Collt Lecter walked past sugar cube corner and saw couples snuggling, he sighed he always got a bit more lonely around hearts and hooves day, maybe Twillight Sparkle had some saucy books he could read, pizza always put him in a better mode.
“Hiya Lecter Specter watcha doing” asked a pink pony popping her head out of sugar cube corner.
“Oh hey Pinkie nothing much, just heading to the library” repiled the brown unicorn while walking away.
“Okie dokie lokie, you are coming back later tonight for my Hearts and hoofs day party right?” Questioned Pinkie while waving bye.
Collt laughed, it had been weeks since he'd been to a pinkie party.
Lost in thought, Collt wasn't watching where he was walking, as a result bumping into a cyan colored pegasus.
“Hey! why dont you watch where your...” The mare stopped as she noticed the stallion huddled in fear.
“Are you okay?” she started to ask.
Collt was staring at her flank, but more precisly her cutie mark, “Cloud Monster!” he screamed as he ran off.
Collt gasped he had escaped, the cloud monster had not caught him , he glanced around, he had somehow made it back to his home, so he went inside to nap untill nightfall.

Collt awakened and glanced at the clock on his wall, he had enough time to go look for some barn sales before Pinkie's party, ‘after all it is the reason for my cutie mark’ he mused as he took a minute to admire it. Just a simple cardboard box with the top flaps open it, symbolyized his passion for collecting odds an ends which adorned his walls, and with that he went outside.
It didn't take long before Collt found a barn sale going on at the Doo's house hold were he found a lawn dragon, its craftmanship was perfect, the price ‘only 30 bits, reasonable’ Collt thought as he walked to the mare running the sale, her husband was talking to her.
“Ditzy i'd love to stay and help, but works calls” as he headed inside.
Collt paid for the lawn dragon as he looked at the eyes of the grey coated, yellow maned mare with crossed eyes “Aren't you my mailmare?” he asked.
“Umm, well you see today being hearts and hooves day the mail.. is.. um cancelled, well thanks for buying that it gives my daughters the creeps” said Ditzy.
Collt nodded and walked off to set the dragon to guard his home, not that he ever thought anypony would break in, what did he have to take in the first place?
With the collecting done for the day, he headed off to sugar cube for the party when he relized something, this was a hearts and hoofs day party did that mean he had to bring a special somepony? He wasn't good with the mares he never was ever since his foalhood all the pega sisters ignored him.
With this in mind he decided he would lie and say he had a special somepony in Manehattan, with his story in mind he made his way off to Sugar cube corner, arriving at the party he went straight to Pinkie to ask where the punch was.
“Oh it over there by Berry, don't worry after you have some you'll be in a much more of a partying mood” said Pinkie.
Collt headed to the punch and got his glass and drank.

Collt woke up several hours later with a pain in his head, “um dearie partys over you can leave now” said a blue coated, pink maned earth pony.
Collt groaned as he pushed himself up and walked outside “what was in that punch? what did I do last night” he said a bit of a slur in his voice.
Collt then rembered that the cloud monster had distracted him from what he was doing yesterday, with that he headed off to the library.
When he entered he heard the librarian upstairs, “Spike its time to get up.”
Collt heard grumbles upstairs as the pony named spike aparently was getting up, but didn’t want to.
The unicorn librarian came downstairs with a purple dragon following her. Apparently Spike wasn't a pony.
“Now Spike you need to wake up earlier,” Twillight stopped as she noticed Collt.
“Oh hello my name is twillight sparkle whats yours?”
“Im Collt Lecter, I’m looking for some saucy books” replied Collt.
“Some what” asked Spike.
“Spike cover your ears” Twillight said rather loudly, “now why in Equstria are you looking for that kind of book anyway?” asked Twillight.
“I want to make a pizza I need help on the crust” repiled Collt.
Twillight facefoofed and shook her head.
“Why did you do that?” asked Collt, then thinking about it started to laugh “no no no I didn't mean that kinda saucy book I don't even know anypony who reads those.”
“Well I know a few but I cant give names” said Twilllight.
There was a crash from the roof as the cyan pegasus from eariler crashed inside.
“Rainbow dash can't you use the door like a normal pony?” complained Twillight.
“No time Twillight! I need the next Daring Doo book” said Rainbow.
Twillight sighed, one of these days she would teach Rainbow to use the door she handed over the book to Rainbow and looked around, where had that guy gone? She glanced at Spike still covering his ears. “Spike did you see anything?”
Spike uncovered his ears, “He yelled somthing about cloud monsters and ran off”.
“Didn't he want his saucy book?”
“What?” asked Rainbow and Spike.
“Nothing” Twillight said while blushing, embaressed by what she had said.
Collt was running as fast as he could away from the library, why? why did clouds freak him out so much he just couldn’t remember, he made it make to his home to sleep off his headache as he sleep his mind drifted off to dreams of his foalhood in Cloudsdale.
“Hey Collt ready to hang?” said the pegasus colt
“ Yah Crazy everyone else went to flight camp”.
Collt and Crazy had fun the next couple of hours playing kick the cloudball and other such games, after a while Collt remembered he had a very important thing he had to do at home. “Crazy I have to go see my dad, Cloud Walker.”
“Come on can't you play some more and go later? I brought snacks.” said Crazy hopefully.
The idea of food made Collt want to stay. “Okay I guess my dad can wait”.
It had not bin long before the magic keeping Collt cloud bound started to wear off as the clouds sank under his weight, then they gave out and he plummeted to his doom.
Collt woke up in a cold sweat remembering nothing of the dream. The next few weeks nothing special happened a donkey moved into ponyvill, the great dragon migration, that yellow pegasus collected the water needed , Gabby Gums wrote about him being fearfull of any images of clouds.
He was reading in the paper about wedding of Prince Shining and Princess Mi Amore Cadenza. “I wonder what that changeling invasion had to be like.
He went outside to collect like he always did, he stopped at his door way looked at his lawn dragon he smiled he heard music coming from center of town “Pinkie must have meet sompony new” he thought to himself.
He walked to the center of town and hid behind a bush to look at the new resident another fasion pony he could tell his cutie mark of a tophat with three smiley faces on it and a green vest, “some how I think ive meet this pegasus before” thought Collt.

My first story, tell me how to improve.
Collt sneaked over in his bush to overhear the conversation going on between Pinkie and this new pony.
"And then I pulled an alligator out of the tub, so that party I told you about how about tonight? Everypony will be there to welcome you to ponyville."
"I guess I'll come, maybe i'll make some new friends." responded the pegasus.
"A party"?, Collt thought to himself. Collt jumped out from the bush, "Ongaurd!"
The pegasus jumped backed, "what the hay stallion! scared me half to death." he said. Then he questionly stared at Collt's head "hmmm, this head could be perfect for a hat design I have in mind.
"Nopony is touching this this mane. Whatever your name is" Collt said while pointing to his head.
"Everypony gets a hat, eventully they all do for I am, Crazy Deals" said Crazy.
"Well i'll be the exception for I am, Collt lecter". Collt said then with a flash he trotted off.
"Is the rest of this town as weird as him?" Crazy asked.
Pinkie started to list off the ponies who acted weird "Well there's Twilight when she got worried about sending a letter to the princess, Dash and her Daring do books,...
Crazy began to think to himself "hmm if what she says is true then my habadashery won't get destoryed by changlings here, oh shes still talking"
... and thats everypony who is weird in ponyville, well see you tonight". Pinkie said before walking away.

"Everypony this is Mr. Crazy Deals a Habadasher extraordinaire "Now everypony mingle and party"! said Pinkie pie introducing the new stallion to the townsponies.
Crazy walked off to the punch where the weird Stallion from ealier was hanging around.
"Hey, whatcha you doing"? Asked Crazy.
"Well just hanging, why don't you talk to the others"? Asked the brown unicorn nervously.
"I would but something about you feels strangley famillar, have we meet some where before"? Asked Crazy
"I've don't think we have. by. My names Collt". Said Collt
"Id say your a stallion, you look much to old to be a colt". Repield Carzy humorously.
Collt droped his punch as he tried to explain himself more clearly.
"No no no, my name is Collt two l's full names Collt Lecter".
"Collt Lect... Excuse me I must go talk to Pinkie". Said Crazy.
"Where does he think he going off to im not done talking to him yet". Collt said, but he had forgotten that the floor was wet in punch and slipped hitting his face and blacking out.
"Um dude the partys over you have to go home now" said a sweet caring voice.
"Fluttershy"? Asked a half alseep Collt.
"Nope, just me Lyra heartstrings" said a mint green unicorn as she came into Collts view.
"I guess i'll head home now" Collt started to say, but a massive aching in his head made him just start walking home.
As Collt was walking home he did not notice that somepony had borrowed a bush and was following him.
"Now if he did this yesterday and nopony noticed, wait a minute sneaky sneaky I'm a bush". Thought Crazy.
"Urrg, such a pain in my head and horn im not going to party that hard again wait just who are you Mr. follow bush".
"..." replied the bush.
"Not talking eh, must be one of those non-talking bushes".
The bushed sighed.
"I'll make you talk later, now I have to be going" Collt said as he walked off.
"That was close he almost found me". Crazy said, "now to find out exactly who this guy is". Crazy said as he started off to sugar cube corner.
Crazy started to knock on the door but it fell down before he had the chance.
"Hi there Mr. Crazy how was your party, oh was I not spose to break the door down till after you knocked" said Pinkie.
Crazy shoke his head, "Yes Pinkie it was fantastic! I will have to repay you somehow, perhaps with a hat, but unfortunately I need to know where that Collt Lecter lives". Crazy said.
"Oh thats easy silly come and follow me" Pinkie said as she started to hop away.
When they reached Collt's home the could hear complete silence coming from
"Do you know when he might be home i had some questions for him"? Questioned Crazy.
"Well lets just say that there he wont be home for awhile he heads off to places all around in search of stuff to collect and trade he holds the all time record for rides on the train, he isn't usally around till night ". Said Pinkie
"You know Pinkie im pretty sure that i've meet him before".
"Well this is where I have to make my leave my breaks probly over, and im pretty sure you meet him before too" Pinkie said she turned and winked to thin air.
"Well this has been a very weird day, well off to my habadashery, the grand opening is tommorow".
