> Fluttershy Eats a Burger > by The_Light_Is_Dying > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Buying A Burger > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fluttershy stared gleefully at the small shop in front of her. Painted red with brick roofs, the old wooden shack used to be a small grocery store for convienences like chips and ice cream. But now, an elderly stallion named Greasy Jeff bought the for-sale building and made it into a delicious burger shop! Greasy Pony Burger Shop was the highest-selling burger store this side of the Macintosh Hills. Fluttershy licked her lips, thinking of the juicy, greasy burgers tucked onto a wheat seed bun. But Fluttershy also enjoyed the crisp, salty fries, the tasty and bubbly homemade soda, and the delicously cold custard desserts! She couldn't keep herself away from the Greasy Pony for a week without purchasing a burger. Fluttershy's hooves clicked and clacked on the sidewalk in front of the Greasy Pony. She pushed the old saloon-style doors open with one hoof while the other stepped forward. The retro-style resturaunt was buzzing with costumers. Old Greasy Jeff worked the counter while Chef Rose Pizza cooked and served the burgers. Greasy Jeff took notice of the yellow Pegasus in the doorway, her pink mane hanging delicately over one eye as she glanced at a burger that Rose Pizza dished out for a teal unicorn sitting in the back of the room. "Aye! 'Ello there, Fluttershy! What brings ya to the Greasy Pony? Another of your regulars?" Greasy Jeff asked the pretty mare. Fluttershy stared back at him, and switched her attention to the menu. There, on sale, was the first burger she had ever eaten. The Delicious Organic Burger! Made organically and not out of cute little critters! Fluttershy smiled at Greasy Jeff with a good idea for the perfect meal in her mind. "Actually, Greasy, I'd like the Delicious Organic Burger with Cinnamon Fries and a Strawberry Milkshake. Er, make the shake in medium size, if you don't mind." Fluttershy asked politely. Greasy Jeff was taken aback, as he thought about Fluttershy's first visit and the very first thing she'd ever ordered. Something that did not contain animals, obviously. Greasy Jeff nodded and yelled to Rose Pizza her order. Fluttershy silently said thanks, and waited politely for her order. When she received the meal, she carefully balanced it on her back, and gently walked home. All the way, she thought of her friends saying how amazing the Greasy Pony Burger Shop was. She thought of how hesitant and nervous she was, scared they wouldn't have organic non-animal meats. She thought of her joy packed in the first bite, and how delicious it was. It was hard for Fluttershy to realize all that was just one month ago. As soon as Fluttershy arrived home, she set the meal on the table and took a bite. In that one bite were the amazing memories of her first meal at Greasy Pony! > *BURGERY FLASHBACK* > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I'm not so sure, guys. What if they don't have organic meats? I don't eat animals!" Fluttershy said, nervously. She stared, afraidly, at the Greasy Pony Burger Shop, across the street. Twilight patted her on the back, while the others flew and walked their way over to the Burger Shop. Twilight hugged Fluttershy hopefully. She wanted her friend to enjoy the burgers just as much as she and the others did, but she wasn't going to force Fluttershy to try something she didn't want to. "They have something organic on the menu. I once ordered it. You can come if you want, but I'm not going to make you." Twilight said, once again hugging the shaking Fluttershy. Twilight ran off to the others, who were waiting patiently the whole time. Twilight glanced back at Fluttershy, who kindly waved a signal to tell her to go along with them. Fluttershy stared worriedly at the Burger Shop, but reluctantly, she made her way over there. A nice man whom her friends called 'Greasy Jeff' was speaking with Twilight and pals up front. Fluttershy nervously trotted over to them, glancing up at the old menu. Sure enough, she saw a Delicous Organic Burger for only twelve bits! Fluttershy awaited her turn in line. She stepped up to the old man, who quietly finished writing down Applejack's order. "Ello' there, Miss! Never seen ya 'round this place before! Anyway, what's ya order, sunshine?" The man asked. Fluttershy stared up at the menu, quickly selecting cinnamon coated fries and a strawberry milkshake to go with her burger, and laid out her twelve bits on the counter. "Hello there! I'm Fluttershy! I would like the Delicous Organic Burger with the Cinnamon Fries and a Strawberry Milkshake. P-please..." Fluttershy said, nervously counted her bits again. Greasy Jeff grabbed them up and put them in a saddlebag he wore. He yelled to a waitress, who also seemed to be the chef, Fluttershy's order. The mare quickly began to cook the food. Fluttershy waited for a measly ten minutes, and then her meal was handed to her conviently in a bag. Fluttershy said, quietly, "Thank you.." And she galloped off for home. > Conclusion (When Fluttershy Realizes She Forgot The Custard!) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fluttershy took a second bite, then a third bite, and then she gobbled up the burger in record speed. All that was left was the cinnamon coated fries and the strawberry milkshake. Fluttershy ate fry after fry, but she couldn't finish them all! She had a very sensitive digestive system and could not eat too much cinnamon. If she did, she could get ill. Fluttershy slurped down her milkshake as well. She was then finished with her meal. She was very happy. She had eaten a burger for the second time in a two weeks. THE SECOND TIME IN TWO WEEKS! Fluttershy loved the burgers so much she had to have one or two per week. Fluttershy just couldn't wait to dig into the homemade custard! She loved the custard because it was creamy and crisp with frost. It tasted so good! But then, just as Fluttershy went to grab the custard....it was gone! She realized that she had not bought any custard when she was at Greasy Pony. Fluttershy decided it was just another reason to order another burger, and she hurried off with her order all ready for Greasy Jeff! THE END!!! Woohoo!
