Author's note: The following chapter is what I envisioned would happen in a world where Princess Pinkamina snapped. It is not part of the main narrative of the story, and can be ignored if you so choose. It is mild grimdark.
"Anywhere! Anywhen!" Whooves shouted to his voice module unit.
The Tardis began it's trip through time, Whooves sighed in relief.
She'd done it, that insane bitch had actually done it! How had it all gone so wrong?
He should have seen what was happening. He hadn't wanted to believe the Element of Laughter could fall so far.
He slammed a hoof on the console, the machinery whined in protest.
-------------------------------------------------
"Nopony knows how to have fun anymore!" Pinkie pouted.
Twilight sighed. They'd been over this so many times. "Pinkie you can't force ponies to have a good time, these are stuffy old aristocrats, of course they don't have fun the same way you do."
"Nothing I try works! I've been holding the Galas for ten years now, every single time it's horrible!" Pinkie's mane, which was normally a fluffy flowing cloud, was now looking more like a pink river. It sometimes amused, sometimes alarmed Twilight how much her mane had come to resemble the cotton candy clouds Discord had made. The connection especially worried her when Pinkie was upset.
"Just keep that smile up Pinkie, if anyone can make them happy, it's you."
Pinkie said nothing.
-------------------------------------------------
The following year Twilight had made time from her studies to check in on Pinkie.
"Come on everypony smile, smile, smile."
The whole dance hall was filled with dancing ponies. A grin frozen on each face. They danced with shuffling feet, their eyes glazed.
"fill my heart up with sunshine, sunshine"
Voices rose, but there was no joy in them, there was no emotion. In the center was Pinkie, her horn glowing, a look of contentment on her face. Her mane flowed. Her eye twitched.
"all I really need's a smile, smile, smile"
Ponies were collapsing from exhaustion. Only to be held up by a pink glow to dance and sing some more.
"From these happy friends of mine."
"Pinkie!" Twilight shouted.
"I did it Twilight! I made them smile! You said I could do it and I did it!" Pinkie's eye twitched again.
"Pinkie stop this, please!"
"You don't understand, I made everypony happy!"
-------------------------------------------------
Her mane was a dark, flowing pink. Her eyes flashed. She stared enraged at the seven ponies surrounding her.
"None of you understand, ponies need to be happy, I MAKE THEM HAPPY!"
Celestia stood firm. "Pinkie you cannot control ponies, they need to live their lives. Happy or sad they need to be free to be who they are!"
"They don't know what they need! I give them what they need!"
"Pinkie please, you need help! Let us help you!" Twilight pleaded with her.
"If you want to help me help me make them all smile!"
"Get ahold of yourself girl! You can't really think you can force ponies to be happy!" Applejack struck Pinkie in the face with her hoof.
Pinkie was silent for a time. Then the horrible laughter began.
"PERHAPS YOU'RE RIGHT, BUT I CAN BRING THEM SUNSHINE!" Her horn glowed so bright it rivaled the sun, which was suddenly moving directly to the spot she stood. There was no reaction time possible for anypony.
The world ended in a laugh.
-------------------------------------------------
Whooves stared at the display on his console. The world was engulfed in the flames of Celestia's Sun.
From the center of the mass he saw a pink abomination. He could hear her laughter, see the madness in her eyes. Seven lights converged on her, so the rest were fighting back. What point now? Equestria was done.
He turned the display off and grimaced. Good lord he needed a stiff drink.
"Old girl, I need to go someplace to think. Think and drink, no strike that and reverse it. Let's crash a party what do you say?"
wow....
Oh well. It is KINDA OOC though. Pinkie only really goes mental when she thinks SHE isn't happy and loved, not when OTHERS aren't.
PINK SNOOTY PINK SNOOTY!
What. The. Buck?!
255009 Oh yes, extremely OOC, but something about a shambling horde of ponies making the smile song sound like a dirge... This chapter can be considered elseworld, it does not, and cannot happen within my private little canon. I am trying to maintain characterization and I don't truly believe this is in Pinkie's character. I wrote it simply to illustrate a point, Whooves wasn't frightened for nothing.
Damn! Nightmare Pie does not screw around! Nightmare Moon just wanted people to enjoy the night and so brought endless night so they'd have no other choice but to admire it. Pinkie just wanted everyone to smile and when confronted about it, burns the planet! How did she even usurp Celestia's control of her sun with her being perfectly fine right in front of her After all, Celestia was only able to take control of the moon after Luna was banished.
A little 'Pony Psychology' with the broken Spirit of Laughter given god-like powers and completely unfettered by restraint.
I like it, though going from smiles and laughter to sunlight was a bit rapid. I'd almost of been better if it was a bit 'Clockwork Orange'-y. A small section of Equestria driven to giggling madness by the insane edits of their god-princess.
255064 Well we're getting into speculation here, but consider this, Luna as Nightmare Moon was able to overpower Celestia until Celestia used the Elements of Harmony. Pinkie Pie is one of the Elements. Furthermore, the Elements themselves are comprised of Alicorns of similar age to Celestia and Luna. Having reached their full transformation, any of the Mane six could in fact control either celestial body. But Pinkie didn't do that, she teleported the sun to herself. There was no wresting for control. She brought it crashing on everypony's head. Now that being said, I don't think even that would kill them, I think in that reality the world was remade. Again, this is not what happened, this is one possibility in the vast bowl of wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff.
255109 Wait a minute, she teleported the sun to herself?
""PERHAPS YOU'RE RIGHT, BUT I CAN BRING THEM SUNSHINE!" Her horn glowed so bright it rivaled the sun, which was suddenly moving directly to the spot she stood. There was no reaction time possible for anypony."
Ok, did not read that as Nightmare Pie teleporting the sun to herself, but as the light from it shining down on, NP.

Don't get me wrong. For what it is it's great. Fantastic even.
But.
One day, someone will write an insane Pinkie and it will be IC.
And we will all smile, smile, smile...
Btw, was that just the random I-woke-up-with-wings-and-a-horn Party or is the never ending party also counting as the Mane 6's Apotheosis Party?
255135 yep, in that moment I turned one of my eight Mary Sues into a God Mode Sue. Sad I know. It was however fun to write that line.
Hmm... I was thinking something more along the lines of deciding to bring Discord back, teaming with him for pranking, and disregarding how it's harmful as long as she herself is happy.
255153 it has been preempted by pinkie, it never needed a theme before, the guests welcomed it as a nice change of pace.
Istheregoingtobeasequel?
Sixteen words off of the perfect word count for this chapter.
255479
Indeed. STEEL RESOLVE! Y U NO FIND WAY TO MAKE WORD COUNT 666?!
255592 its already chapter 13, its about an evil pink destroyer of worlds with a known ability to break the fourth wall, and you want me to saddle the chapter word count with the mark of the beast as well? Do we really want to tempt fate like that? The things I do for a cheap laugh....
256363
Eeyup
What did you add?
256397 "From the center of the mass he saw a pink abomination. He could hear her laughter, see the madness in her eyes. Seven lights converged on her, so the rest were fighting back. What point now? Equestria was done." just a passage confirming what I implied earlier, a sun dropping on an alicorns head won't kill them, it will kill everypony else though.
The amount of words used in this chapter relates to the devil's number. XD
256427 Oh, okay.
256466 That is intended, read these comments: 255479 255592 256363
256537 Already did so, but I could not resist.
That's all?
257677
sure thing! Only thing that might get in my way is a lack of decent recording equipment and little time with the house to myself.
You're going to love me...
Also, how are you guys checking the word count? Are you just copying it into a writing program, or does it say it somewhere on this page?
This is excellently written. Great job, Steel Resolve!
Please tell me you're continuing with this. It's too good to die.
Also, i totally wanna see a bonus chapter for ALL the Elecorns.
Yes I made up a word, what of it?
Just read the bonus chapter and I for one embraces our new pink overlord. All hail the great and mighty Pinkie Pie.
259057 lol don't panic, next chapter in the works. I average about a chapter a day about 1000 words long. the bonus was short for a reason, nightmare pie was not a storyline I wished to explore in any real detail, it was written to explore what might have happened if one of the six went nuts. that and I thought explaining what the hell whooves was trying to avert might be fun. Believe me, I am as excited to write it as you fine people seem to be reading it.
259752 She wasn't trying to take over, she was trying to make everypony's life happy, by ending it with a bang.
260792. Yay, yay what ever. You can say that, but I still welcome our new crazy pink overlord princess with open arms, cake and a nuclear bomb with a pretty pink bow on top.
woah. that's all i have to say. woah.
ah yes, I went there, and I took you with me. smile... or else.

Just one question, Steel Resolve...
How did you survive?
437710 How do you think? I was in the closet on the Tardis. I watched her go all demonic after a promise being broken. I knew something was going down when she turned the gala into a Thriller Video.
1. Smile smile smile started playing as the page loaded...
2. Pinkamena the Alicorn... Yes!!!!
3. I felt like I was falling into my computer as I read this.
Now on to the rest of the chapers, Allonsy!!!
SPOILER ALERT!!!
Ponies were collapsing from exhaustion. Only to be held up by a pink glow to dance and sing some more.
-Ouch... and this isn't even when she SNAPS.
Her mane was a dark, flowing pink. Her eyes flashed. She stared enraged at the seven ponies surrounding her.
-Or maybe it was?
Seven lights converged on her, so the rest were fighting back.
-Ah... in my fanon, Luna probably wouldn't have survived unless Celestia managed to shield her in time. The others... well they are your alicorns.
Someone.. should.. animate this...
Also, it may not be in character for the pinkie we know, but this is years in the future, right? She could have gotten crazier.
called it...

DO NOT watch this video unless you're above the age of 18!
3310941 What the buck was that?
3566022 THAT, my friend, was the wrath of Pinkie Pie.
3566022 ME.
3310941 why did you post this?! Its too disturbing to talk about! I can't believe someone would make this!!
6524312 Pinkie snapping and killing all of her friends? I can't imagine how that would be relevant to this chapter.

Celestia needed the Elements of Harmony, aka, the 'I-win artifact' of the MLP universe, to beat her. This means that Luna is as powerful as Celestia, if not more.
