Hiya! Welcome to the world of Hunters. I'm Pinkie Pie, but most folks call me Pinkie. You can too!

"Um, Pinkie? Who're you talking to?" Twilight asked.

"And why did you say 'Twilight asked?'" she asked.

"Because I'm the narrator," I said.

Twilight sighed before turning around to go to the bathroom, mumbling to herself about 'Crazy, pink-haired weirdos.'

"Pinkie, cut it out!" she yelled, slamming the door after I said 'she yelled.'

Now… what was I saying again? Oh yeah!

Hunters is full of monsters, magic, and all sorts of neat-o stuff that starts with 'm.' Marbles, music, mint ice cream, microscopic organisms, mashed potatoes, mulberry pies, marzipan cakes, mascarpone cheese, meringue…

Whoops! Sorry, I got distracted. And I haven't had a snack in, uh, ten minutes so I'm kind of hungry. I mean, it's really hard to stay focused when your tummy's yelling "Feed me Pinkie! Feed me now!"

Oh! Before I forget, let me introduce you to the rest of my friends!

"This is AJ. Say 'hi,' AJ!"

"Ah beg yer pardon?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.

Shy is sitting right next to her. She's AJ's partner, but she doesn't talk a lot, I'd ask her to say hi, but she's blushing like sunburned chili pepper right now.

"Next up are Soarin' and Dashie. Say hi to the reader, guys!

"Hi to the reader, guys!" they said, grinning and snickering.

"Flashie's on the patio, so we'll have to go outside. Hold on just a sec… Hehe, I love the little bell above the door. Hi Flashie!"

All he did was roll his eyes, and groan. And now he's shaking his head. And now he's banging it against the table. Now I think he's pretending to be asleep so I'll leave him alone. He has a dark and terrible secret that you will learn immediately after I'm done!

He's nodding, with his face still on the table. I'll bring him his milkshake later.

"Big Mac and Snapple like eating outside too. Don't tell him I called him Snapple, okay? His real name's Quick Snap, but he gets seriously embarrassed when I use his nickname. He just looks so cute when he blushes."

"Wait, why is my nickname Snapple?" he asked around a mouthful of muffin.

"Big Mac is kinda like Shy; he doesn't talk much, either. But that's okay, I can do the talking for him! He's AJ's big brother, works on a farm, has a cute little mole on his left-"

"Nnope!" he said, covering my mouth with his hand.

Oh, I'm thinking things out loud now. Kind of hard to talk with Big Mac's hand on my face. I mean, I could, but it'd be all "Mmf mmmhhhmm mmm m mmhm. Hmhm" in chapter five. See? I just said something important, but you couldn't understand me, could ya?

Well, thanks for letting me show you around! Hope you have fun! I'm gonna go get some cookies. And cake. And maybe muffins, pie, eclairs, and-

Hey! Why're you still reading this? A legend is about to unfold! A world of dreams and adventures is just about to start!

So turn the page and read the story, you silly-billy!
