All set for the party!” Pinkie said with a grin, which slowly faded to a frown. This was the last party she would be throwing for her friends before they leave and move on with their lives. The Wonderbolts accepted Rainbow Dash as their new chief, she would be leaving with them to go on tour soon. Applejack has bought a new farm with more land; she was finishing up the last of her packing and will be leaving tomorrow. Rarity accepted a job in Manehatten she will soon shine across Equestria as the one of the greatest fashion designers of her time. Fluttershy is taking a job at an animal shelter, it is located in Fillydelphia. Then there was Twilight, now that she was a Princess she was requested to move back to Canterlot, to uphold her new royal duties. Pinkie Pie sat staring at the ceiling; starting tomorrow she would be alone. Her friends have all moved on with their lives, except for her, she was still throwing the same old parties, with the same old balloons, the same old streamers. She always thought that there was more time, but here she was throwing a goodbye party for her closest friends. Pinkie sat stood up and looked at the pictures she had on her wall. Looking at them brought back a flood of happy memories, remembering when she threw a welcoming party for Twilight. She laughed remembering how surprised she was! She looked at all of her pictures, but one picture brought back a memory that she would never forget. The picture was the six of them at the gala, a tear began to slide down her cheek, and she wished that there was more time, but nothing last forever. She walked to the bathroom and ran a shower; she washed her hair with her favorite cotton candy scented shampoo then hopped out. Once she dried herself off she made her way over to the kitchen and checked the time. 10:30 a.m., her friends would be here in about an hour and a half. She started to bake all sorts of goodies from cookies to cupcakes. After an hour of baking she looked at the clock 11:30, she had 30 minutes to set up food and set the tables. She rushed over and set things up rather quickly, only took her 5 minutes. “Well that worked out A-OK!” she said while bouncing. She still had 25 minutes to spare and everything was already set up. She decided to leave the bakery and spend some time alone. She knew that she was supposed to be happy for her friends, and yet she was sad angry all at once. She didn’t know if she should scream in anger or cry in sorrow. “STUPID TIME! This is all your fault!” she fell to the ground and began to cry away her sorrow. But there was no amount of crying that would make her feel better, not even a party could brighten her mood. She looked at the clock tower; it was almost 12:00. She pulled herself together and ran back to Sugercube Corner. When she got back to the bakery she was relieved that her friends weren’t there yet. She looked around at all the decorations and goodies that were sprawled about. She did a really good job decorating; it may be one of her personal best. This got her to smile, but only for the moment. It didn’t change the fact that her friends were moving away, and that she would almost never get to see them. Tears began do drift down her cheeks; she wasn’t sure if she would be strong enough to say goodbye. “Pinkie Pie!” Twilight called as she walked through the doors of Sugercube Corner with the rest of her friends following right behind her. Pinkie quickly wiped away her tears then went to greet them. “Oh goodie you’re here!” Pinkie yelled as she bounced over to her friends. “Wow this is amazing Pinkie, you must have spent all day planning this party.” Twilight said giving a friendly smile. “Yeah, this place is pretty awesome Pinkie.” “Oh I think it’s just magnificent darling!” “It’s so lovely Pinkie Pie.” “This place looks even better than the last hoedown I went to!” Pinkie was excited to see her friends, for this would be the last time she saw them for a while. “Well let’s not just stand around! It’s time to PARRRRRTY!!!” After hours of partying the 6 ponies became tired, they took a break from dancing and enjoyed the treats that were set out on the tables. A couple more hours went by and it was time for everypony to go home. They began to leave one by one until it was just Pinkie Pie. She sat down, and tears welded up in her eyes, for that was the final party she would have with her friends for years to come. Pinkie Pie walked upstairs and stared at the pictures again. She couldn’t hold back the tears anymore, she stared to sob. Her mane then deflated and went straight. She then heard the bell from the door downstairs. “Looks like I have a customer.” Pinkie walked down stairs hanging her head. When she got down there she saw Twilight standing there. “Pinkie Pie I need to talk to you, you haven’t been yourself lately.” Pinkie began to cry again, Twilight ran over and gave her a hug. “Pinkie I know why you are upset. But you don’t have to worry; we will always be there for you.” “I know that Twilight… but I will never get to see you girls, I don’t want us to grow apart. Pinkie said trying to hold back more tears. “I have an idea Pinkie how about we get together every weekend, all 6 of us.” “Really we can do that?” “I don’t see why not, and don’t worry we can never drift apart. Even if the elements of harmony are gone we are still joined together, as friends, no, best friends.” Pinkie looked at Twilight and began to smile. She wrapped her arms around her and Twilight did the same. They hugged for a couple of minutes then Twilight stood up and gave Pinkie a small smile. “Well Pinkie I will see you in the morning, I’m sure you will want to see us off.” “I will be there, Pinkie swears!” Twilight then left, and Pinkie was alone again. But she didn’t feel sad, she felt, relieved. Pinkie let out a sigh and bounced off to bed. The next morning Pinkie woke up extra early, she showered and ran outside. Her friends were probably on their way to the train station, she thought it would be a nice surprise if she was waiting there for them. She waited a couple minutes and finally saw her friends walking toward. She smiled and gave them all a big hug, once they hugged for a few seconds it was time for them to go. They said their goodbyes and parted, Pinkie began to walk home. When a tear dripped down her face, but this wasn’t a tear of sorrow, it was a tear of joy.
