Nightmares In Paradise
Chapter 15: The Hunger Games
Previous Chapter Next Chapter"You WHAT?!" Applejack screamed, shocked beyond belief. Her brother had just said he wanted a child. He had never consulted with her about this, they had talked about having Babies before, but Big Mac said he wasn't ready yet, and Applejack agreed, so they just stopped the baby conversations altogether, that was sometime last Year. And now, the bombshell had been dropped.
"Ah wanna have have a baby, sis...." Big Mac said, looking at the ground.
"Ah don't understand." Applejack said, blinking. "We've talked about this stuff numerous times before, and ya always said ya weren't ready."
"Ah wasn't sure before. So I did something I may have regretted...." Big Mac said, tears starting to form? Applejack gasped. What could her brother have done?
"What'ya do?" Applejack asked, worried.
"Ah've been spiking your drinks with Birth Control pills every day since last Month." Big Mac said, looking in the eyes of his sister. Applejack gasped.
"But...Why?" She asked, concerned about her brother's thoughts.
"Ah wasn't sure about it yet...." Big Mac explained. "But now I realize, ah WANT a baby. And ah WILL stop spikin' your drinks, sis."
Applejack looked at the ground. This was all too much for her to process, two giant secrets had just been revealed to her. She almost wanted to run away, like she had before when she was younger. But the more she thought about it, the more she thought it was a great idea.
"Alright...." Applejack said, suddenly smiling. "Let's have a baby." Big Mac's jaw dropped, he expected an argument, or just a simple no, and that would be it. But his sister had just yes to being the mother of his child.
"Are.....Are ya sure, sis?" Big Mac asked, not wanting to goat his sister into this situation if she didn't want to do it.
Applejack smiled. "I sure as hay am, Big Mac. We'll need ta wait a while. Ya know, cuz them birth control pills need to expire." Big Mac nodded.
"A'course, a'course." Big Mac said, and the two siblings hugged. It was sure to be a happy time at Sweet Apple Acres. "What about the farm?"
"We'll figure it out, don't you worry." Applejack answered, making Big Mac feel better.
Carousel Boutique...
Rarity came back from the bathroom with some Gauze for Zane's bloodied nose. Nathan didn't need any medical attention, although Rarity thought about cutting his hooves off so to keep her rump from being smacked in the Future, but she quickly brushed off the evil side of her mind.
"Here you go, darling..." Rarity said, applying the gauze to Zane's nostrils. "Hold that by your nose for a while, it will absorb the blood." Rarity smiled.
"I did not know you could judo Flip...." Nathan said, still not able to move off his back.
Rarity giggled. "I may be a proper lady, but I know how to defend myself in dangerous situations." She then noticed Nathan hadn't moved yet. "Are you alright? You haven't moved in quite a while."
"Just star struck...." Nathan said, grinning.
"I am not from your planet..." Rarity began. "But I must concur that Humans do not date, or, in your case, try to....." Rarity sighed. "What's the word I'm looking for.....Violate! Yes, that's it. Humans do not violate a Ponies body on Earth, do they?"
Zane and Nathan nodded no. "Not unless they're creeps...." Zane said, applying pressure on his nose.
"Then....Why would you INSIST on being so.....Forceful with me?" Rarity asked curiously.
Zane and Nathan blushed, not wanting to tell this to a Pony. "On Earth....." Nathan started. "We aren't exactly considered the most....SMOOTH Humans."
Rarity gasped, regretting that she asked the question. "Oh....." She frowned. "I'm sorry...."
"It's alright." Zane replied. "We can't get a girlfriend, so we come onto Ponies. We know we're weird...." Zane and Nathan frowned.
Rarity smiled, feeling sorry for the poor boys. She put a hoof on Zane's shoulder. "Nonsense!" Rarity exclaimed. "You aren't weird. You're just.....Going about this the wrong way. I'm sure you can both find the Pony of your dreams right here in Ponyville!" The confidence Rarity had in Zane and Nathan made them smile.
"Who are your favorite Ponies?" Rarity asked.
"YOU." Nathan said, making Rarity cringe.
"Ummm......" Rarity said, not sure what to say. "That's....Very....Kind of you?" She smiled sarcastically. "What about yours, Zane?"
"Chrysalis." Zane said simply. Rarity's eyes bulged.
"The.....Queen of Changelings?" Rarity said quietly. Zane nodded. ".....Forget I said anything. Maybe you just....Need to change your attitude a bit."
"What do you mean?" Zane and Nathan said simultaneously.
"Do you....Always act all.....Pervy like this?" Rarity asked.
"Yup." Zane said, Nathan nodded. "Can't help it, just our nature."
"Well...." Rarity began. "Why don't you try to act more....Wholesome? Normal?"
"NORMAL......" Zane and Nathan stared in awe. "Cool word...." Zane said.
"Rarity. Wanna go on a date with me?" Nathan asked out of nowhere. "I'll act.....NORMAL. No funny business."
"Uuuuuhhhhhhh....." Rarity tried to think of an excuse to get out of this. "Oh! Look at the time! I must get back to work!" With that, Rarity started sewing once again.
"Tough luck, bro...." Zane said, putting a hoof on Nathan's shoulder.
"What are you talking about?" Nathan said, smirking. "That's not a no...."
Flight Training with Rainbow Dash.....
Rainbow Dash's last Nerve was being destroyed, Nova and Ze were making a bit of progress, but were still failing, non-the-less.
"Ugh..." Rainbow said, shaking her head at these goofs expense. "That's enough for today, guys.....We'll pick it up again, tomorrow...."
"Did Ze do good?" Ze asked, grinning.
"WHAT ABOUT ME?!" Nova asked. "DID I RAPE THAT SHIT?!"
"Ehhh...Coulda seen better..." Rainbow said, shrugging. "You're about....1.485.283.0283% awesome right now."
"Good enough for us!" Nova yelled, Ze nodded.
The General Store....
Freddie had decided to not only buy Tate a scooter, but to buy Damian one, and Kit a bike, since he was mature enough to handle one. He also decided to buy himself some hair gel, since...He didn't have any on him.
The scooters and bike matched the Boys hair color. Tate's scooter was blonde, Damian's scooter was black, and Kit's bike was brown. All in all, each Scooter cost 20 bits, the bike cost 30, and the hair Gel cost 2.
"Guess we should get to Sugarcube corner, see how Punk and your new girly friends are doing." Tate and Damian groaned, they didn't want to see THEM again.
"I'm sure to beat...Umm, Scootapoo in the race NOW!" Tate said, excited. "I've got the best scooter EVER!"
"Scooters are for little boys..." Kit said, smirking. "Bikes are for the big kids."
"Quit your bragging," Damian warned. "Before I run you over..." Kit gulped. His brother's weren't as smart as him, but he knew they were way more violent than him.
"I just can't believe the NERVE of that store owner..." Freddie said. "Telling me to grab the purple rooster on my head..." He scowled. The boys laughed.
"That was funny." Tate said. "You DO have a rooster on your head!"
Damian giggled. "Yeah! And you dyed it, too!"
Freddie smirked, he knew how to mess with his kids, as well. After all, he was pretty much a kid himself. He took a deep breath, and yelled. "WHO WANTS TWO FREE SCOOTERS?!?!" Many of the civilians started yelling, "ME! ME! I DO! I DO!" Horsepower came by, and only yelled "YEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! SCOOTERS ARE MANLY!!!!!!!!"
"SORRY, DAD!" Damian said, sweating. He didn't want to lose his scooter.
"YEAH!' Tate said. "We think your hair is.....AWESOME!!!" He really thought it looked gay and stupid, but he was the best liar out of the three.
Freddie smiled. "Good, keep it that way...." With that, they all went off to Sugarcube Corner to meet with their friends.
Sugarcube Corner....
"It's DOOOOONNNEE!" Pinkie Pie said sing-songingly.
"Oh yeah!" Scootaloo said, excited. "Bring out this bad boy!" Just then, Pinkie Pie, AND Marcus, because it was so big, brought out about a 4 foot tall Cupcake. Drenched in Peach, Strawberry, and Vanilla ice Cream, and coated with chocolate syrup, licorice, gum-drops, and cookies. Pinkie wanted to eat the whole thing by herself in one bite. But if she did that, 2 things would happen....1, her brain would be as cold as an icicle for an hour, and....It would go straight to her thighs....And then she'll blow up. (SpongeBob reference!)
"Holy mother of..." Punk said, looking at the walking carbs in awe.
"I'm gonna be as plump as a dang gum tick!" Apple Bloom exclaimed.
"Rarity would KILL me if she saw me eating all of this...." Sweetie Belle said, gaining an evil grin in the process. Scootaloo? Well, she just fainted from epicness.
"Here you guys go!" Pinkie said, smiling from ear to ear. "The first ever....CORNUCOPIA OF DUPE!" Pinkie pulled out her Party Cannon, and fired numerous amounts of confetti. "YAAAAAAY!!!!!"
"You'd better eat it ALL, too...." Marcus said. "That thing is a piece of CRAP to carry, even with HELP!"
"That's cuz you're a wimp..." Punk snickered. Marcus scowled.
And so, the CMC's and CM Punk ate their little hearts out. In a matter of time, every nook and cranny of this monstrosity of sugar was devoured. All 4 of these triumphant heroes had vanquished the evil beast, but they were showing the wounds of war...The all lay on the ground, burping excessively.
"How long did that take, Pinkie?" Sweetie Belle asked.
"42 Minutes!" Pinkie said excitedly, Marcus just shook his head in shock.
"I....Can't fell my...." Scootaloo burped. "....STOMACH...."
"If they puke, YOU'RE cleaning it up." Marcus said to Pinkie.
"Nuh uh, Marky." Pinkie disagreed. "I made that ENTIRE thing. You need to help your friends once in a While."
Marcus groaned, he REALLY hoped Ponies could hold their fats. "....Fine...." He finally said.
"You're the best Assistant EVER, Marky!" Pinkie said, hugging Marcus once again.
"My hoof is reaching for your tail..." Marcus said, Pinkie yelped in surprise.
"Oh ho ho..." Pinkie said, laughing. "You kidder!"
"I wasn't kidding..." Marcus said with a glare. Pinkie just smiled terrifiedly.
A few moments later, Freddie and his kids walked into Sugarcube Corner. They stared in awe at the carnage.
"....COOOOLLLLLLL!!!!!!" Damian and Tate said at the same Time.
"What happened, man?" Freddie asked to Punk in concern.
"Too.....Much.....Sugar.....Cardiac....ARREST!" Punk then grabbed Freddie's shirt, and whispered with a yell, "HEEELLPP...MEEEEEE!"
"They're fine!" Pinkie said reassuringly. "They just became the first Ponies, AND Human, to ever eat the biggest Item on Sugarcube Corner's menu...." She then pointed her hooves at Marcus. "Take it away, Marky!"
"Oh god....NO!" Marcus yelled, not wanting to cooperate.
"PLLLLEEAASSSEEE?" Pinkie said, bringing out her most dangerous Weapon....THE PINKIE EYES.
"Oh for the love of...." Marcus sighed. "FINE!" He then began to sing in an unenthusiastic voice
The Cornucopia of Dupe....
It's so delicious, it's so cute,
It'll make your belly rumble at sight,
And will make your taste buds filled with delight....
"YAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!!!" Pinkie applauded. "GO MARKY, GO MARKY! WHOOOO!" Marky just groaned.
"That was......GAY." Freddie said, snickering.
"Screw you!" Marcus yelled. "I think it's catchy...."
"We want a Cornucopia of Dupe, dad!" Tate yelled. "WE WANT IT, WE WANT IT,, WE WANT IT!"
"NO!" The CMC's and Punk yelled.
"Don't do it...." Apple Bloom groaned.
"It's BAAAADDD....." Punk said. "OOOOHHH so bad...."
"Does it not taste good?" Freddie asked.
"Oh, it's DELICIOUS!" Sweetie Belle said. "But, it makes your tummy hurt..."
"The pain will be Worth it!" Damian said. "PLEASE, dad?"
"It's 4 feet tall, Freddie." Marcus pointed out.
"WHAT THE?! HOW THE?!" Freddie said, not knowing what to say.
Pinkie shrugged. "Some people like to eat a WHOLE BUNCH!" She smiled.
"I don't know..." Freddie said.
"PLEASE, dad?" The boys said, giving their Dad Puppy eyes.
"Ponies are cuter when they do that...." Freddie said, crossing his arms and looking away, unimpressed. So then Pinkie Pie jumped in with her Pinkie Eyes.
"Son of a...." Freddie said, sighing.
38 Minutes later......
Oops, they did it again....
While The CMC's and Punk were starting to get the feeling in their tummies back, 4 new gladiators had slain the dreaded Dupe. Freddie, Kit, Tate and Damian were victorious, but the Dupe had left it's Mark.
"What'd we tell ya?" Punk said.
"We should've listened to you, dad..." Damian said.
"Nuh uh!" Tate said, belching. "THE RISK IS WORTH THE REWARD!"
"Oh, you poor fools..." Marcus said, laughing.
