Fashion Highway: The road to success

[FakeSmile]

Sheer Luck looked at the mares with a confused expression.
Sheer Luck: Um. . . Yeah, I came over ter style your manes. Orders from Panini. You two are acting like I am about ter shave your heads.Well whatever, if you fink your manes are fine then I won't waste me time.
The mare shrugged and turned away. She wasn't going to stand there and beg to style their manes; she had better things to do. She'll leave the head ache to Panini.

* Panini came back with a big smile on her face, but her smile quickly vanished when she saw Akira and Sparkle's manes where still the same * * she walked over to them * Why are your manes still the same??

[Lullaby Princess]

Well, Panini, we think our mane styles are just fine...

[Lemon D. Muffin Pony]

Just fine?? JUST FINE?! Your mane styles are SO last season! This is a high-priority fashion show, and I expect you BOTH to look like your flawless talents! You HAVE to look the part! Now get your mane styles fixed, or your BOTH fired! * she sighed, growing tired of yelling, and walked away *

[Lullaby Princess]

* before Sparkle could argue, Panini was gone. She sighed * well..

Sheer Luck found a lounge area with yummy snacks. A small smile formed on er face as she decided she deserved a break. Picking up a small sandwich, the mare took a bite as she thought about the two mares that rejected her help. She wondered if she went to the right ponies, they didn't really look like models to her. Sheer Luck shook the thought out of her mind; she didn't want to think about work while on a break.

...well... I guess we could touch up our manes... * she walked over to the lounge area and sat down *

[Lemon D. Muffin Pony]

* Panini came back, yelling at a stallion * GREAT! JUST GREAT! YOU POSTPONED MY FASHION SHOW, SO I WILL POSTPONE YOUR FACE! * it was very unruly to see Panini fighting with a stallion.... which she was winning, but she was so enraged at something, that she seemed to have gotten unnatural strength *

[Lullaby Princess]

* Sparkle jumped when she heard Panini's yelling. She grimaced when she heard fighting and gasped when she heard that the fashion show was postponed * Postponed?!?! It-It cant be!! This is my one chance to show that I'm good at something! Oh no! * she looked like she was about to cry *

"I guess this is a bad time to ask..." Illusion had said to himself, having gone up ahead, peeking around a corner to see Panini basically curb-stomping a stallion bigger than he was.
However, that wasn't about to stop him from doing something else. Getting himself some popcorn and watching the show that wasn't about fashion, oblivious to Sparkle's presence.

[Rarity Diva Pony]

* Akira just blinked, watching Panini fight. To her surprise, she was winning * ....wait, what did she say about it being postponed?!? Noo! It cant be postponed! * she then knew that that was what Panini was fighting about, so she started cheering for Panini *

[Lemon D. Muffin Pony]

* Panini was breathing heavily and patted her now wild mane back down. The current state of the stallion was... an atrocious sight. Panini caught her breath and calmed down, but she was still angry * ...So sorry you had to see that, everypony...um.. go back to work! * she said to the staring ponies. Panini sat down in a chair and closed her eyes, rubbing her forehead * Ugh, my head hurts...

Sheer Luck was too focus on eating the free food to notice Panini beating up someone. After one last mini sandwich, she decided it would be best to get back to work. The mare didn't notice Akira in the lounge are, and walked right past her. As she left the are, Sheer Luck was approach by two mares who looked like they needed some mane help. With a smile, Sheer Luck agreed and led the two to her work station.

As I trotted home, I thought about the Shop I just walked out of, it looked nice. I wondered if they were hiring... I shook it off and walked into the complex, up the stairs, an into my apartment.

[Lullaby Princess]

* Sparkle walked over to Panini * Um, Panini, what happened, specifically? Was the fashion show really postponed??

[Lemon D. Muffin Pony]

Yes. Yes it is. * Panini said simply, still rubbing her forehead *

[Stryder221]

"Well, at least now you don't need to worry about your mane for a while. Probably." Illusion had said, standing not too far behind Akira, before putting on a confused look.
"But... Why did you need to fix them up, anyway? It shouldn't really matter unless you're up on the stage yourself. You only make the dresses, right? Surely, there's other ponies better suited for the job of wearing them. Or am I just getting confused? Er, not that you're bad looking, mind." He was quick to add.

As he awkwardly cleared his throat, looking away, the unicorn suddenly let out a silent gasp.
And then there was a big grin on his face, as if he suddenly figured something out.

Sheer Luck still was out of the loop as she fixed the pony's mane. The client wasn't really sure if she should stop Sheer Luck or not. Once Sheer Luck was done, she grinned big at her work. The client thanked Sheer Luck and then informed her of the news. A large frown formed across her face; all this work for nothing. Sheer Luck started to clean up the station and her tools. As she was cleaning, she started to think where to go next

[Rarity Diva Pony]

Well... can you try and.. and un-postpone it or something?! This is a HUGE deal, here!

[Lemon D. Muffin Pony]

* Panini sighed * I will try the best I can... just... go finish up here and leave.. I will notify you if anything comes up.. consider this an.. unplanned vacation.. * and with that, Panini got up and left *
