Chapter 2

Acceptance
Chapter 2 : Culture Shock
Part 1
"Thanks again, Pinkie Pie." Crux said, walking out of Sugarcube Corner with a doughnut he had bought and the Sugarcube Corner free complimentary cupcake.
"You're welcome again too!" Pinkie Pie giggled from behind the candy-coated counter. "Have a nice day!"
As he reached the door Crux began to reply with, "I'll tr-"
"Twitchy twitcha twitch!" Pinkie shouted loudly while holding her rapidly twitching tail.
"What?"
"Just watch out for stuff falling from the sky, silly." The pink pony replied, as if Crux had just asked her how to spell the letter a.
"...alright...bye." He managed to say out of complete and utter confusion.
"Now which one should I eat first?" The griffon thought to himself, eyeing both treats with hungry eyes. "I pick you, you little cup-"
"CUTIE MARK CRUSADER MONSTER HUNTERS, YAY!"
"...what?" Was all Crux could manage before three fillies landed on him from nowhere, smashing the green-iced cupcake into his chest plumage and throwing the doughnut into a puddle of mud.
"YEAH, GOTCHYA!" One of the three fillies shouted, grappling one of his wings.
"Hey, get o-"
"WEEEEEE! GET ALONG LITTLE PONY!" Another filly wearing a red ribbon yelled, while jumping on the miserable griffon's back.
"Agh, that hurts!" Crux managed out a muffled complaint.
"ARE THEY HERE YET, DID WE GET 'EM?" The orange pegasus asked excitedly, causing all of them to rapidly check their flanks.
"No, awwwwwww!" All three of them cried.
"Well ah thought we'd get 'em for sure this time." The yellow filly pouted.
"GIRLS!" An angry white unicorn shouted, running towards the ponypile. "What in Equestria are you doing to this poor-"
"uuugh, please..." Crux muttered.
"This poor... Oh, oh my." The fashionable unicorn slipped out of her fury when she realized that the pile didn't entirely consist of ponies.
"...p-please..."
"Oh, I'm so sorry about that!" She said ,regaining her composure and shooing the fillies off of him.
"...p-please my tail..."
"What was that dear? I can't hear you."
"...you're standing on...my tail..." Crux squeeked out.
The pomp pony jumped off of the tail in a flash. "Are you okay Mister...."
"Crux." He replied picking himself off of the ground and remains of the once delicious cupcake.
"...Crux! Well, what a beautiful name for such a forgiving griffon." She continued, grinning widly.
"Uh-huh..." Crux sighed as he stared at where his doughnut had found its soggy grave.
"Oh my! Was that your lunch?"
"*sigh* yeah, pretty much. I guess I'll go get another." He said sadly.
"Oh no no no no no no no no NO!" The curly maned unicorn was almost shouting. "I'll take you to lunch at a real restaurant to make up for this." She waved a hoof towards the three fillies trying to hide behind each other.
"Wow, thank you that's grea-"
"After we get you cleaned up at my Boutique that is."
"...wait, what?" And with that Crux was dragged to Carousel Boutique with three fillie running behind shouting "CUTIE MARK CRUSADER GRIFFON CLEANERS, YAY!"

:fluttercry: Yeah, I'm a bad brony. I usually say :trollestia: "I'm gonna start writing!" and then Fallout Equestria updates, any other fic updates, new anime, going places, school, or I just get lazy. :derpytongue2:
Although I am usually like :raritydespair: "I need to write more!"

So far I'm liking it. I'm liking how it's a nice quick read:pinkiehappy:. I just finished reading It's a Dangerous Business, Going Out Your Door, and it was easily taking me like 2 hours to finish some of the chapters which made reading it a chore sometimes.......god I'm a slow reader:twilightsheepish:

Keep it up good work so far don't think Ive come across another griffon fict like this good work on the Mort reference :rainbowkiss:

Keep up the work hows the next chapter going so far :rainbowhuh:

:raritydespair: Not so well... Writersblock+school+everything pony= me not writing as much as I'd like, also I'm trying to make the upcoming chapters longer.
But, and this is a big butt, I'll try to get out the second part of chapter 2 out before Skyrim completely rapes my schedule in November.

15438 Well take all the time you need.........wait Skyrim..........November...........deargod.png......My life begins again in November :rainbowkiss:

15438 but really take your time i know if a writer tries to rush a story it usually comes out in a lesser quality than the writer intended............sits at computer and waits for halo 4 and Skyrim:twilightsheepish:

Yet another story shot down by inactivity. :fluttercry:

i'm just glad to find a story involving griffons that arn't gilda

How...

...did you get so many character tags? :rainbowhuh:

The max is five!

15438 dear god... How did you get this many tags!? I tried six, but it wouldn't let me, yet you get...
1...2...7...9...16!?!?!?
Jeez!

How did you get all of those tags? Did you hack the site or something? :rainbowhuh:

Are you going to put this on cancel?

I like this premise, I'm assuming that what cause Crux to become outcast from griffon society will be mentioned. You have a good set up, I'm just hoping your follow through can keep building up the momentum until the climax of the story.

HOW THE HAY DID YOU GET ALL OF THOSE CHARACTER TAGS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! THE MAX TAGS IS FIVE!!!! FIIIIIIVE!!!!!!!!!!! 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! F! I! V! E!

FFFFFFFFFFIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVVVVVVVVEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!5.
