Inner Dragon Chp. 7, The Final Chapter
PRESENT...
Shining Armor was astonished by the warm smile curved across the mammoth's face. Gazpacho was finally reaching the moment of resolving, after speaking miserably about his ordeal during the time of Florentine's absence.
However, despite the wide smile playing on his lips...the stallion saw sincere sadness in his eyes.
"Um..." Shining Armor pursed his lips for a few moments, blue eyes averting his gaze every now and then. "Something didn't go right when Florentine and the girls finally came back, huh?"
His wooly friend let out a painful sigh, massive hooves placed over his portly belly as his eyes fell.
"Although mother and I we

FLASHBACK...
Florentine turned her head upon the mound of grass that had been collected to provide as her bed and speculated the forest surrounding her. The slumber she had just experienced moments before waking up seemed to be one of the best she had thought she ever had.
She had earlier been quite giddy yet calm and somewhat serene to the point taking so much excitement made her ever more desired for a good night's sleep. But waking up now, and feeling a familiar object gently lay upon her chest as she shifted her weight to lean on her back, the emotions came back, and that same smile from earlier shone on her face.
"I can't believe it..

Shining Armor bit his lip, regarding his mammoth friend closely. "So, uh..." He paused for a moment. "You were with Twilight and Spike while the girls set out to find Florentine..."
"Yeah, that's right," Gazpacho sighed. "Drowning myself in anything Ponyville had to feed a big boy like me."
Twilight exhaled softly, shaking her head before turning to her brother. "Three barrels of Applejack's apples were gone in nearly an hour."
Her brother's eyes widened, his gaze never leaving the sight of the slowly depression-reforming mammoth before him. "Wow..." He muttered.
"Oh, yeah, I was eating more than my weight in comfort food, " G

"Yeah, I had no idea what my little girl's been doing with a bunch of dragons..." Gazpacho sighed, his hooves clasped over his massive belly as his eyes concentrated on the sky.
"Well, from Spike's perspective," Twilight assumed, "we can only suggest Florentine was doing nonsense, considering that's what those teen dragons have usually done, especially from our last encounter..." She muttered under her breath, eyes drooping in slight irritation as she recalled the memory.
"Well, she's brave," Shining Armor complimented as he turned his gaze in the direction of the young feline herself, who was jogging alongside her fellow(and wo

PRESENT...
Shining Armor's eyes widened, astounded as both he and his sister regarded the trembling mammoth before them. Gazpacho just sat there with his hooves laid down on his lap, gazing at the ground with a look of devastation as the memories came flooding back, that aching feeling in his heart returning once more.
The stallion opened his mouth, about to speak when a familiar voice called out.
"Hey, Gazpacho! How much longer are we going to practice?"
Shining Armor turned his head as he, his sister, and Gazpacho drank in the sight of the feline cat herself, helmet under one arm and using her other to wipe some sweat beneath her blue l

FLASHBACK...
"Alright, sweetie, now just add extra pizzazz..."
Mama Jam's voice was barely audible as Florentine rested her head in her hands, gazing down at the ingredients on the table with a dazed expression. Though this was a special recipe her mother figure wanted her to accomplish, the young girl's mind just couldn't absorb what she was suppose to learn; her mind was elsewhere.
"Yeah..." Florentine murmured, trying to hide her expression of disinterest.
"Then you sprinkle some mint..."
"Uh-huh..."
"And stir well..."
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh..." Florentine muttered repeatedly.
Mama Jam placed down her spoon and casted the cat girl

"Shining, my good man, I owe you."
The stallion smiled at the wooly mammoth before turning back to regard the little football team practicing on open Canterlot grounds.
"It's no problem, Gazpacho," Shining Armor stated like it wasn't a massive deal, "it's not your fault your football team's training area had overflowed with cottage cheese." He cringed at the image forming in his head.
Gazpacho tried not to gag, recalling the horrid memory of how he had to swim through gallons of the disgusting substance to rescue one of his players. It was still difficult to believe that the wide, open field of fresh-cut grass had been overlaid with a half
