In the Mind of Pinkie Pie
Chapter 5
Previous ChapterNext ChapterA glowing yellow light shined in the dark forest. Pinkie Pie looked up and saw that it was the path. She turned her and saw the other direction wasn't glowing. It was as if this whole world wanted her to follow it. Pinkie Pie got up, completely mystified by the glowing path. She followed. She followed it through the forest and also in and out of a dark cave, but she hardly noticed the cave for she was so overtaken by this path.
Everything around her was beginning to fade, including the path. She snapped out of the trance and began to panic.
"What's going on?" She said aloud. She tried to run back the way she came but that didn't help. Everything faded away into nothingness. All around her was a bright white background that seemed to go off into infinity. "No, no, no." Pinkie Pie cried. Tears flowed down her face. "I just want to go home. I want my friends."
"SURPRISE!" Said a chorus of voices, similar to that at the park. Pinkie screamed in terror and turned to see Twilight, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash. They were all normal. They all wore party hats that matched their cutie marks, all except Rainbow Dash. This seemed so familiar. Just then the white background turned into the inside of Applejack's barn. The beams were all dressed in banners and streamers, balloons were placed in groups randomly, and cake was placed on a table off to the side of the barn.
"I really thought she'd be more excited" said Fluttershy. Pinkie Pie began to remember this event. It was her birthday party a year ago. She turned around and saw herself with straighten pink hair looking mad. Next to her was Rainbow Dash who was panting with exhaustion after having to force Pinkie Pie to go to the barn for her surprise party. On the other side of Pinkie Pie was Gummy.
Pinkie Pie's, the real one, eyes began to tear up.
"Excited?" The angry Pinkie Pie said in anger and frustration. "Excited? Why would I be excited to attend my own farewell party?"
Pinkie Pie couldn't believe how much of a jerk she had been to her friends after they went through that trouble to throw a surprise birthday party for her. She couldn't believe she thought they were going to kick her out of the group. She laughed slightly at the idea of them doing such a thing.
She continued to watch the scene. After her past self was done yelling at her friends they began the party. Past Pinkie Pie's hair was back to it's naturally poofy self and she and all her friends began dancing and playing. This was one of the most happiest days of Pinkie Pie's life. Oh how she missed them so much. Soon it all faded, but it didn't fade back into nothing it faded into another scene.
She was now on a hill top. It was night time and everypony, not just her friends, were around. It was the night she and everypony watched the meteor shower. In the night sky hundreds of shooting stars shot by and all the ponies oohed and awed at the spectacular show sky put on for them. This scene didn't last long and faded into yet another event.
These switches of event of her and her friends went on for quite some time. There were quite a lot of them and every single one of them made Pinkie Pie's heart ache with sadness and happiness.
After many joyful reenactments of special moments she had with her friends the scenes started going back much further. In fact they were of her childhood at the rock farm just outside of Ponyville. She re-saw the sonic rainboom burst in the middle of the sky. She watched filly self smile fore the first time. She re-watched the first party she ever threw, and she even saw herself get her cutie mark.
The scene faded once again, just like the many other times, but this next event wasn't a memory. Pinkie Pie saw all her best friends gathered around her, including spike and Gummy. This vision was different because she wasn't in it personally. It was like she was looking at some kind of moving picture.
Her friends all had smiles on their face, except Gummy of course. These smiles had both happiness and sadness. Mostly happiness.
"Hey Pinkie Pie." Twilight Sparkle said.
"Hello everypony." Pinkie said with joy and heart brokenness.
"Hey Twilight," Rainbow Dash spoke. "I heard that even though somepony's asleep that they can sometimes hear you. Or at least dream about what they hear."
"I highly doubt it." Twilight said.
"Well, just in case. Get better soon Pinkie Pie, we can't wait to see you when you wake up."
"Get well soon." Applejack spoke. The rest of the group all said get better soon in all sorts of ways and then the vision ended and she was back in the woods. The woods were the same as before but for some reason they were less scary. Her mind was focused of those scenes. Those visions. Those memories.
