I hid my flank as I slowly trotted through to trying to find a clothing store so I can hide my shame. As I look around i noticed even the youngest of fillies already have their cutie marks and this makes me wonder if Ill ever find what makes me special. After walking what felt like an eternity I stopped in front of a shop called the Carousel Boutique. As i sat there staring i thought to myself "this must be the place". I slowly stood back up and pushed on the door and slowly entered.
Soon after entering the beautiful store I heard somepony shouting so I ran to see whats wrong. I stopped at a doorway and peered in and laying on the floor was the most beautiful alabaster unicorn with a 3 gem cutie mark. I just stood there and admired her. She shouted again and it snapped me out of my trance. I ran into her small room and helped her up.
"Are you okay?" I Asked the pony who was on the floor.
"Oh yes I'm fine, thanks for asking, but who in the world are you and why have I never seen you before?" she asked
"I'm sunlight Sparkle and I'm new in town. Whats your name?"
"I'm Rarity its a pleasure to meet you darling. But why are you hiding your flank?"
"Oh ummm," was all I managed to say before I looked at the ground and started to sob.
'Darling is something wrong," asked Rarity.
I turned and showed her my blank flank as I began to sob even more. "I, I, I..." was all I managed to say. After a few minutes I was calm and continue to talk. "I'm from a village in the Everfree Eorest."
"THE EVERFREE FOREST" Rarity shout and looked at me terrified.
"Yes the Everfree Forest but there is no reason to be scared of me. See where I'm from you don't get cutie marks because everypony does everything the exact same so no one is special. I got sick of it so I left. But when i got into town I noticed even the smallest of fillies have their cutie marks and it just makes me feel so terrible."
"Oh darling that's nothing to be ashamed of, when you figure out what your good at your mark will show up just like everypony else's, and I got just the garment for you." she said, as she gave me a quick hug and trotted to a closet. The feeling of her touching me even the slightest bit made my cheeks turn a bright shade a red.
When she got back she present me with the nicest of blue suits. I quickly put it on and admired myself in her mirror.
"Rarity it is simply the most wonderful thing ever and it fits me perfect."
"Of course it does darling fashion is my thing. Now as for your little issue..." as she trailed off looking at my flank.
I noticed what she was looking at and I got her hint
"Now as I was saying, you can consider that garment a gift from me to you as a welcoming gift. You should go see Twilight, she lives in the town library which is a big building that looks like a tree. If any pony can help you figure out who you are it will be her."
"Thank you again Rarity" was the last thing I said before trotting out of the store.
