Load Full Story Next ChapterPinkie Pie bouced otu of her bed,
"Morning!" She shouted to herself, and went downstairs, Mr and Mrs. Cake weren't there usual,
"Oh well," Pinkie pie said, turning on stove, carefully she cracked an egg, and strted to cook it,
"I wonder what i'll today today," Pinky said,
"Maybe I'll bake some cupcakes!" Pinky pie jumped up and down in excitement,
"Maybe I'll prank rainbowdash!" PInky suggested to herself, the eggs were done soon, and she gobbled them up, and left sugarcube corner, there were no ponies outside, no ponies in wondows, just silence, Pinky Pie was starting to worry now,
"Rainbowdash!" She called out,
"Fluttershy? Rarity! AppleJack, Twilight! Are you here!" She shouted, her name dropped into pinkamena. Not even the sound of birds returned to her cries. Tears strted to fall onto the floor now, Pinky was shouting names of random ponies, nothing returned to her call, she started to run to a hill, it was easily scaled, Pinky PIe looked out, alot of Equtria could bee seen from here, she couldn't see anypony, or any animals. Only buildings. It was like she was the only one left in equestria,
"RAINBOWSDASHHH!" Pinky Pie shouted out, Nothing returned to her though. She looked up, at Cloudsdale, usuaully this sky city was full of pegasi. But alike Ponyville, it was deserted. Pinky Pie burst out into tears.
"No!" SHe suddenly bounced up, the bounce returning to her mane,
"When they come back! I will throw a party!" Pinky Pie leaped up, and down, and quickly set off, to prepare the town.
The town was decorated with streamers, ribbons and baloons. In sugarcube corner different cakes were set out, and seven different types of punch,
"This will be awsome!" Pinky Pie bounced up and down in the middle of town,
"RAINBOWDASH!" SHe called out, smiling, nothing returned to her,
"DASHIE!" She shouted out, returning to pinkamena.
For the next week, Pinky Pie had woken up to only silence, she had devoured much of the town's food, and was lonely. It was a sunday afternoon. She hadn't taken down any of the streamers, but many of the baloons had floated away. And she was lonely,
"Dashie!" She called out. There was no reply, she burts into tears, she hadn't noticed a trail of rainbow in the sky, suddenly a cyan pagasus came to her side,
"Pinky Pie!" Rainbowdash said, Pinky pie didn't reply with words, they both just hugged for a moment, then they came out of it, rainbowdash had her hoof around Pinky Pie's shoulders, The bounce returned to Pinky Pie's mane,
"So what happened Dashie!" Pinky Pie said, lying her head on Rainbowdash's shoulders,
"Well I woke up, but not in my cloudsdale mansion, in canterlot, no pony was there. I flew up, and then looked around me, the place seemed dead, so I strted to fly back home, then I thought I heard you, so came rushing over, and you were crying," Rainbowdash explained,
"You?"
"Well, I woke up, and i went ot make breakfast, Mr and Mrs Cake weren't in, then I went outside, and no pony was there. I looked on a hill, and equetria was like a dead country, then i thought 'when the ponies come back, they will have a party, so i decorated the the town," Pinky said, pointing to decorations,
"After week no pony came, I had consumed alot of Ponyville's food, and then I cried out for you, but there was no reply, and then I started crying, and thats when you came to my side," Pinky Pie said, givving Rainbowdash a squeeze,
"So uh...What now?" Rainbowdash said, her head hanging down,
"Well if you appeared in canterlot, and I appeared in ponyville, I guess we should check Manhatten," Pinkie pie suggested, for once not babbling,
"Sounds good," Rainbowdash said, getting up,
"But it might take a while on foot, and if there is any pony, I guess they would have moved on," Rainbowdash sighed, Pinkie pie gotonto her back, and waropped her hooves around Rainbowdahs's neck, Suprisingly light! Rainbowdash though to herself, and took off, she was still able to fly fast, despite pinki pie. Rainbowdash looked at Pinky pie, she smiled, then rainbowdash carried on.
Rainbowdash landed, just outside Manhatten. The city was empty, only a concrete jungle stood before them.
"We're gonna stick together right?" Pinky asked, looking at Rainbowdash's eyes,
"Yeah, of course Pink's," Rainbowdash replied.
After scanning the whole cty, they sat on a hill outside Manhatten. The sky was dark blue, and moonlight painted silver paths in places. Stars glitter across the sky, like sequins sewn onto a velvet blanket. Pinky Pie and Rainbow dash leaned agaist each other,
"Dahie, i'm starting to think we are the only ones left in equestria," Pinky pie saighed, digging her face into rainbowdahs's mane,
"It'll be okay Pinky, I promise," Rainbowdash said, as pinkie turned her head towards her, Pinky pie had a desperate look on her face, she was scared,
"I promise Pinky," Rainbow said, hugging her.

Twilightsparkle woke up, and rubbed her head, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pincess Celestia and Princess Luna. Twilight rose to her hooves, but thumped the ground as an intense pain went through her. The siund of her on the ground woke the others up,
"Wha?" Applejack grumbled, she brough herself to her four hooves,
"What happened?" Rarity asked, as she stood up, Fluttershy was standing, but didn't say a word, only Twilight had pain getting up,
"Y'all ah'right?" Applejack asked,
"Yes," rarity replied, Fluttershy nodded,
"Yes," Celestia said,
"We appear to be fine," Luna voice came, Twilight once again attempted to get up, she winced, but took the apin, and got to her hooves, the pain was still there though,
"Ya don't look so good twi!" Applejack said, rushng to her side, Rarity supported the other side, Applejack threw a thankful gesture at rarity, which she returned.
"I don't understand," Celestia said looking around. There were in a feild somewhere. The grass was soft, and rolling hills extened into the horizon.
"We're near the equestrian border," Celestia stated,
"H-How did we g-get here?" Fluttershy asked,
"We think we know why," Luna started,
"We were sealing the door to the royal archives, suddenly our magic backlashed on us, but the combination created a completely different spell," Luna explained, looking down, Celestia put her hoff around her,
"Its okay Luna, we should get back to canterlot, I can teleport us all, but Canterlot from here will take alot of magic," Celestia sai,d her horn starting to glow,
"You should know, that Luna is also of the same authority," Celstia finished her scentence, a bright light took all of then off their hooves, they were floating, suddenly light blinded them all.
They landed on the floor of the castle, Celestia was out,
"Okay," Said twilight, she stumbled down, put was picked up with Luna's magic, and placed her on her back, Twilight shot a thankful glance at Luna.

"Did you see that Dashie!" Pinkie Pie said, pointing to the large castle in canterlot,
"Yeah!" Rainbowdash replied, they both started to run the down the hill, towards canterlot,
"Maybe some pony returned!" Pinkie pie started to bounce along, somehow keeping the pace, rainbowdash started to run faster now.
They had ariived in canterlot, they barged into the catsle, and saw their friends, a knock out celestia, and Luna,
"Rainbow!" Twilight said, wanting to get up,
"Pinky pie too!" Rarity added, they hugged,
"Are you alright twilight?" Pinky PIe asked,
"Yep, Kinda," Twilight winced as she adjusted herself on Luna's back,
"Ah'm not quite sure whats 'appening," Applejack stated. Pinky Pie wasn't paying attension to what any pony was saying, she was thinking about Rainbowdash. Luna's horn lit up, suddenly there was a huge flash.
