//------------------------------// // BONUS 3: Pinkie Pie Part 2 // Story: TERMINAL5 // by Master Lyra //------------------------------// “Nope.” At once Pinkie Pie became enraged. He LIED to me?! About such a serious topic?! Pinkie had stopped crying, but her mane was still deflated and straight. But as soon as she heard the conversation on the other side of the door, it poofed back up, like it was angry itself.  I have to make a plan! That meanie creature thingy is going to come in again, or another one will. I have to keep up the act. I hate this part of my job. The lonely surgeon sighed as he pushed the double doors open. Well, it is the only part… but still… The man was greeted to an empty room. The table in the middle was void of any life and the bonds were gnarled open. He became confused as he looked around, but soon he face-palmed. God dammit… I went to the wrong room again! Stupid coffee break! It always gets me lost! I’ve got to learn the layout of this plac- He fell over with a soft thump. He saw three quad pedal figures above him before he blacked out. Pinkie Pie idly counted the tiles on the ceiling while waiting…. And waiting… She had been waiting for half an hour for a figure to walk through. It was extremely hard for her to keep up the sad act while she wasn’t actually sad. She was angry. She waited and waited… Finally, the door slowly creaked open an eighth of its full extent. The pink pony tensed, waiting for something to happen. Then a small metallic canister rolled in. It was roughly the same size as a small thermos. Pinkie soon became confused. What is that…? She got an answer when it opened and began releasing a cloud of green gas. Some ponies had said the mare was dim-witted or feather-brained. To a small extent it was true, but she was not dumb. As soon as the gas came out Pinkie Pie started trying to get out of her bonds and screamed. They wouldn’t budge, however, so she feebly gave up the one-way struggle. The gas built up to an enormous size and loomed over the pitiful pony. Pinkie took a deep breath and closed her eyes. It surrounded her as she held her breath. This is it. The end. There’s nothing I can do. Goodbye, Twilight. Goodbye, Fluttershy. Goodbye, Applejack. Goodbye, Rarity. Goodbye, Rainbow Dash. I’ll miss you wh- “PINKIE PIE” Surprised, Pinkie let out her breath. “Some…pony…help…” Inside her head she screamed this but it came out like a whisper. The final thing she registered before she became unconscious was rapid footsteps. Pinkie Pie’s consciousness came slowly at first, a slight trickle of awareness. It was like fog dissipating under the new morning’s sun. When she opened her eyes, she only saw three figures above her. Still not fully awake, she closed eyes her eyes again. Suddenly, her memories came back and hit her like a train. The creature… the lie… the act… the gas… Pinkie jumped up, no longer asleep. She looked at her surroundings. She was in a hallway that was dimly light a few light bulbs that lined it. It was painfully white and sterile, and looked like a hospital. It seemed empty, however. She then saw her friends. Twilight Sparkle looked worriedly at Pinkie Pie, Applejack idly twiddled her hooves, and Applejack was also looking bored. “TWILIGHT! APPLEJACK! APPLEJACK! IT’S SOOOOOOOO GOOD TO SEE YOU! THANKS FOR SAVING ME!” Twilight looked happy as she took in the bear hug, albeit still worried, Applejack looked confused and so did Applejack. “You’re welcome Pinkie, and it’s good to see you to but aren’t you a little confused about App-“ Twilight replied, but was cut off. “APPLEJACK AND APPLEJACK AND TWILIGHT! HOW’D YOU FIND ME? DID’JA USE YOUR MAGIC, TWILIGHT? THAT’D BE COOL, BEING ABLE TO USE MAGIC! IF I HAD MAGIC, I’D PROBABLY USE TO GIVE EVERYOE CUPCAKES! OR MAYBE I’D GIVE EVERYONE CAKE… OR MAYBE I’D GIVE EVERYONE CHIMI-“ “PINKIE!” The trio yelled to stop the rambling. Pinkie looked a little flustered but nonetheless happy. “Yes, everypony?” Twilight face-hooved. “Pinkie, did you notice how there are two-“ “OMIGOSH! TWO APPLEJACKS?!” Pinkie started shuddering as one of the Applejacks approached her. “It’s okay Pinkie! We were worried, so we came and helped ya! You looked to be in trouble!” Slowly, Pinkie pushed off Applejack’s hoof and walked backwards, into a wall. Her eyes were shrunk down into pinpricks, and they darted back and forth. The other Applejack joined the first one and loomed before the scared Pinkie Pie. They then said in an eerie unison: “Come on sugarcube… don’t be scared…” The pink pony screamed, jumped up, and sped off to the right in one second. Twilight sighed at the two dumbfounded Applejacks. “You had to say that, didn’t you…” A/N Wow, sorry for lateness on this one! Normally I’d put this in the comments, but I wanted to tell you the next part is an alternate version of this chapter. It was the original, but I didn’t like it. Enjoy! Pinkie Pie didn’t care that they put her in a scary room. Pinkie didn’t care how the creatures loomed over her with sharp tools and disturbing grins. She had killed somepony. She had ended somepony’s life. The creature in a white suit stood over her menacingly with a saw-blade. “This will hurt, you know,” he said to the pink pony. “I don’t care anymore…” she replied, now lying on her back to let the man cut her belly. He smiled, and started cutting. Then, he lurched forward and banged his head on the table and fell over with a thwack. Pinkie then saw her friends, or rather two of her one friend. “Pinkie! You weren’t even resistin’!” Pinkie Pie instantly turned sour. She turned away and humphed. “Pinkie, we need to move, now!” Pinkie decided to follow and they ran out of the room. A/N There you have it folks! That’s what would have happened, sort of. It would have been a little different, but that’s the main idea. Remember to rate/comment/subscribe!
