Cherry Ink, an OC shipping original

Pinkie Pie, a bubbly pink mare, was happily skipping from the Marketplace, her raincoat on since earlier, the Cloudsdale weather team had made it shower hard for the crops to grow. As she skipped, she heard crying from an alleyway, and stopped, her hooves glued in place.

'Is that...crying, I hear?' She looked into the alleyway, and she made an angry face. Crying was a huge no no for her, since her element was laughter. So, she marched inside and heard it come from the dumpster. She popped the lid open and looked. Then, her angry face melted away.

Inside was a cardboard box. Within the box, a 3 month old foal, beaten and bruised and starving. Her ribs jutted from underneath her skin from malnutrition. She had a coat of fur that had a soothing shade of pink to it, with splotches of lighter pink in it. Her mane and tail was red as a cherry with a strawberry colored streak in it. The mane and tail had curls in them that bounced and jiggled as the filly squirmed and cried. The foal's eyes really caught Pinkie's attention, because they shone with life and beauty in them, with their cotton candy colored Irises.

Pinkie thought to herself, "I can't just leave her here! She'll die! She's only 3 months old!' So, she took the foal from the box and sang a lullaby

The foal was asleep, thankfully. Pinkie then wrapped the foal in her now dry raincoat and galloped straight to Sugar-cube Corner. From there, she got up the stairs and put the foal in a shower. She then brought out some baby food and fed the foal, who was now clean.

After all this, Pinkie put a hoof to her muzzle, deep in thought. Finally, a lightbulb came from the cabinet and flickered on. She giggled, a cute snort escaping her and she said, "I'll name this cute little filly...Cherry Berry."
