MMMMurder on the Friendship Express: Friends, We Meet Again! Edition

“So!” Her sky-blue eyes shadowed slightly by the small brim of her checkered grey deerstalker hat, Pinkie Pie blew bubbles out of her brown pipe as she regarded her friends, but also suspects… and also a ‘friend’ so intolerable that everypony present is clutching a used barf bag—

BLARGCHKK

...with some ponies present still using them.

“We know Prince Blueblood was found in his personal quarters, dead!” Pinkie took a moment to procure a small handkerchief from a nondescript spot on her mane, with which she wiped her mouth clean of morning breakfast remnants before continuing, “Death by vomit-induced asphyxiation! And I have finally figured out who the—urk—culprit is!”

Rainbow Dash lifted her head out of her barf bag to roll her eyes. “Pinkie, we all know who is responsible for this!”

Murmurs of agreement came from the rest of the group, to the confusion of one who stood among them that was not presently emptying their stomach contents.

“Friends!” came a soothingly sultry voice like a serene birdsong mashed together with an uplifting church choir from the prismatic, bombastic, friendly fluid factory known as Princess Changeling Rainbow Magic Pants. “Fear not, for I can explain! Once I prepare some Mucus of Clarity, all shall become clear!”

“The heck you will!” Pinkie exclaimed as she bolted out the train car door. “Everypony, BAIL OUT!”

Applejack wasted no time at the order as she dove for the nearest window andsmashed it without any apparent care of injury to herself, but not before grabbing a little dragon’s barf bag on her way out.

“Hey!” Spike yelled after Applejack. “I was using that!”

“Ah can find a better use for it far, far away~” Applejack trailed off as her body cleared the window as she tucked and rolled onto the grassy plains with little glass fragments following her trail.

Dash wasted no time either as she smashed the nearest window, blasting out of the train car with such speed it nearly threatened to cause a Rainboom.

“Hmph! A lady should never make such a brash exit!” Rarity declared before running to the closest window and gently opening it with her magic. “One should be proper when evacuating, like so!” she declared before promptly throwing herself out of the car.

Magic Pants looked around the train car with gleaming, sparkling, glittering eyes reflecting the deepest abyss of understanding of the world around her before focusing them on Twilight’s deep, but far less understanding, violet eyes. “Well, my daughter, I hope you can stay long enough for me to—“

“Nooooooooooope!” Twilight cried out before disappearing in a flash of pink light, taking Spike and a cowering Fluttershy with her.

Alone in the car, Magic Pants remained undaunted. “Very well. I shall save the tale for another time, dear friends!”

“No you won’t!” Pinkie screamed from outside the train car door, holding a thick metal pin in one hoof and wearing a smile of half-panic, half-glee, and half-crazy. “Not now, not ever!” She followed this up with laughter, glorious mirthful laughter, as the cars decoupled and Pinkie gradually sped away.

Her last words were spoken in a bold shout:

“Never everever FOREVERRRRR!”
