This is my first fanfic. The idea for this came to me randomly at eleven thirty at night a while back. I just remembered it, and put it into writing. I hope that you like it.

And just as a note, I much prefer Pinkiecord to Fluttercord.

My name is Pinkamena Diane Pie, or at least it was. I used to live in Ponyville, but that was before The Return, as Fluttershy says. Everyone else just refer to it as "the day that Discord doomed us all for eternity and stole our best friend away forever and destroyed the Elements of Harmony so that they can never be used again." I also used to go by Pinkie (Pie), but now it is Pinkamena. Pinkamena Diane Draconicus. I was forced to marry Discord about a year ago. Or it could have been three weeks. Time just sort of blends together now that I'm a prisoner of this stone prison. Now I know that this must all be very confusing, so just let me explain. Here is my story:

It is Friday. October. The thirteenth day of that month. Twilight said that she has a bad feeling about today, but I don't think it can be that bad. My Pinkie sense would have told me otherwise. I am darting about town, trying to reach Applejack's before the storm hits Ponyville. She'll need help fixing the leak in the barn house roof so that her bedroom isn't soaked by tomorrow morning.

Thunder rumbles overhead, and I race faster towards Sweet Apple Acres, A.J.'s home. I feel a drop of something on my nose. I shut my eyes and run for all I'm worth. I feel another drop, then another. "I'm coming Applejack," I yell. "Hang on!"

I reach Applejack's home, and open my eyes so that I can see. I knock urgently on the door. With my muzzle like a bird. That's when I see the puddles, and the clouds. I stick out one of my hooves. Several brown drops land on my hoof. I lick them off. "Chocolate milk," I mutter. "Should have known. And those clouds are cotton candy, if I were to guess." I knock again. The door flies open, causing me to fall forward. Apple Bloom is standing in the doorway. "Where's Applejack?" I ask.

"Oh Pinkie," Apple Bloom cries, tears brimming in her eyes. "Applejack is gone."

I quickly push past my fourth cousin twice removed, then tug her inside, shutting the door behind us. Once we are alone, I turn to AB and ask, "Ok. What happened?"

Apple Bloom sniffles, then answers, "AJ was helping Bic Mac bring in the apples before the storm hit. When Big Mac came in, Applejack wasn't with him. He said that he thought that she was in her with me and Granny Smith. But she wasn't. Then this appeared."

She hands me a note, written in magazine lettering. It reads, I have Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and let's not forget that delightful princess, Twilight Sparkle. If you want them back, surrender the Elements of Harmony to the edge of the Everfree Forest by three o'clock this afternoon. "Where did this come from?" I ask once I'm finished reading.

"It appeared on the mantel once we noticed AJ was gone," Apple Bloom says. Tears resurface in her eyes.

I pat Apple Bloom on the shoulder. "I'll do my best," I say. "I really will."

Sorry that part of my story didn't copy for some reason. This is the revised copy. Enjoy.
