An AU debut

[Deleted]

I need a RP sample for Legacy, but I can't think of anything. Anyone want to have a little AU threadness to help me out here? Please ^^ I'd start it off, but I'm kinda drawing a blank.

It was a hot, sunny-sun-summer day in Ponyville, and Nya was lovin it! There were no clouds in the almost-glaringly blue sky, and it felt like the heat itself was radiating back up from the ground, too. Even the wind was hot and dry! It was, as folks around here termed it, a 'scorcher' and anypony with business to do did it as quickly as possible and then went and cooled off in the nearest river, pond, or stream, unless they sheltered in some shade, instead. It was the third day of the week like this, and there were rumors of a national cloud shortage.

To Nya, though, days like this were like being home again. Long, hot, endless days to play in, doing whatever the little zebra filly pleased. And what pleased her right now was a display of watermelons that an exhausted vendor was selling for 15 bits a melon.

Nya had no money. But she was going to have a melon.

In an instant, the little zebra foal selected a melon, pounced upon the stand, and pulled her chosen fruit from the pile. This was where two unconsidered circumstances worked against her. One, the watermelons were big and there was no way Nya could either fit it in her mouth or get it to stay on her back. And two, that the melon so very carefully selected was, in fact, at the bottom of the pile and removing it caused the entire stack to rumble, and then roll and bounce out of the stand and over the little zebra and across the market green, likely to trip up any other unfortunate pony who happened to be passing by!

Legacy herself had been sipping on a limeaid that she had gotten earlier. Just some soda and some lime juice she'd squished out of a lime from her garden. Nom. It was good. Any how. The peaceful, abet deserted locale, was suddenly shattered when a wall of bouncing watermelons was careening all over the place. A few of them smashed open on the ground or on buildings. Legacy herself narrowly avoided getting hit by one of them herself. She looked around, all ruffled and startled. "Watch yourself!" She shouted at the world, then looking around for where ever the melons had come from.

Nya, who had avoided getting crushed by the tidal wave of melons simply by sheer luck, flashed past, the owner of the melons in hot, angry, and very loud pursuit. Skidding on a patch of smashed melon, the little Zebra changed direction very deftly and dashed underneath the poor vendor, who first slipped, then tripped, then tumbled over. As she passed Legacy a second time, much closer, much much much closer; as in, a couple inches from her face closer- Nya scooped up the glass of limeade and carried it off with her!

Well, for a few seconds, anyway. stopping for just a moment a few feet off. Nya upended the glass into her face, getting at least some of it into her mouth before dropping it and giving the mare a mischievous grin and a tail flick, as if to say- what are you going to do about it?

[Deleted]

How unique. A zebra with blue stripes. She'd seen Zecora of course. So this was the second zebra she'd seen. So maybe blue stripes were common amongst zebras. She had no idea. Interesting necklace she had.

Her musing was interrupted by the zebra swiping her lime-aide. "Noooo!" Her lime-aide! How could she? "Your Aunt Zecora is going to get an earful about you young missy!" Legacy shouted, taking after the zebra filly out of instinct.

What a waste! Her lime-aide spilled on the floor! What a shame!

Anyhow, Legacy was assuming that Zecora was her aunt because there weren't many zebras around here. So she was probably visiting family. And Zecora didn't exactly seem like a mother to her personally. So she was assuming that the zebra was an aunt to this filly.

Nya laughed as she took off, not a mean laugh, rather a joyful, life-loving kind of giggle. It was, to the little Zebra, just a harmless prank, and Legacy's chasing was all part of the game. The striped filly was delighted to get yet another pony involved. She wasn't concerned about Legacy's threat to tell Zecora about her naughtiness because she wasn't actually related to the rhyming zebra. In fact, they hadn't even met face-to-face yet, though almost every pony she met asked her about it.

Dodging around a cart that had stopped for the mighty melon flood, Nya looked back over her shoulder to watch. Now both Legacy AND the vendor were chasing after her! Fun! Unfortunately for the zebra foal, looking backwards meant that she didn't see the the melon in front of her, and with a sudden yelp, she tripped over it and rolled into another stand... one that just happened to be selling eggs. The eggs, unlike chickens, took flight.

or at least, they were, until the eggs were sent crashing into the street as well. Nya was making quite a mess today!

Legacy continued to chase the filly until she crashed into the egg stand, then sighing and putting a hoof to her face. When she removed it there was a smear of watermelon all over her unamused face. She had forgotten that she had stepped into some smashed water melon while chasing the filly.

She took in a slow breath in and tried to chase the filly while she was stalled by the eggs. "End of the line little filly! You're gonna destroy the whole market at this rate." At least she hoped it was. She wasn't unfit by any means of the word, but it was scorching outside.

She doubted that Zecora or the zebra filly's parents had enough money to pay for it...

Had someone dumped Celestia or something? Maybe that was why it was so hot. Hell hath no fury like the alicorn Princess scorned after all. Really.
