- >You are a fluffy pony scrounging for food in the alleys of Canterlot.
- >You have to hide from the meanie ponies who keep trying to run you off.
- >Today you feel really lucky, you found a rotten apple in the trash.
- >You will eat well now.
- >You look around for other fluffies who might take your food.
- >When it is clear you start to happily eat and make your tummy hurties go away.
- >Suddenly you hear a clambering from the streets.
- >”Is it them? The ones who beat Discord?”
- >”They saved Equestria from eternal night!”
- >”I heard they beat a dragon by themselves.”
- >”The heroes of Equstria! The princess is having a parade for them!”
- >The chatter keeps going on.
- >Heroes? You have never even heard of heroes before.
- >You sneak up to the edge of the alley and look out.
- >You see a precession of unicorn guards marching down the street.
- >You cower in a shadow, the guards give big owchies.
- >The crowd grows restless and you hear music.
- >It is happy music and you start to hmm with it.
- >You start getting excited and want to watch what I shappening.
- >The crowd grows restless and start to crowd the sides of the streets.
- >They start to block your view.
- >You run up trying to see what is going on only to be pushed back by the crowd.
- >You see lights and streamers shoot into the air, “Its them! They are amazing!”
- >The crowd roars and stomps their hooves as the mighty heroes start coming by.
- >One stallion is staring jaw agape, “They are beautiful…”
- >It’s no fair! You want to see a beautiful hero!
- >You start jumping around looking for a break to go see the heroes.
- >Every time you see one a leg comes down and blocks it.
- >”It’s her… the princess’s personal protégé…”
- >”I hear that earth pony is as fast as Pegasus ponies.”
- >There is a roar from above, you look up and only see dark contrails.
- >”I hear she hangs out with the wonder bolts.”
- >”Yea, one of the only ponies to ever do a sonic rainboom!”
- >You push into the crowd.
- >One pony looks down and sees you, “Go away!”
- >He kicks you back, you roll into a wall.
- >”Wow, she’s beautiful… I hear she designs clothes for the social elite but she also sells to the common pony.”
- >The steady rhythm of the music and marching shake the ground.
- >The run head long into the throng of ponies only to bounce back.
- >”Hey! Doesn’t she supply most of the apples for the city?”
- >”Isn’t that the supermodel from a while back? She’s one of the heroes!”
- >You stomp, tears of frustration start to form in your eyes.
- >”Fwuffy wan see! Pwease wet fwuffy see!”
- >You run up again but cannot get the ponies to notice you or move.
- >Eventually the music dies down and the confetti stops.
- >The ponies disperse and all you see is an empty street.
- >You run to the edge and look around seeing nothing.
- >A couple of ponies walk by, “Wow! Glad I saw that!”
- >”Yea, that was a once in a life time event!”
- >You waddle back to the alley with your head down.
- >You sit next to your rotten apple and take a few nibbles.
- >You start to sniffle, “Baaahhhhhh!”
- >You’re sad you didn’t get to see the heroes and start to cry.
- >After a few moments you are startled, “Why are you crying little fella?”
- >You turn and see a pink earth pony standing there looking at you inquisitively.
- >You panic and run around jumping between a trashcan and a wall, “Nuu hewt fwuffy!”
- >A pegasus pony flies in landing next to the pink one, she has the most wonderful multicolor mane.
- >”Hey Pinkie, watcha doing in here?”
- >”I just found this little thing crying.”
- >The Pegasus bends over looking at you, “Why are you crying? Someone being mean to you?”
- >”Maybe this is why, look what he’s eating.”
- >They look down at the rotten apple.
- >The Pegasus speaks up, “Oh this won’t do! Hey Applejack, bring some of your apples over here! Somepony is hungry!”
- >A yellow Pegasus comes running in, “Someone is hungry? Where? Is it a stray animal?”
- >The pink one speaks again, “Kinda, it looks like one of those fluffy ponies.”
- >”If I knew that today we would cap off our festivities by taking precious time to hang out in an alley I don’t think I would have dressed myself up so.”
- >You are still shaking in fear but you can’t help but to stare at the beautiful unicorn that has just walked in.
- >You feel a stirring in your pee pee place but you will it away, you don’t want to be a bad fluffy.
- >She looks down at you and gasps, “Oh no No NO! We cannot allow you to attend dinner in such a state!”
- >You start getting levitated, “Pwease nuu hewt fwuffy! Am gud fwuffy!”
- >You are brought closer to the white unicorn, “You must be bathed and groomed plus you should have the right attire.”
- >”Oh for Celestia’s sake Rarity! We’re feeding him an apple, not carrying him to a fancy smancy restaurant!”
- >An orange earth pony just walked into the alley.
- >”Oh my mistake Applejack. You see, I thought we were past the stone age but alas… Civilization must wait.”
- >The orange pony holds her hoof up, it looks like she is trying to get the middle part of it to stand up.
- >A purple unicorn comes around the corner, “Hey girls, what’s up? Why are you all hanging out in an alley?”
- >”You do know there are other places to see in Canterlot right?”
- >The pink one speaks up again, “Oh hi Twilight! We’re feeding a stray fluffy an apple!”
- >The white unicorn huffs, “Oh if you must! He really should get a bath though.”
- >You are placed on the ground and the orange earth pony sets the biggest most gorgeous apple in front of you.
- >It is red and shiny and looks oh so sweet.
- >You can’t believe it.
- >You look up, “Am fwuffy’s?”
- >They all nod smiling at you.
- >You grab it and try to bite, but it is too hard for your fluffy teethe to bite through.
- >You start to sniffle again, “Too hawd fo fwuffy…”
- >The yellow Pegasus steps up and stomps on the apple mushing it up, “There, now try it.”
- >You can’t believe how nice these ponies are.
- >You try the mushed apple, it is the best thing you can remember eating.
- >You dive in loudly smacking your lips as you eat this divine treat.
- >The purple unicorn says, “Wow, he was really hungry.”
- >The rainbow haired Pegasus says, “Well, we can’t just leave him here… Hey! Let’s bring him with us!”
- >”Only if we can get him bathed as quickly as possible. I’ll make him an ensemble while we are getting him groomed.”
- >You have a full tummy but are still scared, “Nuu hewt fwuffy?”
- >You are levitated again and brought in front of the purple unicorn, she starts looking you over.
- >”No we won’t hurt you. We’ll make sure you get taken care of. You are fascinating, I’ve never seen your kind before.”
- >She puts you on her back and all of you leave the alley and start walking down the street.
- >Ponies are pointing and whispering when they see you, you don’t know why.
- >You hug the neck of this wonderful Unicorn.
- >You may not have got to see the heroes, but these ponies are hero enough for you.
