Twilight walked about her castle with Jack walking close behind. Since she was the reason that he ended up in this world she thought it was best if he stayed with her until further notice. For the past thirty minutes they wandered the castle with her showing him which rooms were where and the room that he would be staying in, which was only three doors from hers.

"So, now that you know the castle inside and out, do you have any questions, comments, or concerns you feel need to be addressed?" She smiled as she asked this, but that didn't last long. Her smile had dropped almost as soon as she turned her head to face her guest who seemed to be more focused on the several balls of fire he was juggling. "Jack..." She waited for a response, but didn't get one. "Jack!"

The clumps of fire vanished as his attention was finally caught. "What the fuck are you yelling about?"

"Did you even hear a word I said, have you paid even the littlest amount of attention during the tour?"

"Are you a green headed dragon with a red body and twelve penises?"

"Eww, no!"

"Exactly!"

She sighed, irritated beyond her own comprehension. This was almost as bad as when she had contacted Tumor via telepathy. "I can't tell if you aren't paying attention because you have some sort of mental illness, or if you're just trying to ignore me."

"Yes." He replied simply, looking directly at her so she knew he was paying attention.

Twilight's hoof shot up and smacked her in the head as she let out an annoyed grunt.

Jack was wondering aimlessly around the castle halls. It had been well over four hours since Twilight showed him around the place and about two hours since she had left to take care of some royal duty. As he wandered he juggled his fire balls effortlessly. It had taken him about a year to teach himself how to do it properly, but doing it with his powers made it a lot easier since he could control how high he wanted them to go just by thinking about it. He suddenly jumped as the sound of a small explosion went off and a stream of confetti shot out at him. He stumbled and tripped, falling onto his back. The balls of fire vanished before he fell, minus the one that was in his hand. Upon hitting the ground the ball slipped from his hand and shot out at the door of a bedroom behind him. The door immediately went up in flames and Jack shot up as quick as his body would allow and began to absorb the fire.

By the time the fire was gone the door was completely gone, luckily the surrounding walls didn't appear to be damaged. "Dammit...where the fuck do I find a replacement for this shit?" He asked himself aloud. His mind was suddenly told him to run as he heard the castle doors open and Twilight's voice calling his name in the distance. He made his way to his room, but Twilight had spotted him just before he closed the door. Jack hopped into his bed and acted like nothing had happened.

Twilight trotted over to where she had seen Jack, but stopped when she notice the door to her room, or in this case the lack of a door. "What the hay? How did-" She stopped herself and thought about it for a second. "Jack..." She muttered to herself before walking to his bedroom and opening the door with her magic. Jack looked at her and waved, looking like had just woken up from a nap. She smiled, doing her best to remain calm and address the situation without altercation. "Jack, where's the door to my room?"

Jack looked over at her with serious eyes, "We were robbed..." He watched as her smile suddenly sank and worry started to fill her features. "and all they took was the door."

Twilight's worried expression immediately turned to one of annoyance before face-hoofing. "Why do I get myself involved with stuff like this?" She asked herself.

"Maybe if you stopped smashing your fucking head in with your own hoof you'd still have enough brain cells to figure that one out, dipshit." He replied for her.

The castle was dark, minus the light coming from a projector in the center of the room. Twilight had to set up a presentation for important delegates from all over Equestria. After a few slideshows of charts and graphs and what not the delegates seemed pleased with what she was saying. Noticing their approval, Twilight smiled both inside and out. "Well, I'm glad that we could all come to an agreement on these terms. Now, I will just set up the arrangements to have a meeting with Princess Celestia to-" She stopped as a strange noise filled the room. She wasn't the only one to take notice of the sound though, the delegates were looking all around to find the source. It wasn't until they looked up that they saw a figure falling toward them. "What the-" Twilight started, but stopped as the figure finally landed, smashing the projector beneath it. Twilight recognized the figure immediately and quickly took notice that his hair was on fire, or rather made of fire. "Jack, your hair!?"

Jack's arms shot into the air as he let out an energetic whoop. "I am a fucking candle!" He shouted before running out of the room and sprinting down the hall, shouting random nonsense all the while.

Twilight smiled nervously as the delegates put their focus back on her with a rather judgmental look in their eyes.

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Spike asked, not really comfortable with this little experiment Jack wanted to do.

"Think about it, okay? You're a dragon, fire won't hurt you. I'm a fire conduit, I'll absorb any flames that touch me and come out completely unscathed. Not only that," Jack walked over and punched the basement walls a few times, "but these walls will be able to handle more than just a little bit of burn damage." He looked back to see spike's nervous expression. "Bud, don't worry about it. If shit gets sour then blame me, I'm the fucker who came up with this idea anyway. Besides, I'm always the bad guy."

Spike raised a brow at him. "What do you mean by that?"

"Doesn't matter." Jack stood on the opposite side of the room looking like he was about ready to start a fight. "Alright, you ready?" He asked.

"I guess..." Spike replied, still feeling a bit uncomfortable about the whole thing.

"Alright, in three..." They both took a breath. "Two.." They took in another breath, this one being much deeper. "One..." This time when they inhaled, they didn't exhale. "Now!"

Twilight had been reading in her room for a short while. It was nice to finally be able to relax and have some time to herself what with all of the craziness going on since Jack's arrival. That was behind her right now though and all that mattered was that she finally managed to get some peace and quiet. However, that was interrupted with a loud explosion and sudden shaking of the castle. "What now?" She groaned, not looking forward to whatever mess it was she was going to have to deal with. She followed a trail of smoke that started to fill the hallways until she eventually found herself in the basement, staring at a tall human and a small dragon. Both standing completely still and covered in soot.

"Spike..." Jack started, sounding completely unfazed.

"Yes, Jack?"

"That was awesome..."

Carrot Top exited the house carrying a small basket with her. As she exited she made her way to a small blanket in the grass consisting of two ponies; her friend Derpy and the Princess of Friendship herself, Twilight Sparkle. She set the basket in the center of the blanket and took a seat with the two mares. "I brought sandwiches." She said with a smile.

"Yum!" Depry said with glee, reaching into the basket and pulling out the snack.

"Thank you." Twilight responded, levitating one out for herself.

Carrot Top stared at Twilight for a moment before speaking to her. "So, what exactly brings the Princess of Friendship to my little home?"

"Well, it is nice to get out every so often, but above all I just had to know,
She paused, looking at the two humans in the distance who seemed to be wrestling and rolling around in the dirt. "How do you do it?"

"How do I do what?" Carrot Top asked curiously.

"How do you deal with him? I mean, I understand that Tumor and Jack are two different people, but they seem to behave alike in most ways. I just can't figure out how to keep him under control. He's loud, he's obnoxious, he breaks almost everything he gets his hands on, and not a day goes by where he hasn't started a fire in my castle!" She buried her face in her hooves. "It's just becoming too much and I don't know how much more I can take."

"Honestly Princess, you really can't." She watched Twilight sink further into her hooves, obviously not being pleased with the answer she was given, "but, he can learn on his own."

"What do you mean?" Twilight asked.

"Well," Derpy started, "when Tumor first showed up here he wasn't exactly the perfect gentlecolt. When I met him he was then as he is now. The only difference is that he's gotten used to being here and being around us so he's not as hostile and rude as he used to be. I think if you give him time he'll warm up to you and maybe he'll even settle down a bit, at least enough for you to keep your sanity." She said with a giggle, "But honestly, I kind of feel bad for you..." She whispered the last part.

"What? Why?" Twilight asked.

Carrot Top picked up from there. "You see, Tumor and Jack are clearly a lot alike, but they do have lines where the other is not willing to cross. Tumor can be aggressive and extremely violent, but Jack is relentless. A little while back in the doughnut shop in Ponyville a stallion came in and started a fight with him, Tumor replied by beating him until he was too weak to resist being arrested. Jack likely would have killed him without a second thought. His anger is much more uncontrollable and he's willing to do things that Tumor wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole." She explained, making Twilight cringe slightly.

"Like what?" She asked.

"Did he ever tell you about when he ate another human?"

"What? No!"

"Why am I not surprised...I'm sorry princess, but when it comes down to it, we have the good twin."

"How do you know all of this?"

"Tumor told me. He really cares about his brother, but at the same time I can tell that he's scared. Not of him, but for him."

"Wow, I guess I really-" She stopped as she looked over and saw Jack picking up Tumor and launching his body toward them. "DUCK!!!" The mares all lowered their heads and Tumor's body flew right over them. Once he was a decent distance away they all sat upright again and the humans went back to wrestling. "That was close."

"No kidding." Derpy said as she munched on her sandwich.
