everypony had started talking about what had just happened but Dave went back to drinking his punch when Pinky Pie walked over to him. “why did you say all those mean things to Rainbow Dash?” she looked very upset but he shrugged. “i was voicing the truth. and the truth can hurt, as you can see im not the most muscular ......er pony so i have to use the truth to aid me in battle. trust me she looked like she was about to pound me if i stopped.” Pinky Pie just looked at him. “well you dident have to insult her.” he sighed. “well i did think that was going a bit far but i have to improvise cus some people take the truth as a complement so i have to bring in some back-up.” Pinky still looked sad. Dave sighed finally. “alright i’ll go find her and say sorry but if she starts back up on me then im going further then what i just did.” he could tell the look in his eye scared her a bit, he finally got away from the party and went looking for this ‘Rainbow Dash.’. he looked all over until he remembered she could fly then looked up to the clouds. he finally saw a rainbow color on one of them. “now, how do i get up there.” he then remembered the he was a unicorn and had magic. “alright lets see if this works...” he moved magic to his hooves and he started flouting lightly. “ok i just need to conttrol the out-put of magic going to my fee- er hooves and flout up there.” he started flouting up higher and higher until he was right next to the cloud. she had her eyes closed. “hmm.” he thought and tapped her with his hoof. “excuse me.” she jumped and almost fell when he caught her. “w-what the? how are you?” he looked at her. “magic. now im here to apologize for what i sed at the party.” she looked at him with mildly angry face. “why would you do that?” he shrugged. “i felt as tho i went a bit far with what i sed.” she raised a eye-brow at him and he sighed. “fine. i guess you cant accept it after what i sed i suppose.” he put his head down and started flouting to the ground when sher called. “wait! im sorry for bumping into you at the party. i should have watched where i was going.” he looked back up to her and flouted back up. “so....how are you..?” he looked at his hooves. “all im doing is sending a steady amount of magic to my hooves and pushing it out slow or fast enough to where i can give myself flight.” he looked back up to her and see she looked confused. “right... so how about we go back to the party?” she asked starting to hover. “sure.” they flew back down to sugar-cube corner and reentered. he took a side step to avoid being tackled by Pinky again and saw that Twilight had shown up. she saw him and smiled. “hey Dave! your back!” he nodded. “ya i had to take care of something but dont worry i worked it out.” he gave Rainbow Dash a side glance then looked back a Twilight. “so when did you arrive?” he asked walking over to her. “just a few moments ago, actually.” he looked back at Rainbow Dash. “i dont think i introduced myself yet. my name is Dave.” Rainbow smiled. “my name is Rainbow Dash. nice to meet ya!” he nodded. “likewise.” he looked back to Twilight. “i must say this party was a good idea. i got to know most of everyone in town.” everyone nodded. “hey Twilight have you seen Rarity?” Pinky bounced over after recovering from the fall. “i think she was working on a new outfit or something.” Dave guessed that Rarity was another one of there friends. “i wish Applejack could have came but she needed to get the apples harvested.” they all nodded. Dave went back over to the punch bowl and got another cup full. he sat down and sighed. “i guess i could get use to this if i cant go back...” he muttered taking a sip. something happened and the cup he was drinking our of shattered. “what the?” he looked around. “hmm.” he shrugged it off and put the peaces back together with his magic and set the cup down. “e-excuse me.” a soft voice called beside him. he turned to looked at a lightish pony that’s head was lowered a bit, “d-do you know where i can find Twilight Sparkle?” he nodded and looked towards where they were standing. “t-thanks.” he walked over to them and started talking about stuff. soon they walked over to him and introduced there friend. “Dave this is Fluttershy.” he nodded at her. “hi” she sed simply Next Chapter: surprise royalty Estimated time remaining: 51 Minutes
