Arianna: A Bedtime Story with Pinkie Pie.

Arianna: Once Upon A Time

In the quaint little town of Ponyville, evening was approaching. There was nothing special about this specific night, not in comparison to many of the events that occurred here and around the nation of Equestria. No, this was a plain old afternoon proceeding into a plain old evening. The citizens were mostly headed to their respective homes, be they empty or filled with family, eagerly awaiting the return of their loved ones. There were, however, some ponies, in a small, tight knit group, who were not done with the day.

Twilight Sparkle, accompanied by four of her five closest friends, was making her way to Sugar Cube Corner. There they would meet with Pinkie Pie, shortly thereafter climbing a nearby grassy hill to watch the sun set and gaze at the stars. It had taken some work, but Miss Sparkle had managed to convince the others that it would be a nice thing to do.

They were all chatting away, be it in excitement about the evening to come or just general conversation. Eventually though, they all quietened down upon reaching the door to SCC. The reason they were meeting Pinkie Pie last was because she had spent the day babysitting the Cake twins. At this point in time, Pinkie just needed to put them to bed, which is why the others had gone quiet.

Twilight knocked softly, careful not to awaken any possibly sleeping foals.

"Comiiiiiing!" Came Pinkie's voice, loud and clear.

Within seconds, the door was replaced by a beaming Pinkie Pie. Her two charges sat on her back, trying to beam just as much, but a combination of physical impossibility and drowsiness reduced them to tired looking smiles.

"Oooooo, hey girls! You're just in time for the bedtime story!"

"Yay," replied Rainbow Dash half heartedly.

Rarity frowned at Rainbow then smiled gently back at Pinkie.

"Don't mind her," she said. "She just wishes she was playing her new video game."

Twilight returned to the topic at hand, "We can wait outside if you'd like?"

"Why would you do that?" asked Pinkie, genuinely confused. "Don't you want to hear it too?"

The five mares on the outside looked to one another.

Fluttershy answered for all of them, "We'd love to."

Rainbow began to mutter, "Ugh, bedtime stories are for babies. The sunset was bad eno-"

"Quiet now, sugarcube," Applejack interrupted.
