Twilights work on a de-ageing spell backfires and now the Mane 6's closest friend may never return to her rightful age

Twilight, The Princess of Friendship, is trying out the de-ageing spell that Trixie tried out, and it backfired, turning Pinkie Pie back into a filly!

With the odds of Pinkie turning back to an adult against them, The Mane 6 decide to raise Pinkie Pie as their own, which proves to be quite difficult, especially as the changelings are invading once again. . . .

A Horrible Accident

"Ah you sure about this Sugarcube?" Apple Jack asked as Twilight paced around, levitating a book in front of her.

It had been two weeks since The Mane 6 beat the snot out of Tirek, as Rainbow Dash so eloquently put it, and Twilight wanted to try one of the spells that Trixie had done with The Alicorn Amulet, the de-ageing spell. She had bought her friends down here for two reasons. One, she got her most powerful magic from friendship so Twilight thought that by them being there, it could help make her magic stronger. The second reason was simple: Test Subjects.

"I am sure" Twilight, who had now put the book down and faced her friends, insisted. She glanced between her five closest friends, trying to decide on who to pick. Not Fluttershy or Apple Jack, the ponies had to be a hundred percent willing to let Twilight do whatever she wanted to do to them. Wait, count out Rainbow Dash as well, she didn't look at all comfortable. And that only left Rarity and Pinkie Pie. Rarity was willing but Twilight knew that somehow Sweetie Belle would find out and tease her sister with it for weeks. Seriously, Sweetie Belle is part ninja, Twilight thought.

That only left Pinkie Pie. She was as important as the others, even more important, she kept Ponyville happy, but if she got turned into a foal, she could continue to do that if something went wrong. She was both willing and comfortable to be changed in whatever way Twilight pleased. Slightly touched, Twilight swallowed "Pinkie Pie, please step forward."

Pinkie Pie did a little squeal and bounced forwards. "OhMyGosh! ThisIsSoExciting! IHaveNeverBeenSoExcited! WellExceptForWhenYou MovedToPonyvilleButIMeanReally! WhoCanTopThat?!" Twilight placed a hoof over Pinkies mouth.

"I am going to let go now, and I need you to concentrate, okay" Twilight said slowly. Pinkie nodded and sat down, curling her poofy mane around her. Twilights horn started to glow. Pinkie Pie was raised up into the air, and,similar to the way Flutterbat had been turned into Fluttershy, a light purple light surrounded Pinkie,blocking her off from view. Very slowly, the light became light pink, as did the magic around Twilight's horn.

"Whats happening?" asked Fluttershy, but Twilight didn't answer. She was too busy staring intently at the now light pink, swirling glow. Then the twirling mass exploded.

Anypony outside Twilight's Castle would see a bright pink,blinding flash of light appear through the windows for a split second, before vanishing.

When Twilight came to, she found the bodies of her best friends thrown across the floor. Panicking, she teleported to her hooves. "Is everypony okay?" she asked frantically.

"We're good, but what happened?" Rainbow stood up,along with the others.

"My spell somehow backfired, something to do with Pinkies aura- Pinkie" Twilight looked around the room. "Where is she?!"

"Everyone split up and search"ordered Apple Jack and they all began to search the giant room.

"Oh my . . . " murmured Rarity,backing away from a shadowy corner, wide eyed.

"Rarity, whats wrong?" asked Fluttershy coming over to see.
own tail
"Twilight you need to see this, it's simply darling!" cried Rarity, as she and Fluttershy stood there staring at the corner. Twilight,Rainbow Dash and Apple Jack came over to see what all the fuss was about.

In the corner, a young filly with a light pink coat and a dark poofy mane sat. She seemed to be sucking on her own tail. Seeing the strange ponies, the filly slowly inched backwards slightly.

"I can't believe it!" Twilight squealed "I did it! I actually did it! YAHOOOOO!" Realizing that her best friends were staring at her, Twilight blushed and cleared her throat "sorry" she muttured.

"Twilight it's great you managed to do what you did but can you turn Pinkie back now?" asked Rarity. Twilight sighed and did the spell once again. However this time there was no flash of light, and when Pinkie was put on the ground, she was still a filly.

"Why didn't it work?" wondered Fluttershy,eyes round with worry.

"Try it again, Twi" urged Rainbow Dash.

Twilight tried again. And again. And again. But every time she tried, Pinkie always ended up being the same age.

"Twilight, whats going on?" Rainbow asked, her voice showing deep concern for her pranking buddy.

"That flash of light was never meant to happen. Somehow, Pinkies aura was reversed."

"Meaning what exactly?" asked A.J

"It means that Pinkie is a filly" Twilight swallowed "and we can't change her back."

Author's Note

I accidently stumbled onto Pinkie Pie as a foal in images and I just died! Seriously,look it up, evn if you hate Pinkie Pie, you have to admit that it is cute. So I started a group Baby Pinkie Pie and created this story for it. Join if you are interested!

Taking The Responsibility

Taking The Responsibility

It was quiet for a few seconds, and then, when the Mane 6 found their voices,Twilight nearly went deaf.

"Why is she stuck like this!?" Shrieked Rarity.

Twilight sighed. "An aura is the manifestation of you. The color of the aura says what you are like and how old you are. To do the spell, you have to reverse the aura of that pony. However Pinkies aura is so energized, that when I tried to reverse it, it got stuck midway,it's kind of like pushing a giant boulder down a steep mountain and to be suspected to push it all the way back up to the top with no magic or wings, you can't. It's physically impossible. Pinkie is stuck like this."

"Can't Luna or Celestia fix this?" asked Fluttershy.

Twilight shook her head. "I asked them about this before we started. They told me that the only pony that can reverse it is me."

"So what do we do now?" asked Rarity looking around. "If I remember correctly, Maud,Limestone and Marble all are going on some kind of Rock Convention, we can't just call them back, and the rock farm well..." she trailed off,but the others got her meaning.

"Why don't... Why don't we just raise her?" asked Fluttershy.

The Mane 6 all turned and stared at her. "What?" asked Rainbow Dash, tilting her head.

"Well it's our fault, we have to accept responsibility"pointed out Fluttershy.

Twilight sighed "Fluttershy's right. It is our responsibility to look after Pinkie Pie."

"But I'm not good with foals" Rainbow Dash panicked.

Apple Jack frowned "that's not true. Look at you and Scootaloo. She adores you."

"Yeah, but Scootaloo's almost fully grown and potty trained" Rainbow Dash shuddered.

"Oh you'll be fine" Twilight glanced behind her "Spike, can you please get the book "Responsible Parenting For Responsible Ponies?" she asked casually.

* * * * *

"Okay,so here is how this is going to work. Monday to Saturday, Pinkie Pie lives in the castle, I have already ordered a crib and some other necessities. Every Sunday, she comes home with one of us. I have a daily planner for that. Pinkie Pie is too young for school, but we should all take part in her education. Fluttershy and Apple Jack, you are nature. Rarity, you're etiquette. Rainbow Dash, your going to teach Pinkie Pie about flying, Daring Do and The Wonderbolts." Rainbow Dash brightened at that. "And I will teach her the rest" finished Twilight.

"Who are you?" a voice asked, and everypony, and dragon, froze. Pinkie Pie was at Rainbow Dash's hooves, staring up at her.

"Oh... I'm Rainbow Dash" Rainbow introduced herself awkwardly. Pinkie nodded and curled her fluffy tail around her.

"And they are" she asked in a squeaky voice.

"I'm Twilight Sparkle." Twilight unwound her wings. Pinkies eyes went round.

"Ah'm Apple Jack" Apple Jack crossed one leg over the other and smiled at Pinkie Pie.

"I am Rarity, delighted to meet you" Rarity dipped her head slightly. Pinkie Pie copied,only to end up flat on her face.

"I'm Fluttershy"murmured Fluttershy. Pinkie frowned, then cleaned out her ears. "Fluttershy" she said, louder this time.

"Oh, okay" Pinkie looked around "where is Maud? And Marble? And Whimestone? Wait- Mommy? Daddy? MOMMY! DADDY!" Pinkie jumped to her feet and looked around wildly, little tail straight out.

"Ssh, it's okay. Your parents are out on a trip with your sisters and we're being hired as your" Twilight paused "babysitter's." Pinkie nodded still suspicious, then curled up into a ball, using her tail as a pillow.

I HAVE DIED OF CUTENESS

Nightmares

"Why did you tell her that?" hissed Rainbow Dash to Twilight, who shrugged helplessly.

"What could I say? That she was our best-friend- turned-foal?" Snapped Twilight.

"Uh.. girls" said Fluttershy,looking past them.

"Seriously though? Babysitting? That's what you came up with?"

"Girls...."

Twilight ground her teeth together. "Not now Fluttershy" she said "we have to figure out a way to explain to Pinkie Pie why her parents aren't going to be around."

"I know but . . ."

"I got it!" Rainbow Dash hoof bumped the air. "We just say that after she got her cutie mark, Pinkie Pie moved to Ponyville, but after an accident, she forgot everything!" She thumped herself on the chest. "Genius if I do say so myself, which I do."

"GIRLS!!!" Fluttershy shouted, glaring at her friends.

They all turned to her. Without saying anything else, Fluttershy pointed to where Pinkie was asleep. She seemed to be moaning and kept twisting around like she was trying to get comfortable. After a few seconds, she woke up screaming, and jumped into the mane of the nearest pony, Twilight.

Pinkie was breathing hard, and clutching Twilight's mane like it was her saving grace. Twilight wasn't really sure what to say or do, but luckily, Fluttershy took charge.

She grabbed Pinkie Pie and put her on her back, then raced out of the room. Confused, her friends followed her, only to find her halfway singing 'hush now, quiet now' to an already sleepy Pinkie. After Pinkie nodded off, Fluttershy turned to her friends. "So . . . . you were saying Rainbow Dash?"

Hey guys! Still in recovery and all that! Luckily my twin sister, Reading4HalfMyLife, managed to smuggle in our computer. I also discovered that while I was getting treated, she began writing her own story, and I really recommend you try it out! Also, she is doing an OC competition for her profile picture, but not everyone's aware of that because she likes to write in binary, so if your interested, just link her the photo

Bath Time Par.1

Two days. Two days of Pinkie Pie being stuck as a filly. Twilight had changed an empty room in the castle to a small nursery, complete with a Apple Family Crib, a small playpen filled with toys, a pink highchair and the walls and floor were covered with a thick pink carpet.

The Mane 6 walked in to find their closest friend playing with her pet alligator. When they first brought him to her, the reaction had been surprising . . . .

X X X X

Pinkie Pie! We have something for you!" Rainbow Dash called, holding out her hoof, which Gummy was sucking onto.

The next thing Rainbow knew, she was being slammed into the carpeted wall.

Shaking her head, Rainbow's eyes widened. Pinkie Pie was breathing furiously, and standing protectively in front of Gummy, who latched himself onto her cotton candy tail.

Later, Apple Jack explained something. "Unicorn foals magic may come in powerful spurts, and Pegasus foals are total nightmares when they learn how to fly, but it's Earth Ponies that you really have to look out for."

"Apple Jack, did Pinkie Pie knock you on the head or something?" Rainbow asked, confused.

Apple Jack bristled at this. "Nah, it's true" she retorted, tail swishing in annoyance.

"But how darling?" Rarity wondered.

Apple Jack sat back on her haunches. "Well, you know how every breed of pony has magic that it lets out in different ways?" The others nodded.

"Unicorn foals have random spurts of magic and Pegasus foals can sometimes fly at random moments. But Earth Ponies are different. Our abilities are like superpowers,kind" ignoring Rainbow Dash's disbelieving snort, Apple Jack pressed on. "Earth Ponies foals don't have control over their 'powers', which means that Pinkie Pie is extremely strong and agile. Plus theirs her own powers . . . ."

"What do you mean 'her own powers?'" Twilight interrupted,looking confused.

"All Earth Ponies are strong and agile, but on top of that, they also have their own ability. Mine is making apples and other fruits and vegetables grow at extraordinary rates, Maud Pie's would probably be strength. But Pinkie Pie,well, she is extremely fast, and the is able to do things no other pony can, not even Discord. So yeah, don't anger the pink menace."

"Hey Pinkie Pie!" Twilight said cheerfully as she entered with her friends.

"Hewo "The pink foal didn't look up from her alligator.

Rarity began to become aware of a horrible smell. Holding her muzzle, she turned to her friends "I think the little darling needs a bath" she recommended in a strangled voice.

"Okay Pinkie" Rainbow took a step forwards "bath time!"

Pinkie's light blue eyes widened, then she vanished without a single word. "Oh boy" Apple Jack said. The others nodded.
