Two Sides of The Same Coin

“Get off me!” Pinkamena screamed while pushing Pinkie off her. “I don’t need your help or your sympathy, and I’m not some pathetic mare like you!” Pinkamena continued to shout at her doppelganger with tears falling down her face. Pinkie sat still just taking the abuse.

She looked up at Pinkamena “What... exactly is wrong with you?” Pinkie asked. The sadistic mare froze when she heard the question. She began to laugh wildly, and pushed her face against Pinkies. “Every Night I feel imprisoned inside of my mind!  MY MIND IS SLOWLY BREAKING DOWN TO THE POINT OF NO RETURN!” Pinkamena screeched in a demonic voice.

Pinkie sat still, her eyes focused on her old friend. Pinkamena moved away from her, and sat down not looking at Pinkie. “Take a good look at me Pinkie... Do you even recognize me anymore?” Pinkamena whispered the question. “I’m only the creature you made me, I wouldn’t even call myself a pony anymore.” Pinkie walked up behind the sobbing mare, and placed her hoof on her shoulder.

“I can’t recognize you... But that doesn’t mean I don’t want to know you.” Pinkie said with a smile, and trying wipe away her own tears. Pinkamena looked over her shoulder to see Pinkie. “But don’t you know who you are? You are Pinkie Pie, just like me.” Pinkie said answering her own question.

“You are more than the choices you’ve made, we can put all this behind us; You are more than the sum of your past mistakes, and you may be broken, but all broken things can be repaired.” Pinkie Pie said while grinning at Pinkamena. Her own eyes felt like life had been returned to them.

“Pinkie... I honestly have no idea how you do it. I mean no matter what you always get back up, and just laugh.” Pinkamena said. “I guess I’m just lucky, and don't let life get me down because I have amazing friends, and I want you to be a part of those friends,” Pinkie said.

“I accept you, and love you for who are you.” Pinkamena’s lips slightly smiled when she heard the last words. “ Pinkamena turned round and embraced the her other half. “Promise me... Promise me that you won’t forget me!” Pinkamena said. “I promise to always love you, and spend time with you. I will never leave your side again.” Pinkie whispered.

“Okay... I believe you... but can you please let me do one more thing? I want to apologise to Twilight. I never really wanted to hurt her, I only wanted to make you feel how I felt.” Pinkamena said. “It’s alright... I understand.” Pinkie said in an almost motherly tone.

********

Pinkamena lifted her eyes lids, and it appeared she was still in Twilight’s room. The knife sitting in front of her, she picked it up, and stood up off the floor. She turned to face the unicorn who was still tied up. Twilight noticed her getting back up, and began to scream.

Pinkamena approached the bed with malice in her eyes. Walking in an almost ladylike manner, she dropped the knife beside the bed. Seeing the knife drop caused Twilight to stop screaming; Pinkamena jumped back onto the bed, and sat beside Twilight who was still hovering just above the bed.

“What are you doing?” Twilight asked eyeing her with suspicion. “You know Twilight... Pinkie is such a forgiving fool.” Pinkamena said her voice dripping with contempt. Pinkamena in one swift motion wrapped her hoof around Twilight’s throat, and pulled back; suffocating the unicorn.

‘NO LET HER GO PLEASE! I’M BEGGING YOU!'

Pinkamena continued, ignoring the voice in her head. She was smiling as she heard the mare fight for her life. “I heard screaming ,and came as fast as I could!" Said an exhausted voice just entering the room. Pinkamena looked for the source of the noise, not letting go of Twilight.

“Well if it isn’t my little Dashie...” Pinkamena said while staring the cyan pony. Rainbow Dash could see Pinkamena choking Twilight, and flew towards her. She pulled Pinkamena off her, and they both fell to the floor. Twilight gasping for air in the background; The sadistic pony was furious to hear the unicorn breathe.

Pinkamena got up faster than Dash, and ran for the window. “Wait!” Shouted Rainbow Dash. Pinkamena didn’t even bother opening it she just dove through it; leaving the glass to cause slices in her face. She knew Dash wouldn’t follow her, she would be to busy helping Twilight.

She began to run towards the everfree forest.

‘I can’t believe I got interrupted again! I swear I’m gonna kill one of them. I have to at least get one!’

She arrived outside the forest, and looked into the entrance. ‘I gotta admit... even this place gives me the creeps’ She could see the plants, and trees moving by themselves, odd little shadows darting through the bushes. ‘Well I don’t exactly have anywhere else to go.’

She ran into the everfree forest, trying to avoid wild branches, and other unnameable objects. She ran so far into it that she began to lose vision; the darkness was too thick, and the moon wasn’t helping. She decided to walk it from here.

She kept walking trying her best to see until she came across something she never expected to see. It looked like an abandoned campsite, there was two tents, a campfire, and what looked like some food that was still eatable. She searched around the camp, and found some flint and stone.
She approached the campfire, it still had some logs in it. She hit the flint and stone together for some time, and eventually the logs caught fire; the flames shot up illuminating the site. ‘At least I know I can survive for sometime now.”

‘Why did you do that? I thought you were being sincere!’

‘Pinkie... You should’ve known. Although I have to admit you’re the most easiest pony to deceive ever. Now you know a little of how I felt when you left me.’

Pinkamena walked into one of the tents, it was a bit battered and some holes in it, but still usable. She laid down on the floor, and closed her eyes ready to get some sleep; the last thing she heard were crying noises in her head.
