Painful meeting
“So let me get this straight, you pranked him, the same way three times and he fell for it each time?” Rainbow asked while munching on blueberry muffin.
“Yep, wow this is pretty good.” Blaze simply nodded while eating his own muffin, they were sitting in Sugarcube Corner talking about his life in castle, of course mostly about pranks he did.
“Of course it is, I already told you, these are best sweets in all of Equestria.”
Blaze couldn’t disagree, so he simply continued eating this piece of art.
“Well you don’t seem to be as boring as Twilight when I first met her.”
“Oh please don’t even compare me to her.”
“What, you know her?”
Blaze frowned remembering talking with this lavender mare, he couldn’t believe till this day that somepony can make everything sound boring.
“Let’s say we met a couple times.”
“Ok, so what exactly are you doing here? I mean you probably didn’t come here just to prank some ponies right?”
“Well Princess Luna ordered me to come here to study the magic of friendship.” He said choking a little on his last words.
“Well that sounds awfully familiar, anyway, welcome to Ponyville, where will you be staying at? Twilight’s library?”
Blaze cocked his eyebrow and gave Rainbow a skeptical look.
“Yeah right, so if not at library, where are you going to stay?”
“Princess Celestia said that there’s some kind of apple farm here.”
Rainbows eyes gone wide.
“You are going to stay at Applejack’s?”
“At who’s? Oh she’s the element of honesty right?”
“Yeah that’s right.”
“Well anyway who cares where I will stay, I just have to make some friends and quickly go back to Canterlot to continue my studies.”
“I’m not sure it works like that.”
“Well whatever, so when are other girls going to leave this spa?”
“Who knows.”
They sat there for few moments in silence finishing their meals, after they both consumed every last bit of muffins.
“So Rainbow maybe you can show me around? Is there any nightclub here?”
Rainbows ears perked up and she put a cocky grin her muzzle.
“There sure is, and one of my best friends is a Dj there.”
“Cool I guess I’ll visit this place often during my stay, where is it?”
Rainbow stood up and waved her hoof in a gesture saying “follow me”. Blaze walked after her examining her body in the process.
‘She’s pretty well built, she must be an athlete, bolt made of three colors as cutie mark eh? I wonder what is it about, I guess it has something to do with speed, she’s actually quite pretty, also
Dat flank.’
“Here we are, this is..” Rainbow stopped her speech when she turned around realizing that Blaze was staring all this time on her rump.
“Hey eyes up here.” She said while pointing her hoofs to her eyes.
“Sorry, I couldn’t help it.”
Rainbow rolled her eyes and continued.
“This is it, club is called BlueBerry it’s the only nightclub in Ponyville, but it’s still quite amazing.”
Blaze examined the building very carefully, it looked all right from outside, what was noticeable about it was a big blue neon in shape of berry.
“Great, I was worried this place won’t have any clubs around.”
“Glad I could help.”
They both smiled at each other and then Blaze remembered that he still needs to meet other elements of harmony and start his studies of friendship, the faster he will start it, the faster he will end it.
“So you really don’t know when will they leave this spa?”
“Nope, not a clue.” Rainbow’s ears suddenly perked up.
“Oh my gosh, I forgot about something really important, sorry but I got to go.”
“Hey wait, you still didn’t show me where’s…”
Rainbow dashed (pun intended) away.
“Apple farm.” Blaze frowned and face hoofed.
‘Great, well I guess I can look for it myself, it can’t be so hard to find a bucking farm right?
Right?’
Meanwhile at the spa.
“Oh this is just marvelous darling.” Rarity laid in the spa bed while Aloe was giving her a massage.
“Ah am tellin ya’ll, after the hard day on the farm this can really be relaxing.” Applejack said while munching on some cucumber.
“Applejack you are not supposed to eat those.” Twilight said while levitating a book in front of her, getting a hooficure from two spa ponies.
“I wish Rainbow would be here she would enjoy this wing massage for sure, oh yes a little bit harder to the side please.” Lotus rolled her eyes presses harder on the spot Fluttershy suggested.
Suddenly all attention went towards Pinkie who started to have weird body tics.
“What is it Pinkie? Your senses are tingling?” Twilight asked
“Yes, there must be a new pony in town, oh my Celestia, this is so exciting, I didn’t throw a “Welcome to Ponyville “ party for a long time now, I wonder where he is, well he must be somewhere, I’m going to look for him, see ya girls.”
Before they could respond only thing that was left was a pink cloud in a shape of pony.
"Have you girls ever thought how would this mare act if she would get her hoofs on some caffeine?"
All mares in the room (including spa ponies) flinched at Rarity's suggestion, this pink hyperactive pony was banned from all cafes and other places which mostly serve coffe.
After few moments of silence spa ponies finished Twilights hooficure, she stood up and said.
“Well sorry girls, but I have to go already, I have some things to do back at the library.”
Applejack finished her second cucumber and suddenly stood up.
“Ah am also sorry, but there are some orchards of apple trees that need a solid buck.”
After saying their goodbyes to all mares present, Twilight and Applejack left spa going into their respective destinations.
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Ponyville
‘Why, why was I born with such terrible field orientation, how could I possibly get lost in this village?’
While trotting forward hoping to find apple farm by accident, he suddenly stopped perking his ears up.
‘What’s that noise?’
He turned around few times but didn’t see anything he shrugged it off at first but then he heard it again, this time he also saw small dot in the sky.
”watch out!.”
Blaze sat on his haunches trying to recognize this noise, he then realized that this small dot was getting closer and closer, it suddenly became a Pegasus.
“WATCH OUT I CAN’T STOP!”
He finally heard that clear and wanted to move away immediately, but then he realized something, if he won’t do anything this Pegasus will crush into ground, not only that, judging from voice it was a mare, he's gentlecolt side suddenly took control, as far as he hated himself for this idea, he tensed his muscles and waited for the impact to come, and it did come, like a gray bolt of lightning.
After tumbling good 10 meters back from the place of crash they finally stopped. Blaze slowly opened his eyes, as he was immediately greeted by the huge pain in his limbs and his back.
“Oh my gosh are you okay? I’m so sorry, why didn’t you move away.”
Blaze looked up and took a good look at his assassin. Like he predicted it was a mare, she had a gray coat and blond mane, what caught his attention mostly was the fact that she had crossed gold eyes.
“Well I’ve been better, but how could I possibly move away and let such a beautiful mare hurt herself.”
She blushed at his comment and said.
“What’s your name? I haven’t seen you around.”
“That’s because I’m new in town, name’s Midnight Blaze.”
“Nice to meet you Blaze, my name is Ditzy Doo, but everypony here calls me Derpy Hooves.” She slightly frowned at the last words of her statement, which didn’t go unnoticed by Blaze.
“What’s the matter?”
“It’s just that, well I often act clumsy and break stuff, but it isn’t my fault, I was just born that way you know, and this nickname was given me because of it.”
“Hey I think it sounds pretty cute actually.”
Her eyes went wide and she looked directly at him, well at least her left eye did.
“You really think so?”
“Yeah of course, also do you mind me asking something?”
“Sure what is it?”
“Could you maybe get off me?” It was then that Derpy realized all this time she was on top of him, she immediately blushed hard and jumped away.
“Sorry about that.”
“Hey no problem.” Blaze flinched a little, feeling another wave of pain going through his body. His whole body was covered in small bruises, pain was annoying, but he still was glad it was him who looked like that and not her.
“Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry, it is all my fault.” Derpy didn’t know what to do at first but then she got an idea.
“I have many bandages and other first aid kit things at my house and it’s not that far away.”
“Crushing into me, laying on top of me and now you are inviting me to your house? Sheesh girl, maybe take me on a date first at least?”
Derpy muzzle was now of pure red.
“WHAT, no I didn’t mean it this way, I-I-I mean you are very handsome and kind, but I…”
“Ha ha ha, calm down Derpy I was just kidding.”
Derpy took a long sigh and turned around in the direction of her house, meanwhile Blaze was following her by her side, after few moments of silence he said.
“Thanks for the compliment by the way.”
Derpy then realized what she said back then and tried to hide her face under her mane which made Blaze chuckle a bit.
‘This mare sure is interesting.’
