Chapter 1

Vlad sat on the wooden chair in front of his mothers store. He sighed softly, resting beside a sign that read a simple message of discounted flowers, 3 bits for a bouquet. His job wasn't the best at times, yet he did it for his mother, and his young sister Lexi. Though instead of sitting, he wished he could be running around canterlot, enjoying the wind of the bustling city. Nothing interesting happened lately, the time he remembered was when some sort of centaur attacked the country and drained everyone of magic, it was the one time Vlad felt powerless, he couldn't do anything to help people as his own energy was drained. It didn't take long for a purple cat and a bunch of her friends where able to fix everything, yet he still felt worthless.

Vlad sighed, standing up from his chair. He opened the door to his mothers shop, the familiar bell dinging in his dog ear, causing it to perk slightly "Hey, mother.... Can i go out, please? I've been sitting there for an hour.." He pouted slightly. His mother, a slightly chubby dingo girl looks over at him, currently tending to her red roses. She smiled softly, having a genuine motherly smile

"Well.. Just for today, okay? Your sister can help me for today." She placed her watering can down, making her way over to the green dingo and giving him a tight hug, "Please don't get into trouble."

Vlad looked down at her, being the tallest in the family, "..I'll try, okay?" He pets his mother slightly, , as she let go of the hug she smiled and waved as he rushed to grab his bag, before he headed out, though as he left a frown hit her face.

Though vlad's true nature of why he left, was the reasoning of setting emotion his plan, he headed to the train station, it wasn't as crowded as he thought it would be. He heads to the ticket counter. The man at the stand looking rather bored or tired, his face lightly drooped and his eyes bagged

Vlad smiled, "Can i have a ticket to ponyville, please?"

The guy at the counter sighed as he dispensed a ticket from a small machine beside him, he held it out to vlad "..15 bits, please."

Vlad took the bits, swapping it with the 15 bits that where asked. As the train arrived at the station, Vlad watched a few people step out, before he steps in. He looked around the rather normal looking train, He was surprised, he was expecting something more into canterlots standards. He sat down, relaxing and looking out the window as the train soon began to head off to ponyville.

Nothing much happened on the ride over, though soon enough Vlad shot up as he noticed the large crystal tree come into view. His mouth hung agape as he noticed how..shiny it was. Though as he began to see the rest of the town, he began to take note at how it doesn't look like it should be there, almost like an eyesore.

As the train came to a stop, the doors opened, a few people stepping in, and more stepping out, Vlad breathed in as he stepped off the train, instantly being hit with the fresh country air.

"hm.." He smiled, walking away from the station, in an attempt to explore the town, though the castle was always see able, due to the size and..shininess. Though he seen let out a gasp as he was tackled to the ground, his face smacking into the dirt as he felt something rather heavy sit on his back. He groaned, before he suddenly got turned around, meeting face to face with a pink face, the face of a..pig. Vlad blinked as the pink girl got off him, smiling brightly as her piggy nose wiggled slightly.

"Hi!" She smiled, helping Vlad up "I saw you walk around, and ive never seen you before! So, you must be new, right!?" As her sentence stopped, she let out a light oink like noise.

Vlad backed off a tad from her forwardness, "Uhm. I'm kinda new? I'm only here for..reasons, I don't plan on living here, though. My names Vlad." He held out his hand, the pink piggy taking it with a tight grip, tighter then Vlad's used to

"My names Pinkie pie! But everyone calls me Pinkie!" She gasps "I need to throw you a party! Where are you staying!?"

Vlad blinked. "...No where? I was planning to come here, then go back home to canterlot.."

Pinkie frowned, crossing her arms "Well, thats not fun..Why not stay atleast a day or two? Theres a hotel you can stay at!" She smiled "It's not as fancy as anything in canterlot, but it'd get the job done!" She takes his dingo hand, holding it tightly as she suddenly dragged him along, though she skids to a stop and looking back "..unless you don't wanna stay here.."

Vlad blinked "i..uhm.." He blinked "Why not, i guess? Two nights would do, right?"

Pinkie smiled, nodding quickly in her usual fashion as she began to drag him along again, He squeaked slightly, staring at her squiggly tail, It poking out a small hole in her skirt. She soon skidded to a stop, smiling. He looked up, it was indeed a hotel, not the biggest, about three stories, made of wood, the normal ponyville housing, almost.

Vlad stood straight, looking at the hotel "Hm..Well, thanks..Pinkie.." He looked at her, she smiled,

"Cya soon!" she suddenly zoomed off, Leaving Vlad in the dust "..." He blinked, slowly heading inside the hotel, the hotel door dinging with a bell as a panda lady looked over, smiling brightly

"Hello and welcome to Ponyville Hotel!" She smiled, Vlad looking around as he walks to the counter

Vlad smiled softly "Is there any rooms available?"

The panda nods, She was rather fluffy, wearing a rather large maid outfit, covering most of her body "Yep! We have one on the second floor, room 204." She smiled, holding out the key "How long will you be staying, sir?"

Vlad rubbed his head, noticing her name tag 'rena' He looked at her "Is 2 days okay, Miss Rena?" He smiled. slowly taking the key.

Rena nods, smiling as she tied her teal blue hair into a bun "of course it is, you don't have to pay now, as we will add up a bill when your stay is done, thank you. and enjoy your stay." She smiled again.

Vlad headed off, waking upstairs as he finds his room, as he unlocked the wooden door, it creaked open a tad. He headed inside, looking around, it was rather nice looking, it had a rather big wooden motif. He set his bag down, sighing as he headed out once again, locking the door. As he left the hotel, he began to explore ponyville, to get his plan into motion, to hopefully steal a few things from the princess of friendship..
