"Pinkie Pie, I´m here to.... Pinkie Pie?" The pink pony was nowhere around, Twilight kept looking but a crowd of ponies and other random stuff kept getting in the way of both her sight and her moving path.
She extended her wings and went to the sky but even then, pegasi, griffons, huge clouds and even air balloons blocked her sight.
"Where ´s Pinkie?!" She shouted, frustrated. But then, she heard a giggle from behind a bush.
"Rooll credits!!" She would recognize that voice anywhere. The alicorn flew down to get her. She was wearing a white shirt with red stripes and a matching popeller hat. "Hey, Twi, you found me! That was quick!"
"So we´re trapped in a Where´s Wallaby? foals book?"
"UM, YAAH." She nodded her head as if it would´ve been impossible for them to be trapped anywhere else.
"Thank goodness." Twilight breathed, obviously relieved.
Suddenly, a red crayon appeared, forming a circle around the pink pony, who giggled. "Hey, that tickles!"
The crayon picked Pinkie up from the floor and carried her away. "WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
Twilight tried to follow but everything turned white.When she could see once again, she was in the jungle.
"This is too easy." She put her front hooves around her mouth to use as a megaphone. " CROSS MY HEART AND HOPE TO FLY...!"
"...STICK A CUPCAKE IN YOUR EYE!" The hyper voice came, this time, from inside a crocodile. Twilight wrestled it, opening it´s mouth and revealing Pinkie Pie inside.
"You´re a blessing, Pinkie."
"I DON´T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS BUT THANK YOU!" She squealed, hugging her princess friend with all of her strenght.
The crayon came once again, drew a circle and picked the pony up once again. "WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
This was going to be fun, as most things were when Pinkie had something to do with them.
"Okay, okay, I´m almost done here." Twilight talked to herself as she flew around the old cottages of the fake Griffonstone. Being a children´s book, it was nothing like Pinkie and Rainbow described; or the history books she´d been reading for that matter.
"THERE YOU ARE!!" She called to the pink pony with the shirt and popeller hat she saw.........Just standing there...........Not moving or blinking or doing anything at all......... "Um, Pinkie?" The alicorn poked her friend´s eye with her hoof and she realized It wasn´t Pinkie!! It was a cardboard cut-out!!
"Horse apples." She sighed and was about to turn around when she heard a voice.
"Yes please!! All these Hide-and-Seek is making me a little hungry. Not that I´m not having fun, of course not, I´m the world champ for a reason, you know. Specially since the scenary is Griffonstone, I can´t help but think about Gilda´s mini-cakes, I could reeeeeally use one right now!"
"AHA!!" Twilight called, estatic as she pulled the pink pony, the real one this time, out from under a roof.
"HI AGAIN!! I hope you´re having just as much fun as I am. Hey, when this is all over, I could throw another "Thanks for Saving our Lives and Being the Bestest Friendliest Friend Ever, Princess Twilight Sparkle! Party. I kinda lost count of how many of those we´ve had lately but WHO CARES?! I want cake!!!" Before she could start yammering about food and sweets again, the crayon came again. "AND HI TO YOU!! Hey, Cray-Cray, wanna throw a Part-tay?"
Both mares opened their eyes to find Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash and Rarity playing cards on the floor.
"Do you have rose quartz?" Rarity asked.
"AUGH, COME ON, RARITY!! Just say pink rock or pink crystal or something!!!! We are not Maud Pie!!" Rainbow Dash groaned, it was clear by her tone it wasn´t the first time she´d had to say that in the past hour or so.
"Augh, girls" Fluttershy muttered, facehoofing herself a little bit.
"Um, girls?" Twilight coughed, trying to call attention once again.
"WE´RE BACK!!" Pinkie shouted, waving her hooves around and hugging the three of them with all of her strenght, almost crushing them in the process. "I´VE MISSED YOU SOOOO MUCH!! You should´ve been there it was SO FUN! You won´t believe how good Twilight is at Hide-and-Seek, she never gave up!!"
Rainbow chuckled a little, pulling away from the hug. "Tell me all about it!!"
"Only if we go to the kitchen first I´M STARVING!!"
Fluttershy looked around a little confused. "Which way is the kitchen again?"
Their little talk soon became background noise to Twilight, who still had one more pony left to save and, then, she could go take a nice, long relaxing and much needed nap. She hoped Pinkie didn´t mind she was skipping another party again or she wouldn´t hear the end of it.
