A Lost Note

As they walked into Sugarcube Corner Note saw many different ponies sitting at tables eating interesting looking food. She had never seen this kind of eatery before. It looked like no food she had ever seen. It had swirls and interesting designs on the brightly colored surfaces. The smell of the place was tantalizing. It was sweet and reminded her of the faint memories of Connacht before the evil King Seamus and Queen Maeve came into power. It was so odd, even the furniture smelled a sweet scent.

Vinyl walked up to the front where a pink pony with curly hair stood hopping up and down. Her hair was so curly it seamed to be to big for her head. She didn't even stop bouncing to go to the back to check on the oven.

This pony is REALLY energetic. Note thought as the pony hopped back out of the kitchen to come look at the sweets in the display at the counter. Her mouth watered as she looked at the treats. Pinkie looked up at Vinyl and Note.

"Oh, hi DJ Pon3! Who's your friend? Is she new? Can we have a welcome to Ponyville party? Can we,"

Note stumbled back. This pony was filled with a crazy amount of energy, she almost couldn't take it.

"Is she ok? Does she need a treat? How about a Zap Apple cake or a Lemony Sweet cookie! It was Lemon Heart's idea. How about-"

Vinyl stuck her hoof in her mouth.

"No, shes ok. She is new here and isn't used to your energy. Her name is Razor Note!" Vinyl hoped that Note would start introducing herself without her help but she obviously needed time.

"Uhh, hi." Note murmured.

There was an awkward silence.Even Pinkie didn't say anything. Note eyed the Zapapple cakes closely.

"Do you want one of the cakes? I could get it for you!" Pinkie said trying to contain herself.

"Yes please." Note almost whispered.

"Ok, I guess I'll go to the back then." Pinkie said staring at the not-so energetic pegasis.

Note just stood there, not moving, waiting for Pinkie to come back out. The sweet shop was bustling with activity. Ponies sat and talked. Some ponies were stuffing their faces with sweets. Note looked over at the door as it opened and rung. The gray pegasis wobbled in. She looked as if she had been in a lightning storm. Her golden mane was all burnt and messed up. She staggered up to the counter and hit the bell really hard over and over again.

"I hear ya' I hear ya'!" Pinkie yelled from the back. She bounced up to the counter to see Derpy pounding on the poor bell that was mangled and was only making a faint thud noise every time she hit it. Derpy stopped pounding the mangled bell for a second looking at what she was hitting.

"Oops," Derpy said scrunching her nose and derping her eyes, "can I have, um, uh, a um, a Zappapple Cupcake?"

"Sure Derpy! Comi'n right up!" Pinkie said with a smile, "First let me give this young filly her Lemon Cake!" she slid a spongy yellow cake across the counter on some wax paper. "Enjoy!" Pinkie said smiling. Note still was to unsure to reply. She saw Vinyl gesture to a table. She trotted over to the candy coated chair caying the treat in her mouth. She sat down and lay her cake on the table. Unsure, she took a bite of the spongy cake and her eyes widened. She couldn't believe it, this was amazing! She had never eaten something so tasty in her entire life! She shoved her face into the yellow frosting covered cake.

"You like it huh?" Vinyl asked.

Note nodded enthusiastically lifting her head up from the cake. Her purple face was covered in frosting and cake crumbs.

Laughing Vinyl picked up a napkin with her glowing blue magic, "You have a little some thing right there." pointing to her entire face. As Note giggled Vinyl wiped the crumbs from her face.

"May I have another?" she asked looking at the other sweets.

"No not right now. If I let you you would probably eat all of the sweets in Equestria. We need to go see my friend Octavia anyway, lets go!" Vinyl said walking out of the sweet shop. Note followed her out the candy covered door hankering for another new experience.
