“Oh dear” gasped Rarity, looking at the state of Twilight’s kitchen.
“You got that right” exclaimed Rainbow. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen the kitchen this messed up.”
“What about that time I made my super ultra-mega surprise party cake!?” asked Pinkie.
“Well yeah, but that was that was because you made a cake full of party decorations blow up all over the kitchen” stated Rainbow.
“How exactly was that supposed ta work again Pinkie?” asked Applejack. “Ah mean it kinda just got bits ah cake everywhere.”
“Well that was just a test” answered Pinkie. “My new recipe is going to decorate the entire room while sending a hoof full of cake into every ponies’ mouths.”
Fluttershy put her hoof on the party pony’s shoulder. “Well it certainly is thoughtful Pinkie, but maybe you should keep non-edible things out of your cakes from now on. Somepony could choke or- “
“Or everypony at the party could spend the next week getting pieces of cake and confetti out of their fur and wings” grumbled Rainbow Dash.
“Girls could we please focus on them” interrupted Twilight, turning everyponies’ attention back to the kitchen.
Sanji stood at the kitchen trying to make some eggs without losing his balance at taking one of his forehooves off of the stove. The others weren’t having as much luck at trying to eat the food that had managed to make it to the table. Luffy was fine, having raided the pantry for anything that wasn’t healthy and was currently face first in his food. Nami and Usopp were trying in vain to pick anything up in their hooves; not wanting to eat “savagely” like their captain, and continuingly dropping their food on the floor. Robin and Chopper on the other hand weren’t having much trouble though as Robin had managed to pick up levitation rather quickly and was quietly snacking on a sandwich and some tea; while Chopper was eating as he always did. Kuina listening intently to the purple pony and deer as they told her of their adventures.
“Want us ta teach them how ta do things like ponies?” asked Applejack, watching as the blue stallion lost his balance and fell face first onto the kitchen’s floor.
“Exactly,” confirmed Twilight before her stomach growled and she blushed. “but first I really need to get something to eat. They kind of cleaned out my kitchen.” A large bag of bits then floated in front of the alicorn and she looked to the alabaster unicorn beside her who was giving her a generous smile. “Go ahead and take it darling I insist” instructed Rarity.
“But Rarity where did you get this much money?” asked Twilight, looking into the bag shocked at the sight before her.
“It’s the extra profit I received from my latest fashion tour. It’s not as if I’m desperate for bits now that my fashion line is the largest in Equestria after all and what kind of pony would I be if I didn’t share it with the ponies who helped make it all possible after all” explained Rarity.
Twilight was dumb struck at her friend as she answered. “Uh, wow Rarity, thank you so- “
Rarity then began pushing her friend away from the kitchen and towards the front door. “You’re very welcome dear, now no time for dawdling, we have much to do today and you sounded as if you’re starving so just leave everything to us.”
“Alright, as long as you girls are positive that you’ll be fine without me” said Twilight.
“No worries Twilight. We’ve handled way tougher jobs than this” reassured Rainbow Dash as the others nodded confidently behind her.
Twilight smiled back at her friends and nodded. “Right. Thank you and I’ll try to not take too long” stated Twilight as she left the castle.
Turning back to the kitchen and other world ponies Rarity glanced at her friends and stood confidently. “Alright girls, let’s teach these ponies so well that everypony else will think that they’ve been here for years.”
“Yeah!” cheered the others as they entered the kitchen.
- Meanwhile in Rainbow Falls
Celestia sighed in relief as the spa pony masseuse worked out a large knot in her back while she enjoyed sight of the beautiful falls from the spa’s outdoor relaxation area. “Isn’t this wonderful Tri-blade? The spas in Canterlot have nothing on the view and aesthetic of this place.”
“If you say so” grunted Zoro as he continued his pushups, causing his wife to sigh.
“Please dear, we’re at a spa. Can’t you at least try to relax and enjoy yourself?” asked Celestia.
“This is how I relax; besides I have hot rocks on my back, isn’t that enough?” asked Zoro.
“No” replied Celestia before she teleported her husband onto the massage table beside her and held him down with her magic while a pair masseuse began working on him. “Now relax properly. We promised Luna and Kuina we would” stated Celestia.
Zoro groaned, knowing that there was no arguing with Celestia when she was serious, plus he hated disappointing his daughter. “Fine” grumbled Zoro, finally relaxing under the practiced hooves of the professionals.
Celestia smiled triumphantly before she released her magical hold on her husband and resumed relaxing under her own treatment; giggling a minute later when she heard the familiar snores of the green stallion beside her.
- Back in Ponyville
“I’m ba-ahhh! What happened here!” shouted Twilight as she looked around the wreak that was her foyer.
“Ah Twilight!” exclaimed Rarity, her mane in an extreme state of disorder as she rushed to the unicorn and clung to her in a panic. “Thank Celestia you’re back! These ponies are impossible to work with and everypony else is exhausted!”
The alicorn princess could see pretty plainly from her view at the door that her friend wasn’t exaggerating. Nami and Usopp were struggling to get a hang of their wings, repeatedly crashing into things, each other, and on occasion a frustrated Rainbow Dash. Fluttershy was laying unconscious on the floor with Chopper working over her trying to make sure that she was alright. The most likely cause of which being the two Robins who were currently trying to look for supplies to help the doctor. Meanwhile, Luffy was swinging back and forth from the ceiling decorations using his new-found ability to grab things with his hoof and laughing up a storm with Pinkie who was on his back and Kuina who was flying beside them.
“Woo-hoo!” cheered Pinkie Pie. “Come on up Rarity this is such a blast!”
“You’re not helping Pinkie!” screamed Rarity, before she collapsed on the floor at Twilight hooves. “The only one having any luck is Applejack and that’s because she and Sanji are just cooking together.”
Another crash pulled Twilight’s attention away from her friend as she looked to see that another one of the hall’s vases had been broken by an out of control Usopp. “Oh boy,” groaned Twilight. “This is going to be a long day” she stated as the alicorn closed the door behind her with her magic.
