It's hard NOT to laugh when Pinkie Pie is shoving her nose into your face, but I had to keep calm, as if things like this happen to me all the time. She's always so silly!
She just wouldn't go away... Now I know why everypony thinks she's so annoying! If only I can find some way to distract her so I can get out of here! Out of all the Ponies to bust me, Pinkie Pie's probably the worst. Not only did Dashie NOT manage get away from her, but Pinkie loves to chat. If she knows I exist here, then the entire town will know in a few minutes!
I tried to sink deeper into the hay, to hide from her deathly gaze... But Pinkie kept on moving her face closer to mine. I'm amazed she couldn't tell the difference between Dashie and me. I mean, I'm probably three times Dashie's size! I guess Pinkie Pie doesn't have the ability to notice minor, or important, details.
I tried the best to mimic my daughter's voice, and, amazingly enough, Pinkie Pie obviously couldn't tell the difference (I wasn't too surprised). She probably didn't notice anything, because her head is always filled with crazy ideas, which probably drown her common sense.
"Oh, hey Pinkie Pie... I'm kind of busy right now... Could you... could you please leave me alone?"
"WHAT?" squealed Pinkie Pie. "Busy slacking off in Big Mac's hay cart? Sounds like Dashie!"
"Um...Yeah? That's great..." said I, trying to talk with a high pitched voice.
Pinkie Pie smacked her forehead with her hoof. Don't know why. Probably because she's Pinkie Pie?
"Well...Since you're feeling better, promise you'll stop by Sugar Cube Corner today!!!" Said Pinkie Pie through her clenched jaw, still pressing her hoof against her forehead.
Uh oh. The last thing I want to do is get Dashie into trouble! You all probably know what happens when somepony breaks a pinkie promise, right? I looked around, trying to look for a way out of this awkward situation. I was just in time to notice twilight sparkle, with spike on her back, standing in front of the book stall on the other side of the market square. Pinkie Pie followed my gaze and noticed her too.
"HEY! There's Twilight Sparkle! I can invite her to your get well party, since you're feeling all better and stuff!!!" screamed Pinkie Pie. She took one last look at me, and darted towards Twilight Sparkle.
What get well party?
The LAST THING I want to do is "meet" Twilight Sparkle! She'll probably see right through me... Not to mention, I do look a lot like Dashie's real father, apparently. I wanted to tell Pinkie Pie to leave Twilight Sparkle alone, but she already somehow managed to get to her already. That's Pinkie Pie for you.
I could see they were talking about something. By the worried look on Twilight's face, I guessed that they were talking about Dashie. I gotta get out of here, I'll probably get busted soon!
I stood up, and hopped down over the side of the carriage. It must be hard NOT to get noticed by everypony, since I'm probably the second most colorful pony in Ponyville. I tiptoed around the corner of the carriage and tapped Big Macintosh on the shoulder with my fore-hoof.
"Eeyup?"
"Look, Big Macintosh, thanks for all your help, but I really have to get going...Somewhere!"
"Eeyup!"
"Okay, um, tell your sister I said hi!"
"Eeyup."
Man, how does Applejack communicate with this guy? All he does is say "Eeyup" and "Nnope". Whatever, I have more important things to worry about right now. I actually think I'm slowly getting used to my new body, because it doesn't feel too heavy anymore! That's a big bonus, because I can move much faster now, and hopefully get away from Pinkie Pie...
I stood behind the cart for a few more seconds, then spotted a small cottage on the other side of the cobblestone road. Okay. I can do this. I can make it. All I have to do is make it to the cottage, and everything will be...Just fine...
I dashed out from behind the carriage, and noticed that Pinkie Pie wasn't with Twilight Sparkle anymore. Great. For all I know, she could be following me right now. The only thing I could think of at that time was: I have to get inside that cottage. It's like my brain stopped functioning properly! I galloped up to the front door, and started violently banging on it with my left fore-hoof.
"Hold on a minute!" Said a very "familiar voice. I'm sure I heard it on the show before, which didn't comfort me one bit.
I could feel sweat streaming down my face, and my entire body. I was nervous. I had never been this nervous before. I could feel my entire body shaking.
How would you feel if you had to stand on a doorstep in front of a heap-load of ponies, and you were trying to hide? It's hard to stay unnoticed when you're hair (or mane) is rainbow-colored!
The door creaked open, and standing there was nopony other than Cheerilee. Cherilee...I'm amazed I still remember her name...
I darted through the doorway like madman..
"Now! What's this all about? Who are you?" She screeched.
I bucked the door, so that it would close. I just stood there, panting, and soaked in my own sweat. I may have only sprinted a few meters, but I wasn't completely used to the overwhelming mass of my new body.
"I-I'm sorry, Cheerilee. -*pant*- I'm Just trying to hide from..-*pant*-..somepony!" I blurted out, gasping for air.
I must have shocked the living hell out of her, because I could see the fear building up in her eyes. She slowly backed away from me.
"H-how do you know m n-name?" She whispered. "W-what do want?"
I slowly picked lifted up my head to face her. Not only did I scare the crap out of her, but my stupid wings also found the perfect time to pop out.
She screeched and hopped behind a sofa standing on the carpet in the middle of the room.
-----------------------------------------------------------
There I was, towering over poor Cheerilee with my wings spread out across the entire room.
"W-wait! Don't be scared!" I said, trying to calm myself down.
She slowly crept out from behind the couch, and looked up into my eyes.
"You remind me a lot of Equestria's fastest pony, Rainbow Dash." She whispered, trying not to sound scared.
"Yes, We're...Related..." I said.
As soon as I finished my sentence, her eyes lit up with sudden joy.
"Really? Are you here to see her? I heard that she isn't feeling too well after they brought her back. Maybe you should go visit her now...? Somepony told me she's in the east tower of the Canterlot cast.e!" She said, with a bit of excitement in her voice.
"Actually, I'm on my way to Fluttershy's... Thanks for telling me where she is, though."
I don't want to see Dashie...yet... It feels like I'm going to die If i don't see her soon, but I don't think she's ready for the shock. Neither am I.
Author's note: Sorry if the chapter is so short. I'm getting ready for my exams, so I don't have much time to write!
