CH. 3 The Fitting And After

Chris arrived at Rarity's Boutique at exactly sunset,"Hope I'm not too late." He started knocking on the door frantically.

The door opened,"Oh, Chris glad you could make it. Come on let's get started." With that Rarity dragged Chris inside.

"Stay still." Rarity positioned Crys on the pedastal surronded by mirriors, as she started to take measurments,"Okay now, what color would you like it to be."

"I thought I'd just be looking at suits you already had?"

"Oh, but your not just anypony, your my friend and I will treat you as such. So, about the color I was thinking something like maroon or eggshell white."

"Is black an option?"

"I suppose, but black is just so simple, basic. I want you to be center of attention."

"Yeah, that's exactly why I like black, plus it pretty much complements any color."

"Well, I suppose. It's just I'm not exactly used to 'simple'." the word seemed burn her mouth.

"I could tell." Crys said taking a look around.

"Okay, this should only take about thirty minutes or so."

30 Minutes later

"One last stitch and, violla finished. What do you think?"

Crys turned around and looked at the mirrors,"It's a very beautiful dress and all Rarity, but there's one small problem."

"Yes, and what might that be?" Rarity asked yawning.

"It's a dress." Crys pointed out.

Rarity looked and noticed what she had done,"Oh, yes I now see that." She then chuckled nervously.

"Look Rarity it's getting late, you're clearly tired. I'll come back tommrow, earlier though. I don't want to waste anymore of your time."

"What makes you say that?" Rarity asked. Crys then gestured towards the mirrors, and Rarity took a look. She had bags under her eyes, and her mane was just a complete mess. "Okay, if you insist." Crys then relieved himself of the dress, and left Rarity's home, then started to walk towards what he considered his temporary home, Twilight's castle.

When he arrived at the castle he walked straight over to a bush,"Pinkie I know you're in there."

"No I'm not." the bush replied.

"Then who's speaking?" he got closer with a smirk.

"I am silly." Pinkie answered.

"Then were are you?" He asked trying not to laugh at the answer he expected.

"In the bush." Pinkie answered once more before coming out,"How did you know?"

"You can't disguise yourself around me. Look, I already know you're planning a party for me, can you please keep it small?"

"Okay, but how did you know I was planning a party for you?"

"I told Twilight you've been following me around. Look I'll discuss details with you tommorow." He then headed off to bed, he slowly drifted off to sleep. In his dream he found himself in the Crystal Empire, walking towards the castle and the Crystal heart. A he passed everpony who were on the streets with him seemed to cower and tremble as he passed by. The street seemed to be getting longer and longer with each step he took. The street suddenly started to shake and reality shattered like glass, leaving him in darkness. A pair of giant yellow eyes appeared followed by maniacal laughter. He threw himself forward breathing heavily,'Why does that nightnare feel so... familiar', He then realized it was similar to the one he had soon after Twilight's 'Royal Decree' for him to stay within the protection of the elements.

The next day, Crys arrived at Rarity's Boutique as soon as it opened for the day,"Oh, Crys I didn't expect you to arrive this early."

"Thought I'd come before I forgot."

"Alright, follow me this should only take about thirty minutes."

30 minutes later

"Thanks Rarity I'll be sure to take good care of this." Crys rushed back to the castle to meet Pinkie.

"Hey there, so which of these cakes do you like best." Pinkie asked when Crys arrived.

"Wow those are big cakes." He looked at the three towering cakes with labels in front of them,"I mean, I really prefer pie, but I'd go with Red Velvet."

"Okay what kind of pie?"

"Any pie really, mind if I go a little Pinkie on you?"

"Nope."

Crys teleported a chart of his favorite pies to them,"Pie chart, nice."Pinkie seemed very impressed by the concept,"Well then all I need to do is set up now."Pinkie started to leave before Crys stopped her.

"Just remember to keep it small alright."

"Okie dokie."
