Party On

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

“Gah, what happened?” I mumbled as I slowly made my way back into consciousness. I then realized I was blindfolded as my open eyes were met with a thinck fabric. Then it hit me.

“Oh no.” I gasped. The cupcakes parody is real! Any minute now Pinkie would be cutting away at my body. But then again I wasn’t tied down which was a good sign, so maybe I had a chance!

“Uh, hello?” I called out hopefully. All of a sudden the blindfold was pulled off of my head and I came face to face with, you guessed it, Pinkie Pie.

“Surprise!” she yelled.

“Holy crap!” I blurted out. Pinkie had gotten me, and she had gotten me good. I was obviously inside the Apple family barn. It was decorated with hundreds of balloons and streamers, and there was pastries as far as the eye could see.

I then turned my attention to heavy breathing Pinkie Pie who was waiting for my opinion.

“How?” was all I gout get out. Pinkie took a big breath and then proceeded with the explanation.

“Well  you see when I first met you by the lake I could tell that you liked surprises just as much as I do and well I didn’t want to disappoint you so when my Pinkie sense told me that you already knew about the party at sugar cube corner I immediately changed it to be at Sweet Apple Acres! Since I knew were a hard nut to crack I knocked you out with that special apple so that you would have second thoughts about the party, and at the last minute I pulled the blindfold off of your head and SURPRISE a party just for you! So whaddya think?”

I sat silent as I let the hyperventilating Pinkie Pie catch her breath, once she clamed down, I proceeded to speak.

“I got to say Pinkie,” I said. “You got me good, hell you got me real good. Nobody err nopony has every given me a surprise like this before, you get an A+ from me!” I couldn’t tell if Pinkie was going to explode or sneeze by the face she was making but she quickly squeezed me with a tight hug.

“Glad you think so!” she beamed. “Now go and enjoy your party!” I smiled and then stood up to take in the view. I got to say Pinkie did a marvelous job decorating in such short time. There was even a giant ice sculpture depicting my likeness! How she was able to make that with out a model I will never know, but it didn’t stop me from enjoying it.

I then ran into the mane six, who I wasn’t properly introduced to, but Twilight soon took care of that.

“Girls, I’m sure you remember Michael from the lake the other day.”

“But of course!” gushed Rarity. I was a little alarmed the she remembered, I hope she didn’t remember what I said to her when I first saw her.

“I heard it was my fault you were.” She continued. “I can’t remember much of what happened, just that I woke up on Fluttershy’s back.” I let out a sigh of relief; hopefully her memory stays that way.

“Pleasure to officially make you acquaintance miss rarity.” I smoothly said as a bowed down and kissed her hoof.

“Ooh such a gentle colt!” she purred. Okay I’ve softened her up, now to test her generosity.

“I hear that you are quite the clothes maker,” I sucked up. “Would you be interested in making me a few items?”

“But of course dear!” she practically shouted. “You needn’t have to ask.”

“Very well then.” I responded. “And how much would that cost me?”

“Oh free of charge!” she gushed. “It’s the least I can do for causing you to be taken away from home!” Oh yeah! Free clothes for me!

“Well thank you very much!” I said. “And it was nice seeing you again.”

“Same to you darling.” said Rarity as she walked away. “Come by the shop anytime!”

I then turned to Applejack and Rainbow Dash who were both waiting to formally introduce themselves.

“Howdy pardner!” started Applejack. “I’m Applejack, owner of this here…”

“I’m Rainbow Dash!” the cyan pegasus interrupted. “Fastest flyer in all of Equestria!”

“Wow! Awesome to meet ya’ll” I said, extending my hand to Applejack who quit her sulking from Rainbow Dash’s interruption. However, Rainbow swooped in and intercepted my handshake.

“Ha-ha I’m all about awesome!” boasted the cocky pony.

“Gol’darnit, Rainbow! You’re always getting in the way!” fumed Applejack.

“Not my fault that somepony is too weak to keep up.” Egged Rainbow Dash

“Oh yeah?” challenged Applejack. And the before you knew it the two ponies were in the middle of a heated hoof wrestling match.

“I’m just going to go and say hello to everypony else.” I said quietly as I backed away. Those two and their feud, always at each others necks, how amusing. I then came to the final pony I had yet to introduce my self to.

“Hey I’m Michael!” I said extending my hand. The yellow pegasus took it and shook it gingerly.

“I’m Fluteshhh” she mumbled. Yeah I knew her name, but I couldn’t resist a show of cuteness.

“I’m sorry, didn’t catch that.” I lied.

“I’m Fluttershy” she managed to squeak out. Darn, she got it on her second try, oh well.

“Well it’s a pleasure to meet you Fluttershy.” I  said softly. “Maybe we’ll see each other around sometime.”

“Oh that would be, nice.” Said the soft spoken pony as she trotted away. Jeez she was just so cute! So sweet and innocent, and beautiful. No! No crushes on ponies Michael, but it’s so hard! She’s like a person she lives speaks and thinks like a human, but she isn’t a human!

Rubbing my head I decided to set aside that conflict for now and just enjoy the party. I came to a table to what looked like apple cider, hmm no alcohol anywhere. I guess its true, ponies don’t drink. I opened a bottle of cider expecting a sweet taste and took a gulp only to choke on the liquid. I curiously looked at the front of the bottle, on read: HARD Apple Cider 18+. So this was like their alcohol, very interesting. Satisfied I continued on drinking the beverage.

At this point I’m a little buzzed, but still all together. I noticed that the well know DJ  PON-3 was in attendance spinning away her records, but sadly it was the same boring music she played at Rarity’s fashion show. I pulled out my i-pod and amazingly found out it had about 10% battery left. Well its now or never, I approached the DJ and extended my iPod.

“Is there anyway you could hook this up to your speakers?” I asked hopefully.

“Hmm, I don’t think so.” She replied. “But I can probably magically synchronize it!”

“Great!” I then carefully selected the song and handed the iPod to the blue and white unicorn. Then her blue magical aurora surrounded both the iPod and the speakers as I crossed by fingers.

Sure enough the opening sequence of Bangarang by Skrillex started to sound out from the speakers. Now mind you I’m no dubstepper, this is only of my very few songs like this for intense work outs.

“Now it’s a party.” I said to Vinyl right as the bass dropped. The ponies reactions were priceless, some fainted dead away as others just stood there with wide eyes and open mouths. After the first minute or so however, they got used to it and were jumping up and down with the rhythm.

“This stuff is great!” shouted Vinyl over the music. “What do you call it?” Mulling over the options in my head, I picked out a good name.

“It’s called wubs!” I lied. Vinyl approved by nodding her head up and down. I then sat down to finish off my now sixth bottle of hard cider. I then noticed that it was extremely hard to keep my eyes open, and with Skrillex blasting in the background, I blacked out for my record 3rd time in a day and a half.
