The next day was a Friday. Everyone would be talking about how they would spend their weekends. Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich already knew what they were going to do. Right now, they were in the gym/auditorium with Pinkie's other five friends. Just because they said that they couldn't help, doesn't mean that they weren't going to contribute to the party planning at all, and they knew that.
"I'll help with some of the caterin'. We have bunches of apples waitin' to be baked into delicious treats," Applejack said.
"I'll help with the decorations. Well, designing them, of course. But I have a question: why orange and purple?" Rarity asked, confused about their choice.
"We wanted a bold color scheme! It would be much more than just plain old traditional colors," Pinkie replied.
"Maybe I can rock out my sick guitar skills as a show," Rainbow said, playing on an air guitar.
"Are you sure, Rainbow? We already have Flash's band in mind," Pinkie said.
"Come on, Pinkie. With me and Sunset over here, you don't even need that stupid band. No offense, Flash," Rainbow said, looking towards the direction of Flash.
"None taken. My band's songs are getting worst each time we play anyway," Flash replied, crossing his arms.
"Well, I guess we've got three out of twenty and counting things done on our to-do list," Pinkie said, taking out two sheets of paper full of things her and Cheese needed to take care of.
"So what's next on our list, Pinks?" Cheese asked.
"Okay. Even though we have treats from Applejack, we still need more food. AND we need to figure out what activities everyone's gonna play. This is the last party of the year guys. We can't just dance. We also need to rent out a place for the party. Probably Vinyl's house, seeing that she literally has the BIGGEST BACKYARD EVER," Pinkie Pie said, imagining the yard that had a dance floor, a DJ station, room for refreshments and activities, and the small hot tub in the corner that she used occasionally to relax while listening to music.
"Umm, who's Vinyl?" Cheese asked, and Pinkie gasped.
"You seriously don't know who that is?! She is the best DJ in the school. Probably in all of CANTERLOT! She competed in so many DJ competitions, even beating the legendary Neon Lights once or twice! She is AMAZING!" Pinkie squealed as the others looked at her fangirling.
"OH! I know her! Shes the one who never takes off her headphones!" Cheese said.
"Yeah! And she's-"
"Can we move on?" Rainbow Dash interrupted, and they both looked at her.
"Oh! Right! Got off track there..um..so we should also get Twilight! Maybe she's willing to come back from Equestria!" Pinkie said. Flash smiled at that idea. Maybe he could share the traditional kiss with her when the clock strikes twelve.
"I doubt that. She probably only comes when there's a crisis or something. Besides, maybe she's celebrating New Year's Eve with our counterparts," Fluttershy said, and Pinkie frowned, and so did Flash.
"You're right. She probably won't come. Oh well. Now all we have to do is make the decorations, actually cater the food, mail out the invitations, plan the festivities, get Rainbow and Sunset to practice their guitar routine, put up the decorations..." The list went on until Applejack stopped her.
"We get it, Pinkie. We have a lot to do and we can't waste a minute of it. But how are ya gonna have time to do all of this? With Thanksgiving and Christmas right around the corner, you'll be surrounded by family. And I don't think your family is the type that plans parties," Applejack said to her,"I believe with your two wacky minds combined you can do this, but I just think you need a bit more help than just us."
Pinkie and Cheese pondered on what Applejack said, with, of course, a crazy way of doing it. Breaking the fourth wall by walking on walls and not falling down, Cheese finally came up with a solution.
"I got it! Maybe if we get one more person who doesn't have anything to do, we can finish planning the party by at least two hours before it starts, making enough time for us to get ready to greet our classmates," Cheese said, standing on the ceiling. The rest of the confused student looked up with crazy looks on their faces.
"What the heck?!" Rainbow said, trying to figure out how in the world are they doing this.
"I..I have no words. This is crazier than the time Pinkie got sad because we weren't friends anymore," Rarity said.
"Don't bring back the memories! I can still see her slow encounter with madness," Fluttershy said, shaking in her chair.
The two got down from the wall and ventured on their quest to get another volunteer. The others looked back at them with the crazy looks still on their faces.
"And the crazy part about all of this is that they didn't even notice they were on a wall," Applejack said. Fluttershy still shook at the memory of Pinkamena, the mad version of Pinkie Pie.
"Calm down, Fluttershy. We all promised to keep Pinkie happy after that...scene. Trust me, you won't see her like that for a long time," Rainbow said, trying to comfort the trembling girl.
"Guys, I gotta go. Me and the band have to work on some more songs. This, is gonna be dreadful," Flash said, walking out of the auditorium.
"C'mon guys, let's get started," Applejack said, and the girls walked out of the auditorium as well, starting on their individual plans.
"Let's go, Fluttershy. I think they went that way," Rarity whispered to her still trembling friend.
"Alright," she replied.
