//------------------------------// // Chapter 1 // Story: A pony that I'm suppose to know // by MLPLOVERXOX //------------------------------// She thanked the Pegasus that took her to Ponyville. "Ponyville - here i come." Twilight was sitting on her chair in front of the Cutie map, Practicing magic. she suddenly received a letter from princess Celestia. "She's already here? Dear god, SPIKE!" she yelled. "What Twilight? I was getting my nap," complained Spike. "No time for that, Spike. She's here." Indigo Blue was standing in front of a cake shop, Her pet mouse, Broccoli, resting on her shoulder. The street's name was Sugarcube Corner. Cadence said that she'll get all the help she needs there. Suddenly, a pony ran out of the door and bumped into her. "Sorry! I'm just in a HUGE hurr-- Indigo Blue?" Indigo opened her eyes. "Pinkie Pie?" she said. Pinkie Pie looked at her. "You haven't changed a bit!" she said. "Nor did you!" said Indigo and giggled. "Wait... is that Broccoli?" Pinkie asked. "Yeah! I can't believe you recognized him!" said Indigo Blue. "How can i forget? this cutie-pie got me in trouble with Gummy!" she said. "Oh, i remember that day! I'm still very sorry!" laughed Indigo. Suddenly Pinkie's tail started twitching. "Oh no," she said. "What?" asked Indigo. Then, Unexpectedly, Twilight fell from the sky with spike,terrified, on her back. Pinkie's tail stopped twitching. "Oh hi Twilight. I guess you fell from the sky," Pinkie giggled. "Twilight?" asked Indigo. then she noticed the mare was an Alicorn. That was Twilight. "Twilight Sparkle?" she said. Twilight looked at her and then smiled. "Hi, Indigo Blue, a pleasure to meet you." "Hi..." said Spike, dizzy from the landing. "Oh wait! I'm late! I was in such a hurry! Later Indigo, Later Twilight!" said Pinkie and hopped away. "You know her?" asked Twilight. "Yeah, we grew up together. But honestly, How can you not know Pinkie Pie?" she answered. Twilight looked at Indigo. All three princesses said that Indigo was the most magical, spiritual and talented pony they ever seen, So Twilight assumed she was a unicorn. but no. she was an earth pony. "I'm so glad to meet you. Cadence always talked about how amazing you are, and so did shining armor when i first met him. They are so proud of you. I always thought about your amazing achievements and about how I or anypony else would never be close to being as amazing as you are. And spike... You have a statue. Kinda hard to miss it. I'm so happy meeting you two." she said. Then she bowed. She was unexpectedly polite and modest. "I guess i should be polite and ask you to come to my house?" asked Twilight. "That would be lovely." said Indigo and smiled. "Do you want me to carry your bag?" asked Spike. "Thanks Spike, but i can handle it." she said. They reached Twilight's castle. Twilight showed her around the castle, and she showed her where her room is. After a quick tour of the place, Twilight asked Indigo what she wanted to do. "I like to read in quiet places, in the nature." she said. Twilight was so surprised and satisfied from that answer. "You like reading books?" she asked. Indigo giggled. "Are you kidding me? Books are a huge part of me. i have just a brush in my bag, the rest are books. I live for books. I'm a very nerdy pony, Actually now when i'm thinking about it," she said. "Wow! I never knew that you like reading!" Twilight said. "Not just reading. Everything revolving around paper, pencils and words. That is what my cutie mark represents. one heart for writing, one for drawing and one for singing. But i think for now let's focus on bonding rather then talking about my cutie mark." They grabbed some books and read quietly near a pond in the Everfree forest. Now this, Is a quality pony right here. Thought Twilight. Indigo finished her books first. She was a really fast reader. Twilight finished her books while Indigo patiently waited for her. Then the two had a relaxed conversation. After a few hours Twilight decided to go back home. "And on the way, We'll meet my friends!" she said. "Oh, and welcome to Ponyville!" "Thanks!" said Indigo and smiled. Indigo liked Twilight. A friendly, polite and welcoming pony that completes the perfect princess image while being a cute,geeky and smart pony. "So, how is it in Manehatten?" asked Twilight. "Actually i'm planning on moving. The city is great, and i have a lot of friends there, but it's just not the place for a random, shy pony like me. I'm probably moving to The Crystal Empire, but i still haven't decided yet. How is it in Ponyville?" she asked. "Ponyville's great, I am proud to call it my home. I have amazing friends and I learn so much from them." Twilight said. "I can't wait to know the city a bit more." Indigo Blue said. They made it to Ponyville, and Twilight took her to a small cottage with a lot of grass, flowers and animals surrounding it. "Ahh, I remember this place. I don't remember why i was here though. I don't have the best memory..." said Indigo. Twilight didn't say anything, she just smiled and knocked silently on the door. The door opened, and a mare with yellow coat and light pink mane looked at them. "Oh, hello Twilight. Wait... who are you? I don't mean to be rude but,don't i know you?" said the mare in her quiet,low tune."You look very familiar as well. My name is Indigo blue. It's nice to meet you..." "fluttershy," she said. "sorry, I didn't hear you." said Indigo blue. "Her name is Fluttershy," said Twilight. "Fluttershy! that's why i know you! you helped me choose a pet!" she said and turned around, so she can see Broccoli. "Oh, I remember now. Hello Broccoli. I missed you. So, what brings you to Ponyville?" asked Fluttershy. "I'm related to Twilight, and i never met her up 'till today. I came here to get to know her." she said. "I'm happy you know each other. Goodbye Fluttershy. We have to get going." said Twilight. Twilight and Indigo wondered around town until they stumbled upon the famous Carousel Boutique. Indigo looked around and was amazed by the unique collection of dresses. "Hello and welcome to Carousel Boutique..." said a beautiful mare. "Oh twilight! What brings you here?" "Hey Rarity, I'm here to introduce you to my distant relative, Indigo Blue." "Distant relative?? You mean... royalty?" asked Rarity. Indigo Nodded. "Yep, Royalty she is Rarity," giggled Twilight. "Really? It's an honor to meet you! Do you need anything?" asked Rarity. "I actually don't like the royalty part of my family... Thank you for the offer though." said Indigo. Rarity smiled. "What a gem! Well if you need something, Rarity is at your service!" Rarity said. Indigo blushed. suddenly something ignited in Indigo's mind. Indigo tried to remember where she heard that name before. "Wait... Rarity? the same Rarity that designed those amazing dresses that were featured in Hoity Toity's boutique? That Rarity?" asked Indigo Blue excitedly. "Yes! Have you heard of me?" asked Rarity. "Heard of you? I love your work! You're so stylish yet so unique, I fell in love with those gowns as soon as I've seen them. I'm so happy to meet you. I didn't know you're friends with such of a famous and special designer, Twilight." she said. "You didn't? Well, wait until you meet the rest of my friends. I'm sure you'll recognize some of them." said Twilight. "It's always good talking to you Rarity. bye!" "Goodbye! Come back again!" Rarity called after them. "Who are the rest of your friends?" asked Indigo Blue. "Let's find out," said Twilight.
