CMC: The Third Generation

Ch.20 Baking

Over the next few weeks, the crusaders kept trying to earn their cutie marks. One day, Sugar Sweets came up with the idea of baking.

"Baking?", asked Orion

"Yeah, my mom works at Sugarcube Corner. So she can probably help us out", explained Sugar

"But it sounds so lame", complained Zap Bolt

"C'mon Zap, it'll be fun", begged Aria

"Oh alright", replied Zap

"CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS BAKERS YAY", cheered The Crusaders

They walked into the bakery and saw a heavily pregnant Pinkie Pie.

"Hey there kids", greeted Pinkie "How can I help you?"

"Hey mom", replied Sugar "Do you think you can help us earn our cutie marks in baking?"

"Sure, come on in"

The crusaders walked into the bakery. They divided into two groups (Colts and fillies) and started baking. After they put them in the oven, they started to relax.

"Now we wait", said Orion

They sat around doing nothing for a couple of minutes until Pinkie hopped in the kitchen.

"Hey guys", greeted Pinkie "Are the cakes ready"

"They are now", said Sugar taking the cakes out of the oven

The girls cake turned out great. But the boy's cake was burned and messy. Suddenly, Pinkie hunched over in pain.

"What's wrong mom?", asked Sugar

"I think Im having the foal"

"WHAT?!", the crusaders said in unison

"What do we do?", asked Cortland

"Go get-OW…Cheese", said Pinkie

"Zap, your the fastest out of all us", said Orion "Go find Cheese"

"On it", said Zap flying away

"How are we gonna get to the hospital?", asked Aria

"Don't worry", said Orion "I got this"

Orion performed a spell. Suddenly, the crusaders and Pinkie teleported to the hospital. Meanwhile, Zap was flying through Ponyville, until he saw Cheese Sandwich. He flew straight down to him.

"Hey Zappy", greeted Cheese "What's up?"

"No time *pant* Pinkie has *pant* gone into labor", explained Zap catching his breath

"WHAT?! But the foal isn't due for another week"

Cheese grabbed Zap, put him on his back, and ran straight for the hospital. When he got there, he was right by Pinkie's side. The kids were waiting with Cheese Whiz in the waiting area.

"I really hope Mom's ok", said Sugar

"Don't worry sweetie", assured Meteor Blitz "Your mom will be ok"

Blitz kissed her cheek and wrapped his hooves around her. Meanwhile, Zap and Whiz were chatting.

"You know Zap, I thought you were kinda cool when you were flying super fast", complimented Whiz

"Thanks", replied Zap "Too bad I didn't get my cutie mark in baking though"

"But you did get your cutie mark in speed"

"Huh?"

Zap looked down at his flank and saw his cutie mark. It was a yellow lightning bolt.

"Huh, cool", said Zap

A couple minutes later Cheese came out of the room.

"WOO HOO", cheered Cheese while shooting the party cannon

Whiz, Cheese, and Sugar walked in the room and saw Pinkie holding a small pink earth pony foal with brown spots on it's eye, muzzle, flank, and hooves. It's mane was brown with pink stripes.

"Kids, meet your new brother Choco Berry", introduced Pinkie

"I can see why you called him that", said Sugar

"Yeah, he looks like a chocolate covered strawberry", added Whiz

"He sure does", said Cheese noggying his son

The Pie-Sandwich family welcomed a new member of the family. Who may be a future party planner.
