Elements of Insanity: Element of Sorrow

Pinkie Pie's POV.
Oh man! What a day!

I'm trapping in a room, with very little to no knowledge where I am. What to do? What to do?

Okay, let me back up so you guys can understand what's going on.

Princess Celestia has assigned Twilight, me and our friends to travel to another realm, where she believes dark powers has emerged and is growing stronger by the minute. Twilight prepared the teleportation spell, but something went horribly wrong.

Next thing I knew, I found myself in a white room. No sign of anypony else. No Twilight. No Rainbow Dash. No Applejack. No Rarity. No Fluttershy. Not even Nellie.

Oh! What do I do?

"Hello." A voice spoke from behind me.

I quickly turned and saw a human man standing in the middle of the room, staring at me.

He wore a red Soldier uniform. But he had a crazy look in his eyes. Like a crazy, insatiable hunger.

"Hi." I greeted with a smile, "I'm Pinkie Pie. It's nice to meet you."

The man smiled back, "Pleasure to meet you too, Pinkie. I am Painis Cupcake."

I smiled and started giggling in humor. Painis Cupcake. That's a very funny name for a human to have.

Painis' smile fell and he raised a brow at me, "What's so funny?"

"Your name." I answered, calming down from my giggling fit, "I've never met someone with a name like Painis Cupcake."

He regained his smile, "I guess my name is pretty funny sounding." Then he frowned and sulked, "My father gave me the name."

I noticed his sadness and frowned myself, "I'm very sorry for your loss."

He shook his head and smiled back at me, "Don't be. He's alive and well, now." Then he rubbed his chin in thought, "Even though he's a unicorn mare now."

This got my attention, "What? How is that possible?"

Painis Cupcake shrugged, "Somehow, a few nights ago, he rose from his grave and fused his soul into a purple-maned unicorn mare." He folded his arms, "I didn't recognize him, until I saw his hat." Then he scratched the back of his neck, "And it turns out my brother, Creepy Medic, fused into another unicorn mare. A filly."

I gasped at the story, "Rarity and Sweetie Belle are here?" I dashed over to him, "Do you know where they are? Can you tell me? Are they okay? Will they be able to recognize me?"

"Pinkie, calm down. I don't know." He told me, prying me apart from him, "But, I might have an idea." He took hold of my hands, "I have to ask a favor from you."

"Anything." I answered.

"I need to fuse my soul with yours." He told me.

My eyes widen, "What? But... I'm not a unicorn."

He nodded, "I know that. But, during my time at the graveyard, I learned an ancient spell, that can fuse souls together." Painis looked at me dead in the eyes, "It will destroy my body, but I feel like I can trust you to be my host. Just like my father, RubberFruit, trusted your friend, Rarity." Then he asked me, "Can you trust me?"

I was uncertain. I barely know this guy. But something inside me clicked with him. It must be because, despite how sane we sound, we're both as mad as Hatters. I mean, I'll be living with two souls. But, if it means I get to reunite with my friends, monster or normal, I guess it's worth a shot.

I looked at Painis and smiled, "Yeah. I guess I can."

He smiled back, "Thank you, Pinkie." Then he added, "Just be sure to remember. After this ritual is complete, go to the graveyard and wait there. Okay? My memories will lead you there."

I nodded in understanding.

With that, Painis Cupcake stepped back and put his hand together in prayer. He started chanting in a strange language. It sounded like old Equestrian, but I couldn't be certain. Nopony has spoken that language for over a millennia.

As he chanted, a magical circle appeared on the ground, surrounding me and Painis. The atmosphere of the room grew heavy and cold. Is this spell... Dark magic? That's not good.

"Painis, stop! This is dark magic! It's dangerous!" I shouted.

But Painis couldn't hear me. The magic has taken hold of him. I tried to move, so I could tackle him out of the circle, but I couldn't move. My wrists and hooves were bound by chains coming out of the ground!

"Painis, please listen to me! Stop this ritual!" I pleaded, "You'll die!"

But he continued chanting. The atmosphere grew heavier and darker by every passing second. A dark red fire surrounded Painis' body, burning his clothes and skin. He finished his chanting and ran toward me. He placed his burning hands onto my face and entered a glowing red state.

Both our bodies burst into flame. It was so painful, I screamed at the top of my lungs. Suddenly, a bright light erupted from the circle and blinded me. A surge of power pulsed through me and I fainted.

When I finally gathered the strength to open my eyes and sit up, I did so and looked around. Painis Cupcake was gone. The room looked like nothing happened. And, for some reason, I felt very powerful... And very hungry... For flesh.

Curious, I looked myself over. My fur has changed to a dark pink color. My mane and tail have dropped from their poofy style and are now straight, back to the time I was upset about my friends and my birthday.

My mane and tail were crimson red. Like blood. My hooves were the same color as my mane and tail.

I found that my Cutie Mark has changed as well. Instead of balloons, my Cutie Mark was a trio of floating cupcakes. The center cupcake had a 'P' inscribed on it, in blood. And the other two had blood frosting.

A pulse surged through my head. I closed my eyes and placed my hand over my forehead in pain.

Within the darkness of my eyelids, I saw Painis standing over a tombstone, sulking. Then him meeting a familiar unicorn mare in a jacket and a purple hat. I recognized her sapphire eyes. It was Rarity, but not at the same time.

Then I opened my eyes and gasped. The graveyard! Painis told me to wait in the graveyard. And now I know where it is.

I am no longer Pinkamena Diane Pie, Ponyville's party extraordinaire. I am now Pinkis Cupcake, and I'm hungry for some chaos and madness.
Hehehehe..... Hahahaha!
