Chapter 1

Mayor Mare sat at her desk, her hooves clutching a black feather quill. She moved swiftly, dipping the quill in ink, then scribbling at the parchment, then ink, and so on. Suddenly, a knock on the door made her jump and a messy blot appeared on the page. Muttering under her breath, the Mayor heaved herself out of the desk and opened the door. Applejack stood behind it, her hat in one of her front hooves and the other hoof rubbing her hind hooves. Basically, she looked nervous.

"Come in." The Mayor said, leading Applejack to her desk with a sigh.

"What is it, Applejack?" she queried.

"Well...you see...it's just that.." Applejack stammered.

"Oh just tell me already!" exclaimed the annoyed Mayor impatiently.

"It's Big Mac!" Applejack blurted. The mayor was taken aback but listened quietly.

"He's so quiet. He says "Yup and Nope but that's 'bout it! I ask you to find somepony who can help him out of his shel!" Applejack explained.

"I see. Well,I'll see what I can do." the Mayor replied.

"Thank ye so much, Mayor. I'll see you round." Applejack said gratefully.

"Hopefully you will, Applejack. Hopefully you will." The mayor looked thoughtful for a minute, but it almost immediately disappeared from her face. "Dismissed."

Applejack bowed,turned and walked out the door.

The mayor swiveled around on her wheelie chair and looked out the window. The gleaming orange sun was setting behind the houses. Ponies were returning from a long days work and putting their hooves up after the hard day. The Mayor studied the peaceful scene." Big Mac, eh?" she thought. "We'll see. We'll see."

sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

It had been a week since Applejack's visit. The mayor asked every pony she could think of, but no one had any luck getting Big Mac to be a little more social. She lay back with a sigh, her graying mane swishing. Suddenly, a timid looking pony came into the room. She had light blue skin and a silvery mane. She held the same thing that was shown on her cutie mark- a checklist.

"Uh, Mayor," the pony stuttered.

"What is it, Lyria?" asked the Mayor.

"There is one pony you haven't asked to help Big Mac yet," informed Lyria.

"Really?! Who's that?" the Mayor asked eagerly.

"It's..it's Derpy Hooves."
