Days after the last

It was a beautiful day at Ponyville. The weather ponies have done a great job at creating a very lovely day, by the order of our local princess, to welcome a visiting guest. None of us knew who was coming aside from Twilight, apparently it was a top secret that only the princesses knew. As Rarity and Pinkie helped to decorate the castle for our mystery guest, AJ and I were busy preparing a banquet for our guest.

Finally after many hours of hard work, the castle was fully prepared moments before our guests' arrival. Moments later Twilight greets our mystery guest at the door. He was like no pony I have ever seen before, standing twice as tall as Twilight, with two long horn much like that of a dragon's on his head, lion's claw for his front hooves, and scales all along his body, but the strangest thing of all was his mane, it changes color every time I looked. Twilight greets him as Prince AoBing of the Far East. And he bows his head in return. Prince AoBing and Twilight headed to the main throne room, as we were left with Aobing's guards. They look like normal ponies aside from having a lighter coat of fur. I offered them food, but they kindly declined. As Pinkie attempts to strike up a conversation with them, I decided to go check on Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy.

Fluttershy had offered a place in her cottage for our guest today, and Rainbow Dash was helping her clean up. When I arrive at the cottage, I found the two Pegasus had finished with their cleaning but are preoccupied with something else. I knock on the door twice, then open the door and let myself in. Rainbow dash turned around to greet me while Fluttershy remains focused on what she was doing. Before I could even open my mouth to ask, Rainbow Dashed explained to me that, they had finished cleaning around an hour ago, but as they were about to leave for the castle, they heard Angel coughing, and the cough soon spread among many other animals who were also under Fluttershy's care. Due to the sudden outbreak of what Fluttershy could only guess as the flu, Rainbow Dash and I decided to head back to the Castle, to inform Twilight that the cottage could no longer be able to host our guest for the night.

While the news did cause a small amount of distress on Twilight's part, I quickly reminded Twilight that we have a large castle able to house hundreds of ponies, but are only occupied by me and herself. Twilight quickly turned to asked AJ, Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and myself to help prepare three rooms, While Twilight apologized and tries to explained to Prince AoBing the situation. To Twilight's surprise, Princess AoBing did not seem to mind at all; in fact, he expressed his approval for the new accommodation to Twilight with a very flirtatious tone. This caused Twilight to blush, Rarity to turn green with envy, and AJ to shake her head in disapproval all at once.

Aside from the last minute change of accommodation, the first day went by very smoothly. And despite the worry of AJ and the wild imagination of Rarity, the Prince was a true gentle colt and made no unwanted approaches on Twilight that night. The next morning we decided to bring our guest to the Sugar cube corner for breakfast. Our three guest looked at our simple breakfast with amazement, it was as if they had never seen a muffin in their life. The two guards that were with the Prince wanted to examine the food for poison but was waved off.

"So this… Muffin, was it? We do not have such strange food from where I came. Is there any specific way I should sample this delicacy?" the Prince picked up the muffin with his magic and looked at Twilight for an explanation.

"You just eat it, silly." Before the prince could even react, a voice appears out of nowhere, and the muffin was snatched out of the air and devoured by a pink ball of energy. As the guards move forward to seize the Pink mare who had stolen their Prince's food, the Prince waves them off and turn his glance at the pink mare himself.

"You are…. Pinkie, am I right? While I do not mind, it is poor manner, to steal another's food." The Prince smiled while Pinkie met his eyes. "While I do not mind the action, you have however taken my muffin. And now, I am without a breakfast. A compensation for the breakfast would be fair won't you agree?" The Prince charmingly asked for Pinkie to buy him a new muffin in replacement of the one she ate. But Pinkie just stared at him blankly.

"Please excuse my friend, she lacks a degree of social grace. I will get you another muffin right away." Twilight rush forward in an attempt to resolve the issue.

"Oh! You just wanted another muffin. Why didn't you just say that? Silly filly. While I do not have any Muffins on hooves, I do however have an assortment of cupcakes." Suddenly something in Pinkie's head clicked, and she spring to life. She dash into to backroom, then reappeared moments later, with a plate that has large varieties of Cupcakes on it. She place the plate on a table then dash back to the back room, and once again reappear moments later with another plate of cupcakes…….

In only a minute, the entire sugar cube corner was filled with plates of cupcakes. With Pinkie still does not seem to be stopping, I shot Twilight a look. After noticed my look, Twilight stopped Pinkie mid-dash, levitated her onto a chair and chained her down into the chair with magic.

"I am really sorry, Prince AoBing. Pinkie Pie is…… strange. Please forgive her actions, she means no harm." Twilight apologized to the Prince who is currently struck dumbfounded by the actions that he just witnessed.

"Your Friend is ……" the Prince regained his composure and looked for the right word. “Impressive. Her speed is far above myself and my guards," he finally found the word he was looking for, and to Twilight's surprise, he was more impressed by Pinkie than weirded out.

"If you think Pinkie is impressive, you haven't seen nothing yet." Twilight grabbed a cupcake from a nearby plate and bite down with a smirky grin.
