Ponyville Outskirts

Twilight was trying to use her magic to form an outfit for her dragon assistant. Spike's eyes were drifting.

"Eyes over here, Spike!" Twilight said.

"Uh, sorry." Spike said as he re-focused his attention.

"For this to work, it's crucial we keep our concentration totally on the"-

"Ooh!" Pinkie Pie cried out. Spike lost his attention and the top hat turned into a boulder and plopped on his head.

"Nyuh!" Spike shouted in pain.

"Spike! This magic needs our full attention to make it happen. There's no other way!" Twilight said as she reprimanded Spike's action.

"I can't help it. Look!" The two look over to see Pinkie Pie like she is watching for anything from the sky. She is also wearing some kind of umbrella hat.

"Ugh, never mind her. She's just being Pinkie Pie."

"Super-extra Pinkie Pie today." Pinkie Pie's tail then starts twitching.

"Hmm... Twitchy twitcha twitcha twitch." Pinkie Pie said.

"Pinkie Pie? What in the wide-wide-world of Equestria are you up to?" Twilight asked.

"Oh! It's my tail! It's my tail! It's a-twitch a-twitchin'! And you know what that means!" Pinkie Pie said as she showed her tail twitching for some unknown reason.

"Actually, Pinkie, I haven't the slightest idea." Twilight said as she moved Pinkie's tail away from her face.

"The twichin' means my Pinkie Sense is telling me that stuff's gonna start falling! You should better duck for cover."

"Oh, Pinkie, it's not gonna rain. Why there's barely even a cloud in the-ugh!" said Twilight just as a frog lands on her face.

[frog croaks]

"He just said, "nice catch" in Frog."

[frog croaks]

*Naruto Theme Song-Go!*

*Feeling Pinkie Keen*

"Spike, there you are!" Ginkaku said as he and Team Foxes arrive. "Um Twilight, you have something on your face."

"I know." Twilight said nonchalantly.

"Oh, I'm so, so sorry. You okay, Twilight Sparkle? I just couldn't stand to see the pond getting so over-populated, what with the frogs all hopping into each other and all, so I decided to fly as many as I can on over to Froggy Bottom Bog." Said Fluttershy as she had a wagon full of frogs.

"Of course you did."

[muffled] "Bye-bye!" Fluttershy then took the frogs and flew towards Froggy Bottom Bog. The frog then jumps off Twilight's face.

[Pinkie Pie skips away singing]

"C'mon, Spike, let's continue our practice session where there's a little less commotion." Said Twilight as she walked off.

"Wow! That was amazing! Pinkie Pie predicted something would fall, and it did!" Spike shouted out of excitement about Pinkie's ability.

"Really? Seems unusual, even for her." Naruto said.

"Oh, come on. She said that something would fall, and a frog just happened to fall right around the same time. A coincidence, nothing else to it." Said Twilight.

"My tail! My tail! Twitch-a-twitch! Twitch-a-twitch! Somethin' else is gonna fall!" shouted Pinkie Pie as her tail was twitching again.

"Oh, Pinkie, please. Nothing else is gonna FA-aaah!" said Twilight as she fell down into the ditch.

"Now, I can believe it." Naruto said.

"Oh no, Twilight fell! Is it... safe to go help her?" Spike asked the pink mare.

"It's okay, my tail stopped twitching." Said Pinkie Pie as she skipped away again.

"Ha ha! That was amazing."

"Oh, please." Said Twilight with an annoyed tone.

"Uh, Twilight? Why are you hanging out in a ditch?" asked Applejack.

"Because, Pinkie Pie predicted it!" yelled Spike.

"Honestly, Spike, she did not. Two coincidences in a row like this may be unlikely, but it's still easier to believe than twitchy tails that predict the future." Twilight said as she came out of the ditch.

[gasp] "Twitchy tail? Pinkie Sense? Woah! Nyu-uh!" Applejack said nervously as she quickly ducked under a cart.

"Don't worry, it's safe. Prediction already came true." Said Spike as he assured Applejack that Pinkie stopped twitching.

"Oh, wait. Don't tell me you believe in this stuff, too?"

"I know it doesn't make much sense, but those of us who have been in Ponyville a while, have learned over time that, if Pinkie's-a-twichin', you better listen." Said Applejack. All of a sudden, Pinkie Pie reappears with a new sign.

"My ears are flopping! My ears are flopping!" Pinkie Pie shouted as her ears were flapping up and down.

"Nyuh! What does that mean?" Spike asked as he brought his hands near his face.

"I'll start a bath for you." Pinkie Pie said to Twilight. Team Foxes and Applejack then backed away from Twilight.

"Huh? [chuckles] A bath? This thing keeps on getting more ridiculous by the minute!" Suddenly, a cart came through and splashed mud on Twilight. Twilight then grumbles.

Twilight Sparkle: [grumble]

SugarCube Corner, Pinkie's Bathroom 1:10 P.M.

"Phhhhft." said Twilight as she blew soap away from the tub. Pinkie Pie then came in with some shampoo.

"Sooo, basically, it works like this: I get different, little, niggling feelings and they mean different things. Like when my back is itchy, it means it's my lucky day. And, when my knee gets pinchy, that means something scary's about to happen." Said Twilight as she showed other signs.

"Is your knee pinchy now?" asked Twilight.

"No, but my shoulder's achy. That means there's an alligator in the tub." Pinkie reached into the tub and pulled out a little alligator. Twilight then jumped out of the tub while also covering herself.

"Yahh! How come your knee didn't get pinchy? That isn't just scary, it's downright dangerous!"

"No it's not, silly! This is my pet alligator, Gummy. He's got no teeth. See? Haha!" The alligator then tried to bite Pinkie Pie to no avail.

"Okay, okay... I get it."

Ponyville Outskirts 1:15 P.M.

"Well, I still don't believe all this... "special power" stuff. It's just a bunch of mumbo-jumbo." Said Twilight as they walked out of SugarCube Corner.

"What's not to believe? You do magic, what's the difference?"

"Huge!" Suddenly, she steps onto a box. "For one thing, [clears throat] magic is something you study and practice. It only happens when you decide to do it, and it's meant to make something specific that you choose to happen, happen. With you, uh, it makes no sense at all!"

"That's so not true Twilight! Sometimes it's a bunch of random things happening to my body at random times that supposedly predict the future. I call 'em "combos"."

"Combos?" Twilight asked as she got off the box.

"Sure! You know, like, ear flop, then knee twitch, then eye flutter. That means the sky is about to be graced with a beautiful rainbow!"

"Yeah, sure."

"Uh oh, I feel a combo coming on. Ear flop, eye flutter, knee twitch!" Before Twilight can open the door to the library, it slams into her face.

[crack]

"Ugh!" Spike and Ginkaku had books in their hands and were coming out of the library.

[beeping noises of a truck backing up]

"Ughhh... You said that combo meant 'beautiful rainbow'." Said Twilight as she tried to keep her consciousness.

"Oh no-no-no-no-no. You're thinking of an ear flop, then knee twitch, then eye flutter. This was an ear flop, then eye flutter, then knee twitch. That usually means "look out for opening doors". You okay?" Pinkie asked.

"I don't believe this." Said Twilight.

"You don't believe because you don't understand it." Said Pinkie Pie as she skipped away.

"This makes no sense. I had to figure out her secret."

Jinchuriki Training Field 1:40 P.M.

Kokuou, who was watching Pinkie and Twilight by using their Biju chakra, was laughing out loud. He was watching Twilight using a device to try to decipher the Pinkie Sense.

"Hahahahaha! Twilight honestly believes she can solve the mystery of Pinkie Sense by using science. This is hilarious." Said Kokuou.

"That's not all. Pinkie Pie predicted opening doors and Spike and Ginkaku actually slammed the door on her." Said Kinkaku.

"Not my fault. I was coming out of the library and I didn't see her behind the door." said Ginkaku.

"I'm bored. What should we do next?" Kurama asked.

"Hmm? You want to watch Twilight get more frustrated?"

"Uh, YES!" said Naruto as he and the others raced back to Ponyville.

Meanwhile in the Boggy Bottom Bog, Everfree Forest

In Boggy Bottom Bog, Fluttershy is helping the frogs out of the cart. She fails to notice a serpentine-like creature move through the murky water nearby.

Near Ponyville School 2:00 P.M.

"Mmm…" said Pinkie as she smelled the flowers. She then giggled as she skipped away. In the bushes nearby, Twilight was observing her as some tribal music played in the background.

"Twilight?" Said Spike as he called for the purple mare.

"Ah!" Twilight cried out.

"Woah-oh-uh!" yelled Spike as he was dragged into the

"Honestly, Spike, don't you know better than to sneak up on ponies?"

"Oh, sorry, but, um, well, isn't that what you're doing?"

[gasp] "No! I'm doing scientific research. I'm observing Pinkie Pie, scientific name: Pinkius Piecus, in its natural habitat."

"Pinkius-whoicus? Hh!"

"There's something fishy going on with the whole twitchy prediction thing, and I'm getting to the bottom of it. So, shh. Come on, Pinkius Piecus is on the move." Meanwhile, Naruto, the Gold and Silver Brothers, Kurama, Han and Kokuou were watching them.

"Let's go. They're going to the playground." said Naruto.

2 minutes later

Pinkie Pie was humming while she was rolling on the grass right by the school. Suddenly, her nose was itching.

"Hm... Itchy nose..." Suddenly, Pinkie Pie gasped and looked around. She then hid under one of the slides on the playground. "A-ha, that makes no sense. See? She's hiding like something's about to fall out of the sky, but a twitchy tail means that something's about to fall from the sky, not an itchy nose." Suddenly, a swarm of bees appeared above the playground.

[swarm of bees buzzing]

"This proves..."

Spike: [gasp]

"...perhaps conclusively, that"—

"Gah!" yelled Spike as he ran away from the swarm of bees.

"Spike! Where are you going? I'm trying to teach you the value of scientific"— Suddenly, the bees attack Twilight.

[swarm buzzing]

[comical "sting" noises]

"Ow! Ouch! Ow!" Twilight yelled as she was repeatedly stung. A short distance away, Team Foxes and Dolphin-Horses were Twilight get stung back and forth.

"Well, itchy nose means "watch out for bee swarms"." Said Naruto. "Should we help her?"

"Don't worry. My chakra will heal her and those bees will die when they sting her." Said Kokuou.

Sweet Apple Acres 2:15 P.M.

Twilight had a few bandages on her hands and continued to observe Pinkie Pie.

"What's she doing now?" asked Spike.

"Smelling a flower." Twilight said as she watched Pinkie smell a flower.

"Holy guacamole! I wonder what that means?" Spike asked as he wrote down the observation.

"Probably that the flower smells good. Wait. I'm getting something. Ear flop, eye flutter, knee twitch."

"Hold on... You told me that's the combo that says "watch out for opening doors"!" Spike then hid in a bush to get away from the barn door.

"Oh, ho. You really, really believe this stuff, don't you? Here, let me show you there's nothing to be afraid of." Twilight then leaned on the door. "You see? I promise you there's nothing to fear from that"—Suddenly, a cellar door opened and Twilight fell down. "Wo-o-ah! Ow! Ugh! Ow! Ow!"

"Twilight! You came to visit my new apple cellar, how nice. Twi? You okay? Uh, Twi?" said Applejack.

Jinchuriki Training Field 2:20 P.M.

"Here, let me help you." Said Spike as he used a rope to bring Twilight's broken hands up.

"Okay, take this down: twitchy tail." Said Twilight as she saw Pinkie's tail twitch.

"Twitchy tail? [gasp] TWITCHY-TAIL!" Spike let go of the rope which made Twilight's arm come down.

"Hush, Spike! We can't let Pinkie know we're here, remember?"

"Someone's gonna fall, something's gonna fall! Run for your lives. Ah-ha-ha!" Spike then ran away.

"Ugh, Spike honestly, you're overreact"—Suddenly, a vase falls on Twilight. Then, an anvil fell. Then a cart. Then a piano.

"Ohhh!" said Han as he witnessed the objects slam into Twilight. He and the Jinchuriki and Biju looked up to see that Derpy Hooves accidentally let the objects go.

5 minutes later

[humming] "Hey, Applejack. Whatchya doin'?" Pinkie Pie asked her fellow Element.

"Takin' more apples to my new apple cellar. How 'bout you Pinkie? Whatchu doin'?" said Applejack as she was carrying some apples to the cellar.

"Oh, letting Twilight and Naruto and the others secretly follow me all day, without me knowing."

"You mean you knew all along? Why didn't you tell me?" Twilight asked Pinkie.

[giggles] "Silly, that would've spoiled the secret!"

"Urgh!"

"How did you know we were watching you?" asked Kurama.

"Simple. I'm connected to Kokuou so I felt his energy which also allowed me to sense you guys as well."

"Can't argue with that."

"Tail... still twitching?" asked Spike.

"All done, clear skies from here on in, as far as I can tell"—Suddenly, Pinkie Pie's whole body was shaking uncontrollably. "Hu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu!"

"Oh no! What does that one mean?"

"Dunno, never gotten any like it before, but whatever that shudder's about, it's a doozy. Something you never expect to happen is gonna happen! Hu-bu-bu-bu-bu hu-bu-bu-bu! And its gonna happen... At Froggy Bottom Bog!"

"That's where Fluttershy's headed!" Applejack shouted.

"Well, let's go." Said Kokuou.

"Oh no! Is it about her?" Spike asked.

"Uh, I'm not sure." Said Pinkie.

"We better go and make sure she's okay."

"Calm down everypony. All we know right now is that Pinkie Pie just got a case of the shivers. That's all." Said Twilight.

"Guh- Hey! I thought you didn't believe in this stuff?" said Spike.

"I don't. I just want to be there to see the look on Pinkie's face when we find out nothing's wrong."

"Enough of this. Let's get a move on." Said Kinkaku.

Boggy Bottom Bog, Everfree Forest 2:40 P.M.

After racing through the forest at fast speeds, they arrived at Froggy Bottom Bog.

"Fluttershy?" Applejack called out.

"Fluttershy?" Pinkie Pie also called out. [gasp] They finally see Fluttershy unloading the last few frogs into the swamp.

"Fluttershy! You're okay!" Spike said as he ran up and hugged Fluttershy.

"Of course." Said Fluttershy.

"Phew, what a relief." Said Applejack as she wiped her forehead.

"I'm so glad everything's alright." Said Pinkie.

Twilight then started to gloat, "Sorry, I know it's not nice to gloat but... AHA! I told you there was nothing to worry about and I was right. Pinkie Pie said whatever she was shuddering about was a [cough] doozy, and [cough] and the only [cough] doozy here is how right I am." Right behind Twilight, a huge figure emerged from the waters.

"Um... Twilight?" Applejack said as she tried to tell Applejack.

"Pinkie's made a lot of predictions today but [cough] ugh, what is that smell? But what we've shown here is that there's no point in believing [cough] in anything you can't see for yourself."

"W-well t-then s-see what's b-b-behind you, Twilight!" said Spike. Twilight turned around to see a hydra with four heads.

[Hydra growls]

"I see it... But I don't believe it!"

"Rahhh!" the hydra yelled.

"Is that a hydra?" Pinkie Pie asked.

"Who cares? RUN!" Applejack said as she ran and the others followed suit. Pinkie Pie was just so scared out of her living mind that she wouldn't budge.

"Pinkie! Come on!" said Twilight. Kokuou then grabbed Pinkie before one of the heads could get her.

"Oh, I'm so sorry." Fluttershy said to a frog. The four hydra heads then tried to grab everyone but failed each time.

"Everyone up that hill!" Naruto yelled out. Just a few moments later, the hydra managed to break the vines and continued the chase.

"He-e-elp!" yelled Spike as he was trapped in the mud.

"Shit!" said Kurama. Kurama ran back and grabbed Spike just before the hydra head caught him.

"Now, while it's distracted." Naruto and the brothers jumped on the pillars and got to safety. Spike, Applejack, Pinkie, Fluttershy, Kokuou and Kurama already made it across. Twilight was about to jump but one of the hydra heads saw her and tried to eat her. Twilight jumped out of the way and the hydra hit his head on the pillar which caused it to hit the other pillars preventing Twilight from jumping to safety.

"Damn." Said Kurama.

"T-t-t-twilight!" said Pinkie. The hydra head was whimpering due to its injury and then it suddenly roars out of anger. "T-t-t-twilight! You have to jump!"

"I'll never make it!" Twilight said as she saw the immense gap.

"You'll be fine!"

"I will not!"

"It's your only ho-o-ope! You have to take a leap of faith!"

"Oh for goodness sakes, just do it." said Naruto. Twilight gulped then jumped over the chasm. The hydra tried to eat Twilight again but Twilight slid on the hydra's neck and fell down the chasm.

"Y-ugh! No! Oh no! Noooo! WA-A-A-AH! Ugh! Blegh!" was Twilight's response when she fell down the chasm but then hit a bubble sending her upward and bounced onto some remaining pillars towards the others. She then recovered quickly.

"Yes!" yelled Naruto.

"I knew you could do it, Twilight!" Pinkie Pie said as she hugged Twilight.

"I don't know how it happened; coincidence, dumb luck, or what, but you said there'd be a doozy here at Froggy Bottom Bog, and I'd say we just had ourselves one heck of a doozy. I mean that hydra"—Suddenly, Pinkie's body starts shaking again, implying that the hydra was not the "doozy". "Pinkie?"

"That wasn't it."

"Huh?" said Twilight.

"What wasn't what?" asked Spike.

"What are you talking about Pink?" said Applejack.

"The hydra wasn't the doozy." Said Pinkie Pie. The team looks back to see the hydra leave with one of the heads blowing a raspberry.

'Loser.' Kinkaku thought.

"I'm still getting the shudders. Oo-o-oh, oo-o-oh." Said Pinkie Pie as her body was still shuddering. "You see? There it is again. Whatever the doozy was at Froggy Bottom Bog, my Pinkie Sense says it still hasn't happened."

"Huh? But I- WHAT! The hydra wasn't the doozy? How could it not be the doozy? What could be doozier than that?" an angry Twilight asked.

"Dunno, but it just wasn't it." Suddenly, the sound of a kettle whistling was coming from Twilight.

"Rrrgh..." Twilight's mane then erupts into flames which even surprised Han. "Ooh... I give up..." said Twilight as she showed slight burns over her body.

"Give what up, Twi?" Spike asked the now calm mare.

"The fight. I can't fight it anymore. I don't understand how, why, or what, but Pinkie sense somehow... makes sense. I don't see how it does, but it just does. Just because I don't understand doesn't mean it's not true."

"Y-y-y-you m-m-mean you b-b-b-believe?" said Pinkie as she was still shaking.

"Eyup, I guess I do."

"Oo-woo-oo-oo-oo, woo-oo-oo-oo-oh, woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh." Suddenly, Pinkie Pie's body stops all at once. "Ooh! [gasp] That was it. That's the doozy."

"Say what?" said Kurama.

"What? What is?" Twilight asked.

"You believing. I never expected that to happen. That was the doozy, oh and, oh what a doozy of a doozy it was!" Pinkie then went back to town leaving Twilight and the others just confused at this turn of events.

"I'll never understand that mare." Kokuou said.

Ponyville Library 3:05 P.M.

Spike returned back to the library to hear Twilight and Pinkie giggling.

"Oh, good, Spike, you're here. Take a letter." Said Twilight.

"With pleasure, Twilight." said Spike as he got a piece of paper and a pen.

"Dear Princess Celestia, I'm happy to report that"—Suddenly, Spike stops writing the letter because he sees Twilight wearing an unusual hat. "Spike, what have I been saying about focus?"

"I know, but I... Well..."

"What's wrong Spike, never thought you'd see me with an umbrella hat on?" Twilight said as she was wearing an umbrella hat just like Pinkie.

"Not really, no."

"Pinkie's tail's a-twitchin'. What else can I do?" Twilight, Pinkie, and Spike laughed then Spike decided to finish the letter.

Twilight Sparkle: "I am happy to report that I now realize there are wonderful things in this world you just can't explain, but that doesn't necessarily make them any less true. It just means you have to choose to believe in them, and sometimes it takes a friend to show you the way."

Always, your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle

Both mares stepped outside and Pinkie's tail started to twitch again.

"There it goes again." Said Pinkie as her tail was twitching.

"I wonder what's gonna drop outta the sky this time?" Twilight said to Pinkie.

"You never know." Spike was at the top of the library and was about to transport the letter when suddenly you hear a jet engine sound and Princess Celestia lands right near Spike.

"Twitchy tail?" said Spike in amazement. Princess Celestia took the letter and flew up into the sky. "Holy guacamole!"

Meanwhile at Rainbow Dash's House

Rainbow Dash forgot to look through her mailbox today due to oversleeping. She looked in it and saw an invitation.

Dear Rainbow Dash,

You are invited to participate in the Best Young Flyer Competition in Clousdale. The winner will spend an entire day with the Wonderbolts. The contest will begin in 5 days from now. See you soon.

From,

Princess Celestia

"The Best Young Flyer Competition?" said Rainbow Dash in disbelief. "I never thought I would actually be in it. Now, I can show the Sonic Rainboom."
