Pinkie Apple Pie

Flim's P.O.V.

Once we got trough the front door of the building, the smell of sweets filled my nose. The sweet aroma of cupcakes and pies being baked was breath-taking compared to the fast food that Flam and I would usually have. I guess I dazed off cause Applejack gave me a nudge in my side.

"Uh, Flim?" Applejack asked quizzically," You know what you're getting for lunch?"

"Oh!" I shouted accidentally," I mean, I think I'll have a just have a apple pie."

Applejack nodded her head before walking up to the register where a very pink pony was standing. She had light, pink fur with a hot pink, cotton-candy shaped mane and tail. Her bright, blue eyes just about popped out of their sockets when she looked at me.

"Hey, Pinkie-," Applejack started was abruptly cut off by the frizzy mare.

"Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh!" the pink pony exclaimed," I've seen you before! You and your brother almost ran the Apple family out of town! Good times, am I right?"

Pinkie, her name apparently, had a huge smile plastered onto her face after announcing her exclamation for almost everypony in Ponyville to hear without a care in the world. Applejack just face-hoofed at the overly enthusiastic mare's words.

"Yes, Pinkie," Applejack finally responded," This is Flim. He's been staying with our family for the past few days."

"Applejack! Why didn't you tell me sooner! You know how I just LOVE meeting new ponies even if they are old ponies. Ah! I just had a great idea! Why don't I make a "Welcome to Ponyville" party! Won't that be super duper?"

"Well, Pinkie," I began," That would be a great idea. I would love to make a better impression for everypony in town. To let them know I'm not just some lousy, conniving, ex-conman. What do you think, Applejack?"

"Sure, why not. While we're here Pinkie, we would like to order two apple pies."

"Okie-dokie-lokie!"

Applejack pointed to booth near away from the window and sat down and I followed in suite. In a blink of an eye, Pinkie appeared next to our table, nearly giving me and AJ a heart attack.


"Two apple pies. See you later, guys. Oh! And tell the rest of our friends I said 'hi'!

"How did you kno-," Applejack started but stopped herself,"Forget it. Thanks, Pinkie."

I looked down at the pie before me and it smelled just as good as it tasted. The apples were smoothly compressed together, making a delectable sensation across my taste buds, and the crust was perfect. Not too thin, not too thick. Perfect.

I began to eat at a faster pace, but when I looked up, Applejack was barely moving at a mosey eating her pie. I guess using hooves to eat was harder than it looked. Of course, I always used my magic to eat, so I never stopped to wonder what it was like to eat with hooves.

My pie was completely devoured, and Applejack had only ate about half of hers. I tried to think of a way to help her, but, unfortunately, she didn't have any magic of her own to use. Wait! That's it!

"Hey, Applejack?" I said, interrupting her eating," Do you think I could help you with something?"

"Um, sure?" She answered, unsure of what I was thinking.

I moved the pie over to my side of the table.


"Hey!" She exclaimed, upset I was taking her pie.


"Just wait a second."

I broke off a piece of the pie with my magic and levitated it over to Applejack. She looked at the food then at me and gave me a dumbfounded look.

"I don't get it," I stated.

"Open your mouth," I tell her.

"Wait, you don't mean-?"

"Come on, I saw you struggling to eat your pie. I only want to help you."

She gave me one more unsure glance before she gave in and opened her mouth. I moved the piece of pie into her mouth and let her swallow before getting another piece and continuing the process. Applejack finally relaxed as I began feeding her like a foal while she looked out the window, and I thought I caught the faintest hint a smile and a blush on her cheeks.

Before she knew it, the pie was gone. She looked at me with the blush still visible on her face along with a smile.

"Thanks."

"Anytime."

We got up from our booth, said our final goodbyes the bubbly pink pony, and began our walk to the next friend on Applejack's list.

"Now, Flim," Applejack began.

"Yes?"

"I know my last two friends were energetic and bubbly, but my next friend is rather shy around other ponies she doesn't really know. Just try to keep a calm, leveled voice and be kind the her animals."

"Animals?"

"She cares and communicates to animals all the time. It's her special talent. But I'm warning you of one of her pets. Angel bunny."

I gave a little chuckle at the name, but Applejack cut me off with a serious look.

"You're being serious? How can a bunny named Angel be bad?"

"You'll have to figure that one out for yourself."

We approached the complete opposite side of town and followed a trail to a small, cozy cottage on the out-skirts of town. As we go closer the cottage, I noticed many different types of animals wondering around. There were deer and bunnies playing in a field and squirrels were playing tag with one another along with chipmunks scurrying around with them.

Now at the house, I couldn't name most of the animals I was seeing. I just looked around while Applejack knocked on the door, waiting for a response.

What kind of pony will this one be?
