Gummy Saves The Day.

Gummy woke up late as always, he knew that Pinkie would be out having fun as usual. Cup and Carrot had taken Pound and Pumpkin in for a checkup so he had the shop all to himself. He started with his usual breakfast which Pinkie always left him, candy corn. he gnawed at the pieces, at times some lodged in his gums and he pretended he had teeth. This always made him laugh. Normally he would smell candy and cakes but, today he smelled something different. He walked into the dining room and looked under all the tables. Under one in the corner he found something he'd seen several times before, Granny Smith's Dentures. He was excited that today would be the day he would finally feel what teeth felt like. He picked them up in his mouth and felt so happy, he smiled. His reflection in the shiny floor scared him. What is that? The gator thought to himself. Do I really look that scary with teeth? Oh well when Pinkie gets back she'll just take these to Applejack. He thought. Gummy walked around with nothing to do.

He thought he'd tune in to the radio and listen to some music and DJ P0n=3's show. He found the radio In Pinkie's bedroom, turned it on, and sat down to listen "What's up Ponyville, we got sumthin' serious goin' down outside, we got ourselves about seventeen crazy ponies tearin this place up, stay indoors dudes this is the storm of dah century." Crazy ponies? Gummy thought to himself. Then he heard something outside. He climbed his way onto a booth table and to his amazement, the DJ was right Seventeen Pinkies were running through the streets. She must've used the mirror pool. Gummy knew exactly what to do.

He must get the book to Twilight, but how? He grabbed Pinkie's bottomless saddlebag and Granny Smith's dentures and climbed out the window. The Library was only a hundred yards away, but for a tiny Gator it was longer, especially when thirty ponies are in your way. But Gummy knew he must Prevail in this quest, and set off. He zigzagged between the angry ponies and found himself one step from the library, he scurried in and walked to the hidden shelf. He set Pinkie's bag in front of him and rummaged through it. After a minute of searching he found it and slipped it into the case. Just as Twilight shut the door Gummy climbed out the window undetected.

Something, felt off, Gummy knew that leaving the book wouldn't be enough. What could he do, then it hit him, the other stories in the book. Gummy had read the book hundreds of times, during Pinkie's parties, The legend of the fourth wall, and the Pinkie Space. Maybe just maybe, he could help by using this power. He recalled the ritual.

In your heart you must reach, and hear the voice for it will teach, the way between the worlds to find, for the pure of heart gentle and kind, to make the walls come crashing down, you must never ever wear a frown. He calmed himself and closed his eyes. "My dear Gummy, you have pleased my ear, you have a good reason I hear, to use this power for the good of ponykind, which in yourself you did find, you have my blessing to become the one to hold, the great power, and let your story unfold." Gummy felt something warm inside him, as he listened to Nana Pinkie's voice. He felt a smile cross his face as Granny Smith's dentures fell out. He felt bad for stealing them so he decided to return them, but how? He looked deep into the saddlebag and found a Fluttershy suit,

Why on Equestria would she have a Fluttershy suit? Is what any pony would ask but Gummy payed it no mind and put it on. Strangely it fit like a glove, considering it was ten times bigger than him. He knew not to question Pinkie's ways, and walked around getting used to the change in height and movement. He slowly made his way to Sweet Apple Acres, doing his best to not draw attention. No this won't work. He thought, as he ducked into an alley. Maybe, he rummaged through th bag again and found Pinkie's Mare Do Well costume and put it on over the Fluttershy suit. Now if anypony asks I'm Mare Do Well.

He decided to run to Sweet Apple Acres, his new longer legs made it easier to close long distances. He jumped onto a rooftop. Pinkie's things were weird but effective. Jumping from roof to roof he could see Applejack and Wynona herding the Pinkies into City Hall. He felt good, he was happy that Twilight found the book, but was still worried that Twilight would have a hard time finding the real one. No he had to trust Pinkie's friends, he had to trust Pinkie.

He was a hop, skip, and a jump away from his destination and found the remains of a barn, The Pinkies must've destroyed it. He landed on the roof of the farmhouse and slid down the shingles and onto the porch. He raised his 'hoof' and knocked on the door. "Hold on I'm coming," Gummy recognized Granny Smith's voice and took out the dentures. The door slowly opened and he held out the dentures to her. "Oh I've been looking for those, where'd you find them?"

"SugarCube Corner." Gummy spoke in a deep female voice, surprising himself not only that he could, but he sounded like a mare.

"Thank you kindly."

"No problem." Gummy ran back to Sugarcube Corner and climbed in the window as Pinkie fell asleep on the kitchen floor. and the others left. He found his new strength more than enough to carry her back to her room and tuck her into bed. Gummy was so tired he fell asleep still in the costume.

==============

For once Gummy woke up before Pinkie.and he decided to wake her up. "Pinkie." He whispered. "Pinkie wake up." Pinkie opened her groggy eyes, and shot up onto her headboard.

"M-M-M-Mare Do Well?"

"It's me, Gummy." He slipped off the mask showing the Fluttershy face, and his Purple eyes.

"How, and why do you sound like a mare?"

"Don't know, may be the suit."

"Probably, let's try a stallion suit," Pinkie opened a drawer and reached in pulling out a mauve body suit. "Try this on," Gummy reached for the zipper and pulled, it fell to the floor leaving him floating in the air. He grabbed the suit and put it on, and this one fit perfectly too. "How bout now?"

"Pretty good I guess." His voice was deep and manly, but not as deep as Big Macintosh's.

"We gotta show Twilight, and the others they'll be so surprised." Pinkie bounced out of bed and landed next to him. her goofy smile still on her face. "But you'll need a new name." She paced around him. "Chewy, no, Gumball, no, Ah ha. Take it off and put this one on." Pinkie took out a mint green one. and Gummy did as told. "Your new name is Spearmint."

"Like the gum?"

"Yep,"

"Cool."

"Let's go," Pinkie squeaked and they walked into the kitchen. Cup and Carrot were busy baking as usual. "Good morning Mr. and Mrs. Cake."

"Good morning Dear, who's your Stallion?"

"I'm Spearmint, nice to meet you,"

"You're good," Pinkie whispered in his new ear.

"I'm Cup, and this is Carrot,"

"Nice to meet you, Spearmint," Mr Cake held out a hoof, and Spearmint shook it. "Here, on the house." He lowered his head and held up a muffin pan, "One, for you, one for Pinkie, and one for the Mailmare." Spearmint took the banana nut muffin and swallowed it whole, and Pinkie did the same. Pinkie grabbed the muffin for Ditzy and they left.

"HI Pinkie!" The grey Pegasus shouted as she reached into her saddlebag. and pulled out some letters and put them in the mailbox. "I got something for you too." She pulled out a box, and hoofed it to Pinkie. "It's a new part for your new Party Cannon,"

"Thanks, I've been waiting for this for weeks."

"Sorry it's a little late, bye Pinkie," Ditzy flew off but stopped mid air and waved at Spearmint. "Bye Gummy," She shouted and flew off to deliver more mail.

"How did she?" Spearmint Gummy was confused. He turned his head to Pinkie.

Gummy Spearmint .

Pinkie led Spearmint to the Library to meet Twilight, he'd met her before but back when he was just a gator now he had a new lease on life as a pony, and finally able to speak his mind. He wanted to apologize for that thing in the bathtub a few months ago. "Um Spearmint,"

"You can just call me Gummy, It's my name, Gummy Spearmint."

"It might be best if we get you some teeth first. Everypony might find you creepy."

"True, but where?"

"I got a good dentist, won't ask many questions."

"Really?"

"Yep just give me a minute." Pinkie walked into a shop and came out a minute later and waved to Spearmint. He walked over and found the little office and a dentist chair. "Take a seat." He laid in the chair and it leaned backward. He heard hoofsteps and a bright light shone in his eyes.

"Open wide." He did as told. "Okay replacement teeth, shouldn't take but ten minutes." Spearmint could feel something being attached to his jaw, through his gums, but he felt no pain, Ten minutes pass and he could actually feel the teeth unlike when he was wearing the dentures. "There, all done, no charge."

"Thanks, Floss." Pinkie said as she helped Spearmint off the chair. He clacked his teeth together, and looked in a mirror. He ran his tongue over his teeth confused on how this was even possible. "We gotta go Floss, seeya later."

"Send me some cavities, Pinkie Pie!"

"Will do!"

"Thanks!" Spearmint shouted, as He and Pinkie walked back outside.

"Hey Pinkie Pie!" A cyan Pegasus with a rainbow mane shouted from her cloud perch. Spearmint knew this was Rainbow Dash, and waved. "Who's your Coltfriend?"

"This is Spearmint, I want all of our friends to meet him,"

"So you want me to get Fluttershy, Applejack, and Rarity to the Library?"

"Yes please!"

"Meet us there in ten minutes."

"Thanks Dashie!"

"No prob." Rainbow dashed off to find their three friends.

"So what can we do for ten minutes?"

"I dunno, lunch?"

"Lunch," He wanted to try his new chompers out and try some actual food. "Not that I'm tired of sweets but, what else is there to eat?"

"Well, there's this place down the street, makes a good HBLT, and fresh fried potato chips. A little salty, but salty and sweet go great together," Pinkie led him to the restaurant and ordered. They waited about three minutes for the food and ate. Spearmint loved the salty crunch of the haybacon sandwich and the salty chips. He watched as Pinkie scarfed down the meal in seconds. He always admired Pinkie's strange ways, but now he could truly see her in action. He loved her, always had, but now with the whole new life in the suit, he felt something more. He quickly shook it off as Pinkie payed the tab with bits she pulled out of the waiter's ear. "Let's go, we gotta be there in two minutes." He noticed a blue mare with a dark blue mane and a white streak through it. "Ah good idea, hey Minuette!" Pinkie waved her over.

"Morning Pinkie, how are you?"

"Pretty good, listen Spearmint and I need to be across town and we're running late."

"Okay, tell me where and I'll get you there."

"Twilight's house."

"Alright stand still." Minuette's horn started to glow and in a flash of light they were at the Library door. "There you go,"

"And there you go," Pinkie hoofed her four bits.

"But I normally charge one bit."

"One bit per, and I'm feeling generous today."

"Thanks, bye have a good day Pinkie, same for you Spearmint." She smiled and trotted off.

"You too!" Pinkie shouted, and knocked on the door.

"Come in." The door was opened by Twilight's purple magic and Pinkie led him in.

"Hi,"

"Hey Pinkie Pie," Rainbow said.

"Good morning," Rarity seemed not to notice Spearmint.

"Hi Pinkie." Fluttershy said in her usual tone.

"Good mornin' who's yer friend?"

"Everypony this is Spearmint, he's my, what were you again?"

"An old friend,"

"Where did you meet?" Rarity asked.

"Where was it," He scratched his chin trying to think of an excuse. "It was when you moved to Ponyville, Pinkie. You used to show me pictures and frankly you look a tiny teeny weeny bit better with the straight hair."

"You really think so?" Pinkie asked and he nodded. Her mane and tail deflated and fell limp.

"Oh no not this again." Rainbow and Spike groaned.

"What, something wrong, do I have food in my teeth," She ran her tongue over them. "Nope, I'm good."

"How, last time that happened you went a little you know."

"Nuts, Cookoo, Bonkers, Insane, Crazy, Homicidal?"

"What was that last one?"

"Nothing," Pinkie shot away at the question.

"Okay, then," Twilight rolled her eyes. "There has to be more than just meeting your old friend behind you calling us here."

"Yep, there is, go ahead show them."

"Are you sure?"

"Go on,"

"Okay," He reached for the zipper and pulled but it was stuck. "The Zipper's stuck."

"Oh stupid thing," Pinkie Climbed up onto his wide shoulders and grabbed the zipper between her teeth. "Shoulda got these from Rarity, but then she'd think I'm weird." She tugged and tugged but the zipper didn't move. "Though she probably thinks I am already."

"Ow that hurts, quit it, I don't think it'll come off."

"What won't come off?" Twilight asked.

"Long story short Mare Do Well woke me up this morning, and it turned out to be Fluttershy but with a different voice, but then Futtershy turned out to be Gummy in disguise, remember that one from the Crystal Kingdom, anyway Gummy didn't want to be a mare so I found a stallion one, that one was the wrong color so I found this one and switched his name from Gummy Spearmint to Spearmint Wintergreen, and then I took him to see Floss and got him some new teeth, told Dashie to bring you all here, and then we had lunch, then Minuette dropped us off here and I knocked, you opened the door, we all said Hi and Then he tried to take off his face but it wouldn't come off, and then I started this long winded bstory of what happened today." She let in a big gasp of air, and paused for half a second. "Guess it's not that long a story." She giggled, and her friends stood with dropped jaws and wide eyes.

Spearmint Wintergreen's First Day

Twilight was the first to shake herself back to reality and was skeptical to say the least. "Even if I believed you were Gummy how is this possible, how is this scientifically possible?" Spearmint felt his tail move. He knew what it meant and tackled Twilight out of the way of a falling War and Peace.

"Twitchy tail?" Applejack was jolted back to the current plane and saw them both laying on the ground.

"Yeah." Spearmint helped Twilight back up and they both looked at the crater where the book had landed. "Even though I know how it works it's still creepy."
.
"You know how it works!" Twilight gasped, and grabbed him with her forelegs. "Tell me how, I have to know."

"That information is classified." Spearmint and Pinkie said together.

"But , I aurgh."

"Just read the book, Twilight." Spearmint said sing-songedly. "I put it there for a reason,"

"You mean you put the book in the case?" Spike asked confused.

"I had to, I can't do magic, I'm just a ponygator."

"But Spearmint," Pinkie begged. "You have a horn."

"What?" He rubbed his head and his hoof clinked when he hit the horn. "That wasn't there before."

"The Pinkie Space!" Pinkie shouted, as she reached into her saddlebag and pulled out the book, which magically disappeared from Spikes claws. "Where was it now, ah page fifty-six." She nudged open the book with her nose and flipped through the pages. "Here it is, it says, Our world is set between two, one of red and one of blue, a little bit of both we see, in this world we know to a tee, it is the job of very few, to bring those aspects into view." She flipped the page. "This thing reads like stereo instructions."

"What does that even mean?" Rainbow shouted.

"Think of it this way," Pinkie looked into her bag, and pulled out three bits. "The blue one is here" She set one on the floor. "We're here," She held one in her hoof and put it on top of the first one. "And the red one is here." She put the last one down. "Red, blue, and yellow."

"Are primary colors." Rarity finished.

"And the Magiverse theory says," Pinkie egged on Twilight.

"That all parallel dimensions branch from one singular point." Twilight answered.

"AKA Pony Prime."

"There's actually logic behind Pinkie Pie?" Twilight sat back down as her eye started twitching.

"I think we broke her," Spearmint said waving his hoof in front of her face, no response. "Yeah we broke her."

"Give her a minute to process it," Pinkie giggled

Twilight hadn't budged for two hours as Pinkie played paper hoofball with Applejack, and Spearmint checked over and over to see if the horn was real, and indeed it was, weird enough he could actually feel it. He could feel everything, the wood under his hooves, his soft coat and his qaf mane as Rarity said. He thought he would try something Pinkie stupid, which usually works. He raised his hoof and pushed Twilight onto her back, when she hit the ground she sprawled back to reality. "How long was I out?" She asked rubbing the back of her head.

"Bout two hours give er take. consarnit Pinkie that's the hundredth time, you beat me." Their game of paper Hoofball had graduated to tic-tac-toe.

"Now you know how I feel." Rarity chuckled.

"Didn't think you could count that high, highest I've ever counted was three-hundred-sixty-six, number of days in the new year and number of ponies in Ponyville."

"Let's try a different game,"

"Is anypony else freaking out that This thing, can answer the question that is Pinkie Pie? No offense."

"None taken,"

"Not really, I'm trying not to imagine what would happen if this happened to Opal."

"Or Winona,"

"Wonder what would happen to Tank?" Rainbow was imagining a world where her pet turtle would be her wingstallion in the Wonderbolts. "I hope he'd be a Pegasus, or a Unicorn."

"This is not the time, what we should be thinking about is Spearmint." Twilight, slammed her hoof on the table.

"Sorry,"

"If we want to fix him, we need to think."

"Who says I want to get fixed." Spearmint was slinking along the ceiling. "I like this new trick. Pound did it once."

"But he had wings." Pinkie shouted.

"Uh-oh." His grip slipped and he plummeted two stories and slammed onto the ground. "That hurt."

"How you're in a suit." Twilight huffed.

"Let me help." Applejack pried him out of the crater, and to her surprise he was solid all over. "What in tarnation?"

"The Zipper." Pinkie pointed to the ground where the pull and teeth laid. "Well, he's stuck, like that."

"What do you mean?"

"Page thirteen, If the gift one does posses, everyday life can be a test, all you need is a change of face, and a new life just a taste, If you like it then you find, that it's impossible to go back to the one left behind." Pinkie stated calmly.

"In English Pink," Applejack sighed.

"I mean, he accepts his new life, and he can't go back now, even if he tried. Like once I accepted my new life as a party planner, my entire look on life changed."

"Like you were a different pony."

"Yeah," Pinkie skipped over to Spearmint. "Now since we have a new friend, it's time for a party." Pinkie wrapped her arm around his neck. "C'mon everypony, back to Sugarcube Corner!"

P.A.R.T.Y? Because I Gotta!

Everypony was having fun at the party, except Twilight she had her nose deep in the Storybook. She just sat at a table turning pages. Everypony else was just talking and having a good time, Spearmint's attention kept going back to her. It just didn't feel right to have a friend who wasn't smiling, he learned that early on in his short life. He made his way over and sat down across from her. "Um, Twilight?"

"Uh huh," Saying she was distracted, would be the understatement of the year.

"I'm sorry,"

"For what?"

"I dunno." She looked up and smiled. "I was wondering if, since I'm a Unicorn." Spearmint was struggling to ask the simplest question.

"If I'd teach you magic?"

"Yeah that." He forced a chuckle.

"I don't even know if you can use magic."

"Perfect chance to find out." He batted his eyes flapping his sudden set of eyelashes, making her giggle.

"Okay I'll do it, we'll start tomorrow."

"But Twilight tomorrow's the Parade,"

"That reminds me I gotta go check on the float." Applejack said as she stood up.

"Can I come?"

"Sure, we can see how strong you are,"

"Please Pinkie,"

"I don't know." Pinkie scratched her chin.

"Please, please, please, please." Spearmint hopped around her.

"Okay you got me, you can go."

"Yeah," Spearmint High hoofed Applejack.

"You know what bugs me," Pinkie scratched her head.

"What?" Rarity asked.

"That was a Pegasus suit."

"I think I found his wings." Rainbow hovered over his back. "But their kinda out of commission for a while, he's gotta grow into 'em." Rainbow landed next to him and patted his shoulder. " It'll take a few days but I'm sure you'll be flyin' high in no time."

"Alright let's go A.J." He shook it off in a second and he and Applejack headed off for the farm. "How's Granny Smith?"

"Aw she's alright, she lost her teeth the other day, but somepony found 'em and brought em by yesterday, isn't that nice."

"Well I'm glad, you think I'm nice."

"Really, so Pink wasn't joking about Mare Do Well. can't believe she still has the suit. I gave mine back."

"So you're making a float?"

"Applebloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle, asked if they could borrow the barn, and I'm sure they'll finish by this evenin. Specially since Babs is here."

"Babs?"

"Our cousin from Manehatten,"

"Oh a city filly, coming down to the country."

"Yeah, she's tryin ta get away from the Bullies back home, they've been teasin' her cuz a her Blank Flank."

"I'm a little confused about the blank flank thing, she doesn't have her cutie mark, why is that bad, she still has potential."

"That's what Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle said."

"If in oneself you don't believe, one can ne'er overachieve."

"Very Zen, we should take you by Zecora after a bit."

"The evil enchantress that does evil dances, if you look deep in her eyes she'll put you in trances, then what will she do she'll mix up an evil brew, and gobble you up in a big tasty stew, I know that's a lie, but still I try, to finish what I start, even when it makes me feel tart." Spearmint started singing."Left in the dark in a house made from bark, she sits alone in the park, when I see her I run to greet her, and tell her how glad I was to meet her, and know what it means to be a friend, forever and ever until the end."

"Quite the set of pipes." Applejack complimented.

"Thanks, living with Pinkie, you get used to it."

"And it shows," As they went through the gate Spearmint felt uneasy. "But one question though,"

"Yeah,"

"What happened to Pinkie, when her hair went all floppy, and why was it different this time?"

"Well, back when she was working at the Rock farm, it was all dark and the only thing keeping her alive was her nanna's stories. At first she thought they were just stories, and always looked forward to the visits. One day she saw a rainbow and for the first time smiled." As they walked he felt a pinch in his knee. Pinchy knee means scary thing. "Applejack!" He pushed her away as a Giant Pumpkin smashed into him. The shell slid down an invisible wall. The cowering Spearmint opened his eyes and found himself unharmed. "Are you okay?" He scrambled to Applejack and helped her to her hooves.

"Yeah, I'm fine," She shook her head and regained her composure. "Did you use magic?"

"Uh, maybe, I dunno, was that a Pumpkin?"

"Oh pony feathers, I need ta check on em, We'll get together some other time, see you tomorrow." She ran off leaving him alone.

"I wish I had a family, Pinkie's all I have." Spearmint felt restless as he spoke, he knew his words fell on ears other than his own. "I know you're there," He turned to where the figure stood under the shade of an apple tree. "So come out." The Mare only smiled and turned to leave. "Leave then," She disappeared in the same silence as which she came. "Page Twenty-seven, To yourself you must stay true,"

"To keep safe the world between red and blue." A familiar voice finished. Spearmint turned to find somepony who he didn't expect.

"Princess Celestia?"

"Yes," The regal white mare stood easily overshadowing him. "And who might you be?"

"Spearmint Wintergreen, Esquire,"

"How do you know of the book?" She cut straight to business.

"I've read it, up until the last chapter."

"How did you come across it?" He knew he shouldn't rat out Pinkie, but he was backed into a corner with just one question. "I left it in a safe place."

"Not safe enough for me to get my hooves on it."

"So you stole it?"

"It was on a shelf, I was bored, I read it."

"The book full of the secrets of the Magiverse, was on a shelf?" She raised an eyebrow obviously doubting his excuse.

"Spearmint!" Pinkie skidded to a halt next to him. "Woah Hi Princess," She bowed and whispered in his ear. "What did you do?"

"I didn't do anything, I just sat here and she was there."

"You know this Colt?"

"Yep,"

"That explains it," The Princess smiled and chuckled. "I must commend you for your selfless act of saving the life of Applejack." Celestia bowed her head. "You have chosen your student well, Pinkamena Diane, I can tell his heart is pure."

"Thanks," Pinkie smiled. "What brings you here?"

"I have some news for Twilight that would be better heard in person."

"Is it about the Delegates from Saddle Arabia?"

"Yes it is,"

"That's great well we won't keep you, got places to be ponies to see."

"It was nice to meet you Spearmint Wintergreen." The Princess bowed her head once again and spread her giant wings, and flew off to the library.

"What does she mean, chosen my student well." Pinkie racked her brain for the answer. "Oh well, we'll find out next week." She shrugged her shoulders and winked at your computer screen. "Come on we need to finish my float and then we need to help with Pound and Pumpkin."

"I got the little ones," Spearmint loved playing with them, they were the only ones other than Pinkie who understood him.

"What is Summer Harvest?" Spearmint asked he had rode in the floats before but never knew what they were for.

"It's like thanksgiving," She broke eye contact to wink at you again. "But during the summer."

"That explains the parade and the big buffet afterwards."

"Gotta love small town Equestria."

"Before we leave, could we check on Applejack, and the fillies?"

"Sure," Pinkie smiled so wide she had to shut her eyes or they'd pop out. She and Spearmint ran to the barn but stopped short when they saw Three other fillies leaving. Spearmint knew who two of them were and guessed the other was Babs. Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara, their talents were being spoiled rich and obnoxious. He felt his hoof tense, why would Babs be with them, of all ponies? "Looks like Babs is making new friends." Pinkie was ignorant of the big picture which was unusual for her, and in the blink of an eye disappeared back to Sugarcube.

"This is bad, I gotta follow 'em, this can't be good for her." Spearmint used the ninja skills he had learned to climb a tree. With his new point of view he quickly spotted them, the branch gave way and he floated mid-air. "Don't look down. The first rule of cartoons, you don't fall until you look down," He shut his eyes and struggled to stay calm. He felt himself moving and opened them. "OH SHIII," His words were cut short by a facefull of dirt and apple sauce which he shook off in seconds. "I lost them." He pushed himself to his hooves. "The sun's going down it's to late to trail them now." He heard Sweetie Belle, Applebloom, and Scootaloo's voices. "They're not, gonna,"

"I knew it, Pinkie isn't the only one." He watched as they started singing for no apparant reason. He tailed them to Sugarcube corner, where they ordered a vanilla, a strawberry, and a chocolate milkshake but they were stolen by Babs, Diamond, and Silver. "This is bad." They bolted out and hid in the movie theatre, but Babs did something Pinkie wouldn't she came through the screen. "Wow I didn't know this was 3-D." He caught himself from pulling a Pinkie. "I'm getting off topic, they're on the move." He followed them through the entire music montage until they ended up at Sweetie Belle's house. "Huh, I coulda sworn she lived out of town." Spearmint was exhausted and slowly made his way to the park. Going through a whole night in what felt like two minutes was very tiring, and thought he might find a big tree to nap under or a rock to sleep on.
