He sat under an oak tree, relaxing in the grass as the wind breezed on. Taking in a sigh of relief as the fresh air was vacuumed into his nostrils. His silver light fur flowed with the current of the wind. His hair, has a similar color to his fur, but a part his hair had a natural green color that formed a thick line going down both the front and the back of his mane. Running along the top of his snout and up to into his hair, also made that same green color, the color was even on the wither of his back.

A backpack with a single shoulder strap plus a waist belt and a cylinder container lay on the ground next to him; around his neck was a bright red bandana. He turned his head around, looking back at a wooden structure. Looking at its flag poll that stretched out above from the doorway, as ponies, unicorns, and Pegasus's went in and out of the building, the flag having an image of a scroll with a seal of a galloping pony.

"Hey! Silversprint!" a voice called out to him from above. Silversprint, gazed up in the direction he heard his name being called out from. A yellow Pegasus, came gliding down from the air, landing next to him, a mark of an envelope showed on her flank. She wore a flight helmet that covered her short blue mane and goggles, wearing two packs at her side. "There you are! What are you doing here?"

"I've been thinking. Planning of what to do next." Silversprint responded, "This was my last day working for the Pony Mailing Express. What to do next has me stumped now that I'm unemployed."

"Oh yeah…" the Pegasus's voice became low, feeling disappointed that he was going away, "it's a shame you have to go. Ever since you were a little fur ball you always dedicated your time to help me and my mother's post office." She then gasped at a sudden thought that came across her mind, "Is this because we've had those complaints about you being a wolf working with us? Is that why you're leaving?"

Silversprint chuckled. "No, that's not the reason." He then finally stood up, his wolf form towering over the Pegasus by a foot and a half, "I have been living here since I could remember, first making neighborhood deliveries, then growing up to run those long distances over the mountain and back."

"Then why? Why are you leaving?"

"Well Letterbox," the wolf finally saying his friends name, gaining her attention, "Equestria is a big kingdom, and I think it's about time for me to get out there and see the rest of it. Even if I have to work for a post office again."

Letterbox was silent, wasn't sure what to say, "So… where will you start?"

Silversprint let out a long hum, "I'm not sure yet, but I'll go wherever the paths take me. Even if it's over a great mountain."

"I know!" Letterbox jumped into the air and hover, after coming up with an idea which she thinks is brilliant, "Why don't you go to Ponyville!"

"Ponyville?" Silversprint couldn't help but question his friend.

"Yeah! I saw package in the manifest that was in our mailroom that 's designated destination was Ponyville! Come on, I'll show you!" the joyful Pegasus flew towards the post office at great speed.

Before he could follow, he had to take care of putting on his bag and containers. It takes quite a while for him to put them on by himself, but to prevent Letterbox from waiting for him he decided to rush his equipment on. Once finished, he trotted over to the office. The ponies coming in and out made way for him once he was spotted, giving him enough space to pass through the entrance.

There was a long line of ponies waiting with their unsent packages resting on their backs. The line moved only when the next pony was called up to a booth. That's not where he needed to go. He walked calmly around the organized crowd to an open door for employees only. When he came into the next, largest room of the building, Pegasi were in the air organizing boxes on the shelves, unicorns were using their glowing, magical horns to quickly scan through the addresses written on the front of envelopes, and earth ponies standing at attention as their bags were fill with mail that needed to be taken to the neighboring villages.

Emerging from the business of the room, Letterbox glided down with a box in her hooves, landing in front of him, "Here. See?" she said to him, placing the box box on the ground for Silversprint to examine. "This package is actually behind schedule by 2 days. Even my mom can't find a perfect delivery route for it to be transferred through. But if you take it, then it will take a straight course there and will be able to make it on time."

Looking down at the box, at the address in which it had to be deliver to, he read, "To: Twilight Sparkle, Ponyville Public Library, Ponyville."

"That's correct." A familiar voice spoke out to him, confirming the address. Both the wolf and Pegasus turned to find another yellow Pegasus, with an aqua blue mane and a similar cutie mark as Letterbox's, but with three envelopes. It was her mother, Mail Call, "I thought you would have been gone by now. Having thoughts of staying and helping the business?"

"No, I'm going to be out of your mane soon, besides I haven't even properly packed yet…" Silversprint sat down next to the table, his big height compared to a pony sitting in a chair their height would be similar.

Mail Call couldn't help but laugh at his words, "Out of my mane you say?" she picked the package up onto her back as she approached him. She went over to Silversprint's side, looking at her daughter, "Letterbox, if you would be so kind."

Her daughter saluted, flying over to her mother and pushing the package into the wolf's backpack. "Hey! Wait! I didn't agree to make this deliver!" Silversprint announced to the two pegasi.

"Not yet you haven't!" the two ponies quickly got behind him, placing their foreheads against his back, and began to push him.

Silversprint started to resist, pushing his fore and hind paws into the ground as his rump skid across the floor. He watched as where he was being guided to against his will. The other pony-employees in the post office became distracted from their work as they stared at the canine. Silversprint started to let out whines as he slid right out the back exit door.

"Now hold on a minute!" the wolf hollered after the mother and daughter team finally shoved him outside. "I can't just go right now! I didn't ask for this!"

"Yes you can!" Letterbox cheered to him, "It's just a two day trip to Ponyville from here! You'll be able to make the delivery on time!"

"You mean two days straight!" Silversprint corrected her, "What about water? What about the stuff from my room?"

"Don't worry about that," Mail said with not-so-calming words, "when you find a town to finally settle down in, send us a message with your new address, we'll take care of packing and sending your things."

Silversprint's jaw went ajar as he tried to speak the right words to them, but nothing was said. The wolf rolled his eyes up before pawing himself in the forehead. He lowered his head and ears in frustration, staring at the ground, "Why do I have to leave this soon?" he questioned.

"Because we want you to get started on a new life." Mail Call stated. She walked up to him and sat down; raising her two front hooves she straightened the bandana around his neck. "Just remember what I always say, 'enjoy every moment of your life from every step you take.'"

Letterbox, by surprise, flew straight at her friend and hugged her pony arms around his thick wolf mane. "We're going to miss ya!" she said as she hugged the wolf tightly, then bringing a hoof up and began to give him a horseshoe-Dutch rub.

Feeling the ache of the rough act, Silversprint lowered his head quickly, pawing at his friend to halt, "No! Not again!" he constantly yelled. In a matter of seconds Silversprint found himself on the ground with his tail beginning to wag left and right.

Silversprint's yells of torture slowly became the cheer of laughter. Both the Pegasus and Wolf giggled and laughed as they started to roughhouse each other. With Silversprint giving his own version of a dutch-rub. Grinding the back of his paw into Letterbox's mane.

Mail Call watched and smiled as the two began to have fun, then she cleared her throat, "I think you have a package to deliver." She said.

Letterbox and Silversprint halted what they were doing, with the Pegasus grabbing hold of the wolf's red bandana that her mother just fixed and the wolf holding the Pegasus's flight helmet, playing keep away with it. They looked at her then at each other before getting back to their hooves… and paws, straightening themselves out.

"You ponies sure that this is the right choice for me to start my new life?" Silversprint asked. Tapping his hind paws against the soil, the kicked them back, striking up dust, getting ready for the long run.

"That's how I started when I was Letterbox's age. Traveling for days until I found the right place to set up my business, which was right here, at this spot. I understand that you want to see the rest of the world and I want to support your decision. So I'm helping you start your new life." Mail Call said to him.

He rolled his eyes before sighing with his head hung low. "Alright," he answered, "I'll do this delivery for you, but this doesn't mean Ponyville is going to be my new home! I might go else where."

"Then hop to it Silver!" Letterbox cheered, using his nickname, "The more time you're wasting the greater chance that package is going to be late!"

"Thanks for everything Mail Call, Letterbox. I'll writing to you soon." After saying his goodbye, he began to walk away following the path behind the building to the main road, heading northeast. His pace began to increase into a trotting motion, then into a full on sprint. Racing faster then any earth pony.

Both Mail call and Letterbox walked out to the main road as well, watching their silver wolf friend speed away. They gazed at him as he took the road over a hill, and disappearing from sight. "I'll be back!" Letterbox said to her mother as she began to flap her Pegasi wings, taking herself into the air. At high speed, she flew off to catch up with her friend.

Letterbox followed the very same road as she flew higher and higher. As she was looking down, she spotted him, running along the empty road. She started to lower her altitude quickly, flapping her wings harder to keep up at his pace. "Silver!" she called out to him.

Silversprint's ears picked up her call, he turned his head slightly to glance up to see who was calling his name while he kept his pace, "Letterbox?" he questioned, "What are you doing here?"

"There's something I need to know!" she said, gaining slightly more of Silversprint's attention, "Will we see you again?"

"You will!" Silversprint replied, smiling to his friend, "I'll visit sometime after I find a place to settle. I won't make the distance between us too great."

"You promise?" the Pegasus asked.

Silversprint chuckled, showing a small smile, "If it hasn't arrived on it's date, then it's late, so I will sit on a hook and be the bait!" he replied.

Letterbox recognized the phrase, quickly recalling this it's a phrase her mother would say to swear to a promise. "Goodbye Silver! We're going to miss you! And take care!"

"You take care as well! Keep the business going!"

The Pegasus started to lower her speed, coming to a halt on the ground. She watched again as her wolf friend continued running ahead, not looking back. The space between her and Silversprint was increasing, as he became a silver speck in the distance. She sighed knowing that she won't be seeing him for some time, but he did promise to come for a visit.

"There he goes," Letterbox said to herself, "my big brother wolf…"
