//------------------------------// // Chapter 1 // Story: Party Popper // by SureFreeD //------------------------------// Party Popper As usual, Pinkie Pie was having another party over at Sugar Cube corner, already organized food, drinks and other refreshments. It's already around afternoon, as she was expecting her guests. She sat there, thinking of all the great fun she's going to have with her friends. Excited, she began jumping up to her room, entering the bathroom. Pinkie grinned at the mirror that was mounted above the sink, her own expression made her giggle. She turned the sink's hot water tap, combining it with cold. Pinkie splashed her face with warm water, tiny drops running down her neck. She took a soft white towel, and pressed it against her face. Upon leaving the bathroom, she heard a knock on the door, Pinkie raced through her room to meet the first guest. Pinkie opened the door, to reveal a blue-cyan Pegasus staring down her eyes. It was Rainbow Dash. "Hi Dash, come on in!" Pinkie said enthusiastically, shutting the door behind Rainbow Dash. "Now that you're here, what should we do while we wait?" She asked Rainbow Dash only to receive a shrug from her shoulders. Before Pinkie got any other thoughts another knock was heard. She quickly opened the door, to reveal Applejack and Rarity, along with the Cutie Mark Crusaders. Scootaloo, Sweetie Bell and Apple Bloom rushed in, pushing the ponies aside. "Aren't they just a cute sight?" Rarity informed as her and Applejack walked in and received a welcome hug from Pinkie Pie. Scootaloo saw Rainbow Dash floating and quickly ran to her. "Hey Rainbow, Dashie, Rainbow Dash!" Rainbow Dash turned around to see a jumping filly. "Hey, what is it pipsqueak?" Dash asked looking over Scootaloo. "I hope you're gonna show me those awesome tricks you promised me this morning!" Scootaloo stated, excited both by Rainbow Dash and the party. Rainbow Dash nodded with her head, as Scootaloo hugged her hind leg. She let go, running back to her filly friends. Rainbow Dash sighed. Another knock came from the door, Pinkie opened it, Twilight and Flutter shy were standing in front of Pinkie only to be met by a big hug from the pink pony. "I'm glad you made it, this is going to be so much FUN!" Pinkie shouted as everypony looked at her, she was normal, as normal Pinkie Pie acts always cheery and happy, most of the time hyper, on drugs or life, no one will know. Applejack approached Pinkie. "Hey, Big Mac won't be able to come, you know because he's sick, got some kind of fever from the bees. AJ looked at Pinkie waiting for a response. There wasn't one, only a 'mhm' from Pinkie, she was looking at somepony, she was looking at Rainbow Dash. "Okay" AJ backed up from Pinkie and went into the small crowd. Another knock was heard, Pinkie opened the door and spat out words. "SPITFIRE!" That word made Rainbow Dash spill out her drink into the floor, shocked by what Pinkie said. "I'm SO glad you made it, I didn't think you would have some spare time to come!" Pinkie said looking over Spitfire. Spitfire wasn't wearing her Wonder bolt costume, only her haircut was the same as ever. "It looked like I had some time off, so I guessed I should visit your party, after all some of my fans are here" Spitfire spoke in a soft tone, looking around before entering. Rainbow Dash approached her, screaming and shouting in excitement. "Oh my gosh, It-It's you, Spitfire! On Pinkie's party?" Rainbow Dash was confused, why would a 'bad-ass' looking Pegasus would do in a lame party like Pinkie's? "Oh, just had some free time on my hooves, you know, enjoying whatever there is to it" Spitfire was looking deeper at Rainbow Dash, memories came flashing back. "Hey, your that Pegasus that pulled off the Sonic Rainboom, and of course, saved our lives" Spitfire grinned at Rainbow Dash. Dash was flattered, excited to see that she still remembers it. A moment of complete numb silence between the two Pegasus ponies, exchanging looks. Spitfire's eyelids came down, her eyes half way closed, still looking at Rainbow Dash. Dash blushed, her cheeks turned to purple and broke eye contact with Spitfire, too embarrassed to continue the stare. "Aw now, you don't need to be shy" Spitfire hugged Rainbow Dash, burying her head into Dash's shoulder. Rainbow Dash blushed even more, her chest grew hotter and hotter, her temperature raising. Spitfire placed her front hoof unto Dash's forehead, slowly backing away. "Wow, you look a bit hot, how about a seat down?" Spitfire asked, as they both walked up to a fluffy pink couch. Rainbow Dash sat, and Spitfire next to her. A loud knock was heard from the door, Pinkie Pie opened it and saw Soarin, who was standing near a little fridge box, there was lettering on it 'Spitfire's property, hoofs off!' Sorain pushed it in. "Thanks" Spitfire thanked him as he walked away. She dragged it over to Rainbow Dash, opening it, a cold breeze was relished from the fridge box, and saw 3 bottles covered with ice, able to make out the label. 'Jack Dagnels' "What is that?" Rainbow Dash stood up, curiosity flowed through her. "This... is a refreshment" Spitfire answered as opening the bottle, a sore smell flowed through Dash's nose. Spitfire pushed the bottle against Dash's chest. "Drink" And she did so, Dash took the bottle with both of her front hooves and gulped down on it. "Damn, look at you" Spitfire complimented as watching Rainbow Dash drink. Rainbow Dash stopped, coughing and tears forming around her eyes. "I-It's... GREAT!" She shouted as sipped some more. "Whoa, too much will get you drunk, and I've been drunk... whoowhee" Spitfire spoke as taking away the bottle from Rainbow Dash. Dash strongly burped, everypony turned to her. "Ehm... sorry" She apologized as everypony continued doing what their doing. Rainbow Dash felt dizzy and dropped on the sofa. "See, told you, now your gonna get PISSED drunk" Spitfire laughed, looking over the blue, drunk Pegasus. It was night, pitch black outside, the lights around the party room filled it with brightness. Everypony was partying, eating, drinking, laughing telling stories between each other. It was a great night to spend with your friends around. "And I was like, what, *burp* I made funny faces and all but *burp* he stood still, not even a *burp* beep..." Rainbow Dash was completely drunk and out of her mind. Same goes to Spitfire, who lay next to her. "Yep, yeah that's *burp* a great story, yep" Equally drunk and didn't know what they were talking about. There were a lot of conversations going on, the crowd was small, but it sounded like a big, house party. All happy and cheery, having fun, friends and all that stuff. Until Spitfire and Rainbow Dash decide to pull a prank.
