story swap, r1

The rules:
1)	No telling what “should” happen next. Setting up a scene to allow for only a few (or even one) outcomes is fine, leaving notes about what would work best (in your opinion) is not.
2)	I may not alter the parts you wrote, and you may not alter the parts I wrote.
3)	The only exception to rule 2 is in the form of adding notes, {like this}.
4)	Notes are suggestions at most, and nothing more.
5)	Each part of the story must have some logical connection to the previous parts. Starting a flashback when someone is telling a story? Fine. Jumping to another scene without any rhyme or reason to the jump? Not good.
6)	The story is over when we both agree it is.
7)	If I break a rule, call me out on it. I will do the same to/for you.

One more thing: this is not necessarily going to be a tie-in to CB:StG, unless you can make it so ;-)



{Chapter 1, part 1, by Ray10k}

It was a day like any other, in the (mostly) quiet little town of Ponyville. Celestia’s sun had only barely passed the horizon, and most of Ponyville’s inhabitants were only just getting out of their beds. One of these ponies was a certain stallion, following his everyday routine:

Roll over once more, try to deny the beginning of a brand new day, give up the fight after only a few minutes, grudgingly get out of bed, stumble across the hall and into the bathroom, give self a quick inspection in the mirror.
{so, remember that one silly idea I had a while ago? Well, here is the first part. Just copy-paste the entire thing on to pastebin, add your part, and give me result. If you don’t agree with the rules, let me know. They are only a first draft.}
