Author's Note: I am sorry if this chapter is not my best. My mind kind of moved sporadically when I wrote this one.
[In the Darkness]
"So Infinite, how successful was your mission?" asked a deep voice.
"They performed as you expected," Infinite answered quickly.
"So how was the transformation?" the voice asked its curious evident.
"Unforunately my liege that is the one thing we were unable to make occur," Infinite said bowing his head. "Please forgive me, my lord."
"No matter I had thought such a thing may happen. I have a contingency plan," The voice replied eerily calmly.
A flash of surprise crossed Infinite's face. "If I may my lord I would like to inquire of this plan."
Even though he was unable to see his master Infinite could have sworn he saw the voice gain a cheshire cat grin."Just tell Eggman he will soon claim his reward."
"I will do so master," Infinite answered exited the dark room hating the fact he would again face that arrogant fool.
[Back in Ponyville.]
"Done?! What do you mean I'm done?!" I asked surprised.
"As I have said I've taught you all that I can with the existing circumstances," my master answered flatly.
"Circumstances? But I have not learned all the basics of each discipline yet let alone the more advanced stuff. How can I be done already?!" I said my confusion evident in my words.
"Well it doesn't have to be," my master said. I wonder what he is planning.
"Okay. What will I have to do?" I asked full of hope and suspicion.
"Well..." my master began.
[Minutes later in the center of Ponyville.]
"Really?" Adven said raising a brow as confused of the condition as I was.
"I know," I answered back.
"Sounds kind of gay to me bro. I mean some old guy wants you to move into his basement. Does he keep popsicles down there too?" Shadic joked putting a hoof on my chest.
I shrugged his comment off and began to speak again,"Besides this probably works better anyway. I mean no offense to Shadow Breeze but he loves letting all kinds of animals in the house. Don't get me started on the plants he brought in either. I have allergies with certain plants. I used to back on Earth I guess it stayed with me even when I came here." [Whew. That was a lot to type. just give me a sec...Ok I am fine. Back to typing!]
Shadic and Adven shared a quick look of confusion between themselves and faced me. "I don't know man I wouldn't see the problem with living with a rabbit or even squirrel for that matter," Adven said waving his hoof to emphasis his point.
I shook a little remembering what had finalized my decision. "It was not the rabbits or squirrels. It was the insects. While I was sleeping I think a few climbed into my mouth," I said feeling as if I would throw up by the mere thought of the experience.
"So what? I have eaten plenty of flys while flying before," Shadic said proudly. Man I hope he doesn't kiss Snowy with that mouth.
"Ewwwwwwwww!" Adven and I replied disgusted by Shadic's pride.
After a few seconds I decided to break the silence. "I figured Shadow would prefer the tree house anyway. Knowing how he loves those trees and animals of his seems like the perfect kind of home for him."
"Seems legit," Adven said happily.
"Whatever," Shadic added rolling his eyes.
We walked around aimlessly for a bit. Shadic said he wanted to get back at somepony for something. [I wasn't really listening. What? Do you listen to ever single word your friends say?!...Good for you.]
"I feel bad for you bro," Adven said as we began walking to the Corner. [He said Pinkie needed help with baking something.]
"What do you mean?" I asked completely confuzzled.
"I mean you are in for a world of hurt your first week living there," he answered with a knowing smirk.
"What?!" I said terrified until realization hit me. "You weren't always good with a sword, were you?" I asked accusingly.
"Well I had a gift for it," Adven replied with a smile. "But," his smile became a serious expression," I was still untrained. Anypony can have a gift but you need to hone in on it to make it go beyond what you think you can do with it."
"What does that have to do with anything? No offense but my cutie mark aint exactly a sword. It is a whole music note with a heart in it," I answered back a little annoyed at Adven's lecture. [I can not stand being talked to. You know what I mean? ...It is not the same thing! Well maybe a little but I am typing at you. That is completely different!]
Adven facehoofed. "I mean that I thought training was hard when I would go to my master every day. Then I cam to the same crossroads you are on now. I had to decide if I really wanted to be the best I could be or not. Needless to say I stayed with it. The point is that this change will not come easy and will most likely hurt you a great deal."
"Oh well then...fuck," I said dreading the experience.
We continued the walk to the Corner.
"Listen bro even though it was hard work I can't argue with the results," Adven said as he began to open the door.
"Well I don't know," I said rethinking my decision already.
I suddenly heard a voice say,"Doooooo it, dooooooooo it, Why aren't you doing it already?!"
I looked behind me and sure enough was Pinkie Pie staring at me beaming with a smile.
"Hi Pinkie, bye Pinkie,"I said as I began walking away.
"Where are you going?" I heard Adven yell after me.
"My new job! Got to get money to take care of my mare, you know!" I shouted back. After I said that I threw my head back and began laughing like a mad man. [You should try it. Trust me it is sooooo much more fun than normal laughing.]
