Chapter 1: Arrival

The train from Canterlot is pulling into the Ponyville station, seeing as you can hear the breaks screeching. It's something you've heard quite a few times in the last week, seeing as this is the fifth train ride you've taken on your way too Ponyville. You heard that it's the only town in Equestria that has a place for everyone, and where you can fit in no matter what your special talent is. Only one thing that differs from you and every other pony that's had the same idea you do. You have no idea what your cutie mark even means, and that's one other reason why you wanted to come to this town. You think, that if you hang out with the ponies here you might be able to figure it out.

Looks like the train stopped while you were going over why you were even on the train, seeing as the conductor was prodding you with his hoof. Apparently you're the last one on the train, as it was fairly late it wouldn't be leaving until the morning anyways, but you get off nonetheless, you want to use this time to look around the town. You step off the train, and see that the station is already empty, ponies must have been really eager to go home. From first glance Ponyville seems like a little Hamlet, even though it's so close to the capitol, from the front of the station you can see the local farm over a hill, the library, a cloud house, the Everfree, and a house that looked like it was made out of gingerbread. What an interesting town you think to yourself as you start walking towards the hotel where you were staying until you found a house for yourself. You quickly readjusted your saddlebags, as they had begun to slip off due to how much was stuffed in them, and right after, you began the walk to the hotel.

Well, you would have, if you weren't suddenly staring into a pink pony's face. You didn't know what to do, seeing as she had a very large smile on her face, which, you had to admit, was fairly cute. You've never been so happy that you had an almost unbeatable poker face until this moment. The pink pony that was staring you down then blinked, and frowned. "You're good at staring contests! We should do that again sometime!" the pink pony shouted, "Oh yeah, are you new to Ponyville, because I've never seen you before, and I know everyone in Ponyville, yet I've-". She was cut off by an orange hoof, and for the first time you realized that there were other ponies around you and her. "Pinkie, remember what we said about talking ponies' ears off?" the orange mare said with a southern accent, "I apologize for my friend here, she's always like this I'm afraid". Now you knew that the two of them were friends. "It's fine, it's actually nice to meet some kind ponies, even if one of them is a bit energetic." you say while backing away from the pink one, who at some point had gotten so close that your nuzzles were touching. "So you are new to Ponyville! That means I have to throw you a party!" the pink pony yelled yet again, "Oh but wait, it's too late for that, but we could do it tomorrow!" While the orange pony put her hoof to her face, you simply gave the pony a smile, knowing that might be a good place for you to meet the people you're now living with.

You wake up in your hotel room stiff and sore, but that's what you get for getting a room in the cheapest hotel in the entire town. You take a quick shower, then headed out to find that pink pony you met last night. You would have asked for the two girls names, but they rushed off before you had a chance. As you start making your way to the own square, thinking that if you go there you might see her pass by on her way to work, where ever that might be. Though it seems like that won't be necessary as you are suddenly bombarded by a pink blur, who seemingly fell out of the sky. "Hey, you're that new pony from yesterday, I forgot to introduce myself! I'm Pinkie Pie, nice to meet you!" she yelled while she splayed out across your back, bending like a professional gymnast. "Hi Pinkie, I'm Chocolate Wings, but most of my friends call me Choco, and I guess you can too if you want" you respond, knowing that it's common to tell someone your name after they tell you their's.

"Okie Dokie, then I'll call you Choco! Now, come with me, I have a surprise for you!" Pinkie said while tugging you away.

                              ______________________________________________________

You quickly arrived at the gingerbread house you saw last night, but now you see that it's a bakery called Sugar Cube Corner. Pinkie then drags you towards the door, obviously this is where she wanted to bring you, maybe she was going to bake you a cupcake or something. As you entered the bakery you hear the pink pony whisper, "Now!"

"SURPRISE!"

Suddenly the lights turned on and you saw a group of ponies, almost enough to fill the store, around you. Each of them had huge grins on their face. "Welcome to Ponyville! Ponyville, this is Choco! Choco, this is Ponyville!" Pinkie said while wrapping her foreleg around your neck. You managed to see the orange mare from before standing among the crowd. As the party got underway you decided to go talk to her, but it seems that Pinkie had other plans for you.

"Time to introduce you to my friends!" she said while dragging you over to a small group of ponies

"This is Rainbow Dash!" she said while pointing to a cyan Pegasus with a rainbow mane, who nodded in response.

"This is Twilight Sparkle!" she said while pointing to a purple Unicorn, who also nodded.

"This is Rarity!" she said while pointing to a very well dressed white Unicorn, who struck a pose when she was called.

"This is Applejack!" she said while pointing at the familiar orange mare.

"And this!" she grabbed something before finishing, "is Fluttershy!"

Fluttershy was another Pegasus, who had a light yellow coat and beautiful pink hair. Although she looked amazing, the same could be said for all of them. You felt a little bit of joy when you realized you now knew 6 beautiful mares, and from what you could tell, none were accounted for. Oh well, it just means more for you! you think to yourself while you began to talk with each of them.

                              ______________________________________________________

The party lasted almost all day, and in the end it was you, and the six mares you had been personally introduced to. Then came the question you had prepared yourself for, "What's your cutie mark stand for?" you were asked by a young filly surprisingly. You had no idea when she got here, but you turned to respond anyways.

"I have no idea, it just showed up when I was sleeping one night" you say, apparently loud enough for everyone to hear.

"What? But dear, how could you not know, even at your age?" asked Rarity.

"Well, I've never found one thing I'm exceptionally good at, but the things that are present in the mark, and definitely some of my better talents."

Then you were suddenly being looked at by Pinkie, who was obviously inspecting your cutie mark. "Are you good at flying, making chocolate, and farming?"

"Yeah, how did you guess, usually people say something like making candy apples, but you hit the nail right on the head" you say, completely dumbfounded as to how she was able to guess it so easily.

"WE SHOULD MAKE CHOCOLATE FOR EVERYPONY!" she yelled out, causing you to take flight out of fear.

"Okay, but I don't know if this place will have everything I'll need" you say, being completely honest about it.

                              ______________________________________________________

After around an hour later you emerged from the bakery's kitchen, accompanied by the sweet smell of fresh chocolate, and one very tired party pony. "Chocolate's done!" you say, energetically to the group of ponies that had waited to get a taste of your chocolate. You quickly set it down and then ran back into the kitchen and brought even one a glass of milk, telling them to drink it if the chocolate was too strong or too hot. Although it seemed like they all liked it, you did feel a bit nervous for some reason that you couldn't quite place.

"Oh. My. Gosh! These are delicious! How did you learn to make it like this?!" Rainbow Dash asked after finishing her first mouthful.

"Well, I've always been able to make it like that."

"What happened to Pinkie by the way, she looks like she's actually tired for once" Applejack asked.

"It was pretty hard work, so I think she got tired out from all of it."

"So why aren't you tired?"

"I have great stamina, I always have, it helps when doing things like this or when flying fast."

"You fly fast? How fast?" Rainbow budded into your conversation at the mention of speed.

"Well, I've never really measured it, but from what I've been told I'm extremely fast" you answer while floating slightly above the ground.

"You ever think of joining the Wonderbolts?"

"Please don't mention them, they're one of the reasons I decided to come here" you answer while hanging your head.

"Why, they're the fastest and best flyers in the world, why do you make it sound like you're avoiding them?"

"Because I am"

Suddenly the door opens, and a light blue stallion walks in. "Hey, do you guys have any pie here, I'm really..." he begins.

"Hey! Finally found you, why'd you come here, we only wanted you to join us, you didn't need to run from us!"

Suddenly you felt all eyes on you, obviously looking for some explanation as to why Soarin was looking for you, and why you would run from a chance to join the Wonderbolts.

How's the story so far? I decided to create another story so I could hone my writing skills before trying to make a sequel.
