Chapter 1
One sunny afternoon in Ponyville with ponies buying supplies from vendors
and a trio of fillies trying to find their Cutie Marks with mane brand schemes and
Rainbow Dash flying with extremely awesome moves such as the flying double super loop dive which is not for the faint of heart or the less awesome. When a Pegasus flies to the towards the sun, so close that it can feel its feathers starting to burn, the Pegasus must dive backwards whilst making loop de loops in the sky.
Derpy Ditsy Doo was flying over Ponyville humming her favorite song:
”Hm...Hm...Baby I’ll be...Hmmmmmmm Muffin Through..” she was really in to this
song that she did not notice that she was hovering over a Purple Desert. Curious
Derpy flew down and found herself in a town covered in purple hardened clay.
The town had may mysterious pony statues covered in the purple stuff. To get a better
view of the town Derpy flew upwards and saw a square-fort like castle. Derpy flew to
the castle to see if any pony could what was going on.
Derpy flew through an alcove and saw a pony with a crown upon her head
which Derpy jumped to the conclusion that it was a Princess statue. Seeing the state of
some birds that had left there imprints left Derpy to take out her trusty Derpulator - a soap potion that she made
when she was a filly. (Thanks to her Bubbly Personality.)
After a few minutes that felt like hours of cleaning “the statue” Derpy hears a voice she looks everywhere
until she looks up at the statues head.
“Hello What is our name?”
Derpy ignores the question and thinks its because of the hunger and takes a bite in to
her muffin that has came from her saddle bag.
“Hey! Don’t ignore me you Ditsy mare! tell me your name.”
Derpy finally realized that the statue was talking to her so she decides to mime her
name. Derpy puts her hoof to her ear.
“Sounds like...”
Derpy then points to a singing bird.
“Bird?... Heard? that’s your names sounds kinda stupid- wait no that's not your name?
Hmm...it’s chirping now...er Chirpy? Derpy? Derpy... your name is Derpy. Huh that's
a cool name...I guess...So what happened?”
Derpy flew around the courtyard.
“You were flying?”
Derpy stopped flying and did her best to look suspicious at the goo.
“And you became suspicious of the goo?”
Derpy nodded happily as she thought that the princess was really good at this
game.
Derpy then looked around and saw the castle mural and flew down into it.
“You crashed in to a wall?”
Derpy shook her head and repeated her mime.
“Oh...you flew to the castle and you saw me? Then you cleaned me? Weird, but
thanks. So what did you use?”
Derpy picked up her bottle of the Derpulator to show the Princess.
“The Derpulatior- Scrubs and cleans to make you ponys sheen- not related to Charlie
or Martin.”

This is my first Fan Fiction. Also, I have let Apple Cider know I am writing a Fan fic about the show so this is basically it. If anyone likes it and wishes to have there O.C included. I will not say no... Also if there is anything wrong with the fic please let me know via IM/PM. Thank you.
“Hey, there good lookin’. My name is App-” Cider said leaning against the door
thinking that Starry had acknowledged him when in fact in the corner of her eye she
saw a grey mare trotting towards her.
“Oh here's my friend.”
Derpy stopped in her tracks as she heard Starry call her: her friend. No pony has not
seen Derpy as a friend of theirs before and to prove it Derpy looked left and right to
find no other pony near her. This made the mare feel so happy and brought a smile that
had not be on her mouth for a very long time.
“Well, you see-”
“Why don’t we go in to the shed for some of my home made fizzy cider?” Apple Cider
said hoping that the sentence ended with “I’m quite parched and was looking for the
nearest tavern.”
“I am rather parched.” Starry said walking towards the door where Apple Cider
seemed to think that she was coming to talk and flirt with him but as he did so Sandy
came in between the two.
“I am dreadfully sorry but...you see...A.C’s cider is rather good for degreasing my pots
and pans in the kitchen...So...it could be rather potent. I have some apple juice if that
will be suitable?”
“Thank you.” Starry said as she drank the juice and relayed her continuing story to the
colts. When she finished her story the sun was starting to set.
“And that the story up to the precise moment I came to you.”
“I can’t believe you had an argument with Princess Twilight. She’s my favorite
Princess...Until now.” Apple Cider said whilst taking Starry’s hoof while gazing in her
eyes.
“Oh...Mr. Cider...”Starry said blushingly.
Sandy and Derpy looked at the two ponies. They looked at each other and gave each a
look which said: “Can you believe these two?”
“Excuse me? Would you like us to help in anyway?” Sandy said as they coming in for a
kiss.
“Yes. That would be most welcome.” Starry said turning away from Cider whilst still
blushing.
“So, Shall we?” Sandy said pointing his hoof towards the forest. Derpy handed the two
colt’s the saddlebags.
“Thanks.” The two Pony’s said in unison and started their way to the forest. The small
group agreed that they should split up. When they entered at two different entrances of
the forest Apple Cider thought they were deep enough in the forest in a secluded spot.
“Why? Why would you do that to me Sandy? Could you not see how HOT she was?
Celestia could of sent her to the moon for being that beautiful. I mean look at her
sister!” Apple Cider cried to abruptly.
A small cough came from a clearing to the side of them where stood the two fillies.
Starry mistakenly gave an girly giggle to the outburst as Apple Cider gave a soft
embarrassing chuckle. The two girls trotted on.
“According to the list- I know how you feel about her A.C, but remember about Fleur
de Li. You are still permanently banned from Canterlot and Canterlot functions!
Anyway, we need: Muffinlork, Mufflix,Snozbum,Sparlax,Eye of Grewte and an leg of
an Everfree Wolf...That’s going to be Tricky.”
“Your telling me.” Then suddenly out of nowhere came a screaming cry.
“AAAaaah! Bad dog! Bad Dog! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Grab as Many legs as you can
Ditsy! Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
“I wonder how the girls are doing. At least twenty feet away the two mares were
running for there lives thanks to a pack of Everfree Wolves. Suddenly there was a thud
and Starry found herself in a pit. Derpy flew down with hundreds of wolf legs and put
them in her Satchel.
“How did you get those?!”
“Don’t ask, Don’t tell.” Derpy mimed.
Starry looked around the pit and saw flowering-muffin like plants all surrounding her.
“Is this what we need?” Derpy nodded.
Starry took half of the plant and put it in her satchel. While Starry did this Derpy
ticked of the muffilork.
“I winder how that handsome- I mean- I wonder how the other two are getting on?”
And to answer: rather poorly. They found themselves at glades of poison joke and
sparlax. The plants looked the same in every way except for the stem of the sparlax
which looked like muffin mix. So without thinking if it was correct the two colts put in
the bags. Once they were full they trot back to the shed happy with their achievement.
Of course they forgot the grewt. Starry and Derpy arrive back at the shed with the rest
of the ingredients including the grewt. This was because earlier Derpy and Starry
found themselves outside an odd looking tree with a door. This “tree house” happened
to be Zecora the Zebra’s house.
“I have seen you looking for ingredients, so i found the rest for you at my expense.”
“Thank you dearly, Zecora the Witch.”
“How did you know of my witchiness? Is it to do with some of your interest?”
“Oh no. I merely read it on your door.” Starry said pointing to the door which spelt:
Zebra’s Magical cures and Training- So stop the complainin’. Derpy thanked Zecora
and trotted out of the forest quickly followed by Starry.
Derpy mixed the mixture in an empty barrel at the shed. She thought it was rather odd
that the mixture was turning into an odd blue color but she thought nothing more of it
and poured the mixture into bottles.
“If its meant to be blue and not white then i’m not judging.” Derpy thought as she
labeled the bottles. Starry and Derpy waved goodbye to Apple Cider and Chef Sandy.
“Hang on, me and Sandy are not doing anything.”
“But what about-”
“Sandy!”Apple Cider whined and put on his best sad face. Sandy grunted and let his
best friend go on with his so called flirting.
“We are at your disposal your royal gorgeousness.” Apple Cider said all the while
wiggling his eyebrows. Starry asked Derpy if she had enough in which she nodded. So
with their new friends Derpy and Starry rode the train once more and galloped to the
kingdom. The sight that Starry saw was incredible. Everyone gasped in awe as the sun
rose past a purple schmooze tower showing shops, taverns and ponys in a runny
cemented purple ooze. The ponys looked like they were going about their day. Some
were talking to each other and with there mouths open it looked like they had very
sticky glue in their mouths.
Suddenly Braburn, a distant cousin of the Apple family came galloping up to Sandy.
”Excuse me but we need a Chef ASAP. Could you follow me to Appleoosa?”
“What’s the problem?”
“Our Chef has caught the flu. Please could you come. We heard you were the best in
Ponyville.”
“Your Highness?”
“You may leave as it is your calling on your flank.”.
“Huh?”
“What your cutie mark is telling you. Listen to it.”
“Well, its saying: serve the dishes.”
“So, go serve.”
“Yes. Ma’am... Will you be O.K Apple Cider?”
As if to answer Cider was hovering above the floor looking at the princess with hearts
in his eyes. He looked like a sixteen year old fillie in crush mode.
“Well, see ya!” and with that Braeburn and Sandy galloped off to Appleoosa as Derpy
gave a bottle of the soapy liquid to the princess and shoved a bottle in Apple Cider’s
mouth which just started to drool.

Chapter 2
After cleaning the Princess for head to hoof and flank, the Princess asked Derpy what
happened to the kingdom as there was no way of knowing its occurrence. Derpy looked
at the princess and shrugged her hooves up as if to say:
“I have no idea.”
“Hmm...Where have you come from... is there a library?”
Derpy nodded with delight and made a train sound and did the soul train movement.
“There’s a train? How do we get to it?”
Derpy rolled out a map of Equestria and in minutes realized the nearest station was
Appaloosa.
“Oh and my name is Starry Night.”
The Princess as she got her cloak to hide her crown- a golden rose weaved
around her head.Within mere minutes Derpy guided the Princess to Appaloosa. They
went to the town station and found that they had fifteen minutes to wait for the train.
“I really have no idea how I became a statue. All I remember was standing in the
courtyard looking at Princess Luna’s stars when an odd looking Ooze came over the
walls I know I should have run but the moon was so - sweet Celestia, I’m a nerd!”
Derpy looks at the Princess with a shocked expression.
Before Derpy could mime that she thinks this is cuckoo to think that she is a
nerd just as the train pulled in to the station.
“All aboard for Ponyville! All aboard for Ponyville! tickets at the ready!”
After boarding the train Princess Starry noticed two Infant ponies sleeping in an
unattended carriage. Derpy recognized the fillies as Mr. and Mrs. Cake’s fillies.
Derpy pointed to the fillies then to Ponyville. Starry understood. As soon as the train
started to moved two things happened at once. The colts washroom was blocked by a
shovel and the foals awoke with a start.
Starry tried to calm them down with singing and story telling. But after coming
up trumps she decided to give Derpy a try. Derpy looked at the screaming fillies and
thought maybe the father should be the one looking after the fillies and foal.
“Hey! Where do you think your going?”
Derpy pointed to the door.
“Oh no.You come back here right now bubble butt!” Suddenly there were light
laughter coming from the fillies. Starry had an idea.
But Derpy walked up to her face to face with her holding a big creamy Apple
Pie. Derpy splattered Starry with the pie. This small act of classic comedy made the
two fillies roar with laughter that they fell asleep instantly.
“ There was no need for that!“ Starry said in a harsh whisper.
Derpy mimed: “Look who’s talking!” Derpy sat down on the other side of the
compartment and ate muffins.
*
“Ponyville! Now arriving at Ponyville.”
Starry awoke from a pleasant nap and found herself looking out at a landscape full of
happy ponys going on about their day. The sun was higher she last looked. She saw
many apple trees filed with bids singing and animals frolicking in the sunlight.
“So, is this Ponyville? ” and to sum up her answer she saw a sign saying:
“Welcome to Ponyville!”
Starry looked at Derpy and saw her getting ready to disembark. Starry tended
to the still sleeping foals. They disembarked of the pony express.
As Derpy got of the train she knocked the shovel in the correct position and
went to the station and looked at a map of the town.
“I thought you lived here.”
“I do. I’m just checking if there is anything new.” she mimed with her hooves almost
knocking over an conductor. Derpy looked at him with an I’m Sorry smile.
“It’s alright miss. Every pony makes mistakes.”
“Excuse me, where is - I mean do you know where these two live? There parents seem
to live here.”
“Yes. They live at Sugar Cube Corner. You can’t miss it its a huge bakery with a
cupcake on top.”
“A cupcake?...”
“Yes. They had it installed after they needed help with he bakery.”
“O.K. Thanks...I guess.” Derpy showed Starry the way to the town on hooves. Starry
could not believe her eyes.
The town houses looked so much more cozy then her kingdom’s town houses.
Within a few minutes they found Sugar Cube Corner. They walked in to find a Pink
mare at the counter.
She jumped and froze in the air for a few seconds. Suddenly she ran to the
kitchen that was conveniently behind her.
“Does this always happen?” Derpy shook her head dismissively. A sea colored pony
with an pink ice cream swirl hair style was being pushed through the door by the pink
mare.
“I apologize Miss. Pinkie seems to be insistent today.”
“Mrs. Cake! Mrs. Cake! Look who she has in the magic bubble thingy.” said Pinkie.
“Pinkie Pie! Don’t be rude!”
“Mamma?” came a voice from the crib. Starry placed the crib on the floor for the foals
to their parent.
“We found them on the train in Appleooza.”
“Alone?” the pink mare formally known as Pinkie cried.
“Where’s my husband?” Mrs. Cake said in a worried tone.
“Here I am, Cupcake. I can explain.” said a yellow colt with an orange quiff.
“We’re waiting.” said Pinkie in a singsong voice.
“Pinkie!” Mr and Mrs Cake said together.
“Sorry. Miss Pinkie. could you escort me to the library, please?”
“It’s next door. Mr. Cake where have you been?”
“If you must know Pinkie, I have been in the Colt’s room of the train. I seemed to have
been trapped in there.”
“Ooo-oooo-ooo! Did it feel like you were stuck in a coffin?”
“Pinkie. No. Just...No.”
“Excuse me... not that this is necessary but does the library have a Librarian?”
“Well, duh. a library always needs a librarian. That’s why Princess Celestia sent
Twilight over. Before she became a Princess. Besides the librarys not open.”
“Why?”
“Twilight is visiting her brother, Prince Shining Armor. She will be back tomorrow.”
“And until then you can stay with us.” Mrs. Cake said while tending to her children.
“That will be very nice thank you. Miss Der-”
“Here we call her Ditsy. Don’t ask us why.” Mr. Cake said forlornly.
“You can look around the town for a while if you wish. Come back around dusk. We
have dinner around then.”
“Oh of course.” Starry agreed somewhat calmly. “Do you have a map of the town?”
“Oh yes. Here.” Mr Cake said giving Starry the map of Ponyville.
“And Ms. Do. Your daughter is at your friends home-”
And like a flash Derpy flew out leaving a trail of muffins behind. So for the rest of the
day Starry sat under a tree in the park watching all the other ponies going about there
day. Starry watched three fillies playing a board game and every time they got an
achievement they kept checking the flanks. They seemed disappointed to see nothing
there.
There were two mares sitting on a bench talking. The aqua one was sitting
oddly while the light yellow with pink and blue hair was just sitting like every pony else.
Derpy came over and introduced Starry to her daughter, Dinky.
“Hello. My name is Dinky. My mommy told me you are a Princess. Is this true?”
“Yes.”
“Wow! Mommy you are the best! Ooo-there's Buttons can I go and play with him?”
Derpy gave her daughter a what-about-our-guest look.
“Oh Sorry, Princess.”
“It’s quite alright by me.”
“Thank you.” and like her mother she galloped towards her friend with excited hooves.
Derpy sat with the princess and mimed about her daughter. Her father was a Unicorn
and founded an Mail Order Company. He took the orders whilst Derpy delivered the
goods.
Sadly he left her for another mare just after Dinky was born.
“If I were you I would have given him an nice swift kick in the flank.”
Derpy nodded and noticed the sun dipping low. Derpy pointed to it and
escorted Starry to the bakery where she had a peaceful sleep. Until she was awoken by
Pinkie’s awakening canon. Starry had a nice oatmeal breakfast.”
“Oatmeal? Are you crazy?”
“No. I’m just hungry.”
“Okey Dokey Lokey.”
After breakfast Pinkie took the Princess to the library.
“Twi-Light!” Pinkie yelled.
“Pinkie! it’s seven thirty in the morning. What is it with you ponys?”a purple dragon
said on a balcony.
“Oh. Hi Spike. Is Twilight home?”
“YOU DON’T KNOW IF SHE IS HOME YET?” Starry yelled with her eyes glowing
and the morning stars flying all over the place. (In Canterlot Princess Luna was
wondering why the comets were arriving early and merely thought nothing of it.)
“Nope.”
“She is in. Hang on, Pinkie.”
The baby dragon said as he was mumbling waking dragons up during a diamond
digging. A few minutes later Twilight came to the door in her dressing gown and a cup
of coffee hovering in the air thanks to her horn.
“Oh. Hey, Twilight.This is Princess Starry Night. She has come here from her
kingdom which is overcome by purple gloop.”
“How did you-”
“Just a hunch.”
“I highly doubt that.”
“Well you do talk in your sleep. Well yell actually...”
“Really?”
“Yep.”
“Anyway, I think I have the book you need. And I believe it is called the Schmooze.
but Sadly, I think there is no cure. I only have this book on it you see: The Myths and
Legends for little fillies and foals. (Now in Rhyme.)
Once Upon A Night,
Upon a Day filed with Fright,
A mountain filled with Ooze,
Filled a Ponyland with Dreaded Schmooze,
All the ponies were stuck,
But only a few an a muck,
They never looked back,
For they did not want to get stuck in a shack,
A Princess stayed with her Ponies awaiting for help,
But Sadly her cousins: The sun and the Moon did not hear the yelp,
So they stayed for ever more,
Waiting for a pony to free them from the purple Sch-more.”
“Well that's it ”
“My kingdom is a Myth. How- HOW-”
“I am certain we can assist you in anyway we can.”
“How? We only just met and you think-”
“Wait a minute! You asked me to help-”
“You’re a Librarian! And it was Pinkie who-”
“Don’t drag my friend in to this! Besides I did not get these wings just because I’m aa
good reader.”
“Well, Technically, You did.”
“Spike!”
“Let him Speak!”
“Well, Twilight read aloud a spell by Star Swirl the Bearded. It was an unfinished
one.”
“Wait was this a spell that swaps every ponys cutie mark and special talent?”
“Yep. She solved it by the Power of Friendship.”
“Friendship.”
“Yes.I’m the Princess of Friendship. I have five friends and all of them had each others
cutie marl. So, I asked them to help each other out. And it worked.”
“And that’s how you became a Princess?”
“Yes.”
Starry laughed “Fantastic! He never thought of that!”
“Who?”
“Star Swirl.”
“Yes. He was my father.”
Pinkie gasped. “OH - MY - GOSH - TWILIGHT! This is so good for you.
So-so-so-what is that word Cheese uses- EPIC!!”
“Wait before we get carried away. How did you get yourself free?”
“Ms. Ditsy. She cleaned me with her cleaning product - speaking of which - Shall we leave
now and start scrubbing?” Starry said to Derpy who happened to trot in after taking
her filly to school. Derpy looked confused.
“We can take Dinky with us if you wish.”
“Today is the beginning of a school break after all” Twilight kindly noted. Derpy
nodded with great enthusiasm. She knew she needed Dinky’s help.
“I apologize for my horrid behavior, Princess Twilight.”
“Apology Accepted.” Twilight said as Derpy quickly flew to her muffin shaped home
and came back with four extra satchels and a list.
“What’s this?”
“Oooo. I think its a Scavenger Hunt. Can I play? Can I play?”
“Pinkie. It’s obvious they need supplies and the supplements for the soap I think you
should go to Sweet Apple Acres. The Everfree Forest is a good place for foraging.”
“Thank you.” Starry said as she bade farewell.
“Do you think we’ll see them again?”
“We’ll see Spike. We’ll See.”
