Another Chance at Life
Chapter 21: 21. Mind Trip Pt.2
Previous Chapter Next ChapterA/N: This chapter is the second and final part of my Mind Trip side story. I want to let you know now, this has a letter written in binary code, it is not accurate, so don’t worry about trying to decipher it yourself, I will be explaining it after anyways. Here you go!
Twilight and I walked outside of the school and walked onto the bus. “Twilight, this will pretty much be your crème de la crème of our visit here. This place is full of technology” I said to her. You will also have to deal with a really odd old man named Mr. D. I swear that guy makes dirt more interesting than him.
Twilight smiled at me and then looked around the bus. “So this is what you call a bus. It looks like a really big elongated one of those vehicle things. I take a guess this is used as a massive transport vessel for you all?”
I was a little distracted, I was watching myself as I sniffed a special something that would come into play later on in the day. Goood, let the smell fill your nostrils my 3rd person self. All will come to you in good time. *sigh* I want to get the school day over with NOW! The bus then started moving and we were on our way to BOCES. YAY!!! Learning within learning!
When we finally arrived there Twilight and I got off the bus and walked through the front doors. “Where do you want to go first, I know a little bit of what goes on in each class, but CST is where you will get the most info out of me.”
“Well then let’s go there. I am curious to find out why you think that this will be so much more interesting than everything else here. I find it all fascinating, except for the class you take for math, that could use some more difficulty” Twilight said to me.
“AWWWW WHY U GOTTA BRING THAT UP AGAIN! You opened a just recently closed wound, and then proceeded to pour salt over it!” I said to her in a teasing tone. That comment almost makes me want to just walk out into the forest and sit on a log and let the day pass me by. I know I am rubbing off on you now, that was a perfect example of trolling right there. *mumbles angrily*
We walked down into the basement floor of the building. CST was located in the scenic ‘mancave’ of BOCES. We phased through the door and then proceeded to look around the room. I say we, but I was really trying to pick up one of my classmates bottles of Amp. I liked to mess around with him, and he hated it when I did so. I wish I could have the ability to hide his drink; I would hide it in the recycle bin. That would show him *evil laugh*.
“You were right; I don’t understand what any of these things are here, but the things that are on the tables that you all are looking at look like big versions of your laptop thing” Twilight said as she walked around the room.
She then walked up to the board that was in the front of the class, she was looking over the notes on how to transfer data into binary code, it also had a little info on how to translate sentences into binary as well. She took out her notepad once more and began jotting the notes into it. Oh great, now she is going to school me in binary code! I can never fucking win at anything can I? Do not pass go, do not collect $200 feeling again. *sniffle*
“This is a lot more challenging than the work that was at the other school. This is also really fun” the lavender mare said to me, she was looking over the notes in her notebook and then she grabbed a small parchment out of her bag and began writing on it.
I walked over to my friend who was sitting at a table behind my 3rd person self. I repeatedly began to try to punch him in the head. I know this doesn't amount to anything, but F-F-F-FFAALLCCOONN PPAAWWNNCCHH!!! I don’t know why this is so entertaining, but it is! I was brought back into the not so much of a reality by Twilight handing me the parchment.
I looked over the parchment and my eye twitched a little. That little troll, she had to go all ‘U MAD that I can write a letter to you in binary code now?’ didn’t she. ARRGHH sometimes I feel like I am just put out there for others amusement at watching my suffering. *sheds a not so manly tear*

“Dear Kyle,
Though this topic IS more difficult than the other one, it is still not that difficult for me. I find this to be fun, so if I ever need to send you a letter now, expect it to be in binary code. Your classes really are funny to me, and seeing the reaction you give me for saying so only makes it funnier.
Sincerely, Twilight the Egghead”
Ooooohhh, she’s good. I might just have to make her eat those fighting words. I think a trip to the pond is in order when we return; I am going to throw her in it with gusto. I stood there with my mouth agape at what she just wrote to me. “ARGH, I find it otherworldly that you understand such topics only after glancing over them! You have ruined what little respect I had for my school life, I want to bury it now…bury it in the deepest pit of the Earth!” I said as I threw my hands up into the air.
We finished our stay at BOCES with me still bombarding her with questions on how she can be so good with such topics. Then we got back to my other school, the rest of the day flew by us. Thank god!
“Twilight, want to see what happens when three friends get a hold of an exotic substance? It leads to some funny things, I can tell you that” I said to the lavender unicorn.
“Sure, I want to see how you act when you are around some of your friends” Twi responded to me.
We followed my 3rd person self and my three other friends as they walked to an aqueduct. They crawled under an overhang and we followed them. We sat down and watched as the events played out in front of us.
I feel like I am at a movie theater that is only made for me! We watched as me and my three friends passed a bowl filled with an exotic substance back and forth. After they were done holding their breath they let out the smoke, and it filled the area.
“What are you doing? With all of the smoke coming out of your mouth, it sure doesn’t look healthy” Twilight said to me, she was confused as to what we were doing.
“This is the first time I ever smoked pot. It is a type of drug that makes you feel like anything you do is an accomplishment. It also makes you feel like you are the happiest thing alive. Surely there are some types of herbs that have some of the same types of effects back in Equestria?” I said to her. I bet there is, and I bet she was peer pressured into doing it at least once, just like me. I bet it was Rainbow Dash or Pinkie Pie that pressured her.
3rd person Kyle was beginning to laugh so hard that he couldn’t stop, which made his friends start laughing, then it got us to laugh at the sheer fact that everyone else was laughing. “I am ready to go now if you want to leave, that was the only part of that little escapade that I wanted to see” I said to her when we calmed down from laughing. I had my fun. I want to go home now and fall asleep, too much learning followed by stupid.
“Ok, thanks again for letting us do this. I learned a lot about where you came from today” Twilight said as she readied her magic to take us back to the current time. She shrouded us in magic and when we came to we were back in the library. I can hear my bed calling my name. Kyle……Kyle………get your fat ass over here and go to sleep already!
“Twilight, I hope you had fun reliving one of my days with me. I found it to be very entertaining myself, I can’t wait for my first binary code letter! Now I must go home and embrace my bed, for I am as tired as Rainbow Dash after she gets done with training” I said as I started walking towards the door.
“I had a lot of fun too, I will talk to you soon” Twilight said to me as I walked out the door.
I walked back to my apartment in silence. Tomorrow I have to get up at the crack of dawn to get to Sweet Apple Acres. I want to get as much done as I possibly can. I only wish that there was Powerthirst here. I would have loads of manergy. I shuffled up the stairs and unlocked my door. When I went in I collapsed onto my bed and let out a contented sigh. All I want now is a nice sleep and no Derpy to wake me up in the morning!
A/N: This was the end of my first side story. Sorry for it being another short chapter, they will get longer again I promise! I hope you liked it! I will be having plenty more of them later on, so you should always be entertained. I will be posting another chapter sometime this weekend, who knows maybe even 2 chapters! Bye for now!
