Trying To Make A Sale

[Pristine Polish]

OOC Stuff Here

 

Pristine Polish hadn’t been in Ponyville long at all, so she hadn’t exactly established herself just yet nor does she know every pony. She’s hoping to change all that and get some clients. After all, a great way to boost business is through word of mouth. So, she hopes to make a great first impression on every pony. After grabbing some breakfast, she headed off to the middle of town with her wagon in tow to sell her cleaning solutions to the Ponyville residents. It was a nice sunny morning and as far as the light blue unicorn could tell most of the residents appeared to be in a good mood.

 

Using a megaphone, Pristine Polish cleared her throat and made the announcement, “attention Ponyville, I Pristine Polish am here today to present to you a very special offer. For the low, low price of five bits you can now remove nasty stains from just about anything including whites. Yes, it’s true no longer can stains hide from even the finest of silk for I, Pristine Polish have created just the right solution using the right amount of my unicorn magic to get the job done. In fact, I am so confident in my product that if it doesn’t work to your satisfaction I will fully reimburse you! Yes, you heard that right ladies and gentlecolts! My product will work and if it doesn’t you will get your money back. You don’t believe me? Here let me show you what my cleaning solution can do for you today!” After making her claim Pristine retrieved a white hand towel from her wagon and deliberately tossed it into a nearby mud puddle causing some in the audience to audibly gasp. Pristine chuckled though she could hardly blame them. The once beautiful towel was now absolutely filthy and unrecognizable. “Relax, it’s all part of the demonstration,” she assured them.

 

Humming softly she used her unicorn magic to telekinetically pick up the now muddied towel. She then telekinetically picked up one of her cleaning solutions, removed the lid and poured some of it onto the towel. “And now for the moment you have all been waiting for! The grand finale!” Upon lifting the towel out of the solution and wringing it dry, she slowly unfolded the towel revealing it to be once again clean without a stain in sight. “Ta da!” Pristine exclaimed taking a bow. Watching in awe, the audience just gasped and then they began to murmur excitedly amongst themselves. Some of them even began to applaud. “Thank you! Thank you every pony! I’m glad you enjoyed my little demonstration,” she said taking another bow.

 

Unsurprisingly not long after, ponies began to line up at her wagon to purchase some of her solutions. As they did so she began to explain that each one of her solutions was for different things in detail. To make things less confusing she did organize her solutions in various rows. One row was for silk, another for whites, another for colors, another for wood, another for plastic, another for metal, another for bricks, another for porcelain, another for marble, one for glass, and etc. Whenever a customer has a question, Pristine was quick to answer it as thoroughly as possible.

A cloaked pony observes the stand from afar. She slowly approaches it, watching the demonstrations with wide eyes. She adjusts her hood slightly and takes another step closer, not really saying anything, just silently observing.

From behind a nearby bush, a bushy-maned pink pony observed this new sales wagon with significant skepticism. "Hmm, a boastful new pony in town, huh? That's suspicious. And this pony has a wagon cart thingy with all of her stuff? Even more suspicious. I'm telling you, this pony reeks of suspicion. Last time some boastful pony with a wagon cart thingy showed up in town, they tried to run Applejack out of business with their cider with sticks in it. The time before that, some boastful pony with a wagon cart thingy caused an ursa minor to trample through town. That means that this pony is definitely up to something."

"Now, what kind of surprise welcome party do I throw for a suspicious pony who is definitely up to something?" Pinkie Pie asked herself as she pulled out a notebook and a glitter pencil out of her mane before furiously taking notes down.

Meanwhile the Mane 6 observed the newcomer along Pinkie Pie.

Twilight Sparkle facehoofed as she listened to Pinkie Pie.

"Pinkie Pie, maybe we should be polite and give this newcomer a proper pony welcome? As a princess of friendship it is my duty to he-"

Rainbow Dash cuts Twilight.

"Yeah yeah egghead. This new pony is definitely NOT cool..."

Twilight rolls her eyes.

"That's not the point Rainbow Dash! I am going to meet this new pony right now wether you like it or not!"

Fluttershy joins Twilight.

"I-I think Twilight's right... We must show kindness to everypony... No matter how suspicious they look from outside..."

Fluttershy says with gentle tone and cute little smile.

Twilight and Fluttershy, and eventually the rest of mane 6 girls approached Pristine's wagon. Rarity seemed to have picked interest in some of her goods.

"My... These would do perfectly with my designs..."

Rarity said to herself while observing the various types of silks she had never seen before.

While making a sell, Pristine spotted a mysterious cloaked figure coming ever so slightly closer to her wagon. Not wanting to scare her off she quietly looked her over. ‘Strange fashion choice and there’s not even a single rain cloud in the sky. I wonder what she has to hide or he? I can’t really tell with the hood covering much of their face, but I don’t want to appear nosy or rude, so I’ll try my best not to stare so much,’ the cleaning sales pony thought to herself while trying her best to smile politely at the cloaked pony. Once the mysterious cloaked figure became next in line, Pristine still smiling cleared her throat. “Hello there. Welcome to my humble wagon. See anything in particular that catches your eye? Perhaps something to get nasty, stubborn stains out of that fine cloak you are wearing? What’s it made out of by the way? Polyester? Not that I am judging of course! But I do have cleaning solutions for just about any type of fabric. Please, don’t be shy. Step right on up and take a look for yourself,” she informed her in a friendly, welcoming tone gesturing her totally clean hoof towards her solutions. In fact, it was hard to believe that she had walked so far on a dirt road considering just how clean and shiny her hooves were. She had spoken in a thick Sparkletown accent unlikely heard from any pony there before.

 

But the mysterious cloaked pony was not the only curious thing she saw. As she looked straight ahead she thought she caught sight of a bushy bright pink mane sticking out from a bush. ‘What’s this another shy pony too shy to come out and see me?’ She thought getting self-conscious and thinking she may have accidentally done or said something offensive or scary. She glanced at her wagon. No there was nothing frightening about her soft colored wagon. Just a typical looking wagon with a single large rain drop design on either side of it. Nothing scary or offensive about that. Shaking her head she then returned her attention back to her customers.

 

Pristine then noticed a rather large group of six ponies approaching her and her wagon. Thinking them all potential customers she saw dollar signs and smiled at them. Looking them all over she recognized one of them had the same bright pink colored mane she spotted sticking out from the bush and she couldn’t help, but recognized that the purple one was an alicorn. Sparkletown may have been far, but news still traveled there. She had heard stories of a fourth alicorn princess and how she and her friends constantly worked together to defeat many a powerful foe and save Equestrian half a dozen times over. Plus she had bought and read their Friendship Journal and loved it! She loved it so much she read it several times. ‘This must be them!’ She thought feeling so excited that her smile widened as they approached. “Oh wow wow! It’s you! I mean of course it’s you! I read that you lived here, but I never expected… You must be Princess Twilight Sparkle, the Princess of Friendship! Oh wow, it is an honor to meet you and your friends! And you’re approaching my wagon? My wagon! Wow, some pony pinch me I must be dreaming!” She squealed jumping up and down in pure excitement.

 

Noticing other ponies just staring at her she stopped and cleared her throat. “I mean welcome Princess to my humble wagon. I am hoping to be able to make enough to afford my own shop. Maybe even open up a dry cleaners. I don’t know. But for now, what can I help you ladies with? Has some super evil and extremely messy monster left behind an enormous mess somewhere that only I can clean? If so I can for sure clean it. No problem. I can clean anything,” she informed them as she continued to stare unable to process that she was in the presence of such famous ponies. She felt like she wasn’t worthy to be even around them. It’s not like she ever did anything in her life even remotely noteworthy.
