Chapter 4: Wonders Beyond
"See you later Mom!" JetStream waved out to the carriage heading to the front of the city.
"Bye Jetty! I'll see you whenever you get there!" she replied, JetStream nodded. And soon after that she could not be seen, JetStream on the other hoof wondered into the house aimlessly.
"Oh, what do I do now?" he asked himself. Then an idea hit him, "I'll go practice the cloud walker spell." he gained a smile. He had many thoughts on this while getting a cloud from his dad, Myriad accepted this. 'Why Canterlot? I thought this was way shorter than a half-cross country.' After that he walked outside to the open backyard, was he ever lucky that it was at least one and a half times bigger than any other around here. He got the cloud in position, and then continued to think, 'Will there be ponies I'll meet out there, friends and/or rivals? We're supposed to meet up tonight for tomorrow, so probably.' JetStream looked at his surroundings, it's spring, the most colorful season of the year. And it sure was colorful, white, blue, green, and different colored flowers naturally, and in the window pots of the neighboring houses. It was 10am they're supposed to be there at 7pm. But anyway JetStream went ahead and turn to face the cloud he'll soon stand upon. And soon after attempt after attempt, four hours passed, he also kept things in place, he didn't want to slow down. JetStream studied this spell, mentally studied the pattern that his Mother used for using that spell. He could feel it building, "I-I feel it..!" JetStream said to himself, "That surge I'm feeling is intense." JetStream looked all over himself, "Where is that co-..?!" It was all surging where the ponies horn is supposed to be. "Oh my-!" he was cut off and it combusted before his eyes, and it sent JetStream sliding on the dew covered grass, until he ever so softly hit the house, but it was just enough to send Myriad outside, "Phew!" JetStream wiped his forehead, "That was close." Soon after, Myriad popped from behind the back door.
"What was that?" Myriad was constantly looking around, but it answered that itself, the grass was tinted in the cause of JetStream's sliding. "Is anything gone wrong... 'cause it looks like it..." JetStream quickly got back up, with green tinted fur once again.
"Yes... I mean no, actually it. was. amazing!" he cheered, then suddenly collapsed, "I'm really tired though..." Myriad walked up to JetStream and picked him up, "Oh, come on Dad!" Myriad laughed.
"Well you and I both know that your Mom's gone, so that obviously means I need to take care of you..." JetStream sighed in defeat. As soon as they got in, Myriad walked over to the couch and dropped JetStream there. He was about to walk somewhere else when a question finally lit up, "JetStream."
"...Hmm, yeah?" he perked his head up.
"What were you doing with one of the clouds anyway?" JetStream grew a little hot.
"Oh, umm, I was using it to do a spell that Mom always did." he answered cheerfully.
"Where is the cloud now though?" He rose an eyebrow.
"It's probably gone by now." There was a long pause.
"...Alright..." Myriad went back to what he was working on, 'Why did he think he could use magic if he isn't a Unicorn?' he laughed slightly to himself, 'That colt's full of questions...'
