My Little Friendship Confusion Is Magic

Jared walked down the dimly lit path through the forest. He studied the batch of the sleeping potion he made. It had a green hue to it and seemed to produce a glow. He opened the bottle and scooped up some of it in his hoof. It felt like some sort of gelatin.

"I wonder.", he stated to himself.

He stuck some of it on a nearby tree. He walk forward a little bit, turned around, and shot a small fire ball at it. The gel instantly caught on fire.

"Huzzah!", Jared said happily.

After extinguishing the fire, he continued down the path. He reached a small cottage at the edge of the forest. Several types of animals were up and about. Jared looked up at the sky. From what he could tell it was in the early afternoon.

Jared walked around the cottage to the front door. He debated if he should ask for directions or not for a second, and then knocked. The door opened to see a yellow Pegasus with pink hair.

"C-can I help you?", the yellow pony asked. She looked down at his leg. "Oh my gosh! We need to get you to the hospital.", she said pushing Jared along.

"Thanks, but I don't need to. Do you know the way to the library?", Jared asked calmly.

The pegasus stopped pushing, "Of course. Follow me.", the she said.

"I'm Jared by the way.", Jared said.

"My names Fluttershy.", the Pegasus said.

Jared followed her towards Ponyville. It was bigger looking at it from out here.

"We'll have to go by Sugar Cube Corner.", Fluttershy said.

Jared nodded and followed her there. When they got there, several ponies where standing near a hole talking. Jared recognized one of them immediately. It was Applejack.

"Hey Fluttershy, ya'll come here real quick?", she asked. Fluttershy walked up to the hole while Jared stayed behind listening.

"What happened?", Fluttershy asked.

"Tristen got caved in down there and me Pinkie and Twi don't know how to get him out.", Applejack said.

The other ponies nodded in agreement. One was Twilight and the other what Jared guessed to be Pinkie.

"I know how.", Jared said smiling. He walked up to the hole and jumped down it without stopping.

"Wait", Twilight said to late,"Isn't he supposed to be in the hospital?"

The three other ponies shrugged. Jared fell to the bottom and landed without a signal injury, other than his rebroken leg. He couldn't see anything around him. His horn started to glow and flames appeared around it.

"Ah much better.", he said now that he can see.

He saw where the cave in accrued. He started digging it out with his hoofs. It seemed like an eternity, but he dug it out. On the other side of the cave in was a shaft going straight. A pile of gems laying at the foot of the cave in. Jared picked up one of the rubies that were there and put it in his bag.

"Tristen now, gem later.", he said to himself. He followed the shaft. It wasn't natural. Someone or something had to of dug it. He heard a faint TINK in the distant. Jared broke into a run down the shaft. The noise was getting louder and louder. At the end of the shaft was a black unicorn with a pic axe mining away at the rocks. Jared snuck up behind him.

"I'M GOING TO PUT MY PAIN INTO YOUR SOUL!", Jared yelled.

Tristen jumped and bashed his head on the ceiling.

"Bwahahaha.", Jared laughed.

"Screw you dude.", Tristen yelled laying on the ground.

"It was a perfect opportunity. You can't deny that.", Jared said smiling.

He helped Tristen up. "What did you do now?", Tristen asked looking at Jared's broken leg.

"Something stupid.", Jared replied.

"How does that not surprise me.", Tristen said jokingly.

"Help!", screamed a faint voice.

The to stallions looked at each other.

"That was definitely down here.", Tristen said.

"Well, what are you waiting for? We need to head in deeper.", Jared said bucking at the wall.

"Right.", Tristen said swinging at the wall.
