Chapter 4
That night, Twilight casually trotted to Pinkies party up at sugarcube corner, her hooves still a little sore from putting on her footwear.
Flashback
"Okay Twilight," said Spike, brandishing a set of horsehoes in one hand, and some nails and a hamme in the other, "Are you ready?"
"Just get it over with, Spike," said Twilight, levitating a folded washcloth up to her mouth and biting down on it.
She was still quite concerned about what Pinkies blood might be doing to her, but she decided that for Pinkie's sake (and probably her own...) that she would try to put it out of her mind and enjoy the party. When she approached the locally famous candy store, she could see that the door was already open, so she just went inside. Once inside she found herself in an environment no one who knows Pinkie as well as she does, should be unfamiliar with. All around the place, ponies were dancing, playing charades (one pony was being a table), eating sweets, spiking the punch-bowl with hard cider, spiking the cider-bwol with whiskey, playing the knife game (If you lose, you get a bent knife), and playing everypony's favorite game, "Pin the Evidence on the Zebra." But what really caught her eye was the incredible, and ill-advised, size of the balloons. After a while, Pinkie came bouncing up to her.
"Hey Twilight!" Pinkie said, "I'm glad you could make it!"
"Thanks," said Twilight, "and Spike says hi."
"Too bad he couldn't make it," sighed Pinkie, "Do you think he'll be okay on his own?"
"I'm sure he'll be fine." answered Twilight.
Meanwhile, back at the library...
Alone in the tree, Spike was idly using the computer, when he clicked on something that caught his interest.
Spike squinted and looked at the screen, reading aloud, "Two Fillies, One Cupcake?"
After pondering over it, he simply shrugged and clicked.
Back at Sugarcube Corner...
"Well, come on in!" said Pinkie "we've still got plenty of cupcakes, and enough Super-Mega-Ultra-Deluxe sized Brayskins Robins to make a pony look like a hippo!"
"Thats, good to know..." Twilight self-consiously said, remembering how she woke up this morning.
"Ohh!" Shouted Pinkie, "I almost forgot! Some of the helium from the balloons over there in the corner are leaking. Think you could blow them back up real quick?"
"Oh, well certainly," said Twilight, happy to find something to distract her from any stress regarding Pinkie's blood.
"Super!" said Pinkie, before bouncing back into one of the larger rooms, "I'm gonna go get things ready! Be back for ya later!"
Pinkie saying "get thing ready," she felt a large lump in her throat growing from anxiety, and she didn't need pinkie sense for that. she approached the first balloon with extreme caution, and carefully used her telepathy to undo the knot at the end. Once that was done, and she felt a steady rush of air blowing on to her face, she started blowing air into it. After a few seconds, she sensed that the ballon was nearing it's recommended stress limit, when she felt somepony touch her shoulder saying, "excuse me?"
This caught Twilight off-guard, and caused her to loose her focus. Next thing she knew, she felt air and helium rushing into her lungs with greater force than a category-5 hurricane. In a matter of seconds, she looked almost like one of Pinkie's clones just before being summoned back to the cave. Once all the gas from the balloon was inside her, her lips were unable too keep hold of the empty balloon and it shot out. That instant, the air blasting out of her mouth went her all the way to the other end of the room, ending with a loud "BANG!!!" She was left sitting half conscious on the floor beside a cracked wall. When she shook the floating stars away from her head, she looked up to see the pony who had inadvertently caused this accident, who turned out to also be the stallion with whom she had been talking to earlier today.
"Oh my go- I mean... Celestia!" he said, "are you okay?"
"Yeah, I think so" said Twilight, In a high-pitched, and almost Pinkie-like voice that cause her to quickly cover her mouth with her hooves in suprise.
"O-kaaaaaaaay..." said the stallion confused, before taking on a more nervous expression, "Do you know where If there's a restroom anywhere in here? Or just anyplace that can be locked from the inside?"
"Yeah," said Twilight, still scared, "there should be one just down the hall to your left."
"Thanks," said the stallion, marinating in his own sweat, before he took off down the hall.
A few seconds later, from the other room, Twilight could hear Pinkie yelling "Hey Twilight! We're ready for you!"
Still shaken by what she had just experienced, she got up and tried to to what she could to make herself somewhat presentable. She then walked into the other room, preparing herself for anything. What she saw, was a room full of ponies, surrounding a makeshift stage that looked like it was put together by Miss Cherelie's remedial class, with Pinkie Pie standing in the center. It's what was perched above the stage that caught Twilight's eye, a giant banner reading "Blod Sistarz" in mis-drawn lettering with crude drawings of Twilight and Pinkie on the sides.
"There she is!" said Pinkie, "The pony of the hour! My new blood-sister, Twilight Sparkle!"
Pinkie then unveiled a remote control and pressed the big red button on it, activating the speaker system and making it play applause noises. After a few seconds of hesitation Twilight slowly made her way through the crowd of ponies and up to the stage next to Pinkie.
Pinkie immediatly put her arm around Twilight and said, "Tell the good ponies here your name!
"Uh," Twilight said confused, "Twilight Sparkle?"
"That's right!" Pinkie shouted, "and just recently, Twilight here has recently been through a rather painful accident." That was something Twilight did NOT want to be reminded of, especially now. "But that's okay!" Pinkie continued, "Because now Twilight and I share the same blood, which means we get to be best sisters-" What Pinkie said next, Twilight's brain processed in slow-motion, "foahr-ehv-our!"
"It makes me so happy," Pinkie continued, "it makes me just wanna sing!"
Twilight said to herself, "Oh, shi-" before being cut off by Pinkie's singing.
Hey, Blood-Sister
Sang to the tune of "Hey, Soul Sister" by Train
Hey, hey, hey!
Your massive brains,
drive away all of my
gloomy rains!
You know I'd never forget you,
And so I wen't and saved you
With my blood!
Your straight, striped mane,
Your leadership through every
Single quest or pain!
I knew that I was fated,
To become interrelated,
With my best bud!
Hey, Blood-Sister,
My new sister sister,
Wanna dance with me, sing with me,
The way you smile fills me with glee!
Hey, Blood-Sister,
I don't wanna miss
A single day with you,
Tonight!
Hey, hey, hey!
Just in time,
I'm so glad you have
A chance to be like me!
You made me so excited,
We'll always be united,
We can't deny!
I'm so obsessed,
With playing with my sis
With zero time for rest!
I believe in you,
Like the moon-god, like the sun-god,
And I'll always let you know whats on my mind!
Hey, Blood-Sister,
My new sister sister,
Wanna dance with me, sing with me,
The way you smile fills me with glee!
Hey, Blood-Sister,
I don't wanna miss
A single day with you,
Tonight!
They way you can read a book,
Watching you sleep's the only rest I need,
So Twiley, Let's both hug,
You're the only I understand,
You see, I can be myself now finally,
WIthout you staring strange at me,
I wan't the world to see you sing with me!
Hey, Blood-Sister,
My new sister sister,
Wanna dance with me, sing with me,
The way you smile fills me with glee!
Hey, Blood-Sister,
I don't wanna miss
A single day with you,
Tonight!
Hey, Blood-Sister,
I don't wanna miss
A single day with you,
Tonight!
Hey, hey, hey!
Tonight!
Hey, hey, hey!
Tonight!
(End of song)
Twilight snapped.
"Listen you little pink psychopath!" She screamed, "I am not your sister! I am nothing like you! I would never want to be ANYTHING like you! No one in Equestria would! Because you are a sugar-crazed mare-filly, who can't do a single thing right, has no inhibitions, can't comprehend even the most rudimentary concept of logic, and never says anything that even makes half --sense!"
Everyone fell silent and the only sound was the sound of Twilights heavy breathing. After staring at Twilight wide-eyed, a single tear fell from her eye.
Soon, her entire face started to quiver, with more tears coming down as she shakily muttered, "Bu-... I t- we-... i ju-............"
Meanwhile, in Canterlot...
Princess Luna was standing over her balcony, doing her nightly routine, when she heard a rather loud wailing sound coming from Ponyville.
"Great..." She said, "I get to listen to this all day..."
Back at Sugarcube Corner... Yet again...
After a few seconds of crying, Pinkie took off to her room at lightning speed, leaving a Pinkie-shaped hole in her door. As Twilight calmed down, she took on an expression of shock and immediately regretted saying what she just said. She then slowly turned her head to the audience, all of whom were staring at her with expressions of anger and disappointment. Not knowing what to say, she simply sank her head down in shame, and slowly made her way off the stage, through the crowd of disapproving ponies, and out the door. After she was out, everyone was quiet for about 10 seconds, before Snips broke the silence
"Best, Party, Ever!" He said, excitingly.
A few seconds afterwards, everypony heard a huge crashing sound coming from the hallway. They turned to see a horrifying, abnormally figured, and almost pony-sized timberwolf snarling menacingly at them all.
Everypony's screams of terror could be heard from outside Sugarcube corner, where Twilight was sadly walking back to her home, completely oblivious.
