Minion P.O.V.

Nastasia groaned as she sat up. The blue-skinned secretary felt her forehead. Good. No bruises or anything else. She blinked once, and her surroundings swam into view. She registered bright-green apple trees sprouting ruby-red apples, shining in the hot sun.

However, most of her attention was directed on the pink face with big blue eyes that was extremely close to her.

"AAAAARGH!" Nastasia screamed. She leapt about a foot into the air before tumbling comically down again. She hastily got up, brushed herself off, adjusted her glasses and looked around at the animals surrounding her.

They looked strangely like the ponies in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. She had been dragged off to the living room by Mr. L, O'Chunks and Mimi, all of which were bronies (Mimi was obviously a pegasister. However, according to a Youtube comment, all MLP:FiM fans were bronies, so she was obviously confused) to watch episodes of MLP: FiM. Nastasia couldn't be called a 'brony' or 'pegasister', but she liked the show.

Just not extremely.

There were two pegasus poneis, two unicorns and two earth ponies. There was a white unicorn with a purple mane, set in elaborate curls. She had light-blue eye-shadow on her eyes. The other unicorn was light-purple, and had a dark-purple mane with pink stripes. Rarity and Twilight Sparkle.

Nastasia turned to the earth ponies. There was Applejack, the orange one with a brown cowboy-hat and a yellow tied-up mane, not to mention the white freckles and green eyes. Pinkie Pie was obvious, from her puffy pink mane and tail to her three-balloons cutie mark.

And finally, there was the pegasus ponies. Fluttershy, of course, was nervously attempting to hide behind Rainbow Dash, even though her yellow body and flowing pink mane and tail was obvious. Rainbow Dash was the most conspicuous, with her rainbow mane and tail, her rainbow lightning-bolt cutie mark and her sky-blue body.

She's Mr. L's favourite pony, Nastasia realised. She herself preferred the gentle and graceful (not to mention cute) Fluttershy, while O'Chunks liked the hard-working, tough Applejack. Mimi, of course, favoured Rarity, seeing as she wore and created dresses. Dimentio didn't bother with ponies. He said that it rotted brains, and he preferred to dedicate his mind to concentrating on other, more important tasks.

Like planning to destroy all worlds, for instance.

Time seemed to pass extremely slowly. It was a long time before Nastasia finally managed to summon the courage to clear her throat and speak. However, she spoke at exactly the same time Twilight did.

"I'm Nastasia, uh, Count Blumiere's right-hand minion," said Nastasia.

"I'm Twilight Sparkle, loyal student to Princess Celestia," said Twilight.

The two stopped talking right after the other one did, both blushing.

Suddenly, Pinkie bounded right up to Nastasia and said, not at all quietly, "Well, HI! I'm Pinkie Pie! I throw super-duper-looper amazingly fun, fun, fun parties! Right, Applejack?"

"That's true," nodded Applejack. "And I'm Applejack, Ponyville's best apple-bucker!"

Ponyville. That's where she was.

"I'm Rarity!" said Rarity proudly. "I design beautiful dresses for all ponies in Carousel Boutique, where everything is chic, unique and magnifique!"

"Introduce yourself, Fluttershy!" insisted Twilight, pushing the pegasus forward with magic.

Fluttershy gulped. "I'm F.. F..." she said.

"You're Fluttershy," said Nastasia kindly. "I, uh, I've heard of you."

Suddenly, there was a rainbow blur, and Rainbow Dash was flying casually in front of Nastasia. "Heard of Fluttershy, have ya?" she said, cockily winking. "Well, then, you've obviously heard of me!"

Nastasia was reminded involuntarily of Mr. L.

Applejack pulled back Rainbow by the tail and planted a hoof firmly on it, so Rainbow couldn't get away. "Now, now, RD," she scolded. "Ya can't just go 'round makin' assumptions to anybody 'n everybody that they all know ya!"

"Actually, I do know about her, 'K?" said Nastasia.

Applejack's jaw fell open. Rainbow pulled out of Applejack's grip and impatiently dusted her tail off, but the apple-bucker didn't realise.

"Ya... yah've heard of her?" Applejack repeated weakly.

"I've, uh, I've heard of all of you!" assured Nastasia. "Twilight Sparkle is the purple unicorn, and she has a baby dragon as her assistant called Spike and a pet owl called Owlicious! Rarity has a sister called Sweetie Belle and, uh, a pet cat called Opal. Pinkie Pie represents the Element of Laughter and loves chocolate milk. Rainbow Dash is the only pony in Equestria to have performed a, er, Sonic Rainboom... and she's done it twice! Fluttershy has a fear of grown-up dragons, and you, Applejack, you once had an Iron Pony competition against, um, Rainbow, and you lost because Rainbow kept cheating!"

Applejack wasn't the only one looking flabbergasted now.
