The mad mare of choice

by OnASeaOfDreams


The voices don't get me to do things.... I get them to do things for me, silly.

Pinkie Pie was hard at work, baking delicious looking treats early that morning. After hours of work, a thin layer of flour coated the counters and floor. Splotches of icing decorated the kitchen, and sprinkles danced down off the edge of the table tops.

"Well, how are things going in here dearie?" A Teal mare asked the pink baker.

"It's going great Mrs Cake, today's orders are almost done, and just in time too! I've got a Birthday party to plan!" The pink mare exclaimed. "It also looks like my author friend is back!"

"Oh that's nice dear! Tell him I say hi, ok sweetie." Mrs Cake asked Pinkie Pie.

"He already knows Mrs Cake!"

"That's goooood dear!" The Teal pony said, before turning to leave the kitchen, a mild hint of shock encapsulating her thoughts! It didn't quite reach the all to familiar feeling of trauma, that can plague ponies, especially when confronted with a seemingly obscure statement. With how familiar 'Mrs Cake' was to Pinkie Pie, she had most likely adapted herself to the randomness of the Pink mare.

"Are you done yet?" Pinkie asked, while tapping her hoof on the counter.

Ya, I think so. I've run out of big confusing words anyhow!

"Okie Dokie Loki!"

"Oh just in case your wondering, it's Berry Punch's Birthday today!" Pinkie Pie answered; the as of yet unspoken; author's question!

Thanks.

"Awwww don't mention it!"

With a audible dinging sound, the baking was done! Pinkie Pie with a playful grin; and a pair of oven mitts; opened the oven and she removed the cakes! "Mmmmmm, can you smell that! It is the bestest smell in all of Equestria! Fresh baked goods!" Pinkie Pie said to no one!

I can't actually smell it, but my mouth is watering just thinking of it!

"That's to bad, mister author guy, but you aren't no one! What is your name anyhow?" The party mare asked!

No, don't stress about that. I actually don't exit in this world. Well I kinda do,
as I can see it all in my head! I'm just the author of this story if that makes sense?

"Ohhhh, and I'm in the story then, that is sooooo cool! What is the story about anyhow?" Pinkie spoke aloud to the air, as she expertly iced the cooling cakes.

Well, it looks like it will have a comedy, and slice of life title on it!

"Ok then, let's slice it up, and get down to the party!" The Pink mare shouted, as streamers erupted for nowhere.

Now your talking, but I'll be right back. I should say something about this 'Berry Punch' if it is her party!

"Ok mister author, she lives three blocks down, just take a right!" Pinkie Pie explained, as she began to pack the cake.

Thanks Pinkie, see you at the Party!

The ill named, but colourful, 'Ponyville' was bustling with ponies. Lunch time had arrived and the restaurants were full. Searching for one particular mare, could of been a challenge, but the author was wily, and the first thing he learned was that the marks on the ponies rear ends, had something to do with that ponies name! The second thing are intelligent, handsome and creative author learned, was that talking in the second person, probably meant you were insane, but he was cool with that!

Exactly three blocks away; give or take a garden or two; was the mare in question. The tattoo of grapes and berries on her butt gave her away.

"Heya Berry, I've come to pick up that juice order! Is it ready yet?" A slender, grey pony, in a blue set of overalls asked.

"Of coarse Steady Supply, it's just over there!" Berry Punch said, as she finished bottling the last of the beverage. "Alright! That, should, do it!"

"Wow, you're done early!" Steady said.

"I know, I had too! It's my birthday today, and I got plans to go out. I'm meeting up with my friends early; so we can plan things out!" She sung out happily.

"That's great Berry! Happy birthday!" Steady Supply congratulated her, with a hurried half cocked smile.

-----

"Oh Author. Author... HEY AUTHOR!!!!!!" Pinkie screamed. "Oh good there you are, so what did you find out about tonight?" The pink mare asked.

Only that she's done her orders early, and she's almost ready to meet up with her friends.

"Oh no, oh no, not good. This is awful..." the party mare announced, as she bit her lip.

What's wrong now?

"I haven't talked to Cheerilee or Carrot Top yet; they don't know to come over here after diner. Author pony I really need your help!" She asked the nothingness in a pleading manner.

Ummmm, ok, what did you have in mind?

"You'll have to distract her while I bolt over and tell them!" Pinkie strategized, as she; all of a sudden; dawned a trench coat, and a pair of sunglasses in a attempt to play the bit of a undercover spy.

How am I supposed to 'distract' Berry Punch, I don't even exist here?

"Oh you'll think of something!" The presumptuous mare said, as she ran off ditching her accessories!.....

"I CAN STILL HEAR YOU!"

The delivery colt finished loading his cart as Berry was cleaning up. He then proceeded to pull out a clipboard with a pen before approaching Berry.

"Please fihqox wipodit fout" Steady Supply said.

A bewildered Berry Punch looked up, confusion written all across her face. "Excuse me, I didn't quite get that?" Asked the dumbfounded mare.

"Giyyedouf wfggiqwazzel gz eloupdour papers!" Steady repeated in a holy nonsensical language.

She looked at him, almost cross eyed before shaking her head rapidity, closing her eyes, and putting a hoof to the left side of her head to massage her temple. "Ok, one more time?"

"Lcvidious Ozic sign gugafiwixo jozzufirin" He repeated very slowly.

"You want me to sign the papers?" Berry asked him, repeating his slow, off putting tone.

Nodding in a slow deliberate speed, Steady Supply held out the clip board for Berry to take. When she finished, the confused looking mare handed it back to the colt.

"Alright, thank you miss, but I think you may want to go get yourself checked out at the hospital. You seem a little out of it!"

"Ya, ya, that sounds like a good idea" Berry Punch agreed, still looking peaked, and out of sorts.

"Goooood ok, so again have a happy birthday doll, and I'll see ya tomorrow!"

"Ummm thank you!" Berry said before leaving for the hospital.

Ha the hospitals that way, I passed it when I got here!

"Thanks... wait, who said that?" Berry Punch said, after doing a one eighty towards the hospital!

Oops!

"Who's there already!!! Uuggggg."
