Operation Brohoof

Partying Pinkie Pie Style

Soundwave had seriously hoped that "Pinkie Pie" was joking about throwing a party for him. He had just recently befriended Vinyl Scratch and Octavia, and he wasn't really certain if the rest of Ponyville was willing to accept him just yet.

Unfortunately, as Soundwave learned that evening, Pinkie Pie wasn't joking at all. She threw a "Welcome to Ponyville Party" for Soundwave, which, due to the Decepticon's large size, was held mostly outside.

"That Pinkie Pie sure knows how to throw a party!" Vinyl Scratch said.

"I can see that." Soundwave said, uncertain what to make of this "development". If he had things his way, this party wouldn't be taking place right now. Alas he had no such say.

"Lighten up a little will ya? Pinkie Pie's parties are the best!" Vinyl Scratch said "This could be the perfect opportunity for you to make some more friends."

"And who said I wanted to make friends?" Soundwave asked.

"You're an open book Soundwave." Vinyl Scratch teased "I can sense that you were lonely prior to befriending me and Octy. And I can tell that you truly want to have more friends."

"Even if that was the case I wanted to do so on my own terms, not like this." Soundwave protested. He was already noticing the odd looks that the townsponies were giving him, and they did not look very friendly.

"So, just give it a try." Octavia encouraged, she had long gotten use to Pinkie Pie's many parties, and had learned to survive even the craziest of them. "I'm sure that if you just did your best to make a good impression the townsfolk would grow to like you."

"Octy's right. What've you got to lose?" Vinyl Scratch asked.

"As I seem to recall, that sort of logic always doomed the humans." Soundwave said. He could remember that such a thing was supposedly called "Murphy's Law", and that it stated "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong."

"Did someone say humans?!" a voice enthusatically asked. A moment later a mint green unicorn appeared in front of Soundwave. On her flanks rested a cutie mark of a golden lyre.

"Well I didnt', but Soundwave over here did." Vinyl Scratch said.

"You know about humans?!" the unicorn asked, turning her attention to Soundwave.

"I do. Why do you ask?" Soundwave asked, unsure of what else to say.

"I've always believed that humans exist, but no one will ever believe it!" the unicorn explained "Oh, by the way, the name's Lyra. Lyra Heartstrings to be precise. Pleased to meet you Mister..."

"I am Soundwave." Soundwave said "I am.... delighted to meet you Lyra Heartstrings."

"Just call me Lyra, everyone does." Lyra said "Well, except for my best friend Bon-Bon. But that's different." Lyra then seemed to make a rather high pitched noise, and smiled innocently. Soundwave got the feeling that perhaps there was more to this "Bon-Bon" then just being Lyra's friend. Now that he thought about it, this town seemed to heavily female dominated in comparison to Detroit. In that city it was the males that always seemed to be everywhere.

"I see you befriended Lyra." Octavia said "You probably wouldn't believe me if I told you that she and I use to be roommates in Canterlot. But it's true."

"What led to the two of you spliting up?" Soundwave asked.

"I don't really know. I just figured life in Canterlot wasn't for me." Octavia said "I still couldn't believe it when Lyra moved in across the street. She still won't tell why she did so."

"Very interesting." Soundwave said. At some point he woul have to speak to Lyra, and see if he could pry that secret out of her.

The party went off without a hitch, for quite a while anyway. Then there was trouble.

"Why don't you watch where you're going you big bucket of bolts?!" a cyan pegasus mare snapped.

"I am sorry. I did not intend to hurt you." Soundwave apologized.

"Yeah right! You're like six hooves tall!" the pegasus mare snapped back.

"Rainbow Dash! Will you kindly stop picking a fight with that...whatever that thing is?" Applejack scolded.

"But Applejack he tried to crush me with his gaint legs!" Rainbow Dash said "Besides! He started it!"

"I don't care who started it! I'm finishing it!" Applejack said sternly "Now you'd best turn around and apologize! Don't make me use my rope, cause I will."

"You wouldn't!" Rainbow Dash said.

"Try me!" Applejack said.

Rainbow Dash sighed. "I'm sorry." she said "I guess my temper got the best of me, again. Just, don't sneak up on me next time. You know, give me a little warning before you step. I don't wanna be a pony pancake!"

"Apology accepted Rainbow Dash." Soundwave said "And you have my word as a Decepticon that I will not harm you ever again."

The instant the word Decepticon was spoken there was a tense silence. Aside from Vinyl Scratch and Octavia no one knew what a Decepticon was. But considering it had the word deception in it, as well as con, it did not sound like a very friendly term.

Soundwave tried to bring the situation under control before it esclated. "What I meant to say was" but he was too late. Now everypony in Ponyville was starring at him. And he did not like it. "Scrap." he muttered.
