While Applebloom discovered she had abilities she was unaware of Rarity decided to chose this moment to make a public unveiling.

Rarity looked at herself in the mirror one last time as she checked that everything was in order. Since returning from her trip to Baltimare the unicorn had been working up the courage to publicly wear the new outfit that Petina and Carousel had helped her find. Today she was going to change that.

Initially she was a little nervous but as day progressed she grew more comfortable wearing it, and she started to enjoy the attention as she went about taking care of her business.

It was after 4 in the afternoon when the fashionista completed her last errand. As the mare stepped out of City Hall her stomach let out a loud growl. Realizing she hadn't eaten since breakfast Rarity started heading back to her boutique when she spied the Bucking Mare Tavern.

She smiled and changed her course. Why not. She thought. I can grab a bite to eat there and get something to drink as well.

With that thought she trotted into the tavern.

To be continued.
