> The unfaithfulness of mrs. Cake > by Miss Hooves > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter one > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The unfaithfullness of mrs. Cake “Order in the court!” Celestia shouts “We’re all gathered here to talk about the latest issue in Ponyville. There’s no denying, we know you cheated on mr. Cake.” The Cake family had found a shocking letter on their doorstep earlier today, they had to come to court to discuss an important matter in Ponyville. When everyone capable of babysitting the Cake twins seemed busy they decided to give Pinkie Pie a chance. When mr and mrs. cake arrived at the court they heard the shocking news that the matter they where going to discuss would be their family. “I did no such thing!” Mrs. Cakes was very insulted. “What on earth made you think that?!”
 In the court there seemed to be mostly male pony’s. Mrs. Cake doesn’t know most of them. A few seemed to have both unicorn and pegasus features. Mr. Cake hold mrs. cakes hand because he knows that she could never cheat on him.

“The Cake twins, one of them is a pegasus and the other one a unicorn.” Celestia continued. “You and mr. Cake are both earth pony’s, therefore it is impossible to have unicorn and pegasus twins.” “My great-great-great grandfather was a unicorn, and Cup Cake’s great aunt’s second cousin twice removed was a pegasus!” Mr. Cake said to mrs. Cake’s defence. “She would never cheat on me, simply because she’s not capable of lying!” The ponies in the court seem quite confused, mrs. Cakes figured that they probably don’t even know why they are here, because it simply has nothing to do with them. She already figured that Celestia probably just invited all the ponies she thought could be the father of the baby Cakes. “Its not fair to the baby Cakes that they will never know who the father is. So therefore we are going to figure out who’s really the father of the baby Cakes.” Celestia looks around the court. “The first suspect we are going to summon is mr. Macintosh.” Big Macintosh walks to the chair where he is supposed to sit. While all other ponies in the audience seemed to already know why they are here, Macintosh still seemed clueless. “Mr Macintosh, have you ever been with mrs. Cakes without mr. Cake’s presence?” Celestia looks at Macintosh with great suspicion. “Nope” Macintosh answered, but Celestia isn’t very satisfied with that answer. “You do know that you will get in great trouble if we find out you’re lying today?” “Yep” Macintosh answered, leaving Celestia puzzled. “Well.. since it seems like you’re innocent, you can leave for today.” Macintosh seemed very happy with that and left immediately, he probably just wanted to continue collecting apples for the coming apple pie season. “Since mr. Macintosh is innocent.” Celestia continued -how could i even suspect him anyway..- “We have to summon the next suspect. “Dr. Whooves, come forward” and he came forward. Celestia: “Is it true that Mrs. Cakes visited you some time ago?” Whooves: “Yes.. Yes in fact she did, but that shouldn’t be any surprise, since she was still carrying the baby Cakes.” Celestia: “How about before she was pregnant?” Whooves: “Let me think.. oh yes.. Ive seen her! She brought in mr. Cake.. His hoove was pretty burned because he wasn’t carefull enough getting the cakes out of the oven.” Celestia: “Was there any visit that wasn’t related to your work?” Whooves: “Princess Celestia. Mrs. Cakes is my patient! I would never get involved with a patient. Besides, there’s this cute mare i’m dating at the moment, she has the cutest eyes of all Ponyville! She’s called Der...” Celestia: “Ok.. You can go now!” Dr. Whooves left the building. Celestia seemed to get bored with this.. Mrs. Cakes wondered why on earth she would waste her time on this case. It’s not her business wether of wether she has not cheated on mr. Cakes. “I summon mr. Cakes.” Celestia: “There must have been one time when you didnt believe in Mrs. Cake’s innocence.. Tell us about it..” Mrs. Cake doesnt worry about his answer, because she knows he has always trusted her. Mr. Cake: “One time she went to pick up some flower, she stayed away for hours.. The moment our baby Cakes were born, that moment came crashing back into my head, but she’s not capable of lying. So she hasnt cheated on me. The doubt in his voice made mrs. Cakes heart break to millions of pieces. > Chapter two > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It felt like a pretty winter wonderland, as young Celestia and Luna went present shopping for christmas day. They loved the pretty lights everywhere and the christmas feeling in the air. As they entered the toyshop it felt like they stepped into an entire different world. All those pretty toy trains, oh how Luna loved those. Celestia however saw something at the candy department, something she wanted very badly. A little filly girl desperately wanted to have the candy, her father didn't doubt for one second and immediately gave the girl the candy. Celestia could've care less about the candy.. She wanted a father. She wanted a father so badly. Luna finally stopped watching the trains and saw that Celestia was bothered by something. "Celestia.. Whats wrong?" A tear escaped the little filly's eye. "Celestia..." Twilight:"Celestia!" "huh?" Celestia snapped out of her little daydream. The court had been paused and she decided to see her faithful student for the hour she had. Twilight:"You seem to be bothered by something... Want to talk about it?" Celestia:"I just want this case to be solved.." Twilight noticed that Celestia didn't want to talk about this and decided to ignore it. She poured herself and the princess a cup of tea. Before the court continued mrs. Cake decided to move to another bench since she really didn't want to sit next to mr. Cake right now. He tried to follow her when the court paused after his time under oath, but when she didn't want him to comfort her he knew that something has been broken. Mrs. Cake spend the entire hour in the park, sitting on a bench just staring. Somepony's tried to talk to her, but she didn't even notice. "Order in the court! Let's summon our next suspect mr. Rich!" Filthy Rich came forward, mrs. Cake wondered how on earth Celestia could think that this would be her type of guy. Celestia:"Mr. Rich, is it true that mrs. Cake visited you a year ago?" Mrs. Cake:" Seriously? You immediately think of everypony I talked to that I have bedded them?" Celestia:"Silence mrs. Cake.. It's not your turn to speak." Mrs. Cake:"He's not even a pegasus, neither a unicorn, and still you think he can be the father but my own husband couldn't" Celestia didnt even think of that yet.. Her argument was totally right, but she couldn't let mrs. Cake know that. Celestia:"Silence! If there's even the slightest chance that he's the father then we would have to shut it out. So mr. Rich, did she visit you?" Filthy Rich:"Yes.. she did." Celestia:"Why did she visit you?" Filthy Rich:"She seemed to have money troubles, the cakes weren't selling that good at the moment. The muffin family from Canterlot visited ponyville for the summer, and they started selling their muffins. Ponyville seemed to want muffins rather than cakes back then." Celestia:'So she asked you for money?" Filthy Rich:"Yes. She did." Celestia:"What did you ask for return?" Mrs. Cake:"Oh for pete's sake!" Celestia:"Silence!" Filthy Rich:"I immediately decided to help mrs. Cake, since I really love cakes. I eat them with my family every sunday. We made the deal that when everything was going well for them again they would pay me back, and 1% of their earnings for a year on top of that." Celestia:"Thank you, mr. Rich. I think i've heard enough. You can go now." > Chapter three > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This will not do.. This will simply not do! Celestia felt the stares of everybody in the court. Mrs. Cake was completely right, it was ridiculous how she kept questioning simple earth ponies that were in fact no different from Mr. Cake. Surely there must be a way... wait.. why haven't i thought of this before?! "Bring back Dr. Whooves!" While waiting for Dr. Whooves to arrive mrs. Cake worried about how her little fillies were doing. Was Pinkie Pie really someone she could trust with something so small and fragile? Mr. Cake just sat next to her in silence, at first he tried to comfort her but came to the realization that he just couldn't. How could he ever comfort the one he didn't even trust himself? Ever since the baby cakes were born he just denied it. Nothing was wrong, the babies were his and it was just a weird genetical thing, but in his heart he knew his darling wive must have cheated on him. Dr. Whooves arrived back in the court. Celestia explained why Dr. Whooves was back. "There's only one way to solve this issue. We first have to rule out the possibility that mr. Cake is the father. Therefore, we need a DNA test. Will Mr. and Mrs. Cake please follow dr. whooves for the procedure?" After all that was needed was done, it was told that the results will come back in two days, the results would be announced at the next court session. > Chapter four > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I dont understand why you interfere in their personal issues.." Luna took a sip of her drink. "Shouldn't they be able to solve this on their own?" Luna just didn't get it. She didn't get why this would be an issue.. "There's children involved.. Those poor little cakes.. Because momma went to someone else they will NEVER know their very own father.. Isn't that a very sad thought?" Celestia was disgusted by it. "Being raised by just some pony that's NOT their father, rather a random stranger. They should know their father!" "We didn't know our father and we turned out right." suddenly Luna finally understood. "Wait a minute.. That's it, isn't it.. You miss our father.." Struck by the words, all Celestia's emotions she had hid all these years came back, and she cried.. Luna put her arms around her as Celestia asked the question she never got an answer to. "What happened to him?" Luna was a little confused when she heard that Celestia didn't remember what happened to their father. Their aunt Sola came by one day and told them their dad had been involved in an accident and had been brought to a hospital. She told them that she would inform them when he showed improvement. Luna waited for days, when a year later their aunt Sola visited. She was very upset, Luna saw the suitcases she carried with her. "He's not getting better, I kept telling myself he would be, but I can't wait any longer. I'm very sorry, Luna.." "Why do you have those suitcases with you?" The young Luna wondered. "I'm moving to a place far away, everything here just saddens me." "Do I sadden you?" Luna was disappointed by her statement. "and what about Celestia?" "Oh dear, I don't mean you two fillies, you are the only light among this place. Please continue being like that, bright and sunny.." "But what will happen to my father? Will I ever see him again?" Luna's eyes felt with tears and Sola answered "I'm afraid not, my dear.. He will go to a better place, a happier place.." "Are you going to a better place to?" a little smile appeared on Sola's face.. "Yes, i'm going to a better place as well.." "Sola didn't die however, she just moved.. Probably couldn't handle being constantly reminded of her brother.." Luna ended the story, leaving Celestia with new questions.. As Pinkie Pie left the Cake residence, all sign of a happy home left with her. The baby Cakes were asleep as mr. and mrs Cake just sat in their living room in death silence. It would remain quiet for hours until mr. Cake finally asked the question that had been on his mind for the past time. "Why... Why did you cheat on me?" "I can't believe you're actually asking me that!" The insulted mrs. Cake left the room as mr. Cake followed her. "We were happy.. Remember? Wasn't that the reason we married in the first place? Because we were happy?!" Mrs: "I did not cheat on you! I can't believe you actually believe Celestia over me." Mr. : "Oh please, look at our kids! They look nothing like me, they should have been earth ponies.." Mrs: "How could you not be happy with the blessing of our kids being different? " Mr. : " Maybe because that present involved you cheating on me?" Mrs: "I'm not going to discuss this with you anymore, why should I? You already believe i'm guilty!" Mrs. Cake left the room as mr. Cake still followed her. She locked herself up in their bathroom, where she just sat down and cried. Ignoring further statements mr. Cake shouted in front of the locked door. "Excuse me, my father was here years ago but sadly he didn't survive.. His name was Solar Nights, do you happen to know where I can visit his grave?" "I will look it up in the system for you, just a minute!" The nurse left to look in the documents, surely Celestia would get some closure if she could visit her dad and just talk to him.. The nurse came back looking a little puzzled. "Miss, there must be a misunderstanding.. Somepony named Solar Nights has checked in this hospital, however he never left.." Celestia didn't understand what the nurse just told her. "What do you mean by that?" "The Solar Nights that checked in here is still alive." > Chapter five > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Before you go in you must now, he has been living the same moment for years now.." They told Celestia that they were very sorry for this misunderstanding. The day after Sola left her father regained conciousness. They tried to contact Sola, but she left the country. Celestia and Luna's foster parents didn't get contacted, also they didn't contact the hospital since they thought Sola was right about their father not coming back. Celestia and her fathers caretaker entered the room, she saw a colt sitting in a chair. He was holding a picture of Celestia and Luna as babies and kept staring at it. "My darling angels... How I wish they were her right now.." He looked up from the picture, looking straight into Celestia's eyes.. "My.. you have grown, so much.." He recognizes me.. Just as Celestia was going to walk to him his caretaker stopped her. "wait.." Celestia didn't want to wait, she just wanted to hold her father. Something changed in the colts eyes, and his eyes went back to the picture. "My dearest Celestia and Luna.. So small and fragile." Celestia left the room, his caretaker followed. "I'm really sorry." "He recognized me! We had a moment, and he just forgot about it.." Eyes were streaming down Celestia's eyes. "Ever since he woke up, he had been waiting for someone he recognized. All he had was the picture of you and Luna to look to." His caretaker explained to Celestia. "He couldn't handle the pain of missing you, so we think his brain just decided to relive the happy moment of him looking forward to seeing his children again." "Will he ever be okay?" "Him knowing you've grown might be really good for him. You should keep visiting. However, we can't promise you that he will ever be able to remember anything more than this moment." *PLING!* Mrs. Cake got the pie out of the oven and handed it over to Rarity. "Mrs. Cake! You look horrible! Oh dear, I don't mean it like that.. but.. Are you okay?!" Why does she have to be this worrying, I can't handle that at this moment. "I'm fine.." Mrs. Cake tried, but she couldn't lie. Her eyes watered, and she just let herself fall to the ground. "Oh dear.. whatever has happened?" "Mr. Cake doesn't trust me anymore, ever since Celestia sentenced the court case about my baby's being non-earth pony's, this house has been a ghost town." Normally Mrs. Cake wouldn't share this personal issue with anyone, especially not Rarity, since she is rather fond of gossiping. "She did WHAT?" Rarity asked in disbelieve, but when she saw on mrs. Cake's face that this wasn't the response she needed she continued. "I mean.. How could they not believe they're mr. Cake's.. Magic happens around here all the time. I honestly don't believe you cheated, I think them being like this is a beautiful miracle." Mrs. Cake smiled at Rarity "Thank you.." "I'm going to help you with the store for the rest of this day.. I insist!" I never thought Rarity staying for the day would ever make me this happy. Mr. Cake has been gone the whole day. Mrs. Cake knows he won't be coming back today. She received a letter today, the results of the DNA test will be discussed in another court meeting. Rarity had been a great help today, Mrs. Cake believes she wouldn't have gotten trough the day without her. After the store closed, Rarity offered to stay. However mrs. Cake thought some time alone would do her good. However she couldn't stop thinking about this situation. How could mr. Cake not believe her? Why did Celestia do this to her? How will she ever get trough this night? "Thanks for letting me stay here, pal!" "ee-yup!" Macintosh answered. Mr. Cake looked around at the barn. It's nothing like his own house, however he really didn't feel like staying with mrs. Cake. While trying to sleep, all he could do was stare at the ceiling. How could she cheat on him? How could our fairytale life just end like this?" When entering the court, Celestia was filled with guild. How could she have ruined the marriage of the Cake family. Luna was right, she shouldn't have meddled with them. It makes her feel even more guilty that it was more about her feelings than theirs. However, she did get to meet her father. She sat down and looked at the cakes. "I have the results of the tests.. However, we don't have to look at them. I'm letting this case go." "Open them.. I have done nothing wrong." Mrs. Cake answered determined, and Celestia let out a sigh. "Very well.." She opened the envelope and read the results.. > Chapter six > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Celestia held the letter in her hands. She couldn't believe these results. "Mr. Cake, the results say that you are the father.." Mr. Cake couldn't believe what he just heard, he was filled with happiness. "Oh honey, I'm sorry I ever doubted you!" Mrs. Cake shook her head. "You didn't trust me, I don't know if I can ever forgive you for that.." Mrs. Cake ran out of the court, leaving behind two very guilty ponies. Mrs. Cake knocked at Rarity's door. Rarity opened the door and was surprised to see mrs. Cake. "Surprise.. The babies are mr. Cakes." She said in a jolly way, after that the smile on her face disappeared. "How can I ever forgive him for not believing me.." Rarity embraced the sad mrs. Cake. "You will.. Just give it time.." "I can't believe he's still alive!" Luna already said the same sentence a hundred times this day. Luna insisted on seeing her father right this day, so Celestia accompanied her. She told Luna about everything, how it might all get better if they just keep visiting him. However it might also not help and this will be very heartbreaking. They entered the room together, and they saw a colt. He was staring at the picture he was holding. "I love them so much.." When mrs. Cake entered her house, she saw it was decorated with a lot of flowers. Mr. cake was sleeping on the couch in the living room, on the wall there was a large sigh saying "I'm sorry!". He must've waited for her all night. Mrs. Cake woke him up. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he said was "I'm so sorry.." Mrs. Cake still felt mad, however she did appreciate all this work he did for her. She gave him a kiss on the cheek. "I have not forgiven you yet, however this is a good start." Mr. Cake was a little upset, however he knew that he couldn't expect her to forgive him this soon. Their relationship was built on trust and when she needed him to believe her the most, he didn't. They embraced each other. 1 year later. Luna and Celestia visited the carnival with their dad today. His memory still wasn't great, however his caretaker allowed them to go on their very first trip together. They had a lot of fun together, eating ice-cream and going in roller coasters. At the end of the day however he seemed to forgot were he was, and they brought him back to his room. "Here's your order, have a great day!" Mrs. Cake handed the cake over to Rarity. Mr. Cake entered the room and randomly embraced mrs. Cake. "Honey what are you doing?! There's a customer!" "Oh dear, I don't mind at all. I'm just glad you two are all happy again." Looking at them made Rarity a little envious, she hopes she will meet the colt of her dreams very soon. When she noticed that they completely forgot she was still there, she left the building. Mr. and Mrs. Cake were all wrapped up in their love for each other. Since mrs. Cake forgave him their relationship was better than ever. Their moment, however, was ruined when they heard a familiar sound from upstairs. "Oh no.." They rushed upstairs to comfort their twins.
