Once upon a time... in Manehattan
All looked bright with the sun in the sky and ponies looking in the box in the floor, full of babies. Down in a paper was written baby ponies for adoption. What nopony noticed was that inside the box was a baby purple dragon. Where did he came from? Maybe it was in the box for mistake. Bad lucky for him is that everypony who pick a baby, always run in fear away from him, with their new baby pony. In his mind, he always thought he was a little different.
The minutes became hours, and nopony adopted the baby dragon. One night, it was raining like an inundation, and thanks to that, the poor baby dragon got separated from his pony partners, and got lost in the deepest places of Manehattan's streets. Fortunately for him, he was a toddler already, so he could move but not to the box again. Thanks for the dark of the night, the little purple dragon got lost. Scared, he found a trash where he can hide and spent the rest of the night there but still, he was lonely. All he wanted was a family, a pony who loved him, who take care of him. Soon, he realized that he was the only dragon in that big city.
All I want is a home and a family. said in his head.
He felt a warm light in his eyes, so fluttering, he opened them and realized it was already morning. He got up and clean himself up too, because he slept last night in that trash. The first thing he thought was to find a way to get some food, since he was starving.
After hours for looking, he decided to explore a little bit the city. He could see other ponies looking at him with terrified expressions or just screaming. Sometimes he got to get out of there before the police caught him. It wasn't too long for him to realized that ponies didn't accepted him.
Later, he heard a donkey cheering "Hot dogs! Hot dogs!". That was the word he was waiting to hear! He smell in the air the delicious taste of those hot dogs. Dragons weren't fan of them, but when you are starving, it's better that nothing.
He slowly approached to the donkey and tried to get a hot dog, but when the pony looked at him, he yelled!
"Hey, what do you think you're doing?!"
The little dragon jumped back and tried to explain.
"I...I was just... taking a hot dog."
"Listen little dragon, I don't really care if you're a pony or not, but if you want a hot dog, you must pay 5 bits!" screamed the donkey.
"But... but... I don't have any bits."
"Then you will not have ANY HOT DOGS!!!"
But the little dragon keep trying get some food, even if he was frightened.
"Please sir..."
"It's sir Cranky to you!"
"Sir Cranky... please...I'm very hungry and... and... I don't know where to go"
"Not my problem! Just get 5 bits and then you can eat." said Cranky while he was turning around. "Life is not easy in Manehattan! Now leave before I called the police... or even animal control!!!"
The little dragon was so scared to get caught, that he run away from there. When he got hide in one trash, near that mean stallion, he just said in his head. "Now what i'm going to do? I don't know how to live on the streets. How i'm going to survive.?
He stay there waiting, and thinking how to get those hot dogs, because there was no way he was going to work to win some bits. He was just a kid!
Not far from there, there was a blue pegasus walking in the streets. She would fly, but she was looking for her dinner. While she was walking, she was dancing a little bit.
Her name was Rainbow Dash; a cool and awesome pegasus, who loved to fly ad always get things her way. She is known in the city as the awesomeness pegasus in Manehattan, but also as a wanted thief for the police. She was pal of almost all ponies in Manehattan, since she always help others when they are in danger but also she got to find a way to survive, and since she was a stray, steal was her only solution. But she never hurt anybody.
"I'm awesome, take caution, watch out for me, I'm..." she was singing until she hear the old Cranky's screamed.
"I told you! No bits, no hot dogs!"
She turned to her right and saw how a little dragon was running away behind some trashes of dump.
"Well, what have we here?" she said with a smirk smile. "It appears that old Grumpy Cranky has company. It's my perfect chance to make a dragon-trouble."
Saying that, she fly to the dragon's hiding place and looked at him.
"You just got the wrong pony; I mean; donkey to get food little buddy."
The little dragon jumped of surprise, since she was the first pony who was talking to him, but he decided to be brave and react like everypony thought about him.
Getting in his four claws he hissed."Get... get away from me!"
Rainbow Dash put her hooves in the air. "Wow! Relax squirt! I'm not gonna hurt you! I don't steal food or anything from little ones like you. I'm just here for lunch, you know a meal." She landed next to the little dragon. "What's your name?"
"Um... I don't know. I don't have one." said the little dragon turning his head away.
"Oh that's sad. Well, I couldn't help noticing that you got a problem with the worst donkey in Manehattan. Son I'm here to help you." said Rainbow Dash.
"And why would you help me?" asked the little dragon.
"Because I want those hot dogs even more than you. I'm a stray too." said Rainbow Dash, putting his wing around the little dragon. "Besides, you're new in this kind of things. I've been living and surviving in these streets for MANY years. I'm an expert in this stuff. So what do you say?"
The little dragon looked at her with doubting but then his stomach growled again. Not thinking twice, he shook his claw with the pegasus' hoof smiling.
"Deal!"
She smiled, and said in her head: More easy than stealing. "Great. Now here is what we are going to do"

I'm back!!!!
I'm SO SO SO SO SO SORRY for not being around lately. I swear I'm working in Discord's real past (soon you will see a new chapter) but I couldn't wait to write this story. I just love it, and hope you too. Mamma mia is On Hiatus because there are a few things I want to correct. Maybe I'll change Chesse Sandwich with Fancy Pants: what do you think?
If there any mistakes, please tell me. I really want to write English better.
More chapters soon, I hope.

FanMLP out... this time for short time.
Why should Rainbow Dash worry?
"Okay, kid. Remember the plan?" asked Rainbow Dash.
The little dragon, ready in his position, answered nervous.
"Um... yeah, sort of."
"Enough for me." said Rainbow Dash. "Now, run to Grumpy Cranky and distract him while I do the rest."
The little dragon said with a gulp, "O-okay"
The little dragon approached to the donkey and then when he was near to him, he made a little roar, but enough to scare Cranky. After the roar, the donkey turned back furious.
"YOU!!! Why you little freak!!! Get back here!" screamed Cranky chasing the little dragon doing circles around his hot-dog shop.
Thanks to that, Rainbow Dash get the chance to get 6 hot-dogs, but just when she was about to fly, Cranky saw her.
"YOU TOO!?!?!" screamed Cranky pointing to Rainbow Dash. "I'm calling the police!!
"Don't even bother Old Grumpy Cranky! I was already on my way! See ya later!" said Rainbow Dash taking the little dragon on her back.
"RAINBOW DASH!!!" screamed Cranky while the pegasus was flying away.
After a few minutes, Rainbow Dash landed in a construction-in-progress area, far away from Cranky. She was excited for the food, but the little dragon was tired and a little dizzy.
"OH YEAH!!! Here they are! Hot-Dogs!" screamed excited Rainbow Dash.
"Uh... What... just...happened!" asked the little dragon dizzy."Did we get the food?"
"You said it!"
"Great! So, when are we gonna it?" asked the little dragon.
Rainbow Dash froze. She totally forgot about the kid. She was always loyal to her word but her gang was first. She couldn't share the hot-dogs with the kid, it wasn't enough.
She'll just have to break her promise.
"Um.. we?" asked Rainbow innocent.
"Yeah, I'm starving!"
"Oh boy!" said Rainbow in her mind. "Listen kid, hate to break your bubble, but the teamwork it's now the solo-work."
Rainbow started to get away from the dragon but he was following her.
"What do you mean?" asked confused the little dragon.
"What I mean is... you're on your own now." with this, Rainbow flied away from him.
Oh no she didn't!said the little dragon. "Wait! You're NOT being fair!"
Rainbow Dash, already in the sky, said. "The word fair doesn't exist in Manehattan kiddo. Consider this a lesson from "How to survive in the big city school" Check you later" Saying that, she flied away form the dragon.
"Hey wait! I helped you get those!" screamed the little dragon. "The other half is mine!"
The little dragon started to follow the pegasus in the ground while she was in the sky. He did a big jump in a tree and looked at her, surprised.
This kid is good, but I'm better. "You want 'em? Come a get 'em!" said Rainbow.
Flying again, the pegasus get away from the little dragon but he still follow her. "But I'm warning ya, kid!"
One minute, I'm in central park.
Then I'm down on Unicorn street.
From the brow'y to saint marks
There is a very cool beat.
Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo,whoo
I'm very wise
I can improvise
Whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo
I'm very smart
I've got Manehattan's heart.
Rainbow Dash used a hose to clean up herself, but then she used it to wet the little dragon.
Why should I worry?
Why should I care?
Evrythin' comes with a price
'Cause I know nothing's fair.
The pegasus walk between some fans in the floor to dry, but for the dragon, for being little, it was like a twister.
Why should I worry?
Why should I care?
I've never made a crime
But I know nothing's fair.
When Rainbow Dash stop flying, and landed in the ground, she hide in a sun-glasses shop, with the little dragon following her.
There's rhythm in this city
But once you get it down
Then you can own the castle
And wear your own crown!
When the little dragon was near her, she moved quickly and made the dragon fall, while a pair of sun-glasses landed on her eyes.
Why should I worry? Tell me!
Why should I care?
Evrythin's comes with a price
'Cause I know nothing's fair.
Flying she sat in a piano, which was carried by worker ponies, and started to play it with her tail.
Why should I worry?
Why should I care?
I've never made a crime
But I know nothing's fair.
Near there, two colts were watching Rainbow Dash in awe and sang.
There are no deals
There are no rules
Rainbow Dash:
I know all 'bout this city
Can I say the same of you?
The little dragon try to climb to the piano, but when he jumped, Rainbow moved and it made the dragon to fall in a box of fruits.
Why should I worry?
Why should I care?
Evrythin' comes with a price
'Cause I know nothing's fair.
Rainbow Dash landed in a horse-taxi, and get away, but without knowing it, the little dragon was behind her, again.
Whoo, whoo, whoo,whoo, whoo. (X4)
After a few minutes, Rainbow scared the stallion and then walked through the streets, with the little dragon following.
