//-------------------------------------------------------// Rainbow Sprinkles : Why Rainbow Sprinkles? -by faustinadiva- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Prologue //-------------------------------------------------------// Prologue   Hello! my name is Rainbow Sprinkles, When i was a little filly, i used to wonder why my name is Rainbow Sprinkles. Is like, i'm not even rainbow at all! I asked my mom A LOT about my name. But my mom just say "You will know that soon honey, since the first time i saw you, i knew you were a gifted pegasus." I used to wonder about that, a lot. I don't have many friends, considering i'm not good at making friends... I used to play in my treehouse with my friend, Pencil Sketch. She already get a cutie mark since she was a little. Her cutie mark was a note. Strange maybe. But she plays violin so good! Sometimes i feel jealous of her. I thought i will NEVER get a cutie mark, until one day... //-------------------------------------------------------// Cupcake contest! //-------------------------------------------------------// Cupcake contest!   Ring! The bell at the Sugarcube Corner's door rings as a grey pony walked in. She looks quite... hungry. As she fastened her pace to reach the store counter. "Oh hi Derpy! how can i help you?" "Uhh... i'd like to buy a sack of vanilla muffins." "Oh sure thing derpy, here you go, it cost actually 15 bits, but i give you special price today! Just 7 bits!"   "Woah, thanks pinkie! (Put 7 bits to the counter). And, can i order something that i'll take later?" "Oooh... sure thing! What do you want to order? A tower made out muffin?! A muffin shaped muffin?! A-" Derpy cut off Pinkie. "No, i want to order A CUPCAKE." "WHAT?! Really?! Do you like cupcakes?! I don't know you like cupcakes. No one EVER tells me that you like cup-" Derpy cut off Pinkie, again. "It's NOT for me. Listen carefully, my cousin will came from Manehattan this saturday. I want to buy THE MOST PEFECT CUPCAKE EVER EXSISTED. She is a perfectionist. She always wants the finest, the most perfect things. No hard feelings but, i think she wants more yummier cupcake than the ones you've made."   "Okaaaay... how about making a contest? Every pony in Ponyville can enter it. A pony should submit at least three cupcakes. That way, the two of us can taste it and the other one is for your cousin." "Made a contest? are you sure? isn't it too big... for just a cupcake?" "For ordinary cupcake? Yes but since you just want to buy THE MOST PERFECT CUPCAKE EVER EXISTED, no it's not a big thing. And my costumer satisfaction is my number 1 goal! "Wow, thanks Pinkie." "You're welcome. The contest announcement will be tomorrow." The next day...   "Oookie dokie! The poster is almost done. But, what prize should they get? It should be awesome and colorful. How about i make the replica of my super fun filled-colorful-awesome party cannon! No one CAN resist THAT." Pinkie dashed to her room, looking around. "Aha! here it is, my party canon! first, i should find a plain old boring cannon! Ah, i found it! Now lets decorate!" Within minutes, she finshed making her party cannon replica that looks just like the original one. "Finished! Now to finish the last detail of the poster!" She said while adding the final sentence to her poster.   "Juust right." She just finished placing the poster on the Sugarcube Corner's front wall. And now she's with her pink pogo stick and megaphone, ready to inform the contest.   "Attention people of Ponyville! I, Pinkie Pie is here to inform you about a contest!" Said Pinkie as she jumped with her pogo stick across the Ponyville. "This is no ordinary contest! You have to make THE MOST PERFECT CUPCAKE EVER EXISTED!!!" She has to catch a breath because even a hyperactive pony like her could get tired. "Each contestant have to submit at least 3 cupcakes at the Sugarcube Corner. The contest start today! At 9 AM and closed at 3 PM each day. The contest will be finished at Friday. Yes everypony! There sure will be a good prize! The winner gets THE REPLICA OF MY AWESOME PARTY CANNON. 5 days is NOT much! soo, see you a couple of hours at the Sugarcube Corner!" Pinkie said with enthusiasm. ~Half hour before the contest~ Knock knock! Pinkie knocked the gray pony's house unpatiently. "Derpyyyy.... C'mon and get out! The contest is almost begin!" Then Derpy comes out of her house with mouth full of yummy muffins. "Whut ish ight? *munch munch* ish still lighk 8 ink the mourning *gulp*" Derpy complain with her mouth full. "Aah, stop complaining and come with me to the Sugarcube Corner! Don't you remember? you're one of the cupcake judges. We don't have much time!" Then Derpy and pinky dashed to the Sugarcube Corner... //-------------------------------------------------------// What's up with the crowd? //-------------------------------------------------------// What's up with the crowd?   It was a bright Tuesday morning and its like 10 AM. I and Pencil Sketch was planning to have a picnic in the park just near the Sugarcube Corner.   "Are you ready with the picnic basket Sprinkles?" Said Sketch. "Wait, i think i forgot to bring the juice carton and lemonade bottle." I said while rushing to the fridge and taking a carton of grape juice and super sour lemonade. "Sketch, you sure you can handle the sourness of the super sour lemonade? I drinked it once, and then i got stomachache." "Hmm, okay. I'll bring my soothing milk with mint extract in case i got stomachache."   We walked to the park. Sketch and i made a deal. If Sketch can drink the whole lemonade bottle, i will give her all the food i bring, but if she can't, she will give me all the food she bring. And we talked about other things, until we realized there's a long queue at the Sugarcube Corner.   "What's up with the crowd?" I asked Sketch. She simply shake her head. "I don't know, let's ask one of them. How about that guy over there holding some cupcakes?" "Which guy, Sketch? All of them hold some cupcakes." "You're right... Let's ask that yellow mare with the blue mane over there." So we walked and ask her. "Excuse me miss, what are you queuing for?" The yellow earth pony look at us and say "Oh you don't know? Pinkie Pie is making a contest. You have to make THE MOST PERFECT CUPCAKE EVER EXISTED. The prize is the replica of Pinkie Pie's party cannon that looks like the original one! The contest will be closed at, umm... I forgot. Maybe Thursday or Friday." "Thank you miss!" said the two of us.   "Now let's get to the park!" Said Sketch. "Yeah! to the park!" Because the people that queuing for the contest are blocking the road, we decided to use the path behind the Sugarcube Corner. The path was very narrow and quiet. I can barely hear Sketch's breathing!   "No Sketch! Don't eat your pie!" I Said when Sketch wants to eat her apple pie. "What? Why?" "Because you haven't drink the super sour lemonade! Remember? The deal!" "Oh yeah... Okay Sprinkles, bring it on!   So i open my picnic basket and grab the plastic lemonade bottle. "Here you go. Drink it until the last drop!" So Sketch drank the first sip quickly. After she swallow it suddenly she stopped. "What's the matter, Sketchy? Feel the sour?" I said, teasing her. "N-no... I'm okay." She managed to drink half of the bottle after fifteen minutes later. Her stomach growled. "Ouch! My stomach hurts. I think i got a stomachache. Fine, i surrender. You win." She said while quickly sipping her mint flavored cold milk. " Haha, knew i will win! Show me all the food you got!" With a frown, she take out all the food she got from my picnic basket. Wow, she bring a lot. There's a slice of apple pie, turkey sandwich that looks soo good, potato chips, nachos chips complete with cheese sauce and chilli, chocolate flavored biscuits,  mango flavored jelly in a cup, a chocolate bar with caramel inside and gummy bears. "Wow, you bring a lot Sketchy, now i knew why my picnic basket is so heavy." "Yeah, whatever, take it all." Said Sketch with a careless face. "You know what Sketch? This is too much for my tummy. I'll just take the sandwich, nachos and the chocolate bar." "Really? Thanks!" So we both ate our lunch together. "It's 2 PM now! Let's go home!" "You're right! My mom will get mad if i return home late!"
