     Three days after sending Rainbow Dash to the hospital, Jet was confronted by two guards of the royal princess, Celestia. They told him that she wanted to give him a gift as a reward for something they weren't told about and that he knew exactly what she meant.
"In this box you will find that reward, however she said it is very heavy and if you need assistance we are right here." A guard said in his batman voice.
"We'll leave as some as you unpack this treasure." The other spoke. They were both males.
"Fine." Jet replied.
He opened the cardboard box by taking a knife from the kitchen and cut the tape. Inside was a cauldron which had a label of the sun. It was a round cauldron made up of black stones, probably obsidian of basalt.
"Why would she send you that?" The first guard asked.
"I won it fairly. The friendly competition was a test of her knowledge against mine." They gave a look of surprise. "Luna tested us and it turns out I'm smarter. If I lost however she wanted me to sing a song."
"So you're smarter than the princess? That incredible. How old are you?" Jet wondered why they asked this question.
"Twenni won." Jet said even though he was younger than this. A lot younger in fact.
"Awesome. So, do you need help moving this?" He jestured to the crate.
"I got it." Jet walked into his room to find a Ordo shard. He walked out with it and pointed it at the cauldron. The shard split into millions of small pieces and encircled the item. He moved his hand up which pulled the cauldron out of the box. He had to open the double window to get it throught because it was to big to fit throught the door.
"K thanks bye." Jet shut the door and placed the cauldron down next to the bathroom area. His house recently got a make over. Instead of the walls being made of wood. It was made of concrete and painted over it with green fire resistant material. When the cauldron touched the ground, the effects of the shard vanished and he could no longer control it mentally.
He filled the cauldron with water from the bathroom sink, which was easy to do because he prepared for this. He then pulled the wand from his pocket and zapped it with 5 vis of each aspect. The wand was at a perfect 10,10,10,10,10,10 vis. Carrying a max of 20 for each type. Aer, Ignis, Aqua, Terra, Ordo, and Entropy (Perditio).
With this zap, the cauldron was transformed into a crucible,. The sun symbols were not longer there as the marks of thaumcraft replaced it.
The water filled to the top and Jet offed it. He opened the Thaumonicon and flipped throught some tabs and saw what he was looking for. He walked over to the scribbling table and tapped the item, it was called nitor. With the word, Research, pressed down. Invisible forced move the quill and the paper provided into a puzzle. There showed the symbol Lux on one side and Ignis on the other. They were hexagons on a sheet with one hexagon inbetween them. He used his wand and dragged an Aer aspect to the missing hexagon, after he did this he saw the parchment roll up saying completed. As sone as he touched it, it vaporized and he absorbed it unplanned. The page in the Thaumonicon was then filled with more words on the nitor, and a crafting recipe.
The recipe showed three aspects, Ignis, Lux and Potentia.
Hmmm. Where to get Potentia... I know, coco beans. They contain Potentia. Jet thought as he closed the book, grabbed some bits and headed out to look for Pinkie Pie.
She was the saleswoman at the nearby bakery. She made cookies, cakes, breads, donuts. Pretty much anything. She must how some coco beans. Right?
Jet arrived at Sugercube Corner. The place where Pinkie worked. He walked in to see a small line of customers. He went in the back of the line. In front of him was a female looking pony. She turned and looked at him.
"Hello human, my name is Lyra. What's your name?" Lyra asked. She was a cyan color, more green though. Is it racist by color coding ponies?
"Good morning." It was around noon. "My name is Jet. I come here to get cocoa beans from Pinkie. Is she your friend?" Jet noticed that Pinkie from the opposite side of the serving counter her ear twitched.
"She is friends with everypony. Is she your friend?"
"No. I don't want to be her friends. Also please don't tell Pinkie I said that."
Right after Jet said that. Pinkie came rushing down the line while another pony took her place. She looked at them with suprise.
"I'm not your friend?" She asked.
"Noooo." Jet said sarcastically. This confused Pinkie.
"So how do I become friends with you?" Pinkie tryed to hold back a deep but small hatred within herself.
"Get me a pet from Fluttershy after I buy some coco beans." Jet noticed that she brighten up.
"Alrighty." Pinkie ripped away into the storage room looking for the beans.
Jet pulled out an egg from his suit. He was carrying only one. Lyra backed away as he squeezed the egg which broke and made all the inside speed onto his hand.
As pinkie came back she placed the sack that was holding the beans. Jet handed her the cost and then offered a hug. She accepted.
Jet moved his egg-ed hand into her mane. She didn't know this was happening. Jet cleaned his hand with her mane as a tower and Lyra was holding back a laugh. When they finished the egg shells stayed in her mane as the yolk ran down and hit he head.
She squeaked. She started to push Jet away and pressed her hoof on her mane. As she did this, Jet tapped the stopwatch. He named the stopwatch, Fomotemp, for its slow down effect. He moved at sonic speeds as he lifted the beans, walked out the door and looked through the window. He tapped Fomotemp again to stop the effect. Pinkie then shook her whole body like a dog would when it gets wet. Everyone gets egg-ed.
Jet returned home with the beans and realized he didn't have the thaumometer to scan the beans. It was needed to harness the Potenta out of them in the crusible. Twilight had it last so he went to the castle.
He knocked on the door. Twilight opened it with embarrassment. "Hey." She said as she walked outside and closed the door.
"Sup. I need the thaumometer back for scanning these." He opened the bag for her to see the beans.
"Why?"
"I wanta know the aspect of beans, is all." 
Twilight looked at the ground then to him and sighed. 
Is she hiding something? Jet wondered.
"I have a confession to make, I sorta... Broke the meter." Twilight turned away in shame.
"Ok, but can I see it?"
"No, I sent it to Celestia to get it fixed. I thought she would be able to. I hope this doesn't downgrade your studies with me." Twilight looked at the ground again.
"It won't, the aspects scanned go directly to the person who scanned it's soul. They carry it anywhere. If you scan something in the close enough range of someone, they too get the aspects. Anyway, we need to go to the princess's headquarters and retrieve that thaumometer."
"Or you could just ask me." They both turned around. Celestia was right there looking at them. They both saw the thaumometer in her mouth. She was holding it like a disk.
"I'll just take that off your hands and present this never happened." Jet said as he reached for the meter. Celestia, however, placed a hoof holding him from getting any closer.
She placed the thaumometer down and levitated it. "I couldn't fix the crack Twilight. Whatever magic that this makes is incrediblely strong. How did you manage to break it?" She asked Twilight. Jet tapped Fomotemp. He moved and picked the meter from the air. It broke from the magic and he moved back to his original spot. It was true, the outer ring was cracked. He tapped Fomotemp again.
Celestia flinched as her horn just shut off. She then noticed the thaumometer in Jet's hands. "What? How?" She was confused as Twilight's jaw dropped. Not from the watch, but to defy Celestia.
"I just lifted it from where it was open time and space?"
"Put how could you move that fast?"
"The better question would be, why not." Jet smirked. Twilight used her magic to lift the thaumometer.
Jet tugged against the meter as well but she wasn't letting go. Jet applied more force to overpower her. She did the same with her magic. The light from her horn grew huge for the horn. Jet gave a lot more power, Twilight matched it. The fight was broken by Celestia who levitated the tool up. Jet let go of it.
"Aww." Jet said.
"That's now Celestia's Jet. It is not your anymore." Twilight defended Celestia.
"But I. Fine you can keep it." Jet left on the path to his house. He made a U turn which made him spy on Celestia and Twilight. He noticed that she was talking to Twilight while showing the thaumometer off.
Jet pressed Fomotemp. This made the mouth of Celestia stop. He walked over to her, snapped his fingers to make sure, then reached the meter. He pulled it and the magic around it disapated. He then walked away. He tapped Fomotemp again while still spying on her.
"...and as, where'd it go?" Both of them looked around for the missing thaumometer. Jet left to go to his house with it.
5 minutes later, Jet received a knock from the door. He opened it and saw Celestia and Twilight with an angry face.
"May I help you with nothing?" Jet asked.
"Yah, where did you put it?" Twilight asked. Celestia gave a dissapointing look to him.
"I asked for nothing and you said yes, then you asked for help. You failure." Jet said.
"Jet, than enough. Give back her thaumometer. It's hers and not yours. You should know better than not to steal."
"No." Jet crossed his arms then only half shrugged.
"I'll take it by force." Jet stepped behind a wall as Celestia ran in. Jet was smart, he tripped her with his foot. He then grabbed the grappling hook and whipped it around her and her horn. She was then tied to a bed post. Twilight was stunned by this action and Jet took advantage of this. He placed another coat of rope around her horn and body and tied her to the bed post the opposite side of Celestia.
"I trapped you." Jet taunted.
"Let go of us." Twilight shouted. Jet only took the paper from his desk and started to draw them.
Two hours later, he finished drawing and showed it to them. They both were confused. Jet then taped it to the wall and lifted Celestia, still in the ropes. She was heavy, but now heavy enough. He lifted her outside and then onto the train to Canterlot. 46 minutes tater, they got off with everyone staring. He turned the dial on Fomotemp to make his sense of time 5x Celestia's, so she wouldn't die of the movement through space.
Jet walked through the 5x slower crowd and walked to the castle gates.
"Hhhhhaaaaalllllttttt." There voices were distorted by being lower in tone, and slow.
Jet walked around them and kicked the door open, but not hard just enough to open it. He walked up the familiar looking stairs and located Luna. As he reached her, he turned Fomotemp off and coughed.
"Hello Jet, why is Celestia wrapped up in your hooves?" Luna approached Celestia and released her. She fell to the ground.
"Thanks Luna. Jet do you have an apology?"
"I'm sorry for you being mean to me."
"No, that's not it."
"I'm sorry for you stealing from me, and can I have some dinner? I'm starving."
"No."
"To dinner or the apology?"
"You can have some, it's inside the dining hall." Luna said. Celestia lifted up Jet with her magic. Jet could still move his arms but couldn't way any more.
"You are in big trouble." Jet and Celestia said at the same time.
Jet smiled because he was able to predict what Celestia would say. She levitated him to a dark room and flicked the switch. Candles burned with light.
"I like turtles." Jet said. "My name is jeff." Jet stopped talking after this.
"We need to have a talk it you want to live in our society Jet. I'll teach you the pecking order."
Two hours later of which Jet speed up to about 1 minute via Fomotemp. Celestia finished with, "and that's why I get first choice, and that thaumometer. By the way, where is it?"
"I was fixing it. For you. I thought you'd like to study it." Jet saw Celestia open the rooms door and left in disappointment. It was hopeless to her that Jet could be taught.
Jet had dinner with Luna. Celestia went to go take a nap or something. They enjoyed there dinners and Jet took off to see Twilight. When he got back he there was a trap taking place.
Twilight had broken free and dumped water on his face. From what he could tell, the water was from the cauldron.
She laughed and then the second part took place. She used some flour that Jet stored underneath his kitchen sink and dumped it on him, causing the water and flour to mix. It was sticking to Jet. He tapped his watch which had returned to normal speed when the first time he created it was. When he moved the flour didn't stick to his, he moved outside and tapped Fomotemp again. He grabbed 6 eggs from his stash behind the bush.
He walked in a threw each one at her causing egg shells and yolks to splatter all over her mane. She fell to the ground speechless.
"Gotcha." Jet said. He notice Twilight in deep thought.
"What wrong? Are you afraid about Celestia? She's fine, I brang her back to the castle with her sister looking after her. All I did was maybe break a few legs, no biggy."
Twilight started to cry everytime. Jet noticed she had a deep respect for Celestia. "Well... Cya." Jet pushed Twilight outside and closed the door.
He walked over to the crucible and heated up the water by making underneath it hot. When the water was finished and was boiling he threw some candles, which gave it 2 Lux. He threw in some Ignis shards, giving 2 Ignis. He threw some coco bean, which gave 2 Potentia. He threw the final ingredient, a lump of coal. After the coal touched the water, some nitor popped out. It landed on the ground. Jet picked it up and moved it outside.
Twilight was outside starring at the setting sun. Jets front door was in the light during sunsets. When the last bit of sun went down the horizon, she turned and faced him.
"Hey." She said.
"Hi. I just want to give you this." Jet grabbed her hoof and lifted it so that the flat surface pointed to the sky. He set the nitor on it. Twilight flinched but Jet's grip soothed her. She held the nitor and saw its everlasting light. "What is it?" She asked
"It's nitor. It burns everlasting giving off infinite light. I makes a good decoration, fuel, and crafting ingredient." Jet removed his grasp. Only to be hugged by Twilight.
They both looked at the nitor as they watched the Sparks and glows. That was the first ever Jet made.
