"We should go. Thanks." Skittles said.
"Oh, um...bye...nice meeting you." Fluttershy said.
"See ya 'round guys." Rainbow Dash saluted and flew off.
"Yeah, bye." Feather Breeze waved at Rosebud, who nervously smiled back.
.....
"Okay, ponies! Right over here is Sweet Apple Acres." Pinkie bounced as she lead the group up to an apple tree orchard. They could hear three voices arguing inside the barn. When they looked inside they saw three fillies.
"Ah'm gonna get mine first!" 
"Ha! You're on Applebloom! I'll get mine waaaaay before you do!"
"But Scoots, how are you going to that if you can't fly yet?" 
Just then two other ponies and a small green and purple dragon walked over.
"Girls, stop it this instant! I will have no rough housing. Now we have guests here so behave." One pony said.
"Sorry Rarity." They apologized and they all walked over to the newcomers.
"Howdy y'all. You two must be the new folks here. Ah see Pinkie's given ya a tour. Mah name's-" The orange pony said.
"Applejack. Beep beep beep. And yer Rarity." Skittles pointed to the white unicorn. 
Rarity gasped. "You've heard of me?!?!" She rushed over and faced Skittles. "Tell me everything you know about me. I must know. All I heard was good things, the glorious things! But wait! What if they've said things behind my back! Oh the horror!" She put up her hoof to her face and pretended to faint. 
"All I heard is that yer one of the most well known ponies in Equestria and that ya've done some pretty heroic things. You've also defeated many villains and have a shop here in Ponyville and have designed many outfits for the famous ponies, including the princesses. And that just was a summary from the newspaper. They gave you a pretty good review." Skittles said. 
"Really?" Rarity gasped again.
"Well have you heard about me and my awesome motor skills?" The small orange pegasus fluttered her wings. "I'm Scootaloo." She said.
"Or me?" The little white unicorn asked. 
"Er me?" The tiny yellow earth pony said with a huge smile.
"I bet you've heard of me. I'm Spike!" The baby dragon pointed to himself.
"Nope sorry. I wish I had. You fillies seem real nice. So d'you Spike." Skittles commented. "I'm Skittles and this is Rosebud."
"This is my dear sister Sweetie Belle and her friends Applebloom and Scootaloo." Rarity introduced.
"So, what brings you two around these parts?" Applejack asked.
"Oh, you know. Just the usual. Got tired of the city, so we moved here." Rosebud answered.
"Yeah, ah've done that too." A.J. smiled at Skittles and Rosebud. Both were looking so tired. She figured that it was because of Pinkie Pie's nonstop talking. "Why don't ah find ya too a place ta sleep. Its almost dark anyway. Where would ya like stay?"
"Oh! Nearly forgot 'bout that! Anywhere's fine." Skittles said kindly.
"Ooo! I know the perfect place for you! Come with me!" Rarity said as lead them out of the barn. "Pinkie, Spike, could you be a dear and watch the Crusaders for me and Applejack?" 
"Okey Dokey!" Pinkie smiled. The Crusaders, Spike, and her waved as the group walked back to Ponyville.
.....
"So where are you taking us?" Rosebud asked.
"Well, using my keen eyes I saw your cutie marks. I saw that, you Rosebud, have a coffee cup as your cutie mark. So I figured you could use Beans n' Green the coffee shop here in Ponyville. And I noticed that Skittles seems like an artist to me. Especially since she has that artistic heart and is that paint in your mane dear?" Rarity asked Skittles.
"No, it's naturely like that. I was born with it." Skittles answered. It was the closest thing to Rainbow Dash's.
"Oh thank goodness. If was paint it would ruin your beautiful mane, dear." Rarity sighed in relief.
