Ubercorn's POV:

Is Bailey nuts? She assigned me to make a cake for Xuli's party because she thinks I can do a good job at it...Whatever, no time to complain. Gotta get started on that cake!

I took out all the ingredients from the fridge: Flour, sugar, butter, eggs, icing sugar, vegetable oil, water, baking soda, and chocolate (Considering that's Xuli's favorite) and one by one, put them all in a big bowl. I gave them a stir, which took ages and my hooves began to hurt, so I decided to take a break. I sat down on a nearby chair and rested my hooves. I was so exhausted I didn't notice myself falling asleep.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!!!!!!!!!!!!

I awoke with a start. Lily stood on the kitchen entrance with Audrey and Tim, the three were laughing as Lily had sounded the airhorn because she found me asleep.

"Seriously, Ubercorn? Bailey asked you to stop slacking off! And there you are, asleep on the chair and you didn't even put the cake in the oven!" Said Lily.

I looked at the cake mixture on the table; Lily was right. The mixture was still on the table, uncooked. I got out of the chair quickly, grabbed the chair and put it in the oven.

Lily took a look at the ingredients.

"Um...Ubercorn, don't you think you added a little too much baking soda?" Said Audrey, looking as well.

"Yeah, you clearly added too much..." Said Tim, joining in.

"Nonsense, you three. I added just the right amount of baking soda! It's bound to be fine!" I scoffed.

"Suit yourself," Said Lily, "But mark my words, don't come running to us or anyone else if the cake explodes in the oven..."

She and her friends walked away.

"Silly kids..." I mumbled.

*A few minutes later...*

Some really weird noise was coming from the oven.

I looked away from my magazine and decided to investigate. The cake was shaking really hard. Were the kids right? Did I add too much baking soda?"

No way.

I opened the oven to take a closer look, but I was soon to realize that was a big mistake.

The entire thing went splashing in a big explosion right on my face...

...oops.

(A/N: Here's another drawing! The cake had burst due to too much baking soda

(A/N: Here's another drawing! The cake had burst due to too much baking soda. The entire thing just exploded right onto his face! And Bailey's in the background, holding her G.O. Sheild and bracing for impact, cause she needs it!!! Hope you like it!)

Bailey revealed herself behind her messed up G.O. Sheild. She looked at me with a blank stare in her eyes, but then she burst into peels of laughter.

"What?" I said, between mouthfuls of cake mixture.

"I'm sorry, you just look too funny!!" She laughed.

*An hour later*

Bailey had helped me clean up the mess and left me to start all over again, only this time she monitored the baking soda.

The cake looked amazing. It was shaped like a Vroomster with glittery frosting.

"Impressing..." Said Bailey, impressed.

I smiled proudly.

"...but you could've done it much sooner if you listened to the kids." She added, between fits of giggles.

I remembered the embarrassment.

Oops.
