Description
Chapter one: His name is Berriswainer…He missed her. It had been one whole year since he had met her, well, met himself really. She was merely a female version of himself, good ol’ Bubble Berry. Lost in his thoughts the pink stallion placed down the baking mixture he was concocting.
Oh Pinkie we were friends for such a short time before you were whisked away by your Dusk Shine, what was her name? Twilight Sparkle? Oh yes that’s right Twilight Sparkle, she just couldn’t stand to wait a few more days could she? He slammed down his knife into the counter. They were all so rude! No pony wanted Pinkie and I to be friends! Why?! Because she’s a party pony and I am as well?! Or was it because of something else—
“Berry?! Did you just stab the counter again?!” Mrs. Cake’s voice shouted from the next room and he quickly pulled the knife out placing it on the farther side of the room.
“I’m just making some cupcakes Mrs. Cake! What would I need with a silly willy knife?” He called out in his quirky tone, while pouring out the dark mixture into the pan. Just imagine how many cupcakes Pinkie and I could make if she was here now! He opened the oven placing the pan in carefully and smiled. We could make enough for all of Equestria!
“I want to see her again, I need to! I’m going to ask Dusk today if we can visit them!” Berry sprung out of Sugar Cube Corner leaving the baking cupcakes for the Cakes.
She missed him. Oh he was so BUBBLY fun! Pinkie laughed at her joke and bounced around the kitchen snatching the sugar, flour, vanilla, milk and eggs from their proper place and into the bowl for mixing. Twilight said we might see them again! I remember her saying we would see them again but so far we haven’t. It’s been one whole year! Pinkie sighed and then her eyes sparkled with delight as an idea popped into her head.
“Maybe we can visit them! OhIsowantto! We never got to throw our super-duper special hybrid Berririffic-Pinkielicious Berry-Pinkie Bubble-Pie Bash-Party!!! IWANNA! IWANNA!” Pinkie placed the pan in the oven and leapt out the door heading for Twilight’s house and for once not thinking about cupcakes, or baking, or sweets, just Berry and how much fun they’d have together when she got there.
“HelllOooOo Dusky!!” Berry shocked the lavender stallion with his sudden appearance that the poor thing knocked over a well of ink all over the cover of the book beside him.
“Hello Berry.” He greeted with exasperation in his tone as he examined the damage to the copy of Supernaturals. He looked inside the book and sighed. Twilight’s message was still intact.
I promise to always think of you every time I read this, brother. Until I see you again please think of me as well!
- Your sister Twilight.
“Can I help you with anything?” Dusk was calm now and greeted his friend with a smile.
“IwannaseePinkiePie! PLeeassee!” Berry was inches from Dusk’s face causing him discomfort.
“You-“
“Please Bestest buddy Dusk!
“Berry—“
“PLEEEEAse oh please! Sweetest kindest Dusky?!”
“Berry—“
“I’ll bake a million bagillion cupcakes! No. A TRILLION BAGILLION OCTOMILLION CUPCAKES! JUST FOR YOU!!”
“Two of those aren’t a number. But Berry—“
“OH DUSK! I MISS HER!! PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASEEEEEE!!!!! PleasePleaseplease pleasepleasepleaseplease” he gasps. “PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!”
“FOR THE LOVE OF SOLARIS BERRY!!” Dusk screamed to the high heavens, his hair a mess, his breathing becoming more of a panting as the pink pony watched his friend’s episode with a smile on his face.
“Please.”
“As I was trying to say Berry, I agree. I think we should visit them.” Dusk’s breathing slowed as he silently counted down to ten and he straightened his ruffled mane as best he could, his right eye twitching.
“Please!… wait… REALLY?!” The pony grinned from ear to ear jumping up and down in victory.
“Yes Berry really, but in order for you to go see Pinkie Pie, you have to promise me something.”
“ANYTHING!!Just don’t go without me! ” Berry begged.
“You have to be silent until we get there. No party cannon, no singing, no jokes, just total and complete silence. It will only last a few hours this promise, while we gather everything we need and everypony else, okay?”
“But Dusky—“
“Promise! Actually make it a BERRY PROMISE!” Dusk bellowed startling the other.
“Crossmyhearthopetoflystickacupcakeinmyeye!” Berry did this so quickly, he accidently stuck his hoof in his eye. “Ouch!” Berry’s eyes grew wide realizing he had made a noise. “Wa-wait I didn’t mean to!”
“It’s alright Berry. You can start the promise now.” Dusk chuckled at his frantic friend.
“PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!”
“FOR THE LOVE OF CELESTIA PINKIE!!” Twilight screamed to the high heavens, her hair a mess, her breathing becoming more of a panting as the pink pony watched her friend’s episode with a smile on her face.
“Please.”
“As I was trying to say Pinkie, I agree. I think we should visit them.” Twilight’s breathing slowed as she silently counted down to ten and straightened her ruffled mane as best she could, her right eye twitching.
“Please!… wait… REALLY?!” The pony grinned from ear to ear jumping up and down in victory.
“Yes Pinkie really, but in order for you…” Just as Twilight was about to make Pinkie vow to be silent she felt a great source of power surge through the air. Instantly she knew that their male counterparts had had the same exact idea.
“Dusk!” Twilight ran to her double embracing him in a tight hug. Dusk held her close and smiled.
“Twilight! I’m so happy to see you!”
“Butterscotch!” Fluttershy nuzzled close to the other cream pony causing him to blush
“F-Fluttershy! I missed you so much.” He whispered shyly and she blushed as well.
“Cousin Jay Jay!” The large orange stallion greeted his double with a hoof bump and a tip of the hat which was returned by the other.
“How are yah AJ?”
“YO! BLITZ! You Ol’colt crudder!” Rainbow Dash got up into his face smirking. “You gonna stand there or are you gonna race me?”
“Dash I’ll take you on anytime you fillyfaker!” He smirked right back and the two joined in a good laugh.
“Rarity! My love!” Elusive parted the crowd of greeting ponies and lifted up the equally ecstatic white filly into his hooves.
“Oh Elusive! My heart seemed as though it couldn’t take any more! I thought about you so often I couldn’t even focus on my work!”
“Oh I felt the same! My work suffered as well!”
The ponies chatted and mingled, none seeming to notice that the two party ponies were gone.
“Berry! I’m SOOOOOOOoooo glad to see you again!” Pinkie sang following the other pony as they headed to Sugar Cube Corner.
“I missed you too!” Berry smiled wider, jumping higher.
“Now we can throw our super-duper special hybrid Berririffic-Pinkielicious Berry-Pinkie Bubble-Pie Bash-Party!!!” They said in unison fits of giddy laughter following it, their curls bouncing as they chuckled.
“But you know it’s not a party without…” Bubble Berry looked into Pinkie’s eyes.
“Streamers!” she piped.
“Balloons!”
The list went on until they got to what Berry had been waiting for.
“--And of course cupcakes, delicious, scrumptious, mmmmm in your tummy, cupcakes!” They spoke together once more charging through the bakery at full bounce.
“So where do you make the special cupcakes?” Berry’s voice darkened as he asked the confused pink filly.
“In the kitchen silly!” Pinkie giggled not quite sure what he meant.
“You do it here?” Berry raised his brow. “Doesn’t it get too messy? And isn’t it a little obvious up here? ”
“Well duh! That’s why you clean the messes! The Cakes and I always let people watch us bake.”
Berry paused. I don’t make MY special cupcakes up here in the kitchen and the Cakes certainly don’t know about them either. I thought Pinkie’s world mirrored my own. So she’s lying to me. I HATE when ponies lie to me! His hair flattened as he glared at the shocked Pink pony.
“Berry, why are you so upset? What did I do?” Pinkie frowned. “Do you hate me now? I’m sorry for whatever I did! Please forgive me!” Tears brimmed in her eyes as her hair flattened as well.
“Oh Pinkie I could never hate you. I just HATE that you would dare lie to me, of all ponies! We are one and the same. I know about everything you do because I do the EXACT SAME THING as you! So why won’t you tell me the truth?”
“Why do you think I’m lying? I’m not lying! You’re acting like a meanie Berry!” Pinkie was utterly confused, and frustrated. Why is he behaving like this? What is he talking about? I never lied! I told him where we bake, which was a strange thing to ask anyway… but he said “special” cupcakes. Come to think of it…what are “special” cupcakes? “What did you mean by special cupcakes? All my cupcakes are special! They are all equally delicious!”
“Pinkie…can I show you something?”
“What?” Pinkie sniffled.
“It’s a surprise.”
“Empty. It’s empty.” Berry was shocked and scanned the basement for anything other ponies might call unusual or psychotic. Nothing. Absolutely, positively, nothing.
“This isn’t much of a surprise Berry! It’s just the basement! The Cakes and I never use this place.”
“Oh but how I do.” Berry smirked, sending chills up Pinkie’s spine. She didn’t know why, but he seemed like a completely different pony now. He wasn’t like her. One look into his eyes and anyone could see that he was insane, and not the usual party crazy pony, the dangerous type of insanity.
“I use this place all the time to make my special cupcakes. I only make them every now and then but it’s so much fun when I get to. The way I get to play with the secret ingredients, the way they beg me not to make them into cupcakes, it’s so fun.” Berry closed his eyes a wide grin spread across his face as he seemed to imagine something that made his grin even wider.
“Berry… If this is a joke…it’s pretty funny.” Pinkie half laughed, half sobbed as he opened his eyes.
“I’m not joking Pinkie. I wanted to share this with you but it turns out, you’re not who I thought you were.” Berry shook his head in disappointment. “I thought you were supposed to mirror me.” He grinned eyes full of eagerness and hope. “But I guess there’s no reason you can’t start working with me today right? I made this number system to choose which pony will be made into cupcakes. I just draw out a number and whichever pony--”
“Berry, what are saying?! You’re being crazy! And not the fun kind!! ” Pinkie shouted and stepped away from her male counterpart. “ Making ponies into cupcakes?! If that’s what special cupcakes are, leave me out of it!”
“Oh Pinkie. Don’t hide it. I know you. I AM you. That voice in your head? You know the one. The one that sends violence and gore into your fluffy little mind? I am that voice. Berry couldn’t handle me any longer so he let me have this body, but I let him out to have fun every day. He doesn’t even have to look at what I’m doing, I have my fun too and then I slink into the shadows of his shattered little mind. So open your mind let HER take control, and she’ll make those nasty visions go away, I promise.”
“You, know about Pinkamena?” Pinkie sat on the ground her hooves grasping her face.
“Like I said I AM her. You’re talking to Berriswainer himself Miss Pinkie. You and Berry had some fun so can Pinkamena come out to play?” He laughed, a dark laugh so unlike Berry’s usual bell like chime.
It frightened her. This voice, this Berriswainer, felt as if he was her Pinkamena yet at the same time nothing like her own split self. He seemed, dare she say it, crazier? As if he would just kill anypony instead of using his, so called, system. One wrong move and even she could be turned into a pastry.
“I want Berry back! Please! I just wanted to be with Berry I didn’t realize, THAT YOU’D COME TOO!!” Pinkie sobbed and slammed her hooves to the ground.
Pinkie. Let me talk to him.
NO! Go away! I won’t let anyone get hurt in this world! No one should ever see you OR Berriswainer.
Oh please Pinkie, there’s nothing you can do. I can easily take you over by force. Is that really what you want? Berry made a deal with his inner demon, can’t you compromise as well?
NO! If it’s so easy to take over why haven’t you done it?
......
Like I thought. You can’t. I have to be willing!
Pinkie suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head knowing at once Pinkamena had become violent once again.
“Make it STOP!!” Pinkie tried to scream but could not.
“Don’t you get it? I control every nerve, every organ, and every cell in your little pink body! Everything but your mind! WHY WON’T YOU BREAK?!?!!” Pinkamena’s voice overthrew her own. Pinkie’s body threw itself into the wall as the two struggled with each other on the inside. “Your mind will be mine! I don’t need your permission! I can take everything over myself!”
“Just try it!” Pinkie growled, her left hoof grabbing her right, pulling down slamming her head into the brick wall.
Berriswainer watched in great amusement as the pink pony’s body became beaten and bloody. Still struggling and writhing every now and then Pinkie’s voice escaped or Pinkamena’s.
Wow she’s putting up such a fight Berry. Why didn’t you? I think it would have been very entertaining! Don’t you?
Shut….. up…...
Oh now don’t be that way. Or I won’t let you out to play. Oh hey that rhymed!
It did.
