"I suppose I can show them off. Although they might on be as spectacular as that card of yours." Boa raises his hoof, pointing at his belt. On the surface, it seemed just like a normal belt.

"This is one of my...gadgets that were damaged by the flood. It may seem like a simple belt, but inside the buckle is a small sheet of paper with a magical rune."

Boa stepped back and looks around for a few seconds, taking in his surroundings, before pressing a button on the belt. With a flash, he teleported out of the room. A few seconds later, he returned, holding a Royal Guard Helmet in his hooves. "This belt allows me to teleport."

He walks over to Mr. Winks' Table, putting all of the items in his bags on the table. Three rings, the wands, and the cartridges.

"Now here are the real meat and potatoes of my tools."


(Splitting this between posts because I dont wanna make this too long lol)

The doors opened, and Boa entered the room, walking into Mr. Winks office. Boa smiled.

"I have to say, this place of yours is pretty amazing. Blows my old set-up right out of the water."

Boa walks closer, extending his hoof for a shake. "I suppose I should properly introduce myself. The name is Captain Boa, Artificer Extraordinaire."

Boa took a deep breath, it only dawned on him now that he was nervous. A smile formed on his face as his nervousness was replaced with excitement. It had been a long time since he had felt like this. Stepping into the elevator, he pressed the button that led him to Mr. Winks' office. As the elevator began to move, Boa took another deep breath.

"Lets make a good second impression.
44
"Oh, don't worry. I have every intention of joining."


Boa looks around the room he was shown, taking in the sights. He was liking what he was seeing, he was even more excited to really see these Storm Chasers in action.
45
Boa let out a quiet laughter. "We just had a small exchange of words."
46
Boa smiled. "The name is Boa. As for why I'm here? Lets just say your boss is one interesting fellow. Between him and the work you folks did down near Ponyville, I couldn't help but check this place out."
47
Finally, Boa had finished his repairs on his belt, a new piece of paper with a fresh magical rune written on it, he carefully placed it within the inside of the custom-made buckle and closed it, watching as the belt began to glow with magical energies. He smiled at his work. Strapping on his belt, as well as adjusting the rest of his outfit, he was ready.

But...not without a few last minute preparations. He turned around to a closet, behind it, was a faint glow. "I'm going to need to change up my devices, not going to be needing much offense where I'm going, I assume. A support set-up will be perfect."

Boa chose to keep his cartridges of Admonishing Ray, Arcane Eye, Water Breathing, and Ant Haul. But took out the rest. He opened up the closet, revealing hundreds upon hundreds of cartridges, each with their own unique color. He put the remainder of the cartridges from his saddlebags into the closet, while pulling out several new ones.

"Lets see, Mighty Strength, that'll work well with Ant Haul. Stoneskin is a good choice as well, and Haste will be perfect." He put the three new cartridges into his bags, but he was not finished yet, opening up a drawer in his counter, revealing numerous wands, he pulled out a set of wands. "Lets see, Mending will definitely be an asset, and we can't go wrong with a whole set of healing spells."

Boa put all the wands into the bags, and closed everything up. He then sent a letter, using a candle of Dragon Fire, to a friend to watch the store while he checked out these Storm Chasers.


It took him awhile, between asking around and many, many detours, but Boa eventually found himself in front of the headquarters of the Storm Chasers.

Boa just notices a small note on the floor, using his natural magic, he levitates it back up onto the counter. "She must have dropped this."

He pockets it, making sure to return it to her the next time he saw her. Boa returns to his work, once again.
49
Boa watches her fly off, he sighs and goes back to his work.
50
Boa looks up, seeing the mare who helped him. He smiles and gives a quick wave, before going back to his work.
51
Boa had just woken up to the sight of the mare who had helped him get back home flying out of his bedroom. Still half asleep the realization dawns on him that she had spent the night in his home. Boa fell back onto his bed, looking at the now empty side of his bed. A look of sadness fills him as he remembers an old friend.

Closing his eyes, and letting out a small sigh, he pushes himself out of bed and gets ready, taking a quick shower before getting dressed in his usual outfit. He straps on his saddlebags and walks out of his room. Reaching into his bags, he looks back at the card he received from that pony yesterday.


As he recalls the events that had happened last night, Boa soon finds himself in front of a store. It was a large, green and black store, on the top, a massive emblem of a Silver Snake eating its own tail was displayed on the outside. This was Boa's shop. The Silver Ouroboros. Boa walked in, using a key to unlock the door. As he stepped in, the room was filled with multiple magical lights, illuminating the room, showing off all kinds of wands, rings, bracelets, enchanted armor, potions, you name it. He walked over towards the counter, setting his belt down and opening it up. He took out the destroyed piece of paper, and pulled out a fresh piece of paper and some ink. It would be awhile before he could go and meet these Storm Chasers, he had to make sure everything of his was fixed.
52
(Its fine, lol.)
53
Boa smiles. "I'd appreciate that."

(Then next day, I guess. Kinda wanted to do a little more RP, but hey.)
54
Boa sighed. "The train will probably be out until this whole mess gets cleaned up. Guess I'm hoofing it to Canterlot."
55
Boa let out a whistle. "Gotta get my hands on that one." He looked at the card given to him. "Storm Chasers, eh? Sounds like they'd be right up my alley." Looking around, he made a careful jump onto a larger building. "Going to need some repairs done on my belt before then. Now...how to get out of this mess I'm in?"

He looked around for the safest path. He began hopping from building to building until he reached a small spot where he could jump onto dry land. Catching his breath, he wiped a bit of sweat from his forehead. As he catches his breath, he lets out a laugh. "Ah...I miss the old days. I miss being in these kind of dangerous situations."

He stands up, looking at the card once more. "Right then. Repairs first, then we're going to say hello to these dangerous ponies..."
56
Boa watched as the board was moved, turning back towards the other pony and what he said. He couldn't help but smile. He jumped off onto the pile of debris, and turned towards the pony. "I'm afraid you've caught me at a bit of a disadvantage. Many of my tools got damaged in this flood."

He laughed. "Otherwise, you would have seen a more...graceful finish."
57
Boa turned to see the survivors getting rescued and flown out. However, one of them decided to stay, and had been watching Boa. He stood there for a few seconds, watching the pony, when he noticed a large piece of debris floating through the water, large enough to hold him. He smiled. "So...you wanna see a show, eh?" He broke into a run, timing his jump with the debris. He landed on the large piece of wood, and maintained his balance as it moved through the water.

Boa used a combination of his body and his magic to keep the debris stabilized as the water crashed into it. Boa sped down the flooded town, his saddlebags coming into view. He pulled the saddlebags off of the piece of debris it had been hanging on, and looked at them with a smile on his face. As he looked up, however...he let out a startling scream as he quickly realized that the large piece of wood he was on was about to collide with a building.


"Well...the best laid plans..."
58
Boa heard the sound of the school building beginning to collapse. He wanted to rush over and help, but without those Saddlebags he was completely useless. He looked around, trying to find the best path to reach his bags. From where he was dropped off, there was a small path of rooftops he could take to reach them.

'Gonna take a little bit of legwork, it seems.' He thought. He smiled, it was a while since he got himself into a dangerous situation. 'One missed jump and I'm gonna be swimming. Gotta make 'em count.' He began running as fast as he could, and jumped to the first building. He kept up his speed and jumped to the second building, and the third. The final building, however, was just too far for him to make the final jump.

He had to come up with an idea. Those bags of his were about to be lost to the flood.
59
"Saved by a kid...pretty sure this ranks up on my top ten most embarrassing moments..." Boa reaches for his saddlebags, only to realize they weren't on him. He frantically began to look around when he saw them, they had been washed away, and were hanging for dear life on a piece of debris.

Boa could not let those bags be washed away, for the contents inside he needed dearly. "Heh...they aren't that far away, nothing a teleport can't fix." Boa pressed down on his belt, and with a flash, teleported from his spot...only to reappear only an inch away from his original location. His confident look immediately faded when he realized he didn't move an inch.

"...Oh dear." He looked down at his belt, opening it. Inside, was a small piece of paper. It was supposed to have a magical rune written on it, allowing him to cast the spell, but the belt had become completely flooded with water, and the paper was destroyed. "That is not good."

As the others rushed towards the school, nearby, a pony had become stuck on a tree, his long jacket had become stuck on a rather large branch, and he was hanging helplessly between the tree and the raging waters.

"Stupid...jacket! I'm supposed to be--ugh! This is what I get for wearing this on a constant basis..."
