Uh, Pinkie?

Previous Chapter

  "Yuppers, if only...Inkie was....here..." Pinkie said, getting faint near the end. She missed her two sisters very much, and was glad one was here, but still missed Inkie. Her hair quickly deflated. The two sisters stared as her mane turned very different.

''Um, Pinkie? Are you...okay?" Inkie asked. She was worried that she had done something wrong.

"N-No...I'm not...." Pinkie replied. She looked so sad it made both of the mares' hearts break.

"I'm sorry, did something happen, sister?" Blinkie asked worriedly.

"I guess I just..*sniff* Really, REALLY, miss Inkie, Blinks....." Pinkie said, sounding a bit better by calling her by her nickname.

"Um...I'm sorry you miss her..." was all Inkie said, as she felt too guilty to say much more. Now, how do I cheer her up? She asked herself in her mind. She looked around, as if anypony where there who knew what to do. Only a few were there and were very interested in whatever they were doing to notice. Inkie and Blinkie were starting to get a bit too worried. Pinkie just stood there, tearing up. Inkie knew that somehow, this was a test. To see what she would do. She thought of the first thing that came to mind. She was happy yet dissapointed it was parties, but she liked how she was like Pinkie. She dismissed the thought and wondered if any of her friends could help. She quickly ran out, Blinkie galloping beside her. She knew she had a pegasus friend that had something to do with rainbows. Now if I could atleast remember the name.. Inkie racked her brain for a name, but could not remember anything. She sighed in defeat, until a rainbow blur streaked by.

"THAT'S IT!' Inkie shouted which startled the mare near her. Rainbow...streak? No..NO, DASH! Rainbow Dash! Inkie finally came up with the name and quickly tried to catch up. Her efforts appeared useless, as Rainbow Dash was 'The Fastest Flier in Equestria'. She slowly came to a land, frowning. She didn't realize she could just tell Pinkie she was Inkie. N o, not only would it ruin the surprise, but after this whole dilemma? Inkie thought. She thinks she needs more than just that. Then she remembers what she first thought of. A PARTY! She shouted in her head. She mentally face hoofed herself while desperately making a party as quick as possible. She was impressed by her work, beaming at it.

  "Pinkie? Wanna see this....big thing I gotta show you?" Inkie asked.

"Sure. I have nothing else nice in my life." said Pinkie, a whole new pony in a matter of minutes. Inkie frowned, but it was shortly replaced by a smile as she pulled down a curtain covering the whole party and showed off her work. Pinkie gasped as her mane poofed up again. There were streamers everywhere, and everywhere you go a confetti canon would go off. Sweets and drinks of all kinds were at a table, where balloons were tied to. There were so many blue and yellow balloons, the whole thing would look like a bigger version of Pinkie Pie's cutie mark. One thing caught her eye, though. A purple balloon which looked out of place next to the others was floating alone. Pinkie smiled at a thought. She grabbed it and trotted to the panting pegasus, who was exhausted by just making the whole thing in minutes. Pinkie handed it to her, and Inkie just stared at it, like it was a giant diamond. She smiled warmly and took it in her hoof. Pinkie just smiled back.

"Now...Let's get this PARTY STARTED!" Pinkie yells as she grabs out her party canon, seemingly out of nowhere, and shoots confetti everywhere. Inkie gigles, but then remembers what she was going to say.

"Um, Pinkie?" She nervously said.

"Mm-Hm?" Pinkie replied.

"I just wanted to tell you that I'm...actually..Inkie." Inkie said, squeaking out the last word. Both ponies just stood there in silence, until Pinkie finally broke it like she breaks the fourth wall.

"WELL, WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO!OMGOMGIMISSEDYOUSOMUCHICAN'TBELIEVEBOTHOFMYSISTERSAREHERE!" Pinkie exclaimed while hugging Inkie, almost choking her. But she still smiled and held that lone purple balloon. Then, there was a white flash. Pinkie looked at Inkie's flank for a moment then looked at Inkie. Inkie just stared, so she gestured to her flank. Inkie eagerly looked back.....and there were three balloons, almost identical to Pinkie's. Only  one thing was different.

                                                       They were Purple.
