The adrenaline, of course, ran out a few minutes after the race had ended, but not until after we had sat down to lunch did I really start to feel it...and damn It felt good to be alive! "Yo, Rainbow Dash, you sure this is lunch food? This place looks like a gingerbread house.," I said with an unsure look on my face.
"Don't sweat it Ignitor, this place's sweets are pretty filling. Can't judge a cloud by it's color right?," she paused, and we both realized that cloud is made for certain tasks, therefore the color meaning what it means, "Ya know, scratch that. Just try some of their cake, it's the greatest in Equestria!"
"I'll take your word for i-," it was at that point that the adrenaline wore off, and the pain set in, "Hehehehehe."
She said something, but I couldn't hear a lick of it, the pain cut deep into my very being, taking my mind off of everything around me. When my hearing came back, I noticed she had a worried expression on her face, "-ou alright?"
I guess she asked if I was alright?"Uhh yeah, I'm good, nothin' out of the ordinary here, no ma'am!," I can't tell her that pain explicits a laugh from me. She probably would think I'm a freak, and that'd cost me a job real fast...
"In that case, let's order! I'm thinking about ordering a few cupcakes, they have super chocolate ones that are simply awesome!," she responded, not even paying attention to my peculiar rambling, "Hey Pinkie!"
An all pink mare materialized in front of us, Wait, I've seen her before haven't I...wait where in Canterlot did she come from?!? This town isn't as normal as I thought it was... just like me to judge a book by it's cover...
"Yo Pinkie I'll have three super chocolate cupcakes and a chocolate chip cookie. What about you Torque?," Rainbow ordered, not even looking at the menu's set at our table.
"Uh, I'll take a slice of vanilla cake and a chocolate cupcake.," I blurted out with little thought.
"Okee-dokey-lokey! I'll be right back with your sweets! Faster than you can say 'breaking the fourth wall'.," the two toned mare responded. In a split second she was back with our food, "See I told ya! Bet you didn't even have time to say 'breaking'."
Dude, this filly is crazy, talks faster than the Wonder Bolts... "Thanks Pinkie! It looks awesome, as usual!," Raindbow said, interrupting my thoughts.
"Yeah, dude you are one fast chick, I mean you were barely gone a second dude!," I thanked her, half amazed and half grateful.
After she had stuffed her face with two of the three muffins, Rainbow looked up at me with stern eyes, "Kid I'll be honest, you are the fastest pegasi I've seen in awhile, but with broken bones, I don't think it's a good idea for you to be working."
"Hmph, I'm stronger than you think dude, there's a word for that kind of toughness...it's uhhh, it's like forti- something or another.," I said trying to remember the word my coach used to describe me.
"Alright, cool your wings egghead. But seriously, WCU isn't a walk in the park, it's really hard. You have to wake up before sun up, and be ready to work until near lunch. I'm just expressing a concern I have for you, I mean be my guest to prove me wrong.," she looked at me with empathy in her eyes.
"Look dude, I need a job. The harder and more time consuming it is, the better. I need to get away from my memor- I mean I need to get away from the boring atmosphere of a tiny room, can't stand being still for too long.," I had to stop myself from bringing up my memories...Rather think of anything but them...
