Unseeing Eyesby SUBJECTXVIChaptersA Day Through Her EyesSpontanious Pony Combustion... In A Can?A Sad Drummer IndeedMuffincraftTears of an AngelHollow VictoriesSmall BeginningsA Day Through Her Eyes'Hmm... Cake... No... Cupcakes... No... A muffin? Now why is there a muffin in my room?!' I thought waking up to the smell of Muffins. Yawning loudly the sound wave bounced around my room. Revealing nothing out of place... Hmm... Nothing... Well nothing except the muffin on my pillow... Why was there a muffin on my pillow? Hmm... Better ask.' "Hello Mr. Muffin! What are You doing on my Pillow?" I inquired tilting my head slightly and poking the Muffin with a Hoof. "Hello Pinkie! Do you want to eat me?" The Muffin Replied.... 'Okay... Talking muffin... Awesome! It must be another magical gift from Dumblesnore? Dumblepour? Dumbles! But why would he send me a suicidal muffin? And why does it know my name? Hmm... Let's find out!' "No thanks Mr. Muffin but I wo-" I started but was promptly cut off by the apparently sentient muffin. "But I wanna die!" It shouted in loudly. "Shh! Everypony else is still sleeping! It's like what?" I asked taking a deep breath through my snout and tasted the air with my tongue playing it off as a yawn all the while opening all of my senses. 'Hmm... High amounts of dew in the air, Still heavy activity... hmm... judging by the subtly flight patterns... it's the Night weather team... putting the time around... Three O'clock at night!' "Three at night!" I whisper/shouted making a play at squinting at the clock on the other side of the room. "I wanna die!" The suicidal muffin shouted again. Thankfully much quieter this time. 'Hmmm... So okay I have a suicidal muffin of yet know origin on my pillow, Twilight is more the definitely asleep... unless she's pulling an all nighter again... Definitely not something a newly crowned princess should be doing... where was I again? Oh yes! And I don't need to start baking for another three hours! Welp... only one thing to do with a situation like this! ***************** 'There! Now I can get back to sleep and have some peace of mind that this particularly unusual muffin won't harm any would be eater incase it's dangerous! TESTS MUST BE MADE!!!! BWUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Ahem (Maniacal Laugh? Check!)! Now back to Candy Land!' I thought with a grin. Carefully ignoring the sound of a rather disgruntled suicidal muffin yelling and beating at his new glass-box home with his tiny muffin arms. Nope No such thing like that happening in this room! Time Skip! 9 Hours In The Future! "I've finished all my orders for today Mr. Cake! I'm going to take off okay!?" I shouted to my "Employers" (though I could honestly easily buy their bakery with all the capital I get from all the my orders and the royalties for my gag/party products) while heading towards the door. "Do you need anything else before I take off?" I asked Pausing in front of the door. "No Pinkie Mr. Cake and I have everything handled!" Mrs. Cake said happily while Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake Float/Fly around her head doing an aerial form of flight tag. "Go ahead and take off! Oh and make sure to remind Twilight to eat! I know Spike does but a little extra encouragement never hurt!" Giggling slightly I bounced out of the bakery and proceeded to avoid getting run down but the CMC who were once again on one of their oh so infamous quests. "Okay... Where should I go first?" I asked myself bouncing down the street using each sonic pulse revealing everything within a Ten foot radius. "Hmm... Well I should probably visit Twilight first." I said with a slight grimace. I did not like that crystal castle/tree. Sound bounced around in it weird making everything look shaky. 'Oh well shaky sights here I come!' I though with a sigh before diving through an open window and emerging from a flower pot across the street from Twilight's Castle. 'I still don't understand how that works...' I thought carefully ignoring the slightly buzzing sign above it More Science Required 'Yep totally going to ignore that!' "Welp! Here I go!" I said and stepped through Twilight's door. Time Skip! 15 Minutes Later 'Why is this castle soooo big?' I wondered walking around the confusingly large castle. Considering it's lack of size on the outside the massiveness on the inside was rather disconcert. 'This place hasn't even been magicked by Dumbles! Why is it soooo big?! I thought with a sigh. "I wonder what Dumbles is up to right now?" Across The Dimensional Divide! In A Bigger On The Inside Office "ACHOO!!!!!!!!!!" "Are you okay Sir?" Hairy Potter asked the Head Master of Hogwarts slightly concerned for the old geezer. He'd been sneezing a lot as of late. "Herm? No, no I'm fine! Just a rather unusual Equine is probably thinking about me again." The Old Man stated with a shake of his head. "Um okay?" 'Dumbledore is definitely going Senile.' Harry thought before paying attention to the Head Master as he gave a summery of what had happened after he'd past out from fighting Voldemort. Back To Equestria! "Why do I suddenly feel like I have whiplash?" I asked myself shaking my head back and forth. "Aha! Finally!" I shouted and jumped through a painting and appeared next to Twilight in her Library. Still carefully ignoring the weird floating signs. "Hi Twilight! Mrs. Cake wanted me to remind you to eat! Here! Have a pie!" I shouted before diving through Twilight's shadow and appearing outside the front door of the castle! 'Finally! I'm out of that infernal place!' I thought with a sigh of relief. "Seeing" everything like I'd expect somepony would through water would was very irritating. "Hmm... Now what?" Author's Note Hello Everypony! SUBJECT-XVI here with a brand new story that is sure (Hopefully) to knock your socks off! This is Mine and One of My dear friends brain child (Edited By one Amanda Green) and we both put in a lot of work equally So hopefully you like it! Anyway I would GREATLY appreciate it if you leave a review on your way out! They really super help me figure out what works for you lot! If you want improved chapters then speak up! Anywho! TTFN! See all ya'lls in the next chapter! P.s. A Big Thank You to Wolfie 03 for all the help as well! Spontanious Pony Combustion... In A Can?Author's Note Alright! Already! A new chapter tonight! Going to dally on this one's introduction a bit! The reason is that I've started a little... game for this story. In each chapter (yes there's one in chapter one as well) I'll be leaving (or have already left) an obscure reference if you can find this obscure reference I will give the first two people to find it and tell me it (and what it's from) access to my newest incomplete chapter. Meaning If Someone spots a reference not discovered in chapter 1 when chapter 6 is already out that means that person will have access to chapter 7. Understand? The Access will continue until the chapter is completed there after the passport will be changed so you can't continue looking in when you haven't won the privilege. Sound exciting? I think so! Now get in there and find those references!!!!!!! P.S. Please leave a review at the end of the chapter... I'm begging you guys. Please. Please do. Spontanious Pony Combustion... In A Can? "Hmm... What to do! What to do?" I wondered to myself aimlessly bouncing down the street. "Pinkie Pie!" A familiar light grey Pegasus with a bright yellow mane shouted dropping out of the sky before landing Like A Boss! "Oh hello Derpy!" I said pausing in mid-air. "Is that a new perfume you're wearing?" I asked (still floating) alluding to the fact that she smelled like a giant muffin. "Yep!" Derpy replied with a smile before digging through her delivery bag and removing a package and handing it to me... Or she at least tried... "Erm... Pinkie? Are you floating?" "Yepperonies!" I shouted back doing a flip in mid air to emphasize my point. "Um... Do you think you could come down?" Derpy asked adorably tilting her head slightly. "Okie Dokie!" I replied using my MNS (Master Ninja Skills) to pop out of Derpy's shadow, before taking the package out of her hooves. "Yay! I got a package! I wonder what's in it?" I wondered waving be to Derpy as she flew away. "Hmm... Maybe another Prototype from the eggheads down at P.I.E. (Pinkie Intertainment (Yes INTER-tainment Not ENTER-tainment) Enterprises?)" I mumbled to myself as I started walking away. 'Hmm... Weighs approximately two pounds... The box is about a foot across and six inches wide... And is tightly wrapped both outside and in...' I thought while wondering out of town towards White Tail forest giving the box a slight shake. 'Meh this looks like a good spot to open this!' I thought stopping in the middle of a clearing. Sitting down I closed my eyes (which wasn't exactly necessary but I did it anyway) and opened up all my senses. Giving a piercing whistle I tracked the high pitched sonic pulse and found nothing in the immediate area though I could hear some birds and a few Pegasus' about a Two hundred yards away. Lowering my Senses again I proceeded to tear open the package. Grinning like a mad pony I held up a Small Cylinder with a pull away metal tab. "Glitter Bomb" I read running a hoof down the side of the canister. Grinning again I pulled the tab and threw it a little away. My "Pinkie Sense" activated a second later... "Oh Buck-" Was all I managed before the little unassuming canister explode with Pretty Pink rage. Whomph! BANG! Point of View Switched. 2 Minutes Earlier. "Ugh this is so boring!" Rainbow Dash moaned lying on a heavenly soft cloud bemoaning her horrible fate... Boredom. There was utterly nothing for her to do. She'd already finished all her duties with the weather team (She'd even finished all of her paper work!), done all of her practicing for all of the various sports that she competed in, and finished (again) the Latest Daring Do novel! "Why can't something exciting ever happen when I want it?" RD asked herself rolling onto her stomach and prepared to take off. "Hmm... Maybe I could go prank Rarity or Apple Jack?" she asked herself. Whomph! BANG! "Holy! What in Tartarus was that!" RD yelled as she was nearly blown out of the sky by a sudden blast of air. Turning around she spotted a large black Mushroom cloud on the other side of Ponyville. "Well ask and you shall receive!" Rainbow Dash muttered before flying as fast towards the foreboding cloud. 1 Minute Later "WHAT IN TARTARUS HAPPENED HERE!" Rainbow Dash yelled over the fire stopping one of the weather team who were rushing around desperately using any close by clouds to put out the blazing fire that had sprung up out of nowhere. "WE'VE GOT NO IDEA! EVERYTHING WAS CALM HERE A MINUTE AGO! ONE SECOND EVERYTHING'S NICE AND CLEAR AND THE NEXT WE'RE DEALING WITH THIS!" Yelled the Pegasus over the sound of the blaze before flying off to get a fresh cloud. "Sonofab-" Rainbow stopped about rush off to help but stopped a line of knocked down trees. "That looks bad." She whispered following the damage to the lake a hundred yards from Ground Zero of the fire. "Damn what could have caused this kind of damage?" Rainbow Dash wondered doing circles above the lake. "PINKIE!!!" Rainbow Dash shouted spotting a familiar Bright Pink bobbing in the waves. 'Maybe Pinkie saw what happened?' Rainbow thought swooping down towards the ball of energy. "PINKIE!" Rainbow shouted again this time in fear as she noticed the black burns that covered her body and the slowly spreading red that was seeping into the water. Not wasting a second Rainbow Dash scooped up her friend as gently as she could before zooming off towards the Hospital as fast as she could without hurting Pinkie Pie even more. A Sad Drummer IndeedAuthor's Note Yay! New Chapter! I'm on a role! XD Lol sorry ya'll for the last chapter being so short (less then a 1,000 words). I wanted to make it longer. But as is the case for most works of literature the story has taken on a life of it's own. So yeah that's my BS excuse. The frequency of that happening will be random I don't know. But if it happens it happens. If later chapters fit better as 1 whole 1 instead of 2 I'll combine them like what happened in this one! Anywho Let's get this show on the road! Please leave a review at the end! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!! A Sad Drummer Indeed "Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" chanted Rainbow Dash pacing back and forth in front of the hospital, her head flicking between the fire and the building which Pinkie now resided in. 'I should be over there helping!' Rainbow groused argumentatively to herself. Spreading her wings in preparation to take off. 'But you won't because Pinkie needs you to be here for her.' a small voice whispered back unhelpfully, causing Rainbow to lower her wings again. This had been the self repeating argument the poor cyan Pegasus had been having with herself over the past ten minutes. psyching herself up to help take out the rabidly growing fire, only for her will to fight the blaze to be shot down in flaming ball of death by a little voice in the back of her head. "Buck this! I'll come back and worry about Pinkie later!" Rainbow shouted taking off. 'But what if there isn't a Pinkie left to come back to by the time you're done?' The ever unhelpful voice asked. "Then I'll just have to fly down into Tartarus itself to get her back won't I?" Rainbow Dash demanded flying even faster as her worry for her favorite partner in crime set itself deeply within her heart. 2 Hours Later "Finally!" groaned Rainbow Dash as the last of the fire was put out. It had taken Eighteen water tornados and a lot of back up from Cloudsdale to finally put out the blaze. Right now all Rainbow Dash wanted to do was crawl into bed or the nearest cloud and pass out. She wouldn't though. She had to wait for Pinkie and make sure she was okay. Groaning again Rainbow Dash made her way into the hospital. "Uh hey? I'm looking for... Pinkie Pie's room..." Rainbow Dash finished lamely as the Nurse ran off the second she spotted the Cyan Pegasus. "Rainbow Dash!" Doctor Horse said overly joyous which sent off a bunch of Rainbow Dash's internal alarms. "How's my favorite frequent-patient?" "I'm fine DH. I brought in Pinkie earlier. She was pretty banged up can you tell what room she's in?" Rainbow Dash asked desperately ignore the cacophony of bells that was going off in her head as the doctor frowned and lead her down the halls towards the ICU. "Here she is..." Stated Doctor Horse peaking his head through the door for a second. "Before you go in." Doctor Horse stated warningly placing a Hoof on her shoulder. "I'm not going to lie to you Rainbow. Whatever happened to her caused A Lot of damage. And right now she's going to need her friends to stand by her." he said electing a nod from Rainbow Dash. "Go on inside, I've already sent for the rest of your friends. You'll have her alone for maybe ten minutes or so." "Okay thanks doc." 'Though I don't exactly know why you had to stop me to tell me that since I was the one to bring her in.' Rainbow Dash though shaking her head as she walked into the room. Point of View Switched. 5 Minutes Earlier. "Ugh... My head..." I moaned feeling like the day after I'd drank a years worth of Granny Smiths infamous Zap Apple Whisky™. 'Aw man! Even in my own head it's Trade Marked! How'd she do that?' I thought scrunching up my face in confusion earing myself a painful stabbing pain in my snout for my troubles. Letting out a high pitched yawn I followed the sonic pulse around the room. 'Something's not right.' I thought frowning slightly. Nothing looked right. It was as if I was underwater or in Twilight's castle again (Which I wasn't the distinct lack of the smell of books ensured that). Tapping into my magical core, I began to circulate magic throughout my body, flinching every now and then at the severity of some of my wounds. Finally reaching my ears I felt a could pit form within my stomach. My left ear drum was completely blown, and my right ear was pretty torn up as well. "That's not good." I whispered worriedly to myself. I depended on my echolocation entirely, and without it I highly doubted I'd be able to make it five feet let alone down the street or do any of the billions of things that I had to do on in my daily routine. Sighing in trepidation I took comfort that it would take me at least a week for my ear to heal and a month at most before Twilight would probably let me anywhere near my own door. So assuming that happened I had ample time to let my advanced healing take care of me. For now I'd have to rely on my "Pinkie Sense" (Which while great for tracking and avoiding, made for horrible navigation) to get me around. "Buck this is going to suck." I moaned ******* "Hi Rainbowdash!" I shouted happily a few minutes later, as I sensed her walk into my room using my PS (Pinkie Sense). "Sorry if I'm not looking at you! I'm having a bit of trouble moving my neck right now!" I sighed using my one good hoof to tap at the neck brace. I could hear Rainbowdash mumble something... Actually scratch that my ears where currently shot so she was probably talking at normal volume I just could hear her. "Um could you say that a little louder? I can't hear you I think a may have possibly blown my ear drums! That or my head is wrapped in cotton! But that'd just be silly-!" I said "Pinkie!" Shouted Rainbowdash interrupting my tirade. "I asked if you were okay?!" She asked/shouted "Oh me? I'm fine! Well... That putting things in perspective I guess... I do still have some wood shrapnel in my back, two broken hoofs, a third wrapped in enough enchanted cloth to serve as an anvil, a recently re-inflated lung, some cracked/broken ribs, and newly healed bursted intestines... So as a whole no I'm not fine but that's all been partially if not mostly fixed so I'm good!" I stated flippantly listing off my wounds forgetting how most pony's weren't me. "WHAT!!!!!!" Rainbowdash shouted temporarily deafening my currently half functioning ear. "Rainbow! A little lower please! I'd like to still be able to half hear with my right ear!" I half shouted while failingly trying to use my front left hoof (The one not wrapped in Enchanted cloth) to rub my ringing ear. "Anyway were are the other girls?" I asked blinking a few tears away. "How can you say all that like it's nothing?!" Shouted Rainbow ignoring my question but this time got her voice a lot lower. I just shrugged as much as the various bandaging's and casts allowed me. Rainbowdash just face hoofed at my answer. "Anywho! Where are the other girls?" I asked for the second time. "Fluttershy is busy taking care of all the displaced animals, I think I spotted Applejack along with the rest of her family clearing out some of the fallen trees, Rarity is Busy helping to patch up the anypony who got hurt, And Twilight is probably in her office blazing a path through all the paperwork that comes with replacing all of the trees destroyed in White Tail Forest." Rainbowdash listed off going over a mental list of where our friends probably were. "Okay? I get they're all busy but Why are they busy? What happened? What did I miss?" I asked teleporting all around the room in my haste to get answers. "Oh yeah your were knocked out right?" Rainbowdash asked rhetorically face palming. "Well something exploded in White Tail and set fire to a lot of the surrounding trees." Rainbowdash stated raising an eyebrow at my flinch. "Yeah I exploded." I stated depressingly my hair deflating with my mood. "Was anypony badly hurt?" "Not really. The most anypony got was a bump on the head from a falling branch." Rainbow stated gently putting a comforting hoof on my shoulder when my mood fell even lower. I let out a small sob, desperately wishing I could turn my head away from Rainbowdash as tears slid down my face. I didn't react as Rainbowdash pulled me into a hug. I just felt so horrible. Even though nopony was really hurt I still felt responsible for the damages and destruction. I just couldn't take it. Ever since finding my cutie-mark I'd made it my mission to make everyone I could happy. And this recent even just did the opposite of that. I'd broken my Pinkie Promise. We spent what felt like hours like that. With me crying my heart out and her just embracing me. I know I didn't deserve it, but at that moment I wished that time would stop and we could've stayed like that forever. Welp that's it! before I go I just would like to say I'm quiet happy with how this story is being received by the community! I'm actually getting likes and reviews! Yay me! Anywho! A big thank you to Wolfie 03 for all the help! Trust me guys without her this story would be a giant flaming fail! Also I big thanks to my lazy ass beta readers who are actually doing what they're being paid too, instead of just lumping all the work off on Amanda! So thank you SUBJECT-XVI (Fanfiction/InsanityInc), WitheredTroll94 (InsanityInc), Fooliest Cesar (InsanityInc), and last but not least Ermis Green (Amanda's Foster Sister/Girlfriend (YouTube) (Damn it Amanda! How the Buck am I supposed to label you two?)) Well bye bye ya'll until next time! MuffincraftAuthor's Note So. Much. Writing. My brain currently hates me... Oh well! SUCK IT UP BRAIN!!! Lol This chapter would have been posted yesterday but I thought it sounded better attached to the previous chapter so after a little re-writing I attached it onto chapter 3. That's right! this is technically chapter 5! If you'd already read chapter 3 before I posted this one I highly suggest you go back and read chapter 3 again! Also the chapter isn't really meant to be taken as seriously as the rest of the chapters I posted. It's mostly a filler that me and the rest of my betas thought would be fun to upload. Okay! Enough stalling! here's the new chapter! Muffincraft "Finally home!" I moaned joyously as Rainbowdash wheeled me through my window into my room. After two long tear stained week at the hospital I had finally been released! "Is here okay?" Rainbowdash asked stationing me next to my bed. "Yepperionies!" I replied happily smiling brightly at my almost constant companion for the duration of my hospital stay. Even though the rest of the gang had visited me whenever their hectic new schedules allowed them, Rainbowdash never really left unless it was to grab something to eat, bathe, or to use the facilities. This had made my life both easier and harder at the same time. With Rainbow around I had someone to distract me from my guilt over the "Fire Tail" incident, however her constant vigilance had made concentrating on my magic to heal my wounds twice as hard. 'Hmm... Now that I think about it really it's almost like she's been scared of leaving me alone for more then a minute... I mused carefully reviewing every moment I'd spent with Rainbowdash over the last two weeks. Maliciously scrutinizing each moment with all of my not so inconsiderable skills, relying liberally on my a budding sense of empathy. Which I'd started to develop in those countless boring moments in my room. Done while Rainbowdash was sleeping (Could I have used that time to heal? Probably but POLO (Ponies Only Live Once)). What I may have possible discovered sent up red flags, and was definitely something I would think on later. "Hey Pinkie?" questioned Rainbowdash knocking out of my musings. "Yeah Dashie?" I asked turning to look at her. "Why is there a jeweled Muffin in a glass box fighting Zombie Muffins?" She asked confusion coloring her voice. "Ummm.... What?" I asked confused. "There is a Jewel encrusted Muffin Fighting Zombie Muffins with a Jeweled Sword..." Rainbow stated flatly. "Well that's new." I replied with a shrug. Point of View Switched! 2 Minutes Before! Two long weeks spent sitting next to Pinkie was taking it's toll on Rainbowdash and it was starting to show. Normally carrying somepony (anypony really) a quarter mile wouldn't have normally even phased her. Now she was starting to feel like I she was a filly again! The small flight from the hospital had complete drained her! 'Ugh that's not going to do! Hello Tartarus month!' Rainbowdash thought with a moan. Groaning Rainbowdash put aside her foreboding future and decided to focus on her growing curiosity for one of the few places she hadn't been in Ponyville (mostly out of totally rational fear of complete and total pranking annihilation). Mostly the room was as she had expected it would be when thinking of her "excitable" friend. Bright pink and full of partying supplies. What she hadn't ever really expected (but at the same time should have) was an entire wall dedicated to books (mostly cooking). The one thing that she thought was completely out of place however was a long woodened table covered entirely in different do-dads dedicated to chemistry. 'What's Pinkie Pie doing with a chemistry set? What the hell! I can't even tell what half these things do!' Rainbowdash thought frowning at the various instruments and chemicals. Tap! T-tap! Thunk! Puff! 'What the hell is that?' Rainbowdash wondered glancing around hearing various tapping sounds and muffled explosions. Glancing around the room it didn't take her long to find the source of the sounds. On the far end of Pinkie's Chemistry table was a large glass box. Inside said glass box was what looked like a Bran-Muffin, only there was something off about it. It had arms and legs, which in itself was odd. However odder yet it was running around in a light blue body plates . 'Is that muffin wearing Armor?' Rainbowdash wondered to herself before noticing that the armored muffin was running in one direction but never really moving. Instead things seemed to moving around it. Blocky hills rolled past, along with square trees, and animals like miniaturized cows, pigs, and sheep (all equally squared). Heck she would even swear she saw rivers and volcanos in the "background". Out of nowhere a green moldy muffin "Spawned" and started attacking the other Muffin! "What in Tartarus is going on in there?" Rainbowdash asked herself staring shocked as the Jewel armored Muffin slay the "Zombie Muffin" with a jeweled sword. "Okay this is just getting weird..." Rainbowdash decided before turning to her pink friend for advice on the strange contents of the glass box. "Hey Pinkie?" Rainbowdash asked turning to her friend who had a strange look on her face. "Yeah Dashie?" Pinkie asked in reply. "Why is there a jeweled Muffin in a glass box fighting Zombie Muffins?" Rainbowdash asked confusion coloring her voice. "Ummm.... What?" Was the Pink Earthpony's only reply. "There is a Jewel encrusted Muffin Fighting Zombie Muffins with a Jeweled Sword..." Rainbowdash stated flatly. "Well that's new." Pinkie replied with a shrug dismissing the matter entirely. Deciding to take the clearly more experienced pony's advise on this particularly strange event Rainbowdash decided to ignore it completely. "Pinkie Pie... Your room is weird." Rainbowdash stated turning back to the weird glass boxed Muffin. "I usually try not to think about the various Random Events that happen in here." Pinkie replied with a shrug. Tears of an AngelAuthor's Note Okay! Before I get this thing started I just would like to warn you that things get really Fucked up in this chapter. It gets bad.... So fare warning... Tears of an Angel "See ya later Pinkie! I'll be back in a few hours!" Rainbowdash yelled diving out of my window on her way to her "Totally Bombastic Training Obstacle Course of Epic Fiery Doom" 'I guess that roughly two and a half weeks of inactivity can taken it's toll on even Rainbowdash.' I thought with a sigh as I "watched" my cyan friend go through her ridiculous self imposed suicide course. Even from the distance she was at I still couldn't help but feel my heart soar while watching her. There was just something wonderfully other worldly about hearing Rainbowdash flying through the sky. Turning away from the wondrous sight just outside my window I pushed the lever that controlled my wheelchair (Something that Twilight had hooked up for me, so I wouldn't have to always rely on Rainbowdash to push me everywhere. Not that it mattered Rainbow hardly ever left my side, with this being the first time I was really alone since I woke up in the hospital.) and made my way over to the dimensional window that had once been a glass box. Frowning down at the paradox I started with first and foremost obvious test... Poke it with a stick! "Hmm... Well whatever this is affects whatever goes in it..." I said to myself quickly pulling the stick away from the opening of the box as my "Testing Stick of Destiny" started to become pixilated. tap, tap, tap "Hrm?" I asked turning to my window quickly swiping off my "Evil Genius Glasses" and lab coat and throwing them in a corner where they vanished into a pile of miscellaneous things. as I neared my window I realized that it was Derpy probably on another mail run. "Hiya Derpy!" I shouted opening my window. "Hi Pinkie! Here's you letter!" Derpy replied handing over my parcel before haphazardly fling away. "Oh! This must be my reply from PIE!" I said happily feeling the distinctive markings hidden in the design of the letter. Moving to my desk, I opened my message and pushed it flat against the hard wood with a grin. 'They probably finished the new prototype!' I thought excitedly. A little while after waking up the day after "Fire Tail" I convinced Rainbowdash send a letter to PIE for me (Though she took a bit of prodding because she didn't think I really had connections to one of the foremost suppliers of pranking/partying gear.) warning the eggheads about their less then perfect prototypes. Though I did advise them to keep the schematics (Celestia's guards on the wasteland boarder could always use the extra fire power in the case of a sand worm attack. Those suckers could get massive.) for military production on a later date. Excitedly running my hoof over the page I felt my grin fall as I felt a sickening cold pit forming in my stomach. "Oh no." Point of View Switched! 30 Minutes Later "Ugh... Dear Tartarus why'd I make this course so hard?" Rainbowdash moaned to herself dodging another volley of flaming arrows while corkscrewing through a ring of fire. Taking a deep breath Rainbowdash prepared to fight her way through the next portion of her gauntlet. But that idea came to a screeching halt as she felt her blood freeze in their veins... "Pinkie Pie!" Rainbowdash gasped feeling a horrible chill force it's way through her body. She didn't know what was happening. All she knew was that Pinkie Pie was in grave danger. Forcing her frozen body to move. Rainbowdash flew towards Pinkie Pies Window at Sonic Rainboom speeds. Not slowing down for the thin pane of glass Rainbowdash crashed through the window shattering it with ease. Peering into the dark room Rainbowdash felt her heart force itself into her throat. "No... NO! NO! NO!" she yelled in sorrow and shock. There swing in the middle of the room hanging from a rope around her neck was Pinkie Pie. "NO!" Rainbowdash shouted jumping into the air and quickly cutting the rope with a strengthened wing. Pinkie Pie hit the ground with a thud and laid there motionless. Collapsing next to Pinkie Rainbowdash pushed her ear against her friends barrel and listened for any sign of life. Not hearing anything Rainbowdash let out a sob before pushing her hooves down on Pinkie Pies chest and started doing CPR. After a few tries Rainbowdash pressed her ear down against Pinkie's Barrel and listened... Still nothing. "Come on Pinkie! Don't leave me!" Cried Rainbowdash feeling tears freely flow down the sides of her muzzle. Concentrating her Pegasus magic Rainbowdash generated two small storm clouds which she used to try and resuscitate her Friend. Three times she tried before once again listening for Pinkie Pie's heart beat. "No, no, no please Pinkie Pie! Please come back!" Pleaded Rainbowdash once again hearing nothing. "Please! DON'T GIVE UP! PLEASE PINKIE FIGHT!" Rainbowdash roared before using her mini-storm clouds to shock Pinkie Pie once again. 'One more time!' Rainbowdash thought with determination. She wouldn't lose her. She couldn't lose her. She just couldn't. Hollow VictoriesAuthor's Note Welp I warned you. And guess what? It's not over! Come with me lost little soul! Come with me down the rabbit hole! Hollow Victories 4 Months Later Knock! Knock! Knock! "Rainbow?" Twilight whispered stepping into the doorway of a nondescript hospital room. "Rainbow? I've got a letter here for you from the Wonderbolts..." Twilight said waving the paper held in her telekinetic grip. Inside the room sat Rainbowdash. But this wasn't Rainbowdash. Not anymore. No she died months ago, along with her best friend. She didn't die physically. No. But she might as well have. "Come on Rainbow..." started Twilight walking next to the cyan Pegasus' bed. "It's been months... We all miss her... But you can't keep doing this... Your letting yourself waste away..." Twilight whispered quietly stroking Rainbowdash's mane gently. "She wouldn't have wanted this. She'd have wanted us to stay strong... She'd wanted us to be happy." "I couldn't save her." Croaked Rainbowdash, her voice scratchy from the long months of disuse. "I couldn't... and now I'll never get to tell her." "Oh sweetie..." Sighed Twilight pulling Rainbowdash into a comforting hug. "You did your best. It's just that Pinkie Pie gave up..." "Maybe I should too... That way at least I'd get to see her again." Rainbowdash Replied sounding broken. "Don't talk like that!" Twilight yelled giving Rainbowdash a firm shake. "Don't you ever talk like that! Don't you ever talk like that! I know that Pinkie Pie meant a lot to you but enough is enough!" Twilight shouted using the taboo words to emphasize her point. Rainbowdash just hung her heard in defeat, and started to cried as memories of all of the time she spent with Pinkie Pie filled her mind. "Shhh..." whispered Twilight regretting having used those words. They stayed that way until Twilight felt Rainbowdash fall asleep. "Sleep tight Rainbow. I'm sure things will be better tomorrow." Twilight whispered kissing Rainbowdash on the top of her head before tucking her in and sneaking away. Click As soon as the door shut Rainbowdash's eyes shot open. Looking around to make sure she was alone Rainbowdash reached under her pillow and brought out two letters. Opening the first one she carefully unfolded the note and read it's contents. Dear Ms. Pie Well I have some good news, great news, and really bad news for you boss. Great news first! Thanks for the heads up on those defective prototypes! We have now successfully switched the discharge method from gun powder to a spring loaded plunger. The discharge now is some what one directional but your the boss pony so I know that we can't really argue about that. Now the really bad news... It appears that several young foals managed to break into the factory and abscond with at least Ten of the defective models. Worse yet they took them to a park during the busiest part of the day and detonated them all at once. According to the reports we've gotten from the Royal Guard. There has been a total of 120 victims. 20 escaped with only minor injuries, 40 were admitted into intensive care for their injuries/burns, 15 of which later died from their wounds, and 60 died instantly in the blast and resulting fire. In the end 75 in total died, most of which were young foals who were at the epicenter of the blast. Now for some good news (anypony could use some after reading that right?). Princess Celestia has personally gone over our case and has deemed that we are not to blame for the horrible incident. and has dismissed all charges put against us by 10 of the families who see the whole ordeal as our fault. Welp... That's all I have to report. Head Researcher Bright Light 'This was it. This was the letter that destroyed Pinkie Pie and ruined everything. A stupid letter written by a stupider Pony who wasn't bright enough to know just what sort of reaction it would have evoked from somepony like Pinkie Pie. A stupid Bucking letter.' Rainbowdash thought choking down tears of rage. It had taken her two whole months to read it after taking it from her room, and another month to translate it, seeing as it was written in braille for some reason. 'Oh Pinkie Pie... Why'd you have to leave me?' Carefully closing the letter Rainbowdash put it down on her night stand. Taking a deep breath Rainbowdash steeled her nerves and opened the second letter. Dear Girls I am so, so sorry. I can't quite put it to words how sorry I am about doing this to you guys... But I just can't keep living with the knowledge that I (Inadvertently or not) helped cause the death of at least 60 foals. I just can't. So I'm not. I've already made up my mind, and by the time you're reading this I have already succeeded in taking my own life. I'm sorry. To Twilight Sparkle: I leave my vast collection of cook books, and books on magically creatures/events. To Spike: I leave my comic book collection and a large chest of jewels I collected way back when I was a traveling entertainer. To Rarity: I leave all of my dress designs and all the shares I hold in fabric retailers and all the clothing stores I own. To Fluttershy: I leave my pet crocodile Gummy, and 25% of my fortune. To AppleJack: I leave to you 15% of my riches for you to use on Sweet Apple Acres. To Mr. and Mrs. Cake I leave 25% of my fortune. And finally to Rainbowdash: Rainbow. you were my best, best friend, and I loved you for it. To you Rainbowdash I leave two things. First I leave 30% of my fortune. And lastly I leave to you my pride and joy, I leave to you my company P.I.E. little known as Pinkie Intertainment (Yes INTER-tainment Not ENTER-tainment) Enterprises. Congratulations you are now the proud owner of a multi-billion bit company! The rest of my money and whatever you girls don't want shall be given to charity, maybe that'll atone for some of my sins. Again. I just want to say how sorry I truly, truly am for doing this to you guys. Good bye for the last time. Pinkamina Diana Pie Shutting her eyes and biting her lip Rainbowdash cried silently as sorrow overtook her. Clamping down on her sorrow Rainbowdash carefully put away Pinkie Pie's last letter and placed it on her night stand next to the letter responsible for it. Silently climbing out of her bed Rainbowdash quickly straightened it before reaching underneath her pillow and left it lying in the middle of her pillow. Slipping out of her room Rainbowdash swiftly and silently flew to Pinkie Pie's old room and pushed her way in. Grabbing the rope she'd stored there with her last visit Rainbowdash deftly made a hang pony's noose and tied it to the fan. Hovering up to the hole Rainbowdash stuck her head through. Tightened the knot and let herself fall limp. 'Here I come Pinkie Pie.' she thought smiling as the lights faded from her eyes. ********* "FIGHT!" Shooting up with a gasp Pinkie Pie felt her heart start to beat again. Grabbing Rainbowdash she pulled her into a hug and began to cry tears of relief. "I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY!" Was all she could gasp as her body started remembering how to live. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Rainbowdash was just silently hugging her friend back. 'I did it!' she thought with a smile carefully hugging her once dead friend. Slowly pulling away Rainbowdash silenced the sobbing earth pony by kissing her. Letting her know that she didn't care and was just happy that she was back. Pinkie Pie closed her eyes and melted into the kiss. It wasn't real. She was alive. Small BeginningsAuthor's Note Yay! New chapter! XD Lol sorry for not updating in a while guys. I actually finished this chapter like a week ago. But I didn't have time to upload because I've been super busy. So I've basically been holding it captive. Well here it is now! PLEASE REVIEW! Small Beginnings "You kissed me." I whispered snuggling into Rainbowdash's chest. It had been a few hours since my attempted suicide. We were still in the same position we'd fallen in. The remains of the noose around my neck and above us were a harrowing reminder to Rainbow on what nearly happened to me. And a solemn reminder to me what I could have caused. Of what I almost did. "Oh dear sweet Celestia!" Rainbowdash shouted in realization throwing herself away from me. "I'm so sorry! I-I shouldn't have done that!" She apologized looking down. "I-I took advantage of you." she said not looking at me. "Oh no you didn't you silly filly." I sighed and pulled her back to my side while rolling my eyes. "If anything I'm the one who took advantage of you." That seemed to calm her down. "Do you want to talk about it?" Rainbowdash asked a few minutes later. I my hair stand on end while my mane simultaneously wilted. "I guess..." I whispered. "You don't have you know." Rainbowdash replied comfortingly. Though I was pretty sure that she was just trying to keep me calm and placated. 'I don't need that. I need this.' I thought my mind already made up. "No. You need to know." I sighed grabbing the letter from P.I.E. off the end table a few feet away. "Here read this." I said handing Rainbowdash my letter. "Erm... I can't read Brail." Rainbowdash stated causing me to face hoof. "Right sorry." I quickly replied taking the letter back. "Ahem. It's basically a progress report from P.I.E." I summarized. "Mostly an informal letter about how everything is going with our current prototype." I stated running my hoof over the letter. "Erm why is it in Brail?" Rainbowdash asked quickly before I could continue. "Oh... Erm... So no pony can read it if an industrial spy gets their hooves on it!" I lied quickly. I hated lying to my new Marefriend (was she? I'd like to think so, especially with that amazing kiss just now. But I guess that was really something we'd have to talk about later.), but I didn't want her to know the real reason it was in Brail. "And well... the rest of it is well... it's a-..." I stuttered trying desperately to get the words out. But each word felt like a knife into my heart. "Hey... I already told you, you don't have to tell me." She whispered. kissing me on the cheek hesitantly. I guess I wasn't the only one nervous about our budding relationship. "I-I w-want to..." I stuttered trying to bite back my tears. "Then you can... But maybe later..." She said gently taking away the letter. "Besides we need to tell Twilight what happened... and take you to the hospital again. I had to use lightning clouds to bring you back. Who knows what they did to your heart." She explained. "Do we have to? Twilight is probably going to kill me!" I whined. "Yes we do." Rainbowdash laughed. "Rainbow? You'll stay with me right? You won't ever leave me?" I asked softly. "I know that you'll need to go exercise... But you won't leave me right?" I asked brokenly. "No Pinkie. I won't ever leave you. Not now not ever." She replied hugging me. "Come on now. Let's go get you to Twilight." "'k" I whispered acceptingly. "No need I'm already here and I heard everything." Twilight stated flying in through my window. "And I'm not going to lie Pinkie. I'm very disappointed in you." She stated fixing me with a hard glare.
A Day Through Her Eyes'Hmm... Cake... No... Cupcakes... No... A muffin? Now why is there a muffin in my room?!' I thought waking up to the smell of Muffins. Yawning loudly the sound wave bounced around my room. Revealing nothing out of place... Hmm... Nothing... Well nothing except the muffin on my pillow... Why was there a muffin on my pillow? Hmm... Better ask.' "Hello Mr. Muffin! What are You doing on my Pillow?" I inquired tilting my head slightly and poking the Muffin with a Hoof. "Hello Pinkie! Do you want to eat me?" The Muffin Replied.... 'Okay... Talking muffin... Awesome! It must be another magical gift from Dumblesnore? Dumblepour? Dumbles! But why would he send me a suicidal muffin? And why does it know my name? Hmm... Let's find out!' "No thanks Mr. Muffin but I wo-" I started but was promptly cut off by the apparently sentient muffin. "But I wanna die!" It shouted in loudly. "Shh! Everypony else is still sleeping! It's like what?" I asked taking a deep breath through my snout and tasted the air with my tongue playing it off as a yawn all the while opening all of my senses. 'Hmm... High amounts of dew in the air, Still heavy activity... hmm... judging by the subtly flight patterns... it's the Night weather team... putting the time around... Three O'clock at night!' "Three at night!" I whisper/shouted making a play at squinting at the clock on the other side of the room. "I wanna die!" The suicidal muffin shouted again. Thankfully much quieter this time. 'Hmmm... So okay I have a suicidal muffin of yet know origin on my pillow, Twilight is more the definitely asleep... unless she's pulling an all nighter again... Definitely not something a newly crowned princess should be doing... where was I again? Oh yes! And I don't need to start baking for another three hours! Welp... only one thing to do with a situation like this! ***************** 'There! Now I can get back to sleep and have some peace of mind that this particularly unusual muffin won't harm any would be eater incase it's dangerous! TESTS MUST BE MADE!!!! BWUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Ahem (Maniacal Laugh? Check!)! Now back to Candy Land!' I thought with a grin. Carefully ignoring the sound of a rather disgruntled suicidal muffin yelling and beating at his new glass-box home with his tiny muffin arms. Nope No such thing like that happening in this room! Time Skip! 9 Hours In The Future! "I've finished all my orders for today Mr. Cake! I'm going to take off okay!?" I shouted to my "Employers" (though I could honestly easily buy their bakery with all the capital I get from all the my orders and the royalties for my gag/party products) while heading towards the door. "Do you need anything else before I take off?" I asked Pausing in front of the door. "No Pinkie Mr. Cake and I have everything handled!" Mrs. Cake said happily while Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake Float/Fly around her head doing an aerial form of flight tag. "Go ahead and take off! Oh and make sure to remind Twilight to eat! I know Spike does but a little extra encouragement never hurt!" Giggling slightly I bounced out of the bakery and proceeded to avoid getting run down but the CMC who were once again on one of their oh so infamous quests. "Okay... Where should I go first?" I asked myself bouncing down the street using each sonic pulse revealing everything within a Ten foot radius. "Hmm... Well I should probably visit Twilight first." I said with a slight grimace. I did not like that crystal castle/tree. Sound bounced around in it weird making everything look shaky. 'Oh well shaky sights here I come!' I though with a sigh before diving through an open window and emerging from a flower pot across the street from Twilight's Castle. 'I still don't understand how that works...' I thought carefully ignoring the slightly buzzing sign above it More Science Required 'Yep totally going to ignore that!' "Welp! Here I go!" I said and stepped through Twilight's door. Time Skip! 15 Minutes Later 'Why is this castle soooo big?' I wondered walking around the confusingly large castle. Considering it's lack of size on the outside the massiveness on the inside was rather disconcert. 'This place hasn't even been magicked by Dumbles! Why is it soooo big?! I thought with a sigh. "I wonder what Dumbles is up to right now?" Across The Dimensional Divide! In A Bigger On The Inside Office "ACHOO!!!!!!!!!!" "Are you okay Sir?" Hairy Potter asked the Head Master of Hogwarts slightly concerned for the old geezer. He'd been sneezing a lot as of late. "Herm? No, no I'm fine! Just a rather unusual Equine is probably thinking about me again." The Old Man stated with a shake of his head. "Um okay?" 'Dumbledore is definitely going Senile.' Harry thought before paying attention to the Head Master as he gave a summery of what had happened after he'd past out from fighting Voldemort. Back To Equestria! "Why do I suddenly feel like I have whiplash?" I asked myself shaking my head back and forth. "Aha! Finally!" I shouted and jumped through a painting and appeared next to Twilight in her Library. Still carefully ignoring the weird floating signs. "Hi Twilight! Mrs. Cake wanted me to remind you to eat! Here! Have a pie!" I shouted before diving through Twilight's shadow and appearing outside the front door of the castle! 'Finally! I'm out of that infernal place!' I thought with a sigh of relief. "Seeing" everything like I'd expect somepony would through water would was very irritating. "Hmm... Now what?" Author's Note Hello Everypony!

Spontanious Pony Combustion... In A Can?Author's Note Alright! Already! A new chapter tonight! Going to dally on this one's introduction a bit! The reason is that I've started a little... game for this story. In each chapter (yes there's one in chapter one as well) I'll be leaving (or have already left) an obscure reference if you can find this obscure reference I will give the first two people to find it and tell me it (and what it's from) access to my newest incomplete chapter. Meaning If Someone spots a reference not discovered in chapter 1 when chapter 6 is already out that means that person will have access to chapter 7. Understand? The Access will continue until the chapter is completed there after the passport will be changed so you can't continue looking in when you haven't won the privilege. Sound exciting? I think so! Now get in there and find those references!!!!!!! P.S. Please leave a review at the end of the chapter... I'm begging you guys. Please. Please do. Spontanious Pony Combustion... In A Can? "Hmm... What to do! What to do?" I wondered to myself aimlessly bouncing down the street. "Pinkie Pie!" A familiar light grey Pegasus with a bright yellow mane shouted dropping out of the sky before landing Like A Boss! "Oh hello Derpy!" I said pausing in mid-air. "Is that a new perfume you're wearing?" I asked (still floating) alluding to the fact that she smelled like a giant muffin. "Yep!" Derpy replied with a smile before digging through her delivery bag and removing a package and handing it to me... Or she at least tried... "Erm... Pinkie? Are you floating?" "Yepperonies!" I shouted back doing a flip in mid air to emphasize my point. "Um... Do you think you could come down?" Derpy asked adorably tilting her head slightly. "Okie Dokie!" I replied using my MNS (Master Ninja Skills) to pop out of Derpy's shadow, before taking the package out of her hooves. "Yay! I got a package! I wonder what's in it?" I wondered waving be to Derpy as she flew away. "Hmm... Maybe another Prototype from the eggheads down at P.I.E. (Pinkie Intertainment (Yes INTER-tainment Not ENTER-tainment) Enterprises?)" I mumbled to myself as I started walking away. 'Hmm... Weighs approximately two pounds... The box is about a foot across and six inches wide... And is tightly wrapped both outside and in...' I thought while wondering out of town towards White Tail forest giving the box a slight shake. 'Meh this looks like a good spot to open this!' I thought stopping in the middle of a clearing. Sitting down I closed my eyes (which wasn't exactly necessary but I did it anyway) and opened up all my senses. Giving a piercing whistle I tracked the high pitched sonic pulse and found nothing in the immediate area though I could hear some birds and a few Pegasus' about a Two hundred yards away. Lowering my Senses again I proceeded to tear open the package. Grinning like a mad pony I held up a Small Cylinder with a pull away metal tab. "Glitter Bomb" I read running a hoof down the side of the canister. Grinning again I pulled the tab and threw it a little away. My "Pinkie Sense" activated a second later... "Oh Buck-" Was all I managed before the little unassuming canister explode with Pretty Pink rage. Whomph! BANG! Point of View Switched. 2 Minutes Earlier. "Ugh this is so boring!" Rainbow Dash moaned lying on a heavenly soft cloud bemoaning her horrible fate... Boredom. There was utterly nothing for her to do. She'd already finished all her duties with the weather team (She'd even finished all of her paper work!), done all of her practicing for all of the various sports that she competed in, and finished (again) the Latest Daring Do novel! "Why can't something exciting ever happen when I want it?" RD asked herself rolling onto her stomach and prepared to take off. "Hmm... Maybe I could go prank Rarity or Apple Jack?" she asked herself. Whomph! BANG! "Holy! What in Tartarus was that!" RD yelled as she was nearly blown out of the sky by a sudden blast of air. Turning around she spotted a large black Mushroom cloud on the other side of Ponyville. "Well ask and you shall receive!" Rainbow Dash muttered before flying as fast towards the foreboding cloud. 1 Minute Later "WHAT IN TARTARUS HAPPENED HERE!" Rainbow Dash yelled over the fire stopping one of the weather team who were rushing around desperately using any close by clouds to put out the blazing fire that had sprung up out of nowhere. "WE'VE GOT NO IDEA! EVERYTHING WAS CALM HERE A MINUTE AGO! ONE SECOND EVERYTHING'S NICE AND CLEAR AND THE NEXT WE'RE DEALING WITH THIS!" Yelled the Pegasus over the sound of the blaze before flying off to get a fresh cloud. "Sonofab-" Rainbow stopped about rush off to help but stopped a line of knocked down trees. "That looks bad." She whispered following the damage to the lake a hundred yards from Ground Zero of the fire. "Damn what could have caused this kind of damage?" Rainbow Dash wondered doing circles above the lake. "PINKIE!!!" Rainbow Dash shouted spotting a familiar Bright Pink bobbing in the waves. 'Maybe Pinkie saw what happened?' Rainbow thought swooping down towards the ball of energy. "PINKIE!" Rainbow shouted again this time in fear as she noticed the black burns that covered her body and the slowly spreading red that was seeping into the water. Not wasting a second Rainbow Dash scooped up her friend as gently as she could before zooming off towards the Hospital as fast as she could without hurting Pinkie Pie even more.
A Sad Drummer IndeedAuthor's Note Yay! New Chapter! I'm on a role! XD Lol sorry ya'll for the last chapter being so short (less then a 1,000 words). I wanted to make it longer. But as is the case for most works of literature the story has taken on a life of it's own. So yeah that's my BS excuse. The frequency of that happening will be random I don't know. But if it happens it happens. If later chapters fit better as 1 whole 1 instead of 2 I'll combine them like what happened in this one! Anywho Let's get this show on the road! Please leave a review at the end! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!! A Sad Drummer Indeed "Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" chanted Rainbow Dash pacing back and forth in front of the hospital, her head flicking between the fire and the building which Pinkie now resided in. 'I should be over there helping!' Rainbow groused argumentatively to herself. Spreading her wings in preparation to take off. 'But you won't because Pinkie needs you to be here for her.' a small voice whispered back unhelpfully, causing Rainbow to lower her wings again. This had been the self repeating argument the poor cyan Pegasus had been having with herself over the past ten minutes. psyching herself up to help take out the rabidly growing fire, only for her will to fight the blaze to be shot down in flaming ball of death by a little voice in the back of her head. "Buck this! I'll come back and worry about Pinkie later!" Rainbow shouted taking off. 'But what if there isn't a Pinkie left to come back to by the time you're done?' The ever unhelpful voice asked. "Then I'll just have to fly down into Tartarus itself to get her back won't I?" Rainbow Dash demanded flying even faster as her worry for her favorite partner in crime set itself deeply within her heart. 2 Hours Later "Finally!" groaned Rainbow Dash as the last of the fire was put out. It had taken Eighteen water tornados and a lot of back up from Cloudsdale to finally put out the blaze. Right now all Rainbow Dash wanted to do was crawl into bed or the nearest cloud and pass out. She wouldn't though. She had to wait for Pinkie and make sure she was okay. Groaning again Rainbow Dash made her way into the hospital. "Uh hey? I'm looking for... Pinkie Pie's room..." Rainbow Dash finished lamely as the Nurse ran off the second she spotted the Cyan Pegasus. "Rainbow Dash!" Doctor Horse said overly joyous which sent off a bunch of Rainbow Dash's internal alarms. "How's my favorite frequent-patient?" "I'm fine DH. I brought in Pinkie earlier. She was pretty banged up can you tell what room she's in?" Rainbow Dash asked desperately ignore the cacophony of bells that was going off in her head as the doctor frowned and lead her down the halls towards the ICU. "Here she is..." Stated Doctor Horse peaking his head through the door for a second. "Before you go in." Doctor Horse stated warningly placing a Hoof on her shoulder. "I'm not going to lie to you Rainbow. Whatever happened to her caused A Lot of damage. And right now she's going to need her friends to stand by her." he said electing a nod from Rainbow Dash. "Go on inside, I've already sent for the rest of your friends. You'll have her alone for maybe ten minutes or so." "Okay thanks doc." 'Though I don't exactly know why you had to stop me to tell me that since I was the one to bring her in.' Rainbow Dash though shaking her head as she walked into the room. Point of View Switched. 5 Minutes Earlier. "Ugh... My head..." I moaned feeling like the day after I'd drank a years worth of Granny Smiths infamous Zap Apple Whisky™. 'Aw man! Even in my own head it's Trade Marked! How'd she do that?' I thought scrunching up my face in confusion earing myself a painful stabbing pain in my snout for my troubles. Letting out a high pitched yawn I followed the sonic pulse around the room. 'Something's not right.' I thought frowning slightly. Nothing looked right. It was as if I was underwater or in Twilight's castle again (Which I wasn't the distinct lack of the smell of books ensured that). Tapping into my magical core, I began to circulate magic throughout my body, flinching every now and then at the severity of some of my wounds. Finally reaching my ears I felt a could pit form within my stomach. My left ear drum was completely blown, and my right ear was pretty torn up as well. "That's not good." I whispered worriedly to myself. I depended on my echolocation entirely, and without it I highly doubted I'd be able to make it five feet let alone down the street or do any of the billions of things that I had to do on in my daily routine. Sighing in trepidation I took comfort that it would take me at least a week for my ear to heal and a month at most before Twilight would probably let me anywhere near my own door. So assuming that happened I had ample time to let my advanced healing take care of me. For now I'd have to rely on my "Pinkie Sense" (Which while great for tracking and avoiding, made for horrible navigation) to get me around. "Buck this is going to suck." I moaned ******* "Hi Rainbowdash!" I shouted happily a few minutes later, as I sensed her walk into my room using my PS (Pinkie Sense). "Sorry if I'm not looking at you! I'm having a bit of trouble moving my neck right now!" I sighed using my one good hoof to tap at the neck brace. I could hear Rainbowdash mumble something... Actually scratch that my ears where currently shot so she was probably talking at normal volume I just could hear her. "Um could you say that a little louder? I can't hear you I think a may have possibly blown my ear drums! That or my head is wrapped in cotton! But that'd just be silly-!" I said "Pinkie!" Shouted Rainbowdash interrupting my tirade. "I asked if you were okay?!" She asked/shouted "Oh me? I'm fine! Well... That putting things in perspective I guess... I do still have some wood shrapnel in my back, two broken hoofs, a third wrapped in enough enchanted cloth to serve as an anvil, a recently re-inflated lung, some cracked/broken ribs, and newly healed bursted intestines... So as a whole no I'm not fine but that's all been partially if not mostly fixed so I'm good!" I stated flippantly listing off my wounds forgetting how most pony's weren't me. "WHAT!!!!!!" Rainbowdash shouted temporarily deafening my currently half functioning ear. "Rainbow! A little lower please! I'd like to still be able to half hear with my right ear!" I half shouted while failingly trying to use my front left hoof (The one not wrapped in Enchanted cloth) to rub my ringing ear. "Anyway were are the other girls?" I asked blinking a few tears away. "How can you say all that like it's nothing?!" Shouted Rainbow ignoring my question but this time got her voice a lot lower. I just shrugged as much as the various bandaging's and casts allowed me. Rainbowdash just face hoofed at my answer. "Anywho! Where are the other girls?" I asked for the second time. "Fluttershy is busy taking care of all the displaced animals, I think I spotted Applejack along with the rest of her family clearing out some of the fallen trees, Rarity is Busy helping to patch up the anypony who got hurt, And Twilight is probably in her office blazing a path through all the paperwork that comes with replacing all of the trees destroyed in White Tail Forest." Rainbowdash listed off going over a mental list of where our friends probably were. "Okay? I get they're all busy but Why are they busy? What happened? What did I miss?" I asked teleporting all around the room in my haste to get answers. "Oh yeah your were knocked out right?" Rainbowdash asked rhetorically face palming. "Well something exploded in White Tail and set fire to a lot of the surrounding trees." Rainbowdash stated raising an eyebrow at my flinch. "Yeah I exploded." I stated depressingly my hair deflating with my mood. "Was anypony badly hurt?" "Not really. The most anypony got was a bump on the head from a falling branch." Rainbow stated gently putting a comforting hoof on my shoulder when my mood fell even lower. I let out a small sob, desperately wishing I could turn my head away from Rainbowdash as tears slid down my face. I didn't react as Rainbowdash pulled me into a hug. I just felt so horrible. Even though nopony was really hurt I still felt responsible for the damages and destruction. I just couldn't take it. Ever since finding my cutie-mark I'd made it my mission to make everyone I could happy. And this recent even just did the opposite of that. I'd broken my Pinkie Promise. We spent what felt like hours like that. With me crying my heart out and her just embracing me. I know I didn't deserve it, but at that moment I wished that time would stop and we could've stayed like that forever. Welp that's it! before I go I just would like to say I'm quiet happy with how this story is being received by the community! I'm actually getting likes and reviews! Yay me! Anywho! A big thank you to Wolfie 03 for all the help! Trust me guys without her this story would be a giant flaming fail! Also I big thanks to my lazy ass beta readers who are actually doing what they're being paid too, instead of just lumping all the work off on Amanda! So thank you SUBJECT-XVI (Fanfiction/InsanityInc), WitheredTroll94 (InsanityInc), Fooliest Cesar (InsanityInc), and last but not least Ermis Green (Amanda's Foster Sister/Girlfriend (YouTube) (Damn it Amanda! How the Buck am I supposed to label you two?)) Well bye bye ya'll until next time!
MuffincraftAuthor's Note So. Much. Writing. My brain currently hates me... Oh well! SUCK IT UP BRAIN!!! Lol This chapter would have been posted yesterday but I thought it sounded better attached to the previous chapter so after a little re-writing I attached it onto chapter 3. That's right! this is technically chapter 5! If you'd already read chapter 3 before I posted this one I highly suggest you go back and read chapter 3 again! Also the chapter isn't really meant to be taken as seriously as the rest of the chapters I posted. It's mostly a filler that me and the rest of my betas thought would be fun to upload. Okay! Enough stalling! here's the new chapter! Muffincraft "Finally home!" I moaned joyously as Rainbowdash wheeled me through my window into my room. After two long tear stained week at the hospital I had finally been released! "Is here okay?" Rainbowdash asked stationing me next to my bed. "Yepperionies!" I replied happily smiling brightly at my almost constant companion for the duration of my hospital stay. Even though the rest of the gang had visited me whenever their hectic new schedules allowed them, Rainbowdash never really left unless it was to grab something to eat, bathe, or to use the facilities. This had made my life both easier and harder at the same time. With Rainbow around I had someone to distract me from my guilt over the "Fire Tail" incident, however her constant vigilance had made concentrating on my magic to heal my wounds twice as hard. 'Hmm... Now that I think about it really it's almost like she's been scared of leaving me alone for more then a minute... I mused carefully reviewing every moment I'd spent with Rainbowdash over the last two weeks. Maliciously scrutinizing each moment with all of my not so inconsiderable skills, relying liberally on my a budding sense of empathy. Which I'd started to develop in those countless boring moments in my room. Done while Rainbowdash was sleeping (Could I have used that time to heal? Probably but POLO (Ponies Only Live Once)). What I may have possible discovered sent up red flags, and was definitely something I would think on later. "Hey Pinkie?" questioned Rainbowdash knocking out of my musings. "Yeah Dashie?" I asked turning to look at her. "Why is there a jeweled Muffin in a glass box fighting Zombie Muffins?" She asked confusion coloring her voice. "Ummm.... What?" I asked confused. "There is a Jewel encrusted Muffin Fighting Zombie Muffins with a Jeweled Sword..." Rainbow stated flatly. "Well that's new." I replied with a shrug. Point of View Switched! 2 Minutes Before! Two long weeks spent sitting next to Pinkie was taking it's toll on Rainbowdash and it was starting to show. Normally carrying somepony (anypony really) a quarter mile wouldn't have normally even phased her. Now she was starting to feel like I she was a filly again! The small flight from the hospital had complete drained her! 'Ugh that's not going to do! Hello Tartarus month!' Rainbowdash thought with a moan. Groaning Rainbowdash put aside her foreboding future and decided to focus on her growing curiosity for one of the few places she hadn't been in Ponyville (mostly out of totally rational fear of complete and total pranking annihilation). Mostly the room was as she had expected it would be when thinking of her "excitable" friend. Bright pink and full of partying supplies. What she hadn't ever really expected (but at the same time should have) was an entire wall dedicated to books (mostly cooking). The one thing that she thought was completely out of place however was a long woodened table covered entirely in different do-dads dedicated to chemistry. 'What's Pinkie Pie doing with a chemistry set? What the hell! I can't even tell what half these things do!' Rainbowdash thought frowning at the various instruments and chemicals. Tap! T-tap! Thunk! Puff! 'What the hell is that?' Rainbowdash wondered glancing around hearing various tapping sounds and muffled explosions. Glancing around the room it didn't take her long to find the source of the sounds. On the far end of Pinkie's Chemistry table was a large glass box. Inside said glass box was what looked like a Bran-Muffin, only there was something off about it. It had arms and legs, which in itself was odd. However odder yet it was running around in a light blue body plates . 'Is that muffin wearing Armor?' Rainbowdash wondered to herself before noticing that the armored muffin was running in one direction but never really moving. Instead things seemed to moving around it. Blocky hills rolled past, along with square trees, and animals like miniaturized cows, pigs, and sheep (all equally squared). Heck she would even swear she saw rivers and volcanos in the "background". Out of nowhere a green moldy muffin "Spawned" and started attacking the other Muffin! "What in Tartarus is going on in there?" Rainbowdash asked herself staring shocked as the Jewel armored Muffin slay the "Zombie Muffin" with a jeweled sword. "Okay this is just getting weird..." Rainbowdash decided before turning to her pink friend for advice on the strange contents of the glass box. "Hey Pinkie?" Rainbowdash asked turning to her friend who had a strange look on her face. "Yeah Dashie?" Pinkie asked in reply. "Why is there a jeweled Muffin in a glass box fighting Zombie Muffins?" Rainbowdash asked confusion coloring her voice. "Ummm.... What?" Was the Pink Earthpony's only reply. "There is a Jewel encrusted Muffin Fighting Zombie Muffins with a Jeweled Sword..." Rainbowdash stated flatly. "Well that's new." Pinkie replied with a shrug dismissing the matter entirely. Deciding to take the clearly more experienced pony's advise on this particularly strange event Rainbowdash decided to ignore it completely. "Pinkie Pie... Your room is weird." Rainbowdash stated turning back to the weird glass boxed Muffin. "I usually try not to think about the various Random Events that happen in here." Pinkie replied with a shrug.
Tears of an AngelAuthor's Note Okay! Before I get this thing started I just would like to warn you that things get really Fucked up in this chapter. It gets bad.... So fare warning... Tears of an Angel "See ya later Pinkie! I'll be back in a few hours!" Rainbowdash yelled diving out of my window on her way to her "Totally Bombastic Training Obstacle Course of Epic Fiery Doom" 'I guess that roughly two and a half weeks of inactivity can taken it's toll on even Rainbowdash.' I thought with a sigh as I "watched" my cyan friend go through her ridiculous self imposed suicide course. Even from the distance she was at I still couldn't help but feel my heart soar while watching her. There was just something wonderfully other worldly about hearing Rainbowdash flying through the sky. Turning away from the wondrous sight just outside my window I pushed the lever that controlled my wheelchair (Something that Twilight had hooked up for me, so I wouldn't have to always rely on Rainbowdash to push me everywhere. Not that it mattered Rainbow hardly ever left my side, with this being the first time I was really alone since I woke up in the hospital.) and made my way over to the dimensional window that had once been a glass box. Frowning down at the paradox I started with first and foremost obvious test... Poke it with a stick! "Hmm... Well whatever this is affects whatever goes in it..." I said to myself quickly pulling the stick away from the opening of the box as my "Testing Stick of Destiny" started to become pixilated. tap, tap, tap "Hrm?" I asked turning to my window quickly swiping off my "Evil Genius Glasses" and lab coat and throwing them in a corner where they vanished into a pile of miscellaneous things. as I neared my window I realized that it was Derpy probably on another mail run. "Hiya Derpy!" I shouted opening my window. "Hi Pinkie! Here's you letter!" Derpy replied handing over my parcel before haphazardly fling away. "Oh! This must be my reply from PIE!" I said happily feeling the distinctive markings hidden in the design of the letter. Moving to my desk, I opened my message and pushed it flat against the hard wood with a grin. 'They probably finished the new prototype!' I thought excitedly. A little while after waking up the day after "Fire Tail" I convinced Rainbowdash send a letter to PIE for me (Though she took a bit of prodding because she didn't think I really had connections to one of the foremost suppliers of pranking/partying gear.) warning the eggheads about their less then perfect prototypes. Though I did advise them to keep the schematics (Celestia's guards on the wasteland boarder could always use the extra fire power in the case of a sand worm attack. Those suckers could get massive.) for military production on a later date. Excitedly running my hoof over the page I felt my grin fall as I felt a sickening cold pit forming in my stomach. "Oh no." Point of View Switched! 30 Minutes Later "Ugh... Dear Tartarus why'd I make this course so hard?" Rainbowdash moaned to herself dodging another volley of flaming arrows while corkscrewing through a ring of fire. Taking a deep breath Rainbowdash prepared to fight her way through the next portion of her gauntlet. But that idea came to a screeching halt as she felt her blood freeze in their veins... "Pinkie Pie!" Rainbowdash gasped feeling a horrible chill force it's way through her body. She didn't know what was happening. All she knew was that Pinkie Pie was in grave danger. Forcing her frozen body to move. Rainbowdash flew towards Pinkie Pies Window at Sonic Rainboom speeds. Not slowing down for the thin pane of glass Rainbowdash crashed through the window shattering it with ease. Peering into the dark room Rainbowdash felt her heart force itself into her throat. "No... NO! NO! NO!" she yelled in sorrow and shock. There swing in the middle of the room hanging from a rope around her neck was Pinkie Pie. "NO!" Rainbowdash shouted jumping into the air and quickly cutting the rope with a strengthened wing. Pinkie Pie hit the ground with a thud and laid there motionless. Collapsing next to Pinkie Rainbowdash pushed her ear against her friends barrel and listened for any sign of life. Not hearing anything Rainbowdash let out a sob before pushing her hooves down on Pinkie Pies chest and started doing CPR. After a few tries Rainbowdash pressed her ear down against Pinkie's Barrel and listened... Still nothing. "Come on Pinkie! Don't leave me!" Cried Rainbowdash feeling tears freely flow down the sides of her muzzle. Concentrating her Pegasus magic Rainbowdash generated two small storm clouds which she used to try and resuscitate her Friend. Three times she tried before once again listening for Pinkie Pie's heart beat. "No, no, no please Pinkie Pie! Please come back!" Pleaded Rainbowdash once again hearing nothing. "Please! DON'T GIVE UP! PLEASE PINKIE FIGHT!" Rainbowdash roared before using her mini-storm clouds to shock Pinkie Pie once again. 'One more time!' Rainbowdash thought with determination. She wouldn't lose her. She couldn't lose her. She just couldn't.
Hollow VictoriesAuthor's Note Welp I warned you. And guess what? It's not over! Come with me lost little soul! Come with me down the rabbit hole! Hollow Victories 4 Months Later Knock! Knock! Knock! "Rainbow?" Twilight whispered stepping into the doorway of a nondescript hospital room. "Rainbow? I've got a letter here for you from the Wonderbolts..." Twilight said waving the paper held in her telekinetic grip. Inside the room sat Rainbowdash. But this wasn't Rainbowdash. Not anymore. No she died months ago, along with her best friend. She didn't die physically. No. But she might as well have. "Come on Rainbow..." started Twilight walking next to the cyan Pegasus' bed. "It's been months... We all miss her... But you can't keep doing this... Your letting yourself waste away..." Twilight whispered quietly stroking Rainbowdash's mane gently. "She wouldn't have wanted this. She'd have wanted us to stay strong... She'd wanted us to be happy." "I couldn't save her." Croaked Rainbowdash, her voice scratchy from the long months of disuse. "I couldn't... and now I'll never get to tell her." "Oh sweetie..." Sighed Twilight pulling Rainbowdash into a comforting hug. "You did your best. It's just that Pinkie Pie gave up..." "Maybe I should too... That way at least I'd get to see her again." Rainbowdash Replied sounding broken. "Don't talk like that!" Twilight yelled giving Rainbowdash a firm shake. "Don't you ever talk like that! Don't you ever talk like that! I know that Pinkie Pie meant a lot to you but enough is enough!" Twilight shouted using the taboo words to emphasize her point. Rainbowdash just hung her heard in defeat, and started to cried as memories of all of the time she spent with Pinkie Pie filled her mind. "Shhh..." whispered Twilight regretting having used those words. They stayed that way until Twilight felt Rainbowdash fall asleep. "Sleep tight Rainbow. I'm sure things will be better tomorrow." Twilight whispered kissing Rainbowdash on the top of her head before tucking her in and sneaking away. Click As soon as the door shut Rainbowdash's eyes shot open. Looking around to make sure she was alone Rainbowdash reached under her pillow and brought out two letters. Opening the first one she carefully unfolded the note and read it's contents. Dear Ms. Pie Well I have some good news, great news, and really bad news for you boss. Great news first! Thanks for the heads up on those defective prototypes! We have now successfully switched the discharge method from gun powder to a spring loaded plunger. The discharge now is some what one directional but your the boss pony so I know that we can't really argue about that. Now the really bad news... It appears that several young foals managed to break into the factory and abscond with at least Ten of the defective models. Worse yet they took them to a park during the busiest part of the day and detonated them all at once. According to the reports we've gotten from the Royal Guard. There has been a total of 120 victims. 20 escaped with only minor injuries, 40 were admitted into intensive care for their injuries/burns, 15 of which later died from their wounds, and 60 died instantly in the blast and resulting fire. In the end 75 in total died, most of which were young foals who were at the epicenter of the blast. Now for some good news (anypony could use some after reading that right?). Princess Celestia has personally gone over our case and has deemed that we are not to blame for the horrible incident. and has dismissed all charges put against us by 10 of the families who see the whole ordeal as our fault. Welp... That's all I have to report. Head Researcher Bright Light 'This was it. This was the letter that destroyed Pinkie Pie and ruined everything. A stupid letter written by a stupider Pony who wasn't bright enough to know just what sort of reaction it would have evoked from somepony like Pinkie Pie. A stupid Bucking letter.' Rainbowdash thought choking down tears of rage. It had taken her two whole months to read it after taking it from her room, and another month to translate it, seeing as it was written in braille for some reason. 'Oh Pinkie Pie... Why'd you have to leave me?' Carefully closing the letter Rainbowdash put it down on her night stand. Taking a deep breath Rainbowdash steeled her nerves and opened the second letter. Dear Girls I am so, so sorry. I can't quite put it to words how sorry I am about doing this to you guys... But I just can't keep living with the knowledge that I (Inadvertently or not) helped cause the death of at least 60 foals. I just can't. So I'm not. I've already made up my mind, and by the time you're reading this I have already succeeded in taking my own life. I'm sorry. To Twilight Sparkle: I leave my vast collection of cook books, and books on magically creatures/events. To Spike: I leave my comic book collection and a large chest of jewels I collected way back when I was a traveling entertainer. To Rarity: I leave all of my dress designs and all the shares I hold in fabric retailers and all the clothing stores I own. To Fluttershy: I leave my pet crocodile Gummy, and 25% of my fortune. To AppleJack: I leave to you 15% of my riches for you to use on Sweet Apple Acres. To Mr. and Mrs. Cake I leave 25% of my fortune. And finally to Rainbowdash: Rainbow. you were my best, best friend, and I loved you for it. To you Rainbowdash I leave two things. First I leave 30% of my fortune. And lastly I leave to you my pride and joy, I leave to you my company P.I.E. little known as Pinkie Intertainment (Yes INTER-tainment Not ENTER-tainment) Enterprises. Congratulations you are now the proud owner of a multi-billion bit company! The rest of my money and whatever you girls don't want shall be given to charity, maybe that'll atone for some of my sins. Again. I just want to say how sorry I truly, truly am for doing this to you guys. Good bye for the last time. Pinkamina Diana Pie Shutting her eyes and biting her lip Rainbowdash cried silently as sorrow overtook her. Clamping down on her sorrow Rainbowdash carefully put away Pinkie Pie's last letter and placed it on her night stand next to the letter responsible for it. Silently climbing out of her bed Rainbowdash quickly straightened it before reaching underneath her pillow and left it lying in the middle of her pillow. Slipping out of her room Rainbowdash swiftly and silently flew to Pinkie Pie's old room and pushed her way in. Grabbing the rope she'd stored there with her last visit Rainbowdash deftly made a hang pony's noose and tied it to the fan. Hovering up to the hole Rainbowdash stuck her head through. Tightened the knot and let herself fall limp. 'Here I come Pinkie Pie.' she thought smiling as the lights faded from her eyes. ********* "FIGHT!" Shooting up with a gasp Pinkie Pie felt her heart start to beat again. Grabbing Rainbowdash she pulled her into a hug and began to cry tears of relief. "I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY!" Was all she could gasp as her body started remembering how to live. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Rainbowdash was just silently hugging her friend back. 'I did it!' she thought with a smile carefully hugging her once dead friend. Slowly pulling away Rainbowdash silenced the sobbing earth pony by kissing her. Letting her know that she didn't care and was just happy that she was back. Pinkie Pie closed her eyes and melted into the kiss. It wasn't real. She was alive.
Small BeginningsAuthor's Note Yay! New chapter! XD Lol sorry for not updating in a while guys. I actually finished this chapter like a week ago. But I didn't have time to upload because I've been super busy. So I've basically been holding it captive. Well here it is now! PLEASE REVIEW! Small Beginnings "You kissed me." I whispered snuggling into Rainbowdash's chest. It had been a few hours since my attempted suicide. We were still in the same position we'd fallen in. The remains of the noose around my neck and above us were a harrowing reminder to Rainbow on what nearly happened to me. And a solemn reminder to me what I could have caused. Of what I almost did. "Oh dear sweet Celestia!" Rainbowdash shouted in realization throwing herself away from me. "I'm so sorry! I-I shouldn't have done that!" She apologized looking down. "I-I took advantage of you." she said not looking at me. "Oh no you didn't you silly filly." I sighed and pulled her back to my side while rolling my eyes. "If anything I'm the one who took advantage of you." That seemed to calm her down. "Do you want to talk about it?" Rainbowdash asked a few minutes later. I my hair stand on end while my mane simultaneously wilted. "I guess..." I whispered. "You don't have you know." Rainbowdash replied comfortingly. Though I was pretty sure that she was just trying to keep me calm and placated. 'I don't need that. I need this.' I thought my mind already made up. "No. You need to know." I sighed grabbing the letter from P.I.E. off the end table a few feet away. "Here read this." I said handing Rainbowdash my letter. "Erm... I can't read Brail." Rainbowdash stated causing me to face hoof. "Right sorry." I quickly replied taking the letter back. "Ahem. It's basically a progress report from P.I.E." I summarized. "Mostly an informal letter about how everything is going with our current prototype." I stated running my hoof over the letter. "Erm why is it in Brail?" Rainbowdash asked quickly before I could continue. "Oh... Erm... So no pony can read it if an industrial spy gets their hooves on it!" I lied quickly. I hated lying to my new Marefriend (was she? I'd like to think so, especially with that amazing kiss just now. But I guess that was really something we'd have to talk about later.), but I didn't want her to know the real reason it was in Brail. "And well... the rest of it is well... it's a-..." I stuttered trying desperately to get the words out. But each word felt like a knife into my heart. "Hey... I already told you, you don't have to tell me." She whispered. kissing me on the cheek hesitantly. I guess I wasn't the only one nervous about our budding relationship. "I-I w-want to..." I stuttered trying to bite back my tears. "Then you can... But maybe later..." She said gently taking away the letter. "Besides we need to tell Twilight what happened... and take you to the hospital again. I had to use lightning clouds to bring you back. Who knows what they did to your heart." She explained. "Do we have to? Twilight is probably going to kill me!" I whined. "Yes we do." Rainbowdash laughed. "Rainbow? You'll stay with me right? You won't ever leave me?" I asked softly. "I know that you'll need to go exercise... But you won't leave me right?" I asked brokenly. "No Pinkie. I won't ever leave you. Not now not ever." She replied hugging me. "Come on now. Let's go get you to Twilight." "'k" I whispered acceptingly. "No need I'm already here and I heard everything." Twilight stated flying in through my window. "And I'm not going to lie Pinkie. I'm very disappointed in you." She stated fixing me with a hard glare.
