Life is Sweet
Drew gave the kitchen a once over. There were footprints in the white powder that coated everything, even the ceiling, there was a mass of brown that looked like it belonged in a horror film as it growled and moved. To make matter's funnier, Blaziken was taking cupcakes out of the oven, tasting then and deciding that weren't done then torching them, plus something that could possible Skitty and Squirtle spinning around on the floor coated in butter and bouncing off of random objects, not unlike a very odd version of pinball.
He bit his lip as hard he dared, then managed to gasp out, "What's going on here? "
May tried to get up, slipped again, and brought both of them to the floor. "I was going to make cupcakes to cheer you up, you see, then butter got on the floor, and we were out of eggs, and I don't know what happened after that. It's all a blur. " Blaziken triumphantly held up a can of icing, and slopping some on a cupcake, then tasting it and deeming it tasty.
She made a face as Skitty and Squirtle ramped up the backs of her legs, clunking into her head as Drew removed Skitty from the now puking Pokemon.
"Ow.. and EEEWWWW! " May's face scrunched up even more as Squirtle composed itself and Water Gun'd her back to clean it off.
"Too bad there's no such thing as a Soap Bubble attack, " Drew stated calmly as Blaziken slipped and caught himself by grabbing onto the counter, leaving deep claw marks.
"... can you help me clean up? Nurse Lily is going to kill me when she sees this. And, would you like a cupcake? "
Drew hid a shudder at the thought of eating one of the mysterious lumps of charcoal on the table, dipped in icing with a Wynaut footprint on each one. The little Pokemon had freed himself from the batter and was enthusiastically helping Blaziken, occasionally licking itself and purring with happiness at the taste.
Forget your chocolate allergy, forget the fact that one bite could kill you, don't even think about how they will taste, she's your friend and it'll break her heart if you don't eat one.
He picked up one of the sticky white lumps from the counter top, and bit into it, closing his eyes as he resisted the urge to gag.
:Oh, no, that wasn't cocoa powder I put in there. It was mulch! " May's worried comment cut through Drew's thoughts like a knife, but his face was calm as he picked something that he prayed was not burned worm from between his teeth.
"Well, they cheered me up all right... Uggh... " He shuddered as his mind realized what he had just eaten. "I'll be right back. I gotta go.. get cleaning supplies! " He ran, slipped, recovered, and made it out the door with his hand clamped over his mouth.
"Blazi ken blaze. " The fire Pokemon looked down his beak at Drew's retreating figure. Neat freak.
Once Drew was finished tossing his cookies.. er, mulch cupcakes, he brought back a bucket of soapy water and a few sponges. Skitty grabbed onto a soapy sponge, lay on it, and scooted around on the floor, still on her blissful sugar high.
May stifled a giggle. "I'm glad Skitty's still having fun. "
Wynaut followed Skitty's example and they began a game of Sponge Tag, much to the human's amusement.
Suddenly, Blaziken seized May's sponge and threw it at Drew, catching him in the head with a bubbly splat. The coordinator froze for a second, then whirled around to face her, his face the picture of comic fury.
"Hey, I didn't- eee! " Drew's sponge hit her in the mouth. He wiped away a tear of laughter and looked up just in time to be pile driven into the floor with May wielding a sponge and covered in bubbles.
Nurse Lily opened the door to the kitchen to behold massive amounts of bubbles, a brown mass in a huge bowl, and frosted charcoal, not to mention May pinning Drew to the floor, him mock pleading for mercy as she fell off of him in laughter. Wynaut and Skitty were having races as they scooted around on sponges, Squirtle still looking green, and Blaziken downing yet another iced burned mulch cupcake.
She shut the door again, brushed the hair out of her face, and muttered aloud, "Walk away, Lily.. just walk away... "
Chancey appeared in front of her, and quickly offered her...
A cupcake.
