Chapters Today was Inky's and Pinkie's last day of school, the last day of the rock farm, the last day they would see each other. When this day would end, Inky would move away, far, far, far, away. She was planning to move to Las Pegasus, away from the rock farm, and her 3 sisters, Maud, Blinkie, and Pinkie. She was going to become famous and show her family that she does not belong on a rock farm. Tomorrow will be the day she will finally leave! But there is one thing she will miss. Her dear sister, Pinkie. Pinkie made Inky happy, in fact very happy. But Inky did not return this. All Inky thought of when she was sitting in her desk was darkness, gray, and sadness. That's all Inky ever thought of. Inky thought about this more and more as the day went on, and on, and on. Then, Inky had an idea to get these thoughts out of her head. She would think happy. For Pinkie, for the darkest depths of her mind, for the saddest family she ever had. Inky would throw Pinkie a-last-time-seeing-you-ever party. When Inky got home, she went into the mill to get tables, chairs, cups, and plates ready. Then she went to a nearby store and got streamers, banners, balloons, and paint. After getting everything prepared, she went inside to bake a cake and get some punch.
"Hey Inky! What are you doing getting all of this stuff?" asked Pinkie
"Oh... uh.... a.... school project! Yeah... a school project...." said Inky
"Did we really have a school project? We're in the same class you know." said Pinkie
"Uh no we didn't! I actually need.... to... uh... go... get the rocks now! Mhm I'm going to get some rocks now... OK?" said Inky now going out the door.
"Well bye!" said Pinkie
Inky sighed and went back to the mill with the cake and the punch balancing on her back. When she got into the mill she set the cake on a plate and the punch bowl next to it. Now she needed to get the banner done. She got the banner and sat down on a chair.
HAPPY LAST-TIME-SEEING-YOU-EVER PINKIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Inky thought it was perfect. Now it was just time to wait.
Inky was waiting for Pinkie to come. Waiting. Waiting. Waiting. The waiting stopped when the mill door creaked open. Inky was just about to say "Happy last-time-seeing-you-ever Pinkie!" But she didn't. It was just the wind opening the door. Inky finally had enough. She opened the door and left the mill, went inside her house and called: "PINKIE!!! YOU'RE NEEDED AT THE MILL RIGHT NOW!!!!" Pinkie came instantly.
"Yes Inky?" asked Pinkie
"Wait here and come when I call you OK?" said Inky
"OK!" said Pinkie hopping
Inky went back into the mill and closed the door. Then she said that Pinkie could come in now. And Pinkie opened the door....
"HAPPY LAST-TIME-SEEING-YOU-EVER PINKIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled Inky as loud as she could.
Pinkie opened her mouth but nothing came out. Not even a little squeak. Pinkie looked confused.
"Last.....time....seeing.......you......ever.....?" questioned Pinkie
Inky then frowned. Did Pinkie not like Inky's party?
"Do... do you not like it?" asked Inky
Pinkie then gasped.
"I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THERE'S CAKE AND MUSIC AND PUNCH AND TABLES AND STREAMERS AND EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" screamed Pinkie.
Inky smiled big and started to dance along with Pinkie. After awhile, Inky lost her smile because she saw Pinkie looking at the banner. Pinkie had a questioning face.
"What does this banner mean, Inky?" asked Pinkie.
"Well...." said Inky
"It's because after today I'm leaving. Leaving the rock farm because were both out of school now and we can do whatever we want. So I decided to leave to Las Pegasus. It is the last time I will ever see you. And I really really like you Pinkie. But the time has to come and I have to leave." said Inky, with a tear going down her face. "That's why I wanted to throw a party, to be like you, to remember you, Pinkie. I hope you do some party things and have fun wherever you are going." said Inky, grabbing her things to leave.
"Inky," said Pinkie
"Yeah?" said Inky
"Thank you. For everything. You were really super-duper fun to be with. You attended all of my parties. You were there for me. You made me smile." said Pinkie, with a smile on her face.
Inky looked at her smiling sister. Now Inky felt happy even though this was the last time seeing her. Forever. Maybe one day Inky will see Pinkie Pie again.
Inky had just got to a nearby town, going to the Friendship Express. Who came up with these gay train names? Inky set down her luggage and sat on a seat. There were very few other ponies in the compartment, but they were getting ready to sleep. Inky promised herself to not to sleep because she made sure no one would take her things. The train started to move. Faster and faster until everything was a blur. Inky became tired after some time but kept awake. To keep herself busy, she looked through her scrap-book. There was a picture of Dad, Mom, Maud, Blinky, Pinkie, and herself. We were all smiling big because that was our first party we ever went to. She flipped through some more pages and found more pictures of her family. Then she closed the book and fell asleep.
Inky woke up the next morning in Las Pegasus, the place she had been dreaming to go to. She got off of the Friendship Express and went to the hotel called Las Pegasus Resorts.
"Excuse me sir can I get a room please?" said Inky
The pony at the desk held out his hoof, as if he were waiting for something.
"....Um is there something you want sir?" asked Inky
"Bits ma'am." said the pony at the desk
Inky sighed. She had some spare bits, but not many. She handed the pony 2 bits and waited. He looked at the bits, and pointed at the sign.
3 BITS PER PERSON
"Oh..." said Inky
"Oh is right ma'am now pay up!" said the pony angrily
Inky put another bit onto the counter and the pony gave her a room key that said 79. Inky trudged upstairs and went into her room. It was a decent sized room compared to the ones nearby the rock farm. Inky set down her luggage and sat on her bed. Then, a letter slipped under the door.
"Who knows my address when I just got here?" asked Inky
Inky picked up the letter and it said on the front: Inky Pie, Room 79, Las Pegasus Resorts, Las Pegasus. Inky was thinking, "Do I have a stalker?" The letter was from Twilight Sparkle. Inky wondered who this was, but opened the letter anyway.
Dear, Inky
You're probably wondering who I am, but first things first. I am Twilight Sparkle, a friend of Pinkie Pie. I invite you to come to the Summer Sun Celebration next summer in Ponyville. Pinkie, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity, and I will all be attending. I know you are an Earth Pony, but if you know any pegasi that are great fliers, I wish for you to bring them, for we do not have a pegasi to clear the weather that day. I hope you have a nice evening.
Sincerely,
Twilight Sparkle
Inky read this letter over and over again until she finally understood. Pinkie found some friends. She was invited to come to Ponyville next summer. She was going to have to explain why she decided to go to Las Pegasus instead of Ponyville. But maybe... Just maybe she won't...
