In preparation for the ceremony the princesses had planned, posters for the event were posted all over Equestria! And it came as no surprise that the posters and flyers were seen in Ponyville. Inferno and Burst took notice as they saw a flyer posted on their shop window. "Huh. A ceremony welcoming the converted changelings. Princesses Celestia, Luna, Cadence, and Twilight will be presiding.", Inferno read. "Pretty cool. All four princesses are going to be here."
"Princess Celestia....", Burst thought out loud. Inferno smirked as he noticed Burst think out loud.
"What? You never heard of her?", Inferno asked. Burst shook his head.
"No. I know who she is. This'll probably be my first time seeing her. My father said he knew her. And that she was one of the prettiest mares he'd ever seen."
"Who knows? Maybe you'll catch her eye!", Inferno said with a playful smirk. "I'd say you've got....two days to prepare your pickup line?"
"Knock it off man! We gotta open up our shop!" Burst and Inferno went in and prepared for any and all customers that would enter the shop. The two saw a wide range of customers from children to grown-ups. But they were surprised when the Mane 6 entered the shop. "Hello there. How can I help you?"
"So this is where Inferno works. You own this place?", Twilight asked. She froze when she saw Burst. "Burst Stream?!"
"Um..yes? How do you know my name?", Burst asked.
"Oh! Luck guess!", Twilight said nervously. Burst just shrugged.
"Moving on....are any of you looking for some specific cards?"
"Actually, yes!", Twilight answered. "I'd like to make a Dark Magician deck! But I'm missing a card or two. You wouldn't happen to have a copy of Dark Magic Inheritance would you?"
"We've got a few copies on hand. I'll get it. Be right back..." Burst soon returned with the card held in his magic. "Here you are. That'll be five bits." Twilight handed over the bits and Burst set to work on helping the rest of the Mane 6 out. "So what cards are all of you looking for?"
"Ah could use a copy of Golden Apples.", Applejack said.
"Think you could hook me up with a Terraforming card?", Rainbow Dash asked.
"I'll take a Fragment Fusion card darling.", Rarity said.
"um, I'd like a Kuriboh. If that's alright with you that is.", Fluttershy said with a timid smile.
"So Burst? Do you and Inferno have decks of your own?", Twilight asked. Burst and Inferno nodded. Burst levitated his deck out of its deck box.
"Sure do.", Burst answered. "And this is my favorite card. The Blue-Eyes White Dragon."
"In my case, it'd be Red-Eyes.", Inferno said with a smile. "Is there anything else we can help you with?"
"That'll be all. By the way? Pinkie says she needs both of you at Sugar Cube Corner."
"Well, I guess we'd better not keep her waiting. Let's go!" Burst and Inferno made their way to Sugar Cube Corner and found the lights were off. The moment they went inside, the lights flipped on and Pinkie fired her party cannon!
"Did ya like it?!", Pinkie beamed. Burst was shocked and pleased at the same time! Inferno chuckled at Burst's reaction.
"Yeah. I had the exact same look when she threw me my Welcome to Ponyville Party.", Inferno said with a smile. "Now let's party!"
One awesome party later....
"I won't lie. That was one of the best parties I've ever had.", Burst said as he went to bed that night. "Looks like this town's going to be a pretty sweet place to live." Burst drifted off to sleep in anticipation of the next day.
