HOOVESWEEK 5

[Morning, Equestrians! It’s that time again, and the newsponies have a new, fresh stock of Equestria's most-read magazine!]




Queen Chrysalis is at last fallen! But in her place, a new changeling queen has claimed the throne. Is she really sincere about peace, or are we going to see another invasion from those beastly insects who have caused nothing but trouble since the royal wedding? And for that matter, can we trust the off-worlders who have been threatening Equestria since the beginning of Nightmare Night?

BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE:

-A report that Pinkie Pie has created a monster! Our science editor discusses the birth of the creature called Princess Pumice and what it means for the idea of "life" itself.
-A look at the crazy fog which plagued Ponyville. Cloudsdale's weather czar has announced a possible connection between the fog and the disappearing clouds that have now been reported as far west as Appaloosa.
-A report on PONIES RISING FROM THE DEAD. What is that even about? Are they pony-phoenix hybrids? Also, one of the murdered is a murderer and living now on the Ponyville commune. Seems like a dangerous place.
-An opinion piece defending Discord and his crazy antics over the past few months, hinting that his motivation was...love?
-Another op-ed on the sudden influx of off-worlder dragons. Are they getting more dangerous? They certainly seem to be doing something! And why are they harassing kitties?
-A further report on the disappearance of needed rainclouds. The problem seems to be spreading to Baltimare and Hollow Shades now, with local authorities stumped.
-Proof positive of the steamy relationship between Iron Liz and Harvey Finevoice. A kiss and a proposal happened; is a wedding not far behind?
-A review of the best Hearth's Warming gifts from this year around Equestria, including crystalberry jam and the latest installment of Daring Do! Just watch out for that grinch of an 'evil overlord', lest he try and steal them from you!
-Travel and foaleign news (or is it?) is reporting the shocking existence of moon ponies. Not only this, but said mysterious off-world ponies have begun opening up trade and tourism channels through several countries, including Griffaltar and Great Bridle. We're here to give an exclusive review of what to do, what to see, and how anypony can now experience this new frontier through an affordable international intermediary!
-A retrospective of Manehatten's Winter Fashion Week. Included is a profile on the winner of this year's couture contest, 國辔 of Galloxia*, and pictures of the first-timer's out-of-this-world designs and even crazier shoes.

So come one, come all, and read HOOVESWEEK! Only 5 bits a copy - now and forever!

"Ponyville", huh? [So, that's where he's at.]

If that's the case, then I guess we'll hafta figure out a way to prove to these busy bodies with too much time on their hands that we're better than that!

Yep, that's the name of this town.

Considering that a lot of trouble has been popping up lately, that might be easier said than done. Especially since Equestria as a whole is usually pretty peaceful.

[He then sighs.] I'm more surprised they haven't tried this sooner since quite a few of us have been here since April.

Oh, well, that's just great.

[And Sonic hops up on his tiny feet and tosses the magazine back... on the poor salesmare's head.]

Right now, I'm starving - I had a bunch of these gems earlier. No taste whatsoever. I could kill for a chili dog right about now, though.

[The salesmare shakes a hoof at Sonic, but other than that, just glares at him. Tails makes an apologetic smile at the salesmare before returning his attention to Sonic.]

Afraid that's going to be out of the question. The ponies here can't eat meat and I don't think trying to invent a veggie version of chili dogs would work. There's veggies, fruit and stuff from the bakery like bread or cupcakes, but that's about it.

I can make you some pizza though. I've learned how to make some from scratch.
