It was the next day, and I still felt tired but it was time to finally start to training Haki so I crossed my legs on my bed, and started meditating like Ed told me, then my Aura I had cover me.

'Ok now I have to master making only cover a part of my body.' I thought as I closed my eyes and concentrated.

To saw it was hard was an understatement it was like trying to push down a spring that was 3 maybe 4 times larger than yourself without help or anything holding you down, the more I pushed the more it pushes back against me.

The most I could do was make it not cover one of my arms, but I guess that was good progress if I could uncover an entire limb.

I continued this for 1 or two hours before I decided to stop for the day as Chibi Ed jumped onto my bed.

"Any progress?" He asked me.

"I made a little but it will still take time to do it." I told him then there was a loud knocking on the door.

I got up, and grabbed my rifle before heading towards the door to see to guards, and Celestia looking out the window of a carriage.

I walked out of my house, then closed the door as I headed towards the carriage. After getting in the carriage I saw she looked a little worried.

"What's wrong is it Grimm again?" I asked her as the carriage took off.

"No it involves the strange magic disturbance we found, it's something you need to see, I can't really explain it here but you'll understand when we get there." She told me as she looked back out the window.

'Looks like she won't tell me anything till we get there." I said, as I also looked out the window.

It took us several hours to get there and we were flying over a forest but a large chunk had been cleared recently, that is when we started to decided, and landed in the cleared space.

We got out of the carriage, then she started to lead me to an old building but it looked strangely familiar like saw it yesterday familiar

'Wait a minute it can't be.' I thought then jogged up to the front of it, and right above the door it said in large letters ATLAS.

"How?" I asked shocked as I stared at it then Celestia walked up to me.

"I would like to know that as well but it only opens to hunters." She told me then beside the door a hand scanner came out of the wall.

"We have tried everything but we haven't made a dent in it." She told me then I put my hand against the scanner then a line went across the screen.

ScanNIng

A glitching robotic voice said then it dinged.

Welcome Winter SToRm.

I was so glad it knew I was a hunter then the door opened. "Shall we go inside?" Celestia asked as she was the first to step inside that atlas outpost.

I was right behind here as several guards followed behind me.

The place looked like an old lab that was long abandoned but the equipment was completely intact along with blueprints on a metal table. They were blueprints for artificial limbs like legs, arms, even eyes, it also looks like they were making great strides in making artificial organs.

I looked to my left to see a few models of the eyes, along with some notes, they served the same purpose as a scroll which is a holographic tablet, but it but they also had so many other purposes pictures, recording, it even has a flashlight, heat vision, night vision, and can also zoom in on thing's miles away, and it didn't even look like they were completely finished, but it was ready for use.

I saw a switch not far so I flipped it, and the lights all around the room turned on, and the irises of the eyes switched color frequently that was when I also noticed a window that looked into another room.

"So this is the technology your people has access to?" Celestia asked as she looked at one of the blueprints.

"Yes thought just from looking at these blueprints this outpost made mostly medical equipment." I told as as I looked around then one of the guards spoke up.

"I don't know about that." One of them said as he glanced at another metal table.

I walked over to it to see the blueprints of some kind of flying vehicle.

"Can you make since of any of this?" He asked.

"No clue the only thing I can figure out is its powered by gravity dust." I told him then moved to the window to see the lights were just coming on to show equipment, an assembly line, carts filled with dust of every kind likely for experimentation.

"Well this is interesting." I said then I could Tell Celestia was behind me looking at what I was seeing.

"I believe you'll be wanting the dust?" She asked with amazement clear in her voice.

"I highly doubt I could fit all this in my house, but I will let you know when I need dust." I told her before walking away.

After about an hour of those of the magic blood had teleported almost everything back to Canterlot, then me and Celestia were on our way back to ponyville.

"So what will you do with the tech?" I asked her.

"Well we will try to replicate it, and with it save lives maybe even improve them, but it might takes months maybe years to grasp this technology." She said and during the rest of our trip we talked about things but just as we're about ponyville she asked me.

"I've been wanting to ask you can you bring out my aura." She asked.

I closed my eyes to take a deep breath, then breathed out. "An aura can be as much as a curse as it is a blessing are your sure you want this?" I asked with a serious voice.

"Yes the grimm have been terrorizing us for two long, and while my sister and I have the power to defeat them I believe I need more to protect my kingdom." She said while looking out the window then I took another deep breath.

"Ok give me your hand, and I will begin." I told her, and she her hand then I closed my eyes as my aura surrounded me.

"For it is in passing that we achieve immortality. Through this we become a paragon of virtue and glory to rise above all, infinite in distance and unbound by death. I release your soul and by my shoulder protect thee." I said then I felt severely weakened as I opened my eyes to see a golden aura like her magic surrounding her, before disappearing.

"Looks like I'll need to extend my vacation." I told her as I felt the exhaustion wash over me. "So for your semblance you'll be on your own I can't help you." I explained just as we landed.

"I'll see to it that you aren't bothered for the next few days." She told me as I got out of the carfage then walked into my house then immediately went upstairs to collapse in my bed.

{Next day}

I woke up still tired but Rarity was sitting in a chair next to me, with a smile on her face.

"Good morning darling sleep well." She said as she hugged me.

"How long have you been here?" I asked her.

"Just a few minutes, I also received a message from Celestia explaining how tired you might be so I also made you some breakfast." She said as she lifted up a tray with some toast and scrambled eggs.

"Thank you." I said as I sat up then she set the tray on my lap, then started eating slowly.

When I had eaten everything Rarity took the tray off my lap then sat on the side of the bed. "So I was thinking we could go on another date today." She said before kissing my cheek.

"That sounds like a great Idea I need to get my mind off things." I said before getting out of bed then i saw there were small cuts, and dust in my cloths.

'Must have gotten messed up in the outpost somehow.' I thought then Rarity said.

"These are dreadful come to my boutique I made some clothes for you incase something happened." She said then she almost literally dragged me to her place then showed me a nice white suite with a blue tie.

"I like it." I said as I examined it.

"I thought you would I took the color scheme of what you normally wear, and put it on most of your clothing." She told me then I hugged her.

"Thank you so where do you want to go?" I asked as I took the suite off the display.

I went to another room them put them on, it fit perfectly then after putting my hat on. "So where do you want to go?" I asked again as I stepped out, to see her wearing a red dress that went to her feet, and was cut along the left side till it reached between her knee and waist.

"I know a good place and I have something to tell you after we get there." She said then we walked to another restaurant.

"Is this new?" I asked her but she shook her head.

"No but the food here is expensive mostly only nobles that pass through town eat here plus those with a lot of money." She told me as we walked in.

After getting seated we gave the waiter our orders, and Rarity couldn't stop smiling. "So what did you want to tell me?" I asked.

"Oh right I wanted to tell you that I got a letter saying I was invited to a dress competition, and they gave me two tickets, and a room for two, I was thinking we could go together I already arranged for a friend to keep an eye on Sweetie Belle." She told me.

"I'd love to go with you." I told her then she reached over the table to kiss my forehead.

For the next hour we talked, and ate our food before leaving the restaurant, and immediately bumped into a girl, and when I looked at her I could tell she was gonna cause trouble.

"Hey watch where your going!" She shouted at us.

"Hey we're sorry." I said.

"Yeah you better be bitch." She said with a smug then I punched her in the face sending her to the ground.

"Who's the bitch now." I said popping my knuckles as she stood up then she tried to throw a punch but I caught it then tripped her. "Come on let's go Rarity." I said then we begin walking home.

Then suddenly a rock hit me in the back of the head, so I looked behind me to see the girls hands were now wrapped in an ethereal glow as pointed ended where now visable on her hands.

I turned back around then popped my neck this time as ethereal wings sprouted from her back, then she flew towards me.

I simply made ice form around her till she was so heavy she fell to the ground. Walked towards her then got on one knee as I reached her.

"Try that again and you might not be able to walk for the rest of your life." I told her before taking Rarity hand and left.

Not long after Pinkie appeared this dissapered leaving two invitations to a party for Rainbows old friend Gilda.

After getting Rarity got into her normal Clothes we went to Sugar cube corner to see the same girl that called me a bitch.

She whispered something in Rainbows ear then walked over then yelled. "So your the one that attacked her for no reason."

Rarity looked at the girl with disgust before she said? "That is not what happened, after leaving a restaurant, we bumped into her"

"Then attacked her." Rainbow interrupted, and I had just had enough.

"No after saying sorry she called me a bitch that's when I hit her." I told her then Rainbow crossed her arms.

"Gilda would never do that, your lying." She accused.

"Fine then after the party bring Twilight to Rarity's, then she can use a spell to find out the truth about your friend?" I said before me and Rarity walked home.
