Take to the seas.

Chasing was put into his thoughts by over dramaticness of Pinkie. " Nope, never had cake. The sweetest thing I've had was salt. When you live on a boat, sugar isn't something you need to have around." Pinkies jaw dropped at the latest information and she looked like she was about to break into tears " Well, since I forgot to ask you earlier, have you seen my father. If you found me he was probably pretty close by."

Pinkie was still stuck with her mouth wide open so he averted his eyes to Rarity, which of whom he was trying not to look at so he wouldn't stare. He noticed that the look she was giving him wasn't very encouraging. It was something between feeling sorry for somepony and being scared to say something. " Well... we found him."

"Oh, thats good. Where is he now," Chasing had a newfound proudness that he was going to back to his adventures so soon yet felt hazy about the look that Rarity had .

"Well he wasn't exactly... um, how do I put this, okay."  Rarity was looking at the tiled floor now and was suppressing a scared look

" What do you mean by him not being okay," He asked

....

Rarity let out a gulping sound while trying to prepare herself to tell him. " Um... When we found him, he wasn't breathing and it was, well, oh dear," Rarity had started to sweat from the pressure that was being put onto her and looked around to find the best answer to her question. " It was to late to help him. Im sorry dear but there was nothing we could do. Please don't be mad, we honestly couldn't do anything."

Chasings' head fell to the ground as his emotions started to flow into him and new thoughts crossed his mind. He could only think of his father and the adventures that they had gone on. " Don't worry, i'm not mad. I just don't know exactly what to do now. You see, my father is the last relative I had and now, I guess it's just me."Chasing turned to the door to leave but stopped just before he left. " Do you know where I can find him."

" He is in the last building down the road, hell probably be the last pony to have been checked in." Rarity had averted her eyes to where Pinkie had been to find that the pink mare was no longer there. " They will ask you a few questions when you get there so they can give him a proper ceremony."

Chasing had already left the building and was standing out side the small bakery when he turned to shut the door. " Thanks," he called while shutting the door with just a small enough frame to see Pinkie trotting down the stairs with a large box on her head.

....

Chasing had been sitting by the coffin that his dad had been put for several hours at the time. He had given the lady at the front desk all the information that she had requested and had scheduled his burial ceremony to be eight days from then at the highest point of the day so he could see his father for the last time in clear daylight. It was in his last minutes of the visiting hours when a purple alicorn walked through the doors that led to the room he was in.

" Hey, my friend Pinkie here told me about your loss." The purple alicorn was about to start on a story when Chasing cut in

" You know, i'm sure she told everyone now hasn't she. It's not like I need everyone coming by to tell me their sorry. Three people have come in here and told me that they were sorry for me." The look of defeat that had stained Chasings' face was now gone and was replaced by pure anger. " How can anypony feel bad for someone that they have never meet before. It's strange that ponies can say something on place of something that they have never understood or cared to even look for or seek out. I don't like it when people come in here and say 'im sorry' when they don't even know what they are sorry for."

Guilt was now streaking Chasings face as he realized that he had gotten mad at a princess. A moment had passed by before he felt he was able to talk again. " Listen i'm sorry about what I said just now, I'd just like a little time with my father." At the very moment one of the employes of the funeral home walked.

" Visiting hours are over. Please leave soon and come back tomorrow." Her blank expression never changed even when she saw the purple alicorn standing in the room. After telling them that they needed to go she went back to the room she was in to continue what she was working on.

" Well... I am yet to introduce myself. My name is Twilight Sparkle. Who may you be." Twilight asked, clearly hoping to be answered and not yelled at.

" My name is Chasing and Im sorry I got mad at you, its just, well... my father was the last of my family besides from me."

" Well thats not a problem, it'l be like it never happened. Come along with me, I have been requested to bring you to something. If it's ok with you, this will be your new housing arrangement. I'm sure you'll love the location." Twilight let off a vibrant smile as she walked Chasing to his new housing arrangement... next to sugar cube corner.

" Yep, love the location," Chasing said sarcastically. He was frightened by what could happen to him every morning here.

-wake up to the beautiful morning

-Have a nice breakfast

-Clean up the house a little bit

• Leave the house in hopes of walking into a nice sunny day... to find Pinkie waiting for him with one of those smiles that only she can let off.

" It's a really nice house, a little bit smaller then some but it'l do." Twilight was trying to make herself sound normal but was clearly letting something get the best of her. " How about you go and take a look around.

Chasing took a good look at the place saw nothing out of the ordinary so decided to go in to be greeted by streamers, ponies, balloons, and worst of all... Pinkie Pie who had clearly made a bad first impression. He didn't have time to think about how to escape when he was surrounded by Rarity, Pinkie, Twilight, a small baby dragon, and three other ponies that he was yet to meet.

I'm so glad you made it. I wanted to introduce you to alllll my bestest of friends so I decide to throw you a party." The voice of the pink mare gave him a small headache and thoughts that he probably should never have." This is Applejack."

Well howdy there partner, I'm so glad to meet you, Pinkie told me all about you," he was then brought into a furious hoof-shake the the peach colored mare.

"This is Rainbowdash."

" Yep, thats me." He was then confronted by a Rainbow mained mare." Im the fastest pegasus in all of Equestria... and i'm ohhh, I'd say a good twenty percent cooler than any pony else to."

" And this is Fluttershy."

He was greeted by a shriveling mare. " H- hi im f-f-flutershy." she slowly raised a hoof up to him to greet him and he took her own hoof into his own and shook it slowly while eyeing down the mare who was retreating back to where she originally was.

" And lets not forget spike."

A small green and purple baby dragon walked toward him without any kind of special formality or weakness. " Hi, I'm spike. I help out at the library like a second hand if you ever care to drop by." Chasing found that relief flood over him as he found that he was not the only male being at the party.

Without a notice he found the heat of another ponies muzzle pushed up against his. " So, what do you think huh." He found Pinkie even more annoying at this point than he had at any other.

Chasing had no problem showing he emotions through his face, something he shouldn't be proud of. " I think it interesting, just like you." He found himself to late to catch himself on the last line and worried that she might take that as him flirting with her, but she seemed unswayed by his remark.

" Ok everypony, it's time to PARTY." Chasing found that Pinkies muzzle had left his and she had mysteriously vanished into thin air. He found himself on a search for her but gave up just as quickly as Pinkie had disappeared. Chasing merely shrugged it off and went to find Rainbow Dash.

"You said that you were the fastest flyer in all of Equestria didn't you?" Chasing gave her the most challenging look he could muster and tried to forget about his father for the time being.

" You know it. I've never been out flown." Rainbow Dash had pure pride covering her head as she marveled at her own wing strength.

"Well then, what your highest wing power."

" My wing power rests at a outstanding sixteen point five."

" Ha, thats nothing. I once got to twenty three point six." Chasing now took his own turn to marvel at his own wings.

" That's impossible. No one could ever fly like that. I refuse to believe you." Rainbow Turned away from Chasing and went to cradling her own wings.

The other five ponies and spike were starting to gather around them to inspect on what was making such a commotion. " If you don't believe me, how about a friendly race?" Chasing gave her a challenging glare and Rainbow knew she could not back out of such a race.

" Fine, lets do this but don't go crying when I beat you." Rainbow was full of confidence and wore it proudly in the face of her opponent.

"It'l be tomorrow at noon."

"I'm totally good with that."
