"No...no, that's not it," Kale muttered to himself as he wandered down the main street of Ponyville. For a 'small' town, it was still surprisingly easy to get lost in; the pony had arrived here what seemed like hours ago, and yet he still couldn't find the place he was looking for. Reaching back into his satchel, he pulled out the note his parents had given him and laid it on the ground before him. He read it for the umpteenth time, reassuring himself that yes, he was looking for the Clop Cafe, so no, it probably wasn't one of the dozens of buildings he'd already passed.
"I hope he's not expecting me to be early," he murmured nervously, glancing about in the hopes that he might recognize somepony. One did seem familiar, but...why? Scrutinizing her, Kale realized that the fruit stand she was working also looked familiar. After spending a moment wondering why, he realized the answer and sighed.
He'd already gone this way.
Muttering irritably, Kale picked the note up and stuffed it into his bag. Why hadn't anypony thought to give him a map?

Rainbow Dash was speeding what must've been 100 miles per hour, but she then crashed into someone."Oomph" Dash cried out .She stared at the pony for a second or two before noticing she had spilled some of his things."Hi!"Dash chirped. Dash was quite surprised seeing a pony like this one in Ponyville (Dash isn’t thinking straight). She began to scrutinize every feature of his with the most intense eyes.
“Well, I’m sort of sorry for running into you ya know?”Dash asked dizzily. If only Dash hadn’t been speeding this wouldn’t have happened. Dash said to herself, curving her lip she jumped up in excitement and asked.”Are you fast?”Dash hoped he wasn’t because she wanted to show off her speed; maybe he could help her with her speed if he was faster. Dash yawned tiredly, why was she yawning already?!She can’t possibly be tired already! It’s all your fault for speeding thought Dash… |

Just as Kale was hit with the idea of asking somepony for directions, he was also hit by a rather colorful...something. He was too busy being knocked off his hooves and skidding several feet to see what had rammed into him, but whatever it was, it seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. "Uuunnnhhh..." he groaned, taking a good few moments to remember which way was up. As it turned out, 'up' was the way his legs were pointing.
Shaking off his confusion, the pony rolled back onto his hooves and stood up. A quick look made it obvious what had happened: some pegasus had barreled into him, and was getting up now herself.
"Hi!"
She wasn't nearly as concerned about this as he was; somehow, Kale got the feeling that this was a regular thing for her. Glancing between her (rather chipper) face and the strewn contents of his bag, which had somehow ended up hanging off of a fence post, all he managed was an "Uhh..."
“Well, I’m sort of sorry for running into you ya know?”
Feeling slightly put off by the way the pegasus was staring at him, Kale couldn't keep confusion or discomfort from pasting themselves on his face. "Oh, um, it's fi--" he started, but his uncertain mumbling was no match for the girl's fast talking.
”Are you fast?”
"I--what?" he asked, raising an eyebrow at the seemingly random question and starting to gather his possessions from where the impact had thrown them. No doubt he was going to have trouble keeping up with this pony for long.

Dash wanted to laugh at this pony, but instead immediately helped gather his things which were misplaced. Dash began to think about simple things like how will she get back to her house undisturbed, but then she thought better of it when she saw him.”Oh, never mind about those questions I asked earlier how about you tell me why you’re here.”Dash asked excitedly. Dash was hoping that this pony would tell her when she realized she didn’t introduce herself.”I’m Rainbow Dash, but my friends call me Dash!”Dash added in a loud voice.
It seemed Dash was a bit perplexed at this pony and was going to see if he was going to run away from her seeing how insanely hyper she can be. “Maybe he is different.”Dash thought confidently as she handed him a few things.”Maybe I can help you in some way to reach your destination?”Dash asked hastily. |

It was quite a relief when, instead of calling him out for his pathetic attempt at answering her question, the pegasus helped Kale collect his belongings. He hadn't brought much, but it had spread surprisingly far. It was a wonder that none of it was broken.
”Oh, never mind about those questions I asked earlier how about you tell me why you’re here.”
"Oh, I'm moving here," Kale replied, glad to actually have a ready response for once. He didn't have much to say for being fast; even for an earth pony, he wasn't particularly speedy, so there certainly wasn't a chance of him outpacing somepony who could fly. And from what little he knew of this new acquaintance, he could tell that she was more than just 'fast.'
At that thought, he realized one way he could learn a little more. "So, uh...what's your name?" he asked, tilting his head inquisitively.
”I’m Rainbow Dash, but my friends call me Dash!”
A faint smile formed on Kale's face. "Rainbow Dash," he repeated, testing the name. "Well, I'm Kale. It's nice to, er...meet you." It probably would have been nicer without the high-speed collision, but one couldn't pick and choose. And she seemed nice enough, which was a definite plus as far as the earth pony was concerned.
”Maybe I can help you in some way to reach your destination?”
Kale perked up at that. "Oh! Yeah, do you know where the 'Clop Cafe' is?" he asked, glancing about as if just asking would make it appear. "I'm supposed to meet somepony there, but...well, I can't find it," he admitted sheepishly, scuffing the ground with one hoof and eying Dash hopefully.

Ok, you go to your right at that corner over there and keep on going straight till you see the sign Clop Cafe! Rainbow Dash replied excitedly. Dash was impressed with this pony seeing as he has the down-to-earth look. Dash wasn't really great when it came to ponies and directions and most likely gave him the wrong direction, but she will apologize later on “if” she ever bumped into him again.
Dash gave Kale an appraising look then headed off to her destination which was somewhere not there. Dash hoped that she would find good clothing like a cape or something for a race she was going to do tonight.
She gave a large scowl to the passing by unicorns, ”Pfft, unicorns and their stupid abilities.”Dash is usually nice in her way to all ponies, unicorns, and others as well, but a unicorn got on her bad side this early morning while Dash was clearing the skies from the stormy grey clouds about to rain on Ponyville.

"Ok, you go to your right at that corner over there and keep on going straight till you see the sign Clop Cafe!"
...that's it? Kale thought to himself. For a place that had seemed so hard to find, the directions were so simple; it certainly didn't make him feel any smarter, that was for sure. But at least he wouldn't be aimlessly wandering around Ponyville anymore. Realizing he'd stalled on this train of thought, Kale brought himself back to reality. "Oh, er, thanks!"
The expression of gratitude was met with yet another hard stare. Visibly uncomfortable, Kale shrank back a little, though he did his best to retain something that could almost be called a smile. (If anything, he probably just looked nauseated--faking expressions wasn't exactly his special talent.) After apparently having gotten her fill of looking at him, Rainbow Dash flew off wordlessly, leaving the bemused Kale in her wake. "Um...thanks again! Bye!..." he called after her, wondering if he'd offended her somehow.
Great. First pony he'd met, and he'd already messed up.
Sighing, Kale turned to go down the road that Rainbow Dash had told him to. Hopefully he could do better the second time around...

Rainbow Dash felt happier than usual with a slight quirk to the lips, she swiveled her head to the left with great interest at a cool hat with everlasting feathers. The endless rainbows upon rainbows on top of each other with glorious waves and curls had shown the beauty and elegance of it. And a cape with small blue sequins and red ones as well, gold stripes were decorated with glitter carelessly put on. This is definitely Dash’s outfit that will make her look totally awesome at the midnight race. Hopefully know one will know about this race since it would be against Kylie. The thought of Kylie made Dash shiver, for only Kylie can scare Dash in a race.
Dash held her head high as she passed the shop, “I don’t need a stupid cape and hat.” Dash thought bitterly as she kept on going. It seems she won’t be buying anything after all.
