Chilly Down With the Fire Gang
We Just Wanna Have a Good Time
It's a sunny day in Ponyville, as Pinkie wakes up from her bed with a big stretch.
"Good morning, Ponyville," she said, before stretching her head over to Gummy with a large grin and bedhead. "Good morning, Gummy."
Her head swings back into position, before pushing the covers off and walking up to Gummy, picking him up by her left hoof and stuffing him in her mane.
"Let's go make some breakfast."
She opens the door and walks downstairs, noticing a large amount of flour on the floor. She gasps, zooming to the bottom to see a mess waiting for her.
"Oh no!" shouts Pinkie, looking around the messy establishment. "Not again!"
Cabinets have been open, a chocolate cake that was supposed to be delivered today is gone, a few cupcakes have been eaten with crumbs and frosting on the floor, and the ice cream freezer is half empty, and the tables are a mess with post-chewed gum sticking all over. These occurrences have been happening for the past few days, as more and more things get stolen, including a hole jar of gummy bears. Pinkie grits her teeth and stomps her right hoof.
"That does it!" she shouts. "Somepony has been stealing and he or she is going to be in big trouble!"
Pinkie then looks back to the flour, noticing something unusual. There are a set of footprints, but not that of a pony. These footprints are different; they have the feet with four skinny toes. Could it be a dragon or some unknown creature?
"Never in my life have I seen such bizarre footprints like these," said Pinkie, before looking to Gummy with his head popping up from her mane. "What do you think, Gummy?"
The tiny alligator blinks, as Pinkie looks back to the bizarre footprints.
"I guess it's a mystery to us both."
She looks towards the direction to where the footprints lead, making their way towards the open door.
"Gummy, looks like I have to solve this mystery," she said, before her stomach gurgled. "After breakfast, cleaning up this mess, and a good shower."
It's noon, as Pinkie leaves the comforts of her home, including Gummy. As she walks out the door, she notices a piece of unopened taffy a feet away. She takes the piece into her hoof and gives it a few sniffs.
"It's from them," said Pinkie quietly, stuffing the piece into her mane.
She brings the upper half of her body to the ground, placing her muzzle to the ground and following the scent coming from the piece of taffy like a dog trying to find its missing ball.
She continues to sniff the ground, as ponies stare at her with cocked brows, unsure of what Pinkie is doing. As she continued, she finds another piece of candy, only this time, it's a red lollipop.
"These things must really like candy," said Pinkie, taking the lollipop and sticking it into her mane.
"Hey there, Pinkie," said a familiar voice.
Pinkie looks up to see Twilight looking down at her with an awkward smile. Pinkie jolts up, dusting off some dirt from her chest.
"Hey there, Twilight," said Pinkie with a smile.
"What exactly are you doing?"
"Looking for thieves."
"Thieves?"
"They've been stealing from Sugarcube Corner for the past few days and I am going to catch those sugar-toothed thieves."
"Do you need any help?"
"I'll be fine, Twily."
"Just be careful, Pinkie."
"I'll be super careful."
Pinkie goes back to sniffing the ground, walking past Twilight and moving forward with the scent she's tracking.
"Okay... the trail ends... here!"
Pinkie looks up, to see that she's staring straight into the entrance of the Everfree Forest.
"Everfree?" said Pinkie with surprise. "They sure came a long way from here. I wonder if they're hungry because nothing tastes good in here for them."
Pinkie walks in, passing by some bushes and into the forest, as the chirping of birds began dying down from the entrance. The forest was quiet, with the exception of cricket noises, sounds of the wind brushing against the leaves of trees, and the sound of laughter. Wait! Laughter? Pinkie brings her ear up and points to the direction to where the laughter is the loudest.
"Laughter in Everfree? That's strange, but I love laughter."
She walks towards the laughter, as sticks and twigs under her hooves snap and crack. The further she went, not only was there laughter, but the sound of crackling fire. A few feet ahead, a flickering light shines past through a bush. Pinkie quietly sneaks towards the bush and looks above with her ears down to not catch any attention. What she sees is rather bizarre than any other creature she has seen in Equestria. There is a large fire flickering up towards the top of the trees. There about four creatures with red fur on the back of their hands, from elbows to the torso and to their feet. Their hair too is red with large pointy ears. Their mouths look beak-like with a few sharp teeth that poke out. They even have tails with a red hair at the tip of it. One thing that also catches to her surprise are the feet, which consist of four toes, including four fingers.
"These are definitely the thieves," whispered Pinkie to herself.
"Hey guys!" shouts a voice from behind Pinkie, making her turn around to see another one of these things, but was chunkier than the other three. "I found something!"
"H-hi," said Pinkie with an awkward smile.
"Hey there, yourself," replied the creature, before getting closer to her and picking her up.
"Wh-what are you going to do with me?" asked Pinkie, worried.
The creature ignores her, as he brings her close to the others.
"Look what I found," said the creature, as he sets Pinkie in the middle of the four creatures.
"What is it?" asked one with a white mustache.
"It's funny lookin'," said another creature with a patch of white hair above its brow.
"Are you from the place that has scrumptious treats?" asked another.
"Those are good," said a creature with a fatter nose.
"I am from the place that you four have been stealing and I want you four to stop."
"Where are we supposed to eat and get our groove on?" asked the chunky creature.
"Groove?" said Pinkie, cocking a brow. "You things know how to party?"
"Yeah," they all said, nodding down at Pinkie.
"Can you things show me what you can do? Tell you what, if you impress me, I'll let you guys live with me and together, we can have parties beyond your wildest dreams."
"Can we even eat those things we take?"
"Sure."
The five creatures walk a two feet away from Pinkie, discussing quietly to one another. Pinkie stands up and brushes off a stick, watching them huddled and whispering. They then break the huddle and turn towards Pinkie with smiles on their mouths.
"Let's have a good time," said the creature with a white patch.
The creature with a mustache pulls off his head, making Pinkie gasp with surprise. The head gives out a laugh, as it gets tossed to the chunky creature, who makes his head fly off, using his ears to make his head flutter. The creature with the mustache's head lands on the chunky body, while the other hand lands onto the other, making the creatures giggle, Pinkie included. The two walk towards one another, until the two trip, making their heads jump off and landing onto the correct bodies. The creatures stand up and laugh, along with the other three.
"Tada!" said the five, making Pinkie clop her hooves.
"Anything else?" asked Pinkie.
"Hey boss," said the creature with a mustache, "show her that eye thing."
"Oh!" said the creature with a white patch.
He takes his fingers and pokes his eyes, making Pinkie gasp, as the creature points his eyes toward her.
"I don't want to see that, please," said Pinkie, disgusted.
"Sorry," said the eyeless creature, putting his eyeballs back into the eye sockets.
"That's okay. You guys seem like fun. Do you five have names?"
"We don't," said the creature with the mustache.
"Anything to call you?"
"Together, we are the fireys," said the firey with a white patch. "I happen to be the leader."
"Fireys? Never heard of your kind before."
"We see your kind a lot," said the chunky firey.
"We're everywhere," said Pinkie with a giggle. "Would you fireys like to be my friend?"
"Sure," said the five, nodding their heads.
Pinkie sticks out her hoof, as the leader of the firey's shakes it, making the other three fling their heads up with hoots of joy.
"Will we get food?" asked the leader.
"You sure will. Along with drinks and a place to sleep. Better than sleeping out here, it's dangerous."
"I hate the dirt," said a firey. "It's not to comfortable."
"Can we party there?"
"Sure can. I'll even bring some friends."
"The more the better," said the leader.
The next day, Twilight, along with Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and Starlight walk together towards Sugarcube Corner, getting an invite to Pinkie's for a myserteous party for her friends to know about.
"I wonder what Pinkie's party is about," wondered Rainbow Dash, flying above the five mares.
"I don't know either," said Starlight. "She didn't give too much info on what it'll be."
"Whatever it is," said Twilight, "it's gonna be fun."
As the friends make it towards Sugarcube corner, Twilight opens the door, looking into the empty establishment without any surprise by Pinkie.
"Pinkie?" called out Twilight, looking around for the giggly mare. "Where are you?"
"Hey!" shouts Rainbow Dash, landing on her hooves and walking into the middle of the establishment. "Where are you Pinkie?"
"Darling?" asked Rarity, walking in with the others behind.
"Did she ask to meet her here?" asked Fluttershy.
"She did," said Applejack. "Perhaps she's late."
Suddenly, behind the counter, the leader of the fireys jumps high and landing in front of Dashie, making her take a few steps back, as the creature laughs.
"What in the hay is that?!" shouts Applejack, as the mares walk backwards towards the door.
"Where are you goin'?" asked another firey from behind them, shutting the door. "The party is just beginning."
A firey with a fat nose clangs two wooden spoons, creating a rhythm, while the other three firey's began dissembling themselves, tossing their heads to one another, making the mares watch with shock, seeing these bizarre creatures disassemble their own heads and not die.
"Hey guys," said Pinkie, coming from upstairs, wearing a read suit with a colors of the fireys, along with long fake ears, and a beak-like mouth with paper teeth. "Look at my new friends. They're really, really, really fun!"
"Uh..." said Twilight, confounded. "These are your friends?"
"They are, Twilight. Meet the Fireys."
"Fireys?" said the confused mares.
"Yeah," said the chunky firey, jumping right beside Pinkie. "That's right."
"We don't mean any harm," said the firey with a mustache, upside down to Twilight's right.
"We just wanna party," said the leader, as he places his head back onto his body.
"They seem like cool creatures," said Rainbow Dash, flying beside the firey leader, shaking her tail.
"That's it!" said the firey leader. "Have some fun!"
Rainbow Dash smiles, as the firey leader smiles along with her.
"Any friend of Pinkie's is a friend of mine," said Fluttershy, as the firey with a fat nose comes up to her, placing a dandelion in her mane.
"I guess I can handle these so-called firey's," said Rarity.
"Oh, what the hay," said Applejack, rolling her eyes with a smile. "Might as well get along with them, too."
"See, Twilight?" said Pinkie, cocking her head with a smile. "Nothing to worry about."
"I guess," said Twilight. "As long as you have them under control, then they can stay here."
"Thanks, Twily," said Pinkie, hugging her friend tightly.
"Say, fellas," said the firey leader.
"What?" said the others.
"Let's get Twily and her friends to chilly down with us."
"Yeah!" they all shouted, giving out a laugh of joy.
