//------------------------------// // Chapter 3 // Story: Pinkie the Candy Princess // by Creativa-Artly01 //------------------------------// That night in her bed, Princess Pinkie thinks about the wedding. It may be three months away, but she can't help but be nervous. She then begins to sing. "Is this wedding the right path to take? Is it worth the union? Am I doing the right thing? I've loved King Cheese since we were foals. Now I get to become his bride. I can't help but feel excited but I'm still nervous inside. Our two kingdoms are soon to become one. That's a very big change. Will everything turn out okay? I guess I'll see in three months time. I guess I'll see in three months time." Not long after she finishes the song, she drifts off to sleep. Tomorrow, she's going to be getting fitted for the wedding dress. She's excited, but alas, she can't help but be just as nervous. The next morning, Princess Pinkie heads off to her dress fitting with her dress fitters Lollydiamond and Raritus. "How does that feel?" asks Raritus as she yanks the dress. "Feels great," groans Princess Pinkie. "Can you loosen it any?" "It's called form-fitting dear," replies Raritus, rolling her eyes, "but sure, I can loosen it a little bit for you, your majesty." "Thank you," replies Princess Pinkie with a smile. Meanwhile, in another part of the castle, Lady in Waiting Starlight is helping Princess Maudine prank the jesters. The two are having a blast. They always love playing pranks on the jesters. It's their favorite past time. "Thanks for pranking the jesters with me," giggles Maudine as she turns to Starlight. "Don't mention it," replies Lady in Waiting Starlight giggling as well. Starlight then lets the bucket loose with her magic, dumping glitter filled water all over the Jesters. The jesters then burst out laughing as do Maudine and Starlight. "Don't tell Princess Pinkie, but I think you're the more fun of the two of you," laughs Starlight. "I won't tell, cross my heart hope to fly stick a cupcake in my eye," replies Princess Maudine with a smile. The two then run off to go prank the guards, their second most favorite past time. Two hours later, Princess Pinkie is released from the fitting by Raritus and Lollydiamond. She sighs a sigh of relief and heads off to her bowling alley room to roll several rounds to help her unwind. Little does she know her sister and Starlight have been pranking jesters and guards all afternoon without her. Alas, at this point, she doesn't really care. She rolls the ball down the alley, getting a strike. She then proceeds to get strike upon strike upon strike, soon getting tired of the game and going off to watch a movie in the cinema room. At least, she still has time to herself to watch movies, play games, and have time to let go and unwind.
