Butterscotch
Chapter 1: The Mission.
Load Full StoryNext ChapterPinkie looked at the empty Butterscotch boxes that usually arrives on Mondays. She was expecting to get the Butterscotch, but instead didn't get any.
"Hey! Where's the Butterscotch???" Pinkie asked the delivery pony.
The delivery pony replied,"Umm, the Butterscotch sources aren't producing any Butterscotch. They said it had something to do with the machines not work-"
"WHAT???!!!" Pinkie interrupted. All week she had been craving it. This was not good. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE MACHINE IS BROKEN??!!" Pinkie yelled.
The delivery pony crouched down and said, "We are doing the best we can, Miss Pie..."
Pinkie frowned and replied, mostly to herself, "I need to see what's going on."
She signed the clipboard and zoomed out of the bakery, making it closed for the day. She had told Mrs Cake and Mr Cake she had to take a day off. She traveled down the road to the only place she knew of that produced SugarCube Corner's Butterscotch, a plain near Canterlot called Arch Town. Yeah, pretty bland name. (Sorry, forth wall breaking).
Pinkie set out on the road, it went through the Ever-Free Forest. She quivered as she stepped into the forest. Then she remembered Giggle-At-The-Ghosties and felt a little braver and safer. She kept traveling until she saw Zecora's Hut in the distance. She knew she was probably meditating and decided not to bother her. She hummed Smile as she traveled through the forest. She decided to smile and then thought. She thought about Butterscotch and how good it tasted. She remembered the peanut-buttery Carmel deliciousness. Then she though about what the machine might look like. "Maybe its just broken in half, or maybe its broken into a million pieces. I really want to see what happened. What caused it? Maybe I can ask them. What would happen if we could never fix it? Would there be no more Butterscotch? That would be terrible.
Pinkie finally arrived at her destination. Arch Town. (Pretty bland name, I know. Oops, breaking the forth wall.)
She looked at Arch Town, the entire place was in panic.
There were ponies saying, "THIS HAS GONE HORRIBLY WRONG!"
And, "THE BUTTERSCOTCH WILL BE RUINED!"
Pinkie took a look and saw what happened. The machine that produced the Butterscotch was broken. It's metal was scattered all over the floor and the machine its self had chocolate all over it. The ingredients were all across the floor and some on the walls. It was terrible. Pinkie decided she would ask what happened. She walked up to a sobbing pony with a card that said 'manager'. The sobbing pony looked up and put on a fake smile.
"Hello, I'm Carmel Bar. What brings you to Arch Town?"
Pinkie replied, "I came to see what happened to the machine. I traveled allll the way from PonyVille. My name's Pinkie Pie, but you can call me Pinkie!"
Carmel Bar Looked down and said, "Sorry for the hold up. The machine broke."
Pinkie nodded.
"I heard." Pinkie said.
"Can you tell me what happened?" Pinkie asked. Carmel Bar nodded.
"Well, one of my employees, Chocolate Blast, was working her shift. She accidentally put too much chocolate into the machine carelessly. She was always a lazy worker. She walked out of the room for her break and the machine exploded. The press point was red when she put the chocolate in. She didn't check it like she was supposed to. She wasn't supposed to put anything in the machine if it was red. It had to cool down. Anyway, when she got back, she immediately told me. I was furious when I saw her carelessness. I cooled over though. Since I am a nice and forgiving mare, as my workers say, I forgave her. I know accidents happen. But now what do we do? I'm ruined!" Carmel Bar explained.
Pinkie sat for a moment, then she had an idea. She knew what to do, right there and then. She smiled as she called all the ponies working in the factory. Then, she told them her idea.
It seemed sensible enough (for pinkie), and the ponies of Arch Town. They followed her plan. This was the plan: 1: The pegasus ponies would help by picking up the metal that fell all around the ceiling and top floor and they would help Pinkie clean up the chocolate. 2: The earth ponies would carry the spewed around metal to the machine's ruins and give them to the unicorns.. 3: The unicorns would use their spells to magically try to repair the machine by combing the metals together according to a blueprint. All three tribes would help repair the machine. Pinkie helped by cleaning up the spilled chocolate and carmel. The plan had a few stalls, like some ponies slipping and some metal being misplaced, but after hours of work, it was finished. The machine was back to normal. Carmel thanked Pinkie.
"How can we repay you?" Carmel Bar asked. Pinkie smiled and whispered what she wanted. Pinkie Pie got the first taste of the Butterscotch.
"And it was deeelicous!!!" (Oh no, Pinkie. Forth wall breaking, again?).
