Before Ditzy's Eyes

by DerpyHD

Chapter I

Ditzy Doo was delivering letters, as any other day. The Pegasus ponies had kept most of the clouds out of the sky and the air was fine. She laughed as she flew through a cloud and shivered as the cold water droplets clung to her fur and mane. All in all, a beautiful day. But today Ditzy wasn’t delivering any old letter. No, she was delivering a letter to Soarin of the Wonderbolts. (Of course she’d met other famous ponies before, but she was always a secret fan of the Wonderbolts.) She knew she had to compose herself somehow, but there was something about meeting one of the Wonderbolts that would make anypony’s eyes grow in excitement. As she landed, she quickly shook her yellow mane to make it fall back into its normal position, took a deep breath to stop her uncontrollable shaking and knocked on the door. She looked around nervously for something to look at herself in; maybe a pool of water or something, but found nothing. Just as she was about to leave, she heard footsteps from the inside, and before she knew it, she was standing face to face with Soarin of the Wonderbolts.

“De-de-delivery for Mr Soarin?” Ditzy stuttered.

“That’s me,” replied a smiling Soarin.

“I’m just going to need you to si-sign he-here please,”

Oh Ditzy! She thought. Why do I always have to mess it up when it comes to these kinds of things?

“Of course, Ms Doo!” said Soarin. He sounded as if he were singing. Then he squinted his eyes and looked at Ditzy more closely.

“Is something wr-wrong, Mr Soarin?” she asked.

“I’m sorry, I was just looking at your beautiful mane. Did you do something to it?”

“No, no. It’s always been like this-“she stopped and shivered violently as a cold gust of wind blew and made the water on her body become colder than ever.

“Oh!” Soarin exclaimed, “Do come in! You look freezing!”

By now Ditzy was frantically looking for an excuse to escape. Not only was she scared to meet such a famous pony, now he was inviting her into his home! Ditzy couldn’t think of what to say, but decided that it was only polite that she accept.
