The Ponyville bookstore was crowded, to say least. Ponies waited in line for the newly released Daring Do novel, The Search for the Stone Heart. Filled with maddening rows of bookshelves, along with a multitude of loquacious and querulous ponies, it was rather an uncomfortable place to be in; and Rainbow Dash loathed being in a strait environment like this because her wings and joints got stiff from the lack of active movement, though, luckily, she was next in line to get her copy of the novel.
Rumour had it that this novel would feature a small biography on A.K. Yearling, and how she comes up with fantastic ideas for her novels; but Rainbow knew it was a mindless pretence that the fan base created to generate speculation. Rainbow and her …show more content…
He glanced up at Rainbow and said, “I’m sorry. I don’t see your name on the list of pre-orders.”
Rainbow’s facial nuances twitched in confusion and vexation. “Can you repeat that again?”
“I don’t see the name of ‘Rainbow Dash’ on the list of pre-orders,” he said.
Rainbow’s euphoric smile had dwindled to a dissatisfied expression. “But how? I ordered it a month ago.”
“I don’t know. Another employee might’ve tossed it out. Didn 't you get a receipt?”

“Shut up!” Rainbow said aloud, stopping in her tracks, her furious voice travelling into the distance. The outburst of anger disrupted nearby ponies, and they stopped to stare at her, pondering whether or not she was addressing them. Some of them glared maddeningly at her for the cause of disturbance, whilst others had a genuine and sincere expression of concern.
Embarrassed by her sudden eruption, Rainbow’s cheeks reddened, and a simian grin marked her face. “Hehe, sorry about that guys. Don’t mind me, I was just leaving.” Flaring her wings out, like an enraged dragon about to take charge, Rainbow lanced into the sky, leaving the perplexed ponies behind; and as her elevation increased the sight of the entire town swam into Rainbow’s gaze.
In the centre of Ponyville, the library stood reticently, away from the in-town distractions, despite it being surrounded by the tiny dots of individual entities that continued on with their daily lives. The structure was so obvious and lucid to Rainbow.
Maybe Twilight has a copy of the new Daring Do book.
Making up her mind, she descended her way to visit the library, in hopes that her friend had a copy of The Search for the Stone
