Author's notes

I do not own My Fake Fiancé. Some fancy director does. I just got the idea to pony-ise it after watching it on a Saturday night.

Please enjoy reading, cause I enjoy writing it! :-D

In the distance, south of Canterlot and downwards of Cloudsdale, is Ponyville.

A marvelous town full of cheery ponies wherever you step.

And in the centre of Ponyville is a great tree.

A great tree library.

In that great tree library, lives a purple unicorn mare.

Celestia's student, Twilight Jane Sparkle. Or Twilight Sparkle.

And today, she's visited by one of her friends, the cyan pegasus, Rainbow Dash.

"There! Finished! Are there any more Daring Do books?" Rainbow slammed the book shut.

"I'm sorry Rainbow. The delivery of books comes in a fortnight." Twilight apologised.

"Horseapples!" Rainbow Dash muttered.

Twilight Sparkle walked over to Rainbow, who was sitting in the stairs.

"But you're welcome to read any of these." Twilight levitated three books over.

"The Twilight series?! Really?!"

Twilight nodded enthusiastically.

"Nah, I'll pass."

"Awww. Why? It's such a good book."

Rainbow got up. "Just because it's got your name on it doesn't instantly make your favourite."

"That's not the reason why!" Twilight pouted. "It's such a romantic story." She sighed. "I love romance."

Rainbow stuck her tongue out. "Eww! It's so sappy. Not cool. Not cool."

"How can you not like romance?"

"It's just really girly. Something you and Rarity would drool about."

"But what about the wedding last week? Derpy and Dr. Whooves."

"Yeah, it was a wedding. I feel happy for them. But I ain't interested in love."

"What about that stallion sitting next to you during the ceremony? Vincent? I think." Twilight turned away from Rainbow, sneering.

A book flew across the room and hit Twilight.

"Ow! What the?!" She turned around to see Rainbow exiting.

"I've got to go. See ya lat-whoops!" The door handle came off.

"Rainbow!" Twilight whined as she rubbed her sore head.

"Sorry." Rainbow gave a cheesy grin before zooming off.

Rainbow landed on her front porch of her cloud house.

As she walked closer, she noticed the door open.

"What the hay?!"

She opened the door and walked inside.

Vases smashed, cups and plates demolished, random books missing, money box emptied.

Rainbow just stared at her house.

"I've been robbed."

She flew upstairs to her room.

Covers turned over on the floor, posters ripped, photos smashed.

"Where's my bed? The bloody idiots took my bed?!"

A small noise came from under the covers.

"Tank! Thank Celestia! I bet you tried your best to keep those robbers away."

Blink.

"Whatever. Right, better clear up this mess."

She stood up.

"But first, I'll report this. No-pony robs the fastest flier in Equestria and gets away with it!"

Meanwhile.

In a little house by the train station.

A jade green pegasus sat down to read the newspaper.

"So Vincent." A voice from behind called.

Vincent jumped up.

"Steel, Truck. My two favourite guys."

Two big stallions walked up to Vincent.

Steel was a grey pegasus with white hair, and Truck was a red unicorn with blue hair.

"Have you got the money?" Steel asked.

"Umm. About that." He nervously smiled.

Truck pushed him onto the table.

"Monkey has been waiting along time, Vince. Where's the money?"

"I don't have it now."

Truck was about to punch Vincent when he spoke up.

"Guys. Can we do this another time in another place?"

"How about in the minute outside on the train tracks?"

"Umm."

Steel punched him in the stomach.

"Urg."

"So you gonna get it now?"

"You guys. Cliche. That's what you guys are." He coughed.

"I don't know what that means, but you betta get that money soon."

The two gangsters left.

"What's a cliche?"

"I don't know. Besides, who cares?"

Vincent sat down on the floor. "Well I'm screwed!" He muttered as he waved his fore-legs in the air.

Rainbow randomly scribbled numbers down.

She was surrounded by numerous letters.

Bills.

"Dammit! Not only have I just been robbed but I have no money what so ever!" She threw her pencil across the room.

She groaned.

"And the boss has docked my wages. Life cannot get any better!"

She flung herself on a pillow where her bed used to be.

"Who in Equestria steals beds?"

Tank looked up at Rainbow as if signaling a conversation.

"Don't look at me like that!"

He carried on staring. "You could try and get the job Applejack offered."

"I am not accepting the job Applejack offered!" She replied.

Stare. "Come on!"

"I am not being a waitress for a family reunion!" She huffed.

Stare. Then blink. "Why not?"

"I won't here the end of it for months."

Stare. "So, what are you going to do then?"

"I'll think of something soon. Maybe tomorrow. Fluttershy and I are going to Sugarcube Corner for lunch."

Stare. "Ooo. Can you bring something back for me?"

"Yes. I will bring back a muffin for you."

Tank smiled.

Rainbow chuckled.

"At least I'm not the only one that's broke."

Blink. "Huh?!"

"That Vincent pony at Derpy's wedding said he's broke as well."

Blink. "Really?!"

"Yeah. I think he's going to Sugarcube Corner tomorrow. I might say hi if I see him."

Yawn.

"I feel the same. Especially after all this." She waved her fore-legs around.

Stare. "But what about this?"

"Don't worry Tank. I told the police what has happened."

Blink. "Okay. You should try and get some sleep. It's late. And you're stressed."

"I know. But who steals beds? Mine was a discount bed from Cloudsdale."

Stare.

"Right. I'm going to make a bed out of pillows. Night Tank."

Blink. Tank slowly made his way to an empty cardboard box.

The lights went out before Rainbow could get upstairs.

"Oh for crying out loud!"

Tank smiled.

"Next time, pay the bills on time! Seems like you have to go for the job at Applejack's after all!"

Rainbow lay down.

"Well, I'm screwed!"
