//------------------------------// // The only chapter // Story: How Gummy Lost His Teeth // by Sympathetic Zombie //------------------------------// How Gummy Lost His Teeth     One day long ago, before Gummy had met Pinkie Pie, he was called Toothy, and always liked to eat sweets like cupcakes, caramels, candies, ice cream, and no vegetables at all, none! Gummy was a bad alligator, and never brushed his teeth, so when he ate all of the sweets, he got lots of cavities! Gummy did not care, but he had eaten all of the sweets in the city, so he needed to find more. So the sweet adventure began. He started at his home in Froggy Bottom Bog, and made his way through the Everfree Forest to a strange castle. There were no sweets there, so he continued on. After some further traveling, Gummy came across a small hut. A zebra lived there, but she had no sweets and only spoke in confusing riddles, so he moved on. There was a town in the distance, so he decided to try there. He came across a town called ponyville and met a little filly named Pinkie Pie. She made lots of his favorite sweets and he ate them all. In fact, her signature cupcakes were all that he ever ate! With extra sprinkles and chocolate syrup on top, of course. But one day his cavities got so bad that his teeth fell out! Poor gummy, he was starting to have such a great smile, but it is ruined because of his mistake. Now he can't safely eat sweets anymore due to extreme sensitivity of the exposed nerve endings, so always brush your teeth, or you could end up like Gummy! Not wanting him to be sad, Pinkie Pie adopted Gummy as a pet and cared for him very well. He now lives happily, but not without regret. If only he had listened to his mom so long ago. Fin.
