> Cupcakes After The Fact > by Rainbow sparkle1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > the beginning > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After school was out, I went to go find rainbow dash. No pony has seen her in weeks after pinkie invited her over to bake something. I’ve got to admit, those cupcakes she made when rainbow disappeared were quite tasty, but they were very suspicious. Anyway, since I knew pinkie was the last pony to see her I went to go visit her. When I arived at sugarcube corner, I was greeted by a pink pony with a bouncy mane come bouncing towards me. “Oh hi scootaloo, I thought you were some pony else.” Hmm, that last bit she said was pretty suspicious, but there are more important things to do. “Hey pinkie, have you seen rainbow dash, I wanted to go flying with her this evening after school.” Pinkie just smiled. “oh that’s ok, here have this.” She presented me with a cupcake. “why are you giving me a cupcake?” I asked, “I didn’t order anything.” “Oh you didn’t, oh well just have it scootaloo, I made it myself.” After she said that, it made me think “why not, it’s just a cupcake” so then I put the tasty cupcake into my mouth. “Huh not too bad pinkie, now what?” “Now you take a nap.” Right after she said that, I felt light headed instantly, and feel to the ground. > in the basement > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- When i woke up, i found myself in shackles on a table, in an unknown area. All of a sudden, Pinkie bounced into view, wearing a dress with a lot of cutie marks all over it, including rainbow dash's. Plus a unicorn horn necklace, and many pairs of wings, one pair of wings looked like rainbow's. "Great you're awake, now we can get started!" the pink pony said. "Where are we pinkie?" i asked, adreneline now running through me. "Oh," she answered, "with a flip of this, that'll answer your question." She giggled, then flipped the switch. When my eyes adjusted to the light, i started to panic even more. I looked around the room, guts and bones everywhere. The thing that caught my eye the most, was the statue of a pony, wings and cutie mark missing, my heart sank when i saw it, it was rainbow dash. I fell into tears the instant i saw her, just lifeless. "Oh," the pink pony said when she noticed me crying, "i see you found dashie, i was super exited when she was here, though, she only lasted 50 minutes, not nearly how long i wanted her to last, i wanted her to last 2 hours, i should've taken it a little slower, oh well." Suddenly, we both heard hoof steps coming down from upstairs, the other crusaders had come to find me. "Scootaloo, are you in here?" apple bloom asked "I'm in here!" i called out to them, "hurry, you have to see this!" When they entered, their mouths fell open at the sight, me, the decorations, pinkie pie, and dash. "What in equestria happened in here!?" sweetie bell broke the silence after about 5 seconds, stunned. "No time to explain, hurry, get me out of here before pinkie kills me," I ushered them to stop pinkie pie before she shoved something in my mouth. "Shut up you little filly," she said after stuffing the thing in my mouth "Don't worry scootaloo," apple bloom said, trying to buck pinkie to unconsciousness, "we'll save you!" Then, she hit her target, and knocked pinkie unconscious "I'll use my magic to cut those shackles," sweetie bell said, igniting her horn and shooting a magic beam to the shackles that held me still, once they were cut, i slipped off the table and took the thing out of my mouth. "Thanks girls," i said to them, relived. "There's no time for thanks," apple bloom said, convincing, "we need to call the guards, and get you out of here." Me and sweetie bell agreed, and went upstairs to get the phone. As we did so, i happen to catch a glimpse of pinkie, still lying in the corner of the room, leg now starting to twitch. > back upstairs > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Once we got upstairs, mrs. cake was looking at us with worried eyes. "Oh dearie, what was going on down there?" she asked me. "There's no time to explain," i answered "you need to get out of here, pinkie pie is insane!" "But that's not like her, i thought..." she said before pinkie sliced her neck and let her fall to the ground. "AHHHHHHH!!!!!!" sweetie bell screamed at the sight, then told us we needed to find the phone now. We both agreed, and started to run towards the phone. A few seconds passed and we heard the insane pony start to approach us. "You can't escape me." she said, crazily "You call scootaloo," apple bloom said, "we'll keep her back as long as we can." I wanted somepony else to call, but i was the main victim, so i had to. I went over to the phone as quickly as i could, and called the guards. Once i had finished calling them however, pinkie had knocked the others out of her way and was now approaching me. "Well then, do you want to do this the hard way, then we'll do this the hard way," she said with a smirk while approaching me. The other crusaders then ran up to me and huddled together, hoping for the best. Suddenly, the front of sugarcube corner burst open, and a group of royal guards came over to pinkie and took her off us. What a realiff. "Are you ok little fillies?" one guard asked us. "Yes," apple bloom answered. "Good," another guard responded, "we'll take care of pinkie and investigate the rest of this place." "It be better if you looked downstairs," i told them. "Ok," a third guard responded. Right after they left and more guards came inside, and went downstairs to investigate the terrible sight, right after that we left the building immediately. Ponies from all over ponyville never came back to that place ever again. > after the fact > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- A while had passed from the incident, and sugarcube corner has been abandoned and left in ruins. Pinkie has committed crime for all the killed ponies in the basement of sugarcube corner. All of the killed ponies, including rainbow dash, had funerals to honor their death. Of course i cried the most at rainbow's. The other crusaders and I were considered the heroes of ponyville for saving all the future ponies who's numbers were probably going to come up only if pinkie had continued the killing spree. Princess twilight had found new ponies for the elements of loyalty and laughter, their names were bon bon and vinal scratch. Life has been good for everypony, me, and the other crusaders. Other than villains trying to take over equestria. I had found a new pony to take care of me since rainbow was killed, it happened to be the leader of the wonderbolts, spittfire. Nopony had heard from pinkie pie ever again. THE END.
