Equestria Broken :: MLP Fanfiction

Equestria broken - Eight : Intentions

Note: This chapter contains some French. I do not speak french, I tried my best to find the correct usage of each phrase that the character from Prance uses. If I am incorrectly representing the language, please let me know so I can make corrections. I do not mean to misrepresent the language but I tried my best. I am currently learning German for future chapters. I plan to learn French too but my brain can only handle one thing at a time.

Phrases I used and their translation:

Bonne soirée monsieur -> formal greeting
Excusez-moi? -> Pardon?
Monsieur -> Sir
Oh, je suis désolé -> I'm sorry
Si vous plaît -> Please
Mon nom est Cloud Glitter -> My name is Cloud Glitter
Oui -> Yes
Comment vous-appelez vous? -> Formal of what is your name
ta mère et ton père -> Your mother and your father
Bonne nuit -> Good night
un instant -> One moment
Au revoir -> Good bye (Can be used in formal situations)

For the way she talks, I used this Youtube video to get her accent in typed word:

Eight : Intentions

"You can count on me like one, two, three. I'll be there. And I know when I need it I can count on you like four, three, two and you'll be there. 'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do." Bruno Mars - Count on Me

"Those ponies were actually quite pleasant, unlike the present company." Glacier commented as she and her two stallions continued on their way to Los Pegasus.

Stratta folded his ears. "You know, I thought you were actually trying to change your attitude after we left Ponyville." he retorted, "I guess you're just a bitch, aren't you?"

The mare scoffed, "Well, you are no gentlecolt yourself, sir."

The three ponies had stayed only a few hours with the group of strangers, chatting with each other and exchanging stories prior to parting ways. Stratta had given them a few bits as compensation for the meal and Glacier was happy to be rid of the ugly boots, coat and gas mask she had recently purchased. Creed insisted on saying a prayer to his Goddesses that they would have safe travels and a prosperous life then they all said goodbye. The three of them walked away as the other six packed their camp back into their waggons.

Clout was setting an even slower pace than before but he was still determined to reach his destination. Stratta had suggested the two groups travel together but he received a rather irritated glare from their leader.

Knowing Clout's mood was still sour, the pegasus decided it would be better to not get into another childish fight with the mare. He decided that he needed to come up with a way to cheer him up. Stratta furrowed his brows as he figured stealing something might be the only way. He didn't know much about the crystal pony yet but he definitely knew almost everything irritated him. He glanced up from his hooves to look at the buckskin. Clout's ears were drooped down and his head was lowered. Though Stratta could not see his facial expression, his body language definitely said 'exhausted'. Finally he decided on somewhere they could get some proper rest. However, knowing what little he did, he figured the crystal pony would opt for scouting the soot mill first instead of going directly to sleep.

They had been walking in mostly silence for several hours and it was almost evening. They had followed the train tracks South through the thick White Tail Woods and Los Pegasus was finally within sight. Massive snow peaked mountains rose high to the left of the city and the sporadic cloud cover seemed to connect them to the highrise buildings. The large Applewood sign was clearly visible from their vantage point as it sat attached to the side of the mountain below the clouds. The tallest buildings in Equestria towered almost as high as their neighboring peaks and they were covered in lights, signs and advertisements.
