//------------------------------// // Making Friends? // Story: Burning Love // by Paw_Claw_Print //------------------------------// Campfire woke up to the smell of apple pie. "Song? Song?!" Campfire yelled. "Down here!" Song's voice woke up Campfire. Campfire looked down and saw Burning Song in front of a table with apple pie on a plate and another one on the other side nicely made. "You didn't need to do this," Campfire blushed at the thought of her getting up early just to make this for him. Song smiled and hummed a little song. That humming turned into singing. Campfire stopped eating and looked in shock as Burning Song kept on singing. She stopped and opened her eyes as she blushed. "O-Oh I didn't mean to keep singing! Sorry," Song was embarrassed. "What's wrong with it? It was beautiful!" Campfire said. She blushed,"I know it's my special talent, but I'm shy when I sing." Campfire looked at her flank and saw a music note in a piece of toast as her cutie mark. "Well, thanks for the food, now I'm going to go get some things I might be gone for a while," Campfire said as he put on his bags. Song smiled and waved her hoof to say good bye. As soon as he left she cleaned up and put her bags on. "Okay if your going to live her you need to make some friends... or at lest try," Burning Song said to herself. Burning Song walked out of her house and locked the door. She had to be sure to get home before Campfire did. She flew up and flew down the town. She passed an apple stand and saw an orange pony selling apples. "I should get some food for me and Campfire," Burning Song walked over to stand. "Howdy there partner, what can I do ya for?" The pony asked. "Um... I was looking for some apples that are freshly picked, please," Song answered. "We have all kinds. Say, I haven't ya around these parts before," The pony blurted out. Burning Song gulped and pointed to the apples she wanted. The pony put the apples in her bags. "I'm n-new to Ponyville, my name is Burning Song," Song smiled weakly. "My name's Applejack, nice to meet ya!" The orange pony smiled happly. Burning Song gasped, "Y-your Applejack!? You represent the element of honesty!" "Oh come on now, y'all don't need to be say'n that," Applejack said. Burning Song smiled, "How much are the apples?" Song got ready to get some bits from her bags. "Oh no need partner, on the house. Ya new to Ponyville and all," Applejack looked serious. Burning Song smiled and waved good-bye. She had just made a friend and got some free apples. Maybe this is her day. She trotted past a library and heard a crash. Song flew in to see a purple pony using magic to lift up a baby dragon. "SPIKE! I told you no playing we need to-" The purple pony was cut off by the baby dragon. "LOOK! We have somepony!" The dragon looked nervous. The purple pony looked at Song a smiled as she opened a pair of big purple wings. A pair of wings AND a horn that means she's an alicorn... AND that means she's a princess! "Nice to see you. Welcome to the Ponyville library! My name is Twilight Sparkle, how may I help you?" The purple pony turned from mad to happy in seconds. "I-I'm seeing if- wait Twilight... Twilight Sparkle... You represent the element of magic and your a princess!" Song bowed. Twilight looked around awkwardly. Both ponies heard a voice coming from outside. Campfire opened the door and saw Burning Song. "Oh there you are... I-I've b-been looking e-everywhere for y-you..." Campfire huffed. "What's wrong, Campfire?" Song asked running to his aid. Campfire huffed, "I thought somepony had kidnapped you because you weren't home when I got back and the door was locked." Burning Song's ears fell as she tried to pick him up. She flapped her wings and covered him up. "Oh no... Can I help you in any way?" Twilight asked sadly. "Oh, you could bring him to my house. Thank you, Princess!" Burning Song smiled as the sun shined on her eyes making a sparkle form in her eyes. Twilight gasped. "Is something wrong?" Burning Song asked. "O-Oh, it's nothing... come on we need to get him to your house," Twilight used her magic to lift the stallion. Campfire opened his eyes weakly, "Thank you, Song..." Everything went black.
