How To Write An MLP Fanfiction

Derpy's Delivery Story

Rainbow woke up in the bright sunny morning. She yawned for a while and saw the view of Ponyville on her right side. She rushed downstairs and immediately got a blank scroll and a quill pen. She started to think of a fanfic. Her mind is generating ideas for a fanfic. She had too much to put on just one scroll, so she rushed to the drawers and found dozens of blank scrolls.

"Okay. It's time to make an awesome fanfic!" She exclaimed. She named the fanfic, "The Adventures of the Awesome Rainbow Dash". The story started when a mysterious dark enemy who conquered Equestria -- And no, it's not Discord. The Elements of Harmony where not in that old, broken down castle in the Everfree Forest, but on all the places of Equestria including Manehattan, Fillydelphia, Appleloosa, Ponyville, and of course, Canterlot. Her friends joined her to get all of the elements. So they split up. But that was what she could think of at the moment.

"Hmm.....Yes....YES! That's what I'm talking about" She said as she writes more words on the scroll.

An hour later, she mysteriously ran out of ideas to continue the story. She just stayed it there. She clearly can't think of any. Her mind was full of ideas that she can't decide which would be the next idea. She then got so confused, she shook her head. Rainbow accidentally hit a wall with her bump and fell to the floor with the scroll of her story on her face.

It was 1:27 in the afternoon and she woke up from her faint. Rainbow heard a knock on the door she tried to open it, but her head worsened. She finally opened the door. It was Derpy Hooves with a wagon of carriages on her back.

"I brought you a letter." Said Derpy. She gave Rainbow a box from her friend, Pinkie Pie. It was a box with a cake inside.

"Ughhh... Thanks." She replied.

"Umm.... Is Ms. Twilight there?"

"No, she went to Canterlot."

"Oh. Well, I better give this letter to her."

"Wait!" She interrupted her when she was about to left. "Do you make fanfictions?"

"No? Why?"

"Do you have any stories to tell from your deliveries?"

"Oh sure, I'd like to tell stories. But I mostly tell them while eating muffins. It's a good thing I got some." She opened her bag, got a muffin and ate it.

"Well come in and tell me your wonderful story." She said. Derpy came in to the library. She was mesmerized at the many books inside the library.

"Now, now, Derpy. Don't screw up your story and this place while your telling me your tale. OK?"

"Yes, Mam." She then started her story. "It all started a few months ago..."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few months ago...

I was in the fluffy, white streets of Cloudsdale. The pegasi were flying all over the place. I look to my left and see the Colosseum where they once hosted the Best Young Flyers Competition. On my right, I saw a dreaded factory, so dreaded and horrid that storm clouds covered half of the place. The owner of the place looked like you... Is she your twin? If she is, she's evil....

"Continue the darn story! I wanna hear your tale." Rainbow stared at her constantly smiling. Then she thought, "I should close that darn factory by now. But how will the rainbows be made?" She didn't mind it and continued focusing on Derpy's story.

OK. OK. When I was waking, I saw my boss. He was always cruel to people who don't deliver packages well. He called me a disgrace since I dropped the heavy objects on your friend, Twilight, back then. I was just getting the items out of the truck, but It always slip off my hooves and eventually fell. The boss told me if I was up to the task to do my first delivery to some pony named, Princess Celestia...

"Oh my gosh... She is not just a pony, she's the co-supreme ruler of Equestria." Rainbow reacted.

He said, "Derpy, are ya sure ya gonna give that heavy ol' box to the Princess? That box won't make ya fly ya know..."

"Oh yes. I can do that in a.....few days......I guess?

"Few days, eh? Well, I'll give you 5 days. When that five days are over, ya fired! Ya understand that?!"

"Yessir!" I replied.

The boss gave me the package, it was quite heavy and I was the only one holding it. I can hold it with my bare hooves but it was heavy like a rock. I can't even fly when I hold it. So I decided to walk to Canterlot. It was a very, very long walk, as if I had to get down from Cloudsdale, walk to Ponyville and get to Canterlot. It took me 4 days. The deadline was almost near for me and I could get fired because of it.

"So what happened?"

I got chased by the royal guards for entering the princess' private garden. They took me to the princess herself. But instead of her giving me a punishment, the guards apologized to me because I was the mail mare. She saw me holding a package that says: "To Princess Celestia and Princess Luna". I just didn't know how to get into a castle properly. I apologized to Princess Celestia as well. She was a nice princess I tell ya. I didn't know how to act fancy for my eyes were screwed up.

"Here is your package, Uhhhh.... Princess Celestia." I said.

"Oh thank you" She said and then asked, "Um.....What is your name again, dear?" She asked.

"Derpy Hooves."

"Well Derpy, be careful on where you're going inside the castle okay? We have an entrance to the castle over there." She pointed her hoof on the entrance.

"I didn't notice that, mam."

"Maybe it's because of your eyesight, dear." She laughed a little. "Well Derpy, you better deliver the rest of those packages. We'll meet again sometime."

She left me with a happy smile. As I saw her open the package, it was a microwave. She put it in a kitchen in their castle. No wonder it was heavy.

I heard her say, "Oh Luuuuna! Sisterrrrrr! Guess what I have." I didn't mind. I just flew away from the castle and went back to Cloudsdale with my daily routines of delivering letters and stuff to ponies.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Derpy concluded, "And that's the end of my story."

"Wow. That's kind of a neat story you got there." She admitted. "Is that a true story?"

"Yep. Anyways, I was also gonna give this apology letter to your friend, Twilight, because of me dropping stuff on her." Then realized, "Just a question. Are you the owner of that factory?"

"It's a long story... But I changed my attitude after reading that fanfic I read..."

"What is a 'fanfic'?"

"It's a long story..." She repeated. Derpy left left the library. When she left, she used Derpy's story to connect it to her fanfiction, but she still had too many ideas in her mind. She's gonna have to clear it out at night. She continued reading the book she have read.
