Pinkie Pie's Special Friends

Pinkie Pie was walking through Ponyville and noticed everything was peaceful and everybody was enjoying their day, she did not see any of her other friends in the town either, she then heard someone trying to cast a spell and saw Twilight Sparkle and Spike. She trotted to them while Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, and Applejack also arrived,

"What'cha doin', Twilight?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"I'm trying to develop a new spell that allows one to see their friends again, alive and dead, it'll allow them all to be in one place that is special to the one hit with the spell and they can interact with them and each other all at once." Twilight Sparkle explained,

"Care to explain why you're trying to create such a complicated spell, darling?" Rarity questioned,

"Princess Celestia has been missing her old friends recently and wishes to see them again, so I'm making a spell to make that happen in hopes of making her happy." Twilight Sparkle responded,

"Well, Ah ain't sure about this, sugar cube, Ah think you'd do better practicin' it somewhere with nopony around." Applejack suggested,

"Relax, it's small like a typical spell, it won't cause much collateral if it hits something." Twilight Sparkle stated,

"It will if it hits someone though." Spike reminded,

"I doubt that, Spike, I don't see anypony in my sight right now, but it does raise a concern if that does happen, the spell's not perfected yet, so it can risk one's enemies coming back as well." Twilight Sparkle stated,

"Can you zap me so I can meet my past pets again?" Fluttershy requested,

"I'll consider it after I get it right." Twilight Sparkle replied, Fluttershy smiled,

"Maybe you should try to make the spell inside your castle instead of out here." Rainbow Dash stated,

"I focus better in an open space." Twilight Sparkle replied,

"Well, alright then, let's step back, everyone." Applejack said, and they did. Twilight Sparkle cast the spell and shot it out of sight, it bounced off of a tree far away and the beam ricocheted across Ponyville, everybody watched and it hit many objects across the town until it hit Pinkie Pie, she floated into the sky while an aura the same color as Twilight Sparkle's magic aura appeared around her, a white flash appeared and everybody looked around.

Pinkie Pie stood up and opened her eyes and saw she was in her childhood home and saw Igneous Rock Pie, Cloudy Quartz, Limestone Pie, Maud Pie, and Marble Pie,

"Huh? Hey, what happened?" Limestone Pie asked,

"Twilight was trying a new spell and she hit me with it by accident." Pinkie Pie answered,

"That doesn't explain why we're here." Maud Pie reminded,

"Hmm-mm." Marble Pie said while nodding,

"Oh my, what art they doing here?" Cloudy Quartz asked as she pointed, they looked and saw Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Spike, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, Trixie, Sunburst, Cheese Sandwich, Night Light, Twilight Velvet, Shining Armor, Princess Cadance, Flurry Heart, Bow Hothoof, Windy Whistles, Mr. Shy, Mrs. Shy, Zephyr Breeze, Mudbriar, Hondo Flanks, Cookie Crumbles, and the natives of Ponyville,

"Where are we?" Cheerilee asked,

"Wait, Ah remember this place, this is Pinkie Pie's childhood home." Apple Bloom stated,

"Eeyup." Big Macintosh added,

"Oh, what horrid conditions, I couldn't imagine growing up in a place like this." Zephyr Breeze remarked,

"Don't bother leaving, Zephyr Breeze, there's no homes to see around here." Pinkie Pie remarked,

"Still, I didn't imagine you'd grow up in a place like this, Pinkie Pie." Mrs. Cake remarked,

"It surprises many people." Pinkie Pie responded, they heard more moving in the house's corner and everybody saw many more people, they got up and Pinkie Pie's mane and tail stood up straight when she saw Letter, Number, Numerical, Alphabet, Beethooven, Merrick, Rock Candy and her mother, father, husband, son, and daughter, Cloudy, Air Force, Ice Blower, Frosty, Snowflake, Freeze, Blizzard, Igloo, Penguin, Snow, Ross, Toy Maker, Doll Maker, Treasure Hunter, Ainsworth, Fiery Heart, Cool Head, Flower Viola, Fiddler, Gardener, Obsidian, Rose, Lee, Vulture, Dove, Seamstress, Drifter, Pink Diamond, Gilmore, Purple Grace, Gold Digger, Wilfred, Boxer, Knock Out, Lightning Strike, Tulip, Bright Coat, Dark Mane, Cake Cream, Aroma, Rainstorm, White Mage, Thunderstorm, Angelique, Emerald, Haute Coture, Tempo, Aquarius, Taco Bell, Foster, Zhivago, Bright Smile, Joy Bringer, Callas, Tati, Houdini, Duo, Bozo, Back Flip, Double Joint, Butterfly Azalea, Weight Lifter, Powerlifter, Callisthenics, Arcana, Melon Farmer, Melon Harvester, Melon Crops, Banana Tree, Cavendish, Lady Fingers, Winter Blues, Punctual Organizer, Sugar Rush, Diary Farmer, Warm Heart, Woodwind, Love Giver, Refrigeration Unit, and Icebox, they all stood up and looked around while Cool Head, Boxer, Knock Out, Tati, Houdini, Duo, Bozo, Back Flip, and Double Joint looked at their own front hoofs,

"Wha? I'm alive again." Tati remarked,

"What? So am I, and I can hear you." Houdini replied,

"I can see and hear you guys, too." Duo remarked, Bozo touched his partners,

"I can touch and feel you guys, too." Bozo reported,

"I can feel you, too." Back Flip said,

"It seems we've been revived from the dead." Double Joint stated,

"Alright, we get it, y'all were dead and came back to life cause the grim reaper couldn't stand y'all, he apparently couldn't stand me, either." Boxer stated,

"Looks like the grim reaper couldn't stand me either, it seems I've been kicked out of the afterlife as well." Knock Out replied, he then coughed while Lightning Strike held him,

"That would mean I've been revived as well." Cool Head said,

"Who art thou people?" Igneous Rock Pie questioned,

"Wait, I can explain." Pinkie Pie responded, and she did,

"Wow, thou hast made lots of friends, Pinkamena Diane Pie, but I do remember Ice Blower and Frosty there." Igneous Rock Pie spoke,

"Hello, Igneous, Cloudy, Limestone, Maudileena, Pinkamena, and Marble." Frosty said,

"Hi, long time, no see." Ice Blower quivered while shaking, he looked at the many females around him and his heart began to beat quickly,

"Still scared of girls, I see." Limestone Pie remarked,

"I... gotten over it before, now I feel scared again." Ice Blower said,

"Excuse me." Rock Candy said while clutching her groin,

"Where's the bathroom?" Rock Candy asked, Cloudy Quartz pointed it to her and she went. Everybody heard farting and some had shocked expressions while others struggled not to laugh, they looked at Taco Bell and saw him clutching his abdomen,

"Sorry, I have chronic flatulence." Taco Bell stated and he farted again,

"Don't soil the floor." Limestone Pie stated,

"I just fart a lot, I don't have bowel problems." Taco Bell said,

"Oh, good." Limestone Pie commented, Wilfred barked and panted with his tongue out and Igneous Rock Pie and Cloudy Quartz became alerted,

"Good Celestia! A canine with them!" Cloudy Quartz exclaimed,

"It's fine, he's house trained." Gilmore said, and Wilfred sat and continued panting,

"Sorry to ask, but where are we?" Ross asked,

"We're in my childhood home." Pinkie Pie answered,

"Oh, I see, I hope it's as colorful and whimsical as your personality, Pinkie Pie." Ross stated,

"Sorry to say this to you, but no, it isn't, everything's dull colored here." Purple Grace responded,

"That's unfortunate." Ross remarked,

"Alright, I finished looking at you all, where's Snowflake and Star Pony?" Pinkie Pie asked, Toy Maker, Doll Maker, Refrigeration Unit, and Icebox looked around and did not see them,

"Um, I'm right here." the mare Snowflake answered,

"No, not you, I'm looking for a filly also named Snowflake." Pinkie Pie explained,

"Oh." the adult Snowflake said,

"Oh, my, our adopted daughter's not here." Icebox said, Rock Candy then came back,

"She's not back there." Rock Candy reported,

"Hey, I see something moving outside on the farm." Sweetie Belle stated, they looked and saw the filly Snowflake walking while shivering,

"There she is." Refrigeration Unit spoke, and Numerical and Alphabet ran outside and brought her in since they were the closest to the door. Twilight Sparkle made blankets appear around the filly Snowflake while she shivered,

"Thank you, I was in the middle of nowhere and wandered until I found this place." the filly Snowflake stated,

"This is my childhood home, Snowflake, there's no house in sight here." Pinkie Pie responded,

"Wow, I did not think you'd grow up and be raised in a place like this." the filly Snowflake said,

"Alright, but now where's our adopted son?" Toy Maker questioned,

"Pinkamena Diane Pie, thou doth not think..." Igneous Rock Pie questioned, Cloudy Quartz's, Limestone Pie's, Maud Pie's, Pinkie Pie's, and Marble Pie's eyes' widened, knocking was then heard on the door,

"Pinkie Pie..." a weak voice stated, she realized it was Star Pony and quickly opened the door,

"Star Pony!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, he stumbled in and almost everybody screamed in horror when they saw his face was heavily scarred, swollen, and bruised, his legs were scarred with scrapes as well, the bottom of his hooves had blisters on them, swollen in a few parts, his back had scrapes and scabs all over it, and his flank had horizontal cuts on it, he fell onto the floor and groaned,

"What happened to him?!" Fiery Heart exclaimed,

"My... parents... they're... back." Star Pony stated while struggling to speak,

"What? Twilight, why are they back? I didn't consider them my friends." Pinkie Pie spoke,

"Like I said earlier, it's still a work in progress, I'll have to change it around later so one's enemies don't come back." Twilight Sparkle stated,

"Wait, enemies?" Obsidian questioned,

"You think Greenie Gaz and his gang are back?" Rose asked, Pinkie Pie's eyes widened while Lee ran to the nearest window and looked out the window. He looked for Greenie Gaz, Pear, Tiger Bench, Thumbscrew, Rack, Iron Spider, Bamboo, Iron Maiden, Spanish Donkey, Brazen Bull, Crocodile Shears, Blood Eagle, and Necktie,

"I don't see them anywhere." Lee reported,

"How many members are there in the gang?" Maud Pie asked,

"Thirteen." Lee responded,

"Thirteen? That seems pretty big for a group of criminals." Limestone Pie remarked,

"We took them down before, there's more people with us now, too, we can restrain and arrest them easily this time." Obsidian stated, Rose nodded while smiling,

"Alright, to all of you who don't know, I got hit with a spell that allows one to see of their friends at once again, this is my childhood home, those five there are my parents and my sisters." Pinkie Pie explained,

"What? Can somebody write down what she's saying, I'm deaf." Beethooven stated, Maud Pie pulled a paper out of her mane with what Pinkie Pie just said and showed it to him,

"Oh, you really stand out appearance-wise, Pinkie Pie." Beethooven said,

"Oh, great, first, somepony who can't see, now, a pony who can't hear, fantastic, more work for me." Limestone Pie complained,

"What with her?" Flower Viola asked,

"Sorry about that, my oldest sister is a sourpuss." Pinkie Pie stated,

"Pinkie Pie was always the family socializer whenever we had visitors, our parents here speak in a language lost to modern ponies, Limestone doesn't like visitors, I'm not really one to show my emotions, and Marble gets nervous whenever somepony comes." Maud Pie explained,

"Hmm-mm." Marble Pie spoke while nodding,

"Quite a unique family you have." Butterfly Azalea stated,

"They are, and all of those people and animals there are my friends from Ponyville, which several of you have already met." Pinkie Pie stated,

"Hello, to those who don't know or recognize me, I am Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship." Twilight Sparkle announced,

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, we get it, but as long as you're here, I'm in charge." Limestone Pie remarked,

"Oh, how rude." Rarity said,

"I am aware of Pinkie's desires to help you all in the past, and it seems your problems have all reemerged, I will do my best to try to help as well." Twilight Sparkle stated, Maud Pie showed Beethooven another paper and he read it,

"Um, can any of you make a note with letters and numbers on them please?" Letter requested, Marble Pie took a sheet of paper out of her mane and showed it to them, she and Number looked at the random letters and numbers on it,

"Can you two read?" Alphabet asked,

"I can't read the numbers." Letter answered,

"I still can't read the letters." Number added,

"Figured." Numerical remarked,

"I remember what I did last time, I'll get to it later." Pinkie Pie stated, Beethooven tried to read Pinkie Pie's lip movement to deduce what she was saying but could not, Merrick looked at himself and moved around,

"Oh, what happened to you?" Angelique asked,

"I was born this way." Merrick answered, Rock Candy sighed while holding her hind legs together, Cloudy unfolded her wings' stumps,

"Oh, no, where are my prosthetics?!" Cloudy exclaimed, Ice Blower looked at the females and panted heavily,

"I'm still blind, so I'll need my surroundings explained to me later." Ross stated, Star Pony vomited out metal scraps and the others looked on with horror while White Mage and Zhivago checked on him, Treasure Hunter thought about his parents and looked down,

"Pinkie Pie, I miss my husband deeply again." Fiery Heart reported with tears falling out of her eyes,

"I feel a deep longing for my late wife again as well." Cool Head added,

"Mommy, daddy, are you two okay seeing each other right now?" Flower Viola questioned,

"Can't say I am." Fiddler responded,

"Me neither." Gardener added,

"I miss my dead sister a lot suddenly, too." Obsidian stated,

"It looks like our child wasn't revived." Vulture observed,

"I wish he could've been here." Dove lamented,

"Me too, I never got to thank him for saving my life." Seamstress spoke,

"Things seem no different for us, just me, my siblings, dog, boyfriend, and father." Pink Diamond observed,

"Yeah, I think my girlfriend's right, our situation seems no different." Gold Digger added,

"But it looks like daddy's workplaces are very far from here." Purple Grace said,

"It's fine, Drifter, my family's always looking for new employees, but you'll have to obey Limestone instead of my parents." Pinkie Pie answered,

"I'll think about it." Drifter spoke, Boxer and Knock Out coughed,

"Daddy?" Lightning Strike asked,

"I'm fine, darling." Knock Out responded, Tulip's muscles twitched while Bright Coat, Dark Mane, Cake Cream, Aroma, Rainstorm, and Thunderstorm held her, Foster looked around and growled,

"I've had enough problems in my current life already! Me being far away and unable to find my way home and surrounded by strangers is something I don't need!" Foster fumed,

"Foster, if you act like your usual self and start destroying things and getting violent, you will have to answer to me and my family." Pinkie Pie warned,

"I find anything broken here, and I will break your body." Limestone Pie stated, Bright Smile laid down and sighed while her body cracked the floor a little while Joy Bringer sat and watched her, Callas tried to speak and sing and noticed her voice was still gone,

"Pinkie Pie, I don't see my mean family anywhere." Butterfly Azalea stated,

"I don't see them either." Pinkie Pie replied,

"Um, do you guys have any food, I wanna test my taste buds since I couldn't taste anything until Pinkie Pie reverted it a bit." Weight Lifter reported, Maud Pie got a sweet bun and he tried it, he shook his head,

"I don't feel tired, I haven't slept in over a day, either." Arcana stated while the others looked at her with concern and Maud Pie took out a paper on what she said and Beethooven read it,

"I already know I'm still lactose intolerant." Melon Farmer remarked,

"Oh, wow, I'm gluten intolerant." Banana Tree replied, Winter Blues walked in a corner and laid down,

"Hey, what are you doing?" Limestone Pie asked,

"He has depression, Limestone." Pinkie Pie answered,

"I bet he will be over it if he worked here on the farm." Limestone Pie remarked,

"I don't think that's going to work." Maud Pie commented,

"Technically, it could work if he keeps his mind busy." Mudbriar stated, Punctual Organizer looked around and got a little bothered over most things not being even and symmetrical in the house, Sugar Rush looked outside at the rock farm and wanted to play, Warm Heart sat in a corner and panted heavily,

"You're safe here, Warm Heart." Pinkie Pie reassured, and he calmed down,

"Mommy, are you going to leave for work?" Woodwind asked,

"There's nowhere to go, until we're sent back, keep practicing playing your flute." Love Giver replied, Woodwind nodded,

"Wow, you made some unique friends throughout your life, Pinkie Pie." Cheerilee spoke,

"Indeed, she has, we've already met some of them, but this is our first time seeing all of them." Mayor Mare added,

"Still hard to believe there's enough room here for us all." Sandbar observed,

"It's still very crowded though." Sunset Shimmer spoke,

"Just who were friends with all of you guys?" Maud Pie asked,

"That would be me." Merrick replied,

"You all go ahead and make yourselves at home, we're stuck here until a unicorn or Twilight herself can undo her spell and return things to normal." Pinkie Pie stated,

"Well, might as well work while I'm here, how much are you all paying?" Drifter asked,

"Fifty bits for every rock field done." Igneous Rock Pie answered,

"Alright, can you all show me the ropes?" Drifter requested,

"An unneeded phrase since there are no ropes here on this farm." Mudbriar stated,

"I know that, I didn't mean that literally." Drifter remarked,

"Sorry, but Mudbriar's always like that." Trixie responded,

"Yona wanna work on rock farm, too." Yona stated,

"What? A yak working on the rock farm? Nu-uh, no way, not gonna happen." Limestone Pie said,

"Limestone, I think a yak would be great for cracking rocks and gems open." Maud Pie suggested,

"Yak good at smashing." Yona remarked,

"Alright, fine, those who wanna work, come on outside." Limestone Pie said, and she walked outside and Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Big Macintosh, Air Force, Ice Blower, Frosty, the mare Snowflake, Freeze, Blizzard, Igloo, Penguin, Snow, Treasure Hunter, Obsidian, Drifter, Gold Digger, Boxer, Knock Out, Emerald, Weight Lifter, Powerlifter, and Callisthenics went out and the others followed.

Limestone Pie got a pickaxe and a rock,

"This is the simple part, use a pickaxe and break the rocks apart, there's gems in them sometimes, like this." Limestone Pie instructed, and she picked up a pickaxe with her mouth and broke the rocks apart while they watched,

"After that, you put them in the wagon there, you then move it to the quadrant with the least rocks, and then you go work in the next quadrant with the most rocks, break those and put them in the wagon and move it into the quadrant with currently the least rocks, rinse and repeat." Limestone Pie said, and she did the job and the others began. They worked while the others watched,

"I am not doing this job again." Trixie declared, they watched and the foals struggled, Ice Blower tried to ignore the girls around him and he almost hyperventilated at seeing them, he looked down and sighed,

"Um, Ice Blower, I think it'll be best if you don't work until you're comfortable around girls again." Maud Pie said, and he stopped,

"What's with him?" Lightning Strike asked,

"It's my fault, I picked on my little brother a lot and it's made him scared of girls." Frosty explained,

"Ice Blower, dear, are you okay looking at me?" the mare Snowflake asked, Ice Blower looked at her and he panted and sweated heavily,

"Looks like you've got yourself a case of the adult cooties." Boxer remarked, he then coughed and almost fell over,

"Um, are you okay to work?" Rainbow Dash questioned,

"I'm fine, not like it matters, I'm likely gonna be dead soon anyway." Boxer said,

"Don't get any of your sickness on my rocks." Limestone Pie ordered,

"Well, excuse me, miss, I didn't know these rocks were your children." Boxer stated, everybody except Beethooven's and Maud Pie's jaws dropped,

"I don't have time to deal with snarky comments." Limestone Pie remarked,

"Really? I just see you standin' and watchin' right now." Boxer responded,

"Boxer, Limestone doesn't like dealing with people who talk back to her and sarcastic people." Pinkie Pie warned,

"She got a parasprite up her flank or somethin'?" Boxer asked, Limestone Pie's jaw dropped,

"No! I have a farm to run and money to make! I am busy all day every day, somepony with a mouth like yours adds more stress and problems onto me!" Limestone Pie fumed,

"Sounds like you've been missin' out on life and had your growth stunted." Boxer stated, Limestone Pie growled, Boxer then went back to work and stopped talking. Alphabet and Numerical began helping Letter and Number read things and Pinkie Pie modified their notes, she remembered what she did last time and a capital A was made with a fraction sign, another fraction sign that was backwards, and a subtraction sign between them; a capital B was made with the numbers 1 and 3; the letter C was made with the left parenthesis; a capital D was made with the number 1 and a right parenthesis; a capital E was made with the sigma symbol; a capital F was made with the number 1 and an equal sign; a lowercase G was made with the number 9; a lowercase H was made with the number 4 that was upside-down and backwards; a capital I was made with the number 1; a capital J was made with the square root symbol; the letter K was made with the number 1, a fraction sign, and a backwards fraction sign; a capital L was made with the number 7 upside-down and backwards; a capital M was made with two number 1s, a fraction sign, and a backwards fraction sign; a capital N was made with two number 1s and a backwards fraction sign; the letter O was made with the number 0; the letter P was made with the number 1 and a right parenthesis; a lowercase Q was made with the number 1 and a left parenthesis; a capital R was made with the number 1, a right parenthesis, and a backwards fraction sign; the letter S was made with parentheses; a lowercase T was made with the plus sign; a capital U was made with a parabola; the letter V was made with a fraction sign and a backwards fraction sign; the letter W was made with two fraction signs and two backwards fractions signs; the letter X was made with the multiplication sign; a capital Y was made with the number 1, a fraction sign, and a backwards fraction sign; the letter Z was made with the number 2,

"Wow, Pinkie Pie, very creative." Cheerilee complimented,

"I got another set." Pinkie Pie replied, and she wrote the numbers, the number 0 was made with the letter O, the number 1 was made with a capital I; the number 2 was made with the letter Z; the number 3 was made with a capital E backwards; the number 4 was made with a lowercase H that was upside-down and backwards; the number 5 was made with a capital L that was upside-down with the letter C under it and backwards; the number 6 was made with a lowercase G that was upside-down and backwards; the number 7 was made with a capital L that was upside-down and backwards; the number 8 was made with two Os; the number 9 was made with a lowercase G,

"Oh my, very nice." Night Light stated,

"Didn't you try something similar when you were young, Twilight?" Twilight Velvet asked,

"I think I did, I don't remember." Twilight Sparkle replied,

"I don't think she did." Shining Armor remarked,

"I think I may have suggested trying something similar." Princess Cadance stated, Flurry Heart cooed while smiling,

"How did you get this idea, Pinkie Pie?" the filly Snowflake asked,

"I just observed and noticed they looked similar." Pinkie Pie responded,

"Oh." the filly Snowflake said,

"Can you try the same with musical notes?" Woodwind questioned,

"Mmm, from what I've seen, a lot of the notes will likely be replaced with the letter L that would be rotated around while the whole note will likely be a lowercase O or the number 0." Pinkie Pie observed,

"You should practice playing your instruments while you're here, Woodwind." Love Giver suggested,

"Right. Is it okay if I play music here, Limestone Pie?" Woodwind requested,

"As long as you don't distract any of us and you stay out of the way." Limestone Pie stated,

"Okay." Woodwind said, and she got her sheet music and did not see anything she could put them against until Twilight Sparkle made a music stand and chair appear with her magic, Woodwind put the sheet music on it and then sat in the chair and played her flute. Fluttershy swayed back and forth while Beethooven smiled and looked at her sheet music, he did not hear her music but watched which keys she pressed down on her flute, he corrected her hoofs whenever she pressed down on the wrong keys and kept playing, she practiced while Angelique and Tempo walked to her, Pinkie Pie dashed away and came back with two more music stands, sheet music, a violin, and a trumpet, they sat and Angelique played the violin while Tempo played the trumpet. Emerald cracked open as many rocks and looked for any gems that could be inside,

"What are you doing?" Maud Pie asked,

"Looking for gems, I wanna be an appraiser when I get older." Emerald explained,

"These rocks here don't have any gems in them." Maud Pie answered,

"You an appraiser, too?" Emerald asked,

"No, rock expert." Maud Pie responded,

"A geologist to be specific." Mudbriar stated,

"Is he a relative of you?" Emerald questioned,

"Boyfriend." Maud Pie responded,

"Oh, he looks like he could pass off as a member of your family." Emerald commented,

"Her family is into rocks, mine is into sticks." Mudbriar stated,

"Oh, I see, same with you and Limestone there, I would've thought you were the oldest sibling if it wasn't stated that Limestone is." Emerald said,

"While it is true Limestone is older than me, she and I are actually almost the same age, and same with her being in charge of the farm, I'm the second-in-command when I'm here, if Limestone can't run the farm for whatever reason, I take charge." Maud Pie explained,

"You gonna help the rocks too or not, Maud?" Limestone Pie questioned,

"I'm watching the colt, Limestone." Maud Pie answered, everybody worked until Limestone Pie saw Treasure Hunter examining Holder's Boulder,

"Hey! What are you doing at Holder's Boulder?!" Limestone Pie hollered,

"I'm looking for treasure." Treasure Hunter responded,

"There's no treasure on this farm, so get away from it and no digging the ground here." Limestone Pie spoke, Treasure Hunter looked down,

"Come on, Treasure Hunter, let's try something else." Ainsworth said, and they walked away. Pinkie Pie and her sisters worked and they exclaimed when a rock flew past their heads, they looked and saw Gilmore hitting them with a golf club,

"Gilmore!" Pinkie Pie scolded,

"Hey! No hitting the rocks! They're not golf balls!" Limestone Pie fumed,

"Gilmore, if you think my forms of punishment and discipline were bad, you're in for a lot worse here since it's Limestone and my parents who do the disciplining here." Pinkie Pie warned, Gilmore looked and saw Igneous Rock Pie and Cloudy Quartz glaring at him, Igneous Rock Pie cracked his front hoofs while Cloudy Quartz stretched and cracked her neck muscles, he sweated and went back into the house slowly while the Pie sisters resumed working. Foster growled at the music playing and threw a rock a Woodwind's music stand and knocked it down, they stopped playing while Foster turned around and exhaled sharply, Limestone Pie glared at him and walked to him but Pinkie Pie touched her shoulder and shook her head, he looked at the rocks and he began kicking and throwing them around,

"HEY!!" Limestone Pie hollered while she ran to him and restrained him,

"What do you think you're doing to my farm?!" Limestone Pie inquired,

"GET OFF OF ME!!" Foster yelled,

"Not until you stop acting the way you do." Limestone Pie replied, Foster growled while Pinkie Pie walked to him,

"Foster, what is the matter?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"What do you think?! I'm forced to be here in this run down home of yours and overcrowded with all of these people and their annoying antics! No way would a family be able to live like this without getting in trouble with the authorities when I was a kid!" Foster explained,

"Foster, I know this isn't an ideal place and it's not happy, but it's still my childhood home and this is my family." Pinkie Pie stated,

"How you didn't desire to leave and wanted to do something is beyond me." Foster commented,

"I did, but I still come back here because I love my family." Pinkie Pie replied,

"Oh, I see." Foster remarked while he calmed down,

"You have to control your rage here, Foster, my family is not as forgiving and patient as I am." Pinkie Pie reminded, Foster exhaled and sighed,

"Good, now try to stay that way, Limestone Pie and Maud Pie deal with the troublemakers here, and they're a lot rougher and stronger than I am." Pinkie Pie stated,

"From my experiences in the royal guard, it's the quiet people like Maud Pie who are the stronger and more dangerous of the two." Foster spoke,

"It's not like that between us, Limestone is the strongest out of all of us physically." Maud Pie stated,

"Not very emotive, is she?" Foster questioned,

"Nope." Pinkie Pie responded,

"The royal guards were looking for ponies like that when I joined." Foster stated,

"What a coincidence, they were looking for that at the time I joined, too." Cool Head spoke,

"Oh, wow, I guess accepting emotional ponies is a recent thing." Foster deduced,

"It probably is." Cool Head responded,

"Joining the royal guard is something that never caught my interest." Maud Pie remarked,

"Well, have fun, guys, I'll go ahead and check on the others." Pinkie Pie said, and she trotted away. The farm ran smoothly and Yona rammed and broke the rocks, she smiled and had fun breaking rocks, Sugar Rush got an idea and began throwing them at Yona and she ran and tried to ram and break them before they hit the ground, Smoulder and Silverstream joined in and began playing, Sugar Rush had fun while Diary Farmer slapped her own forehead and shook her head, the rocks were broken and he began jumping and rolling around while throwing the pieces into the wagon, Sandbar decided to try and had fun while Ocellus changed into a dragon and began throwing them, Smolder flew down and competed with who can throw the most and farthest, Gallus joined in and began throwing them in, Limestone Pie smiled at seeing the wagon filled. Fluttershy helped Tulip walk around her muscles twitched and she almost stumbled over, she held her up and had her walk around the farm and Cake Cream and Aroma held her up, White Mage joined them with Merrick and they tried to help him and Tulip move around, Arcana tried casting a spell to heal them but could not, Twilight Sparkle, Starlight Glimmer, and Sunset Shimmer then cast spells together and tried to heal the disabled ponies, they improved a little while Bright Smile and Joy Bringer remained the same,

"Um, you three missed two." Rainbow Dash reported,

"From what I've seen with people like them, regular exercise and a balanced diet works best, trying to take shortcuts and think of short-term healthy weight gain and loss doesn't help in the long run." Twilight Sparkle responded,

"How did you get her to lose weight, Pinkie?" Starlight Glimmer asked,

"I got lots of desserts loaded with fruits and nuts and put them in places where she had to move to get to them and let her listen to music so she could dance to it." Pinkie Pie answered,

"And the other guy?" Sunset Shimmer questioned,

"I had him eat more." Pinkie Pie stated,

"Pinkie Pie, maybe it'll be best if you let my parents help them get in shape." Weight Lifter suggested,

"What I did managed to work." Pinkie Pie replied,

"Maybe so, but you're not an experienced trainer like me and my wife." Powerlifter responded,

"You can still help us, from what my husband and I seen, it's alright to let them have their unhealthy sweet stuff in small doses daily so they don't have cravings." Callisthenics added,

"When Pinkie Pie tried to get me to lose weight, she cut white sugar out of my diet completely and I felt terrible." Bright Smile stated,

"See, there you go, small doses every day prevents that most of the time as well." Callisthenics spoke,

"What do you guys have in mind for me?" Joy Bringer asked,

"Hay and vegetables may work for you along with some moderate physical activity." Powerlifter stated,

"I'm no health and fitness expert like my parents, but I can tell you have no muscle and are weak." Weight Lifter observed,

"Those two can get in shape if they work on the farm." Limestone Pie remarked,

"She ain't wrong, Big Mac and I do traditional farmin', and look at how strong and fit we turned out." Applejack stated,

"Eeyup." Big Macintosh replied,

"Alright, everyone, looks like that's all, we're done for today." Limestone Pie spoke, and they stopped working and Limestone Pie moved the wagon out of the farm and came back with it empty,

"What do you do with those rocks, anyway?" Ocellus asked,

"I give them to the closest merchants and they sell them for whatever reason." Limestone Pie answered,

"Oh, wow, like anyone will want a pet rock." Gallus snarked,

"Most of the merchants sell the rocks as yard decoration." Limestone Pie corrected,

"Dragons wouldn't like rocks, too light and small for boulder throwing competitions." Smolder remarked,

"The rocks here are pretty boring for me, not much variety when compared to what we have underwater." Silverstream stated,

"I think you would like the different kinds of sticks my home has." Mudbriar remarked,

"I'd like to see one day." Silverstream chirped, Mudbriar smiled,

"Well, we're done working for today, in the house." Limestone Pie stated, and they went.

Everybody unwinded while Rock Candy went to the bathroom and Taco Bell farted more, Rarity exclaimed and almost fainted while Cloudy and Air Force struggled not to laugh, Taco Bell looked at them,

"Sorry, I always found farts funny ever since I was a filly." Cloudy said,

"Same." Air Force added,

"It was funny to me at first but it started to get old quickly." Taco Bell replied, he farted again and Granny Smith, Big Macintosh, Applejack, Apple Bloom, and Rainbow Dash chuckled while Twilight Sparkle's and Rarity's jaws' dropped,

"Ah know flatulence is uncouth and all, but it does give us a laugh on the farm sometimes." Applejack spoke,

"What?! There is absolutely no way that's allowed in high pony society, it is one of the worst possible things one can do." Rarity replied, Taco Bell farted again,

"What have you been eating, Taco Bell?" Melon Farmer asked,

"Daisy flower sandwiches, strawberries, kale, carrots, tomatoes, hay, zucchinis, brown rice, blueberries, grapes, pineapples, raspberries, celery, apricots, blackberries, watermelons, whole wheat bread, beets, ginger, cucumbers, baked potatoes, oatmeal, pineapples, green beans, apples, and raisins." Taco Bell answered,

"Wow, that's a lot to remember." Banana Tree remarked,

"Another reason I fart a lot is I'm lactose intolerant." Taco Bell said,

"Oh, me too, but I don't get bad gas in my case." Melon Farmer replied,

"Ya might wanna ease up on the oatmeal, though, that's known to be a fart producer." Applejack reminded,

"I don't eat much." Taco Bell responded, he farted again and several people tried not to laugh,

"I suppose tis okay as long he doth not disturb the people here." Cloudy Quartz said,

"It's still crowded in here, I think some of us will have to sleep outside." Doctor Whooves remarked,

"Can we have tents?" Derpy requested,

"Of course." Twilight Sparkle stated, and she made them appear outside, everybody went out while Pinkie Pie and her family slept in their home peacefully with Star Pony, Winter Blues, and Warm Heart.

Everybody slept peacefully until Star Pony and Warm Heart began having nightmares and they yelled and screamed in their sleep, everybody came in with Ross being led by Beethooven and Callas while Pinkie Pie shook Star Pony awake and Warm Heart sprung awake and tried to reach for a spear while panting heavily,

"What? What's going on, I only came because I saw everypony else running." Beethooven spoke, Pinkie Pie took a paper out of her mane that explained to Beethooven what was going on,

"What's going on?" Bow Hothoof asked,

"Nightmares of my past." Star Pony answered,

"Mine too." Warm Heart added,

"What about that guy laying there?" Windy Whistles questioned,

"I'm not in the mood to get up and do anything." Winter Blues replied,

"What's with him?" Hondo Flanks questioned,

"I already told you, depression." Pinkie Pie responded,

"Ya gotta work if ya wanna stay here, and like I said yesterday, it might help you get over it, too." Limestone Pie suggested,

"How?" Winter Blues asked,

"Maybe if you keep yourself busy, you won't have time to feel that way." Cookie Crumbles suggested,

"You can lay down and relax all you want when you retire like me." Mr. Shy stated,

"He's right, it's nice to have a long break and relax when one retires." Mrs. Shy added,

"Wish I could be like that." Zephyr Breeze lamented,

"Zephyr Breeze, his reason is different." Pinkie Pie replied,

"Did you ever feel a passion, Winter Blues?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"Used to." Winter Blues replied,

"It don't matter if you lost your passion or am burned out, you gotta work here regardless of how you feel." Limestone Pie said,

"I think every job's like that." Shining Armor replied,

"It's the same with my job, I have to work even on days when I don't want to." Princess Cadance said,

"I think every job that involves running and managing a town or kingdom is like that." Mayor Mare said,

"We'll go ahead and get breakfast ready, so you all go ahead and relax for now." Maud Pie spoke, and the family except for Pinkie Pie went to the kitchen. Drifter and Gilmore took Wilfred outside and began walking him around the farm, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, Maud Pie, and Mudbriar went outside and let their pets play around. Maud Pie and Mudbriar put Boulder and Twiggy together and they smiled, they noticed Fluttershy had many animals but she was able to control and command them easily, they moved with her and went around the farm's perimeter. Winona ran to Wilfred and barked happily, the two ran and played on the farm while tumbling around, they played rough while Drifter and Big Macintosh restrained them from getting too rough, they had fun while the others watched and smiled. The animals moved around on the rock farm and everything was peaceful, they were careful not to hit the rocks and everything went on fine, Maud Pie then came out of the house,

"Breakfast's ready." Maud Pie called out, and they went in. Everybody looked at the meals and they were a bunch of rocks,

"You... ate rocks as a child, Pinkie Pie?" Haute Coture asked,

"Yes." Pinkie Pie answered,

"How do you still have all of your teeth?" Tempo questioned,

"My teeth got sharper and harder slowly." Pinkie Pie explained,

"Wow, I never thought I'd see someone eating rocks for a living." Aquarius stated,

"Hey, us dragons eat gems." Spike reminded,

"That's different." Aquarius said,

"I guess we might as well try so we don't be rude by refusing." Rose stated, the others agreed and took a few rocks. Everybody tried to eat them but could not while Pinkie Pie and her family ate them easily, Winter Blues did not eat while Callas tried to help Ross, Punctual Organizer looked on nervously and then wondered about his own teeth, Pinkie Pie took the rocks and punched them into small pieces and then grinded them into powder with her front hoofs and handed them to the others. Everybody tried them but it tasted bad, Marble Pie dashed into the kitchen and came back with salt, she put it in the powder and everybody tried it and liked them better but Foster spat out the grinded rock powder and salt and threw the bowl across the room,

"Hey! I worked hard to make that!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed,

"So what?! I have to eat rocks for a living now! I might as well be homeless with no food at this point!" Foster fumed,

"You won't get anything if you act like that, be grateful we gave you a meal." Limestone Pie remarked,

"A meal made from rocks?! You'll give somepony mouth and teeth damage! You guys having guests is a question that won't be answered if you're going to make us sleep outside and feed us rocks!" Foster thundered,

"This is still their home! It is their way! You should be grateful they tried to give ya some hospitality instead of actin' like ya have a nest of hornets on yer behind!" Applejack scolded, Foster scoffed and picked up the bowl while everybody managed to finish and Pinkie Pie and her family washed the bowls,

"Um, can we have the things we did before we were teleported here like you did with Gilmore and the golf club yesterday, Princess Twilight?" Cake Cream requested, the others agreed and Pinkie Pie told Twilight Sparkle what they did and she made many items appear. Everybody looked at their things and Woodwind began playing her woodwind instruments immediately, she struggled with the bassoon and Beethooven and Callas helped her, she took the mouthpiece off after playing for about twenty minutes and took a deep breath, Rock Candy used the bathroom and everybody smelled the foul stench,

"Sorry, everyone." Rock Candy stated while blushing, Cloudy Quartz reached under the table and gave her garlic and cranberry juice. Treasure Hunter looked at a picture of his parents while Ainsworth stood by his side, Fiery Heart looked at a picture of her husband, Cool Head looked at a picture of his wife, Obsidian looked at a picture of Amethyst, Vulture, Dove, and Seamstress looked at a picture of Sky Glider, and Drifter looked at a picture of his wife while Pink Diamond, Gilmore, and Purple Grace looked at the picture of their mother while Gold Digger and Wilfred joined them,

"Wow, they all look sad." Derpy observed,

"All of them have lost somepony important to them." Pinkie Pie responded,

"That reminds me, Star Pony, is your younger brother here?" Limestone Pie asked,

"No, his grave is still at my old home." Star Pony answered while holding back tears, the others looked at him while he almost cried,

"You wanna go for a walk, Star Pony?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"Not right now." Star Pony said, she then walked to Pink Diamond, Gilmore, and Purple Grace,

"Did you brush your teeth this morning?" Pinkie Pie asked, they remained silent and began to run away,

"No!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed while running after them, Twilight Sparkle and Rarity held them with their telekinesis while Applejack tied a lasso around them,

"Oh, no, ya three don't, y'all should know better to obey a foalsitter." Applejack spoke, Rarity made a toothbrush with toothpaste appear and the three moved their heads away and she growled,

"Come on, you three, stop being stubborn." Twilight Sparkle spoke, and she made two more toothbrushes with toothpaste appear and brushed their teeth with her magic and then rinsed their mouths,

"There." Twilight Sparkle remarked,

"Well, I'll go ahead and start work, come with me, sisters." Limestone Pie stated, and she, Maud Pie, Pinkie Pie, and Marble Pie went outside. They worked on the farm while they heard music being played in the house, Beethooven came out and began trying to make new music while Ross and Callas stood by, he made more music with his instruments and the red and blue magic waves for singing voices and Callas adjusted the red wave to get the ideal female voice for his new music,

"That sounds good to you?" Beethooven asked, Callas nodded while smiling,

"As for the song, I'm visualizing an active scene with volcanoes erupting." Ross said,

"I still can't hear, Ross, you'll need to show me a draft for a background image if it is played at a concert." Beethooven spoke, and he tried to paint an erupting volcano,

"Oh, a volcanic eruption, indeed, a dramatic piece can use such intensity for visualization." Beethooven chirped, Ross chuckled,

"Can those who play musical instruments come out here please?" Beethooven requested, and DJ Pon-3, Octavia, Flower Viola, Fiddler, Angelique, Tempo, and Woodwind came out, DJ Pon-3 had a DJ table, Octavia had a cello, Flower Viola and Fiddler had violas, Angelique had a violin, Tempo had a trumpet, and Woodwind had a flute, a piccolo, an oboe, a clarinet, a recorder, and a bassoon,

"No, no, traditional instruments." Beethooven spoke, and DJ Pon-3 went back into the house,

"Oh, wow, I see you're learning various instruments, I'm going to need more players." Beethooven stated, Pinkie Pie dashed and held up the instruments while Woodwind took the flute,

"Okay, this isn't every instrument for my new song, but it'll have to do, let's give it a try, Ross and Callas will be acting as my ears." Beethooven spoke, and he began conducting and everybody played while reading the sheet music for their instruments. They played and they noticed more instruments being played out of Pinkie Pie, they saw her blowing into all of the remaining woodwind instruments while also hearing brass, percussion, and string instruments being played out of her, Callas looked around and became shocked when she was Pinkie Pie was also working on the rock farm, Beethooven looked and he had a shocked expression, they continued playing and Tempo and Woodwind stopped due to their lips hurting,

"Alright, let's stop here for now." Beethooven said as he did the signal to make them stop playing, Callas and Ross nodded while smiling,

"Excellent, I'll continue making the new song at this pace." Beethooven stated,

"I thought I heard somepony familiar." a stallion's voice said from behind Pinkie Pie, they looked and saw Earworm,

"How has my deaf rival been, oh, wait, you can't hear me, no point in asking you." Earworm stated,

"What do you want, Earworm?" Pinkie Pie inquired,

"So you're here, too, you'd be better off if you worked for me." Earworm spoke,

"No way." Pinkie Pie stated,

"Well, since you won't work for me then." Earworm commented, and he tried to take the sheet music and the others tried to take it back, he tried to fling them away with his telekinesis and Maud Pie noticed him messing with Pinkie Pie, she threw a rock at his head and he groaned and fell over,

"Thanks, Maud." Pinkie Pie said,

"You're welcome." Maud Pie replied,

"I am rather surprised to see him again to be honest." Octavia remarked,

"You know him?" Woodwind asked, Octavia nodded,

"He's my main rival, he played a sense stealing song and it took away my hearing." Beethooven explained,

"Why?" Angelique asked,

"It was so Earworm can try to win a competition on who can write the best song and played at a concert." Ross answered,

"Oh, so he tried to cheat." Woodwind commented,

"Yes, it gave Beethooven a life changing disability, too." Ross responded,

"What about you two?" Tempo asked, Callas shook her head,

"No, I lost my sight due to illness, I'm a painter, I helped make backgrounds for Beethooven's music back when I had my sight." Ross replied,

"What about the mare with you two? She's been silent the whole time." Angelique remarked, Callas opened her mouth and touched her own throat,

"Oh, you lost your voice?" Angelique questioned, Callas nodded,

"Callas was a singer before she lost her voice to illness." Pinkie Pie spoke, Callas nodded,

"That's too bad, I'd like to hear her sing." Woodwind said,

"Me too." Tempo added,

"Well, I think that's good enough for today, we'll resume practice another time." Beethooven stated, and they went in while Pinkie Pie resumed helping her sisters. The ponies went in and out of the house and Limestone Pie watched with an annoyed expression, she then saw Drifter come out of the house and he began working on the farm and she smiled, Sugar Rush began playing around a little but got work done,

"Come on, little brother, focus." Diary Farmer reprimanded, and he stopped, he still worked but was slower and looked down, Pinkie Pie trotted over and began throwing the rocks to him, he smiled and began jumping and kicked the rocks into the wagon, a lot of work got done and Marble Pie moved the rocks elsewhere after they were done and the Pie sisters began working in the next area. Flower Viola, Fiddler, and Gardener came out together and tried to spend time together as a family and go for a walk, Fiddler and Gardener did not interact much and tried to guide Flower Viola wherever they wanted to go,

"I think it would be best if you two let her go where she wants to go." Maud Pie suggested,

"Hmm-mm." Marble Pie said while nodding, and Flower Viola walked around,

"This place is boring." Flower Viola remarked,

"I agree." Gardener added,

"Sorry, but my family doesn't do variety and colorful for environment." Pinkie Pie stated,

"Shame, I can't sell flowers and plants in a place like this." Gardener remarked,

"Gardener, it's fine, I don't there's any bills to pay here." Fiddler replied,

"Nope, no bills to pay on this farm." Pinkie Pie answered,

"Hmm-mm." Marble Pie said while nodding,

"Can I take a look around this place, mommy and daddy?" Flower Viola requested,

"Yes, you may." Fiddler answered, Flower Viola smiled and trotted around, she did not see anything and she stopped smiling,

"Wow, there really is nothing here." Flower Viola remarked,

"Having no people to bother us has its benefits." Limestone Pie stated,

"Well, I guess we might as well go back in." Gardener said, and they did. Pinkie Pie and her sisters worked more and Butterfly Azalea came out and looked around, she walked around the place and stopped when she saw Master Carpenter, Bellflower, and Swordsmith coming,

"So this is where you were, the fact that you got a house while we were transported in the middle of nowhere is injustice in itself!" Bellflower fumed,

"It should be you that is homeless and struggling, not me." Swordsmith complained,

"That does it, to the woods you go!" Master Carpenter fumed, and he and Bellflower grabbed Butterfly Azalea,

"No!" Butterfly Azalea hollered, Ponyville's residents came out of the house and their eyes' widened,

"Well, well, well, you three were a few faces I was not wishing to see again." Mayor Mare stated,

"If you three want Butterfly Azalea, you'll have to deal with us." Roseluck remarked,

"YEAH!!" Bulk Biceps yelled,

"Unless you want us all to restrain and attack you guys, leave." Daisy remarked,

"Begone, you three are not welcome here." Lily Valley said, Pinkie Pie's other friends and her parents came out alongside Wilfred and the other animals, Discord then appeared,

"Any harm to my friend, Fluttershy, and you three will be in a world full of pain." Discord threatened,

"Is that... DISCORD?!" Bellflower exclaimed,

"Let's get out of here." Master Carpenter said, and he, Bellflower, and Swordsmith ran away. Flower Azalea sighed with relief while the others went to her,

"You alright, darling?" Rarity asked,

"Yeah, thanks." Butterfly Azalea stated,

"What was that about?" the filly Snowflake asked,

"When she and her family came to Ponyville, they played favorites, only the son can have gifts, celebrate his birthday, and so on while she couldn't, things came to a boiling point when they wouldn't let Pinkie throw a party to celebrate her birthday." Twilight Sparkle explained,

"Wow, sounds like a bad family, I have three kids myself, but I don't try to play favorites." Drifter remarked,

"As much as I hate to say this, they're not the only bad parents I've met, they're not the worst ones either." Pinkie Pie spoke,

"Who would be the worst parents you saw?" Silverstream asked,

"Star Pony's parents." Pinkie Pie replied, Star Pony froze in place,

"Guys, he's not looking good." the mare Snowflake answered,

"Come, Star Pony, in the house." Cloudy Quartz said, and they went. Pinkie Pie and Marble Pie worked in one part of the farm while Limestone Pie and Maud Pie worked in another part, they saw the filly Snowflake come out and she looked around for sometime, she stayed close to the house and then went to Pinkie Pie and Marble Pie,

"I feel comfortable near you, Pinkie." the filly Snowflake said,

"I can't interact with you right now, my sisters and I have a lot of work to do." Pinkie Pie spoke,

"Do you have anywhere around here where I can craft things with snow?" the filly Snowflake questioned,

"Mm-mm." Marble Pie said while shaking her head,

"We don't have snow here often, and even if we do, it's not much." Pinkie Pie stated,

"Oh, that's too bad." the filly Snowflake lamented,

"Go ahead and go around, Snowflake, my sister and I have to work." Pinkie Pie reminded, and she walked. The filly Snowflake walked around and noticed Limestone Pie had an annoyed expression while Maud Pie was completely emotionless, she decided not to visit them and noticed Sleet, Winter Fog, and Hailstorm watching her from afar, her eyes widened and they came out of hiding,

"So this is where you were, and that pink pony is with you again, you don't deserve love." Winter Fog stated,

"You're a disgrace to our family, you are terrible at our craft." Sleet added,

"This place is good, I can beat you up without going to jail here." Hailstorm remarked, the filly Snowflake looked on with shock and tried to run while her family ran after him, Twilight Sparkle cast a spell from inside the house and restrained them and everybody came out and they looked on in shock at the many people,

"So you three are here, too." Twilight Sparkle remarked,

"What the? So many people." Hailstorm commented,

"You won't be seeing them anymore, back to jail and juvenile hall you three go." Twilight Sparkle stated, and she teleported them there,

"Thank you." the filly Snowflake said,

"Yer welcome." Apple Bloom replied,

"So your family was like that, too." Butterfly Azalea commented,

"Hmm-mm, my family was almost exactly like yours." the filly Snowflake stated,

"Come on, I think it'd be best if you stay in for now." White Mage said, and they went in the house. The sisters were almost done working and Cloudy came out with new prosthetics that Twilight Sparkle have given her, she flew around the farm and practiced with them while Air Force and Rainbow Dash joined her, they finished when the sun began to set and Pinkie Pie and her family finished working and went into the house.

Igneous Rock Pie and Cloudy Quartz had dinner ready for them, they had rock soup and watched everybody trying to help Ice Blower be comfortable around girls and he quivered and breathed heavily when he was near them,

"S... Snowflake?" Ice Blower asked,

"Yes?" the mare Snowflake and the filly Snowflake said together,

"I'm referring to my wife." Ice Blower stated,

"Oh." the filly Snowflake said, and she went back to learning marine animals with Aquarius while the mare Snowflake went to him,

"What is it, dear?" the mare Snowflake asked,

"Can you stay near me please?" Ice Blower requested,

"Of course." the mare Snowflake answered,

"Look at that, he's getting better." Igloo stated,

"Yeah, maybe getting over his fear isn't completely undone after all." Penguin added,

"Good for us then, Ice Blower and his sister were wonderful additions to our family." Freeze chirped,

"Indeed, his family's ice business has truly helped us expand our own." Blizzard added,

"Maybe we can add that filly named Snowflake to our family crafts, too, there might be snow from our ice business for her to use." Frosty suggested,

"I'd appreciate that." the filly Snowflake replied,

"Don't forget that I'm here, too, Ice Blower." Snow reminded, Ice Blower nodded, they finished their dinner and did the dishes. Pinkie Pie noticed Star Pony looking out a window and looked down,

"Still thinking about your brother, Star Pony?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"Yes." Star Pony answered,

"You wanna go for a walk now?" Pinkie Pie suggested,

"Sure." Star Pony replied,

"Abide wh're thou can be seen." Igneous Rock Pie instructed, and he went outside. Star Pony walked around the farm a little and stopped when he saw Strong Muscle and Mind Breaker in front of him and Strong Muscle had a knife and a whip with a metal ball on its tip with him,

"I knew you'd come here, you didn't come home on time last night." Mind Breaker stated,

"Stupid as always, you're just like your little brother, he did the same thing once, you will get the same discipline as him." Strong Muscle said, and they chased him and he tried to run. They caught up to him easily and Mind Breaker held him down and Strong Muscle began to whip his back, he screamed loudly and Strong Muscle began using his knife, Igneous Rock Pie shot at them with his shotgun while Lee shot at them with his rifle, Arcana shot red, blue, yellow, and green blasts out of her horn and Drifter ran outside while the door flew open, he pointed at them and Wilfred ran after them while barking angrily, their eyes' widened and they sprinted away while Wilfred stopped and barked at them. Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Gallus, Smolder, Yona, Igneous Rock Pie, Limestone Pie, Maud Pie, Big Macintosh, Bulk Biceps, Air Force, Cool Head, Lee, Cake Cream, Aroma, Thunderstorm, Foster, Powerlifter, Callisthenics, and Warm Heart went after them,

"They've found this place again, we have to be on guard, they're gonna come back again." Pinkie Pie warned, Star Pony laid on the ground and cried,

"*gasp* He's been stabbed!" Angelique exclaimed, White Mage and Zhivago ran to him and examined him, everybody looked on in horror at seeing bruises and cuts all over his back and a stab wound in his abdomen, they heard loud beatings up ahead and the others came back with Strong Muscle and Mind Breaker,

"I did not wish to see thou two again." Cloudy Quartz remarked,

"Listen to you, too stupid to speak regular pony tongue as always." Mind Breaker said,

"We were doing the right thing." Strong Muscle stated,

"Right thing how?" Sunburst inquired,

"He's a disgrace to exist and a waste of breath like his younger brother, killing him like how we killed his brother would be doing this world a favor." Mind Breaker explained, everybody's except Maud Pie's and Beethooven's jaws' dropped,

"I've heard enough from Pinkie Pie and seen Star Pony to know about you two, to jail, you two go." Twilight Sparkle said,

"No, we already tried that before, it didn't work." Limestone Pie reminded,

"They broke out and tried to come here to attack us in the name of revenge." Maud Pie added,

"Hmm-mm." Marble Pie said while nodding,

"What did you guys do last time?" Thunderstorm asked,

"We... had to go the full measure with them." Pinkie Pie answered,

"Oh, that sucks, maybe that would be for the best." Rainstorm stated while everybody looked at them,

"Please... kill them, they won't stop coming after me if you don't." Star Pony requested while struggling to speak, most had shocked expressions,

"I agree, from what I've seen with people like them, there is no changing or convincing them." Warm Heart added,

"I'll kill all of you if and when I get out of jail." Strong Muscle declared,

"You're welcome to try." Boxer threatened while cracking his right front hoof,

"Make that two." Knock Out added, Strong Muscle and Mind Breaker eyes' widened when they saw just how many people were surrounding them,

"Well?" Arcana asked,

"Get rid of them, jail's not gonna hold them for long." Limestone Pie said, and Arcana shot a big blast out of her horn and they screamed while getting obliterated, everybody looked on speechless except for Ross,

"Come on, let's treat him." Zhivago said, and they went in the house. Twilight Sparkle, Zecora, White Mage, Zhivago, and Arcana examined Star Pony's wounds and tried to treat him while Angelique, Tempo, Haute Coture, Aquarius, Taco Bell, and the filly Snowflake stood by him and tried to comfort him,

"How is he, Doctor Zhivago?" Angelique asked,

"They're not deep and he's stable, he should be fine for now." Zhivago replied,

"Anymore annoyances we should be known about?" Foster questioned,

"There's that gang of thirteen stallions that haven't been here yet, and the many enemies Warm Heart has made throughout his life." Pinkie Pie responded, Warm Heart panted heavily and sweated while thinking about them,

"Were you in a bad family too or something?" Smolder asked,

"Bad family? Bad family?! Do I look like a bad family is all I had?! I have enemies everywhere! Family! Neighborhood! School! Hospitals! Juvenile Hall! Prison! Military! Work! I can't get permanent employment now and am stuck doing temporary odd jobs because of them! It's their fault and their behavior and lies that have gotten me suspended, expelled, a dishonorable discharge, arrested and given a criminal record, and injuries to the point where I can't move normally in every day life!" Warm Heart ranted,

"Warm Heart, you're scaring the foals." Gold Digger warned,

"They should be! With the enemies I made, you're not safe anywhere! All I had was rage, sadness, and hatred until Pinkie Pie came into my life." Warm Heart responded while calming down at the end,

"I know that feeling." Foster said,

"If you ask me, Foster, his anger issues are worse than yours." Haute Coture commented,

"I can still understand how royal guard life can make one angry." Foster responded,

"You said it, there's been times when I experienced lots of frustrations with my commanders before I became the captain." Shining Armor spoke,

"My case was me not getting along with the people stationed with me and local dragons." Warm Heart stated,

"It's unfortunate when that happens, I couldn't get along with my fellow royal guards at times either." Cool Head stated,

"Neither could I." Zhivago added,

"The Wonderbolts are like that sometimes, too, guys." Rainbow Dash spoke,

"Truth be told, I think every profession's like that." Dark Mane said,

"Agreed, there's always drama and conflict no matter where you go." Bright Coat added,

"In my and Knock Out's professions, we beat the tar out of them." Boxer said,

"You can't do that at most jobs." Cake Cream reminded,

"Like ours, we'd be fired if we picked a fight with an unsatisfied client." Aroma spoke,

"As a fellow party thrower and party planner, I can confirm that." Pinkie Pie said,

"So can I, it's hard to restrain yourself sometimes though." Cheese Sandwich added,

"That reminds me, speaking of your profession, have you kept up with everything we taught you, Pinkie Pie?" Double Joint asked,

"I'm trying, there are some things I'm still struggling with." Pinkie Pie responded,

"Wait, they're your mentors, Pinkie Pie?" Rose asked,

"Yup, they taught me tricks and the things I use when I throw parties and entertain people." Pinkie Pie replied,

"What do you still need help with?" Tati asked, Pinkie Pie told them and he showed her to do the trick where she guesses a pony's chosen card right, he then showed her the doves and the illusion on how to look like he divided a dove in half and had two doves, the others except for Ross clapped, he also showed her to use the invisible thread and how to keep track of it and she controlled the doves,

"Okay, that's good, thanks, Tati. I'm still struggling with all of your craft, Houdini." Pinkie Pie reported,

"I'll see what I can show you with my limited resources." Houdini replied, and they started. They got tied to a chair at first and Pinkie Pie struggled to free herself while Houdini showed her how to loosen the knots and slide out of them, everybody except Ross clapped, they did straitjackets next and Pinkie Pie grunted and struggled while Houdini freed himself easily and everybody's jaws' dropped,

"What's going on?" Ross asked,

"Houdini just escaped out of a straitjacket." Aquarius replied,

"Oh, wow." Ross said, Pinkie Pie grunted and could not get out of it,

"Hold on, darling." Rarity stated, and she and Twilight Sparkle took it off of her with their magic,

"I'm still having trouble with it." Pinkie Pie lamented,

"It's fine, Pinkie Pie, the straitjacket's never easy to pull off." Houdini responded,

"I haven't been able to pull off the milk can escape very well, either." Pinkie Pie stated,

"That's a hard one, too, it's uncomfortable in there as well." Houdini explained,

"It really is." Pinkie Pie added,

"A milk can?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"I can escape out of one of those old big milk cans that we used to use." Houdini stated,

"Oh, that, I've never seen that before." Twilight Sparkle spoke,

"It's not easy." Houdini answered,

"Another thing is in you're put in the milk can with chains and cuffs on you to restrain you as well, water is poured into it to fill it up, too." Pinkie Pie added,

"Whoa there, restrained with chains and cuffs and filled with water? That's dangerous." Applejack said,

"It's why the audience loved it when my partners and I were very popular." Houdini replied,

"What else do you escape from?" Cheese Sandwich asked,

"A coffin was a popular one." Houdini answered,

"That one scared me at first." Pinkie Pie stated,

"What's it like?" Pipsqueak asked,

"I lay in a coffin restrained and there's a burning rope, if I don't escape before the rope burns, the coffin's lid closes, there's nails on the lid's inside, too." Houdini explained, everybody except Beethooven and Maud Pie had shocked expressions,

"I never did your hardest trick when throwing parties and entertaining others, Houdini." Pinkie Pie said embarrassingly,

"It's fine, that one's very dangerous, too." Houdini responded,

"What is it?" Truffle asked,

"Getting out of a coffin and the ground after being buried alive and chained and restrained inside it." Houdini answered, everybody except Beethooven and Maud Pie reeled back in shock,

"Say what now?" Apple Bloom exclaimed,

"Golly, that sounds dangerous." Applejack said,

"It is." Houdini responded,

"I don't blame Pinkie for not doing it, but it would be nice to see it at least once." Twilight Sparkle said,

"Maybe I can show you all instead." Houdini suggested, the others agreed. Duo walked over with his puppets Fido and Dandy,

"Have you been keeping up with my talents, Pinkie Pie?" Duo asked,

"Yes, I do ventriloquism pretty often." Pinkie Pie said,

"Let's see if you're still as good as when I finished training you." Duo stated, and he gave her his puppets. Pinkie Pie moved Fido and Dandy around and tried to converse with them,

"Hey, Fido, you remember me, right?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"Oh, great, you again, you're one person I wasn't hoping I'd see again." Fido remarked,

"Fido, that isn't very nice, I missed you." Pinkie Pie said,

"Well, I didn't miss you, my life was happier when you left." Fido stated,

"Were you lonely with just Duo and Dandy?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"No, it was nice and quiet with just those two, you made things so loud and annoying." Fido spoke,

"Okay, Fido, back in your home, you go." Pinkie Pie remarked,

"No, I'm not done yet." Fido protested but was put aside,

"Hiya, Dandy, long time, no see." Pinkie Pie chirped,

"Ah, Pinkie Pie, long time, no see, m'lady." Dandy said while bowing,

"How have you been?" Pinkie Pie questioned,

"I have been fine, though the afterlife was a bit too quiet for my liking." Dandy stated,

"Look around you, you have a big audience now." Pinkie Pie said,

"I see that, the audience I used to have at the height of my and my partners' popularity was much bigger than this." Dandy replied,

"Can you sing or recite a poem?" Pinkie Pie requested,

"I'd love to, but I haven't acted in years, so I'm rusty, maybe another time after my voice and skills are warmed up." Dandy spoke,

"Okay, let us know when you're ready." Pinkie Pie said,

"I will, I'll be going now, it was a pleasure to see you again, Pinkie Pie." Dandy remarked,

"Okay, it was nice to see you again, too, Dandy, see ya." Pinkie Pie replied, and she set him aside, everybody except Igneous Rock Pie, Cloudy Quartz, Limestone Pie, Maud Pie, and Beethooven clapped,

"Very good, Pinkie Pie, you're as good as I remember." Duo said,

"I don't do it often since I found singing with puppets and myself to be difficult." Pinkie Pie stated,

"I understand, juggling between two or three voices is hard on its own." Duo remarked,

"While it nice to hear from time to time, it is not easy to master the way of rhyme." Zecora stated,

"A zebra? You all speak in rhymes, perhaps you would make a good poet and songwriter." Duo suggested,

"Although it is nice to do poems and songs when there are no times of strife, it is not something I wish to do for my entire life." Zecora replied,

"Understandable, I get burnt out sometimes, too." Duo spoke,

"Next up is Bozo, I still need help with some of your balloon animals and bubble magic." Pinkie Pie said,

"Which ones in particular?" Bozo questioned,

"The monkey, the elephant, the teddy bear, the camel, and some of your bubble magic." Pinkie Pie stated,

"Bubble magic?" Trixie asked, Bozo blew up several long balloons and showed Pinkie Pie how to make the animals, she did them slowly and then tried them quickly but messed up,

"Another time. Which bubble magic do you need help with?" Bozo questioned,

"The love bubble, the caterpillar bubble, and the bubble cube." Pinkie Pie responded,

"Ah, watch closely." Bozo instructed, and she did. He blew two bubbles with two bubble blowers and inhaled smoke from a fog machine and then blew the second one, he moved the two slowly and carefully until they merged together,

"Oh, that's why I can't get it, I'm hitting them together too fast and too hard." Pinkie Pie remarked,

"Good, now the caterpillar bubble." Bozo said, and he blew bubbles through his two bubble blowers and altered between regular bubbles and smoke bubbles, the others except Igneous Rock Pie, Cloudy Quartz, Limestone Pie, Maud Pie, and Ross clapped,

"Alright, I'll now show you how to do the bubble cube." Bozo stated, and he blew six bubbles together and then blew smoke into it to form a cube in the center of them, almost everybody's except for Maud Pie's and Ross' jaws' dropped and they clapped,

"That is awesome!" Rainbow Dash praised,

"Marvelous!" Rarity chirped,

"What's going on?" Ross asked,

"Bozo just blew six bubbles together and blew smoke in the center of them to make a cube." Rose explained,

"Ah, very impressive." Ross spoke, and he clapped,

"If you need me to teach you anything, Pinkie Pie, we're going to need more room for some of them." Back Flip spoke,

"I can do the basics." Pinkie Pie stated,

"Alright, let's see if you've need a refresher or not." Back Flip said, and Pinkie Pie did somersaults, backflips, and side flips, the others clapped,

"Good job, you don't need a refresher on the basics after all." Back Flip spoke, Double Joint then walked forward,

"Have you kept up with my talent, Pinkie Pie?" Double Joint asked,

"Trying, yours is really hard for me to do." Pinkie Pie answered,

"Let's see how well you can do." Double Joint stated, and he began bending and contorting his body in unnatural ways while most ponies watched with shock, Pinkie Pie tried to mimic him,

"Ow!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed, and she gave up soon afterwards,

"I see, you always did have trouble with my talent, I think one reason is because you're not double jointed like how I am." Double Joint deduced,

"Just who are you guys?" Emerald questioned,

"We were a troupe of performers called The Entertainers, we used to be very popular fifty to sixty years ago, but we are no longer famous and in demand due to unicorns and Pegasi taking over the business with their magic and flight." Tati explained,

"We taught Pinkie Pie our crafts since she was in high demand for throwing and doing parties so our talents would not be forgotten." Houdini added,

"Oh, wow, you guys have my thanks then, she was the one who inspired me to become a party planner and party thrower in the first place." Cheese Sandwich explained,

"Oh, look at that, it seems we have succeeded." Duo said,

"I remember you guys, I used to see posters of you six when I was younger." Cool Head stated,

"What bout you, Granny?" Applejack questioned,

"Sure do, though Ah wasn't able to get tickets and they never performed in or near Ponyville." Granny Smith responded,

"Considering how our talent and popularity have faded and been mostly forgotten, performing in Ponyville to make money would seem likely now." Bozo remarked,

"The Great and Powerful Trixie might be able to find a place for you six in her shows like how I did with Starlight Glimmer." Trixie suggested,

"Hmm, unicorn, blue coat, white mane and tail, stage magician, do you happen to be related to Jack Pot?" Bozo questioned,

"Jack Pot? Who's Jack Pot?" Trixie asked,

"Hmm, maybe not." Double Joint stated,

"So, is there anything else to do, Pinkie Pie?" Twinkle Sparkle asked,

"No, that's all for now, my sisters and I have to get back to work soon." Pinkie Pie replied, Limestone Pie looked outside,

"It is around that time, let's go, sisters." Limestone Pie commanded, and they went outside.

Pinkie Pie and Marble Pie moved the light and broken rocks while Limestone Pie and Maud Pie moved the big and heavy rocks, Marble Pie made noises of distress while poking Pinkie Pie's side, she pointed and her eyes popped out of their sockets when she saw Greenie Gaz, Pear, Tiger Bench, Thumbscrew, Rack, Iron Spider, Bamboo, Iron Maiden, Spanish Donkey, Brazen Bull, Crocodile Shears, Blood Eagle, and Necktie hiding and watching them from afar, they ran forward and began throwing Molotov cocktails at the farm and Lee shot at them with his rifle from inside the house. The thirteen stallions ran to Pinkie Pie and Limestone Pie and Maud Pie punched and bucked Pear, Thumbscrew, Rack, and Bamboo, they grunted as they flew several yards away, everybody came out of the door while the stallions tried to stab Pinkie Pie and her sisters with knives or beat them with sticks, Twilight Sparkle restrained them with her magic while Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Big Macintosh, Bulk Biceps, Air Force, Fiery Heart, Cool Head, Fiddler, Gardener, Drifter, Gold Digger, Wilfred, Boxer, Knock Out, Lightning Strike, Foster, Zhivago, Powerlifter, Callisthenics, Arcana, Warm Heart, and Love Giver went to go fight them while Greenie Gaz and his gang's eyes' widened. They were attacked and restrained by all of them while they tried to use various weapons but they did not help much since Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Big Macintosh, Bulk Biceps, Boxer, Knock Out, and Lightning Strike punched and broke them, they were tied up with magical restraints and chains,

"I knew you all would show up eventually." Pinkie Pie remarked,

"To think my gang and I would run into you again." Greenie Gaz sneered,

"You unfunny and boring pony, Greenie Gaz knew true comedy." Pear remarked,

"To see Obsidian and Rose as well, we should've killed you two years ago." Tiger Bench stated,

"To jail you thirteen go." Twilight Sparkle said,

"So you're here, too, we should've killed you, too." Thumbscrew remarked,

"So are the others from that town, to think we'd see you all again." Rack said,

"I am not pleased to see you all again either." Mayor Mare replied,

"We should've burned your town to the ground." Iron Spider fumed,

"Should've killed you all, too." Bamboo added,

"We would've made your deaths slow and painful like Amethyst's." Iron Maiden spoke,

"You are a bunch of sickos, I'm not taking my chances with you thirteen." Twilight Sparkle remarked,

"I don't care you're royalty, I'll kill you when I get out of jail." Spanish Donkey declared,

"So will I, we'll kill your family, too, starting with the youngest family member." Brazen Bull added, Flurry Heart growled while her horn glowed,

"A baby? Good, it'll make it more fun." Crocodile Shears remarked, Flurry Heart glared harder and her horn's aura got bigger,

"You think we'd be scared of a baby?" Blood Eagle questioned,

"You won't be so tough after we beat you with our sticks." Necktie remarked, Flurry Heart panicked and hid behind Princess Cadance while others looked at them in horror,

"That does it, I'm not taking risks with you thirteen." Shining Armor declared, and he shot a big blast out of his horn and obliterated all thirteen of them while they screamed,

"Good riddance." Lee said,

"Agreed, they were nothing but trouble." Obsidian added,

"I lost my parents because of them." Rose lamented,

"Anymore problem people we need to know about?" Limestone Pie questioned,

"That would only leave Warm Heart's enemies, but he has more than the others combined." Pinkie Pie answered,

"Oh, great, that's what I wanted to hear." Limestone Pie complained,

"Um, Pinkie Pie, don't forget my bullies and teachers." Rock Candy reminded,

"Don't forget my bullies, either." Tulip added,

"Or mine." Flower Viola remarked,

"How many bullies are we talking?" Diary Farmer asked,

"A whole school." Rock Candy answered, Flower Viola and Tulip nodded in agreement,

"The spell I cast was to mostly bring one's friends back and see them all again, I doubt it would bring back that many enemies and haters even though it's not fully polished yet." Twilight Sparkle stated,

"Will they come back when the spell gets undone?" Apple Bloom questioned,

"Most likely, the enemies here will likely be wherever they were in their lives before the spell was cast whenever I do undo it." Twilight Sparkle responded,

"When will that be?" Limestone Pie inquired,

"I don't know, but I'm working on it." Twilight Sparkle replied,

"Well, hurry up, I'm tired of all of these people on my farm." Limestone Pie remarked,

"I can make it worse if I'm rushed." Twilight Sparkle warned,

"Just get it done." Limestone Pie snapped,

"I agree, I hate this place, even the place where I live was more comfortable than this." Foster fumed,

"Okay, guys, we get it, no one likes it here, just give us time to figure out what to do and everyone will be sent back." Spike stated,

"You all know we can leave and try to find your ways back, right?" Boxer suggested,

"No, I looked around while flying above here, there's no civilization in sight and every direction looks the same, getting lost here is going to be easy." Cloudy remarked,

"Look at that, in the middle of nowhere, that's just great, I might as well be in the afterlife right now after all." Boxer remarked,

"Maybe you're asleep there right now." Knock Out suggested,

"Wouldn't be surprised if I am, but this sure is one dull dream if that's the case." Boxer replied,

"Enough, if you're just going to make snarky comments and not work here, the exit's all around you." Limestone Pie stated,

"Does throwing rocks around count?" Boxer asked,

"Just don't hit anybody." Limestone Pie stated,

"*chuckle* He talks almost like the ol' farmers that are Granny's age or a decade younger." Applejack said,

"What? You mean to say there are some places where such rude talking is common?!" Rarity exclaimed,

"Ya got that right, he'd fit right in with farmers that are mah parents' or Granny's age, ain't that right, Big Mac?" Applejack asked,

"Eeyup." Big Macintosh answered,

"People who talked like him made everybody laugh back in the day, Ah guess youngins don't find 'em as funny." Granny Smith remarked,

"Actually, my family and I are from the upper crust of Equestrian society, nopony would've found him funny." Twilight Sparkle answered,

"She's right, to us, he would've been very annoying." Night Light added,

"Well, excuse me for not being fluent in rich big city pony tongue." Boxer spoke,

"Oh, how rude." Rarity remarked,

"Hopefully, that'll be the last threat here, I'll go ahead and continue trying to make a counterspell to the one I cast." Twilight Sparkle said, and everybody got on with their days. Pinkie Pie and her sisters worked more while Cloudy flew around the farm and tried to fly faster, Rainbow Dash and Air Force helped her fly with her new prosthetics, she got faster with each lap and Pinkie Pie watched her while smiling and quickly went back to work. She worked more and saw the other ponies coming outside to have fun, Limestone Pie's attention got caught when she saw Punctual Organizer near Holder's Boulder,

"Hey! What are you doing near Holder's Boulder?!" Limestone Pie inquired,

"I'm a bit bothered with it being here, I think this place would look better if it was in the very center of the fields." Punctual Organizer explained,

"While I understand it from an artistic view, it's there for practical reasons." Maud Pie said,

"Don't touch it." Limestone Pie stated, and she and her sisters continued working while Punctual Organizer got his supplies and began making miniature statues. Weight Lifter, Powerlifter, and Callisthenics came out later and had Bright Smile and Joy Bringer work on the farm, they panted heavily while Bright Smile sweated a lot, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Big Macintosh, and Bulk Biceps helped them move around and pick up the bigger and heavier rocks, Joy Bringer struggled to pick up most of the rocks and needed help, he and Bright Smile walked around and Bright Smile got tired faster and was slower while Joy Bringer could not pick up some of the rocks, they did a little work and then went back in with their helpers. The day went on and Ice Blower went out to them and quivered in fear and moved away from the Pie sisters,

"Ice Blower, you'll be in the way of our work if you act like that." Maud Pie reminded, Ice Blower moved towards Pinkie Pie slowly while breathing heavily and she and Marble Pie smiled, he moved towards them and Pinkie Pie rubbed his head, he flinched a little,

"It's okay, Ice Blower, I'm still same ol' Pinkie." Pinkie Pie reassured, he got on her back and she smiled while he held onto her, she worked with no problem and the day proceeded as normal. Warm Heart came out while panting and walked forward with his guard up, he had trouble and did not see anybody yet, he and the Pie sisters heard walking and looked, Pinkie Pie's eyes widened when she saw Forewoman and Blueprint,

"Well, our idiot little brother was here after all." Forewoman said, Warm Heart put his guard up but his injuries almost made him fall over,

"What's wrong, little brother? Too weak to stand up properly?" Blueprint questioned,

"What do you two want?" Warm Heart inquired,

"This your new home? Knew you couldn't pay your bills on time." Forewoman remarked,

"Looks like you're unemployed now, too." Blueprint added,

"It's not like that." Warm Heart said,

"No matter, we'll make sure you won't be able to find employment again." Forewoman replied, and she and Blueprint tried to attack him, Warm Heart tried to hold them back but his injuries made him fall over and they began kicking and stomping him, he tried to fling them away while growling loudly for a seconds until Limestone Pie threw a rock at Forewoman's head and Maud Pie threw a rock at Blueprint's head, they got hit and fell onto the ground while moaning and became unconscious. The others came out while Warm Heart panted heavily, he got defensive and snarled while showing his teeth,

"Whoa, y'all, give him some space, he's got that wild look right now." Applejack remarked,

"I know that look anywhere, I've seen it in the royal guard, it's when somepony has had enough for being the victim of misfortune and they have snapped." Foster explained,

"Give him some space, y'all, he'll calm down after sometime." Granny Smith instructed,

"What do you think he got into?" Snips asked,

"Who knows, but it probably wasn't good." Snails answered,

"Leave him be for now, guys, royal guards who snap like him are often dangerous." Shining Armor said, and they went back in while Warm Heart panted heavily and with short breaths, he looked around while enraged but calmed down after about seven minutes, he sighed and went back into the house. Pinkie Pie and her sisters worked a little bit more and watched for anymore people coming onto the farm but no one else came, Pinkie Pie sighed with relief that Letter's and Number's teachers and Rock Candy's, Flower Viola's, and Tulip's bullies did not arrive, they put away everything and went back into the house.

They went back in and Pinkie Pie's eyes widened when she saw Beethooven was conducting music, Ross' vision was back and his eyes were brown, and Callas was singing,

"Wow, you three got your senses back!" Pinkie Pie chirped,

"Indeed, your friend Twilight Sparkle here brought them back." Beethooven replied,

"I can paint again now, I'll paint a new picture of nature soon." Ross remarked,

"I can finally sing again, and my voice is still at its peak after not singing for so long." Callas stated,

"Your voice is marvelous, you could've been a part of the Pony Tones in Ponyville." Rarity said,

"I appreciate the offer, but I like singing solo." Callas answered,

"*chuckle* I think a recording will do." Rarity stated,

"Only one we haven't been able to help with their stuff is Winter Blues over there." Twilight Sparkle said as she pointed to him, Pinkie Pie looked at him and saw him laying on the floor,

"Oh, Winter Blues' depression is a stubborn one, he'd rather just lay down all day than do anything." Pinkie Pie explained,

"Tell me about it, he won't even fix or style his mane and tail nor shave and groom his stubble and patches of hair on his face." Rarity stated,

"He was worse when I first met him." Pinkie Pie responded,

"How so?" Rarity questioned,

"He had papers, bed sheets, blankets, and books scattered all over his floor, his sink was filled with unwashed dishes, frying pans, cast irons, and silverware, his violin and piano were left out, and his sheet music, paintings, and stories were unfinished and also scattered everywhere." Pinkie Pie answered, Rarity exclaimed in shock,

"Come on, Winter Blues, you gotta move." Pinkie Pie said,

"I'm not in the mood to." Winter Blues replied,

"You'll only get worse if you stay that way." Pinkie Pie warned,

"I'll get stuff done when I feel like it." Winter Blues remarked,

"Winter Blues, if you have a job like mine, you can't do that, you have to work even if you don't want to." Fluttershy explained,

"Ya can't do that with mine, either, workin' and operatin' a farm requires daily work even when ya don't want to." Applejack added,

"Mine is like that, too, darling, running a shop means I can't rest, there's also the fact that I have a shop outside Ponyville as well." Rarity stated,

"My job's like that, too, working the weather factory is a daily chore with no days off, you can't laze off there like how you are now, Winter Blues." Rainbow Dash said,

"I have to work every single day, even when I'm tired and don't want to, I have to throw a party almost daily and have many birthdays and holidays to memorize, I have to help Mayor Mare organize files in her office, too, so I'm pulling double duty." Pinkie Pie stated,

"And that's not even getting into my job, Winter Blues, as a princess of this country, I have lots of paperwork and events to attend and fill out, I have to fight on the front lines and protect Equestria from threats as well, I'm also a librarian, so I'm basically working three jobs every day, and I have no breaks or day offs ever unless Spike or Starlight Glimmer here decide to fill in for me and let me rest for the day." Twilight Sparkle explained,

"Wow, I would've been burned out and lost my passion in things much earlier if that was my life." Winter Blues commented,

"You could always try something relaxing like me and my girlfriend here by having an interest in rocks and sticks." Mudbriar suggested,

"Those aren't really my things." Winter Blues said,

"Well, stop laying around, you're in the way." Limestone Pie stated,

"You can try making friends here, Winter Blues, you're not the only painter and musician here." Pinkie Pie reminded,

"I'll try to remember that." Winter Blues replied,

"What instrument do you play, Winter Blues?" Tempo asked,

"Violin and piano." Winter Blues answered,

"Ooh, maybe you can play with me and my mom." Flower Viola suggested,

"What do you two play?" Winter Blues asked,

"Viola." Fiddler answered,

"Hmm, I'll think about it, I'll rest a little more for now." Winter Blues said,

"Well, hurry up and get out of your dump, you're in the way for the time being." Limestone Pie remarked,

"Give it time, Limestone, his spark will come back eventually." Pinkie Pie reassured,

"Well, it better be soon." Limestone Pie replied,

"Let us prepare to rest, 'tis late." Igneous Rock Pie said, and they all got ready for bed and the visitors slept in tents outside while Pinkie Pie and her family slept in the house.

The next morning came and everybody came into the house and it became overcrowded, Star Pony groaned while in pain and Angelique sang a lullaby to him while White Mage and Zhivago monitored him, Twilight Sparkle used her magic to make healthy meals appear and he ate slowly and Shining Armor and Princess Cadance tried to help him, Pinkie Pie helped Merrick and Tulip move around while Fluttershy tried to comfort Warm Heart after waking up from another nightmare, Rarity helped Haute Coture on making clothes and also sampled some of Arcana's wine, Fiery Heart went over to Obsidian, Rose, Vulture, and Dove and saw them looking pictures of their loved ones,

"Wow, you all lost foals you all loved, I lost my husband before I could get pregnant." Fiery Heart stated while almost crying,

"You were going to be a mother?" Vulture questioned,

"Yes, my husband and I had a baby shower planned and everything." Fiery Heart answered,

"It was never easy for her, she came to Pinkie Pie's workplace sometimes and me and my apprentice here had to console her sometimes." Mrs. Cake stated,

"She was a wreck when she came, but she does seem better than last time." Sugar Belle added,

"It was sad to see, I always hoped Fiery Heart would recover over time." Mr. Cake spoke,

"I did, but when I came here, I suddenly miss him deeply again." Fiery Heart explained,

"You weren't the only one, my wife here and I suddenly miss our late son very deeply again, too." Vulture said,

"It seems all of us miss our dead loved ones." Obsidian deduced,

"I never got over my wife's death." Cool Head responded,

"Me neither, it made taking care of my kids a lot harder, too." Drifter said,

"That reminds me, you children have behaved well overall, Drifter, unlike the troublemakers they were when I had to foalsit them." Pinkie Pie reported while looking at them and glaring slightly, Pink Diamond, Gilmore, and Purple Grace smiled nervously,

"I think it's because there's a lot more people here, and I think they've noticed that me and Limestone are not as patient or forgiving as you are, Pinkie." Maud Pie deduced,

"Maybe, if they do misbehave and cause trouble, Gilmore is the biggest troublemaker of the three." Pinkie Pie warned,

"I wonder if him being the middle child has something to do with it." Twilight Sparkle deduced,

"It's possible, from my own experiences with foalsitting, middle children tend to be the hardest." Princess Cadance added,

"I'll go ahead and make meals with my sisters, we'll be back." Pinkie Pie stated, and she and her family went to the kitchen. They made rock soup while the others had various meals that Twilight Sparkle made appear, everybody got on with their days and Twilight Sparkle and Cheerilee helped Letter and Number read; Beethooven, Octavia, Flower Viola, Fiddler, Tempo, Winter Blues, and Woodwind tried playing a song while Callas sang; Cloudy tried to help Merrick and Tulip move properly; Cloudy Quartz gave Rock Candy garlic and cranberry juice that she pulled out of thin air; the mare Snowflake and the filly Snowflake stood near Ice Blower and he got more comfortable around them; Angelique, White Mage, and Zhivago helped Star Pony walk properly while Warm Heart and Foster talked about their lives and past experiences with him; Ross painted a picture while Bozo juggled and threw to the painting supplies to Back Flip, he then did a back flip and threw them to Double Joint, he bent his lower-body over his own upper-body and threw the supplies to Ross, he chuckled and then painted with them; Ainsworth gave Treasure Hunter and Emerald some jewels to look at and they had fun appraising them; Fiery Heart, Cool Head, Obsidian, Rose, Vulture, Dove, Drifter, Pink Diamond, Gilmore, and Purple Grace talked about their deceased loved ones while Lee, Seamstress, Gold Digger, and Wilfred joined them; Rarity helped Haute Coture make new clothes; Maud Pie gave tips to Emerald on identifying rocks and telling them apart from gems; Princess Cadance gave Aquarius a book on marine animals; Bright Smile and Joy Bringer tried to get to healthy weights with Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Granny Smith, Bulk Biceps, Weight Lifter, Powerlifter, and Callisthenics giving them advice; Tati, Houdini, Duo, and Bozo did their tricks to entertain others and Trixie, Starlight Glimmer, and Cheese Sandwich worked with them to try to make new tricks; Melon Farmer, Melon Harvester, and Melon Crops tried to help Taco Bell with his diet while Banana Tree, Cavendish, and Lady Fingers also shared what Banana Tree had to eat to stay healthy; Fluttershy, Boxer, and Knock Out tried to help Arcana sleep more; Night Light gave Punctual Organizer advice on how to manage his thoughts; Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Pipsqueak, Truffle, Snips, Snails, Diamond Tiara, and Silver Spoon played games with Sugar Rush; Toy Maker, Doll Maker, Love Giver, Refrigeration Unit, and Icebox went around helped everyone they could. Rainstorm and Thunderstorm smiled and they went around helping everyone,

"What do you do for a living, Thunderstorm?" Diamond Tiara asked,

"I work at a weather factory." Thunderstorm answered,

"What about your wife?" Silver Spoon questioned,

"My mom's a doctor." Rainstorm responded,

"I gotta admit, Pinkie Pie, I'm surprised at how many disabled ponies and ponies with other problems you have met and befriended, I thought Tulip was the only one." White Mage remarked,

"Nope, she's just one." Pinkie Pie answered,

"I'm surprised, too, just... wow." Angelique said,

"You all are my special friends, ponies with unique problems that my other friends don't have, so I keep a list in my head of your specific needs in my head." Pinkie Pie explained,

"That must be a lot of memorizing." the filly Snowflake stated,

"It is." Pinkie Pie responded,

"That reminds me, I'll likely be able to make the spell that sends us all back soon, so make sure you say your goodbyes today, Pinkie." Twilight Sparkle said,

"Noted." Pinkie Pie answered,

"Well, I guess no point in having you and Maud work today then." Limestone Pie stated,

"Hmm-mm." Marble Pie said while nodding,

"Why don't we do a show while we wait for Princess Twilight to finish her spell?" Trixie suggested, the others agreed to watch,

"Alright, outside, everybody." Pinkie Pie said, and they went.

Trixie made a stage appear outside in the yard she, Starlight Glimmer, Pinkie Pie, Cheese Sandwich, Octavia, Tati, Houdini, Duo, Bozo, Back Flip, Double Joint, Beethooven, Flower Viola, Fiddler, Angelique, Tempo, Winter Blues, Woodwind, and Callas went onto the stage,

"Welcome, everyone, to the great and the powerful Trixie's show, she has her usual assistant Starlight Glimmer with her today alongside many other guests, Pinkie Pie, party performer, Cheese Sandwich, party performer, Tati, illusionist, Houdini, escape artist, Duo, ventriloquist, Bozo, clown, Back Flip, acrobat, and Double Joint, contortionist as my extra performers, back here are the musicians, Beethooven the composer, Octavia on cello, Flower Viola and Fiddler on violas, Angelique on violin, Tempo on trumpet, Winter Blues on piano, Woodwind on flute, and Callas the singer." Trixie announced, the crowd cheered,

"Now, watch in awe as we put on a show that you all will remember for a lifetime. Trixie will start with her usual disappearing acts with the others adding some pizazz into the act, now then, let us begin."

"Fido, you will drive the crowd away if you act like that." Duo warned,

"Good, the less I have to do, the better." Fido said, the crowd's jaws' dropped,

"You won't make any bits if you act like that." Duo remarked,

"What? I'm not given bits for free with my mere presence? That's absurd." Fido said,
