Chapter 3: Unforseen circumstances

I woke up sometime around 12 o’clock.  “God what a restless sleep..”  I thought to myself.  All the problems of last night didn’t slowly fade away either.  I guess that’s for the better.  Mite as well attempt to get up and try to make the best of this situation.  I don’t want Pinkie Pie to be roaming around my house doing God knows what.

        I got some clothes together, and made my bed in the most lazy manner possible then decided it was time to go great my “House Guest.”  I walked into the kitchen and smelt something very sweet.  Wait didn’t she say something about make cupcakes.  Oh God no.

        “Hello sleepy head!  Gee, you slept really late.  I didn’t know if you would ever get up.  I kinda wondered if you were dead.  But ha ha that’s a stupid thought.  What would you of died from?  I don’t think people can die from sleeping too much.  Hm, I wonder if people can die from that?  No that’s just silly.  Well anyway, I just finished making some SEARCH PARTY CUPCAKES!  They are still kind of hot, but you should be able to eat them.  I spent a long time making them.”

        “Well,  guess I wasn’t fast enough to save the kitchen.”

        “What?”

        “Oh nothing..  Well I guess I’ll try one of your cupcakes even though its not the most healthy breakfast item.  But what do I know about health.”

        I reached for the decorated cupcake.  And slowly took a bite out of it.  Not sure what to expect.  If she was good at making cupcakes, that would be another thing to add to the evidence of her really being from My Little Pony.

        It was.. Well, in simple terms.  Amazing.  I’ve never tasted anything like it before.  Well, I guess she could be Pinkie Pie from My Little Pony.  But I still refuse to give up my sanity.  I’ll say she is the one who is insane.  That will make me feel a little bit better about the situation.

        “Oh thanks!  It’s always been one of my better traits actually.  I really enjoyed making cupcakes.  It’s just so easy to do.  People say I talk to much, or go on forever.  But at least I make great cupcakes.  My friends really enjoyed them too.”

        I could sense that she was really missing her friends.  She probably wants to start searching for them soon too.  But sadly I have no means of transportation.  And walking around for six hours will not help a damn thing.  Hm there has got to be something I can do to either keep her occupied while I figure out a way to solve our transportation dilemma.

        “Hey, wow I feel embarrassed.  I’ve never asked you your name.  Silly me ha ha.”

        “Oh yeah, um, it’s Matthew.  Some call me Matt, but I don’t really care what you call me.”

        “Oh well Matt it is.”  She said giggling.  God why is she so bubbly.  Great trait to have in a situation like this I will admit.

        “Hey Matt!  I think we should get going and start the good old search for my friends!  The sooner I can find them, the more quickly we can figure out this whole mess.  Wait, how are we going to get around?  We can’t just walk around the wherever it is that we are just wondering about without any transportation!”

        Well I guess she is a little bit smarter then I presumed her to be.  I wonder if she has any ideas.

        “Yeah, I was just worrying about that myself.  Like you said, we won’t cover much ground just wondering around the fucking town on foot.”

        “Hey!  You said that word again!”

        “What?  What word?”

        “Fuck!  That’s like the 9000 time I’ve heard you say it!  It must mean something good if you keep using it a lot.  Also someone told me to fuck off while I was by their house last night.  But that doesn’t sound very nice to me..”

        “Oh yeah.  Um, why don’t you uh.  Refrain from using it?  I don’t think you would understand the meaning, or sound very proper using it.”

        “Proper?  And you don’t think I would understand the meaning of the word.  You are starting to sound a lot like Rarity, and Twilight.”

        Fuck I am starting to sound like them a little.  But still, a small girl with pink curly hair running around spouting off the word fuck like it’s the best word she has ever heard.  Yeah, I don’t want to be responsible for that.  And then trying to explain what the real meaning of that word is to a girl who is from a children’s cartoon.  Oh what am I saying, she isn’t from My Little Pony.  I need to stop thinking like that.

        “Yeah, well I guess we should start trying to find away around the whole no transportation thing.”  I said completely ignoring her previous statement.

        “Hm yeah.  I wish I knew where Rainbow Dash was at.  Then I could easily have her fly me around the city!  Gosh, I really am starting to worry about them.  I hope nothing bad happened to them.”

        God, now I am starting to feel pretty sorry for her.  Well it’s around 12:15.  I don’t want her to be here when my parents get home.  Oh fuck.  What am I going to do when they do get home and she is still here?  I guess I could try to hide her at a friends house.  Wait!”  Stewart’s parents are both out on spring break. I guess parents wanting away from their children is just common practice now.  I  could call him.  Tell him that I have a problem.  And then have him help with the search.  I guess a car could help with the whole covering ground issue.  Besides I have money I can give him for gas.  And he said he wanted to hang out a few days ago.  I hope this will work.

        “Hey Pinkie.  I’m sure they are fine.  I doubt something bad happened to them in this quiet little town.  Maybe they have already found each other and are now just looking for you.  We will find them.  Don’t worry.  Besides, I have a plan.”

        “You do!  Oh goody!  So what's the plan captain.”  She said, then saluted me.  I guess she was now in a better mood.  I don’t know if that will help, or just make it more difficult.

“Well I have a friend named Stewart, who has a car.  That will help us get around faster of course.”

“Oh cool!  Wait, what the fuck is a car?”  Pinkie said, trying out her newly learned word.

        “Hey what did I tell you about that?”

        “Fine grumpy pants.  I won’t use the word.”

        “Okay good.  Well first of all.  A car is a box like transportation device.  It has four wheels and uses what we call gas to power it.  They can go really fast.  Or very slow.  It all depends on how fast you want it to go.”

        “Wow!   That sounds neat.  Can I drive it?  Come on.  Can I?  Can I?  Can I!”

        “That is a complete and utter no.  You don’t know how.  And I don’t think I’m ready to die just now.  Besides.  Explaining this whole thing to Stewart isn’t going to be the easiest thing.”

        “If you say so Captain.”  She said saluting again.  “I hope we can find them fast though.  Oh hey!  Look.  Is that a car pulling up outside?”  She asked with her normal bubbly voice.

        “What?”  I asked confused.  Who the fuck would be in the driveway?

        “Oh shit”  I said out loud.  Our truck pulled in right behind the car.  Fuck they are both here.  How the fuck am I going to hide her now.

        “Shit?”  She asked confused of course by the new obscenity.  “Can I say that one?  It sounds pretty weird though.  Not as cool as fuck.”

“Damn it.  Not now.  Um, quick!  Go downstairs.  Turn left as soon as you exit the stairs, then make another quick left.  Hide in the bathroom that you see!”

“Okie Dokie Lokie!”  And with that she was off.  Thank God she is quick.

Just then I heard the front door open with a loud shriek from years of never being oiled.  I

could hear their footsteps coming in the door.  Well.  Here goes nothing I thought to myself.
