Why me?
What's going on here?
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI must admit I had better restful sleep camping out in the wood alone, but I give a three star for okay. It looks like that dog gave up somewhere in the middle of the night and took my shoes with him. I wait a bit to see if it was still around hiding somewhere nearby before I leave the safety of my tree. I wasn’t born yesterday now (or was I?). I even toss a stick or two to make sure. Once I have accepted that the coast was clear I made my way down. Which was, unfortunately, a lot more painful then it should have been. That branch looked solid before I stepped on it. Anyways right now my butt (or is it a flank now?) is singing a new tune with every step I take.
Looking at the tree I found the remains of my pants and purse scattered across the forest floor. After searching the wreckage for anything useful. I have found half a phone, three pieces of pants, some used gum gross, and $3.54 in change useless. Abandoning the site and Tree-bread I headed west in search of help, or at least I think it's west. Okay, I just started walking in circles for three hours and finding Tree-bread three thirds before I found a dirt road. Looking to the left and right there was no way of telling how far the nearest town was so I started walking hoping for the best. During my walk, I notice that the forest is rather interesting when something isn’t chasing you. I saw some interesting things and had to hide again when I heard something in the bushes towards me, dumb rabbit. Two hours later after eating some leaves not grass, I not that desperate I notice that the forest wasn't a thick as it was earlier and I could see a clearing up ahead.
Once out of the forest I could see a small village. Things are starting to look up for me. I can finally someone that can help me out. With a smile on my face, I make my way to the village. However, halfway there I stop I as a thought just a cure to me. Even if I did find someone, they might find a talking horse wearing a blouse would be a bit weird. But my option is that better off leaving this town. For all, I know this is the only town within a hundred miles of here. My best bet is hoping to find someone who would actually listen to me. Better play it cool until then. Just act natural and start looking
As I started walking in the town, I notice something really fast. First of all, they are all nothing but a horse with different colors of the rainbow here. What happened here? Did some kid go crazy with some spray cans or something and branded all of them with different kinds of tattoos on their flanks? Well, at least I don’t have to sneak around anymore. I blend right in. Now all that is left is to find out where are all the people. Or at least find a phone. As I continue my search, I start to get the feeling I am being watched. Looking around me, I soon find out why. For some odd reason a lot of the nearby horses are staring at me (mostly the stallions). I just look back at them trying to figure out what they are thinking in their little pony minds.
I know I am new here and all. But I could go without the stares. Just go on about your business and leave me alone. Or how about you tell me where are your owner’s are. It’s too bad you bad you can’t talk. Now that would make my day. Then I accidentally bump into something. looking in front of me is a bright pink one with a matching mane and tale. in fact, the only thing that isn’t pink is it eyes which were blue.
“Sorry about that.”
“Oh it’s okay,” she said. Wait… It can talk!
I think I am having a mental break down now right about now. Different color scheme okay, the wood dog alright, new body cool, but a talking animal! Where in the world am I? Is this someone’s idea of a sick joke? Because I am not laughing! Now looking back that the horse I just notice how big her eyes are. They are much larger than physically possible. I got a good look at them especially when she is on top of me, pining to the floor staring into my soul. Wait, when did it get on top of me?
“Wait! You're new here. You must be. For I don’t remember ever meeting a pony like you around here before.”
Oh, so I am a pony, not a horse got it. “Uhm. yes, I am new here.”
“That means it’s time for your welcome to Pony Ville Wagon Song.” She said getting off of me so I can sit up.
OK, the town is called Pony Ville (well no kidding) so where are the humans... ok now where did she get that wagon? It was not with her a minute ago. Also why and how is she jumping like that… Wait! Now she’s cartwheeling and standing up like a person now. How is she doing that she a pony not a person!
“Welcome to Pony Ville!”
Huh! Was she saying something?
“Wait for it”
Huh? When did the wagon open up like that? And why did confetti just came out of the Ahh incoming! I manage to cover my face before something came out of the horns got me. And now I am covered in goop, great. Huh, it smells like vanilla. It tastes like vanilla cake mix.
“Oops, I put the cake in the horns and the confetti in the oven again.”
Now how in the world do you forget something like that? “Ah excuses me but who are you miss?”
“Oh, I am Pinky Pie and your new friend.”
No kidding a pink pony is named Pinkie Pie…. wait, new friend? “You really I want to be my friend? But you don’t know anything about me.”
“Well duh. If I don’t become your friend; how will I get to know you in the first place?”
"Huh, I never thought about it like that way before." She then said something really fast that I could hear her. “I am sorry Pinkie, what did you say?”
“I said why are you wearing an outfit like that. Did you lose did you lose your hat or something? Because, if Rarity saw you like this she would have a fit.” she said tilting her head.
Oh right, my blouse. “Yes, I did. I lost some parts of outfit before coming into Pony Ville yesterday. You would happen to have some with you that I can borrow, would you?” It can’t hurt to ask, right?
“Noop, sorry.”
“Oh, well.”
“But I know a pony that will be more than grateful to help you out.”
“Oh, great I hope they can I would like to wear a complete outfit soon.” Sorry but coat or not coat I will not run around here in the nude. Hopefully, her friend can help me.
“Don’t worry about it. Exclusive would just love to have a new friend that likes fashion just as must as he does.” She said leading me somewhere down the street.
Wait we are going to a dude for clothes? And his name is Exclusive?! What were his parents thinking when they named him? “Are you sure he can help us Pinkie?”
“Oh, a course he can. He’s the best fashion designer in all of Pony Ville.”
“That's because he is the only fashion designer in Pony Ville Pinkie. Since Rarity is working in Canterlot.” said a new voice behind me that making me jump in fright. Looking behind me I didn't see anyone put when I looked up I saw her. The new pony is a appears to be a pegasus? She has a blue coat and mane & tail with every single color of the rainbow.
“Hi Rainbow Dash. I am taking my new friend over to see Exclusive because she wants some clothes.”
My eye started to twitch when Pinkie said her name. Is everyone here born a corning name?
“Uh, I don’t know why you want to clothes. They just get in the way and make no sense, to begin with in the first place.”
“And what do you mean by that?” I said quickly looking straight at her. Watch it Rainbow those are fighting words.
“Nothing much. I just don’t have any practical use or need for them. But I guess you like them then?”
"I most certainly do missy." There was a bell sounded after I said that. As well as someone else talking but that not important right now. I take in a deep breath and said my words of wisdom.
“A world without fashion is chaos.”
“I couldn’t have said it better myself Mam.” Said someone else.
Huh? I didn’t notice that we were in front of another building now. There a white stallion with a purple mane staring at us with a smile in the doorway. Ok seriously knock it off the staring you ponies; it’s starting to get creepy.
“Oh hi Exclusive. I want to introduce you to. Oh, my gosh I forgot to ask you for your name!”
"Oops now, how did I forget that? Hee… my name is Jessica. It is so nice to meet you. Exclusive I presume?”
“Nice to meet you to Jessica and yes.” He said walking towards me.
And then he kisses my hoof?! I don’t know the customs here but that’s not the kind of greeting I thought I would ever receive. Oh, great now I blushing, aren’t I.
“Oh come on Exclusive. Enough with the mushy stuff. We came here to help Jessica with her little problem.”
Way to single out the elephant in the room Rainbow.
“Yes, I have noticed her predicament Rainbow. I was about to address that. I assume you are in need of a dress, Miss Jessica?”
“What! No, not a dress just some pants will do.” I said quickly. There is no way he was actually going to give me a dress. I could never afford it to pay for it if it got ruin.
“Now see here Madam. A pony of your beauty mustn’t be concealed with mere rags. I will not stand for it. As also your coat and mane are s complete mess a quick trip to the spa will fix that. And then your natural beauty will best any pony in all of Equestria. Believe you me once I am done with you even Princess Celestial will have her work cut out for her.” He said smoothly.
I don’t know about that but it has got to mean something good. Wait, a spa! “You are far too generous sir Exclusive. But I just wanted some pants. Please don’t waste so much effort on me. Really I am total fine with just the pants.”
“Nonsense Madam. I insist think of it as my gift to for your troubles.”
I am not going to be able to talk my way out of this, am I? “Well if you insist. I would gladly accept your gift and join you in the spa.” Wait that came out wrong! “I mean, shall we be on our way?” I said with a small blush.
"Yes, mam but first a quick change of clothes."
