A Recipe for Disaster
May chewed on a strand of hair as she read the list. "Ok, first of all, we need butter and sugar. A cup of each. "
Wynaut, still on the ceiling, scuttled over to the cabinets and pulled out a huge plastic glass and handed it to May.
"Well, it looks pretty big. But, I guess it will work. "
Blaziken opened to fridge door, and got out an armful of butter sticks, dropping them carelessly on the table. He then proceeded to unwrap all of them, and squash butter into the cup.
May bit her lip. "Well, I guess that will work. Now, I gotta find a bowl to mix everything in, oh, here we go. "
She placed a bowl the size of a small bathtub on the counter. Wynaut dropped from the ceiling like a rock, landing in said bowl. "Wy, wy! "
"Do you want to help me mix, Wynaut? " She handed the Pokemon an electric beater as Blaziken added the overflowing butter cup with a slopping noise.
Skitty grabbed the cup from him, and dipped it in the sugar bag, mewing with happiness when she tasted some. The kitten leaped full on into the bag, munching away as Blaziken dutifully added the sugar and Wynaut turned on the beaters, riding it like a pogo stick.
"Eggs... where are the eggs? " May poked her head inside the fridge. " I think we're out. "
Squirtle dashed off, slipping on the floor slightly, and came back with Chancey. The pink pokemon quickly offered May an egg the size of her head.
"That should work. " May's feet slid on the floor, and she glanced down to see a yellow substance all over the floor.
"How did butter get on the floor...? " She sighed, and cracked the egg into the bowl.
"Now, the dry ingredients. Flour, salt, baking powder... "
May mixed the dry ingredients in a separate bowl as Skitty emerged from the now empty sugar bag, eyes huge and mewing in glee. She leaped on Squirtle, who had slipped and was lying on his back, and together they shot across the floor like a top, spinning in the butter, Skitty mewing gleefully and Squirtle turning a definite shade of green.
They bumped into May's ankles as she tried to add the flour slowly, causing her to dump it in the bowl. There was a white explosion as the flour, salt and baking power hit the egg beaters. Wynaut switched off the mixer, and leaped back onto the ceiling to try some of the white stuff that was everywhere.
"This is not good... "
Blaziken was dipping the batter into cupcake liners in the pan, still quite calm as he placed them in the oven to bake. There was a squishing noise as Wynaut fell from the ceiling again into the batter and got stuck. He growled, opening and closing his mouth as he waved his little arms in a windmill fashion.
May brushed flour from her face, making a desperate grab for Skitty and Squirtle as the hurtled by again, slipping herself and being caught in someone's strong arms before she hit the floor.
She gasped, mortified as she realized who had caught her.
"Drew? "
