"Huh...the skies sure are sunny today...I wonder what will welcome me here..." I remarked, as I read the sign that spells out "WELCOME TO PONYVILLE!"... "Well, I guess that this must be a good place. Hey...what is that gray thing over there?" It seems I have just spotted a gray pony with a blonde mane hanging off to the side. After it looked at me, no matter how mysterious I must be, clad in my dark robes, I could tell that it was a mare that has yellow eyes, but one of them seemed to be more different than a lazy eye. As she tried to speak, her voice sounded low, and a bit broken?

"Welcome to Ponyville! My name is Ditsy Hooves! But if you want to, you can just call me Derpy! I carry letters all around Ponyville with my trust-yyy wings!" So...she was a pegasus pony named 'Derpy'. Well, that's quite a nice name and all, but it would be nicer if she gave me directions.

"Ugh, Derpy! Do you HAVE to trouble all the new townsfolk? I mean, seriously! He seems to have had a long day!" Well...this is a pretty mare that I seem to be attracted to has a rainbow mane and a cyan coat. "Hey, I'm Rainbow Dash, and I can see you are new here in Ponyville. Want me to show you around, Uhh?"

"Well, hello Rainbow Dash. My name is Echo Song, but if you want, you can call me Echo. And, yes, I would appreciate if you could give me a tour. Although, can you make sure it doesn't last until late? I have to meet a mare that you may-"

"Got a little date that you need to be getting to? Ah, who am I kiddin' a pony like you would never be able to know a mare that fast!" Haha! Anyways, why are you wearing those robes? It's quite hot around here, let me just take those off for you!"

I tried with all my breath to protest, but she ripped off my disguise faster than she dashed over to me. Oh no...she must be freaking out now, I think, as my groomed misty blue coat, Pegasus wings, and Unicorn horn come to view. Well, just her view, since she is right in front of me.

*Gasp!* "U-Unicorn horn.....P-Pegasus wings! I only know two others that look like that! You must be an Alicorn! I thought only Princess Celestia and Nightmare Moon- I mean Princess Luna were Alicorns!"

"SHH! You can't let anybody know! I came here just Because somepony found out in my last town!" I grab her by the shoulders tightly, making her look deep into my eyes.

"Why do you have Alicorn features? Are you a spy?!? Just wait until I drag you off to Princess Celestia!" She somehow throws me off, then puts me in a strangulating choke hold

A familiar voice sounds behind Rainbow Dash, and I just gave a sigh of relief. "Why exactly are you holding my friend in a chokehold, about to fly?" It was Princess Luna! Your best friend! "I demand you drop him right now, Rainbow Dash" He has done NOTHING to make you act like this!" She was using her Royal Canterlot voice. Oh no....my ears are about to explode.

Princess Luna and I were sitting outside Sugarcube corner, waiting for our lunch. Rainbow Dash was there too, but after the misunderstanding back at the town square, she was covered in bandages and gauze wraps. She kept apologizing, but after the third time, it got annoying.....very annoying. "Ooooh! Luna, I'm SO sorry about hurting your friend! I SO didn't know that you knew him! I'm so-"

"Rainbow, like I told you the last 19 times, It is fine! You just didn't know!" It was the first time I'd raised my voice like this in a long time. I didn't even yell when I was practically mugged by three fillies with a catchy name...what was it? AH, yes, the Cutie Mark Crusaders! Rainbow Dash, Luna, and I were the only ones who knew I was an alicorn, and I intend to keep it that way.

"Just Please stop apologizing! If you keep it up, you will get over excited and hurt yourself again. I am the one who should be apologizing, after all..." She started blushing, as she obviously remembered what had happened...It was quite a long story....

"Ah! Princess Luna! It's you!"

"Nightmare- I mean, LUNA! Do you SEE this imposter?!?!" She once again ripped my robes off to reveal my body. How many times is she going to do that?

"Rainbow, I have known Echo for a long time, and I know that he is an alicorn!" The next part she muttered a part she thought nopony would her. "A handsome alicorn at that!" It was then that I started blushing, and Rainbow burst out laughing. Of course, that just egged Luna on....and she cast a painful spell, and mixed it with a spell that turned Rainbow's face into one of an old hermit.

"Well.....it looks like our food is here. Are you sure you don't want anything, Rainbow Dash? I have enough bits to feed all of Canterlot and Cloudsdale. I could spare some for you, as long as it is okay!" She still denied my bits. She can be as stubborn as an ass sometimes! Of course I just had to tell her that to her face. Big mistake...

"W-what the hay?!?! Ooh, Echosong, I am SO going to kill you when I get out of this! I-I mean....that...wasn't....oh, buck it! I messed up!" I actually thought this was funny. Luna just burst out laughing. She finally spoke again.

"My dear Rainbow, you don't have to censor yourself! It's ok, nopony else can hear! Anyways, Echo...what brings you here to the quiet town of Ponyville?" Well, I knew it couldn't be avoided...guess I'd better tell her...
