(Second attempt at starting... hopefully it goes well. ^^) It's another wonderful, sun shiny day in the wonderful town of Ponyville. The town's ponies are lively and friendly, and without a care in the world. It's also as productive as any other day... ponies coming in and going out of various shops, some sharing quality time with their loved ones, the young colts and fillies learning and doing their best in school. Their joyful sounds of laughter somewhat echo through the air. One may think that nothing, or nopony would be able to ruin this day... Until a twinkle in the sky can be seen... Falling at beyond terminal velocity towards Earth, a strange sort of pony seems to be descending at a high rate towards the ground. In other words... falling. Falling head first as he faces the ground... yet not a single utter or scream comes from it, as if it's not afraid. Either it's not afraid of heights, dying, or maybe it has a way to make it to the ground safely... of course, the only ponies that might notice are those that tend to look up at the sky a lot... and Dark Star, the pony in question, figures that hardly anypony would be looking up right now, since there's no reason to... plus, a teeny-tiny black dot in the sky might be a little hard to see... as the stallion wears a jet-black tight-fitting suit. It's almost as if the material of the article of clothing is a second skin for him. His helmet piercing right through the air below him as he descends. The said helmet seeming to come to a literal point on both the front and back... the part of the head piece in front of his face being longer than the back 'half'. The unknown town below him becoming more and more visible with almost every second of his fall... his front hooves retracted and his hind legs straightened out, as he gracefully continues to dive into the ground. Once he reaches a close enough distance from ground level, he discontinues his dive and spreads his limbs, facing his whole body toward the ground, the air resistance slowing down his fall a little bit... then, with just a single thought process... four large, black, ribbon like objects shoot out of his back, forming large loops that seem to just suddenly emerge. From below, it could look like he suddenly grew tentacles out of his back... but that's hardly these things' purpose. As they seem to act as his parachute, and they do their job quite nicely... as he seems to be lowering into a farm area. Until a bird suddenly flies by and distracts Star's concentration... the parachute suddenly retracting, and he falls straight down... smashing through the roof of a red barn and landing in a hay bail that was just large enough to break his fall... he groans, as the sudden impact did hurt regardless... (Just imagine the guy in the attached photos in pony form... ALL OC'S WELCOME! )

Rocky The party room at Sugar Cube Corner was all set! Bright, colorful decorations hung from the ceiling and festival party banners covered the walls. The largest banner was white and had the words 'WELCOME TO THE REUNION' painted on it. Seated on a wooden stool at a table laden with a pink birthday cake and party favors was a pile of rocks three rocks high, wearing a party hat as he examined the guest list. "Hmmm! Let's see here!" Rocky said in his gruff voice. "We gots me, of course. Mr. Turnips, Madam LeFlour, Sir Lintsalot and our hostess, Pinkie Pie. Can't wait till my cousin Tom rolls in! I don't getta see ol' Tom much since he got so famous. It'll be great to catch up with all the old gang! Wonder if we'll have dancin' tonight? Kinda hard to have a good dance when we've only gots two goils and four guys. I don't wanna dance with Pinkie Pie, that goil's all over duh dance floor! How about yous, Madam LeFlour, would yous wanna dance wit me?" -
[[ IMPORTANT: Please read this topic () first and ask all your questions there before you decide on joining this RP. ]] Sitting on her desk in the office, she reviewed the recruitment note that was going to go on flyers and some posters around town. The Mayor made sure that the requirements were clear and direct to the point. Satisfied that everything is in order, she sends the recruitment note to the printers for the final printing which would hopefully done in a few hours. By the end of the day she'd have posters all over Ponyville for everypony to see. Job Opening at Town Hall Title: Executive Assistant to the Mayor Requirements:A pleasing personality, highly organized, punctual and can work with little supervision. Must be highly motivated to work in a very stressful environment and be able to handle critical tasks with utmost efficiency. You must also be able to write daily reports and submit them regularly to the Mayor at the end of the day. Pay: To be discussed when you meet qualifications. Where: Mayor's Office, Town Hall When: Starts at 1:00 PM until 5:00 PM. Bring your two copies of your resume. Writing down the recruitment note was one thing, but choosing the right pony for the job was another. She could tell that for the next few days, it was going to be a chore choosing the perfect assistant. She sighed as she looked at the clock on the wall. It was just about time for lunch so she left for her favorite Cafe near the marketplace. By the time she got back to the office, one of the printers informed her that they had already printed several posters and they were ready to be put up around town. She gave the go signal as a couple of worker ponies began to put up the posters in key areas around town in places like, outside the Town Hall, along the marketplace and some in the park. The day ended without a hitch. All the posters and flyers were in place. The Mayor went home and prepared for the next day. It was going to be interesting to see how Ponies would react to her ads. She just hoped to find the right one and soon. The yearly audit was about to start and she needed an assistant soon. The next day, having done her routine reports and other mayorly tasks, she waited for applicants to pour in. She sipped her coffee as she watched the clock on the wall strike one o'clock.

(OOC: since most of the threads the con ponies have been invited into are dying and one is waiting on chapter 1 to end before they can join, we have decided to grab the unicorns by the horns and start an original thread for the unicorns you love to hate) It was a nice pleasant Saturday morning in Ponyville Park, with Snails and other foals watching a Daring Do puppet show near the Pavilion. Everypony was relaxing from the recent excitement of the end of this years Iron Pony and chatting about the events. Suddenly a strange chuffing, boinging and wheezing sound came from the street. Everypony knew the train tracks were the other way so it could not be that, so what?... A fire engine red technomagere' steampunk wagon that was all too familiar to the citizens of Ponyville came chuffing into the park and wheezed to a stop next to the pavilion on the opposite side of the trees from the Daring Do show. Panels added to the side suddenly sprung open like Trixie's Wagon, into the shape of a sellers booth, with little flags emblazoned with the Flim-Flam Brothers logo waving on the corners. The cream colored unicorn Flam took a deep breath as he looked out into the busy park. His comb floated over in a green nimbus and gave his red and white mane one last combing. "Well Flam, given that we werent' rode out of town on a rail or even hurt by the citizenry during the Iron Pony last week. I have to say the odds are good we can come back and profit handsomely this time." For a moment his lips took on an infatuated quiver, thinking of the kiss a month before, honestly bestowed by a certain orange Earth pony. Perhaps they could bury the hatchet this time, -and hopefully not in his head... Snapping back to awareness with a start, Flim grinned at his brother "I'm ready Dear Brother Flam, Are you? In 3..2..1 Aaaand Dance!" Their latest theme song blared from a record player in their booth while Flim jumped out and began dancing. "Lookee what we got here Brother of mine, Ponies just sitting and frittering away their time!" Flim zipped on over to a pony dozing in the shade and lifted up her chin, tisk-ing critically. "Are they tired? Just worn out? Even lacking get up and go? Perhaps they havent' heard we got something NEW to show!" "Something to wake you up, give you Go, Go, Go! Something Sweet! something you'll think is a treat! Something we promise you want to know!" As he danced, he pointed to each skeptical pony nearby in the park. "What is this product? What is this miracle we will show? Come closer friend, Come closer still. We promise this time is not a shill. It's not a con! It's not a sugar pill! Want to feel energized and not ill?" He danced back to stand beside a magically powered drink cooler and winked before singing the finish. "Its... the.... Super Speedy, Elixir, Six Thousaaaaanddddd!" With that, he tapped his cane on the lid, which sprang open, revealing glass soda-type bottles in a variety of flavors. "Yes, WE, the AMAZING World Famous Flim Flam Brothers, have scoured Equestra to bring YOU, yes YOU! The finest, fastest, zippiest, get-goingest, Unbelievable Energy Drink, Nonpareil!" Who among you wants to be the Lucky first customer for the measly price of just... Two Bits?" -
(NOTE: My portrayal of Luffy is mostly as of the beginning of the series... and NO, I will not be using my usual and main OC... hopefully that's okay with you all. ^^) Yesterday sure was interesting... as if being in some fancy get up in some strange town that seemed to have royal qualities wasn't enough. Well, at least, most of the ponies there seemed to have a lot of class... the only reason he even considered himself as a part of the whole thing was because... well, what else? The food was just fantastic! He managed to sneak a few of their meals, and chowed down like there was no tomorrow! The cider... it was indescribable, but unfortunately, the pony had eaten so much and drank so much cider, that he managed to fall asleep in cider itself... almost literally, as he found himself fallen asleep inside of a barrel of cider... he even closed the barrel up as to have a great hiding place so that no one noticed that he took anything. In fact, the barrel was deemed as so comfy, that he decided to sleep there for a whole night! Until, of course... he fell down one of Canterlot's waterfalls. As of now... it is yet another fine day, this time somewhere slightly southeast of Ponyville along a stream near both the Everfree Forest and Ponyville itself. A lone barrel seems to be floating about just above the surface of the water... almost to the point of it being completely random that the barrel is even there. The container's contents of course are unknown, and for whatever reason, it found its way within said stream...

The day was crisp and cool, the summer sun had decided to take the day hiding behind clouds (or rather the weather service had conspired to make it happen) and out in the woods near ponyville a young pinto colt was jumping around, swinging a toy wooden sword at "pirates" unfortunately, though he stumbled, crashing into a nearby crab-apple tree ans was rewarded with two apples bonking him on the head "Curse-ed Tree, your siding with the enemy!" he exclaimed and hit it with his sword... which rewarded him with another crab-apple falling on his head... "ow... stupid tree wont play fair..." he muttered, rubbing his head where the hard crab-apples had hit him when they fell...

(Okay I'm back, sorry for the delay) Diamond Tiara was growing more and more frustrated with every passing moment. She watched as patiently as she could, hopping on her hooves, as Sweetie Belle attempted to command the cat to release its hostage, the precious tiara. She bit her hoof, a bead of sweat forming on her brow as the cat walked over to Sweetie. And then it happened! She took the tiara off and put it down. Diamond breathed a sigh of relief. "Whew. Finally!" She walked over to Sweetie Belle to get her tiara back. She'd have to give the girl a break in school from now on, after she worked so hard. And then the cat batted the tiara away again. Her eye twitched. A snarling, growling sound rose in her throat as her face twisted into a grim scowl of rage. Finally, she couldn't hold it in anymore. "RRRRAAAAAAAAGH! I don't believe it! You were so close and you blew it!" she screamed, all her frustration rising to the surface. She spun round to spot the tiara, bouncing back towards Ponyville, likely now covered in dents and scratches. Who knows where it could end up if they didn't catch it? "That's it!" she screeched. "I'm putting up a bounty! 50 BITS TO THE PONY THAT BRINGS ME THAT TIARA!"

Savory was intently working on a recipe for a dish called the "Divinity Souffle" that she had graciously received from her great-grandmother after years of prodding and trying to convince her that she had enough experience in front of an oven. Of course, the recipe arrived only three days ago, and Savory had to scramble to gather all the ingredients, especially since a couple were so rare that they were only sold in Canterlot. Her gaze and mind was so focused on the task, that she had to exercise great restraint not to jump at the sound of her doorbell jingling. Her heart was not excused from the start, however, and it pounded hard against her chest as she trotted over to the kitchen door and peeked through the glass. There were three ponies standing in her dining room, and one seemed very familiar... "...! Mayor Mare?! She's here? Oh dear, oh dear, I musn't keep her waiting!" Taking a few seconds to dust the fine coating of flour her coat had accumulated off of herself, Savory straightened her mane and cautiously edged her way around the door, closing it gently with her magic so as to not deflate 6 hours of hard work in an instant. "Mayor Mare, it is an honor to see you here today," the mare nodded her head toward the white-maned mare, beaming. "Please excuse the condition of my appearance, I have been working since sunrise to make something very intensive." Spotting the two stallions beside the mayor, Savory nodded toward them as well. "It is also a pleasure to meet you both as well. Tell me, what brings you all here to Ambrosia Winds?" -
Okay, I've started a new RP with The Mayor. It's an RP about a job opening where the Mayor is looking for an Executive Assistant to help her with the daily tasks needed to be done in town hall. If possible I'd like this to be a long term RP and relationship with the mayor in other future RPs, but we'll see. For now the thread is open, but once four people have replied and posted I will close it to avoid confusion and congestion. From those four the Mayor will choose an assistant based on their resume and/or experience. Heck I might even turn this into a competition but we will see how it goes out depending on who joins. No foals, fillies or colts please! Stallions or Mares only, thanks! The thread is here: http://www.canterlot...assistant-open/

Peppermint quietly yet briskly made her way into Ponyville, pulling a rather bulky yet antique-looking wooden construct on wheels along with her. The mint-green Earth pony's white and lilac neat and curly mane bounced as she trotted along the road, her curled tail following suit. On her face was an expression of content and subdued excitement. She pulled the cart over to a rather open and easily-accessible area in the centre of Ponyville, or at least that was where she thought she had arrived to in the town. Walking around to the side of the cart, she nudged the covers off and stood up up the shelves. On each shelf were several containers of small white mints. Each container was a different colour, and they were arranged in colour order. "Well, now to wait." Peppermint sighed to herself, before hurrying around to the alleged "back" of the cart and lifting up a small sign that read Mints! "It certainly seems like a nice place here... I wonder if the ponies are as nice as I've heard..." she wondered to herself, out loud. -
Renliss and I are planning on holding a spelunking tour of a rather impressive cave that Pierce found while in the foothills east of ponyville. We are looking for ponies interested in a little slice of adventure, without going completely off the map.(There is a map of the cave, mostly) Ponies from all backgrounds are welcome, so long as they are capable of listening to instructions. The spelunking tour will take most of the day, and ponies will be required to bring their own food; there is a natural spring inside the cave, so water will be plenty. Ponies must also be prepared to make a short walk through the fringes of the Everfree Forest. The meeting place will be under a large old oak tree on the eastern border of ponyville. Feel free to post here if youre interested/have ideas List of ponies attending, and their role: Pierce: Spelunking Leader Silver Heart: Assistant Spelunker Jade: Spelunker Security Cloudchaser: Spelunker Geary Twist: Spelunker Herbal Cure: Spelunker Ironmane: Spelunker Insight: Spelunker Dunder Blust: Spelunker Security Here is the map of the explored tunnels.

"Have you heard about the monster lurking in the depths of Everfree?" a mare gossiped idly to a nearby friend. "You're gonna need to be a touch more specific..." the other mare started with a laugh. "Far as I hear that forest is full of nothing but creepy monsters." The first mare shook her head. "No, this one is different. It's something new. Word is that it's twice as big as an Ursa Minor with the voracious hunger of a timberwolf and cunning nearly on match with a griffon!" she said in a boisterous. "Yeah right. Nothing like that could be out there. You're just tryin' to scare me," the second mare shouted "It's true, believe me. Word is that any foolish enough to wander too close to the forest these days gets snatched up by the beast and disappears forever!" the first mare started. Unbeknownst to the two mares, a short distance behind them, listening in was a young filly. Ardent Fate was her name, and unlike most fillies with homerwork, colts and cutie marks as their primary concern, this little filly had other ambitions. In her head, young Fate was a valiant knight, destined for greatness. She wandered through Equestria, hoping to spread her knightly virtues throughout the land. Usually it didn't go exactly well, but the filly was hopeful that this place would prove different. "I shall slay this loathsome beast!" Fate announced as she suddenly stepped forward. "Wha-? Who...?" the first mare started, surprised to see the filly. "What are you talking about, little filly?" the second spoke, her head tilted. "The monster. I leave now to claim its fleeting life upon my valiant blade!" Fate shouted out, skipping ahead. "Wait, that thing isn't real, is it?" the second mare spoke, nodding toward the city. "Hey, kid! I don't know where you found that, but it's not a toy!" Fate immediately started to run away. She hated it when adults eyed her sword like that. "I shall return once the beast has been slain!" she announced. "Hey, wait!" the mare called after her, looking worried. "She's just playing around," her friend said, shrugging. "She'll come back on her own." "Yeah... I guess..." the other mare started. Meanwhile, Fate continued forward undeterred, moving in the direction of the Everfree forest. SHe was pretty sure that nopony was following her, but maybe, perhaps she was wrong. -
"Oh, no I wasn't upset," Pinkie insisted, "I was just... suspicious. I wasn't gonna be upset until you actually cheated me, and if you don't have any plans for doing that, then there's nothing to worry about, right? Uh, just a minute, lemme deal with these other ponies, I'll be right back." She grabbed a cookie and shoved it into Sweet's mouth to distract her. "Here, have one on the house." She trotted over to the newcomer. "Hay there, it's not a bad time. It's never a bad time. NEVER!" She said it with significantly more force than was necessary. She waved a hoof at Apple Bloom as well. "Hi Apple Bloom, how's it goin'? Oh! Are you all gonna throw Granny Smith a big party this year?" She glanced back at Sweet. "'Cause I could totally help you out if are." It would give her the perfect opportunity to show Sweet the ropes too. -
Wednesdays in Ponyville, for unknown reasons, were unusually crowded at the marketplace. Maybe it was because the weather team usually scheduled sun, maybe because of the two-for-one sales all the merchants had, maybe because everyone thought no one else would think to shop midweek. Whatever the reason, there was a huge crowd in the Ponyville Marketplace today, with a single beige earth pony standing just outside the edges of it, shivering despite the warm summer sun overhead. Her tan-and-pink mane, brushed fluffy, tumbled over her shoulders in long waves, and her huge saddlebags (empty as yet) halfway covered the ivy vines that decorated her flank. Whether Lovestone liked it or not, she needed food, and she needed it today. And since her mother wasn't able to, the young mare had to shop for the both of them herself, even though she hated large crowds and avoided them as much as possible. What she wouldn't give for a pair of pegasus wings to simply fly overhead. She stood indecisively, knowing it had to be done but not wanting to start. Just as she thought she'd better go home and try again tomorrow, she flinched as a strange pony bumped into her from behind. "Ow!"

Celestia's sun was just reaching it's apex as the little pinto made his way to the lake just outside of Ponyville. He'd spend the day looking around hoping to find something unusual to impress his (hopefully) Special Somepony, but as usuall ended up spending the way wandering around aimlessly munching on the common flowers he found. The summer heat was starting to get to Pip as he reached the lake, smiling broadly while he slipped off his neckerchief and backed up a ways... he charged at the water and leapt, making a huge splash. The foal paddled around, enjoying the feeling of the cool water flowing through his fur and over his skin beneath, most ponies thought he was Mad, or at least a little odd, enjoying the water like he did, but back in trottingham he had grown up with a private pool and his adventurous streak... or perhaps his rebellions streak against "ponies don't swim" made him eager to learn and since then enjoyed it daily back home and more than a few times since his family moved to ponyville. Pip dove down, gently scooping up a stone and returning to the surface, with a flick of his neck, he sent it skipping across the surface of the lake, wondering once more why the other ponies didnt like water...

It was early in the morning, the pegsai had not long cleared the last of the clouds from the sky, and ponyville was just starting to awaken... well most of it was starting to awaken... A small Pinto foal had been up a long time, writing and re-writing a note to attach to the flowers he had gathered the day before for his potential special somepony... finally he felt he had it done... Pip carefully looped the ribbon around the card, the flowers were a combination of Cherry Blossoms, Apple Blossoms, and accents of Pussy willows, with a single red rose in the center. they were tied with a yellow ribbon and had a card attached, the card, and of course the flowers, were addressed to "The Most Wonderful Filly in Equestria" in a beautiful penmanship that few ponies could compare to. The foal carefully stashed the bouquet back under this neckerchief and headed out. The air was still a little cool and crisp as he trotted down the nearly-empty streets of ponyville. He stopped at the large building who's windows showcased so many different styles of clothing; the Carousel Boutique, he knew Sweetie Belle stayed there most of the time since her parents traveled so much --- and he hoped it was the case now since he had no clue where SB's parents actually lived... (unfortunately had he bothered to walk around back he would have seen the guest room's window open and the room empty, meaning the filly was not staying with her sister... but Pip hadn't thought about checking...) Pip reached under his neckerchief and brought out the flowers and very carefully placed them on the doorstep, then rang the bell frantically, likely waking up half the neighborhood instead of just Rarity, after a moment he ran and dove behind the shrubs on the far side of the road, too scared to confront Sweetie Belle but wanting to see her reaction if she came out... he made a small hole just large enough to see though... ...and it was now that the foal mentally face-hoofed... he had forgotten to sign his name! There was no way SB would have any clue which of her "surely dozens of suitors" the flowers had come from! he wanted to kick himself but he was too busy lieing on his belly watching the door of the boutique to see what happened...

Haywire As the bell rang to end classes for the day, Haywire bolts out of the school house. The rust colored blank flank filly had big plans and she wanted to get right to them. "I'm goin' explorin'! I'm goin' explorin'!" the blonde filly said as she skipped along the trail. Not watching where she was going, she collides with Silver Spoon, causing both fillies to tumble to the ground. "Oh my! I'm SO surry! Didn't see ya thar, Silver Spoon! Here, let me help ya up!"

"And now I sound like some kind of sappy, sentimental loser..." Awk-waaaard. If it -wasn't- a gryphon, Ignition might have decided to mock her a bit. But the thing about gryphons, the main things that kind of defined being a gryphon, were strength, talons, and a beak. And the thing about pegasi, the main defining characteristics of a pegasus, was that they are lightweight and kind of easy to break. The latter should not, in fact, make a point of unduly aggrivating the former, for the math simply does not favour those of the latter party. So, she tried to transition the subject, with a little sympathy thrown in. "Well, hay, it's not like you're a loser just because you don't ignore your own feelings forever, they're just a part of being alive. I mean, have you met Alice Hoofer? Dude might be the überpferd of heavy metal, but off-stage, the dude is zen." Of course, changing topics, or even excersizing tact, weren't things that Ignition usually did. Did the gryphon even like Alice Hoofer? Seriously, who didn't like "School's Out"?

"Nothing is more important than the concern of the Ponies in Ponyville," she said proudly. "You could have just come right in. Sure I may be doing some paperwork, but I always give time to those who wish to see me, especially if its a concern about this town." Hearing about the Unicorn's loss made the Mayor almost want to hug her but instead she had to do something to at least make the unicorn know that Ponyville is a very accommodating place. Sure, there were a few rotten apples in the marketplace but someone like her, with snowcones as a business would surely liven the place. I'm sorry about what you lost, but I'm sure a lot of Ponies can help you here. As for starting your business, I may know a few Ponies who might be able to loan you some bits to get started. You might want to talk to Filthy Rich. He's one of the most successful entrepreneurs in town. Don't let the name fool you, though it sounds intimidating, he's a good and honest businesspony at heart and a family pony at that. If you want I can setup a meeting for you two. He usually drops by the Town Hall to check the local business newsboards. I'll make sure to talk to him tomorrow.. As for a place for you to setup shop, there are a few empty tents in the marketplace that are usually open to any roving pony merchants. I'll be glad to let you use one of them for the time being, they're right in the middle of the marketplace so you'll bound to have a lot of customers." "Yes, she's somewhat of a celebrity but she likes to lay low and bury herself with her books in the library." The Mayor chuckled. "Go ahead and visit her, I'm sure if it's books you'll get her attention easily. As for books, I'm not really much of a chooser. But I mostly read fiction, and the occasional Daring-Do novel. I read books in my free time to alleviate the stress from time to time. I'm definitely looking forward to your bookstores launch! If you want I can give a speech at your opening to draw the crowd in. Oh and make sure that you place your posters at the bulletin boards around the market and Town Hall for everypony to see."

Rose felt so very happy for the praise that Caramel, Bramble, and now a third pony were giving to her roses. She outright blushed as Caramel named her roses amazing, turning her head away so she wouldn't show the sudden redness on her cheeks. She gave a brief smile to Caramel and Bramble before turning her attention to Arctic. "My, my, hello there! How nice to meet you! My name is Rose, but my friends often call me Roseluck, and I like to think that everyone is a friend I haven't met yet! What might your name be?" She gave another smile. She glanced around, making sure the ponies around her were treating her roses nicely, but everything seemed fine. At least, it was till Bramble fell on the ground! She reached up to touch his face with her hoof, a worried expression on her face. "Are you all right? You didn't hurt yourself, did you? Oh, I hope not!" Rose hated it when ponies got hurt - and for him to fall on her property! how terrible!

The teacher had just announced the students homework and the end of class, most of the foals were packing up their books and heading out, all except one... The pinto's eyes had lingered, much of the day, on another filly, as usuall he had tried to speak to her, but when he did his brain would feel like it came loose in his head and his stomach would get queasy while his legs turned to jelly... fortunately she was one of the first students to leave, so he was able to get his brain to snap back into it's metaphorical socket in his skull and he started taking his books and notes and placing them in his saddlebags... But as he did his eyes drifted to the desk the filly had been sitting in, thankfully the effect of the memory was not the same as actually seeing her... he continued putting his stuff away, including the latest issue of a magazine he had been reading during the more boring parts of the lesson. Pip gently hit, well tapped, his head against the desk " 's not fair" he said in his strong cockney accent "it's just not..." Around him the lights all clicked out while a spotlight appeared over him There... is... this... Filllllllly... When she's around I just act silly How can I know what to say when I cant even ask the time of day... How can I find the words... There is something here, so deep inside something that I really dont care to hide, But no matter how hard I try All I can do is look, and sigh... ...Is ...This ... Love? Or is it something more? Is this a bridge I must cross? Is it a lock upon a door? I.. am... at... a loss... What... does... it... meeeeeeaaaaaaannnnnnnnn? As the last note of the song ended and the room returned to pip's mind, he sighed "if only I knew the words..." he muttered, closing his saddlebags.

Colton was feeling rather relaxed at this point, having seen other contestants make their showcase, he saw that there was really nothing to it...That was until he was up next. "Sparks? Is there a Sparks the sparrow here?" The coordinator blurted out to the whole crowd, it was at this point that Colton's legs locked up, he wasn't moving. Sparks flew down infront of him, waving a wing in his master's face...But to no effect. The sparrow prepared himself and gave Colton a wide slap across the face to wake him up, "Huh? What?" "Sparks the sparrow?" The coordinator asked again. Colton and Sparks made their way to the showcase area. The pegasus sucked in his gut, breathed heavily, composed himself and strode along with Sparks. "Okay...not to bad at all actually...just keep it together Colton." The pegasus stated in his head as he kept a brave face and a smile. Sparks wasn't having any trouble whatsoever, the bird proudly and confidently hovered alongside his master. And finally the two of them reached the end, "Well...that wasn't so bad." Colton breathed out, happy that that was over with. -

It was a nice, warm day in ponyville, a cool breeze was blowing and a few clouds drifted lazily accross the sky. It was still fairly early for a Saturday, so there were few ponies out an about, but this was what Pip wanted, he didnt really want a lot of ponies to see him... The little pinto was wearing a vest today, along with his neckerchief, on his back was a pair of appropriately-sized saddlebags, which were still laiden with supplies, it was clear he was planning to be gone most of the day, one might think he was taking a hike up into the mountains, or perhaps he was going to have a picnic down by the lakes... but he wasn't headed towards either one of those... he was headed towards the Everfree Wilderness...
