At the EDS (Equestria’s Delivery Services)

“Now I want you to be careful with this delivery Derpy.” An old grey pegasus told a smaller grey pegasus who saluted to her superior.

“Yes, sir.”

“I mean it Derpy. There are a lot of ponies out there that will try and take this delivery away from you.”

This confuses the mare. “What, why? We never have problems with deliveries to Pony Ville before. What has changed?”

Her boss looks around to see if anypony was in earshot range before leaning in, “Have ever heard of Trixie’s?”

She nods her head up and down “Well from what I have heard she is a traveling magic pony. Who visit Pony Ville every now and then.”

The stallion puts a hoof to his face and smiles at her innocents. “Know what never mind. Just be careful out there.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Now once you get there you are to report to Filthy Rich.”

“Wait… THE Filthy Rich!”

“Yes. He going to be there in pony to ensure that the delivery makes it's to his store.”

“Is he worried about something happening?”

“From what I have heard the Apples are going to be finishing harvesting the Zap apples and are also going to be making a delivery to his store. If there are no problems, you should arrive at Pony Ville 10 am.”

“Isn’t that a little late Sir?”

“Yes, it is, but it can’t be helped. We don’t have any more delivery ponies to help you Derpy.”

“Is that’s why I am doing this at night and not the when the Sun comes up.”

“Yes, Derpy. Also, if you see any of the element of harmony ponies don’t go near them.”

“WHAT why? They are the heroes of Equestria!”

“Calm down it is nothing personal. However, I got word form Pony Ville. That they almost destroy Princess Twilight’s castle fighting over a box of this stuff.”

“What is this stuff? Is it really that dangerous?” Derpy was getting nervous and was moving away from the wagon but was stop by the stallion.

“No, it isn’t. It’s the ponies after it who are dangerous.”

“But if the Element bears are after this stuff, then shouldn’t we get like an armored escort or something. And why am I doing this? This delivery is starting to sound dangerous.”

“Derpy you know I wouldn’t put you in any dangerous situation on the job.” He then hands her the delivery papers along with a folded paper. “Now chin up and get going; they are waiting for you Derpy.”

“On it sir.”

One hour before the market opens.

*KKK* “This Big Cheese calling Happy Pink come in Happy Pink.”

*kkk* “This Happy Pink go ahead Big Cheese.”

*KKK* “The ball is in the court. I repeat the ball is in the court.”

*kkk* “Rojer Big Cheese. Are the fans in line?”

*KKK* “Yes and no sign of the enemy Happy Pink.”

*kkk* “Rojer Big Cheese. Process to phase 1.”

*KKK* “Rojer Happy Pink good luck.”

*kkk* “I don’t need luck I am Happy Pink”

“Ah, who are you talking to Pinkie Pie?”

“GAH!” Pinkie than turned around in her bush to see one of the enemies. “Oh, HI Rarity. Umh how is it going?” she said with a big smile while hiding her walkie-talkie behind her back.

Rarity has her suspicions about her since the late time Pinkie was hiding in a bush she was trying to find out why everypony was avoiding her, for her secret birthday party. But more importantly, she knows for a fact that Pinkie has no need for a walkie-talkie. Unless she going to prank some pony. Rarity bushes her mane away from her face to get a better look at her friend. “Fine thank you for asking. But I must ask Pinkie Pie, are you planning to pull a prank on some poor defenseless pony?”

“Nnnoooo.” Pinkie said trying to hold a straight face.

“Are you perhaps playing hide and seek with Rainbow?”

“Nope.”

“Are you refilling your emergency stashes.”

“Nope.”

“Than what are you doing?”

“I am waiting.”

“Waiting for exactly?”

“Can’t tell you.”

“Is it a secret?”

Well, it is a secret operation to get all the Trixie’s before anypony else does, but I can’t let Rarity know that. But I can’t lie to her she one of my best friends. “Kind of.”

“Does it involve you and somepony else?”

“Yes. Oh! Are we playing 20 questions?”

“Yes, Pinkie. Now then, is the other pony a stallion?”

“Yes.”

“Is he some Pony I know?”

“Yes.”

“Are you waiting for him?”

Well, Cheese Sandwich is on his way here to help me. “Yes.”

“Are you two going to head to someplace private later?”

Well, we are heading to my new Pinkie cave to enjoy the cereal once we get them “Yes.”

“Is it going to be just the two of you?”

“Yes.” Why is she getting excited?

“Well then, you have my full support Pinkie.”

Pinkie looks confused at her friend. “Really?”

“Yes, Pinkie.” She then spayed her with a small bottle. “There now. That should do it.”

Pinkie sniff herself and smell roses, “Why did you do that?”

“Well if I had more time I would have done more, but this is all I can do in such short notice.”

I don’t know how this is going to help me get cereal, but I don’t want to hurt her feelings. “Ok than Thanks, Rarity.”

“You are welcome Pinkie. And once it is all over, you have to get me the details of what happened.”

“Sure.”

“Excellent, I’ll see you later Pinkie.”

“Bye Rarity.” Pinkie wave at her friend until she went around the corner. “She is acting strangely. I wonder what if she found out what I was going to do?” Pinkie then started to make her way towards the market.

One block away.

Starlight’s head appeared above a bush startling two ponies before they continue walking down the road. Her horn glows softly lifting a pair of binoculars to her eyes. “So, Pinkie, you are after the Trixie’s eh!” She then lowers the binoculars and dashes behind a food stand peeking around the side. “I have heard to tales of your appetite and witness them first hoof. There is no way I am not going to let you be the first Pony in town to get the first box!” she then dashes up a tree nearby and looks to where Pinkie was heading. “I not going to underestimate you like last time. This time, not even you, can defeat me!”

Starlight then teleports to an alley rummaging through a box she has placed there earlier. “Where is it? AH HA!” she then lifts a small golden cupcake. “I will like to see you resist this Pinkie!” she then places the cupcake on a small red scooter and cast a spell on them. Once she was done, the scooter started picking up speed taking the golden treat away. Starlight smiles as she sees her plan working flawlessly.

“OOO is that a golden cupcake?” Pinkie says as it runs by her going faster. “WAIT! Where are you going? Come back!” she then takes off after it.

“Yes! One pony down,” Starlight then looks at a paper in her saddlebags “And 89 more to go.” She then crosses off Pinkie’s name on the scroll which is titled ‘Names of all Ponies in Pony Ville.’ Before she puts it away.

Up in the clouds of Pony Ville

“Now, where are you?” Rainbow said peeking over a cloud on to the horizon. “I know for a fact that they are sending Derpy to deliver the Cereal, and she is bound to drop at least one create. And when that happens I will swoop down and help her out. And when I find that the merchandise is damage; I will buy it off from her at a discount!” she then rubs her hooves together laughing to herself. “However. Derpy has been taking better care of whatever they been giving her. And it has been over three months since her last reported accident. But that nothing a little wild twister can’t fix.” *Hehehehee*

At Pony Ville market

Fluttershy was going to the food stands to get some food for her animals. “Let’s see now. I got the carrots, I got the seeds, I got the milk, I got the--Goodness!” she almost ran into Scootaloo and her scooter but notice that instead of a filly driving the scooter it was a cupcake. She rubs her eyes to look again and the image in front of her didn’t change. “But if the cupcake is using the scooter, did Scootaloo give it permission to do so and for what reason?”

Then Pinkie jump over her causing Fluttershy to duck as her friend went after the cupcake. “You are mine you delicious treat!”

“The bake good are now running away from Pinkie?” Fluttershy said to herself in confusion.
