In the castle

Thorax and the genie were waiting for princess Twilight near the exit of the castle.

"Where are they?" Thorax whispered to the genie.

"Relax." Said the genie.

"What is taking so long?" Thorax asked again.

Sombra was looking at Thori with a familiar look.

"Here comes the stallion." Said the genie.

Then the sultan Nightlight, the hoofmaid Starlight and the princess Twilight came and greeted him.

Thorax bowed while holding a stick in his hooves.

"What are you doing?" The Genie asked, but Thorax didn't reply to him. "Put your hooves down." He told him.

"I'm presenting it." Thorax told him.

"Put your hooves down!" The genie whispered seriously, but he didn't.

"It's a pleasure to welcome you to Canterlot, Prince Thori." Said the sultan as he bowed his head.

Thorax then bowed, but a piece from the stick fell on the ground.

"Why did it dropped?" The genie asked the genie quietly.

"I don't know, it fell off." Thorax replied to him quietly.

Then the genie pushed the piece of the stick behind Thorax with his back hoof.

"It's a pleasure to meet him, probably." The genie whispered to Thorax.

"Uh... It's just as much a pleasure for me, your highness sir." Said Thorax. His sentence was a bit confusing. "You look very serene."

"That's a curtsy, not a bow. Stand up." The genie whispered to Thorax again.

Thorax did what the genie said and stood up.

"I'm afraid I'm unfamiliar with Manehatten." Said Sombra.

Thorax and the genie looked at each other for a second, then back at the front.

"Well it's north."

"It's south."

Thorax and the genie said at the same time.

Thorax looked at the genie again, then back at the front.

"Uh... we have a north and a south." Said Thorax.

"What?" Garble asked looking at his master.

"It's near, if your were to go, it's. Around there, you can find it, if you just look." Said the genie.

"The world is changing quickly, Sombra." Said Nightlight.

"It seems as if there is a new country everyday." Nightlight said smiling.

Thorax laughed from hearing that and tapped the genie's back.

"Don't touch me." He said, but Thorax tapped his back again.

"Don't touch me."

"Well, yes, you are very wise." Said Thorax.

"Tell him that we have gifts, please." The genie reminded him.

Thorax cleared his throat "Right! We have things. Gifts!" He told them, then he looked at the genie "Did you organize this?" He whispered to him.

"Yeah!" Said the genie as he clapped his hooves, and the ponies outside came in.

"Yes, here we are. Gifts coming right up! We have spices, golden camels, and spoons, tiny spoons."

"Spoons!" Starlight whispered to Twilight excitedly.

"We also have jams!" Said Thorax.

"Jams?" Sombra asked with no emotion.

"Jams?" Garble also asked.

"Yes, jams! Yam jams, fig jams."

"Yam jams!" Said Starlight looking at Twilight.

"And date jams. Seedless, delicious, exotic jams." Thorax finished.

"Move away from the jams." The genie whispered to Thorax seriously.

"What?" Thorax asked.

"We have jewels." The genie told him.

Thorax cleared his throat again "Jewels! We have them! And, uh, that! Over there. Hidden for suspence." Said Thorax pointing at the covered object, then two stallion guards unfolded it, and they saw a wheel.

"Ta-da!"

"It's a wheel?" Twilight asked looking at the wheel.

"It's, uh, very expensive." Said Thorax.

"And what do you hope to buy with this expensive?" Twilight asked looking at him.

"You!" Said Thorax, and everypony in the room looked at him.

Thorax shook his head when he said that "No! No, no, no. A moment with you, a moment. That's not..."

The genie sighed in annoyance.

"Are you suggesting I am for sale?" Twilight asked him raising am eyebrow.

"Of course." Said Thorax. Then she looked at him.

"Not! No, of course not! No!"

"It's cold and it's dark in that lamp. But I prefer it to this." The genie told him.

"Please excuse me. I need to go and find some bread." Said Twilight as she turned around and walked away.

"For the jams." Said Starlight.

"No! That's not what I meant. I..."

"You did great." Said Starlight as she walked away with Twilight.

"That's not what I meant."

"Just leave her alone. You didn't do great." The genie told him.

"You will get the chance to speak again. We hope you can join us tonight, Prince Thori, when we celebrate our harvest." Said Nightlight as he walked away with Sombra behind him.

"Of course, your serene self. We will join you." Said Thorax as he bowed again. Then he stood up.

The genie looked at Thorax "In 10000 year... I've never been that embarrassed." He told him.

Canterlot castle 9:45pm

*Fireworks explode*

In the castle's large balcony there was a huge party happening, and Thorax and the genie arrived at it.

"Don't worry. You are not out of the game yet." The genie told him "Just do whatever you'd normally do at a party." He finished.

"I've never been to a party." Thorax told him.

The genie looked at him.

"What?" He asked with an incredulous voice.

"What?" Thorax asked looking at him as well.

"You're gonna need to go back to the room then. You're not messing up my night." He told him.

"Prince Thori."

When Thorax and the genie turned around, they saw the sorcerer Sombra.

"May I have a word? Privately. This doesn't concern your servant."

"Well, be over there minding my business." Said the genie as he left.

Thorax cleared his throat and looked at him.

"I know who you are." Sombra told him.

Then Thorax looked at him nervously.

"You do?"

"Yes." He said "You're a stallion of great ambition like myself." He told him.

Thorax smiled to him and said "I, uh, don't believe we've been properly introduced."

Then Sombra introduced himself first.

"My name is Sombra, vizier to the sultan." He told him "I could be a valuable ally to help you get what you want." He finished.

"I, uh... I will think on that." Said Thorax as he tapped on Sombra's back "I don't wanna keep the princess waiting." He said as he turned around. But he was stopped when Sombra said "Perhaps I'm not making myself clear."

Then Thorax looked at him again.

"This offer will not be on the table for long, you see." Said Sombra as he controlled him with his staff.

"Prince Thori. Excuse me. Prince Thori, your presence is requested." Said the genie bringing Thorax to the party place, and Sombra looked at them.

"So, I guess that's the guy." Said the genie.

Thorax gave him a verbal response and said "That's the guy."

Then they walked to a place with many ponies were talking, including princess Twilight and the hoofmaid Starlight.

"Okay, there she is. This is your chance." Said the genie excitedly.

"You know what? There are a lot of ponies. I don't think I can do this." Said Thorax as he turned around. But the genie placed his hoof on his chest and pulled him back.

"You'll be fine."

"Okay." Said Thorax as he took a deep breath.

"This one's gonna be easy."

Then they walked towards Twilight and Starlight.

"Whoo. Look at her hoofmaid. And she's going to get some punch. Feelin' a little thirsty myself." Said the genie as he walked to get a drink.

"No! No, no! You can't leave me." Said Thorax. "They'll see through me." He told him.

"No, they won't. All you have to.fo is walk over there." He assured him.

"And speak. I also have to speak." Thorax told him with a nervous look.

"Okay, listen to me. I live in a lamp. This is a party. Don not mess this up for me. Okay?" He asked and Thorax nodded "I like to party. Go get her!"

Then the genie walked away.

Thorax was approaching Twilight. And Twilight looked at him, but before Thorax could reach her, Prince Bluehood called her.

"Princess Twilight!"

"You? You're still here?"

"Yes."

Then Thorax took a seat near the fountain.

"What are you doing?" The genie asked looking at him.

Thorax looked at him and said "I'm just making sure the water is a good temperature."

"Why are you not over there?"

"How am I suppost to compete with that?" Thorax asked pointing at Prince Bluehood. "Look at him. He's so princely."

"You have got to be more confident about what you have to offer." The genie told him.

"What do I have to offer?" Thorax asked "Knowledge of how to steal food? How to jump between buildings?" He asked again.

"Now, Prince Thori, he has jewels."

"No, stop, stop, stop!" Said the genie as he took a seat. "I made you look like a prince on the outside." He told him. "But I didn't change anything on the inside. Prince Thori got you to the door, but Thorax has to open it." He finished.

Then Thorax looked at the sultan Nightlight, and they raised their cups.

"See, the sultan does like me!"

"Okay, well, maybe he'll let you be his wife." Said the genie, and Thorax looked at him with an irritated look.

"Look at that, another Prince more interested in my father." Said Twilight looking at them.

"I don't know, I think this one might be different. And he comes with an incredibly attractive friend. Please make it work." Starlight begged Twilight.

"And, what about Prince Thori?" Twilight asked her.

"Look at him. He's trying so hard." Starlight told her while she was looking at him.

"That's the problem." Said Twilight.

"Showtime." The genie whispered to Thorax.

Thorax's eyes widened.

"No." As he shook his head "I'm waiting for the right moment." He told him.

"No. No waiting. We're done waiting."

"No, I'm in charge. Okay?" Said Thorax "I say when it's the right moment."

Then the genie pushed Thorax to Twilight with his magic, and he stared at him angrily.

"Really? Really?"

Then Starlight notice that Prince Thori was looking at them.

"Oh. He's here. Say something, act natural." Starlight told Twilight laughing, then she looked at Prince Thori "Hi!"

Thorax waved at Starlight, then he looked back at Twilight.

"I'm sorry for the jams, and the jewels, and the... buying you." He chuckled nervously "That wasn't me. It was me, I don't have a twin or anything, but I. Um. Do you-"

"Dance? I'd love to." Said Twilight walking to the dance area.

"Yes." Said Thorax looking at her. Then he looked at the genie and he smiled at him.

"I have to dance." Thorax whispered to him.

"Just dance." The genie told him as he did a small dance.

*Music playing*

The ponies formed a circle around them and the mares walked forward.

"What am I suppost to do?" Thorax whispered to the genie.

"Relax." He whispered back. Then he did magic on him which made his right hoof go up.

The the genie made him walk forward and stand next to Twilight, and he smiled at her.

Then he got moved to the left and right. And he began dancing.

He danced beside Twilight for a moment. Then the genie made him do break dance moves which amazed everypony including Twilight.

Then he jumped on the fountain and did a few moves. Then at the end he did a back flip.

After the dance, everypony cheered.

"That was awesome!" Said a stallion.

"Bravo! Well done!" Said a mare.

Then Twilight walked away, and Thorax stood up and walked back to his guest room.

Sombra had seen the whole dance with the captain of the royal guards.

"Something very strange about him." He said looking at him "Keep a close eye on Prince Thori." Sombra told the captain.

In Thorax's guest room

Thorax was walking in his room after he saw Twilight walking away after his dance.

"She just walked out." Said Thorax with a disappointed look.

"Maybe I went a tad far with the back flip." Said the genie, while looking at himself with a mirror he summond. "But that dance may be the best thing you ever do in your life!" He said as he looked at him.

Thorax shrugged

"That was pretty good. But nothing seems to impress her." He told him.

"Yeah, it's crazy." He said while reading a book. "Not gems or jams or jewels. If I can't impress her, I wonder who can." He finished.

Thorax looked at princess Twilight and the hoofmaid walking to their room, then he looked back at him.

"What's that supposed to mean?" He asked.

"I'm just sayin' try being yourself." The genie shrugged.

"But she has to marry a prince." He told him. Then he looked back in front of him "If I just had a few more minutes with her, I know I could..." Said Thorax, then he had a plan in his mind.

"You need to get me over there." Said Thorax as he turned around and looked at the genie.

"Is that an official wish?" He asked.

"No. It's a favour. For a friend."

"Yeah, see, genie's don't really have friends." He told him.

"I thought you said you never had a friend like me."

Then he increased his size and flew close to him.

"No, I said you never had a friend like me!" He said. Then he returned to normal size.

Thorax sighed when he heard that and looked back in front of him.

"When you're a genie, somepony always wants something from ya. It's awkward." He told him as he summond a mirror in front of him again.

Thorax shrugged and said "Your right, your right. Besides, it would've involved distracting a certain hoofmaiden..."

Then the genie flew in front of him with interest in his eyes.

"I see what you're doing!" He laughed. "You hooked me. See you there?"

Thorax nodded to him.
