Pinkie Pie didn't like mirrors. There was a very good reason why, and nopony but her knew it. However, today, she really needed a mirror. She gulped and looked into the mirror slowly, breathing a sigh of relief when she saw only herself. She set about fixing her mane, her reflection copying her every move. Then it did something unexpected. Her reflection reached beyond the frame and grabbed a straightener. The reflection began straightening her mane quickly, a grin slowly spreading on it's face. Pinkie gasped and started shaking her head to clear it, but the reflection wouldn't return to normal.
"Hello Pinkie." It said once its mane was straightened completetly. "It's been awhile. How are you, how are your friends?"
"Like you'd like to know!" Pinkie Pointed accusingly at the reflection. "All you do is pull me away from them, make me hate them and make me want to hurt them! You don't care at all!"
"You're right. I don't care." The reflection leaned against the mirror's frame and inspected her hoof. "I don't care at all. In fact, once I get out of here, your friends are all as good as dead."
"You'll never get out."
"Oh, won't I?" The reflection stood up on her hind legs and placed her front hooves on the glass. "I've been working on it for a while, and I think I've just about got it." She slammed her hoof into the glass, sending spiderweb cracks across its surface. Pinkie jumped back in shock and watched as the glass slowly started to fall from the frame and shatter on the floor. Pinkie began screaming as her reflection stepped out of the mirror and began laughing maniacally.
"Pinkie Pie? Pinkie, are you okay?" A voice called from the other side of Pinkie's bedroom door. "Pinkie, I'm coming in!" The door burst open and Mr. Cake ran inside, baseball bat in his mouth. He dropped the bat and raised an eyebrow. Pinkie was sitting on her bed, her mane was straight and her hoof was cut and bloody. The shattered remains of a mirror scattered across the floor.
"Pinkie Pie, what happened?" Mr. Cake approached her.
"I-I, I saw a spider."
"A spider?" Mr. Cake observed the scene with doubt.
"And I panicked."
"Okay... Well, come with me, we'll get that hoof cleaned up."
"O-Okay, thank you, Mr. Cake." Pinkie stood up and followed Mr. Cake out of the room. She cast one last look at the shattered mirror and shuddered as a hundred Mini-Pinkemena Diane Pies watched her with looks of hatred and rage from the shattered pieces of glass.
And then.... Cupcakes was born
Very well done. Love it
3060685 Thank you, thank you much!
Personally, I hate Cupcakes, and everything related to it. Also, the ending is bit confusing - I'm not entirely sure which Pinkie Pinkie is now.
3061870 this isn't really "cupcakes" Pinkamena, its more along the lines of my own interpritation of her that lives within Pinkie's mind. I also hate cupcakes (mainly because I hate horror and overly-gorey material) but the concept interests me enough to catch my attention. The pinkie at the end is your decision, whatever you feel like believing.
3062238 "The pinkie at the end is your decision, whatever you feel like believing." HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE SO MUCH HAAAAATE stories that do so. It's the WORST. WRITING TRICK. EVER.
Unless you are a impossibly famous poet from over 100 years ago, like Shakespeare, Plato, or my home country's hero Mickiewicz, that teachers force on their pupils to read their works, making ambiguous ending WON'T win you fans.
3064708 give the fact that Pinkemena is a name usually used for Pinkie's dark side and the chapter ends like this:
I'd say happy pinkie's still in control. For the moment ~C.Spirit
3064708 Who said I was doing this for fans? I'm doing this for my own entertainment, and no one is forcing you to read this anyway.
3065030 I like the way you think
3065276 Hmm How so?
Now I'm thinking Evil Dead w and Army of Darkness
3062238 I hate cupcakes too!
3064708 Ambiguity leaves a story up for the reader to interpret it in their own way. I think this little tidbit pulled it off really well, and clearly it keeps you thinking beyond the end of the story; such is the point of doing this kind of ending.
And on a final note; this is an amateur fanfiction site. Comparing it to Shakespearean works makes everyone -even yourself- unhappy.

(I know this is a late post compared to your comments but meh) Actually, Cupcakes was written BEFORE 'Party of One', when Pinkamena with straight hair was introduced, meaning the whole thing about Straight Hair Pinkie being associated with Cupcakes is false.
I just gave you a little lesson
