Chapter 26
Just the tip.

“So this is it?” Nova asked Luna as they both stood in front of the doors to Discord’s dream, ornaments that were adorning the stone gate were perfectly designed, chocolate milk exploding on the meadow full of popping popcorn and some flying rabbits soaring the sky while purple clouds were chasing them. Truly a gateway worthy of Discord.

“Yes, that is a door I never opened before.” She answered.

“What? Why?”

“For some reason I didn’t really see this as a good idea.” She said nervously scratching her head.

“Well, I am sure this is a great idea and nothing bad will happen to us while we are in there.”

“W-Why did you emphasize those two words?”

“I did what?”

“Yeah right, Nova I really think we should just go to my dream, or if you want to watch some dreams then how about your friends? Or maybe Riddick, wouldn’t you like to see what your Captain dreams about?”

“Actually that sounds really good, but I have see what’s in there.” Nova said with pure determination in his voice.

“But… fine, let’s do this.” Luna gave up and sighed, Nova smiled and gently took her hoof with his own.

“Don’t worry Lulu, it’ll be fun.” He said reassuringly. Luna smiled and nodded with small blush on her muzzle.

“All right, there’s no time to lose, we only have few hours left before the night.”

“Already?”

“I told you, while you are in this realm your sense of time will go crazy, only I can tell what hour is it in the real world thanks to my magic.”

Supernova smiled gently and with determination written all over his muzzle he nodded and pushed the door open.

“Come on everypony smile smile smile! Fill my heart up with Sunshine, sunshine…” Pinkie sang to herself as she happily bounced around in the kitchen of Sugarcube Corner.

Like every morning she got up early and started her day by cooking some delicious treats, her fiancé was currently helping her by working at the counter, greeting customers and selling her sweet creations.

However Pinkie’s usual morning routine was interrupted by Pierce, who suddenly entered the kitchen with something held by his magic.

“Umm Pinkie, this just appeared out of thin air and it is addressed to you, any idea who it might be from?” He asked and handled her what turned out to be a letter in paper envelope with words ‘To Pinkie Pie.’ written on it.

“A letter suddenly appearing from nothing addressed to me? Either Twilight found a new way to send letters or….” She didn’t finish and instead ripped the envelope open and took out its contents.

She stayed silent and read the note with her eyes quickly jumping from one word to another, Pierce stared at her and waited for his answer, until suddenly Pinkie’s smile widened and she jumped into air.

“What was in the letter Pinkie?” Pierce asked getting more and more curious.

“Oh just one of my friends asking me for a help with something! Piercey would you be so nice and get my recipe for special Cupcake?”

Pierce sighed in defeat knowing very well he won’t learn the identity of the pony who send this letter. “Sure honey, give me a second.”

Pinkie bounced around giggling all the while. “Oh Discord! There’s nothing better to help with your problem than my super duper special cupcake! Nopony shall resist it’s deliciousness!”

“To be honest I expected something more…”

“Chaotic?” Luna finished his sentence as they walked holding hoofs through a silent road in the middle of calm forest.

“Yeah, so far we didn’t meet anything weird, I mean so far almost every time we entered somepony’s dream we either saw something I didn’t expect or something that got me traumatized.”

“Yeah sorry about that.”

“Oh it’s not your fault, and besides I never really liked cake or cupcakes that much.”

Luna chuckled and leaned closer into her coltfriend resting her head on his neck. “Maybe it wasn’t what you expected, but it sure is nice, isn’t it?”

Nova smiled. “Yeah, I guess.”

They continued to walk in silence, enjoying this blissful moment of just being together without anypony to interrupt, until they finally found something that caught Nova’s eyes.

They saw the end of the road they walked on for so long, it was a small wooden tavern.

“What do you think this is Luna?”

“Who knows.”

Nova smiled. “Maybe this will get a bit more interesting.”

“I think I prefer it when it’s calm Nova.”

“Oh come on, where’s your sense of adventure!”

“You sound just like Pip.”

Nova raised his eyebrow. “Who’s Pip?”

“Oh he’s the bravest, most adorable pirate in Equestria, you’ll love this kid when you meet him.”

Nova sighed with relief. “So he’s a kid? Good I was afraid I have competition.”

Luna giggled. “Who said you don’t?”

Nova stopped suddenly and laughed. “All those ponies who say that you don’t have a sense of humour should hear this, good joke, yeah good joke.”

Luna said nothing and instead continued her walk towards the tavern with smirk on her muzzle.

“That was a joke right? Hey Luna! Come on!” He shouted and quickly ran up to his marefriend who was on a verge of bursting out into laughter.

“Oh very funny.” Nova commented

“I didn’t think you would fell for that, I mean he’s just a kid.”

“Well pardon me, I thought that somepony who is over thousand years old won’t really care about age difference.”

Luna suddenly stopped surprising Nova who did the same after few more steps and turned back only to see Luna with annoyed expression. “Are you calling me old?”

Oh shit.’ Were only words that came into Nova’s mind.

Pinkie, who got to work as soon as her fiancé brought her the recipe was almost done and her masterpiece was soon to be finished.

She smiled proudly as she finished the job by gently putting few sprinkles on top of the delicious looking cupcake.

“Aaand done! My super duper special cupcake once more will save the day! But how am I supposed to deliver it to him?”

“We’ll have to deliver it like every other cupcake won’t we?” Pierce asked, he entered the kitchen not so long ago.

“Well yeah but that would take a lot of time and…” Pinkie didn’t get to finish her sentence as the cupcake suddenly vanished into thin air. “Oh hey that works too!”

Pierce stared at the table which now was empty with his eyes opened wide. “Seriously Pinkie who did you make that cupcake for?!”

“Oh just a friend of mine.”

“But… forget it, I’ll be selling stuff if you need me.”

“Sure Piercey!”

He was about to leave the kitchen but then something hit him, a small detail that went unnoticed until now. “Hey Pinkie?”

“Yeah?”

“Wasn’t your super duper special cupcake white with pink frosting?”

“Yes? Why are you asking?”

“Well the one you made and your friend teleported, was blue with dark-blue frosting.”

“It was?” Pinkie quickly took up the recipe and studied it carefully. “Uh oh.”

“Uh oh?” Pierce asked concerned. “Pinkie what uh oh? Don’t give me uh oh! Last time you said that I ended up covered in frosting with carrots glued to my back!”

“Well it seems I didn’t do the super duper special cupcake.”

“Then what did you create?”

Pinkie smiled nervously. “Remember that cupcake with special ingredient which was supposed to make ponies more open, but instead ended up making them horny for everypony and everything that they saw?”

Pierce’s expression went pale and his whole body shivered. “You don’t have to remind me this, I will never forget that day.”

“Yeah I bet that bear won’t either!”

“Pinkie!”

“Sorry ,sorry.”

“So, you send him that cupcake?”

“Yep!”

“What will happen now?”

“Only author knows.” She said and happily bounced away.

“Oh yeah that’s… wait who?!” Pierce shouted.

“I’m here!” A colt with brown fur and a red tie shouted from outside the kitchen.

Pierce stared without focus for few moments and sighed. “If I didn’t love that mare I would go mad long ago.”
