//------------------------------// // Breakfast and Chats // Story: A Portal to Equestria // by abbiegail200 //------------------------------// "Ow..." "Huh? Oh, sorry! I didn't know that you were laying there when I jumped in the portal. You should have moved, silly." Autumn got up off of Finn and helped him from the ground. "I was in shock. I couldn't move." Finn chuckled. "Well, are you okay?" asked Autumn. "Yeah, I'm fine. But... where are we?" "We are in Equestria. More specifically, Ponyville!" said an excited Autumn. "Well, the outskirts of it. Anyways, follow me. There's somewhere we need to go." Autumn started walking off towards the town. "Hey, wait up!" Finn said as he trotted up to Autumn. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "So... where are we heading?" Finn asked once they were in Ponyville. "We're going to Sugarcube Corner, where a good friend of mine is. Or, well, should be," said Autumn. "Wait. How many times have you been here exactly?" asked Finn. "More than I can count." "Oh." The two arrived at Sugarcube Corner in less than thirty seconds. "Here we are!" exclaimed Autumn. "Let's go inside. I want to get this done as soon as possible." Finn followed Autumn into what looked like a sweet shop. "Hey, Autumn!" said a pink pony behind a counter. "Haven't seen you around in awhile. Where've you been?" "Hey, Pinkie. Sorry I haven't visited. Been busy with stuff," Autumn said. "Can I talk to you?" "Yeah! Sur- WHO ARE YOU?!" She pointed a hoof at Finn. "Pinkie, this is my... friend, Finn," said Autumn. "Uh, hi." Finn waved at Pinkie. "Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie! Nice to meet you!" "Nice to meet you, too," responded Finn. "Does he come from Ooo, too?" Pinkie asked Autumn. "Yeah. That's kinda what I need to talk to you about," Autumn told Pinkie. "Wait, she knows where we come from? You told her?" Finn asked Autumn. "Uuh... yeah. I, uh, did," said Autumn. "Lemme close up shop. Don't want any random ponies coming in and listening to your secrets!" Pinkie said as she walked towards the front door. She walked back and asked the two, "Do you guys want anything?" "I'll have some chocolate milk and a red velvet cupcake, please," responded Autumn. "Can I have a chocolate chip muffin and some chocolate milk, as well? I didn't have breakfast and I'm kinda hungry," said Finn. "Sure! Wait, you didn't have breakfast? Why not?" asked Pinkie. "Right when it was almost done, we got sucked into the portal. I'll tell you the story when you come back in here," answered Autumn. "Okie dokie lokie!" Pinkie said as she trotted towards the kitchen. Not even two minutes later, Pinkie came back out with a tray of two glasses of chocolate milk and two plates with different pastries on them. She walked over to the table that Autumn and Finn were sitting at. "Chocolate milks," Pinkie said as she handed the two the glasses. "Red velvet cupcake, and a chocolate chip muffin." She put the plates on the table, then went back into the kitchen. Two seconds later, she came back to the table with a slice of chocolate cake. "You guys made me want something sweet, too," Pinkie said as she giggled. "So. What seems to be the problem?" Autumn went on to telling Pinkie what happened that morning, pausing only to take a breath, a bite of cupcake, or a drink of chocolate milk. "Then we came here," Autumn finished. "Very strange. I don't know much about this portal stuff. Even after you told me some. Buuuut, I do know who does!" Pinkie said with a wide smile.
