Finest Hour - Card Number 59: Hotblooded Pinkie Pie

They all looked at the now third Pinkie Pie in front of them.

“Another Pinkie Pie? Twilight, are you sure this spell is working correct?”

Twilight gave Rarity’s question a moment of thought.

“I really don’t know. But this one seems a lot friendlier; she hasn’t tried to kill us yet at least. Welcome to Equestria, we have need of your help.”

“So I have heard. I am here to lend it to you.”

“Great, we need all the help we can get. But how did you make your way here, the portal is only made to get others here, not act as a two-way door?”

“Ahh, don’t think too much about it. It’s not even on the top 10 of mind blowing things I have done.”

She began to explain who she was and where she was from. Apparently, somewhere in the multiverse, there was a parallel world of Equestria, with different versions of its inhabitants.

“I don’t really follow.”

“You don’t have to, I will follow you. I’ll go have a talk with my counterpart over there; you just summon the next three being you want.”

“Wait, how do you know that I had enough energy for three more?”

“I read the manuscript.”

As Hotblooded Pinkie Pie walked over to her counterpart, leaving Twilight lost for words, Applejack whispered something to Rainbow Dash.

“Great, now we have two of them. This will be interesting.”

Twilight regain her composure, and prepared for another summoning. As the energies surged, Hotblooded Pinkie pie had some advice for Twilight.

“I also had a peek at who the next you should get here is. Focus on someone who can cure illness, we need that, and also someone awesome. You should know who I speak of.”

Twilight had a few ideas.

“Luna told me of someone that we might find useful, and I think we are thinking of the same one. Just relax; he will not be aggressive in any way. If I do this right, that is.”

Applejack braced herself for another summon, weapon ready for striking.

“Just don’t say that the plan is failsafe, and then we are alright. Anything with failsafe in it isn’t.”

“I know, AJ, I know.”

In another burst of magic, the portal shimmered as someone walked out of it. It was not exactly something they had seen before. At least not like this. A horned amphibian walking on its hind legs was not a common sight in Ponyville.

“Welcome to, Doctor. We were told you could be of help.”

Next piece of the story

***

Finest Hour is the second part of a 3 part MTG expansion set, intended to tell an overall storyline through ponified Magic the Gathering cards, exploring the plane of Equestria and its struggle against a darker force invading it.

A prologue set named Unseen Invasion begins here
Read it if you want the back-story of the main set. Or just want to see more cards. Each piece will have a link to the next part.

This set, named Finest Hour begins with a quick recap of the prologue here
If you want to read the story of this set, simply hit the above recap link, and follow the “Next piece of the story” links.

The character Hotblooded Pinkie Pie is created by UC77, and my use of the character have been approved. While there may not be that many giant robots in this set, I intent to keep her as much in character as possible within my skills. The idea of bringing in anime characters, which I consider Hotblooded Pinkie Pie to be a amalgamation of, was brought by ManWithTheMetalArm, and I will be including references to at least one of the characters he suggested later (or at least the universe the character is in).

For more hot Hotblooded Pinkie Pie action, find the blog where she originates from here:

That's... a really, really nice creature.

3/3, flying, first strike with ability of adding permanent +1/+1 for two mana? For only three mana (of any combination of red and white)???

It's gooooood...

Might be a bit overpowered, but that would be in-character for it, if the feats shown on the blog is any indication.

I didn't say it was OP. I'm just noting its unbelievable efficiency. :D

Ahh, ok.

(But I guess, since "unbelievable efficiency" is what people usually mean when they complain about cards being "OP" anyway.)

Anyway, keep up the good work! I can't wait once you've finished the story to read it all at once. The broken snippets I've read thus far have been fascinating!

I have begun to make a "novelization" of the story, rewriting it slightly, but keeping as much as possible as it is, collecting all the small parts as one, consistent story. The timeframe, however, is very unclear, but it will be uploaded once the sets are done.

Of course! Take your time.

(I'll still be waiting impatiently, however :D)
