Spitfire has always been known to as the fearless Captain of the Wonderbolts. However, it wasn't always that way. When Spitfire is confronted by her best friend on a stormy night, she is forced to relive her worst memories and reopen wound that she previously thought had healed.

Author's Notes:
Kind of a one-shot I did after a 'spur-of-the-moment' inspiration from seeing Spittfire's tumblr (its really amazing) and realizing that there are few non-shipping Spitfire and Soarin fics. So I wrote this! I did not really get any proofreaders for this so I'm sure there's mistakes somewhere in there. Although it isn't my best piece (far from it), I'm pretty proud of how this came out!

As usual, leave comments, (constructive) criticisms and other stuff in the comments. I read all of them!

I hope everypony enjoys this story!

Edit 1: Italicized the flashbacks from the feedback! Hopefully this makes it easier to read!

Set in an alternate version of the Ponyville we're familiar with, Cupcakes: The Musical blends elements of our favorite horror story with the musical fun of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Here's the story:
This musical tells the story of Pinkamena Diane Pie, alias Pinkie Pie, who returns to Ponyville after 15 years' exile to the Everfree Forest on false charges. When she learns from her former landlady Rarity that her best friend has died, due the actions of the friendship-hungry Judge Twilight Sparkle (who's bought the "loyalty" of Rainbow Dash), she vows revenge in the best ways she knows: through baking and singing!

Credit goes to Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler for the 1979 musical from which the music is drawn and Sergeant Sprinkles for the story from which this draws inspiration.
