by Mega Sean 45

Chapter 33: BONUS FROM OLD BOOK 2: With Creme on Top

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

So it's been a week since the last chapter, so the Mane Six and Spike are back from their trip at Crystal Kingdom. I was at home, and I just got up, and ate breakfast.

"Well... it's the worse time of the day once again." I said. Then I took out a briefcase, and opened it. The combination for the case is- "Shut it, narrator!" Right, I'm keeping it a secret. In the case was a head band. I put it on my head, and I was wearing an exercise outfit. "Excersing." I said and groaned. So I was doing some stretches, jumping jacks, and other boring and tough exercises. I can do sit-ups, but I can't do push ups, unless they're girly push ups. I mean, I'm a unicorn, not an earth pony. The earth ponies are the strong ones. But I wanna keep myself healthy. If only there was another way. Oh wait! I could've used the XBOX Connect, or the Wii! Well, I didn't know then, so I guess I'm sticking with this for now. My fish were watching me exercise.

"Does he know he could've used his video game systems to exercise instead?" Dorthey asked.

"He'll find out soon enough, Dorthey. He'll find out soon enough." Yoyo said.

So I finished my body exercises, and I then I started doing my emotion exercises. "Happy face. Sad face." I said, doing the impressions at the same time. "Angry face. Surprised face. Forty Five degree angle mouth face. Lion face. Confused face. Smiley face. Scared face."

"How about 'feed me' face?" Yoyo asked.

"That's your face, Yoyo." Piddles said.

"No, this is my face, see? Whiskers." Yoyo said.

Meanwhile, Spike comes inside my room. "What's up, man?" he asked.

"Sup brah?" I asked, giving him a bro-hoof.

"Not much, what's going on with you?" he asked.

"Just doing my daily exercises." I said. "I'm about to do my spell tests, I'll need some help on it."

"Oh, I don't like spelling tests, man." he said.

"No, not spelling tests. I need to test out my magic spells to see if they're working good still." I said.

"Oh, alright. How can I help?" Spike asked.

"You can help by sticking in your head in the toilet." I said.

"Very funny." Spike said.

"Who said I was joking?" I asked. Spike just looked at me, confused.

"Really, what do you want me to do?" he asked.

"Get me a glass, a target, a poster of Nickleback, and put a trampoline on the door." I said.

"What?" he asked.

"Get me a glass, a target, a..." I said, but Spike interupted me.

"I heard what you said, but why?" he asked.

"For my tests, now go get 'em." I said.

"Okay, okay." he said with an attitude. He put a trampoline on the door, got me the glass, the target, and the Nickleback poster.

"Great! Where did you get the Nickleback poster?" I asked.

"In Berry Punch's trash can." he said.

"Alright. First the glass." I said.

"What?" Spike asked.

"Just put the glass up." I said. Spike put up the glass, then I used my water squirted spell, but I actually squirted all over Spike's face.

"Hey, hey... Flare!" he cried, and started spitting. I stopped my spell before he could drown, if he even could. "What was that?"

"My water squirter spell." I said.

"I thought you were gonna put the water in this glass?" he asked.

"You thought, but that glass is actually for..." I shot a flare inside the glass. "Ooooooooo!" I cried out, like they do in Regular Show. "3 points!"

"Oh that's what you wanted the glass for? For your flares?" Spike asked.

"Yo dawg! I heard you like flares! So we have Flare, firing flares. LOL!" I said.

"Nice one." Spike said.

"Alright Spike, now the target." I said. Spike puts the target over his head. "No, aim it towards your stomach."

"Why my stomach?" he asked.

"Just do it." I said.

"I don't see what the big deal is." he said.

"DO IT FILLY!" I yelled.

"Okay, okay. Sheesh!" he said, and put the target on his stomach.

"You better not be firin your big laser." he said.

"RAIL BLAST!" I yelled, and used the rail blast spell on him, and he went flying towards the door, and hit the trampoline, and I caught him using my anti-gravity spell.

"Nice catch." he said. "You could've at least told me what spell you were doing. I could've sworn you were gonna do the laser blast spell." Then I fired my laser blast spell on a mirror, and it came back for us. Spike screamed and ducked down, then I activated my Bubble Shield spell, which protected us from the blast. "Wow, dude. Really? You gotta stop doing that." Then I activated my hornsaber, and hit Spike on the back of the head with it.

"You just gotta be prepared for anything that goes in your way, bro. You don't know what'll happen." I said, hitting him with the saber again.

"Alright, alright, I get it." Spike said.

"Beeeeee preeepared!" I sang, like Scar did in Lion King.

"So what about the Nickleback poster?" he asked.

"Oh just throw it in the trash." I said.

"But it was already in the trash!" Spike complained.

"Now put it back." I said.

"Sweet Celestia, Flare!" he complained.

"Sweet Luna, Spike!" I teased. So we both went outside, and Spike put the poster back in the trash can. Then my horn started to glow.

"SHOOP DA WHOO-WOO-WOO-WOO-WOO-WOO-WOO!" I yelled, and I fired my laser at the trash cans. "And that is how you do it!"

"You're crazy, dude!" Spike said and chuckled.

"Hey Spike? You wanna go for a ride?" I asked.

"Sure!" he said.

"Well hop on!" I said. Spike runs towards me and jumps up towards my back, but by the time he hit my back, I activated my Armor Lock. "ARMOR LOCK!" I yelled. Then Spike bounced off and flew towards a bush. I am such a troll! Spike craweled out of the bush and shook the leaves off of him.

"I gotta stop falling for that." he said.

"Yes you do, brah. Yes you do." I said.

"So what was I gonna say to you?" Spike asked.

"You were gonna ask me to take all your money." I said.

"Yes-wait, no!" he said. Then I laughed. "Yeah, keep laughing."

"With plessure!" I said and continued.

"I was gonna tell you that I got this new game in the mail." he said. I wasn't really paying attention, because I saw a shadow, but once I looked at it, it disappeared. Spike was blabering on about this new game he got, but I was only thinking about that shadow. I wasn't even interested in what he had to say anyway. "Bro, are you listening to me?" he asked.

"Sure, Spike." I said, looking back at him. "That sounds like an interesting game. I might wanna try it myself one day."

Spike gave me a confused look. "B-but... this is Oblivian, you have this game."

"LOL right, I remember. How silly of me." I said.

"You weren't paying attention to me, were you?" he asked.

"Why would I pay my hard-earned money for attention?" I asked.

"You're hopeless." Spike said, giving himself a facehoof. A couple of hours went by, and it was time for work. So I trotted on down to my shop, and started... how you say it? WOOOOORKING! Duh! I made some pizzas for a couple of friends of mine .My friends Stereo, Drift, Startrot, and Roller Rush can him and ordered a few pizzas, I had a chat with them, but while I was talking to them, I saw that shadow again.

"Whatcha lookin at?" Stereo asked.

"I saw some weird shadow outside." I answered. "But I think I saw that shadow before."

"Don't get us wrong, Flare. I think you're being watched." Drift said.

"Oooooo. Flare you have a stalker!" Starnote said.

"Yeah, you're probably right, Starnote. I gotta find out what's going on." I said.

"Hey, I feel like I'm being watched all the time." Roller Rush said. He looks at one of the tables, and sees a pile of money with googly eye-balls, much like the Gieco money.

"Dude, Roller, that money hasn't been seen in the commericals in years." Stereo said.

"I know. That's why I'm afraid of it." Roller said. Hey Roller, if you're reading this, it's just a joke, I don't think you're afraid of the money, brah. Or are you? Ooooo!

All day I've been working, I keep seeing that shadow, but I can't leave my post until my lunch break. I was distracted in my lunch break, however. Aquatic Armor came in my shop, and told me about this Nightmare Night update on TF2. We've been talking so much, that I didn't have time to find that shadow, and it was work time again. By the time I closed my shop, I didn't see the shadow anywhere. It wasn't night time yet, it was dusk. All the time I was walking home, I kept thinking of that shadow, but that shape was so familiar to me. Just because I'm so silly, I was talking to myself while I was walking home.

"This is weird, I never seen anything like this before." I said to myself. "Aqua says the boss in TF2 is actually an NPC? Wow, I didn't know TF2 had NPCs in them." I whistled. "Now that's something you don't see every day. Valve really knows how to make their fans happy. Except they can't count to 3. Now, what was I saying? Oh right, Drift and Starnote might be right, I'm being watched." I looked behind me, but there was nopony there. I continued walking. "I have the feeling this Doctor character might be responsible for this. On the other hoof, maybe a shy fan. LOL! That would be possum grade awesome, wouldn't it? But I can't take any chances. If they wanna see me, they're going to have to bump into me themselves." Then out of nowhere, I jinxed it. I bumped into a bright pink pony, with a white mane. She looked excactly like Fluttershy, but different colors. We were both laying on the ground across from eachother. Once she came to her senses, she stood up and walked towards me.

"Oh, sorry about that." she said.

"No problemo." I said. Once I started coming back to my senses, I had a better look at her. "Fluttershy?" I asked.

"Pardon me?" the pony asked.

"Fluttershy, is that you?" I asked.

"No, who's Fluttershy?" she asked me.

"Nevermind. She wouldn't say it like that. There would be lots of 'sorrys', or 'if you don't minds', or something like that." I said.

"Need a hand?" she asked me with her hoof out.

"Yes, actually. All I have is hooves, I need hands. LOL." I joked.

"LOL! That was funny!" she said.

"Wait... what did you say?" I asked with a shocking look on my face.

"I said, LOL that was funny!" she said.

"Holy Wizard of Feelings! You say leet speak just like me?" I asked.

"Yeah, I less then three leet speak!" she said.

"And I bumped into you. You must be my future wife. LOL!" I said.

"LOL, yeah." she said. I took her hoof and she helped me off the ground.

"Thanks, sista." I said. "So, you were that shadow I keep seeing?" I asked.

"Yes, I'm sorry." she said.

"No problemo." I said. "The name's Flare. The Flare to the Gun!"

She giggles. "Well hello, Flare to the Gun!"

I laughed. "You're funny!"

"You're funny looking." she said.

"You stole my joke! Angry face." I said.

"Sorry." she said with a giggle.

"So what's your name?" I asked.

"Creme Pop." she said.

"Nice to be aquainted to you, Creme Pop." I said.

"And to you as well, Flare Gun!" Creme said.

"You look like somepony I should get to know. How about we have some dinner?" I asked.

"Sure!" she said. So I took her to the Soup 'n' Salads, which is a bit like Olive Garden. We sat down, and we were looking in our menus.

"Got any idea what you're gonna have?" I asked.

"Probably a soup and some salad." Creme said.

"Really? What a coincidence! Me too!" I said.

"Well, why else did this place get it's name?" she asked.

"Good point." I said. "So tell me, where you from Creme?"

"Mareami." she said.

"No way! I'm also from Mareami!" I said.

"Get out!" she said.

"Oh... alright." I said, sadly walking out towards the door.

She giggles. "No, I didn't mean it like that." she said.

"I know." I said, sitting back down. "So, how was life?"

"Oh, um... terrible." she said.

"Aww, I'm sorry to hear that." I said.

"Yeah. I was living alone... in a box... in Mareami... with no friends." she said sadly.

"Oh... ummm." I didn't know what to say, I felt so bad. "Do you have any friends now?"

"N-no." she said. "Nopony would wanna be friends with a blank flank like me!"

"Wait, you're a blank flank?" I asked.

"That a problem?" she asked sadly.

"No, not at all!" I said. "So far, I like you. And I'm pretty sure you have one friend right now."

"Really? Aww, thanks Flare." she said with a smile.

"Not me, I'm talking about this salt shaker." I said, holding up the salt shaker on the table.

Creme giggled. "It's good to see a positive pony."

"Of course. Welcome to Ponyville, sista!" I said. "Ever since I moved here, stuff has been going great for me! Life in Mareami wasn't so good for me neither."

"Oh." she said.

"Yeah. But I wasn't living in a box though, don't get me wrong." I said.

"Yeah, I know." Creme said and giggled.

"How about work?" I asked.

"Nope, I don't have a job. I'm poor." she said.

"So you moved to Ponyville just to live in a box again?" I asked.

"I live in a house, but it's empty and dusty. No electricity, or running water." Creme said.

"What made you wanna live in-" But before I could finish, the waitress came to take our orders, so we ordered our meals. "So what made you to wanna live in Ponyville?" I asked.

"To be honest, I've been watching you for quite some time." Creme said.

"GET OUT OF HERE STALKER!" I said. Creme giggled. "Wow, I didn't know you'd take that as a joke."

"I know how you are, Flare. I've been watching over you, since before you even moved here." Creme said.

"How long was that?" I asked.

"How long were you living here?" Creme asked.

"Since March." I said. "So almost a year, right?"

"Yep!" Creme said.

"So you heard about all my stories?" I asked.

"Like the time you opened your shop?" Creme asked.

"Yeah, like that." I said.

"And when you won at the Unicorn Games?" Creme asked.

"Affermative!" I said.

"And the time you were acting like a child?" she asked and giggled.

"Those Canterlot ponies had it coming!" I cried. "They kept calling me a child, so I had to show them what being a child really meant!"

"I found it quite funny." Creme said.

"So did I, Creme. So did I." I said.

"Yep!" she said.

"But one of my favorite adventures is when I went to my friend Twilight's high school reunion, but she was too sick, so she sent me." I said.

"Oh really?" Creme asked.

"Really really!" I said. "And Twilight sure had some bullies over there too. Not as much as me, but still. But I was able to troll them, and beat them at a rapping contest."

"I didn't know you rap." Creme said.

"I didn't know either. That night was the first time I rapped... well." I said. "I suppose it was Twilight's voice. My creativity was always awesome though."

"And those ponies all still believed you were her?" Creme asked.

"Canterlot ponies are so gulliable!" I said. "Like the time I was helping Vinyl Scratch save her friendship with Octavia."

"How many times have you been at Canterlot?" Creme asked.

"My first time was after the Unicorn Games." I explained. "Second was at the royal wedding, third was finding my expansion for my shop, fourth was when I went to Twilight's reunion, fifth was with Vinyl to save Octavia, sixth was at the Grand Galloping Gala, and seventh was when I went to see the princesses with my friends the Noble Six, so they can give us the message that the Mane Six was captured, and we went to go save them. So yeah, I went to Canterlot seven times."

"What about that time you went to space with your purple friend?" Creme asked.

"Oh, Psyche? Right, I forgot about that." I said.

"Tell me a little bit about him." Creme said.

"He's one of my bros! I met him at the Royal Wedding when we were helping to get Pinkie Pie off of Aquatic Armor. It was really fun!" I said.

"How about your other Noble Six members?" Creme asked.

"Well, there's Blaze Goldheart, he's a wonderbolt. Crystal Iceblast, and Red Engineer, and Aqua's also a member." I said.

"Were you ever in a relationship?" Creme asked.

"I was in a relationship with Fluttershy for a little while, but it didn't last long. But we agreed to be the best friends." I said.

"I see. How about your sister?" Creme asked.

"Water? She's living with me. I'm thinking of making her the manager of my expansion in Canterlot." I said.

"Wow, seems interesting!" Creme said.

"You got that right, marefriend!" I said in a teenage filly voice. By that time our food came. So the two of us continued talking as we ate, and after a half hour, I paid the check, and we left. I gave out a burp, but said excuse me of course. I mean, I ain't rude. I've been thinking about what Creme said about her not having anything, so I decided to take action. "Creme?" I asked her.

"Yeah, Flare?" she asked.

"I've been thinking of all that you said, and... I wanna help you out." I said.

"Help me? How?" Creme asked.

"Well first off, you need money." I said.

"So you gonna let me have some money?" Creme asked.

"Yes, but everypony has to earn their money of course. Unless it's their birthday, or they won a contest or a game show, and stuff like that." I said. "So, how about I give you a job application, and you can come work with me?"

"But... I can't do anything." Creme said.

"You can talk, you can breathe, you can blink of course." I said.

"Even a foal can do those things." Creme said.

"You can always learn." I said. "I happen to have a couple of job applications with me, just in case." I took a job application out of my satchel and gave it to her. "Fill this in, and meet me at my shop tomorrow. You know where I am right?"

"Yep!" Creme said.

"Cool!" I said. "Oh, and one more thing."

"What is it?" Creme asked.

I shoved a garlic roll in her mouth. "GARLIC ROLL!" I yelled. She chuckled as I trotted away. I went inside my trailer, and went to my fish tank to talk to my fish. "Guys! You'll never guess what happened today!"

"Did you finally get a marefriend?" Dorthey asked. Then Rainbow smacked her in the back of the head. "Ow, Rainbow!"

"I met this mare today, and took her out to dinner." I said.

"HA! I was right!" Dorthey yelled in Rainbow's face.

"Her name is Creme Pop." I said. "She was from Mareami like we were."

"Actually, I think Piddles here is from the swamps." Yoyo said.

"Really?" Piddles said to him in an annoyed tone.

"But it seems she had a bad past like me too, except her's was far more worse. She doesn't even have a plot tattoo!" I cried.

"A plot tattoo?" Darrel asked.

"Cutie mark." Pearl said. I sometimes call cutie marks plot tattoos. I mean, cutie mark is kinda a girly name, wouldn't you think? But wait, if I call it a plot tattoo, I might be calling a pony a punk, or something. Whatever, I'm just sticking to the personality I already have. Nopony can change me, no matter what. I'd like to see ya try filly!

"So I'm thinking I should go help this poor mare out in getting her life into shape. What would you say?" I asked my fish.

"IT'S A TRAP!" Piddles yelled.

"Alright, I'll go help her out. I just hope she knows how to fill out a job application." I said. "I doubt she has a social security number though, but I can help her set one up. Maybe she needs some house insurance too. I know she's broke, but her looks. She looks alot like Fluttershy, but pink with a white mane, and personality is different too."

"You dating her?" Pearl asked.

"Well, it'll just have to take some patience. She needs patience, because she's a doctor!" I said and laughed.

Yoyo laughed along. "Oh ho ho, he made a funny!"

"So first thing tomorrow morning, I'll get her settled in at work, then later on I can help her to get her destiny tattooed on her bum. It wouldn't hurt." I said. So the next day came. Yeah, the next day came just a few seconds later (sarcastic). I was just walking towards my shop and I saw Creme just standing there waiting. "Sup sista?" I said to her.

"Hey Flare!" she said. "I got my application done."

"Alright, let's see it." I said, taking her application. All she wrote down on it was 'May I have a job?' "Close enough. You're hired." I said.

Creme squeed and gave me a big hug. "Thank you, thank you, thank you, Flare!" she cried, but she let go quickly. "Um, I mean, boss."

"It's kay. I treat my employees as friends of mine." I said. "Let me introduce you to your co-workers." I opened the door, and Lyra and Bon Bon were in there, getting the shop ready. "The green unicorn over there is Lyra Heartstrings, and that one is Bon Bon, but I like to call her Bonnie."

"Plessure to meet you two!" Creme said, sticking out her hoof.

"Plessure to meet you t-" Bon Bon said with her hoof out, walking towards Creme, but Lyra just jumped in front of her to shake her hoof first.

"Likewise! I'm Lyra! It's great having another pony coming to help us out!" Lyra said. Bon Bon had a confused look on her face.

"Well then." Bon Bon said. "Anyways, welcome to the team. You'll love it here! The pay is good, the work is good..." But then she towards Creme's ear and whispers. "But Flare goes out too much leaving us in charge."

"Really? Wow." Creme said.

"Now Creme, let me show you how things work around here." I said, taking her into the kitchen. To shorten things out, we'll skip a couple of hours, and we're in our lunch break. I was just about to leave, when Creme catches up to me.

"Hey Flare, can I go to lunch with you?" she asked.

"Oh sorry, sista. I already promised my friends I'd meet with them. But this will be your chance to get to know Lyra and Bonnie a little more. Why don't you do that? I'll be back in an hour, don't worry." I said

"Okay." she said. So I trotted out of the shop. Creme just looks down, turns around, and sees Lyra and Bon Bon looking at her with evil smiles. "What?" Creme asked. Lyra and Bonnie both chuckled and locked the front door. "Why are you chuckling? Why do you lock the front door?" she asked.

"Oh there's just something we wanted to show you." Lyra said mischieviously.

"Yeah, there's something about us that Flare don't know about." Bon Bon said.

Creme started to get nervous. "W-what do you mean?"

"A little something that involves... something... nasty." Bon Bon said in her ear.

Creme's heart was pounding. "S-something... nasty?" Creme asked.

"Yeah, we like doing naughty things." Lyra said.

"Oh no! You don't mean..." Creme said.

"Oh we mean." Lyra and Bonnie both said and gave out a little chuckle.

"Oh no." Creme said. Bonnie and Lyra took Creme to my office, and went through my drawers on my desk.

"All clear, Bonnie?" Lyra asked her, who was guarding the door.

"All clear." Bon Bon said.

"Alright, Creme. Here's this nasty naughty thing we were talking about." Lyra said. She goes through my drawer, and takes out a jar full of toe-nails.

"Eww! What is that?" Creme asked.

"Flare's hoof-nail clippings!" Lyra said.

"Flare collects his hoof-nail clippings?" Creme asked.

"Yeah, pretty nasty stuff, huh? See, we told you we were gonna show you something nasty. It ain't normal collecting hoof-nail clippings, you know." Lyra said. Creme didn't say a thing. "And yes, we like to do naughty stuff, like going through our boss's stuff for his personal things."

"Wow." Creme said.

"Wanna see some more of Flare's personal things he keeps unsecured in his office?" Lyra asked.

"Sure!" Creme said, giggling.

Meanwhile, while she was snooping into my stuff while I didn't know, I was at the Ponyville Cafe with my friends Aquatic Armor, Crystal Iceblast, and Red Engineer.

"And that's how ah defeated the boss in that match." Engineer said, telling his story.

"Wow, interesting. I didn't know boss enemies were suppose to be in your matches, Engie." Crystal asked.

"They're not. Ah dunno why they were there in da first place." Engineer said.

"So Flare, word on the street is you met a new mare." Aqua said, winking at me.

"What street told you?" I asked. "The streets should just mind their own businesses!"

"Is it true Flare? You have a marefriend?" Crystal asked.

"No, I don't have a marefriend." I said. "I'm just helping this pony out, because her life has been terrible. I'm trying to get her life into shape." I said.

"Flare, mah friend." Engineer said, putting his hoof on me. "Ya'll don't have to keep yer personal feelins a secret. Ya'll can trust us."

"But I'm serious, I don't like her in that way. Like seriously actually!" I said.

"Alright, Flare. Alright, whatever you say." Aqua said.

"Yeah, whatever I say." I repeated.

"What is this mare's problem anyway?" Crystal asked.

"Well she doesn't have a destiny tattooed on her bum." I said.

"You mean a cutie mark right?" Aqua asked.

"I know what it's called! Don't correct me, Aqua!" I said.

"Alright, relax." Aqua said.

"Yeah, so later on I'm gonna help her find her destiny, so she won't have to be a blank flank anymore, and she won't be teased." I said.

"Ya know, they say when ya don't get yer cutie mark when yer still a child, then you may never get it." Engineer said.

"Don't say that, Engie. She still might get it." I said.

"Ah'm just sayin, partner. Just sayin." Engineer said.

"I'm gonna help Creme out, and I ain't gonna stop until she gets her flank tattooed!" I cried.

"That's the spirit, Flare!" Aqua said.

"Hey, I've been wondering. In the Super Mario games, where did the Koopalings or Bowser Jr. come from?" Crystal asked.

"Bowser and Princess Peach, duh! Whah else did he keep capturin her." Engineer said.

"Good point." Crystal said. So I went back to my shop, but by the time I was back, they were working, they weren't looking through my desk anymore. How did I know that? Since I, Flare is the narrator. Remember when I said I have a tight security in my shop and trailer? LOL remember readers? Well I had a camera in my office, so I saw what they did, but I didn't tell them that yet. I'll wait until the right time. So I got back to work, and by the end of the day, I was just finishing cleaning up the shop with Creme. Lyra and Bonnie were just about to leave.

"Bye Creme! That was a fun first day, wasn't it?" Bon Bon asked.

"Sure was, Bonnie!" Creme said.

"Cya tomorrow!" Bon Bon said.

"Cya, Creme!" Lyra said.

"Bye!" Creme said, waving at them. The two of them leave.

"So Creme, I see you befriended Bonnie and Lyra." I said.

"Yep!" Creme said.

"See? Your life is getting into shape! See how awesome possum Ponyville is compared to Mareami?" I asked.

"I see, so the rumors were true then." Creme said.

"What rumors?" I asked.

"About Ponyville being the most peaceful town in Equestria." Creme said.

"Oh yeah right." I said.

"So you wanna help me in getting my cutie mark?" Creme asked.

"Of course! I got nothing better to do." I said. "Except play X-BUCKS, but that can wait."

"Thanks, Flare! I promise I'll try my best." Creme said.

"No try. Do or do not, there is no try." I said.

"Star Wars reference. I get it!" Creme said.

"So Creme, you ready? Ready as spaghetti?" I asked.

"With shrooms!" she said.

"I like your style, sista! I really do!" I said. So I locked up my shop, and we went outside where I trained her. "So if cooking or cleaning at the shop isn't your destiny, we'll try something else." I said. "Now, what do you like?"

"I dunno." Creme said.

"Alright, how about I throw this stick, and you get it?" I asked.

"I'm not a dog." she said.

"Sometimes you might act like one." I said and laughed. She laughed along.

"Wow, that was a terrible joke I said. You still laughed?" I asked.

"Of course!" she said. "You're funny!"

"Thanks!" I said. "I'll be here all week! I will, that's my schedule."

"C'mon Flare, teach me something good!" Creme said.

"You know how to fly?" I asked.

"Yeah, kinda." Creme said.

"How about showing me some moves?" I asked.

"Like tricks?" Creme asked.

"Nooo! Tricks are for kids!" I said. "Just do some flips, and spins, and such.

"Okay." Creme said. So she glided around in the air, spinning around slowly.

"No, Creme. No. Something better than that!" I said.

"Okay." she said. She spun around some more and did a few tricks. "Hey, I think I'm getting the hang of this! I'm Creme of the air!" She continued flying around doing tricks.

"Yeah, that's right! Creme, Creme, Creme of the sky!" I sang in the style of George of the Jungle. But I jinxed it, she was just about to crash into a building. "Watch out for that building!" I yelled.

"What?" she asked, looking at me, but when she looked forward she crashed on a building and fell into a cardboard box.

"Oooo!" I said. "That's gotta hurt."

"It did." she said.

"You alright?" I asked, helping her out.

"Perhaps living in a box is my destiny. I can't do anything right." Creme said.

"Of course you'll get it right. Just be patient, and I'll be the doctor." I joked. "But seriously, you can do this! I have faith in you!"

"You do?" she asked.

"No." I said. "Of course I do. You remember right? LOL remember Creme?"

"LOL I remember." she said.

"Look, how about we call it a night?" I asked.

"I wanna keep practicing as much as I could. You know what you did Flare?" she asked.

"I got you a job." I said.

"Yes, but other than that." she said.

"You made new friends?" I asked.

"Yes, but other than that." she said.

"Because you enjoyed the experience of going through my stuff?" I asked.

"Yes, but other then- Wait, how did you know?" she asked.

"My trailer and shop has an advanced security system, if you haven't noticed. I saw through the security camera it my office." I said. "I would've just fired the three of you, but I'm not that kind of stallion."

"But no that wasn't the reason either." Creme said. "You have faith in me, and you did your best to put my life on track. Now I believe I can do anything!"

"But you just said you couldn't do anything right. Forty-Five degree angle mouth face." I said.

"Yes I said that, but you showed me that you really cared for me. You're a true friend, Flare Gun. I'll never forget that. Smiley face." she said. But I wasn't paying attention, because I got text message from Spike.

"I'm sorry, what was that?" I asked.

She giggles. "Thank you, Flare."

"So, see you tomorrow?" I asked.

"See you tomorrow!" she said.

"Kay." I said. "Quick to the TARDIS!" I ran into the TARDIS, which is a time device from Doctor Who, and the TARDIS disappeared. Why? Because forget about logic, it doesn't exist in this universe. What are you to judge? Days went by, and I kept on trying to help her find her destiny. We did video games next, but it turned out she couldn't press the buttons on the controller. I'm a unicorn, so I can use my magic to use the controller. Next we tried cart surfing. If you read the chapter: Child's Play, you'd know I go and visit a gem mine, and go cart surfing. It's also where I get my gems for Spike, and I give some to Rarity sometimes. Normally, I'd give them to her for free, but because of her generousity, she pays me anyway, like the time I gave her that couch I found. Next Creme and I tried fishing, but instead of a fishing pole, she was gonna try a bug lantern to shock the water, but I stopped her. We even went to Sugarcube Corner to try baking sweets, but she isn't much of a cook neither. I was about to think that there was no hope from her, but one sunny day, spreading the clouds away, can you tell me how to get, how to get to Seseme Street? Wait, what did I say? I meant to say that one day, I was doing some errends. In town square I found Creme so happy, and in joy. She flew over to me.

"Flare! You'll never guess what happened!" Creme cried.

"You got your flank tattooed right?" I asked.

"Darn, I wanted to be the one to tell you." Creme said.

"Never say never, sista! I maybe weird, but I'm smart." I said. "So what does it look like?" She showed me her cutie mark which was a couple of blue butterflies. What a coincidence! She looks like Fluttershy, and they have the same cutie marks! Don't worry, they're not the same pony. We went to go meet Fluttershy, I saw them both at the same time, so they're two seperate ponies. "How did you get it?"

"I dunno, I was just being myself." she said. "I was skipping around, being happy, skipiing in a field full of butterflies- Oooooh. I guess I get how I got it!"

"Congrats Creme Pop!" I said. "I knew you could do it!"

"I wouldn've done it without you, Flare Gun!" she said, giving me a hug, And so, my heart grew three sizes that day. No, it didn't really, but I wanted to say that. Am I in love with her? No, but I might one day. I'm right now having feelings for another pony, which whom I'll mention in a later chapter.

"Hey it wasn't any trouble at all, Cremey." I said. "I was just glad I could help. Smiley face."

"Thank you Flare for fixing my life." Creme said.

"So what are you gonna do now?" I asked.

"I'm still gonna work for you, and be friends with you. But I really like hanging with Bon Bon and Lyra. But that doesn't mean I won't hang with you." Creme said.

"No problemo, sista!" I said. "I have the Noble Six anyway."

"That's good. I'll keep in touch with you." Creme said with a wink.

"So, talk to you later?" I asked.

"Talk to you later!" she said. I walked away, and she just stared at me, sighing, and smiling. So it turned out she was in love with me, but I didn't know then. I'll figure it out over time, but for now we're just friends. So I went home, and took out some paper and a pen. You know Twilight Sparkle writes messages to Princess Celestia right? Well, I felt bad, because Celestia takes all the glory, and fanmail, and she has all the attention, but Luna hardly got any attention. So I decided to write friendship letters to Princess Luna. Luna and I are great friends. I was one of the ponies that helped restore her popularity, and respect. But don't think I'll take all the glory, because Twilight and Psyche, and a few others helped too. So here's my letter:

"Dear Princess Luna, I met a new friend. But she looks like Fluttershy kinda. Can you imagine that? It's a small world after all. Hey, a Disney reference! So, I kinda new this, but what I learned about friendship is that, some ponies really need your help, and you should always help them out, even if everyone else thinks they're a loser. If you see somepony getting picked on, stand up to them. If they need help, they'll ask for it. But if you ask to help them, don't think that they'll always say yes. Don't get mad. I'm sure they'd be very pleased that you at least tried to help. Effort is effort. Hope to see you again soon, because you have yet to appear in this new season of this story. Your friend, Flare Gun."

I gave the letter to Spike, and he send it to... I guess Celestia, because that's where all his letters get forwarded to. I hope Celestia doesn't read the letters, because they're for Luna. If Luna wants to share them, she can. Celestia shouldn't be superior. I mean, I like her, but she's taking all the credit for everything. They're equal! All princesses are equal, but some princesses are more equal than others.
