The Pancake Monster
One time after a long day of playing at the club house with Apple Bloom and Scootaloo, I came home and ate dinner. It just happened to be pancakes, since I requested that my mom make them for me when I got home. At some point during my meal, I accidently flung a piece of one of the pancakes off my fork. It flew through the air and rolled under the fridge. My mom thought she heard something so she turned around and asked, “Sweetie Belle, what was that noise I heard just now? It sounded like something got tossed under the fridge.” But I just gave her a sheepish grin and replied, “Oh it was nothing mom. It must have been your imagination.” So my mom shrugged and went back to cleaning up the mess she had made from cooking the pancakes.
Then exactly one week later I heard some strange noises coming from underneath the fridge. It sounded like something was gargling and growling underneath it. When I looked, I saw the piece of the pancake I had tossed underneath a week before. But now it was green, had sharp little fangs, and a pair of red beady little eyes. It let out a terrible yell and slithered out from underneath the fridge. When it caught sight of me, it begun to chase me around.
This went on for some time but then I realized something. The piece of pancake might have turned into a weird little monster, but it was a lot smaller than I was. It might be green and moldy but it was still a pancake. And pancakes are my favorite food in the entire world. So in honor of my love for all pancakes everywhere I stopped on my tracks and bravely faced the pancake monster. “I’m not scared of you!” I yelled, staring down the evil fiend. And then I reached out, grabbed the angry pancake monster, and I ate it in one giant gulp.
And that is how I defeated the evil pancake monster who was terrorizing my kitchen. Sometimes I feel a little bit sad when I think about how I ate it to stop its evil reign of terror. After all, it might have had a bright future if it hadn’t been carelessly tossed underneath the fridge. So that is why ever since that happened I am careful not to let any food escape from my plate when I am eating. I wouldn’t want to create any more food monsters by carelessly letting them fall onto the floor and leaving them to turn to a hardened life of crime.
