My own take on them meeting, from Gummy's point of view.

A shorter story of how Gummy met Pinkie Pie, from former's point of view. There are a lot of these fan stories so I really hope that I'm not stepping on anyone else's story. And yes... it really IS meant to be short so please do not heckle me in the comments on that.

This starts about one or two years before Season 1 and continues into after that.

Author's Note

I really did intend for the GMPP story to be as short as it was..... but the thing would not let me submit it with only 420 words. Apparently lines of dots do not count as words! :rainbowwild: So here i am, trying to come up with a bonus chapter of some kind to make up the silly numbers just so i can publish the previous chapter! I'm terrible at trying to write Pinkie Pie so it's gonna stay from Gummy's side :twilightsheepish:

Bonus Chapter

[Two weeks after PP]

My new name is Gummy.
....
I am a teeth-less alligator.
....
I live with my new best friend, Pinkie Pie.
....
I learned her name quite quickly after she found me at the edge of the forest that day.
...
.........
...
........
...
I learned a lot about her in the short time i've been here. She's friends with everypony in Ponyville (the town next to the forest). But she's got a core group of friends.
...
Unicorn... Rarity has a cat who is totally spoiled.
Earth Pony.... Applejack has a dog whom worships the ground that pony walks on.
Pegasus.... Rainbow Dash.... no pets but that's ok because she's awesome when she flies.
Pegasus... Fluttershy... too many pets to count but Angel Bunny seems to be her favorite. She doted on me when she first met me.... said it was sad I didn't have teeth.
...
........
...
........
...
.......
...
.......
...
......
...
I don't need teeth. Pinkie loves me just the way I am. And I don't think the Cakes would let her keep me if I did have teeth.....
....
She feeds me cupcakes, slices of cake, and whole bunch of stuff. I eat them whole.... just like the fish in the forest.... I am partial to anything mashed.... and she lets me lick the mixing bowls clean before washing them....
...
.......
...
.......
...
.......
...
I love the bubble baths.
....
They're always warm.
....
And the bubbles are fun because when I snap my mouth on them, they pop!
...
.......
...
........
...
Balloons will do that sometimes but not always.
.....
Found that out at my "Welcome to Ponyville" party Pinkie held for me the day she found me.
...
She gave me a bath so I would look my best and then she gave me balloons to play with. That's the party that I met those core friends of Pinkie. Fluttershy offered to pet-sit anytime Pinkie had to go out of town.
...
I could not imagine what would take Pinkie away but accepted the offer anyway.... Fluttershy acknowledged Pinkie's approval but didn't notice my double blink.
....
I was ok with that. Only Pinkie seemed to understand my blinks. "Gummy thanks you too!" she had said, lifting me up to Fluttershy's eye level causing the pegasus to "Eeep!" with fright.
...
.........
...
I could not imagine that pegasus surviving a night in the forest.
....
Especially with my mom still there.
....
.........
....
.........
...
.........
....
........
....
........
...
Since coming to live with Pinkie, I find myself contemplating on new things. And for longer periods of time. I'm beginning to think that she's rubbing off on me.
...

The End.... Again

Bonus Chapter 2

[Undetermined amount of time later]

My name is still Gummy.
....
I still live with Pinkie Pie.
....
The days have started to blur together.
...
.......
....
The Summer Sun Celebration had come and gone. Pinkie was gone all night.
.....
When she got back, she told me all about the Elements of Harmony and the return of Princess Luna.
.....
Pinkie was happy so I was happy too.
...
.......
...
......
...
I don't know how much longer it was until I finally met Twilight Sparkle.
....
Pinkie brought in a very muddy Twilight and put her in the bath tub. I slipped in without Twilight seeing me.
....
Pinkie was talking about her Pinkie Sense. When she said "achy shoulder", I knew she had caught me. When she pulled me out, I wasn't too happy so I tried to gum her. She just laughed, as usual. I don't think Twilight understands me.... not like Pinkie does.

...
......
...
.....
...
When Pinkie got home that night, she told me all about the doozie and how Twilight now believes in Pinkie Sense.
...
.....
...
I knew that she'd believe in the end. Just surprised it took that long.

[More time later...]
....
.........
....
Grand Galaping Gala
....
.......
....
Pinkie hasn't stopped talking about it since she woke up the next morning. Because she came in all exhausted and barely able to crawl into bed.
.......
She slept in her dress.
......
It tasted like confetti and donuts.
....
Apparently things didn't go at all as she planned.
....
But she did get to sing a song so that was ok!
....
She promised to sneak me in the next time she gets an invite.
....
........
....
Not sure if she'll be invited back.
....
........
....
She hung the dress in her closet without washing it.
....
Because she was very distracted telling me all about it.
....
I climbed up the dress and continued to lick it.
....
It'll be "clean" by the time I'm done with it.

Bonus Chapter 3

[Very short time later]

My name is still Gummy.
...
.....
...
Something strange happened to Pinkie Pie recently.
...
.....
...
She came home at one point all grey. She would not laugh. She hated laughs. She would not even smile! She was really mean. All she did was yell at ponies! It was not at all like her.
...
No matter what I tried, I could not get her back to her pink self. She even tasted different when I tried to bite down on her mane.
...
.....
...
When she locked me out of her room, I knew something was wrong.
...
.....
...
.....
...
When I finally got to a window, I saw the mess that was Ponyville. Buildings and trees floating, chocolate rain falling on the window, the sun & moon raising & falling randomly. I looked over at the clock but it was of no use; the hands kept spinning forwards and backwards.
...
.....
...
I could just barely make out the whispered voices of the Cakes hiding down in the cellar.
...
.....
...
.....
...
Sweet Celestia! I jumped three times my body length into the air when the other girls burst in the door and raced up the stairs. I could hear Pinkie yelling at them, while they giggled. I saw a flash of purple light and then I heard something wonderful...
...
I heard my Pinkie Pie laugh. My heart lifted when I heard her laugh and giggle. And this was HER giggle! Her cheerful, enthusiastic laughter. My sweet Pinkie was back and her friends helped her!
...
....
...
She gave me a hug on her way down and out the door... not once did she stop laughing and giggling about being turned grey. So much so that she could not even walk.
...
Twilight seemed like she was in a hurry so Applejack hitched herself to a spare wagon kept behind Sugarcube Corner for emergencies and simply carted Pinkie Pie away.
...
....
...
I was left alone with my thoughts and the Cakes' whispering.

[Hour or two later]

My Pinkie came home late.
...
.....
...
She said she helped her friends defeat something called a "Discord" and return Ponyville to normal.
...
I saw the magic rainbow when it fixed the town. I even watched it repair the front door that Twilight broke coming in.
...
.....
...
Didn't care too much about the magic. I was just glad to have my Pinkie Pie back.

The End... ?

Author's Note

If my fans want more, I'll write more but otherwise this should be the last of this book.

One And Only Chapter

Author's Note

Story is to be read in a deep, slow male voice... much like the voice they used in that Slice of Life episode.

One And Only Chapter

My name is Gummer.
...
I was hatched in what the ponies call the Everfree Forest.
...
I was the only one of the clutch that was born without teeth.
...
Hence my name.
...
.......
...
........
...
........
...
.........
...
All alligators are supposed to be born with teeth.
...
But I was not.
...
Something about chaos magic in the forest.
...
........
...
........
...
........
...
........
...
Mom didn't know what to do with me.
...
I managed to get by by eating fish whole. She didn't like that.
.....
.....
After about a season, I left.
...
........
...
........
...
.........
...
.........
...
.........
...
Made my way through the forest.
....
All alone.
.....
.....
.....
Walked around rocks.
...
Slipped under tree roots.
...
Avoided the patch of poison joke.
...
Relaxed in any puddle I came across.
...
.........
...
.........
...
.........
...
One day, I saw bright day light coming from ahead of me.
.......
The end of the forest.
........
....
.......
And there....
....
There stood the most beautiful creature I had ever seen...
....
(Besides my mom, of course.)
...
.........
...
.........
...
She was pink.
....
She was very pink.
....
She was very, VERY pink!
....
I was in love.
...
.........
...
.........
...
.........
...
I watched from the shadows as she knelt down.
....
Watched as she smelled some flowers.
....
Watched as she smiled with delight.
....
I fell further in love.
...
.........
...
.........
...
I moved very slowly towards her.
....
I did not want to scare her off.
....
Not like my mom can do.
...
........
...
........
...
Moving ever so slowly, I was afraid she might leave before finding me.
....
But she did see me.
....
She wanted to come closer but she would not enter the forest.
....
So I went to her.
...
.......
...
......
...
Very slowly.
...
........
...
........
...
........
...
Very, very slowly.
...
........
...
........
...
.........
...
I was within sniffing distance of her face.
....
She smelled sweet.
...
.......
...
.......
...
Her eyes widened to an impossible size.
....
I wondered if the chaos magic affected her too.
.....
She finally spoke.
"OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH!!!! A TEENY TINY BABY ALLIGATOR! youaresodarncuteiwanttotakeyouhomewithmeisthatok? OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH!!!!"
...
..........
...
..........
...
I blinked very slowly, one eye at a time.
....
She squealed with delight and picked me up in her hooves.
"OH YOU ARE SO ADORABLE! And oh my! You have no teeth! I think I'm gonna call you Gummy!"
....
It was close enough to my real name, I did not argue the point.
...
..........
...
..........
...
..........
...
..........
...
As she held me, I felt so warm inside.
.....
Being cold-blooded, that's an achievement.
...
...........
...
...........
...
She placed me up on her back and started skipping away from the forest.
.....
One eye took one last look at the forest, blinked and turned back.
...
..........
...
..........
...
.........
...
Both focused on the fluffy pink made in front of me.
....
It looked yummy so I chomped down on the mane.
....
Despite not having teeth, I held on.
....
The mane tasted sweet.
...
.........
...
.........
...
"La la la la la!" sang the pony who was my new best friend.

The End
