Pinkie squealed as Applejack yanked her into the Everfree Forest.
"Ah! Wait! No! Help!" she screamed. Um....let's all hunt for a portal leading to another world in the Everfree Forest while things are trying to kill us and blow us up with our friends from the same world that the things that are trying to kill us are from party? she tried. She decided she liked it.
"Let's all hunt for a portal leading to another world in the Everfree Forest while things are trying to kill us and blow us up with our friends from the same world that the things that are trying to kill us are from party!!!!!!" she screamed, wriggling out of Applejack's grasp and bouncing around through the forest, startling the creatures that lived inside it. She sang and ran around in circles, repeating her statement over and over. Suddenly, she stopped as a question hit her. A feeling of understanding flowed through her.
She knew that this was the answer to life.
"Guys," Pinkie said, turning around to face everyone. They suddenly stopped, alarmed by her sudden change in tone. They glanced at each other, worried about what she was going to say. Pinkie drew in a sharp breath......
"DO YOU WANNA BUILD A SNOWMARE?" she screamed happily, running around, bouncing, her mane flying through the air.
Twilight and the rest of the element bearers just looked at each other in confusion, their bewilderment showing clearly on their faces.
Sky and his friends? They were just facehoofing. "How could she have seen the movie?" Jason kept asking his friends in a hushed tone, glancing worriedly at Pinkie. Ant shrugged. Jordan rolled his eyes.
"You don't know anything," complained Sky in in a whiny but amused tone to show that he wasn't serious.
"I do to! Just..." Ant began, but was quickly cut off by Bodil.
"Just random, useless crap that we will never, ever, ever need again in all of our days of life, death, and the beyond," Bodil said, shoving Ant in the shoulder, which earned him a quick punch in the head.
Pinkie was pretty sure that the fighting would have gone on for hours if Twilight hadn't stopped it.
"Let's just focus back on our original goal, okay?" she interrupted, glancing at the group of friends to make sure that the fight didn't start again. Pinkie watched, genuinely fascinated as the ignored her and continued fighting.
Oh wow, why are they fighting? I would never fight with my friends! Fighting isn't fun, and that's all want to have with my friends! But maybe fighting is fun to them, in which case I shouldn't criticize them, but seriously, who finds fighting fun? Not me! And I find almost everything fun! But not everything. My friends think I find too many things fun, but they don't find enough things fun. I mean, seriously, what isn't as fun as watching a flock of stampeding geese? All of that honking and quacking, and feathers flying everywhere...it's the funniest thing ever! Well, next to the time me and Rainbow pranked Spike. The look on his face! But I'm glad that we never saw that meany-mouth griffon ever again. She was such a grumpus lumpus! She was the biggest lump to ever grump! Oohhhh.....grumpus-lumpus, grumpus-lumpus, grumps-lumpus, grumpus lumpus... Hey, that's really fun to say! You know what else is fun to say? CHIMI-CHERY CHANGA!! CHIMI-CHERRY CHANGA!! CHIMI-CHERRY CHANGA!! CHIMI-CHERRY CHANGA!!!!! And me and Rarity got to pump a train-thingy all the way back to Ponyville! It was so fun, but for some reason Rarity didn't seem to like it. I wonder why.
"Snap out of it!" Someone snapped, interrupting Pinkie's happy thinking of chimi-cherry changas and fun things to say. Twilight glared at her, looking super-duper-katrooper annoyed with her! Woah! She was so mad that you could see flames coming out of her ears! Well, not really, but a pony could dream, right?
Well, Pinkie certainly hit the nail on the head.
It was just like she had described: a nether portal-looking thingy with a buuuuuunch of mobs coming out of it, swarming the Ever-free Forest one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one by one...
Stop it, Bodil, he thought to himself, shaking his head to clear the thoughts that were running around in his brain like chickens on a sugar buzz (don't ask). Concentrate on some of the important questions.
Bodil watched and watched. Squids flowed out like water in a leaky barrel. Creepers hissed, looking at the spiders, who waved around their silk and looked around for something. The skeletons and zombies stayed in the shade, and just watched.
Well, actually, in order to have some important questions, you need to have some questions in the first place. Oh hey, I wonder how this portal got in the Everfree Forest in the first place? Did something spawn it? If so, who spawned it? Say, how do you spawn something in the first place? I mean, I know you can use spawn eggs and all, but how do the things form in the spawn eggs? I remember the time we used a spawn egg to spawn a wolf...he was so cute! And Adam named him Bob summmusumudkfjcjcdjfkjvjffjdkdkffjfjfjfjfjfjfjfjjfjggjfjdjcjdjdkdxkccjdkckckckckccjdjdsaow of ri....that was the cruelest name ever. But hey, Jordan took him in at least...say, what does he do with all of those animals? Does he eat them in puppy liver and bunny rabbit soufflé? Oh my gosh, eeewww, Bodil, time to think of something else....Oh hey, lookie, a butterfly!.....Did I just get possessed by Pinkie Pie or something?
Apparently so, because Pinkie was staring him straight in the eye, grinning ridiculously.
That pony, Bodil thought, shaking his head, is one heckuva something.
"Wow," Jason said, looking at the portal. "Pinkie, you are really freaking good at this."
Pinkie grinned. "I know, right?" she sang, bouncing around and saying, "Chimi-cherry-changa, chimi-cherry-changa..."
Well, okay then.
"What are we waiting for?" exclaimed Rainbowdash, flapping her wings madly and spinning around in a circle. "LET'S GET RID OF THAT THING!!" She shot into the air and charged towards the portal.
"WAITDON'TDOIT!!" Ant yelled, and shot into the air after her.
For once, his aerial clumsiness helped him. Ant slammed right into Rainbowdash, knocking her out of the air and sending them both spinning back to the ground.
"HEY! WHAT THE HAY!" cried Rainbowdash, shaking Ant off of her and slamming into the portal.
Like, right into.
There was a strange barrier surrounding the portal, only exposing itself when Rainbow slammed into it. Energy crackled in the air, and Bodil briefly smelled ozone. Then, Rainbow was thrown back towards the rest of the group off friends and skidded on the ground.
"Ow," Rainbow gasped and slowly got to her hooves. "Not cool."
"I was trying to warn you," Ant said, his voice dripping with exasperation. "I was trying to say that there was a barrier, but fluff head didn't listen."
Before the quarrel could escalate to a full blown fight, Rarity interrupted. "Darling, how did you know there was a barrier in the first place?" she questioned, poking Ant in the flank.
Ant glanced at her. "There's a small shimmering in the air where the barrier is. See?" he said, pointing towards it.
"Oh." Rarity adjusted herself so she looked proud and tall, and replied in a snide voice, "I knew that."
"Obviously," snickered Ty, nudging Sky, who looked confused but still managed to utter, "Um...ha ha?"
Facehoof. And Bodil wasn't sure if it was at Sky or Rarity.
"Well, we aren't going to get anywhere by sitting here and arguing with each other. The fact remains hat the portal still stands and we can't breach it. Maybe I should ask Princess Celestia about what to do..." Twilight mused, tapping her hoof thoughtfully on her chin.
"Princess Celestia?" echoed Jordan, looking confused.
"Princess Celestia. I'm going to write her a letter on what to do about the portal, and if we can go to Canterlot about it....Oh, you too," she added, pointing to Bodil and his friends. "You guys are the only ones that know how to fight them..." Twilight muttered to herself as she trotted slowly back to Ponyville.
"Um, Princess Celestia? Hello? Has anyone heard me?" repeated Jordan, looking annoyed.
"Come on," Twilight said, doubling back. "I'll explain on the way."
