//------------------------------// // Cake Disaster // Story: Diary of Inky the Changeling // by ThoraxFictions //------------------------------// Dear Diary, Some may say that I look weird. It’s true, I DO look weird. I live in a world full of ponies, while I’m a Changeling. The thing is, I’m a renegade Changeling, who left The Hive. One things for sure, I don’t wanna feel like a threat to these ponies. So all my personal thoughts are right in here, so I welcome you, into my daily life. ————————————— Ponyville. 5:15 For me, it’s pretty normal to have ponies look at me weird. But I try to, at least, ignore it. I do have a few friends. But I’ll talk about them later. I mean, a Changeling in a world of ponies? You can’t expect somepony to not give you a weird glance. Either way, this place is more colorful and calm. I actually like to visit Twilight Sparkle. She’s a pretty great friend. Oh! Speaking of friends, I’m friends with The Mane 6 (Though Rainbow Dash gives me a hard time), King Thorax, Spike, and even the Princesses of the Sun, Moon, and Love think me as kinda a friend. But I don’t know why. ——————————- Twilight’s castle. 5:15 Back to my day! So I was just sitting on Twilight’s bed (I think it’s comfy). But for some reason I hear a large boom from down the hall. Now, ponies would come running down. But me, I peeked out of Twilight’s bedroom door and trotted to wherever the noise came from. Now let me tell you, this castle is HUGE! I mean, it looks small from outside, but NOPE! It’s LARGE!! Anyway, I see some white dust on the floor, and then I start to get worried. “Guys?” I called, last I remember, Pinkie and Rainbow we’re gonna make a cake. But I don’t think it turned out so well. “Guys, are you in there?” I called again. I got more and more worried. I walked to the door and use my magic to open the door. To my relief, they were fine, but to my surprise... What is Queen’s name happened here!?” I yelled. There was cake batter everywhere, and eggs and sugar and flour and...all of that. But my real question was.. well.. HOW IN QUEEN’S NAME DID THEY MESS UP THAT BAD!!!??? I stood there in disbelief. “Guys...no joke, HOW DID YOU MESS UP THIS BADLY!” I shouted in confusion. Pinkie was the first one to speak up. “Well, we were making a cake for Twilight!” She tried to explain, but didn’t satisfy me. “Yeah! So we were making a cake, and....Uh...umuh....” Rainbow tried to cover up “ A SQUIRREL! Yeah! A squirrel came in and gained super strength and trashed the place!” Rainbow lied, with Pinkie agreeing. But there immature lies couldn’t hide from me. I let out a long sigh. I felt like I was a kid, being lied to and supposed to believe the parents. But I’m smarter than they think. “...you guys screwed up yourselves, didn’t you..” I said plainly with a “not buying it” look. Rainbow and Pinkie sighed and gave in. “How are we supposed to clean this up?” I asked. They both had a expression exchange, and Pinkie asked “When is Twilight coming home?” Using my soul magic, I pinpointed Twilight’s soul, which pinpointed me to her location, accordingly at the market, which means I can tell what time she’ll get back by looking at her timespan of being at her location, and...wow, I didn’t realize how weird and confusing my magic is. Anyway, I checked her returning time and how much time RD and Pinkie have left until she comes back. “So, she’ll be back at 5:25.” I answered. “And how long will that take?” Rainbow asking nervously. “According to the time, she’ll be back in 10 minutes.” I replied. Then RD and Pinkie started rushing to get the kitchen clean. As I stand there, just watching. After 2 minutes, an alarm startled me. I check Twilight’s return time, ONLY TO FIGURE OUT SHE JUST TELEPORTED BACK! “Hey guys!” Twilight called. I stared in shock. I didn’t know what to do. I just stared at her. Then, I just moved out of the way. “Uh...okay?” She said confused. I just buzzed away, only to hear the scream of “PINKIE! RAINBOW!” I actually told the local business colt. He told us that our electricity bill was high. Supportingly in the kitchen. “Well, you see sir I-“ Twilight was about to tell him. But I went ahead and did it for her. I just thought it be faster. “Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie wanted to make a cake for Twilight, but ended up exploding the cake batter and it got everywhere. So I went to check and when I did it was a mess. I told them when Twilight was getting back and they rushed to cleaning. Then Twilight came back and had a looooooong lecture to not mess up her kitchen.” I explained. I actually had to catch my breath. “I see, well, here is your electricity bill.” The business colt handed Twilight the bill. She took it, and guess what the pay was....... IT WAS 1,000 BIT’S! Apparently, whatever the did costed 1,000 bit’s. I was just dumbfounded. Twilight was irritated. “Excuse me for a moment” Twilight excused herself. I knew exactly what she was gonna do. She was gonna blow up at Rainbow and Pinkie. “I’ll pay” I sighed. I gave him the bit’s and he left. After he left, I got startled by Twilight’ scream. I snickered “Knew it”. I said. You know. King Thorax called me a couple minutes ago to see I was doing. “I’m doing good. But, I did have to pay for a electricity bill so..” All I heard on the other line was a gasp. “What? Why?” Thorax asked. I told him the whole story. That’s all I could really do. I’m not a good lier. Anyways, we got a good laugh out of it, and we can never forget about it. THAT’S how funny it was. Now I gotta go before Starlight forces me to the meeting Twilight has with the Mane 6. So, I’ll see you later. Bye!
