Twilight walked casually through streets she remembered fondly and stores she didnt recognise. Canterlot had changed so much in the time she had been gone, and she visited only two months ago. The posh ponies however, were pretty much unchanged. Twilight never disliked them. They weren't bad ponies, they just had a low tolerence for those less fortunate. Maybe she justified them since she had been around them often, she didn't know.
The air was nice, and a few pegasi had taken to the sky, loftly fluttering past. This place had brought back memories, but it was no longer her home. The castle with Celestia, however, was her home. Twilight supposed she had two homes. She pushed past the crowds and found a more open area with some breathing room. She stood back and looked around, the town bustling as always. It was fun to remember, if only for a minute...

One Pegasus had landing to the ground. The Light-Grey pony turned to see the Lavender unicorn. She seemed a bit lost to his point of view. He walked a bit closer to her to her, but stay a few feet away. He wasn't sure why he would bother somepony he never met, but she was just... standing there while others walked by. Feeling a bit less shy, he found his voice.
"U-umm... Excuse me..." He called calmly.

Twilight heard a voice a few feet away, almost lost in the clammor of the crowds all around. She turned to see a pegasus standing a bit away. Twilight was slightly hesitant, but he seemed to be nice enough. She made her way over to him smiling politely. "Yes? Do you need help with something?" She extended a hoof to shake with the unknown pony. "Oh, and my name is Twilight. Twilight Sparkle."

Shien took her offering hoof and shook it. "Shien" he replyed, calmly. "My name is Shien". He released his hoof as he returned to his point. "Oh, no! I'm in no need of help... I just noticed you standing there, staring at the skies... Sorry if I interrupt any thoughts you were thinking"

Twilight tilted her head in thought. Shien looked so.... out of place amongst the Canterlot crowd. The good kind of out of place. It reminded her of home back at Ponyville, where everything isn't so formal. "Are you sure you're okay?" She asked. ".... You aren't from around here, are you?" Twilight was somewhat relieved to talk to somepony without the thick Canterlot accent.

"Well... No, I'm not" He chuckled sheepishly. "I just live on a cloud above Ponyville and mind my own business". Shien awkwardly moved a bit closer so that he was beside Twilight and stared up into the sky. "I don't believe your from around her either, hmm?"

Nodding, Twilight found herself agreeing with Shien. "I used to live here.... But not any more. Im the librarian back at Ponyville." She looked at the pegasus. "Do you need help finding your way around? I mean, the stores change really often, but im still familiar with the districts." She asked. Twilight let out a soft sigh. Canterlot was always so busy and changed so fast. She had gotten used to Ponyville's simplicity.

Shien, after taking consideration, nodded. "This isn't my first time coming here, but I don't remember where to go before I bump my head into something". He let out a bit of a chuckle and nodded his head. "Some directions would be nice"

Twilight gave Shien a smile and a nod before looking around her, trying to get her bearings.They were near the outskirts of the bustling city. She began to walk toward the center of the town, gesturing for her new companion to follow. She looked back at him, saying "Are you looking for some place specific, or were you just wanting a general look around?" As they got a bit closer, she noted a few of the stores were the same from her last visit, but not many.

Shien began looking around at the different stores they walked by. One was a fancy restaurant and another was a bakery. He could just imagine the tasty treats they were making in there. But Shien wasn't too hungry. He could also come back later once he got used to all the places. Shien turned back to Twilight. "Well... Now that you mention it, I heard that there was a huge museum around here... It sound's very interesting". Shien had also heard about a new attraction as well. It sounded interesting.

Suddenly, a spark lighted in Twilight's heart. Ah, the museum. She was glad to hear it was still standing. Celestia wouldn't let them take it down, now would she? Second only to the royal library, the museum was one of Twilight's favorite places to visit in Canterlot. It featured all sorts of Equestrian history, from paintings, to sculptures, from historical exhibits, to ancient artifacts.
And the best part? It always had some new and amazing addition. They had to go! "I know just where it is, come on!" She said, obviously eager and excited. She quickened her pace, checking periodically behind her to see if Shien was still behind her. Before they knew it, they were in front of the museum, looking just as grand and large as ever. It gave Twilight a warm fuzzy feeling to see it once more.

Shien's eyes went as wide as dining plates. The Museum wasn't at all what he expected to be. No, it was twice more beyond his expectations. The building itself was an ancient artifact. "This place... Is Amazing!" Shien said astonishly. Without a second thought, grabbing twilight by the hoof, Shien dashed off with his companion into the historical place and began his quest for knowledge.

Twilight giggled at Shien's awe. It made her happy to see somepony take as much interest in the museum as she did. She took in a deep breath of air. "Its good to see this place again." She began walking idly forward, remembering the old, and gasping at the new exhibits. Everything here was always astonishing, even if you had already seen it before.
They made their way into a bigger room full of very tall and towering statues. Twilight looked around. The place wasn't empty, and it wasn't bustling. She kind of liked it that way. Just then, a pony caught her attention. Was that Fenris? It seemed she could never quite get away from him. Not that she minded. Across her lips spread a smile, and in her heart bloomed a warm and fuzzy feeling she'd grown accustomed to when seeing him. She walked towards the pony, calling his name in questioning. "Fenris? Is that you?"

Fenris had guided DuMourne to the place he had needed to go and had then flown off to occupy himself with something. He had been heading towards the library when he had caught glimpse of the museum down below.
He had visited it before, of course. There likely wasn't a foal in Canterlot who hadn't, it had been a school trip and as most foals do he had found it to be slightly boring, his attitude had changed later, but he still grinned inwardly at that particular memory.
He thought it would be nice to visit again, to see if there was anything he remembered still there. He tilted himself and started a slow downwards spiral towards the museum landing on the street in front of it and taking a moment to gaze at the buildings exterior before heading inside.
He had just taken a look at one of the smaller exhibits and was heading towards another one when he heard something that brought his heartbeat up and made him grow a warm smile. He turned towards the voice that had asked him the simple question and sure enough there she was stanging only few steps away with a smile on her face.
"Hello there Twilight." He took the the few steps closing the gap between them.
"I didn't know you were in Canterlot as well." He said a slight surprise in his voice.
"It's a pleasant surprise though." He said nudging the side of her face a little before withdrawing.
"What brings you here?"

Twilight smiled, blushing away at the nuzzling. "I-i was just visiting. Had a bit of actual business to do, but nothing too important." She then gave him a slightly perplexed look. "A better question is why are you here? We seem to keep.... running into each other." She said, giggling slightly. "You arent following me are you?" She said, mostly jokingly.
She glanced behind herself remembering that there was more to the world than Fenris. She waved Shien over to join them in the conversation. "Fenris, this is Shien. We just met, but he seems nice enough. I thought I would show him around a bit." She said, nodding to the newly met pegasus.
