"What the hell Pinkie?"

"Pyrefly! Are you still asleep? It's 1 in the afternoon, get your lazy ass out of bed!"

'Why is it that almost every day I don't have anything to do, I wake up to Icy screaming at me?'

"Did you hear me! Get up!" My sister continued to scream through my bedroom door.

"Yeah yeah, I heard you. Now find you snooze button for me and give yourself a good hit. I'll be out in a minute."

'Man, if Dash was here, she may have already had me up to go work out. I really hate waking up to screaming. At least with Rainbow its a cuddle and a kiss before we head out. Not to mention Ice wouldn't dare scream at RD.'

Suddenly my bed sheets flash froze, forcing me out of bed. "What the hell Ice! Why the fuck did you go and do that?" I asked in a rage as I opened the door to my room and walked out, heading for the kitchen, where my evil sister was making lunch/breakfast.

"Next time I'll just freeze you and drag you out. "

"I don't have any duties today and Dash is in Cloudsdale till the weekend. Why do I NEED to be up?"

"Because its Handsome Thunder's birthday next week and I NEED you to go to Sugar Cube Corner and ask the Cakes if they could bake him something special and ask them if they could ship it to Las Pegasus for me." She spat at me with malice.

"Really? Why can't you do it." I complained, really not wanting to have anything to do with her pen pal crush. "I mean, come on! He's your friend! Take care of your own damn errands."

Ice Dancer simple shot one of her trademark glares of loathing at me, shrinking my bravado down to the size of a pea.

"FINE! You win. Just stop starring at me like that. Damn!" I said in defeat.

"Good," she responded as she levitated my saddle bag into the room with her magic and dropped it painfully on my back. "Everything you need is in there. Just go to the Cake's and drop off the contents. And don't you dare look in there, or so help me Celestia! I'll freeze you till Rainbow comes back. Got it!"

"Yeah, I got it. Drop the bag off to the Cake's WITHOUT opening it  and RD wont come back to find I've been turned into a snowpony." I repeated defiantly.

"Yay!" Icy squealed, reverting back to her happy-go-lucky demeanor, which is pretty much whenever she gets her way, and I usually end up suffering for it.

So, with my saddle bag full of who knows what, I started out towards my destination. But there was no way in hell I was going straight there. Oh no, I had other plans. For example, I slow-mo walked to the library to see what Twilight was up to.

I arrived at the library home of the book smart, street dumb, unicorn, and I was greeted by a cacophony of yelps that I assumed came from Spike as something, or somepony, was chasing him around the interior of the hollowed out tree.

'Well, this should make for an interesting visit.' I think to myself as I open the door and narrowly dodge a stray spell intended for the draconic assistant.

"Spike, stay still! I need to use you to try this gender-bending spell on!"

"Oh, no Twilight! I have no problem being your guinea pig for a lot of your spells, but I refuse to do this one!"

"Oh come on Spike," I say as I walk through the door into the foyer. "For all you know, Rarity may not be attracted to you because she's into mares. This could be your way in."

Spike stopped run and thought about my entering words. Then his face twisted into several different features that happened way too fast for me to catch more than a few. I could have sworn I saw one of intrigue, and then a look of disgust, then quickly to a look of sear puzzlement.

"So, I see your working on spells again today, eh Twi?" I ask the lavender mare as she too tried to work out what all of Spike's expressions meant.

"Yeah," she responded. "I was hoping to actually learn a few of the spells we faked during the Trixie crisis."

"So you started this when?"

"A few hours ago."

"And you've been chasing Spike around for the whole time?"

"Yup."

"Ok, so one last question. Why in the hell would you start off with a gender-bending spell?!"

"I thought it was the most interesting of them all."

"Whatever floats your balloon Twi. Well, anyways, I just stopped by to see if you had the new Daring Doo book yet. I was hoping to get my hooves on it before Rainbow gets back from Cloudsdale."

"Yeah, its right over there with the others." Twilight said as she pointed to the shelf behind where Spike was standing, still lost in a sea of mixed emotions caused by my joke.

"Thanks Twi." I said as I flew over to the shelf and quickly grabbed the desired book and headed for the door.

As I flew out the tree, I heard Spike finally submitting to the spell. Twilight let out a yip of pleasure and then the area around the library flashed with the purple glow of the unicorn's magic.

'Man is Spike gonna be pissed to find out that I was kidding about Rarity being a Fillyfooler.' I laughed to myself as I made my way to my next destination, Sweet Apple Acres.

When I got there, I was disappointed to find that there was nothing interesting going on, Just AJ and Big Mac apple bucking like usual. I grabbed a few apples for myself and continued on my way.

"What the hell to do next?" I asked myself as I few back to town. Since I couldn't think of anything else to do, which was a shame, I decided to finally make my way to Sugar Cube Corner.

As I glided up to the confectionery, the sounds of screaming and laughter were erupting from the depths of the bakery. I was suddenly gripped by the desire to turn flank and get my ass home, far away from the menacing noises that reached my ears, but then the thought of being turned into an ice cube till the weekend forced me to enter. And what is it I find when I open the door? Well, none other than Pinkie Pie standing on her hind legs laughing maniacally in front of a swirling worm hole of unknown origin while Mr. and Mrs. Cake scream in utter terror at the sight in front of them. As I gawked at the scene before me, only one phrase was able to escape my mouth.

"What the hell Pinkie!"
