True, heart-stopping terror takes many forms:

Foul beasts roaming the dark who consume their victims, flesh and soul.
The object of one's affections finding a diary they weren't meant to.
Being tardy.

But until now, Equestria has not known the meaning of fear. The past's petty concerns and phobias mean nothing this day, for today, Equestria shall experience unimaginable horror. Today, Pinkie Pie becomes a unicorn.

Time slowed to a stop. Twilight’s pupils tripled in size and her jaw brushed against the floor. Jutting proudly out of Pinkie’s forehead was an enormous horn, easily twice the length of her own. Of course, the size didn’t actually matter. She was just making an observation is all. Having a big horn didn’t mean a pony was skilled at making use of it no matter how many uneducated jerks perpetuated that myth. The Princesses had long horns by chance.

Also, good job with the doorknob line. I assume Spike's going off to the emergency letters cabinet.

Well, time to see if you live up to your name.

1335716 Now that thought won't be entering my mind again for some while.

Despite how much you will disagree, this is good, humorous stuff. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go find my sides.

:rainbowlaugh: Hahahaha, not bad, not bad at all. I did notice a spot or two though, if I may.......

First.....

In a coincidence the likes of which only the worst writers would dare to make use of, her gaze fell upon the perfect word.

"In a coincidence, the likes of...." I believe there should be a comma after those first three words, as I've set-up there.

And Second.......

Stumbling through the front door, Twilight nearly collapsed to the floor. In much the same way that sand invades every conceivable crevice after a trip to the beach, cake and frosting and batter had wound up smeared inside nooks and crannies of Ponyville nopony even knew about.

I believe "....cake and frosting and batter...." should be "....cake, frosting, and batter...."

:twilightsheepish: I could be wrong, and these were the only two things I noticed, but I figured I'd point them out in a bid to be helpful.

:twilightsmile: All in all, I like how you went about this. You have a way with words and it made it all the more entertaining to me. As mentioned before by another reader, the doorknob part was hilarious. As was the whole scene at the begining with the "Confectionary Armageddon". :trixieshiftright: And was that a referance to the fellow FIM author, SS&E (Short Skirts & Explosions), I caught in there? Well played. :twilightsmile: I think I'll be keeping an eye on this one to see how it develops.

Well, this looks like it's building up to something interesting. I am intrigued, good sir! :twilightsmile:

the dangers of short skirts, the ethics of explosions

I see what you did there. :ajsmug:

1335607
Twilight's horn is perfectly adequate. How dare you insinuate otherwise.

1335638
Careful. You've no idea where we may end up and that picture could very well be related before this is over.

1335763
You've already got sides, numbnuts.

1335780
...Maybe.

1335935
On your first correction, perhaps. I can't recall any examples of the phrase in writing at the moment to check, though. Your second correction was a conscious stylistic choice. It may very well be incorrect the way I have it, but I likes it that way. Is smoother. And really, referencing things outside of FiM canon? Who would do something so crass?

1335945
Your intrigue is welcomed. It's really... there's gotta be a better word, but it's really fun to just cut loose and write again. For so, so, so long I've been pursuing a particular flavor of perfection that I'm just not reaching and as a consequence, I've gotten less written. This may not be what I was going for during those many bleak months, but gosh darn it I'm enjoying myself again and if other people are having a good time as well then I don't think I'm in the wrong.
...
But I've no idea what you think you see. I've done nothing shiftyeyesshiftyeyes.

1335955
I've been trying to think of something clever to say to you, but I'm too tired to bother, so I'll just say that I'm glad to hear you're enjoying yourself! I think it's just as important for the author to like their work as it is that the audience likes it.

1335955 :twilightsmile: Ah, a stylistic choice. I guess I hadn't thought of that. I suppose if it were not for such choices then every story would feel the same and have no real individual flavor as per it's writer. And truthfully, I agree. It was a smooth reading of the line regardless.

:twilightsmile: Anywho, continue your fine writing freind. I shall patiently await the next part of this entertaining tale over yonder. *points to a simple little hill with an apple tree on it, then begins walking towards it*

You don't know for how much of this I was expecting Twilights horn to go missing :derpytongue2:

So, basically, either Pinkie teleported into the kitchen or just plain phased through the door.

A unicorn named Pinkie? Yes, the apocalypse has come. I wonder if it was the result of yesterday's disaster? She did mention that she was using magical ingredients and methods.

There was once an episode of a show called 'The Dinosaurs' where the baby ate a whole bag of sugar and the stuff extruded out of his body as a unicorn horn. I wonder if that's what happened here: Pinkie has overloaded her system with sugar and her lymphatic system, in a last ditch attempt to stop a diabetic coma, has started sweating the stuff out to form a kind of sugar-stalactite that looks a lot like a unicorn's horn.

Of course, even in the event of such an explanation, that isn't going to stop Twilight having a panic attack. I hope Spike has gone to send a "Dear Princess Celestia, Please come quickly; Twilight has that expression on her face again!"

1336389 Didn't that show end with the apocalypse and the horrible freezing death of all the characters?

What'll happen first: will Pinkie make a mess of things with her magic, or will Twilight become a candidate for a straitjacket, magical inhibitor, and a padded room in the closest mental institution?

Everyone loves magical Pinkie, 'cause the tricks that she does are ever so... hmm...

Eh, the point stands. Definitely looking forward to more, especially if Pinkie sprouts wings to go with her new extra-large hood ornament.

She licked it; it tasted metallic, without a hint of sweetness to it. “No, Spike. The doorknob feels all wrong, but tastes completely normal.”

Does Equestria count as another planet? If so, Twilight just broke the law.

:pinkiecrazy: Dear Princess Celestia, Equestria is screwed. I suggest preparing a settlement on a new planet. Your Faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle.

:rainbowlaugh: Another great Act, Mr. Writer. Loved it. I especially love the way your wording the act of twilight assessing the situation with pinkie and her new "accessorie". Oh sweet Luna, I had never thought about pinkie getting a horn being so terrifying, but I think when she relised just what she had and how to use it........I even felt reality quake a little. :rainbowderp:

out-box the Soviets’ even bigger muscley stallion boxing champion.  I don’t think I can do it!  I’m not like iron at all!”

It's one thing for Pinkie to be a Unicorn, but Pinkie being aware that's she's a Unicorn?

TWILIGHT! RUUUUUUUUUNNNNNN!!!
...Oh, wait... there's nowhere far enough. Even we the audience probably arent safe... :pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy::facehoof::raritycry::rainbowhuh::applejackconfused::fluttershbad:

Impending epic magical ass-kicking!

Maybe there'll be an epic beatdown now...

That, or Twilight starts crying.

:ajsmug: Another great Act, Mr. Writer. It may have taken me a bit to get a chance to read it, but it was well worth the wait.

:pinkiecrazy: I revel in the final act that will bring a mentally snapped in two twilight and the happy, pink clad, baked goods eating, chaos machine known as unicorn (or would it be alicorn now?) pinkie to it's comedically climactic conclusion.

:twilightsmile: Keep up the great work, Mr. Writer.

"Better Nate than lever!"

This line right here? I honestly laughed out loud. Truly the perfect reference for that point in the story!

Dammit, Worsty. There are no words to describe what I am feeling. NO WORDS.

I think, like, my prefrontal cortex blue screened. I think. If it did blue screen, I probably wouldn't be cognizant enough to realize it.

Um.

Yeah. Up-vote? Up-vote.

But what was the deal with the doorknob?:raritydespair:

1818403 *Rests a hand on your shoulder and shakes head grimly* Don't go down that road my friend...It leads to special eyes.

... I LIKED it when it was serious and funny at the same time. Nothing could be funnier that the party-pony winning and making everyone wear partyhats all the time.

Welcome to PartyVille, llast stop to Cakerlot. :pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy:

Eh, the ending was more random than comedy anyways.

Then again, Pinkie pie.

I honestly have no words for what I just read....... Did I even read it right? I'm so confused and I can't stop laughing so its hard to think. I now know how Twilight felt.

the dangers of short skirts, the ethics of explosions,

Short Skirts and Explosions you say?

“No, Spike. The doorknob feels all wrong, but tastes completely normal.”

That's the best line I've read, ever.

The cookie in front of Pinkie suddenly doubled in size. The corner of her mouth turned upward a few degrees. Something deep in the core of reality broke. Twilight shuddered. Dash shivered. A sinister grin crept across Pinkie’s face as she disappeared in a bright flash of pink light.

The mind-numbing terror has been doubled!

“Things explode around here all the time; you get used to it.”

“That’s... unsettling,” she said with a frown.

I was going to comment on how many of them are probably caused by Twilight, herself, but, darn it, the story beat me to it.

Total protonic reversal.

I TOLD you not to cross the streams!

ski-jumping over a shark is cool.

:rainbowlaugh:

I'd ask 'what?', but then Pinkie would yell at me again. The end of it was dangerously meta, but it worked out okay.

Naaaaaaaaaaaaa Na na Na Naaa Na naaaaa Na na Katmari Damacyyyyyyyyy
