Ditzy was lost in her own thoughts. What was happening to her? Was she finaly going insane? Ditzy blinked and saw a pink hoof waving rythmically in front of her face and a high voice saying something.
"Hello, Equestria to Derpy!" Pinkie giggled and Ditzy snapped back into reality. Ditzy just stared at the pink earth pony blankly. Pinkie's carefree expression morphed into a look of legitimate concern.
"Derpy, are you ok? You don't look like you slept at all!" Pinkie said. Ditzy raised her head to look at Pinkie.
"No, no I didn't, actually I..." Ditzy started mumbling and suddenly she gasped and her pupils shrank in horror. Pinkie cocked her head, unaware of what had frightened the pegasus so much. Ditzy trembled, right behind Pinkie Pie was a deformed creature held together by stitches. It was going to murder Pinkamena Diane Pie. There was a horrible suction sound of the creature's blood and pus spilling out, and Ditzy shuddered. How was Pinkie not hearing this? The creature inched closer to the counter and Ditzy's pupils shrank even further. The creature was not coming for Pinkie. It was coming for her. Ditzy threw the stool she was sitting on to the ground and bolted for the door. A very surprised Pinkie leaned back.
"H-hey! DERPY!" Pinkie shouted at the sprinting mare. Ditzy ran for the center of Ponyville and nearly knocked Lyra down. Ditzy turned frantically to see if she was still being followed. She was. Ditzy sprinted towards the Everfree Forest and nearly ran into Fluttershy. Ditzy ran into the forest, much to Fluttershy's horror.
"Derpy, no! That's the Everfree Forest!" Fluttershy yelled as loud as she could (which was not very loud). Ditzy kept looking behind her and ran right into a tree. Ditzy looked up and was horrified to see a message carved on the tree. "Crooked mare" was carved into the tree and a tiny drop of sap bled onto the forest floor. Dditzy kept running.
"I'm not crooked I'm not crooked..." Ditzy mumbled as she ran. She skidded to a halt at the edge of a cliff. The creature edged closer. Ditzy prayed it would fall to pieces right then and there but it didn't. Ditzy was so, so dead. Or at least she thought she was. Ditzy heard a strange sound from the sky, and looked up to see a flying police box.
