Drabble 1B: Baby Cakes Part 1
The Mane 6 and Harry where outside the nursery of the hospital where newborn foals where kept.
"Lemme see." Harry said as he bounced up to view the room. "Can't see!" He bounced again.
Twilight levitated him onto Applejack's back and he grinned as he saw his daddy next to a crib.
"I can't believe the new baby is here!" Rarity said excitedly.
"Carrot and Cup Cake must be so proud!"
"Meet our new son." Carrot Cake said as he pulled down a blanket. "Pound Cake."
Baby Pound Cake yawned cutely and turned over to snooze.
"Yay!" Harry said. "I got my little brother!" He did a little happy dance on Applejack's back.
Then Carrot did something unexpected. He moved over to the next cradle. "And our daughter. Pumpkin cake."
"I get a little brother AND a little sister?" Harry asked in surprise.
"Two new babies for me to play with?" Pinkie Pie gasped in shock.
"This is the best day EVER!" Both declared at the same time in different ways.
"Aww yeah." Rainbow Dash said eagerly. "Just look at those wings! Once he get's going he'll be all over the place." She zoomed about in the air.
"And be careful around Pumpkin Cake." Twilight added.
"Baby unicorns get sudden madical surges." Rarity elaborated.
"What am I, Chopped Dragon Liver?" Harry demanded from Applejack's back. "Mommy and Daddy know about taking care of baby unicorns."
"I remember it like it was yesterday." Carrot Cake said fondly.
"Harry no!" Cup Cake said in panic as the baby unicorn had levitated a sack of flour over his head and was making it dance. "Put the flour down before-!" POOF! The flour bag opened all over him and the now white unicorn started bawling.
Harry, seeking comfort, lifted Carrot Cake into the air.
"And put Daddy down too!" Cup Cake said sternly. The mare sat right on her flank. She never realized being a mother would be this exhausting.
Harry was sniffling now and Carrot felt the magic holding him go away.
"I'll go run him a bath." Carrot Cake sighed, going over to the sink and putting in the rubber stopper as he poured soap and bubbles appeared.
"Nom nom nom nom nom." Harry started chewing on a rubber ducky.
"No. We do not put things in our mouths we can't properly digest." Carrot Cake said to Harry after popping the ducky out. Harry merely giggled and popped the ducky's head in his muzzle again.
"Nom nom nom." Harry cooed happily as his daddy washed the flour out of his coat and mane/tail. Harry had to take two baths as the flour turned the sink of water into a sink of goop...
"Now we know what to expect." Carrot Cake smiled at the six mares and his son.
"Where'd Pinkie Pie go?" Harry asked in confusion. The five other mares looked around for the pink mare too.
"Happy happy birthday. To you today." Came Pinkie's voice from inside the room and their question was answered. Pinkie had managed to sneak into the nursery and was between Pound and Pumpkin with a chocolate cake.
"Shh." Nurse Redheart hissed to Pinkie. "The babies need to sleep."
Pinkie nodded. Satisfied, Nurse Redheart left to take care of another baby.
"Quick." Pinkie whispered to the two. "Blow out your candles. Which is easy cause there are none! You are zero years old after a-"
"SHHHhhhhh." Nurse Redheart hissed again.
One Month Later...
Pinkie Pie had to go to Canterlot to help Twilight set up a birthday party for Shining Armor. So Harry was taking over her playtime with Pumpkin and Pound cake.
"Where's big brother?" Harry put his front legs over his eyes. "Here he is!"
The pegasi and unicorn squealed with delight and clapped.
"I'm going to be your big brother best friend forever." Harry said eagerly letting the two explore his face. "Just like big brother Shiny is with Twilight!"
Cup and Carrot smiled at the interaction. Then Carrot noticed something in the corner of the shop that should have left with Pinkie Pie and Twilight.
"Oh no!" Carrot Cake said in shock. "Sugarlump, we gotta get this cake to Canterlot!"
"We need to find a babysitter!" Cup Cake said in panic. "I can't believe we forgot to give them the cake! We didn't even ice it!:
"Come on sugarlump." Carrot said in panic going to all the mane six that where still in Ponyville."
"Hey." Harry said in an indignant tone. He put the baby's in their stroller and followed his parents aroud Ponyville.
Applejack turned them down. Saying that she had to help Big Macintosh buck apples before the season was over.
"Mommy, I'll do it!" Harry said eagerly before the two left in a flash. Harry growled and pushed the two after them.
Fluttershy had promised Angel Bunny a picnic.
"Daddy!" Harry managed to get out before the two left again. Smoke came from Harry's nostril's and ears. More running after his parents.
"Sorry, I've got tickets to the Wonderbolts show this afternoon." Rainbow Dash said.
They lerft to Rarity before Harry could say anything.
"Me? Babysit?" The Element of Generosity asked in shock. "Oh no no no." The two left and Rarity saw Harry gasping for breath for following them faster than he normally followed anypony. "I am flattered that you'd think of me though."
"Who can we get?" Cup Cake asked in panic. "The party is tomorrow! We need to get the cake to Canterlot, hide it and ice it all within twenty four hours!"
They heard gasping. Harry pushed Pound and Pumpkin inside. "I...can...babysit." The ten year old said.
The two adults blinked. "Son taking care of two babies is a lot of responsibility." Carrot Cake told the unicorn as he got him a glass of water.
"I can do it." Harry insisted after downing two glasses of water and Carrot pushed the cake out the door.
"Come on sugarlump we don't have a lot of time!" Carrot reminded the mare.
"All right, we're leaving you home alone for a night for the first time. Here's a list of responsibilities for the babies." She unrolled a large scroll from the door to the counter.
"Wow." Harry gasped in shock. "That is a LOT of respons-" He stopped, thinking about what could happen if he was successful. "Piece of Cake!" Harry gave his mother a salute and a grin. "Save me a piece of big brother's cake!" Harry called after the two ran out the door ("Hurry up sugarlump we'll ice it when we get there!")
Harry closed the door to Sugarcube Corner and turned the open sign to closed. "Okay. What should we do first?" Harry asked after turning around to his little brother and sister. The twins looked at each other.
"WAAAH!" The two started crying simultaneously.
"Oh no."
