Rounding Up the Townsfolk with Mathew

This is so cool. I’m running through the wood to go to town to find ponies to make an army for my sister so she can kill a witch to save her dragon friend. I get to make an army! I slowed my pace. I looked around as I came to a jog. I never new how pretty our woods were. I crossed the bridge that went over the Trotwood stream. It babbled loudly. As I walked into town, I wondered how I would get as many ponies as I could to join this army, 'Hooves for Hope', my sister started.

I walked up to Cloud Twister. One of my best friends. His hunter green coat streaked across the sky. Being the fastest pony in town his Cutie Mark is a shooting star. I've always been jealous of his wings but when he got his Cutie Mark, I knew I had to do anything in my power to get my cutie mark too.

"Hey, Cloud Twister!" I called him over. "I need your help."

Cloud sped over to where I was, "Yea Bro, What'ja want?"

In my most dramatic and awesome- ist voice ever I asked, "We need... to make... an... ARMY!"

"Why do you need to make an army?... If you don't mind me asking." Said a calm and gentle voice.

I turned around to see a Stallion about Faiths' age. "If you don't mind me asking." Cloud mocked the unicorn.

I grabbed Twist by his ear and turned him around and whispered "Dude, Cloud, Could you shut your trap for a second,"

"Why he's just a'nerd?"

"We need all the help we can get, besides he's older than us, and that could be a cover, for all we know, he might be a secret agent or somthin'." I turned Cloud back around. "What's your name?" I asked the dark green pony.

"My name is Serene Pie, What is yours?" the very polite unicorn asked.

"Mathew Shine, And we need to make an army because of my sister, we need all the help we can get because we're up against a scary witch and her fire breathing dragon army." I said as I wiggled my arms around.

"May I question why you know this?"

"Like I said my sister Faith found a dragon..." by this time ponies saw us talking and now we were surrounded, "But he isn't really a dragon, he's a pony turned into a dragon by that scary witch. So now the witch is making a fire breathing dragon army and if we don't stop her she's going to take over all of EQUESTRIA!!!!"

"Ohh well then, we must stop her mustn't we. Umm.. I guess I'll join. Do you have a name for this said army?"

"Yes it's Hooves for Hope."

"Hey Matt, How are you gonna keep track of all the people that join?" My pegasus buddy questioned.

"I will keep track of that if you would like," the brown haired pony said And with a poof of light green smoke a quill and paper appeared.

"Thank you, Now everypony that wants to join get in a single file line that leads to Serene Pie over there." Almost everypony got in line. A few minutes later everypony was on the list and they headed for home. So I did the same.

"Wait Matt, can I come with you?" Cloud asked.

"Sure, I guess."

"Umm... I could be of assistance...umm may i come i have always wanted to see a dragon up close?" the green stallion asked, he had a key lime pie on his flank.

"Sure, no problem."

And with that we all left for home. with my blue flank being the only bare one.
