private Ponyville-A month later(Action/Adventure)

Max thought about that. He thought back to the first potion he made. What a tale that is. But the short version will do.

"Well, the first potion I made was in a desperate attempt to revive a loved on that fell pray to the Everfree. It instead killed me and left my body open to possession. After surviving that ordeal-more or less-I decided to buy an alchemy set and experiment. I made a few love potions, some gag potions, even made one that made me an alicorn for 12 seconds. That was fun. But after an incident with a love potion, and my...volatile reaction, I decided to get serious about it. I spent the last month cramming in books, movies, recipes, learning anything and everything about the field. Hay, if I didn't already have my cutiemark I am certain a beaker would be down there. Somewhere along the line I got addicted to the root and the potions made by it. Only today have I kicked it...for now. But after a month of intense learning, this may be the biggest potion discovery I have made. And I am not going to be rejected because I don't have a sheet of paper telling them that I know what I'm doing."

"Thank you kindly and though I do agree that he should admit himself to the hospital I can't let him do that. It would end up ruining his business selling pain relief potions to the hospital and it's his only way of making a living. Not only that, but I want to give him the chance to redeem himself. After all he's gone through a lot this past month. Anyways, I appreciate you not reporting this to Celestia. Now I got to get back home and check up on Max to make sure he's okay." Dogboots said before leaving the library. The stallion had another reason for going to Twilight though. He needed to test her to see if everypony in royalty was the same. "Perhaps...perhaps she's not like the others. Still, it's way too early to make any assumptions." He thought to himself about the new alicorn princess.

 

@,

On the way back, Dogboots had noticed a pegasi wobbling around the town. He soon bumped into the pegasi and nearly fell back. "Either you look like a stallion who can't hold his cider or you've hit your head." He said commenting on the gray pegasi's condition. "C'mon, on your hooves pal." Dogboots said getting the stallion back on his hooves. "I haven't seen you before so i'm guessing you're new here? Name's Dogboots and you are?" He asked the gray pegasi.

"The names...*pant*... Storm Cloud. And yes I did hit my head, really bucking hard. Oh boy, I'm really dizzy right now." Storm Cloud tried shaking his head to see if it would get rid of his dizziness, but it only made his head ache even more. "Do you happen... To know anypony, who's good with head injuries? Like a doctor? I'm new here so I haven't exactly gotten to know the whole town yet."

"I'm no doctor pal but I do have some medicine or we can get you to the hospital. Your choice." He said to the dazed pegasi. Dogboots could judge from the way he looked that the injury wasn't that serious. "Highly doubt its a concussion otherwise he'd be on the ground for a good amount of time."  Dogboots thought to himself observing Storm Cloud.

"You won't have to worry about that. As long as I sponsor you then you should be fine...I hope. Anyways, I have a good idea on how to write this presentation and it shouldn't take me too long. However, you're going to have to let me do the talking. These ponies mean serious business and will question any flaws found in this." Neutron said as he began writing the presentation. The young colt also knew a few things about Alchemy but not as much as Max knows.

"Hmmm... I always hated going to hospitals. So Dogboots, I'll trust you with your medicine." Storm Cloud smiled at Dogboots and almost fell to the ground until he composed himself again. "Wow this dizziness isn't getting any better. Nor is this headache." Storm Cloud rubbed his forehead to try and soothe the massive headache.

"Here..." Dogboots said pulling out a pill bottle from one of his vest pockets. "Should take care of that headache of yours. Anyways, what brings you here to ponyville?" He asked Storm Cloud after handing him a couple of painkillers. It wasn't long before he started thinking about Max and how he was handling his addiction so far.

"OK. If you don't mind, I am going to wing it back to Ponyville to let Do-a friend know what I am up to." Max remembered just in time that Neutron was still under the impression that Dogboots had already come and gone. If he knew that he was still in Ponyville, he might pay a visit. And he almost blew it. Almost.

Neutron raised an eyebrow after hearing Max cut himself off mid-sentence. "Oh well uhhh okay then. I'll see you later then?" He said to Max. The young colt was now curious who Max's friend was but not the point where he was really curious about it. Neutron soon shrugged it off though.

"Be back before you know it." Max went over to a nearby window, opened it up, and dove out of it in an action movie fashion, flying full force back to Ponyville. After another 40 minutes, he was there.

"Why *huff* must I *huff* INSIST *huff* on flying *huff* so FAST? *huff*" He stood at the train station, completely breathless. After recharging sufficiently, walked around Ponyville until he found...

"Dogboots!" Max called out. He trotted over to him, ignoring the grey Pegasus that he was talking to.

"Listen, I am going to be gone for a few days. Getting a hotel room in Canterlot because I may have discovered a cure for color blindness and I am having your brother help me present it to have it made into a proper research project...So I wont be around for a while." Max said that with no pause, only doing so at the end.

"Ok I well let you take care of your friend I hope your friend will be OK" Twilight said. "If you need help I will be there for you and your friend" Twilight smile. "But if the addiction continues I will help you I know a clinic who can help your firend with is addiction and they will keep your firend addiction a secret" Twilight tell him. "Dogboots thnik about OK" she said. After that Dogboots leave the library she wave good bye to him. Twilight look at the roots "How I going to do with them ummm... " she start to think and decided to send it to a friend who live in forever free forest. After that she gose back to her studies.

 

 

Fire Star

After Fire snadk out of City Hall. He walk to the corner of the building and set down. And start to think " Why did I start to ack weird when I saw the light blue mare pegisai why." He try to make some sense of this he never have happin before to Fire. But some thing about this light blue mare pegisai he like he think. "Maybe I have a crush on her No I never see her here before. It has to be something else" he get lost in his thoughts trying to figure out why he felt weird around her.

"By the way Max, next time don't interrupt a somepony when they are having a converstion. It's quite rude." He stated to Max before his roommate flew off.

"K thanks I will I wont goodbye." He sputtered before taking off again. He took off towards Canterlot, fast as he could.

"How much faster can I get witho-" And then he Sonic Rainboomed. Didn't have time to scream before he was off like a shot. He landed at Neutron's front door 5 minutes later. He landed a little hard, cracking the pavement. Looking behind him there was still a green contrail lingering.

"Hm. Guess I had more energy bundled up then I thought." He shrugged, and knocked on the door.

He asked Storm Cloud after handing him a couple of painkillers. It wasn't long before he started thinking about Max and how he was handling his addiction so far.

Storm Cloud took the painkillers and said, "Thank you. Anyways I came here because I heard there was some other pegasus here who was suppose to be crazy fast. I also came here because I heard the Wonderbolts are here pretty often so I decided to move here from Cloudsdale to catch their attention." Storm Cloud had a grin on his face.

Dogboots wasn't surprised when he heard Storm mention the Wonderbolts. They were pretty popular around Equestria however, the stallion didn't really care too much about them. To him they were just part of Celestia's Air Force, regardless of their entertainment value. "I see. So you're here to what? test your abilities against them? If i'm right, I think I remember seeing some poster earlier today about some race. Why don't you sign up for that?" He asked the gray pegasi.

"Actually, the race sounds perfect. So do. Sign up at city hall or what? This is the perfect opportunity to make a name for myself. Once I leave everypony in the dust they'll be begging me to be a Wonderbolt." Storm Cloud was imagining himself as a Wonderbolt. He chuckled and had a determined look on his face.

"Oh! why hello there Corkscrew! I can't really think of anything that's left for the race. Pinkie Pie and Spike volunteered to commentate on the race. The only thing I could think of would be to have somepony at the finish line and account for everypony that's crossed the finish line." Mayor Mare said trying to think of what else there was to take care of the race. She had been busy dealing with some of the new ponies that had arrived that she didn't have time to think about the upcoming race.

"I was hoping for something a little more involved." Corkscrew said while looking at the roster. "I may just decide to try the race than. I hadn't raced formally since the flight camp relay."

 

"Do you know if we are having special guests for the race?"

Once Dogboots and Storm Cloud arrived at City Hall Storm Cloud said, "Thanks for everything Dogboots. If you need anything just check the tree on the right of Sugarcube Corner. I usually sleep there since I kinda don't have a home yet." Storm Cloud smiled at Dogboots and stretched his wings.

"If you need a place to crash, you're more than welcome to stay at our place. Max is out in Canterlot right now for some kind of potion business and won't be back for a couple of days. So that leaves a spare room if you want to borrow it." The earth pony said to Storm Cloud. Dogboots knew what it was like living outside he'd been quite accustomed to it in the past 7 years of his travels.

"Wow, thanks! Uhhh quick question, where is your house?" Storm Cloud was quite shocked to hear that he'd be able to sleep in a bed for a few days. He realized that he also needed to ask Mayor Mare if his house in the clouds was ready.

"It's not that far from here i'll-" Was all Dogboots could get out before being interrupted by Mayor Mare

 

Mayor Mare

 

"Oh! Hello there Dogboots! Will you be joining the race as well?" The mayor asked completely ignoring Storm Cloud. She still didn't enjoy his behavior from earlier.

 

"Afraid not Mayor, I'm not much of a runner but my roommate Max and my shared associate, Storm Cloud will be joining. Though I'll attend to watch but that's about it. Don't think i'll make many bits at a racing event just selling Vegetables heh." The stallion replied scratching at his mane.

 

"I see then." The Mayor said before glancing at Storm Cloud. She could already tell that he had something on his mind and she had a good idea what it was. "Is there something your concerned about Mr.Cloud?" She asked the gray pegasi.

Neutron was at his desk preparing Max's presentation to the board when he heard a loud thud outside. The earth pony got up from his chair to investigate the source of the noise. As soon as he opened the door he was welcomed to a view of Max who had made a sizable crack on the front step of his porch. "Sigh. Should I even bother asking what happened?" He asked Max after crash landing near his doorstep.

"Not me personally. As I was explaining to the Mayor here, i'm not much of a runner but i'll be attending the event and watch. From the looks of it it will be quite a race." Dogboots replied to the orange pegasi. He still hadn't forgotten that he was part of the Royal Guard but it wasn't the time or the place for it.

"You COULD, but I doubt you would believe me. Let's just say I'm feeling...energetic. As for the porch, I wouldn't worry too much. Just a dent, easily fixed." Max's tone was one of energy. Energy rivaling Pinkie Pie's own hyper nature. He couldn't point to it exactly, maybe he was excited to be free from potion addiction (save for the headaches and occasional cold sweats) or maybe he was glad he had a chance for redemption, to possible cure major disease. Or perhaps it was a side effect of the restoration potion he drank. He DID add a little to much hummingbird feathers, which might of temporarily increased his wing speed and energy reserves. Hypothetically speaking, of course. 

"Anyway...why am I hear again? Oh yes, potion! Presentation! Board! Work! Red Tape! Finished?" So maybe he DID overuse the hummingbird feathers a bit. He may be an excellent alchemist, but he is far from the best. He makes mistakes sometimes. And those mistakes lead to slurred language, Sonic Rainbooms, and hyperactivity.
