And I thought we were normal. How wrong I was.

"Hey have you noticed something about this box." Uefi says as I walk out of it.

"No, why?" I ask turning around.

"Well is it just me or do we live in a fucking T.A.R.D.I.S?" Turning around I see what he means.

   Turning around I see a blue box looking almost completely identical to the actual thing. The only difference is that instead of it saying "police public call box" it says "royal guard public letter box". Well and it's covered in mostly vines and other overgrowth. Why do I feel Luna is just a troll?

"We aren't gonna question it, right? I ask Uefi.

"Nope. Lets go." He says turning back around.

"Yea, lets." I say turning around putting my hands in my pockets.

   As I put my hands in I find my things are still in them. One pencil, a pen, that book, two pepper mints,wait...I hate pepper mints, and some sort of other things. Taking out them I see that they are the cause of my shame. Why did I buy and make these? In my hand are my two ear pieces I bought actually thinking they would work and the two watches I affixed the microphones too. Why am I shamed by these? Because I bought them at the request of Uefi who thought they would work and sadly he was half right the ear pieces worked and received from a ok range but the microphones didn't pick up sound worth a crap. After fifteen Internet searches, a trip to radio shack, 3 hours and three cups of tea the microphones where attached to the watches, push button activated and the range was upped to about 1.5 km more than before to about 2 km of range. My shame is that these things are like something a movie would have.

"Hey Uefi take yours in case we need to split up." I say handing him his gold plated watch. Why did he pay to gold plate that thing anyway? Him and his aesthetics.

"What you still have those? Huh. Didn't think we'd keep anything." He said grabbing his set and putting them on.

"Yea I know." I said putting mine on. And taking out the book seeing that it was a full moon and the town was still a good 2km away.

"Where did you get that?" Uefi asked looking over to me.

"It was on the shelf back in my room. Why?"

"I was just wondering since I didn't see a title or author on the front of it."

"It's just a book of stealth spells." I say opening the book again. Yea thin pages.

Chapter 1:Spells of sound. Spell One:Voice localizing. This spells purpose is to modify the sound of your voice to only be applied to the desired area. First you must think of the area that you want it to encompass, then envision  5 circles each one within the last. Then begin to fell it with magic starting with the innermost circle and then moving outward. Note: This is the initial spell cost. Until the spell has been deactivated each time you speak it will drain more of your magic based on the messages length and how small of a space you want it localized to.

Huh? This could be useful if I need to talk to Uefi without being noticed talking out loud. I guess I'll try it. I begin to think of an area around my head but not leaking over onto Uefi and envision the circles within each other. As I pump my magic into the smallest one it glows with a sapphire hie and I fell fine and the second one isn't a problem. On the third one I feel a small tug on my mind and on the forth I feel a strain but then I feel it loosen and stop altogether. I guess I can restore the initial cost on spells like these. Test 1.

"FUCK YOU UEFI!" I yell while feeling a tug as scarlet and sapphire sparks come out from my lips, but Uefi just keeps on walking like nothing happened. Nope. No response at all. Good.

Ok now to try expanding the range. I think back to the orb I put around my head ad expand it to hold both mine and Uefi's head. I feel a strain from expanding the range but it doesn't seem like I have to re-cast it. Test 2.

"Hey Uefi." I say catching up to him.

"Yes?" He says turing to me.

"Nothing just testing something out." I say stopping the spell and putting the book back in my pocket.

"So what should we do first? Try to find some kind of map, just try some stores or ask some...pony."  Uefi asks seeming to have to push the last word out.

"Lets try to get a feel for the town tonight and try some stores I guess. Wait... Do you have the bits?" I ask being a little worried about any money we my need.

"Yea I've got them. I found two wallets in my room. Each one had 2500 bits on them so I grabbed both of them. Here's yours." He said handing my the silver coloured wallet with the image of a knife on it. I open it and begin count off twenties, it's not that I don't trust Uefi. Ok well I guess it is.

"Thank you." I say counting off 2500 and sticking the wallet in my pocket.

  We continued walking for about another 5 minutes until we came up to the town.

"Looks like we're here Uefi." I say checking my watch. 11 p.m., 2300 for people who like that, that only took about 12 minutes. Good.

"Ok so where do you want to go first?" TO THE BAR! Not really.

"Lets start to all around the outskirts to get a feel for how big this town really is then from there either continue to look closer to the center of it or head back. By the way any idea which side of town this is?"

"Nope. You?"

"Well let me check." I doubt the Big Dipper is here but--son of a bitch. Son of a fucking bitch. Ok well that might be there but I doubt Polaris is there but I'll check I guess. Ok draw a strait line going though the last two stars on the right going up and--MOTHER FUCKING COW BABIES* no other words can describe but mother fucking cow babies. Right fucking there is Polaris. Ok going with magic.  So if Polaris is there then this is the south entrance of the town.*

"It's the south entrance, you want to take the east side of the circle and I'll take e west side and we meet up at the northern entrance, or stick together?

"Lets each tale a side and meet up it'll take less time and we might have enough time left to stop by a store."

"Alright make note of any clothing stores or food stores, we'll want to at least get some different clothes for tomorrow." I say turning to my left.

"Ok. I you find a clothing store just mic it to me and I'll tell you what I need you to pick up for me. We can go to a food store tomorrow." He said walking past me towards the east side of town. Well now I'm on my own I guess...

***********************************************************************************************

   I continued to walk on for awhile around the western edge. The town from what I could tell was shaped like a circle with a few roads jutting out in different directions, these seem to be at S,SW,W,NW,N,NE,E and SE since the only one I've passed that led out of town was going roughly south west. So far I hadn't found any buildings that looked useful and was mostly residential areas except a few ,of what seemed to be, restaurants and bars. So far though my trip had been pretty in eventful, save for when a earth pony threw her drink at me and started calling me a drunk. I promptly caught the bottle and threw it underhand at her legs and ran behind the back of a nearby restaurant while she actually managed to dodge the bottle, granted she fell over and the bottle was only going about 3-5 kph. Regardless it's been all in all a good walk.

"Hey you, over there, creepy fucker." Oh fuck...

   Turing around I see the same mare from earlier holding another bottle however this one was actually full where as the last one had only a quarter left.

"Umm...hi?" I say trying to act calm and happy.

"You made me waste my wine and fall you drunken bastard." She said in a slur of speech. So I'm the drunk?

"Yeah, sorry about that, but you see I'm not a drunken bastard." I say trying to calm her down.

"Liar. I know you took a sip before you threw it back at me." She says waving her bottle and moving closer to me

"Uhh.. I'm sort miss but I really must be going... Just tell me how much it was and I'll pay you back. Ok?" As I say it she moves closer and begins to laugh.

"No, no. I don't want your money." She says closing the distance between us and putting her hand on my shoulder.

"Then what?" I ask with fear growing within me.

"I wanna share a drink. All my friends went and said I was too drunk and left me, but it's no fun drinkin' in my lonesome. I figured a drunk,perverted bastard could share one with me." Ok them to evaluate my options, A. Try to run again. B. Share a drink C. Play deaf. Going with B, she'd find me back anyway.

"I'm sorry but I can't drink with you, I'm still a minor. And also I'm not drunk, I'm not a bastard and ,as far as this goes, I'm not a pervert, but you can follow me along and drink if you wish." I say as I turn around and she walks forward happily sipping from her bottle.

"More for me and I get a buddy." She says grinning wildly skipping behind me.

"Heh yeah, whatever."

"Hey, are you new here or somethin' cause I don't remember seeing a black eyed pony who has a weird cutie mark like the one you have around your neck." For a drunk she is acting pretty smart.

"Oh yeah me and my friend are new here so we're walking around town to get a feel for it. He has the east side and I have the west side." I say looking over to find her with a empty bottle and listening to me intently.

"Oh? Ok. But what about that cutie mark necklace" What is that for?" She asks while pulling another bottle out of her purse. Shit..how much is she going to drink?

"Oh yea well uhh.." Shit. Shit. Shit. Crap. Shit. Ah she's drunk. I'll just leave out the whole thief and killer part. Hopefully she won't notice the purse and knife.

"My cutie mark is for stealth purposes, like hiding,following, being unseen, you know that kinda thing." I say with a little fear coating my words.

"Ok. But what about that little brown coin bag and knife thingy, why are those there? You good at killin' or stealin' or somethin'?" Crap. She got me.  Well no use hiding it I guess, I just hope she can keep it on the down low.

"Ok. I'll tell you the whole thing just don't tell anyone. Ok?" I say stopping and turing towards her.

"Well ok I'll keep quiet. Just tell me, it's impolite to keep a mare waiting." She says throwing her bottle off on the side of the road

"Yeah I know. Well you see I didn't lie when I said its for sneaking and shit, but I also am at my best when I'm stealing and assassinating."

"OOOOOHHHHHH! Well ok then." Wait what? She's ok with it?

"Wait you're ok with this?"

"Hell yea. My drinkin' buddy is a pony of the night and besides I always trust my drinkin' buddies." Best drunk EVER!

"So who's this friend of yours? He some kind of killer night pony like you or somethin'" She asks as we turn and continue walking.

"No, not really. His mark is for evasive maneuvering. What about yours?" I ask turning to her.

"No offense but I'm not sure your friend would make a good drinkin' buddy." Heh. She's right, Uefi always hated drunks.

"Heh. You're right he hates drunks, says they need more self control."

"WHAT DOES HE MEAN? I HAVE TONS OF SELF CONTROL. I HAVE A CUTIE MARK IN DRINKIN'." She says taking out another bottle. Well I should've guessed that.

"So you have your mark in drinking? Do you make wine?"

"Yeah I make it. My wine is the best wine in this town." Is this a challenge?

"Sorry, but I still think my grandfathers would be better." I say stopping.

"What? Oh come on. I GUARANTEE YOU MINE IS BETTER." She says turning around and shoving her bottle by my mouth.

"Go on take a sip. Mine is better." She says waving the bottle.

"Ok fine if it'll make you happy." I say taking a drink of it. Well I won't deny it's good. But I still don't think it's better than his.

"Well you're right that's good, but I still think his is better. Then again I'm probably too bias. I'll have to make some like he did and we can get somepony to decide. Ok?" I ask and she finishes the last half of the bottle.

"Well ok. Damnit I'm out." She says grabbing into her magic wine purse again. Good. No offense but I didn't feel like dealings with a passed out drunk.

"AWW. MY DRINKIN' BUDDY IS OUT OF BOOZE." I say going along with her happy drunken skipping.

"YEA I KNOW! Well I've gotta get home I have stuff to do tomorrow anyway. If you wanna talk again just wait by the bar called "We got drinks and stuff" it's on the outskirts on this side of town. I go there every other night. What your name anyway?" She says turing to me.

"Oh yea it's Still Sonata. You?"

"MISS BERRY PUNCH! PONYVILLE'S NUMBER ONE DRINKER!" She says turning toward the inner portion of town.

"Well bye Berry." I say feeling a little sad she had to go.

"Bye." She says running off in the weirdest drunken run I've ever seen, and I've seen one of my dads friend piss all over his parents while he was drunk and then run away. Funny time that was. Well I better call Uefi since I'm almost to the north entrance.

"Hey Uefi" I say casting the voice spell around my head and the watch.

"Yea?" I hear in my ear piece.

"I'm almost there what about you"

"I'm here already. What kept you?

"Oh nothing. I just met the local drunk." Then I hear exactly what I expected.

"FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKK YOOOOOOOUUUUU!"
