"You look adorable!" Cadence said with a smile as she gave you a big hug.

You looked at yourself in the mirror and examined your clothing. You had black slacks on with a white dress shirt along with a gray suit vest. You looked at your hair and had second thoughts about it.

Your natural hair color was brown, but you didn't like the color you were more of a black hair colored guy.

"I dunno something's missing." You say to Cadence as you tapped your chin.

"Like a silver pocket watch?" She asked taking out a box from behind.

"How did you-"

"You can't hide stuff from your big sister Dante, now put it in your pocket and let the chain hang out." She smiled as now you had two pieces of jewelry you kept safe by your side.

The necklace Celestia gave you during your coronation and Cadence's gift. You gave Cadence a hug as she hugged back.

"Happy birthday little bro." You only smiled and nodded.

"What a lovely scene." You two stopped and looked towards the doors to see Celestia she seemed glad to see you two get along. For the past two days you've been modeling or getting into arguments with Cadence mostly over the modeling job you didn't want.

You were still a little peeved about the situation, but anything to stop looking into the puppy dog eyes of your sister was enough to make model.

"Yeah Dante's been doing great Ms.Finish even told him that if he keeps this up he'll be known all around Equestria as the prince of fashion. And I even saw a few fillies admiring my little bro." You blushed and looked away never have you thought about a filly's perspective of the whole situation. You looked back at the mirror and inspected your attire something big was missing and it was bugging you.

"Hey Cadence don't you think somethings missing besides jewelry."

"What do you think could be missing little bro?" She asked approaching you.

"Yes what is it that is missing?" Celestia asked

You looked once more in the mirror and it hit you, your hair color you remembered that Ms.Finish wanted you to dye your hair black, she said it was important to show that your could change your appearance even if it was the smallest of things.

"My hair! My hair! I need to dye it don't you remember Ms.Finish wanted it for the shoot later today." You paced back and forth worried that you'd be fired if you didn't have your hair dyed though it would've been a dream come true to get fired you couldn't help, but feel guilty if you did it on purpose.

"Don't worry Dante the shoot's at five we have plenty of time to get you to a salon." Cadence informed you looked into her eyes as she smiled you slowly exhaled and nodded as you felt a great amount of relief.

Later that day...

It was now noon and you had two hours till your appointment at the Canterlot salon and you spent over two hours stretching and close action combat with your trainer.

"Now Dante I want you to run,duck,and dodge any practice dummies as those are your obstacles. Get to the dummy on the other side and you'll pass. But this is a test so try to get your fastest time possible." Shining Armor stated as he approached you. Shining Armor was Cadence's coltfriend and someone you admired he was extremely brave and awfully nice to you. He told that he aspired to become a royal guard which was pretty great goal for him being that he was fit as all hell. Cadence asked him if he could give you lessons on fighting and wielding swords you practically begged Celestia to let you even join the training regiment,

but two weeks passed and now you were back to parkour practice.

"Any questions?" He asked seemingly knowing the answer as he backed up a bit to give you room to run. You shook your head and placed your hands on the starting line readying yourself with happy thoughts.

"Go!" Shining shouted as you quickly sprinted towards the first obstacle a pitfall you grab the rope and swung across with ease as air pass by you. You ran closer and closer to a wall and spotted a couple boxes resembling a level on Super Mario Bros. boy did you spent many sleepless nights playing that game back on earth.

You successfully and quickly stride over the many boxes once atop you slide of the wall and rolled down towards the ground.

You still weren't done as you grabbed a wooden sword from the ground and swiped across the chest of the several dummies.

You looked around and spotted a winch. You ran over to it and looked for a handle for it you stuck the wooden sword and began to spin it, the large wooden door began to lift up as it was up high you let go and ran out the area.

You started breathing heavily as you finally left the area. Shining ran over to you and stopped the timer you were tired too tired to even think of anything witty to say to your trainer.

"Twenty minutes, you gotta go faster, think faster Dante." You only laid on the ground breathing heavily as you waved him off.

"And you said you can handle anything."

"I can, it's just that you're making things tough for me."

Later that day...

"Dante you can't expect me to think that just because you have a little magic that you could weasel out of getting me a present." Azure said shaking her head Azure was a midnight blue unicorn with an amber colored mane, and tail with eyes to match. Her cutie mark was of a silver band with a dazzling Amber gem stone. She wore a white flowing dress with a bonnet atop her head

"Azure please I spent four hours training now can we just get to the salon."

"Fine, but I'm not letting this go." You rolled your eyes and continued on to your path towards the salon not wanting to have to deal with scolding you'd get if you missed your appointment.

"Why do you suddenly need to get your hair dyed? Your natural colored hair is fine enough." Azure asked

"Something about small changes and other things dealing with modeling ya know what commoners like yourself don't have to deal with." You joked

"You're a jerk you know that." You only smiled as you entered the salon.

"Ah young prince your mother called ahead and told me to change your hair to a different color. What is it that you like?"

"Jet black please. And my friend here will have her mane washed." The stylist nodded as she whisked you and Azure towards a couple of chairs.

Might as well give Azure something while you were there. Next Chapter: 7.Look Before You Sleep Estimated time remaining: 3 Hours, 8 Minutes
