Chapter 3: what is friendship?

So, bad part about my journey, Celestia was gone. The good thing was though, that I didn't get to the castle. I was at the train station when a blue alicorn flew towards me.

"Ah, Fireheart, It is good to see thou before thy goes to thy's train." My jaw almost dropped.

"W-wait, Luna? How a-are you here?" I paused. I facehoofed as Luna chuckled. "Ok, so what am I supposed to do?" Luna shrugged.

"Thou can be here for the time being." I shook my head. I start feeling a headache.

"Alright, I'll stay here, tell me when Celestia is back, so that I can be done with all this?" I looked at Luna, she chuckled again. She nodded and flew off to whoever knows where. "Ok, change of plans... oh boy." I walked back in to Ponyville. What am I gonna do? Well, first things first, better get a house to stay, or rent a place. I walked around, seeing if I could find a place to rent. I saw that I could not rent a place, and my ears drooped. Then, A white, purple maned unicorn walked up.

"Excuse me dear, what is the matter?" I looked up.

"Nothing miss, carry o-"

"Oh don't start dear, I know an upset pony when I see one, now what is the matter?" I had a questioned look but I answered.

"See, I have to stay here for a few weeks. Now, I'm not saying this place is bad, but I have to do something important." I wasn't sure if the unicorn was a good pony or not, so I didn't say anything too detailed.

"So, what is the problem?"

"I don't have a place to stay." I said this, looking down. I was a little bit ashamed, but the unicorn smiled.

"Well why didn't you say so? I know a um, quaint house where you can stay, no pony has lived there in years. " I smiled. Then I frowned.

"What's the catch?" I asked, looking at her suspiciously.

"None at all dear." She smiled. I sighed.

"Ok, so what do I have to sign?" I asked.

"Oh, well you have to go to town hall, talk to Mayor Mare to get this house." I smiled, some good luck for me for once.

"Thank you miss, um..."

"My name's Rarity dear, and no problem at all!" I smiled a little bit bigger and walked off

After a lot of paperwork, I finally got to my for-now-until-I-complete-my-mission-house. For short, I'll call it my house. I beamed at the place. There were creaks, cracks, and old stuff. I sort of like it. I sighed, thinking to myself, I have to get some stuff here, this place looks like a haunted house . I looked around. There was an old, almost stuffed couch, the floor had a couple of holes, and that was it. I did not like this place at all. My stomach growled. But first, I need lunch. I walked out, and the light blinded me. My eyes got used to it and I walked to the weird, ginger-bread house. I definitely like to see the builders for this building to know what the hell were they thinking when they made this building. When I entered this weird place, I saw a blur of pink, and a pink pony was instantly at the counter.

"Heya Fireheart!!! I had an AMAZING day..."

"Ok Pinkie, tha-"

"...and then she was like, WOOSH WOOSH WOOSH..."

"Ok, can I-"

"OH OH, then she was like, oatmeal, are you cra-" I had no freaking clue on what the hell she's talking about, but I had clamped my hoof against her mouth. I am smiling, because whatever she was talking about was so random.

"Can I have something to eat please?" I asked, my stomache growled on cue.

"OH! I KNOW THE THING YOU'LL LOVE!!!" I have a bad feeling about this. Pinkie was a blur, she ran to the kitchen, made something, then came back, holding a single layered cake.

"N-no thanks I don't like-"

"This is a marzipan marmalade madness!!! Or MMM for short!"

"That sounds good, but I-"

"OH, and the ingredients are-"

"PINKIE!!!!!" I yelled loudly. I was heaving a little, while smoke came out of my snout. Pinkie had jumped back, surprised.

"I-I'm sorry Firey, I didn't mea-" I put my hoof in her mouth again.

"Pinkie, it's OK, I just... Um, I don't like cake, thanks though, but I do want to have a temporary job. Do you know anyone who needs some help?" I smiled weakly as Pinkie's smile went back up, seeing that she didn't do anything bad.

"Oh I know! That weather factory in Cloudsdale needs help!"

"Um, Cloudsdale right right, um, where is it?" She points up, I look out the window. I gasped, there was a huge-flank cloud-city thing!!! HOW THE BUCK DO THESE ARCHITECTS DO THESE THINGS!!!

"Ooooooookaaaaaay, what do they need help on?"

"Well, they said that Dashie had an accident with the machine and that she has to clear all the clouds in Cloudsdale!"

"Wait, Dashie? Who- oh, you mean Rainbow Dash?"

"Yepperrooni!"

After what seemed like five minutes, Rainbow dash and I were at the entrance to Cloudsdale.

"So Fireheart, ready for a tour? ?" She asked smiling.

"Um, I guess so, I am not quite sure about this though..." I trailed off, worried about the other pegasi staring at me. I feel my heart sink when I heard some murmuring by said pegasi.

"Don't worry Fire, I'm sure you'll fit right in." Said the cyan pegasis. I raised an eyebrow.

"Not sure if you've noticed, but I have scales, do you think I'll fit in by basically being a freak to them?"

"With that attitude you're not." She smiled. "Just act casual, OK?" I nodded. We walked around, taking care of some clouds along the way. There were still a few pegasi staring at me.

"Hey you, freak, why don't you get outta here!" A pony yelled, throwing something at me. I was hit in the head with a glass bottle, where do ponies find these things?

"I'm just helping this mare out dude." I said surprisingly calmly. I hated that guy instantly.

"Well I bet you paid her to be around you!" I sighed and kept helping Dash. A few ponies were snickering, and the same stallion walked up. "HEY DID YOU HEAR ME!?" This guy's getting on my nerves.

"Leave him alone dude, he hasn't do-" Rainbow was interrupted.

"I'm just having a little fun, aint that right boys?" He nudged the others who were still snickering.

"Yeah, fun to piss me off..." I muttered, unfortunately, the guy heard me and looked at me chuckling.

"Heheh, what? Does the little monster have a bad day? Is he gonna cry?" I puffed smoke from my nose and my ears were flickering.

"The buck did you call me?" I stood up, fire in my eyes.

"I called you an ugly, scaley, monster. What ya gonna do about it fat-flank?" I growled, I was getting real pissed off now.

"Say that again, I didn't hear you." He smiled like a devil and grabbed my mane and pulled me close.

"You are a fat-flank, ugly scaley monster." He let me go and I chuckled.

"It's a shame you know, cheating on your wife." His smile dissapeared.

"What the buck do you mean." Voices were in my head, telling me his dark secrets. Demons like me can find out about stuff like this, and now I got him. His name's Goldflash, his nickname's Gold, the rest is hard to explain, but I am gonna have fun.

"You're cheating on your wife Gold, her name's Pearl? Such a nice name for a mare like her. You're also cheating on a mare named Velvet. She's a nice mare too, but you can't choose can you?" I had strucken a huge, bucking, nerve. He grabs me by the neck and holds me in the air.

"How did you know that you little buck?" He shook me, and I glared.

"Put me down, let me go, don't bother me again or else I'll tell more infront of your little friends." I didn't have a smile, I was actually ashamed of myself. He gently put me down and left while the others were staring at me. I started backing away. I closed my eyes and ran. I can't believed what I had just done. I was starting to cry. I tripped, I can't feel my wings. I screamed as I fell to the ground below me.
