Pinkie Pie sighed as she baked her last batch of fruity tootie cupcakes. "This should do for tommorow's sales." She slowly went to sleep, counting only up to fifty sheep to get asleep. After a good sleep, she suddenly woke up from the noises of giggling and laughing. "Eeek! Wait a second... It's only you guys..." said a surprised Pinkie Pie. "Of course it's us! Good morning!" cried Twilight Sparkle. "It's morning already?" Pinkie Pie grumbled, her eyes half-closed. "Yep." said a fresh athlete, Rainbow Dash- reading "Daring Do and The Sapphire Stone" again. Pinkie rushed out of bed. "So what is it guys? You hardly visit me when I'm sleeping." yawned Pinkie Pie. Twilight slowly closed her grin, and began to speak. "I've been trying a new spell. It's supposed to make you twice as strong as you are. I was wondering... Do you want to try it?" "Sure! I don't mind." said a happy Pinkie Pie. "Okay then, wake up and get out of your pink silk pajamas." Twilight giggled. "Uhm, Twilight," paused Pinkie Pie. "Huh?" she asked. "Can I bring Gummy? He gets real grumpy if he's alone..." whispered Pinkie Pie. "Whatever. Just come on, follow me." Pinkie Pie threw off her pajamas, and picked Gummy up from his slumber. The mane six traveled in a herd to the library. "It's much safer here. Okay Pinkie Pie, here I go!" The indigo unicorn raised her horn, and glowing aura surrounded it, and a beam of light shot Pinkie Pie, pink orbs surrounding her, faster and faster she spun... "Whee!" squeaked Pinkie Pie. Twilight just stood there, her horn glowing brighter than the sun, all her concentration on Pinkie Pie. Pinkie Pie now was rapidly spinning as fast as a tornado, the two ponies glowing together. The magic sparked, and it was done. Pinkie Pie looked no different than she was before. "Pinkie Pie, lift something heavy." commanded Twilight. She tried to lift the the table, but there was nothing going on. "Still heavy," said Pinkie Pie. "I-it didn't work?" questioned Twilight. She quickly threw the spellbook on the floor. "This doesn't work!" she hollered, filling the room with her echoes. "I'll take care of Twilight," Spike volunteered. "You guys take Pinkie Pie home." Pinkie Pie grabbed Gummy and reluctantly left with the others. "Say, Pinkie Pie, do you wanna help me and Apple Bloom shuck some apples?" muttered Applejack. "Okay..." Pinkie Pie was tired alright, but she just couldn't say no to her friends. "We're here, Big Mac!" the big horse stretched his back, and stood there. "Ehhyup." "Toss them apples here," cried Applejack. Applejack was holding a bucket, and Pinkie Pie shot an apple for the bucket. They repeated the step for a long time, and then Applejack stopped. "Where's Apple Bloom?" Then, she shot a smile. "Probably with the other Cutie Mark Crusaders." The two mares heard the three fillies in Applejack's treehouse, giggling and singing. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~ "Sweetie Belle, I know what your talent is! You're a singer!" Apple Bloom shrieked. Sweetie Belle quickly turned around to her flank, but didn't see a cutie mark. "That's not it..." she frowned. "Apple Bloom- maybe your talent is to be the best kung fu artist!" Scootaloo screamed. Apple Bloom turned around even quicker, only to see her pale yellow skin. "Aw shucks," she mumbled. "I really thought that'd be it..." ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~ Outside, it was already night, and Pinkie Pie waved good bye. The weary little pony and the green alligator walked to their home- side by side.... Pinkie Pie rushed to sleep at once. She covered herself in the cozy, pink blanket. And she dreamed. Dreamed a happy dream. Slowly, all those happy thoughts started to meltdown. The cozy feeling began to feel horrific. An image of Pinkamena began to appear, and disappear... Then, Pinkamena slowly held a bloody cupcake, and a spoonful of blood in her hands. The next image was Pinkamena and Rainbow Dash, except the fact that Rainbow Dash was dead. Pinkie Pie began hearing sounds. [Paranormal Activity:] She hyperventilated faster and faster... The blood rushed to her hooves. The more Pinkie Pie feared herself, the more Pinkamena turned alive. Suddenly, a ghostly replica of Pinkie emerged out of her, possibly her evil soul. She smiled, and waved good bye to her counterpart. Pinkie Pie was alive, but not entirely. She couldn't get up. Without her counterpart, she would die. ~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~ Twilight gracefully woke up, not realizing anything that was going on. She normally began to eat her waffles. Suddenly,- A cloud of green smoke emerged from the little dragon's mouth. "A letter!" cried Twilight. "Dear Twilight, There are certain issues, my faithful student. I recommend you come over to me right now. From, Celestia." Twilight saddled her bags, set into the carriage. She recited a spell from her book before she left. "Two dragons come together, feel the drums together, two dragons dance. Two dragons dance together, take a chance together, two dragons sing. Two dragons sing together, take wing together, two dragons fly. Two dragons fly together, own the sky together, Two dragons are as one." -By DeadlyRose
