CYOA #64
You cry out your command, possibly misspeaking in the process, and quickly make your way back to the entrance. Being that you hadn’t gone far, it wasn’t hard to remember how to get there.
Unfortunately, if anything the noise has become louder! Not sure exactly what to do now, you turn around and look down the curved hallway. You can hear the constant hum and occasional buzzing of electricity now matched by a flicker of light from deeper down the hallway.
You were about to make a split-second decision when an arc of black lightning shoots from out of sight and dances across the wall, no less than two meters away from you, and dissipates when it reaches the floor.
Glancing back, your friends are wide-eyed and panicking. Your keen perception picks up no trace of recognition from Princess or Amy; they don’t know anything more about a shadow shooting lightning than you do.
I'm back, sorry I kinda left... It turned out she was at home... I didn't see her... Pinkie Pie was there when I left so I dont know... I have to get home for lunch though, I'll be back a bit later... hugs?
Alright. Have a good day, Strawberry.
Happy Hearth’s Warming!
So that means you and Boscov are free to do things you normally wouldn't do with a foal around? Like tell violent jokes, or talk about the current diplomatic relationship between griffins and buffalo?

Ah… Yeah. But I didn’t have any of those in mind.
So whatever did you get Bon-Bon?

Not really for me to say anymore; it’s out of my hooves. You could try asking her.
I can’t tell if she liked it or not…
So where will Sweetie be while you and Boscov are in Manehatten?
Anonymous
With her parents.
She can’t stay with Bon-Bon because she’ll still have to work.
I'm going to check home... I'll come back later to visit you... are you okay?
Yeah, I’m fine.
Haven’t you found her, though? I thought you had.
Trixie... I woke up and I didn't see her...
Sounds like it’s all okay now, though.
Got any gag gifts this year?

A pair of human khaki pants.
I put ‘em on and strutted.
You're hungry? I'm guessing Boscov didn't make a feast like he said he would.
Anonymous
No no; he did. He also made a huge breakfast so I couldn’t eat but so much for dinner.
There’s lots of leftovers.
You're my Daddy. And Boscov is my Mommy.

Were you sure to eat enough that you feel as though you won't want to eat for another five days?

Actually, I’m hungry again.
Excuse me for a bit.
But why are you leaving me alone while you and Mommy go to Manehatten?

Did you just call me a dude?
*walks up to you crying* My mom is missing... where is my mom? can you find my mom? *sits on the ground and curls up into the fetal position* my mom is gone...
Wait, what?
Who’s missing?
Daddy, why do you and Mommy have to leave?
