Canterlot Castle / Party: Nick, Drew, Princesses Celestia and Luna / Time: Sunday, 11:30

It's been 2 days since Andrew left the hospital, in that time Nick and Andrew have been talking with the princesses trying to understand how this world works around here. They had also told them how terrible life was back on Earth, their military history, and their social life before getting teleported here.


"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you your highness's, we should try to do this more often, but with you being so busy and all it can wait for another time." Drew had said. Nick nodding in agreement. Nick and Drew had taken a liking to the princesses, with them being royalty Drew couldn't help but address them as such. Which made them blush from time to time.

"Indeed we shall Mr. Drew, art thou going back to Ponyville in a few hours?" Princess Luna asked the group of humans. They nodded, they said they were going back to Ponyville because Drew had needed a job and Nick had to work today at Sugarcube Corner. in a few moments they had gotten to the train station. Saying their goodbyes and heading on board, Princess Celestia and Luna waving to their new human friends as they walked back to the castle.

"Well, I would say that these humans are a blessing to us, they seem quite friendly as well." Celestia had said.

"Indeed Tia, they may be of use to us with their military history when the time comes. I'm not so sure about Drew with his... uniqueness." Luna replied with hesitation while Princess Celestia nodded and gave a little giggle as they headed back to their rooms.

Ponyville / Party: Drew / Time Sunday, 1:30 PM

' I wonder if the night club would even hire me? I mean I do like parties and stuff, but to go there every other day of the week, I'd rather work at the spa giving ponies massages. In fact, I might apply there too. There's just so many choices, but I just can't decide.'


But then it hit me, literally, Rainbow had crashed into me embracing me with a hug.

"Hey Rainbow, it's been a while huh? Well, it's good to see ya. I have to get going, trying to find a job y'know?" I had said messing up her mane getting the colors mixed.

"DREW! Long time no see, it's good to have you back, but where's Nick?" Rainbow asked as she was squeezing the air out of me.

"Uhmm..Nick...at...Sugarcube..can't...breathe!" As she let go apologizing about that while I had let in a deep breath getting back on to my feet dusting myself off.

"Hey, if it's a job you're looking for, try working at the spa, the nightclub, or something. Oh, I forgot! I need to tell everypony that you guys are back!" Rainbow suggested. Coincidentally that's where the places where I think I might apply to are. She pointed to the direction of the spa. I had decided to go to the nightclub first because I think I had a better shot at getting the job than I did at the spa.

Vinyl Scratch's Nightclub / Party: Drew, Vinyl Scratch / Time: Sunday, 2:30

"Of course I'll hire you! The way you guys brought the house down the other week! How 'bout you work Tuesdays and Thursdays? Tuesdays you can bartend because from what I've heard from Nick, you can make a good drink hopefully one of my bartenders can train you once you get over there I'll let her know you're coming. Thursdays you'll be performing a song, with me of course. Your pay will be 10 bits an hour, you will be working from 8:00 PM to 1:00 AM. How does that sound?" Vinyl just blew my mind, from her hiring me on the spot, as well as getting a good pay, I think this job would be perfect for me. Now, I had to meet the current barmare, so I could get my training, I had noticed that she looked familiar.

"So, I heard you're the new bartender. The name's Berry Punch, sorry about the other day, I didn't know what came over me. So, let's get started!" She started teaching Drew all the skills needed to work here, also applying my own skills when I worked at a bar at one point in time in my life.

"Wow Drew, you're a natural!" Berry congratulated me as I made a really complicated drink in under 10 seconds flat. To be more specific, I had made the signature Bloody Mare, and this Nightclub exclusive drink called the Fruit Rainbow. I headed out into the square to see my 7 friends waiting for me.

"Well? How did it go?" Everypony asked, as I told them what had happened everypony congratulated me and said they might have to visit me sometime to see me perform, behind the bar or on stage. I had the perfect set of songs I would like to play for next Thursday. 'Okay, first for Vinyl's sake I'll play a couple of dubstep songs, then one of my favorites. Just to see how ponies like Asian music. 'As I thought heading toward the *urp* spa. As long as I get paid, I won't mind working here. Smelling all of the conflicting aromas of all the spa care treatment supplies just made me want to dash out of the door.

Sugarcube Corner / Party: Nick, Pinkie / Sunday 5:00 PM / Nick's PoV

"Pinkie, I need an order of two chocolate cupcakes, one buttercream cake, and a pint of mint ice cream!" Nick had yelled back into the kitchen getting an, "Okie Dokie Lokie!"

As a reply back. Pinkie just appeared out of nowhere to deliver the order to the ponies up at the front of the counter waving them off to come back again soon.

"So Pinkie you wanna do anything after we close?" Nick had asked, Pinkie, of course wanted to go pranking, and Nick told Pinkie all about what he did as pranks back on Earth.

First, they decided to try to prank Rainbow Dash, so they gave her a new training headband full of itching powder on it. The attempt was successful, causing Rainbow to start scratching her mane out, metaphorically. Pinkie Pie decided on the next victim, which was Twilight, they had decided to get Drew to go along, he wasn't in a rush to go apply at the spa anyway.

"So, how's this gonna work?" I had asked, Pinkie with a giant grin on her face. Telling us to try and get Twilight to eat this apple.

"So just try and get Twilight to eat this apple, and when it happens, and you'll know when it happens, you gotta haul flank and meet me back at Sugarcube Corner!" Pinkie could explain in the easiest way possible.

We both headed our way into Twilight's library, greeting Twi on our way in.

"Oh hey guys, what brings you here?" Twi said as she looked up from her book, her stomach growling at the sight of the apple Drew was holding in his palm.

"Oh we're just here to check up on you, we did just get back into town a few hours ago." I had said with a smirk on my face waiting for the right moment.

"Heh, so you want this Twi? I thought you would. Here have it, I don't want it, I'm full from earlier." Drew had said handing her the apple.

"Thanks Drew, I owe ya one" She said before eating the apple, eventually she was shrinking in size, since I'm in a land of magical talking ponies, I wasn't surprised. We hauled ass back to Sugarcube Corner with Pinkie motioning her hoof to follow her. Thankfully we lost Twilight, it wasn't hard to outrun her in her miniature size but she was pretty fast for a miniature pony. I had taken a picture of her before running away showing it to Pinkie, she was laughing her flank off when she saw miniature Twilight, and then all of us said in unison , "Awwwwwwww, she looks so adorable when she's mad!"

And then gave a hearty chuckle. after an hour long pranking spree, we decided to call it quits because Drew had to go to the spa before it closes and Pinkie had to babysit Mr. and Mrs. Cakes' foals.

Ponyville Day Spa / Party: Drew / Time: Sunday, 6:05 PM

"So, you want to work for us, eh?" Aloe had said with a smirk on her face.

"What makes you think you can work for us?" Lotus had said raising the tension higher in the atmosphere, making to where it's hard for me to talk. Reclaiming my composure, I had came up with a few good reasons to why and how I am going to work for them.

"Well, believe it or not, I was a masseuse when I got my first job, and secondly, I have these babies." I said flexing my fingers.

"Well, maybe you can be our new masseuse, the last one quit for no reason, saying that he needed a permanent break," Aloe had said, "But first we must need you to pass a test, to see if you're worth hiring." Lotus said in a seductive manner.

"Well, to pass your test, you must give me a massage. Just to see how well you are at doing this." Lotus said while pulling me into the massaging room, against my own will of course.

' Well, since I have no other choice if I want to get this job, mine as well get started. ' I had thought in my head, while grabbing the massaging oil and started to rub my hands together with it. I was always good at picking oils for the right type of people, I started with her jaw muscles, working my way down very slowly down to her neck, undoing any stress related knots in her neck. I could feel a lot of tension here, well, it isn't easy running a spa with it being so busy so I guess that could be a reason for her being so tense.

"Well, Lotus, there seems to be a lot of tension going on here. Have you been stressed out lately?" I had asked her all she did was mumble, "Mmhmm, the spa has been really busy lately, so we haven't had time to do any R & R sadly." Once I had finished, Lotus was so loose it was hard for her to walk even stumbling over from time to time.

After a short discussion, they both agreed on something turning around and saying all at the same time, "You're hired, you can work Mondays and Fridays, you can also show up to do some overtime and earn extra bits when you don't work that day, you will work from 10:30 until 6:00, you will be payed 8 bits an hour. See you tomorrow!" Th wins have waved me off, my fist job working for ponies will be starting at 10:30, tomorrow. Seeing that my clothes were so grimy, I wanted to see Rarity, but I had no money, so I decided to wash them over at Twilight's House, earn some bits tomorrow, and ask her to make me some more civilianized clothes. Not wanting to look like a god damn soldier everywhere I go.

The Nightclub / Party: Drew / Time: Tuesday, 10:00 PM

"Well Rainbow, I didn't know you came to the nightclub so often." I had said while she gulped down another swig of Hard Cider, the extra hard kind. By the time I had said that she was already drunk. She had told me she comes here on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, practicing her drinking skills for her drink-off with Applejack she had next Tuesday.

"Y'know Rainbow, I am a hardcore drinker, I can always do it for you if you can't handle this much alcohol?" I had suggested. Even though she was drunk and her words slurred she agreed, she couldn't take all the alcohol.

"But *hic* be warnered *hic* Applejack can drink like 10 bottles of *hic* Celestial Sunshines!" ' Equivalent to bourbon ' As she said that it made me wonder what that kind of drink is.

"Well Rainbow, I can drink around 5 gallons of Luna's Moonshine." I whispered to her, I didn't know Luna really did haved a recipe for moonshine, but I can drink regular moonshine like it was Soft Cider, but I could see Rainbow's eyed wide open, and sobered up for a second saying, "But that's IMPOSSIBLE! The world record for somepony drinking Luna's Moonshine is like 3 quarts before passing out!" She said as she drunked up again just as fast as she sobered up.

"Well, I ain't a pony Rainbow, and where I come from, the alcohol is 10 times stronger than the beer they sell here." I had said secretively. As it just hit 1:00 in the morning Rainbow finally passed out on the floor. I had grabbed her and my pay, and walked back to Twilight's House.' Man, if the alcohol is so weak, I wonder what it's like when ponies get hangovers. ' I had wondered chuckling, so as I got home, I put Rainbow in my bed to sleep and I went down to go sleep on the couch. Waking up only a few hours later to go back to the spa.
