Hello Fanfictions readers! It's been about a month since my last update, but I am back with a new chapter! We are almost there readers! Just one more chapter after this and I have finally finished the first Season of MLP! Get hype!
*A portal to Equestria appears* And as always, here my rude which means cue the disclaimer!
(Disclaimer: I do not own My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. All rights go to Hasbro Studios. I also don't own any songs that may seem familiar to you people. They belong to their respective owners as well. I just own this story and nothing more.)
Alright people! Let's party both figuratively and, for me, literally! *Jumps into portal*
Friendship 25: Party for One, Party for All
(Twilight's House)
It was another quiet say at twilight's place aka the library as Twilight was currently studying as always while Spike, having finished his chores for today, was currently playing Pokémon Diamond. Owlicious was currently perched on the stand I had built for it. As for me, I was sitting right next to Spike, working on my Fanfiction as I was close to finishing up the newest chapter for one of my stories.
*KNOCK-KNOCK-KNOCK!*
Hm? That's strange, I don't believe we were expecting anypony here. Setting down my laptop, I looked down to the lower floor and saw Twilight opening the door to see who it was.
"Oh, hi Pinkie Pie." Oh, so it was Pinkie Pie. Wonder what she-?
This is your singing telegram
I hope it finds you well
You're invited to a party
'Cause we think you're really swell
Gummy's turning one year old
So help us celebrate
The cake will be delicious
The festivities first-rate
There will be games and dancing
Bob for apples, cut a rug
And when the party's over
We'll gather 'round for a group hug
No need to bring a gift
Being there will be enough
Birthdays mean having fun with friends
Not getting lots of stuff
It won't be the same without you
So we hope that you say yes
So, please, oh please R.S.V.P
And come, and be our guest!
By the time Pinkie finished singing, I was right next to Twilight as we looked at her weirdly.
"Pinkie, I know this sort of stuff makes you, you but couldn't you have just sent written invitations?" I said.
"Huh, never thought of that." Pinkie said before shrugging. "Oh well, better get to the others. See you at the party!" And with that, she grabbed Gummy and dashed off.
"…Well, guess we're going to a party." Twilight said as she closed the door and went back to her studies.
"Do we have to?" I asked.
"Oh don't be like that, it'll be fun." Twilight said.
"True, Pinkie's parties are fun…most of them anyways." I said. "So, what time do you want to leave?"
"Knowing Pinkie, she'll be all over Ponyville inviting everypony else so let's go in a couple of hours."
"Sounds good to me." I said as I went back to my laptop and proceeded to finish the chapter I was working.
Looks like it's time for episode 25. Now how to handle this one…
(Later)
Hours later, in Equestria time, me and Twilight left the library in Spike's care and went to Sugar Cube Corner where the upper floor was booked for us and the rest of the Mane 6 as the party was in full bloom. Rainbow Dash and AJ were hanging out together, seeing who was better at getting apples, Rarity was by the Punch Bowl, Fluttershy and Twilight were dancing, and Pinkie was simply jumping around. As for me, I kept to myself and ate some cake because who doesn't like cake?
I cried out in surprise when something wet had struck me and saw that Rarity, who had been drinking the punch, had did a spit take and accidentally struck me if the apologetic look she gave me said anything.
"Do you like the punch? It's Gummy's favorite." Pinkie said as said toothless alligator was currently in the punch bowl. Bet you wish you hadn't drank that punch now, huh Rarity?
A nearby Twilight gave Rarity a look and gulping down saliva, Rarity reluctantly drank her refilled punch as the music changed.
"Oh! This is my jam!" Pinkie said before she danced off to the dance floor which gave Rarity a chance to spew the beverage in her mouth into a nearby plant. Is that good for it or do plants only accept water?
"Sorry about that." Rarity apologized to me while handing me a towel via magic.
"Don't worry, you didn't mean to." I said as I accepted the towel and wiped myself clean when suddenly, something crashed into me and I flew and collided with the wall.
"Oof!" I groaned out as the wind was knocked out of me. Shaking my head, I looked to see Twilight who had just been knocked over by Pinkie who was dominating the dance floor in a different kind of way that was no doubt painful if the Fluttershy-shaped crack in the wall said anything. At least Fluttershy was okay.
"Oh! I'm sorry!" Twilight apologized while a bit flustered, getting off me and helped me up.
"It's okay." I said, shaking my head to get rid of the dizziness. Even though this was a small party, Pinkie still found a way to make it crazy.
"Come on everypony!" Pinkie called out to everyone to join her on the dance floor. "Gummy wants to dance!" What the-!? Wasn't that thing in the punch bowl a second ago? And how is he not wet?
"Why not join us, Ash?" Twilight suggested. "I don't really see you dance that often."
"And for good reason." I said. "I don't dance."
"Oh come on, don't say that." Twilight said.
"Twilight, I can't dance to save my life." I said.
"Oh you can't be that bad." Twilight said as the others turned to me.
"Yeah, come on!"
"Let's see those hooves move!"
As the others kept insisting I join the dance floor, I began to think that I should have stayed at the library with Spike as it was six females again one male. I never stood a chance.
(Later)
"I can't believe I let you talk me into dancing." I said as hid my face under the hood of my cloak as I felt my cheeks burning with embarrassment.
"Oh don't be like that, you weren't that bad." Twilight said, trying to cheer me up as we and the others walked out of Sugar Cube Corner, having partied until it was night and the stars and moon decorated the night.
"Woowee! I am beat!" AJ said out loud. "I haven't danced that much since…well, since your last party. Thanks again for the invite."
"See you later birthday alligator." Rainbow said her piece.
"Bravo for hosting yet another delightful soirée." Rarity said her piece.
"It's been lovely." And finally, Fluttershy said her piece.
"You sure you don't wanna stay?" Pinkie asked as Twilight and I stopped to listen to her. "There's still some cake left."
"I think we'll pass." I said as I held up a bag of packaged birthday cake. "We got enough cake here already."
"Great party though." Twilight said. "We should do this again soon."
"Bye Pinkie Pie!" I waved goodbye before Twilight and I took our leave. After a few minutes of walking, I spoke up. "You do know it's Pinkie's birthday tomorrow, right?"
"It is?" Twilight said in surprise.
"It is." I said. "Although, with all the parities Pinkie throws around all over Ponyville, I have to wonder if she ever throws a party for herself."
"Pinkie always throws a party for others." Twilight said as she saw what I was saying. "Throwing a party for herself would probably never come to her mind…oh gosh, she doesn't know that her birthday is tomorrow, does she?"
"I asked her what tomorrow was and she just said that tomorrow was Thursday and called me silly." I said.
"I was afraid of that." Twilight said. "We have to tell everyone else, come on!"
"Whoa!" Grabbing my hoof, Twilight dragged me to the directions of Rarity's place as it was the closest near here.
(The Next Day)
Sleep. It was a beautiful thing. Sleep brings peace to all. It rejuvenates a being after an exhausting day. So when the sound of knocking on the door was heard, I groaned in annoyance and reluctantly got up to yell at the pony who woke me up at this hour.
"Alright. Who is it-?"
"It's soon!" Wah! Jesus! Don't do that!
"Pinkie?" I rubbed my eyes and saw that it was indeed Pinkie, hopping as always, as she wore a basket hat with pink sealed envelopes.
"Ash, who is it?" I heard twilight's voice behind me and I turned to see a still tired Twilight who no doubt just woke up if her messy hair told me anything.
"It's Pinkie Pie." I said as Twilight walked up next to me and greeted the pink Earth Pony.
"Oh, good morn-"
"It's soon!" Pinkie interrupted. Rude.
"Pardon me" Twilight said, raising an eyebrow in confusion.
"You said we should have another party soon, and well, it's soon" Pinkie spoke as she hopped before stopping and leaning down to give us our invitations. "Here's your invitation!"
Twilight used her magic to take one out of the basket while I simply reached and grabbed one before opening it while Twilight read out loud.
"You're invited to Gummy's after-birthday party this afternoon at 3 o'clock." Twilight read off before lowering the invite to look at the Pony of Laughter.
"All our best's friends are invited and there's gonna be dancing and games and cake and ice cream and punch!" You had me on cake and ice cream. The punch, after the last party, not so much.
"This afternoon?" Twilight asked and Pinkie nodded. "As in, this afternoon this afternoon?"
"Yes indeedy!" That's not even a word.
"Oh, gosh. I wish I could make it, but I've gotten a bit behind on my studies." Putting on the best smile she could manage, Twilight used her magic to bring forth a huge pile of books. Smooth Twilight, real smooth. "I've really got hit the books." You don't say?
"I understand. Your studies come first." Pinkie said before turning to me. "Well then, what about you, Ash?"
"If I have time, maybe." I said as Twilight gave me a look which I completely ignored.
"Great! I'll see you later then!" Pinkie said. "And don't worry, Twilight, we'll be sure to save you some cake!" I already saved us some cake from last night's party-and there she goes-no wait, she's back. "Oh, and Twilight, you really shouldn't hit the books. You should read them." She didn't mean that literally-and there she goes for real this time. Geez, can't finish my thoughts when she's around.
"I'll keep that mind." Twilight said before closing the door and looking at me like I had done something stupid. "Ash, what are you thinking!? Did you forget that we're all planning on throwing Pinkie a surprise party later!?"
"I didn't forget." I said as I put the invite to the side. "Somepony needs to keep her occupied while you girls are busy getting everything ready or would you rather have her throw that after-party for Gummy with nothing, but inanimate objects because the other says they can't go?"
"Okay, you make a good point." Twilight said, seeing my logic. "But Pinkie wouldn't party with inanimate objects. She's random, not crazy." Oh if only you knew, Twilight. If only you knew…
(Sugar Cube Corner)
"Hey, Pinkie? You up here?" I called out to the pink Earth Pony as I made my way up and found her thinking about something while her pet, Gummy was playing with a ball of yarn. What are you, a cat?
"Oh! Hey Ash." Pinkie said. "What bring you here?"
"I just wanted to know where the party's going to be at since you didn't really explain anything when you left." I said.
"It's the same place as last time, right here at Sugar Cube Corner." Pinkie said.
"Oh, should have known." I said before asking, "What are you doing? You look like you were thinking about something."
"I was thinking about our friends. They've been acting really strange today." Pinkie said while crossing her arms.
"How strange are we talking about?" I asked despite knowing the reason why.
"Like suspicious strange." Pinkie said. "Sure, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy have to house-sit for the vacationing bear," Wow, these girls are not very good at making excuses, are they? "But what are the chances our other friends would have plans for this afternoon too?" Seriously? You don't suspect Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, but you suspect the others? Then again, this is Pinkie Pie.
"Rarity has to wash her hair?" Since when doesn't she? "Applejack has to pick apple?" Doesn't she buck 'em, not pick them? "Twilight is behind on her studies and has to hit the books?" Again, not literal. "The more I think about it, the more those are starting to sound like *gasp!* excuses!" Geez, what gave that away?" Hey, isn't that Twilight?" Say what?
Going up to the window Pinkie was looking out of, I saw Twilight trying to act 'natural.' Sorry girl, but you're as natural as guy up to no good.
"That doesn't look like studying." Pinkie said as Twilight just entered the building. "Or hitting." And once again, not literal.
"What are you doing?" I asked as Pinkie made a hole in the floor and sent a tin can connected to a string down. Never could figure out how those things work.
"Shh! Be quiet!" Pinkie hushed me before listening closely, but made some room so I could hear too. How nice of her…I think? I mean, we're listening in on a private conversation which is rude so would this count as nice?
"…Good, I don't want her to know anything about this." I heard Twilight's voice come from the can/ Seriously, how do these things work.
"Yes, of course. I'll be right back." That was Mrs. Cake, guess she was in the back.
"But, we're friends." Pinkie said. "What wouldn't Twilight want me to know anything?"
"Who knows?" I lied of course since I know what was going on. In fact, I was supposed to be helping Twilight and the others right now, not be here with Pinkie Pie.
"There you go." Mrs. Cake's voice came back.
"Thanks. Remember, not a word to Pinkie Pie…Hey, what's with the tin can?" The can was pulled from the other side, pulling Pinkie's arm into the hole since she was the one holding it.
"Busted." I commented before Pinkie pulled back and the string snapped before Twilight's cry was heard from downstairs. A few seconds later, the sound of the door opening made Pinkie drag me to the window to see Twilight leaving with cake for Pinkie's party on her back in a box.
"Come on, Ash! We've gotta follow her!"
"Wait, we've got to what-wah!" I cried out in surprise when Pinkie dragged me and Gummy out of the building and followed Twilight who was still being suspicious and obvious as fuck right now.
Again, I should be helping her right now, not following her. Maybe coming to Pinkie early so I could draw her attention away from the girls wasn't such a good idea. That, or my part of the plan failed.
"Time to get to the bottom of things." Pinkie said while putting on one of those ridiculous glasses with the fake nose, eyebrow, and mustache.
"Yeah, you do that." I said as I attempted to leave, but Pinkie grabbed and dragged me with her. I'm not going to be leaving anytime soon, am I?
We followed Twilight, Pinkie mostly than me, and had a few close calls that made Pinkie decide that she needed a new disguise which was for some reason hiding in a black of hay before following Twilight all the way to Rarity's Boutique. Seconds later, Rarity appeared at the door.
"Try and see what they're talking about." Pinkie told me before going to hide someplace else.
I sighed as I felt like I had no choice lest I bring suspicion upon me so I did as told and hid in a bush close to the girls.
"She didn't see you at the sweet shop, did she?" That was Rarity.
"I don't think so." And that would be Twilight. I moved some leaves so I could see and saw the two unicorns next to each other while surveying the area, not even only looking behind them since that where I was right now.
"Oh good, I'd hate for her to ruin everything." You might want to word that better, Rarity. You never know whose listening.
"Me too." Twilight said before she moved away and left the box next to Rarity before she took her leave. Once she was gone, Rarity stood in front of the box before picking it up and hiding it in her curly tail which, I admit, was pretty smart as it was almost hidden from view.
I exited the bush and walked over to where Pinkie was at, tapping on the hay to get her attention. The glasses she was still wearing plus Gummy came out and I pointed to the moving Rarity who was also being suspicious and obvious as fuck. Seriously girls, do you not know what acting natural means.
"Quick, after her!" Pinkie whispered before putting on a jacket and hat on top of the hay she was in before moving-wait a minute. Where did that jacket and hat come from?
"One day, Ash. One day…" I muttered to myself as I followed Pinkie.
We followed Rarity to another part of town where she was checking the area before meeting up with Fluttershy.
"Have you seen her?" Rarity asked.
"Not since this morning." Fluttershy said.
"Me neither. Can you believe she was planning an after-birthday party today?" Again, might want to word that differently.
"I'm just glad I was able to come up with an excuse for why I couldn't be there."
"Me too. This is obviously going to be so much better." Once again, word that differently.
"As long as we keep her from finding out about it, it will." You too, Fluttershy. Word that differently.
Rarity placed the box down, whispered something to Fluttershy, before taking her leave. After that, Fluttershy took the box and was now heading towards out direction. Pinkie Pie went to quickly leave, but she bumped into me, knocking my glasses off, and stumbled back until she bumped into Fluttershy. Not good.
At the sight of Pinkie's disguise, I couldn't tell if it was because it was Pinkie or it was the disguise, but Fluttershy screamed in fright and quickly grabbed the box before flying off.
"…I thought everypony loved my parties…" Pinkie said sadly.
I was about to say something when Rainbow appeared, walking past us.
"Hey guy I've never met." Wait, what? "Hey Pinkie Pie." It took only a second for Rainbow to realize who she had passed and froze in response before unfreezing and said, "Uh oh." She then took off.
"Rainbow Dash, wait!" Pinkie said as her head popped out and she chased after Rainbow.
"Well, at least I can leave now." I said, picking up my glasses on the ground while a bit annoyed that Rainbow didn't recognize me because I simply didn't have my glasses on.
Anyway, with Pinkie now gone, what should I do now?
(Later)
All I wanted was to work on my Fanfiction while eating some sweets like a delicious donut or maybe a cookie. Instead, I'm hiding while greatly weirded out by what the gloomy Pinkie Pie was doing.
"Thank you all so much for coming! It means so much to Gummy!" Pinkie said to, as I remembered, inanimate objects that include some rocks, a bag of flour, dust bunnies(at least I think their dust bunnies), and a bucket of turnips. And they all had party hats on.
"Could I have some more punch?"
"Of course you can have some more punch, Mr. Turnip." Was that a twitch? I think I saw a twitch from Pinkie.
"This is one great party. You've really outdone yourself!"
"Why thank you Rocky." Seriously? Rocky? That's the best you could come up with? And am I actually questioning this?
"I'm having as delightful time as well."
"I'm so glad to hear that, Sir Lincelot." Lincelot? What is this, the Knights of the Round Table? But wait, tables not even round and there are no knights. So…Inanimate Objects of the Table? Wait, why am I even thinking this?
"Might I trouble you for another slice of cake?"
"Anything for you, Madam Flour." Oh, so it's a 'lady.'
"I'm just glad none of them ponies showed up!"
"Oh, they're not so bad." The crazy look on your face says otherwise.
"Not so bad? Please! They're a bunch of losers!" Am I included in that insult? If so, I resent that!
"Oh come on now, 'losers' might be a little strong, don't you think?"
"After the way they treated you? I say 'losers' isn't strong enough."
"…It was pretty rude."
"Pretty rude? It was downright despicable!"
"It was, wasn't it!?"
"If I were you, I wouldn't speak to them ever again!"
"You know what? I'm not going to speak to them ever again! And I'm not going to invite them to another party as long as I live! They don't deserve to be invited to my parties!" And there goes another twitch. I'm worried now. "Not after the way they've been acting!"
"Yes! That's right!"
"Well done!"
"Yeah!"
"You show 'em!"
Okay, I take it back. This isn't weird, this is downright disturbing. I need to do something before she loses her mind…if she hasn't already. It's debatable at this point.
The second I knocked on the door, Pinkie Pie stopped acting, in a way, coo coo for cocoa puffs.
"Who could that be?" I answered Pinkie by opening the door. "Ash?"
"Hey Pinkie." I said, waving before entering and closing the door behind me.
"What are you doing here?" Pinkie asked, looking honestly surprised to see me here.
"Well, I did say that if I had time, I'd come over so…here I am." I said with a shrug.
Slowly, a big smile appeared on Pinkie as her hair, which looked like it had lost air like a balloon, suddenly inflated and returned back to her usual, puffy and crazy hairstyle.
"Oh my gosh! Thank you so, so much for coming!" Pinkie said as her arms extended towards me as if they were made of rubber, I'm guessing TV powers were behind this, grabbed me, and pulled me towards her into a bone crushing hug.
"Pinkie! Can't…breathe!" I breathed out as I was losing air fast.
"Oh! Sorry!" Pinkie said as she released me and I gasped for air. "I'm just so happy and glad that you came over! Aren't you happy, Gummy?" Said toothless alligator didn't say anything as it just bounced around on a balloon. "He's very happy!" Really? How can you tell? "Want some cake?"
"Don't mind if I do." I said as she handed me a plate of sliced cake and I dug in. As good as always. "So, is it just you, me, and Gummy?"
"What? No silly." Pinkie said as she placed an arm around 'Mr. Turnip.' "We've got a lot of guests here like Mr. Turnip, Madam Flour, Sir Lincelot, and my good old friend, Rocky!"
"R~ight…" I trailed on before I focused on finishing the cake. Once done, I pushed the plate away and addressed Pinkie. "Hey, Pinkie."
"Yes, what is it?" Pinkie asked. "Do you want more cake? Or how about some punch?"
"No, no, I'm good, thanks." I said. "I was just thinking I'd show you a surprise."
"A surprise? For me?" Pinkie titled her head in confusion. "But it's Gummy's party."
"This is for Gummy too." I said as I brought out to blind folds. "Just wraps this around you and Gummy and we'll be on our way to the surprise.
"O~h! I'm so excited!" Pinkie said before she blindfolded Gummy and then herself. "Lead the way, Ash!"
"Right." I said as I placed Gummy on top of Pinkie and guided her out the building. This was the plan: I go to Gummy's after-birthday party to stop her going into crazy town and lead her to the farm. But since she knows every pony here in town, who's to say she didn't know the entire layout of said town? In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if she did know that. So, as a precaution so she doesn't suspect anything, I took random directions here and there to mislead her before we finally arrived at Apple Acres.
Guiding Pinkie to the barn, I opened the door, placing a hoof in front of my mouth to tell the others to be quiet before I guided Pinkie inside.
"Okay, you can take your blindfolds off." I said and once Pinkie did, she gasped at the sight of her.
"SURPRISE!" All the girls yelled as one as Spike in the back popped some confetti's.
Pinkie blinked in surprise a few times before asking, "What…What is all this?"
"It's your surprise birthday party." I said as I removed the blindfold around Gummy. No need to keep the poor thing blinded after all.
"My…birthday party?"
"That's right." Twilight said. "Ash here told me yesterday that your birthday was coming up so I ruched and gathered everypony and we all ruched to hold a party for you.
"Since it was such a short notice, we did the best we could." Rarity said as she gestured to the decorations around the place.
"But…But you all were lying and avoiding me all day." Pinkie said as she looked around.
"Duh, because this was a surprise party." Rainbow said. "Wouldn't be much of a surprise if you knew about it."
"Do you like it?" Fluttershy ask.
"Do I like it?" Pinkie said as she continued to look around the place and finished at the cake at the table that said: Happy Birth Day Pinkie Pie! "…No, I don't like it." That gained sad looks from everyone. "…I LOVE IT!"
I winced a bit at the volume of her voice before I was suddenly dragged in and found myself a part of the girls who were being hugged by a very happy Pinkie.
"My own birthday! How could I have forgotten!?" Pinkie said as she released us.
"Maybe it's because of all the parties you've been hosting for every other pony." I said.
"You guys are the best friends ever!" Pinkie said as she hopped around the place before coming to a stop and lowering her head down in shame. "And here I was thinking you all didn't want to be my friend anymore."
"Now why in the world would make you think that, Sugar Cube?" AJ asked.
"You mean the excuses you girls made and the fact you've been avoiding her doesn't tell you already?" I said.
"Okay, I see your point." AJ said.
"I'm sorry I ever doubted you." Pinkie apologized.
"It's okay Pinkie Pie." Twilight said as she walked up to Pinkie. "It could have happened to any of us."
"You girls should be glad you weren't replaced by buckets of turnips, bags of flour, some rocks, and what I think are dust bunnies." I said.
"Huh?" The girls looked at me in confusion while Pinkie gave me a pleading look to not tell.
"You don't want to know." I said, complying with Pinkie who gave me a thankful look.
"Okay girls, enough talk. It's time for the main event." AJ said as she threw me a smile and I groaned.
"What main event?" Pinkie asked, excited.
"Ash here is gonna sing you a so called special birthday song." Rainbow said as she and the others stood next to each other and looked at me.
"Really!?" Pinkie said, more excited than before.
"Come on, Ash. Do it for the birthday girl!" AJ said as the girls began to chant my name.
I groaned and sighed as this was the one thing I wasn't looking forward too. Might as well as get this over with.
"Okay, fine." I said as I cleared my voice, took out my laptop from my Mary Poppins' bag, made sure the volume was loud enough, and played the music while I sang.

And…Fin. Breathing in and out, I looked at the girls to find that they were all shell shocked as their jaws were on the ground. Was I that good?
"Ash…" Pinkie was the first to recover as she walked up to me…before bringing me into a very bone crushing hug and did something just crack inside of me?
"Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou! That was the best song I ever heard!"
"Consider it…your present." I breathed out.
"In that case, that was the best birthday present ever!" Pinkie said as she finally released, much to my relief as I think she was close to breaking something for a second there.
"That was a very wonderful song." Fluttershy, having recovered as well, said as the others recovered as well and threw in their piece.
"It was nothing." I said as I mentally thanked Kana Nishino for making such a wonderful song and I must thank Misa-chan for translating the song.
"So, now what?" Spike asked.
"What else to do than party!" AJ said as she played a nearby record player and played 'Pinkie's jam.'
With the music playing, we all danced together, smiling as we did nothing, but have a good time.
"Dear Princess Celestia ," Twilight began as Spike took down a note as always. "I am writing to you from the most delightful party. I am not only having a great time with my friends, but was also given the opportunity to learn a valuable lesson about friendship. Always expect the best from your friends and never assume the worst. Rest assured that a good friend always has your best interests at heart. Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle."
"And done." Spike said before he rolled up the letter and sent it via green fire as always. "Now where's that cake?"
"Hey, save some for me." I said as I went over to the cake.
"You guys wouldn't mind if we celebrated Gummy's after-birthday party too, would you? It got cut short," For good reason! "And he's pretty upset about it." Really? You sure? He doesn't look like it.
"Why not? Let's have a party for Gummy as well." Twilight said as the others agreed.
Well, I guess I can check 'Sing at a Birthday Party' off my list. I will admit, it was fun. But I won't tell anyone that. Ever.
*Comes out of Portal* And…done! Wow, that was not easy. Had a difficult time with this one as I switched around different ideas for what I wanted to do, but I decided on one and got this. Hope you all liked this. And if anyone wonders what the song I sang is, it's called Happy Birthday by Kana Nishino and the lyrics/translation came from a website called Misa-chan's J-Pop Blog.
Anyway, with this, I am now one more chapter away from finishing Season 1! The first goal is in sight so stick with me people! This has been Ashbel Longhart here, signing out. And as always, here comes the brohoof.
*Incoming Brohoof*
See you all next time!
