Equestria: land of the ponies. Unicorns, pegasi, earth ponies and even alicorns all living together in harmony. Each pony, as of all living things, has their own unique personality. Having a specific personality grants each pony a special talent, labeled on their flank, a symbol known to them as a cutie mark. All of this leads us to a small town in Equestria known as Ponyville, and to an earth pony named Pinkamena Diane Pie, or as she's better known, Pinkie Pie. Pinkie seemed to be like most earth ponies but she was how most would describe as a little, or make that very, odd. Pinkie was a pink pony, who would have guessed, with a poofy pink mane and tail. Pinkie's cutie mark was of three balloons, two blue, one yellow, which represented her special talent, throwing parties. While pinkie was known for throwing the best parties in Equestria, she is more commonly known for her strange behavior and an uncanny ability to make others smile. Pinkie has been noted to poses the strangest abilities at the strangest times, one, Rainbow Dash, has remarked that "while I was flying away from Pinkie she seemed to be catching up with me, which is insane seeing as though I’m the fastest flyer in Equestria..." Another, Twilight Sparkle, has said that "Pinkie's 'Pinkie Sense' seems to be able to predict the future." Others have made accounts of strange phenomena involving the pink pony, spontaneously having more than four legs, launching into the air and exploding, as well as several accounts of what those in the physics department call "Breaking the 'Forth Wall' " But this is a documentation of one of her strongest abilities, causing anyone she wishes to smile. Even those who thought they would never smile again had begun to smile in Pinkie's presence. As this tale precedes the pony known as Pinkie Pie will grow in a way unexpected to those who know her, using this strange power of hers. Before proceeding with reading this story, I would like to inform the reader that this will not have a happy ending, and it is not for the faint of heart or for anyone who knows this pony and would not like to see things go south for her poor soul.
