//------------------------------// // Origin of the Pie-er and Wonder Mare // Story: Earth 52 - Side Stories of Twilight Sparkle: Green lantern of Sector 2812 // by cornholio4 //------------------------------// On a cruise ship on the ocean that was being subjected to a terrible storm, because of the storm Fluttershy was nervously walking about the ship until she came across a bouncing Pinkie Pie. “Oh-hello-Fluttershy-I-didn’t-expect-you-to-be-on-this-boat-I-am-on-a-trip-to-see-if-I-can-find-Willy-Wonka’s-Chocolate-Factor-how-about-you?” Pinkie asked Fluttershy in one breath, bouncing up and down. “Well I was going to visit a forest..........” Fluttershy started only to start panicking when the storm was growing fiercer and the boat started rocking. Pinkie went out and got her luggage just as she fell off and landed on it. “Fluttershy, where are you?” Pinkie asked in her head looking around and seeing the boast was rocking back and forth until it sank. Hours later Pinkie washed up on what seemed to be a deserted island, she decided that since she would be there for a while she had better get her things out. She took out her pink hooded jacket and put it on with the hood up and pulling out a can of black paint painted an eye mask on her (thinking it would be neat.) “Oh no I may never see my friends or throw another party ever again.........hey maybe it won’t be so bad since a rescue ship is bound to come down and I can practice my pie throwing!” Pinkie said taking out some pies from seemingly nowhere. *Break* Several mares in togas were carrying Fluttershy’s unconscious body (Fluttershy had fainted before washing up on their side of the island) to a throne where sat a red furred and black maned Alicorn mare that was the size of Princess Celestia herself wearing a golden tiara with a red star. “Our Queen Hippoltya.” One of the mares said as they bowed before the mare “We found this outsider washed up on the island. Your orders?” Queen Hippoltya thought things over for a second before responding “see that she makes a recovery and see if she would want to join our sisterhood on the island!” The mares bowed before the queen before taking Fluttershy to get help from one of their healers. 5 Years later........... Pinkie Pie was walking around the forest of the island, having spent the last years wandering aimlessly and practicing her pie throwing. She soon came across a coliseum full of mares in the stand. She watched as Queen Hippoltya stood up from her throne and addressed the mares “sisters let the final of the tournament to decide our island’s champion, begin!” “Sisters? That’s one big family!!!” Pinkie thought as two mares in golden armour and holding swords walked into the stadium. One was a blue earth pony with an orange mane. The other was a yellow Pegasus with a pink mane that caught Pinkie’s eye. “Is that-Fluttershy?” Pinkie thought gasping to herself as Hippoltya called the fight to begin. Pinkie watched in amazement and wonder as she saw her old friend clash swords with the other mare. Soon after ten minutes the mares began to tire but Fluttershy managed to disarm the other mare and took her to the ground. As Fluttershy pointed her sword at the head of the mare, Fluttershy’s opponent screamed out “I Yield!!!!!” After Fluttershy was declared the winner the mares began cheering as Fluttershy helped her opponent up, “Are you okay Artemis?” Fluttershy asked worried for the injuries she may have put on her. Artemis laughed and replied “just fine, you were indeed the better warrior tonight!” “Yay Fluttershy! Can I throw you a victory party for her!” Pinkie said bouncing in the arena. Fluttershy looked shocked as the mares began looking at the intruder. “Pinkie?” Fluttershy asked shocked beyond belief “I have not seen you since the boat sank, five years ago! I guess you were also stranded on the island as well!” Queen Hippoltya trotted towards them ordering the mares to stand down and said “we must get ready for your victory ceremony Fluttershy and your friend will be allowed to watch!” *Break* An hour later Fluttershy was bowing before Hippoltya on her throne as the residents of the village were watching. “Sisters for five years Fluttershy have been with us and we have taught her our customs and trained in the ways of the Amazons, now Fluttershy has become our champion and proved she has truly become one of our own! Now to start the ceremony.” “I will now endow you with the strength, speed and wisdom of our gods.” Hippoltya as her horn glowed and a lightning bolt struck Fluttershy and even though she felt a little scared she then felt stronger and faster. Her horn then glowed again and Fluttershy was now wearing a blue and red singlet with a golden singlet, Hippoltya then continued “this singlet was once worn by me when I became warrior myself and let it serve you as a charm of luck!” A servant came and attacked a yellow Lasso to Fluttershy’s belt, Hippoltya then continued her speech “this Lasso is indestructible and forces a pony to speak only the truth.” A third time Hippoltya’s horn glowed and two silver bracelets attached themselves to Fluttershy’s hooves. Hippoltya then continued “these bracelets which were made from shards of the shield of Princess Celestia’s father, were gifts from Princess Celestia herself when we met her and is so impenetrable it would take the combined powers of Celestia, Luna and Discord times by hundred to even put a dent into them!” Then Hippoltya’s horn glowed a final time and her tiara lifted itself off her head and placed itself onto Fluttershy’s head! “Presenting Fluttershy the Amazon’s champion and ambassador to the outside world!” Fluttershy faced and bowed before the cheering crowd. “Even as you return to the outside world never forget you will always be an Amazon!” Hippoltya told Fluttershy as she used her wings to fly up. “Come Pinkie, I think I can take us back to Equestria!” Fluttershy said as she took Pinkie by the up hooves and flew off the island to the waving of the Amazons. *Break* Three hours later they were just outside of Ponyville when they saw several stallions trying to rob a carriage. “I I think I can handle this!” Pinkie said making Fluttershy let go of her and she still had the black mask paint on her as well as wearing her pink hood. “Wait Pinkie -” Fluttershy started but was too late as Pinkie was throwing pies at the stallions, seemingly out of nowhere. “I am gonna get you!” the Stallions said as Fluttershy swooped down to them. “Let them go!” Fluttershy said before the stallions burst into laughter. “Is the circus in town........” one of the stallions said before he got knocked out by one punch from Fluttershy and soon the other criminal stallions were knocked out as Pinkie washed the eye mask off and took off her jacket bouncing to Ponyville. “Make sure to get to safety!” Fluttershy said before flying away so she could take of the Amazon Regalia in secret. *Break* “Hiya Mr and Mrs Cake!” Pinkie said bouncing into Sugarcube corner to see her old landlords drinking coffee at a table. “Hiya Pinkie....”Mr Cake said before, he and his wife spat out their coffee staring at Pinkie in shock. Soon Pinkie was engulfed in a hug as Mrs Cake said “we missed you so much Pinkie and we were so worried when we heard your boat sank!” Pinkie then joined in the hug before going up to her old room which was kept exactly as she left it. *break* Fluttershy entered her old cottage and seeing that her old animals were still there, taken care of by volunteers. After putting away her regalia she shared a hug with her old animal friends including Angel Bunny. *Break* The next morning Pinkie barged into Fluttershy’s cottage and showed her the newspaper. Fluttershy took a hold of it. It told of the foiled robbery and it dubbed the super strong Pegasus “Wonder Mare” and the pie thrower “the Pink Pie-er”. “We could become superheroes, like that mare that dressed like a bat that somepony told me about yesterday!” Pinkie said excitedly. “I don’t know Pinkie.......” Fluttershy responded before interrupting. “Come on Fluttershy the Amazons sent you to be their champion, do you want to let your sisters down?” Pinkie pleaded and at this Fluttershy looked serious. “I’m in!”
