Chapter 2

So you want to know how things got so out of hoove do you, okie dokie lokie. Like all good stories I shall start from the beginning.

Hm let's see aw yes now I remember it was the day after Twilight, Spike, and I had "snuck" into the Canterlot library in search of the time spells. I feel kind of bad for Twilight considering how worked up she was getting. That's why I decided to tag along, I wanted to make sure she didn't go crazy again and attempt a repeat of the "Want It Need It spell disaster". And in the end when Twilight learned that there was NO disaster and went back in time with that one time only spell and making the same mistake as 'Future Twilight' I felt kind of sorry for her so I did what I do best and cheered her up, then we took Spike home.

Anyways I was heading towards the little tent I had set up in the town square. This was where all the merchant ponies sold their goods. On occasion my friend Applejack brings her apple stand down here and of course on special occasions the Cakes have set up stands here as well.

As I was nearing the tent I noticed Mrs. Cake standing outside and she had Pound Cake and Pumpkin Cake with her. Apperantly she had some errands to run and rather than stick me with babysitting on short notice she had decided to take the twins with her. I just assumed that she was humoring me by coming to my tent, I never thought she or anypony for that matter would take the whole gypsy thing seriously.

I snuck in through the back, put on my gypsy outfit and walked outside. If only I had known that was going to be start of something very bad I would've told Mrs. Cake that I was only pretending and then offered to babysit for her. But of course I didn't know that so I began my routine. "Welcome my good pony, if you want to see what the future has in store for you you've come to the right place. Please step inside and let me work my magic."

Mrs. Cake followed me into the tent, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. "Allow me to introduce myself," I said in a singsong voice "I am "Madame Pinkie Pie", what's you're name?"

"I'm Mrs. Cake" she replied "And these are my two children. The white pegasus colt to my left is Pound Cake and the yellowish-orange unicorn filly to my right is Pumpkin Cake."

"So what can I do for Mrs. Cake?" I asked. What she said next should've set off my pinkie sense but for whatever reason it didn't.

"Well I've good things about you, and I was wondering if well, you see I don't want you to predict my fututre, I want you to predict my children's future if isn't too much trouble."

"Very well Mrs. Cake, if that's what you want then that's what you'll get." I replied "So stand back and prepare to be amazed." I began to chant and make wierd hoof motions and then I said in the most msytical voice I could conjure up "Gaze into the crystal ball, for it shall reveal all." Mrs. Cake did so and I made the best guess I could make under the circumstances "Ah I see your children's future, they will grow up to be fine young ponies, Pound Cake will become a mighty pegasus stallion and Pumpkin Cake will become a magical unicorn mare."

Mrs. Cake said nothing for a moment and then she replied "Well I can see the rumors about you are true. And now I can relax just a little knowing that my children have a bright future. I will make sure to tell everypony I meet about you and maybe I'll come and visit you again someday, but for now I have some errands to run. Thank you very much "Madame Pinkie Pie" I hope your future is as bright as the one you predicted for my children." And with that Mrs. Cake left.

I didn't think Mrs. Cake was serious and that her visit was simply to humor me so of course I wasn't worried. If only I had known that Mrs. Cake WAS serious about telling everypony she meet about my gypsy act and that I would soon have all of Ponyvillie asking for my predictions I would've spoken up much sooner. I would've said that it was all just a joke, nothing more.

But like I said nopony can predict the future. NOPONY!
