Dear Apple Bloom,
I know that you won’t be getting this for a while, but I just can’t wait that long. I saw you! I wasn’t at the Crystal Empire, but I still saw you!
How, you may ask? Do you remember what I said a couple of weeks ago about how Manehattan was doing a lot of things for the Equestria Games, particularly in Time Square? Well, apparently they were putting up these large screens that could show what was happening at the Crystal Empire at any time. I’m not sure how it works, but it must be some sort of magic.
Since we couldn’t go to the Crystal Empire, my dad took Flo and me to Time Square so we could see the opening ceremonies of the Games. We got to see all the athletes from every town. Everypony cheered for Manehattan when they were announced and it was very interesting seeing the griffons when we saw them on screen. But I was waiting for Ponyville, and they finally showed you. I was so excited that I almost fell off my dad’s neck since he was holding me up. It was awesome seeing you and Sweetie Belle shout “Ponyville Forever” and then Scootaloo riding through that hoop on her scooter. Your routine was a bit shorter than what you described. I didn’t hear anything about the three pony races in Equestria living in harmony together and all that jazz. I still enjoyed seeing you though.
Then we got to see the torch get lit. It seemed to take forever with that dragon. Was it the same dragon I saw at Ponyville? It certainly looked like him. Ponies in Time Square were really getting annoyed after a few minutes, but then he finally did it, and there were tons of streamers and confetti flying all over Time Square. It was amazing!
I hope you have fun up there, it certainly looked like it. I wish I could be there, but I can’t. Please tell me all about what you did when you get back. I’m waiting.
Your cousin,
Babs
