Big-Mac gave a light smile at Carrot Top, he was glad to have met somepony, he really didn't want to go alone either. "Well, just grab a side and we'll pull, heck, maybe we can even get there faster now!" He moved to one side of the cart and gestured his hoof out for her to grab the other.
"So, in particular reason you're in such a rush? I ain't to interested in this fancy thing.."

While walking, Pinch noticed a couple of familiar faces not too far from him.
Carrot Top and Big Mac were seen talking to each other. The was enough to bring a small smile to his face. He thought that maybe if he had a little company beside him, it would make the trip seem a little less awkward.
He trotted toward the pair. "Hey Carrot Top, Mac. You two headin' my way?" he asked, trying his best to hide his anxiety.

"It's not that I'm interested in it, per say, it's just that I don't want to be the pony who doesn't go. It seems like everypony is gonna be there." She said.
Hearing hooves behind them, she turned around to see Pinch Harmonic trotting towards them.
"Hey Carrot Top, Mac. You two headin' my way?" he asked.
"Canterlot? Yeah, wanna walk with us?" Carrot Top replied.

Big-Mac heard a voice call up from behind him as he was talking to Carrot Top. He turned around to see Pinch right there. He didn't know much about the pony, except that he vandalized his barn once.
"Indeed we are Pinch, heck, I think everypony is attendin' tonight!"

"Sounds awesome," Pinch said, his smile slowly broadening.
He took a look at Big Mac, who had on his familiar stoic expression. Pinch had remembered the time he stupidly defaced the Sweet Apple Acres barn on a dare. Ever since then, he tried his best to stay on the Apple family's good side.
"Yeah, this thing looks like it'll pretty big. Seems like everypony and their mother's gonna be there," he said as they started to walk again.

About an hour had passed and Coby was perfectly ready. He wasn't wearing anything special just a black cloak that he had worn during his travel over to ponyville. He had washed and pressed it to make it look presentable once more. He had his sword slung over himself in that familiar way over his shoulders and right at his chest. The cloak covered him all the way to his hooves, which were snugly inside his iron bottomed shoes. He flicked his tail back and forth as his patience were starting to wear. "Ami, are you ready yet!?" He yelled up to his sister's room. "I'm almost done! I'm just fixing my mane, I'll be down in a second!" She quickly yelled back. At this, he sighed.
Shortly there after she flew downs the stairs. He glanced her over quickly and smiled. "Good, you look presentable..." He chuckled. She was wearing a nice pink dress. Her mane was done up in a braided tail and there was a matching pink ribbon tied to her tail. Upon her feet were little black shoes with a small white flower as an accent on the tips. "Well excuse me for not having fancy dancey clothes like yours.... That same cloak all the time..." She rolled her eyes. "What do you like about that thing?" He smiled. "It's light weight, durable, and water proof. It covers me, hides my blade, and I personally think it looks quite nice..." And with that, he headed out the door. "H-hey! Wait up!"
The road to Canterlot was a fairly good trip but they enjoyed looking at the new scenery.

The Scientist was just finishing up making Von Kaiser's meal for the night. "Now you be good, I don't want my leather chair ripped up because of you misbehaving." Von Kaiser barked in agreeance, and placed the bowl of food on the ground for him to eat. He checked his digital wrist watch. "If I got top speed in my mech, I should be able to make it there on time, or even better, early." The Scientist was already dressed...in his lab-coat. Perfectly white and buttoned, wearing black pants and brown dress shoes. He thought to himself "My outfit may not be the most fitting, but it's all I have, and my bipedal form isn't fitting enough." The Scientist was human in appearance, and slightly pale, due to his scientific nature. He said goodbye to his dog as he walked out the door and there it was, his mech.
It's armor was grey, but exceptionally shiny, it gleamed in the small bits of sunlight. The black glass cockpit opened and he jumped inside, it closing on top of him. He activated the machine and prepared it's flight systems. The legs of the mech lifted up and inside it, as tiny jets on the bottom of it kept it afloat. It's arms merged with the liquid-like metal armor. Wings suddenly shot out of the sides, and jets opened up on the back, and it suddenly went with a blur towards Canterlot, with a jet-blue flame trail behind it. "I hope the guards don't freak out about my mech again," he thought as he flew toward the ever-closing city of Canterlot.
(OOC: Crap, I might have to leave early tonight)

Spike ran out of the Everfree Forest in a hurry after delivering his last package to Zecora.
"Dang it, I'm going to be late for the feast in Canterlot! Of all times, why did that dumb hydra want to eat me... Glad Twilight left without me, I wouldn't want her to be late cause of me"
Spike ran as fast as he could back to the library where he grabbed the tuxedo he had worn to the Grand Galloping Gala out of the closet and put it on quickly.
"I hope I don't smell too much like dragon sweat from all that running..."
He rushes out of the library making sure to lock the door behind him as he ran as fast as he could to Canterlot.
"Everypony's going to be there for such an important celebration. And I'm going to be late for it! I hope I don't stick out too badly."
((OOC: So how am I doing so far?))

Cinder made her way to Canterlot alone, keeping her distance from anypony that passed. She kept her eyes on the ground, in order to avoid anypony from asking her why a pegasus pony was walking.
She walked daintily, being careful not to step on her new gown that Rarity had made for her. She was grateful to the unicorn, but she certainly did not want to draw attention to herself.

"Heh, it's like we got are own little pack to travel in ain't it?" Big-Mac said out loud to the others as he moved along. He was glad he met the other two, and wished they were just going somewhere quiet, not this loud, crowded event.
((OOC: You're doing well Spike!))

It took him ages, but at last, Typewryter had found what he was looking for. Buried among shelf after shelf of ancient tomes, a particular scroll finally stuck out.He tucked the worn, old parchment into his saddlebags and looked at himself in the mirror. He had never worn formal attire before, owing to the... unusual circumstances he was raised in, and the image in the mirror was strange to him. He turned to his raven, Munin and asked, "How do I look?" "Caaw!" the bird replied. "I suppose it'll have to do, then. Come, Munin, we have to hurry if we are to reach Canterlot in time for the party." "Caaw?" "Of course not! We're only going for that book." "Caaw?" "No Munin, no dancing. We have a job to do, now come on." The bird fluttered over and perched on Typewryter's horn as he turned and left his home for Canterlot. He hoped that those blueprints were still accurate.

"Yes it is, Big Mac ^^ I'm glad I have some ponies to talk to on the way there. I'd be awfully bored, and tired, just running all the way to Canterlot." Carrot Top said.

Cinder flicked her ears to show that she had heard the stallion speaking, but stayed quiet and continued to keep her distance from everypony. (I assume she's walking with them...)
However, as invisible as she wanted to stay, she was a clutz, and she tripped on the trail of her dress. A loud 'OOF!' was heard as she landed on her face.

"This sounds like it'll be pretty amazing. I mean, the parents of Celestia and Luna are finally showing themselves to us," Pinch said.
He had always heard of the two elder gods, but like everypony else, he never saw them in the flesh. All his life, he imagined what the two looked like, and even tried contemplating the age of the two. He actually kept himself up a few times just trying thinking about it.

As he walked along, Typewryter noticed a familiar looking orange pegasus walking along the road as well. Or rather, laying face first on the road... "Miss Cinder, is that you?"
