Love Completes Us

The train rolled on, a white unicorn mare with scarlet red hair watched the world pass by outside her window as the steam engine carried her to her new home. Her hair was done in a bun behind her head, two jade pins holding it in place. Besides her was an odd looking plush with a general shape of a pony, except covered by a map of different nerve and pressure points.

“Ponyville hmn...” She said to herself, a smile forming on her lips. “Papers say it's an exciting place...”

The train came to a stop. The conductor came over the intercom informing the passengers that they had arrived in Ponyville. The white unicorn made no delay in taking her bag from the overhead compartment and her plush for the seat besides her. The plush she put on her back as she would a saddle before setting off into the quaint little town. The mountain air envigorated her as she walked along the cobblestone streets admiring the wood and thatch architecture that gave her the sense of reminiscent wonderment.

She pulled her phone out of one of her saddle bags. 3:45 she still didn't need to meet up with her new bosses for an hour or so. Time to go exploring.

She didn't find much of anything the first few streets she explore, just a Town Hall, a dress shop. But the next turn she made lead her to Mane Street. Lined with ponies selling there goods out of all manner of carts and tents, it seemed to be the busiest street of all.

She took amazement at all the fresh looking produce they sold, the interesting baubles from so many places, and...flowers. The mare quickly rushed to the flower cart. She often used incense to fragrance her home, but she never knew why she didn't use flowers since they were more visually appealing. Smiling widely she buried her muzzle into one of the bouquets and took a deep breath in. Suddenly with force her head was thrown back with explosive force and she remembered why she preferred incense, allergies.

After sheepishly turning over the bits to buy the flowers she sneezed on she continued on her investigation of the town.

Finding herself hungry, she turned into one of the local confectioners. Some place called Sugarcube Corner something to that effect.

“Hello there!” A pleasantly plump mare called  from behind the counter. “I can't say that I've seen you in here before are you visiting?”

“No ma'am” she said as she looked across all the treats and baked good on sale. “I just moved in today. My names Pin Prick. I'm an acupuncturist.” After introducing herself she decided on what she wanted. “Can I have a few cupcakes and an eclair?”

“Sure.” The mare said. “I'll even give you a free shake scene you're a new move in.”

“That be great thanks, can you make cookies and cream?” Pinny asked with a tentative smile.

“Sure I'll get right on that for ya.”

After she met with her new employers, the twin owners of the Ponyville Spa, she began to settle down in her apartment. It was a cozy little place. There was a main living room in which was placed a simple reclining couch and a flat screen that routed into the cable that the building provided. Across from that was a small kitchenette, equipped with a refrigerator, sink, and oven. It seemed that she would be needing to wash dishes in her sink. A small table, big enough only to put two chairs around, was set in an area by the kitchen. The rest of the home was around a hall, with a hall closet, a bathroom, and the bedroom behind its three doors.

Though exhausted, she could see herself living happily here. As she flopped down on the couch and mindlessly surf through the channels, she began to consider all the couples she had seen. It seemed as though most everyone had a partner of sort, actual affection was to be found in very degrees. She began to wonder if there was anyone in town that would want to develop a meaningful relationship, or if they were all taken.

Still all that wasn't really at the forefront of her mind. As a new move in she would make friends (hopefully ones that use her services once and awhile). After that she could worry about finding a partner and such.

Her mind wandered to a stallion she had saw while buying the flowers. He seemed to be alone, everypony else was with a partner except for him. He most likely was just away from his partner to get groceries or somethings so she shook off the thoughts.

A few hours of unpacking later she decided to get out of the apartment and get used to the area. It was now a few minutes until eight, a restaurant could still be open. She placed her doll on the couch of the room and walked out the door.

After walking around town looking for somewhere to eat she came across a certain building. "Berry Punch's Pub? Hope it does food." As she was about to walk towards it she spotted the stallion from earlier, still alone. She watched as he entered the bar with a raised brow. "Interesting."

She walked up to a window near the bar and looked in at the stallion as he started talking to the cloaked pony beside him. The conversation quickly caught her interest, her suspicions were correct, this stallion was alone.

After hearing the cloaked pony say something about a mare walking into a library looking for a book she sneezed for some reason, looking around she saw no flowers.

"Huh, weird." After listening to their plans she sat down under the window and smiled. "Well Pinny, looks like fate has given you a chance." She giggled and walked back to her new home.
