Ponyville...

Today was the eve of the Summer Sun Celebration in ponyville, everypony was getting ready for Celestia's arrival including a certain yellow pegasis who had a pink main and tail, she was currently busy with her little birds practicing to sing for the Summer Sun Celebration.

Fluttershy was talking to her birds. ''Ok everypony.'' The shy pegasis spoke in a calm manner. ''We need to practice If we're going to show everypony how great you'll sound, we don't want to disappoint the princess.'' she stopped before continuing. ''N-not that your bad singers or anything. Now let's start, a one-'' Before Fluttershy could finish a ''ZAP'' noise was heard alone with a bright light and startled Fluttershy and her birds who flied away, Fluttershy coward in her main afraid of what that was, but then she heard a grunting noise, she looked up through her main and something sticking out of the dirt, it seemed to be a pony who got himself stuck in the ground she didn't know how but she felt concerned for the pony's wellbeing so she trotted up to a bush just to see if he's ok, she saw it was an orange stallion with a blue shirt and two buttons and with a flattop and a black tail.

His cutie mark was an open book with a sword and a pencil as an X shape that was between the book, Fluttershy was confused about his cutie mark and what it meant, maybe he's a map writter or something.

Then she saw the stallion pull his head out with a grunt, Fluttershy duct her head down in the bush not wanting to be noticed by him, he is a stranger after all, and she doesn't know him.

She then hears him say ''Man, that entrance was a real headache.'' She could hear that he sounded a bit nice but still didn't let her guard down, she looked up a bit to see that the pony also had a black main that looks like it hasn't been groomed and dark green eyes. He rubs his head until he sees his hooves he looked at them as if he was seeing them for the first time. ''Woah...'' He said in amazement as he looks himself over. ''This is trippy... So, the machine actually worked? No way.'' He said, Fluttershy felt confused on what was he talking about, she then saw him struggling to walk as he tries to put one hoof after the other. ''How do they do this, this is a lot harder than I expecte-'' He then trips on a rock and falls on his face, he tries pushing himself back up and barely falls again.

Fluttershy didn't know what he was doing, it's like he was taking his first steps, but shouldn't he already know how.

Fluttershys train of thought was interrupted when she heard something coming from behind her. ''Hello.'' She shrieked with the surprise from behind and jumped from the bush where she can now see the stallion right Infront of her.

He smiled and said ''Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to scare you, it just looked like you were zoning out there for a bit.'' Fluttershy just looked down to her hoofs avoiding making eye contact while hiding in her main, He just kept on smiling and mumbled. ''Wow... It's really you.'' Fluttershy didn't know what he meant by it but she still looked down. ''My name is Benjamin, Benjamin Amezcua.'' He said smiling, he then thought for a second and said. ''What's your name?'' Fluttershy has never heard of a name like that before nether did she know what 'Amezcua' means, maybe it's foreign, she barely looked at him and said. ''I'm Fluttershy...

The pony known as Benjamin smiles and says. ''Nice to meet you fluttershy!'' Fluttershy looked surprised, nopony can really understand her when she talks like that, and yet he understands her perfectly. Benjamin noticed this. ''I have very good hearing.'' He said with a goofy smile, Fluttershy giggled at that before stopping and puts a hoof on her mouth, thinking she might have offended him she hides behind her main again, Benjamin saw this and gave a warm smile. ''It's all right, I like to make peo- I mean ponies laugh, it's what I like to do.'' He said, Fluttershy looked up and smiled at that,

She looks at his cutie mark and says. ''Is that what your cutie mark means?'' Benjamin looks at his flank and says. ''cool... Um, I'm pretty sure the book means that I'm a great storyteller and the pencil means that I love to write story's, as for the sword it means that I love to go on adventures and help people in need.'' Benjamin said proudly, Fluttershy couldn't help but rase a brow at that, how can a pony have three talents in one cutie mark? It sounds pretty rare to be true but ether way Fluttershy smiled at that. ''That sounds very interesting, that you have three talents I mean, and it sounds very nice of you to help others.''

''Thanks! I'm gonna go check the town out, maybe I'll make even more new friends like you.'' Benjamin said happily, but Fluttershy was a bit speechless that he called her as his friend, she didn't have a lot of friends except Rainbow Dash, but he just met her and he's already accepting her as a friend, Fluttershy was still speechless until saying. ''W-what do you mean by friend like you, are you asking to be friends? N-not that it matters or anything it's just that we just met and you're already calling me a friend.'' She said a little nervously, Benjamin just simply smiled and said. ''Well, aren't we friends? We have been having a nice conversation and you have been talking to me more clearly than before.''

''Oh...''Fluttershy felt a little nervous when he said that, but Benjamin spoke up. ''We are friends, right?'' He said hopefully.

Fluttershy thought for a moment before saying. ''W-well... If you want, I guess that's fine...'' She said still avoiding eye contact, Benjamin's face lit up. ''Thanks Fluttershy! I'm glad to be friends with you.'' He said.

Fluttershy still not looking at him said. ''Um... Your welcome.''

''Well it was really nice meeting you, bye!'' Benjamin said trotting pass Fluttershy as she said. ''You too...

Fluttershy felt a little bad for not speaking up to him but she felt a little better when he turn his head back to her and nodded, she felt happy that he heard her now she could get back to what she was doing, she still had a few questions in her head like where did he come from, why did he act surprised to see himself and why did he want to be friends with her?

She'll just have to find out in the future...

Benjamin's POV...

Benjamin was walking down the streets of Ponyville adsorbing the scenery in wonder, this is a dream come true to Benjamin because he has never been to Ponyville before nether has he ever seen it in person and now here he is, He was more happy to finally meet Fluttershy for the first time and even more happier to actually be friends with the shy pony. She was his second favorite character after all, his first favorite is Twilight Sparkle but of course he would also want to meet the rest of the main six so he was heading to his next destination, Town Hall.

You could say that today is the best day of his life.

Since he knows his way around, he finally saw the tall building before him, he gave a big smile and trotted up to the doors... wait, the doors...

Benjamin frowned at the doors and looked at his hooves, it took him a few minutes to figure out walking with for legs and yet he forgot that he couldn't open doors because... you know.

He try's pushing it with his head but to no avail, he then tries to push with his forelegs but still won't budge. ''Alright door we both know that I'm trying to get pass you and yet you won't stinking budge!'' He said in annoyance, then he thought of something that might work, he trots backwards when he was ten feet away from the door, he then goes full trot to the door to try and ram it... Until the door magically opened itself.

Benjamin's eyes widened and went right pass the door, he tried to stop but he tripped instead he started rolling down the red carpet, he stopped in the middle of the hall with his eyes spinning, he heard a voice that sounded awfully familiar to him. ''Oh my goodness darling! Are you ok!?'' The mare said concerned for him, He could barely make out the pony that was Infront of him, she had a white coat, purple main and tail and was a unicorn.

Benjamin recognized this mare and said. ''R-Rarity?'' The white mare known as Rarity looked at him with wide eyes and said. ''How do you know my name?'' Benjamin realized his mistake and quickly said. ''Uh... Lucky guess...'' He said nervously, Rarity didn't look convinced, but she didn't think about as she looked at him. ''Anyway, are you ok darling? You just came bolting through that door when I opened it.'' Benjamin looked at her and realized he was talking to Rarity, he quickly got up and dusted himself off.

''Oh, sorry, I was actually trying to get inside but I couldn't get through the door.'' He said with a sheepish grin, rarity looked at him seriously. ''Why didn't you just use your magic.'' Rarity said obviously, Benjamin felt confused, what did she mean by magic, she was looking at the top of his head, he did the same and his eyes widened when he saw that he has a horn on his head, he silently said. ''Awesome... I mean... well, I've been having a headache lately and that's why I've been having a hard time doing magic... Heh, heeh.'' Benjamin chuckled nervously, Rarity looked at him. ''You should really get a doctor, darling. And I don't think that was a very smart thing of you to try and force the door open, you could've caused a more serious injury to make your head even worst.'' Rarity said, Benjamin blushed in embarrassment and sheepishly rubbed the back of his head. ''Yeah, sorry about that...'' Benjamin said.

''It's all right, at least you didn't hit your head again. Now is there anything you need darling?'' Rarity said, Benjamin thought why he was here and then remembered. ''Have you seen a lavender unicorn with a violet, purple and pink main and tail, and with dark purple eyes? Oh, and has a purple baby dragon that has a crush on you?'' Benjamin asked, Rarity looked at him dumbfounded. ''I think you might have indeed hit your head... As for your question, no I have not seen a lavender unicorn in your description. Nor have I seen a baby dragon.'' Rarity said. ''That has a crush on you?'' Benjamin finished.

Rarity rolled her eyes as she turns back to finish working. ''I'm not sure if this pony is a friend of yours but she hasn't been here, now if you'll excuse me, I have to get these decorations ready for the Summer Sun Celebration.'' Rarity said patently to the stallion, Benjamin smiled and asked. ''Can I help?''

Rarity looked at him. ''Why that's very nice of you to ask, but unfortunately, I do not need help at the moment, but thank you for asking darling.'' Rarity said smiling at the stallion, he gave a smile back. ''Ok Rarity, it was nice talking to a friend.'' Benjamin said, Rarity looked at him with a raised brow. ''Friend? You do understand that I just met you, right?'' Rarity said, but Benjamin just kept that grin on his face. ''I know, but like I always say. The more friends the marrier.'' Benjamin said, Rarity looked at him quizzically but shrugged it off. ''Well, I suppose...'' She said, Benjamin beamed at her with happiness.

''Great! Oh, I'm Benjamin by the way. Nice talking to you Rarity.'' Benjamin said, Rarity looked at him confused. ''Huh, Benjamin... I don't think I heard of such a name, but it sounds very nice. Good meeting you to Benjamin.'' Rarity said, Benjamin smiled at her and was about to leave until he turned back to her. ''Hey Rarity, one last thing.''

''Yes darling?'' Rarity asked. ''I suggest you pick the red sparkly ribbons, I think sparkle always does the trick.'' Benjamin said, Rarity looked at him with wide eyes, she probably didn't know that he had a taste for fashion as well. Rarity blinked a few times. ''W-well yes,.. I suppose it does. Very nice meeting you Benjamin.'' Rarity said, Benjamin nodded with a ''Mmm, hmm.'' and left the room.

Rarity's POV...

Rarity looked at where Benjamin was at and couldn't help but smile, it was nice to meet a pony with a taste for fashion. ''Such an odd pony... Great taste in fashion though.'' Rarity said as she went back to decorating, she did wondered why such a headache would block somepony's magic. But she just shrugged as she went back to work, but one thing in her mind was for sure.

That was a very strange pony?

Ponyville...

Benjamin's POV

Benjamin kept on walking through the outskirts of town, enjoying himself in every way he can. He started hearing a whistle and... screaming? He looked around but he couldn't find were the sound was coming from, the whistle and screaming started getting louder and louder by the second, he then hears somebody yell out. ''LOOK OUT BELOW!!!"

Benjamin then looked up behind him and then. ''BOOM!!!'' Something collided with Benjamin as he was pushed back into a puddle as he and the mysterious mare get all wet, his head was spinning as he said. ''Not... Again...'' He felt a heavy weight on top of him, he looked up and saw a blurry rainbow main. The mare looked at him and chuckled nervously. ''heeh, heh, uh... Sorry about that.'' She said, as she got off of him.

Benjamin started to gain his sight back as he saw somepony with a rainbow main and tail, a cyan coat, and magenta eyes and had wings. He once again knew who she was as he mumbled. ''Rainbow Dash?...''

Rainbow Dash had a confused face, until that face turned into a grin. ''The one and only!'' She said proudly to herself.

Benjamin got back up still all wet and saw it was indeed her, he smiled. ''Huh, it really is you.'' Benjamin said in amazement.

''Well, duh, of course it's me, who else could it be.'' Rainbow Dash said, as she Shaked all the wet mud off her, she looked at him and saw she got more mud on him but still with a grin on his face, she snickered. ''Oops, sorry. Let me try to fix that up for ya.'' She said, Benjamin realized what she meant by that.

She flew over to a cloud and brought it over to Benjamin, She then jumps on it making it rain over him. After she was done she peaks over and sees Benjamin all soaked and wet. She snickered. '' he, he, sorry umm, I know how about this.'' Rainbow Dash then starts spinning around Benjamin like a tornado. ''My very own passionate rainbow dry!'' She said as she was done drying Benjamin off, she then floats back down. ''No no, don't thank me, your very much welcome.'' She said until seeing what she did to Benjamin, his hair was all puffed up looking a lot like a hippy, he was a little bit shocked but then he saw Rainbow Dash trying to hold in her laughter, she couldn't hold it any longer as she started busting out laughing.
''BAHAHAHAHA!!!'' Benjamin then looks into the puddle and saw his reflection, when he saw himself, he couldn't help but laugh with Rainbow Dash.

Now with Rainbow Dash and Benjamin on the ground laughing there flanks off, Benjamin said in-between laughs. ''-GASP- talk about -GASP- deja -GASP- vu!!'' He said still laughing, a few minutes later the laughter started to dive down, Rainbow Dash got up first. ''Wow! Ha ha, that was hilarious! Oh, and sorry for crashing into you like that.'' Rainbow Dash said, Benjamin got back up. ''It's cool. I thought it was pretty hilarious too, I'm Benjamin, nice to finally meet you, Rainbow Dash!'' Benjamin said happily, Rainbow Dash flew to him. ''So you heard of me?!'' She asked, Benjamin just smirks. ''I guess you can say that.'' He said.

''Well, it's nice to meet a fan once in a while.'' Rainbow Dash said flexing her wings. ''So, your here in ponyville for the Summer Sun Celebration.'' She asked, Benjamin nods. ''Yep, and I'm also trying to make some new friends here in ponyville.'' Benjamin said. ''By the way, how come you were falling, aren't you really good at flying?'' Benjamin asked, Rainbow Dash rubbed her head sheepishly. ''Well, I was actually practicing some new moves... Didn't work.'' She said frowning. ''Let me guess, for the Wonderbolts?'' Benjamin said, Rainbow Dash widens her eyes. ''How did you know I was practicing for the Wonderbolts?'' Rainbow Dash asked, Benjamin just shrugged. ''I'm a fan, remember.'' Benjamin simply said. ''Oh yeah, right.'' She said.

''Say, have you seen a lavender unicorn with a violet, purple and pink main and tail, and with dark purple eyes, and has a baby dragon?'' Benjamin asked. ''Sorry dude, haven't seen anypony like that. She a friend of yours?'' Rainbow Dash asked. ''No, not yet anyway. but I hope so.'' Benjamin said. ''Then where exactly are you heading?'' Rainbow Dash asked. ''I'm just hoping that I can make some new friends around ponyville?'' Benjamin said, Rainbow Dash raised a brow. ''Why are you trying to make some friends all over ponyville?'' Rainbow Dash asked. ''Cause it's like I always say, the more friends the marrier.'' Benjamin said proudly, Rainbow Dash didn't know what to say, how could somepony just walk around and immediately become friends with somepony they don't know, it sounded strange but what he said kind of made sense, more friends are diffidently the marrier. Rainbow Dash just smiled. ''Well, I guess I can be your friend.'' Rainbow Dash said, Benjamin smiled wildly. ''No way! Thank you so much, I'm so happy I can get to be friends with a future Wonderbolt!!'' Benjamin said excitedly, but Rainbow Dash raised a brow in confusion. '' What do you mean future Wonderbolt?''She said suspiciously.

Benjamin realized his mistake. ''Umm... I guess I have a big imagination... heh, heh...'' Benjamin chuckled nervously, Rainbow Dash didn't look convinced but didn't say anything. ''Anyway, I got to get going, the power of friendship rest in my hands- I mean Hooves!! So yeah, I'll see you later.'' Benjamin said nervously, he turned around and met Rainbow Dash's face, he backed away while Rainbow Dash trots forward. ''Are you sure you're not hiding anything? Cause friends don't keep secrets from friends. Right?'' Rainbow Dash said, as Benjamin try's to come up with an excuse. ''Well... you see... I'm not really hiding anything, I'm just a really really really really REALLY, big fan of you. That's all.'' He said smiling innocently, Rainbow Dash narrowed her eyes as Benjamin's grin starts to dim, She eyed him suspiciously. ''Oh kay...''She said slowly.

''Anyway, yeah, I'll see you later... Bye!'' He said as he trots off.

Rainbow Dash's POV...

Rainbow Dash felt like that pony knew something, she wasn't sure what but she wanted find out. He has been acting strange and weird for a while, sure he was a fun guy but something didn't feel right with him, like he doesn't belong here or he doesn't act like a normal pony. One thing in Rainbow Dash's mind was for sure...

She was going to get to the bottom of it...

Double The Party!

Golden Oaks Library...

Benjamin's POV...

After that intimidating confrontation with Rainbow Dash, Benjamin thought if he is going to meet his favorite hero, he might as well go look for her, his next destination was the Golden Oaks Library, once he was there, he couldn't help but marvel at the big tree, he still wondered how it manages to stay alive as it is used as a house in the inside. Must be magic he guessed.

As he gets closer, he noticed a pink blur going in and out of the tree house, it kept going back and forth many times. Benjamin wondered for a minute before then realizing who it was.

The pink blur kept going until Benjamin said. ''Hi Pinkie!'' The pink blur stopped where it was and showed it was a pink mare with a dark pink main and tail, with cyan blue eyes, she was carrying party supplies on her back. The pink mare know as Pinkie looked at Benjamin before appearing right Infront of him nose to nose. ''Are you psychic!?'' Pinkie said.

Benjamin just widens his eyes at her. ''Uh, no not really.'' He said, Pinkie then narrows her eyes at him, he felt a little uncomfortable with her muzzle against his. ''Do I know you?...'' Pinkie asked, Benjamin blinked a few times. ''Ummm, no...'' He said

''Ooh! I knew it, your new here in ponyville are you!'' She said excitedly, Benjamin then realized something. ''Oh, yeah, I am new here.'' He said, Pinkie gave a wide grin. ''YAY! Now I can throw 2 parties, but first I have to do this one for another new pony that's in town.'' She said, Benjamin widens his eyes realizing who this new pony could be. ''Say... She doesn't happen to be a lavender unicorn with a violet, purple and pink main and tail, and with dark purple eyes and has a baby dragon, right?'' Benjamin asked.

''Actually, they were exactly how you described it.'' She said, Benjamin smiled happy to know that she is indeed here, he then remembers. ''Oh, I almost forgot, I'm Benjamin.'' He said, Pinkie grinned. ''Hi Benjamin, as you already know, I'm Pinkie Pie, you know that's a pretty silly name, Benjamin, so what brings you to ponyville!'' Pinkie said. ''Well I'm actually here to watch the Summer Sun Celebration, but I'm also here looking for that new pony you were talking about.'' Benjamin said. ''Is she a friend of yours?'' She asked. ''No, but I'm hoping so.'' He said. ''That sounds nice.'' She said. ''I know, can't wait to meet her!'' He said.

''Say, are you making a party for her right now?'' Benjamin asked, Pinkie had a smile on her face. ''Yeah, I'm throwing this super duper awesome party for her and her baby dragon, I really hope she likes it!'' Pinkie said, Benajmin frowned at that a bit but then he put that smile back on. ''D-Dont worry, I'm sure she'll love it.'' Benjamin said Brining the happy mood back. ''By the way, think you can show me which way she went?'' Benjamin asked, Pinkie smiled. ''Yeah I know, She is just around the corner waaaaay over there!'' She said, looking to the far off roads of ponyville, Benjamin smiled. ''Thanks a lot pinkie, your a great friend.'' Benjamin said.

Pinkie felt speechless as she heard this, nopony really makes a friend that fast but Benjamin must really love making friends, she felt happy as she embraced Benjamin in a bone crushing hug. ''Oooh, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!!'' Pinkie kept saying as Benjamin struggles to breath. ''...Pinkie...I Can't...Breath!...'' He said losing breath.

''Oops, sorry!'' Pinkie said as she loosens her grip on Benjamin allowing him to breath. ''GASP!!! Whoo, thank you for the hug but can I go now?'' Benjamin said, Pinkie nodded. ''Yeah, I'm just grateful that you consider me as a friend.'' She said letting Benajmin go. ''Thanks pinkie, and of course I consider you as a friend, like I always say, the more friends the marrier.'' Benajmin said, Pinkie thought of that and saw how right he was, more friends always bring great things to come. Pinkie smiled. ''That sounds like the best advice I ever heard, it should be like a poster for you to look at when you're feeling down.'' She said, Benjamin smiled. ''Thanks again, I'll see you later Pinkie.'' He said.

''Ooh, don't forget to come to your friends party!!'' Pinkie yelled, Benjamin turned around. ''I will, thank you Pinkie.''

''Bye Bye!!!'' Pinkie yelled.

Pinkie Pie's POV...

''(Sigh) Such a nice guy, I wonder how he knew my name though.'' Pinkie thought as she wonders how he knew her name immediately, but one thing was in Pinkie's mind.

''Oh well!'' She said as she get's back to what she was doing...
