Look Right Through Me

Look Right Through Me

It wasn’t too long ago, when the happy go lucky Pinkie party pony relieved her true feelings, something I never thought she would ever do, I never really thought much about Pinkie's feelings much, which, I know; really makes me sound like a jerk.
One day, Pinkie invited me to Sugercube Corner; she wanted to have a “Super-fun-extraordinary party.” The strange thing was, no pony else seemed to know about the party, it was just me. But I still went, even though I really wasn’t sure why.
I got there at around 4:00 on a Tuesday; Pinkie was waiting at the door for me.
“Oh, hey Dashie! Come on in!” Pinkie happily said, as she led me inside. What was weird was that they were no balloons, or streamers, or anything, just a tray with a bright Pink cake in it, I got to say, it looked pretty good.
“Hey Pinkie, uh why aren’t there any pa-“
“Here! Take a piece of cake!” Pinkie said, looking a little nervous and cutting me off in mid-sentence. I looked at Pinkie, who was holding a slice of cake; I took it and started eating it. It tasted awful, there was this bitter taste in it, I wanted to spit it out, but of course, that would be rude.
I managed to choke down some pieces of the cake, but after I did, I started getting light headed, I tried to speak but it would just come out as mumbles, I tried to walk out put I could only crawl. Before I knew it, I was on the ground staring at Pinkie who had a strange look on her face.

I woke up to the sound of scratching metal. I looked down; I was sitting on a chair with nothing around me but far away walls. I tried to get up but I couldn’t move, it was almost like every muscle in my body was frozen. I kept on trying to get up until I fell off the chair and was on the ground, I saw Pinkie off in the distance walk towards me.
“Whoops! Looks like you fell silly!” Pinkie happy said, as she trotted over to me, she then carefully grabbed me and put me back on the chair.
“Now, just stay there alright?” Pinkie said, in a more stern voice, not mad sounding, just a little stern.
“Pinkie, what’s going on..?” I asked, hoping to get a logical answer, but I was too late; she was gone.
I stayed put, I really didn’t want to fall over again and have her come back. I was nervous, what in Celestia was this? Some sort of sick joke? I tried to keep calm, but it was hard to try and keep calm when you’re in a chair, you can’t move, you’re in a strange room, which your friend put you in. But, I mean this was Pinkie we were talking about, Pinkie could never do anything like this… right?
I turned around, my jaw immediately dropped and I shook in fear when I saw Pinkie walk up to me holding scissors and a large knife in her hand.
This couldn’t be… it... it just couldn’t… I opened my mouth but no words came out, I was just in plain shock; my mind was racing. Pinkie continued to walk over to me, with a half-smile on her face.
“You’re going to love this.. D-Dashie… Y..You… A..Are..”
I looked at her. She was staring at me, then at the ground, then she immediately fell to her knees and started sobbing.
“Pinkie… What’s going on? W-Why are you crying…?” I asked, really wanting the get a decent answer out of her.
“I… I can’t do it!” Pinkie shouted.
“Do… do what?” I quietly asked, still fearing her, Pinkie then just softly grabbed me by my hoofs and said a phrase I’ll never forget.
“Rainbow, there comes a time In your life where you love somepony so much, that you just want to be with them… forever. When I was a young filly, I would constantly think about the life that I have been granted, a life where when you’re alone for a few minutes, feels like a lifetime, a life where there’s nothing out there for you. I realized something Rainbow, throughout my entire lifetime you are the pony that I never EVER feel alone with, not even for a second. You... are the pony that’s there for me. I wanted to keep you with me Rainbow, so you can always cheer me up and, make me smile. But… I just can’t do it, you’re just... You’re just too beautiful, and you need to leave.”
She looked deep in my eyes.
“Memories get forgotten. Like tears… In rain. But not with you Dash... Not with you.”
Pinkie looked like her heart was about to crack open, she closed her eyes and looked up at the old, dusty ceiling; she took the knife and threw it on the ground. She then slowly got up and went towards an old table, got a syringe and tossed it to me.
“Use this to unfreeze you.” She quietly said, looking away from me.
I took it, and jabbed it. Within 5 minutes, I stated moving again. I slowly got up and looked around.
“Pinkie, where’s the e-“
“Exit. Follow me.” Pinkie said, finishing my sentence. Pinkie led me Into a dark, narrow hallway with a single door at the end.
“Well, here you are.” Pinkie said
“Also.. I’m… I’m sorry.” Pinkie said with a sad expression on her face.
As I was looking at the bright outdoors, I couldn’t help to think about Pinkie, what she said, what she did; everything. I looked down, a part of me was saying ‘what are you doing?! Get out of here! She’s insane!’ But another part of me thought that maybe, just maybe Pinkie’s just a lost soul, confused in her own life and emotions, maybe I had just looked right through her. ‘What are you nuts?! Hello!? She’s insane!’
I didn’t care, I turned around.
“Uhm, Pinkie?” I worriedly asked.
“..Yes?” Pinkie asked in a half sad half worried tone.
“How about we spend the day together, you know uhm.. Get to know each other..?” I worriedly said
All of a sudden, Pinkie’s hair fluffed up.
“I.. Uhm.. I-I..” Pinkie stuttered, trying to say a sentence.
She then gave me a big hug.
“Thank you Rainbow Dash.” Pinkie whispered to my ear. You know, I was right.
Maybe it was time to get to know the real Pinkie Pie.
