Dwayne woke up early in the morning and everybody was asleep, except for Dr. Shadow, who sat beside Dwayne to his right,

"Good news, Dwayne, Dr. Flayer, Dr. Skull, Dr. Death, and Dr. Devil managed to contact me telepathically last night, we may be able to open a portal to take you home after all." Dr. Shadow said,

"That's good, even though I like this place better than home." Dwayne replied,

"If you have the time, let's go back to where you appeared, I'm sure Twilight Sparkle will be willing to let us in." Dr. Shadow said,

"Alright, but I got work to do." Dwayne replied, and he headed out and went behind the cash register.

Dwayne stood and waited for customers, he heard Pinkie Pie yawning and stretching upstairs, she walked down shortly with Gummy on her head,

"Good morning." Pinkie Pie said,

"Morning, Pinkie Pie." Dwayne replied, Pinkie Pie ran to him,

"No, you're supposed to say the whole thing." Pinkie Pie said,

"I just did, morning." Dwayne replied,

"No, you have to say the "good" part, too." Pinkie Pie said,

"Oh, good morning, Pinkie Pie." Dwayne replied,

"Better." Pinkie Pie said happily, Dwayne just waited for his customers. The door opens and Mr. and Mrs. Cake came in, Princess Celestia was with them,

"Mr. and Mrs. Cake! What a surprise!" Pinkie Pie said happily,

"Sorry, Pinkie Pie, but we're not here to see you, we're here for Dwayne." Mr. Cake replied,

"Am I being fired?" Dwayne asked,

"Oh no, Dwayne, it's about your pay, Princess Celestia doesn't want us paying you for sometime." Mrs. Cake replied,

"Wait, no payment?" Dwayne asked,

"Yes, Dwayne, you will work, but won't be paid, you'll start getting paid again when you learn friends don't expect anything in return, also, I hope you will learn that friends are more valuable than money." Princess Celestia replied,

"Actually, I already know that." Dwayne said,

"Did your friends back at home offer you money when you were struggling, Dwayne?" Princess Celestia asked,

"No, they didn't, I had to make all the money on my own." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, well, I still want you to learn there are some things money can't buy." Princess Celestia said,

"I never bribed anyone." Dwayne replied,

"That is not what I meant, I mean for you to earn other people's trust and friendship without thinking about money." Princess Celestia said,

"Oh, okay, I'll try." Dwayne replied, Princess Celestia smiled,

"Good luck, but I'm not leaving just yet, the others will be arriving here soon, you still have to talk about the Brotherhood and Ryan." Princess Celestia said,

"I haven't forgotten, but bring Sunset Shimmer along, she'll understand the Brotherhood better than you guys." Dwayne replied,

"Don't worry, Dwayne, she's coming." Princess Celestia said, Dwayne just had a neutral expression on his face.

Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Spike, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, Princess Luna, Princess Cadence, Shining Armor, Flurry Heart, and Sunburst enter Sugarcube Corner while Mr. and Mrs. Cake left,

"Okay, Dwayne, we're here, tell us about the Brotherhood." Twilight Sparkle said,

"What would you like to know?" Dwayne asked,

"Everything, the members, their ranks, and their jobs." Rarity replied,

"Okay, but there are some jobs I doubt you guys will understand." Dwayne said,

"That's why I'm here, I can explain to them." Sunset Shimmer replied,

"I'll try to explain, too." Dwayne said,

"Hopefully, it's nothing too complicated." Princess Luna said,

"I'll try my best." Dwayne replied,

"Please start, Dwayne." Princess Cadence said,

"Alright, the Brotherhood now has forty five members, there were fifty members when I moved to Subris, they control the country, most people in my world don't know of their existence." Dwayne replied,

"What?! Don't know they exist?!" Pinkie Pie asked,

"That ain't right, if they control the country, then them citizens should know they're there." Applejack said,

"I mean they don't know of the organization, but they do know the members." Dwayne replied,

"But still, if they control the country, they should be known." Rainbow Dash said,

"Well, moving on, I'm going to let you all know now each member has a different power, some are genetically engineered to have enhanced physical capabilities, some have psychic powers, which is mainly telekinesis and telepathy, some have bio-armor, some can transform into werebeast, and some have psychic disorders, just like me." Dwayne replied, shocking everybody,

"How many of them have powers?" Fluttershy asked,

"Every single one of them." Dwayne replied,

"Well, make sure you list those, too." Shining Armor said,

"Hold on, Dwayne, do they transform into werebeast by using magic?" Sunburst asked,

"No, they're genetically engineered, too, I don't know how the transformation process works, though." Dwayne replied,

"Well, please start." Princess Celestia said,

"The Brotherhood has a junior unit for the kids, who are in school, Nigel's the only one remaining, he's Jin's nephew, and my other neighbor, he has a psychic disorder, his mental disorder is ADHD, and he has a fear of losing." Dwayne replied,

"What was his job?" Starlight Glimmer asked,

"He didn't have one, he was a student in school, he was classmates with my nephew. The remaining five members were Aaron, Thomas, Umberto, Kenny, and Gregory, they were also students, they and Nigel were kidnapped by Kane, but while Nigel made it out of his prison, the other five got killed, Aaron and Thomas were engineered humans, Umberto had a psychic disorder, also ADHD, his fear was water, and Kenny and Gregory had psychic powers." Dwayne replied,

"Anymore kids?" Rarity asked,

"Nope, that's all of them, the rest are adults." Dwayne replied,

"Well, go on." Princess Celestia said,

"Jin is the next one, he has a psychic disorder, PTSD, and a fear of being weak, he was the first member I met, the next member is Carlos, he has bio-armor, and the third member is Juan, he can transform into a were-rat." Dwayne replied,

"A were-rat?!" Rarity asked in shock,

"Yes." Dwayne replied, Rarity fainted with her front left leg on her forehead,

"All three of them were the country's border patrol rangers." Dwayne said,

"Border patrol rangers?" Rainbow Dash asked,

"It's when you're trying to enter another country, they patrol the borders of the country and make sure you have nothing illegal, and they make sure you don't sneak in." Sunset Shimmer replied,

"Oh, that's what they are." Rainbow Dash said,

"Wait a minute, this country doesn't have border patrol?" Dwayne asked,

"Actually, none of the countries do, Dwayne, as we offer friendship, everycreature is allowed to travel from country to country freely." Twilight Sparkle replied,

"Well, moving on, the next member is Eli, he has bio-armor, he's the director of the country's ATF." Dwayne said,

"Oh, sorry, guys, but I don't know that one." Sunset Shimmer said,

"Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, they investigate unlawful manufacturing of firearms and explosives, acts of arson and bombings, and illegal trafficking of alcohol and tobacco." Dwayne replied,

"We don't have that in the world I stay in." Sunset Shimmer said,

"The next member is Kevin, he has psychic powers, he's the ruler of the country, and before you ask, he's not the leader, he's one of the two second-in-commands." Dwayne replied,

"What does he do, exactly?" Princess Celestia asked,

"All of the police, military, and government organizations of Subris are under his command." Dwayne replied,

"I see, so if we go there, he's the one we'll want to speak to." Princess Luna said,

"No, sister, Dwayne just said he's a second-in-command, he's not the one to see." Princess Celestia replied,

"The next member is Theodore, he has a psychic disorder, OCD, fear of germs, he's a house cleaner, and the CEO of the country's water industry, he's one of the highest ranking members." Dwayne said,

"Wait, a water industry?" Starlight Glimmer asked,

"Yeah, my world has it, too, they offer safe and clean water to the people for them to use, the CEO is the highest rank of the industry." Sunset Shimmer replied,

"The next member is Jake, he can transform into a were-boar, he's the country's Chief-of-Police." Dwayne said,

"So, in other words, he's like captain of the guard." Sunburst replied,

"I guess you can put it that way. The next member is Douglas, he has psychic powers, he's the commanding officer of the country's entire military, and the Chairman of the country's Department of Defense." Dwayne said,

"Oh, so he's basically the general." Princess Celestia said,

"Yeah, pretty much. The next member is Darnell, he has bio-armor, he controls all of the online network in Subris, ranging from the internet, to the games, to the news, he's also the CEO of the country's computer industry." Dwayne said, Sunset Shimmer was very shocked,

"What's wrong, Sunset?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"Everything is done on the internet in my world, and if he controls all of the computers and websites back in the country Dwayne's living in back in his world, that means he pretty much controls everything." Sunset Shimmer replied,

"Another thing I forgot to mention, for each of these things in Subris, there's only one company, so one computer and laptop company, one phone company, one bank company, one restaurant chain, and so on." Dwayne said,

"Well, go on, Dwayne, tell us the next member." Princess Celestia said,

"Gus, he's engineered, he's the owner of the restaurants, so, in other words, he's my boss." Dwayne replied,

"Isn't he the person Fayley had a relationship with?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"No, that was Maurice, he was the manager of the restaurant I worked at, he paid me below minimum wage because of my PTSD, he and Fayley broke up eventually, which led to him firing her, and kicking her out of their home, so I took her in, Maurice thought I was trying to compete for her love, so he physically attacked me, I killed him in self-defense." Dwayne replied,

"Were you really after her love, Dwayne?" Princess Cadence asked,

"No, I only let her live with me after he kicked her out." Dwayne replied,

"Oh my, that is very kind of you." Fluttershy said,

"Thanks. The next member is Caleb, he has bio-armor, he's the owner of the banks in the country." Dwayne replied,

"What's a bank?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"It's a place where you store your money for later use." Sunset Shimmer replied,

"The next member is Samuel, he's engineered, he's the CEO of the only store company in the country." Dwayne said,

"Wait a minute, y'all only have one type of store?" Applejack asked,

"Yeah, it's a superstore." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, okay, that makes sense, that means almost everything you want to buy is in that store." Sunset Shimmer said, the ponies and Spike smiled,

"That's actually very convenient." Spike said, the others agreed,

"The next member is Fabien, he transforms into a were-eagle, he's the School and Education Director, Subris only has ten areas to learn, a private elementary school, a public elementary school, a private middle school, a public middle school, a private high school, a public high school, a private college, a public college, a private university, and a public university, he controls what they teach in school for every subject, along with when schools start and end." Dwayne said,

"Turning into a were-eagle sounds really cool." Rainbow Dash said, Dwayne chuckled,

"Basically putting it, he's the Chancellor Neighsay of Dwayne's world." Princess Celestia said,

"He wasn't racist, was he, Dwayne?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"Nope, he was very friendly and reasonable." Dwayne replied,

"Who's the next member, Dwayne?" Princess Luna asked,

"Herbert, he has psychic powers, he's the country's FBI Director." Dwayne replied,

"FBI is another law enforcement organization, they do a lot of things." Sunset Shimmer said,

"The next member is Jimmy, he has bio-armor, he's the country CIA Director." Dwayne said,

"The CIA analyzes other countries to see which one's a threat, and which ones aren't, that's all I know about them." Sunset Shimmer said,

"After him is Wayne, he transforms into a were-fish, he's the country's NSA Director." Dwayne said,

"Oh, I know the NSA, they protect networks and information in a country." Sunset Shimmer said, Dwayne smiled at how much knowledge Sunset Shimmer had,

"Joseph is next, he transforms into a were-stingray, he's the country's SWAT Director." Dwayne said,

"SWAT is a paramilitary group, they handle riot controls." Sunset Shimmer said,

"Well, we've never had a riot in this country, this SWAT sounds a bit unnecessary, though." Twilight Sparkle replied,

"Tyler is the next member, he has a psychic disorder, PTSD, fear of getting burned, he's the country's firefighter chief." Dwayne said,

"My, that's a splendid idea, we should have firefighters of our own." Rarity said,

"I agree, I can fly around with the raincloud and douse fires out." Rainbow Dash replied,

"The next guy's name is Jason, he has bio-armor, he's the Chief Doctor and Chairman of Medical Staff, everybody in the medical field in Subris works under him, he's also a very high ranking member." Dwayne said,

"That don't sound good to me, that sounds like someone you don't wanna be enemies with." Applejack said,

"Daryl is the next member, he has psychic powers, he's the Supreme Judge of Subris." Dwayne said,

"That would be me in this world, I handle trials in Equestria." Princess Celestia said,

"Jacques is the next guy, he transforms into a werewolf, he's the Director of Prosecutors in Subris." Dwayne said,

"We don't have prosecutors in this world." Princess Luna said,

"The next member is Clarence, he transforms into a were-crow, he's the Defense Attorney General in Subris." Dwayne said,

"We don't have defense attorneys, either." Princess Cadence said,

"Arthur is the next guy, he transforms into a were-jaguar, he's the country's Journalism Publisher, all of the newspapers and what they say are modified by him." Dwayne said,

"Were-jaguar, that sounds awesome!" Rainbow Dash said,

"Yes, but jaguars can be very aggressive, Rainbow Dash, a lot of people are scared of them." Fluttershy replied,

"James is the next member, he's engineered, he's the country's ICE Director." Dwayne said,

"I don't know that one." Sunset Shimmer said,

"Explain what the ICE is, Dwayne." Sunburst said,

"Basically, they investigate immigrants and their customs, and determine if they're okay or not, that's only the surface, they do a lot of things." Dwayne replied,

"So, who's next?" Shining Armor asked,

"That would be Steve, he's engineered, he's the country's DEA Director." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, I know them, they deal with drug smuggling, Canterlot High is investigated by them every once in a while." Sunset Shimmer said,

"The next guy is Frances, he has bio-armor, he's the country's Secretary of Labor." Dwayne said,

"What is that?" Starlight Glimmer asked,

"The head of the Department of Labor, they manage wage, hours of working, unemployed benefits, reemployment services, and economic statistics, the reason why I work for a certain amount of time at home is because they set it to be like that." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, so they control how long people work at their jobs, I usually handle that in this world." Princess Celestia said,

"Alexander is the next member, he has bio-armor, he's the country's Secretary of the Treasury, he controls the money of the country." Dwayne said,

"Oh, that's usually my job, too." Princess Celestia replied,

"The next guy is Harry, he changes to a were-tiger, he's the leader of the country's biker gang." Dwayne said,

"Oh, were-tiger sounds awesome, too!" Rainbow Dash said,

"Wait, did you say he's a leader of gang? As in a criminal gang?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"Yeah." Dwayne replied,

"What? They have criminals, too?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"Only a few." Dwayne replied,

"What exactly is a biker?" Starlight Glimmer asked,

"Someone who rides a motorcycle, it's a two wheeled motor vehicle, I've rode one, myself." Sunset Shimmer replied,

"*sigh* please continue, Dwayne." Princess Celestia said,

"Damon is the next member, he changes to a were-lion, he's the leader of the country's street gang." Dwayne replied,

"Ooh, were-lion's cool, too." Rainbow Dash said,

"Another criminal?" Applejack asked,

"Yeah, there's four more." Dwayne replied,

"Then go on and list them." Princess Luna said,

"The next member is Victor, he transforms into a were-trilobite, he's the leader of the country's prison gang." Dwayne replied, shocking everyone,

"What?! A prison gang?!" Spike asked,

"There's a lot on my world, but Subris only has one." Dwayne replied,

"Wait, what in tarnation is a trilobite?" Applejack asked,

"You guys never heard of them?" Dwayne asked,

"No, we don't have an animal like that in this world." Fluttershy replied,

"It's an ancient animal, with a very tough shell, and many legs." Dwayne said,

"Next member." Princess Luna said,

"Esteban, bio-armor, leader of the country's cartel." Dwayne replied,

"Next." Princess Celestia said,

"Ivan, bio-armor, leader of the country's mafia." Dwayne replied,

"Next." Sunburst said,

"Felix, psychic powers, controls every single criminal in the country, he's the other second-in-command." Dwayne replied,

"Hold yer horses! Did ya just say all of the criminals work under him?" Applejack asked,

"Yup, the leaders of each gang answers to him as well." Dwayne replied,

"So, they have one second-in-command that controls the entire government, and another one that controls all of the criminals, this organization sounds very dangerous." Princess Celestia said,

"Anyway, the next member is Kenji, he transforms into a were-shark, he's the CEO of the country's fishing industry." Dwayne said,

"Uh, Dwayne, sharks scare me." Fluttershy said,

"I don't blame you, the Gummy from my world was a shark with a psychic disorder." Dwayne replied,

"Still, catching fish to eat is something I'm not fond of." Sunset Shimmer said,

"Okay, well, anyway, the next member is Ray, he has bio-armor, he's the CEO of the country's construction industry." Dwayne said,

"What kind of construction?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"They build all of the architecture, Twilight." Sunset Shimmer replied,

"Oh my, he must be very busy." Rarity said,

"He is, the next member is Danny, he has bio-armor, he's the CEO of the country's energy industry." Dwayne said,

"Energy industry?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"You know, like how all of the lights and technology work in my world, they provide us the fuel needed to operate them." Sunset Shimmer replied,

"Oh." Twilight Sparkle said,

"Moving on, next guy is Ramon, he has a psychic disorder, GAD, fear of failure, he's the CEO of the country's entertainment industry." Dwayne said,

"What's GAD?" Rainbow Dash asked,

"Generalized Anxiety Disorder, more worry than usual, it's understandable since he has to please other people." Princess Celestia replied,

"Next guy is Wolfgang, he has a psychic disorder, APD, fear of going deaf, he's the CEO of the country's music industry." Dwayne said,

"APD?" Rainbow Dash asked,

"Hold on, let me get my book." Twilight Sparkle replied, and she teleported out, and came back with the book, it was open,

"Here it is, auditory processing disorder, affects the brain's hearing system." Twilight Sparkle said,

"Ooh, he and I can make music together." Pinkie Pie replied,

"That sounds like a wonderful idea, Pinkie Pie, but we have to let Dwayne continue." Princess Celestia said,

"Anthony is the next guy, he has bio-armor, he's the CEO of the country's fashion industry." Dwayne said,

"Well, tell him to make up some new ideas, so far, everybody I've seen from Dwayne's world wears black." Rarity said,

"I agree, I looked at Dwayne's memories, a lot of people actually wear black." Sunset Shimmer replied,

"Sorry about that, but black is a very popular color back in my world." Dwayne said while smiling and scratching the back of his head with his left hand,

"Is red the second most popular color?" Starlight Glimmer asked,

"No, it's either dark blue or dark gray." Dwayne replied,

"They're almost black themselves." Pinkie Pie said,

"As I said, dark colors are extremely popular, especially black." Dwayne replied,

"Well, if they do come here, tell them to rethink their fashion, and to add diversity in color, there is no way I can operate Rarity For You if all of my clothes were one color." Rarity said,

"Rarity, please, Dwayne has to move on." Princess Cadence replied,

"The next member is Vincent, he has a psychic disorder, schizophrenia, fears of going blind and losing his talent, he's the CEO of the country's art industry." Dwayne said, Twilight Sparkle flips through her book,

"Let's see here, schizophrenia. Here it is, failure to understand reality." Twilight Sparkle said,

"That doesn't sound good to me." Princess Luna replied,

"He's a surreal painter." Dwayne said,

"That would explain a lot." Sunburst replied,

"How many more members are there, Dwayne?" Princess Celestia asked,

"Four more, the next one's Rex, he has a psychic disorder, alcohol dependence, fears of death and going overdose, he's the CEO of the country's alcohol industry." Dwayne replied,

"Alcohol industry?!" everybody except Flurry Heart asked in shock,

"Yes, my world has an industry for importing and exporting alcohol." Dwayne replied, shocking everyone,

"What's the next one?" Princess Luna asked,

"Ali, he's also engineered, he's the CEO of the country's tobacco industry." Dwayne said, confusing everyone except Sunset Shimmer,

"Uh, what's tobacco?" Spike asked,

"Guys, let's not talk about it, it's just as bad as alcohol." Sunset Shimmer replied, shocking everyone again, they all look at Dwayne with disapproval,

"Anyway, the next member is Chucky, he has a psychic disorder, paranoia, fear of death, he's the CEO of the country's weapons industry." Dwayne said, horrifying everyone,

"W... weapons industry?!" Rarity asked,

"Yeah, the Brotherhood also does trade in weapons." Dwayne replied,

"That is very unacceptable, Dwayne, only law enforcement should have weapons." Princess Celestia said,

"Well, citizens can have weapons back in my world, too." Dwayne replied,

"Why?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"Home defense." Dwayne replied,

"Well, can't argue with that." Rainbow Dash said,

"Who's the next member?" Applejack asked,

"Last one, Henry, he has psychic powers, he handles the trade and relations Subris has to foreign countries, he's the leader of the Brotherhood." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, I remember him, you called him back in my world." Sunset Shimmer said,

"Yeah, that was him." Dwayne replied,

"Wow, that's a mighty big organization." Applejack said,

"There's more, there's also the ex-members, there's only five I know of, the first one is Allen, he's just a regular police officer, detective, the next one is Galen, he's the head of the country's mob, he and my parents knew one another, the next ex-member is Roscoe, he's the country's pope, all of the churches in the country serve under him, and by coincidence, all three of them have bio-armor, the next one is Bruce, he was Jin's old partner in the old days of the Brotherhood, they were the two best assassins, he changes into a were-fly, he lives in Koroca, I don't know what he does now, and the last member is Zack, he's providing care to orphanages and animal shelters in Koroca, he changes into a were-frog." Dwayne replied,

"Do they actively help them?" Princess Cadence asked,

"Sometimes, they're still informants to the organization." Dwayne replied,

"Dwayne, now that's out of the way, but it sounds like your world is male dominated." Princess Celestia said,

"This world seems to be female dominated." Dwayne replied,

"It's not, Dwayne, I'm royalty, too." Shining Armor said,

"Hey, yeah, it does sound male dominated, first psychic disorders only for males, now, an all-male organization controlling a country." Pinkie Pie replied,

"That's not fair, Dwayne, you guys can at least allow females in it, too." Twilight Sparkle said,

"That's what the Sisterhood is for." Dwayne replied, surprising everybody,

"Wait, there's a Sisterhood?" Sunburst asked,

"Used to be, they left and disbanded because its members got pregnant, and it was so they could raise their children." Dwayne replied,

"Who were their husbands?" Rarity asked,

"Members of the Brotherhood." Dwayne replied,

"Was there competition between the two?" Rainbow Dash asked,

"No, the two organizations worked together." Dwayne replied, the ponies and Spike murmur with satisfaction,

"Now, last, but not least, tell us about Ryan, Dwayne." Princess Celestia said,

"There's really nothing more to him, you all already heard everything about him." Dwayne replied,

"But did he have any effects later in your life?" Princess Luna asked, Dwayne looked down with his eyes closed, he exhaled through his nose and looked forward again with his eyes open,

"Exactly six months before I got transferred here, I saw the news that he has gone missing, he was missing for a week when that info got out, I cried for the first time in many years when I saw it." Dwayne said, everyone had sympathetic faces,

"Did anything else happen?" Shining Armor asked,

"Shortly after my sister died, I got visited by a girl named Amber, I found out she was Ryan's girlfriend when they were in high school, she said Ryan had pictures and notes about me all the time, so she tracked me down to make sure I was alright." Dwayne replied,

"Have you two stayed in touch?" Twilight Sparkle asked,

"No, she just came to check on me that one time." Dwayne replied,

"I see, well, Dwayne, that's all I wanted to know, have fun at work." Princess Celestia said, and everybody except Pinkie Pie left.

Dwayne works and was not paid, he did not mind since if he does get back to his world, the bits will not be useful. Pinkie Pie left suddenly a few minutes ago, she soon comes back with a mare in a frock, the two walk to Dwayne,

"Dwayne, meet my big sister, Maud." Pinkie Pie said,

"Hello, Dwayne." Maud Pie said in a stoic and deadpan tone,

"Hey, Maud." Dwayne replied,

"Pinkie has said a lot of good things about you, and she wanted me to meet you." Maud Pie said, Dwayne looks at her since he noticed something familiar about her way of speaking,

"You remind me of Jin." Dwayne said,

"No, Dwayne, Maud is nothing like Jin." Pinkie Pie replied as she hugged Maud Pie,

"Well, in her way of speaking, she is." Dwayne said,

"Dwayne, I am nothing like Jin, you said he was emotionless, right?" Maud Pie asked,

"Yes, it made him ruthless, there were no lines he would not cross, and he had no regrets." Dwayne replied,

"See, I, on the other hoof, do have emotions, I just don't show them." Maud Pie said,

"Oh, okay, Jin didn't show emotions because he couldn't feel them." Dwayne replied,

"As proof that Maud has feelings, she's actually here to buy a gift for her boyfriend." Pinkie Pie said,

"What would you like?" Dwayne asked,

"A simple piece of candy will do." Maud Pie replied, and Dwayne just gave her peppermint candy,

"Thank you." Maud Pie said, and she left,

"Wow, you actually took her well, most ponies can't stand her." Pinkie Pie said,

"That's because Jin speaks just like her, and his tone and expressions never change." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, so you're used to it, we have to get to work now, rush hour is about to start." Pinkie Pie said, and she dashed to the kitchen.

Customers pour in and order huge amounts of pastries since everything was free due to Princess Celestia wanting Dwayne to learn a lesson, which he was not learning,

"Dwayne! I need help!" Pinkie Pie said,

"With what, exactly?" Dwayne asked,

"I need these pastries baked, it's taking a long time!" Pinkie Pie replied,

"I'm sorry, Pinkie Pie, but I don't know how to bake." Dwayne said,

"But, Dwayne, friends don't ask for anything in return!" Pinkie Pie said,

"I'm not asking for anything in return, I'm saying that I don't know how to make those." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, well, can you at least help me with the toppings?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"I'll see what I can do." Dwayne replied, and he ran to the kitchen.

He made the toppings as fast as he could while angry customers waited, he ran out as fast as he could and served the orders. Dwayne was not tired due to his powers, neither was Pinkie Pie due to her own ways of getting things done. The two move at rapid speed and finish rush hour,

"Phew, I thought we weren't going to make it." Pinkie Pie said,

"Neither did I." Dwayne replied,

"Now, Dwayne, remember, don't expect anything in return, friends always help friends, asking for nothing." Pinkie Pie said,

"I'll keep that in mind, in my world, one way to get people to help you is to pay them money." Dwayne replied,

"No, Dwayne, that's still bribery, and bribery is bad." Pinkie Pie said,

"We only call it bribery when we pay law enforcement to look over a crime." Dwayne replied,

"You didn't bribe the Brotherhood, did you?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"Nope, the money Dr. Shadow paid me for my assassin jobs actually came from them." Dwayne replied,

"What?!" Pinkie Pie asked with shock,

"It's the truth, the money Dr. Shadow paid me came from them, with Jin being the middle-man between Dr. Shadow and the Brotherhood, Dr. Shadow and Henry are good friends with one another, Dr. Shadow couldn't go out in the public because his reputation of being a good doctor was destroyed by the leader of the Psychics back in 2002, he spread false rumors of Dr. Shadow taking sacrifices and performing witchcraft, while he had his actual patients killed, Dr. Shadow's reputation was destroyed, and he had go into hiding so people wouldn't try to kill him." Dwayne explained, Pinkie Pie was bewildered,

"I also heard a Dr. Flayer, Dr. Skull, Dr. Death, and Dr. Devil this morning." Pinkie Pie said,

"They're Dr. Shadow's partners, Dr. Flayer's a surgeon, Dr. Skull treats the wounded, Dr. Death treats the sick, and Dr. Devil's a counselor." Dwayne replied,

"Who are they?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"Dr. Shadow, Dr. Flayer, Dr. Skull, Dr. Death, and Dr. Devil all make up a group called the Pentagram of the Doctors, they were well respected and saved many lives before the leader of the Psychics destroyed their reputation, so they had to go into hiding, they are ranked, Dr. Shadow's the lowest ranking member, Dr. Flayer's the second lowest, Dr. Skull's in the middle, Dr. Death's the second-in-command, and Dr. Devil's the leader." Dwayne replied,

"I thought Dr. Shadow would be the leader, considering his age." Pinkie Pie said,

"About that, Pinkie Pie, out of those five, Dr. Shadow's the youngest one." Dwayne said, Pinkie Pie was extremely shocked,

"Wwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaattttttt?!" Pinkie Pie asked with her mouth and eyes wide open,

"So, let me get this straight, Dr. Shadow is at least six thousand years old, and out of all of them..." Pinkie Pie said,

"He's the youngest one." Dwayne replied, Pinkie Pie was too shocked to comprehend the information,

"This is a bit nitpicky of me, Pinkie Pie, but can you please not make gestures with your hands or hooves when you speak? I find those to be very annoying." Dwayne said, Pinkie Pie understood Dwayne a bit better there, because whenever he spoke, he never moved his arms around or made gestures with his hands, they were always by his sides,

"Well, I can try, but it'll be hard, all of my friends do it, too. Oh, look at the time, it's time for the afternoon shift, you can go ahead and finish for today, Dwayne, I can handle the rest of the day, thanks for your help." Pinkie Pie said,

"Alright, bye, Pinkie Pie." Dwayne replied as he walked out,

"Bye." Pinkie Pie said with a smile on her face while she took over the register and Dwayne walked out.

Dwayne headed outside and saw everypony getting on with their days, a black shadowy mass appeared in front of him, it disappeared and Dr. Shadow was in front of him,

"Let's go to where you entered this world from, Dwayne." Dr. Shadow said,

"This way." Dwayne replied, and the two go to the castle.

Dwayne shows the area where he arrived when Twilight Sparkle brought him by mistake,

"Hmm, we might be able to open a portal, but it'll be weak, and once when I go through, it can't be reopened, our magic can just barely reach when we make it." Dr. Shadow said,

"So, what do we do?" Dwayne asked,

"We wait, and if you feel like it, we can still practice with your psychic disorder." Dr. Shadow replied,

"Uh, about that." Dwayne said,

"Dwayne, remember, I can see and hear every single event that goes on in the world at once, I already know the ponies have a spell to deactivate your powers." Dr. Shadow replied,

"Can't you override it with your magic?" Dwayne asked,

"I can try, but it will cause them to try to make a stronger version." Dr. Shadow replied, Dwayne realized Dr. Shadow had a point,

"I guess the only way to pass it is with an artificial psychic disorder." Dwayne said,

"That sounds right, if they try to cast the spell on someone with an artificial psychic disorder, it should make them stronger instead of disabling their powers." Dr. Shadow replied, he then says "Transform, I wish to see how powerful you are in this world, no powers, Dwayne, just your physical capabilities."

Dwayne growls while he remembers his painful memories, he screams and his eyes glow light blue, he changes into his disorder form.

Dwayne lunges towards Dr. Shadow while snarling loudly, he tries to scratch Dr. Shadow with his metal gloves, Dr. Shadow moved his arms around to make black trails appear behind his hands, they blocked Dwayne's attacks. Dwayne teleports to behind Dr. Shadow to attack, but Dr. Shadow teleported away, Dwayne lunges towards Dr. Shadow again while growling, but Dr. Shadow uses his magic to make a light blue shield appear around him, it blocks Dwayne completely, since none of his moves could get past the shield, Dr. Shadow's eyes then turn red, Dwayne grunts several times and soon began grunting loudly as his pieces of armor came apart, he grunts since it was painful. Dr. Shadow stops and walks over to Dwayne, he touches his forehead with his right hand and heals him completely,

"Not bad, Dwayne, but you're still not as strong as you are back in our world." Dr. Shadow said,

"It's because I really don't have much to be stressed out about in this world, I actually like this world better than our world." Dwayne replied,

"I'm not surprised, you have a lot of things to be angry about." Dr. Shadow said,

"Actually, Dr. Shadow, I'm more sad than angry." Dwayne replied,

"I know, Dwayne, I can sense it, I am glad to see how much you have grown to accept your powers." Dr. Shadow said,

"I guess I have you to thank for being my mentor." Dwayne replied, Dr. Shadow did not respond, he was stoic and silent,

"Dr. Shadow." Twilight Sparkle said, Dwayne turned around and saw her walking over with Princess Celestia,

"Princess Celestia, this is my mentor, she wants to speak with you." Twilight Sparkle said,

"Uh, yes, Dr. Shadow, it's about Dwayne's powers." Princess Celestia said,

"What of it?" Dr. Shadow asked,

"I understand that Dwayne's powers come from his painful memories, I was hoping we could change it so his powers come from his happy memories instead." Princess Celestia replied,

"A psychic disorder is hard to change, my associates and I have not been able to alter it back at home, we have tried using magic and science." Dr. Shadow said,

"Have you been able to change the disease back to its normal form, when it could affect both genders?" Princess Celestia asked,

"We're trying, but it's proven to be very difficult, reverse engineering the disorder disease has been very tough, magic was completely useless, so we're using science, the technology humans have is not advanced enough, so we're using extraterrestrial technology." Dr. Shadow replied,

"Extraterrestrial?" Princess Celestia asked,

"Yes, my and Dwayne's world has life on other planets, the technology that was used to create artificial psychic disorders, and the glands to keep people alive after having their mutations removed were created with extraterrestrial technology, the leader of the Psychics stole it from a research facility from another planet, and killed every research member in the process." Dr. Shadow replied, Twilight Sparkle had a very surprised face,

"Well, since it seems I won't get much more information on Dwayne's powers, I would like to know what kind of magic you have." Princess Celestia said,

"Telekinesis, teleporting, and telepathy are the ones I use the most." Dr. Shadow replied,

"I saw you create a shield against Dwayne a few minutes ago." Twilight Sparkle said,

"That's another one of my magic moves, I also create black trails with my hands, they act as shields as well." Dr. Shadow replied,

"What about that magic attack you used on Dwayne?" Princess Celestia asked,

"My main offensive magic attack, I tear people apart with my mind." Dr. Shadow replied, he then says "I also can see and hear everything that goes on in this world at once."

"I noticed that, I can feel your presence, I'm going to ask you kindly to stop, it is an invasion of privacy." Princess Celestia said, Dr. Shadow just looked at her stoically, but his face could not be seen due to his mask, Twilight Sparkle and Princess Celestia sensed that Dr. Shadow was actually much more powerful than he let on,

"If possible, I was hoping we could use our magic together to alter Dwayne's powers, so he can stop having nightmares." Princess Celestia said,

"Let's try it." Dr. Shadow replied, and the two try using their magic together, Princess Celestia's horn had an aura around it, while Dr. Shadow had nothing on him. Dwayne grunted and stumbled, the two tire out and see no change, Twilight Sparkle was shocked, not even Princess Celestia's magic could change Dwayne's powers,

"*pant* *pant* this is something beyond even me, we can't change it, Dwayne." Princess Celestia said, Dwayne did not mind, but he did appreciate she was trying to get rid of his nightmares,

"It's almost dark, let's rest." Princess Celestia said, and Dwayne teleported to Sugarcube Corner, he changed back to normal and slept in the bed.

Dwayne was having a nightmare and saw he was in Koroca, since he noticed the brown ground, mud, and trees around him, they were thin but tall.

Dwayne hears children screaming to his right and looks, he saw an orphanage, he realized what the flashback was, Zane was attacking parentless children in order to satisfy his hunger. Dwayne ran to the orphanage and burst in through the back door, he saw children screaming and in pain, Dwayne senses the children and realized they did not have psychic disorders, and thus, had no powers whatsoever, each child was around four or five years old. Dwayne sees a child fly towards him while he was screaming, he ducks and the child hits the wall, he falls and cries, Dwayne runs to him and saw he had scratch wounds on his abdomen. Dwayne looked back and saw Zane running to the kids, they all get behind Dwayne, Zane stopped running and saw Dwayne,

"So, you're here, too, Dwayne, I don't have to hold back then." Zane said,

"What are you doing?!" Dwayne asked,

"Simple, these brats saw me doing work for my god, therefore, they must die." Zane replied, the children screamed in terror, Zane then took a brain out of his right trouser pocket and bit a piece of it off, he chews it while putting the brain back into his pocket. Zane swallows it and he transforms, his arms and legs were longer, Zane had black claws for his fingernails, thumbnails, and toenails, big, white, canine teeth for each tooth, red, slanted, monochromatic eyes, two black horns on his head, the front of his neck, chest, abdomen, and groin areas were dark yellow, while the rest of his body was a dark greenish-brown color.

The children screamed in horror at what they saw,

"See, kids, this is why I'm superior, I have powers, you all don't, prepare to die." Zane said in a raspy and snarling voice, he jumps forward while snarling, Dwayne lets his painful memories flood his mind and ice and water appeared around him, the children backed away, out of the orphanage, the ice and water disappear, and they see Dwayne has transformed as well.

Zane tries to jump over Dwayne, but he grabs his feet, only for Zane to do a backflip and make Dwayne go through the air, he smashes Dwayne into the wooden floor, and he grunts. Zane jumps out of the orphanage's back door while snarling, he lands on one child and she screams, Zane bites into the back of her neck, killing her. Dwayne got up and teleported outside, he saw Zane tackle a boy, he pulls the boy's arms back and dislodges them, the boy cries and screams in agony, Dwayne teleports to Zane, but he has already bitten into the back of the boy's head and killed him, eating him in the process, Dwayne tries to attack Zane, but Zane hits him with the back of his right hand, Dwayne grunts when he fell onto the ground while the kids watch him. Zane jumped up and was about to sink his claws into another child, the children run away screaming,

"NNNNNNNOOOOOO!!" Rainbow Dash said as she flew into Dwayne's dream and rescued the kids, doing the sonic rainboom in the process, a light blue beam hits Zane and he grunts while he is shot back.

Dwayne stands up and looks back, he saw Princess Luna appear, she lands beside Dwayne to his right, Zane got back up,

"Well, look at that, someone else for me to kill." Zane said while smiling,

"YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF!! HOW DARE YOU USE YOUR POWERS TO HURT DEFENSELESS CHILDREN!!" Princess Luna yelled angrily with her Royal Canterlot Voice, lightning appeared above her as well. Dwayne hears more noises and saw the ponies he has met enter his dream, they all line up with Dwayne,

"Stay out of the way, Dwayne, I have kids to kill." Zane said,

"Oh no, you stay away from 'em!" Applejack said angrily,

"Yeah! Pick on someone your own size!" Rainbow Dash said angrily,

"Killing the weak and defenseless is more fun." Zane replied, horrifying everybody except Dwayne. Zane sees the kids behind Dwayne and the ponies and Spike, he jumps over them while snarling, they turn around and see him going towards the kids,

"*gasp* the children!" Pinkie Pie said,

"Quick, get them to safety." Princess Celestia said, and everybody went to them.

Dwayne teleported to Zane and tackled him from his right blind spot, Zane grunts and he falls onto the ground, he gets up and he and Dwayne get into a fight, Zane's slaps and punches sent Dwayne flying into the air, he hit a tree every time, but Dwayne teleported back each time to distract Zane. Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, Sunburst, Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna fire beams from their horns at Zane, since it was a dream, the spell to turn off the psychic disorder will not work. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Big Macintosh, Granny Smith, Spike, Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Cheerilee, Derpy, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, and many others get the children out of Dwayne's dream while Shining Armor and Princess Cadence stood in front of them and watched the others. Dwayne gets hit again and Zane sees the kids, he jumps into the sky and was going towards the children, they look and scream in terror when they see him coming, Shining Armor and Princess Cadence cast a spell together and make a shield appear, Zane could not penetrate it.

The princesses, Rarity, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, and Sunburst continue firing beams at Zane, it was doing nothing, Dwayne was about to teleport to Zane, but someone tackles Zane from his right blind spot, Zane grunts as he went through the air, he was thrown onto the ground and the person landed beside Dwayne to his left,

"Alex!" Dwayne said, Alex looked like a walking skeleton, with red muscles inside the spaces of the bones, skeletal wings, and he was wearing black leather pants, he had two mandibles between his upper and lower jaws, they were completely straight, Zane stood up and saw Alex,

"I remember you, Alex, how has your dead wife and son been?" Zane asked, Alex growled,

"My wife died because of you Psychics!" Alex replied angrily, Dwayne was ready to fight as well,

"Where are the kids, Dwayne?" Alex asked,

"Behind us, Zane already killed two of them." Dwayne replied,

"Yes, and their flesh tasted good." Zane said, causing the ponies to look at him with disgust,

"Oh well, I'll just have to kill you guys as well." Zane said, and he lunged forward while letting out a battle cry.

Alex grabbed Zane's hands and stopped him mid-motion, the two wrestled while the others got the children away, Zane sees the children running away, he throws Alex over his head, but Alex uses his wings to fly in the air. Zane runs to the children, but an orange blast is shot at his feet, everybody looks and they saw a person who looked human, but he was covered from head to toe in what appeared to be silver futuristic armor, with a black rectangular visor over his eyes, worn like glasses,

"Freeze!" the person said, Zane groaned in disappointment and jumped away, fleeing from the others. Everybody stops and looks at the remaining kids,

"Is everyone alright?" Twilight Sparkle asked, the children nod, Dwayne and Alex go to them, they scream at seeing the man in the silver armor,

"Everyone, relax, he's with us." Dwayne said, the children stopped screaming in terror and looked at him,

"My name's Shugoth, I'm a detective working for the interplanetary police." the person said,

"Interplanetary police?" Rainbow Dash asked,

"Yes, some research equipment from another planet was stolen and its scientists were killed, they were being used to study psychic disorders, my files say the culprit is on this planet." Shugoth replied,

"I'm Princess Celestia, ruler of Equestria, if you want, I can have my guards help you." Princess Celestia said,

"I'm fine right now, but I'll consider it." Shugoth replied, Princess Celestia smiled,

"You going to help us, Shugoth?" Dwayne asked,

"No, get the kids to safety, I'm going to go after him." Shugoth replied,

"Be careful." Twilight Sparkle said,

"I will." Shugoth replied, and he ran after Zane.

Dwayne's dream changes and he was no longer in his disorder form, Dwayne saw he was in a desert, he realized he was in Jazca, there was nothing but sand around him. Dwayne remembered the event, it was when he fought Vladimir, another member of the Psychics, he looks forward and saw a boy running, it was Jose, a boy he encountered several times when fighting the Psychics. Jose keeps running and saw Dwayne,

"Dwayne!" Jose said loudly, Dwayne looks and saw Vladimir chasing Jose. Jose gets to Dwayne and stands behind him, Vladimir stopped in his tracks,

"So you're here, too, the man who has killed several of our number, let's see how you do against a robotic bird like me." and he jumps into the air. Vladimir holds his arms out and spreads his legs a little, he transforms into a giant robotic bird that was silver with black linings, he had a hooked beak, talons, and robotic feathers, his eyes were completely black, and did not light up.

Vladimir flies down to them and tries to attack them with his talons, Dwayne quickly transforms and teleports away with Jose in his right hand. Vladimir flies to them and he was almost as fast as a peregrine falcon, he flies to them and shoots fire out of his mouth, Dwayne shoots ice and water out of his hands to cancel it out. Dwayne sees Vladimir was not there, he looks around and sees Vladimir dive down, he goes past Dwayne and grabs Jose with his talons, he screamed as he was lifted into the air,

"Dwayne! Help!" Jose said as Vladimir flew into the sky, Dwayne quickly teleports but did not go far, he managed to grab onto the feathers that made up Vladimir's tail. Dwayne was having trouble staying on since Vladimir was fast, he looks and sees Vladimir was heading to a body of water full of hippopotamuses, he realized Vladimir was planning to drop Jose into the water.

Dwayne tries to go forward by grabbing the part of Vladimir in front of him with his right hand, but he grunted when he realized the feathers were as sharp as razor blades, he hardened his armor but the feathers still hurt, he endured it and crawled forward, ignoring the great pain. Noises are heard from behind and the three looked back, they saw Rainbow Dash was flying towards them, she was catching up. Vladimir flew as fast as he could while Rainbow Dash gained speed,

"Just a little closer." Rainbow Dash said as she flew towards Vladimir's talons, she got to them and grabbed onto Jose, attempting to free him, but could not. Dwayne crawled on top of Vladimir and then grabbed onto his right talon, he grabs Jose and tries to free him, but could not. Vladimir arrives at the water body and drops Jose, he screams,

"NO!!" Rainbow Dash yelled as Dwayne and Jose fell. A lasso is thrown and wraps around the two, they were pulled away from the body of water, they saw Applejack with the lasso in her mouth, the others went to them. Vladimir let out a screech and flew towards them, Twilight Sparkle and Rarity shot beams out of their horns, it did nothing. Vladimir shoots more fire out of his mouth at the others, Spike tried using his fire breath, but it was too weak, and went out immediately. The sun glows and everyone saw Princess Celestia, she shoots a big blast of fire out of her horn, she and Vladimir enter a deadlock, Princess Luna also entered and shot a beam at Vladimir, powered by her anger by the fact that Jose was a little kid, and Vladimir was a fully grown adult, she was also angry that Vladimir was using his power to hurt someone who had no powers. Vladimir got hit and he screeches, his fire extinguishes and Princess Celestia's fire blast hits him, he screeches while he exploded.

Everybody went to Dwayne and Jose,

"You okay, buddy?" Rainbow Dash asked,

"Yeah, that is the second one to come after me." Jose replied,

"Remember what I said, Jose, go into hiding, because if they find out you're still alive, even more will come after you." Dwayne said,

"Yeah, I haven't forgotten, I'll make sure to go into hiding." Jose replied, and he ran away.

Dwayne's dream changes again and he was back in his human form, he noticed he was at a factory, he was in Dunland, even though the country is mostly just flat fields and farms, he noticed it was his battle with Arnold, one of the strongest members, he ran to where he fought him. Dwayne saw the couple running and were running away from Arnold,

"Where's our son?" the man asked, the woman looked around frantically and exclaimed in shock when she noticed their son was missing,

"Looking for this kid?" Arnold asked from behind, he was holding a boy,

"Help! Mom! Dad!" the boy said, the woman exclaimed in shock when she saw her son was held captive. Dwayne jumped down and landed in front of the couple,

"Let the child go." Dwayne said,

"Dwayne, I knew you would come, now that I have drawn you out, it's time for your death." Arnold said, and a ringing sound was heard in his head, he grunts while holding onto the boy, he falls onto the ground with the boy under him,

"My baby!" the woman said, Arnold's body turns yellow-green and the boy screams in pain, the couple becomes horrified when they see the yellow-green substance melt whatever it touched,

"Oh my god, he changed into acid! He has a psychic disorder!" the man said, the acid comes together and forms into a humanoid form, the boy was inside Arnold's torso,

"Yes, now that you know, you must die." Arnold said, and he shoots acid out of his hands, the couple becomes scared, Dwayne screams and transforms, ice and water formed around him and it canceled out the acid, they disappear and Dwayne has transformed, the couple was in awe,

"No way, he has a psychic disorder, too." the man said, Dwayne lunges towards Arnold while snarling, he tries to grab the boy but he grunts when the acid got on him, it hurt and burned his armor, the boy screamed in agony while the acid burned the boy's body,

"Help!" the boy cried out, Dwayne tried to focus on the boy first, he makes shields of ice and water around him and tries to grab the boy, but Arnold's body of acid melts the ice away, and the water did not help, Dwayne grunted as he jumped back. The ponies and Spike enter Dwayne's dream again to help him, Pinkie Pie and Maud Pie tried to punch into Arnold's body to get the boy, but the acid burned them, they jumped back while Pinkie Pie screamed,

"What is he made out of?!" Rainbow Dash asked,

"Acid." Dwayne replied,

"Be careful, we'll get burned to death if we enter his body." Sunset Shimmer said,

"But what about the kid?" Pinkie Pie asked,

"I'm thinking of a plan, Applejack's lasso's not going to help, we have to find a way in." Twilight Sparkle replied, Arnold then grunted and fell from behind, everybody looks and they saw someone come out of Arnold's body with the boy, they realized it was Alex, he was in his disorder form. Alex flies to the couple and gives them their child,

"Thank you." the man said, Arnold shoots acid out of his hands at the couple, Dwayne got ready to shoot water and ice at them, but they went past him quickly, going to the family, Shining Armor uses his horn to make a pink shield to hold the two blotches of acid back, they extinguish themselves and Princess Cadence ran to Shining Armor, the two use their love for one another to release a blast, it hits Arnold and he screams he broke apart, not a piece of him was left.

Everybody runs to the couple and checks on the child,

"Are you alright, dear?" Rarity asked, the boy panted and nodded,

"Thank you, our son was born with a psychic disorder, my brother had one, too, the Psychics have been after him ever since." the man said,

"Well, go into hiding, we'll offer any help we can." Princess Cadence replied,

"Thank you, let's go." the woman said, and they leave.

Dwayne's dream changes again and he was on a road, he realized he was in Dunland, since the land was flat, had grass everywhere, and he was on a road, which the people used to travel, since almost everyone in the country was a farmer,

"Uncle." a voice was heard from afar, he saw Flint running to him, he was wearing a black short-sleeve shirt, black shorts, black socks, and black shoes, he had a square shaped face, short light brown hair, slightly tan skin, and blue eyes,

"Zoe and Barry are up ahead, I was wondering if we should say hi to them." Flint said,

"Leave them be, Flint, from my experiences, doing got me in trouble, sometimes, a beating." Dwayne replied,

"Oh, really?" Flint asked,

"Yeah." Dwayne replied, Flint was a bit surprised. Dwayne saw someone approaching and Flint turned around, they saw a man coming, Dr. Shadow quickly contacted Dwayne telepathically and gave him information, that man's name was Dick, and he was a member of the Psychics,

"Flint, get behind me, he's another Psychic." Dwayne said,

"So you do know me, but I'm not here for you, Dwayne." Dick said,

"What?" Dwayne asked, a ringing sound was heard in Dick's head and he grunts while clutching his head, metal pieces begin coming out of his body, wheels appear on his biceps and thighs, Dick's body became made out of black metal and exhaust pipes came out of his knees, he transformed into a black car,

"If the target is too strong to kill, break them mentally by killing their children." Dick said in a distorted voice, he drove towards Flint with fire coming out of the two exhaust pipes. Flint screamed and he tripped as he tried to run, going under Dick's body, he turns around and drives towards Flint in an attempt to run him over, Dwayne quickly transforms and teleports to Flint, he grabs him and teleports away. Dick drove towards them and was really fast, he was catching up quickly, a truck is heard and they see it coming from the left it got onto the road, Barry was on the back, he was tall, had rough and slightly tan skin, natural green eyes, short white hair, a beard, moustache, and sideburns that were connected to one another, he was wearing a dirty white shirt with the sleeves going halfway down his forearms, dirty green pants, and brown mid-calf length work boots, with the pants over them,

"Come on, Dwayne, Flint, get on." Barry said, and they do,

"Flint, in here." a female voice from inside said, they notice it was Zoe, and Flint entered the truck, and Zoe drove away.

Dick chases them and was fast, Barry grabbed a rifle from behind him, it had a lever on it, he fires two shots at Dick, it did nothing to him, since the bullets just bounced off,

"It's no use, Dwayne, we're gonna need to remove the outer parts, if Ah'm right, his brain is the engine." Barry said,

"Alright." Dwayne replied, and he teleported onto Dick, he saw there was no driver, Dwayne tried to grab onto the hood to remove it, but it was difficult due to Dick going at a high speed. A turn was up ahead and Barry sees it,

"Zoe, try to turn as much as ya can, he shouldn't be able to make the turn at that speed." Barry said,

"Yes, uncle." Zoe replied, and she turns to the left after slowing down a little, Dick tries to turn without slowing down and went off the road, but he quickly drove back on and continued chasing the truck. Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, Princess Cadence, and Derpy tried flying them, while Scootaloo tried using her scooter, they could not reach it, Twilight Sparkle tried shooting a beam at Dick, it could not reach him,

"It's no use, he's too fast." Twilight Sparkle said, a spell is activated and yellow speed bumps appear, Dick slowed down from them, they look and saw Sunset Shimmer appeared on the truck. Rainbow Dash does a sonic rainboom and gained speed, she was able to catch up to them, she tried to remove the part Dwayne was trying to remove, she grunted as she tried,

"Come on." Rainbow Dash said under her breath,

"Dwayne, Ah'm gonna try shootin' the tires out, take out the rear tires." Barry said, Dwayne nodded and he punched holes into Dick, it did nothing to him. Barry aims his rifle and shoots out the front-right tire, he fires again and shoots out the other front tire, Dick was still coming. Dwayne made it to the back and he remembered his painful memories, he screams and makes the rear wheels fly off, only for Dick to regenerate the wheels, Dwayne screamed again and took the tires out, while Dick was moving slower, he did not lose control of himself.

Zoe turns the truck again, this time, to the left, Dick tried to turn but he went off the road again, Zoe then turned again to the left, and then to the right, and to the left, Dick just drove forward and got back on the road, Sunset Shimmer continued making speed bumps appear to slow Dick down, it did nothing to him this time. Dwayne puts his fists into the holes he created earlier and goes to the front, he sees Pinkie Pie and Maud Pie appear, they punch holes into the hood, it got loose and Rainbow Dash pulled it off while going into the air,

"Whoa." Rainbow Dash said as she flew off, but she managed to regain control by flapping her wings.

Dwayne teleported onto the truck while Barry shot three shots with his rifle, destroying a part of the inside, the third shot exposed the brain that was acting as the engine, Barry shoots it and he hits the mutation. Dick contorts and explodes, he goes off the road to his right and disintegrates into a puddle of boiling and bubbling blood, Dwayne watched while Barry put his gun down.

Dwayne's dream changed and he was in his home, Flint was with him, but he was wearing a blue short-sleeve shirt, gray shorts, white socks, and white shoes, Jin was there as well, so were the ponies and Spike, they were behind Jin, they see Flint was crying a bit,

"Flint, when did Amy start being mean to you?" Jin asked,

"We met one another shortly after Mr. Snider died, we became friends, and all of a sudden, after about a month and a half, she started being mean to me, and didn't want to hang out with me, she also excluded me from when she hung out with the other friends I made, I don't know what I did wrong." Flint replied tearfully, the ponies and Spike were surprised and sympathetic,

"About that, Flint, I examined her home, I found a diary, it said you were the best friend she ever had, she never hated you, and as Dwayne figured out, that person was actually a member of the Psychics, disguised as her." Jin said, shocking the ponies and Spike, discovering that the Psychics also tried to destroy someone's friendship,

"Is she still around?" Flint asked,

"I'm sorry, Flint, but that Psychic member broke into her house and killed her the night before she suddenly started being mean to you and her parents a few days prior, she was dead the whole time." Jin replied, the ponies and Spike gasp in horror, Flint began crying his eyes out while Dwayne hugged him with his left hand, Flint cried in Dwayne's abdomen, Dwayne closed his eyes and a tear fell out of his right eye, the female ponies were crying a bit as well.

Dwayne's dream changes and he was at Amy's funeral, he was in Subris, there were homes, roads, and telephone poles everywhere, just like a typical suburban neighborhood. The members of the Brotherhood, and many other people were there, Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Princess Cadence, Shining Armor, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, Trixie, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, and Cheerilee cried a bit as they watched, they saw Flint with his head on Amy's coffin and crying, he finished and walked to Dwayne, the ponies and Spike went to Flint and hugged him while he grieved. Dwayne's vision went pitch black and he slept the rest of the night with no dreams, while he was crying in real life.
