//------------------------------// // WHAT DID THAT CUPCAKE DO TO YOU!!!?? // Story: Too Much Of A Good Thing // by Angel Star //------------------------------// After waiting for almost an hour, I saw Angel coming back from her little…trip. She sat down on one of the chairs across from me at the table, and gave me another innocent look. "So," I started. "How's your stomach?" I started smirking at her, but then she kept giving me that innocent look. "It's fine Margaret! Why do you ask?" She said, smiling at me. "I asked you, because you had too many sweets! Plus, your starting to get really addicted to them! You NEED to stop!" I exclaimed, pointing an accusing hoof at her. She looked at me nonchalantly and said, "You know what Margaret? I just realized that that was a good break from chocolate-OH!!! Chocolate sounds so good right about now!" Before I could say anything, she already teleported out of the room. "OH COME ON!!!" Angel's POV I don't know what Margaret's problem was, but whatever, it's chocolate time! I was making my way over to Sugarcube Corner when I started to see Margaret running in my direction behind me. Uh-oh, this is not good! Thinking fast, I immediately teleported myself into Sugarcube Corner, walked up to the counter, and before I could ask Pinkie what I wanted, I spotted a peculiar looking cupcake just sitting there behind the glass. As for the cupcake itself, it was colored in different shades of brown and white, and had a LOT of colored sprinkles on it. Since I never seen the cupcake before, I asked, "Hey Pinkie? What type of cupcake is that?" Pinkie Pie stared wide eyed at it, and said, "Thats a very, very, VERY, very, lots of verys special cupcake!" Confused, I raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why is it special? Did you put some sort of special ingredients in it to make it taste good? Or maybe it has something to do with the way it looks?" "Nope! Well the special ingredients part was really close though, BUT it actually makes you-" Unfortunately, before Pinkie Pie could finish what she was saying, Margaret bursted in and looked really, REALLY angry at me….not good. She also started to slowly and dramatically walk towards me. I could of sworn I heard intense background music coming from somewhere. I started panicking, and quickly turned to Pinkie Pie and asked, "Pinkie quick! Before Margaret gets here! How much do you want for that cupcake?" "Are you sure you wanna buy it Angel? I mean the thing that it does is-" Dang it Pinkie! I ain't got no time for this! Almost desperately I said, "YES!!! I'm sure! Now just tell me how much you want!" "Okie dokie lokie! It'll cost you three bits!" She said cheerfully. "Here!" I put my bits on the counter, and Pinkie Pie handed me the cupcake. What I didn't know was that Margaret was only mere inches away from me! Before she could do anything though, I engulfed the cupcake. I couldn't believe it though! The flavors were dancing on my tongue in all their sugary glory! I felt amazing! No! I felt incredible! I felt like eating all the sugary sweets in the world! Wait, what? Margaret's POV Words cannot describe how ANGRY I was at Angel! Not only did she NOT listen to me, AND teleport away from me like that, but she ate a freaking cupcake when she WASN'T supposed to! In fact, I was so sure I got her this time…that is until she ate the cupcake and started getting really hyper. My anger just turned into confusion as I asked Pinkie, "Pinkie Pie? What the hay was in that cupcake?!" "Well lets see sugar, flour, a dash of cinnamon, some-" "Thats not what I meant! I mean why is the cupcake making her loco crazy all of a sudden? What did that cupcake do to her!?" Seriously, at that time she was speaking nonsense! Although, I did catch a few words here and there. She was saying something about 'all the chocolate in the world' or something like that. "Well, I was trying to tell her that the particular cupcake that she ate was a special cupcake. It basically makes ponies go all hyper for a while, and plus it makes them want to eat all the sugary sweets in the world!" She said, now standing on two legs with her arms in the air. "Well, is there a way I can calm her down?" I asked. "Oh! Just make her eat relaxing foods, and she should turn back to normal in no time." She said with a smile, while going back on all fours. "Alright!" Well that seemed simple enough! Just feed her relaxing foods? Easy! Wait a second, "Wait, what sort of relaxing foods?" "You know! Foods like crackers, tea, cereal, daisies. Those sorts of things!" O…K…"Alright, thanks for the advice Pinkie." "Oh, and you better hurry." She said. "Why?" I asked. "Because your friend's already going out that door!" She said, pointing at the doorway to the shop. "What!?" When I looked at the doorway, she was right. All I saw was Angel heading towards the exit quicker than usual, and the door opening and closing. A look of pure shock was plastered on my face as I said, "…..Well….that just happened…"
