Previous Chapter

Drama Letter grabbed a nearby megaphone and trotted up to the podium in Town Square.

"ATTENTION FAIR CITIZENS OF PONYVILLE!" She yelled into the microphone. Everypony stopped and stared at her.

"What is it?" Rainbow Dash asked. Drama Letter cleared her throat.

"I would like to share my Cutie Mark story with the public!" She announced eagerly. Someponies groaned, while others clapped.

"Go Drama Letter!" Tennis Match yelled. Drama Letter smiled.

"Very well. It started when I was a filly and I was living in Ponyville. And I killed this other filly named Octavia and sewed her Cutie Mark onto my flank!" Somepony in the back turned green.

"Eeeew!" She yelled.

"That's horrible, Drama Letter!" Yelled Vinyl Scratch. The crowd started advancing on Drama Letter.

"Guys! I'm not dead!" Came a voice in the back. Everypony turned to see Octavia. "Think logically here!"

"Yeah, I was joking!" Drama Letter agreed. "I would never kill a pony. My actual story is pretty short. I was living in Ponyville, when my mother suggested I take singing lessons. And, of course, I did. I had a very good voice, actually. But I didn't enjoy the strict lessons. I quit after a year. At that point, I began to write plays and direct my friends. I'm afraid I was rude about it, unfortunately. One day, I saw my friend Sophisticata sitting on the playground, looking sad. I went over to ask what was wrong. She explained how she wanted to write interesting stories, but she couldn't think of any good ideas. I told her that inspiration could come from anywhere, and she shouldn't be discouraged. Sophisticata was more cheerful after that. Seeing her cheer made me realize I hadn't seen that on the faces of my actors. I realized I was being to harsh, so I began to be nicer when I was giving directions. A couple days later, Sophisticata told me she had written a story, and that I was inspiring. I realized then that it was my destiny to inspire others! At that moment, my Cutie Mark appeared. Thanks, Sophisticata!" She waved at a green unicorn in the crowd, then hopped down from the podium.
