Chapter one.
Amnesia
Pinkie Pie snickered as she finished tying the last knot. "Dashie will never see this coming!" She said to herself as she admired her work. Picking up the wrench in her mouth, she began to walk away.
"Mmph!!"
Suddenly, the pink mare went tumbling to the floor, landing with her front legs pinned underneath her. Shoot! she thought to herself. I tripped on the tripwire! Pinkie looked up, and her eyes grew wide. The entire pitcher of water, not just the water itself, was falling towards her. She let out a muffled whimper; the wrench in her mouth was the least of her worries now. Before she could react, the pitcher fell on her head with a sickening THUNK. Just then, Rainbow Dash walked in. "Alright Pinkie," she said, turning on the lights. "What did you need me fo- " She stopped short, seeing her friends condition.
"PINKIE!!"
She was at her friend's side in an instant. Rainbow took the wrench out of Pinkie's mouth, and gently gathered the mare in her hooves. "You're gonna be okay, you just gotta be okay..." she blubbered, stroking her friends mane. Pinkie's vision was too blurry to see clearly, but she could just make out the shape of a cyan figure through her half lidded eyes. "Stay with me now, okay? Don't leave me here! Pinkie!"
She groaned and her eyes drifted shut....
Darkness. That was all that she could see. Darkness. "Hello?" Called the pink mare. Nothing but her echo replied. "Is anypony out there?" The same response. "Please!" She cried, "I don't like being alone!!"
"It's not you time yet, pony." Said a soft, elegant voice from the black abyss. "Go now." Then there was a white wall coming at her. She tried to scream and run, but she couldn't move. It was coming closer, and closer, and closer until-
The mare's eyes snapped open, and she gasped for air. She was facing a white ceiling. An annoying beeping noise filled her ears. She felt clothes on her, soft and comfortable.
"Hey, y'all! She's awake!!"
A voice called out from the beeping, sounding female, and southern. The mare sat up in her bed and looked around. Five more mares came rushing at her, embracing her in a group hug. "Thank Celestia you're alright!" Said a lavender unicorn with purple eyes. "We were so worried, darling! " said a white unicorn with a purple mane and blue eyes. The five of them stopped hugging her, and smiled. But the pink mare didn't smile back. She cocked her head to the side a bit, and gave them a confused look.
"You alright there, sugarcube?" Asked an orange mare with green eyes, a blonde mane, and a brown cowpony hat. With her head still tilted, the pink mare asked, "Do I know you?"
The five looked at her funny, then began to laugh. "You should, Pinkie!" Said a cyan pegasus with a rainbow mane and rosy colored eyes. "Pinkie? Who's that?" At this comment, they all stopped laughing. "That's your name." Said the orange pony slowly. "Huh!" Said 'Pinkie'. "I was wondering what that was!"
Then a yellow pegasus with a light pink mane and turquoise eyes came over to her and asked softly, "Are you okay?" The pink mare smiled. "I'm fine, are you okay?"
The pegasus whimpered and walked back over to the group. They began whispering, and Pinkie caught bits and pieces of the conversation.
"...doesn't remember..."
"...know her own name!.."
"...brain mixed up?.."
"...panic?...."
Pinkie shifted uncomfortably in the bed. They're talking about me. She thought to herself. And my brain is NOT mixed up! Just then, something chirped outside the window. She looked over to see a beautiful bluejay sitting on the windowsill. She whistled a simple little tune to draw him in. To her delight, the jay whistled back and fluttered towards her. Pinkie reached out a hoof for him to land on, and when he did, she nuzzled him gently. The other ponies looked at her in amazement. The pink mare looked at them and smiled pleasantly.
The five other element barers looked at Pinkie Pie in shock. "Oh my," Fluttershy said. "I didn't know she could do that!" Rainbow Dash looked at the pink mare in horror. "I don't even think that's Pinkie!" She said alofting in the air. "Girls!" Twilight Sparkle whispered, so that Pinkie couldn't hear. "Let's just go ask the doctor and see what he thinks. " The others nodded and began to walk out the door.
Pinkie looked away from the window and cocked her head again. "Y'all stay put now, ya hear? " Applejack told her, being the last one out the door. Pinkie nodded her head. "Alrighty then, we'll be right back." She closed the door, leaving the pink mare to wonder,Who were they? Do I know.them from somewhere?
"Doctor! " cried Twilight as the five friends rushed into the office. "Pinkie pie can't remember us, she didn't even know her name, and she's doing weird, non-Pinkie Pie things!!" Doctor Swizzle Stix looked at them, for a moment startled by their sudden appearance, but then sighed and hung his head.
"I was afraid of this."
"Of what? Afraid of what?" Asked Rainbow, looking at him in horror. The stallion looked up at them and calmly said, "Pinkie's blow to the head caused her amnesia..... it's most likely that she doesn't remember who you are, or who she is."
