While Swift Blaze was sleeping, he was visited by Master Roshi (God) again. They did some agility training. Some were DBZ style, others were with the chakra from Naruto. The latter took longer, as the former human had to find it within him and learn how to control it. The last part was flight control with ki energy. The ground changed into a rubber elastic compound. The human needed it, as he fell quite frequently.

Before Blaze woke up to the real world, he said, “So, should I expect to do this training every night in my sleep?”

”No. Tomorrow night you can take a break.” God’s body shifted forms. ”The next night, we are going to work on the hard stuff.

Great, I went from a master to a major.

”What did you think about me, boy!

The human stood straight up and said, “Sir! Nothing, sir!”

With that, the white space vanished from his sight. He wakes up, just before falling off the couch. Ow. The Earth pony saw it was about an hour just before dawn. He decided to watch the sunrise. Also, he should do some muscle training in on this pony body.

He headed outside into the cool air and slight mist in the air. The air here is so clean. I still can’t believe what we lived in back on Earth. All from the pollutions and toxic fumes we were pouring into the atmosphere, I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did. Blaze started his routine with a quick gallop down the road. The pony did this until he came to an open field with a nice hill. He walked to the top, thinking about the next part of the training. The moment Blaze reached the top, he could see the sunrise about to start. The pony sat down as he watched the sun slowly rise into the sky. Such a beautiful view of the mountains and landscape. I really want to capture the moment, but it will have to wait till I am human again so I can use my phone to take the pic.

Once satisfy with the view, Blaze went back to training. He started with stretches to see how his pony body can handle it. From there, the Earth pony practiced standing on his hind legs in different positions. He fell on his flank more times than he liked, but he had a feeling this will be needed soon.

After an hour, Blaze headed back to Fluttershy's cottage to see if she was awake. Upon arriving there, his nose could smell something delicious cooking. He headed to the kitchen to see Fluttershy cooking something good. “Morning Fluttershy. What smells delicious?” He said.

“Eep!” Fluttershy squeaked as Blaze had startled her. “Oh, Blaze, I did not hear you come in. I saw you left when I woke up. For some reason, I couldn’t figure how I woke up in my bed. Did you carry me to my bed last night?”

“I did. I could not take your bed as you took the couch. I just wasn’t right. Hope you don’t mind.”

“Not at all. I just hoped you slept well on the couch. If you don’t mind, can you tell me where you went this morning?”

“It is never a problem, Fluttershy. I went out to watch the sunrise and to get some practice in on using this pony body. I realize now I can't do some of the same stuff my human body could do." Blaze said as he rubbed one fore hoof on his flank. "So, what are you cooking up?”

“Oh, just some pancakes, with a side of fruit. Would you like a plate, if that is okay with you?”

“I would love one. I’m sure anything you cook will taste very good.” She hoofed Blaze a plate to the table. He sat down there and started to eat. She joined him with a plate of her own.

Once he licked the plate clean, literally, Blaze said, “I was correct. You do cook some delicious food. Seeing you cooked, please, allow me to clean up. Then, we can go and take care of your animals.”

“Oh, I couldn’t allow you to clean up. You are a guest in my cottage. Please, allow me.”

“Sorry, Fluttershy, but I insist on doing the cleanup to show my gratitude.”

Blaze picked up the plates and cooking equipment. As he scrubbed everything clean, a thought came to him, Huh, I'm able to hold onto this stuff without thinking hard about it. Must be that passive magic all ponies have the fimfic stories always mentioned. Cool to see it in action.

The two ponies went outside and started to feed the animals. She was showing Blaze what to feed them and how. "You have to do it this way so they wouldn’t be scared of you. Isn't that right, my cute little animal friends?" The Earth pony found it was relaxing to watch the animals eat in the beautiful scenery.

“Would you mind accompanying me to the market? I need to pick up some more feed for my animals.” Fluttershy asked.

“I would love to.”

They grabbed some saddle bags from inside before leaving. Angel decided to tag along by riding on the back of Fluttershy. Once at the edge of town, Blaze followed the Pegasus to the market. He was still figuring out where everything is. They came to vendor that sold animal feed of all kinds. She purchased her usual amount. The Earth pony had put more of the feed on himself, so Fluttershy did not have to carry so much, and that it would help strengthen his legs with the extra load.

As they approached the town square, Blaze saw Twilight chatting with Rainbow, Applejack, Rarity, and Pinkie. Spike was there also, and holding something shiny in his claws. Angel bolted off Fluttershy and ran toward the dragon. The bunny snagged the shiny objects and brought the items to the yellow Pegasus to see. Once they came into view the red Earth pony saw that they were two gold tickets to some event. It took a few seconds for him to realize that they are the tickets to the Grad Galloping Gala. Oh boy. Twilight is going to have a fun day today.

Swift Blaze and Fluttershy, along with Angel, joined the girls in their conversation on who should get the second ticket. Blaze cleared his throat and said, “May I interject for a moment? What is this event you all are arguing about?”

Each one told him about how big the event is and what each one dreamed of doing there. “I see. Well, I hate to be rude, but you should give Twilight her space so she can think of who she wants to give the second ticket to. I personally don’t want to go as I can’t stand fancy parties.” said Blaze.

“This is my decision, and I'm gonna make it on my own, and I certainly can't think straight with all this noise." Twilight said in frustration. They all nodded and wandered off in separate directions.

Blaze returned with Fluttershy to her cottage and dropped off the feed. "I'm going to check on Twilight. She looked like she couldn’t decide on who to choose." he said.

"I do hate to see my friend so worried up about it. Maybe there is something I can do to cheer her up." said Fluttershy.

"I suggest to not do anything too big. She might think you are only doing that to get the ticket.“

Blaze left and started to look for the purple Unicorn. He found her sitting at a table outside a cafe with Spike. Twilight had her head on the table. The Earth pony walked over to join them and said, "Um, Twilight, you okay?"

"Oh, hi Swift Blaze.” Twilight said. She picked her head up. “I'm not doing so well. I just can't decide who I should give the other ticket to. They all have good reason to go, and I don't want to disappoint them.”

"Have you thought of asking Princess Celestia about getting more tickets for all your friends?"

"I can't ask that! Don't you know how hard it is to get these tickets? It is a very exclusive and big event that anypony who is anypony will be attending. I just can't ask the Princess for more tickets."

"To answer the first part, no I don't. I just came to your world. For the second part, I do think she would give you the tickets as you are her student, one of the barriers of the Elements of Harmony, and especially your friend."

Twilight smiled at Blaze. She believed that he might be right.

"Now then, let’s order something. I’m starving." Blaze’s stomach rumbled in response.

Twilight giggled and agreed. She levitated a menu to him. He looked it over and saw most of the dishes either contained some flower or hay. Even though I am in a pony body, I can’t convince myself to eat those. The Earth pony went for a basic salad. Twilight ordered a daffodil and daisy sandwich. Spike had the hay fries, but extra crispy.

The food arrived soon after. Before they could chow down, nearby ponies were running into the buildings. Oh great. I recall this scene. The waiter asked Twilight and company from the door if they wanted to eat their food in the rain.

“It’s not raining.” said the Unicorn. She looked around and saw that everywhere else nearby was raining, except the spot they were at.

Blaze just said, “I will give you one guess what could have done this.”

She thought for a moment. Once the name came to her, her voice was loud enough for the culprit to hear it, “Rainbow Dash!”

Rainbow popped her head over the opening above them. “Hi there, best friend forever I've ever, ever had. Enjoying the sunny weather?” said Rainbow Dash with a smile.

As they go back and forth about doing favors, Blaze started to chow down his food before the cloud opening was zipped up. The rain then fell on them. It caused the uneaten food to get soggy. Twilight’s frustration rose higher than before.

Soon after, Rarity showed up. She had an umbrella saddle on her keeping the white Unicorn dry. She invited all of them to dry off at her shop, but Blaze knew this pony had other motives. The Earth pony decided to intervene here.

“Hey Rarity, would you mind getting my measurements?” asked Blaze. “I would also like to see the outfit design you want to do for me.”

Rarity’s eyes sparkled at the thought. “Oh! It will be my pleasure! Oh, I have so many design ideas! I don’t know where to start. But first, we should get your measurements. Want to make sure they will fit you correctly. Please stand here and hold still.”

As the red Earth pony was getting measured, he mouthed to Twilight to meet her at her library. She nodded and left with Spike.

Time passed and Blaze felt he was standing there for an hour. But it had only been fifteen minutes. “Okay, darling, in a few hours, I should have the first design of many I have planned for you. You can either wait here, or come back.” said Rarity.

“I think I will wait here. If I could put my suggestion into it, I would like no gems. I prefer something that is comfortable, but should also be stealthy. Fabric that doesn’t make noise when you move about.” said Blaze.

“Interesting. I haven't done something like that before. What are you planning, Swift Blaze?" Rarity looked at him with a questionable look.

“Nothing! Nothing at all!” Blaze quickly replied. “ I just like that style of clothing. Kinda like that gi outfit my human form was wearing when I arrived.”

“So that is the name of that style. Well, it will be a challenge, but I’m up for it. I’ll come get you when the design is done.”

“Thank you. I’ll go take a seat in the front.” Rarity nodded, then headed off to her workshop in the back. Blaze got comfortable on the sofa Wonder if God wouldn’t mind if I do some personal training in that space.

Blaze closed his eyes and focused on entering his mind. When he opened them, he was back in the white space. He looked around and saw how boring this was.

“Wish I could practice in someplace those DBZ fighter had fought in.” said Blaze.

The area changed to an open area with huge rocks. Huh, that was easy. Can I get a bacon double cheeseburger? Nothing happens.

Blaze turned his attention back to the task at hand, more training. He's been focusing on physical movement with God. He thinks this might be a good time to try some type of energy blast. The human focused the energy to his right hand. A red orb started to form just above it. He focused more energy into it, causing the sphere to grow bigger and shine brighter. Once it was the size of a softball, he launched it into a rock that was a good distance away. The rock exploded into dust.

"Yikes. I need to dial the energy down a peg or two. Anything more and you can kiss the planet goodbye."

Blaze scaled the energy he was using down. He continued to launch and adjust until he would cause cracks to spread out in the rocks.

With that done with, the next thing he wanted to practice more of was ki flying. Recalling this early morning routine, Blaze focused his ki to below his body. The skin on his arms and head was feeling the wind around him, blowing in all directions. The human increased the energy flow. Soon enough, he was off the ground. Just as the human was about to fly in this mind space, a shattering scream came from the distance. This knocked him back to the real world.

When Blaze opened his eyes, he was upside down in front of the couch. He looked around for the source of the scream. The Earth pony soon saw Rarity, standing at the entrance of her workshop, with a frightened look on her face.

“What’s going on?” Blaze asked. "And why am I upside down?"

Rarity did her best to compose herself. Then, in a scared tone, said, “I just got done with your outfit and came in to show when, I saw you floating above the couch! What in Equestria were you doing?”

Woah, guess my flying also occurred in the real world while in my mind. Glad none of those energy blast became real also. I need something to explain this. thought Blaze. “Um, I was trying to recall any other skill or ability that was placed in my head. I guess that I can float or something.”

“Are you saying you discovered a way for non-Pegasus to fly?”

“I don’t know anything about that. This ability is something I’m still figuring out. I didn’t think this pony body would be able to it.” Blaze changed the subject to avoid any more questions on this. “So, what is the new outfit you made?”

“Well, when I first saw your outfit in that, um, human body, I thought it was repulsive. But, after hearing about yourself and what you like, I can see how clothing can serve a function instead of being fashionable. So, for you, my dear friend, Swift Blaze, your new outfit for your pony form is a gi. Should feel the same like what you had, I just had to get your measurements to make sure it will fit.”

Rarity’s horn lit up as she levitated the outfit from the work shop. The style was an exact match. “Thank you so much Rarity! I can’t believe how you were able to get the design down just by seeing it on me. You really do have an eye for fashion design. Expect to see me soon when I need some other clothing to be made.”

“It’s not a problem, dear. I look forward to your future business. Now allow me to help put this on you so you can really admire it.”

“That might be a good thing as I don’t know how to put clothes on in pony form.”

She giggled at the comment. In a short time, Blaze was wearing his outfit in front of the full three angle view mirrors. Everything fit perfectly. Blaze turned his head to the Unicorn and said, “Again, Rarity, you did an outstanding job in recreating my gi outfit. You sure I can’t do anything to pay you back?”

“Of course not, darling. You are my friend and I love to make things for my friends with no payment in mind.”

“Thank you, again. Now then, if you excuse me, I am going to take my leave.”

She nodded and went back to her workshop.

Once Blaze was outside, he decided to check on Twilight Sparkle and Spike to see how they were doing. It didn't take the Earth pony long to find out. He went around a corner and saw a group of ponies tossing another pony above them in front of the Library. Seeing Twilight needing some possible help, Blaze ran toward the crowd. He was almost there, but then saw the purple Unicorn and small dragon that was holding her tail ran off in another direction with everyone else chasing them.

Oh goody, time for the chase scene. Better pick up the pace. thought Blaze. While running, he started to push chakra to his hooves. This allowed him to make quick jumps and gain some speed. Within a minute, the Earth pony had caught up to the pair.

Blaze shouted, “TWILIGHT! SPIKE! GET ON MY BACK IF YOU WANT TO ESCAPE!" as he ran alongside them.

Twilight looked over and said, "Blaze!? Where did you come from?"

"No time for questions! Quickly, get on!"

Spike jumped from Twilight's back and onto Swift Blaze's. Twilight soon followed. Blaze felt the increased weight on his back, but the pony body was able to handle it.

"Buckle up. We are about to shift into Turbo!"

Before Twilight or Spike could respond, Blaze pushed more chakra to his hooves. This allowed him to increase his jump distance. The Earth pony was getting away from the mob that were chasing them. He went into an alley when Blaze guessed he had about a ten second lead. Time to go where they won't expect us to be. Blaze thought as he charged up his ki.

As the stallion stood still, Twilight said to him, "Bob, how did you . . . AHHH!!!"

The Earth pony just forced his ki with all he could down to the ground. This sent him and the others on his back up into the sky. Twilight and Spike screamed as they gained altitude. Twilight's mind was trying to figure out how this Earth pony was doing this

Blaze flew into a thick cloud to hide them. He whispered, “Ok, please quiet down. We don’t want them to find out where we went. Agreed?"

Twilight and Spike nodded while they finished recovering from the adrenaline rush. Both still couldn't believe what had happened.

"I will explain how I did this once we are safe.”

Blaze slowly poked his head out to see if the coast was clear. When it was, he flew them back to the library. Once back on solid ground at the front door, they hopped off the Earth pony and started to kiss the ground.

They went inside after that quick happy period. The Unicorn closed the door quickly. She then turned to Spike and said, "Quick! Close and lock all the windows and barricade the doors."

The lights turned on. Blaze saw Rainbow, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy had been waiting for them to come back. Twilight’s stress finally got to her as she confessed to them why she hadn’t been able to make a decision. Her friends saw how bad this was making the purple Unicorn feel. Each one decided and told her that they no longer wanted the ticket for different reasons.

Hearing their new decisions, Twilight felt relieved. She now knew what she should have done. “Spike, take a letter to Princess Celestia.” she said.

Spike grabbed a scroll and quill and started to write down what she wanted to say. The mares gasped when they heard she was returning both tickets.

"I do not want to go to the Gala without all of my friends." Twilight said to everyone in the room.

With the letter done, Spike blew his flame onto the scroll. It turned into a smoke, heading to Princess Celestia. A few minutes later, Spike belched a letter and read it out loud,

My faithful student, Twilight Sparkle,

Why didn't you say so in the first place.

Six tickets appeared. All the mares cheered as they could all go to the Gala.

Blaze said to them, “Have fun at the Gala. Spike and I can use that time for a guy’s night out.”

Spike did another belch and another scroll appeared. It read,

To Spike and Swift Blaze,

I forgot to include tickets for you two in the previous scroll. Enjoy your time at the Gala.

Your Sun Ruler,

Princess Celestia.

Two tickets appeared with this scroll. “Looks we have our escorts to the Gala, now.” Rarity said.

Blaze replied to the comment with one of his own, “It also looks you will have to make me a tux for my pony and the human form if you want me to escort you girls to the Gala.”

Her smile went almost ear to ear. The white Unicorn’s eyes glittered as different designs were going through her head.

Twilight Sparkle's stomach rumbled, breaking the festive mood. The other mares decided to treat her to dinner for the grief they had caused their friend. Twilight only accepted if Blaze and Spike could join them. They all nodded.

On their way to the diner, the purple Unicorn said to the red Earth pony, "Once we place our orders, you have some explaining to do."

Blaze only response was, "Aww, <censor beep>."
