A Screwball Nightmare

by Spot Light


Pieces Fall Into Place

The Location Ponyville Train Station. The Time: 9:00am.

A train pulls into the Station, Screwball steps off it. She took the train so she wouldn't stir up other ponies about a earth pony flying. Her eyes are all baggy from no sleep. She couldn't sleep knowing she wanted revenge. As she started to walk she had to proses her thoughts. I'm in the right town. I know amongst all these ponies that there are the six that I seek. The only thing is once I do find them, where do I go from there. I might want to think more about that later, here comes somepony. Right ahead of her was a Bright Pink Pony with a pink flossy mane. Maybe I can ask her a few questions, she seems sane. Screwball approached the pony.

"Excuse me," she said politely.

"Ooo, I've never seen you around before, are you new in town?"

"I've been here once before. But I intend on moving here once I do what I came here do." The pink pony was a little desecrated, she was playing with Screwball's propeller on her hat.

"I like you hat, it spins." She spun the propeller again.

I stand corrected about her being sane.

"If your new here I can show you around, I'll show you all my favorite spots, like Sugar Cube Corner."

"That's the bakery isn't it?"

"Yes mam, it's also where I live."

That makes things understandable. She must have sugar water in her vanes.

"How about I take you there. I'll buy you a cookie, because you seem so glum."

"No thanks; and I am not glum."

"Ok how about a brownie?"

"No thanks."

"A cupcake?"

"Heavens NO! I know what goes in those things."

"Who could say no to a cupcake?"

"I could, and so can the author. I'm not that hungry right now anyway."

"So you can see him too?" (Hey you two leave me out of this.)

"Sorry." they both said.

"By the way I have not introduced my self yet. My name is Screwball."

"Pinkamena Diane Pie, but everypony calls me Pinkie Pie."

"Wait you said your name was Pinkie Pie?"

"Why yes."

"My father spoke of you and how you represent the element of laughter."

"Really, what did he say."

"He said you love parties, and I was wondering if you could help through me one latter tonight."

"I would love to. I'm open tonight I'll bring my friends."

"Just bring five of your best friends."

"Where are we having the party anyway?"

"My place, It's on the other end of Ponyville."

"Really where?"

Screwball clapped her hooves twice.

"It's there; you can't miss it."

"Okie Dokie Loki we will be there." Pinkie took off in a leap of excitement.

Finally, I thought she would never leave. If she invites the right ponies I'll be able to get things where I want them, but first I need something to make them... Her thought interrupted by what she thought was a dog barking. She looked and saw a bunch of ponies in doctor out fits chasing after a patient who was barking like a dog. She saw as they managed to calm the pony down and gave her some pills. The patient was out cold.

"Come on, lets get Screw Loose back to the hospital." said one of the Doctors. Screwball watched this and got an idea so she followed them back. Once at the hospital, she came up to the front desk and asked.

"Pardon me..."

"Yes?" asked the pony at the front desk.

"I'm here to check out my mother."

"Ok miss. who is you mother?"

Come on Screwball what did they say her name was? Oh right. "Screw Loose."

"I'm going to need some proof of this." The nurse didn't believe it. Screwball reached up into the air and pulled out a photo and handed it to the lady at the desk. It was a photo of Screwball and Screw Loose.

"Well this does seem right, but you seemed to pull this out of nowhere."

"It's a floating invisible bag. I got it at Trottingham."

"Right, well we will bring her out to you. Be careful she seems to have some hair trigger personality disorder. When ever she hears a noise it depends on how she acts."

"Right then." Two doctors came out with Screw Loose, who was still asleep. The doctors went to wake her up but Screwball suggested that she will carry her. Then they hoofed her a small bag. "What's this?"

"Coma pills, sleeping pills so strong that they could drop a dragon in seconds." One of the doctors said.

"Be shore to give them to her if she gets out of control." said the other doctor.

"Will do." With that Screwball left with a bag of pills in her teeth and a mantle patient out cold on her back.

This is good, she thought, I have everything I need. My house should be right where I made it appear when I clapped my hooves earlier. A smile crept across her face, because the pieces were falling into place.
