And So It Begins

In a far off land known as Equestria, there's a small town known as Ponyville. This town is home to Equestria’s greatest heroes . These heroes have saved Equestria time and time again. Among these heroes is an energetic mare known as Pinkie Pie. She’s often seen as the most energetic of the heroes, as well as the most random; but, she is not as happy and cheerful as she has led many to believe, for she bears a dark secret within her heart.

10 years ago…

“ Are you sure about this Pinkie? Because the description of what you're looking for sounds a lot like the ancient amulet of legend that was hidden away in the Everfree forest long ago.”

The pink mare nodded to her guide before responding.

“ Of course i'm sure, silly! Or at least i'm pretty sure?” she thought for a moment longer before facehoofing and responding, “ Oh great, now i'm confused.”

There was a long pause before the pink mare said, “Soooo, can you take me, please, please, PLEASE!?”

“Fine, i'll take you, but you have to promise me you won't tell anypony, OK!?”

“Okie dokie artichokie!” ,the mare said cheerfully before zipping off into the forest while yelling out behind her, “Come on, let's go slow poke,

we've got no time to lose!” Before she zipped out of sight.
“Hey, wait for me! Some of us don't have super pony speed and energy you know!” The guide yelled out before racing after the pink mare. Several hours later, as Celestia was starting to lower the sun, and Luna was raising the the moon, the duo had arrived at thier destination. Laying before the two was a stone temple that seemed to be falling apart. The temple itself was well over 80 feet tall and gave off the vibe of, ‘all who enter shall perish!’

“This is as far as i can take you i'm afraid.” The guide came to a stop at the entrance and said to the pink mare, “The amulet of which you seek is said to lie in the heart of this temple.” with that, the guide turned around and raced back down the path the two had followed to get to the

temple.
“Well I guess I better hurry so i can get back to town before midnight.” Said the pink mare as she raced into the temple. As the mare raced down the many corridors, she never realized the many traps that went off behind her. After several near encounters with death that the mare never realized, she finally arrived in a large chamber.

The room was lit by a ray of moonlight coming from a small hole in the roof. Within the middle of the room was a tall staircase leading up to a small thin pole with a thin branch. As the mare ran up the stairs and arrived at the top, she saw that, hanging from the branch,was small necklace made of gold thread, with a blood red ruby hanging from it. The mare's eyes grew wide as she walked closer. The necklace seemed to speak to

her with a voice That was strangely similar to her own.

“Come closer you foolish little pony, come closer, so I may finally have a host.” The mare’s body would no longer listen to her brain as it walked closer.

“Stop. I said STOP! Listen body! I command you to LISTEN!” her brain screamed, but it was to no avail as her body finally arrived in front of the necklace.

“Now, you foolish mare, put on the necklace and release me from my prison!” The mare's body obeyed the command completely, ignoring the mares brain screaming at it to stop.
Time slowed as the mare grabbed the necklace and slid it around her neck. All seemed to go silent in the world as if to say:

“ SOMETHING BIG IS COMING!” before it hit the mare like a hurricane as a blazing heat threw the mares mind from her body. The mare opened her eyes to see an image that she knew would haunt her for the rest of her days. She watched in pure horror as her own body stood up before her, or at least some-pony that looked like her. The mare had a pink flank and a pink mane AS WELL as her cutie mark! The only obvious differences were that the new mare had a long straight mane that was darker than the other pink mares, as well as a slightly darker flank. The mare looked up and smiled.

“Well, I give you the greatest of thank yous for freeing me from that horrid prison around your neck.” The pink mare watched the new mare as a thought came into her head.

“So this is your prison?” The mare said holding up the necklace. The other pink mare was about to respond, when the original mare yelled out, “ Well then let me return you to where you belong!” the mare tore off the necklace as the other mares eyes went wide. She then threw the necklace

directly at the new mare. The mare yelled out in fury as the necklace began to suck her back in.
“I'll make you pay! I shall haunt you for the rest of your days! You shall NEVER be safe!” With those last words, she was sucked completely into the

necklace. The pink mare collapsed in sobs of true terror as she whispered.
“What have I done? Oh Pinkie what have you released?” as she fell into a fitful sleep.

Present Day...

Pinkies eyes flew open as she rolled out of bed. She rubbed the sleep out of her eyes as she got ready for the day. Once ready for the day, pinkie grabbed a necklace with a crimson ruby on the front off the table as she walked out of her house. A few moments later, a voice in her head greeted her with it's usual tone that practically screamed, ‘I am insane!’

" Its about time you awoke!" the voice yelled in Pinkie's head.

"Oh, shut up pinkamena!" Pinkie yelled back in her head as she closed the door behind her and started to walk towards the large castle in the distance.

Just Another Day of Insanity

“ Good morning Ponyville!” Pinkie called out to nopony in particular. The pink mare sported a huge smile a she bounced through the crowded streets of Ponyville, greeting every pony she saw with a warm, “Good morning!” or a, “Hope you have a good day!”

“Why do you have to be so cheerful all the time?” Pinkamena deadpanned. Pinkie simply ignored the comment and kept walking towards the princess of friendships castle that was slowly starting to get bigger in the distance as she got closer.

“You know, Pinkamena ,for a evil alternate ego you act more like an annoying subconscious,” Pinkie pointed out in her mind. “Also why are you so sad and grumpy all the time? I mean really what harm can a simple smile do?” Pinkie continued in a questioning voice, as she arrived at the castle entrance.

“Trust me, smiles are what haunt my dreams, so you can shut it Pinkie.” Pinkamena growled.

“ Well sorry I asked, sir grumpsalot.” replied Pinkie in an annoyed voice.

“Oh well Excuse me. It’s not MY fault that YOU decided to seal me back in this prison that, for Some reason, decided to transport me to the hell that is your mind!” Pinkamena pointed out as Pinkie started walking down the long hallways of Princess Twilight's castle.

Pinkie pie trotted along the hallways as she responded to Pinkamena in her mind, “Actually, now that you mention it, how did you get sealed in this prison in the first pace?” Pinkie waited in silence, but there was no reply. Pinkie was about to ask again but she never got the chance.

Pinkie had been so busy talking to pinkamena that she didn’t notice Twilight walking in front of her, until she ran into her. With a loud crash, the two fell to the floor in a heap of flailing limbs, waving tails, and a set of purple flapping wings .

“Hey watch i- oh hey it’s you pinkie,” Twilight said as she stood up shaking the dust out of her mane. Twilight helped Pinkie up before asking, “ So, Pinkie, what brings you here today?”

“Well, Twilight, I was just taking a walk through Ponyville and decided to stop by to say hello,” Pinkie said before starting to walk down to the main hall of the castle.

“Oh, well that's very nice of you pinkie, and I am glad you came, cause I was wondering if you could help me out with a little something?” Twilight inquired as the two walked down the halls toward the main hall.

“Sure Twi, I can help out, but if you don't mind me asking, what exactly do you need help with? Oh, wait, let me guess! Ummm... monster attack? Wait, no, friendship problem?! Wait n-”

“Pinkie?

“Magic spell gone wron-”

“Pinkie!”

Wait let me guess; ANOTHER evil villain is taking over Equestria for, like, the Five hundredth time?! Wait n-

“PINKIE!”

“Oh, sorry twilight, I forgot you were there,” Pinkie responded flatly before inquiring, “Wait ,what were we talking about again?”

“ Pinkie, I swear to Celestia, your randomness will forever amaze me” Twilight muttered as the duo arrived in the main hall. “So, pinkie, as for the problem I needed help with, recently there have been rumors of a dragon roaming Ponyville by the cloak of night, and I need you to help me get rid of it.”
Twilight announced this problem in a deadpan tone, leaving a very, very, VERY curious Pinkie Pie.

“But why me twilight? Why not one of the others like Rainbow Dash or Applejack? I mean, aren't they more fit for this job?” Pinkie asked in a questionative voice.

“ Well, to answer your question Pinkie, the honest answer is that after asking Princess Celestia, she told me to trust you with this problem, and to tell you to release your, ‘true self’, although I have no idea what she meant, i'm sure you'll figure it out.” And with those final words, the alicorn trotted away till she was out of sight, leaving in her wake a very confused Pinkie Pie.

5 Hours later…

“How could she have known about me? It just doesn't make sense?!” Pinkamena yelled out in her mind before launching into several theories that all crammed in Pinkie's brain. Pinkie didn’t bother responding, for she knew her ego would care nothing for her response.

After several more hours flew past, midnight soon arrived and Pinkie was not about to let her friend down. After careful preparation and planning, Pinkie's mind had created a whopping total of, nada, zip, zero ideas whatsoever. Sigh. Sometimes Pinkie hated her brain.

So the only logical explanation that her mind put out was to turn to her unpleasant alternate ego for help.

“I'm glad you asked pinkie for I have the perfect plan…”

One briefing of a not so great plan later…

“Are you out of your mind!?” Pinkie shouted in her head at her alternate ego.

“Hey, not so loud! My EARS still work you know! Also, no i'm not crazy. Well that's not true. What I mean is, trust me, the plan will work. All you have to do is find the dragon and release me! After that, i'll take care of the rest,” Pinkamena replied with a voice that was deadly serious, yet some how still had a hint of sarcasm.

With that, Pinkie prepared to go find the dragon that was, no doubt, about to rip her to shreds. As it turned out, it wasn't long before Pinkie found the dragon, or it was more like it found her.

Pinkie was ready to give up as she muttered to herself, “Where in Equestria is tha-” she was cut off by a loud puffing noise coming from behind her. Pinkie turned around very slowly, only to come face to face with a towering, emerald green dragon with deep gold eyes and a green tongue that flicked in and out in silence, towering over her with a gaze that said only one thing. She had just found dinner...

Isn't It Great to be Insane?

“Pinkie, i'm going to need you to stay calm and listen to me,” Pinkamena said to Pinkie in her mind as the dragon stared Pinkie down.

“I'm all ears PInkamena,” Pinkie called out in her brain as the dragon took a deep breath, before letting loose a torrent of flame that shot right towards pinkie.

“Listen to me Pinkie, you have to release me NOW!” Pinkie had little to no time to respond as she felt the all too familiar heat wave sweep across her mind.She was then thrust to the back of her brain as Pinkamena took control of her body.

Pinkamena narrowly avoided the blast before calling out in a mocking tone,

“You call that fire breath? You're pathetic excuse for a dragon!” Pinkamena spat out at the dragon. The dragon gave Pinkamena a look that seemed to say in a very confused voice,

“Why aren't you burned to a crisp yet?” The dragon never got a chance to attack again, as Pinkamena rocketed forward with supernatural speed into the dragon's front left leg. The leg broke on impact with a sickening crunch, the dragon then let out a roar of pain and fury.

Deep within her brain Pinkie watched through Pinkamena’s eyes as she leaped into the air, and with strength that is said to only bless earth ponies the mare slammed her hooves down on the dragon's head with another sickening crunch, as she felt the roof of the skull collapse.

Pinkamena let Pinkie re-take control of her body but even after she regained control Pinkie couldn't take her eyes off the horrifying sight before her. The dragon laid on the ground dead with it’s head turned at a sickening angle and it’s soulless eyes staring into PInkie's, as all the joy slowly drained out of existence leaving only one thought in PInkie's head.

“Well that was exciting! I wonder if there's anything else I can kill?” Pinkamena asked in Pinkie's mind. Pinky didn’t answer for she knew Pinkamena wouldn’t care for the answer.

The Morning After…

When Pinkie awoke the next day she got ready as usual, and walked out the door. But, unlike the day before no happy greetings were made which freaked Pinkamena out even more than Pinkies usual attitude did.

“Pinkie what's wrong?” Pinkamena asked in a slightly concerned tone.`

“Nothing” Pinkie said in a sad tone “ it’s just.. Last night something wasn’t right about that dragon.. I mean it just seemed… gone..” The discouraged mare roamed the streets of Ponyville, without another word.

“Pinkamena?” thought Pikie.

“What?” asked the ego in its normal high pitched voice.

“You never answered my question, and I want an answer! How exactly did you get trapped in your prison?” Pie asked in a stern voice.

“Fine i'll tell you. It all happened 5,000 years ago…”

5,000 years ago…

Deep within the Crystal Empire:

“I said bring me the PRISONER” King Sombra hissed at the soldier. “NOW!” He yelled again, as the soldier suddenly ran down the corridors down to the prison. As the soldier walked to the cell he got a glimpse of a dark pink pony sitting inside, slowly dissecting a rat in the corner.

As the guard got closer the pony whipped her head around, as she said,

“Has the king sent for me?” she asked in a high creepy voice.

“Yes also… um..”

“Spit it out!”

“He said that it was… uhm… time…”

“What! This is an outrage he can’t seal me up now! I haven't finished it yet!”

The soldier was about to speak when a voice from behind him said,

“Don’t worry about that for I shall finish it while you pay for your failures!” The Soldier whipped his head around to see Sombra holding a necklace on a golden chain.

“You backst-” the mare was caught of guard as Sombra pinned her to the wall with his magic. He levitated the necklace over her neck, as she yelled at him and struggled it was to no avail as a red flash lit the dungeon, as the necklace fell onto the mare's neck.

The mare's eyes went wide as her screams were cut off, and she was sucked in the ‘prison’. The dungeon went silent as the necklace clattered to the the ground with a thud.

“Now that that’s dealt with soldier take this necklace to a place where no pony will ever find it” Sombra commanded the soldier, as he walked out of the dungeon.

Present day…

“So wait let me get this straight… You're actually some pony from thousands of years ago and you did something to make Sombra mad which end in him imprisoning you right?”

“Yeah that about sums up what I can remember of my past”

After several more hours of chat, the two ego’s decided to go talk to twilight about last night. On the walk to the castle Pinkie couldn't get what her ego had told her. For most even Pinkie that was a surprise for Pinkie normally was surprised by nothing.

As Pinkie arrived at the entrance she had just enough time to hear a loud whistling sound before she was shoved aside by some invisible force, as a large fireball hit the ground beside her.

“What in Equestria was that!?” Pinkie cried out and that was when she saw her, flying high above was the dragon from last night. Only this time it’s eyes were know pitch black voids that seemed to say,

“Last night was so much fun I decided to come give you a taste of your own medicine!”

“How is it still alive? I broke it’s leg AND snapped it’s neck!” Pinkie was wondering the same thing, as her ego but how could it be? It simply was impossible. The dragon started to dive at an alarming speed towards Pinkie.

All Pinkie remembered was the familiar wave of heat as Pinkamena took control, the dragon opened it’s mouth as the world was engulfed in a flurry of red, orange, and yellow flames.
