It begins

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.

Author's Note

Let me know what you guys think.

Twenty minutes until open market.

Twenty minutes out from Pony Ville

Derpy was doing her best to get this delivery on time, but about halfway there she forgot to bring the wagon with her and had to head back for it. “Come on you can do it.”

“Hi.” a voice called out to her.

“Huh.” Derpy stop to see who was talking to her and found it to be the Wonderbolts! And the Captain herself Spitfire!

“How are you doing?” Spitfire asks.

“Fine. But what are you all doing here?”

“We came to see how you are doing.”

Derpy shy away from her little. she never had somepony famous as Spitfire pay attention to her before. “Why. I mean… I am just a mail pony.”

“Because we want to show our appreciations to our hardworking mail ponies.”

Derpy blushes a little “Oh. Thank you.”

“And to show our appreciation we-"

“HOLD IT!” Rainbow shouted showing up.

“Oh! Hi, Rainbow what-”

“Don’t play innocent with me, Spitfire! I know what you all are really here for!”

Spitfire looks confuse at Rainbow “What are you talking about?”

“I can see Thunderlane and Fleetfoot over there looking in the wagon!”

“WHAT!” Derpy shouted looking around to see indeed that two Wonderbolts are looking at her wagon! They seemed startled at being caught looking in the wagon. “BUT you said... and … YOU ALL WILL NOT TAKE THIS DELIVERY AWAY FROM ME!” Derpy then charge towards Pony Ville leaving everyone behind.

“Derpy wait!” Rainbow called out giving chase and leaving behind two disappointed Wonderbolts and one astonished captain.

“Has that mare ever applied for the Wonderbolts before?” Spitfire asked the other two. They just shrug in response.

Back in town

Starlight smiles as she sees another pony running down the street. “And that makes 33. Not back, however, out of all of them. I only took care of one of the major ponies in my way. That still leaves Twilight and Rainbow. But then again I don’t have to worry too much about Twilight. At least I know where she is at the moment but I haven’t seen Rainbow yet.” Starlight then puts away her list and makes her way to her next victim but stop when she hears something.

“I will save this delivery!” Derpy zoomed past starlight causing her to hold onto the ground least she be blown off her hooves.

Starlight looks at where the low flying object went. “What was that!”

“Depry come back!” Rainbow flow passes Starlight causing her to hang on again.

“What in Celestial name… Wait that was Rainbow. And the mare earlier must be the delivery pony! Why that sneaky, clever, troublemaker! She goes to get the cereal before it evens get to the stores! Well not unless I was anything to say about it." she pauses for a moment. "But what can I do without giving away my goals." she taps her chin before a lightbulb brightens over her head. "I got it.” Starlight then charges her horn and teleports aways into castle friendship. There she finds Twilight in the library read a book and hasn't noticed she has arrived. She gets in close to find out what she is read. 'Hum. How to find a stallion friend for eggheads. Oh, Twilight.'

*Ahem* "TWILIGHT"

*AH* Twilight then turns to face starlight while hiding the book behind her. "Starlight that was very rude. I was in the middle of very important research."

"Right. Anyways I thought you would like to know that Rainbow is trying to steal from the delivery pony."

"SHE WHAT?"

"I just saw her chasing the mare across town two minutes ago. If nopony does something soon. Just imagine what will happen to all those packages that she is carrying with her?"

"We have to stop her!" Twilight drop the book and left the library with Starlight. Before she goes too far. She came back and put the book on the shelf and then left the room again.

Mr. Filthy Rich store

Filthy Rich is waiting at the front of his store looking at the clock tower and nowhere in particular. "Where is that delivery Pony. They are going to be late." he then sees something closing in the distance. It was the delivery pony. he smiles satisfy that they are here. "Oh good they ar-"

"OPEN THE BACKLOADING AREA!" Derpy shouted at him.

Now, normally Mr. Rich would want to tell the mare a thing or two about manners. But notice he saw the small pack of ponies behind her. He didn't ask questions and rushed to the back.

"Derpy slow down. You are going to hurt somepony." Rainbow called out to her before she turned to a pony flying next to her. "And why are you all here?"

"Oh, we are here for the race."

"What race?"

"This one. The one we are doing now. We are on our way to the finish line on the other side of Pony Ville."

"Wait there is a race and nopony told me about it!"

"But I thought you were just going to meet us later. You now give us a head start. And- wait a second!" he and others stopped flying which cause Rainbow to look back at them.

"Wha-" *umph**CRASH* Rainbow didn't notice that Derpy stop for a moment and ran smack into her wagon. This cause Derpy to enter the backway of the store before the door was fully raised, making a hole in the lower of the door as an impression of the top of her wagon.

"Careful. And you will be paying for that."

"Sorry."

Dear diary

Twilight’s diary.

Dear diary,

It has been three days since the battle at castle friendship, where me and the girls fought against one another for cereal rights. Thankfully the fighting stopped before any permanent damage could be done to the castle or to the ponies within. Although no pony knows what happen to the last box of ‘Trixie’s’ it didn’t stop Starlight from finding Trixie and asking for more. And when I mean she asks, I mean she uses her magic to shake Trixie inside her wagon until she coughs up a box.

I think she has an addiction to the cereal, but at least she is eating healthy. Furthermore, I was informed that the cereal itself is going into the open market tomorrow. I can only guess that Starlight is going to be the first one in line for the cereal. But I am coinsured for the rest of Pony Ville. It only took one box to cause me and my friends to fight over it. I can only imagine what would happen to the town if there is only one box left.

If I didn’t know better I would think that Discord was behind all this, but not this time. According to Fluttershy, he was scheming with Celestia to prank Blueblood at a party. Rarity is still waiting for the pictures that were taken when his coat suddenly turned pink and he was wearing a yellow dress.

Anyways, I am going to head to the market today to see who in town is selling the cereal. I have a feeling that something bad is going to happen tomorrow, and I am going to be ready for it.

Rainbow’s dairy

Dear ~~dairy~~ Journal

Get this that awesome cereal Pinkie showed me three days ago is going to be on the market tomorrow. I am so getting like three-no four-no five boxes of that stuff. I better find out where it’ being sold at now so tomorrow I will be first in line.

Wait but what if the news of the cereal has already reach everypony in Pony Ville? Then I better head out there now and get in line before Pinkie camps out the night there and eats all the boxes. But I still got to clear the skies tomorrow and there is no way I am going to be in the back of the line like in apple cider season. Maybe I can get somepony to cover for me. Uumm.

Pinkies diary

The words in this diary are completely unreadable. Leaving the only thing that can be made out is a pink pony pointing a cannon at other ponies; all the while pulling a wagon of boxes in it.

Starlight’s diary

Entry #122

I am going to make this brief. Trixie had informed me that her cereal is going on the market soon. And if the fight with the girls mean anything. It’s that Pinkie is going to do everything in her power to take every box in Pony Ville for herself. I can’t let that happen; all the Trixie’s belong to me. The cereal and the pony (As a friend!)
