Too Far?

Day 3: The Limit

Previous Chapter

The next morning Crackers flew into the castle as he waited for his prank to take shape. Babe, Saphy, Poppy, Cream Cake and Mrs.Oinkers we're in the throne room. Talking about their owners as usual as Crackers flew in. Crackers made sure to leave the door wide open as he landed beside Cream Cake. Who tensed up a little, while Poppy glared. 'What's he up to?' Poppy thought. The pet's continued to talk as Poppy looked at two small thrones in between Luna and Celestia's. One was colored green while on was colored red. Poppy smiled she remembered Timidthy and Blood Bones. Would pretend to rule over the kingdom. Poppy walked over to the green throne and jumped in it. Crackers felt a smirk grow onto his face as the sound of something creaking filled the air. The other pet's stopped their conversation. As they tried to figure out where the sound was coming from. Poppy leaned her ear against the throne but she realized too late. As the seat of the throne sprang up and Poppy hit the wall with a wet smack. The the pet's gasped and looked up their eye's wide as they saw Poppy was glued to the ceiling. With what looked like was a combination of taffy, glue, peanut butter, and chocolate. Cream Cake was the one who was shocked the most for some reason he felt anger. Crackers was snickering trying to contain his laughter for phase two. Poppy blushed madly,

"Crackers when I get down here your dead!" Poppy said as she struggled against the sticky concoction. Crackers snorted as he saw Poppy slowly peel off the wall. Poppy fell and landed on the seat of the red throne and she flew out the door and crashed in the castle kitchen. Cream Cake was the first to react as he ran towards the kitchen. Crackers and the other's followed in pursuit. As Cream Cake ran into the kitchen he saw that a net filled with honey was ripped. As he saw Poppy had flown through it into a bucket of feathers. Cream Cake gasped and pulled Poppy out. She was coated in multiple coloured feathers as Poppy wobbly tried to get up. Just then Babe, Saphy, Mrs.Oinkers, and Crackers ran in. They all gasped, minus Crackers who busted out in hysterics.

"Gotcha! How does it feel to be pranked?" Crackers said once he was able to catch his breath. Poppy teared up as she felt her face heat up, Babe, Saphy and Mrs.Oinkers stayed quiet in shock. While Cream Cake felt his body go red as if shook vigorously, he turned to Crackers. Crackers pupils dilated as he began taking steps back. Babe, Saphy, and Mrs.Oinkers jumped into one of the cabinets and shut the door. While Poppy jumped into the bucket,

"HOW DARE YOU HURT POPPY!" Cream Cake screamed,

"I CAN DEAL WITH A LOT OF THING'S BUT NOPONY HURTS POPPY! SHE'S THE SWEETEST MOST ADORABLE PET ON THE PLANET AND I WON'T LET YOU GET AWAY WITH HURTING HER! DO YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT I THINK OF PRANKS!? I THINK THERE STUPID, IDIOTIC, A WASTE OF TIME AND ENERGY, AND ANYONE WHO PULLS PRANKS ARE MORONS!! BUT I DELT WITH IT BECAUSE I WAS BEING NICE! BUT NOW FUCK THAT! YOU'VE TORMENTED ME FOR THREE DAY'S! DO YOU THINK CAUSING ME TO SHED EARLY IS A PRANK!? DO YOU THINK GIVING ME A RASH IS A FUNNY!? CAUSE BELIEVE ME THAT RASH WAS EVERYWHERE! DO YOU THINK SOAKING ME IN FAKE BLOOD IS FUNNY AND GIVING ME SLIGHT HEMOPHOBIA IS A JOKE!? CAUSE I DON'T THINK IT IS! YOU NEED TO LEARN WHO LIKES PRANKS AND WHO DOSENT CAUSE I CERTAINLY DON'T LIKE THEM ESSENTIALLY AFTER THIS THREE DAY'S!!!" Cream Cake screamed, by the time he was done his voice was hoarse and Crackers was almost as pale as a piece of paper. The other pet's left their hiding spots along with Poppy who had a smile on her face. Cream Cake snapped out of his rage just as he looked at Poppy,

"You did it! And now a certain bird has to cash in his deal of our bet!" Poppy said cheerfully. Crackers blushed a deep red which contrasted against his pale feathers.

"N-No." Crackers whispered, Poppy smiled.

"Yes. A deal's a deal and you're a bird of your word." Poppy said smugly, Crackers blushed redder. And he looked over to Mrs.Oinkers who was trying to figure out what was so bad about the deal Crackers's had made with Poppy. Cream Cake, Babe, and Saphy we're trying to figure out as well but their thoughts we're stopped like a train tripping over a penny as Crackers french kissed Mrs.Oinkers. Everypony gasped, minus Mrs.Oinkers, Poppy, and Crackers. Mrs.Oinker had turned an unnatural shade of red while Poppy was smirking evilly. Crackers wasn't going to lie to himself he had dreamed of this moment but he didn't dream it with his friends staring at him in shock and confusion. And he certainly hadn't dreamed it after Cream Cake had just smack talked him. Babe, Saphy and Cream Cake began to look away, growing uncomfortable with the scene. While Poppy had her eye's glued on Crackers relishing in his humiliation, finally the three minutes we're up and Crackers pulled back. Covering his mouth to prevent a string of saliva from following. He then flew off leaving everypony wondering,

"What the heck just happened!?" Mrs.Oinkers screamed. The pet's we're back in the throne room as Poppy explained Crackers's half of the bet if he we're to tick Cream Cake off.

"Wow so he did that because of a bet." Mrs.Oinkers said sounding slightly detected.

"Actually Crackers has told me he's wanted to kiss you." Babe said,

"He was setting up a plan, you know how he is about his schedules." Babe finished. Suddenly the door opened and everypony gasped, the pet's (minis Mrs.Oinkers) who blushed a deep red. Crackers, as him and Poppy had agreed on, had dyed his feathers a light pink. As he was wishing he had chosen a darker shade of pink as he felt blush burn at his cheeks. Crackers muttered curses under his breath as he took in the laughter.

"I-I never thought I'd be more happier to see Crackers in my entire life!" Babe said as he caught his breath.

"Yeah tickle me pink! Thisss is pricelessss!" Saphy spoke, Crackers blushed redder as he flew off. No sooner Babe, Saphy, and Mrs.Oinkers then saw what time it was and left.

"So......you think I'm adorable?" Poppy said and Cream Cake blushed,

"Yep." Cream Cake said calmly.

"You know what you deserve from standing up to Crackers and complementing me?" Poppy said sweetly.

"What?" Cream Cake said just as Poppy kissed him and hugged him tightly, Cream Cake didn't try to pull back as he enjoyed the moment. Meanwhile Mrs.Oinkers popped up from a loose floor board in Bumper's room. The room was dark as she heard sniffing and crying. She sniffed the air and she smelled hair products, and a salt sent. 'Crackers' Mrs.Oinkers thought as she put her favorite yellow wig on and let I glow. She saw Crackers was in Bumper's bed covers, Mrs.Oinkers quietly got on the bed and went under the covers. She didn't have to walk long until she bumped into a large pink form. The form turned around and Mrs.Oinkers saw Crackers eye's we're blood-shot from crying. He jumped and tried to hide himself,

"No! Don't look at me!" Crackers screamed. Mrs.Oinkers was shocked,

"Cra-Crackers! It's okay!" Mrs.Oinkers said.

"No it's not! I'm never gonna live this down! I got screamed at by Cream Cake and had to kiss you and you probably hate me! And I have to dye my feathers pink! I just want to crawl into a hole and-" Crackers managed to get out before Mrs.Oinkers kissed his on the top of his beak.

"It's okay." Mrs.Oinkers repeated calmly and Crackers felt tears welled up in his eye's again as he hugged Mrs.Oinkers tightly.
