We start with a portal opening in the sky above a small city.

"AAAAAAHHHHH!!!!

And our pink pony protagonist happens to... drop in. Fortunately, due to her bouncy/stretchy/random nature, she lands.... relatively unharmed.

"Ugh. Says you."

I said "relatively". And can you keep the 4th wall breaks to a minimum?

"iiiI make no promises. Have you even met me?"

(sigh) It'll have to do, I suppose.

"You know what you signed up for by putting me here. So, what's the dish around here, anyway?"

Funny you should put it like that. This place is practically all about food.

"Oooh! Sounds exciting."

Oh, that's just the start. look to your left. You'll see our other protagonists

"The ones over at the food cart?"

They're the ones. Why don't you go say hello?

"That I will."

Anyway, Pinkie trots over to two of our other main protagonists, Chase and Kayla.

"That smells gooood! what are you cooking?" Pinkie asks cheerily.

"Sticky fried rice, currently." Chase replies.

"Want some?" Kayla adds.

Clearly they haven't noticed who they're talking to. Give it a moment.

"I'd love some." Pinkie replies. "Hold on a moment."

Fishing a few bits out of her mane, Pinkie hoofs them over to the cooks.

"Wait a minute. Are these... gold coins?" Chase asks, still not noticing the odd customer.

"We call them bits where I come from." Pinkie clarifies

"And where- What the?!" Chase exclaims, finally noticing who he's talking to.

"Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie!" Pinkie greets cheerily. "Can I have some of what you're making, since I paid for it already?" she adds.

Kayla notices who Chase is talking to and gasps. hearts suddenly in her eyes. "It's a pretty pony!"

"Thanks!"

Kayla dashes over and hugs Pinkie.

"Come on, Chase! Plate some rice for her." Kayla demands. Pointing over at the seats/tables nearby, Kayla says, "Why don't you take a seat?"

Pinkie chuckles. "I think I'll just occupy one instead." she jokes, doing just that.

Shortly thereafter, Chase says, "Order up!" tossing the plated dish (along with some cutlery) to the seated pony, who immediately digs in.

The dish is steaming and glistening, indicating its sheer amount of flavour.

Pinkie briefly pauses, saying, "Delicious!" before continuing.

"Well, we always appreciate a good eater." Kayla says.

"Especially one who pays well." Chase quips

Another voice enters the conversation. "Who are you talking to, you two?"

"Hey Ozlo!" Chase greets. "This is Pinkie Pie."

"Just call me Pinkie." the pony in question says. "It's easier."

Ozlo gasps. "An Equestrian pony? A rare sight, indeed. Also a bringer of good luck. And I can tell that Pinkie here is a cook as well."

"How did you know?" Pinkie asks.

"Ozlo is a good judge of character." Kayla explains.

"Most of the time, anyway." Chase jokes.

"Insulting... but alas correct." Ozlo admits. "Since you can cook, why don't you show us what you can do?" he requests.

"I'd love to!" Pinkie exclaims, tossing her plate back toward Chase, it landing directly on the stack of plates ready to be washed.

"A ringer! It's a gift."

Pinkie reaches behind a nearby lamppost, pulling out a circular counter surface, which comes equipped with a stove/oven, a small refrigerator, a cupboard and a sink.

Quite amazed, the other three look on with their eyes wide and their jaws dropped somewhat.

Pinkie pulls out a bunch of ingredients, launching into a song, music starting to play as well.

Sliding the tray with what she whipped up, she ends the song.

"Okay, I'm making a full-sizedl cake, but the process is close to the same." she admits.

"How did you DO that?!" Chase queries.

"That was amazing!" Kayla adds.

"I'll tell you the story sometime. For now, i'm not done yet!"

Just then... *Ding!*

"Done!" she exclaims.

Reaching into the oven, she pulls out a much larger cake than she put in.

"Now we REALLY get tasty up'n here!" Grimacing, she adds, "Remind me to never use that phrase again."

Reaching into the fridge again, she brings out a container of frosting. Reaching into the cupboard she brings out one of sprinkles. Adding liberal amounts of both and smoothing it out, she exclaims, "Now, who wants a slice o' this beast?!"

"Uh..." all three watchers say in unison, still at a loss for words.

Just then, a rumble came from a distance.

"BEEFSTEAK!" a deep voice rumbled.

Looking toward the source of the voice, they see what seems to be a giant cow!

Ozlo grimaces. "Speaking of beasts..."

Kayla covers her mouth with her folded hands, as if she'd just said something profane. "What do we do, Ozlo?!" she queries.

One might rightly ask how someone might clearly enunciate with their mouth covered, but this isn't the time for that.

Fishing into his robe, Ozlo pulls out two cards. "These are deluxe meal tickets. They'll make whatever dish you use them on into a super-powered Foodon." Turning to Pinkie, he adds, "A creature that will fight for you."

Chase quickly gets to making s dish of fried rice. Tossing the meal ticket onto the plated dish, he says, "Now serving: Fried Ricer!"

And sure enough, his Foodon appears, brandishing a pair of giant spoons.

Pinkie's eyes sparkle and she turs to her concoction, using the ticket she was given. "Now serving, uh...." Pinkie is at a loss for what to call her first foodon, but then remembers what she referred to it as. "AHA!" She exclaims. "Now serviiiing: Beastcake!"

Appearing before her is a huge cake in the form of a half dire bear, half cake.

"Awesome!" she shouts, leaping onto her foodon's back. "YAH!"

The enormous half-bear looked toward her (as much as it could), one eyebrow raised.

"Sorry. Heat of the moment." Pinkie said, shrugging.

The foodon shakes its head in disapproval. Then it rears up, roaring, "BEASTCAKE!" and dashes forth, Chase following with Fried Ricer shortly thereafter.

"Good luck, you two." Ozlo says, glaring confidently.

The monstrous cow stomps through the town, occasionally setting something on fire and/or calling out its name.

Chase shouts, "HEY, YA UNDERCOOKED RUMP ROAST! Pick on someone your own size!"

Clearly insulted, the monster blows a gout of flame toward the four would-be heroes.

Pinkie's Foodon retalliates with a beam-like blast of frosting, assisted by one from Chase's Fried Ricer. Together they manage to overpower the monster's attack, stunning it briefly.

"NOW! Give it everything you've got!" both cooks shouted, pointing at the monster.

Their creatures shouted as well, before firing off their attacks. The beams combined in mid-air spiralling together and streaking toward the giant cow.

The Beefsteak monster stood no chance of withstanding the combined assault, but it tried, firing off a blast of flame, which was quickly overpowered, flying back through the way it came.. In midair, it dissolved, leaving behind its meal ticket. The town was safe once more.
