As he was trotting along he saw some business men with a weird machine. He took closer look and saw it was his father trying to sell a new machine he was working on called a "Computer" he was spending much time on this machine and finnaly was in the last few stages of development. When Thunderbird saw his dad he galloped towards him cheerfully with his blond mane flowing slightly behind him. When his dad caught glimpse of him he said "Well hello son fancy meeting you here... Oh wait this your route to go home right! I almost forgot." You see Thunderbird's father was a great inventor but he forgets a lot of things. "HI DAD!" Thunderbird said gleefully. "Did you finally finish the compuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuter thingy?" "OH YEAH I DID SON! When I am done here it will be mass produced and we will be rich also I will get a computer just for you. Here have a loli while I finish up with Filthy Rich." The stallion then used his magic to try to levitate something of his flank. "What? It was in my pants... Oh yeah ponies do not wear pants... well just sit tight and I will walk you home the rest of the way soon and get you a loli." "Okay Mr Gayben back to my proposal lets say I get 10 percent of profit if I mass produce these." Offered Mr Rich. "DEAL! Now how long until they are on the shelves and also how much will they be?" Gayben, Thunderbird's father replyed and then asked. "They shall hit the shelves by the end of the month, and they will be about 100-400 bits each. Also the Gigantic Earth Pony Keyboard will be 25 bits and the Pegasus/Unicorn keyboard shall be 15 bits." Filthy replied. "Okay filthy looks like we are now business partners! Hoof shake?" Gayben said with joy as they shook each others' hoof. They share goodbyes and filthy took the computer and then Gayben turned to Thunderbird and said. "Come along son lets go home now." Then after he said that they started their trot home. The month went by and Thunderbird was learning a lot about computers. Also he made a few friends at school.
