No one had questioned Pinkie Pie when she asked them to attend a 'special' party at her house. Sunset Shimmer, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, and Rarity had all been free that day, so why wouldn't they attend? Each of them were curious as to what was so 'special' about the party, but everytime they asked Pinkie, she would start giggling and say "It's a supriiiise!".
The party was at Pinkie's house in what she called her party room. It was pretty much her own personal living room. According to Maud, their parents had it built for Pinkie so that she could be herself and not mess up the neatness of the house. The party had, up to that point, been like any other Pinkie Pie Party. Balloons; games; random blasts from her party cannon; Gummy getting into the punch bowl (much to Rarity's disgust); the whole nine yards. It was as fun as any other Pinkie Pie party, but none of the girls could figure out what was so 'special' about it.
Eventually, Pinkie left to the kitchen and came back with a tray of cupcakes. "Hey, everybody! Come get your cupcakes! I made each one special for each of you! See!"
The others looked and saw that their were seven cupcakes, each with a different color of frosting. There was a cyan-frosted one for Rainbow Dash. A purple-frosted one for Twilight. A light pink-frosted one for Fluttershy. An orange-frosted one for Applejack. A white-frosted one for Rarity. A yellow-frosted one for Sunset. And, of course, a dark pink-frosted one for Pinkie Pie herself.
Each girl took their respective cupcake and dug in.
"Tastes great, Pinkie." Sunset complimented after swallowing. "Though, it tastes a little... different."
Pinkie giggled as she licked frosting off her lip. "Oh, I've been trying this, hehe, new recipe."
"Uh-huh," Sunset couldn't help but feel like something was up, but she wasn't sure what it was. "So, Pinkie, when are you gonna tell us the 'special' part of this special party?"
Rainbow nodded. "Yeah; when are you gonna spill the beans?"
Pinkie had an unusually sinister smile on her face as she looked at each of her friends. She looked at her watch and chuckled. "Well, I guess I can tell you all now. Hehe. Okay, I've been working on something totally amazing that I want you all to be part of!"
That got the girls' interested.
"'Totally amazing' you say?" Rainbow liked the sound of that.
"Pray tell, what sort of project are..." Rarity shook her head. "Uh, pardon me, darling. I... I feel dizzy all the sudden."
"Yeah, Ah feel dizzy too." Applejack held her head.
Sunset felt it to. She looked to see the other girls were feeling the same way. She looked down at her hands as her vision started becoming blurry. "Pi...Pinkie... What was... in that..." That's all Sunset could get out before she fell to the floor unconscious.
The others followed suit, leaving only Pinkie still standing.
Pinkie proceeded to do an evil laugh that she had been working on. "MWAHAHAHAHAHA AHAHAHAHAHA! Now, if only I had some lightning..."
At that moment, Maud entered the room.
Pinkie turned and smiled at her sister. "Oh, hi, Maud."
"Hi, Pinkie." Maud greeted in her monotone voice. She looked behind her sister and took in the scene. "...Why are your friends unconscious on the floor?"
"Oh, because I baked crushed up sleeping pills into their cupcakes. I even covered each one with a different colored frosting so that I new which one wasn't drugged." Pinkie explained.
"Interesting. But why did you drug them?"
"Well, I saw this really scary movie where this creepy guy with a really creepy puppet makes people escape from death traps. At first, I was like 'that's so horrible' but after a while I started thinking 'maybe I can make that fun'. So, I've been working on a series of rooms underneath the house with what I like to call 'prank traps'!" Pinkie's smile widened. "And I'm gonna give them instructions on how to get out just like in the movie! And if they fail, they get pranked! It's gonna be so much fun!"
Maud stared at her excited sister for a moment. "...Are you sure they won't be mad?"
Pinkie shrugged. "Meh, maybe a little at first. But once it's all said and done, they'll realize how much fun they had and we'll all have a good laugh!" She stated with certainty.
"If you say so."
Pinkie looked to her sleeping friends then back to Maud. "Would you mind, uh, helping me get them to the prank rooms?" She asked sheepishly.
"Sorry, Pinkie. When they get out, I want to be able to say I had nothing to do with it. So, no." With that, Maud turned and left.
Pinkie turned around and picked up her toothless baby alligator. "Well, looks like it's just you and me, Gummy."
Gummy licked one of his eyes.
Pinkie plopped herself down in a rolling chair and turned on the cameras. Six screens flashed to live and showed the images from each camera. Camera 1/1 showed Fluttershy. Camera 1/2 showed Sunset. Camera 1/3 showed Rainbow Dash. Camera 1/4 showed Twilight. Camera 1/5 showed Rarity. Camera 1/6 showed Applejack. All the girls were still asleep.
"Camera's are okie-doki-loki!" Pinkie then turned on six of the trap timers one by one. Each timer was connected to their respective screen and would allow Pinkie to control when the time alarms are set on the traps. "Prank Trap Timers are fully functioning!" She pressed a button that said 'Puppet'.
A few yards away from the party girl, sitting atop Pinkie's party cannon, a puppet resembling Pinkie's pony counterpart roared to life. In front of the puppet was a camera that would broadcast the puppet to each of Pinkie's friends via screens in the prank rooms. Pinkie had wired the puppet's mouth to move in response to voices, giving it the impression that it was talking. "Puppet ready for action!"
She brought a voice changer like the one she saw in Scream to her mouth. "Voice changer... working!" She said in a dark, distorted voice that perfectly matched the one she had heard from Saw. "Woah! I sound creepy! Hehe! I will eat your soul, mortal!" Pinkie laughed and set down the voice changer. She had already ran the tests with the microphone and speakers, so everything was in place.
Pinkie spun around in her chair to look at Gummy, who was playing with a ball of yarn. "Everything's perfect, Gummy! I even measured how much sleeping powder I put in each cupcake to make sure they wake up one at a time and I can give each of them instructions as soon as they wake up!" The party girl smiled big in pure delighted. "Oh, this is so awesome!" She turned to face the screen and put on her game face. "Now, let the games... begin."
