Curly Swirl yawned as she slowly made her way out of her tent on this cool Thursday morning. It was cloudly, but she knew that the other Pegasus's were preparing to make this a sunny day later this afternoon. As she got up she stretched a bit and went over to go make her breakfast. As she opened her backpack, looking inside, she noticed something in there. She took it out, and blinked. It was a small silver letter that looked very formal. She opened it and carefully took out the letter inside of it. It read:

 

"Dear whomever has received this letter, you have been chosen to come to Skycross Café at 12:00 PM this Thursday for a small group gathering where you can meet some new pony friends. Hope to see you there! Signed, Anonymous."

 

Curly read the letter once more before putting it down. What did this mean? Who was this "anonymous"? Had she or he (or gosh forbid it) come and snuck this in her backpack while she was sleeping? She looked around and there didn't see to be any sign of this having happened... it was all so strange. She wondered who else had received the letter. Luckily she knew where Skycross Café was, as she had just recently left Ponyville as she continued her destiny searching journey.

 

Should I go? she wondered. On one hoof, it would be kind of dangerous and ridiculous to trust this letter that had seemingly come from nowhere. But on the other, maybe she would actually make some friends... some who wouldn't tease her or think she was weird. It had been quite a while since she had actually socialized with some other ponies... so it was settled. Tomorrow morning at 12:00 PM she was going to that gathering, and there was no stopping her now!

While walking aimlessly like he normally did, Rag Stitch was stopped but some mare he's never met before. After he climbed out of the bushed he jumped into when the mare came out of nowhere. He gingerly took the letter she had for him and read it when she left. When he was done reading a smile grew on his face. He takes out his rag doll form her carrier and hold her us to look at her. "Guess what Dishcloth, I just got a letter telling me where I can make new friends.... No! Of cores I'm not going  to try and replace you. You're my best friend and you know that. This just might be my only chance for me to make friends." He puts Dishcloth back in her carrier and made his way to where he's supposed to meet the ponies who might be is new friends.

Bass cannon looked out her window for a moment, noticing the mailmare had finally come. She paused her song, slipped off her headphones and went outside to check the mailbox. She opened the box, grabbed the mail in her hooves, and viewed them one by one. "Trash... Trash... Trash... Trash... Oh this is different." She said as she looked at a letter. She read over it, and thought in her head where that cafe was, and then remembered. She made a mental note for 11:50 to start heading over there, and she went back inside and edited her music.

Hope grunted and covered his face as the light coming through the window blinded him, sadly though there was no point trying to hide from the sun as it covered most of the sofa he was laying upon... Wait, sofa?

 

Hope sat up and was greeted with a very well kept house, the walls coloured with various pinks and purples, a few mannequins lined the room, he though he remembered the place from somewhere but he couldn't be sure.

 

He stood up and as he did, a large clank sounded through the room, he looked down to see his helmet lying on the floor... Why was his helmet there, shouldn't it of been back at his house.

 

Just then a sweet yet regal voice spoke from behind hope.

 

"Ah hope your awake, did you enjoy your stay?"

 

Hope jumped around and was met with the face belonging to the element of generosity, Rarity.

 

Hope quickly grabbed his helmet and stuck it on, and then quickly adjusted the armor he had on, before speaking to rarity.

 

"Yes M'lady, may I ask why I'm here"

 

Rarity smiled.

 

"Well I need a big and strong stallion to escort me back from my visit to canterlot, and you offered to escort me, and I must say, you did a fine job"

 

Hope stood straight, almost like a statue.

 

"Just doing mu duty m'lady, I am sworn to protect the princesses and the elements, but might I ask why I stayed the night"

 

Rarity stepped closer towards hope a big grin on her face.

 

"Well I felt lonely and asked you to stay the night, we shared a few bottles of wine, and you were ever the gentle colt, you even helped me with my dress designing"

 

Hope held his position.

 

"Well couldn't leave a element alone if she had asked me to stay and help her, its my job to help, but I really must be going now, the princesses must be wondering where one their knight has disappeared to"

 

As soon as the word Knight left hopes mouth' Rarity's pupils were replaced with love hearts.

 

"Your a knight?"

 

Hope gulped and started to back up towards the door.

 

"Y-yes m'lady, I've completed the trials of Knighthood, as soon as I find my special somepony and marry her, I'll become a lord"

 

Rarity's eyes widened then they rolled back and she fainted, hope let out a silent laugh and then carried rarity over to the sofa, he then left.

 

As he was walking through town he noticed something was moving inside his chest plate, so he took it off and found a letter, he put his chest plate back on then opened the letter.

 

It was a invitation to a cafe, and the cafe was nearby, he decided that having a day of would be okay, the princesses haven't got a use for him yet, so he started to trot towards the cafe.

 

The wine from last night was starting to attack his head, coffee would do him some good.

[Feather Grass 312]

Clambering clumsily out of bed tripping over her sheets. Feather brushed her mane and tried her bow as to prevent her mane from becoming a mess.

 

Feather flew down her the stairs to serve Breakfast to the small animals she looks after in the meadow behind her small house.

"TWEET! TWEET!" (GIVE ME MAH BREAKFAST BIATCH!)

"Okay Simon here is your birdflakes"

"TWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!" (NO BIRDFLAKES IS FOR PLEEEEEEEEEBS!)

"Simon eat the flakes or you will starve to death!"

"Tweet..." (Okay...)

 

After sorting out the animals especially Simon the Budgerigar Feather flew back inside to make herself breakfast.

"Hmm... What to have for breakfast..."

"I know! Sensible Cereal Flakes!"

So Feather eats a bowl of bland tasting sensible cereal flakes.

 

Feather has a look at her calender.

"Mail Day it seems"

 

Feather trots to her mail box and there was one singular letter.

" A Letter for me?"

 

Feather excitedly read the letter

 

"Dear who... who... whom? yeah its whom! Ever has received this letter, you have been chosen to come to Skycross Café at 12:00 PM this Thursday for a small group gathering where you can meet some new pony friends. Hope to see you there! Signed, Anonymous."

 

"Who is anonymous?"

 

Feather looks in her near-empty cupboards

 

"Well I do need to go to ponyville for some food..."

((OOC: I changed it to Friday morning instead of Wednesday morning, so make sure your OC's start coming to the café now!))

 

Curly Swirl made her way to the café, and as she arrived in front of it she took a deep breath. "Curly, it's gonna be OK... you can do this. I'm sure they will be nice ponies... they will like you... I hope." she gulped as she finally reached for the café door and walked inside. She looked around cautiously, trying to see if the other pony(ies?) would be there. She looked around, but the café was almost dead.. most likely due to it being a Thursday. But she had a feeling it would get busy soon. It was very small but homely, and had fancy furniture everywhere. She nodded her head with a smile to the pony behind the counter, who told her to get her food whenever she was ready.

 

Should I go get my lunch, or just wait...? she thought to herself, not sure what to do. She wasn't good with these types of situations... so she chose the best (to her) option - to go and sit by herself at a table with her letter on display. That way, if anyone else did show up then they would know she was with them... right? She was starving, as she had been so nervous and eager to get here that she had forgotten to eat breakfast! But she didn't want to be rude, and she didn't know how today was going to go... so she decided to wait instead.

Hope rounded a corner and spotted the cafe, he sighed in relief and entered, his head was pounding slightly, most likely cause of the wine.

 

He walked up to the counter and ordered a coffee, the pony behind the counter made a coffee and handed it to him, he placed some bits on the counter and left to find a seat.

 

As he walked past a table he noticed a letter on the table that was the same as his, he sat at the table with the mare, he took a sip of his coffee, he was thinking of removing his armor but decided against it, as he had nowhere to store it.

 

He looked at the mare and gave a small smile.

 

"I see you got a letter as well"

[Sir Xarthas VI 470]

Bass Cannon looked at the time. It was 11:40. "Well, might as well start heading over there. I'm done with this song... for now." She said as she grabbed her MP3, put on another set of headphones, plugged them into the MP3, and walked outside. She looked around, trying to get her sense of direction working. Finally it did, and she walked in the direction of the cafe. She noticed two ponies inside already, and she walked in. She looked at the pony behind the counter, trying to think of how this pony was related, and finally came to the conclusion that they weren't involved. She found an empty table, and sat at it. She peered over to the other table with the two other ponies sitting at it. One of them had a letter out, the other one mentioned that he got one, too. Bass decided that they were three of the however many guests were coming to the get-together. She looked at her own table, thinking of a few things to get before going home, and then she started listening to her music.

[Cassafrass 249]

Curly looked up a bit surprised, and quickly flashed a small smile back at this very interesting looking pony. She wanted to ask what his armor was for, but she voted against it as it would probably come off as rude. "H-hello! You got a letter too?" She stuttered. "I'm guessing you weren't the one who sent it then." she giggled awkwardly. Man, she was really out of this socializing thing... but this was good practice, right? "Do you know any of the other ponies who are coming, if there are any? I received my letter out of the blue... it was really strange, but I guess it was a good thing. Oh! Sorry, I went off and began rambling there didn't I? My name's Curly Swirl. What's yours?" she said, smiling at the pony.

 

As she said all of this, she glanced at one of the other tables and saw a Pegasus who was all alone. She wondered if she was part of this as well, but shrugged it off, as she clearly seemed to busy with her music to notice her. Maybe she would go and say hello a little later... maybe.

Hope smiled and leaned back into his chair, he took a sip of his coffee and set on the table,

 

"I'm sure others will be coming, really strange thing is that I found my letter in my armor, even though I had slept in it, who ever delivered the letters is quite stealthy, anyway let's forget about that, I'm Sir Hope, could I treat you to something to eat or drink miss swirl"

[Cassafrass 249]

Wow, what a stallion! He was so nice... especially to a fourteen year old like her. She smiled back and sat up a little straighter in her chair. Right as she did so her stomach growled, and she looked back at Hope a little embarrassed. "Something to eat sounds lovely, Sir Hope. I didn't have breakfast today... are you sure you want to pay? Because I have..." she looked in her backpack that she had brought with her. "Ten bits... oh dear that's not much..." she stopped herself when she realized she was rambling again. But this wasn't good... where had the rest of her money gone? She could have sworn she had twenty bits just the other day.. she didn't buy anything... oh no - what if someone stole her money?!

 

She stopped when she realized she was neglecting Hope. "Sorry about that... I just thought I had more money on me... anyways, yes, something to eat would be lovely. Thank you!" She said as she fumbled with the zipper on her backpack awkwardly as she tried to zip it. Darn hooves! She was starting to think that Lyra Heartstrings - that one pony she had met on her travels - was right about how better humans were then ponies... hm. But she was letting her mind wander too much again! She had a big problem with that.

 

"Since you are buying me something, do you want me to pay for something for you to eat...?" she said, hoping she wasn't sounding like she was nagging him. She just hated it when people spent their hard earned bits on things for little ol' her and she couldn't pay them back... she always felt like she owed them a favor after. "I do hope that what you said is right... about the others coming soon."

Feather waited at the train station.

It is 9AM

The train is due 9:30AM

So Feather starts reading daring doo and the mysterious goo and then vomits all over the book and throws it on the track.

 

The train arrived at 10AM (late)

Feather climbs on and journeys to Ponyville.

 

Feather arrives in Ponyville at 11:30

 

"Half an Hour to get to that cafe!"

 

Feather flew faster than she had ever flew in her life and arriving at Skycross cafe at 11:59

 

"Barely Made it"

 

Feather opened the doors of this quiet little cafe and noticed 3 Ponies with a Similar Letter to her

 

Feather Approached these ponies.

 

"Hello... It seems you have this letter too..."

Hope smiled and got up from his seat.

 

"Its okay I'll pay for the food and drinks, between you and me, the princess pay me way too much"

 

Just as hope turned to walk to the counter a Pegasus stopped in front of their table and said she had a letter just like them.

 

"Okay well take a seat here if you want I'm just about to go get some sandwiches anyway, do you want one"

[Cassafrass 249]

"T-The princess?! You mean Princess Celestia? You work for her? Whoa!" Curly said taken aback. This pony knew Princess Celestia personally? That was mind blowing for Curly, as she really looked up to the princess... and hoped to meet her someday. She then turned to this new Pegasus that had arrived at the table. "Hello... what's your name? I'm Curly Swirl. You have a letter as well? That's really cool. I wonder who sent them though..." her mind pondered a bit once again, but she was just so happy that these ponies were being so nice to her! Almost all past experiences of her socializing had turned out awful... but maybe that was going to change.

"I would like a sandwich please if that won't be a problem."

"Here is the money for it"

*hands Hope 8 Bits*

"I hope that is enough."

 

*sits down on an empty seat*

"Nice to meet you Curly"

 

"how far away do you guys live from here?"

"Because the trains are delayed after they found a Daring Doo book on the track"

[Anon In Equestria 57]

Hope smiled and turned to walk to the counter.

 

"I tell you about her once I've got the sandwiches"

 

Hope walks up to the counter and orders three lettuce sandwiches and two cups of hot coco, he pays for them and takes them back to the table using his magic to carry them.

 

He sets them down on the table and takes a seat.

 

"Okay here you girls go, sandwiches and hot coco, here is your bits back miss, I payed for it all"

 

Hope places the 8 bits in front of the Pegasus.

"Thanks so much Hope!" Curly said, gingerly taking the sandwich and piping hot cocoa. "It looks delicious." she smiled. "It's nice to meet you, er... what's your name again? Sorry, I'm terrible with remembering them..." Curly said feeling her cheeks get a little hot. "Um, yes I got a letter! It's nice to meet you, Sidewinder." She looked at him and saw the goggles on top of his head. Was he some type of... pilot or something? "Oh, you aren't barging in! We are all supposed to be here..." she glanced at the zebra striped pony that was over by herself, and saw a letter peeping out beside her mp3. "She has a letter too! I suppose I should go see her and ask her if she would like to sit with us... I will be right back, ok?" Curly said as she quickly walked over to the Pegasus, leaving her other half of her sandwich behind. She would eat it in a moment. "Hi! Are you here for the meetup?"

Bass Cannon peered to her left, where a pegasus seemed to be asking her a question. She paused her song and took off her headphones. "Yes, I'm also here for the meetup. I decided I should get out more, and since I got this letter, I figured I should come here."  She said as she took out her letter and put it on the table.

[Gloomfury 243]

After a good walk, Rag Stitch made it to the Cafe. But a little lat it seems. He could see other ponies already talking with one another. He pulled Dishcloth closer to him and took a deep breath. He then made his way over to the group, kinda hoping they wouldn't notice him."... I know Dishcloth. But I can't think of anything to say to them." He talked quietly to his rag doll. "... No, I don't think they'll find sewing interesting. .... Maybe I should leave. Like I could ever make a friend anyway." His head goes downcast.

[Cassafrass 249]

"Oh... well that's cool. I kinda was thinking the same thing, so that's why I decided to come! I still wonder why we got these letters though... it still doesn't seem like the pony who sent it has come yet." She pondered this for a moment when she looked outside and saw a pony who was holding a dishcloth of all things! She had a feeling he was here for the meetup too... especially when she saw that he had a letter as well! "Hold on a moment, will you?" Curly said, running outside to meet this pony. She opened the door, hoping she hadn't startled him, right as he turned to leave. "Whoa, hold on there! I got a letter too... are you here for the meet up?" she smiled at him.

[Gloomfury 243]

@,((Dishcloth is his rag dolls name.))

 

 Rag Stitch got spooked when someone addressed him. He gets in a ball and hold is rag doll in front of him for protection.When he saw it was a young mare he calmed down a bit. he got out of his ball but still hold his rag doll close. "I-I am. But I don't think anyone would want to be friends with me."

@Gloomfury, ((dang it... sorry for messing that up >.<)

 

Curly Swirl flew down from where she had been flying and landed in front of the pony. "I-I didn't mean to scare you... of course I want to be your friend. From the looks of it you've had a rough upbringing, haven't you? I have too..." her voice trailed off as she looked into the distance, and then back at him. "I like your doll... did you make it yourself? Oh, and what's your name? Mine is Curly Swirl." She said gently, looking at the pony. She saw his cutie mark and instantly connected that he had made the doll and stitching was his passion... which was very cool! She always wished she could stitch, but because her hoofs were so awkward she could never hold the needle just right to do so.

@, ((It's alright. it happens.))  

Rag Stitch smiled when she said she liked Dishcloth. "I'm Rag Stitch. And I'm happy you like her, I did make her myself.  Her name's Dishcloth, she's my best friend." He takes Dish cloth out of her pouch and holds it up to Curly Swirl. "Say hello Dishcloth." He waves one of her arms. "I use to get really lonely in the cellar. So I made her. Then I got this thing." He points to his cutie mark."But I don't know what it's for." He really didn't know.
