Chapter 1: The Bakery and The penthouse

I was babysitting for the local bakers in New Crystal. Their names are Rosie and Austin, but I call them Pumpkin and Pound cake.

They live in the smaller part of town, called "Little Star". The Bigger part of town is called, "The Big Chrystal", that's where I live now.

Well, I used to live in Equestrian County, which was a small village with a lot of little kids to entertain. I was the resident party planner and baker. So I used an old recipe I had got from one of my old friend's books to make Pumpkin and Pound Cake some Smiley-faced cupcakes. Well, They loved it so much and Mrs. and Mr. Cake thought they were good too so they Hired me as a baker. Which reminded me of how my friends loved my baked treats I made them.

Ten weeks later

After finishing an order for a wedding I plopped down on the couch in the bakery and sighed. "When is Cheese Sandwich going to get here?"

"Anything wrong sweetie?" Mrs. Cake asked.

"No Mrs. Cake, I just have some problems." I responded.

Mrs. Cake sat by me. "What kind of problems, honey?"

"My past..." I said in a sad tone.

"Well... What happened in your past?" Mrs. Cake said and put her arm around me.

My hair became flat. "Well... A long time ago my friends started avoiding me after one of my parties ended in a kid getting killed. Well, they stoped texting me, they stopped talking to me, well this led me to do things like, cut my self, starve myself, burn myself, and hide from everyone. It only got worse, my family saw my brusies and sent me to numerous doctors, I didn't like it, I hated it. All of the doctors treated me like a science experiment, poking me, proding me, following my every move. They never let me leave my home after school or on weekends, they thought I was psyco. Well I ran away until I reached here." I started crying.

"Honey, don't cry it's not your fault." Mrs. Cake said.

"Yes it is, I didn't check the weather and the wind blew the bouncy house away well the kid in it was dead." I cried.

Mrs. Cake gave me a big hug and gave me a tissue. "Listen Pinkie, look at the bright side, we're going to a wedding next week and your boyfriend is the party planner and you can invite your friend Trent as a Plus one."

"Yeah, your right." I said then hugged Mrs. Cake.

Somone walked in the store and called my name.

My hair poofed up, "Cheese!!!!" I yelled then ran up to him. I gave him a big hug.

"Hi there Pinkie." He said.

"Guess what!" I yelled.

"What?" Cheese said.

"I'm going to a wedding!" I yelled.

"I know and I can't wait! Who's gonna be the plus one?" Cheese asked.

"Scince your the one who is planning the wedding and you're already going, I thought I could invite Trent." I said.

"That's nice. Oh and you know the people getting married are Princess Alexis Mi Amore Cadenza and a royal guard." He said.

"I know!!! I love Princess Alexis!!!! She's so pretty!!!"  I yelled.

"Not as pretty as you, Pinkamena." He said then kissed me.

"Eww!" Austin yelled.

I walked up to him and said, "Pound Cake, when you become older you will be chasing girls, and please don't make your parents grandparents until you're maried."

"Okay, Pinkie." He said.

"Well we gotta go." I said.

"Bye." Me and Cheese said then walked out the door.

I followed Cheese to his car. He opened the door for me and I got in the car. I buckled my seat belt and asked, "So, how was your day?"

He started driving down the road, "It was exausting!" He said. "I really wanted to impress them so I ordered Rarity Diamond to design her dress."

"The Rarity Diamond?!" I yelled.

"Yes." He said.

I knew who she was, she was my old friend Roslyn back in Equestrian. She changed her name to Rarity Diamond. "Wow." I said. "I'm impressed."

"Also she is designing your gown too." He said.

"REALLY!!!!" I yelled.

"Yes." He said.

When He stopped the car at a red light I gave him a big hug, "THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I LOVE YOU!!!! I LOVE YOU!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!" I yelled.

"I knew you'd love it." He said.

I sat back down and said. "I'm so thankful I have you."

"You too." He said.

I looked out the window with a smile the rest of the way home.

When we got there we were greeted by Trent. He looked as lonely as always, his dad was rich, and he was a fashionista. He was like a brother to me and Cheese. He had made sushi for me and Cheese, our favorite food.

"Thanks." I said.

"Your welcome." He said in a sad tone.

I looked up at him and said, "I know you'll find someone and I know that it might not be soon, But you have us."

"Thanks, but I want to finish helping you in school before I do anything else of the sort, you have your final exam to pass the twelfth grade, I know it wont be easy, and I know it won't be fun,  but, Me and Cheese are here for you." Trent said. "I'll Talk to Mrs. Pommel this morning, okay?"

"Okay." I said.

"Now you need some sleep so you should take your sushi to your room and after you finish go to sleep." Trent said.

"But I'm not tired." I said.

"Come on Pinkie!" Trent complained.

"BYE FELICIA!!!" I yelled then walked to my room.

Chapter 2: Everyone hates mondays

"Wake up Pinkie!!!!" Trent yelled.

"WHOLLY CRAP!!!" I yelled then kicked him. "YOU SCARED ME!!!!!"

"Dang Pinkie, you kick hard." Trent said while falling to the ground.

"Sorry, Trent..." I said.

"I'm gonna need a nurse." He said.

I picked up my phone and dialed the hospital.

"Chrystal City Hospital How may I help you?" Nurse Anna Redheart asked.

"Oh Hi Anna." I said.

"Did Trent jump-scare you again?" She asked.

"Yep!" I said.

"This happens every Monday..." She said. "Don't worry, I'll pick him up."

"Thanks. Oh, how are the twins doing?" I asked.

"Oh, Their doing fine." She said. "Thanks for asking."

"Your Welcome! Bye." I said.

"Bye, Sweetie!" She said kindly.

I hung up the phone, "Come on Trent," I said then helped him up.

"I hate Mondays..." Trent complained as I took him to the living room.

"I do to." I said.

"With Cheese gone, who's going to take you to school?" Trent asked.

"Hmm... I have three friends at my school with a car..." I said. Octavia Melody? No she's already at school probably, Lyra Heartstrings? No She lives too far from here, Lexi Vinyl Scratch? YES!!!!! "I'll call my friend Lexi?!"

I dialed her number on my phone, "Hey Vinyl," I said.

"Sup Pinkie?" Vinyl asked.

"Can you take me to school?" I asked.

"Oh, is Cheese working again?" She asked.

"Yes." I answered.

"Did you kick Trent again?" She questioned.

"Yes." I answered.

"Well, I'll take you to school, Pinkie. Just meet me in the car garage of the apartment building at 6:51." She confirmed.

"Okay." I said. "See you there." I hung up the phone, then ran to my closet. I dug through my closet for my uniform and grabbed my Button-up white long sleeved shirt, my blue sleeveless sweater, my pink tie, and a black skirt then ran to my bathroom. I changed quickly then spayed some perfume and brushed my teeth. I put my hair in two ponytails and walked to the kitchen to make Trent some food.

I got out some bread and put it in the toaster. I got out the instant oatmeal and poured it into a bowl. I filled the bowl up with water and put it in the microwave. The toast was done and I put it on a plate and spread honey on it. I got out the orange juice and made a glass of it. The oatmeal was done so I took it out of the microwave and put honey and cinnamon in it. "Trent, Come get breakfast!" I yelled.

Trent limped into the kitchen, "What is it?" He asked.

"Honey toast, Cinnamon and honey oatmeal, and orange juice." I answered.

"YAY!" He yelled then sat down. He ate all of it in one minute flat. "Thanks."

My eyes widened, "Your welcome, I made it because I felt bad."

"What about you? You need food too." Trent said.

"Vinyl buys us breakfast burritos." I said.

"Cool." He said.

"Well I gotta get to school." I said. "Bye." I grabbed my bag then walked out.

I met up with Vinyl at the right time. "Hey Pinkie!" She greeted.

"Hi Vinyl, How's it going?" I asked.

"I'm fine, you?" Vinyl replied.

"I'm awesome, I can't wait until the wedding!" I exclaimed.

"Oh, I'm the DJ there." She said.

"Awesome!!!!" I said excitedly, and got in the car.

Vinyl started the car and cranked up the music. "BOOM CLAP THE SOUND OF MY HEART." Vinyl changed the station to BOOM 807.5, which was my favorite station and started driving. The school wasn't to far from my place, only a couple of blocks away.

"Oh, I got donuts." She said.

"Awesome. " I said.

She handed me one and I ate it up. "Thanks!" I yelled.

"Your welcome." She said. "We have a huge P.E. Test today."

"Ugh. Really?" I said.

"Yup." She answered, "I bet Jorden "Thunder" Lane will ace it."

"Yup, He's a scholar athlete, the captain of every team, and the fastest runner." I said.

"Maybe, You, Me, and Tavi can kick his butt in the P.E. exam, and show him we are good athletes too." Vinyl said.

"Great idea!" I agreed. "So who is all in our group for the exam?"

She handed me the list. It said:

"Ugh. So we're stuck with Jorden, Caroline, And Madison." I complained.

"Not only that, There is more." She said.

I also read:

I gasped. "No no no no no!" I yelled.

"Calm down Pinkamena." Vinyl said. "Plus, we're here." She opened the door and got out.

I got out of the car trying to hide my tears.

"You okay, Pinkie?" Vinyl asked.

"Oh, I-I'm fine." I said. "Don't worry about me." I smiled a fake smile.

"You sure? Your hair is flat." She said.

"Don't worry." I said. "I'm fine, Lets go see Tavi."

We walked to the cafeteria, Octavia was waiting at our table with her cello and book bag. Her black sweater was buttoned up and she had her black hair braided. We walked up to her. "Hello Pinkie, Hello Vinyl." She Greeted

"Hiya!" Vinyl said.

"Hi..." I whispered.

"What's wrong?" Tavi asked.

I handed her the paper and said, "This..."

She read it and her eyes widened, "Your fighting Jorden?" Octavia worried.

"Yes." I whispered.

"Well, Well, Well, Is it 'The three nerds'" A voice from behind us said, It was Jorden. Everyone fell silent. "Pinkamena, Lexi, And Octavia... A.K.A Pinkie, Tavi, and Vinyl. Pinkamena Diane Pie, The one who hangs out at the bakery because she is lonely."

Caroline walked up, she twirled her white and blue hair and stared straight at me. I backed up, "I-I don't want any trouble Caroline..." I whispered.

Caroline giggled, "I don't care." She walked up closer to me.

"WOAH BACK OFF!!!" Vinyl yelled then held her back.

"Did you just touch me?" Caroline asked. "She just touched me..."

"Hand's off of my girlfriend idiot." Jorden said then pushed Vinyl down.

Everyone gasped. "You did not just push her!" Tavi yelled. I helped Vinyl up. "She's not an idiot."

"She gets C's in every class." Jorden said.

"She's not an idiot..." I whispered.

"Looks like Pinkamena is to weak to talk." Jorden said.

"Okay everyone!" Principle Blueblood exclaimed. "Sit down." We all sat down. "As we all know this is the final week of school, and we have some exams. So without further ado the P.E exam participants today: Jorden Lane, Caroline Cloudkicker, Madison Flitter, Lyra  Heartstrings, Selina Drops, Rose Luck, Pinkamena Pie,  Lexi Scratch, and Octavia Melody. The students I called go to the locker rooms to get changed."

Vinyl, Tavi, and I made our way to the locker room. I changed into a pink tank top and some black short shorts, Vinyl wore a white tank top and some navy blue basketball shorts, and Tavi wore a grey T-shirt and some grey shorts. We went into the gym and sat on the bleachers, the others did the same.

Coach Spitfire walked up, "Okay ladies!" She yelled, "Today is your exam the first thing you need to do is pair up into teams of three,"

"Tavi, Vinyl, lets team up." I said.

"The first exam is basketball, You guys are going to try to make a basket in the other teams goal, The first two teams are playing are, Team Pinkamena and Team Jorden."  We all walked up to the court. Me, Vinyl, and Tavi were on the other side of Jorden, Caroline, and Madison.   "Three, two, one. GO!"

Jorden got his hands on the ball and I chased after him, he was halfway to the goal when I knocked him down and dribbled the ball to the other side while avoiding Caroline and Madison and made a basket. I laughed, "That was easy."

"Next team up is Team Lyra!" Coach Spitfire yelled.

"Coach S! That was unfair!!! Did you see what she did?" Jorden Complained.

"Yeah, It's called life." She said.

"Now is the kick boxing tournament, the first people I'd like to see on the mat are, Pinkamena and Caroline." Spitfire said. We walked to the mat, "The goal here is to Knock them onto the floor."

"Your going down." Caroline whispered.

"Three, Two, One, GO!" Spitfire yelled.

Caroline tried to kick me in the face and missed, I punched her in the stomach sending her back a few feet. She was enraged,  She ran after me but, I punched her in the face to stop her. She kicked my shoulder. Before I knew it I was kicked to the ground. "And the winner is, Caroline." Spitfire yelled.

"Next up is Lexi and Madison." Spitfire said. I didn't worry much. I knew Madison was the least the scholar athletes had to offer.

"Get ready to die." Caroline whispered.

"Ready, Set, GO!" Spitfire yelled. Vinyl kicked Madison in the leg, then Madison grabbed Vinyl and repeatedly punched her in the face.

"I GIVE UP!!!! I GIVE UP!!!!" Vinyl yelled.

."STOP!" Spitfire yelled. "Stop the match!" Vinyl ran off of the mat then hugged me and Tavi. The next round was Madison

Vs. Caroline and I didn't pay any attention but Caroline won.

Next was me vs. Jorden, my stomach was churning. "Okay, Pinkamena and Thunder get up there."

"Your life is done." He whispered.

"Ready set go!" Spitfire yelled.  Jorden punched me in the shoulder and I kicked him in the stomach which propelled him back 5 feet.  He charged at me and punched me in the throat, I couldn't breathe I fell back gasping for air. The last things I heard were Vinyl and Tavi's voice and Jorden's laugh.

I woke up with a breathing machine on my mouth, I took it off.  "How long was I out?" I asked.

"A couple of hours." Nurse Redheart said.

"Where am I?" I asked.

"The nurses office." She said. "Girls she's here!"

Vinyl and Tavi ran in wearing their uniforms, "You okay?' Tavi asked.

"Need anything?" Vinyl asked.

"I'm fine and Vinyl, can you get me some apple juice and a burger with fries?" I asked.

"Sure thing, Be right back." She replied.
