Derpy was a single pony, just going through life not really expecting much. Then she found Dinky, an adorable abandoned baby filly. Derpy has never had such a responsibility, but with Dinky needing someone to care for her so desperately, Derpy can't give her up.
Follow along in this story as Derpy, the confused pony, raises her daughter and heals her from the life Dinky previously had.

How Dinky Became Derpy's

Chapter 1: Finding Future

Derpyhooves walked through the sun risen streets, her mail saddle bag around her hips. Usually the bag would be heavier, but after many years of carrying the mail, Derpy was stronger and used to the weight.

She came up to a small business with an alley to the left of it. She dropped off a package at the front door, after knocking with no answer. Derpy started walking away, but a strange noise caught her attention.

The trash bin, almost unseen because it was hidden in the alley, rocked as it made a banging noise.

"Huh?" Derpy said to herself, her eyes still in their cross formation, but very wide and curious. Derpy shook off her saddlebag and walked further into the alley until she was in front of the trash bin. Again, the bin rocked as it made a loud banging noise.

Derpy slowly opened the bin looking inside, expecting some terrible monster. Instead, Derpy saw a small baby foal. Slight traces of blood and bruises covered her light blue, delicate skin.

"Oh... my..." Derpy whispered. She slowly grabbed the baby, but in the act let go of the top of the bin so it slammed down on her head.

"Ow!" Derpy said, almost scaring herself. It scared the baby too, but she didn't move, too fearful of being dropped.

Derpy slid her way out of the top of the bin, with the baby in hoof. Derpy ran to her cottage, forgetting her mail bag all together.
