Equestria Pony Meat Business - Woona's Taleby Dawn-Designs-ArtChaptersPrologue Chapter 1: ConfusedChapter 2: The CrateKARiN's Letter Prologue Prologue Prologue Equestria had been facing financial ruin, all hope had seemed lost, the ponies were starving and there was barely a bit left in the Royal Treasury to help them. Unwise spending, unfavorable trade negotiations and greedy nobles were just some of the reasons that this had occurred. The Princesses of Equestria had tried all that they could to try to prevent this disaster from happening, but even they, with their seemingly infinite power, could do nothing to stop it from happening. All too soon, they were trying anything they could to regain even a fraction of their former wealth. They'd begun selling off chunks of unused land, priceless artifacts, even some of their most private secrets, all to the highest bidders. They had even considered selling off whole towns or cities, but it seemed that many other nations would rather attempt to take it all by force. The changelings were looking ready to start another invasion, the Yaks of Yakyakistan had made no secret of their desire for the Crystal Empire, and the griffons of Griffonstone were getting more hostile in their negotiations by the day, while the Saddle Arabians were completely ignoring them. The only other nation that seemed at all willing to help Equestria was the nation of the Zebras, but they themselves were not in the financial position to help Equestria in any substantial way. Princess Celestia, Princess of the Sun, was feeling helpless to help her little ponies, if these other nations attacked, Equestria would most definitely fall, her little ponies enslaved or worse. They simply did not have the pony power left in the guard to protect all of Equestria, and the six mares who embodied the Elements of Harmony's new Rainbow Power only worked against truly evil beings of great magical power causing immense disruption to the balance of Harmony. It had been while she was going through some old notes from Starswirl the Bearded that she had remembered her adventures into other worlds, and that's when she had gotten an idea. Find a new world, a wealthy world, and find something, anything, that they could sell to this new world in the hopes of saving Equestria from ruin. And so, Celestia called upon Twilight Sparkle, the Princess of Friendship to aid her in relearning the method of creating a portal into another world, and once completed, they found the world of the humans. It seemed that these humans already knew all about Equestria and the exploits of it's heroes through the show, My Little Pony, Friendship is Magic, and it seemed that all the humans wanted from Equestria were ponies; ponies for sex, ponies to eat, ponies to cuddle. And so, remembering about the Mirror Pool, Twilight had proposed the idea of selling Mirror Pool Clones to the human world, and after the conformation that this would create the greatest era of prosperity Equestria had ever seen, the Equestria Pony Meat Business was created. A factory was built, with a special AI named KARiN bought from the human world to run all the automation's of the factory, and meat ponies cloned at the Mirror Pool were shipped to this factory to be sorted. Ponies who allowed themselves to be cloned would be paid handsomely, and soon there were more candidates for cloning than the Princesses knew what to do with. Equestria was soon coming into a new age of wealth of prosperity, but also technology as all sorts of inventions and innovations were being traded to Equestria for other resources. Truly the future was bright for all ponies, well, only for the original ponies that is. The Equestria Pony Meat Business has been in operation for 4 years now. Chapter 1: ConfusedChapter 1 Confused I was in water, cold water, but, I wasn't wet. That was the very first thought to enter my mind as a large hoof pulled me out of the water. My next thought was that it sure was noisy, there were voices I did not recognise all around me. "Fun Fun Fun!" "I don't want to go to the factory!" "How is this even possible!?" "Fun Fun Fun!" "Don't cry Fluttershy, we're going to be helping all of Equestria." "Luna! What happened? Did you do something different?" "Fun Fun Fun!" "Shut it Pinkie!" "I... I don't believe so..." I slowly opened my eyes. I was in a cave, a cave containing many large cages, filled with ponies of all sorts; colts, fillies, mares, stallions, Earth Pony, Pegasi, Unicorn, Alicorn, even Zebras. For each pony I saw, I could see that there were at least a dozen identical copies of the same pony, two dozen for a certain achingly pink Earth Pony, many of which seemed to randomly chant the word fun for no apparent reason. The cave was illuminated by many glowing flowers, mushrooms and a bright, perfectly circular pool behind me which reflected everything, a mirror pool, if you may. That's how I got my first look at myself, a small dark blue alicorn filly with light blue mane and bright aqua eyes and a black ink blot pattern on my rump. My cutie mark was a white crescent moon and I wore a black tiara, a black necklace bearing my cutie mark and blue hoof boots. Turning around I saw a figure towering over me, an alicorn like me, she had the same regalia, eye colour, ink blot pattern and cutie mark as me, but her coat was a darker blue, and her mane flew as if in an eternal breeze, and looked as if it had caught and trapped a chunk of the night sky within, she was truly beautiful. "Mummy?" I asked hesitantly, for who else could this mare be but my mother when we looked so alike. The alicorn's eyes widened and I heard somepony giggling. "M...Mummy!?" the mare sputtered, "I.. I am not your mother, I am Princess Luna, the Princess of the Night, young one, and you are but a clone, a copy of me, but something seems to have gone awry, for you resemble myself from my earliest years..." I recognised the name Luna, quickly realising that it was indeed my name, and I also felt that this Princess Luna was telling me the truth. I immediately thought that the name Luna didn't fit me, and wouldn't until I grew up to be as beautiful as the Princess before me. A name quickly came to my mind and I blurted it out. "I am Woona." Luna looked even more shocked now, "how could you know my old nickname? You hold none of my memories..." "I dunno, it just came to me I guess," I replied with a shrug, not sure how to react in this situation since I had very little understanding of what was going on. I was a clone of Princess Luna in a noisy cave full of other clones, she did not expect me to be this young, my name was Woona, that was literally all I knew. "Twilight, has this ever happened before?" A massive white alicorn spoke up. She had golden regalia and a sun cutie mark, and her mane flowed just like Luna's, but it was a pastel rainbow. "No, it hasn't Celestia, at least not in the time we've known of the Mirror Pool," a smaller lavender alicorn said. She had a magenta and white starburst cutie mark and her mane and tail, which didn't flow in a magical breeze, were dark violet with purple and magenta streaks. "Luna, could you try making another clone since we still need one more of you, and we'll see if it happens again." Luna nodded and stepped up to the pool, then began the chant. "And into her own reflection she stared, yearning for one whose reflection she shared, and solemnly sweared not to be scared at the prospect of being doubly mared." To my amazement, Princess Luna pulled an identical copy of herself out of the Mirror Pool, thought this clone wore none of the regalia of the original. Twilight immediately lifted the new, very confused Luna with her magic and shoved her into a cage with eleven other Lunas. "Huh, Woona must be a one-off then, a fluke." "I think I should take Woona straight to KARiN, she's going to want to see her as soon as possible, and these other clones won't be reaching the Factory until tomorrow morning, speaking of which, the workers need to start loading up theses cages onto the carriages so the Fliers can get going sooner rather than later," Celestia said. "I agree," Twilight said, using her magic to ring a bell signalling to some Earth Pony workers to start carrying the cages above ground to the carriages. "I'll see you next Tuesday Twilight, to clone the next batch of Celestias. Luna, I'll see you back at the castle once I've finished with KARiN." Celestia then picked me up in her magic, and suddenly there was a flash and the cave dissapeared. I don't know how I knew that we teleported, I just know that we did. It felt strange, uncomfortable, like being squeezed through a very tiny hole, and it seemed to take ages, but it really only took a second. We appeared in a room, the room was brightly lit, full of computer monitors, with white panels on the walls, and a big window looking out into some sort of massive factory. There were shelves on one wall that were filled with some really super weird looking rainbow things... Dog toys maybe? There seemed to be balls on ropes, maybe those could be used for tug-of-war? Some super weird cucumbers with balls on one end, were they chew toys? All sorts of leashes and collars and some other random straps for other things, and there were lots of really big hooks that looked like they could catch a shark! Whatever pony owned all this stuff must really like dogs and extreme fishing, maybe I'd get to meet their dogs! Celestia seemed to notice where I was looking and used her magic to turn me around, a blush on her face. Now I saw there was another mare in the room, but she was strange, she seemed to be half made of metal. Would it hurt to be half made of metal? "Do you have dogs here?" I asked suddenly. "No... We don't have dogs here," the strange mare said, looking confused. "Oh... Then why do you have all those weird dog toys and those dog collars over there?" I asked, pointing to the shelves, confused, not noticing as Celestia blushed redder. "Oh," the mare chuckled then, "Those aren't for dog my dear," she said. This only served to confuse me further. "What is this Celestia?" she asked, looking at me. "Well KARiN, I'm not entirely sure, Luna pulled her out of the Mirror Pool instead of a full grown mare, you see, this clone appears to be of Luna at age seven or eight. She said her name is Woona, which was Luna's nickname at the time," Celestia said. "Hmm, could Luna repeat making a clone of this type?" KARiN asked, hoof to her chin in thought. "No, she could not," Celestia replied. "Well, thank you for bringing dear Woona to me, it just so happens that she is exactly what I need to solve a little problem I was having, you see, one of our loyal customers has paid 20'000 bits for us to surprise him with something completely new that no one has ever seen before, along with his regular monthly order of one alicorn Twilight, two Pinkie Pies and an Apple Family member, a Breaburn this month." KARiN appeared to be studying me, it was kinda scary. Celestia's eyes widened at the mention of the price. "Really, that much?" "Yes. And now with this filly here we will no longer be required to delay his shipment and it can reach him at the usual time. We'll ship her and the others out tomorrow morning, all the other clones are ready, they just need to go in the crate. We'll send a note to tell him that this, Woona, is one of a kind, since it will possibly a year or more before we can figure out how to recreate her, and she is completely innocent, so he can have all the fun he wants destroying that innocence." KARiN smiled at the thought, imagining the moment this fillies innocence was destroyed. Celestia nodded, "that sounds good. I must be off now or I'll be late for dinner with Luna, I'll see you later KARiN." And with that, she teleported away, leaving me confused and alone with the still smiling, quite scary mare. I had no idea what was happening, or what anything they were saying meant, all I could figure out was that I was the solution to some problem they were having and I was being 'shipped' somewhere, which must mean I was going to be going on a ship, which sounded exciting. "Oh Twilight," KARiN suddenly called. "Yes mistress?" A Twilight in a lab coat walked into the room. There was a big chunk taken out of one of her ears. "This dear little filly is to taken to the shipment department as part of the order for customer 305, be sure to put her in separate crate and keep her G rated. You'll find a letter printed out at printer 4D to put with the usual papers. Then gather the rest of the order and get it shipped out first thing in the morning." "Yes mistress," the Twilight said, leading me out of the room. I was disappointed that there had been no dogs here, but I hoped to never see that KARiN pony again, she confused me a lot, and kinda scared me. Chapter 2: The CrateChapter 2 The Crate I followed Twilight as she led me through corridors, down elevators, and even up stairs. This place must have been huge, and we never saw anypony else the whole time. What I didn't know was that Twilight was purposefully taking me the long way to the shipping department so that there was no chance of me seeing something I shouldn't, they wanted to keep me completely innocent after all. Eventually we came to a large room full of large crates, the sign on the door had proclaimed it to be the 'Packaging Room', part of the shipping department. There was a big door at the opposite end of the room with a sign over the top saying 'To Portal'. Twilight then led me further into the room towards two crates, a big one that could probably hold 5 ponies, and a smaller one that might hold two, stamped on the side was some sort of logo and underneath were the words 'Equestria Pony Meat Business'. "Twilight?" I asked hesitantly. "Mhmm?" She looked back to me. "Umm... What's the Equestria Pony Meat Business?" I asked, pointing to the logo and words on the crates. "Oh, well you're standing in it. You know that cave you were in?" I nodded. "Well that lovely little pool you came out of is called the Mirror Pool, and it is a magical pool that creates clones, exact copies, of a pony who says the right words." "So... It could make lots of me?" I pictured myself playing tag with lots of copies of myself, it would probably be really hard to win cause we'd all know exactly what we'd do. "It could, but we've found that clones of clones are never as good as clones of the original, sure they will act the same as the original if given memories, but they aren't as good where it counts, so yes, while the pool can clone clones, we don't. No, we'll be using science to figure out how to create more of you, without skimping on quality." She explained all this with a little smile on her face. "What do you do with all those clones? There were heaps in that cave!" I couldn't imagine what they would need all those clones for, one pony sports teams maybe? "We sell them to beings called humans who live in another world, right through the portal behind that door there," she said, pointing to the big doors. "Why do these humans want pony clones?" I asked, curious. "Well..." She seemed to be a little nervous for a moment there, but then her expression brightened, "Well you see, many of the humans are lonely, and they buy clones from us to be companions, as well as playmates and friends for their children. The humans absolutely love us ponies, they even have a tv show about us, but we can't give them the original ponies, too many humans want the same ponies, that is why we clone them, so that every human can get the ponies they want." I had no idea what tv was, but these humans sounded great! I hoped that I would get to be a friend for a child, it would be so much fun to be someones special friend! "Wow, that sounds super duper awesome, it's so nice that everypony agreed to get cloned just to make a bunch of creatures in a strange world happy!" "I'm so glad you think so, now, lets get us settled in your crate shall we?" Twilight led me to the smaller crate. It was rough wood on the outside, but inside the crate the walls had been sanded smooth so that I wouldn't get splinters. On the floor was a pile of very soft looking hay, along with a blanket and pillow. "You're a G rated filly so you get special treatment in the crate," Twilight said as I stepped inside. "Why am a a G rated filly? What is a G rated pony?" I asked, confused by the term. "Oh, umm... the G stands for great, you been been rated to be a Great filly, and as such, you get a special treat after your dinner," she gave me a bowl of a near clear soup, though no spoon, and a glass of water. "Now eat that like a good filly and you will get your treat." At the mention of a treat, I excitedly gulped down the soup straight from the bowl, barely tasting it, and washing it down with the water. "Very good girl, now here you go dear," Twilight then handed me an icy pole, which I immediately bit into, instantly regretting it as the cold hurt my teeth. "Careful, it's very cold," Twilight said, "most ponies prefer licking them." I nodded, swallowed my mouthful of icy pole, then started licking it, enjoying the lemonade taste of it. As I got braver I began sucking on it, and all too soon I finished. Sighing, I smiled, "that was really good, thank you!" "You're welcome, now I think you should lay down and get some rest, I'm sure you're very tired," she said, and as if on queue, I yawned, nodding. "Alright, well we'll just close up this crate so that you can get to sleep, and when you wake, you'll be at your new home, how does that sound?" "It sounds nice," I said with a smile, my eyelids getting heavier and heavier by the second. "Very good, good night Woona," she said as two unicorn stallions appeared and started to close up the crate with their magic. "Good night Twilight," I said quietly, then sleep claimed me. Outside the crate, Twilight smiled to herself, the filly was the most adorable, pure, innocent creature she'd ever met, and she wanted one of her own to toy with, it would be so fun to corrupt and break her. The sound of a door opening alerted her to the fact that the rest of the shipment had arrived. Another Twilight walked towards the larger of the two crates, along with two Pinkie Pies and a Breaburn. "Welcome clones, this is the crate you will all be traveling in to your new home." The clones looked at her apprehensively, the crate was like Woona's, smooth walls, hay on the floor, but no blankets or pillows. The two unicorn stallions from before returned with four bowls of the same soup they'd given Woona before. The clones were used to eating the soup by now, so they took it without a fuss, it was all they had eaten during the two weeks leading up to being sent out, so that their bodies were cleared out of anything nasty from their bodies. The soup was specially deigned to contain all the vitamins and nutrients their bodies needed, without creating any solid waste, that way the humans could be certain their meat pony was completely clean of all that nasty stuff and was immediately ready for the spit if they so wanted. The buyer of these clones always ordered at least two weeks worth of the soup to come with his order, as he mostly ordered the clones to be the meat his family ate for the month. Once they'd finished their soup, the four clones filed obediently into the crate, making themselves comfortable. Twilight smiled, these meat ponies had been trained impeccably to be obedient, they would do exactly what their new master told them to and wouldn't raise much of a fuss, even if he was butchering them alive. Most of the time they left some of the fight in the clones, many customers enjoyed the challenge of breaking them in, but there were many customers who just wanted a placid meat pony. This particular customer only occasionally ordered a more spirited pony, along with his usual four, and Twilight had to wonder just what he'd do with Woona. The unicorn stallions behind her closed up the crate and went on their way as Twilight gathered the shipment documents along with the letter that KARiN had written. Making sure everything was in order, she put the papers in a box attached to the crate, then headed to bed for the night. Author's Note Hey down-voters, just curious as to why you're down-voting, all feedback appreciated :) KARiN's Letter KARiN's Letter Dear Mr Volcan, Enclosed in the large crate is your usual order of Meat Ponies, which I am pleased to say are, as always, in the best condition, top quality, nothing less than what one one of our loyalest customers deserve. When you tasked us with including something new, something exciting, something no one else on Earth has bought or seen before, my scientists went to work, trying to figure out what to send you. We've gotten far in our research into fusion ponies, in which we take two meat ponies and fuse them into one unique combination of the two, but none of these seemed worthy of the large sum you provided. Enclosed in the smaller crate is our solution, and special meat pony which we will be unable to recreate for two, maybe three years, meaning that you have the privilege of owning the very first meat pony in a new line, years before its set to release. Now who is this pony? We here at the factory call her Woona. She is a filly version of Princess Luna. She is about six or seven years old, younger than the usual colts and fillies in our catalogues, and our experts project that if allowed to live, she will grow to be season one Luna in ten years. Woona is a G rated filly, completely innocent and ripe for corrupting. Being an Alicorn, she possesses the ability to digest meat, meaning that you can feed her with her fellow meat ponies if you so wish. It's all up to you Mr Volcan, whatever you decide to do with her, we here at the Equestria Pony Meat Business look forward to continuing doing business with you. Sincerely, KARiN Factory Director PS. I am a big fan of your meat pony torture tutorials on your blog, and I do hope the next book in your Meat Pony and You series will be just as enlightening, the right amount of storyline and advice. PPS. Have you ever considered applying to the factory to write tutorials for us? I can guarantee you a job if you do, our current tutorial writer just doesn't put in the effort, and his work isn't at the quality I require.

I had no idea what was happening, or what anything they were saying meant, all I could figure out was that I was the solution to some problem they were having and I was being 'shipped' somewhere, which must mean I was going to be going on a ship, which sounded exciting. "Oh Twilight," KARiN suddenly called. "Yes mistress?" A Twilight in a lab coat walked into the room. There was a big chunk taken out of one of her ears. "This dear little filly is to taken to the shipment department as part of the order for customer 305, be sure to put her in separate crate and keep her G rated. You'll find a letter printed out at printer 4D to put with the usual papers. Then gather the rest of the order and get it shipped out first thing in the morning." "Yes mistress," the Twilight said, leading me out of the room. I was disappointed that there had been no dogs here, but I hoped to never see that KARiN pony again, she confused me a lot, and kinda scared me.
Chapter 2: The CrateChapter 2 The Crate I followed Twilight as she led me through corridors, down elevators, and even up stairs. This place must have been huge, and we never saw anypony else the whole time. What I didn't know was that Twilight was purposefully taking me the long way to the shipping department so that there was no chance of me seeing something I shouldn't, they wanted to keep me completely innocent after all. Eventually we came to a large room full of large crates, the sign on the door had proclaimed it to be the 'Packaging Room', part of the shipping department. There was a big door at the opposite end of the room with a sign over the top saying 'To Portal'. Twilight then led me further into the room towards two crates, a big one that could probably hold 5 ponies, and a smaller one that might hold two, stamped on the side was some sort of logo and underneath were the words 'Equestria Pony Meat Business'. "Twilight?" I asked hesitantly. "Mhmm?" She looked back to me. "Umm... What's the Equestria Pony Meat Business?" I asked, pointing to the logo and words on the crates. "Oh, well you're standing in it. You know that cave you were in?" I nodded. "Well that lovely little pool you came out of is called the Mirror Pool, and it is a magical pool that creates clones, exact copies, of a pony who says the right words." "So... It could make lots of me?" I pictured myself playing tag with lots of copies of myself, it would probably be really hard to win cause we'd all know exactly what we'd do. "It could, but we've found that clones of clones are never as good as clones of the original, sure they will act the same as the original if given memories, but they aren't as good where it counts, so yes, while the pool can clone clones, we don't. No, we'll be using science to figure out how to create more of you, without skimping on quality." She explained all this with a little smile on her face. "What do you do with all those clones? There were heaps in that cave!" I couldn't imagine what they would need all those clones for, one pony sports teams maybe? "We sell them to beings called humans who live in another world, right through the portal behind that door there," she said, pointing to the big doors. "Why do these humans want pony clones?" I asked, curious. "Well..." She seemed to be a little nervous for a moment there, but then her expression brightened, "Well you see, many of the humans are lonely, and they buy clones from us to be companions, as well as playmates and friends for their children. The humans absolutely love us ponies, they even have a tv show about us, but we can't give them the original ponies, too many humans want the same ponies, that is why we clone them, so that every human can get the ponies they want." I had no idea what tv was, but these humans sounded great! I hoped that I would get to be a friend for a child, it would be so much fun to be someones special friend! "Wow, that sounds super duper awesome, it's so nice that everypony agreed to get cloned just to make a bunch of creatures in a strange world happy!" "I'm so glad you think so, now, lets get us settled in your crate shall we?" Twilight led me to the smaller crate. It was rough wood on the outside, but inside the crate the walls had been sanded smooth so that I wouldn't get splinters. On the floor was a pile of very soft looking hay, along with a blanket and pillow. "You're a G rated filly so you get special treatment in the crate," Twilight said as I stepped inside. "Why am a a G rated filly? What is a G rated pony?" I asked, confused by the term. "Oh, umm... the G stands for great, you been been rated to be a Great filly, and as such, you get a special treat after your dinner," she gave me a bowl of a near clear soup, though no spoon, and a glass of water. "Now eat that like a good filly and you will get your treat." At the mention of a treat, I excitedly gulped down the soup straight from the bowl, barely tasting it, and washing it down with the water. "Very good girl, now here you go dear," Twilight then handed me an icy pole, which I immediately bit into, instantly regretting it as the cold hurt my teeth. "Careful, it's very cold," Twilight said, "most ponies prefer licking them." I nodded, swallowed my mouthful of icy pole, then started licking it, enjoying the lemonade taste of it. As I got braver I began sucking on it, and all too soon I finished. Sighing, I smiled, "that was really good, thank you!" "You're welcome, now I think you should lay down and get some rest, I'm sure you're very tired," she said, and as if on queue, I yawned, nodding. "Alright, well we'll just close up this crate so that you can get to sleep, and when you wake, you'll be at your new home, how does that sound?" "It sounds nice," I said with a smile, my eyelids getting heavier and heavier by the second. "Very good, good night Woona," she said as two unicorn stallions appeared and started to close up the crate with their magic. "Good night Twilight," I said quietly, then sleep claimed me. Outside the crate, Twilight smiled to herself, the filly was the most adorable, pure, innocent creature she'd ever met, and she wanted one of her own to toy with, it would be so fun to corrupt and break her. The sound of a door opening alerted her to the fact that the rest of the shipment had arrived. Another Twilight walked towards the larger of the two crates, along with two Pinkie Pies and a Breaburn. "Welcome clones, this is the crate you will all be traveling in to your new home." The clones looked at her apprehensively, the crate was like Woona's, smooth walls, hay on the floor, but no blankets or pillows. The two unicorn stallions from before returned with four bowls of the same soup they'd given Woona before. The clones were used to eating the soup by now, so they took it without a fuss, it was all they had eaten during the two weeks leading up to being sent out, so that their bodies were cleared out of anything nasty from their bodies. The soup was specially deigned to contain all the vitamins and nutrients their bodies needed, without creating any solid waste, that way the humans could be certain their meat pony was completely clean of all that nasty stuff and was immediately ready for the spit if they so wanted. The buyer of these clones always ordered at least two weeks worth of the soup to come with his order, as he mostly ordered the clones to be the meat his family ate for the month. Once they'd finished their soup, the four clones filed obediently into the crate, making themselves comfortable. Twilight smiled, these meat ponies had been trained impeccably to be obedient, they would do exactly what their new master told them to and wouldn't raise much of a fuss, even if he was butchering them alive. Most of the time they left some of the fight in the clones, many customers enjoyed the challenge of breaking them in, but there were many customers who just wanted a placid meat pony. This particular customer only occasionally ordered a more spirited pony, along with his usual four, and Twilight had to wonder just what he'd do with Woona. The unicorn stallions behind her closed up the crate and went on their way as Twilight gathered the shipment documents along with the letter that KARiN had written. Making sure everything was in order, she put the papers in a box attached to the crate, then headed to bed for the night. Author's Note Hey down-voters, just curious as to why you're down-voting, all feedback appreciated :)
KARiN's Letter KARiN's Letter Dear Mr Volcan, Enclosed in the large crate is your usual order of Meat Ponies, which I am pleased to say are, as always, in the best condition, top quality, nothing less than what one one of our loyalest customers deserve. When you tasked us with including something new, something exciting, something no one else on Earth has bought or seen before, my scientists went to work, trying to figure out what to send you. We've gotten far in our research into fusion ponies, in which we take two meat ponies and fuse them into one unique combination of the two, but none of these seemed worthy of the large sum you provided. Enclosed in the smaller crate is our solution, and special meat pony which we will be unable to recreate for two, maybe three years, meaning that you have the privilege of owning the very first meat pony in a new line, years before its set to release. Now who is this pony? We here at the factory call her Woona. She is a filly version of Princess Luna. She is about six or seven years old, younger than the usual colts and fillies in our catalogues, and our experts project that if allowed to live, she will grow to be season one Luna in ten years. Woona is a G rated filly, completely innocent and ripe for corrupting. Being an Alicorn, she possesses the ability to digest meat, meaning that you can feed her with her fellow meat ponies if you so wish. It's all up to you Mr Volcan, whatever you decide to do with her, we here at the Equestria Pony Meat Business look forward to continuing doing business with you. Sincerely, KARiN Factory Director PS. I am a big fan of your meat pony torture tutorials on your blog, and I do hope the next book in your Meat Pony and You series will be just as enlightening, the right amount of storyline and advice. PPS. Have you ever considered applying to the factory to write tutorials for us? I can guarantee you a job if you do, our current tutorial writer just doesn't put in the effort, and his work isn't at the quality I require.
