"Ponyville." The white Pegasus said while he stepped of the train, adjusting his guitar strap.

The sun beamed down on him, he squinted. "The sun sure is brighter here." He claims as he puts on his sunglasses, walking into Main Street.

      It was a peaceful 2:25 P.M, The air was calm and serene. Ponies walked the dirt streets, heading in and out of shops.  He sighs in relief. "Perfect." He said. "Just what I needed to get away."

        Crashie's stomach screamed. He realized something he hadn't had experienced in a long time - lunch time. He trotted over to The marketplace, hoping to grasp something worth his bits.

                                                            *

"That'll be 10 bits." The cherry seller said to a yellow, pink maned Pegasus. She put her head down and sighed. "I'm sorry sir, i don't have that much."

     She reaches on her Saddlebag for the bits she does have, which was about 7. "Will this do?"

The cherry seller disagreed. "It's either 10 bits or nothing, kid. Sorry."

Fluttershy hangs her head down again as she turns the other way. "Ok, I'll  just go then. It's nothing really." She starts to walk away.

"Hold up bud!" Crashie darts to the cherry stand. "You want 1 cherry for 10 bits!? That's a little outrageous don't you think?" He gets all up in the cherry seller's face, which practically had "guilty" written all over it.

"Hey there, uh, take it easy ok?" He responds in panic. "Tell you what; I'll lower the price to 1 bit. But only this once. We gotta deal?"

Crashie drops 1 bit on the stand and puts the cherry stem in his mouth. "Deal." He mutters with a smile. "Thank you for your understanding."

Fluttershy was just about to leave when Crashie called out. "Hey!"

She didn't even turn around until he put the cherry in her saddlebag. Her eyes widen. "Could it be?" She thought.

"I got you that cherry, hope he wasn't a bother to you." He smiled.

"Oh, umm, I'm fine now. Thank you." Fluttershy blushes a little, brushing her bangs out of her face.

"You look familiar. Have we...?" Fluttershy speaks up before Crashie could finish.

"You don't remember, do you?" She came closer, giggling.

"Uhh...no, I don't. All I remember was crashing into a tree and this yellow...." His eyes widen in amazement as he finished his sentence. "Pegasus helped me to remove all the sap."

Fluttershy nods in agreement with a smile. "Correct."

Crashie smiles at her reply. "So, what brings you here? If u don't mind me asking."

"Oh, I'm here to pick up a cherry for a special ice cream Sunday my bunny, Angel, wants."

"Looks like I just owed you back, then." He smirks.

Fluttershy blushes.

"Wait, you got a bunny?" He asked.

"Oh yes, I take care all the woodland creatures."

She gasps and puts on a big smile, floating 4 inches off the ground. "Do you want a pet?" She insists, as excited as a bear with honey.

Crashie seemed tempted, yet a little nervous. "Well, I mean, if it's not any...."

"Oh how wonderful! You two are going to be the best of friends I'm sure of it!" She exclaims as she tugs on his hoof, leading him in the direction of the cottage. Crashie blushes.
