Dash awoke in Ponyville. It seemed no pony could see her. She looked up at the sky. Sure enough the weather patrol was out of order. If one peagusus was out of the process, it would be all screwed up. Dash proceeded to Twilight's library to where Pinkie was, maybe her friends could see her.
Dash went inside of the library. It seemed Pinkie pie could see her, but not Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rarity, or Flutter Shy. Dash walked over to Pinkie pie and caught her attention. Pinkie pie screamed. "Pinkie pie, why are you screaming?" Twilight asked. "I-Its Rainbow D-Dash! Something H-Horrible has happened to h-her!" Pinkie said stammering while hiding her face in her hooves. "Ah don't see anything Pinkie pie." Said Applejack. "I agree. There's nothing there." agreed Rarity.
"I'll be back to the bakery tonight, and I'm going to have a talk with you. How COULD you Pinkie pie! I was your friend." Dash screamed. Then, the ghost Dash disappeared and left Pinkie alone with the others. "Pinkie pie, what was that? You look like you've seen a ghost." Twilight said. But that was the truth. Pinkie pie HAD seen a ghost. But Pinkie pie knew she had to keep calm, otherwise they would follow her home, and she would be found out. "Oh, its just fine. I saw a bug over there! Its HUGE! I better go squash it." Pinkie pie said walking over to the other side of the room, and stomped her hoof, pretending to step on something.
"Ah didn't know Pinkie pie was so afraid of bugs." Applejack whispered to Twilight Sparkle. "Me too. But, if it was huge, I guess she would freak out too." Replied Twilight. Luckily, Pinkie pie didn't have to stay here any longer. Rarity saved her. "Oh no! I just remembered that I'm working on that new line of dresses for that fashion magazine, and I'm SO behind on my work! I'm sorry girls, but I have to go." Rarity said while stomping her hooves on the ground. Then, she rushed out of the door. "Well every pony, I think I'm going to cut this social short." Every pony departed and the first was Pinkie pie.
Pinkie pie calmed down now that she was away from her other friends. She now was focused on making cupcakes. She reached in the fridge and pulled out her secret ingredient, this time it was Rainbow Dash's meat. She put a little bit of the meat and cake mix in the cupcake then stuck the tray in the oven. While the cupcakes were baking, Pinkie pie saw a blue flash fly past her. The pink mare simply dismissed it as her imagination. But then she remembered Rainbow Dash's words: "I'll be back at the bakery tonight, and I'm going to have a talk with you." Dash's words echoed in Pinkie's mind while looking at the cupcakes in the oven.
A blue figure appeared in front of Pinkie pie. Sure enough, Rainbow Dash was back, Just like she said. "How could you Pinkie pie! I was your best friend! Now, I want answers on why you did this!" Dash said angrily. "If I do Dashie, will you please leave me alone?" Pinkie pie said with a hint of fear. "That one is a maybe." Replied Dash. "Okay fine! I don't know what happened. One day, there were these voices in my head telling me to do what I did to you and dozens of other ponies. The voice told me that I wasn't hurting any pony, and I believed it!" Pinkie told Dash. "I see. Now, I'll use this information to tell to the police ponies!" Dash screamed.
"Dash, only I can see you." Replied Pinkie pie, giggling slightly. "Oh really, pretty soon, every pony will be able to see me." Pinkie pie looked confused. "You'll see." Then, Dash disappeared, leaving Pinkie pie alone once again. But the last thing dash said: "Pretty soon, every pony will be able to see me." still confused Pinkie, and left her wondering. The only thing she could do, is wait for another visit.
It was nearly ten o'clock and Pinkie pie was getting tired, and tired of waiting for Rainbow Dash. Pinkie pie HATED waiting. So, she decided to go up into her room, and go to sleep. The pink pony walked up the wooden stairs, walked into her cupcake decorated room, then jumped on her bed and drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
Pinkie awoke from her slumber when she heard clattering downstairs. She figured it was Mr or Mrs Cake and went back to sleep. But she couldn't fall back asleep, the noises continued right beneath her hooves. So, she decided she would go back downstairs, see who it was, then go back to bed.
Pinkie pie crawled out of bed and walked sleepily to her bedroom door. She pushed it open gently, then tiptoed down the steps. She peeked her head into the living room. Nothing there. She then checked the bathroom and dining room. Nothing there either. There was only one place left to look. The kitchen. Pinkie walked slowly through the doors of the kitchen. She nearly screamed at what she saw. The cupcakes she made out of Rainbow Dash were destroyed, in pieces, and they littered the ground, and the ghost of Rainbow Dash was standing there.
"No! Dashie, why!" Pinkie pie said, careful to keep her voice down. "Its because you did this to me! I don't want any pony eating these. Its bad enough you killed me, but now you use my meat for cupcakes! And don't call me Dashie! Only my friends can call me that!" Pinkie pie was in fear, before Dash had a chance to stop her, she ran out the door of the bakery.
Dash seemed aggriavated. She wanted to take over Pinkie's body. "What if she goes insane and captures one of my friends?" Rainbow Dash decided she would follow the pink one, and make sure to put a stop to this. She went out the door, leaving Mrs and Mr Cake to figure the mess out their selves. Dash scanned the area for Pinkie pie, but she didn't see her anywhere. Maybe she went outside of Ponyville. Dash knew Pinkie had lived there when she was a filly, but knew she didn't have a very good life. Dash suddenly had a question: "Is that why she went all crazy? Reflecting on her past life on the rock farm?" But there was no time for questions. When she reached the rock farm, it looked lonely, deserted. Pinkie pie's hair was strait as could be, and she was pushing a rock. Nopony was there but the pink mare, or pink MURDERER.
"Pinkie pie!" Dash spoke. The pink pony looked up. All fear from her ghost friend had left her, now the maniac grin on her face was back. "I'm not afraid of you Dashie." Pinkie spoke with a eerily soft tone. "I said don't call me that!" Screamed Dash. "I can do whatever I want!" Pinkie screamed back. The pink mare had had enough of hanging around. She trotted back into Ponyville. Dash knew she had to follow her.
Pinkie pie ran into the bakery, and into the bathroom to poof her hair backup. She needed another batch of cupcakes for what Dash had done to the rainbow ones. Her friends couldn't see her with straight hair, it would probably freak them out. But she almost forgot! She needed to draw a number. She went downstairs into the basement and drew a number from a hat. "Number 42, Twilight Sparkle, unicorn." Pinkie mused to herself. "Good! I knew this one would come!" Pinkie said excitedly bouncing around. "I'll just have to wait until early in the morning." She went up out of the basement, up the next flight of stairs, into her bedroom, and fell asleep once again.
The bright morning sunlight flooded the room. Pinkie opening her eyes slowly. She looked at her clock. 6:00 AM, it read. "Perfect." Pinkie pie got out of bed and cleaned up the kitchen, then got out a poisoned cupcake from the fridge. It was a purpleish pink color at the bottom, with dark purple frosting at the top. It was Berry Punch's cupcake. She carefully placed it on a plate, and left a note for the cakes not to eat it, and that it was for Twilight Sparkle. Pinkie went out the door and trotted through the town, only a few ponies awake, the others asleep. Pinkie pie reached the library and knocked on the door. A purple hoof opened it, and a unicorn appeared in the doorway.
"Oh, hi Pinkie pie. What are you doing here so early in the morning?" Twilight said with a yawn. "It's SUPER important Twilight! A new line of cupcakes just came out, and we need a taste tester." Pinkie explained. "Oh! Why I would love to, after all, your cupcakes ARE the best! Do I have to come over right now?" "Yes! Yes! Right now! It's an emergency." The two mares walked out the door and to the bakery.
When they arrived, The cakes were still asleep, they slept for so long on Saturdays. "Is that cupcake for me?" Twilight said pointing at the purple pink pastry with a hoof. "It sure is! I saved this one JUST for you!" Pinkie answered. Twilight shrugged, picked it up and took a bite. It was delicious, she couldn't help taking another bite. Before she knew it, she had eaten the whole cupcake. But suddenly, she felt dizzy. "P-pinkie pie? I--." She was cut off, and she collapsed to the ground.
Pinkie pie dragged her friend into the basement, and locked the trap door. Pinkie strapped the unicorn on the table, and stuck a syringe in her chest. Twilight awoke with a jolt. "P-Pinkie pie? W-Whats going on?" "A party! This is how I make cupcakes." Pinkie took a scalpel and got to work on Twilight's cutie mark. The unicorn screamed in pain. The ghost Rainbow Dash appeared upstairs. "Hm? Wheres Pinkie pie?" Bu then she heard the screams from downstairs. She raced down the steps under the trap door. She wasn't too late. She saved Twilight Sparkle by possesing Pinkie pie. She made her drop the scalpel. Dash looked on the table, there was some thread and a needle, maybe used for sewing ponies mouths shut. Dash shuddered at the thought, and picked it up. She sewed the cutie mark back on. "P-Pinkie? Why?" "I'm no longer Pinkie pie. This is Dash inside Pinkie's body, that's what made her drop the scalpel, she was going to do horrible things to you!" "Like what?" Dash flipped the light switch on. Twilight gasped. "That's not the worst part." She carried over the stuffed doll of herself. Twilight screamed. "Don't worry, I'll untie you. I know where Pinkie keeps the camera. We can take the evidence to Princess Celestia. Twilight was untied, and they went upstairs into Pinkie's bedroom. They were careful not to wake Mr. and Mrs. Cake.
They grabbed the camera and went back downstairs. They took pictures of everything, and went to inform every pony.
.
Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack and Pinkie pie were on there way to Canterlot in the royal flying carriage. All of Pinkie's friends looked at her with pure hatred in their eyes. Pinkie didn't talk much, Rainbow Dash was still in Pinkie's body. But on the inside, the trapped mare was screaming.
Dash started to feel bad. But then she went over her memories. She went to Sugar Cube corner thinking her and Pinkie pie were going to make some regular old cupcakes. But then this happened to her. She remembered her so called 'friends' maniac smile, and the fires of hell and hatred burning in the blue orbs of the pink ones eyes, as she slowly killed and tortured Dash. It made it more suffering for the cyan peagusus with all the horrible jokes. Like I think I'm gonna WING IT now, Dashie, These jokes are getting bladder, and so on. Dash no longer felt any regret for doing this to Pinkie pie; It was for her own good, and to protect the citizens of Ponyville.
"Ah can't beileve this Pinkie pie! Ah thought Rainbow Dash and all of us were your friends, Ah thought everypony was your friend!" Applejack piped up, breaking the silence. Dash's ghost just had The pink mare sit there in the cage she was placed in. "Me too! you should never betray your friends!" for once Fluttershy actually spoke with a confident tone of voice. They were nearly to the royal palace now, where they would see Princess Celestia.
Everypony was silent the rest of the way, until the carriage landed in front of the palace. The massive building appeared before the group. The white alicorn, celestia was waiting at the gate, her mane flowing and glistening with magic, matching her tail. Her eyes revealed surprise, hate and sadness all at once. The group of ponies approached, and for once, not one of them bowed, for this was a time of crisis.
"I can't believe this sweet pink baker, would bake PONIES in to cupcakes. I understand that all of us are very upset." The alicorn princess said with no greeting. Dash decided to leave Pinkie pie's body, she decided Pinkie needed to suffer more, like she did, there was no point if she couldn't talk.
Pinkie pie gasped, and began to talk, "Princess! I know what I've done is wrong, but I can change! Also, Rainbow Dash's ghost is RIGHT THERE! Can't any pony see her?" All of her friends looked at her in surprise, all except the Princess. Her horn glowed, and then an explosion of white magical light. It was a spell so she could see the ghost Rainbow Dash. Celestia gasped in horror at the sight. Dash's wings gone, scars and cuts, and all organs removed from her empty chest cavity.
"This is the first time in a long while murder has happened, but I never expected it to be this bad! I as a princess, If this ever happens, It is my duty to put Pinkie pie to death. I'm sorry." All of them gasped in horror and surprise. "But princess! Isn't there any other way?" Pleaded Twilight sparkle. "My faithful student, I know magic is very powerful, but no amount of it can change a murderers mind, and it would be too risky to keep her locked up. After Pinkie is dead, Rainbow Dash can rest in peace." Celestia answered.
All the friends seemed to agree. "Guards! Get this mare into the excile room." The Princess's guards came at once and took Pinkie pie away. "Oh...my...I-I cant believe this is happening..." Fluttershy stammered. "I agree." Said a devastated Rarity. They all went in to follow the guards to say good by to their old friend.
They arrived in a room with a table with restraints, much like the one Pinkie pie had in her basement, which made the ghost Dash shudder. There was a smaller table next to it with needles filled with a white liquid, supposedly poison. The guards put Pinkie pie onto the table and strapped her down. "You have a half an hour with your friends, then we'll be back." said one of the guards. Then, they pair of them walked out, leaving them alone.
There was silence for a moment, until Fluttershy said something. "Oh, Pinkie pie. I don't know what it's gonna be like without you. If only we could say sorry like the other times." The yellow peuagusus started to sob. "I'll miss you P-Pinkie pie. Good by." Stammered Twilight Sparkle, choking back tears. "Remember that I'll always forgive you."
"Ah am upset with you Pinkie pie. But a real friend would forgive you. Ah think I just need some time though." Applejack said after the purple unicorn had trotted away. "Pinkie pie, I must be honest with you. Baking ponies into cupcakes is surly disgusting, but your my friend. But like Applejack, I need some time." Rarity said, and walked slowly away to where the others were, her styled mane bouncing a little.
The ghost Rainbow Dash saw all of her other friends say their good by's to their pink friend. She decided she would start to try to forgive Pinkie pie too. The pink mare struggled on the table, which brought back the horrible memories to Dash of herself trying to get free of the table in the basement of Sugar Cube Corner. Dash then also decided, she would try to forget these bad memories along with forgiveness. She knew it would be hard, but not impossible. After each one of the four remaining elements of harmony exited the room, two guards came in, and they all watched through a window.
They both looked the same, white peagasi with matching uniforms. One of them picked up a syringe. All Pinkie pie's friends could do was watch in sheer horror as the guard stuck the needle in pinkie's arm. Pinkie let out a low whimper. Her blue orbs of eyes did not reveal any anger. Only sadness and regret. The guard looked down at her with eyes that revealed no emotion, no forgiveness, and no love. He seemed as though he didn't care if this mare died. Pinkie pie felt as though she couldn't blame him. She had murdered dozens of ponies, and he could have been her next batch for all she knew.
Then her eyes darted over to her friends. Fluttershy was crying, as well as Rarity. Applejack and Twilight sparkle were choking their tears back, a couple of them streaming down their checks. Twilight said something. Pinkie pie couldn't hear her well, but she read her lips that said "Good by." She smiled in return. There was only a few minutes left until Pinkie pie would die. She could feel herself getting weaker by the minute. Then, everything started to go black. The guards above her started to look blurry and fade. Then, She closed her eyes. Forever.
Her friends watching from the window gasped. "Well.... I....I guess Its over." Stammered Fluttershy. The guards walked out of the room. They told Pinkie's friends they were going to inform Princess Celestia. A few moments later, Celestia came walking down the long hall, her pure white hooves making a clicking sound. "I was informed that Pinkie pie has been killed. I'm sorry there was no other way. Two elements of harmony are dead, so Luna and I might have to go back to wielding the elements. Now, No pony will ever speak of this day again." Applejack, Rarity, Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy bowed and nodded their heads.
Pinkie pie was no more, the baker would no longer hurt any pony in all of Equestria. Rainbow Dash learned to forgive Pinkie pie, and could finally rest in peace.
THE END
