Rush Fairs
Chapter 1: Rushed
Load Full Story Next ChapterIt was a bright and sunny day in Ponyville and Rush Fairs was getting off the small train that’d taken him from Fillydelphia to Ponyville. He had come down from Cloudsdale and then took the train to Ponyville. “Thank you sir!” Rush said as he stepped off the platform and he walked over to the information desk where a very bored mare sat. “Um, hello I’m Rush Fairs a visitor her-”
“All visitors must be given a pass!” The mare sighed and handed him a small pass, using her horn she magically wrote his name and gender on it.
“Yes, well, anyways umm so I’m looking for a Earth Pony named Pinkamena Pie an-“
“Your business must be added to the visitor pass!” the mare once again used her horn to write Search Mission.
“Okay, your very dedicated to that pass, as I was saying, I’m looking for a mare named Pinkamena Pie, she’s an earth pony, and I was wondering if there is anyone here with the last name of-“
“There is only one pony with Pie as their last name and that is Pinkie Pie, she is currently living in the Cake’s upstairs apartment at Sugarcube Corner two blocks down from town square on the South side, if you take the regular path down then you should reach the town square coming in from the east side.”
“Thank you!” Rush forced a smile and walked away his visitors badge digging into his chest. The mare had been helpful but in a very unhelpful way! Anyways there had been more ponies he had wanted to ask about but he was afraid to go back to the information desk. He walked out of the train station and looked out at the beautiful valley that was home to Ponyville, he could see why many types of ponies came here, from Pegasi to Unicorns alike. The valley was deep and the sky above was beautifully clear. The small buildings snuggled together and the stone paths were cleanly washed and the plants flourished. The only thing missing were the ponies! The streets were completely empty! He very carefully walked down the small path to the village. As he got nearer he could hear some sort of commotion coming from town square. Panic raced through him as he galloped down the streets, had there been an accident!? Missing ponies?! Please let there be missing ponies!!
Reaching town square he skidded to a stop, greeted by a large crowd of ponies. The ponies where chanting something that sounded like “Dash! Dash! Dash!” But other ponies where chanting “Pink-ie Pink-ie!!” Pinkie as is Pinkie Pie?! It was certainly worth a shot. He extended his wings and soared above the crowd and landed lightly towards the front. Quickly pushing through the last of the ponies he found a sight to behold. In the middle of town square there were six ponies. Two of the ponies sat behind a table which was over-burdened with treats. The two mares that sat behind the table were eating as fast as possible, one was a blue Pegasus with a rainbow mane, and the other was light pink earth pony with a bright pink mane. On the other side of the table stood the last four ponies, two of them stood by the blue pony, an orange one with a blonde mane and a yellow one with a light pink mane, the orange one was screaming at the top of her lungs while the other one was quietly encouraging the blue one. By the pink one stood two more ponies a lavender one with a dark blue mane with pink streaks and a gorgeous white one with a royal purple mane, she had beautiful blue eyes and a perfect smile, Rush couldn’t look away. “Who is that?” Rush breathed.
“You’ve got the right idea bro’” said a blue earth pony to his left “all those girls are attractive but Rarity’s by far the hottest.”
Surprised but happy to know the white one’s name Rush happily engaged conversation with the blue pony “Her names Rarity? That’s a gorgeous name! What are the other’s names? I’m Rush Fairs by the way.” Rush smiled
“Nice to meet you Rush I’m Blue Waters,” The pony returned Rush’s friendly smile and continued “ The lavender one is Twilight Sparkle, she’s really smart and friendly but probably one of the less attractive of the group, especially after the smarty pants incident. The yellow one is Fluttershy, she’s graceful and kind but a bit of a scaredy pony and very shy. The orange one is Applejack, she’s loyal, honest and hot, no pony turns down a natural blonde, and she works on a farm so she’s a hard worker. The light blue one is Rainbow Dash she fast, loyal and awesome, her and Applejack are super tight, but she can be a bit air headed sometimes, she lives in the clouds literally. Finally, the pink one is Pinkie Pie, she energetic and throws awesome parties. They are the most popular ponies in Ponyville; they stopped Discord and Nightmare Moon.”
“Really?! Wow so they’re the elements of harmony!” Rush smiled, for some reason he had a feeling that he would be interacting with them a lot. “So what’s going on here?!”
“A food eating competition between Dash and Pinkie.” Blue said “It’s only happened once before and no pony’s quite sure what happened last time.”
“Ah, so who’s winning?”
“I think Pinkie but Dash seems to be pacing herself a bit more, so she’s probably saving up for a big gulp. It should be over in a few minutes.” Blue turned his attention back to the 6 ponies. Blue had been right, the competition was over about 2 minutes later. Pinkie Pie won but it was a close race. Rush hadn’t entirely decided if Pinkie was Pinkamena, the pink pony he knew was small, quiet and had severely short hair as to better the production on her family’s rock farm. Rush breathed in a sigh and walked toward the 6 ponies.
