Together We're Homefree
Chapter 3
Previous ChapterNext ChapterWe had walked for a few minutes and discussed all sorts of things like, where we came from, what our talents were,
- I already knew what her was but I had to use the talent I came up with when I made my own OC, which was manipulating clouds too creating and aim lightning. - we also talked about our friends and as I expected she were friends all of the "mane six" except for Twilight. Fluttershy seemed to be much more secure talking to me, she was kinda hard to reach in the beginning, but I realized that there was no point in forcing her to talk to me so I just approached conversation very slowly and it turns out that she is really likes too talk, you just have to give her time and make her feel safe around you and don't startle her.
One thing she never asked me is why we sat up camp in the Everfree forest,
I just assumed that there was a tiny sliver of it that was safe to enter without anything happening so I just rolled with it.
"well, here we are mister, Ponyville." the yellow coated pegasus said and pointed at a small town.
(Since I'm lazier than Rainbow dash I'm not going to describe how it looks I'm just going to show you a picture and just imagine we're at the right corner)
"WOW! Look at that thing! And that one! Oh! And especially that!" I exclaimed in awe as I looked around at the different things.
"I know it's a small town but it has its charms." Fluttershy said with a small grin on her face.
"It was nice meeting you mister, I hope we see each other some other time, but for now I have to go and practise so you're going to have to find the way around yourself." she said and looked at me.
"I say the same thing to you and wish you good luck with the practicing, I expect big things from you!" I said and nodded my head down slowly, her face blushed. "Thank you, see you again." She yelped and walked of.
"See ya'!" I said with a smile and watched her walk away to the right. I looked back at town and sighed.
"This is going to take a while..." I said to myself and started walking towards the town hall.
As I looked around the fantastic little town for A I noticed there were not much decorations up, (considering the sun celebration was just around the corner) there were some ponies hanging up stripes a little here and there and some tents spred around in various locations. I assumed that all the real decorations were in town hall. I stopped and looked at the Ponyville town hall, it looked much bigger than I imagined. "Maybe I should ask some of the other ponies before I consulted the mayor or any higher authorities about it." I said quietly to myself and turned a bit to the left and started walking deeper into the town.
I had noticed that walking on all fours like this wasn't a problem for some reason. It felt like I had been walking like this my entire life, it felt kinda good actually.
A navy blue coated female unicorn approached*. She had pink hair that looked a little like the hair from some flexible chick I've seen from somewhere... but where?* anyway, she also had a short pink tail too. She may have looked a lot like the other mares but something was different about her... I felt like I had seen her from somewhere, just couldn't put my finger, sorry, hoof on it.
I trotted up to her.
"Hey there!" i said and waved my hoof to get her attention. "Hello" she replied with a smile.
"Hi, I came here with my friend here and then somehow we kinda lost each other in the process. Have you seen him? He is about average height, a little younger than me, red coat, coral maned pegasus."
"no sorry, can't seem to recall it. Pinkie pie might know something, she knows everything about everypony." "isn't that kinda weird?" I asked. "Yeah kinda... anyway she's probably in Sugarcube corner right now preparing decorations and cake." she said and pointed to the café. "Thank you very much." I nodded and was about to go.
"by the way" i said and turned around looking at her beautiful face once again. "Have we met before?" "I don't think so." "in case, what's your name?" I said with a smile. "Pink Berry" she replied with a smile. "And yours?" "Thunder Struck but you can call me TS" I said and winked, she giggled. "Ok, TS, se you around" she said and started walking. "And the same to you madam." I replied and bowed but fell face first to the ground.
She laughed, shook her head and kept walking.
"Smooth moves Copiad*" I said to myself with my face still in the ground.
I raised myself from the ground and dusted myself of and started walking towards Sugarcube corner.
When I got to the candy covered café I looked up to inspect the building.
It looked surprisingly more sugar coated then in the show.
"Sweet!" I said and opened the door and poked my head in. Inside there was a very low supply of sugar and or candy.
There were some shelves with candy on the right and a few cupcakes and muffins on the counter, probably had more in the back.
I didn't find neither of the cakes or Pinkie anywhere so I poked my head in a bit longer into the café.
"Hello?" I said and there was no answer. Suddenly a pink figure shot up from under me.
"HI!" it said and sounded like the waitress form Birdemic*.
I screamed like a little girl, my hair and tail went straight up and I flew out of the door and landed of my back.
The pink figure, - which turned out to be Pinke, Yeah, I'm shocked to! - stood on top of me.
She giggled. "Sorry for that mister but I didn't think you were going to that easily scared! Want a hoof?"
I looked up and handed her my hoof. I got up and rubbed my head.
"I'm Pinkie Pie but you can call me Pinkie or Pie, Pinkster, Pinketron 9000, Pinkelicious, that rhymes with delicious, you know what's delicious? Candy! Can't get enough of it! I'm getting of track, what's you name?" I looked at her with a raised eyebrow. "My name is Thunder Struck but you can call me TS" she opened her mouth and I put my hoof against it to shut her up. "Just TS".
"Well, TS, what brings you to Sugarcube corner?" she smiled and tilted her head.
"I was wondering if you had seen my friend, a coral maned, red coated pegasus. Know anything about him?"
"OH yeah! He came round here asking about you! Didn't tell me his name though which i weird since I know everything about everypony who lives and passes Ponyville. Anyway, I told him that you might be at the Celebration or at my party later which I invited him to and he said he'd be there and OH! That reminds me! Do you wanna come because you won't find your friend at the party if you're not invited! so, do you wanna? huh? huh? huh?" She jumped up and down around me.
"I gladly accept." I said. "Now, you said he didn't mention his name?" I asked. "I don't know, probably you wrote this script!" Pinkie stared into the nothingness... What? "Oh you know what I want! You put me in this fanfic of yours just to have a quick and cheap cameo!" Pinkie just take it easy! Why are you so aggressive all of a sudden? I mean it's not easy to do this! I have writer's block every now and then. Besides, you are the only one who can speak directly to me.
"I know but I want my payment now!"... *sigh*, I hate it when you brake the 4th wall...
Pinkie had talked in random sentences for a minute so, like she talked to a ghost, I reached my hoof out and...
"OH NO YOU DON'T! Don't get your bad OC into this! This is an argument between you and me C!" AUGH, FINE! Here!
A big light blue cannon* popped up infront of Pinkie.
But you can only use it later when the actual writers tell you to! OK? "Deal!"
I looked long and confused at the mare as she put the canon away.
"... OH!" Pinkie finally after a long moment of silence said and pulled up a piece paper.
"Yadda yadda yadda! You are suppose to look in Rarity's boutique cause he asked for clothes blah blah blah!"
I stood still and stared at her with an open mouth and a raised eyebrow.
"Go.. schu!" she said and lightly pushed me off.
I slowly walked backwards out then turned around still shocked about what happened.
I shook my head trying to repress what had just happened.
"well... guess I'm going to have a Nightmare night* tonight..."
I walked off trying to find the extremely over the top boutique which wasn't hard to find considering all the other buildings looked like old cabins compared to it.
When I came to the boutique I noticed that there was no open sign. I looked inside the window and saw nobody there.
I started to worry that Rarity wasn't there so I knocked on the door and after a few seconds I heard a faint familiar voice.
"I'll in a couple of minutes darling~" "This is more of a personal matter" I shouted. "I'll take it!" shouted another squeaking voice.
"AAH!" I heard a crashing sound and objects falling over.
"Oops..."
"SWEETIE BELLE!?"
I'll clean it up later I promised!" the squeaking filly said.
The door opened and I looked down and was greeted with a small white coated filly named Sweetie Belle.
"Hey there mister!" she said. "Rarity will be here soon she is about to finish her latest dress."
I smiled. "Well, do you she would mind if I came in for a bit, I just need to speak to her for a minute."
"Sure!" she shouted, - hurting my ears a bit from the voice crack, - and showed me in.
Inside was this extremely girly clothing area, like if Barbie barfed glitter on a Victorias secret that was inside a stable!
There where some mannequins fallen over and a piece of fabric on the floor.
"Dumb fabric..." Sweetie Belle said. "Well, take a seat somewhere when clean up this mess." she said pointing at some chairs and sofas.
"Thanks, I can help you if you want" "It's ok, you are the guest/customer after all!" she and started picking up the mannequins.
I sat down on one of the sofas and looked around. Sweetie Belle gave me a confused look.
"hm?" I said raising both eyebrows. "Is that how you sit? You look like Rarity, only that you're a stallion." she said with a slight giggle.
I looked down and realized I kinda looked like Lyra, sitting like I usually do with my legs crossed and hands/hoofs on my lap.
"Uuh..." I looked up. "Yeah! I prefer to sit this way, feels nice." and awkward silence filled the room.
"Oh...OK" she continued to clean up as more awkward silence filled the room.
Rarity came into the room. "Hello darling~!" the mare said fixed her mane with her hoof.
"Sorry if I took so long, I just simply HAD to finish my new dress or it would have been THE WORST POSSIBLE THING!"
"Well, now you're here and that's the important thing miss Rarity." I smiled and bowed.
"Oh! A real gentlecolt! So, to whom do I own this honor of meeting?" she said and started to curtsy.
"My name is Thunder Struck and I'm here to ask if you know anything about my friend."
"And I shall answer the question but over some tea and sweets! Follow me to the kitchen." she said and started walking to the back of the boutique.
Sweetie Belle finished up her cleaning and started walking upstairs to what I assumed was her room while I followed Rarity into the kitchen to discuss the reason for my adventure, A.
