Friendship is Recovering

Chapter 3

As I walked through the town, I cursed the fact that the marshmellow unicorn did not even give me any helpful directions to find the bar. I figured that my last resort plan actualy failed me this time, so I continued to wander the town. As I walked I thought I saw a buttered colored pony with a pink mane out of the corner of my eye, but I dismissed the sight. It was probably nothing I needed to concern myself with. I continued to wander the town when a sudden idea hits me, I should look for the town hall. I was suprised at the fact that I have easily come up with the plan, despite my "final resort" plan failing. Normaly I wouldn't go with plans I made up on the spot, but I had nothing else to do anyways. I decided to make my way towards the building that looked like the town hall. It was in the middle of the town I would guess, I can't complain about building placements because I did not build a town myself. I would have to argue that the buildings themselves looked badly built, but these pony's seem to be okay with living in them so I assumed looks could be deceiving.

As I neared the building that I assumed was the town hall I noticed that the clouds were moving. Normaly I would not look at clouds, but I was watching a weird sight. The clouds were not moving on their own, rather they were being pushed by flying ponys. I noticed that the ponys that were pushing the clouds had wings, similar to mine I should add. At least I am not some rare pony species.I thought to myself in relief. I broke my cloud watching to continue onwards to the town hall, and as soon as I took a step I was tackled by something of the cyan color. I tumbled with that cyan blur for a bit and stopped just short of landing in a puddle of mud. I would be relieved that I didn't get myself muddy, but I was looking straight up at a cyan pony with wings and rainbow hair. I was pretty annoyed at being tackled twice but I shoved my anger away and calmly asked,"Can I help you?"

"Yeah, can you move a cloud for me?" she asked eagerly.

Oh sure, asume I am from around here after tackleing me... I thought to myself annoyed.

"Well... No, I am not from around this town actualy." I said with a hint of anger in my voice. I was only angered by the fact that she assumed I was from around the town and not actualy asking me first if I was. The cyan pony then got off of me and looked embarrassed.

"Oh, I thought you were somepony else."She said. I could easily see the red on her face, but it was mostly because of mistaken identity. Wait... somepony? Doesn't she mean someone? I thought. I pushed my curiosity away for the time being. "Right, can I ask you two questions?" I asked her in a deadpan tone.

"Okay, go ahead." she responded with an eagerness to her voice.

"First, Who are you?" I asked, maintaining my deadpan tone. I thought I almost saw her jaw drop straight to the floor out of shock, though she quickly recovered and she stood up tall and pointed a hoof to herself.

"My name is Rainbow Dash, The best flier in all of Equestria." She boasted proudly. That's nice... Don't care anyways. I thought to myself.

"Right, so do you know the way to get to a bar around this town?" I asked her with annoyance in my voice.

"Can't help you there." She responded in a bit of a sad tone.

"Oh come on! Must every time I ask for directions result in me getting nowhere!?" I shouted loudly.

"I do know somepony who can, why don't you try looking in the park?" She said, looking about as annoyed as I was from my shouting. I calmed down almost immediately because she actualy gave me a proper direction this time.

"Right, thank you for giving me a dirrection to go from. It would help me alot." I said being a bit more cheerful than I was earlier.

"No problem, good luck in your search." She responded. As she flew off I thought to myself, The park huh... better than what I got earlier.I made my way towards the park, hoping that I would find the lead that Rainbow talked about.

As I was walking over a bridge to reach the park, I noticed an intresting sight: A purple unicorn walking with a white unicorn, and a red pony. I figured that one of them may know the direction towards the bar so I walked up to them.

"Hello, can I ask you three something?" I said with almost an eager tone of voice.

"Sure what do you need?" The purple unicorn replied.

"I was looking for directions to the bar actualy. Do you know where it is?" I asked the purple unicorn, silently hoping that she would say yes. Before the purple unicorn could say anything the red pony scoffed.

"You don't know where the bar is? Wow, you must be lost!" He taunted.

"Pyro!" Exclaimed the purple unicorn. I made the connection of him being the pony that Mrs. Marshmallow was talking about, but I was not going to let him get away with that taunt.

"You would be lost if you were new to a town!" I shot at Pyro.

"Well I have a better sence of direction than a pegasus does," Pyro said smugly with a cocky grin, "always have."

I was not going to let him get away with that so I decided to hit him with my front hoof in the attempt of a punch. As soon as my hoof touched him, I pulled it away quickly as it felt like my hoof was set on fire. Ow! Fireboy almost burned me! I thought to myself as I gently set my hoof back on the floor. How in the hell is that even possible?

"Pyro stop taunting him! I'm sorry mister but you should really get going." The purple unicorn responded. She also gave me a map and pointed out where the bar was. I thanked her and silently congratulated myself for actualy finding the bar. Now I made my way towards the bar, expecting to get a very strong drink for my troubles.
