Ch. 4 Meeting Rarity and Fluttershy

After my little incident with twilight and after dropping an F-bomb, I was walking through Ponyville just minding my own business when I saw a white pony looking at me funny. I could tell that she was a unicorn. I looked at the unicorn and said “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Uhh well that word wow” The unicorn said

I shrugged and kept walking. I had a sneaking suspicion that the white unicorn was following me. I turned around and asked the white unicorn why she was following me. “Can I ask why you are following me?”

“That outfit darling my name is Rarity please let me make you something better i mean gah” Rarity stated

“Nice to meet ya Rarity. I’m Steel.” I said. “This outfit? I’ve been wearing it for years. I could use a new one.” I started to follow her to where she worked/lived

When we arrived to Rarity's house i walked in with her seeing clothing and a lot of it

“This is my workplace and house” Rarity said

“I like it.” I said

“Thank you”

“You’re welcome.” I said as I saw Rarity getting out a measuring tape with her magic

“Now hold still”

I held still while she took my measurements for my new clothes

“Wow you look like you put on a few pounds since Pinkie Pie’s party”

“Well, in my opinion, it was totally worth it. I had a sweet tooth that day and it needed to be satisfied.” I said

“I can tell please diet or exercise for your self”

“I will. You can count on that.” I said as she finished taking my measurements

“Now lets see i think just a nice new shirt and some pants will work”
“Thanks Rarity.” I said then sat on the couch which was just a bit small for me

I was waiting for Rarity to finish my new clothes and just looked around. Everywhere I looked I saw miles and miles of fabric

“Hi” a very squeaky voice said

I looked down to see a young unicorn. “Hi.”

“Hi im Sweetie Belle what's your name?”

“I’m Steel Diamond. Weird name, I know.” I said

“Not really but there is one thing” The filly then got in my face “Don’t you dare try and take Rarity away from me she is my sister and nopony can have her”

“I really didn’t have any intentions on doing that.” I said

“It would be smart” Sweetie Belle said

“That’s true.” I said in agreement after a few seconds a blue unicorn colt came in

“Hey Sweetie Belle i needed to oh good bye~” He said walking out well running like hell more or less

“Um, who was THAT?” I asked

“Oh that is just Nova he is a cool unicorn colt”

“Cool.” I said in agreement again

“Oh Steel i am done with your clothing” Rarity said

“Thanks Rarity!” I said ,taking them. “Um, how much?” I asked

“They are free”

“Really? Thanks Rarity.” I said “you have somewhere that I can change into my new clothes?” I asked
“There is a dressing room over their” Rarity said pointing to it

“Thanks.” I said then went into the dressing room

I thanked Rarity and walked out of her house/workplace.

I was walking through town when I noticed a yellow pegasus pony hiding.

“Hello there” I said to the yellow pony who was hiding. “Why are you hiding? I won’t hurt ya.” I said

“Oh umm im sorry but umm [s=6] I heard there was a new pony in town “she said

“That new pony would happen to be me.” I said, and reached out a hand so she could see that I meant no harm. “Let me help you get out from under there.” I said

“ O-ok my name is [s=6] Fluttershy “

“I’m Steel. Nice to meet ya Fluttershy” I said helping her out from her hiding place.

“Oh umm its nice to meet you if thats ok” Fluttershy said

I smiled. “So, where do you live?” I asked

“Oh umm i live at the edge of the everfree”

“The everfree? You mean that dark forest over there?” I asked and pointed in the direction of the forest

“Well yes I have a cottage over their”

“Ok, Fluttershy.” I smiled and walked with her

“So umm i heard you are staying with AppleJack” Fluttershy squeaked out

“Well Fluttershy, that’s partially true.” I said as we got to her cottage on the edge of the everfree forest

“Oh well do you not like staying with her?”

“I like staying with her, no doubt about that. Its just I prefer to be on the move.” I said “I might actually settle down with my mother, Luna at the castle in Canterlot.” I said.

“Oh yo are Luna’s son” Fluttershy said

“I am, and proud of it.” I said as we walked inside.

“Well i think she is a bit scary im sorry” Fluttershys said

“Its fine Fluttershy. In fact, I knew a few scary people on Earth. One of those people happened to be my grandfather.” I said

“Oh my goodness that is terrible”

“Actually, I found it to be one of his best traits. He was kind and scary at the same time.” I said, remembering him.

“Well Mr.Steel it was nice meeting you but i must get my bunny fed he can get a little grumpy at times” fluttershy said

“It was nice meeting you too Fluttershy.” I said and left

“STEEL WHY IN TARNATION WHY WENRT YA AT WORK TADAY IF YER GONNA LIVE AT THA FARM YER GONNA WORK” AppleJack yelled at me

“Sorry Applejack! I was getting new clothes from Rarity, then I met Fluttershy and chatted with her.” I said in defense

“Well shoot if ya where wantin to go and mingle yall should have said somethin Big Mac was worried bout ya he thinks of ya as a little brother” AppleJack said

“I’ll apologize to him when we get back to the farm.” I said, getting in my truck. “want a lift?” I asked

“Sure i would love one in that fancy shmancy contraption” AppleJack stated

I smiled. “well, get in!” I said with a smile as she climbed in

“Shucks this is big”

“Well, where I came from, they didn’t call it a big rig for nothing!” I said as I started the truck with that familiar roar of the now 600 horsepower engine

When we arrived and got out of the truck the whole ride though i wanted to kill myself with AppleJack’s nagging what wrong have i done to deserve that But when we got inside i felt a sharp pain in my backside

“Hi Big Mac. Sorry about making you worry.” I said

“What is wrong with ya all you had to do was tell AppleBloom what you where doin i swear you are like a damn foal” Big Mac snapped

I was used to this kind of accusation so I knew how to respond. “Big Mac, first I went to get new clothes from Rarity, then I met Fluttershy and had a chat with her. I have to say, Fluttershy is the nicest pony I have ever met. No Offence Applejack.” I said

“None taken sugar cube”

I smiled and walked inside with them
