Meetup on the Street

Manehatten, a large metropolitan city in the eastern Equestria. I'd always wanted to go here since I was a little filly. My dad often went here when I was a little filly. You know, for business. So this is the first time I went to Manehatten.  Every year there was a big convention for business pony like my dad. This time he want me to join the convention with him. And now here I am, in a big city of Manehatten.

We'd been in Manehatten for two days. I'd seen a lot of things in Manehatten such as a huge statue of a mare holding a torch and book, theaters, and a lot of huge screens that I had no idea how they work. I might be rich, but I'd never seen such thing like that. We watched show on the theater at night, went shopping in the day, and I met somepony from Ponyville, she's Sweetie Belle's sister, Rarity. She said that she had a business in Manehatten. But she was alone. She said that Sweetie Belle had something to do in Ponyville. I believe that thing must be related with Rarity's boutique, or her friends, or anything. She also said that she had something for my mom. But then I told her that she was not here in Manehatten. She was at home in Ponyville. But she gave it to me anyway. She said that it was an order that she had not finished until she arrived in Manehatten. Well, I need to accept that because that's my mom's order. So I accepted the order and said to her that the payment would be late. Then she passed to do her business after apologize for being late, and I went back to the hotel and gave my mom's order to my dad. My dad was surprised when I gave him this package. He thought it wouldn't came. Then he explained all to me that actually my mom ordered a suit for my dad to wear at the convention. But the order never came until the day we went to Manehatten. Rarity never sent it. I told my dad that she couldn't finish the order until she arrived in Manehatten. So when she met me on the street, she gave it to me. I could see my dad's happy face when he received the package. Then he opened the package. It was a really well-made suit. No wonder why it was late. And that's not all. We found something at the bottom of that package. It was a well-sewed pink gown.  It was so beautiful. And also there's a note on that gown. It was not an order. It was a gift from Rarity for me. She really gave it to me? I didn't expect that. Maybe when I met her again, I would thank her for this gown.

Today I walked on the street alone. Dad was busy with his business. He gave me money and he said that I could use them for anything I want as long as it was safe for me. So I went to the shopping district to find something good to buy. Somepony said that it was dangerous for little filly to walk alone in the middle of a big city like Manehatten. But I'm sure I would be alright. It was a huge and crowded place. Now I really regret my decision for going here. I should've gone to the other place. I struggled to get out of that place. And when I finally manage to get out of the crowd, I was hit by somepony. Both of us fell down to the street.

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry for hitting you like that. I'm really really sorry," I said. Then I looked at the pony that I hit. That pony was familiar. She was a foal that I'd ever seen before. But I couldn't remember who was that.

"Urrgh, wait, are you," said that foal. She stood up and shown up her face. Yes, I remember now. It was...

"Babs Seed?" I asked.

"Diamond Tiara," She said. "what are ye doin' in Manehatten?"

I could see her angry face and angry voice. It was understandable because that moment I made her bully her cousin. But she hadn't changed much. I could still recognized her face and now she had already got her cutie mark.

"Well, sorry about that time. Trust me Bab, I'd change. I'm not a bully anymore," I said. I could she her face changed so quickly.

"Okay, glad you'd change Diamond Tiara. So you want us to be friend again?" She asked.

"Yeah. Why not?" I said.

"Sweet! Oh yeah, where's your friend Silver Spoon? And why are you here in Manehatten?" She asked.

"I'm here for a convention of business pony," I said. "I'm here with my dad. And Silver Spoon, she said that she was in Canterlot for a few weeks. So she didn't go with me."

"You mean, the Business Pony Convention? Y'know, I'd always wanna go to that convention. But that's only for business pony," she said. "I heard that was a great at luxury convention. I was interested to join. But I can't."

"Yes. And if you really want to join this convention, I could ask my dad if you can join or not," I said.

"Okay then," She said happily. "Oh yeah, how bout my cousin and her friends? I heard that they'd gotten their cutie mark."

"Yeah, they'd gotten their cutie mark. And believe it or not, they got their cutie mark in the same time," I said. "I'd seen them got their cutie mark in the same time."

"Really? Wow, that's really cool," she said.

"And look, you got your cutie mark already. It's beautiful," I said. Her face blushed and she turned away from me. "Aww don't be shy. Are you hungry? C'mon, I'll treat you."

"No thanks, I'm already full," she said. "Well, I need to go, bye."

"Bye, and how do I tell you that you can join the convention with us?" I asked.

"Send me a letter to this address" - She gave me a piece of paper with an address written on it - "Bye Diamond Tiara!" After that, she walked away.

I didn't expect that I would met her again. But anyway, I still had something to do before night came. I'm really hungry. Maybe I could eat something in a restaurant around here. But then, I felt something weird. Somepony's staring at me. I looked around and I saw somepony ran so quickly out of my vision. Who's that? Why that pony staring at me?

'It said that if a foal walk around the city of Manehatten alone, they won't be heard again.'

That's what people said to me when I was in the café. They said that there's an urban legend said that there was a dark creature haunting the city. This dark creature would find any foals walking around alone and it would bring that foal to the darkest part of the city. In there, that foal would be tortured and brainwashed and after seven days, that foal would back home and kill everypony on that home. After that, that foal would go back to the creature's place and be the puppet of that creature in the rest of their life. But I believe that urban legend was only created to scare children. I didn't believe that legend. As long as Celestia's in my side, I won't be taken by that creature.

It was five hours before night. I continue exploring the city by myself. I really want Babs to join me. But it looks like she was busy.
