The Flame in the Shadows

Twilight and I were walking around in Ponyville to go to meet her friends, our first stop was a place called, Sugarcube Corner. When we arrived to the place it looked like a gingerbread house for gingerbread people,''Your friend must like sweets.'', I said to Twilgiht. She nodded to what I said and we both walked inside the house. The bell that rang when the door opened let someone know that customers have arrived. I felt like something was staring at me, I looke to my right and saw a pink mare with blue eyes. I screamed of surprise and accidently hit my head against the ceiling and fell on my ass. The pink pony giggled in laughter,''Your weird you pegasus.'', she gasped so big that she started to hop around me. ''A new pony in Ponyville! Woohoo!'', she cheered in excitement. I rubbed the top of my head,''What?'', I asked,''Well whenever I see a pony I've never met. That means that they're new and I must through a party!'', she kept bouncing around me in excitement. ''By the way, I'm Pinkie Pie! You can call me Pinke, everypony does.'', she grinned at me, still excited. ''Nice to meet you, Pinkie. I'm Shadow Flare.'', I said to Pinkie Pie without asking her if she's always this excited. Pinkie got off of me and went to the back room,''Twilight, did I just get pinned down by a hyper pink pony?'', I asked in my 'poker face' moment. ''Uhh, yeah...she does that.'', Twilight laughed a bit without warning me first. I got up on my hooves, still a bit shocked how fast that was for meeting someone. ''So, while she plans my party, who should I meet next?'', I asked Twilight,''We should go meet my friend Rarity. She lives in a boutique.'', Twilight said and lead the way once again. While our walk to Rarity, I look at every single pony in an worried way. ''You ok, Shadow?'', Twilight asked with a bit of concern, I look at her and noded. "It's just...that I don't like how I'm different from everyone.'', I said with a sad sounding tone. ''The term is 'everypony' Shadow.'', Twilight corrected,''Ok. Thanks for correcting me.'', I said with a normal tone to not sound sad. ''You'll fit in Shadow, just see.'', Twilight said like she was sure about it.
