//------------------------------// // Allow Me To Explain Myself // Story: The Cupcake Hospital // by Perry Pinkie Potter //------------------------------// Hi there! I'm Lavender Melody! I run the Cupcake Hospital. Um... Maybe I should explain that. I always wanted to be a doctor, and I got a degree in it, which I'm proud of. But I didn't know what exactly to do. I moved to Ponyville and worked at their hospital. These days ponies ask why I don't anymore. It drives me crazy, because the question they SHOULD be asking is 'Why did that pony mysteriously disappear?' One night at Sugar Cube Corner, I walked in late to get something, but nopony was there. I quietly opened the basement door when I thought I hear noises. And I saw... Things. I quickly closed it before Pinkie could see me. Thank goodness she didn't, or I wouldn't be here right now. I told Celestia immediately, but she didn't believe me. I guess I can't blame her, who would believe that? I knew I couldn't take her on, but that meant I was useless. But I was desperate to do something! That's when I had an idea. I got a home in the Everfree Forest, secluded so I could do my work. Now that I know Pinkie's schedule, I can help ponies escape. AND, I can use my degree to help them. Nopony knows. Only me, my sister Forest Shine, who helps me out, and the ponies who I could save. We are the only ponies who know of Pinkie Pie. We are the only ponies who know of the Cupcake Hospital.
