//------------------------------// // Sep. 27 2012 // Story: Joy's Adventure's : New pony in Ponyville // by Crisy101 //------------------------------// September 27 2012 Well today was an alright day I guess, had another nightmare though. I just don't understand why I 'm getting these. I almost don't want to go to asleep anymore in fear that I'll have another one. I just want them to stop. Well anyways Vinyl was still there when I woke up for some reason, and she was screaming along with me because quote on quote “ it looked like fun” I swear there is something wrong with that mare. Luckily I was able to get her out of my house within 5 minutes, unlike last night. I then ate my breakfast which thanks to Vinyl ended up being crushed up mushy apple's. “sigh” I then headed out to help Rarity. It was another sunny beautiful day. But that was just it, while I do enjoy when the weather Pegging can hold off on fall for a few days, by now it was two weeks past when fall starts. Although I guess even Cloudsdale was late. They announced at work the day before I left, that fall would be held off for another couple days due to malfunctions of the machine's. But Ponyville doesn't have any machine's, it's all done by hoof here. So why in Equestria are they this late on fall! I decided to ask a nearby Pegisi about this. She explained that the reason for it still being summer, was because a lot of ponies were sick and the ones that weren't decided to take their time off now. That seemed a little weird, while I knew their had been a bug going around so that part made sense, but allowing almost all the weather ponies left, to take their time off now. What kinda idiot would would do that! But whatever I guess that explains the weather in this town... or at least I think it does. Anyways, I offered to help out. The pony I talked to said she couldn't pay me, but I'm fine with helping out, they seem like they could really use it. I then hurried over to Rarity's. I had so much fun galloping over there as fast as I could. I always loved going as fast as possible. I guess I had a little too much fun, I got so caught up in my running that I far passed Carousel Boutique and actually ended up getting myself lost. Actually...... why didn't I just fly, I could of seen everything from the air. Gah I'm so stupid, why do I never think of flying! Well whatever she wasn't expecting me so it's not like I had a deadline. I walked in and found a little dragon inside, no doubt the one Rarity had mentioned earlier. Instead of nicely greeting me though, he accused me of stealing Rarity. It's actually kinda weird now that I think about it, I mean they're different species. Then again he's just a kid, practically a baby, he probably just has a case of puppy love. Of coarse there is no way I'd ever want to “steal” Rarity, she's too fancy for me to like beyond a friend. I'm sorry but the country and fancy type's just,.. I dunno, they just get on my nerves if I spend too much time with them. I then explained I was only here to help, and he believed me. You could definitely tell he was young though, the way he acted was so obviously childlike. While you'd think a dragon would not be someone you'd want to be friends with, he did seem pretty nice, and like I said he had that cute childlikeness to him, that nopony can hate. At least nopony who like's little kids. Rarity then came out, she told spike to go 'cause sompony named Twilight needed his help at the library. He then asked me if I could do him a solid. He asked me if I could go help twilight at the library, so he could stay there. Of coarse I wasn't gonna do that, I needed the money! When I told him that though, he said he would give me his entire weeks allowance! I was quite shocked that he'd really do that. I didn't have to do the job with Rarity right away so I agreed to help him. But seriously who would be dumb enough to turn down a offer like that! Once I got there I saw a cute mare sorting books, I asked her if she was Twilight and she said yes. We then chatted a bit. I found out that her along with Rainbow, Pinkie,Rarity,Applejack, and somepony named uhh I think it it was Fluttershy, were the one's who handled Nightmare Moon's attack, Discord's return, and Chrysalis attack. Actually now that I think about it those name's do sound familiar. Ahh Now I remember, I heard about how they handled Discord's,return when I was just a filly. I loved it back then, sitting in my mom's lap cuddling at the end of the day with the fire keeping us warm while my dad told me all the exciting stories in Cloudsdale's newspaper, before drifting off into dreamland. My life was so perfect then. Why'd it have to get so screwed up!.....Well anyways I uhh I'm getting off topic. After hearing about them as a kid, It was pretty amazing to actually be talking to one of the hero's of Equestria. At the same time though it didn't really affect anything, after all I've never really understood the hype about celebrities. Actually are they celebrities? Nopony really seems to know them. It's actually really odd, you'd think after saving Equestria 3 times ponies would know you. We talked a little more, and.....she told me to do something.......Gah what did she tell me to do! I know it was important!...... Stupid. Memory. Work! Okay I'm upset now, I just know what she told me was important and now I can't remember grr. Well whatever I'll figure it out later. She then told me that all we needed to do was reorganize some books. Before proceeding to tell me exactly how to sort them, in the most complicated way ever. Seriously I could barley remember all her requirements for sorting them. She even screamed when I got a row out of order ( talk about melodramatic)! But Whatever I eventually got it all done Spike then gave me his weeks allowance. Five bits. Five! Only Five! I had worked for probably an hour or so struggling to get the books organized and I only get five bits! Not only that but he started bragging about his generosity too, that really got on my nerve's. I just wanted to scream at him so badly, in fact I still do! But I knew yelling at him wouldn't get me anywhere, so I just capped my feeling's like always. I dunno, I guess I just expected his allowance to be bigger. Maybe my friends were right, maybe I am just some stupid naive little filly................... Okay I need to stop thinking about the past it never does me any favors. I then headed out with Twilight, she said she was picking up some groceries. She then asked me what my cutie mark meant. I actually don't know what my cutie mark means. I know that probably sounds so stupid. Everypony know's what there cutie mark means. I guess that's something that might be worth figuring out, but not right now. I quickly tried to divert the topic, before I could finish though a poster slammed into my face. It seemed really odd for the wind to just blow randomly like that. Cloudsdale being the center of all things weather had a schedule for every town in Equestria, and I never saw it in the schedule for there to be much wind in Ponyville, but yet there has been. Well whatever it's probably just another malfunction of the machines. The poster was advertising a magician named Trixie. From what Twilight said though she didn't seem like a very nice pony. But I do like magic shows so I decided to check it out. That orange pony then interrupted us saying she found me another job. Umm what was her name again, Scoola hoops...no........ Grr seriously I remembered her name just a little while ago, why can't I remember her name now! I should be able to remember it, I'm good with name's gah. Well whatever she then lead me to a very nice looking cottage with little critters everywhere. Scoo uh whatever her name was took me over to the Everfree forest. The mare named Fluttershy said she needed me to help her find her pet bunny Angel. I asked her why it was so dangerous, and she causally listed off the many many dangers. How in the world could this filly just act as if it was perfectly safe! Still I couldn't not help her. She lost her pet in there, I 'd be a total jerk if I didn't help her find her pet. So we went into the forest. I suggested we split up so we could find her bunny faster, and the faster I could get out of that forest the better! It didn't take long for me to regret spitting up though. Gah Why am I so stupid, splitting up never works! Well whatever, after being chased by a manticore, I found her bunny. He didn't want to budge though. But after a little persuasion I got him to follow me. Then the manticore came back, and actually led me right to Fluttershy. But instead of being scared and running away, she started treating him like a little kitty cat. That mare is a lot tougher then she looks. After that we finally left and she gave me 20 bits. I was pretty impressed that she'd give me that much for just finding her bunny. She must really love that little guy. It was so heartwarming. I then left happily. Her personality reminded me so much of myself, I really think we could be great friends some day. It was getting late so I headed over to that magic show thing. When I got there though there was only one other guy there, Twilight sure was right when she said no one wanted to see her preform anymore. The guy there was named Sethesto, he was really strange, and way too obsessed with Trixie. He was just really weird, I really hope I don't run into him too much. Trixie then came out, but she was really upset that only two ponies came to see her. She was so upset she din't even do a show. I kinda wanted to see the show so I went to talk to her. She actually seemed amazed that I still wanted to see he preform. She then show'd me a couple of tricks, but nothing really that I haven't seen already. She was also such a braggart, I'm sure that's just part of her act though, right? If it's not then I have a feeling I'm gonna hate her. Well she did at least give me her autograph.... but it's not like I really wanted it. Still it did add a little shine to my home. I was about to get into bed, when Twilight stopped by. She thanked me for being nice to Trixie. I didn't think it was that big of a deal, I'm seldom mean to anyone. But it was still nice to hear. Anyways that was pretty much my day. Definitely a crazy one, now I'm really tired and ready for bed so I'll finish this up. Goodbye
