"I..." You started, trying to explain it to Dash.

"SHUT UP."

"I didn't kiss her! She kissed me!"

"Either way, I can't believe it!" She pushed by you and out the door, with a loud knock on Pinkie's door. Being the person you are, you put your ear to the wall to listen.

"Hiya Dashie!"

"Don't freakin' call me that, Pinkamena." Dash responded.

"Wha-What?"

"I can't believe you just waltzed into our dorm and made-out with the guy who romantically kissed me last night!"

"I'm... I'm sorry Dashie."

"I'm Rainbow to you!" That sentence hit the wall, and basically made your ear burn. But you kept listening, "I can't process this! I thought you were one of my friends."

There was a faded squeak, and a whimper, "We... We are friends."

"Not anymore!" Dash stomped out of there, and back to the room, "And you!"

"Me?" You didn't want it to be you.

"Yes, you! Why'd you let her kiss you? Just push her away or something!" She said as a gray-pink figure slowly slumped to the doorway.

The person had long, straight hair. It was pink, but gray at the same time. Her skin was pale, with a hint of gray. Her dress was hanging straight down like her hair, a gray jacket overlapping the top of the dress. On the bottom on the dress there was three popped balloons. She kind of reminded you of Pinkie.

"D-Dashie..." She said, making Dash spin around.

"NO, PINKIE!" P-P-Pinkie?!

"Dash, that isn't Pinkie. It looks nothing like her." You were wrong.

"I am Pinkie... Full name Pinkamena Diane Pie." She said, sadly.

"But... The balloons on your dress are popped... Your hair is straight..." You were extremely surprised at the 'new' Pinkie.

"Dashie... You really don't want to be my friend anymore?" She pouted.

"Duh!"

Pinkie burst into tears, falling to the ground, "B-but Dashie!"

"Go cry to your parties." Dash crawled onto her bed, closing her eyes.

"Pinkie?" You whispered.

"What do you want...?" She looked up to you, her once glowing blue eyes now a dark gray, "You probably don't like me either..."

"Pinkie, I am still your friend. But we need to have a talk about that Truth or Dare game." You reached down and helped Pinkie up, but she slouched over and walked very slowly as you entered her room.

"What about the Truth or Dare game?" She flopped down onto her floor.

"You know when Dash asked me who I would date? They had to be in the game at the moment."

"Y-Yes... And you chose me."

"But I really like Dash. I couldn't tell her though. I'm sorry, Pinkie..." You dropped your eyes, "I didn't know what to do."

"It's alright... But... Do you still like me?"

"Yes Pinkie. You are a very bubbly girl. But not right now... Please be Pinkie again..." You pleaded, missing the happy Pinkie.

"I just lost a friend. I don't know if I can." She looked at the ground.

"Okay, Pinkie. Would gaining a friend cheer you up?" You thought about Octavia, maybe Pinkie didn't know her.

"No, I need everyone to be my friend."

"Be right back, Pinkie." You walked out the door, and knocked on Fluttershy's door.

"H-hello?" She opened the door slowly, "Oh. Hello."

"Can you go down to Pinkie's dorm? Pinkie's sad." You pointed to the pink coloured door down the hall.

"Sure." She slipped her feet into some bunny slippers and started down the hall. She was wearing fleece pajamas that were the colour of her eyes, which gave her a cute factor. Even more of a cute factor than before.

You then quickly ran over to Rarity and Applejack's door. They answered, well, AJ did. Rarity was applying makeup.

"Howdy! Watcha need?" She had her hair down, she probably just woke up or was just doing her hair.

"Pinkie's sad. I need you and Rarity to come down to Pinkie's dorm."

"Oh no. Pinkie, out of all people, is sad? That ain't good." She turned around and yelled at Rarity to finish up quickly or get up now.

"Applejack, I am doing my makeup." Rarity shouted.

"Pinkie's sad."

"I am coming!" She grabbed a white robe and put it on, covering up whatever she was trying to cover up, "What room is she in?"

"2A, just run over there. I have to get Twilight."

"A lady does not run." Rarity put her hair in a quick, but fashionable, ponytail. It wasn't curled yet, so she said it would do, "My robe might fall off."

"Yeah, wouldn't want anyone to see your pajamas. Wait, ya don't wear pajamas, ya wear your underclothing." AJ smirked, running to Pinkie's dorm.

"Applejack!" Rarity blushed a crimson red.

"It's alright Rarity, but seriously. Go to her room and comfort her." You said as you wondered what room Twilight was in. The library!

The library was tall enough to take up both floors, the shelves reaching to the ceiling. There was a door to the library at the top and at the bottom, just the top door had a staircase leading down to a circle. In the middle of the library was a circle, with some tables. You entered the circle to see Twilight reading a romance novel. She heard you coming and looked over the book, blushing. She didn't want to throw the book, that would be destructible.

"Hey Twi." You said while reading the book title. Notes of Music... I've heard of that book.

"Hello, how are you today?" Twilight placed her book down, the cover facing upwards.

"I'm doing fi-" You cut yourself off, remembering Twilight at the party, "I am doing excellent. But Pinkie isn't."

"Is she sad?" I think Twilight's psychic..

"Yes..." You said, smiling.

"By Celestia that's rare. I'm coming right now." Twilight got up and started running up the stairs, you close behind. She got to the door, and being the gentleman you are, you opened it for her. I did this for somebody... I don't remember who, though.

"Thank you," She looked down the hall, "What room?"

"2A." That made her run straight to the room with the other four girls.

"Where's Dash?" She turned to you.

"She kinda caused this so... I didn't get her." You awkwardly said, hoping that Dash wasn't listening to the conversation like you did.

"Typical Dash." Twilight sat down beside Fluttershy, trying to help Pinkie, "Pinkie?"

"Hi Twilight..." Pinkie sadly said.

"Hi Pinkie." She smiled, trying to get Pinkie to do so. All she got was a frown.

"Pinkie darling, don't be so sad. It's Rainbow being Rainbow." Rarity held up one of Pinkie's outfits, it was one of her old ones so it was all puffy and neon, "And these outfits of yours are to die for!"

"Listen here, Pinks. We all love ya as a friend, and Dash was probably upset from somethin' happenin'." AJ held Pinkie's hands, trying to her mane to poof up like it usually is.

Fluttershy just stayed there, petting Pinkie's mane as if Pinkie was an inured animal. She occasionally whispered that it'll be alright.

"B-but... Applejack... I kissed her roommate..." Pinkie looked at you, blushing a shade of pink. Not red, pink. That caused Rarity to gasp.

"Even though he did take Braeburn's attention off me, everyone saw him make a move on Dash." Rarity hung up the outfit and looked back and forth between Pinkie and you.

"Why would ya be worried 'bout Braeburn payin' attention to ya?" Applejack turned towards Rarity.

"Because he is a gentleman that deserves a lady like mwah." Rarity flipped her ponytail to her other shoulder.

"Ah can't believe ya Rarity." AJ sighed, "Anyways, Pinks... Ya shouldn't be sad from Dash yellin' at ya because ya kissed her roommate."

"But she isn't my friend anymore." Pinkie said, as she looked at the door.

There were some footsteps, and Dash appeared at the door. Her eyes were red, and she wiped them a couple of times.

"Pinkie." She said. Everyone just stared at her.

"Y-yes Dashie?" This made Dash sigh at the nickname, but continued.

"Sorry. I just felt neglected." Dash looked back and forth, "I mean ignored."

"They mean the same thing, Rainbow." Twilight protested.

"But neglected sounds too smart." Dash helped Pinkie up and hugged her, making Pinkie smile a bit, "Fri-"

"YES!" Pinkie shouted before Dash could finish, her hair poofing up, her dress' bottom doing the same. The balloons mended themselves back together, and Pinkie's gray eyes turned back to a beautiful blue.

"Let me get this straight..." You said, confused, "When Pinkie's sad, her hair deflates and everything about her gets all sad and mopey?"

"Eeyup." AJ said.

"Yeppers!" Pinkie squeezed Dash tightly.

"Indeed." Rarity cut off Fluttershy, who was saying 'I think so'.

"I'll keep that in mind..." Note: Don't make Pinkie sad.
