Who? Why? Where? WHAT?

The tour: part 1

Twilight and spike are taking me on a tour, kinda exited, kinda scared, mostly curious, they told me our first stop was a place called Sugar Cube Corner the town’s bakery, it sounds nice enough, but they told me to be prepared for anything,

“So why’d you tell me to be prepared?” I ask

“You’ll see” Spike replies, a visible smirk on his face, yup add ‘worry’ to the emotions list,

After some walking, we arrive at a place that looks almost like a weird gingerbread house that’s been splattered with chocolate “here we are,” Twilight says merrily,

i follow her into the small bakery, eyeing the decor as I pass I notice that there’s several tables scattered about, columns on the walls painted to resemble peppermint, a pink counter with an even pinker pony behind it, ponies seem to give me curious or confused glances as I walk, I try my hardest to act friendly,

I’m taken by surprise when the pony at the counter rushes up to me, a sincere and friendly smile like no other on her face, “Hi, I’ve never seen a pony like you before, I’m Pinkie Pie, but my friends call me Pinkie! What’s your name?” The pink pony says cheerfully,

“I’m... Ella.” I say simply, the pink pony’s smile grows brighter

“Cool! Ella Mc Ellerson!” Pinkie Pie giggles “We’re gonna be best friends!” I’m taken aback by this, but have no time to speak before the pink pony gasps “ohmygoshomygoshomygosh!” Pinkie Pie bounces, and confetti seems to come out of knowhere “I just had the best idea ever! A PARTY!” She announces

“Ok Pinkie, we really should be going,” Twilight forcibly pulls me out of the bakery before speaking “Heheh, maybe we should have told you about that...”

“YA THINK!?” I yell, Spike snorts, “Oh shut up!” Is all I can say “And Twilight, is she actually gonna throw a party?” I ask, Twilight nods better prepare for THAT,

“ON WITH THE TOUR” Spike yells

---

Carousel Boutique, that’s apparently where we’re going, “Alright, So a pony named Rarity lives here, I’m letting you know, she’s a tad over dramatic and can get a bit... carried away” Twilight says,

“Well alright then, sure wish you’d warned me about last time...” I say, a bit annoyed,

“Yeah, I know” Twilight replies “And...” Twilight shifts nervously “If you don’t mind me asking...” Twilight paws at the ground with her hoof, “What exactly... are you?” She finally says, I can tell she doesn’t like what she’s saying but I’m not really bothered by it,

“Is that all? I’m a human, from earth, not much to it” I say, she nods, clearly relieved that I didn’t take the question personal

“Welp, we’re here” Spike says, the Boutique is light blue, with pink and purple accents, the roof resembles a Carousel, and there’s oval windows at the front,

Before long, I’m walking into the shop, the foyer has a light colour scheme, with a checkers pattern floor, and there’s several doors,

“Rarity!” Twilight calls

“Just a moment Darling, I will be there in a jiffy!” Says a British voice from upstairs, before long, an Ivory mare with a curly violet mane and sapphire eyes is walking down the steps

“Ah, Twilight, it’s good to see yo-“ Rarity pauses and turns to look at me, she seems a bit confused but continues, “Oh, you brought... guests, well that’s... good” she seems unsure of the words she’s saying, but forces a smile anyway,

“Yes, Rarity, this is Ella, Ella this is my friend Rarity” Twilight says nervously,

“Hi.” Rarity says flatly,

“Heheh, uh, hi.” I say a bit nervous,

“Well then Er, Ella, A pleasure to meet you” Rarity says, before sticking her hoof out to me, I shake the offered hoof before going into silence “Ella, darling, would you excuse Twilight and I for a moment?” I nod before Rarity starts dragging Twilight in her magic toward the corner of the room

“Twilight, who exactly is she?” Rarity asks

“Eh, she’s an alien, no big deal”

“Ah well that settles it” Rarity says calmly, before she and Twilight walk back into the foyer

“Oh you’re back” I say

“Hello again” Rarity says much more calmly than before “Why don’t I show you some of my outfits?” She asks

“Well alright then” I say, before following her to a mannequin housing a short purple skirt, and small silver shoes, I was shown many more outfits that day, dresses, tuxedos, shirts, all modelled for horses, but I have to say, the craftsmanship is good.

Author's Note:

Sorry about the hiatus, I’m currently suffering from severe writer’s block so I hope you’ll be patient.

This is more of a question for the producers of the show, but how do you think the ponies know English? Did Queen Victoria want to found the colonies of Equestrialand and the Crystal Coast or something like that? Or would those redcoats have been fended off thanks to magic?

This is a good story but the chapters are way to short. Maybe you should break it up less? But good story. (*´꒳`*)

I’ll try, but really, the chapters are broken up this way mostly so I can be lazy...
