The fourth wall stole it
"TWILIGHT! TWILIGHT!" Pinkie screamed as she cartwheeled into Twilight's castle, dodging every cake in the way. Why is there cake? Because with Pinkie, there's always cake.
BUT RIGHT NOW THERE'S NO TIME FOR CAKE!
"Pinkie?! What's wrong?" Twilight jumped up from her cheese throne, it's a gouda seat.
"The biggest most stupendeous and biggest baddest thing that could ever happen to us has happened!" Pinkie pressed her face against Twilight so hard that her crown jumped off her head and after tipping its hat, decided to go for a late brunch.
"Well out with it Pinkie Pie, I don't have all day. Spike will be done mowing the candy canes any time now and I'm out of chocolate."
"THE COVER ART IS MISSING!" Pinkie screamed so loud that two of the books in the library across the hall decided they had better places to be and flew out the window.
Twilight looked at mad pink terror with a look that could scare a chinchilla into guacamole. "Pinkie? What cover art? What are you talking about?"
Pinkie's mane deflated so hard it punched a hole through the floor. "You don't know what I'm talking about?" She cried a tear that bounced off the floor and rolled onto a golf course for a hole in one. "Oh wait?!" she exclaimed, her mane bouncing back so fast that the whiplash from it caused a small black hole to go on holiday. "I bet Applejack knows where it went!"
Pinkie flew out of the castle so fast that the door exploded into s'mores that she then rode down the road to around the corner. There she found Applejack bucking oranges into trees.
"APPLEJACK! THE COVER ART IS MISSING!"
"Well of course it's missing," Applejack took off her hat to fan herself before another fruit joke a-pear-ed. "Darn tootin. We chased it off our land before it had a chance to go a kickin more chicken."
Pinkie stared anvils at the freckled farmer, "where did it go?!"
"I think it went down to Fluttershy's cottage," She gestured down the way she came as she put her hat back on in an epic breakdancing fashion.
Pinkie flipped down the road to Fluttershy's, sparing no salmon as she did so. She got there just as Angel bunny was pulling her out of a hat.
"FLUTTERSHY!" She shouted so loud that Angel hiccupped into a frog. "IN THE NAME OF ALL THINGS ANDREA LIBMAN, DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE COVER ART IS?!"
Fluttershy looked at her from behind her mane like a cat that needed additional pylons. "Um...sorry Pinkie. I don't think I have one you can adopt here. Did you check with Rarity? Maybe she has one on her new line."
"THAT'S BRILLIANT!" Declared Pinkie, happier than the time she taught Gummy how to tap dance. "I'll check with her right away!"
"Stop by anytime," said Fluttershy as she looked back to the frog. "Now where were we?"
Pinkie twirled her way into Rarity's boutique, "RARITY!...GASP." She tried to catch her breath before it ran away. "COVER ART!...DO YOU HAVE?!"
"No dear, I can't say I do," She said as she flourished her green hair. "But while you're here, what do you think of my new line?" She gestured to all the ponyquins behind her, all of the garbed in full brown. "I call it...ACCENTS! I WILL TAKE THE NEXT SEASON BY STORM!"
Pinkie stormed out like a wave of chocolate rain. The only friend she hadn't checked with was Rainbow Dash.
SHE MUST'VE STOLEN THE COVER ART!
Pinkie raced down to the local swimming hole, using her speed to bounce up to Rainbow Dash's cloud volcano fortress of doom. She slid down the chili pepper slide to find the back of a gingerbread chair with a rainbow mane spilling over the top of it.
The chair slowly turned around to find Rainbow Dash sitting upon the seat with an eyepatch while she stroked a small griffon on her lap. "I see you've found my secret cloud volcano fortress of doom."
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH THE COVER ART, YOU FIEND?!" She demanded while taking another step forward through the popcorn.
"Not another step Pinkie Pie," the griffon jumped off her lap as she held up a chocolate fondue fountain in one hoof and held a dollop of mustard to it with the other one. "Take another step and the fondue gets it."
"You monster, leave that chocolate alone. This is between you and me." Pinkie took a step back through the candy apples. "Just spare the cover art, and I'll give you whatever you want."
"But Pinkie," said Rainbow as she nuzzled the fondue into a ball of fluff. "I already have everything I want." And then she stepped on the nearby gumdrop, causing Pinkie to slide down the snake as Rainbow looked to her griffon. "What? She'll get over it."
Pinkie slid down the licorice at top speed into the ground, causing her to bounce and skid over the river and through the woods, to grandmother's house we go. As luck would have it, grandmother didn't have the cover art either.
So defeated and alone, Pinkie dragged her lost hopes into the nearest gingerbread house. As she checked the nearest granite oven, life totally started to rock as she opened it and pulled out the cover art.
"I FOUND THE COVER ART!" She celebrated to the world as tears of taffy rolling down her face. She cut herself a big slice of it and got ready to celebrate. However as she took a big bite of it, Equestria exploded into confetti.
----
Discord startled himself awake out of his banana while mostly somewhere else. "What in the name of all things chaotic was THAT all about?"
----
Pinkie jumped awake, a massive headache plaguing her.
"I really need to stop drinking coffee before bed."
----
Luna crawled up off the floor, her head feeling like it was splitting down the middle.
"Thou wouldst think by now we wouldst have learned that some dreams are better left alone."

This feels like it should go into TheMajorTechie's story "What if."
Upvote this comment if you agree
I giggled.

my tonkus senses tingled and here i am
10558633
I'm not actually familiar with them.
10558638
When I read those 4 words, I instantly thought of your story
10558639
Oh
Well, TheMajorTechie is right there
10558645
there he is, have some cotton candy pizza. If Pinkie doesn't eat it all.

Yeah, I suspected as much. Fun bit of madness, but it's a bit much.
10558648
What I mean is that if you don't know about "What if," then the author is right there
10558652
I lose my mind for five minutes every day and call it content.
10558652
ok I found it, search engine hates me
10558656
Hah
10558658
Ok
Be prepared for an absolute nightmare of almost constant absurdity
10558660
I write serious stuff sometimes too. :P
10558661
I know. That's why I put "almost"
So anyway, have a like on this here story. :V
It's nonsensical. It's inconsistent. It's madness.
I love it.
Everything was completely idiotic but presented as if it was absolutely normal, just like real dreams. Good job.
10558775
thank you kindly, feel free to take a free potato for the next time you shovel the grass

I think I just might take you up on that offer, but it’ll have to wait until after the cicadas outside my window finish their third performance of Colorshow by the Avett Brothers. Afterwards though, I will definitely accept that black licorice the next time it snows in Egypt.
"Twilight jumped up from her cheese throne, it's a gouda seat."
Assembled with Swiss precision, no doubt.
The gouda sh*t is clearly what the writer was smoking.

eeyup
I had a vague, half-idea of what the hell was going on.
Read it in one go too, didn't want to reread words or anything.
In the end, that half-idea died, murdered to death by brainthought crowthings.
Brava.
If I understood this correctly, Pinkie was dreaming that Discord was dreaming, and Luna woke up because Pinkie broke Luna's brain.
Did I get it?
10559886
Close enough
What-
If you don't mind, I'll translate your fic on Russian. Of course, all credits will be in the translated fic description.
10561130
sure, I got np with that, as long as it says it's a translation of my work

Here are links to the Tabun, FicBook, PonyFiction and Google Docs.

Fantastic
Well, Rainbow Dash also stole the 20% cooler thing, so she is the prime suspect here.
Good story!
I enjoyed reading it.
10561934
math be hard,
if one is 20% cooler, does that mean one is only mildly more frigid
I think Luna once visited my dreams and that happened. Luna appeared, looked shocked and confused, and disappeared. That was the only time anyone didn’t just go along with the dream. Also, my neighbors all encountered someone who traveled between dreams about the same time, all of which had weird similarities. Wild, huh?
10562224
depends on whether or not all subconscious is part of the same primal mind, we've just evolved to the point that the instinct is now ignored.

The weirdest part is, the character had a name that none of them had any reason to think about. The name was Gerard. Really weird coincidence. That, or space magic. Hoping for the latter.
What the actual—
Shut up and take my upvote.
U can’t even figure out how to do art for blogs if it’s not a cover art link 😭
Yes
That was... weird, in a good way
Discord can't compare
This is a delightfully weird story. Crank the volume up to 11 and rip off the knob.
