Sweetie Drops vs The P.F.F

(Note that the actual story is set in a time when Bon Bon's Organisation was still in action)

There had been reports of strange mis-happenings such as: unusual snow, unexpected snow fire and multiple other acts involving the winter weather. It was exactly around sunset time in Ponyville, and I secret agent, Sweetie Drops, had situated myself behind a dustbin in a hidden alleyway. It wasn't the best of places to keep undercover, mainly because of the...smell: but I couldn't be picky especially when time was precious. The cold, summer breeze whipped the blue and pink strands of my mane back and fourth but, it did not waver my concentration on the house I was targeting.

"Aren't you being a bit melodramatic, I mean I distinctively remember you told me that this was at night." stated the voice of Lyra Heartstrings, a mint unicorn who was lying on her favourite couch whilst her best friend, Bon Bon, sat by her, narrating the story. Bon Bon just sighed before continuing her dramatic narration once again.

Night had swiftly fallen over our humble town: the stars had illuminated the pitch black sky and the homes of Ponyville glowed in the silent darkness. The door to the house I was looking at, slowly opened, only letting the slightest bit of light out, a silhouette of a young foal became visible to my cerulean eyes: it was a colt. Although, he had worn a navy blue cloak to conceal his identity, his cream hooves stood out in the cold, dull background. Readjusting my position, I could see that the young lad had forest green saddle bags on him, which must have contained some valuable contents: contents that I would need.

Lyra's laugh echoed the fine living room the pair were sitting in. She doubled over in fits of giggles which only seemed to irritate Bon Bon even more.

"Okay, what is it now?" Bon Bon questioned, a little flustered by her friends mocking.

"You sound so much like Batmare"

"Batmare? How do I sound like Batmare?"

"You've got that dark chilly tone plus that serious expression on your face" Lyra pointed her hoof at Bon Bon's face, who only swiped her hoof away with a grunt.

"Fine, but, if you want me to continue my story you'll have to maintain your humour, okay"

"Aww, fine" Lyra sulked, keeping her giggles to herself. Bon Bon coughed, a dramatic cough, before once again continuing without interruptions.

The colt began to make his move into the night obviously making sure to limit the sound he made when, he began to advance around the streets. Unfortunately for him, I was onto his lead: tracking him down like a timber wolf. With caution, I progressed after him, front rolling over to side alleyways, ducking behind objects when he turned to stare back and i quickly snuck myself in the shadows.

After a while, he came to stop in an alleyway, just near the clock tower. From where I was the clock seemed to read five to 11: oh this boy was out way passed his bed time. He was going to get a hell of a talking to when he got home. Sadly, I was too distracted in my own thoughts to realise some pony was watching me from above my hidden position. They seemed to alert the attention of the one who I was following. The colt, ahead of me, looked back at me briefly before giving chase. I cursed under my breath before, I ran after the young fellow.

The boy was definitely quick on his hooves, moving in and out of places faster than I could count but, he wasn't alone on this crafty escape of his. From the corner of my eye, two other silhouettes of young foals were approaching from the rear as well as some fliers who were using parkour over the tops of Ponyville's homes. Taking a quick glance behind, I noticed the pair galloping after me, were wearing the same resembling cloaks from the boy ahead. They were unicorns, using their magic to fire magic bolts at me. Luckily, I was trained for this sort of situation, and was able to dodge, jump and duck their shots but, I too could put on a magic show.

Pulling out a couple smoke bombs from the secured pouch attached to my waist, I dropped them easily behind me, creating a very smoky atmosphere which would be hard to navigate in. Waiting for the right moment, I slowed down my steps to a whisper, watching as the glows of lit unicorn horns came closer from behind. When they were close enough, I grabbed the nearest crate and whacked the confused pair at the back of their heads.

Lyra just gulped in response when Bon Bon said those words, with a look of concern mixed with worry. Bon Bon took noticed of this.

"Oh, don't worry they were fine afterwards, trust me" she stated with no sense of remorse "Though I think they might have suffered some concussions after that, oh well, moving on".

The smoky fog soon cleared, displaying the unconscious pair of unicorns who I soon recognised as Snips and Snails. Sadly, the colt who I was following, had now gone. It wouldn't be too long before the other fliers would catch up with me, so I searched the carrier bags of both Snips and Snails to find a map, that would lead me to a secret location, on the outskirts of Ponyville. Taking it in my grasp, I galloped off towards the marked area.

"Wow, that is some story you've got there of stalking some mysterious kid in the dead of night and knocking out a couple of school kids but, excellent story" Lyra commended her friend before starting to get up from the couch.

"Where do you think you're going?" Lyra spun around to face Bon Bon "The story isn't finished."

"But I thought..."

"Oh no no no no, I tracked down that area and what I found was truly shocking" Bon Bon finally finished her statement whilst Lyra excitedly sat back down on the couch again.

The map led me to what looked like a rundown house on the outskirts of Ponyville. A perfect place to perform a perfect scheme. Looking around I found a birch tree to hide behind just in time to conceal my appearance. Not long afterwards, the colt I saw before appeared from another alleyway. He must have taken a longer route through all the chaos I spawned but, he made it out safely.

"How did you know it was him? I mean it could have been some pony else" Lyra questioned, obviously intrigued in her friend's crazy story.

"Well, because I saw the same exact cream hooves" she finally answered her curious friend "Those cloaks may hide there facial features but, not their hooves".

I watched as he crept over to the old, rickety door and gave it a couple of knocks, in a weird pattern. Yeah, very cheesy and cliche, but it allowed him passage inside that home. Slowly, with caution, I snuck myself around the house trying to find the best spot to bust myself in and halt these crazy plans from happening anymore. I found a ladder attached to the house and swiftly climbed up it, trying my best to remain quiet. Once I got to the roof, I inspected the roof to find a hole big enough for me to peer down and see what was happening. Inside, there must have been around 20 colts and fillies seated in the house, all along the walls was a logo marked P.F.F: I of course had no idea what that meant, but I knew I would soon find out.

Suddenly, a pink female unicorn, with a violet plus lavender mane and tail, walks into the main room but I recognised her...

"Who was it?" Lyra asked on the edge of her seat, biting her hooves in desperation. Bon Bon dramatically paused before opening up her mouth to speak.

"Find out after the break" Bon Bon comedically replied just like they do in every cheesy mystery show, which always pisses everybody off a lot. Right now that was what was happening with Lyra.

"Ugh, no, you can't stop there. You have to tell me who the mare was. Ugh you're not being fair" Lyra began sulking again in her childish tone, of course Bon Bon intervened like any caring friend.

"Don't worry I'll tell you after I get a coffee break. Seriously, I'm falling asleep here" she calmly assured her with a good, old pat on the back as she left to go make coffee.

A short coffee break later...

"Right then, where were we?" Bon Bon began to question, obviously awaiting the answer from Lyra, who was at the brink of her patience.

"You were just about to unveil the identity of the mysterious mare you saw in that abandoned home filled with kids, who are up way past their bed time" Lyra enquired in an intriguing tone.

"Oh right, the mare I saw that night was Sparkler, otherwise known as Amethyst Star" Bon Bon concluded.

Lyra gasped in surprise awaiting the next explanation of Bon Bon's story.

Amethyst stood on a make shift stage of cardboard boxes and other sorts of unidentifiable objects, which were used to support the weight of a pony. She too was wearing her own cloak, resembling the others among her but, she seemed to be wearing blue war paint markings on her face. Her presence emitted silence in the room until she began to speak.

"My fellow pranksters, for many seasons we have stayed in the shadows, watching those who are luckier than us hit the spotlight" The crowd jeered Amethyst on her speech "But we are just as talented and if they don't want us to be seen WE WILL MAKE THEM" They were going mad in there with their chants and screaming, that you would think they would've woken some pony up by now. I need to get a better angle of view, just good enough to probably sneak in a few snaps of my camera.

"Now then, luckily for you bunch we have something new in store that will definitely catch the attention we have been craving for so long, but I'm going to need some encouragement to bring it out" Amethyst finished, which kept igniting the fire within the crowd; then from the crowd, they began chanting which turned from a whisper into an uproar: "PRANKS FOR FUN PRANKS FOR FUN PRANKS FOR FUN PRANKS FOR FUN"

"I CAN'T HEAR YOU"

"PRANKS FOR FUN PRANKS FOR FUN PRANKS FOR..."

They continued their loud uproar which distracted me at the time because I didn't hear the sound of cracking wood beneath me which served too late as I fell to the floor below me. Fortunately for me some foals broke my fall which helped me out loads. I made sure to thank them later in the hospital along with the others.

"What is it with you and injuring young fillies and colts. You're really beginning to make me worry about you Bon Bon" Lyra asked.

"I don't know. Most of the time it's accidental I promise" Bon Bon casually answered

For a couple moments no pony said anything till the fog of debris vanished then the real fun was about to begin.

"Who is this imposter?" Amethyst questioned the now silent fillies and colts, whose attention was now occupied by the commotion rather than Amethyst, their leader.

I heroically stood up from my crash position to show off my undercover badge to every pony in the room. I wanted them to know that they were dealing with the wrong kind of pony.

"This is Agent Sweetie Drops, of the Anti-Monster Agency and you lot are in a whole heap of trouble"

"Not the way I see it, Drops. My reckoning is that this town will not be vanquished by you or any pony that wishes to stand in my way"

"Well then, it seems we might have to get a little physical"

"I couldn't agree more"

And just like that we started fighting. Of course during the fight many of the young fillies and colts who were with us in the room began to rush out of the door as fast they could to obviously get out of trouble, though some were unfortuate to make it past the front door.

I was punching left, right and centre in all her weak spots but, she was quick and agile like a fox blasting me with all her magic which caught me off guard in some places. Until, she finally managed to use a cheap trick of using debris to knock me off my hooves and to run to a secret door behind the make shift stage.

"You're not getting away that easily, Amethyst. As you broke the law you suffer my wrath" I muttered to myself to help self motivate my spirit before I dashed straight after her.

Through the door I found Amethyst levitated above me performing some sort of spell from what looked like a torn page obviously from a book. She was manoeuvring the clouds in the sky around herself till they began to spin around her in a frenzy before a beam of light pierced the solid ground in front of me.

"Are you good with animals , Drops. Because I've got one hell of a monster for you to deal with" The earth began to rumble from the cracks that had struck the ground, I began to edge away from them "And it sure likes to feast on sweetie drops as a treat". Then, from the ground, a large, furry, white creature with long silvery claws and razor sharp teeth rose with pure ferocity, looking ready to take me on with its beady dark eyes. From what I could figure out was that Amethyst had some sort of strange blue aura that emitted from her body at frequent times which didn't seem to bother her, but it hadn't appeared back in the room so obviously whatever spell she's using now it is requires more effort and more energy.

"I hope I'm not interrupting anything but it seems that you're clogged up with your own thoughts so let me offer something to cool you off" Amethyst enquired before she ordered her beast to attack me: I had to come up with a quick plan of action to put her wrong doings to a full stop.

The creature gave chase with all its might as it stampeded towards my direction, but unfortunately for the beast I had some spare fog capsules which I used to confuse both it and Amethyst. The fog would give me a few extra minutes to think of a way to get the torn spell page off Amethyst. The fog soon dissipated revealing the outraged creature who swiped its tail at me sending me a couple metres away. It then used its chilly breath to freeze the bottom half of my body in ice so I was completely stuck.

Amethyst cackled a wicked laugh which surprised me how no pony near by complained about the noise we were making in the middle of the night.

"Finish her off and claim your prize" she sternly ordered and the monster complied, creeping ever so slowly towards my whereabouts savouring the moment but I didn't show an ounce of fear (maybe a little) but not enough to put me off my task. The creature had only been able to freeze the bottom half of me so my top half wasn't completely useless, I knew I would have a couple of chemicals that would help melt this ice or possibly blow me up but it was a chance I was willing to take. The beast approached only a few centimetres away raising its massive paws ready to strike. I threw the two chemicals together causing an explosion which let the monster slide down a couple paces away from me plus quickly melting the ice that kept me trapped. I had my chance so using the beast's tail like a staircase I ran up it with some ease whilst it was blinded by the dust. As I reached the top of its head I shot a tranquillising dart at the back of its neck before jumping at the top of its head like a diver so that i could tackle the surprised Amethyst in the sky. We collided and landed on the ground pretty hard, bruising our bodies and legs but I quickly stirred from my dazed state to move us out of the way of the collapsing monster. Amethyst was too dizzy to notice I had her so called spell in my hand and as her headache subsided a bit she saw me rip the page into pieces right in front of her dazed eyes.

"No what have you done" The blue aura began to vigorously burn around her whole body "My, my powers" The monster soon faded away into nothing whilst Amethyst started to get rather shaky and started to amble towards me "I shall not leave this body until I have claimed your soul" Amethyst remarked in some sort of demonic voice with black eyes as the glowing aura around got more intense.

I was too weak to run and there was barely anything left in my pouch to use as backup. So I just crawled over to the nearest house as Amethyst stalked me. It looked like she had won but in some ironic twisted fate a bottle was smashed onto her head from above.

"Will you guys shut the fuck up seriously its like 3 in the morning for luna's sake" came a rather drunk tired voice which was no other than Berry Punch herself.

I was relieved but Amethyst body began to rise with blue aura hovering in mid air. She began making some really strange noise as her eyes glowed white before a powerful stream of light erupted out of her mouth into the air around me. Then she fell back to the ground. I was shocked but then remembered that 3am is the witching hour. Another bottle smashed behind me though not on my head, I turned around to see that Berry Punch had just witnessed what I had just seen and obviously was shocked beyond words: "What crazy bullshit is this?" she drunkly questioned me.

"And to be honest when I look back on that night I have no clue. Now any questions?" Bon Bon happily said, watching the astonished yet awestruck Lyra just give her a round of applause for her crazy tale. And as the two decided to head for the bed no pony seemed to notice two glowing eyes watching the pair before fleeing away into the dark of the night.

THE DELUXE BLUE BAFFLING BERRY MUFFINS

(This fic will include the following characters: Doctor Whooves, Derpy & White Lightning)

Doctor Whooves was sound asleep in his cozy bed, snoring every now and then whilst he dreamt of winning the Nobel Prize for finally perfecting to create his very first time machine.

In his dream, Doctor Whooves was all dressed up in a royal blue suit with a white shirt and a crimson red tie, he stood firm backstage awaiting to walk up to the sound of applause.

"And now I'd like to present, the winner of the science award goes too..." announced the spokes pony, who stood in the bright spotlight gaining suspense from the audience. Doctor Whooves bit his quivering lip with anticipation trying to stifle his pounding heart as sweat drenched his earthy, brown face.

"MUFFIN!"

Doctor Whooves took awhile to register the last word the spokes pony just uttered, his unsteadiness was replaced with pure confusion as well as a tad bit of sorrow. Frantically, Doctor Whooves turned himself towards the backstage pony, who loomed over his shoulder with an emotionless face. The stallion was too busy looking at his check board to see the worried look display on Doctor Whooves face.

"Umm, excuse me, fine sir but, I thought my name was down for the..." Doctor Whooves calmly insisted before being interrupted by the undeterred pony in front of the pony.

"Sorry pal but, I got Muffin on my list so you must be for some other category...or whatever" he replied with less interest towards the situation, with his eyes still permanently locked on his check board. A roar of applause erupted Doctor Whoove's ears from behind him as he quickly spun around to see a giant, blueberry muffin somehow walk up on stage to receive "Doctor Whoove's" prize. The spokes pony made way for the giant muffin before almost as if it was her superior, it coughed dramatically into the mic before lamenting on in a rather strange language: muffin language.

"What bizarre fantasy is this? A muffin, is winning my prize?" he angrily complained, with an accompanied stomp of his hoof of distraught. A hoof prodded his back seeking his attention again, this time the backstage stallion had two big, muscular body guards by his side with a look that could kill.

"Muffin muffin muffin, mufffffiiinn MUFFIN? Muffin..." the stallion questioned a disturbed Doctor Whooves who stood there looking at the backstage pony as if he were insane.

"I'm sorry but, could you repeat that?" Doctor Whooves asked; which only seemed to make the stallion sigh, signalling for the two bodyguards behind him. He blatantly pointed at Doctor Whooves direction:

"Muffin muffin muffin muffin muuuuffin!"

The thud of something huge echoed Doctor Whoove's ears as in the corner of his eye the giant muffin, that was on stage, stomped right behind Doctor Whooves speaking muffin. The bodyguards soon began to gang up on Doctor Whoove's quivering form angrily screaming at him in muffin. All Doctor Whoove's could hear was the never-ending, painful sound of:

"MUFFIN!"

"Muffin?"

"Muffin!"

"MUFFIN!"

"Muffin!"

He was stuck in a swarm of circling sharks, barking out in such a racket that one would struggle to think. The giant muffin suddenly appeared in front of Doctor Whoove's terrified face screeching "MUFFIN!" for one final time. He awoke squealing in fright from his strange, yet, chilling nightmare of...muffins. His eyes connected with a pair of ditzy yellow eyes that were accompanied with a beaming grin from a certain light grey pegasus.

"Good morning, Doc, oh it looks like you had one of them bad dreams, are you okay?" Derpy affectionately said to the shaken Doctor. He calmly wiped the sweat that drenched his brow before sitting up in his bed to check the clock on his bedside table.

"Derpy! Why are you up at this time it is barely even in 6am, in the morning?"

"How do you not know Doc"

"What?" The Doctor then gasped in shock "Is the Science Conference for Unsung Scientists today"

"No, I didn't even know that was a thing but, today the supermarket is releasing the latest blue baffling berry muffins" Doctor just sighed before resting back in bed "You know they only come round once a year due to the rareness of the berries"

It wasn't long for the Doctor to suddenly start snoring again, this of course caught the attention of Derpy who calmly poked the dazed Doctor till he awoke again from his nap.

"Huh? Oh right well then let's go to this opening of your" Derpy smile seemed to gleam more by the second by The Doctor's words "...muffins"

The Doctor and Derpy were walking normally though the streets going to the super market. Doctor Whooves could see the pure excitement all over Derpy’s before having a question come to mind.

“Derpy, what exactly is so special about these berries besides being rare”he questioned

“I’m so glad for you to ask, they say that the very first berries had formed during a full moon, in the late summer season. Somewhere discrete and hidden in a dark, woody forest near a clear, spring of water. Only a lucky few could taste the irresistible flavour of the special berries which had a very unique and distinct taste that was indescribable.”

Doctor Whooves listened with interest evaluating each point Derpy stated.

“And now I hope to join the lucky few of tasting that delicious muffin” she finally stated with her tongue lulled out of her mouth as she pictured herself eating the sacred muffin.

They finally reached the entrance of the super market where it was packed with many pastel ponies inside.

“It’s like the whole town is here” he inquisitively said. Derpy had already lost contact with the outside world as she gazed at the banners advertising the famed blue, baffling, berry muffins. She was caught off guard when the speaker erupted with a static noise.

“The annual deluxe, blue, baffling, berry muffins are on limited stock on aisle 7, I repeat there is limited stock of the D.B.B.B.M on aisle 7. First come, first serve, thank you” the speaker announcer concluded with another static noise.

And then, just like that a whole horde of ponies started to stampede off to aisle 7. Both Doctor and Derpy were shellshocked at how fast everyone was running as well as the numbers of ponies. The double doors of the entrance flooded with more ponies from outside of he supermarket, who obviously the heard he announcement. The swarm were so many that they sped past Doctor and Derpy in a flash leaving them on the ground. Derpy shook herself over getting up after the horde had gone also helping the very confused Doctor onto his hooves.

“Come on, Doctor, we got some muffins to salvage” Derpy determinedly said before speedily flying off without warning leaving Doctor Whooves to chase after her.

Derpy flew over, what felt like thousands beyond thousands of ponies navigating all around for the desirable stand holding her muffins. She clearly forgot about her friend, The Doctor, who was way, way back behind the humongous crowd barely breathing due to running so hard after her. A sudden static noise enveloped everyone’s ears once again.

“Sorry folks but, I seemed to have said the wrong aisle number for the last opportunity to grab those delectable muffins it should be on aisle...1” the transmission ended.

Everyone started doing a U-turn around to the entrance of the super market heading into Doctor Whooves direction of travel. He screamed at the incoming stampede of ponies as they pretty much trampled all over him leaving him at the back again with several hoof marks as well as bruises on his face. He stumbled over to a shelf of items for balance as he watched Derpy zip ahead into the distance. He stumbled over to a shelf of items for balance as he watched Derpy zip ahead into the distance. Before hearing a sound of falling items above him, the last thing he saw was a giant book called ‘How to train your dragon’ come towards him.

Meanwhile in one of marketing booths, two chuckling foals were busy messing around with the mic for the speakers. The two could be recognised as a tall yellow unicorn and a stout blue unicorn, otherwise known as Snips and Snails. Somehow they had earned jobs as assistants for bagging when right now they had left there work places to have some “fun”.

“OH did I say aisle 1 what I really meant was aisle 14” Snips exclaimed, trying to stop himself from chuckling whilst the mic was on. His friend, Snails nudged him out of the way to get ahold the mic with his magic.

“Remember folks they are limited, emphasis on limited” he finally stated before Snips got ahold of it again. They watched as everyone skidded around to go the other direction laughing at the crazy display they had caused.

“Ha! Look at them run, Snails, they’re a bunch of headless chickens”

“They sure are, Snips, this beats bagging at the counter any time”

“Let’s keep going”

Snips tried to reach for the mic but Snails was holding onto it rather protectively.

“Hey! What gives?”

“It’s my turn”

“No it’s not you had your turn it’s mine”

“Nope, mine”

Both Snips and Snails began fighting over the mic not realising they had turned it on accidentally. Everyone who was in the supermarket could hear every word they said: including their manager, who wasn’t impressed.

“I’m the one who thought of this genius plan to tell the wrong aisle number for the shoppers” Snips confesses on the mic.

Every shopper had halted at the sound of this new remark getting confused or annoyed.

“It doesn’t matter though they trust me more than they trust you” Snails concluded on the mic before sounds of fighting were heard none the less.

The manager stormed furiously over towards their current position yanking the mic out of both their hooves before staring them down with an angry expression on his face. The two gulped in guilt before getting off one another, and smile nervously at their outraged boss.

“Umm, Hi boss, funny seeing you here” he nervously chuckled but, his boss was not amused.

“Funny? You think this is FUNNY? You two have violated numerous rules here which I have set down by slacking off your jobs, annoying good paying customers and INFURIATING ME!”

The two held each other for support at the manager’s wave of fury.

“The next time you want to trick some pony around here DON’T ANNOUNCE IT TO THE WHOLE SUPERMARKET!” he yelled, before finally switching off the damn mic.

“So does this mean we get promoted?” Snails dumbly questioned.

The manager answered his question by kicking both of them out of the supermarket before screeching “YOUR FIRED” whilst he closed the doors.

Doctor Whooves awoke groggily in Aisle 13, worst of all he started hallucinating things that weren’t there. It seemed that any time he wanted to escape the aisle he would just wind up back in the same spot over again.

“This can’t be happening I’ve been here for hours if not days. How in Equestria do I get out of this damned place!?” he fearfully said to himself.

“By facing the guardian sir” a cheerful voice replied

Doctor Whooves spun around scared, not expecting an answer. He looked around trying to figure out the direction of the source.

“W-Who was that?”

“It was me” replied the voice again from behind him.

Doctor Whooves spin around to see little Dinky Hooves wearing some sort of costume related to D&D. She wore an elvish blue dress that hid her back hooves, her hair was neatly braided resting on her shoulder and her ears seemed more pointed than usual.

“You look” he inspected her more “...different”

“I may be sir but, you are in danger, the guardian will be here soon to face you. And you must prepare for battle”

“Battle? What guardian?”

“The guardian is what has troubled you in the past, something you fear”

The elvish Dinky began to slowly fade away before so she somehow magicked up a sword for Doctor Whooves to take.

“Time is of the essence, noble warrior, fight what you fear and escape this nightmare” she finally said before vanishing in a beam of light.

Doctor Whooves watched as Aisle 13 became more dark and ominous in front of him and all around. Somehow he had earned some armour through his distress which covered every inch of him. His ears perked at the sound of loud thumping, knowing all to well what it could be. The thumping became louder and louder before finally reaching Doctor Whooves whereabouts, he shakily bared his sword in a defensive way. The thing revealed itself to him with an monstrous roar as Doctor Whooves frightfully whimpered “Oh muffins”.

Derpy, on the other hoof had successfully got herself in front of the crowd as well as locate the correct aisle containing her prized muffins. Her eye turned into love hearts at the site of them all she needed was to get to them before any pony else. She triumphantly sped towards the stand of prized muffins, falling over clumsily in front of the stand before victoriously getting up to take the last muffin. But, a streak of white flashed before a ditsy eyes and as she axes upon the stand: the last muffin was gone. Derpy watched a smirking white Pegasus with teal hair triumphantly hold he muffin in her clutches. This enraged Derpy even more.

“Hey! White lighting, you stole my muffin!”

“What are you talking about? I got here way before you could even touch it”

“Why you-”

“If you want the muffin so badly then, I guess you better” she unsuspectedly flew off “..hurry” she finally said.
Derpy grit her teeth in anger as she did like a Tasmanian devil and sped after her fuming.

...

Doctor Whooves was down by his luck getting pounded by this humongous, mother of all muffins. He cowered away in fear as the thing got rid of his sword and hulk smashed him into a shelf. He wearily got up from the fallen items watching the distance between him and the muffin grow thin.

Derpy wasn’t doing well at all to keep up with the ‘lightning’ speed of White. No matter how hard she pushed other passer buyers out of the way or tried to block her she always got away, but in the back of her mind she felt like she was missing something, something very important to her.

Doctor Whooves felt the same epiphany and remembered a certain joyful, grey pegasus was counting on him to defeat this...muffin. He couldn’t let her down after all, her joyful enthusiasm brought him the best of joy through hard times. He reflected on a distant memory

Flashback...

Doctor Whooves furiously chucked some mechanical parts behind him, hitting his wooden door leading to the remainder of his home. Derpy was stunned by his outburst and stopped outside his door, carrying a tray of muffins.

“Doc, are you okay?” she questioned.

“It never works, every time I try or think that thing is fixed it just spasms out and ugh!” he slammed his head on his work bench, spilling his now cold hot chocolate near him. Derpy smiled as she gracefully came into his workplace and placed the tray of muffins down by him. Derpy though hard, squinting her ditsy eyes before picking up an empty muffin holder and slammed it in front of the Doctor who raised his head.

“Derpy, what-”

“See this muffin"

"What muffin, it's-"

"Empty? Well that's how most muffins start of as" The Doctor looked at her, slightly confused "Think of this as your foundation..if you don't add the yummy ingredients to this empty holder then how will it rise to its fluffy texture in the oven"

"..."

She patted him on the back, knocking his work goggles back on his face before grabbing her tray of muffins leaving the empty one on the Doctor's workbench.

"I'm sure you'll get it, Doc, eventually, and I'll be here to support you all the way"

"Thanks, Derpy"

They both shared a compassionate smile.

End of flashback

Something split inside Doctor Whooves and he felt the adrenaline burn inside him. He burst into flames which blinded the monster muffin before him, halting its torment. When the sudden light had dissipated, what was left was a brave warrior, equipped with the finest, strongest armour. His chestnut brown hair swayed in the subtle breeze as he raised his mighty sword that reflected his noble expression.

"Let us finish this" he announced, getting ready to charge.

The monster muffin bellowed an extravagant roar before charging towards a well prepared Doctor, who only smirked as he readied himself for the onslaught.

He swung his sword down, which connected with the fluffy outer structure of the muffin slicing a piece of it. Enraged by this, the muffin swung the Doctor towards a whole of stock of items which collapsed on top of the Doctor as soon as he made impact. The muffin growled as it advanced on the fallen Doctor it tried to swing at him again but ended up receiving a jab in the side from his sword. It leaned back pulling the Doctor and his sword with him before twirling around and chucking him to the other side of the aisle.

"What is wrong with this thing, it doesn't seem to get weakened by any of my attempts unless..." The Doctor saw some discarded flour to his side and thought of a plan. An unsettling roar caught his attention, yet again, the muffin grunted and charged at him with the impaled sword within it. As it neared, the Doctor, opened the packet of flour spraying it on the muffin temporarily blinding it for just enough time for him to reach the sword. The muffin tried to shake free but the Doctor held it in place.

"Arrivedeci, muffin!"

The Doctor used all his strength to lift the sword straight through the middle of the muffin's core ripping it into two separate pieces.
As the pieces fell, a new fire burned deep inside of him: it was victory. He watched as everything start to disappear around him into darkness before awakening to see a joyous face.

"Oh Doc, you really scared us there, we thought you were stuck in a coma or something"

The Doctor rose himself up in a seating position to see that he was laying in a pile of items particularly seeing the massive book that caused him to black out.

"How long have I been out?"

"Long enough" Derpy hugged him "I'm so sorry for running off like that, it's just, I really wanted to eat those muffins but, I didn't even realise you were hurt"

"It's okay, Derpy, seriously I'll be fine"

Derby broke their hug, with a beaming smile as she sat by the Doctor. The two were interrupted when said special muffin was presented in front of them. Derpy gazed up to see White Lightning standing before her in an apologetic way.

"Sorry to interrupt but, I think this muffin belongs to you" she calmly admitted, Derpy watched in awe, almost salivating at the sight. She quickly grabbed the muffin but had second thoughts when she saw White Lightning walk away without another word. White Lightning was about to leave but she was pulled back onto the ground by Derpy, near the Doctor. They both confusingly watched Derpy karate chop the muffin successfully into three (sort of messy) pieces. She daringly each of one of them a piece before sandwiching herself between the puzzled pair.

"Why are you guys pulling that expression?" she questioned.

"It's just..shocking to see you actually split a muffin in order to share with others" the Doctor explained.

"What's so shocking about it?"

"You're crazy for muffins, so for you to-"

"Don't think too hard on it, Doc. It's not a big deal"

"Why are you giving me a piece? I mean I stole it from you" White Lightning intervened in the conversation.

"Many ponies are misunderstood, take it from me but, if you guys don't eat your pieces in the next few seconds, I will eat them for you"

They both took no further inquiries and enjoyed their pieces with pure delight, all three relished in the ecstasy of the flavour and texture of the muffin. The sun began to set outside the windows of the super market on the beautiful setting of Ponyville.
