It was a nice morning in Ponyville .Twilight Sparkle takes a walk over to Sugarcube Corner to see Pinkie
Pie, but by the time she walks in she sees Pinkie jumping all over the place.
Twilight Sparkle: Uh, hi Pinkie what's gotten you so-
Pinkie Pie: Twilight! Did ya hear? Did ya hear? Did ya hear?
Twilight Sparkle: Did I hear what?
Pinkie Pie: There's gonna be a new pony in town.
Twilight Sparkle: Really?
Pinkie Pie: Yeah. It's gonna be so great.
Twilight Sparkle: Hey, how did you know that there would be a new pony?
Pinkie Pie: Oh I heard it from this guy who heard it from this guy who heard it from this guy who heard it from this guy who heard it from this guy who heard it from this guy who heard it from this guy who heard it from this guy's cousin that a new pony would be moving here soon.
Twilight Sparkle: Do you know what kind of pony he or she is?
Pinkie Pie: Nope, but I hope he or she like to party. Wait that's it!
Twilight Sparkle: What's it?
Pinkie Pie: We'll give him or her a surprise welcome, and I bet he or she will be so happy, he or she will want to stay in Ponyville forever.
Twilight Sparkle: Actually, a surprise sounds like a nice idea.
Pinkie Pie: See?
Twilight Sparkle: Okay. I'll get everypony in town to gather up and get ready for the surprise.
Pinkie Pie: I'll prepare the party.
Twilight rushes off to town to tell everypony to prepare for the big surprise. A few hours later everypony was hiding behind different places.
Twilight Sparkle: Remember everpony. We only jump out when the new pony takes his first step in town.
A pegasus pony then flies above them.
Pegasus pony: I see him he's coming.
Twilight Sparkle: Everypony hide!
All the ponies begin to hide and wait for the new pony to enter.
???: Hmm. If I'm right, this should be Ponyville . Strange, it's kind of empty. Where is everypony?
As soon as he makes his first step into town….
Everypony: SURPRISE!!!!
???: GAH!!
The new pony suddenly flies into the air out of fear and has a freaked out look on his face.
Twilight Sparkle: Oh, he's a Pegasus.
Twilight begins to walk up to the frozen pony.
Twilight Sparkle: Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry. We didn't mean for the surprise to scare you.
???: O-Oh. No need to apologize I'm not much of a surprise pony.
Twilight Sparkle: Let me introduce myself. My name is Twilight Sparkle. Welcome to Ponyville.
???: I'm Sketch. Pleased to meet ya.
Twilight Sparkle: Like wise. How about I give you a tour of the town?
Twilight and Sketch begin to walk together through the town. Twilight looks at Sketch's cutie mark, which was a color palette and a paint brush . Twilight then begins to put up a new conversation.
Twilight Sparkle: So what exactly do you do?
Sketch: Oh I'm an artist.
Twilight Sparkle: Really? Are you any good?
Sketch: Pfft. Am I any good?
Sketch takes out a pop out canvas and a pencil from his pack and begins to draw. In four seconds he drew a beautiful portrait of Twilight.
Sketch: Well?
Twilight Sparkle: Amazing. You did that in four seconds flat.
Sketch: What? Too slow?
Twilight Sparkle: What made a talented pony like you come to Ponyville? You look like you would be in a lot more places here.
Sketch: Trust me I've been to a lot of places. Phillydelphia, Colt Lake City, Canterlot you name it.
Twilight Sparkle: Oooo, well-traveled.
Sketch: Yeah, but I only left from all those places because no matter where I was, it felt like something was missing in my art. I thought I could find my inspiration somewhere here.
Twilight Sparkle: Well I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for here.
Twilight walks Sketch to her library as their first stop.
Twilight Sparkle: This is my library. I have tons of books here, so if you need any, I will gladly loan you some.
Sketch: Cool. Say, would you happen to have any books on Picardo va Dincci? He's one of my most favorite artists, and I want to look up some of his works.
Twilight Sparkle: Oh, I think I have a book like that inside. Follow me.
As they walk inside Twilight begins to look for the book and calls Spike to help her.
Twilight Sparkle: Spike can you help me find a book on Picardo va Dincci?
Spike: No problem Twi.
Sketch: Woah! Is that a baby dragon?
Spike: Who's he? Is he the new pony I heard about?
Twilight Sparkle: Yes. Spike this is Sketch. Sketch this is my assistant Spike.
Sketch: Wow a dragon as an assistant. Now that's cool.
Spike: Heh. I like this guy already.
Twilight Sparkle: Ah, found the book. Here you go.
She gives the book to Sketch and he puts it in his pack.
Twilight Sparkle: Alright. Onward to the next stop.
Sketch: Right behind ya. See you later Spike.
Spike: Bye. Can't wait to hang out some time.
The next stop was Sugarcube Corner. Twilight and Sketch begin to walk to the front door.
Twilight Sparkle: This is Sugarcube Corner, the town's sweet shop. They have cakes,candy, and all other kinds of stuff you want.
Sketch's stomach starts growling really loud.
Sketch: Heh heh. Well I am feeling kind of hungry. I guess I'll eat something before-
Pinkie suddenly charges out the door, lands on top of Sketch, and keeps jumping on him not knowing he's there.
Pinkie Pie: Twilight! Is he or she here? Is he or she here? I want to meet the new pony, where is he or she?
Twilight Sparkle: Close *points down to Sketch*
Pinkie looks down and sees herself standing on an injured Sketch below her. She automatically moves away.
Pinkie Pie: Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry. Uh, one second.
She zooms inside of Sugarcube Corner and comes out with a cupcake on her hoof.
Pinkie Pie: Here. An apology cupcake on the house.
Sketch reaches for the cupcake and eats it whole.
Sketch: Mmm. Pretty good cupcake.
Twilight Sparkle: I'll just introduce you. Sketch this is Pinkie Pie. Pinkie Pie this is Sketch.
Pinkie Pie: Okay. Now that the introductions are out the way, time for the most important question. *moves close to Sketch's face* Do….you like….to party?
Sketch: Well yeah. Who doesn't like a good party?
Pinkie Pie: WOOHOO! I can already tell we're gonna be good friends.
Twilight looks at the clock tower and suddenly begins to freak out.
Twilight Sparkle: Aah!
Sketch: What?
Twilight Sparkle: We're three minutes behind schedule.
Sketch: We had a schedule?
Twilight Sparkle: Come on Sketch. If we run, we can make it to the next stop on time.
Sketch: Okay. See you later Pinkie Pie.
Pinkie Pie: Bye.
Twilight and Sketch's next stop was Carousel Boutique. They ran the whole way, so they were a little bit tired.
Twilight Sparkle: Phew, made it.
Sketch: Phew, man I'm out of shape.
Twilight Sparkle: Okay, this is Carousel Boutique, a fashion studio. My friend Rarity make beautiful dresses for lots of famous people.
Sketch: Interesting.
Both of them begin to walk inside and see Rarity working on something.
Rarity: Oh hello Twilight. Oooo is he the new pony.
Twilight Sparkle: Why yes. Sketch this is Rarity. Rarity this is my new friend Sketch. I think you'll like him Rarity he dabbles in some arts too.
Rarity: Really? What kind of arts?
Sketch: Mostly fine arts. I guess you're more into fashion.
Rarity: Why yes. Do you want to see a project I've been working?
Sketch: Sure.
Rarity: Oh, I hope it fits.
Twilight Sparkle: Uh…Rarity.
Rarity suddenly pulls out a dressing curtain and dresses Sketch behind it. When she was done Sketch had on a gold suit with a multicolored bow tie.
Rarity: Well? What do you think? I never made a suit before, but I think it turned out marvelous don't you think?
Sketch: I…uh…uh.
Rarity: Oh you don't like it. Maybe it's the tie.
She tries to take off the tie and accidentally chokes him. Then she just completely takes the suit off of him. Rarity then stresses about remaking the suit and begins working.
Twilight Sparkle: Maybe we should go. Bye Rarity.
Twilight and Sketch begin to walk out of the boutique and prepare to go to the nex
