I heard that weekends are a pretty big deal, but it honestly feals like a normal day to me, just without school. I continued to lay in my bed, feeling kind of bored. I just got into school, made friends but now... I'm feeling lazier then usual. Must be from yesterday, I normally never do thing like that on my free time but having other ponies along made it enjoyable. If only I could see the good times, at least once.

I heard knocking at my door, a gentle, motherly tap.

"Hey Milky, you have a visitor," Mom said. I got up from bed, groaning.

"Who is it?" I asked, rubbing my eyes.

"I think he said his name was Crisp," answered Mom. He came over by himself, that seems surprising.

"Alright, I'll be down in a second." I grabbed a pair of clothes to wear and hastily put them on. I walked out into the hallway and down the stairs. The cool tiles switching to warm carpet as I walked into the living room.

"I was wondering what was taking you so long," Crisp said with a relaxed tone. I heard sipping from my Pop's spot.

"You should've told us that you planned on having friends over," Pop said, continuing to sip his beverage. "Also your shirt is inside out."

"It is?" I felt around the neck line and felt the tag. I normally would feel for the tag first but I rushed. I went back to my room and switch the shirt back from inside out and went back down. "Better?" I asked.

"I can't believe you would be wearing something like that," Crisp said bluntly. "I mean, it doesn't seem something you would wear."

"Hah hah, I don't choose my style of clothes as I don't have a sense of fashion in the first place," I mock laughed. "What's wrong with the clothes I picked out anyways?"

"Maybe it might look better in your pony form."

"I mean, I'll be transforming anyways." I cast my spell, enveloping myself in warmth as my appearance changed. My persona covered the shell like exterior, giving me my disguise. "What did you even have planned Crisp?"

"I thought you would like to hang out. I just assumed you had nothing to do on the weekend."

"And why wouldn't you just chose your other group of friends?" His breathing increased slightly, in a nervous way.

"I just thought you would be a better choice that's all," he said, chuckling slightly. "I mean, they aren't always available and I just don't feel like be cooped up in my house all day."

"Where to? If you're asking a girl out you must have some sort of location in mind. How about we just go to a fast food place?"

"Sounds great..." Crisp sighed. "Let's get going then." I nodded then proceeded to leave with Crisp.

"Is something up Milky?" Crisp asked.

"Huh? Oh, just a bit hot out today that's all." I answered. I started tugging at my collar, trying to cool off. The concrete sidewalk felt cool under my hooves.

"Are you sure you're alright?" He asked with a worried tone.

"Yeah, I'm peachy, why did you ask?" I tilt my head to the side, questioning him.

"Nothing, just my imagination I assume." he responded. "We're here." I felt a spell of dizziness hit me, slowly losing thought. I felt a myself being pulled somewhere else, along the concrete sidewalk. I couldn't concentrate on what was exactly happening around me or to me.

I felt a worn out mattress beneath me, trying to act comfortable. I realized that my transformation has ran out. The smell of damp furniture hit me.

"You're awake, you had me worried." Crisp said. I slowly pushed myself up, settling fully.

"Where am I?" I asked, still a bit woozy.

"You're at my house," a mysterious mare answered. I nearly jumped out of the bed after hearing her. "I'm Crisp's mom, and also a medical... "professional" you can say." I did not like how monotone she spoke and what she just said.

"That's great to hear, but I should prob..."

"You're low on magic." she interrupted. "Changelings use more then ponies do when disguised and changelings can only replenish it through love extraction."

"But I've been gaining more love recently," I said, confused.

"Have you now? Yes you have but just because you gain more doesn't mean you can hold more."

"What do you mean?"

"Think of it like a cup of water. Every living thing has magic, even the plants, and every living thing needs it to live. Now each body has a capacity of magic it can hold, no harm if they overflow but they still can't hold over the limit."

"But that doesn't explain why I ran out so soon."

"That's something else," her monotone expression continued. "Changelings has the highest capacity for magic, but due to this they can only regain it through something called love. They use their magic to morph into a pony to steal love or how you do it, disguise and just gain love naturally. That takes a decent amount of magic and makes them run out about the same time as a regular pony would when rest is required. You made that whole form from scratch and imagination, that is impressive itself but also taxing on your body that it requires tremendous amount of magic."

"And why aren't you a actual professional?" I asked.

"I didn't pass a test even though I knew everything else. It costs way to much to retake for a whole quarter again so I decided to become a back alley doctor afterwards."

"This isn't a bad place, but it could be better."

"Yeah," Crisp said. "Its good enough honestly, also not many people ask for a illegal doctor nowadays."

"Why would anypony need a one in the first place?" I asked.

"Well if your "associate" was injured and the basis of hospitals is asking questions of said injuries and you wanted to keep the cause of the injury a secret, you would see me."

"You're saying that you help gangs?"

"They're more like families to be honest." Crisp corrected.

"So mafia members. That's slightly better slightly better." I continued to lie down on the mattress, fearing for my health under her care. I do start feeling slightly tired, eyes grasping. Before I knew it, I was passed out on the mattress.
