As always, I'll start this amazing roleplay.

 

 

Drill Horn watched as the pony went back inside the tower. An alicorn? The only Alicorns Drill Horn knew of was Princess Celestia, Luna, Cadence, and Twilight. There's another one? Only 7 ponies were allowed to go in. Was that a good thing? Or was that bad? The Alicorn wearing a hood seemed very shady. It seemed like the Hunger Games, only nobody knew what was going on. Drill Horn on the other hand, just had to, just seriously had to, admire the way the tower was built. It looked as if nothing could knock it down.

 

After what seemed like forever, Drill Horn finally decided to step up and be brave. "I'll explore the tower!" He shouted. Silence... He went to the front of the sea of ponies. Everyone made a little space for him to stand. He waited to see who else had the courage to help him.

"Hey, count me in!" Fluorescent Fire shouted while pushing his way through the crowds from the back. He couldn't believe a humongous tower just popped out of the ground like a daisy in the middle of Equestria. It was so tall it looked ridiculous. Fluorescent suspected it must have really, really good support structure, probably rooted in the ground or it would topple over like building blocks. He wondered if the weird alicorn was up to something. Not many alicorns in Equestria and one just popped up?

 

He pushed his way to the front, joining whoever had the guts to go in.

Crimson was standing close to the front of the group of curious ponies mustered up in a large crowd. He saw one pony who volunteered to investigate the tower, then another after that. Crimson started to think to himself 'I should investigate too, but it may be dangerous... I would have to trust the others that volunteer along side me.' Crimson thought for a little longer before looking towards the two volunteers. His horn glowed with a red aura before he teleported beside them.

He looked up towards the crowd "I too will volunteer to join these ponies into the large, formidable tower!" He says out loud to everypony in the crowd. He looks towards Fire and Drill "Im Crimson, Crimson Blade. Its a pleasure to meet you brave ponies." He said to them in a proud tone. He looks up at the tower, admiring it's design and structure, while he awaits anypony else who would dare to volunteer for the exploration of the Mysterious Tower.

" I'll go in." Ocean volunteered. He saw the tower, but he didn't believe it was possible. The way it stood in the middle of Equestria, and nopony saw it being constructed. He had to look in there, but of course there was those two words that made Ocean a little nervous. "Good luck, what was that supposed to mean" Ocean thought. Ocean went to the front with the others.

    ~Earlier~ 

 

    Silver Tongue happened to be going out of town for a particularly good looking job interview, when a large tower rise up from what he assumed to be solid dirt and stone. The tower wasn't to far in fact, it was closer than his job interview and his home.

 

    Silver Tongue wondered how much time he had for a moment before his laziness and thirst for adventure convinced him to check it out.

 

    ~Now~

 

    There was a crowd around the tower by the time Silver finally got to it. Thankfully he got there just in time to hear the 'Alicorn's?' announcement. As he rudely made his way through the crowd, Silver thought to himself, 'safe job, or dangerous tower of unknown riches?'. Silver lightly chuckled at himself for even considering the former. Finally at the front of the crowd, Silver called out like a pony chased by timber wolves, "I volunteer," to blinded by the rush of opportunity to notice how loud he actually was.

"Stupid tower messed with my show. Very well, a challenge must be answered. I will scale this tower to take my show back." Walking to the front, he calmly stares the tower down. "You are going down, I haven't forgotten all my old tricks. Let's go, I have a job to do."

[madpenguin44 38]

(The other people are taking to long to respond, so I'll continue the story.)

 

Drill watched as several other ponies volunteered to explore the tower. "Okay, let's not waste any time guys". Drill Horn walked into the tower and disappeared. Inside the tower was amazing. He waited for everypony to come inside.

[Chivalry Knight 161]

Crimson watched as one of the ponies hastily entered the mysterious tower. Crimson looked at the entire group and noticed something. 'it seems that we are all unicorns. This makes me feel a bit safer, we have magic on our side if anything were to attack us.' He thought to himself. He looked back at the crown and wished them all farewell before looking towards the tower again. "Well then, I guess theres no point in staying out here any longer, shall we?" He said as he disappeared into the shadows of the tower.

[Concerto Dusk 240]

Walking into the tower, Mirror Image was almost speechless. "Amazing. This is quite the room. Gives me some ideas for my next show. Now, what do we do now? I assume there is something at the top, it only makes sense. Then again, it is a really tall tower that just randomly appeared.

[Loud Opinion 602]

    Silver Tongue rushed into 'The Tower' with the bravado of you average high school jock when it hit him, 'This could be a competition.' Silver thought to himself, 'Quick, act like you've got you're eye on the prize, without burning any bridges!', "Haha, your 'Fancy Drapes™' and 'Beautiful Tile Designs™' are no match for my raw focus... Actually, these 'Fancy Drapes™' look pretty expensive, you think we could sell these at a 'General Goods Store™'?" Silver asked, trying to make his determination as apparent as possible before he inevitably distracted himself. Oh well, such is the price of living 'outside-ish' of the box.

[Ocean Melody 116]

Ocean walked into the tower slowly and catiously. He didn't trust the tower. When he was inside, he looked around. It was amazing. Ocean let his guard to drop a little. He was still wary of the tower. He saw it and was in it, yet there's no way something this good, this perfect could be true.

[madpenguin44 38]

Out of the shadows, a unicorn appeared. It was one of those ponies that looked like Pinkie Pie, so happy and friendly. It seemed like his smile brightened up the room. But was he friendly? Nope. His face turned into a scary grin. Drill Horn back away a few steps. "Hey, who are you?" The unicorn just grinned and his blue eyes, turned dark red...

[Chivalry Knight 161]

@@madpenguin44,

Crimson felt uneasy. "I don't think 'it' intends to answer your question with words... I suggest getting behind me." Crimson said as he stepped forward, drawing his Crimson Shroud from its holster. "If it is a battle you seek, then I will not allow you to harm these innocent ponies. I will gladly sacrifice my life for the safety of my comrades!" Crimson gets into a battle stance, and proceeds to stare the grinning unicorn down until it acts.

[LordSwinton 759]

Fluorescent found himself slowly backing up. The dark red eyes made his blood freeze and his hooves bolted to the ground and turned to jelly. "What the buck is that, that thing?!" He stammered, eyes fixed on it. He had the sudden urge to just kill it with fire.

[Concerto Dusk 240]

"Well, it is just a pony. This will help." Creating three illusions, a giant Phoenix, a Manticore, and a dragon. "I do not like being threatened and you also happen to be in my way. Move or else, and trust me. You won't like the or else part." Standing ready, he watches the other pony.

[Loud Opinion 602]

    Silver Tongue found himself in relatively the same boat as Fluorescent Fire (Doesn't know his name, just a reference point), but instead of slowly backing away, he rushed to the side farthest away from the unsettling 'unicorn'.

 

    His brain went into overdrive trying to guess what it would do, 'Red means danger, do not activate, smile means inviting, want as many ponies around it as possible, there's no emotion behind it, unarmed. Think, what has, or would want all of these effects?'. "Guys, I think we should keep our distance. What has a built in alarm, no emotion, doesn't need a weapon, and wants as many ponies around it as possible? That thing is a living bomb!" Silver tried to warn, while keeping as many ponies between him and the 'explosive'.

[Ocean Melody 116]

"Okay, so I was right about this place" Ocean thought. He looked for some place he could hide behind while also looking for something he could possibly use as projectile. If he could kill the pony/bomb it might deactivate, or it might make it go off. He couldn't find any place to hide behind, so he just backup as far as possible from it, and hoped for the best

[LordSwinton 759]

Fluorescent's ears picked up the word 'bomb'. His eyes lit up immediately, which may have appeared rather unsettling at that moment. He scanned the weird unicorn, taking down mental notes. He came to a conclusion, it needed to go boom. "Everypony get as far as possible and then we detonate it!" It sounded far better than 'everypony buck off and left me hit it till it explodes'. If he could

Fluorescent's ears picked up the word 'bomb'. His eyes lit up immediately, which may have appeared rather unsettling at that moment. His old job had took him places, mines, military... but never had he seen an actually walking bomb. He scanned the weird unicorn, taking down mental notes, still rather wary with its unsettling joker grin and unnatural red eyes.

 

He came to a conclusion, it needed to go boom. "Everypony get as far as possible and then we detonate it!" It sounded far better than 'everypony buck off and let me hit it till it explodes'. If he could analyse and even design them, with a bit of luck he was sure he could defuse one.

[Chivalry Knight 161]

Crimson couldn't concentrate with all the noise going on behind him. Crimson quickly turned his head and yelled "SILENCE! I can't concentrate with all your bickering!" Crimson doubted that the thing standing before them was a bomb. 'Clearly this thing activated some sort of magic within herself. Ack! I just can't concentrate, grr...' Crimson thought to himself.

[madpenguin44 38]

"Uh, I don't know about you guys, but I'm not really a fighter". He said while slowly walking over to the pony on the other side of the room. "I'll just uh, tinker with some materials on the floor and see if I can craft a weapon with my special talent". He started to fiddling with some stone and wood, but at the same time watched the unicorn that everypony was looking at.

[madpenguin44 38]

(Someone said I just make another post, so)

 

Drill Horn eventually made a blunt spear out of random sticks and rocks. "Don't you guys just stand there!" He said while tossing the spear to someone. "Kill that thing before it kills us!". Drill Horn continued to make more objects, if the battle lasted long, they would probably need another weapon.

Crimson snapped back into attention, "Alright fine then i'll go first!" Crimson charged towards the red eye'd pony with his blade clenched between his teeth in attempt to slash at his enemy with his Crimson shroud. 'I sure hope my comrades will know to follow up if something doesn't go right with this attack...' Crimson thinks to himself.

"Ocean grabbed the spear with his telekinetics. and from relatively safe distance jabbed it at the pony as hard as he could. "I really hope this thing doesn't start attacking" Ocean thought to himself. Out loud he said come everypony if we work together we defeated this thing whatever it is.

[madpenguin44 38]

Drill Horn watched as Ocean Melody and Crimson Blade fought the unicorn. The magic aura around his horn became more pale. Soon they would kill it. Drill made another spear in 10 seconds flat. He aimed it towards the unicorn from across the room and threw it...

[Loud Opinion 602]

 Silver Tongue watched as they 'fought'(it looked a little more like murder to him), and tried to find an exit to the room. 'This place looks like its full of treasure, there has to be something functional enough to help'. "Anyone that can't fight, look for something to help those that can." Silver ordered, as he picked up the spear in his telekinesis, and started bashing the 'thing' as hard as he could.
