Everyone, this is ANOTHER repost. Follows the same storyline. Although now, I'm thinking of making it into a part POV of somepony.
-Chapter 1: The Dream-
It was eight o'clock in the evening in the nice town of Ponyville. In one of the rooms of Sugarcube Corner, a pink pony was getting ready for bed.
Pinkie Pie took her toothbrush and her toothpaste from the bathroom sink. She squeezed some jellybean toothpaste on her pink toothbrush, and then she brushed her teeth.
After about three minutes, Pinkie Pie rinsed her mouth. She gargled some water in a glass placed at the side of the sink, then spit it out. After that, Pinkie Pie trotted out of the bathroom.
Pinkie Pie went across the hall to her bedroom. She put on her pajamas and slid in her bed. After a short moment, Pinkie Pie was already snoozing.

Pinkie Pie squinted her eyes. She opened them slowly and yawned. She stretched her forehooves and got up. She surveyed her surroundings carefully, and realized she was not in her bedroom anymore. Wherever she was, this place gave her a slight feeling of nostalgia.
Suddenly, it hit her. She knew this place! She didn't recognize it as first, but now she did!
It was the rock farm!
It was the very same place she had been raised as a filly. The place she used to call her home. The place she left almost ten years ago.
Out of a slight curiosity, she began to explore the place. She trotted up to the shed. It looked better than before now. Next, she went to the part where they 'farmed' the rocks. The fields E and B were expanded. The field A had more rocks than before. Lastly, she went by the hut she slept in ten years ago. The roof and the walls were replaced with a much stronger material. And it was also bigger than before.
But, to Pinkie Pie, despite of what she saw, she knew there was still something that didn't change. It was the atmosphere.
It was just the same like before, sad and gloomy.
Suddenly, Pinkie's ears caught a sound. A sound that sounded like a pony crying. Pinkie followed the sound back to the shed. Pinkie opened the door slowly, revealing a dark shed. Pinkie's hooves searched for the light switch. Then, she felt a button, so she pressed it. A light suddenly illuminated the room.
Pinkie scanned the shed, trying to find the source of the sound. Then, she saw, at the end of the large room, a pony with a baby pink coat and a fuchsia pink mane. The pony had her back to her, and thus, Pinkie couldn't see the pony's face.
Pinkie slowly approached them pony. The pony, who had sensed that someone was behind her, turned her head around.
Pinkie was shocked at what she saw. This pony looked just like her, except for the straight mane and tail. Although she didn't know when, she felt like she had seen this pony before.
Despite the nostalgia, Pinkie just grinned. "Yay! I have a lookalike! This calls for a party with extra pink streamers!" Pinkie screamed. The other pony just turned back again.
Pinkie asked, "What's wrong? Why're you crying?" The pony stared at her with a pair of baby blue eyes. Pinkie studied her eyes. They looked exactly like her own, except that pony's had a hint of sadness, hurt, envy, and gloom. A greater feeling of nostalgia overcame her.
"Why?! Why does it all have to be like this?! Why?!" The pony yelled, crying even harder. "What do you mean?" Pinkie asked. "Do you need a chimicherry or what?!" The pony's tears were uncontrollable now. "For ten years, I never had any freedom! It was always you, you, YOU! You got all the freedom! You had many friends! You were loved by all ponies! But, why?! Why you?! Why can't I be loved?! Why do ponies never accept the real me?! Just why?!" The pony yelled extremely loud. A strong wind started to blow into the shed. "I…want to be loved as well! I want to have friends! But, ponies never give me a chance! It's always you! ALWAYS! I even had to endure being locked up for ten years! While you…you…" the pony's voice faded away as the strong wind surrounded her. Pinkie Pie yelled, "What are you saying? And who the cupcake are you?" The pony stared at her again. She spoke, now very softly, "You don't know who I am? Well, I can't believe my other half would forget about me. My name is…" a bright light began to surround the pony as she said her three final words. "…Pinkamena Diane Pie."
Then, the light completely engulfed her. Pinkie Pie closed her eyes, for the light was so bright. After the light faded away, the other pony was gone. All that was left in her place was a white envelope. Pinkie picked it up. She stared at it for a full minute. Now, she knew who and where she had seen that pony. She was so foolish not to realize. It was herself from the past. Right before she had been known as Pinkie Pie, the eccentric party pony, she was known as Pinkamena Diane Pie, the sad and gloomy farmer of rocks, the second eldest of the Pie sisters.
Then, the world started to fade away.

Pinkie Pie bolted awake, nearly falling off her bed. She breathed heavily for a short period of time. She was relieved that she was still in her room. She decided to lie back down.
As she lay down on her pillow, she felt something under it. She lifted up her pillow to see what was under it. She knew it couldn't have been the tooth fairy, because she was 16 and she never lost a tooth.
Under her pillow, she saw a white envelope. The same one that was left by Pinkamena Diane Pie. She picked up the envelope and opened it. Inside there was a folded piece of paper. She took it, then unfolded it. She read it silently. Here's what it said:
Dear Pinkie Pie or whatever you call yourself,
I am Pinkamena Diane Pie, the second eldest of the Pie sisters, not to mention, your true self.
I just wish to know one thing. Why is it that ponies everywhere like you? Why can they not like me when I take your place? Why? I would really like to know why.
You left home ten years ago. I can't even explain how excited I was to make friends. But, I never got the chance. I was sealed inside you. And, very seldom, when I was present, nopony talked to me.
I can't take it anymore. I want to experience friendship as well. Don't you know that I have feelings too?
In three days, be prepared.
Very sincerely,
Pinkamena Diane Pie
Pinkie Pie was left staring at the letter for a short period of time. She could feel her pain. She couldn't even imagine not having her friends to hang out with. But, what did she mean by 'be prepared'? Be prepared for what?
Pinkie yawned. She rubbed her eyes. She'd solve thisn puzzle tomorrow. For now, she just put the letter on her bedside table and lay down on her bed again. After what seemed like four minutes, she fell into a blissful sleep.

Sorry about the slight personality changes. Sorry for wrong grammar and spelling. This is my first MLP fanfic after all. I hope you were satisfied with the first chapter.

*Rrriiiiiiinggg*
Pinkie Pie opened her eyes. She shut off the alarm clock and got out of bed. Just then, she heard a knock on her door.
"Pinkie Pie?" a voice called out. It was Mrs. Cup Cake. "Yes, Mrs. Cake?" she asked. "Are you ready to go to the park? Twilight is waiting for you downstairs." Mrs. Cake replied.
Confusion struck Pinkie Pie. But, when she looked at the calendar, it was all gone. "OH MY CUPCAKE! IT'S SATURDAY! I'M SUPPOSED TO GO ON A PICNIC WITH THE OTHERS! AND I'M NEARLY LATE!" Pinkie screamed. She hurriedly went out the door and across the hallway to the bathroom. She nearly toppled Mrs. Cake.
After having a shower, Pinkie dashed out of the bathroom and into her room. She took a towel and dried her mane and body. Then, she took a hairbrush from her dresser and brushed her mane hurriedly. After that, she took her saddlebag and secured it. Once she was sure it was secured, she headed downstairs.
When she got downstairs, she saw Twilight Sparkle and Spike sitting on the couch. Twilight was carrying the picnic basket.
Twilight looked up and saw Pinkie Pie. She smiled at her pink friend. "Hey there, Pinkie! Are you ready to go to the park? The others are waiting." Twilight greeted. "Absolutely," said Pinkie as she trotted to the door. Twilight followed closely, with Spike on her back. The two pony friends trotted their way towards Ponyville Park.
It took them about ten minutes to reach their destination. Ponyville Park looked beautiful today. The leaves in the trees and the grass were a beautiful green. Colorful flowers also bloomed everywhere. The fountain made the scenery look even prettier.
It didn't take long for Twilight and Pinkie to find their friends. They saw them a few meters away, all of them lying on a red and white checkered blanket.
Rarity looked up from the sandwich she had been eating. She saw Pinkie and Twilight about four meters away. "Hello there, darlings! Beautiful day for a picnic, right?" Rarity greeted as the two ponies approached her. The others also looked up. Applejack said, "Howdy there, y'all! C'mon an' join our picnic! Ah got some cider here!" "Oooh! Cider! Yum!" Pinkie said, quickly taking a cup and drinking some cider. "Would you like something to eat, Pinkie Pie?" Rainbow asked. "Sure! I'll take some cupcakes with hot sauce and pepper sprinkles!" Pinkie answered in delight. "Uh…sure." Rainbow Dash answered, slightly annoyed. But, who could blame Pinkie? She was the weirdest of the group.
After about fifteen minutes of complete silence, Pinkie spoke up, "Okay, everypony! This silence is driving me and my cupcakes crazy! Let's talk!" "Okay, darling. You choose the topic." Rarity said. "Hmm…" Pinkie tried to make her decision. "Why don't we talk about the Wonderbolts, Sonic Rainbooms, thunder bolts, and lots of other cool stuff!" Rainbow suggested. "Definitely not! Why don't we talk about dresses, fashion, glamour, high society, and more things fit for a pony like me!" Rarity suggested.
The next five minutes were spent by looking at Rainbow Dash and Rarity fighting over what to talk about. Fluttershy tried to calm them down. "Umm…Rainbow, can you perhaps…umm…er, Rarity? Would you please…?" Fluttershy said meekly. "Okay, you Mrs. Perfect! I say we talk about cool stuff!" Rainbow Dash yelled. "Cool? You call that stuff cool? Those things are uncouth!" Rarity argued. Just then, a loud shout was heard.
"ENOUGH!" Fluttershy yelled, extremely loud. This caused Rarity and Rainbow to stop arguing. "STOP ARGUING OR I'LL GIVE YOU GUYS…THE STARE!" Fluttershy yelled, using 'the Stare' at the two arguing ponies.
"Woah, girls! Enough! Why don't we talk about…cutie mark stories!" Twilight suggested. This received a smile from all ponies. All ponies except Pinkie Pie, though. Pinkie Pie recalled the events in her dream and her past. She didn't want to tell her story, but she had to.
"Well, let's hear the story from the coolest pony in Equestria first. And that pony is…me!" Rainbow Dash said. Rainbow Dash explained about the ponies who bullied Fluttershy, how she had her first race and such. She explained how she did her first Sonic Rainboom and how she had won the race.
Next, it was Fluttershy's turn. She explained how she used to be a very, very weak flyer and how ponies used to tease her. She explained how she had fallen to the ground during the race and how she found out she could actually communicate with animals.
Next was Twilight. She explained how her parents enrolled her into Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. She also explained the entrance exam and how Princess Celestia made her as her very own student.
Rarity was next. She said all that happened. The part where she couldn't make the dresses better and the part where she had found the jewels and sewn them onto the dresses.
Applejack was second to the last. She explained how she left the farm to go to Manehattan, how she didn't fit in and felt very homesick. She also explained the part where she went back home and earned her cutie mark. The others couldn't even imagine her act like a city pony.
"Great story, Applejack. Pinkie, you're next." Twilight said.
Pinkie Pie just flashed her a blank look. "I'm next? Already?" she asked. "Yes, Pinkie." The others replied. Pinkie held a deep breath. True, the CMC already knew her story, but she doubted they would even believe her. So, basically nopony ever knew about her past. "What should I do? I can't lie to them. Wait! I'm not the Element of Honesty! Applejack is! But, why do I find it so difficult to lie to them?" Pinkie thought.
Pinkie made her decision. "Once upon a time, I threw my very first party. The end." Pinkie said. The others were slightly shocked. Pinkie never told a story like this. "Pinkie, why is it so short?" Rainbow asked. "That's right, Pinkie. Usually, you'd tell every detail." Fluttershy also said. "Well, that's everything. I don't have anything else to tell." Pinkie said. The others stared blankly at Pinkie for two whole minutes.
"What is it? Got somethin' on my face?" Pinkie asked. "No." Applejack responded. "Well, it's already sunset. I think I best get going." Pinkie said as she picked up her saddlebag. Unfortunately, she dropped it. Her stuff got scattered up. Pinkie just looked at the mess, slightly annoyed. She sighed and started picking up her things.
Twilight asked Pinkie if she could help. Pinkie nodded. So, the two mares started picking the things up. As Twilight was picking the things up, she came across a white envelope. "Pinkie Pie? What's this?" Twilight asked. Pinkie stared at the object Twilight was holding. "No way! It can't be…" Pinkie stopped midway sentence and grabbed the envelope from Twilight. She opened it to reveal a folded letter inside. "No, this can't be! This letter…is the same one I read last night!" Pinkie thought.
"What is it, Pinkie?" Twilight asked, coming to the pink pony's side. "Is there anything wrong?" she asked again. Pinkie didn't answer. She just stared at the letter. "PINKIE PIE!" Twilight yelled. Rainbow Dash tried shaking Pinkie Pie. Finally, Pinkie spoke, "This letter…is the same one I got last night! How did it get in my saddlebag?" "What are ya' talkin' about, sugarcube?" Applejack asked. Pinkie held a deep breath. "Perhaps I should tell them. They might be able to figure out what this letter means. My cupcake can't understand this." Pinkie thought.
Pinkie Pie told them about the dream she had last night. They got puzzled expressions. "Pinkie, I hope you don't mind me asking, but who's Pinkamena Diane Pie?" Rainbow asked.
To answer her question, Pinkie told them the whole story of her past life.
"Oh, now we get it!" Rarity said. "But, Pinkie, how will we know if you won't let us read it?" she asked again. Pinkie hesitantly gave her the envelope as she read it out loud.
Dear Pinkie Pie or whatever you call yourself,
I am Pinkamena Diane Pie, the second eldest of the Pie sisters, not to mention, your true self.
I just wish to know one thing. Why is it that ponies everywhere like you? Why can they not like me when I take your place? Why? I would really like to know why.

In three days, be prepared.
Very sincerely,
Pinkamena Diane Pie
"Be prepared? Pinkie, I don't understand this." Twilight said. "That's okay. I need to go now. It's already dark." Pinkie said. "We should all go now." Twilight added. They said goodbye to each other and started walking to their houses (Rainbow Dash flew to her house).
Pinkie reached Sugarcube Corner around seven o'clock. She walked inside the bakery, where she saw the Cakes eating supper on the dining table.
Mr. Carrot Cake greeted her. "Hey, Pinkie. You're just in time. Come here and have supper." He said. Pinkie cheerfully walked over to the table and ate her supper. She also ate her dessert, fifty cherrychangas with extra hot sauce.
After a good supper, Pinkie went upstairs to the bathroom. She brushed her teeth and had a shower. In fifteen minutes, a soaking wet Pinkie went across the hall to her bedroom. She dried her mane and slid into the covers of the bed. After a few minutes, Pinkie was sleeping sweetly and soundly.
