Aqua had to stay with Blue Fedora for about a week before she was finally healed. She sat on Blue Fedora’s couch, waiting for him to get ready to come with her. “Hurry up, Fedora. Everypony must think I’m dead por now.” She called. “Okay, hold on a moment… okay, I found some money to buy train tickets with.” He said, trotting down the stairs. “Finally. Now I can go home. I hope Fluttershy took care of Quaky for me.” She said, hopping off the couch. “Now Aqua, your minor injuries have healed, but your wing is still broken and your stab wound on your shoulder needs a little más time to—stop scratching the stab wound! Do tu want it to open up again?” he dicho as she started to scratch at the scar sewn shut on her shoulder. “Well, I’m sorry! It itches! Now, can we go instead of standing around all day?” she snapped. “Yeah, just take it easy, though. tu don’t want to be hurt más than tu already are.” He said, putting a black fedora with a blue arrendajo, jay feather sticking out of it on his head. He trotted out the door with Aqua following, and she gazed around at the grand city, and the ponies that dwelled within it. “The ponies here look really… uppity.” She said. “Yeah, I guess they are. I’ve lived here all my life, so I guess I never noticed it.” he said. They trotted up to the train station, and Aqua Marine waited patiently for Blue Fedora to get the train tickets. He trotted up siguiente to her, and waited with her. A few minutos later, the train screeched into station, and the doors opened, and ponies started flowing off the train as others got on. “Come on, Aqua.” He said, trotting adelante, hacia adelante to get on the train. He handed the conductor the tickets as Aqua picked a asiento and sat down. Blue Fedora sat siguiente to her. Aqua stared out the window all the way back home, looking at all the sights flashing by.
The train pulled into Ponyville, and Aqua trotted down the road, grateful to be back in a familiar place. Suddenly, she was crowded as Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, Rarity, Peak, and even arco iris Dash gathered around her, all talking at once. “SHUT UP!! One at a time, please!” Aqua shouted, stamping her hoof on the ground. “We were so worried when tu went missing, Aqua! Where were you?” Peak said. “Yeah, and are tu all right, sugarcube? tu look kinda beat up.” aguardiente de manzana, applejack said. “Oh dear, your mane looks simply awful! tu must let me fix it up.” Rarity then said. “Guys, it’s all right. I just sorta… bumped my head, fell down a gorge, and floated down a river, unconscious. Blue Fedora here saved me.” She said, stepping out of the way to mostrar the blue unicorn standing behind her. “Er… it was nothing…” he dicho nervously, rubbing the back of his neck. “Sugar, tu saved another pony’s life! THAT’S nothing?!” aguardiente de manzana, applejack said. “Um…” Suddenly Pinkie Pie hopped up. “Ooh! You’re cutie mark’s a hat! What’s your special talent?” she randomly said. “My what? Oh, my special talent is making and decorating hats.” He said. Pinkie Pie giggled, and arco iris Dash burst out laughing. “What?! What’s so funny?” he said. “Well, tu see, making hats ain’t really… common… for stallions.” aguardiente de manzana, applejack explained, holding back laughter. “Oh, I don’t really think it’s funny. It’s a wonderful talent.” Fluttershy said. “I agree with Fluttershy. It is a very respectable talent indeed.” Rarity said. “Rainbow, Pinkie, stop laughing! You’re making him uncomfortable.” Twilight snapped. “Yes, Twilight.” They moaned.
“I never even wanted to make hats.” Blue Fedora grumbled to Aqua as she showed him around Ponyville. “I wanted to be a detective.” Aqua looked at him sympathetically. “Well, um… I can see why it bugs tu that… oh, never mind. I’m not good at that type of thing.” Aqua said. He snorted and rolls his eyes. “Figures. So, were tu born in Ponyville?” he asked. She lifted an eyebrow at him. “What? No! Yous ain’t evah seen anypony mo’ Manehattan than me.” She dicho in a mock accent. He laughed. “I’m glad I have tu as a friend, Aqua.” He said. She blushed, feeling embarrassed. “Oh, I wouldn’t exactly say friends… más like good acquaintances.” She said. “Oh, well…” Blue Fedora said, feeling a little let down. “Oh, fine. I’ll consider tu a friend. Now, let’s go to Sugarcube Corner. They have great cupcakes.” Aqua said, trotting away with her new friend following.
