Chapter One:The Request
Pinkie Pie didn't think today would be as crazy she would find it to be. She woke up, walked to Sugar Cube Corner, and got to work. She make 3 cakes, one for Twilight, and two for herself.
"Ah! The joys of making cupcakes!" she exclaimed, the fresh smell lingering in the morning air.
"Every day you bake away, so I think i must order, if that's OK," said Zecora as she walked through the open door.
"Why sure Zecora! How many and what flavor?" asked Pinkie, awaiting a response.
"I'll take two dozen cupcakes, but be warned, they are not easy to make!" Zecora said with a bit of a whisper.
Pinkie suddenly realized this may not be a walk in the park.
"So what flavor Zecora?" Pinkie asked hesitantly.
"I'd like prickle pear cake flavor, with icing that is sure to savor. The ingredients are not easy to find, unless you take your precious time," said Zecora.
"What will I need?" asked Pinkie, hoping it wouldn't be too complicated.
"Two sticks of cinnamon, just bring them in. Sugar in a cup, just fill it up. 7 small blue flowers, for they hold medicinal powers. Three prickly pear fruit, be sure they suit. One cup of icing, make sure it is enticing," said Zecora, listing her ingredients on a paper. She handed the paper to Pinkie Pie.
"How will I make these??" Pinkie asked, rather confused.
"I know a good pony that is no phony!" replied Zecora.
"OK!" exclaimed Pinkie.
"Go now, there isn't much time! There are many things you need to find!" exclaimed Zecora.
So Pinkie started her journey into the Everfree Forest. She would meet up with Thistle Whistle and find the ingredients. But what may lurk in the Everfree Forest?

Chapter Two:7 Blue Flowers
Pinkie Pie had just been given an order to make two dozen cupcakes for Zecora. She needed two cinnamon sticks, a cup of sugar, 7 blue flowers, some enticing icing, and three prickly pear fruits. Zecora told her that Thistle Whistle, a green Earth Pony with a music note cutie mark would be waiting in the forest. Pinkie decided to see if she was at Zecora's home.
"Hello? I'm Pinkie Pie! I'm looking for Thistle Whistle, a green Earth pony..." said Pinkie Pie, as she looked around slowly.
A neon green pony stepped forward from the trees.
"Hi! I'm Thistle Whistle! Nice to meet you, Pinkie!" said a very excited Thistle Whistle.
"Oh, hi Thistle!" replied Pinkie, even more excited than Thistle Whistle.
"Well let's get going!" exclaimed Thistle.
"First on the list:7 blue flowers," said Thistle.
The two walked all around the Everfree Forest, wondering where the flowers may be. After an hour, they sat down for a break.
"I know where!" yelled Thistle Whistle.
"They are BEHIND Zecora's house!!"
Pinkie rolled her eyes and exhaled loudly. This was going to be a LONG trip.
When they had finished collecting the flowers, Thistle Whistle found it necessary to stop for lunch. The two had sandwiches and fresh apples from Sweet Apple Acres. When they were finished, they got up and started walking.
"Next on the list:two cinnamon sticks." said Pinkie Pie.
So the two went off in search of cinnamon sticks.
