Dear Diary,
Today is a very special day for me! It's Gummy's 4th birthday party! My hair was everywhere when I realized this! Oh speaking of realizing, I did not realize last time when Rainbow Dash dropped a teeny tiny piece of paper onto my hair when she was flying, nor when Twilight touched me that one bit when we were standing in a crowd waiting for the Summer Sun Celebration, or or... Oh there are the guests! I can name you all of them, other than my best friends, there is Lyra Heartstrings, Sweetie Drops, but I call her Bon Bon, Fancypants, DJ PON3, or Vinyl Scratch, Ms. Cheerilee, and and... Oh I have to welcome them, see you later!

Dear Diary,
WHOO! GUMMY BLEW HIS CANDLES OUT! WE ARE SOOOOO HAPPY FOR HIM! Even if the alligator will never have teeth, he is still my very special somealligator! Awww, how cute he is still! Even though he likes to bite everyone and everything and everywhere and everytime, oh wait that's not a word, whatever. Anyways, ponies still adore him for being harmless and loving, he just wants to show his devotion on us. Man, I wish Gilda was here, so she can not be a meanie like last time and actually make some friends. I did send her an invitation though, guess she is still mad at us after 3 years since. Oh well, I still have my friends here, this party will be a blast! Or if Cheese Sandwich was here, we can throw an even larger party, but then again Gummy does not need that, do you my greeny squishy Gummy wubby?
fjaedsigsfjhkfgh
See? Gummy said no, and since it's his birthday party, he gets all the wishes! Gotta go! Rainbow Dash is calling me to watch her performing her awesome stunt through Gummy's cake! Oh wait, silly me, why did I write the same heading twice?

Dear Diary,
Man, I loved that party last night! It was a total blast! Twilight used her amazing magic to perform a show (far better than Trixie's, I wonder where she is now?) with balloons, Applejack made a game called Dodge Apples, where you have to eliminate others by throwing apples at them in order to win the game, Fluttershy afterwards sang us a song of love and serenity, it was truly beautiful and calming. Rarity made us the best party clothes I've ever seen! Rainbow Dash flew and crashed all over the place because of her awesome stunt, good thing the pins for Gummy to pin his tail were already pinned to the wall, or else Rainbow will get hurt, and if she gets hurt she will be sent to the hospital, and if she's at the hospital she will lose her flying time, and if she loses her flying time she will lose practice time, and if she loses her practice time she will have less chance of becoming a Wonderbolt, and if she has less chance of becoming a Wonderbolt she will have less chance of having her dream, and if she has less chance of having her dream she will be DEVASTATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And if she becomes devastated she will...
Sorry about that, Mrs. Cake told me to take care of Pound Cake for awhile, even though still a bit challenging, he has grown to be more mature and less crazy, because he doesn't fly all over the place, I just love hugging him and will so forever! Now I have a planned tea party with Fluttershy tomorrow, so I can't act like what I did yesterday!

May 25th
Dear Diary,
The tea party was great! Animals were tugging me everywhere to enjoy our sweet times in rocky terrains, river banks, grass hills, Fluttershy only joined half of those adventures though, she was a bit nervous of the places we been to, especially that waterfall, where we were standing at the edge of the cliff. Some tea party huh? We did manage to have a quiet sip with a great big group huddled up together, it felt reeeeelaxing! Especially with Fluttershy, her hugs are soothing!
Anyways, afterwards Fluttershy told me that some of her chickens and Angel... Were missing... Which really freaked me out, for neither of us can find it anywhere in her cottage or in the Everfree forest, even the rest of the friends came over to help us out, we searched everywhere, through where I had explored with my animal friends, but they simply weren't there! How's that even possible? Fluttershy had half of the group, and I brought along the rest of the group, I kept an eye on all of them, it just doesn't make sense!
... Oh wait Twilight sensed them in a giant cave with her magic, my sweat finally stopped their flow, I hugged Fluttershy tightly as I could, but she still is worried because of that cave, which she explained was the home of the Ursa family...
After a looooonnng search, Twilight found them again with her magic... D... Dead...?

May 28th,
Dear Diary,
As you can see, I didn't write in this for three days, which was a long time. Also I decided to save more space for my journal, therefore I did not indent twice for my heading anymore. Sorry about that hee hee!
After the horrendous discovery, Fluttershy was heartbroken, she was lost in the great trees, we all pitied her when she cried around their corpses, I cried when she cried. We walked home without sharing a single word, for our shy and quiet friend. Rarity nudged Fluttershy on her cheek and I did the same but on her nose, even when she sucked her tears away, she can never hide her grief, for we all know how important losing a friend can be... *SNIFF SNIFF* I'm just so sad, I don't think throwing a party to change our mood is the right thing to do in this situation... Maybe I will call it a day and refresh tomorrow.
May 31st
Dear Diary,
I don't understand?! Why is my whole body itching and going all over the place! It somewhat feels like my Pinkie Sense, but I never had this before! It shouldn't be so bad right?! Though it felt a bit painful, and... Just want to make me cry... It's early in the morning, I just want to tell you this new experience, maybe it can cheer me up later with a strawberry shortcake!
~~~~~~
June 3rd
Dear Diary,
These few days had been quite a shock, not only the animals "were" missing, Fluttershy too! We hope that she is not hurt and... "caked"... Like her animal friends! We sought for her for days! Oh why does it have to be like this?

June 6th
Dear Diary,
While I was making my new recipe, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle were knocking on my door and hurrying me to see Rainbow Dash, I wonder what surprises does she have for this time, throwing a party for a party pony is quite ironic don't you think? I can't wait to expect my best friend's gift!
Only... She was in the hospital bed... Unconscious? What? How's that possible? How can Dashie just injure herself like that?! She's tough, strong, fast, agile, and most of all: AWESOME!.... Where can possibly go wrong?
The nurse told us... Oh right, the visitors: Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Twilight (SHE'S A PRINCESS NOW! Oh wait, that's a long time ago!), Rainbow Dash... Wait, she's the patient, and HOLD ON! Why did I write my own name down! Silly me! I'm me, me is Pinkie! Anyways, then there is Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and finally Scootaloo, lying next to her idol Dashie, crying and sobbing. It just ticks me to cry along with them too! If Fluttershy was here, she would've hugged the fillies together and cry too... Sigh...
The nurse told us that Rainbow Dash had a severe head injury just around these days. Then it hit me, that Dash did not perform her new stunt well last time on Gummy's 4th birthday party, and rammed all over the place. OH NO! WHAT HAVE I DONE!?
Twilight and others were trying to calm me down, but I know there is no hay way possible! They even wanted to do my Pinkie Promise, but I knew that would not and never work in this case, BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!....... Sorry, I just can't cheer up these days, too many things happening. I appreciated their way trying to cheer me up, but deep down in their cream there is something that can cause them a stomachache. They can't hide that forever and ever, am I right? Rainbow Dash will be fine... I hope, because the doctor said that she must still lie here for some months, and even then he was not sure whether Dashie can recover. Suddenly, Rainbow Dash made a faint smile, indicating that she will be alive and well, while ruffling Scootaloo's purple mane. Even if the reassurance, I'm already confused by all of this: Why are all this happening? Why my friends?!

Dear Diary
Again I have been getting the aching and itching, this time a bit more intense than ever. It has been acting like this for awhile, and I still have no clue on how to manage this problem. Nevertheless, the good news is that Rarity and I are going out together on Manehattan, to get some delicious goods while helping her on her fashion show! I'm soooooooooo excited! I'm always there to help my friends out and make them happy with a smile! We were in her Boutique and chatting about how the performance will go, and she secretly showed me her finest designs I've never seen out of all her dresses made for me, the smooth silk clothing combined with the rarest, brightest and most colorful gems, the artwork is "simply divine" like she said as each and every clothing had a different mood and feelings. Ooooooh I can't wait to see her award!
As we stepped outside, entered the station and ABOUT to step into the train, a mail Pegasus saw me, and gave me a mail. It was from my most beloved sister Maud, what's bothering on her mind, she got rocks to enjoy. Anyways, I opened the envelope, and inside it just said:
Dear sister,
Please listen to me, you have to come back soon, our family needs a emergency conversation.
Love, your sister, Maud Pie
Weird, I never seen Maud actually so... Emotional with her words before, she would often just say it without any convincing tone. It was all too strange, and by the time I finished reading it, I jumped all over again, this thing has to stop! I do not want to predict anything, because it will always be something bad! It wasn't fair... However, after awhile on the train it was all good...
~~~~
June 14th
Dear Diary,
The train ride was beautiful, even though I'm still on the train. The trees, Canterlot, even Ponyville from miles away! Rarity though did not want me to be too loud, for all the other passengers needed some privacy and comfort, I swore to her (no need for Pinkie Promise! I can do this on my own!) that I will shhhhh. The train had fine and divine food, neither Rarity nor I wanted to eat them even though we paid for it, the picture was just looking "delicious". Later on in the afternoon, we were crossing a bridge, I decided to throw a whole big party for the passengers wanted to cheer up a bit, even my best friend herself was ready to join. Of course not the cake diving part! This was the best train ride ever!
Until... *Sniff*, NO I DO NOT WANT TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THIS! Bu... But... Th... There was a train accident, an... And the train ran off track... And fell off into a vast forest. Rarity was stuck in her seat belt... I tried to get her out and she tried using her magic... But it was useless, she instead levitated me out of the train, back onto the land, but she.. She... went down... All the way down... And there were sounds that I did not want to hear... I... I...
Rarity was one of the last bodies to be known after the crew searched for survivors... Nopony... Absolutely nopony survived through that... Her body was found badly burnt and all her clothes... Destroyed... Twilight and Applejack came together, cried with me, and we formed a group hug. Twilight and AJ suggested me to do the Pinkie Promise: that we will never break apart, for our friends are always there in our heart, no matter when, no matter where, and no matter what. Well, I actually took a deep breath, and began:
"Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye"
After that was done, we stayed at Twilight's castle, and talked, and played, and talked... For it was sweet... Yet so empty without the other three...

June 20th
Dear Diary,
I rode the train this time, to my old rock farm. Ahh, the smell of those rocks burnt into coals were memorable, and dull tedious. I wanted to see more of it, but then again, there is my family I have to trot to, I noticed Maud and Marble chatting together while Limestone was digging... For rocks as always like every other member of our family. I raced to call them, haven't seen my sisters for such a long time, the yummy fruits are squishing their juice inside me already, I just wanted a reunion...
That is, Marble does not notice me. I was quite puzzled, I tried getting her attention again, and then ran to Limestone, but neither of them seemed to pay the respect of their sis'. I was mixed with sad and angriness, wait is that even a word... You know what I mean! Anyways, even my dad Igneous Rock and mom Cloudy Quartz stepped out of the small run down house I used to live in. They saw me... But walked past me and talked to the other three. I drooped hard on the ground, nearly cracking it, how's this even possible? What have I done to them? Was it because of my absence? Did I not contribute to the family enough? I... I... But Maud told me today was the family emergency conversation!
Then I was pulled over, it was no other than Maud. She told me that all the itching I had over the past few weeks, were symptoms of an unavoidable curse... And she could do nothing about it, for the curse is already in effect. I don't know what she is up to, and I began to feel insecure, even though this happened to my birthday party last time, when I doubted all of my friends (and it got me PINKAMENA CRAZY!), and I learned my lesson then. This time it was different, Maud, the one mare who can hide her true colors under any circumstances, and was always hard as a Boulder, or simply hard as her pet, was shattered and broken this time. I can see it in her gleaming eyes, they are about to cry out the sadness. I hugged her, telling her that everything will be alright; and that she does not have to worry at all. She helplessly hugged back, as if she was retaliating my generous love... What does she mean by the curse...?

July 7th
Dear Diary,
I can't take this any longer, I've been aching madly since I saw Apple Bloom, I don't know if I'm going to lose her, but it was heavy and traumatic as when I was with Rarity. I don't know if Apple Bloom is truly my best friend like her, but she is the sister of my best friend, Applejack, and I do not want to lose her Blooming little sibling. Sweetie Belle was already devastated and injurious since Rarity was gone. Even if the tremors of loss, I still tried to call out to Apple Bloom, but she ignored me, I raised my voice, still no response. Finally I went up to her and gave her my loudest scream I can ever excite out, while shaking her like the world is about to end. She fell, got up, yelled out (even louder than I have) on who was doing that, and simply walked away.
I suddenly felt scared, and lonely... What just happened back there was not a good thing, it was just like when my family (excluding Maud), ignored my existence two weeks ago. I prayed to Celestia that my friends did not break the Pinkie Promise... Yet... For they should, no. MUST remember me. I make everypony laugh, especially them, even Doodle! Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash are still out there fighting for their freedom and will to smile, and I will do the same!

September 18th
I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE HEADING ANYMORE! I JUST WANT TO CRY ALONE! WHAT IS THIS NONSENSE?! WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?! I KNOW I ASKED THIS BEFORE, BUT I HONESTLY CAN'T STAND THE MANURE!
So... Sorry... It's just *SNIFF*, after three tedious and long months... Rainbow Dash... Is pronounced... Alive and well! We were so delighted with that news, Dashie came out of the hospital building, soaring all over the place! Yes, that's great... But she hugged everypony that were visiting her, especially AJ and Twilight...
But not me... Where am I...? Not even Twilight and AJ...
Instead, they all went to Rainbow Dash, I was happy... Yet sad for them... For they will miss me out... No Pinkie! That's selfish of you! Think for your friend's feelings! Dashie is back, we should all cheer for her! This persuasion did not happen, they seriously walked past me, talking to Dash on how her life was in the hospital. I tried to call them, but they did not...
... or want to hear me...
Rainbow Dash asked where was Rarity and Fluttershy, Twilight and AJ sank. They told her that it was best for Dashie to see for herself, They were right, it was unbearable to listen to the same torment over and over...
And over...
And over...
No... I CAN HEAR THEM! MAA-KKEEEE IT S-ST--STOP!
Wait... Why didn't Dashie ask the two where I was? Were they not aware of who I am anymore? It was just like my family!
I... I thought Twilight and AJ did the Pinkie Promise with me! They can't just break it now, how's that even possible! I was never a bad friend towards them! Was I too annoying?! They should've told me it sooner then!
But whatever happened... They broke the Promise... Why is this happening to me now...?
UGH! THAT'S NOT WHAT I WANTED TO WRITE! Sorry again, the craziness is just flying around all over my brain, and I don't know how to stop it. The paper is getting wet, and a lot, I think I should stop writing for now until you get dry okay?
October 27th
Maud however was the only pony who noticed my presence, and told me that she will live with me and help me out, until I'm resolved that is. However, even with her, it was not enough to cover the loss of... ALL my best friends!
All the days I went out, the pony's sad and angry faces showed out at one another. Not even Twilight can handle this pressure as a princess. I guess just because you have more power does not make you any better, Twilight was right about that, how humble she is. It was impossible for me to show them what was known as... Laughter... Anymore...
November 21st
I sat in my closet, just crying and not want to think about anything, for over thinking will drive me crazy, and if it drives me crazy I will hurt myself, and if I hurt myself I will possibly die, and if I die... That's it to life isn't it? One simple small crumb of the pie will affect another thing that's thousands and millions of times larger.
Maud looked all over for me, and saw me demanding for privacy behind the clothes. She sighed with a blank face, and walked away. I know that she will win eventually, but right now, I want to make myself cry so hard...
So hard...
So hard...
... That in the end, the tears will run out, and I can shift my mood to something better... I hope... That this pain is not eternal...
December 24th
It's Hearth Warming's Eve! Everypony gathered up pretty quickly around to celebrate it, I can only stare out of the window and peek, not even going down to see the Cakes, for they don't recognize anyone living upstairs anymore... It's so strange why this is happening still. But however, Maud finally found it in the book "The Rocky Pie that Nopony Eats": she said it was the Stoner's Curse. Something I never heard before, where did she find that? Was she lying? I don't even know whether should I trust my sister anymore! I'm just done with all of these... Pranks... First I was unheeded by my friends and family, those who I died to love, now my sister coming up with another name of a random disease? Ifsadhgdsgnadsghfasrhjdkklp
So... So sorry, my blood is just pounding my heart all over, and my mane... It was like back when I deceived myself on doubting my friends, like Pinkamena... Maud was right, she HAD to be right, she's my sister, why would she lie to me? In the book, it says:
There is always the exception... The unique Pie of the family... Who was once the most prominent, will fall and be passed like a colorless rock... No one will ever remember who that Pie was, and no one will ever try it out and take a bite out of it.
What do all these mean? Soon, the answers were revealed to me: This curse is only seen in the history of the Pies, and in every generation, one member of the family will unluckily receive it. Stoner's curse was created by a former wizard called Rock Pie, best known for his potion mixing powers, powerful enough to equal a unicorn spell. He made this curse, to keep the Pie family remain devoted to rocks and permenantly live and work in the rock farm. By this, I mean that whoever refuses to follow the formal Pie traditions and customs, will be stoned with this inevitable disease like curse.
The consequence of this curse, is to be removed from existence.
I backed off, I was defeated, why didn't my family tell me this sooner? Were they hiding all this from me? Twilight must've had that in her books no? Maud told me however, that this book is the only copy left, no printed ones. I lunged onto my sister, and begged for a cure. There has to be a way that the Princesses can help if there is no cure!
Maud shook her head, denying all of my desperate requests, she simply told me that the Princesses are immortal, not invincible. They can't deal with everything there is out there, even if I was an element, one of those who saved Equestria millions of times, it does not matter. She then said:
Fate is like a giant gray boulder, no earth pony can move it unless magic.
I then screamed at Maud, pressed tightly onto her stomach, tears burst out of my eyes, like a Breezie being shot in midair, collapsing onto the ground with a "SPLASH!" Why didn't she tell me this sooner! I didn't want to leave all my friends! What did I do to deserve this?! Maud tried to get me off, but I then bit into her, making her bleed enormously, and for awhile she stopped breathing... I then stopped... Realizing what I have done, stopped crying. And sobbed louder, my soul was screaming all over the place, finding an exit route as I was useless as a body. I put my hooves over my head, rolled all over the room, and wanted to apologize, but I was too caught off to control my insanity.
This was definitely not me, I am not feeling myself anymore...
December 31st
Dear Diary,
I have finally came to my senses, Maud forgave my ruthless violence and hugged me in her grasp all day and night... With a straight face that is... There was absolutely no way to get out of this, I... Sorry, I think my pen slipped out of my mouth while I'm writing this, I was utterly tired and exhausted, I just wanted to sleep. The strange thing is, however: my pen fell out while I was holding it firmly with my jaw and teeth, probably because I'm beat and too anxious... Well, see you later alligator!
It is the morning, Maud woke me up to tell me something important. First the bad news: She saw me flashing and shining randomly, for awhile when she tried to touch me, she.. Did not? She tried again, and her hoof went THROUGH ME?! She told me as if I was fading away, like fireflies dying their last flashlight. She had no idea what this means, and I didn't know what to say next...
The good news: Maud decided that we can throw a party for all of our friends, so even if I was not seen, I can visualize my friends in joy, a tear crept out, I smiled, and decided this would be my true farewell party...
January 1st
Dear Diary,
The party was set, all balloons were made with my faces, so that my friends can at least "smile" when they see my joyful goodbye. Cakes of all colors mixed with the parallel striped lines makes up the perfect fashion design for Rarity...
... Oh Rarity...
Gummy I had not forgotten, for he was on Maud's mane the whole time... I... My mouth keeps.. Dro... Drop.... Dropping the pen.... I don't get that part either, I'm just forgotten right? Nothing else too big to punish me...
My friends have arrived! Twilight, Applejack, Rainbow Dash zoomed in and Twilight rolled her eyes, stopped the fast Pegasus with her magic, and pinned her down on the ground. Sigh I wish I can just make some jokes with her or laugh, but Maud and I know that's not gonna happen.
Soon came in bunch of other familiar Ponyville faces, Maud did work hard on sending this invitation..... All those.... Friends I made... Arrived... Just... For me... I can do nothing but cry happily, they still know me...
Twilight chatted with Mrs. Cake about the purpose of this party, I wailed it off, I didn't want to hear it twice. Applejack and Rainbow Dash along with the Crusaders were bucking for apples in the wooden pail, didn't expect Gummy to bite on Rainbow Dash... Again.
I chuckled, but then, they couldn't hear my laughter. I did not want to think about it, and decided to watch Doodle dance... Wait, Doodle is dancing?... HOW EXCITING IS THAT?! HE IS ALWAYS SO GRUMPY AND UPSET ALL THE TIME! NOW HE IS LAUGHING WITH OTHER PONIES SOUNDLY AND SATISFIED! My heart rests in the coffin... A place where I should belong to.
Mr. Cake was talking to Sweetie Drops, on the plan of making a Sweet Dessert competition, soon bunch of others stormed to the chat and bombarded them with unexpected questions. The mare and the stallion sighed and rolled their eyes, surrendering to the mob.
Ooh ooh! I jumped up and down, excited for them, and for myself because then I can... Not join... I hung my head low and walked away...
I wanted to hand out my friends some baked and made goods from the table, at least I can help them in someway. All that was ruined when I was knocked over without being noticed... The cherry cake flipped in the air, and dropped onto me... I sat there, not wanting to get up and retry, was ready to weep. Maybe Maud was right about fate is a boulder, I can't do anything to move it aside. Everypony will just come and go, and not realize my appearance, they were all just oblivious to me now...
Suddenly, a microphone was heard opened. It was Maud, she announced to them all (as always with no emotions), that today is a day to celebrate and honor a great friend of theirs. All guests turned around, looking at each other, waiting for an answer on who this special pony is... Maud simply put her hoof up and described a typical but unique earth pony...
Who was... Pink all over...
How much of a... Party planner she was...
And then... How funny... she was...
How cheerful she was...
How noble she... was to be born... on the very soil... of Equestria...
They shook their heads, not having a single clue on who was my sister mentioning... I don't.... Mind... I crawled back into my room upstairs... I smiled... perhaps my last smile of ecstasy, and cried alone... in the corner...
I wish... I... Can... Just...
Wri.... Mor.....
~~~~~~
January 4th
Dear Diary,
I waited for three days already, and Pinkie Pie is gone. I don't know when will I actually see her again.
I never knew my sister had actually kept this thing, I never knew that a pony like her has privacy closed off, she always shares everything with everyone.
Sweet Celestia. Help me, please. I don't want to go back like this. Boulder said nothing, but I know that he is not in a good shape either. He is crying for somepony that he loves. Somepony that I love.
Now she is gone, and faded...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pinkie bounced off her bed, fully awake, panting, panicking. Her heartbeat were countless as the stars, she pressed her head with her hooves, trying to cover herself from the strange voices inside her head. She walked over to the baby Cakes' bed, they were sleeping just fine and soundly. It was midnight, howls of the wolves can be heard from the Everfree, the growls of the beasts as well.
What really frightened her were not the creature sounds, but rather the silence inside her room, and the Sugarcube Corner. Followed by whispers and arrogant laughs, that aren't really the most friendly sounding laughs either. They gave off a stark feeling to the pink mare, she flinched, and immediately got back onto her bed, covered herself with blankets. Unfortunately, it didn't help her protect herself from those creepy voices from downstairs and inside her mind.
Those voices finally died down, but were followed by a tap on the floor, then another step, then another step. Pinkie was certainly aware that nopony would make such abnormal and erratic hoofsteps. She heard heavy breathing and uncomfortable sounds that wanted to make her run away, but she wasn't sure whether if that was the right thing to do at this point. What if there were more dangers out there waiting for her. Instead of popping out even messier, her mane fell flat like Pinkamena. Tears gushed out her eyes, blue tears more of fear than sadness, she suddenly felt depressed. Once that monster enters the door, she is ready to kill herself, she knew she was going to die any moment now, it was all over for her.
The unknown stepping sound was creeping in, closer and closer, Pinkie's heart was no longer inside her chest as she covered her face to avoid eye contact with the incoming monster, she instead fainted in defeat.
Opened the door, in came was Mr. Carrot Cake, who sighed at Pinkie's awkward sleeping position. Shaking his head and chuckled, he closed the door and returned to his bedroom.
Fin...
