private Ponyville-A month later(Action/Adventure)

Max thought hard about that. His thought process is going too fast to put into words, but he thought back to how he used a similar potion to heal his broken wing. A recover that by normal means would take at least a month to completely heal.

"Well, we could tell them that proper research into this could lead to the discovery of not only a cure for blindness, but other diseases. If you look on page 243 in my journal, you will see I used a similar potion to heal my wing where conventional medicine would have it restored in a month. We could cure neuromuscular diseases, or auto-immune viruses. This could be the greatest medical discovery since the painkiller." Out of that entire speech, Max took roughly 2 breaths. He made a mental note to review the potion formula to see what the problem is, but he had more pressing issues.

"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. 

 

 

Corkscrew

 

"Well, I guess I'll see you all tomorrow. I'm going to go check on DarkSun and get some rest for the big race."

 

Corkscrew leaves town hall and begins to fly around Ponyville until he sees Rairity and DarkSun walking together.

"Well hello you two, looks like you've been busy today. I'm just going to head home and relax. Tomorrow is a big day in Ponyville, the big race. If ether of you plan on participating, I would go sign up now."

 

Corkscrew flys off in the direction of his house where he notices a package sitting on his front porch. He lands nearby and takes it into his home. Once inside he notices that it has the seal of Canterlot and is addressed to him. He stares at the package for a few moments before opening it. Inside the box, he can see that it is some kind of armor, but not in a shade that he recognized. He was not one for wearing his.

 

"I wonder what this could be for?" he says to himself.

 

As he takes it out of the box he notices that it is a gunmetal color with copper accents.

 

"You know what, I'm going to put it on to surprise DarkSun when he gets home, than go to bed."

 

Corkscrew walks over to a mirror putting on his helmet. 

 

"Darn! I look sharp! I may have to wear this set more often...no...I don't want to be seen as anypony more than just a regular run of the mill....but I do look good."

 

Corkscrew, remembering back to the time he told DogBoots about being in the guard and remembering his reaction. Someday he had to tell him about how he got into the guard and why the other recruits disliked him so.

"Well, I doubt the Wonderbolts would be attending this race but still, it's not all that bad. It presents an opportunity to be versatile not just in wing speed but also ground speed as well." He said trying to motivate Storm Cloud. The stallion was also a bit unaware that it was a running race but still he was uninterested. Competitions weren't usually Dogboots favorite past time.

"Ehh, true. I guess I'll enter the race." Storm Cloud signed his name on the sign-up sheet. "But I've never raced without flying before though. Not even as a little colt." Storm Cloud tried jogging in place to see how his hoof-work is. He wasn't really confident with what he saw. He was thinking about cheating but it would be too noticeable. He needed help from somepony who's quick on the ground.

"This will work. I know it will! This is so exciting!" Max was doing all he could to keep from flying around the room, keeping his wings to his side.

"So how do these presentation thingys work? Is there anything I must do. Should I dress even sharper than I already am?" Max was eager to get started, but he didn't want to screw this up. He was willing to do almost anything for this.

"Then there's no better time than now to learn. I can help train and prepare you for the race."  The stallion said to Storm Cloud eagerly. Dogboots was used to running to the point where his speed was impressive for wearing a weighted vest and boots. If he had taken them off who knows how fast he would be able to run. However, that wasn't important for him. "I can't guarantee that you'll be super fast by the day of the race but I can guarantee that you'll be faster than you were before." He said confidently to the pegasi.

"The way that it works is that the board will call us up and we're to present our- I mean your research to them. After giving the presentation they will give us their input and ask any questions that they have. Now, I've dealt with these ponies and they mean serious business, so you have to let me do the talking. If they address you and ask you any questions than your more than welcome to answer them just make sure to do so in a respectable manner. Thirdly, I would highly advise that you dress more professionally for this. We need to make a good impression if we're to have any chance of them passing this onto Celestia." Neutron advised the hyper-active pegasi in his house. He could already see that Max was more hyper than he had ever seen him before. Then again, Neutron barely even knew Max. He only knew the stallion due to his brief connection with his older brother.

"OK. I should see about a tux. Tux's are fancy, and they like that. I think. I should probably run home and round up the money I have made selling medicinal potions. Be right back." Max leapt out the same-still open-window as before, taking off with full speed. 

 

6 and a half minutes later

 

Max landed in front of his cottage, making a loud thud as he did, looking back at the contrail he left.

"That's twice that's happened. I should see a doctor when this is over." He trotted inside, looking around. When he made it to the closet, he saw he already had a tux.

"Why do I...the wedding. That's right." This tux was the same one he wore to his wedding 3 years ago.

"Feels like a lifetime since then." He muttered numbly to himself. He grabbed the tux, trying it on quickly to see if it still fit. It did. He folded it carefully, putting it into a saddlebag, and heading out again, flying straight for Canterlot.

 

7 minutes later

 

Landing on the sidewalk just across from Neutrons home, he cracked the sidewalk he stood on, creating a loud thud. The effects have finally been worked out of his system. But now three green lines streak across the sky, connecting Ponyville and Canterlot. He flew back through the window he leapt from, showing Neutron the tux.

"OK. I am ready for this, whenever it happens." Max said, a bit out of breath.

Darksun found the gems and took them to Raritys place but she wasnt there so he put them on her doorstep and went home to feed his ormmar and jingles and pookie since corkscrew was out a lot. when he got home he noticed a box on the table and went to ask corkscrew if he knew what was in the box because it was empty.

She watched Stella turning somersaults in the air for a moment, but turned her attention back Corkscrew at the mention of Rainbow Dash and a Pegasus race. She grinned, "Rainbow Dash?!" she was instantly in front of him, fluttering her wings. She blushed and calmed herself before speaking again, "I, uh, don't know about competing in a race, but I certainly do want to meet Rainbow Dash. She seems like the performer pony sort.

"Wow, you'd really do that for me? Thanks a lot! Now can you wait here for a moment? I need to ask Mayor Mare about the house I asked her for when I first arrived here in Ponyville. It'll take no more than 5 minutes." Storm Cloud was still optimistic about the house that he asked for.

Max nodded, his energy reserves finally depleted. He fluttered out the window, and began looking around Canterlot. Something he has never done before. He explored the upper class area he was at first, and finding that everything here was extremely expensive, he moved on to the lower part of town. No part of town was sleazy or poor, more like different levels of rich or important. He eventually stumbled on a hotel that was within price range. He didn't want to impose on Neutron anymore than necessary. So after getting a key, he headed out to get something to eat. Nothing really eventful happened for the remainder of the day, save for him helping a cat out of a tree. Finally he ended up in his hotel room, staring at the ceiling, thinking of every possible way he could screw up tomorrow.

Mayor Mare narrowed her eyes at Storm Cloud. She was practically glaring at the young pegasi. "No it isn't and it won't be finished until after a few days. Believe it or not, gray clouds aren't as common as you think. Cloudsdale is usually the town that produces weather and producing a gray cloud for a pegasi takes a lot of paperwork. I got officials in Cloudsdale asking me why I need a gray cloud to begin with. According to one of the officials, gray clouds are normally used for weather and harvesting. Having one as a home is not only irresponsible but also a waste of precious resources that are better suited elsewhere. Lastly, having a gray cloud as a home would cost quite a lot of money. To the point where it would take a sizable chunk out of the towns budget." She exclaimed at the gray pegasi. The mayor was still a little irritated about her conversation earlier with one of the pegasi who practically embarrased her after she had requested the cost of a gray cloud.

Storm Cloud raised an eyebrow and said, "Oook, uhhh thanks. I really appreciate it Mayor, especially since you went through all of that trouble." Storm Cloud actually didn't give a rat's tail about what trouble she had to go through, but he didn't show it. As long as he got the gray cloud house he was happy. He faked a smile, which he was good at.

I think I like her a small bit I it does not mean I have a crush with her" I tell himself.He out up form the ground and turn his head and saw a poster on the City Hall side wall. The poster read Ponyvill is haveing a race tomorrow and it read to join you need to sign up in City Hall."Umm I well like to race but the mera I like is in there I will like not to talk to her now. If I talk to her I well sound like a idiot to her and  amongst all the ponies I know" he thought to himself. He thought for a minutes and decided to walk in normandy hoping his pony he know do not see him. He walk to the place to sign up and saw who is in the race. " Corkscrew is in the race and there is a pony I head before Rainbow Dash this is going to be a hard race" he said in a low voice. After that he walk out of City Hall and took a deep breath. And walk to the corner waiting for Corkscrew and ask him about the mare pegisai if he know her.

The Mayor was nearly fuming at the pegasi. To her, he didn't seem like he actually cared about any of this. The town budget was not just some plaything to her. She sighed at what she would have to deal with in order to get the pegasi what he want. In her opinion, She thought that Storm Cloud didn't deserve at all. She had half a mind to just give him a plain white cloud house or no house at all. She soon walked away from Storm Cloud. A minute longer with him and she would've done something that she'd regret.

Mr. G

It has been many years that he is wandering around Equestria. With most of his friends dead many years ago, all this strange pony can do is to spend his eternity walking around his former home. "Sucks to live on this planet till the end of time," he thought.

He is also extremely bored.

Sick of being unable to talk with anypony, he screamed, "Hello? Is anypony there?" He immediately thought next that nopony would still hear him, "Buck it, if the ponies won't come to me, I'll have to come to them," so he decided to keep wandering until he finds somepony else to socialize with.

"A house on gray clouds is quite uncommon then again i've seen more expensive real estate in my time so I can't really judge." Dogboots said as they began to approach the house. "Wait here." He instructed Storm Cloud. The stallion headed inside and grabbed his spare vest along with a pair of boots. After a while, Dogboots soon came back outside with the materials he had. "I want you to put these on and do 20 laps around the house." He said dropping the vest and the boots on the dirt ground. The impact of the vest hitting the ground was a clear indicator that there was a good deal of weight behind it. "Normally, most ponies would start out easy but we're not doing that. What I got here is a spare vest of mine which carries quite a lot of weight and the boots here are to make your running a little more difficult. By the way, I would appreciate it if you could avoid running over my garden." The earth pony stated bluntly to the pegasi. Dogboots knew that he would have to work him hard like an earth pony if he were to even have a chance at the race.

Mr.G just kept walking for a few hours. Is anypony even around this area, he thought. Most ponies that see him only see a black silhouette, but ignored him, thinking it's just smoke.

An hour later, he saw a house. He also saw two ponies talking to each other. One of them is a pegasus, while the other is an earth pony.
