Everything had been restored to Equestria, the magic of the unicorns, the flight of the pegasi, and the trust of the earth ponies. Thanks to Sunny Starscout, who had became an alicorn as a result of all of this, but that was only temporary because once everything was back to normal, she had returned to her old pony self. But she didn't really care about that, all that mattered to her was that friendship and magic was back, once she had convinced every species of pony that they had nothing to fear. On the other hand, Sprout Cloverleaf had been sentenced to do 100 hours of community service and a lengthy probation as punishment for his tyrannical power grab of everypony, but now that everything was back to normal, things were going to turn out for the best. Even as the new adventures were just starting, for one little guy that is, and he wanted to see the one who saved them.
In Bridlewood, where Izzy Moonbow resided, lived this little one. Not only did he reside there, but he was also Izzy's neighbor, thus the two had a strong friendship, despite the fact that he was a colt and she was a grown one. This colt's name was Lasso Lashes, his parents were Lone Star Jr. and Granny Smith III, Lasso was brown and had a black mane tail. He showed a cutie mark of a cowboy hat with a lasso whipping lashes, thus his name, and he wore a red bandana around his neck. A third bonus was that he spoke with a very thick strong Texas like accent, because Nathan Cadenza and Apple Bloom from the ancient era, were his great grandparents. Thus, Apple Tart and Lone Star Sr. were his grandparents, also, he was rather adventurous and wanted to meet the one who restored their magic.
But that was about to change for him, because today, he was going to get a special greeting. Better yet, the new greeting would be in Maretime Bay where Sunny Starscout lived, and it began as a typical morning. Lasso was in his bedroom, levitating a cup of juice and reading a comic book, when the muffled sound of knocking at his house's front door interrupted him.
"Ah'll get it." said his dad from the living room, at first Lasso thought it was probably just the mail mare giving them their mail, or a door-to-door entrepreneur, looking to sell fresh new magic spells. But who it was was really none other than.......
"Lasso, Izzy is here to see you!"
Lasso quickly gasped with excitement, putting down his juice and book, he jumped off his bed and quickly flung open his bedroom door. And indeed, there at their front door was Izzy, giving a friendly smile to them.
"IZZY!!!!!!!!! IZZY!!!!!!!!" Lasso screamed with pure joy, running up to her as quickly as possible. He wasted no time once he ran close enough, then jumping onto her, wrapping his forehooves around her neck. His back hooves curled up on her sides. Izzy wrapped her right forehoof around him and held him in a tight bonding hug as she kissed him on his head and his cheek.
"And how's my favorite little unicorn doing today?" she asked as she kept him in her hoof.
"Ah'm doin' awesome!" Lasso said with glee and excitement, "But why are you here?"
"Well, I came by to see if you wanted to come with me to Maretime Bay. I've made some new friends lately, but there is one pony in that group that I think you might love to meet."
"Who is it?"
"You'll see, if you wanna come."
Lasso then turned to his father, Lone Star Jr.
"Dad, can Ah' go with Izzy please?"
Junior ruffled his mane and gave an understanding facial expression.
"Of course ya' can go son, just stay with Izzy and do what she says, understand?"
"Thanks pops!" Lasso said as he released himself from Izzy, giving him a quick hug, then running right back into the same position with Izzy again.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" she said, she put Lasso back down then squatted on her back legs.
"Here, hop on, you're riding on me there."
"Sure thing, Ah'd love to." Lasso said as he hopped onto Izzy's back.
"Have a good day you two, be careful." said Lone Star Jr., waving his hoof at them.
"We sure will Junior, see you later." Izzy said, walking out the door with her little cargo on her back. As soon as they were out, Junior then closed the door behind them. Now here they were, walking through the crystal infested forests of Bridlewood. Other unicorns were going about their business, other colts and fillies were running around laughing and giggling, while the adult unicorns were busy doing job positions they did. And now it had been all done much better, since their magic had been restored.
"Ah'd tell ya, this is gonna be awesome."
"You bet!"
"So, who are the ponies yer' wantin' me to meet?" asked Lasso as they strolled out of their forest home and into the fields.
"Well, I met two earth ponies and two pegasus during our adventure, I think you're gonna enjoy their friendly establishment."
"Earth ponies and pegasuses?" asked Lasso.
"Of course, I have told them about you."
"Wow, Ah' didn't know that."
"Yes, I believe this is will be a good moment for both of us."
Lasso could not believe that his sister-like friend had managed to not only make new friends that easily, but now he was going to be a newcomer for the group.
"So what's Maretime Bay like?" he asked.
"It's much bigger than Bridlewood, that's for sure."
"Are ya' sayin' twice the size?!"
"Well duh silly, it's so big it has some of the best entertainment I've seen."
Lasso was now even more excited, because he wanted to experience some real entertainment. Because the closest thing he had for that, up until now, was him playing country music to the other unicorn colts and fillies that lived in Bridlewood. After a couple of hours of walking and playing 20 questions with Izzy, a sign soon came into their view.
"Welcome to Maretime Bay." Lasso read aloud, he looked on the horizon and sure enough, there was the massive city of Maretime Bay itself. It was massive, so massive in fact, that it stretched all the way to the top of the hill. At the top of the hill was the big tech business known as Canterlogic Corp.
"Hey Izzy, is that Canterlogic?" Lasso asked, pointing his hoof at the big building atop the hill.
"Yup, that place was developing technology to fight off species like us, just so the earth ponies could remain in fear and disbelief."
Izzy then trotted along, while still towing Lasso on her back.
"What do they do now?"
"I'm not sure, you can talk to my new friends about that when we get to the drink shop."
