Toola Roola's Remarkable Trip

I awoke on the edge of a town, near the sign. Ponyville. That couldn't be right, this place looked nothing like Ponyville. All the colors were brighter and less dull. Everything around me had a simplistic design that made it look astonishing. I tried to remember how I got here, but all I could remember was Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Cheerilee, and Star Song calling my name as I saw a flash of blinding white light. I decided not to worry about it much, hoping that they were ok. As I walked into the town, I saw a reflection of myself. I was as simple-looking as the town! I saw a tree with a book sign, hoping that it meant Library.

I pushed the door open, and standing there was 5 very familiar ponies and 5 unrecognizable faces. The purple unicorn walked up to me and asked, "Hello, my name is Twilight Sparkle. And you are?" after a brief moment of mentally gratefulness for civilized ponies, I replied, "I'm Toola Roola" Twilight smiled identified each ponies' names. First was a yellow pegasus with pink hair and a cutie mark consisting of 3 butterflies, whom was very quiet and hardly spoke a word to me, "I'm Fluttershy..." Her voice got softer but I was still able to hear her. The name seemed familiar, but I smiled anyways. "That's a very nice name, Fluttershy." She seemed a little surprised I was able to hear her, but Twilight soon turned me towards the next pony. This one had an orange coat and blonde mane, with 3 apples. Atop her mane was a cowgirl hat. "Howdy there, ahm Applejack." I quickly grew found of her and flashed a smile at her before I got turned to pony after pony. The purple-maned dressmaker, and Applejack's filly sister I didn't recognize, but when I saw the last 5 ponies, I gasped audibly before telling them, "I think I know who you five are." They gave puzzled looks, but I pointed at each of them and said their name as I did so, although the two fillies without cutie marks gave me a bit of a hard time. "Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Cheerilee..er..Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo?" Rainbow, being a pegasus of all things, flew right up to me and asked, "How do you know who we are? Are you a spy?" Soon everypony had gathered around me, making me fell a bit light headed. Add that on top of everything else that happened, I soon fainted.

I awoke to arguing in the next room. I recognized Rainbow's tough voice above all the others. "I'm telling you guys, she's a spy! How else could she know our names?" Twilight's voice spoke up, "I'm sure there's a logical explanation for all of this. And honestly Rainbow, why is it that when ponies know more than they're expected to, you jump to the conclusion that their a spy?" "Because it might be true!" I soon saw Fluttershy walk in. I gestured for her to come over to where I was laying on Twilight's couch. She seemed like she wasn't sure what to do, but at last she did, and I asked her, "Why does she think I'm a spy?" Fluttershy went to quiet mode, "Well, um, I must say it is odd that you know their names. Twilight's suggesting we ask Princess Celestia about this." Princess Celestia was a name I never heard before. I struggled to get up. I looked at the books in the library then found one that might explain what's been happening. It was titled "History Before the Princesses". I skimmed through it then stopped. I looked up at Fluttershy and told her a little too loudly, "According to this, I'm from the past"

The arguing in the other room stopped, then Twilight inched out. "Wh- What did you say?" I repeated myself, "According to this book, I'm from the past." Twilight came over to me and took the book. "I thought your name was familiar. I'd skimmed this book before a test. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. I must've seen the familiar names and forgotten about them. But then, why are you here?" I didn't know how to respond, "I- I don't know. All I remember is them shouting my name right before I was blinded by a white light. And then I woke up on the edge of town." As I was talking I was wondering one thing. Where was Star Song? Realizing that I probably would've seen her by now, I let it go. I felt kind of awkward in the room. Looking around, I realized that this was a huge library. I walked over to a shelf and saw a series of interesting looking books. "Who's Daring Do?" Rainbow soon flew out at bullet speed. "Who's Daring Do? She's the best, the coolest, most awesome hero in all of Equestria! And if you say otherwise, well, I'll make you see reason." I looked at the first book, then looked over at Twilight, who was pouring herself over her book. I decided to give it a try. After about an hour, I totally agreed with Rainbow. Daring Do was the best!

Twilight looked up from her book and over at me. She started speaking to me, and so I marked my place in the book and started listening to her. "Maybe I can help you remember where you're from, then everyone's problems will be solved! But until then, you'll need a place to stay." She thought for a minute then I could see the lightbulb go off in her head. "I have an idea. Toola, if you'll come with me into the next room, I think we can make a bargain." And so I followed her and about half an hour later, we struck up a deal. "Thanks again Twilight! You guys won't be disapointed!" And so I galloped out, towards the new and improved Ponyville, Daring Do Book 1 in my saddle bag, eagar to keep my end of the deal, starting with meeting the Gala musician, Octavia.

Carrot Top's Chronicle

Miss Carrot Top! Can I ask you some questions?

She trotted over to me, obviously curious about what I was doing talking to her. She was very excited and said, "Hi! I've seen you around Ponyville, but only today. So, you know my name, what's yours?"

I'm Toola Roola and I have a few questions for you.

Her face lit up like a filly on Hearth's Warming Eve. "Wow Miss Toola! That sounds super! So, what do you want to know?"

Well, I want to know why you're in Ponyville, how you got your cutie mark, and how you react to everything that happens here.

Her grin remained as she recalled memories, "Okay, well, I'm in Ponyville cause I grew up her and never wanted to leave. I got my cutie mark by planting some carrots and finding them grown a few days later when I was just 5. And I always get a shock whenever something weird happens. Weird things started happening her every since Twilight Sparkle and that beast dragon she calls a friend came." As she added the last part, her grin dropped to a sneer.

Miss Carrot, please calm down, it's not her fault And that "beast dragon" has a name. So, how did you react to finding yourself the main attraction in Ponyville once? (Those who don't know what I'm talking about can find the story here)

She soon blushed a sharp red hue. "Oh, you know about that, do you? Well, I didn't like being a main character! It meant everpony's eyes were on me and only me, and that if I made one little mistake, they'd all point it out! And I had to worry about not breaking the fourth wall like certain pink party pony named Pinkie. And also, there was embarrassing stuff that I wish not to go into at this moment."

Alrighty, well, thank you Miss Carrot. I'll make sure to publish this as soon as possible so that everpony in Ponyville knows your story. Oh, and I also hope that thing with Rarity goes well for you!

That left her questioning me as I trotted away, "What thing with Rarity? What are you talking about?!"

Octavia's Orderly Recall

Miss Octavia! Wonderful preformance, may I have a word?

She noticed me, and decided to come down the stairs to talk to me. "Hello Miss..." She paused, not knowing my name.

Oh, sorry, my name's Toola Roola.

"Miss Toola, how may I be of assistance to you?" She eyed me waringly, as if expecting a disguise to fall right off.

Well, I have some questions for you, if you'd be willing to answer.

She smiled graciously, as if this was the first time she heard the offer, "Well, I suppose since the orchestra's done for tonight. What do you want to know?"

Well, I want to know, who is Octavia? And how did she get her cutie mark?

She seemed surprised at the questions but answered them, "Well, I was growing up in Canterlot when I got my cutie mark. For our Fillygarden musical, I was asked to be in the band. At first I declined, saying that I prefered acting to playing, but when they persisted, I decided to give it a go. The night of the preformance, I outshined the whole band, and at the end, I saw this little beauty" She gestures to her cutie mark, "I moved her to Ponyville not long after the Gala incident" She seemed to shiver unwillingly.

Ah, yes, I recall that. So, how do you feel, living in Ponyville now with all the craziest things happening?

She fidgeted a bit before replying, "Well, it took a while to adjust. Especially since I moved here during the Cutie Pox outbreak. After that, I was able to look out the window and not panic about what I saw. Although asertive Fluttershy gave me quite a shock. But, I'd say I feel fine about living in Ponyville."

It also come to my attention that you bear a striking resemblance to Pinkie Pie's sister from her youth. Is it true that you're her sister?

She stuttered for a moment, "I, I, yes. It's true, though Mom and Dad don't want her to know. They're just glad I went into something that requires actual skill. I'm actually really surprised it took anypony this long to figure it out, I mean if you look at the pictures from back then, and at me now, it's kinda obvious. So, now you know my real name is Inkie Cian Pie. Oh, and just so that you don't try and go hunting for her, Blinkie is somewhere in Las Pegasus, last I heard."

Thank you for your story, Miss Octavia, it really was an eyeopene.r

"And thank you, Miss Toola Roola for caring about what I had to say. And remember, don't tell Pinkie."

And I left on that happy note.

Derpy Hooves' Description

I saw her and the closer I got to the grey-coated, yellow-maned, cross-eyed pegasus, I was regretting it more and more. But I suppose, it's better to get it out of the way now instead of later.

Hello, Miss Derpy? May I speak to you for a moment please?

She looked down to see who was calling her name. "Oh, sure. I was just napping on a cloud. So, who're you?"

My name is Toola Roola, but you can call me Toola.

"Cool, so Toola, what you wanted to talk to me about?" Her face and eyes showed her puzzlement as to why I was bothering to speak to her at all.

Well, I'd like to ask you how you came to Ponyville and how you got your cutie mark.

"I came to Ponyville cause I fell down during Flight School in Cloudsdale and landed on my head. So now, I always have trouble knowing which way's up and down, which is why my eyes are crossed. And I got my cutie mark because after I fell down, a little filly came over to me and blew bubbles in my face, and the helped me get back up after the big fall." She smiled contently as I thought about it.

Well, another question I have is this. How do you react to all the odd string of events that happens in Ponyville?

She soon looked around surprisedly, "Weird stuff happens here? Weird, I never knew. I just know about the Nightmare Moon thing, then Pinkie going crazy, then Discord, then the big disaster Twilight predicted that never actually happened. Other than that stuff, everything's normal around here."

I..suppose you could say that. One more question, is Dinky Doo really your daughter?

She seemed startled by the question. "Well, of course. Unfortunately, Doctor Whooves told me not to tell anyone in this universe. I don't think King Solaris would like it anyway. Well, I gotta go pick Dinky up from school. Bye Miss Toola, good luck with that deal!"

It was my turn to start wondering questions. But first, time to do a little research on this so-called King Solaris, and what she meant by 'this universe.'
