Apple the Bloom
Chapter 5: Apple the Bloom and Pinkie Too
Previous Chapter Next ChapterWell in this next chapter, there's a great deal of bouncing! "There is? Oh, I think that I just remembered something that ah forgot to do yesterday, and can't be able to do tomorrow, so I suppose ah really ought to go back and do it now. Good bye, Bloom!" Fluttershy said, as she ran off.
"Goodbye, Fluttershy! Now is the next chapter all about me?" Bloom asked me, the narrator. No, no, it's mostly about Pinkie Pie! "Oh, bother." But you're in it! "Oh good. What will ah be doin?" Well, Apple Bloom you'll be sitting in your thoughtful spot, thinking as usual. "Think, think, think." she thought, and while she was thining, all the sudden....
"Hello, Bloom! I'm Pinkie Pie! P-in-K-double E! And that spells Pinkie!" Pinkie said as she bounces on Apple Bloom.
"I know." Apple Bloom giggled. "You've bounced me before!"
"I did? Oh, yes, I recall you now! You're the one with the blank flank!" Pinkie said.
"And you're sittin on it." Bloom added.
"Yeah, and it's comfee too. Woo hoo hoo hoo! Well, I've got to go now! I've got alot of bouncing to do!" Pinkie said, shaking Apple Bloom's hoof. "Woo hoo hoo hoo! T-T-F-N! Ta-ta for now!" Well there goes Pinkie Pie, always bouncing in on his friends, who may least expect him. His next pray was none other than Fluttershy, who was sweeping the front of her and Apple Bloom's house. "Hello, Fluttershy! I'm Pinkie Pie!"
"Oh Pinkie! You s-s-scared me!" Flutters said, all frightened.
"Oh shucks, it was just one of my little pounces!" Pinkie giggled.
"It was? Oh thank you, Pinkie!" Flutters smiled, feeling relieved.
"Oh yeah, I'm saving my best pounce for the long ears! Woo hoo hoo hoo! Ta ta!" Pinkie said, as she bounces off to Angel's house, who was harvesting some tomatoes from his garden, and humming to himself
"There. That should.... oh no! NO!" Angel yelled as Pinkie bounces him, squashing some of his veggies.
"Hello, Angel! I'm Pinkie Pie!" she said. "P-in-G...."
"Oh please, please, don't spell it!" Angel begged, as he pushed Pinkie off him. "Oh, dear, oh dear, j-just look at my beautiful garden!"
"Yuck! Messy, isn't it?" Pinkie asked.
"Messy? MESSY?! It's ruined!" Angel yelled. "It's ruined Pinkie! Oh, why don't you ever stop bouncing?"
"Why? That's what Pinkies do best! Woo hoo hoo hoo!" Pinkie said as she continued pouncing, and singing her theme song. "The wonderful thing about Pinkies, is Pinkies are wonderful things! Their tops are made out of rubber! Their bottoms are made out of springs! They're bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy, fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN! But the most wonderful thing about Pinkies is, I'm the only one! I'm the only one!" she growled as she bounced off out of sight. Angel couldn't take anymore of Pinkie's obsessed bouncing, so despite times, call for despite measures. Angel calls up Apple the Bloom and Fluttershy in a meeting at his house, and try to think of a plan to stop Pinkie from bouncing.
"Order! Order please!" Angel calls out, pounding a spoon on the table to get Apple Bloom and Fluttershy's attention. "Now I say Pinkie's getting so bouncy noadays, that it's time we taught him a lesson! Now matter how much we like him!" Apple Bloom gives out a big yawn in boredum. "He.... just bounces too much!"
"Er, excuse me Angel? But perhaps if we could think of a way of an unbouncing Pinkie, it would be a very good idea, huh?" Fluttershy suggested.
"Exactly!" Angel said. "Just what I.... what do you feel Bloom?" Apple Bloom was fast asleep on Angel's chair. Angel just smirks at Bloom.
"Bloom! Haven't you been listening to what Angel's been saying?" Flutters asked, trying to wake Bloom up.
"Oh, uhh... ah listened. It's just.... ah had a mall piece of fluff in mah ear. Could ya say it again, please Angel?" Bloom asked.
"Well, where should I start from?" Angel asked.
"From the moment the fluff got in mah ear." Bloom said.
"When was that?" Angel asked.
"Ah don't know. Ah couldn't hear properly." Bloom said.
"Bloom, we were just trying to think of a way to get the bounce out of Pinkie." Flutters said.
"Ah ha! I've got a splendid idea! Now listen, we'll take Pinkie for a long exploration some places where he's never been, and we lose him there!" Angel explained, as Bloom fell asleep again, but she awakes to when Angel said 'lose him'.
"Lose him?" Bloom asked.
"Oh we'll find him again the next morning, and mark my words, she'll be a humble Pinkie! A small and sad Pinkie." Angel explained. "And 'oh Angel, am I glad to see you' Pinkie; and it'll take the bounces out of him. That's why. Now all in favor, say 'aye'!"
"Aye!" Flutters yelled, but Bloom didn't say anything because she went back to sleep. "Bloom? Bloom!" Flutters tried to wake Bloom up.
"Oh, here!" Bloom called out.
"Good, just good!" Angel said mischievously. So it was agreed that they would start the next morning, which incidentally turned out to be cold and misty. Bloom, as usual, had a little something along to sustin herself. Now as Pinkie kept bouncing farther and farther into the mist, Angel thought it was a good time to lose Pinkie.
"Here's our chance! Quick over here! Hide!" Angel yelled, as he hid himself inside a log. Apple Bloom slowly followed him inside, and Fluttershy ran, but accidentally hits Apple Bloom from behind and falls over. She regains her balance and runs inside the log.
"Pinkie's lost now, isn't she Angel?" Fluttershy asked.
"Oh he is lost all right, Fluttershy!" Angel chuckled.
"Oh goody, this is.... of funful!" Flutters said.
Angel peeked out of the log to search if the coast is clear. "My splendid idea worked! Now home we go!" he said.
"Good! Yum yum, it's time for lunch!" Bloom said as she walked out of the log.
"Helloooooo?" Pinkie called out.
"Oh my goodness! Hide!" Angel panicked, as he pulled Bloom back inside the log.
"Helloooooo?" Pinkie called out again, and Angel had to make sure Apple Bloom and Fluttershy were nice and quiet. "That's funny. We must be lost!" Pinkie saw a small hole on top of the log, and shouted inside; "Hellooooo?!" Her hello was loud, and it hurt their ears, but she hasn't noticed that they're inside. "Hey you blokes, where are you?!"
Apple Bloom was about to respond, but Angel covered her mouth before she could say anything, and he shushed her. "Ah am shushed!" Bloom whispered to Angel.
"Hey! Where in the hay are you guys?!" Pinkie yelled as her tail gets stuck on the log. Pinkie tried to get it out, but when Pinkie wasn't looking, Angel gently removes the tail from the log, but Pinkie hasn't noticed, and pulled her tail anyway, and lost her balanced and fell. She got back up, and she trotted back deeper into the forest. "Angel?! Fluttershy?! Where are you?! Hellooooo?!"
Angel peeked out to see if the close was clear, and it was. She crawled out and said; "Hooray! Horray we got it! Now come on, hurry! Let's head for home." Apple Bloom and Fluttershy followed him deeper into the forest, and try to find a way out. Well, Angel was certain that everything was going to plan, and so it seemed to be, but sometime later, they found out they were going in circles. "It's a funny thing.... e-everything looks the s-same.... in the mist." he said.
"He's right, Fluttershy! It's the very same sandpit." Bloom whispered.
"I think so too, Bloom." Flutters whispered back.
"Well, it's lucky I know the forest so well, o-or.... we, we make it lost. Come on, follow me." Angel said, as they all started hiking again. Now Apple Bloom was getting tired of seeing the same sand pit, and he suspected it if following them about, because whichever direction they started in, they always seemed to end up at it.
"Uhh, Angel?" Bloom called.
"Yes?" Angel asked.
"Say Angel.... how would it be if as soon as we are out of sight of this old pit, we just find it again?" Bloom asked.
"Wha-wha-what makes you th-think that?" Angel stuttered.
"Well, you see, we keep lookin for home, but we keep findin this pit, so ah..... that if we look for this pit we might find home." Bloom explained.
"I don't see much sense in that. If I want.... this pit.... of course I should find it! I'll prove it for you! Wait here!" Angel demanded. Angel hopped off into the mist, and Apple Bloom and Fluttershy just sat in the pit, waiting for Angel to return. They waited, and they waited, and waited, and all awhile, Bloom's thoughts kept returning to her apple pots at home. Fluttershy gets startled of Apple Bloom's stomach.
"Wh-wh-what was that, Bloom?" Flutters asked.
"Mah tummy rumbled." Bloom giggled. "Now then, come on, let's go home."
"But Bloom! Do you know the way?" Flutters asked.
"No Fluttershy, but there are 12 pots of apple jam in mah cupboard, and they have been callin to mah tummy." Bloom explained.
"They have?" Flutters asked.
"Yes, Fluttershy. Ah couldn't hear them before, because Angel went talk. Ah think ah know they're callin from so come on! We'll just follow mah tummy." Bloom said. They walked off together and for a long time, Fluttershy said nothing, so as not to interrupt Bloom's apple pots; and sure enough, as the mist got thinner, and just when Fluttershy began to know where she was....
"Hello there, you two blokes! Where have you been?" Pinkie asked, as she bounces on Apple Bloom and Flutters.
"We've been tryin to find out our way back home." Bloom said.
"Bloom, I don't think Angel's splendid idea worked." Flutters said.
"Hey, where is the long eared, anyway?" Pinkie asked.
"He must still be missing in the mist." Bloom said.
"Well, leave it to me! I'll bounce 'em out of there! T-T-F-N! Ta-ta for now! Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!" Pinkie said, as she bounced back into the forest to go look for Angel. Meanwhile, Angel was still wandering around in the mist. By now he was lost and bewildered; and to make matters worse, his mind was beginning to play tricks on him. Angel was scared of the frog croaking up ahead, and the caterpillar eating a leaf on a tree. The crunching sounds and the croaking scared Angel half to death. "Apple Bloom?! Fluttershy?! HELP!" Angel cried. Angel started running away, but before he could run far, he gets bounced on by Pinkie.
"Hello Angel!" Pinkie said.
"Pinkie! B-but you're suppose to be lot!" Angel said.
"Ah, Pinkies never get lost, bunny boy!" Pinkie giggled.
"Never.... get..... lost?" Angel asked sadly.
"Of course not, silly!" Pinkie said.
"Come on, Angel! Let's go home! Hang on!" Pinkie said, as Angel grabbed her tail and bounced him out of the woods, and Angel was now a humiliated rabbit; a lost and found rabbit; and a 'oh why oh why do these things happen to me' rabbit!

I barely remembered this chapter when I was a kid. The video I had only had the Honey Tree, Blustery Day, then the Eeyore one, but this Tigger one wasn't in it.
