Ed awoke from the simulator as he leaned up and immediately took the headset off. He was still in Unleashed mode as he blinked turning his eyes back to normal while turning off his power. He brought the headset with him as he got up and started to walk to the control room where the elevator was. As he entered the room he was bombarded by Rainbow Dash.

"What kind of shit was that, you cheated that test, their's no way anyone could do shit like-"

She was immediately pushed to the side as Ed pushed her face away causing her to move. He saw Luna sitting at her monitors typing furiously as she had a look of confusion sprayed across her face. Ed walked up right beside her looking at the monitor as he leaned on her chair.

"What was that and can I borrow this?" Ed asked as he brought the headset to her side showing her what he wanted.

"Firstly yes you can borrow that, secondly, I'm trying to figure out what you and the spider said to each other, the spider I couldn't even understand, but your tongue was rather familiar since it sounded human, still, none of the translation programs I used so far haven't done anything but just generate random letters all mashed together, the only thing I got from your conversation was that final part were you said, 'you have my word' but even then you talking to the spider and it responding back confuses the moon out of me, was it something from your magic that caused a glitch or something?" Luna said never averting her eyes from the screen as she typed with amazing speed.

"Luna I'm not really sure, I'll consult somebody about it but really I thought you would know, look instead of translating what we said just focus on what the spider is or how you even programmed it into the simulator" Ed responded as he leaned off the chair as he still watched Luna work.

"Well the programming was simple I just scanned the blood and then... wait no that's not right... no no that would make sense actually" Luna said as she stopped typing and leaned back in her chair bringing a hand to her chin as she pondered about something.

"You got something?" Ed asked raising a brow.

"Yeah I might, I'll let you know when I confirm it with my own eyes, I have your phone number so let me work for a while alright, If what I think happened actually happened then I'll give you a call right away, for now leave me be, take your team and do whatever Celestia has planned, the virtual testing is over, now leave me to my work" Luna said as she returned to her computer and began typing furiously.

Ed just shrugged as he walked with his headset in his hand to the elevator. The girls getting the vibe that testing was over and Luna wanted to be let alone quickly followed Ed into the elevator. They all gathered in quickly as someone hit the button to the main floor. The doors closed and the elevator began it's rise. There was a awkward silence for some reason as no one looked at each other. Ed could feel it was because of him as he let out a deep sigh and leaned against the wall he stood by.

"What's wrong Ed?" Applejack asked being the closes one near him.

"I'm just getting tired of everyday, I never wanted anything in life except for a few things but now my only wish is to have a normal life, but it seems like fate has other options I suppose, even know I wonder how I'm still sane, because every time I close my eyes, I'm afraid I'll wake up in a hospital back at home with a bullet wound on my body" Ed said in a drained matter.

"Now how come you'll be afraid of waking up in some hospital now?" AJ asked curious as to why.

"Because AJ, if I wake up, then none of this is real and I've been dreaming all this time" Ed said simply as he gave a sad smile to AJ making her tilt her head.

"But this is real, your awake and shaking sugarcube, and if anything your more alive then ever to be in a hospital, so don't fret now" AJ said giving a light punch to Ed's arm.

Ed looked around seeing everyone stare at him with blank looks, they must not understand what he was saying but here AJ was smiling and being supportive none the less. He smiled back as he looked to AJ.

"I think if I ever need my senses checked I'll come to you alright?" Ed asked smiling all the while.

"Sure thing Ed" AJ replied giving a toothy grin.

As the elevator came to a stop the doors opened and out was the main floor. After everyone exited the elevator, the mane six and Celestia all stood in a circle as people walked here and there in the main room of the huge place.

"Alright Celestia what's the plan now-" Ed was interrupted as someone tapped the back of his shoulder.

He turned and saw another office lady with a gun of course, at the hip holstered staring right at him as she smiled causally.

"Yes? Ed asked curious as to what the random lady wanted.

She quickly responded. "A friend requests your presence in the library this instant, no worry or rush" The lady said before nodding and leaving.

Ed just tilted his head. "Not the strangest things that's happened but surely on the list" Ed thought as he turned back to the group looking directly to Celestia.

"Hey Celestia can I go-"

"Go ahead, I'll have Twilight fill out all the paper work for you and the team since she refused to be team leader, but there's still the team design and your own weapon, we'll talk about those later, it seems your needed else where" Celestia said causally.

"Whatttttt?" Twilight sung out obviously unhappy with her new assignment.

Ed just smiled as he saluted and dashed off. "Thanks Pres, thanks Twilight, see you girls later!" Ed yelled out heading toward the Library if his memory of the map still held true in his head.
