It is the mid-nineteen seventees, and Cupcake and Carrot Cake are two young ponies discovering their powers for the first time in a world that doesn't fully understand them.
Their world however, is turned upside down when they are called upon to stop a griffin bent on world domination. Banding together with a group of fellow mutants, they will form a team whose name will eventually become synonymous with the word 'hero'.
They just don't know it yet.
Special thanks to Cliff Robotnik for all of his ideas, which were vital to helping develop this story.
Yes I finally decided to write this. Figured I should at least give the backstory to the two most important mutants and one of the most important hero teams in my universe now instead of later right? Addmittedly, I'm making this more like Indiana Jones and '60s Bond films then X-Men: First Class, but don't worry, I'm not completely disregarding X-Men: First Class.
Set in the same universe as all my other Harmony's Warriors stories, but luckily, you don't need to have read those to read this one.
And so, the tale of the mutant ponies begin.
3461378 Yes it has.
Hopefully, if everything goes right, the next chapter will be ready by tomorrow.

Really good can't wait for the next chapter and our insane chat again while you are working on it
7 views and It's already under popular stories on the homepage. Gotta love that heat system.
3461596 Oh my god at this rate i might get featured
How's this for a cover art?
Also noticed something in the story info:
Her name is spelled Cup Cake. 2 words; which shows her (soon to be) family name.
3461710 Carrot Cake's face makes me laugh.
But yeah in this case, I made it one word, because referring to her as just "Cup" would get rather...confusing.
Did my good deed(other than proofreading), and put the info for this story on the Harmony's Warrior TV Tropes page.(I just let others who know more about tropes actually put in the tropes)
3461751
Now that you mention it, he does say her name as all one word in the show; opening of Baby Cakes for example.
Anyway, cover art is up for grabs. Knock yourself out.
3461801 EXCELLENT.
I'll probably add a few later on.
So, Griffon Nazis... it works
As I've said before, I'm not incredibly familiar with the Marvel universe (much less the X-Men), so this should be interesting
Carry on
Nic star, but who's Mystique in this world of yours ?
Still keep up the good work.
3462506 It shall be revealed next chapter where she is introduced.
Hopefully I can get it up by either noon tomorrow or tomorrow evening.
If you wish, I can invite you to proofread, do you have a g-mail?
Fassbender! I get it...
So that would mean Pound=Pietro/Quicksilver and Pumpkin=Wanda/Scarlet Witch.
Just remember Scarlet Witch's mutation isn't magic, it's the manipulation of probability fields.
3462581 And you are correct on that account!
And I didn't know that, thank you for the information!
Sebastian Shaw... The most screwed up mother bucker in the whole rogue gallery of X-Men villains. Nice choice. But won't this conflict when you bring in Gilda in X-Questrians?
3462892 No not really.
I never said that the team was exclusively pony based....
(and by the way, I'm having trouble with the next chapter, care to come and help?)
3462898 Sure. Just be warned if you bring up you-know-who I'm gonna go on a long tirade like I nearly did on that post TheInvincibleIronBrony posted
3462912 Who?
3462912 BTW I'm sending it now.
Whelp.
Classes didn't let me comment after reading this, freaking night classes...
In any case, this was a great start to this story, and a nice expansion to the universe you're creating.
I'm looking forward to seeing how this blends with the rest of your lore.
This will be VERY interesting
I'm guessing cupcake is mystique since I know those two get together. If you do the origins with Gilda I wonder her brother/sister will be.
3464508 Actually Cupcake is Professor X
Shouldn't "Equestrian" be "equine"? I assume that there are ponies who live outside of Equestria, yes?
Redundant.
Great chapter. I look forward to the rest.
3470609 Ah thank you, I will fix it now
like this?
3471665 Yes now what did you think of it so far?
3471673well, i never saw X-Men First Class, so i come in with no expectations...
A Ringo doll, really? Why him and not Paul?
3471696 Ringo was the most popular Beatle in America
3471684 Well, even then, what do you think?
3471700 I did not know that.
3471701 it is good so far, though i must admit my X Men lore is fairly spotty...i think in the comics that Charles father was a gold digging jerk...
3471716 Well, obviously the comics aren't the end all be all of my universe, so differences are to be expected.

Got a little confused when you switched to Fleur's POV, but I think I got it
Good story. Keep it up
Hmm... Mystique is a villain in the X-Men movies, though. This is going to be an interesting development.
Honestly I thought fleur would be the girl who could change into crystals.
3473881 That's Emma Frost.
Captain Equestria reference. Dis gun b gud.

I think I have seen it suggested before as a mashup, but I've never seen anyone actually making something of it! It will be nice to see what you can do.
Of course, the actual Charles Xavier did douche stuff like that all the time, though mostly when he grew up.
3492265 Yeah I'm going out of my way to do that in this story. I'll make a point that Cupcake never does that type of mind-screw stuff unless it's quite literally the only way to solve the problem.
Lucky foal... she gets to know the whole story already.
Also, Blackhawks?

You, sir, are awesome.
3496814 I told ya this universe was including DC.
This chapter! I like it!
ANOTHER! *slams Laptop on floor*
...
Well, Sht
3576895 Glad you liked it!
Any other thoughts?
3576905 other than that one complain about the comma's I always have, nope.
All my things with it are purely stylistic.
Though you could maybe delve deeper into the mental pains that Cupcake goes through
3576918 Well I can always have it next chapter and the ensuing chapters.
Just because she can control it doesn't mean it still doesn't decide to bite her in the plot every so often
