POV "Come on, cheer up and have some fun," my friend said to try and cheer me up. I sighed. "I appreciate you trying to cheer me up, especially after my… parents’ deaths, but I guess... I'm just upset that I couldn't finish my costume..." I said with a soft chuckle. I was dressed up as pennywise from IT chapter 2 but I was missing both the wig and glowing eye contact lenses. "Well I'm gonna go see what they’ve got to sell at the booths, so I'll see you later, okay?" I said, trying to get out of the topic of my dead parents. Long story short, my parents were murdered at a bank, some kind of terrorist group attacked, and killed everyone inside. "Okay, I'll see you in an hour, we'll meet here when were ready to leave, okay?" Jake stated as I began to walk towards the vendors’ section. "Okay Jake, and.. thanks for...looking out for me, after everything," I say with a genuine smile. Jake just smiled back, then said, "No problem, now let's go have fun." We parted ways and I went to the booth selling different costumes to see if I could find anything to complete my costume. I looked around for a while till I heard a voice calling out to me. "Ah, hello there miss, I couldn't help but notice your Pennywise costume was missing some... important details," said the vender occupying a booth to my left. The vender himself looked like the resident evil 4 merchant. I just gave him a questioning eyebrow then shrugged and walked over to his booth. “Hiya there mister Merchant, you wouldn't happen to have the type of wig I'm looking for, do you?" I asked. He thought for a moment, then shook his head, "'I'm sorry miss but, alas, I do not," he said. I looked down in disappointment. "However..." he continued, "I do have a wig that comes with a pair of yellow contact lenses, and an MLP cutie mark," he said, pulling out the items. I looked at them, the wig was a mix of pink and orange, and the contacts were the exact types I was looking for, yet the MLP cutie mark was what had most of my attention. It was Pinkie Pie's cutie mark, but had different colors. The balloon on the left was yellow, the one in the middle was white, and the one on the right was red. After looking at the items for God-knows-how-long, I looked up to the merchant. "How much?" I asked. "These are on a discount, so about 20 dollars," he said. I just looked at him for a moment, shocked at the low-price, then I shook myself out of it, and handed him the money. I put the wig on first, then the contacts, and, just because I wanted to, I stapled the cutie mark on, where it looks like it should be for a pony. I began to walk away before the merchant spoke, "Have a nice new life, hope it ends better than this one." I turned to ask him what he meant by that, but before I could, I started to get a headache, and I began to get really hungry before everything went black. Equestria, Rockville, 3 miles away from the Pie Family Rock Farm, 3rd person POV It was just another day on the rock farm, Mister and Missus Pie were just heading into their house when they heard a noise, and looked up to see a meteor shower but then they saw one meteor heading towards the nearby forest. *KKKAAABBOOOOMMM* After the deafening boom, the couple went and checked on their little fillies, once they were able to calm them down, and get them back to sleep, they headed out to see the impact. About 30 minutes later, they heard screaming from, presumably, other ponies, which unnerved them. It wasn't until the screaming stopped, that they began to quicken their pace, but once they arrived, they were horrified by what they saw. There were bodies of mutilated ponies everywhere, adults and even fillies and colts. They were all dead, it looked like an animal attack. They searched around, hoping to find somepony still alive, but they didn't. They were about to leave, until they heard the faintest sound of crying, making them go back, they went towards the crying, and they froze at what they saw. A little filly, under the front leg of a mare with a pink coat, the filly was curled up, and crying. They approached her slowly Missus Pie began trying to calm her down. "Shh... don't worry little one, it'll be ok… don't worry you’re safe now," she said. The filly stopped crying for a moment, then looked at Missus Pie, with tears in her eyes, before speaking, "I- *sniff* I just want- *sniff* -my mommy," the filly said between sniffles. After hearing that, Missus Pie looked at the mare the filly was under. 'Poor dear this must have been her mother...' she thought sadly, then she made her decision. She went to talk to her husband about what she had planned, and, after some arguing, he relented so ever so slowly. They carefully got the filly out from underneath the pink mare, who kinda resembles, Pinkamena. Missus Pie shivered at the thought of this happening to her daughter. Once they got her out they noticed that she was asleep. "Poor thing, cried herself to sleep," mrs. pie said sadly. "It'll be ok dear, we'll take care of her as if she was family" Mister Pie said, trying to cheer his wife up. "True, but does she have a name?" She asked. Her husband sighed, "I don't know dear..." he was about to say something else but then he noticed something stuck in the fillies mane. "What's that?" He asked his wife. In confusion, she looked at the piece of paper in the filly’s mane and said, "I don't know hun, let's take a look, it could have some information on her." Her husband came up, gently took the folded paper out of her mane, and opened it, before he began to read: 'To whomever it may concern, if I am unable to take care of my little bumble of joy, then I ask- no I beg you, please take care of my daughter, please. All I want is for her to be happy, she already has her cutie mark, and her special talent is to make others happy. She's wanting to be a clown and make ponies smile... she's a good filly and her name is...Pinkiewise.' End of prologue
