Welcome Party

It was about noon in Ponyville when a light gray unicorn walks into town. He is medium height but built much like Bic Macintosh. His mane is dark red, but the tips are black like his hooves, his horn is long but it is bent slightly upward. His cutie mark is that of a scientist, three test tube, each filled with a liquid. All he carries with him is his saddlebag, from within to bag we hear a clinking of glass. He continues walking into town, now passing Sugarcube Corner. As he passes he catches the eyes of a pink mare with cotton candy like mane and tail. At the sight of the unknown colt she hopes up and down with excitement, she quickly hops towards the new pony. As the unicorn walks he doesn't see the pink pony hop next to him and begin to speak,

"Hey, you seem new. and i would now because i know every pony in Ponyville!" this startled the unicorn, he steps back and examines to hopping pink mare.

"Well, you seem quiet exited about seeing me," The unicorn said in a intellectual tone, as he was from Canterlot and all, "You don't even know who i am, speaking of which who are you?"

"My name is Pinkamena Diane Pie, but all my friends call me Pinkie Pie," Says Pinkie with a smile," So you can call me Pinkie cause we are friends!"

"Quite the contrary we are not friends," the Unicorn said while walking away," Well not yet at least, i must head to the mayors office i need a house here in Ponyville."

"Oki Doki Loki," Pinkie Exclaimed as she walked back to the Sugarcube Corner thinking on the party she needs to throw for the mystery colt, "Wait, i don't even know his name!" Pinkie Quickly turns an runs after the unicorn. The unicorn walks to the town hall only to find Pinkie Pie waiting form him.

"I guess you very persistent," said the unicorn.

"I forgot to ask you your name," Pinkie Pie said while hopping towards him. He held out his hoof to keep Pinkie leg length away.

"Fine, Fine, My name is Scientific Method, i was a scientist in Canterlot, but the noise didn't help my work so i had to leave. That's why I'm here in Ponyville, but even here is not that quite," Scientific Method said while eying Pinkie," Why do you want to know anyway?"

"Its because i need a name to put on the invitations, nopony is gonna go to a pony with no name's party," Pinkie explained.

"A party, but why," Scientific Method said with a huff," You barely know me!"

"Oh silly, i throw every new pony a party here in Ponyville," Pinkie exclaimed, " Heck my middle name is Party!"

"I thought it was Diana," Scientific Method asked.

"Well that two," Pinkie said with a chuckle which then turned into a roaring laugh. During this Scientific Method slowly walked around into the mayors office.

"I would like to see the mayor," says Scientific to the desk clerk.

"Right this way sir," the Desk Clerk replies while guiding the colt to the mayors office. The mare knocks on the door to the mayor office.

"What is it, I'm busy," yells Mayor Mare, the clerk creaks the door open a bit.

"There is a colt here to see you," Says the clerk.

"Well let him in," Mayor Mare yells again. The clerk open the door the rest of the way. she move out of the way to let Scientific in, Then the clerk closes the door.

"Hello miss, I'm here for a deed to a house here in ponyville," the colt states clearly and frankly.

"I like you colt, very straight forward, but i can't help you," Mayor Mare tells Scientific Method.

"I have money, name your price," Scientific tells the mare, "Any price!" It took several hours and a very large sum of bits to get the mayor to allow him to buy a home. Scientific took the deed and put it in his saddlebag and walked out of the office, it was now dark in Ponyville. Scientific used his magic to light up his way to his new home. He was very tired from negotiating with the mayor and his meeting with Pinkie Pie, he got to the door of his home and unlocked the door with his magic and walked in. He barely got three feet in when all the lights flash on and six ponies plus a dragon yell 'SURPRISE!', with all the stimulation and his long day, Scientific Method fainted all the ponies gasped, but Pinkie just laughs.

What Books Can't Teach You

Scientific Method awoke to be face to face with Fluttershy, her face full of concern. After he fainted Fluttershy rush to his side to make sure he was OK, which he was. Scientific slowly stood up with the help of Fluttershy, and he looked around.

"Who are you people and why or how are you in my house," Scientific Method asked harshly

"Well its you welcome party, silly," Pinkie says hoping to him, " Remember i told you there would be one before you went to see the mayor."

"Oh yeah I remember," Scientific said while thinking back, " But who are you people?"

"I'm Rainbow Dash, the Fastest flier in all of Equestria," Rainbow said with flair.

"Well, howdy I'm Applejack," Applejack said, " I run Sweet Apple Acres with my family, i reckon you will be meeting them soon."

"Um... Hi... I'm Fluttershy... i take care of animals who need... um... help, " Fluttershy said quietly almost a whisper by the end.

"Hey, I'm Spike," Spike blurted out, " I'm a baby dragon and i help Twilight as her assistant." Up next is Twilight Sparkle, but all she does when she speaks is stutter and giggle. Her face gets redder and redder until she is so embarrassed that she runs home to the library.

"Whats with her," Scientific Method asks, " Is it something i did?"

"I don't think so sugercube," Applejack said with a sigh, "Come on girls lets check on her." With that the ponies and spike all left Scientific Method's home and went to check on Twilight. After they were all gone he closed the door locked it, he walked to his bedroom, but grabbed a piece of cake on the way, ate it, then snuggled into his bed and went off to sleep. Just as he enters dream land he is stopped by somepony or something gnawing on his foreleg, it didn't hurt because it had no teeth. he lifted his foreleg and lit up his horn to find a alligator with no teeth chewing on him. He screams and jumps up out of bed, just then Pinkie walks in and grabbed her pet alligator.

"No, bad gummy," Pinkie said, " Sorry Sci." Pinkie left and Scientific laid back down and started to sleep, but he remembered he locked his door, how did Pinkie get in here thought, but the burden of the day got to him and he fell asleep like that.

******

The gang left Scientific Method's house and went after Twilight, they decided that she probably went to the library. They arrived at the library, but they hesitated to knock on the door. They all looked at each other like they were trying to figure out who should do it. Finally Rainbow Dash spoke up,

"I'll do it ya scaredy ponies, eh.. but I'm not the one to talking to her.."

"Oh, i can do that," Fluttershy spoke up, "I'm good at talking to things that aren't feeling well." So Rainbow Dash knocked on the door, to find it just push open. Rainbow Dash pushed the door open all the way to be greeted by soft sobbing coming from the bed room. She quickly flew behind Fluttershy and pushed her into the tree. The rest of them followed, but stayed in the main room. Fluttershy move up the stairs quietly.

"Twilight... um can i come in," Fluttershy asked while knocking, this was answered by a mumble, "Ok." Fluttershy opened the door and walked into the room, after a minute or so later the sobs stopped and Fluttershy and Twilight walked down to meet the other ponies.

"Whats wrong sugercube," Applejack asked.

"Yes, darling what is it that has you riled up," Rarity said while putting a hoof around Twilight.

"Hey, that is just what i asked Rarity," Applejack exclaimed. Rarity just stuck her tongue out at Applejack. They both growled at each other,

"GIRLS!" Fluttershy yelled with a very angry look on her face, " We have to help Twilight, now stop fighting!" Everyone was shocked to see Fluttershy so upset, and they all listened.

"Did that unicorn do anything to you," Rainbow Dash growled, "Cause if he did I'll beat his Canterlot as-"

"No, Rainbow Dash, he didn't... or well not on purpose," Twilight said softly, "It's just that i think I'm in love and i didn't know how to react so i broke down, my books never explains that sort of thing very well."

"Well Darling, books can't teach you everything," Rarity said while hugging her friend, " I guess we all over reacted, now lets get some rest we can talk about this tomorrow." all the ponies left the Library, Pinkie drops off Spike in his bed then leaves. Twilight just sits on her bed thinking about him....

Madness

Scientific Method awoke at 6 am even though he did go sleep late. He slowly gets out of bed and walks around his new house, he walks through the kitchen, the living room, the bed room. he walks past a door, he stops and looks back,

"Where on Equestria could this door go," He thought to him self, "Could it be a basement?" After the words left his mouth a creepy, evil smile crept across his face. In a deeper voice, almost like another pony, he says,"Perfect." he starts to laugh, but then is cut short by knocking on the door, "How is it?" he asks in a normal voice.

"Um... its me... Twilight..." Twilight said hesitant, she goes to turn and run from the door, but Scientific opened it before she could flee.

"Hi, what brings you here, " Scientific said now realizing that he feels something inside him... no he can't be in love with this beautiful mare.. oh Celestia he was. this realization made him start to blush, but then quickly hides it from Twilight.

"I just wanted to come by and say sorry for running of last night," Twilight said, "It was so rude of me."

"Its ok, " Scientific said, " Would you like to get some breakfast?"

"OH, i would love to," Twilight exclaimed, this make Scientific's heart jumped, "but i have to meet my friends sorry." Scientific's heart didn't land after its jump it just fell into the dark recesses of his chest.

"oh... ok," Scientific said, " well maybe some other time, then"

"Yes, oh i have to go bye," Twilight said while trotting away. Oh she even trots beautifully, Scientific thinks in his head, but walks back to the basement. He walks to the basement door and descends into the darkness, he lights up the spacious room with his horn. He looks for a lamp and finds one, he turns it on and it ignites as do the other lamps fully illuminating the basement. Oh its so big, he thought to him self, but a deeper more sinister voice arose in his mind.

"Perfect for out test," the voice said, but where is it coming from? The only pony in the room is Scientific Method, "So spacious and dark, no pony will know about it or escape." The voice was coming from Scientific Method, but he was darker in coat and his red pupils are as small is pin pricks, an evil smile stuck on his face. He begins to laugh, louder and louder, until his coat turns lighter, his eyes turn back to normal, and the smile leaves his lips. " I must order my laboratory supplies," He says in his normal voice. He quickly runs up stairs and grabs a piece of paper and a quill, and scrawls a note to his old friend in Canterlot, who owes him a favor. the note asks this pony to send his laboratory equipment from his old house in Canterlot to his new one in Ponyville. He finishes the letter and then bolts outside.

"Hey you, the gray pegasus with a bubble cutie mark," He yelled, this made Derpy turn her head and fly to the unicorn, "Are you the messenger pegasus?"

"I sure am," Derpy said enthusiastically, " Where do you need this letter to?"

"The address is on the letter," Scientific said, " Just get it there ok?"

"Yes, siry," Derpy said just before she flies off, but hits a lamp post on the way up, "Don't worry I'm ok!" Oh god what have i done, Scientific says in his mind, i gave a very important letter to an incompetent horse. Don't worry, the Deeper Voice said, she will get it there and our old Experiments can commence! Scientific starts to laugh but stops him self since he is in public. He walks quietly to his home and eats his breakfast, now thinking of the beautiful Twilight Sparkle.

"She would be a good test subject," The Deeper Voice said, but this time out load.

"No! not her," Scientific yelled out, "You can not touch her!"

"All right, all right," The Deeper Voice said, "she is all yours, there are plenty of other ponies in Ponyville." The laughing starts, then become louder and louder until it crescendos and Scientific Method passes out on his kitchen floor blood trickling from his nose.

What Friends Are For

Ponyville Cafe

"Where the hell is Twilight," Rainbow Dash asks Applejack.

"I have no clue, she did say she was coming right Rarity," Applejack asking Rarity

"Of course darling, I'm sure of it," Rarity says while Twilight is running to the cafe, "Look there she is."

"Your late Twilight, where were you," Rainbow asks. Twilight sits down between Applejack and Rarity.

"I went to Scientific's house to apologize for running out last night." Twilight says with a slight smile thinking of him.

"What!? He doesn't deserve you apology, "Rarity yells, "Don't go to him, make him come to you. If he really loves you back he'll come running.

"Really?" Twilight says to Rarity, "I hope he comes soon, i don't think i can wait any longer." The six sat and ate their breakfast.

"Hey Twilight we should go to the spa, what do you think," Rarity asks Twilight.

"Sure Rarity, lets go," Twilight answers back. Twilight gets up and starts to walk away, Rarity follow, but the she turns around and Twilight doesn't realize.

"Girls, go to this colts house and tell him to go out with Twilight, make him realize she is the one," Rarity tells the other mares. the rest nod their heads and walk to Scientific's house. Rarity turns and catches up with Twilight. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack all walk to Scientific's house. They arrive and knock on the door, no answer. They knock again, still no answer. Rainbow Dash goes to the door and kicks it open.

"You do know it was unlocked right," Applejack asks Rainbow Dash. Rainbow looks at the door,

"I knew that, this was just cooler." Rainbow replies.

Scientific wakes on his kitchen floor to a loud crash. He jumps up and runs to the front door to find Rainbow Dash floating the his doorway and his door hanging by one hinge.

"WHAT THE HELL!" He yells, " I just bought this house!" his face plastered with anger, but Fluttershy notices the blood stain on his muzzle.

"What happened, " Fluttershy asks, "there is blood coming from his nose."

"Well i don't know," He replies perplexed, "Hey don't change the subject you just kicked down my door!" Fluttershy walks to him and pushes him into the kitchen where she proceeds to clean the blood from his snout. As Fluttershy cleans his muzzle he gives her a smile and blushes a bit. What is this felling, its just like the one i get when Twilight is around, but she isn't here, he thinks to himself.

"Hey! I see you smiling at Fluttershy, cut it out where here to make sure you fall in love with Twilight, " Rainbow dash blurts out.

"Wait Twilight loves me back," Scientific Method says, " Oh Celestia she love me too!"

"Way to blow it Rainbow Dash," Applejack says hitting Rainbow, "At least he loves her back, out job is done here, lets go." Applejack, Rainbow, and Pinkie all start to walk out of Scientific's house.

"Oh so great, I have to throw a party for Twilight and Scientific for getting together," Pinkie says while hoping behind the others. Scientific runs from his house and catches up with the mares, Fluttershy quickly running behind him.

"Where is Twilight, I have to tell her I love her back," Scientific asks Applejack.

"I'm not suer nwo is a good ti-" Applejack tries to reply to Scientific.

"She is at the spa with Rarity," Rainbow Dash tells him.

"Dag nabbit Rainbow, I wanted to give Twi a little time," Applejack yells at Rainbow, " and now look he knows, wait where is he?"

"Looks like hes half way there to me," Pinkie says while looking through here periscope. While Applejack was yelling at Rainbow Scientific started to run to the spa, luckily for him he passed it on his was into town so he knows where it is.

"Yes, she love me back," Scientific Method says to himself, "Now i can confess and we can be together!"

"I know so great," The Inner voice says, "With her in love with you i can lure her into the lab and she won't know a thing since she will be blinded by love." It laughs. Scientific stops mid run and confronts the inner voice,

"You won't hurt her," Scientific yells out loud, luckily not grabbing the attention of other ponies. "She will never be harmed!"

"What ever you say pal," The Inner Voice says sarcastically, but Scientific is too preoccupied to notice and continues to the spa to see Twilight. Hes almost there, the home stretch, he can see the door of the spa getting closer. His vision quickly turns from the doors to the dirt road, and he falls face first into it.

"Gotcha," Rainbow yells, "Told ya i was the fastest pony in Equestria."
