Pink Pegasus
Pink Pegasus.
A one shot story.
...
Pinkie Pie loved sunny days. They were warm and everypony she could see wore smiles, and every smile she saw would make her heart feel lighter and warmer and full of sunshine.
She happily hummed a pleasant song as she bounded along toward the new 'convenience' store, and wondering how you could buy convenience.
She finally rounded the corner and saw the glass front of the new store. Through the window she could see a stand that had all sorts of magazines. She smiled and entered. It was not overly busy at the moment, but that didn't bother her as she checked the store out.
Pinkie spotted a strange machine with clear tubs on top, brightly colored slush swirling about gently. She checked it out and asked a pony that was pouring some of the bright pink slush into a clear cup.
“What's a slushy?”
“I don't know, but the shopkeeper said it was nice and cold, perfect for hot sunny days like today.”
“Really? Niiice.” Pinkie grabbed the largest cup available and started pouring some pink in. She then paused, and started layering them till she had a fair copy of Rainbow Dash's mane. “Yay, the Rainbow Slush.” She giggled and gripped the handy mouth grip after dropping a straw into it.
She paid for the three bit drink and stepped outside, fully intending to enjoy it in the sun's warmth.
She found a bench and sat down, then started drinking.
Pinkie's eyes went wide and how cold and sweet the pink layer was. She smiled brightly and slurped it back in one mighty pull.
“Oh yea, that was HRK!!!” Pinkie's brain felt like it had suddenly become a block of ice. She fell over, twitching uncontrollably for a couple minutes, holding her head as the brain freeze started to finally thaw.
“That was FUN!!!” She bounded back to her hooves, frightening a number of concerned ponies who had come over to see what had happened to Pinkie Pie. A massive grin on her face. “I'm gonna do that again.” She took the refillable cup back inside and was approaching the slush machine again when she saw a sign.
Red Pegasus gives you WIIINGS.
The now forgotten slushy cup slipped from her grasp. “Wings?” Her eyes wide with wonder.
Tall, thin cans were clearly labeled with 'Red Pegasus'. She took one and paid for it at the counter before heading outside.
Pinkie found the bench again and popped open the can. Holding the can between her hooves, she sniffed it. It didn't smell too bad, but it didn't smell that great either.
“Well, I bought it, so may as well try it once.” She sipped it and paused as she swished the fizzy liquid around her mouth. The fizzy drink tickled her tongue and she resisted giggling. It didn't taste all that bad.
She took another sip, then looked at her back. No wings yet.
“Maybe I have to chug it all.” Pinkie put the can to her lips and tilted it back, pouring the liquid into her mouth and down her throat.
In three seconds, she had emptied the can. She looked back at her back and watched as a pair of pink feathered wings erupted from her shoulders.
Pinkie's eyes went wide and her smile grew to cover her face ear to ear.
...
Dash took a calming breath and mentally psyched herself up. “You can do this Rainbow Dash. You can pull off the Sonic Rainboom again. You've done it twice now.” She grinned and then dove off the cloud, flapping her wings to build speed.
She could feel the air resisting her attempt to break the sound barrier, but she pushed forward, building speed.
She could feel it. She could see the air in front of her bending and preparing to shatter.
And then came the ear shattering boom accompanied with a rainbow explosion. She had done it. After thirty seven failures, Rainbow Dash had pulled of her third Sonic Rainboom. She grinned brightly as she pulled up into the sky.
Then she was something odd. A pink... something, was flying toward her. It was moving so fast. Too fast.
Dash watched in a mix of awe and horror as a pink Pegasus broke the sound barrier, creating a huge pink ring of bright light, spreading out and mixing with her own rainbow ring.
The pink streak ripped past at impossible speeds, followed shortly by a second boom and another ring. The streak turned sharply, again and again with each insanely sharp turn there was a boom and a pink ring.
In a matter of ten seconds there were ten awesome pink rings flying and mixing across the sky in the most amazing spectacle Dash had ever seen.
In ten seconds flat, ten Sonic Rain... um, Pinkbooms.
“Holy Celestia...” Dash was in awe. “That... that is so cool...” Her eyes were wide. She knew she should be feeling totally dejected that somepony else could be such a better flier than herself. Still, the sight was one of such awesomeness, she forgot all about feeling bad, and felt pure joy racing through her heart.
“Wow, that looks so neat.” Pinkie's voice giggled next to Dash.
“Yea... so awesome.” Dash grinned at Pinkie Pie.
That grin suddenly cracked.
Rainbow Dash was currently up in the sky, sitting on a cloud.
Pinkie Pie was sitting on the same cloud, no balloon or weird contraption within view.
In fact, Pinkie Pie had... wings? Her mane and tail were strait, but not in Pinkamena mode. Rather, they were slicked back, most likely from the insane speeds she had been flying at moments ago.
“Uh... WHAT IN LUNA'S FULL MOON?” Dash cried.
“I got wings. Isn't that just so pinktacular? Did you see my flying and making all those big pink boomy things? Oh, wanna race? Let's race around the moon and back.”
“Wha... How? Oh Sweet Celestia... it's the Aponyclypse... isn't it?” Dash started looking around, trying to see if she could spot the four Ponies of the Aponyclypse.
Let's just put it this way... those four ponies were currently harassing Celestia to get sent to the moon. It was safer there.
“Oh don't be a silly filly Dashie.” She hugged the somewhat pale Pegasus Pony. “Hey, wanna go play some pranks on ponies?” Pinkie beamed a grin so bright that Celestia had to put on shades and sunblock, SP 10,000.
Luna was in bed, sleeping, and thus saved from being turned to a scorch mark on some wall.
Dash twitched, then grinned. Pinkie Pie, with wings.
Pinkie Pie with wings wanting to pull pranks.
Dash's grin widened. “You bet your slicked back mane.”
...
And that's now Pinkquestria was made...

A/N:
I was contemplating on classifying this as a horror fic.
