> Gala pony amour > by MajorArcana17 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The amour begins > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- One fateful, hot day, Pinkie was standing on a bridge that overlooked ponyville when she heard hoofsteps behind her. She was wondering who it was, when she heard their voices. "Pinkie, I love you," they said in unison, for it was Party Favor and Cheese Sandwich! Glaring at each other, they began to proclaim their love for her. Secretly, Pinkie was charmed at how much they cared for her. " Pinkie, come with me and I will make your dreams come true," said Party Favor, alluringly. "No Pinkie," cried Cheese,"come with me and we will be the best, most famous party ponies in the land," To Pinkie, both offers sounded good and she felt that Cadance was messing with her. How would she choose? The boys started arguing, "What did you ever do to help Pinkie?" asked Party Favor. "Ummmm, I gave her the laughter key," replied Cheese. "Well I got her cutie mark back," boasted Party Favor. "Mine was better!" "No, mine was!" "Enough," yelled Pinkie,"stop arguing over me, can't you see that I'm trying to think!" That was followed by a silence.The boys glanced at each-other then at Pinkie, time seemed to be going so slow. Finally, Pinkie stated to speak, "Alright guys, I have an idea. Each one of you gets to take me on a date. Next week, I will pick one of you to go out with. Understood?" "Yes mam," the boys answered. "Good, now go," Pinkie commanded. Phew, Pinkie thought to herself,I need a nap. Then she trotted off to sugar cube corner. > Pinkie's nightmare > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was in a dark ally, who knows why, when I started to tingle."Whats going on?" I asked the echoing darkness. "Hello," a voice said, unsettling. It was definitely male. "W-wh-who are you?" I asked the voice. "You'll find out soon," the voice said with a smirk. As he said it, a light came seemingly out of his face. With that clue, I decided he was a unicorn stallion, but I couldn't see his face due to the fact that he was covered all over with a cloak. I started running, but the alleyway seemed like an endless darkness engulfing me. I kept running and running. I knew I couldn't stop. Suddenly, I ran into a navy, silky blanket of stars and, just like that, she was gone. ******************************* "Girls, come quick she's awake!" Pinkie vaguely heard someone yell, "Girls, hurry," She heard four sets of hooves enter the room. "Applejack, hurry darling," Rarity called gracefully. "Comin' ya'll," Applejack yelled back in her country accent,"How is she?" "She's OK," replied Twilight. Finally, another set of hooves entered, "I brought cupcakes ya'll," "What happened?" Pinkie croaked, "I was in this dark ally and then....." "It's OK, you don't have to tell us," whispered Fluttershy in her usual soft voice, "it's just that you were shivering and groaning in your sleep," "w-w-was I?" "you were," said Applejack. "oh, well, I better tell you what happened then," she then told them about the events earlier and her nightmare. It felt good to tell them what happened. She decided to tell Party Favor that his day to have the date was tomorrow (Tuesday) and to tell Cheese that his day was Wednesday. "Bye girls," she waved good-bye to them, "help yourself to cakes," and with that, she left her room. "She didn't eat my cupcakes," sighed Applejack. > Getting ready > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why did I ever decide to do this? What happened to my brain? GAHH!!! I can't think straight! Deep breaths pinkie, deep breaths. Just two days, two days. This is what was going on through pinkie's mind as she got ready for her date with Party Favor. She was wearing her first gala dress from a year ago. She was ready for this, for she was Pinkie Pie! > Party Favor's date > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- There was a knock at the door. Pinkie straightened her dress out and went to go get it. Party Favor was there and was wearing a suit. "How are you Pinkie Pie?" asked Party Favor. "Fine," replied Pinkie. "Good, well, follow me now Pinkie," Pinkie obeyed and he led her into the poshest restaurant in Ponyville, the golden hoof. Pinkie was amazed, she ad never been there in her life before now. Ho did he get the bits to afford this? She decided to ask him later. As she was thinking, a waiter came and showed them where to sit. It was a table close to the window, but that wasn't what made Pinkie gasp. The table had a pink tablecloth embroidered with balloons, on top of that, there was a candle burning brightly and a table set for two. "Wow," she breathed, amazed, "how did you afford this?" "My job as Rarity's assistant pays well," Party Favor replied to Pinkie's question, "what do you want to eat?" "Ummm, heygetti bolognese please," "OK, two heygetti bologneses for us," Party Favor told the waiter sharply. "Y-yes sir," the waiter went off to tell the chef. He returned shortly withe their meals. While they ate, they made small talk, suck as telling each other things about their childhoods. All the while, Pinkie had a voice in the back of her mind telling her that: Pinkamena Diane Pie, this boy is not right for you! She secretly agreed but she didn't tell Party Favor for fear of making him sad. When they had finished the meal, Party Favor paid and they went their separate ways. "One down, one to go," she said to herself quietly as she walked home. > A chat with Rarity > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "and so he payed for the meal and walked off without saying a word!" Pinkie just finished telling Rarity what happened last night. "What! Did he really take you out on a date and not walk you home?" Rarity sounded exasperated. "Yep," Pinkie said glumly. At the time, she hadn't realised how much of a deal it was. She was starting to wonder whether talking to Rarity was a good idea. "W-w-well thats so uncouth," Rarity sounded offended, "are you looking forwards to your date with cheese?" She sounded sofer. "I don't know," Pinkie replied, "I mean he's always been one of my besties but I'm not sure," "It's OK, he'll always be your friend no matter what happens," Rarity soothed Pinkie. Pinkie managed a small smile, "What am I wearing tonight?" "You'll see," Rarity smiled. > Cheese Sandwich's date > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pinkie Pie was leafing through her her old sticker book, looking at all her old creations. She sighed. "What if I can't choose between Cheese or Party favor?" she thought, "What if......". She was suddenly interrupted by a loud Bang and confetti all over her mane. "I hope you say yes, oh yes To be my lovely guest Come to a fantastical party, for you, to who, to you, to who? It's you!!!!!!!! It's a date, a date, a date, a date!! Come with me, with me, Dine with me, with meeeeeeee!!!!!!!" Sang Cheese sandwich. Pinkie was laughing and applauded and cried, "That was the best song ever!!!!!!!!!!!!". She flung herself onto Cheese and nuzzled him to death. "Thank you, thank you!!!" laughed Pinkie. Cheese nuzzled her back. "Aww, I'd do anything for my special somepony" he said. This caused Pinkie to snuggle into his chest. He chuckled, "Ok Pinkie, time to party!!". Pinkie got up and nodded. Cheese took her hoof and led her to her party. When they arrived Pinkie squealed with happiness. The field was filled with ponies and tents. There were pink pies, big cheese sandwiches, massive party cannons and pink and orange dance floors. Pinkie hugged Cheese and laughed "Cheesy weesy, you did this for me?". Cheese nodded and said, "Anything for you my little cupcake". For the rest of the afternoon they laughed, danced, watched the circus act and ate all the cotton candy they could manage. When they left, they embraced. > The big fight > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After their deep, passionate kiss, they slowly parted. Pinkie hugged Cheese and said, "I-I love you...". Cheese kissed her cheek and replied, "I love you too". They slowly trotted back into Ponyville, occasionally nuzzling each other. What they didn't see was that somepony was watching them, through balloon binoculars. "She will be mine, not his, mine" muttered the pony. When Pinkie and Cheese reached the doors of Sugar Cube Corner, a pony popped a balloon and said darkly, "You hear this balloon pop?," Pinkie nodded,"This signifies your future, it popping away from you". Without warning, the pony jaw decked Cheese sandwich to the ground and held him there. Pinkie screamed in fear, "What are you doing to my Cheesy!!?". She was starting to sob. The pony took off his hood, revealing him to be Party Favor. Pinkie gasped, "W-Why would you d-d-do this? I thought you were nice!!! Now let go of Cheese you monster!!!". Party Favor let go, "If you insi-". Cheese kicked him off his back, causing him to hit a wall. Party Favour kicked off the wall and charged at Cheese, jabbing him in the stomach with is horn. Cheese screamed in pain and fell limp on the ground. Party Favour laughed maniacally. Pinkie had turned to Pinkameana. "You no good," she punched him in the chest, "backstabbing," she threw him to a wall, "horrible monster!!!". Party Favor closed his eyes, expecting his doom, only to see Pinkie race to Cheese's body. "This is my chance" he thought. Cheese opened his eyes just in time to see Party Favor charge an energy beam. "Pinkie watch out!!!!". Pinkie just turned around in time to see the massive blast. She stood there, taking the hit. She groaned in pain but stood still shielding her lover. "Pinkie... Move out the way, he wants me" groaned Cheese. Pinkie looked back at him. "I don't care if I die!!! As long as you live!!!" she yelled. Cheese leaped in front of Pinkie and pushed her back. Party Favor chuckled evilly, "Right were I need you!!". Tears welled in Pinkie's eyes. "Why would you do this..." she sobbed looking sadly at Party Favor. Party Favor paused for a moment and looked at the two and panted, "What have I done...". He muttered something, then teleported away into the unknown. Cheese turned around to look at his marefriend. She was unconscious. He picked her up, but suddenly fainted. > So sorry.. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gala pony amour has been cancelled.... Sorry.
