> Mama Pinkie Pie > by Sparkle Dust > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Pinkie's Problem > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pinkie Pie woke up to a parade. Oh,no! I'm going to miss the parade! Pinkie thought. "...Where's Pinkie Pie?" Princess Celestia asked. Oh,great! Celestia's here,too! Pinkie Pie panicked. She stepped out of Sugar Cube Corner,and all her friends and Princess Celestia crowded her. "Pinkie Pie!Where were you?!"Rainbow Dash asked. Pinkie Pie put a cheery face on and began to sing: Well.....Do you really want to know what I was doing? Do you even care? 'Cause it seems to me that you really,really don't! You're just using me for the day! You'll abandon me soon enough What I want to do,is just stay in my bed. Because all I need is to get some rest but wait, no I can't! Everyone stared at Pinkie,looking offended. "Geez, I just asked a question. I didn't need no musical." Rainbow Dash said. "Pinkie, I am disappointed. You are normally up early, and the parade is about to begin." Twilight shook her head. "I wish you could have gotten up early." Rarity said. "After all, I get up early to work on my mane." "And ah get up to pick apples to see if they're ready."Applejack put in. "I get up to knock out the clouds." Rainbow Dash flew up and knocked out a cloud for emphasis. "I bet you don't get up to feed a lot of hungry animals." Fluttershy was gentle. "Now,now. Don't pick on Pinkie just because she overslept. There must be a good explanation for this." Celestia and the others looked at her for an explanation. "Why do you think I slept in late? Maybe I wanted to sleep in a little later than usual! You can too!You wish that you don't have to get up so early,huh?! Wanna know what I wish for?! I wish that everyone were babies!Everyone in Equestria!" Everything went black. > Babies?! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pinkie Pie woke up. What a terrible dream! she thought. She went down to tell one of her friends about her dream. She trotted down the stairs. Then she noticed. All of her friends and Princess Celestia were babies! "Oh my gosh!" Pinkie ran outside. Everyone in Ponyville were now babies! "Uh-oh!" The babies started crying. All of them. She decided to take them all to Sugarcube Corner. She sung them a song: Hush little babies don't you cry, Pinkie's gonna buy you an apple pie Because I hope that this pie tastes good, because I made it with lots of love also I made it with some sugar and apples from Sweet Apple Acres I would advise that you thank Applejack, except now she is a baby so you can't remember this song. I am gonna find us a lumber jack, or maybe I can find us Zecoraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! The babies continued to cry. "Wait!" The babies stopped crying. Pinkie remembered the flour trick. She got a bag of flour and poured it on herself. All the babies laughed. She made them a bed to sleep on made out of blankets. They were placed on the bed and fell asleep almost instantly. Celestia, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Rarity, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo, Minuette, Berry Punch, Rose, Daisy, Twist... Mr. and Mrs. Cake...but where are Pumpkin and Pound Cake? Pinkie was counting each baby. But where were baby Cakes?... Pinkie began to panic. She decided to look for them. "Pumpkin?...Pound?...Pumpkin?...Pound?...Baby Cakes?...Come on out....Please?" Pinkie Pie gave up. That is, until she saw the creamy aura.She looked up to see two mare and a stallion about her age in front of her. > Help is on the Way...Maybe... > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pinkie Pie was shocked at what she has seen. "Who are you?" Pinkie stammered. "Oh, well, I am Pumpkin,"the unicorn mare pointed to herself, then pointed to the pegasus mare,"this is Pound," she moved to the petite mare pegasus with the abnormally large wings, "and this is Stardust. We heard you calling us 'Baby Cakes' and we are NOT babies. We are all thirteen, and we demand you call us by our names. Please?" Pinkie sighed and said, "Well, you see, I sort of...wishedthateveryponyinEquestriawerebabiesandnoweveryponyISababybutIhaven'texactlycheckedCanterlotsoIhavenoideaiftherestofEquestriaisactuallyababy." Pinkie Pie rushed. "Oh. So that explains it." Pumpkin looked at the other ponies. "Well,how about we find a way to help Pinkie to get the city back to normal?" Stardust said shyly. "Great idea! Only, we need all of Equestria back to normal. Pound, fly around Equestria into every city to see if it has all babies. The rest of us will find a spell to get rid of this curse." Pumpkin said. Pound flew off. The Pumpkin and Pinkie ran to the library. Stardust stayed behind to watch the sleeping babies. "So, what we need is a curing spell. How did it happen, even though you already explained it?" Pumpkin expected an answer. "I was mad and I made up a song about nobody caring about me, then everyone compained and wished that they could sleep in...and I wished for all of Equestria to become babies." Pinkie said. "Wait! Were you with the Princess?" Pumpkin now looked excited. " Um, yeah, why?" "That's it!" Pumpkin found a spellbook, and they ran of to Sugarcube Corner. " I've got it! Stardust, fly over and get Pound, quick!" Pumpkin rushed her off. " Get the people that were with you, and let's do this!" Pinkie Pie gathered her friends and Celestia, and said for Pumpkin to begin the spell. Pumpkin tried the spell. It didn't work. She tried it again. It failed. She opened her mouth and sang: It's not working No, it's not. It's not working No it's not. I keep, I keep on trying but it fails, fails, fails It's not working No it's not. I tried, I tried the spell but it won't work, work, work It's not working No it's not. Will the spell work out, out, out? I keep on trying but it fails, No prevails Yes, it fails. It's not working No it's not Pinkie, Pound, and Stardust looked at each other, then at her. "What? I sing when I'm stressed." > Oops...I can't do it again > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Well...maybe I can just make it so that...no...." The four ponies were thinking of a way to get everyone back to normal. "I know!! How about you wish again, Pinkie?!" Stardust was excited for this idea. "Celestia's horn! It's...glowing!" "Okay...I wish that everyone who is babies now isn't babies anymore! Or anywhere in Equestria!" Pinkie Pie closed her eyes. **************************************************************************************************************** "Whoa...what just happened?" Rainbow Dash. "...Ah had the weirdest dream!..." Applejack. "It was horrible...I was a...BABY! And I desperately needed a diaper change! Ugh!..." Rarity. "...And the baby Cakes were older, and my sister was there too..." Fluttershy. "...I had that dream too!..." Celestia. Pinkie Pie opened her eyes. "Where's the parade! And where is Pumpkin? And Pound? And Stardust? I need to see them!" She began to sing: Equestia is back to normal Nopony is a baby Equestria is back to normal Everything is the way it should be Fluttershy, you were so adorable You were oh-so shy, but you were free But you were not kind to the others But now everything is the way it should be Fluttershy joined in: Equestria is back to normal Nopony is a baby Equestria is back to normal Everything is the way it should be Applejack and Rainbow Dash, you were the leaders of the pack Nopony knew what was going on, not even me You seemed to understand the orders But now everything is where it should be Rainbow and Applejack joined as well: Equestria is back to normal Nopony is a baby Equestria is back to normal Everything is the way it should be Rarity, you were very picky Like how you threw a diaper at me You also loved shiny things But now everything is where it should be Rarity also joined: Equestria is back to normal Nopony is a baby Equestria is back to normal Everything is the way it should be Celestia and Twilight, you were magical Celestia made this town back to normal, let her be Twilight was the calm one But now everything is where it should beeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Equestria is back to normal! Nopony is a baby! Equestria! (Equestia!) Is back to normal! Everything is the way it should be!! "Pinkie...the baby Cakes are right here."Twilight pointed to the babies...and they weren't the look they had before. "What?... I don't understand..." Pinkie just jumped up and said, "Oh, well! Let's start the parade!" Everypony cheered.
