(And other ponies too...) The sun shone on the lake, rising slowly and shining on a small town: Ponyville. A green pony trotted happily down the cobblestone streets of Ponyville. Her mane was a light pink color, and was puffy and bounced with each step. Her cutie mark was 3 mints. "Good morning, everypony!" Minty exclaimed, even though nopony was out on the streets. Well, exept for Pinkie Pie. She was magenta, with a light pink mane just like Minty's. Her cutie mark was 3 balloons, one yellow and two blue. "Hey, Minty!" Pinkie Pie replied to Minty. Both ponies were BPFFs (best pony friends forever) and Pinkie usually had to make sure Minty didn't completely go crazy. Well, Minty was quite a clumsy pony and often tripped over her own hooves. Ponies started coming out of their homes, each yawning and smiling at Minty. They all knew how Minty woke up earlier than everypony and though it to be cute, since Minty was a little younger than everypony else. "Good morning, darling Minty!" a cyan pony with a rainbow mane said, trotting up to Minty. Her cutie mark was a pretty arched rainbow stretching between two clouds. "Hey, Dashie!" Minty greeted Rainbow Dash cheerfully. "Darlings, I have excellent news! Darling Sweetberry needs somepony to help her make a cake to commemorate the Cotton Candy Cafe's 20th anniversary! You, darling Minty, should help. Your'e great at making candy." Rainbow suggested to Minty. "Great idea, Dashie!" Minty said, waving her hoof as she trotted off. Sweetberry smiled and waved from behind the counter. She was a raspberry-colored pony with a berry cutie mark. Her mane was teal, pink, and white, and she wore an apron with her cutie mark on it. "Hey Minty, are you going to help with the cake?" Sweetberry said cheerfully as she trotted over to Minty. "Yup!" Minty said, marveling at the piles of cake mix, candy, berries and other ingredients around the cafe. "Maybe we should.... ooh! We should take an ingredient from everypony in Ponyville. Then we can use each in a special cake that truly represents everypony's contri... contributions to the cafe!!" Minty exclaimed suddenly, Sweetberry surprised at the great idea Minty came up within in under a minute. "Great idea, Minty!" Sweetberry exclaimed. "But that would take a lot of time, a resource that we don't have a lot of. We need to make the cake by tomorrow night. That isn't really a lot of time, Minty" Sweetberry told Minty sadly. "Maybe I could get Dashie and Triple Treat to help!" Minty said. Triple Treat was a lavender pony with a yellow and pink mane. Her cutie mark was 3 lollipops, showing her special talent: Candy- Making! She often made mints for Minty because, duh, Minty loved mints! "Hey Triple!" Minty said as she trotted into Triple Treat's house. She took a big whiff of the candy from the jars lining the walls. "Hi, Minty! Come for some mints?" Triple said, coming in from the candy kitchen where her special candy was made. "Well, I would like some, but that's not what I came for. Sweetberry needs some help making a cake for the 20th anniversary of Cotton Candy Cafe and she and I though you could help us!" Minty explained to Triple as she looked around at a jar of mints. "Sure! I've got nothin' better to do!" Triple Treat told Minty happily. The two mares trotted to the cafe. The small bell on the door tinkled as they walked in, Rainbow and Sweetberry waiting for them. "Hello Darlings!" Dash greeted Triple Treat as she walked in. "Well, let's get started!" Sweetberry exclaimed as she picked up a big-ish bowl with her hooves. "Time to get cooking!" Chapter 4: Waterfall- First Stop!Chapter 4: Waterfall- First Stop! Minty yawned as she woke up. A party can take a lot out of you! "Waugh!" A tiny voice called out. "What! Huh!" Minty called out, looking around frantically. A small yellow figure slammed into Minty as it screamed more. She picked up the small yellow Breezie that had slammed into her. It's mane was cream-colored, and antennae was sticking out of it. Its cutie mark was a small yellow flower. "ZipZee! What are you doing here?" Minty asked a frazzled ZipZee. "I found this gigantic flower that Lily Lilacs was growing. It was so beautiful, I had to get a better look! I flew in to sniff it, but then my allergies kicked in. The flower was so big, and my allergies went into overdrive. I sneezed such a big sneeze that I blew all the way to Ponyville!" ZipZee explained. "Ha ha!" Minty laughed goodnaturedly. ZipZee straightened out her small, bug-like wings as she gave Minty a fake grumpy look. She stood up and flew in the air, crossing her hooves. "Are we gonna garden or what?" ZipZee said, giving Minty the "evil eye". "Whaa...." Minty said, confused. Did she forget something? "Well, I just thought maybe we could garden, I am a Breezie" ZipZee said, her voice becoming less grumpy. "Well, maybe Wystie can help. She knows you the best of all the ponies in Ponyville!" Minty smiled sweetly. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• "Well, hello, ZipZee! I didn't know you were coming to visit!" Wystie smiled as she watered a bed of pink flowers similar to the ones on her cutie mark. "What're you doing in Ponyville?" ZipZee explained, adding that she wanted to get back to Breezie Blossom quickly to help with the biggest flower contest. "The what?" Minty asked ZipZee. "Oh, it's a contest between the best flower tenders in the Blossom to grow the biggest flower ever! Whoever wins gets all sorts of cool gardening tools!" ZipZee explained. "Wow. Hey Wystie, you should join!" Minty exclaimed. "Sorry, Mint, but I'm not a Breezie!" Wysteria said laughing. "Well..." Minty thought hard about Breezies. Breezies can make a little bit of magic, maybe enough to turn Wystie into a Breezie! "Minty, do you want to turn me into a Breezie? Well, I can't. I'm scared that I might not turn back if I do!" Wystie explained to a downhearted Minty. "Well, we have to get back to the Blossom, or I'll miss that contest!" ZipZee huffed. The 2 ponies and Breezie set out, each pony with saddlebags in tow. There was a nice road leading out of Ponyville, so the girls used it. "Woah, what a view!" Minty said as they reached the Rainbow Waterfall. The girls had to take a detour through Butterfly Island in order to get to the Blossom. The only other option was the caves under the castle, and nopony had ever been down there in quite some time. Minty was the first to jump through the waterfall. Although the waterfall cascaded down on her, she still managed to jump through. But Wysteria wasn't so brave. "Come on, Wystie! We've gotta get back NOW!" ZipZee encouraged Wystie, a little pushy in doing so. "I don't know, ZipZee. I doesn't look very safe..." Wysteria said shyly. "Nonsense, Wystie! Even Rainbow can do it, and you KNOW she hates getting her mane wet!" ZipZee encouraged, pushing her a little towards the waterfall. "I... I'll try!" Wystie said nervously, inching slowly towards the waterfall. She lept forward, bracing herself for a hard blast on the back. But surprisingly, the waterfall was gentle, and she landed on the other side. "Why did ya take so long?" Minty asked. "Well, let's say I was a little scared of nothing." Wystie said jokingly. Chapter 5: The More The Mare-ier!Chapter 5: The More the Mare-ier! The adventurers trotted into the gateway to Butterfly Island. A light blue Pegasus pony with a yellow and fuchsia mane flew over to them. Her cutie mark was flowers and leaves in a tangle. "Hi guys! *whistle* It's me again! *whistle* You want to go to the island? *whistle*" Thistle Whistle said quickly, whistling as usual. "Hey Thistle! Can you take us to the entrance to the Forest of Unicorns?" Minty asked. They had to go through the forest in order to get to their next stop, Unicornia. "Sure!*whistle*" Thistle Whistle replied as she picked up Minty in her mouth by Minty's saddlebags. As they flew across the island, Thistle Whistle asked if she could join the expedition. "Sure, a pegasus friend would be a great help!" Minty replied. The four adventurers looked around the sandy beach landscape of Butterfly Island, as a small white pegasus shyly trotted up to them. "Uhh..." she staid shyly as she backed away with her lime green and magenta mane falling over her face. "This is Baby Honaloo-loo! She's a bit shy! *whistle*" Thistle said cheerfully, pushing Honaloo-loo forward. "Wow-a-real-Pegasus-filly-I've-never-seen-one-before!" ZipZee said faster than normal. "Erm..." Honaloo said shyly. "Sorry, Breezies can be very curious." Wysteria apologized. "It's okay! *whistle* Honaloo-loo is like this all the time *whistle*" Thistle explained. "Ummm......" Honaloo ummed. "It's ok, you don't have to go on the mission if you don't want to!" Minty smiled at the filly. "O- OK." Honaloo stuttered. "Come on! *whistle* Let's go!" Thistle Whistle said, waving a hoof towards the small sandbar-thing that led to the Forest of Unicorns. The path was very skinny and unstable, piles of sand falling into the water below. Even with ZipZee and Thistle Whistle flying above, the weight of Minty and Wystie was enough to unstabilize the sandy path. "This doesn't feel safe..." Wysteria quivered shyly. "Nah, it's solid as a rock!!" Minty said cheerfully, jumping up and down on the sand to prove her point. Just then, the sandbar path completely collapsed around them, Thistle Whistle grabbing Minty with her mouth, pulling her up on throwing her over to the side where the forest path started. "Sorry..." Minty blushed. "Urghh!!" ZipZee grunted as she tried desperately to pull Wystie up, but, being so small, she had quite a hard time, flapping her wings in double time. "Help meeeeee!" Wysteria said as she started to fall into the ocean, ZipZee losing her grip as she hovered in the air. "We've got to save her! *whistle*" Thistle said as she grasped a small bit of Wystie's mane in her teeth. She grunted as the water started to pull them both under. Minty was staring at the scene from the shoreline, wishing she could help. Suddenly, a blue aura surrounded both the pegasus and the lavender earth pony. A yellow unicorn with a red-and-pink mane jumped out of the bushes. She skillfully lifted the two ponies and the Breezie to the shore with her and Minty. "Thank you..." Wysteria started, but didn't know this unicorn, or any unicorn for that matter. "Brights Brightly, Miss!" the elegant unicorn said proudly. "And I'm Wysteria! This is Minty, ZipZee, and Thistle Whistle!" Wystie introduced each of the adventurers. "Yup! *whistle* Thanks for savin' us!" Thistle Whistle said. "Well, I do appreciate your thanks! I would be glad to join your adventure, and I AM a unicorn! I can help!" Brights said, and although exited, kept a calm state throughout. "Cool! A real life unicorn!" ZipZee said, then bombarded the unicorn with questions. "Yes, I'm actually a unicorn, no, I don't poop rainbows, but that would be cool, yes, I like rainbow berry juice, yes, I can do magic, wait what? What's a pegasus pony?" Brights Brightly said, raising an eyebrow at the end. "It's a pony that can fly! *whistle* Like me!" Thistle Whistle said, pointing to herself and puffing out her chest proudly. "Enchanting!" Brights said, her eyes gleaming. "So I'm assuming that you want to come with us? I don't think 5 ponies need to go to the Blossom, it's not that dangerous!" Wysteria said, holding up a hoof. "But it will be more fun with more ponies!" Minty argued. "I guess..." Wystie said defeatedly, as the team set out to the dark forest ahead of them. Author's Note Just a note, Brights Brightly has an accent like Rarity's, but it would be hard to read if I typed it. Chapter 6: Forest Expedition!Chapter 6: Forest Expedition The 5 adventurers trotted/flew into the dark forest, the lightberries, berries that glow in many colors, being the only light to see by. "Wow! *whistle* It's so cool!" Thistle Whistle said, staring in awe at the soft glow of the berry trees. Brights Brightly was tip toe-ing, not wanting to get her hooves dirty. "Oh, look at all of the flowers!" Wysteria awed. The five adventurers trotted deeper into the forest, and it got darker. Only the glow of ZipZee let them see. "I know! We should sing!" Minty yelled, smiling. A song always cheered everypony up when they were down. "Umm..." Wysteria stuttered. She had always been afraid of the dark, ever since she was a little filly. "OK..." Minty said sadly. They trotted into a small cave to stay for the night. "Oh, how dreadful!" Brights exclaimed, being used to sleeping in a cushy, posh bed in a big castle. A pair of yellow eyes flashed in a thicket of trees, making the adventurers scream like little fillies. "What is that?" Wystie asked, pointed her hoof shakily at the figure emerging from the trees. It was a small, pink unicorn. Her mane had sticks and mud in it, and she was scratched up pretty badly. She turned towards the five adventurers, and as she looked at Brights, her eyes became scared. "ErmUhGottaGoBye!" she said quickly before running off. "Well, that was akward!" Minty smiled. "I bet we'll see her in Unicornia!" The five adventurers trotted cautiosly out of the cave after the night had ended. However, the forest was still as dark as ever. "Well, let's get a move on! We will be late for ZipZee's thingy if we don't!" Minty said pushily. She was already far ahead of the others. The end of the forest neareed. "Here we are!" Brights Brightly said, as a light came toward them, or maybe the other way around. Author's Note This is another super short one! Heh heh... Chapter 2: Cake-Making CrisisChapter 2: Cake-Making Crisis The 4 mares trotted over to a table with Sweetberry's bowl on it. They were exited to cook, but first, they needed a plan. "What should we do?" Sweetberry asked everypony as the ponies each thought of an idea. "Well, of course darlings, it should be about rainbows!" Rainbow Dash said as she grabbed a rainbow-shaped piece of candy from a bowl on a nearby table. "Maybe it should be mint-flavored!" Minty said as Triple Treat rolled her eyes at Minty's obvious choice. "It should be made out of berries!" Sweetberry suggested. "It should be a triple deluxe three layer cake!" Triple Treat blurted out suddenly. "Huh?" The other three ponies said as they exchanged puzzled glances. "We should have three layers: one can be rainbow-y, one can be mint-flavored, and one can be berry-themed." Triple Treat explained to the puzzled ponies. "Darling idea, darlings!" Rainbow Dash said, patting Triple Treat on the back. And so the four ponies got to work, each working on her respective cake layer, Triple Treat helping everypony in general. The cake turned out great, just as she had expected. The ponies just had one question: does it represent the cafe? The answer: yes. Each pony who had worked on the cake was represented in the cake. And the ponies were ready to party. Author's Note Sorry everypony, this chapter is kinda short! Chapter 3: Party PooperEpisode 3: Party Pooper "Let's Part-Tay!" Minty cried out, throwing some confetti into the air. All of the ponies trotted over to the cake, showing various degrees of hunger. But one pony had a scowl on her face. The flower-loving periwinkle pony was not pleased. "Don't you just love it?" A lavender pony said to her, staring in awe at the small pink flower garnish on the side. Wysteria, another flower lover, thought the garnish was a nice touch. But the periwinkle pony was not so pleased. She gave Wystie a grumpy look. "What's wrong? I thought you liked flowers?" Wystiria asked Daisy Jo, a confused look on her face. "There should be more. Doesn't Sweetberry have any respect for other ponies' interests?" Daisy said grumpily. She trotted up to Sweetberry as she was about to give a speech. "This isn't a cake! It is an abomination!" Daisy Jo yelled at Sweetberry. "Don't you have any respect for flowers?" "I... Uh... I put a flower garnish on it..." Sweetberry stuttered. Sweet was surprised at Daisy's angry reaction. "I refuse to eat this horrible cake!" Daisy Jo said as she stormed off. "Well, that was awkward!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed before taking a huge bite and yelling, " Dig in!" But Sweetberry still felt sad about what Daisy Jo had said to her. She wanted to face up to the mean mare. She worried that some ponies, Wysteria in preticular, since she was also a friend to the flowers, would hate it as well. "Uhh..." Wysteria approached the unhappy equine. "I apologize for my friend's actions. She was very inconsiderate." she explained. "I still don't feel like I am being considerate to her." Sweetberry said sadly, as Minty trotted up to them. "Hi guys, why so glum?" Minty greeted them cheerfully. "I thought you'd be celebrating like everypony else!" "Uhh... Daisy Jo..." Wystie started. "Ohhhhhhh!!!!!!!!" Minty exclaimed. She had heard the whole thing, but so had everypony else. "We've got to give her a taste of her own medicine!" "But Minty, that might just make her do it more!" Wysteria exclaimed. "True, true" Minty mused. "What are you dumb mares standing around for?" Daisy Jo's voice called out. "Err..." Wystie stuttered shyly. "Daisy, I heard that you don't appreciate our cake's design?" Sweetberry inquired of Daisy, raising one eyebrow. "Yeah, didn't I tell you already? Now, you can appreciate what we made for you, or keep your muzzle shut, please?" Sweetberry scolded. "Uhh... Well.. I just though you weren't thinking of me, not making it all things that I like..." Daisy apologized. "But I've got my eye on you!" Daisy said before running away. "You showed her!" Minty said, punching the air. "Well, she was being a bit of a party pooper!" Sweetberry said smiling. The ponies dug into the cake as they partied throughout the night. Chapter 7: Princesses of Unicornia"Woah..." Minty said, her jaw dropping as she and the others took in the kingdom. A large castle stood in the middle of the kingdom, and unicorns milled around, chatting and running their daily activities. "Can we see the princesses?" Wysteria asked. "You've already seen one." Brights replied, smiling mischievously. "Whaaaaaa??" the others gasped. "You're a princess?" Minty asked. Thistle Whistle whistled appreciatively. "Yep!" Brights said. The others bowed, well as bow-y as a four legged creature could on all fours. "There are 4 of us, well, there used to be anyway." Brights continued. "Whaddya mean?" Minty asked. "It's a long and sad story, but I'll tell you the short of it." Brights said sadly. :::::::::::::::::::::::: Once, long ago, in the kingdom of Unicornia, there were four unicorn princesses. Unlike the Alicorns in legends, they only had a horn. The princesses each used their unicorn powers to create the first rainbow of the season. Each of them represented a color of the rainbow, and they had been chosen by the elder of Unicornia, who for a long time had taken all of the responsibilities of creating the rainbow. But she had grown old and could no longer carry on her duties. So each princess represented a color of the rainbow, the one that they took responsibility for. Princess Rose represented pink, Princess Brights Brightly was yellow, Princess Cheerilee embodied purple, and Princess Whistle Wishes brought blue. However, Princess Rose was much older than the other princesses, as they were but little fillies. As she grew older, she became unable to preform her duties as princess, and she passed away, much to the dismay of the Kingdom. However, a new princess was born, and the other princesses believed she would be the new bearer of the rainbow. Now the princesses continues their duties, and Cheerilee took responsibility for pink as well. Soon, the pink princess will come of age, and take responsibility for her color of the rainbow. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::: "That was long." Minty said. "And saaaaaad!!!!" Minty bawled. "Well, who's the new princess?" Wysteria asked. Brights just sighed. "What's wrong?" Minty asked, considerable concern showing in her face. "Hey, sis! Lookie here!" a pink unicorn called, trotting over to the ponies. Her rainbow-colored mane had sticks in it, and her hooves were muddy. Her face glistened with sweat, and she was panting. She was levitating a small creature with her magenta-colored magic. "Well, Princess Rarity, what have you got now?" Brights sighed
Chapter 1: Meet Minty!Episode 1: Meet Minty!! (And other ponies too...) The sun shone on the lake, rising slowly and shining on a small town: Ponyville.

"Sure! I've got nothin' better to do!" Triple Treat told Minty happily. The two mares trotted to the cafe. The small bell on the door tinkled as they walked in, Rainbow and Sweetberry waiting for them. "Hello Darlings!" Dash greeted Triple Treat as she walked in. "Well, let's get started!" Sweetberry exclaimed as she picked up a big-ish bowl with her hooves. "Time to get cooking!"
Chapter 4: Waterfall- First Stop!Chapter 4: Waterfall- First Stop! Minty yawned as she woke up. A party can take a lot out of you! "Waugh!" A tiny voice called out. "What! Huh!" Minty called out, looking around frantically. A small yellow figure slammed into Minty as it screamed more. She picked up the small yellow Breezie that had slammed into her. It's mane was cream-colored, and antennae was sticking out of it. Its cutie mark was a small yellow flower. "ZipZee! What are you doing here?" Minty asked a frazzled ZipZee.

Wystie smiled as she watered a bed of pink flowers similar to the ones on her cutie mark. "What're you doing in Ponyville?" ZipZee explained, adding that she wanted to get back to Breezie Blossom quickly to help with the biggest flower contest. "The what?" Minty asked ZipZee. "Oh, it's a contest between the best flower tenders in the Blossom to grow the biggest flower ever! Whoever wins gets all sorts of cool gardening tools!" ZipZee explained. "Wow. Hey Wystie, you should join!" Minty exclaimed. "Sorry, Mint, but I'm not a Breezie!" Wysteria said laughing. "Well..." Minty thought hard about Breezies. Breezies can make a little bit of magic, maybe enough to turn Wystie into a Breezie! "Minty, do you want to turn me into a Breezie? Well, I can't. I'm scared that I might not turn back if I do!" Wystie explained to a downhearted Minty. "Well, we have to get back to the Blossom, or I'll miss that contest!" ZipZee huffed. The 2 ponies and Breezie set out, each pony with saddlebags in tow. There was a nice road leading out of Ponyville, so the girls used it. "Woah, what a view!" Minty said as they reached the Rainbow Waterfall.

"Hi guys! *whistle* It's me again! *whistle* You want to go to the island? *whistle*" Thistle Whistle said quickly, whistling as usual. "Hey Thistle!

I would be glad to join your adventure, and I AM a unicorn! I can help!" Brights said, and although exited, kept a calm state throughout. "Cool! A real life unicorn!" ZipZee said, then bombarded the unicorn with questions. "Yes, I'm actually a unicorn, no, I don't poop rainbows, but that would be cool, yes, I like rainbow berry juice, yes, I can do magic, wait what? What's a pegasus pony?" Brights Brightly said, raising an eyebrow at the end. "It's a pony that can fly! *whistle* Like me!" Thistle Whistle said, pointing to herself and puffing out her chest proudly. "Enchanting!" Brights said, her eyes gleaming. "So I'm assuming that you want to come with us? I don't think 5 ponies need to go to the Blossom, it's not that dangerous!" Wysteria said, holding up a hoof. "But it will be more fun with more ponies!" Minty argued. "I guess..." Wystie said defeatedly, as the team set out to the dark forest ahead of them. Author's Note Just a note, Brights Brightly has an accent like Rarity's, but it would be hard to read if I typed it.
Chapter 6: Forest Expedition!Chapter 6: Forest Expedition The 5 adventurers trotted/flew into the dark forest, the lightberries, berries that glow in many colors, being the only light to see by. "Wow! *whistle* It's so cool!" Thistle Whistle said, staring in awe at the soft glow of the berry trees. Brights Brightly was tip toe-ing, not wanting to get her hooves dirty. "Oh, look at all of the flowers!" Wysteria awed. The five adventurers trotted deeper into the forest, and it got darker. Only the glow of ZipZee let them see. "I know! We should sing!" Minty yelled, smiling. A song always cheered everypony up when they were down. "Umm..." Wysteria stuttered. She had always been afraid of the dark, ever since she was a little filly. "OK..." Minty said sadly. They trotted into a small cave to stay for the night. "Oh, how dreadful!" Brights exclaimed, being used to sleeping in a cushy, posh bed in a big castle. A pair of yellow eyes flashed in a thicket of trees, making the adventurers scream like little fillies. "What is that?" Wystie asked, pointed her hoof shakily at the figure emerging from the trees. It was a small, pink unicorn. Her mane had sticks and mud in it, and she was scratched up pretty badly. She turned towards the five adventurers, and as she looked at Brights, her eyes became scared. "ErmUhGottaGoBye!" she said quickly before running off. "Well, that was akward!" Minty smiled. "I bet we'll see her in Unicornia!" The five adventurers trotted cautiosly out of the cave after the night had ended. However, the forest was still as dark as ever. "Well, let's get a move on! We will be late for ZipZee's thingy if we don't!" Minty said pushily. She was already far ahead of the others. The end of the forest neareed. "Here we are!" Brights Brightly said, as a light came toward them, or maybe the other way around. Author's Note This is another super short one! Heh heh...
Chapter 2: Cake-Making CrisisChapter 2: Cake-Making Crisis The 4 mares trotted over to a table with Sweetberry's bowl on it. They were exited to cook, but first, they needed a plan. "What should we do?" Sweetberry asked everypony as the ponies each thought of an idea. "Well, of course darlings, it should be about rainbows!" Rainbow Dash said as she grabbed a rainbow-shaped piece of candy from a bowl on a nearby table. "Maybe it should be mint-flavored!" Minty said as Triple Treat rolled her eyes at Minty's obvious choice. "It should be made out of berries!" Sweetberry suggested. "It should be a triple deluxe three layer cake!" Triple Treat blurted out suddenly. "Huh?" The other three ponies said as they exchanged puzzled glances. "We should have three layers: one can be rainbow-y, one can be mint-flavored, and one can be berry-themed." Triple Treat explained to the puzzled ponies. "Darling idea, darlings!" Rainbow Dash said, patting Triple Treat on the back. And so the four ponies got to work, each working on her respective cake layer, Triple Treat helping everypony in general. The cake turned out great, just as she had expected. The ponies just had one question: does it represent the cafe? The answer: yes. Each pony who had worked on the cake was represented in the cake. And the ponies were ready to party. Author's Note Sorry everypony, this chapter is kinda short!
Chapter 3: Party PooperEpisode 3: Party Pooper "Let's Part-Tay!" Minty cried out, throwing some confetti into the air. All of the ponies trotted over to the cake, showing various degrees of hunger. But one pony had a scowl on her face. The flower-loving periwinkle pony was not pleased. "Don't you just love it?" A lavender pony said to her, staring in awe at the small pink flower garnish on the side. Wysteria, another flower lover, thought the garnish was a nice touch. But the periwinkle pony was not so pleased. She gave Wystie a grumpy look. "What's wrong? I thought you liked flowers?" Wystiria asked Daisy Jo, a confused look on her face. "There should be more. Doesn't Sweetberry have any respect for other ponies' interests?" Daisy said grumpily. She trotted up to Sweetberry as she was about to give a speech. "This isn't a cake! It is an abomination!" Daisy Jo yelled at Sweetberry. "Don't you have any respect for flowers?" "I... Uh... I put a flower garnish on it..." Sweetberry stuttered. Sweet was surprised at Daisy's angry reaction. "I refuse to eat this horrible cake!" Daisy Jo said as she stormed off. "Well, that was awkward!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed before taking a huge bite and yelling, " Dig in!" But Sweetberry still felt sad about what Daisy Jo had said to her. She wanted to face up to the mean mare. She worried that some ponies, Wysteria in preticular, since she was also a friend to the flowers, would hate it as well. "Uhh..." Wysteria approached the unhappy equine. "I apologize for my friend's actions. She was very inconsiderate." she explained. "I still don't feel like I am being considerate to her." Sweetberry said sadly, as Minty trotted up to them. "Hi guys, why so glum?" Minty greeted them cheerfully. "I thought you'd be celebrating like everypony else!" "Uhh... Daisy Jo..." Wystie started. "Ohhhhhhh!!!!!!!!" Minty exclaimed. She had heard the whole thing, but so had everypony else. "We've got to give her a taste of her own medicine!" "But Minty, that might just make her do it more!" Wysteria exclaimed. "True, true" Minty mused. "What are you dumb mares standing around for?" Daisy Jo's voice called out. "Err..." Wystie stuttered shyly. "Daisy, I heard that you don't appreciate our cake's design?" Sweetberry inquired of Daisy, raising one eyebrow. "Yeah, didn't I tell you already? Now, you can appreciate what we made for you, or keep your muzzle shut, please?" Sweetberry scolded. "Uhh... Well.. I just though you weren't thinking of me, not making it all things that I like..." Daisy apologized. "But I've got my eye on you!" Daisy said before running away. "You showed her!" Minty said, punching the air. "Well, she was being a bit of a party pooper!" Sweetberry said smiling. The ponies dug into the cake as they partied throughout the night.
Chapter 7: Princesses of Unicornia"Woah..." Minty said, her jaw dropping as she and the others took in the kingdom. A large castle stood in the middle of the kingdom, and unicorns milled around, chatting and running their daily activities. "Can we see the princesses?" Wysteria asked. "You've already seen one." Brights replied, smiling mischievously. "Whaaaaaa??" the others gasped. "You're a princess?" Minty asked. Thistle Whistle whistled appreciatively. "Yep!" Brights said. The others bowed, well as bow-y as a four legged creature could on all fours. "There are 4 of us, well, there used to be anyway." Brights continued. "Whaddya mean?" Minty asked. "It's a long and sad story, but I'll tell you the short of it." Brights said sadly. :::::::::::::::::::::::: Once, long ago, in the kingdom of Unicornia, there were four unicorn princesses. Unlike the Alicorns in legends, they only had a horn. The princesses each used their unicorn powers to create the first rainbow of the season. Each of them represented a color of the rainbow, and they had been chosen by the elder of Unicornia, who for a long time had taken all of the responsibilities of creating the rainbow. But she had grown old and could no longer carry on her duties. So each princess represented a color of the rainbow, the one that they took responsibility for. Princess Rose represented pink, Princess Brights Brightly was yellow, Princess Cheerilee embodied purple, and Princess Whistle Wishes brought blue. However, Princess Rose was much older than the other princesses, as they were but little fillies. As she grew older, she became unable to preform her duties as princess, and she passed away, much to the dismay of the Kingdom. However, a new princess was born, and the other princesses believed she would be the new bearer of the rainbow. Now the princesses continues their duties, and Cheerilee took responsibility for pink as well. Soon, the pink princess will come of age, and take responsibility for her color of the rainbow. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::: "That was long." Minty said. "And saaaaaad!!!!" Minty bawled. "Well, who's the new princess?" Wysteria asked. Brights just sighed. "What's wrong?" Minty asked, considerable concern showing in her face. "Hey, sis! Lookie here!" a pink unicorn called, trotting over to the ponies. Her rainbow-colored mane had sticks in it, and her hooves were muddy. Her face glistened with sweat, and she was panting. She was levitating a small creature with her magenta-colored magic. "Well, Princess Rarity, what have you got now?" Brights sighed
