Vesper and I left the next day with the prison carriage that arrived for the cultists. Nothing in Bullgium was very interesting to us, and the Colosseum had been a huge disappointment. Twilight was antsy because we didn't see her costume of Star Swirl (apparently we'd missed 'Nightmare Night' or something like that).

For the next few weeks nothing particularly interesting happened. Rainbow got a pet, but that was pretty much it. Life was boring once again.

To try and counter my boredom, I was out on another walk ar-

"Help!" Screamed a young, female(ish) voice. I went to investigate by following the continuous screams of the kid and found myself next to well. Looking inside, I saw the rough outline of a pink and blue filly. I summoned a Support Circle and casually flew down to her. Wow, this well's deep. After about a minute, I got bored and teleported to her instead.

"'Sup?" I asked casually.

"Please help me, mister!" The filly begged, still screaming. Thanks, it's not like I needed those eardrums...

"Would you stop screaming?"

"Please get me outta here!" One flash later and we were back at the top.

"There, okay? Now, are you hurt?"

"Thanks so much, mister!"

"How did you even get down there? That fall's way to deep to survive normally." I suddenly noticed a crowd around us just in time for their cheering. "Oh. Hey." The crowd just kept cheering. "Yeah, this is happening. I'm gonna go now." I continued my walk, the crowd disappearing as I rounded a corner.

It only took five minutes before I heard another scream, this time just a scream in general. I didn't have to look far to find a mare looking down a hill and producing the screams. I looked down the hill to see a baby carriage speeding towards the edge of a cliff. Since when have there been random cliffs in the middle of a village? I grabbed the carriage with telekinesis, levitated it back to the mare, then continued my walk.

This time it took ten minutes. A balcony on an old ponies home had snapped and four elderly ponies were plummeting to the floor. After some quick levitation and a repair spell, the balcony and ponies were back where they should have been. This whole town is a bucking health hazard.

About an hour later, I decided to head back to the library and see if Vesper wanted to have another fight. But lo and behold, I soon found another thing to stop. A hot air balloon had somehow burst and was falling to the ground and a mare was trapped inside. More levitation, more repairs and another disaster averted.

Eventually, I made to the library without the entire town exploding or breaking some way. Vesper wasn't in.

Buck this, I'm taking a nap...
