Catcher of the Shy
[At the Cotton Candy Café...]
“Alright, we need to get this party going soon so that we can bring it to Star Catcher’s shy friends,” said Razzaroo.
“Are they nice?” asked Starlight.
“We met them before and became friends with them,” said Pinkie Pie. After Skywishes and I sang a song, they had no problem with us.
“Where’s the party going to be again?” asked Minty.
“The plan was for it to be in the sky where my friends could see it, but I think it should be where the last one was, Butterfly Island,” said Star Catcher. This way we won’t have any problems if it’s windy or the weather isn’t being helpful.
“Great idea, Star Catcher,” said Pinkie Pie. Now we’ll need to make this one different than the last one.
“If this is party, you’ll need cake,” said Cotton Candy.
“Ice Cream too,” said Starlight. I got you covered there.
“What could we do for gifts?” asked Patch.
“What if we made a charm bracelet for each of them?” asked Triple Treat.
“Perhaps we could decorate Butterfly Island with something,” said Star Catcher.
“A giant banner,” said Pinkie Pie. We could hang it or place it on the island with poles.
“I can take care of that, Pinkie Pie,” said Star Catcher.
“I’ll help with the cake,” said Bon Bon.
“Great,” said Triple Treat.
“Let’s get this party ready to go!” said Pinkie Pie. *they all dash off to do their jobs* [A few hours later…]
“All set,” said everyone back from their tasks.
“Now we’ll just have to head over there and find hiding places,” said Star Catcher.
“We have a balloon so we’ll meet you over there,” said Minty giggling.
“This is going to be a great party,” said Melody.
“You said it,” said Pinkie Pie. *they head off* [At Butterfly Island…]
“Where is everyone?” asked Skywishes.
“Maybe they truly don’t know about the party,” said Sweetheart.
“That’s the point, Sweetheart,” said Bright Eyes.
“I see them coming, everyone hide,” said Star Catcher. *everyone quickly finds hiding places*
“What’s all this?” asked Coconut Grove.
“Looks like a party,” said Thistle Whistle. Yup, a party indeed. *she whistles*
“SURPRISE!” said everyone appearing from their hiding places.
“Who are those other ponies?” asked Cloud Climber.
“They don’t look like us at all,” said Coconut Grove.
“Nope, not at all,” said Thistle Whistle. *she whistles again*
“To all of my friends on Butterfly Island, this party is for you,” said Star Catcher. We have some ponies we want you to meet so please try not to be shy and come meet them. *the pegasai cautiously approach*
“It’s okay, Thistle Whistle, they’re our friends,” said Pinkie Pie. We want you to meet Starlight, Sweetheart, Melody, Bright Eyes, Patch, Clover and Bon Bon.
“Are you sure they’re okay?” asked Thistle Whistle.
“They’re really nice,” said Pinkie Pie. We hang out with them all the time. *the Tales ponies and the pegasai meet each other*
“Wow, more Pegasus Ponies,” said Patch. Way cool.
“They don’t look that bad,” said Coconut Grove.
“I agree, definitely agree,” said Thistle Whistle. *she whistles*
“Let’s show them around,” said Cloud Climber. *the ponies set off*
“This probably means they won’t be shy with us anymore,” said Pinkie Pie.
“I think you might be right, Pinkie Pie,” said Star Catcher. Friends like these help shyness go away.
