>After much deliberation you have decided to get a fluffy pony.
>You spend a week setting up a spare room in your apartment and even buy a few toys.
>Now all you need to do is get a fluffy pony.
>Most people would accomplish this by going down to their local pet shop or animal shelter and paying for a fluffy
>Most people are idiots.
>This thought crosses your mind as you continue searching the alleyway not a block from your apartment.
>Ten minutes later you still can't understand why people would play money for something they could just go out and spend a little time finding when finally, you come across a fluffy family.
>You have come at the right time as well you decide looking at the cat that has a fluffy pony cornered near a tipped open box
>Behind the Fluffy cower two foals, both of them crying and screaming for their "mummah" and "huggies."
>Stepping forward and banging your fist on a trash can to grab the cat's attention.
"Get out of here Flea bag!"
>The cat hisses at you and jumps up onto a dumpster keeping it's eye on you.
>The fluffy pony looks up at you with a smile of gratitude.
"Tank ou fow hewping fwuffy save babbehs."
>Kneeling down you calmly brush her aside and pick up both foals before you sit down on a box to look them.
>Both of course cry out for their mother who's no longer wearing that smile and begging you to return her offspring.
"Pwease giv back fwuffy's babbehs "
>Ignoring her like you would a child throwing a tantrum you begin to examine the two foals.
>The foal in your left hand is an earth pony with a white coat with a blue mane and matching eyes.
>desperately the earth foal struggled in your grip.
"huggies mummah" it cried out "mummah hewp fwuffy  scawed!"  
>The foal in your right hand was a red unicorn with green mane.
>you could not tell it's eye color as said eyes were crusted shut with some kind of gunk.
>the foal could only mewl weakly as it attempted to escape your grasp.
>This is not the first time you have come across a foal in this condition and you know it won't last more then a day
>Desperately the mare paws at your leg begging you.
"nu huwt fwuffy's babbehs! Fwuffy wiww be gud!"
>You ignore her cries as well as those of the foals as you decide on which fluffy you are taking home.
>really, it was an easy choice.
>standing up holding both fluffies you continue to ignore the mare's demands for the return of her children.
>The cat has been watching you the entire time, never leaving the dumpster it had retreated to.
>With a small grin you hold up the unicorn foal and give it a toss down the alley in the same manner you'd throw a skipping stone.
>Any cry the foal may have give is cut off as instead of skipping on the pavement the cat snatches it out of the air with a graceful leap.
>landing on the ground with the foal clamped in it's jaws the cat doesn't even spare you a glance and runs down the alley.
>The mare cries out in horror and waddles after the cat, completely forgetting the fact you still have her other foal in your hand.
>Taking advantage of the situation you quickly leave with your prize.
>The foal is only whimpering now having screamed itself hoarse with it's cries
>As you continue to walk home with your new pet you still can't understand.
>Why pay money for a fluffy when it is so easy to get one for free?
