The Pony in Pink

Chapter 3: Crime Scene Investigators

The two walk into the store and find Mrs. Cake putting bowls and dishes away.

“Mrs. Cake, may we have a word with you?” Twilight asked.

“What’s on your mind Twilight?” She replied.

Pinkie Pie puts her two front hoofs onto the register counter.

“As you are aware, I had a cake on that window right over there.” Pinkie pointed. “I left for a few moments and it was gone.” Pinkie added.

“Oh yes, I remember you screaming then storming out.” Mrs. Cake responded.

“You didn’t happen to have moved it somewhere else have you?” Pinkie said by sounding demanding.

“Well, no I haven’t.” Mrs. Cake got cut off by Pinkie.

“Well if you did then I got something to say to you!” Pinkie yelled.

“Pinkie calm down.” Twilight said while holding down the Pink Pony. “I’m sorry Mrs. Cake, she’s just ticked off that somepony took her cake.” Twilight told Mrs. Cake.

“Oh that’s alright dearie.” She said.

“You don’t mind if Pinkie and I look around just so she can calm herself? Twilight asked while holding down Pinkie.

“Not at all.” She replied with a smile.

30 Minutes Later

Twilight and Pinkie Pie exit Sugar Cube Corner.

“It wasn’t there.” Pinkie sadly said.

“Well then she wasn’t involved in the incident Pinkie. Look we still have the Cutie Mark Crusaders, if they didn’t take it then I don’t know what we can do.” Twilight said with a downed tone.

The two mares walk into Sweet Apple Acres, they pass the barn and get up to the Cutie Mark Crusaders’ club house.

“Girls. Could we see you?” Twilight said loud enough for the Crusaders to hear.

Their club house door opens. Apple Bloom and Scootaloo walk out.

“Hey Twilight. Hey Pinkie Pie.” Apple Bloom said.

“Hello. Girls, are you aware of Pinkie Pie’s cake being stolen?” Twilight asked.

“… No, I’m not.” Apple Bloom stubbornly said.

“Oh yeah?” Pinkie asked sassily.

Pinkie Pie stretched herself to come downwards from the trees above the clubhouse.

“Then what’s this crumbs of cake I see on your mouth?” Pinkie cross examined Apple Bloom. Then sucked on her bubble pipe.

Sweetie Belle dashed outside from inside.

“It is cake crumbs! We went to Sugar Cube Corner and had a piece of a delicious cake!” Sweetie said excitedly.

“Haha! It is them! Case dismissed.” Pinkie said proudly.

“Wait, what?” Apple Bloom said.

Pinkie Pie looks inside their clubhouse and spots a slice leftover. She grabs it.

“I feel it’s only fair if I get a piece too.” Pinkie demanded.

“Well if you want a piece go ahead.” Scootaloo told Pinkie.

Pinkie stuff the plate in her face. When she lowers it, vanilla is messed around on her face.

“Hey this is vanilla! My cake had chocolate. Not vanilla.” Pinkie said while getting depressed.

“Like I said, we got it from Sugar Cube Corner. We’re having a celebration for our 2nd Anniversary of active service of the Cutie Mark Crusaders!” Sweetie Belle announced.

“That means, they didn’t have it either.” Pinkie said before walking away.

“What’s up with her?” Apple Bloom asked.

“She’s very ticked off that somepony came along and took a cake she baked.” Twilight answered.

“That’s just mean!” Scootaloo replied.

“I don’t know if we’re going to find the Pony who did it.” Twilight said.

“Well, good luck!” Apple Bloom said.

Twilight’s face changed into an “are you serious” look.
