Mrs. Cake was walking to the town market looking for Applejack; it didn't take long.
"Excuse me," Mrs.Cake said.
"Ah! How can I help ya?" Applejack said happily, but her smile faded when she was Mrs. Cake’s face, "Is something wrong?"
"Yes," Mrs. Cake said as she told Applejack about Pinkie and Spike and the state they were in."...then they just kinda passed out, and their sisters asked if we could help them...limit themselves. I think they need an intervention."
"Say no more," Applejack said. "Hey, Big Mac!"
"Eeyup?"
"I gotta go to an intervention, cover for me will ya?"
"Eeyup."
"Thanks, Mac, ok Mrs. Cake don't let them leave Sugarcube corner, distract them until I've got everypony gathered."
"Alright, I'll try," Mrs. Cake said as she walked back to Sugarcube corner, and found her husband in the kitchen, "Honey I need you to write a fake order so we can keep Pinkie and Spike distracted!”
"I'm on it," Mr. Cake replied, having been told by his wife about the soon-to-be Intervention and started writing an order.
Nearby, Pinkie sat eating a bowl of marshmallow cereal, minus the cereal, with chocolate milk, with Spike drinking what might have been coffee, but it was so overflowing with sugar, it was impossible to tell. Mrs. Cake sighed. "Good morning, how'd you two sleep?"
"I slept fine, I just wish I could have stayed awake long enough to talk to my sisters." Pinkie said.
"But they've always had a lot to work to do so it's understandable, after all, those rocks aren't gonna move themselves," Spike said happily.
Mr. Cake then walked in through the kitchen door. "Pinkie, Spike when you're done with your breakfast, I need your help with a huge order. Some lunatic ordered eight dozen cupcakes with little cat designs, nine dozen doughnuts, twenty-seven dozen doughnut holes, and two XL cakes, one with a flower design, and one with a polka-dot design."
"Can do!" They both said happily.
"And remember the golden rule!"
"No eating on the job," they said in tune as they put on their aprons, and went to help in the kitchen, with the Cakes right behind them.
"I wonder if this will be enough?" Mr. Cake wondered.
"Should keep them busy for about 30 minutes," Mrs. Cake replied as they watched the Pie siblings bake.
Meanwhile, Applejack had gotten the Bearers of Harmony, along with Sweetie, Apple Bloom, and Owlowiscious.
“Alright,” Applejack said to the group when they got to the doors of Sugarcube corner, ”make sure you're slow to the point, we don't want them to run off on us.” The group walked in and found a lot of sweets on the counter. and the Cakes talking.
“…..should have made a bigger order,” Mr. Cake was saying before he saw them. ”Oh good, you’re here, they’re um….they’re upstairs.” There was a loud bang from upstairs. “We couldn't think of any way to distract them, and they ran upstairs.” The group moved upstairs and found the last thing they'd thought they'd find.
Pinkie and Spike had turned the room into a warzone, with two forts made out of their beds and two dressers each. Pinkie had Gummy in her hair, while Spike had Wallace wrapped in his tail, both were throwing what seemed to be an endless amount of frosted sweets, drinks, and other stuff at each other. Before anypony could even react to the sweet carnage before them, Pinkie pulled out her Party Cannon, Spike pulled out his Party Launchers, and Pinkie started firing large cakes with confetti at Spike, while Spike started firing a combination of cupcakes and water balloons at Pinkie.
“Hold it!” Rainbow Dash yelled, and both stopped and looked at her.
“Oh, hi Rainbow.” Pinkie said, soaking wet with frosting and chips in her hair.
“What's up!?” Spike said with frosting and cake randomly strewn across his body, one eye covered by a large chunk of cake.
“What in the name of Celestia are you two doing!?” Twilight asked as she looked around at the huge mess.
“We're having a disagreement on….things,” Pinkie said, back turned to Spike.
“Look, darling,” Rarity said, “I understand if you get mad at each other sometimes, but I don't think this is the way to solve your problems. It's just so barbaric.”
“Don't be ridiculous.” Spike scoffed, “We did the same thing last night, and we were both fine!”
“You were not,” Mrs.Cake said from the back of the group. “You two were a complete mess this morning. Pinkie you passed out just from walking around, and Spike you couldn't even walk!”
“She nailed me with a bag of jawbreakers,” Spike murmured.
“Just look at yourselves!” Applejack said “When I first met you guys were always happy to talk things out, and now you've resorted to….to this!? What the hay were you two even fighting over!?”
“What to get on our pizza,” they both said at once. There was dead silence.
“You two are attacking each other over pizza!?” Rainbow yelled. “Alright, look we love you guys but you’re out of control! Just look at yourselves!” They did so.
“Just look a poor Gummy,” Fluttershy added. “He's covered in frosting.” Pinkie frowned and looked up. Spike looked at his tail and frowned when he saw Wallace had some frosting and a candle on him. They both just looked down and said nothing.
“Ok, look,” Twilight said, “We’re gonna close this door, we're going downstairs, if you wanna talk to us about your problems, then clean up and come down too, or you can continue, and let your selves waste away.” And with that, they all left the room and closed the door. There was silence. Pinkie and Spike looked at each other.
“What are we doing?” Pinkie asked as she looked around. ”All this for what?”
“Over rather we should get stuffed crust or extra-cheesy with stuffed crust,” Spike said with a frown. “We've become a mess.” Pinkie walked out the door and went to get herself and Gummy cleaned up, while Spike cleaned the room. When Pinkie came back half the room was done, and they swapped so that once Spike had cleaned himself and Wallace up, the room was clean too. They looked at each other and walked downstairs.
“Oh, thank goodness you actually came down.” Owlowiscious said with a sigh of relief,” I thought you might have jumped out the window and ran off.” The group was sitting at one of Sugarcube Corner’s tables. Pinkie and Spike joined them.
“Alright,” Applejack said. “Let’s have a talk.”
