Tubby Turmoil
[Behind the houses…]
"They've stolen our photos!" whispered Mary angrily to Stella and Stephanie.
"Not to worry, I have a copy of each on hoof and they're going with us," assured Stella.
"We need a new disguise since we were lucky to drop in from above," protested Mary.
"I've got that covered and this time, they can't throw us out because we won't fit in the security gate's opening," smiled Stella. *They dart off to their lair at Fat Foals Fortress* [At FFF…]
"So where are the costumes?" asked Mary.
"Right here," pointed Stephanie as Stella gets her costume on*
"All you two need to do to get your suits on is zip up the front when you get inside it. This way, they won't see the zippers and know it's a fake. As a bonus, you'll be feeling a balloon filled with jello in front of you once inside. That's to give the illusion that we're overweight. Just don't break it or you'll quickly be found out," explained Stella. *The others put their costumes on*
"What are our names since we can't use our real ones?" asked Mary.
"I'm calling myself Simone, you are Sabrina, Stephanie, and Mary is Madeline," replied Stella.
"The best part is that our real eyes are being used for the costume's eyes so it's already harder to tell real from fake," added Stephanie.
"It's not hard to see where you're going because of the holes for the eyes," said Mary.
"It's also easy to walk because the costumes are practically our size now let's go," added Stella. *They walk back to the school* [At the school…]
"They're not here," remarked Mary.
"Where could they have gone?" asked Stephanie.
"It doesn't matter. All we need to do is wait. They're somewhere in this town and eventually they'll see us," replied Stella. *Eduardo sees them*
"Oh new ponies I see? Eduardo's the name, charmed I'm sure," said Eduardo.
"Yeah, hi," said Stella in a more non-caring manner.
"We here at Pudgyville wish you a warm welcome," added Eduardo.
"Sure, sure, thanks, bye," muttered Stephanie before the three of them leave.
"Odd ponies they are," thought Eduardo. [Back with Bright Eyes and her friends…]
"At last, all the photos are lightened up but now we need to find where this Fat Foal Fortress is," said Bright Eyes.
"Let's try Goozle Areas and see where that gets us," replied Melody before clicking the link on Goozle's page. *The page loads*
"Nothing on it so the pony taking photos doesn't have one here yet," concluded Starlight.
"It might be close by if they're willing to get photos of Sweetheart," postulated Bon Bon.
"Sweetheart, dahling, We heard all about your dilemma. We love our figures, yes but this isn't the right way to go about it," said Rainbow Dash arriving with her friends.
"No one can keep this town from doing what they love and whomever is responsible for this cruel act, they will be held accountable," stated Eduardo.
"We now know the company that we believe is responsible named Fat Foal Fortress but we haven't a clue where that is," replied Bright Eyes to Eduardo.
"Why yes, that does seem logical," agreed Eduardo.
"We also know that the photos were doctored after they were taken to hide the logo printed on the photos," added Starlight.
"As your mayor, I will not stand to see you ponies being publicly embarrassed this way. Under no circumstances are you all to have your photos taken without your permission let alone posted elsewhere," assured Eduardo. [Later that day …]
"Do you guys know those ponies?" asked Melody.
"There's something odd about them," remarked Eduardo.
"Odd how?" questioned Bon Bon.
"Well for ponies that live here they weren't all that friendly when I met them," replied Eduardo.
"Just who are you ponies?" demanded Melody.
"I'm Simone and these are my friends Madeline and Sabrina," stated Stella.
"Welcome to Pudgyville…..I guess," said Melody slightly suspicious.
"Those photos will be your entire town's downfall," thought Stella to herself.
