The next day was a sunny Monday 10 o’clock AM in Manehattan with the bustling sounds. Kervin goes to work in the MPD by taking a walk on the sidewalk with his casual hoodie attire outfit. He entered the Hooftalian door with the bell ringing on top and sees his boss serving some pizza in the buffet.

“ Hey boss!” He greeted

"Kervin my favorite chef! How are you doing!"

"Pretty fine I guess…"

Miguel was proud of him. He said "I saw in the news you were in. You really show that Iron Will guy a good beating!"

"Yeah it was worth it. But I feel a little bad for him…Anyway I don't want to show off but take a look what I just found what I found in my first treasure hunt last week." He said

Kervin showed his shiny magical amulet from his neck without any secret that he is hidding

"An amulet?" Miguel asked

"Yeah that why I got those abilities. Watch!"

With his Alicorn amulet Kervin uses telekinesis by getting a glass from the utensils station, pours soda from the soda fountain and takes a big cold refreshing gulp with his telekinesis.

He sighed happily and said

"That’s the stuff…"

"You know you’re supposed to pay for that right?"

"Sorry I-"

"That’s ok it’s just one glass I accepted it. But where did you get that strange amulet?" Miguel asked

"I break into a ho- Uh. ..I mean chest. Yeah I break into a chest when I found the amulet in a dragon cave full of treasures when adventure"

"Wait if you got the amulet and also the treasure from a dragon cave. Did you fight a dragon?"

"No, because I remembered long time ago that my friend convince the dragon to leave the cave near to Ponyville. But the dragon did not realize he just flied away empty handed. So I got lucky that the dragon did not comeback."

"Heh! You are one lucky guy. But why you did not tell me a week ago?"

"I just forgot sorry"

"Yeah… But after I got the amulet, the treasure and defeated Iron Will. Well…" Kervin takes a deep breath and says "I just feel like I want to move on."

Miguel has no idea how he react when he said that but replied "Wait… You’re not going come back for work?"

"Well yeah…"

"You are one of my favourite chefs in my pizza buffet restaurant. Why do you want to move on?"

Kervin sighed and replied "Being a pizza chef is a nice job to work, making customers happy, cooking delicious food but. I really want to move on because… I just want to be almost like my friends in Ponyville you know like an adventurer. Boss I’ve worked in this restaurant for six years and six years is the same routine. Come here to this restaurant, cook some food for the customers, and get paid. It’s a good job but I really want to try something new…. That’s why I want to find some exciting adventurers waiting for me"

Miguel doesn’t know what to say and what to react. His restaurant was popular when Kervin first came as a live chef. Miguel was not sure if he can release his favourite chef or not. But he has not to.

"Wait Kervin… Just because want to move on… Does not mean you quit as a chef"

"I’m not?"

"Of course not!" Miguel said "I heard some of your friends in Ponyville do other things while they are not adventuring like Princess Twilight who is teaching her faithful student, Applejack who is farming in Sweet Apple Acres, Fluttershy as caretaker with animals, Rainbow Dash in weather patrol or something, Pinkie Pie as a baker and Rarity who is fashion designing. You are my favorite chef and you don’t have to work here every weekdays. You can just come here if you want to."

"Like a side activity?"

"Uhm….yeah like a side activity "

"Okay... thanks!"

Kervin is glad that he can still work here if he wants to. Miguel is curious of the use of the amulet in cooking.

"Hey about your amulet have you tried cooking while using that amulet magic?"Miguel questions Kervin

"No I really have not tried it… But I think that is an interesting idea!"

"Excellent! Now get to work in your live cooking act!" Miguel said proud manner

Kervin goes to his live cooking station. He massages his hooves, prepares some of his ingredients and ready made, cooking tools, and lighting fire from the oven. Kervin takes a deep breath and slam the pizza dough on the floured table. Kervin uses his rolling pin with his magic and rolls the dough flat in one roll. He flips the dough in the air and spins the dough with his telekinesis magic like a spinning saw. With his speed he quickly magically grabs a potato and slices it in to thin chips, next he chops the garlic into bits. The customers in the restaurant paused eating from their table and sees Kervin cooking with style. Kervin quickly drops the pizza dough on the station table, magically add some special recipe white sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, thin sliced potatoes and seasoned with garlic bits salt, pepper and oregano. After he made the topping he throws the pizza like a Frisbee into the brick pizza oven. The fire in the oven makes beautiful blast of flame when he threw the pizza, when he takes the pizza using the pizza spatula served on the buffet station with perfection.

The customers in the restaurant applauds with a cheerful bravo and starts to taste pizza again while some for the first time eating in the MPD restaurant, They were so delighted and happy that customers asked Kervin for more varieties of food to cooking his live cooking station like Vegie Margherita, Heywai Pineapple, All Cheese, Heyburger mushroom and some other delicious types of toppings that the customers want, especially the side dishes like fries, onion hoof rings, potato chips and garlic bread.

In the evening it was now closing time. Most of the customers are stuffed and happy when they left the restaurant while few were still eating inside. Kervin finished his work and Miguel did not just give the cut but lets him take out his favorite pizza and some other few favorite meals even a cola bottle from the storage. Miguel did not place it in a takeout box because it’s a buffet restaurant but he decided to place it in a foil and a plastic bag that he found from the kitchen. Kervin said goodbye to Miguel and walks away.

3 minutes later Kervin continued walking in the sidewalks. He felt hungry after his work in cooking. Kervin gets a slice of pizza from his plastic bag but suddenly he hears some pony getting bullied or being mugged.

“Hey what are you guys doing?” said an unknown Innocent victim

“Oh nothing just checking if you stuff” said the unknown bully

Kervin places the pizza slice back to the bag and goes to the dark alley to check what is going on. He sees 3 young earth colt bullies bullying the yellow colt. Kervin recognized him from the seminar two days ago and it was Rookie.

“Hey that’s mine!” said Rookie to his bullies

The bully opens Rookie’s bag of tools and spare parts and drops it on the floor every last one of it while the other 2 bullies stomp at the tools to destroy it. Rookie got mad and tries to punch the first bully but the bully punch him to the stomach and now to the face that made Rookie knocked out on the cold hard ground. The leading bully asked the 2 bullies too pick him up and holds him like a hostage. Kervin can’t take it anymore of Rookie beaten up like a punching bag. So he plans to save him with his amulet. The bully tries to give Rookie a right straight hook to the face but it was interfered by Kervin right behind him grabbing the bully’s right shoulder and takes down with a cross arm breaker by quickly pulling his upper right arm, the other two bullies dropped Rookie on the ground and tries to attack Kervin. But Kervin dodge the 2 bullies’ attacks. With his Martial Arts moves He assaults them with a 2 quick Roundhouse kicks and a Leaping Tiger kick on the head to the 2nd bully and the 3rd with a quick Armada kick, a Meia Lua kick and knocks down with a Salto Sango kick (Brayzsilian Backflip kick) on the air. While the bullies try to get back their feet. Kervin goes to Rookie and said.

"Don’t word these kids are taken care of….”

“H-h- hey... are you the pegasus from-“

“The seminar? Yeah that’s… me alright”

Kervin show his hoof for support

While he tries to pick Rookie up, The leading bully grabs an empty broken bottle and throws at Kervin

“Don’t worry. Lend me your hoof. I will take you to my place to fix things u-“

But with his amulet and his reflexes Kervin catches the bottle magically with his telekinesis by showing his upper right hoof

“Did you just try to break my wings with a bottle?”

The bullies did not expect how powerful he can be so they tried to run away out of the dark alley but suddenly Kervin appeared unexpectedly standing in front of them seeing him leaning on the wall with his upper hooves crossing

“Whoa wait a minute! Do you really actually think that I would just let you go and run away home just like you see on movies? That is so cliche...”

2 minutes later the bullies were not killed but beaten, Kervin cuffed the bullies with his hand cuffs that he summoned with his amulet. He is not a cop but still it was legit for him and silenced with duct tape that he found it on the floor. He silenced the 2 bullies But the leading bully begged for mercy

‘Please! Let us go! W- we won’t do this again! It’s just a j-“

Kervin silence the leading bully by putting duct tape to the mouth. The leading bully muffled trying to speak with his mouth taped on but Kervin replied.

“Yep! That’s what they all say…”

After he dealt with the bullies. Kervin walks near to Rookie injured almost recovering from sitting down on the side of the wall.

“Come with me kid. I will take you to my place”

“Okay...”

Rookie sits and holds on Kervin’s back and Kervin quickly flies but he forgot something that he was bringing

“Aw darn it!” he said to himself

Kervin quickly gets his bag of food from the floor. It’s still clean that nopony stole or ate it, After he checked his food bag he sees Rookie’s bag of craft materials lying on the ground. So he picked it up anyways.

After 20 minutes later in Kervin’s apartment, Rookie’s eyes awoken from his rest on the soft couch. He positioned his laydown into a sitting position. He looked all around the clean living room; he even looked at his injuries that were healed. Rookie’s does not know where he is. Suddenly he hears a microwave beeping sound in the kitchen. Kervin opens the microwave door and smells the refreshing microwaved pizza inside the oven. He magically takes it out from the microwave with his telekinesis even the the potato chips, bottle of cola and some cocktail glasses with ice cubes and serves it on the living room table.

“Hey kid I got something to eat and drink”

Kervin sits down with Rookie on the couch and magically gets a cola and pours it in the two glasses. He magically takes one cocktail glass of cola asked Rookie

“Would you like a drink?”

“Did you add cola in a wine glass? “

"I know you think it looks like drink for grownups or a drink that some pony gets drunk but don’t worry there is no alcoholic organic compound in this glass. I’ve drinked cola in some wine glasses when I was a colt”

Rookie takes the glass of cola and thanked him

“Okay thanks…”

“Care to watch some tv?”

“Uhm… sure!”

Kervin uses his telekinesis and gets the gold remote from the table and presses the power button with his amulet magic. The golden flat screen tv flashed into the news channel and its only just about weather reports that is nothing special in the news.

“Hey… what channel do you want?” Kervin asked…

Rookie starts thinking for 10 seconds with a “Hmm…” of what he wants watch and replied

“Can you change the channel to Ponimax?”

“Watching some anime right? Alright Ponimax it is!”

Kervin uses the remote again and switches the channel Ponimax, the channel shows of two ponies wearing city vigilante outfits looking each other in the eyes for few seconds and they start fighting each other using cell phones by pressing apps to wield weapons like they are in a hacking simulation. Kervin and Rookie watches the show and remained silent for 12 seconds, Kervin takes a slice of his potato pizza

“So…” Kervin said in a tricky situation “Rookie right?” and he takes a bite from his pizza

“Yeah” Rookie replied “And you are?”

“Kervin” he said his name “The name is Kervin”

“Oh….”

Kervin and Rookie remained silent again for few seconds. They don’t know what they will say next. When Rookie sees Kervin’s pizza, He is eating with his red telekinesis magic aura without a horn.

“Wait…You’re a pegasus where did you get that unicorn magic?”

“You mean This?”

With no secrets or hush hush. Kervin showed his amulet from his neck that star to glow red from the rubies. Rookie was curious about his amulet.

“What is that thing?”

“I think it’s some amulet unicharm thing or something. I found this in Everfree forest when finished collecting treasures in the dragon cave”

“And you fought the dragon?”

“No” He said “It’s because the dragon left the cave years ago. But I managed to get the flawless treasure until my inventory full”

"That’s… kinda lucky”

“Yep” Kervin replied and finishes the slice of pizza “But don’t worry. Just because I have an awesome amulet that looks like it has pretty dark evil magic does not mean I have to be an evil guy who likes to cause like you see in movies a lot”

“But why did use your Amulet on Iron Will?”

“Because well I just want to test his mettle on him and wanted an epic fight. Also someone told me in the diner that his guru skills went to far and turned nice ponies into well…. Beast incarnates I think. You know what I mean”

Kervin takes a drink of his wine glass of cola and asked Rookie a question

“So… why are you alone in the dark streets of Manehattan”

Rookie explained about what just happened in the dark alley

"Well…. It all started in my house. I was making my science project for the science contest. All of a sudden there some parts that I have are missing. I checked some other parts all around the house but still there nothing special or useful in my house. So I decided to get my bits and buy special parts in the hardware store alone. After that my school bullies found me when I left the store. I ran as fast as I can to find a hiding spot in the cornered alley, But they found me and beat me like a punching a bag….Until you arrived and save me….”

Kervin said “ Yeah I save you alright.”

“But… why?” Rookie questions

Kervin take a deep breath sighed and answered “Because… when I see you got bullied you just reminded of me at your age”

“You reminded of me?”

“Yeah pretty weird… It’s just that when I see you get beaten by bullies I pictured it like it’s me getting abused by punches and mistreated with insults. All they did is just for no reason but for the fun of it. So decided to save you from bad bullies just like my old child friends save me.”

“And who are your childhood friends?” Rookie asked

“Well you know? The Mane 6” Kervin said

“Wait… You know the Mane 6?”

“Yep!”

But how did you meet them when you are still a colt?”

“It’s a long story” Kervin said “You see…”

Kervin starts explaining of everything about how he first met the mane 6 during his childhood years while eating microwaved food on the living room table and watching a movie. Rookie really appreciates his story that he asked more questions about him.

After they finished watching some ponified anime shows in the tv and eating microwave food. Its midnight and it’s time to take Rookie home. Rookie can’t go alone because there are some strangers that could happen to him and it will take a long time to go home by himself. So he asked Kervin if he can ride with him to his house. So he hops on and sits down on Kervin’s back and Kervin flies away out his apartment balcony.

While flying on the city of Manehattan, the lights of the city remain the same beautiful lights like a skyline, even the big screens showing advertisements in The Pony Time Square

Rookie was amazed seeing Manehattan up high

"Wow!... I never have seen this sight of Manehattan before.”

Kervin replied “Yeah! Pretty cool right?” Kervin asked him. “So where is your home anyway?”

Rookie said “You know Central park of Manehattan right?”

“Of course! I will take you there”

Kervin passed by building by building and made it to the Manehattan Central Park. The park light were still on, the leaves in the trees still continued swaying, and floor fountains with were still blasting like little volcanoes. Some other ponies have a stay and walk in the park, some ponies taking a bite from food vendors and some ponies passed by and leave the park.

“So where is your house anyway?” Kervin asked
Rookie points the east side of the central park with his right hoof and replied
“It’s right there. See those tall modern multicolored row houses? The yellow house is the place where I live”

Quickly Kervin descend himself and flies by the other row houses. Few lights in the windows were on but most where off. Kervin landed on the concrete sidewalk in front of Rookie’s yellow row house, Rookie jumps out of Kervin’s back said thanked him for taking a ride to his home.

“Thanks for taking me back home. I really appreciate it…” said Rookie

“Anytime Rookie” Kervin welcomed him.
“Hey wait! Before you go I have question.”

Before Rookie reached the door knob Kervin turns himself around faced at Kervin

“What is it?” Rookie replied.

“Do you have any siblings in your house? Like your brother and sister?”

“No…..I… really don’t have siblings. I’m just the only child here.”

Kervin feels a little worried about Rookie that he is the only child in his house. Kervin said to Rookie

“Look I’m sorry about your bad day right now. But hey…If you really need some little bit of help just give a little call if you want but sometimes I’m still busy. Also I placed a contact in your bag”

Kervin gives him back the bag of craft materials with his telekinesis magic that he got after a fight in the alley. Rookie said with appreciation

“Thanks Kervin… good night...”

“You too Rookie…”

After a quick conversation, Rookie goes back to his door and get inside house while Kervin flies back to his apartment for a good night's rest. The night is young even its midnight in Manehattan. What will Kervin do next for tomorrow?
