Well I have decided to do the rest of the story in 1st person now since I think I write better than I do in 3rd person
Enjoy the chapter!
I was the first to finish my cupcake and cider as we ate. I burped loudly then blushed as everypony began laughing. Soon I was laughing too.
"Uggh sorry, cider makes be burp badly." I said with a laugh.
"Awh don't worry Inky! I've burped way worse!" Pinkie said, proving this statement by burping very loudly. Again everyone laughed. I then looked at Pinkie.
"Inky?" I asked. Pinkie smiled.
"Well it's your nickname duh!" She said. I facehoofed slightly at this but chuckled. I then looked over at the rest of our little group.
"So what do you guys do?"
"Well I work at the Library, Applejack works at Sweet Apple Acres, our local apple farm and Fluttershy here helps the animals in the forest and around town." Twilight said. I nodded.
"That's awesome!" I said. All three of them smiled.
"So what do you do Sugarcube? If you don't mind me askin." Applejack said. I smiled.
"Well as Twilight said earlier, I'm an author." Twilight got a curious look on her face as the topic changed to writing.
"Oh what books did ya write?" Applejack asked.
"Well I write these series of books called Rockslide." I said.
"What are they about?" I smirked at this.
"Well you'll have to read them to find out wont you?" I said with a wide smirk. Applejack blinked before snickering.
"Ah ya got me there." She said. I smiled and then looked outside.
"Well can you ponies show me around Ponyville?" I asked as they all finished their cupcakes and cider. "I haven't really looked around much."
Twilight, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy nodded but Applejack sighed.
"Sorry but I got ta get back to the farm." She said. "I've been gone quite a while." We all said bye as Applejack left. Suddenly Pinkie Pie filled my vision again.
"So Inky! Whatcha want to see first? The boutique? The farm? OH HOW ABOUT THE WRITER'S HOUSE?" She said grabbing me and beginning to shake me from side to side. As she stopped my eyes where slightly crossed so I shook my head getting them back in place.
"The writer's house? What writer are you talking about?" Twilight said. Pinkie smiled and began hopping up and down.
"Oh you know the guy who's writing this story! MadMan!" She said smiling. We all blinked.
"Um….Pinkie maybe you should lay down for a bit….if you don't mind." Fluttershy said. We all nodded. This was strange even for Pinkie. She smiled.
"Okie Dokie Lokie!" She said skipping off and then up some stairs. I stared as Pinkie left then l looked over at Fluttershy and Twilight.
"Is she always like this?" I asked, surprised how much energy she had and how random she was. They both nodded.
"Word to the wise though, NEVER try and question Pinkie Pie logic, EVER." Twilight said. "More than one pony has gone crazy trying to figure it out." I gulped as they both laughed at my expression.
"Well we should get going before it gets late." Twilight said stretching. I nodded and we left Sugarcube Corner.
After we left they began showing me Ponyville, I got to see the Boutique which Rarity forced me to sit down and combed my mane, which was now made into a Ponytail which actually didn't look that bad. Afterward I was shown Applejack's farm and met Big Macintosh, he wasn't the most talkative though. They then showed me around town before Fluttershy had to leave to take care of some animal called Angel Bunny. Now it was just me and Twilight.
"Last but not least this is the Library, It's where I stay." She said with a smile. I nodded and looked at the tree.
"It's very unique, I don't think I've ever seen another house inside a living tree before, well there was that one bar…" I said rambling on for a sec before Twilight coughed and I snapped back to my senses. "Oh sorry bout that." Twilight snickered and then opened the door of the Library.
"Come on in! I can show ya all the books we got." She said. I nodded and followed. Suddenly the door shut behind us, and we were surrounded by darkness. I heard a giggled before suddenly light's came on and suddenly a familiar pink blur popped up a few feet from me.
"SURPRISE!" About everypony in town screamed. I yelped and backed up but was stopped as Pinkie Pie grabbed me.
"Sorry about not tellin ya about the surprise party Inky! It's just it wouldn't be a surprise if I had told you and then I woulda been kinda sad and made this face." She then proceeded to make a sad face with big puppy dog eyes and then continued to talk. "So then I decided to keep it as a surprise and I had to invite EVERYPONY so you can make some more friends! I even made all kinds of snacks for everypony so that you can all stuff your faces while you talk!" Pinkie said in one breath. I barely followed any of what she said but went over it in my head.
"Uh thanks Pinkie, I bet this took a lot of effort so I'm glad you took the time out to do it." I said with a smile. Pinkie cheered as I finished.
"It was no problem really! Setting up parties is my favorite thing!" She said. Suddenly the pinky pony disappeared as someone had set off what seemed to be a small prank near the food table. I walked around saying hi and shaking hooves with almost everyone in Ponyville. Suddenly I ended up by the stage as I saw a grey pony setting up a guitar, I trotted over and smiled.
"Hi I'm Ink." I said. The pony smiled.
"Oh hey brony nice to meet ya." He said standing up. "My name's Grey Note." Grey Note was a big earth pony the same height as Big Macintosh but not with as much muscle, He had a grey coat with a long black mane with silver looking eyes, his cutie mark was of a guitar crossed with a drum stick and a keyboard behind it. I smiled and stuck out a hoof which he happily shook.
"Nice to meet you Grey Note." I said. "So I take it that you are gonna be playing the music for this party?" He nodded.
"Yup I'll be playing just on my guitar though, oh and just call me Grey everypony calls me that." He said finally picking up his guitar. It was black with a bunch of band's names on it which I didn't recognize. "Sorry I got to start playing though." Grey said with a smile. I nodded.
"No problem it was nice talking to you." He nodded and then walked up on stage and proceeded to play. I listened for a bit, before walking off towards the food table. There were mostly brightly colored cupcakes, muffins, brownies, and other assorted desserts. I grabbed a cupcake and a small thing of punch near a punch bowl at the end of the table. I eat the cupcake and went to drink my punch when Applejack walked up.
"Oh hi Applejack." I said with a smiled. She smiled back.
"Hey there Ink, sorry bout lying about havin to go back ta the farm but I needed a reason to get some of the dessert's." She said with smile. I laughed.
"Don't worry Applejack I understand." I said sipping my punch. Applejack nodded happy I wasn't angry then looked over towards the front of the library where Twilight was standing next to a unicorn stallion I hadn't met. He had a blue coat with a orange mane and eyes, He wore a green vest and a green watch also. His cutie mark was of a strange symbol which I didn't recognize.
"You see that fella? He says he's an author so I thought you'd like to meet him." She said. I looked at him curiously.
"Really? Oh I wonder if I've read any of his work…" I said trailing off into thought. Applejack giggled and I snapped out of it.
"Don't zone out on me there Ink." She said. I smiled sheepishly before looking back.
"I'm going to go talk to him." I said. She nodded and we both walked over. The author didn't notice us but Twilight did as she smiled as we walked over.
"Oh hi Applejack, hi Ink!" She said. We both smiled and said hello. Twilight then looked over at the new pony. "This is who I was telling you about Star Gazer." She said pointing her hoof at me. He looked over with a clam look.
"So you're Ink Writer? I've read your Rockslide series and have to say they are very good." He said with a smile. I nodded.
"It's nice to meet you Star Gazer, I haven't read your work but I've heard about it, you wrote the StarPony series correct?" I asked. He nodded.
"Yes I did, hopefully me and you can have a talk later on about our work." I nodded.
"That sounds great." He said. We continued to talk but we were interrupted by Pinkie who dragged all of us away and made us dance. Quickly the party passed filled with music, food, games, and for some reason a two ton cupcake. After a while everypony got tired and many just fell asleep on the floor, including me.
I blinked as sunlight hit my eyes through a window. I yawned and got up then gasped at the mess of the party. There were ponies, books, and snacks everywhere. I stood up and then stepped carefully over each of the fallen ponies. I then made it to the kitchen which somehow stayed perfectly clean. I quickly got a glass of water before hearing someone walk into the kitchen with a yawn. I looked over and saw Twilight with her mane slightly messed up and grumbling.
"Gonna take forever to clean all this up." She said not noticing me. I quietly snickered at this.
"Hey Twilight you sleep well?" I asked. She jumped and looked over then calmed down as she noticed it was me. She smiled tiredly.
"Not really the party kept me up most of the night." She said. I smiled and then yawned.
"Well how about I help ya to start cleaning up? It's the least I could do since this party was meant for me." I said. She nodded with a grateful smiled. Quickly we both fixed ourselves up and then proceeded to wake up everypony on the floor. After a while the Library was clear of ponies except for me, Twilight, and Star Gazer who had come to help out also.
"Dang that was a crazy party." I said picking up a few cups lying on the ground. Both Twilight and Star nodded.
"It was indeed." Star said carrying a trash bag for us to throw things into. With Star's help we ended up getting the place clean in much sooner then we thought. We all flopped onto 3 chairs near one of the walls and sighed.
"Remind me never to have a Pinkie Party at my house." I said tired. Twilight giggled as Star smiled. I smiled at them and then looked out the window near us.
'I think I'll like Ponyville.' I thought smiling as I thought of all the new friends I had made in less than one day.
