//------------------------------// // Pinkie's Problem // Story: Mama Pinkie Pie // by Sparkle Dust //------------------------------// Pinkie Pie woke up to a parade. Oh,no! I'm going to miss the parade! Pinkie thought. "...Where's Pinkie Pie?" Princess Celestia asked. Oh,great! Celestia's here,too! Pinkie Pie panicked. She stepped out of Sugar Cube Corner,and all her friends and Princess Celestia crowded her. "Pinkie Pie!Where were you?!"Rainbow Dash asked. Pinkie Pie put a cheery face on and began to sing: Well.....Do you really want to know what I was doing? Do you even care? 'Cause it seems to me that you really,really don't! You're just using me for the day! You'll abandon me soon enough What I want to do,is just stay in my bed. Because all I need is to get some rest but wait, no I can't! Everyone stared at Pinkie,looking offended. "Geez, I just asked a question. I didn't need no musical." Rainbow Dash said. "Pinkie, I am disappointed. You are normally up early, and the parade is about to begin." Twilight shook her head. "I wish you could have gotten up early." Rarity said. "After all, I get up early to work on my mane." "And ah get up to pick apples to see if they're ready."Applejack put in. "I get up to knock out the clouds." Rainbow Dash flew up and knocked out a cloud for emphasis. "I bet you don't get up to feed a lot of hungry animals." Fluttershy was gentle. "Now,now. Don't pick on Pinkie just because she overslept. There must be a good explanation for this." Celestia and the others looked at her for an explanation. "Why do you think I slept in late? Maybe I wanted to sleep in a little later than usual! You can too!You wish that you don't have to get up so early,huh?! Wanna know what I wish for?! I wish that everyone were babies!Everyone in Equestria!" Everything went black.
