> Hayngover > by Sliverfish > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Beginning > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author's notes: I wrote this because I felt like doing it, I'm basically making this up as it goes, also this is my first fiction ever so it won't be too good. I will accept any criticism and ideas for future chapters are greatly appreciated. Inspired by "The Hangover". The light shone through the room's blinds, shining across the face of a lavender unicorn slumped in the corner, waking her up. She blinked a few times, making the room clearer. As she stood up, her head began pounding. She noticed her pink friend laying down, face-down on the other side of the room. She went over to her, head still hurting. "Pinkie Pie...." said the unicorn, looking at her friend. "Huh? What is it?" Pinkie Pie slurred, half-asleep. "Come on, get up" replied the lavender mare. As the unicorn stumbled into the other room, Pinkie Pie got up onto her hooves to support herself. The lavender mare spotted one of her friends, a cyan pegasus, slumped next to her orange earth pony friend who was leaning against a wall. The unicorn said to the two of them "Rainbow Dash, Applejack, get up." "Whu- Ow! My head...." said the rainbow mare. The rainbow mare's slurred words woke the orange farmer up. "What in the hay's goin' on?" said the earth pony, adjusting her Stetson. "I don't know, Applejack." moaned Pinkie Pie as she walked into the room. "Wait," asked Rainbow Dash, getting up, "Where's Fluttershy and Rarity?" "Twilight," said Applejack, looking up at her lavender friend, "Do you know where those two are?" "No. These are the only two rooms in this place and they're not in either room." "Wait. This isn't our hotel. Where the fuck are we?" asked Rainbow Dash. Twilight Sparkle looked out the window, looking across the city of Las Pegasus. She turned back to her rainbow-maned friend. "I don't know...." 48 hours earlier In Ponyville Twilight Sparkle was talking to Rainbow Dash as she was handing her the newest Daring Do book when Fluttershy ran into the library. "Girls! Girls! I got great news!" Fluttershy yelled, well not so much yelled as whispered, but the volume her voice normally is made this seem like yelling. The two mares turned their heads to their yellow pegasus friend who seemed happier than ever. "Big Macintosh told me to meet me at Sweet Apple Acres. When I found him he was holding a wedding band and he asked me to marry him and I said yes!" Rainbow Dash was the first to speak up. "Wow, that's amazing!" "Congratulations, Fluttershy!" Twilight said to her soon-to-be-married friend. Within half an hour, the others heard the good news. "So," Twilight asked the bride-to-be, "Where are you going to have the bachelorette party?" "OOH! OOH! How about Sugarcube Corner?" Pinkie Pie chimed in while bouncing up and down. "Darling, this is a bachelorette party, not a birthday." Rarity said to the pink party mare, who stopped bouncing hearing this. "Yeah, besides, "Rainbow Dash added, "I know a place that'll be 200% cooler than Sugar Cube Corner." "Where?" Applejack asked. "Las Pegasus." "That sounds good. What do you think, Fluttershy?" Twilight asked. "I guess that'll be okay." The bride-to-be answered. "AWWWW, YEAH!" yelled the cyan pegasus. So, the six friends packed their bags and headed for Las Pegasus. Las Pegasus, Night The six immediately checked into their suite at The Neighllagio and entered their room. For them it was like steeping into their own paradise. For Rarity, it was like stepping into a hotel room. Rainbow Dash went straight to the mini-fridge, brought out 6 bottles of apple cider and gave each pony a bottle. "Um, girls," Fluttershy whispered, "I have something I'd like to say, if you don't mind." The other five turned to the yellow mare. "I used to be a young, shy filly, all by myself in this world, until I met Rainbow Dash," she said, turning to her rainbow-maned friend. She smiled back. "It was so great to have someone I could call a friend. And as time went on, I met you girls. You all helped me come out of my shell. If I never met you girls, I might not even be getting married. Thank you all." "A toast," said Rainbow Dash, raising her bottle in the air, "To what may be they greatest night of our lives!" The rest raised their bottles, clinking them. "CHEERS!" Said all 6 mares. Author's notes: Well, that's the first chapter. If you would like to suggest chapter ideas, I'll gladly accept them if you post them in the comment section. Any feedback is appreciated. > Finding Rarity > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The four mares were searching whatever place they were in for clues as to what went down the previous night. "Find anythin' girls?" shouted Applejack. "Nope." "Nopie Wopie!" "I got something." Twilight Sparkle replied. The other three saw the lavender unicorn holding something. What was it? "It looks like a hoof band." said Rainbow Dash. "That's not it. It says "Las Pegasus Medical Center. Patient:.... Miss Rarity?!" "What in tarnation?" Applejack responded. "It says her discharge date is today." Twilight Sparkle said. "Well, what the hay are we waiting for? Let's GO!" Rainbow Dash shouted. And so, the four raced to the Las Pegasus Medical Center. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I wonder what Rarity's in hospital for?" Pinkie Pie said. "Twilight, did the hoof band say why?" Rainbow Dash asked. "I don't think so." Twilight Sparkle responded. When they arrived, they saw their indigo-maned friend standing outside the center. "Hey, Rarity." greeted Twilight Sparkle. "Hello, girls. I thought you were going to come here a half hour ago." said Rarity. "Sorry," Rainbow Dash replied. "So, why were you in hospital? And why do we have your hoof band?" "They say it was alcohol poisoning. And I gave it to you because I could tell you wouldn't remember to come here without a reminder." Rarity said. "Wow, no wonder we can't remember anything.We were wacked out of our minds." Rainbow Dash added. "Well, at least we found Rarity. But where's Fluttershy?" Twilight Sparkle asked. "I don't have a clue." Rarity said. "Everypony, check your phones." said Rainbow Dash. "What?" said Pinkie Pie. "Come on," Rainbow Dash replied. "Check your phones for new contacts, texts, places, anything." The five mares each whipped out their phones and searched every part of it. "Ah got nothin'." "Nope." "I've got nothing." "I got a text from Mrs Cake at 11 PM last night." said Pinkie Pie. "Have fun in las pegasus, sweetie! :)" "Oh." said Twilight Sparkle. "Well I don't have anything either." "Damn it," Rainbow Dash sighed. "We gotta call somepony." "How about Big Macintosh?" Pinkie Pie suggested. "Oh yeah, that's a REAL bucking great idea, Pinkie." the cyan pegasus replied sarcastically. "Tell the groom that his bride is missing in Las Pegasus." "Fine. How about the Cakes'? We can trust them!" Pinkie Pie suggested. "Okay. Pinkie, call them." Twilight Sparkle said to the hyperactive pink pony. Pinkie whipped out her phone and dialed in The Cakes' number. The 5 were anxiously waiting for someone to answer. "Hello, you've reached Sugarcube Corner. We can't take your call right now so if it's business-related, leave a message and we'll get back to you." "Voicemail." Pinkie Pie said, putting back her phone. "Well, what the hay are we gonna do now?" Applejack said. "Well that's easy. We have to find out who wrote this note!" Pinkie Pie said, holding up a piece of paper. "Where'd you get that?!" Rainbow Dash asked, snatching the paper out of the pink mare's hand. "It was in my pocket when we woke up." Pinkie Pie said. 8:30 AM, 17 Unicorn Ave. Be there with 20,000 bits if you wanna see your friend. -Stan The Stallion Applejack panicked at the name. "STAN THE STALLION?!" "Who's Stan The Stallion?" Twilight Sparkle asked? "Stan The Stallion used to be the most dangerous criminal in Appleloosa when me, Bic Macintosh, Granny Smith and our parents lived there." "Really?!" Pinkie Pie gasped. "Well, what are we gonna do?" Twilight Sparkle asked. "DUH! We go find this meanie and get him to give us Fluttershy back!" Pinkie Pie shouted. "Pinkie, do you have any idea where we can get 20,000 bits by tomorrow morning?" "We're in Las Pegasus. And what is Las Pegasus filled with?" Pinkie Pie asked. "Casinos?" Twilight Sparkle guessed. "BINGO! No wait, I mean yes. Casinos. I don't think they have bingo here!" Pinkie Pie replied "Darling, how are we EVER going to earn THAT much money by tomorrow?" Rarity asked. "Leave that to me!" Pinkie Pie said. "So, what in tarnation are we waitin' for?" Applejack asked. "Let's go!" said Rainbow Dash. Author's notes: Well, that's chapter two. It's short because I need to go to bed pretty soon. Any ideas for future chapters/stories is welcome because I'm having some troubles thinking of ideas. > Pinkie Senses, Roulette and Roofies > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Pinkie, how exactly are you going to win?" Twilight Sparkle asked the pink earth pony. "DUH, Pinkie Sense!" Pinkie Pie replied. "Okay, I understand that you can use your "Pinkie Sense" to predict when scary stuff is going to happen and when I'm going to fall into a ditch, but I don't think you can use it to win roulette!" "Twilight, Ah think it's best to let Pinkie do this. Besides, what other option do we have? She's the only one here who actually understands the rules!" Applejack said to her unicorn friend. Twilight eventually agreed. With that, the five mares entered the casino. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Okay, you wait there and I'll go to the roulette table." Pinkie Pie said to her friends. "Okay...." Twilight Sparkle said, confused. So the four watched Pinkie Pie sitting at the roulette table. They had no clue what she was doing, but they could tell by the casino chips stack in front of Pinkie Pie rising slowly but surely, they could tell she was doing it right. In the space of a few hours, she won 21,300 bits. "OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH! I DID IT!" the pink party mare screamed while bouncing over to her friends. "Yes! Now we can get Fluttershy back!" Rainbow Dash said. The five mares exited the casino, relieved that in about 45 minutes, all their troubles would be over. "TAXI!" Rainbow Dash hailed a taxi for the five mares including herself. Rarity demanded to be in the front to avoid having her mane ruined by being squashed. So Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle all crammed into the back seat. "So, where do you wanna go?" asked the driver. Rainbow Dash told him the address. "And hurry." "Okay." When they arrived, they saw a small house with the number "17" on it. This must have been the place. It couldn't have had more than one room. They went to the door and knocked. Rainbow Dash was carrying a bag containing the bits. The door opened and inside was a large dark gray stallion, almost as large as Big Macintosh. Another, smaller stallion was holding a squirming bag next to him. "You're early." the smaller stallion said. "Applejack. It's been a while. How are your parents?" said who must have been Stan The Stallion before chuckling. Applejack had half a mind to best this guy to a pulp, but that could wait - for now. "Give us our friend back." Rainbow Dash said. "Give us the money." Stan The Stallion said. "No, our friend." "No, the money." "Okay, okay, let's calm down." said the smaller stallion. "You put your bag in the middle and we put OURS in the middle. I collect the money and count it, and if it's the right amount, YOU take your friend." "Okie Dokie!" said Pinkie Pie. Rainbow Dash put the bits in the middle of the room, then took a step back. The smaller stallion put their bag in the middle and picked up the bag of bits. Once they were all counted, he zipped the bag up. "Okay. Now you can have your friend." The five rushed to the middle, picked the bag up and went outside. They opened the bag to reveal not their friend but - "CARAMEL?!" "Oh, THANK CELESTIA you came! Oh, hey Pinkie." said the light amber earth pony. "HI!" replied the hyperactive mare. "Great, WE WENT THROUGH ALL THAT FOR NOTHING?!" Rainbow Dash shouted. "Rainbow Dash, I think it's time." Twilight Sparkle said, handing the cyan pegasus her phone. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Big Macintosh was pacing inside the Wedding Chapel. The Neighllagio said they hadn't seen Fluttershy at all. When suddenly his phone rang. He immediately answered. "Hello?" "...It's Rainbow Dash." "Rainbow Dash? Why are you callin'? Did you find Fluttershy?" "Yeah.... listen." "What?" "...We fucked up." Rainbow Dash went on to describe most of the story. Pinkie Pie was talking to Caramel. "I told you not to take those pills." Caramel said to the pink pony. "I know. But I just wanted my friends to have a good time." "Hey Pinkie," Twilight Sparkle said to her friend, "What are you talking about?" "I'm sorry. I just wanted you girls to have fun." "What the hay are you talkin' about?" Applejack said as she and Rarity came over. "SOMEPONY roofied your drinks." Caramel said. "What?!" Applejack shouted in shock. Rainbow Dash hear the whole conversation and on the inside was angry at her party friend, but she needed to focus on explaining the situation "Can Ah talk to mah sister?" Big Macintosh asked. "Sure." Once Rainbow Dash passed the phone to Applejack, she realised they'd searched almost all of Las Pegasus for their friend. Almost.... Almost.... Her eyes widened. She has just realised where Fluttershy is. "... Ah know, big brother. I just-" Rainbow Dash ripped the phone out of her friend's hand. "WAIT! Big Macintosh, forget everything I just said. The wedding is still on!" The cyan pegasus shouted quickly before hanging up. "Big Macintosh?" Applebloom walked into the room. "What's goin' on?" "I don't know, little sister. I don't know." --------------------------------------------------------- "So can you tell us why we're going back to our hotel?" Twilight Sparkle asked. "What's the one place we haven't looked for Fluttershy?" The other four (and Caramel) realised where Fluttershy was. "Ah hope we can make it in time." Applejack said. "If we hurry, we can." Rainbow Dash replied. -------------------------------------------------------- The five mares and one stallion burst into their suite and found Fluttershy, alive and well (albeit tired). "FLUTTERSHY!" shouted the mares. "Oh, hello girls. How was your 'night out in Las Pegasus'?" Fluttershy asked. "Never mind that. Why are you here?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Well, I didn't feel like going out, so I told you girls I'd just stay here. Why, don't you remember?" "Nope." Pinkie Pie replied. "Oh. Well, I guess we should get going. If, that's okay with you." The six mares along with Caramel then headed off to the chapel. ------------------------------------------------- Big Macintosh was listening to Rarity, Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash tell the whole story, start to finish with his new wife. "It sucks we can't remember what happened during that night." Rainbow Dash said "Well THOSE stories would've been hilarious to hear." Big Macintosh replied. "Hey, Pinkie, is this yours?" Caramel walked up to the group, holding a camera in his mouth. "THANKS! I was wondering where it went!" "I kinda looked at some of the photos. A lot of them were from that night. Some of them are pretty messed up." "Okay. Let's look once, then delete them." Rainbow Dash said. The whole group surrounded Pinkie Pie as she held up the camera. "EEWWW!" "Simply disgusting." "GROSS!" "That's messed up!" "Eeyup." THE END Author's notes: Well, that's the last chapter. Probably not as good as I envisioned, but eh, it's my first fic. Any feedback is accepted. Thank's for reading "Hayngover". Inspired by the Todd Phillips movie "The Hangover".
