The spread at Luna's party was just as big as Twilight's, if not more so. Pinkie, Fluttershy and the Cakes had managed to make not only Moon Pie Cupcakes but chocolate chip cookies, turtles, apple turnovers, cotton candy, and a host of other sweets. Their friends stood in awe at the sight of it, Twilight exclaiming, "You guys did all of this by yourselves?"

"Well, kind of," Fluttershy answered. "The Cakes helped us with some of the harder recipes."

Pinkie exclaimed, "It was a super fun time! Hopefully you and I can do it again, Baking Master!" Fluttershy blushed and mumbled, "Oh, gee..."

"How's your head, Pinkie?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Still on my shoulders and feelin' fine!"

Dash laughed and said, "No, I mean your stitches!"

"Oh, they're fine too! They should be coming out in a few weeks, but other than that, I'm super duper!"

A regal voice piped in and said, "And we wouldn't want it any other way, Pinkie."

Princess Celestia and Luna approached the group, with the six of them bowing before them in respect. "I understand Fluttershy had some strong feelings afterwards."

"Oh yes, Princess," the yellow pegasus said. "I felt like it was my fault Pinkie got hurt, and I couldn't get it out of my mind."

"Believe me, child, I know how that feels. When Luna was possessed by the Nightmare, there was a long, long period of time where I lay awake at night, wondering how I could have let such a thing happen to my sister. But, like you, I had no way of knowing what would happen, but I knew that things would get better one day..." She put her hoof over Luna, drawing her into a sisterly embrace. "...and they have."

Luna lovingly nuzzled Celestia and smiled. "Pinkie Pie, I just wanted to thank you again for getting this together on such short notice. We're all having a wonderful time."

"Anytime is party time, Luna! It's a pleasure! Oh, and wait till you see the cake! It's gonna blow your mind!"

Almost on cue, two stagehooves pushed out a gigantic cake decorated with dark purple and blue frosting, tiny moons embedded in the outer perimiters of the six layers. Two small buttercream figures of Luna and Celestia stood atop the cake, which elicited a round of oohs and aahs from the crowd.

Luna exclaimed, "Wow! That's an impressive cake! Do you mind if I have a piece?"

"Of course not! It's your party, so go right ahead!"

Luna took the cake trowel and began to cut some pieces for her and Celestia. Pinkie watched and smiled, but her smile turned to a frown as she felt her tail begin to twitch. Her friends noticed and Rarity asked, "What's your Pinkie sense telling you this time?"

"I don't know...something about a...cake shower."

"Cake shower?" Applejack exclaimed. "What on Equestria is a 'cake-'"

As Applejack asked her question, Luna had put two pieces of cake onto a set of plates and was preparing to walk back to Celestia. She had turned around when her rear hooves got tangled up in the carpeting and she lost her balance. Acting on instinct, she reached out for the nearest solid object...which turned out to be the cake cart. Her outstretched hooves hit the tray at full force, launching the cake into the air. Rarity screamed and stepped off to the side as the cake rained down on Celestia and her friends. Luna gasped in fright and rushed over to the chocolatey carnage, yelling, "Are you alright? Is everypony alright?"

The only response she got was a round of laughter from the cake's victims, but it was friendly laughter. Twilight wiped the frosting from her eyes and said, "We're fine, Luna! It was an accident!"

"A delicious accident, at that!" Applejack added.

"Come on! Join the fun!" Pinkie scooped up a wad of cake and frosting and flung it at Luna, the wad exploding in her face. She screamed in pain and flung herself to the ground, rolling around and wailing uncontrollably.

Pinkie gasped in horror and ran to her side, saying, "Oh no! Luna, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you!" Luna stopped crying as soon as she heard Pinkie's voice, looking up from her hooves with an expression of utter sadness and pain. Pinkie's heart sank at the sight...until Luna flashed a devious grin.

"GOTCHA!"

She smashed a wad of cake into Pinkie's face and joined in the mini foodfight as her sister and friends all laughed and played in the end results of the cake shower. The rest of the crowd laughed along with them and cheered them on, with DJ P0N-3 and Octavia playing a remix of "March Of The Nobles" together to accompany the fight. Pinkie's sense had been proven right once again...but this time, the only thing getting hurt was everypony's ribs from their laughter.

Dear Princess Celestia:

Accidents can and do happen, and they happen every day. Some can be more severe than others, something that my friend Fluttershy found out the hard way. But with Pinkie Pie's help, she was able to put her feelings of sadness and regret behind her. Sometimes, when we're feeling down, all we need is the comfort and reassurance of our friends to lift us up and let us know that everything's going to be okay.

Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle.

"Hey Rarity!" Spike exclaimed. "Don't you wanna join in?"

"I don't know, Spike...I just had my mane done, and I don't want it to get messed up."

"Oh, that's okay. I'll just make sure to avoid it!" Spike mashed a piece of cake into Rarity's face, covering it in frosting and chocolate. Rarity gasped in fright and wiped it off as Spike laughed at his deception. Oh, so this is a joke? Well, two can play at this game, she thought. She walked towards the edge of the foodfight and scooped up a big chunk of cake that nopony had noticed, calling out Spike's name.

"Come here, Spike! I have a present for you!"

"Really?" he exclaimed as he dashed to her side. "What is it?"

Rarity used her magic to lift the cake over Spike's head and dropped it on him without warning, smiling as she said, "There! Now we're even." As the cake fell all around him, he scooped up a chunk of it and took a bite, exclaiming, "Mmm! This cake is delicious! You want some?"

"No thanks, Spike. I'm trying to watch my figure."

"Suit yourself! You don't know what you're missing!" He dabbed a tiny bit of frosting onto Rarity's nose as he continued to munch on the cake, while she turned to look at her friends having fun in the mess they'd made. She looked at Spike, at her hair, at the good time everypony was having, and exclaimed, "Oh, the heck with it! HERE COMES RARITY!" She dashed into the fray and joined in the fun, laughing and carrying on as Spike made his way to the front of the crowd.

"Rolling around in cake and frosting," he said to himself. "That is so degrading." He scooped up another handful of cake and began to munch on it as he cheered his friends on, laughing along with them and loving every minute of it.
