WAY Out of place

I looked around myself trying to figure out what I just saw. "Pinkie I'm okay with, but that's what's bothering me? I'm losing my freakin' mind." I sighed and trotted back up to Twilight at the door to the boutique. Spike groaned for some reason and Kian looked back to him over his shoulder. Twilight held a worried stare at the door. "What's the ma-err?" I asked.

(What's the matter?)

"This." She said pointing a hoof at a small sign hanging on the door.

"Hmm." I Looked to and read it.

Away on important business, closed until further notice.

"At's weirrd." (That's weird.) I stated looking it over again. The sign looked like it was written in pen and hung up not to long ago. "Must of been in a hurry."

Twilight sighed. "Oh well. We'll see her some time. Let's see, where to next then?" She said to herself, sitting down. "Applejack and Fluttershy live on opposite sides of town and Rainbow Dash lives about the same distance as all of them to the south." Her brow furrowed and she let out a huff and looked back to me.

I smiled and looked back to Kian. His expression showed he'd given up on figuring out Pinkie and went back to being a bit mopey about things. "Whoo woould yoou like to met firrst?" I asked him. "Applejack, Flu-errshy, orr Rreinboow Dash."

(Who would youl like to meet first?) (Applejack, Fluttershy, or Rainbow Dash.)

"Oh they all sound so interesting." He said sitting down and letting Spike hop off. "Why don't you tell me about them since no one can decide and you seem to know them all so well." His voice thick like sarcastic marmite.

I sat down beside Twilight and sighed. "Let's see." I trailed off. "Well therre's Applejack. Herr and herr family rrun Swet a-pple acrres, the local a-pple orrcharrds. She's that kinda down to earrth lass who's honest and harrd working."

(Well there's Applejack. Her and her family run Sweet apple Acres, the local apple orchards. She's that kinda down to earth girls who's honest and hard working.)

"Boy howdy." Kian said slumping down and laying on the paved pathway.

"Thn therre's Rrainboow Dash who's in charrge of Clooud contrrool. She likes flyin' fast and pleying prranks on poonies."
(Then there's Rainbow Dash who's in charge of Cloud control. She likes flying fast and playing pranks on ponies.)

"Cloud control?" He asked raising his head. "What's that?"

I leaned over to Twilight. "How much about Pegasi have you told him about?"

"Just that they have wings and can fly. I never got around to explaining all the things about them to him." She said softly.

I sighed and leaned away looking back to Kian. "Alrright, lessen time. Pegasi arre poonies with wengs. Sence they cen fly and moove cloouds they contrrool the wheatherr. Equesttria's differrent in moorre than jyust species."

(Alright, lesson time. Pegasi are ponies with wings. Since they can fly and move clouds, they control the weather. Equestria's different in more than just species.)

"Jesus Christ." He said burrying his face in his forelegs. "Why is everything here so freakin' bananas?"

"Shit and syphilis lad, shit and syphilis."
(Shit and syphilis bot, shit and syphilis.)

"Our dad really was an ass." Kian groaned.

"Mmhmph." I nodded. "And tha leves us with der li-l Flu-errshy. Like Rrainboow she's a Pegasus, but unlike her, she keps to the ground. She takes carre of a lot of the animals arround erre at herr cabin nearr the Everrfrre forrest. She's kind, carring, and, as herr name tells, a wee bit shy arround otherr poonies."

(Ant that leaves us with dear little Fluttershy. Like Rainbow she's a Pegasus, but unlike here, she keeps to the ground. She takes care of a lot of the animals around here at her cabin near the Everfree forest. She's kind and caring, and, as her names tells, a little shy around others.)

"Animals huh?" He sighed and sat up. "I guess it's not that bad. Better not get my hopes up."

"Alrright, so what'll it be? AJ, Rrainboow, or Flu-er?"
(Alright, so what'll it be? AJ, Rainbow, or Flutters?)

He covered his ears with his hooves "Please don't say rainbow ever again. Ever."

"Fine." I said rolling my eyes.

"I don't really care." He sighed. "Which one's closer?"

"I guess we could go from left to right, Applejack's would be in this direction." She said pointing down another pathway.

"Then let's get gooing." I said standing up.
(Then let's get going.)

Twilight and Kian stood and we walked in the direction Twilight pointed, a disappointed looking Spike jumped up onto Kian's back. I still don't get how he'd be cool with that. We continued our trek.

A twenty minute walk and we were walking along the dirt road. Kian looked along the rows of apple trees with the slightest smile. I smiled and nudged Twilight. She looked over to me and I cocked my head in Kian's direction. She looked back to him and looked back to me with a soft smile. A quick peck was shared and we arrived at the farm. I looked on at the barn and farmhouse, following Twilight up the path to it. We stopped at the door and she knocked. I looked back to see Spike stretched out on his hind legs atop Kian's head. He was stretched out and leaning against a nearby apple tree. Spike reached out and grabbed one of the apples in his scaly hand pulling it.

The apple came off the branch and he hopped down to the ground, holding up the shiny red apple to Kian. He took a decent sized bite with an audible crunch and chewed with a thoughtful expression. He tilted his head from side-to-side and nodded in approval. I smiled and trotted off the porch and over to them "Wassup guys?"

"So you finally stopped talking like an idiot." Kian quirked.

"No one'll hear us from the house and there's no one around the farm, so why not." I said shrugging.

"I guess your right. Anyway, Spike said this place was supposed to have the best apples in Ponyvill. I thought I might try one."

I had to agree. From what I've seen, they did look pretty good. A low growl came from my stomach. "I haven't actually eaten all day. I could go for some fruit." I said walking up to the tree.

I turned around and looked at it over my shoulder. "What are you doing?" Kian asked.

"Just watch, I bet he's real strong." Spike said leaning with his arm out against Kian.

I leaned forward onto my forelegs and bucked out with my hind legs, hitting the trunk and giving both it and me a shake. I felt the hit run through me like a tremor and I wobbled forward. A few leaves fell and an apple fell down and was impaled on my horn with a plopping squish. I didn't notice it and looked at them, both their faces holding grins and suppressed laughter. I looked up to the tree. "Damn, I really hoped that would work." I sighed. "I guess I'll get something at Twilight's." I said walking back toward the farmhouse.

Twilight trotted down from the porch to us with a sad and frustrated expression. "Noponies home."

A snickering Kian with a chuckling Spike on his back walked over beside us.

"What's so funny?" Twilight asked.

Spike laughed and pointed at me. Twilight looked up to me and held a hoof over her mouth in a giggle. "What? What are you laughing at?"
