Pinkie Pie bounced through Ponyville, eager as ever to visit Twilight. She hopped through the ponies smiling brightly, but as she was looking around, not bothering to look in front of her, she happened to crash into somepony. Rubbing her head Pinkie moaned, "Oooww..." she opened an eye glancing up to the pony towering above her. The stallion reached his hoove out laughing, "So this is the 'legendary' Pinkie Pie?" He smirked.
Pinkie Pie shot up and bowed, "The one and only!" she beamed. The colt looked at her hyper attitude, raised a brow, and simply walked away without another word. Pinkie tilted her head, "Did I say something?" she whispered. Pinkie Pie bounced after him and said, "Aw that's no fair! You know my name but I didn't catch yours!" she smiled happily. He looked at her and sighed, "I'm afraid you aren't the pony I was expecting to meet Mrs.Pinkie. You need not know my name, for we most likely will not see, or speak to one another again." Pinkie's smile disappeared, "W-what? Why not? I'm a -very- fun pony! I'm friends with every pony in Ponyville." He bowed, "Goodbye Mrs.Pinkie." he walked away from her.
Pinkie watched him leave, then shaked her head, "Aw come on Pinkie! He'll be your friend in no time, everypony loves Pinkie Pie!" Pinkie continued her walk to Twilights. When Pinkie opened the door to Twilight house she found the same colt and Twilight laughing merrily. Twilight wiped a tear from her eye, "Oh, man! You are hilarious!" Twilight looked over at Pinkie Pie and waved. The Stallion, seeing Pinkie was here said, "I think it's best I go, have fun Mrs.Twilight." Pinkie frowned as he walked out of the Library.
Twilight, still laughing, said to Pinkie Pie, "H-hey there! What do you need Pinkie?". Pinkie, still frowning, said,"I just wanted to see a good ol' friend of mine." Pinkie paused, "And who was that Twilight?" Twilight beamed, "Oh that was, Valor Strings, He is hilarious!" Pinkie looked at the floor, "He didn't tell me his name himself..." Twilight said, "Pinkie it's okay. You know every pony in Ponyville, i'm positive he'll be your friend to!" Twilight hugged her friend then said, "I need to get back to work Pinkie, but I heard Apple Jack wanted you." Pinkie Pie shot out the door, ready for something to take her mind off Valor.
Pinkie walked onto Apple Jacks farm smiling, but then she saw Valor. "And then I said, 'Apples? Are you serious?'-" Valor stopped and looked at Pinkie, "Well Mrs.Apple Jack i'm afraid it's time I left." he bowed and pushed past Pinkie Pie. Pinkie shuffled over to Apple Jack, "Hey, Apple Jack, What did you need me for?" she mumbled gloomily. Apple Jack giggled, "Oh! I was going to have you help me load some of these here apples onto Granny Smith's old truck over there. But as you can see, Valor has already helped me with that. Man that Valor is a hoot an' a holler!" Pinkie looked at the truck sadly, "Right I see. Talk to you later Apple Jack." Pinkie walked out of the farm sadly. "Well I could see Rarity! She always loves it when I help with the dresses!" Pinkie galloped with renewed happiness to Rarity's.
Pinkie Pie opened Rarity's front door and said, "I'm here to-" and then saw Rarity was no where to be seen. "Rarity?" Pinkie wandered all over the shop then heard a violin sound coming from Rarity's bedroom. "Oh that was lovely Valor Strings, absolutely lovely!" Pinkie peered around the door frame, and saw Rarity sitting on her bed and Valor standing, holding a violin. Valor replied, "I did play in an orchestra with my time at Filly-Delfia." Rarity's eyes went wide, "Filly-Delfia, -and- Canterlot? You must travel a lot!" Valor Strings nodded, "Yes I have explored almost all of Equestria." Rarity looked at Valor in awe, and Valor just smiled.
Pinkie grumbled, "He doesn't have wings or a flying contraption, I can see Rainbow Dash instead!" Pinkie ran out the door and quickly galloped over to Rainbow's Cloud Castle.
