Look Inside Your Heart Part Two.

Chapter 6: Mortality Lost.

I heard the faint sound of beeping and open my eyes. I feel movment at my side and find Scoot hanging off the edge of the bed, and Felicia asleep at the bedside. I look around to find Firefly asleep in the corner. Scoot's eyes slowly opened and her face lit up when she saw I was okay. "Thank Celestia you're okay!" She wrapped her arms around me and was shedding tears of joy. The sudden change in volume made Firefly fall out of her chair. Felicia opened her eyes and she hugged me too.

"We were so worried," The combined force of their being worried was cushing my ribs.

"Can't breath,"

"Sorry," Felicia backed away with a smile.

"Looks like you're awake, I must say you're quite resilient." Hermes was sitting on the window sill.

"Who are you," Firefly had her sword drawn.

"Settle down Firefly, he's a, friend."

"Well, now that you're conscious I can leave."

"Not before you tell us why you are here Messenger god." Monarch stood in the doorway. "But not here,"

"Fine," Hermes raised his hands and flicked his wrists and we were all back at the castle. "Will this location suffice?"

"Yes it will," Celestia glared at him.

"I must speak with you four and you alone."

"Agreed." Luna seemed high and mighty as usual.

"Felicia take Scoot, I have some business to attend to."

"Okay, don't take too long."

"I won't, promise."

"Aaw but we just got here,"

"Come on, let's go see the Wonderbolt derby,"

"Really," Scoot's mood changed in seconds and they ran off.

"Spill it," Monarch growled.

"Cressendo your amulet, where did you get it?"

"Some pony down in the dungeon slipped it in my bag when I was little."

"Who was this pony?"

"I don't remember his name, what's with all the questions?"

"That pony was Starswirl The Bearded,"

"He's still alive?" Celestia was shocked. "How is that possible?"

"The Flame, as long as the fire burns light will shine." Monarch seemed to know more than everyone in the room. "If he's still alive and kicking, it stands to reason that he's trying to send a message."

"His grandson,"

"You mean Bassboost, he's been missing for years,"

"Not missing, with the humans, he's been on the other side. bettering his skills, but his convienient case of amnesia, keeps him wondering why."

"What are you saying, that we can't handle it here?"

"Not me, Starswirl he asked me personally to send the messages, You have ten days until he arrives then all Hades'll break loose." Hermes turned and disappeared.

"Ten days," I walk to the window overlooking the gardens. "Then what?"

"I don't know but I'm glad you'll be here to enjoy the ride." Monarch patted my back and smiled. "Now go fetch your gear, we have alot of work to do." He backed away and turned to Luna and Celestia. "If all Hades is gonna break loose we need to be prepared."

"Can I bring a few others?"

"Of course, the more we have the better chances."

"That was awesome, Thanks Felicia." Scoot and Felicia walked in through the gates. Scoot was wearing a foam finger and Wonderbolt goggles. She ran over to me and gave me a big hug. "She likes you, I can tell, she'd make a great mom." The words that came from her mouth floored my thought process.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, we waited in your room for all four days, you saw her when you woke up. She was all over you."

"Well I'll think about it okay?"

"Okay."

"Now about training, Monarch and I will be teaching some other ponies and I was wondering if you'd be my personal student." Her face lit up as the words escaped my mouth.

"When do we start?"

"Tomorrow, let's go home, you're welcome to join us Felicia."

"Um, okay." Her face was flush red as she smiled, My arms around both of them we headed to the train station, and enjoyed the ride back to Ponyville

(P.O.V. Switch, Tobias)

Tobias' log day four, I had no idea the technology here would be this advanced. This Soren has done quite well to keep my mind challenged, we may have finally had a breakthrough on his hover tech but we still have to build a prototype, that Vinyl pony showed up yesterday and helped us wire up a sound system, and three others came by this morning, Quickfix, Gearhead, and Carpenter, strange names but they really fit them.

"Hey we could use some help here!" Soren yelled from the first floor.

"Alright give me a minute." I hit save and vault over the railing using my wings as a parachute. "What's next?"

"Not much Carpenter's almost finished with the floors, Quickfix and Gearhead are almost finished with the terrain controls, you can help me with the gravity control system."

"Your tech is really that advanced?"

"I don't mean to brag but yeah, moon tech is quite the accomplishment." He led me to a console in a room off to the side, which I guessed used to be an office.

"Humans are centuries away from this stuff."

"Really, I would have thought you would have something close." He pulled off the front panel exposing wires. "The Grav generators are on the fritz."

"Can I see your blueprints?"

"Sure," He shuffled through a file cabinet and pulled out the plans of the Grav unit circuitry. "It's baffling everything is correct." I quickly skim over the plans and found the problem.

"AC or DC?" I asked not looking up.

"What," He sounded confused.

"These plans don't say whether it's powered by Alternating Current, or Direct Current, besides there are no variables if you are programming it to this console as a control unit, they wouldn't work anyhow, the gravity would stay set at one G."

"That's genious, are you sure Humans don't know about this kind of tech?"

"I don't know too many top secret government scientists,"

"Well what would you recommend?"

"First we need to program the console, What type of code are you using?"

"Hexadecimal,"

I sit at the Crystal system plugged to the console.

Crystal System engaged.

Project Grav Generator.

Input code. I quickly type in the codes I feel best starting with, and save them to memory.

Test Initiated. The generator whirred and my body felt slightly heavier.

1.2 Gs. I reach for the console dial and turn it. 1.5 Gs. "It works, I've been trying to fix that for days."

"I don't mean to brag but, I know alot about programming, but it still baffles me how you were able to do this."

"Well anything can be magnetic if you change it's electric charge, these generators emit flux waves, while not powerful enough to stick you to the floor they do strain your muscles,"

"Via the iron in your blood, that's genius."

"You catch on quick, better turn the gravity back to normal." Soren turned the dial and the strain lifted. "Wouldn't want to catch anypony off guard."

I finally had someone to talk to, someone who shared my intellect, someone who was exactly like me, wait parallel dimension means there are exact copies of our personalities in different bodies and situations. He wasn't like me, he was me!
