Chapter 4: The Residence
The ponies had no problem with wanting them in, it was just a matter of who, Pinkie lived with the Cakes, and wasn't sure if they would mind, Fluttershy said it'd be okay, but after a short tour, Shishka wasn't to sure if haveing a submachine gun near animals who could actually do things was such a good idea, Rarity showed them around her place, which was really nice in Klaus's opinion, but then in a strange twist, Klaus was some how dressed in a tuxeodo, with a top hat, and Shishka was dressed in an old time king outfit, (you know, the one with the wierd thing around their necks,) Klaus didn't mind the random clothing change, he was happy to get out of that Nazi uniform, but Shishka didn't care for his, and Rarity seemed persistant to find a perfect outfit for him, while she was in the dressing room, Shishka ran out, Klaus decided to follow, even though she seemed like an alright choice. Infront of a fountain, Klaus and Shishka decided to discuss options, "Ugh, in all my life, I never had to live with someone," Shishka said, "Not even parents," Klaus was thinking, "Nor have I, but until we find someway to make money, we need to for now," Shishka was a bit annoyed, and decided to get out of his outfit, "Shishka?! WHAT IN THIS WOLRD ARE YOU DOING?!" Shishka got undressed, and put on his old uniform, "I refuse to look like a girl," He said, zipping up his pants, "Shishka, you could have ATLEAST went into an ally, or behind a tree," Shishka gawfed, "Please, the ponies here don't even swear, I DOUBT they even have that kind of thing!" Klaus glared at him, "They are the people of this world, it is not our place to judge them as to what they do, besides, love clearly exists here, and even hugs, and if they have weddings, I GARUNTEE they have that kind of thing," Shishka grumbled, he could care less. They arrived at Applejack's farm, they were greeted by a huge, red pony, "Can help ya'll?" He asked, "Yes sir, we're looking for Applejack," Klaus said, bowing, "Name's Klaus," The red pony went back inside, after a minute, he came back, "Ya'll gonna' come in or what?" He asked, chuckling, "Oh, our pardons sir, we didn't know you already invited us in." Once they were inside, they admired the house, it was big, and spaceious, after a moment of sitting on the couch, which Klaus and Shishka thought it was the most comfortable thing they ever sat on, Applejack came in sweating, "Ah'm sweatin' likea' mouse infront of a cat," She chuckled, and then smiled at the two, "Oh, it's yew two, welcome," She said, "Much obliaged Applejack, now then, me and my friend came here to ask something from you," Klaus said, Applejack sat in the other chair, "And what's that?" She said with a smile, "We need a place to stay," He said, Applejack stared, them staying wasn't a problem, but extra help on the farm was always welcomed, and if they were leaving all the time looking for a job, they wouldn't be doing anything, "Well, uhh, sure yew gais could, but you'd have to help out 'round here," She said, "We could do that, but mind you, we also have to go find a paying job," Klaus said, "Oh, uhh, Ah dunno fella's," She said, apperently it was going to be harder then Klaus expected to find a pony willing, "It's understandable," Klaus said, and the two got up, "We thank you for your time," Klaus bowed, and walked out, Shishka stayed, "I would be happy to live here with you," He said, "Well thank 'ya, but I mean, we're always lookin' for help 'round the orchard," She said, "Yes, and I use to be a farmer myself," Shishka said, Applejack smiled, "Well, Ah suppose you could." Klaus over heard, and smiled...Shishka found a place, that's good, less chance of a pony getting shot, when he's to busy farming...And made his way to Pinkie Pie's house, he knocked, and was greeted by a tall yellow one, "Hello?" He asked, "Yes, I'm looking for a Miss Pinkie Pie," Mr cake thought, "I think she said she was going to go do something, who knows when she'll be back," Mr Cake laughed, "Ah, I see, thank you for your time," Klaus said, but just then, out of a potted plant, that Klaus never imagined a pony popping out of, Pinkie Pie jumped out, "You lookin' for me mister?" She said, "Indeed I was," Klaus answered, "Oh! Ohohohohohohohoh! Does that mean you want to play, or do something together because I mean that would be SO cool!" Klaus smiled, there was just something about her that was cheerful, "Well, no, I was going to ask you if I could live with you for a short time," Pinkie thought, "Are you any good at baking?" She asked, "If you like things extra burnt," Klaus replied, "Uhh...I don't know, I mean, we never had anybody live here with us, uhh, Mr. Cake? Would you mind if Klaus lived here with us?" Pinky asked, "Well, uhh, I'd like to know if you'd be able to help out somehow," Mr Cake asked, "My skill isn't in baking, or cooking, trust me, Shishka would have shot me if he tasted my cooking," Klaus chuckled, "Well...What are you good at?" Pinky asked, Klaus sighed, he whipped out his pistol, and shot a potted plant, that was far away, "I'm good at firearms," He said, Pinky and Mr Cake stared at him, "Well...I'd like to help you out, but I mean, if you can't bake, you wouldn't really be helping out here, and that would be like, you not caring about us," Pinky said, with a frown, "No, I do care it's- Wel okay, thank you for your time," Klaus walked away, truth be told, he really was a piss poor cooker, he once made dinner for his Kompany, but they all got food poisioning, and spent a week in triage. Klaus thought maybe goin' back to Rarity's place would be a good idea, but he wasn't very neat ethier, and she looked pretty organised, Klaus let out a sigh, "Looks like I'll be sleeping outside, better wear something warm," Twilight came out from the Library, surprising Klaus, "OH!" Klaus yelped, then held his chest, "UHH...Okay," He said, breathing, "Oh, I'm sorry Klaus, I didn't mean to scare you," Twilight said, "It's fine, I just...never seen a tree as a library," He chuckled, "Oh, yes, it is very neat, anyway, I overheard you, and I refuse to have a man of learning, sleep outside," She said, "Well thank you Twilight, but...I assume you want me to do things as well," He sighed, Klaus wasn't afraid of work, he just didn't like back breaking stuff, "Other than help me in my studies... Not really," She smiled. Klaus walked into the Library, it was very pretty, very organised, "Uhh...Twilight, you are organised, I'm a bit of mess, not to messy, just...Yeah," Twilight looked at him, "Just pick up after yourself, and you'll be fine," She said, and trotted to the table with a quill and ink, "What about a pen?" Klaus asked, "Well, I tried that once, but the quill and ink are the only things this scroll accepts," Klaus blinked.
After thirty minutes of writing, a purple dragon took it, and blew on it, "Thanks Spike," Twilight hugged him, Spike sighed, "Twilight, you don't have to hug me after everytime I send a letter," Twilight smiled, "Of course I do, I want to show you how much I care about you," Spike smiled, "Oh, where are my manors, Spike, this is Klaus," Klaus waves, Spike stares, "What's he suppose to be?" Twilight looks back, and sighs, "I don't know, but he's one of learning," She said with a smile, Spike facepalms, "So now there are TWO braniacs living here?" Spike shook his head, "Before soon, my head really will look like an egg," Klaus and Twilight chuckle. After an hour or so, Twilight and Klaus were discussing various works of art, Twilight and Klaus both found it wierd that they were discussing the same works of art, but they had different names, but nontheless, Klaus and Twilight both were pleased with the fact, they found eachother to discuss these with, "Wow, I am terribly sorry Klaus, for misjudging you from what your race is," She said, "It is fine Miss Twilight, It is understandable on how your thoughts were misconstruded (Misunderstood)," He said, smileing, "Well, I'm glad I WAS wrong," They continued to talk through out the night.
