Emporium Opening

NOTE:

Before you read this, I would like to apologise for my lack of updates, I have had examinations in the past couple of weeks so that's the reason why. Another thing, I will try my best to keep the uploads less than a week apart but I cannot promise anything, I shall be busy in the upcoming months. Thanks!

Emporium Opening

Rainbow Dash slowly awoke from her recent faint, to see Quinny and Pinkie staring down upon her. She almost passed out again, but this time Pinkie Pie was prepared, she had a bucket of ice-cubes on the floor that she had fetched from the kitchen. One by one she dropped ice cubes onto Dash until she woke up. "Ahem, as I was about to ask-" said Quinny as he was interrupted by Rainbow asking him questions.

"What are you doing here? What are you making? Can I be the first into the emporium?" babbled Rainbow.

"Uhm..." said Quinnston, he looked over to Pinkie Pie who seemed to have no intention of helping "yes?"

"OMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSH!" said Rainbow again, but this time Pinkie caught her before she fainted.

"Anyway," said Quinny staring irritably at the pegasus, "as you run a bakery, I would like to see if you have any sort of food, I am incredibly hungry and my emporium opens at 1 O'-" At this moment he realised that reviving Rainbow Dash had brought the time up to 12:40, "Can I buy any snacks from you miss?" he carried on.

"Sure! What d'you want? I've got everything! Cupcakes, Cakes, Fritters, Pancakes, Waff-" started Pinkie.

"Do I get a say in this?" asked Rainbow.

"You silly filly! this isn't for you Dashie!" replied Pinkie, "you can get something afterwards!"

"But, I'm going into Quinny's emporium first cause he said so!" whined Rainbow, this was very unlike her but Pinkie ignored it.

"Ahem! can I please get something" said Quinny as his stomach rumbled again, "I would like a dandelion and thistle bake please!"

"I'll be a jiffy!" giggled Pinkie Pie, ignoring the entirety of the previous conversation. She disappeared into the kitchen for a second and soon reappeared with a sandwich. "There! Twelve bits please!" The bits exchanged hands quickly and, after being unusually quiet, Rainbow started to talk.

"So, umm we knew each other in flight camp?"

"Yes, I guess we did, I was actually looking for you - don't faint again! You see, I did not know where anything was in Ponyville, but after I had seen you when I moved in, I had your name in the back of my mind for a while..."

"You remembered me? How?"

I'm talking with Quinnston Caroustanza! forget 20% cooler, double it! Thought Rainbow Dash.

"A rainbow mane is pretty hard to miss, especially when the pegasus that owns it is cyan."

"I Guess so..." said Rainbow "Did you mean what you said about me getting to enter first?"

"No, it was just to make you quiet, you seem like one of those insane fan-girl types."

Rainbow Dash turned a shade of red that matched Quinny's cutie mark. "I- Uh- No-!"

"I was being sarcastic there Rainbow Dash."

"Uh-"

"I'd better get back!" said Quinnston as he glanced at the clocktower, "5 minutes until the grand opening!"

"Aren't I going with you?"

"Aha! Yes! You can use the back door of my home to get into the Emporium, but don't tell anypony!" Quinnston said as his stomach rumbled. He realised that he had not taken a single bite out of his sandwich, he felt rather light headed.


5 Minutes later...

Quinnston was at his door, after ushering Rainbow into the corner so it looked like she came inside with everypony else, he felt the nerves grip at his chest, he was feeling the same as when he had started his original store in Cloudsdale. As he prepared himself, he walked down to his door and turned the handle...

Elsewhere...

Rarity was not having the best of days, the CMC's had attempted to be: fashion designers, which ended up in them stitching their manes together, artists which had caused them to paint over Rarity's new designs and as Rarity was about to make her way out to the opening of Quinnston's store, they shouted: "Cutie Mark Crusaders Tree Climbers!" Rarity twitched, as per usual when she was overly annoyed. She about faced and stared down at the Crusaders.

"Shall I go and find Fluttershy you three?" she glared at them with a great audacity. They immediately fell in line, saluted and fell silent. "That's better" laughed Rarity, follow me you three little ponies, or we may miss the opening.

"Who cares?" muttered Scootaloo quietly, Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom giggled, Rarity just ignored them, she arrived as the ceremony was about to be begun by the mayor.
