air and let go of my hoof launching me towards the cloud at top speed. I hit the cloud with force making it break apart into a bunch of smaller storm clouds. When I recovered from the launch I turned to see Rainbow dash destroying the remaining clouds. Once done, she hovered in front of me.
"Good job Allan, you did good back there. Hey it's almost twelve wanna head over to Sugar cube corner?"
"Yeah, I'm in, a party would be cool."
__________________________________________________________________
We arrived at sugar cube corner for the party. Upon entering, the light burst on and what looked like everypony in town yelled surprise. Then Pinkie Pie appeared out of nowhere "Hi there, I'm Pinkie Pie and I threw this party just for you. Were you surprised wereyouwereyouwereyou?"
"Yeah, I didn't expect every pony in town to be here."
"Oh don't be silly, I couldn't get EVERY pony in town. Sadly we're missing Lyra, she isn't in town at the moment."
My expression slightly changed, but I didn't let that get me down. "Oh well, this looks like it's gonna be a fun party."
Pinkies face lit up "Then LET'S GET THIS PARTY, STARTED!"
The party lasted a good five hours, about one were very memorable at that party though.
So, I may have gotten a little drunk. "I LOVE EVERYTHING!" okay I was really drunk.
"Is he okay?"
I turned to the stallion who said that. "YOU WHAT?! MATE, DON'T TEST ME MATE!" The stallion just so happened to be Applejack's big brother.
"Uh...."
"DRINKING CONTEST, NOW!" I dragged two gallons of an alcoholic drink I'd never heard of, but apparently it was strong.
"Um, I think you might of had enough already."
I tilted my head at him and twitched my eye "Mate, I'm way past that line! I...I'm like MILES past the line! HECK, I'm so far past the line that I can't even see it any more, AND IT WAS SLOPPED!!!"
He gave me a highly confused look "NOW DRINK MAN, or forever hold your piece."
He took the gallon of alcohol and opened the lid "Are you sure you wanna do this, it's suicide."
"READY? THREE TWO ONE GO!!!!" I stuck the top of the jug in my mussel and started gulping down the litres of alcohol while Big Mac just stared at me with an open jaw. I quickly started to draw a crowd.
"JUG! JUG! JUG! JUG!" the crowd cheered me on as I got a quarter through it without a break. Every drop that went down my throat was disregarded as my intention was to finish the whole thing in one.
After one minute and thirty seconds I finally finished, I slammed the jug onto a table and yelled "ANOTHER!" The crowd roared as I went over to get another gallon of alcohol.
Another hour into the party and I had drunk half the bar at this point, everypony in the room seemed to be in shock that I was still alive. I didn't care "I...I...I may be a bit... ...drunk so.... ...uh oh..." I suddenly felt the horrible sensation of heavy fluid raising through my throat. "Where's the Bathroom?!" Pinkie pointed up the stairs "Thank you." I then galloped up the stair's at top speed. I'll spare you the details but it was messy.
It was another hour before I went back downstairs, I walked up to Rainbow dash. "Hey big guy, you look like your having too much to drink."
I placed a hoof on her shoulder "Between you and me, I'm actually not that much of a drinker."
She looked me up and down "Yeah.... ....I can tell."
"I think I'm going to need a nice soft drink... ...and a taxi."
Rainbow dash giggled "Lets start with that soft drink shall we?" I nodded and she helped me over to the bar and ordered me a soft drink.
I couldn't remember a thing from there.

The next morning I woke up with the biggest headache I've ever had. On the bright side I was laying comfortable on a nice, cloud bed. I closed my eye's to rest a bit longer, until I realized... "Wait, I don't have a cloud bed."
"That's because it's not your bed." I looked over to the other side of the room. Rainbow dash was standing there looking at me. "I'm guessing you don't remember much of what happened last night either?"
"Nope."
"Well the last thing I remember was Twilight asking me if I could take you in for the night so I said sure."
I looked around then back to Rainbow dash "Is this your bed?"
"Yeah, I slept on the couch so you could have a good nights sleep when you woke up."
"Well that's very friendly of you Rainbow dash. Well shall we see whats for breakfast?" I got out of the bed slowly, still recovering from last night. We went into kitchen and Rainbow dash made some breakfast for us real quick so we could get on with the last days activity. After breakfast Rainbow dash gave me an Ice pack and I place it on my head. We then went over to the Library and Twilight told us to go to the field for the days activity. We walked over to the field and sat down I looked at the list Twilight had given me of the activities, today's being 'Relax'.
"Well, this week has been fun right Allan?" I replied with nod, I was nervous, clearly this was suppose to be the day I ask her to the Gala. I took a deep breath and was about to speak until...
"Hey Allan, can I ask you something?" I let her ask her question before I asked mine.
"Sure, what is it?"
Rainbow dash took a deep breath "I heard you were going to the Gala and I was wondering if, well, we could go together."
I was in shock that Rainbow dash asked me to go to the Gala with her "Do you mean like...?"
"On a date? You could say that." she was blushing a bit.
I almost feinted from the offer "Of course Rainbow, I can't drop an offer like that from you."
She smiled and hugged me "Well it's tomorrow afternoon so lets just relax for today and enjoy the sunlight." She rested her head on my shoulder. "It truly is going to be, the best night ever."
