Back at the hotel, we packed our bags, and found out most of the people in the hotel that stayed saw us on TV.
I was miserable. The best time of my life, all gone.
Pinkie was already knocked out on my bed, and Misha was already hard after her schoolwork for the night.
I felt like going for a walk, So I grabbed my key, and headed down to the lobby. I did nothing but pace around.
I finally went back up about 30 minutes later. Misha was still hard at work, and Pinkie awake, waiting for my return.
I crawl in bed, and bring Pinkie up on my chest.
She almost immediately falls asleep.
I fall asleep shortly after and begin to dream.
the first figure I see looks like Celestia.
Her wavy, colourful mane, and her tall, lean figure.
Then five other figures.. two pegasi, two unicorns, and a lone earth pony.
I look around, frantically for Pinkie. She's missing.
I look up, and see her headed straight for the other figures. I run as fast as possible towards them.
I get to the group of other ponies and ask "What exactly.. Is going on?"
Celestia is towering, at least a full six inches taller than I am.
She says "Well, Twilight cast a magic spell, to find Pinkie. We tracked it to this position."
"You're here to take her back.. aren't you..?" I asked with a tear running down my face.
Celestia nodded. Twilight's horn began to glow.
"Wait.." I said, quietly.
Pinkie looked up at me, and I took her Teddy out of my jacket.
Her face lit up like a three stage artillery shell at midnight on the fourth of July.
She ran towards me, and jumped into my arms. Her sharp, cyan eyes looked right into mine.
She brought her head close to mine, and said quietly "Daddy.. I love you.." And took her little Teddy with her.
"Daddy? Pinkie, what in the name of Celestia has gotten into you?" Said Rainbow Dash.
Celestia glared at her for using her name in such a form.
Twilight's horn began to glow again, and there was a bright flash a short time later. Only Celestia stood in front of me.
She said "Pinkie has had a good time with you, and others. She has enjoyed it here with you, but now she must return to Equestria."
I stared at Celestia, dumbfounded.
She continued.. "I must clear your memory of Pinkie, and Pinkie's memory of you. Those memories will be sent somewhere on this planet, that is unknown."
Her horn began to glow, and a very bright flash followed.
I look around, and Celestia is no longer here.
Just the white, empty space.
I let out a scream, and I notice I'm in the hotel room still.
It's 5:30 in the morning, and the alarm on my phone is going off. It was time to head home.
I woke up Misha when I was screaming. I looked over at her and said "It's time to go.."
Pinkie was already up, and chewing on some leftover cheesecake from last night at Lindy's.
I found our boarding passes out of LaGuardia one way back to Wichita.
Pinkie had her bags by the door already, She was homesick, and I knew it.
"Come on, Daddy! Let's go home!" She said enthusiastically.
"She's been up since four.." said Misha.
I could only believe her more. She put her ring on, Gathered everything she had out of the bathroom, along with my Allergy meds, Toothpaste, and everything else.
Pinkie was bouncing up and down by the door, I know she wanted to get home, and fast.
As we left the room, I made sure we had everything. My mother's box was the first thing I packed.
We had everything, so I grabbed the key, and shut the lights off, and shut the door with remorse. I was going to miss this trip.
Pinkie looked up at Misha. "I had a good time last night. Did you?" she asked.
"Yes, I did Pinkie."
Pinkie smiled.
I pressed the call button to the elevator, and hung my head. I wasn't ready to leave this amazing, happy city.
Misha asked me what was wrong. I just shook my head, and handed her the boarding pass.
We rode the elevator all of the way down to the lobby, and I checked my keys in.
"Taking off?" Said the butler.
"Yeah, it's been a great time." I said. I wasn't feeling the best emotionally. I didn't have anything to look forward to since I didn't live in a very big house.
"Well, I hope you had a great stay here at the Wellington." He said. He handed me a card and continued.
"Here's my card. It has my cell phone number and address on it. Call if you need me anytime." and offered me a Handshake.
I shook his hand firmly and said "Thank you sir, We'll for sure stay here again." with a disconsolate tone.
I waved back to him, and he gave me a salute.
I hailed a cab, and loaded our bags. I got in and told the driver "LGA please."
He gave a thumbs up, and put the cab in gear.
It was a long, miserable ride.
We got to the airport and entered our terminal.
The last thing on my mind was getting home.
We boarded the plane, and Pinkie lied down on my lap.
I dozed off, and before I knew it, We were back in Wichita.
