Did I blank out? What’s happening? Where am I? I see Pinkie Pie in front of me, although with her mane being smooth and some color loss. I don’t understand. “Hi Twilight, my love, we’re going to be here forever, where we can love each other with nopony getting in our way.” What?! When did this happen?
“Pinkie? What’s going on? You’re creeping me out.” I said, but she gives me a creepy smile.
“That’s Pinkamena to you, but you can call me Cutie Pie, Pink, Sweetheart, your girlfriend, and so many other names I approve of.”
“Pinkie, this isn’t funny!” That didn’t seem to do anything to her smile.
“Have a sense of humor Twily. Laugher is good for the soul.”
“Can we do this in a moment? I need to see where we are because I’ve never been here before.”
“Okay, I’ll always be here for you.” Deep breaths, where are we? Why are the windows grated up? Looks like Manehattan in the distance. Are we in a tower on the outskirts of the city?
“Pinkie, where are we exactly?”
“I arranged this to be our new home, together forever and ever. I can’t have you all to myself if I’m with the Cakes, so I got us this spot. Isn’t the view pretty?”
“Yes, the sunset looks pretty.” Keep your cool Twilight.
“Glad you like it. I’ll do anything for you.”
“How did I get here? My memory is drawing a blank. We dealt with the Changelings at my brother’s wedding and suddenly, I wake up here.”
“I drugged you and kidnapped you to bring you here.” That’s terrifying straight forward.
“Pinkie, you can’t just go doing that to ponies!” Now she looks more upset, oh no, what is happening?
“Twilight! I did this for us, can you not be grateful?!”
“I never asked for this.”
“I hope you will come to realize in time just how much of a good thing we have going now. Here, we can kiss as much as we want, have sex as much as we want. Nopony to be here to judge us or tell us what to do.”
“What’s gotten into you?!” This was never funny.
“Love, my dear Twilight.”
“This isn’t love, this is madness!”
“Madness? This! Is! Love!” She then pulls out a knife. Why is this happening?!
“Woah Pinkie, please put the knife away, this is getting way out of hoof.”
“Tell me you love me, Twilight!” I can hardly believe this. What happened to Pinkie? If this is a prank, it’s gone way, way too far. This feels too real to be a nightmare. Oh Celestia, what do I do? I need to defuse this situation quickly in case she’s serious about stabbing me. I can just use my magic. Why can’t I feel the magic in my horn? “Did you really think it would be that easy Twilight? I know with your magic you can just easily teleport away, so I made sure to put a magic binding ring on your horn.” No, no, no! Now I’m forced to use my wits. I’m this close to panicking.
“I’m sorry Pinkie, this just happened so fast, can we start over?”
“Start over in our relationship before we became marefriends?”
“No, not that. I’m talking about pulling out the knife. There’s no need to get violent.” After several seconds, Pinkie puts her knife into her flat mane.
“You’re right Twilight, I overreacted.” She then smiles brightly as if nothing happened. “How about I bake us some delicious cupcakes?”
“That’ll be wonderful. If you don’t mind, while you bake, I want to look around.”
“That’s fine my Twily. Closed doors are closed for a reason, don’t want to ruin the surprises now do we?” Finally, she’s not staring at me. I couldn’t get through these windows, although from how high up we are, that would probably be a terrible idea if they weren’t grated up. Out of everything that’s wide opened, there’s a bedroom with a double sized bed, probably with Pinkie expecting us to sleep together in. There’s a bathroom, the kitchen she’s currently in, a living room, and a library. She was at least considerate, although I would need time to figure out which books are kept here.
“Cupcakes are ready, come join me Twilight,” Pinkie announced. That was fast, five minutes? I would know better than to question her behaviors, but in this life-or-death situation I should. I better get over to the kitchen before she gets mad again. Please don’t let these be made from something you normally wouldn’t put in a cupcake. They smell fresh enough. Purple and pink frosting on top. I’ll take a bite. Hey, these taste pretty good!
“Wow Pinkie, how did you know my favorite flavor?”
“Silly Twily, I know everything.” She replied like that was the most casual thing ever. If she truly loves me, she wouldn’t try to poison me, would she? But then she pulled out a knife and seemed deadly serious about stabbing me. I saw three closed doors. The rest of the rooms have door frames but no doors including the bathroom. Not that ponies are usually shy about being seen naked, but we don’t like to watch each other pee.
“Pinkie, how come there’s no doors to these rooms?”
“So I can watch you, forever.” I must get out of here, but how? This is not a new realization for me, but the longer I stay here, the more I’m afraid for my life. I don’t understand why Pinkie Pie is almost like a completely different pony. She did call herself Pinkamena, so maybe she’s like an evil twisted version of the Pinkie Pie I know. That must be it or Pinkie has a dark side that she hidden well enough till now. Either way doesn’t quite help me right now. “While we eat, let’s plan something else for us to do.”
“Sure, I’ll need a moment to figure this out.”
“Sure, no hurry.” I’m too terrified to come up with something. I’ll just keep eating. We say nothing for minutes while eating. “Twilight, are you ignoring me?”
“No, not at all, I’m just thinking is all.”
“Oki Doki. I don’t want to lose you.” Is she really going to freak out if I don’t talk to her for a few minutes? She says she doesn’t want to lose me, but I’m sure murder will do just that. I can hardly eat the rest of the cupcakes. “You’re struggling to eat, you do like my cooking, right?”
“Yeah, I do, but I’m getting full.” Will she buy the lie?
“Okay, we’ll save the rest for later so nothing goes to waste.” She then goes over to wrap up the rest of my cupcakes. “Let’s do something else my Twily.”
“Sure. When did you fall in love with me?” I need to buy some time.
“Sometime after our first meeting. When you first came to Ponyville, I knew something was special about us, that’s why I ran away. And now I’m no longer afraid to confess my feelings for you.”
“Pinkie, how can you even be sure I’m into mares?”
“What?!” She then looks upset, oh no. “Come on Twily, I saw how friendly you were with us. The looks you give us. I’m sure you’re not into stallions.”
“I’m not, but I could be asexual, not into mares either.” She then pulls out her knife again.
“Don’t lie to me! What are you, homophobic? Tell me you love me back!”
“No, I’m fine with mares being with mares and stallions being with stallions. And you’re right, I am into mares.” I’m not lying about that, but I am not into Pinkie, especially this version of her.
“Then love me back!” So demanding.
“I... I... do.” She then forcefully kissed me on the lips. It is a really aggressive kiss and after several seconds, she pulls away. My poor heart.
“Thanks for that Twily, you had me really worried there. If I can’t have you, nopony can.” I’m breathing so heavily, I, I can hardly take this much more.
“Can we rest for the night? Look, the sun is nearly down now.”
“That’s kind of early, but since this is the first time we’ll sleep together, let’s not delay any longer. Follow me.” This doesn’t feel safe at all, I might get stabbed in my sleep. I could die when I’m not aware! Okay Twilight, you have a plan, it’s probably not the greatest one but it should work. I need to try to sneak out once Pinkie falls asleep. But how long can that take? She might stay up for hours while I fall asleep before she does.
“Good night my Twily,” Pinkie cooed. We’re in bed and she seems to insist we make shoulder contact. Back when Pinkie was friendly, she didn’t understand personal space, but this is even worse. I’m far too scared to sleep right now. She seems to keep the knife in her mane, but for all I know her mane is a pocket storage dimension.
How long has it been? Ten minutes, half an hour, two hours? I’m so scared I can hardly keep track of time. Pinkie is snoring. Relax Twilight, easy now, she thankfully doesn’t have a grip on me, but our shoulders are no longer touching. She’s still sleeping, so far so good. I see the exit door. Oh right, my magic doesn’t work with this ring on. I should go take care of that first. I go into the bathroom to use the mirror. I can’t get it off. I mustn’t struggle too much or I’ll make enough noise to wake her up. I’ll just open the exit door with my hooves. I try to open it and it isn’t budging. Do I hear movement?
“Twilight!” I hear Pinkie say as she’s suddenly runs from the bed up in front of me in like a second. “Where do you think you’re going?! Trying to leave me?!”
“I need a breath of fresh air.”
“You, you! You don’t love me! Now I realize the truth.” Out of her mane, her knife is back. “Die, die, die!” I try to push her. “Your unicorn hoof strength can’t compare to my earth pony endurance.” I turn around and run as... my back! So much pain, I can feel my blood leaving, I turn around to see the terrifying grin she has as she stabs me and then she goes for between my eyes...
