/1 Year and 10 Months before Season 1\
This chapter takes place 5 Minutes After Kurat met Pinkie Pie.
Time: 3:35 PM, 25 Minutes till his party.
(Also… we make a new friend in this story~)
…
We see Kurat still exploring Ponyville. It seems he is very lost as he couldn't find the Mayor's building.
"Ugh… where is this stupid building at!" Kurat complained.
[Just keep looking, ask some locals like I have suggested]
"Mmm" Kurat nodded.
(A/N: Random comment by me~ Kurat still used Magicules as his main power source. Mana is a rank below, Equestrian Energy is Mana… BBBBYYYERRE!!!!!!)
…
We see Kurat asking the locals for directions to the Mayor's Building. His attempts were successful as a Stallion pointed the way for Kurat. He thanked said background character and continued his exploration, remembering the directions told to him…
We see Kurat in front of the Mayor's Building. Kurat argued with Adam mentality for a bit->
'WE PASSED THIS PLACE LIKE 4 TIMES!! HOW DID WE NOT SEE IT?!'
[How the hell am I supposed to know that this was the Mayor's Office Building? I don't have the towns layout and map yet]
'UUUGGGHHHH!!!' Kurat mentally screamed to himself before composing himself.
*Inhale*
*Exhale*
"Alright, here we go." Kurat said as he walked towards the building…
He entered, slowly walking towards the front desk. "Umm, excuse me? Miss? I am looking for the Mayor of Ponyville. I wanted to ask if she could help me… get a house?" Kurat asked the receptionist.
"…"
"Head up the stairs and make a right…" the tired receptionist said.
"Thanks!" Kurat trotted upstairs, following the directions told to him.
Kurat entered the office, "hello?"
"Oh! Hello there." Mayor Mare said to Kurat, "you must be new to Ponyville, right?" She asked.
"Yup! The name's Kurat Melenia, miss?"
"Mayor Mare, Mr Melenia." She said, "Now, what can I do for you?" Mayor Mare asked.
"I am here to ask if you could… help me get a home?" Kurat somewhat begged.
"Alright! For both construction and furniture, that will be… 350 Bits" Mayor Mare said to Kurat.
"Ack!" Kurat was shocked at the price of a home.
"Umm… I don't have any Bits on me at the moment… is there a way for me to earn that amount?" Kurat asked.
[Good, good]
[You aren't screwing it up, keep going boy…]
"Well, there are a few ways. But what I would recommend is if you take Odd Jobs around Ponyville, or to work at Sweet Apple Acres. And judging by your size, they could use a few more hoofs." She replied.
"Alright." 'ADAM!!! I JUST REMEMBERED THAT ONE EPISODE WHERE APPLEJACK WAS TOO STUDDORN TO ACCEPT ANY HELP!!! Mostly because they aren't family or friends… I think?' Kurat begged Adam for advice.
[Hmm…]
[Stop overthinking it. Sure, some things are accurate, but maybe this Applejack is accepting of outside help. Plus, we need a stable job for income and for our home. And plus… you need the exercise]
'WHA-ARE YOU CALLING ME FAT?!' Kurat was mentally angry at Adam.
[No]
[I am calling you Obese]
*Groans*
"Umm, excuse me Mr Melenia? Are you ok?" Mayor Mare asked.
Kurat paused and realised that he stayed silent for a good while and also groaned, right in front of her. "Uhh, sorry Mayor Mare, I just have a LOT in my mind right now.. hehe…" Kurat rubbed the back of his neck.
"I see. Well, that is all I can help with. If you need a place to stay while you earn the required Bits… the Golden Oak Library is a good place to stay at. If that's ok with you?"
"ABSOLUTELY, YES!" Kurat got up and shook the Mayor's hoof.
"Well, pleasure meeting you Mr Melenia. Now if you'll excuse me," she looked at her piles of paperwork, "I have some work to do, and some appointments to schedule." She finished.
"Alright!" Kurat went and left the office.
Mayor Mare stared at the seemingly endless pile of paperwork, "*Sighs* I hate this part of my job…"
…
We see Kurat exiting the Mayor's Office Building. 'Hey Adam? What time is it?'
[It is… 3:50 PM. You have 10 minutes before the party. Now that we finalised where we work, that party isn't a bad idea anymore]
"Huh?" Kurat was confused at Adam's switch of voice, 'why is that?'
[Simple: Applejack would probably attend a Pinkie Pie Party. So, we meet with her there, ask for a job, probably "Apple Bucking" or Construction, get the job, and head to the Library]
'Uh-huh.' Kurat walked on his merry way to Sugar Cube Corner…
We see him asking the locals for directions, as he is lost… again.
"Just make a right around there and head straight. If you see a candy-like shop, that's where Sugar Cube Corner is located." Said the Background Mare Character.
"Thanks miss!" Kurat walked away and was about to head there when…
*Bam!*
Kurat head-slammed into an innocent pony.
"Ow…" the said pony was rubbing her head.
"Oops! Sorry miss-oh! Hey Derpy." Kurat greeted the second-most favourite-most likeable pony in Equus… DERPY HOOVES!!! GIVE LOTS OF CLAPS EVERYONE!!!!
"Oh, hi Mr Kurat!" Derpy greeted back.
"Please, just Kurat is fine~ No need for formalities." He insisted.
"Well, ok. How are you doing?" Derpy asked.
"Fine actually, got invited to my welcome party, met the Mayor, found my, soon to be, source of income, fought with my inner demons, how about you?" Kurat asked Derpy.
"Oh, well I just finished my shift and took my break. And–did you say inner demons?" Derpy asked worryingly.
"What? Pssh-no~" Kurat waved Derpy's question away, "I didn't say that… so! I have to ask, but are you going to Pinkie Pie's party?"
"Yeah! She throws the best parties! And, you're new here, right? Sorry my memory isn't that good…" Derpy said in a sad tone.
"No no! You're right, I am new here and Pinkie Pie tackled me and gave me an invitation to my welcome party at Sugar Cube Corner… wanna-be-friends?" Kurat said that last part really fast.
"What?" (Derpy)
"What?" (Kurat)
…They both stared at each other for a few seconds, both confused before Derpy answered, "oh, well thanks for telling me. And, sorry to ask but, would you like to… be my friend?" Derpy offered.
"…."
'Adam, what are the chances of this happening?'
[A Rough 69% Chance of her asking. In the show, Fanfictions, mostly Fanfictions, she doesn't have many friends and is ignored a lot, mostly due to her crossed-eyes. Taking her as a friend would not only make her very happy, but you would have somepony to talk to casually. In other words: TAKE THE DAMN OFFER YOU DENSED FU*K!]
'Ok, ok, sheesh. Don't need to shout' "Uh, yeah sure. Let's be friends, Derpy Hooves. 😁"
"Wait, really?!" Derpy smiled and hugged Kurat. Kurat was having a mental breakdown, if having Luna as a friend wasn't enough, this certainly is. I mean… he is living a BRONIES BEST LIFE… lucky…
(A/N: I AM NOT JEALOUS OF KURAT MELENIA… AND I DON'T HAVE AN A-K 47 AIMED AT HIS HEAD!!!)
"Awesome! First friend in Ponyville, and it's some Pony I like!" Kurat exclaimed.
"Oh! I have to ask," she pulled out a muffin out of her saddle bag, "muffin?"
Kurat saw the Blueberry Muffin on Derpy's hooves and shook his head violently. This spooked the mare for a second before seeing the muffin now in Kurat's mouth, "oh! This-this is delicious!"
*Swallowed*
"Really? Thanks! I have more if you want? Or we could hang out after work!" Derpy offered Kurat.
"Now that, is a plan~" Kurat said.
…
We see the duo walking to Sugar Cube Corner, Kurat making small talk with Derpy.
"So, wait? You plan to one day open a… comic book shop?" Derpy asked Kurat.
"Yup! I already have some to sell, but I need more paper to make copies…. So that plan is on hold for now." Kurat explained.
Meanwhile in Kurat's head->
'ADAM!!! PLEASE TELL ME YOU SOMEHOW MANAGED TO MAKE ALL THE CHARACTERS FROM ANY AND ALL MANGA/COMICS/SHOWS/ WHATEVER I KNOW INTO PONY CHARACTERS!!!!' Kurat screamed at Adam.
[SHUT! THE! FU*K! UP! KURAT MELENIA! I TOLD YOU BEFORE, I WILL DO IT SOON, NOT FU*KING NOW WHILE YOU ARE TALKING TO YOUR NEW FRIEND! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH TIME THAT TAKES TO DO?! I DON'T SEE YOU RE-CREATING ANY OF THESE COMIC BOOKS… AND SOMEHOW RE-DRAWING EVERY CHARACTOR INTO FU*KING PONIES?!?!]
'STOP SAYING FU*K AT ME AND STOP SHOUTING!!'
[YOU STOP SHOUTING!!!]
'AAAHHHHHHH!!!'
[AAAHHHHH]
Back in the real world->
We see Derpy being slightly worried at Kurat as he is suddenly sweating for no apparent reason. Today wasn't hot at all, they didn't exercise, but he does look worried.
"Umm, Kurat?" Kurat snapped out of his argument-I mean, thoughts with Adam and faced Derpy.
"Yes Derpy?" Kurat answered.
"Are you ok? You look worried, and you're sweating a lot." Derpy asked with concern.
"Yes! I'm fine, friend…" Kurat said back to Derpy almost immediately.
Derpy stared at Kurat and was about to ask another when…
"Oh look! We're here." Derpy said as she saw the Candy-Looking building in the distance.
Derpy looked at Kurat with a grin, "wanna race?"
"Hoo~ you dare challenge me? To a running challenge? Derpy Hooves?" Kurat asked Derpy.
"I do dare!" Derpy said as she started to run, gaining a head start.
"Hoo~ you dare challenge me… MORTAL!" Kurat dashed after Derpy…
They both laughed as they ran, trying to slow the other down while trying to reach there first.
Adam saw this unfold and said to himself:
[Huh, already acting like best friends…]
[Image Captured]
….
Kurat and Derpy reached the building, the other saying to the other, "I Won!" They both stared at each other, arguing on who actually won when…
"Hi!" Pinkie Pie appeared out of nowhere.
"Gah!"
Both Derpy and Kurat were spooked by Pinkie's sudden appearance.
"Hey Kurat! Hey Derpy! Welcome!!" Pinkie said as she bounced inside Sugar Cube Corner.
Derpy turned to Kurat and asked, "ready to see hundreds of ponies all asking you questions?"
"Wow, that was direct of you." Kurat said.
"Well, it happened to me before, and I think every newcomer receives the same treatment at Pinkie's Welcome Parties." Derpy said back to Kurat.
"I see… Welp," Kurat started walking inside, "let's get this show on the road!"
"What show?" Derpy asked, confused.
"Oh, it was a figure of speech, I meant that, "let's go inside!" Or something." Kurat answered.
"Oooohhhh, that makes more sense. Then yeah! Let's get this party underway!" Derpy declared.
….
As Derpy AMD Kurat entered the building, they were greeted with a large welcome:
"WELCOME TO PONYVILLE KURAT!!" Every pony there said, except Derpy, who was frightened by the loud noise and got spooked.
Pinkie blitzed towards Kurat, "I officially welcome you to Ponyville Kurat! Come join in! Meet my friends, Gummy, and have some cake!" Pinkie said to Kurat.
"Well," Kurat turned to Derpy, shall we?"
"Yes sir!" Derpy trotted over to the food table, while Kurat was busy looking for one specific Pony… Applejack…
…
In Canterlot->
We see Celestia in her royal garden, watching the view. She is seen eating a plate of strawberry-coated cake, while also having some nice rosemary-tea.
*Sip!*
"Ahh~ nothing beats this." Celestia said.
Celestia looked up, watching an odd statue, different body parts of different races, all combined to make one abstract piece of art, or is it?
"Hmm, I wonder if you could even change…for the better." Celestia said to herself as she took a large bite of her cake…
