--------chapter4---------
You wake up, after an amazing nights sleep. You've been on the edge of the bed, not trying to seem inappropriate, or full-on. Checking your watch you see 8:13. At least you slept in today... Speaking of morning, you get up, get dressed, and walk over to help Fluttershy with her animals.

"Hey Fluttershy, do you need any help?"

"Um well I dont know if you can do it... Or if you like animals..." she says while running around, grabbing bags of stuff.

"Well, I could move bags for you... AH! Your... I dont even know what that is... I guess they dont like me..."

"Bad Victor! Apologize to the human! Um mabye you can um..."

"Leave?"

"Um no. Yes. Wait um no..."

"I'll give you your space Fluttershy, it's okay."

Walking away, feeling bad that you cant repay Fluttershy... Maybe you'll have better luck at finding a job...

----~~~----

Walking into town boldly, still in your aerial jumpsuit, not bothering to check Raritys bag of clothes for something, walking into Ponyvilles Town Hall. "Still not quite used to the hundreds of ponies... And the hundreds of ponies then staring at me..."

Walking in, you see the Mayor, saying "Hello, um, if you didnt know, I am in your town. I was wondering where I could find a job, anywhere in Ponyville?"

"Um, a human, interesting... Oh do excuse my manners, there is some work over at Ulaf's Pony Shipping, if you need a job..." Hah. UPS. I see what you did there Ulaf./i]

You head down to Ulafs, walking into his office, talking to him...

"Well sir, I am here for a job." you say to the overweight blue unicorn.

"Well, as much as we'd like to have you, we cannot hire -humans-." he sneers.

"Alright, fine."

"Dont let the door hit you on your way out -human" he says, expressing his hatred towards you.

You've had it. You turn around slowly, looking at Mr Ulaf.

"Listen here you prancing pansy, I am fucking tired of this. I'm fine that you dont wanna fucking hire me, but you dont have to be a giant prick about it. Damn."

Walking out, you wonder if ANYONE wants to hire you.

Walking up to a local food joint, when your stomach growls. "Well, guess I'll eat here."

After eating a delicious meal (although devoid of meat), you see a poster saying "HELP WANTED : Assistant - Needs to be able to be fast and having wings or doing parkour would help." Well, you've never been Usain Bolt, but you were no snail either.

'Mail your application to 641 Saddle Street'

Well, seems easy enough...


Through asking fshy you figure out what to put on your application, sending it in and playing the horrible waiting game

"Awww Fluttershy, I hate waiting!"

"You just have to wait, sorry." Fluttershy says. "Oh! Um could you -"

"Yeah," you say as you walk over, helping Fluttershy get some boxes down from her closet.

She guides you over to the back, where she has a vegetable garden. "Set them down there... Angel, eat your food." she says to her rabbit and you. You've never liked that rabbit, because he never liked you... In the past few weeks, you've gotten to know most of fluttershy's animals. She had you help her with the animals, a smile plastered on her face when you were helping her... She's very cute but how am I gonna take it to the next level? Rarity might know something about this...

Walking back into her house, you hear a knock on the door. Opening the door, you see the mail pony! He hands you the mail, and you look at all the envolopes. You find the one from your potential employer... "Dear Aaron (what your name was on earth) I would like to see you in person, to seal the deal. I will hire you, as long as you pass a test. Go to 243 Mane Street. We will meet you there at 8:00. Go to station A" The envolope didn't say who sent it, only a return address.

"Fluttershy, I got a letter from the job, for an interview!"

"See, all you had to do was wait!"

-------------about 1 hour later ------------

Walking to your job, given the address, which is near the school about a 10 minute walk from Fluttershy's house. Fluttershy went to the spa with Rarity, so you can't ask Rarity about you and Fluttershy yet.

The building that your job is in has 3 floors. This is the subway...
Why do they want me here? You open the door, only to be assaulted by 4 ponies wearing black tuxedos.

"he walked in, he wasn't the one from the letter right?"
You hear an arguement, obviously about you, after you wake up.
"Yeah he was you dumbass!"

"But boss-"

"Untie him now, and maybe- just maybe- he still wants the job. If he doesn't, I will personally see that you will never see the light of day again!"

So, they want me for the job. But why attack people at the door?
Are they criminals? Why are they so afraid of being seen? I should have never come, it was strange enough that they wanted to meet at night...

See what happens next time, as the suspense GROWS! (hopefully, as I am terrible at this)
