the story of shadows

"Hey Merch get up you have a conference today with all your local guild members." said Zorin. I annoyingly roll out of bed and into my cloak. as we walk down the road to the guild headquarters in ponyville I see a Pegasus flying my way at an alarming pace.

"Merch Mint think Celestia its you I need some ponies help." said Rainbow dash.

"Well I don't think this will be much of a proble..."

"I'm sorry but we're in in a hurry" said Zorin.

I hit Zorin in the back of the head "we always have time for a friend, what's wrong?

"It's tank's helicopter thing its out of control and he can't stop." we run over to try to catch tank when we see him get stuck in a tree. Rainbow dash gets him to me where I use my magic to restrain him so he doesn't go flying away from us. The fist thing I do is get him out of the machine and with Rainbow dash, "oh think Celestia your ok I thought I lost you." Rainbow dash looks at me and asks "can you fix it?"

"No, after hitting that tree it will be like building a brand new one, but I can build you a new one if you want?"

"I don't have the bits to buy a new one?"

"Then we can't do it." says Zorin. I hit him in the back of the head again.

"I would be happy to do it for you free of charge, consider it a compensation for the one that caused you so much trouble." and after saying that I used my magic to create a new helicopter for tank to fly with.

as we now walk back to the house after missing the conference with my guild I turn on Zorin "Lets get one thing straight we do not compromise our customers, my reputation or my FRIENDS because of one silly guild conference. When I saved your village that one day would it have been right for me to walk away cause I hade other things to do?"

"Well that was different, no ones life was on the line today."

"oh really what about tanks life, he was in danger today?"

"..........."

"that is why you always hear what everypony has to say before brushing them aside, if we hadn't listened to Rainbow dash today who knows what might have happened to tank." After walking a bit further I could see that the zebra kid wasn't lighting up. "Why don't we go to sugar cube corner, I could use a cupcake right about now." As we enter sugar cube corner I noticed something, the place was a mess and pinkie pie was running around the place franticly.

"I'm sorry but where closed." she shouted. As she was moving around the shop I realized something, she was packing.

"um....pinkie, where are you going?" she looked over at me with a sad look in her eyes and said "I'm going back to the rock farm."
me and Zorin had both said "why?" at the same time without thinking. After that she just gave us a sad look and continued packing. I thought if we said any more we might hurt her so I decided to leave and go home.

At the house I told Zorin to prepare my travel cart. "Don't you think it might be too much to go chasing after her like this? I know you like her but this may not be the best idea."

"I know Zorin but she just looked so sad that I'm willing to risk it, and Zorin I need you to stay here while I'm gone to look after every thing ok."

"Ok."
