//------------------------------// // The New Member Of Equestria Chapter 5 // Story: The New Member Of Equestria // by TheDevilDogLeader1987 //------------------------------// When the conversation ended Kahmey decided to go and see if Pinkie Pie needed any help with anything. He asked Twilight where Pinkie Pie lived. “Do you know where Pinkie Pie lives?” Kahmey asked. “Yes, she lives at SugarCube Corner.” Twilight replied So he made his way to SugarCube Corner to ask Pinkie if she needed assistance. Kahmey knocked on the door. Pinkie answered the door and instantly went into a state of excitement. “KAHMEY!” said Pinkie in an excited tone. “It’s nice to see you to Pinkie, it’s also nice to breathe as well.” Kahmey said trying to get a breath of air “Oh sorry, so what brings you to SugarCube Corner?” said Pinkie Pie “I’m here to see if I can offer some assistance.” Kahmey replied “Yes actually, I’m making some cupcakes and I could really use some help with them, Mr. and Mrs. Cake are out for the day and I’m alone.” said Pinkie “Well I’d be happy to help.” So Kahmey and Pinkie started baking the cupcakes and when they got done Pinkie did a taste test and she was astounded by the way Kahmey was able to bake. “WOW KAHMEY! I didn’t know you could bake like this.” said Pinkie Pie. “I learned from my Mama.” Kahmey replied After helping Pinkie Pie, Kahmey decided to go to the local coffee shop and ordered a cup of coffee, “Could I get a dark coffee with four sugar cubes?” Kahmey asked the pony at the counter “Alright.” said the cashier. Kahmey gave the pony twenty five bits. “You kinda overpaid.” said the cashier “I get paid way too much, I have plenty to spare.” The cashier didn’t care much but she did tell Kahmey how much a dark coffee plus four sugar cubes really costs. “Okay, next time you order a dark coffee with four sugars just remember it’s only seven bits.” the cashier stated “Alright, thank you.” Kahmey replied “You’re welcome, here’s your coffee and sugars.” the cashier said handing Kahmey his coffee. Kahmey went to a booth and sat down to drink his coffee. He saw what he believed to be a draconequus appear at the counter to buy a coffee. When the creature got his coffee, Kahmey called over to it. “Hey you.” Kahmey called pointing at the Draconequus. “Me?” the creature replied. “Yes you, come here a second.” Kahmey confirmed. The creature floated over to Kahmey “Okay, what is it you want?” the creature asked “You’re a draconequus aren’t you?” Kahmey asked “Why yes, my name is Discord and you are.?” Discord asked “I’m a devil dog and my name is Kahmey.” Kahmey and Discord chatted for a little while until they finished their coffee. When they finished their coffee they went home. Kahmey went back to his house to do some cleaning for a party he had planned, when he put his long handle duster against the wall at the end of the upstairs hallway, it tore the wallpaper revealing another set of stairs. Kahmey walked up the stairs, when he got to the top he noticed all the bookshelves and the hundreds if not thousands of books. “A library?” Kahmey asked himself. He had no idea that he had an entire library in his home. He decided to take a look around. He found books that looked so old they probably wouldn’t be seen in any of the libraries. He also came across some super old spell books, spell books that probably date back before any of the Princesses. He decided to bring Princess Twilight into his newfound room. He ran all the way to Princess Twilight’s castle, he didn’t even knock because he needed her at his house and he needed her there as quick as he could get her there. “Twilight! Twilight! Twilight, I think you’re gonna like this, I found something in my house you might like!” Kahmey called out. Twilight came into the hallway. “What did you find?” Twilight asked. “You have to see it for yourself, I found another room and you’re gonna have to see it with your own eyes.” He took Twilight to his house so he could show her the newfound library. When he got to the hallway he pointed to the end. “It’s down there Princess Twilight. Take a gander when we get up the stairs.” said Kahmey. “Stairs? Okay then. Why can’t you just tell me what it is?” Twilight said in a curious tone. “Because you wouldn’t want me to spoil the surprise.” Kahmey said as he got to the door. Kahmey opened the door. “Take a gander Princess.” Kahmey said. Twilight’s eyes widened at the sight and her mouth opened up to a smile as she took in the view of all the books in the room she walked into. It may have been a mess, books all over the floor and dust all over them. The books that remained on the shelves were the worst with dust, but that didn’t bother Twilight Sparkle. “Am I in paradise or in a dream?” Twilight asked. “You’re in a dusty library Princess Twilight.” said Kahmey. “Kahmey, do you realise what you’ve found?” Twilight asked “A dirty library.” Kahmey answered. “No I see books that were around before Celestia and Luna. Books that existed before Star Swirl the bearded even knew what he did before he became as powerful as he is now. These books you have in this library are practically treasure, they are impossible to come by.” Twilight replied “Rare books? How old is this house?” Kahmey asked “That is a question for Mayor Mare.” said Twilight. Kahmey and Twilight went over to the Ponyville town hall. They asked Mayor Mare the question. “Mayor Mare.” Kahmey said in hopes that his questions would be answered. “Who are you?” Mayor Mare asked “My name is Kahmey and the house I live in has a library in it and I was hoping you could tell me how old it is.” Kahmey stated. Mayor Mare looked into the archives to see what she could find. She had to ask him which house he lived though. “Which old house are you in?” Mayor Mare asked showing four old houses. “The one to the far right.” Kahmey said laying a paw on the picture of his house. Mayor Mare pulled the files on the house from the archive. “Sweet Celestia, this house is not a house, it’s the old Tea Mansion!” Mayor Mare said. “Tea Mansion?” Kahmey questioned “The Tea family was a small but rich family. They collected books that were prone to be obsolete.” said Mayor Mare. “That would explain all the ancient books in the library.” said Twilight. With this information, Kahmey knew he couldn’t let anypony who was an antique collector know about these books. If he did he was headache bound. He decided to keep it a secret from the town and asked the Mayor if she would keep this from the public. Mayor Mare nodded her head yes. Kahmey went back home to prepare for the party, he first put an old stained glass rose door he found in the library up in the door facing of the staircase to the library.
