"So can you just not lie and tell the truth constantly ow what?" Crackers said and Cream Cake's face flushed deep red. Poppy hit Crackers,

"You don't have to answer that." Poppy said. But Cream Cake couldn't take it,

"Yes! I can't lie and I'm always forced to tell the truth no matter what and I hate it!" Cream Cake screamed.

"Don't worry I'm sure we can find a way to get your mouth under control." Mrs.Oinkers said. Crackers grinned evilly and said,

"Oh so you can't lie and you have to tell the truth huh? About anything......so what's the most embarrassing moment that's ever happened to you?" Crackers said. And Cream Cake's body turned red as he bit his lip hard, Saphy hit Crackers and he hit the floor. Poppy grabbed a pillow and put it over Cream Cake's mouth. Cream Cake then screamed it but it was too muffled to understand.

"Okay what's with everyone hitting me!?" Crackers said, Poppy hugged Cream Cake as he was in tears.

"Crackers you can't just be a jerk to Cream Cake. He's new and he can't control this problem of his." Mrs.Oinkers said sternly. Babe nodded,

"Despite the fact I'm still a little annoyed on how my owner called him "cute". We have to help him so he doesnt go blabbing to the wrong pony." Babe said. Crackers got up, 'I still don't see why we have to help the cream puff. He's the pet of Meadow and she's probably making him do this. I don't trust earlier one of them.' Crakers thought, Cream Cake had managed to compose himself. And now was wiping the tears from his eye's.

"Okay now we're going to asssk you something and we'll sssee how long you can go before you blab." Saphy said, Cream Cake nodded. Poppy opened her mouth but Crackers jumped in.

"How many times have you wet yourself?" Everyone looked at Crackers with fury as they saw Cream Cake turn red and cover his mouth with his paws. Cream Cake felt his brain conflicting with his dignity and his honesty. Cream Cake grabbed the pillow again and stuffed his fuzzy mouth into it and screamed.

"Fast thinking Cream Cake! And you lasted one-minute!" Poppy said trying to cheer Cream Cake up.

"It felt like one thousand year's." Cream Cake said, as he then flopped backwards onto the bed emotionally exhausted. Mrs.Oinkers looked then pulled out a light blanket and put in on Cream Cake as he went to sleep. Saphy pulled the curtains back and the room went dark as they decided to sit on the floor. Mrs.Oinkers put hee favorite yellow wig on and pulled one of the tabs and it gave a soft glow.

"What we're you thinking!?" Poppy whispered to Crackers,

"I think the more appropriate term is what are you doing!?" Babe whispered to Crackers as well. Crackers rolled his eye's,

"Please don't tell me you buying his sap story not only was he found in an alley but he's the pet of Meadow. Ya know the one that neatly killed our owners! We can't trust him! He could be making "the I can't lie and am forced by a mysterious power to tell the truth" thing! I don't trust him and I only trust Meadow as far as I can throw her and that's not very far! You guy's shouldn't trust him until he proves himself and the same goes for Meadow!" Crackers whispered. By the time he was done the other's we're shocked. Finally Babe spoke,

"Well I don't like that attitude of yours. Sure Meadow may not be the most holy of fillies. But she's still nice and you can't just judge someone when you have no information on them. And you especially can't judge them because of their owner! You know Meadow and Cream Cake aren't the problem it's you and your trust issues!" And the entire room went silent Crackers had his eye's wide in shock as his face turned cherry red. Cream Cake stared in between the two, having been woken up from the argument. Crackers flew and glared into Cream Cake's face,

"You! I don't care how "nice" and "sweet" you guy's act out to be! You and your owner are nothing but trash!" Crackers screamed. And Cream Cake shrank back as tears filled his eye's. Crackers then flew off aggravated,

"I hate that stupid bird!" Poppy said. Saphy hissed as her eye's glowed red,

"Friendssss I think itsss better you guy's comfort Cream Cake I might bite him." Saphy said. Babe growled,

"I need to cool off can you and Mrs.Oinkers do it?" Babe said. Poppy and Mrs.Oinkers nodded and they jumped on the bed.

"It's okay Creamy. Crackers is just being stick-in-the-mud." Poppy said,

"Yeah he's just being a major jerk!" Mrs.Oinkers said. Cream Cake hugged the two girl's,

"I just don't understand why he thinks that stuff!" Cream Cake said ad tears continued to roll down his face. Meanwhile Crackers was flying back home with tears in his eye's. As memories he had once kept burried came to the surface.

The room was cold and unforgiving as a small green bird heard hoof steps come closer. The small bird had chains on his neck and one's that we're connection his bird feet together. And finally a big chain was around its body keeping its wing's squeezed shut against its body. The small bird looked fearfully up at a black stallion. The stallion had green hair and his cutiemark was a trail of bloody bird tracks. The stallion pulled out a remote and pressed it. The small bird cried as a painful electric shock went through it. The stallion laughed as it threw the remote to the side and undid the chains on the small bird's neck and feet. The stallion grabbed the bird and started talking.

"This is your last chance you pathetic waste of space. If nopony wins you then well clip those wing's of yours and put you down." The small bird gulped as the stallion opened the door and a bright light shone along. As the small bird's eyes adjusted to the light it was reveled that the two we're at a county fair. The stallion shut the door and placed the small bird on the small podium with a red spotlight on his as usual. And the two waited, all the children had to do was guess between three items. Worms, berries, and crackers to coax him into their hooves winning the small bird. But the children always picked worms or berries and even when they rarely did pick crackers. They werent what the small bird was looking for in an owner. And this day was no different, the kid's did the same thing's the usually did. And the stallion would throw smirks at the bird that sent a shiver of fear down him. And the day went on until the sunset and the other standis started to close down. The small bird felt tears build up in his eye's and the stallion opened the door and walked towards the bird.

"Hey mister! Wait up!" a very pitchy male voice cried. The stallion turned around to see a small light green unicorn colt with a messy black mane and tail.

"Sorry kid but I was just about to close up." the stallion said.

"Hey don't call me "kid" my name's Bumper and I want that bird and I'm not leaving until I get it!" Bumper said and the stallion rolled his eye's.

"Fine just pick a food and hope he comes." the stallion said already growing tired of the colt. The small bird looked nervous he liked the kid but he had to pick his favorite food in order for it to work. Bumper looked between the food's and he reached towards the berries. And the small bird thought he was going to have a heart attack. Until Bumper stopped and chose the crackers. The stallion looked shocked and the small bird smiled. It squawked and jumped off the podium and walked up to Bumper. The stallion looked annoyed but undid the chains restricting the small bird's wing's. The small bird flew on top on Bumper's head.

"Crackers! Crackers!" The small bird said before Bumper gave it the one's on his hooves. As Bumper left the standi he laughed,

"You really like crackers huh? Would you like that as a name?" Bumper said. The small bird squawked, Bumper laughed again.

"I'll take that as a yes!" Bumper said and Crackers smiled at the new life that waited for him.

As the memory faded Crackers had just flown into Bumper's room. Babe had insulted Crackers for having trust issues but in hindsight could you blame him?
