"Pinkie!" a voice shook the tree, making it's visitor's go completely silent. "This may not be the exact time for that."
A white unicorn paraded into the house, followed by Spike. Spike seemed to be daydreaming at the time and crashed into the unicorn when she stopped. "Hello, Darlings." she said to her friends.
"Rarity, just in time." Twilight Sparkle announced. "Here she is." Twilight Sparkle motioned towards the frightened earth pony who was trying to escape from Pinkie's endless stream of talking.
"Hello, darling." Rarity held out a hoof to the fearful pony. "My name is Rarity, I happen to be a fashion designer." She took the novelty time of touching her hair with a hoof. "What's your name?"
The question came up once more. The pony never had a name before, just a serial number. It would be awkward to say one's name was 512342. "I have to come up with something" the pony started a mental breakdown. Names. Names. Aperture. No. Song.... Serenade? Song Serenade. Good enough. The pony stuttered, hoping it's voice would sound natural; instead of the robotic voice that was hardwired into her old body. "M-my name is S-Song Serenade".
"Song Serenade. What a lovely name darling!" Rarity complemented Song.
"I've heard awesomer." An eavesdropping pegasus remarked, flying over Song.
"Rainbow Dash, have you ever heard of being nice?" Rarity remarked.
"Some times awesome beats nice. Like Daring Do does in the book Th-" Rainbow dash was cut off mid sentence.
"Girls. Ah reckon we should be helping the feller instead of frightening her" Applejack pointed towards Song, who was in fact cowering in a corner of the library.
Rarity stepped forward to try and help Song feel more comfortable, before gasping. "She has a musical cutie mark! What if she's famous? What if she knows Sapphire Shores or Fleur De Lis?" Rarity started to roll off the possibilities in her mind. "Her name is something to do with music! What if she's a prodigy?"
Song cocked her head. What is a Fleur De Lis have to do with music? she asked herself. She only saw the french sign a few times in all her time back at Aperture Laboratories. The door shutting broke her train of thought.
"I'm sorry I'm late girls, Angel insisted on a snack..." The pegasus told them, in a very soft tone of voice.
"Its okay Fluttershy, I'm glad you could make it though." Twilight Sparkle said to her friend.
"Umm, Where is it?" Fluttershy asked Twilight.
Twilight Sparkle pointed to the corner of the room. "She's over there, although she seems to be as quiet as you are."
Fluttershy started to make her way over to the new pony. Song; who was aware of the new pony turned her head to get a closer look at the pony. Her red eyes gleamed in the sunlight. Fluttershy, stared back at Song for a second before letting out a squeal of surprise and fear and.quickly backing away.
"Just great." Rainbow Dash remarked, from above. She seemed to have at herself down to the Daring Do books. "We have a pony who is in a breakdown over popularity, a new pony who is quiet, and a pony who is scared of that pony. To top that all off, I'm out of new Daring Do books to read."
During all the events that happened, Song was reviewing her memories. She hoped that if she was to leave she would find her way home. "I think I will be leaving now.." She announced, getting up and shakily heading for the door.
"Now now, Sugarcube. You don't look well enough to travel." Applejack remarked.
Song hid her loss of pride under her mane. "It probably won't be a long journey back... He couldn't have done much damage"
Twilight Sparkle stepped forwards. "Do you have any friends around here that you could stay with?"
Song thought of making the witty remark of 'What is here?' but instead she shook her head. She never really had true friends, just other turrets she was paired with to shoot down any sign of life or to 'sing' with.
Pinkie Pie, who finally started up again jumped right in front of Song "I have an idea! I can be your friend from Ponyville!"
"Pinkie. You can hang out with her later. For now she needs a place to stay to regain her strength to travel back to where she is going." Twilight said, Applejack nodding in agreement.
Rarity snapped out of her earlier state. "I could take on the darling, perhaps set her up with a new performance outfit too?"
Twilight Sparkle shook her head. "I'm sorry Rarity, but I think she needs a quieter place. Opalescence might not like a new pony in her house."
"Well she can't walk on clouds so I'm out." Rainbow Dash took to the sky and left the library, a breeze messing up Rarity's main.
"You're going to get it Rainbow Dash." Rarity said, motioning a hoof towards her hair offender's direction.
"Pinkie's place is out of it too, due to the Cake's Twins. I don't think Song will be able to cope with foals under the stressful mood she has been in." Twilight Sparkle Announced.
Pinkie's face scrunched up, turning into a frown. "Aww"
"Don't worry Pinkie, you will be able to speak with her before she leaves, I'm sure of it." Twilight Sparkle reassured her usually energetic friend.
"Ahm sorry Twai. Mac and Ah are going to be hard at work, for the next Cider Season. We won't have the time to care for her." Applejack apologized.
"All right then. That leaves Fluttershy" Twilight turned to the yellow pegasus.
"B-but Twilight, did you see her eyes?" Fluttershy asked Twilight.
"They're red. Mine are purple, Rainbow's are magenta. Red is hardly unusual..." Twilight Sparkle offered.
"T-they glow" Fluttershy argued, in a tiny voice. Her wings flapped wildly, as if she wanted to fly away and hide somewhere safe.
"There is no logical explanation of them glowing." Twilight turned to Song who was just waiting for the arrangement's to be made. She waved a hoof at Song's eyes. "See? Normal."
"Bu--" Fluttershy started once more.
"But nothing. Shes just a stressed, lost pony who needs a shelter. Please Fluttershy, you're her only hope. If anything does happen you have Angel and what's-his-name to look after you."
Fluttershy's wings drooped to the floor as she turned around, defeated. "Fine."
Fluttershy left the library. "His name's Harry",she said, directed at Twilight.
Song followed her with no remarks to say. 'Finally I can see where on Earth I am.' Song thought to herself.
The former Turret had no idea how wrong her thought was.
