    Dynamo smiled and nods as he was ushered into the tent. He yawned as he laid back down in the sleeping bag. He felt warmth as Ursa levitated a blanket over him. "Thank you and I'll see you soon. If you need help, then don't hesitate to call me. If we need a code word, then let me know, so we can collaborate. Just in case we have a situation on our hooves to take care of." He said and closed his eyes to rest. He still felt restless, but he decided to rest until he could fall asleep. The blue unicorn thought he had heard the squeaking sound again, but decided to pay it no mind for the time being. 'Hopefully everything will be okay until it's my turn to keep guard.' He thought sleepily as he continued to rest. 

    Ursa's luminecent purple eyes flickered towards the sounds. She could hear whispers in the distance, but who could it be?

    The astronomer breathed nervously but stood her gaurd. 

    There was a sudden pain on the back of her head, and the whole world went dark.

    For now, a band of theives we're trotting off with Ursa.

    Ursa saw the tear and began to cry herself. She hadn't meant to hurt his feelings, she was just very paranoid at the moment and didn't want either one of them to be harmed, and she told him so. 

    "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..." She sighed and wiped a tear from her eyes, "I...I was just trying to protect us...trying to protect you. I shouldn't have snapped, I'm sorry." She shuffled her hoofs, "I just...I'm not used to...you know, having friends." Ursa said this last part quietly, as she was rather embarreced, "Forgive me, Dynamo Pad?"

  3. @Dynamo Pad

    Ursa squinted her eyes, trying to make out a small shadow that had just appeared. A figure bounced out, and it was...a rabbit? 

    That's strange. She thought to herself, I wouldn't think rabbits would be living here.

    Ursa turned her head and ignored the creature. Instead, she sat down and looked firmly into the distance. They were halfway to their destination, and that meant they had to be extra careful. No trusting bunnies, making sure everything was where it needed to be.

    The rabbit squeaked.

    "Well, that's definetley curious. I don't recall the last time I heard a rabbit squeak." She said to herself. Because last time she checked they made sort of a high pitched squeal sound. 

    Something wasn't right here, but she still didn't move.

    This was some sort of trick, and Ursa wasn't going to fall for it.

  4. @Dynamo Pad

    Ursa stared at him, a small smile creeping up her face. She nuzzled the blanket he had draped over herself. Her deep purple eyes were focused and ready for anypony who dared to come forth. 

    She sat as still as a statue. Her ear twitched at the sudden snap of a twig. She turned he head to face the sound, but didn't dare leave her post. Because a sensible pony, such as herself wouldn't be fooled by a noise, trick or not.

    Because if she left, that meant the thieves would come.

    And Ursa was no fool.

  5. I'll just be asking for two cutiemarks for now. Both vectors, please.

    1. I'd like an updated version of my OC, Emerald Heart's cutiemark. 

    I would love to have a light pink heart shaped lock with two keyholes. If possible, I'd like to have a key insirted into the keyholes.

    2. For my OC, Ursa, I'd love to have something to have to do with space or astronomy. I was thinking something along the lines of a black hole or a vortex of some sort. On hers, you can just get creative.

     

     

    Here are some pictures for references-

    NOTE: I do not want copies of their current cutie marks. Just updated versions, please.

    Dynamo nods in understanding at Ursa's remark. "After everything that's happened on this journey. I think sleep is the best idea to end the day. We still have time since it looks like the sun is finally starting to set. Maybe you and I can get to know each other a little more, if that's okay." He closed his eyes to think about her idea. It was a pretty sound idea, but he decided to throw his two cents in. "I'm okay with the plan, but after a while, you should wake me up. That way, I can take guard and you can get some rest. Plus, we don't know anyone in this town, so it's hard to trust others, or something like that." He says as they make their way to the empty plot of land. 

    He shook his head and smiled. "Just do what you would do naturally and just keep watch. If you see anything suspicious, then just wake me up. You and I are here to back each other up. You're my friend, Ursa and I don't want anything to happen to my friends." He raised an eyebrow as she narrowed her eyes at him. He was surprised as she grabbed him and their faces were smushed together. His eyes widen, but he narrowed his eyes to show her that he was serious. "I understand what you're saying. Besides, it looks like everyone in this town likes to make trades and such. There could be thieves besides the three that we had to deal with. So, I promise not to light my horn if it gets dark out when I'm on watch later." He says with a nod to affirm his statement. 

    "Indeed." She said with a pure smile, "I suggest we get started then. But, unfortunetley, I am not very gifted when it comes to constructing. Perhaps you could show me how to do it?"

    (Sorry it took so long for me to post).

  7. @Dynamo Pad

    "Well, I suppose going to sleep would be the best idea." She said, stroking her chin, "Though might I recommend me taking gaurd? Just an extra precaution in case those moronic stallions try to come at us again." Ursa looked around, "That space over there should do." She pointed at a empty plot of land. 

    "Just tell me what to do." She said assertively, "And whatever you do, no matter how dark it is; Never. Light. Your. Horn." She narrowed her eyes to show she meant it, "That will only attract potential theifs."

    Ursa grabbed him and smushed her face close to his, so he could meet her eyes, "Do you understand what I am saying?"

  8. @Dynamo Pad

    Ursa shook her head, "You are wrong, I'm afraid, we are exactly where we should be." 

    Her horn glowed, and a copy of her cutiemark soared off her flank and grew larger. Slowly, the desert facade got sucked into her mark and revealed their location. Her magic flickered away, and the cutimark copy floated onto her flank.

    "See? Not turned around at all." She said to her friend, "Not all things can be seen in front of us. Sometimes it takes a Keen eye and a intelligent mind to realize we are being tricked."

    (Sorry if this is a little odd. It's not supposed to be overpowering, I just thought it would be cool).

    Dynamo reluctantly nodded as she told them that they might see them again. "I just wonder what they want the ruby for? They seemed desperate to get their hooves on it." He whispers and nods once again. "That's true. When you see a sale for something at a store, you push your way through everypony else to get what you want." He was surprised at first when he felt Ursa pulled him into a tight hug. However, he returned the tight embrace as he could feel tears were welling up in his eyes.

    "I should be the one to say that. I'm just so glad that you're okay. I...I thought I lost you back there. When I saw you sank all the way to the bottom of the lake bed, I wanted to do everything in my ability to save you." He pulls back from the hug to wipe the stray tears that had fallen. "When were you acting? Did you mean back when we had to fool those three?" He whispered softly, so they wouldn't be heard as they kept walking. "I'm glad that you told me, instead of not telling me at all. Maybe if there's more water around, I can teach you. Swimming is fun, in my opinion. Plus, it's just in case something happens again, then you'll be prepared to swim." He says, before smiling and continuing. "Thank you and I really appreciate you protecting me. Just know, that I'll always protect you, as well. It was also a spur of the moment, so we didn't have time to think when they showed up."

    Dynamo chuckled and pulled Ursa into another hug. "Thank you and I always try to be kind. You're really smart, brave and a loyal friend, Ursa. I think those are other important qualities, when having and making friends." He pulls back from the hug as the two continue walking on. He notices something off into the distance. "I think we're getting to the clearing of the forest. I guess we're making some good time now."

    Ursa smiled and levitated the map in front of their faces, "Indeed." She said, picking up the pace the slightest bit. 

     

  10. @Dynamo Pad

    "I wouldn't put it past them." She answered in a whisper, "Sometimes, we can desire something so important we force our way through every obstacle." She suddenly grabbed him and pulled Dynamo into a hug, a tight one, I might add.

    "I'm just so relieved you are alright. I am so sorry, I should have told you I was acting. Oh, and I definitely should have told you I couldn't swim. I was just trying to protect you, and I wasn't quite aware of my surroundings. I should have been more careful."

    Ursa smiled at her new friend, "You are a very kind pony, Dynamo. That is an important quality to have when making friends, so I've seen."

    Dynamo gave a confused look to Ursa, who had a look of concern and worry on her face. He was about to ask her what was wrong, but his ears perked as he heard a voice from behind him. He quickly turned around to see a stallion with a scruffy beard with a spiked piercing in his left ear. Dynamo was surprised as the stallion was about to punch the blue unicorn, but grunted as Ursa pushed him away. He hit the ground and grunted slightly, but tried to get up quickly as he saw that there were two more cohorts with what he assumed, was their leader. He watched as Ursa had kicked him into the water, but not before grabbing onto her and pulling her under. Dynamo gasped as he saw his friend being pulled into the murky depths. "Ursa!" He called out to her and was about to go to her, but he was stopped by the two cohorts.

    Dynamo grunted at the two before running right at them. "Don't you dare get in my way!" He yelled as he used a teleportation spell to slip past them. He took a deep breath and quickly dove into the lake. He squinted his eyes as the lower he went, the darker the surroundings had become. He used a light spell to help brighten the area as he saw the leader swim back up to the surface. Dynamo noticed, but didn't pay any attention to him, as he was worried about his friend. As he finally found Ursa, he became very concerned as her body had touched the lake bottom. He made his way to her and held her in his arms. 'Ursa...please hold on.' He placed his hoofs upon her cheeks and brought her face to his. He placed his lips upon her, while giving her a bit of his air. He knew that it wouldn't be enough, but hoped that it would buy them both some time. He kicked off from the lake bottom as he swam up to the surface, with Ursa in his arms. He felt himself slowly running out of air, but he was just about to hit the surface.

    As he broke the surface, Dynamo gasped as he felt air returning into his lungs. He coughed a sputtered, but he was doing his best to keep the both of them afloat. He swam over to the other side and made sure Ursa was on land, before dragging himself out of the water. He turned back to the three who had hurt Ursa and narrowed his eyes. "What do you three want with us, huh!?"

     

    "The orb." The scruffy-beareded stallion said, "We know you have it. And you two are going to give it to us."

    Ursa coughed, "Sorry gentleman, we cannot do that."

    She pulled herself to her feet and stared at them, "I pride myself on being quite the thinker. And therefore, I would suggest you would try the same when following somepony. You might have fooled him, but not me."

    "You mean to tell me...you led us to the wrong place...on purpose?"

    "Not all stars shine in the sky." Ursa responded, "Please don't follow us. It's quite rude."

    Then she turned around and left.

    ( I g2g. Ttyl)?

  12. @Dynamo Pad

    As he was speaking, a older and much more threatening stallion snuck up behind Dynamo. He had a scruffy beard and a spiked piercing in his left ear, and Ursa could tell already that he was no good. Two other ponies joined him by his side, and they were just as equally frightening as the first.

    "Thanks for leadin' us to it." The bearded stallion said, inching closer to Ursa's new friend, "You've been doin' some good." He reached closer and took a swing at Dynamo Pad, but Ursa was faster. She pushed her friend to the side and snarled at the enemy. He laughed and ran over to her, a look of pleasure in his eyes.

    But Ursa didn't move.

    He was inches away from her.

    Ursa didn't move.

    He was so, so, close to her.

    She moved.

    "Buck you!" She screeched, raising her hind legs and kicking him into the water. But not before he grabbed her.

    Holding the mare tight, he dragged her down into the water with him. His hooves slipped after a few seconds, but Ursa just kept sinking.

    Her eyes closed, her body temperature dropped.

     This is the end.

    @Emerald<3

    Dynamo closed his eyes to think for a moment as she said her nickname. "Hmm...to be honest, I don't think I've ever heard of anypony by that nickname. Maybe you know of a pony that was a unicorn, but couldn't use his magic?" He said, before slowly raising his hoof up into the air. "That would have been me a long time ago. You see, when I was born the doctor's had talked to my parents. They said that my horn was a birth defect and that I would probably be unable to ever use magic. I was always picked on at school by this bully named Cosmic Clown. He was the type of pony that wouldn't like other pony's for their kindness and friendship." He opened his eyes and looked sorrowfully towards the ground. "He always tried to make himself the greatest and strongest at the school. I was last in my class to gain a cutie mark, so he used that as fuel to pick on me." He looked to her and gave her a smile. "It was okay, though. In the end, I was able to stand up to him and I gained my magic and cutie mark because of it." He says as he looked down and pointed to the video game controller on his flank.

    "I'm really sorry that other ponies gave you that type of nickname. You don't look like a space cadet to me. To be honest, you sound like a pretty awesome pony, in my opinion." He said with a honest and heartfelt smile. He chuckled at how enthusiastic she was being, while explaining about her mark. "That's actually pretty interesting. I've never taken astronomy before, but it sounds pretty cool. I guess there are other parts of the world that had Roman and Greek Ponies. It makes you wonder if they had their own way of living like we do in Equestria. We follow Princess Celestia, Luna and the other Princesses, as well. I wonder if they had some to look up to, since you said their Gods were named after planets." He said while feeling pretty fascinated about the subject. "My talent is my love and passion for video games. I can also do something unique when it comes to video games. You see, whenever my talent and/or magic activates and I throw a punch or a kick, then the character I play as does that as well. I don't even have to move the controller to make it happen. I can make the character move in ways that's not possible in a regular game." He said while trying to come up with another question for the mare next to him. "Is there any questions that you'd like to ask, Ursa? Since we are on a journey, I thought it'd be nice for us to get to know each other more."

    "So, you get a workout while you are playing videogames? How convenient,I might say." She cracked a smile, "I don't particularly have any questions for you. No offence, Dynamo Pad." Ursa shook her head in apology, "I am not very gifted in conversation making....look!" She shouted, trotting ahead, "There! Its over there! Past that rock, oh my goodness I do believe we've found it! Let's go!" She ran ahead, but stopped at the edge when she saw the water.

    "Oh, Goodness." The unicorn said, "Um...would you mind getting it? I should probably stay here. Y'know, as a lookout."

  14. 25 minutes ago, Dynamo Pad said:

    @Emerald<3

    Dynamo nodded in agreement as they walked along the pathway presented for them. "I know what you mean, to be honest. I don't know how video games can work on a quest like this, but I think I have a pretty good idea. If it comes down to it, then you'll see what I mean." He winked as he chuckled slightly. His eyes widened in surprise at the mention of her original home. "Wait a minute. You grew up in Fillydelphia too? That's my old hometown!" He exclaimed in excitement. He blushed as he grins sheepishly. "I'm sorry about that. It's just a surprise to hear another pony who lived in the same place I did. I moved to Ponyville about half a year ago. I wonder if we went to the same school together." He wondered as he looked off toward the sky. He shook his head as he knew he'd figure things out later. He looked to where her hoof was pointing and noticed her cutie mark. "It must be pretty cool to see the night sky. Almost as if you're watching a show filled with constellations, shooting stars and such." He chuckled softly as she swooned. "It seems you're a really dedicated astronomer. That sounds pretty cool, if you ask me. I take your word on seeing a crystal in the sky at night." He says, before bringing up another question. "What is your talent all about anyway? If you don't mind me asking, that is."

    Ursa smiled at him, "I can confirm that we have never gone to the same school. I was homeschooled, you see. By my Father. Though, there may be a small chance that you may have heard of me. I was quite unpopular, you see. I was even nicknamed..." She winced, "Space Cadet?" 

    She looked at him, "My talent?" She asked, perking up a bit, "Well, you know I am gifted at astronomy. But I am also good at anything revolving around space and stars. That's why I favor the Romans over Greeks. They named their Gods after planets; Pluto, Venus, Jupiter."

    @Emerald<3

    Dynamo watched as Ursa unfolded the map and levitated it with her magic. It looked as if she had a calculative, yet confident look upon her face as she read the map. He watched as she pointed to where they were to where they needed to go. He nods as she folds the map back up and stores said map into her saddlebag. "Okay and sounds like a plan. Then let's get going." He starts to walk towards the clearing that she pointed out, but he made sure to place a comforting hoof upon her shoulder. He quickly back away and blushes slightly. "I'm sorry about that. I know how you're scared, so I put my hoof on your shoulder to let you know that I'm right here with you. That way, you wouldn't have to feel afraid, if that's okay." He continued to walk, while shaking his head to remove the blush upon his cheeks. He chuckled sheepishly as he tried to think of what to talk about. "You said you were from the Crystal Empire, right? Was that where you always grew up at, or did you live somewhere else in Equestria?"

    (Is Dynamo into Ursa?)

    Ursa looked up at him and offered a small smile, "That's all right. It seems that I only have the confidence to go on quests like this when I can still use my talent. I was born in Phillydeplphia, but my parents let me move to the Crystal Empire by myself two years after I gained my cutie mark." She pointed to the vortex on her flank, "There are so much more interesting things to see in the night sky of the Crystal Empire." She swooned, "I know it sounds impossible, but one time I swore I saw a star that looked just like a crystal twinkling in the sky."

    @Emerald<3

    Dynamo briefly nods at her unreadable expression as she responded to his statement. He felt her grab his hoof with her own as he helped her out of the chariot. The guards expression didn't change, but it seemed like they were grateful that the situation was averted. "It'll take some time for you to make it towards Mount Aris. Just follow the map like the Princess has stated and you'll make it there in a few days. We've made sure that you have been given supplies for your journey." The guard stated while pointing to their saddlebags. The guards soon took flight as the chariot was flown back to the castle. 

    Dynamo could only give Ursa and apologetic smile as he listened on her words. "I don't think that would have been too simple. You would have probably been given a letter or the guards would have gone to your home." He turned to look at the forest before them, before turning his attention back to the ebony mare. "So what does that map say about our travel?" He asks as he was taking their journey one step at a time, but knew they had to act quickly. 

    Ursa's navy unicorn horn glowed a soft blue, and the map was lifted into the air. She unfolded the piece of parchment, square by square. Ursa stuck her muzzle closer to the parchment, "Let's see....taking in the account of this, and that is over there....I'd say we need to start..." Ursa rubbed her chin, "Over there. Just past the clearing." She said, folding the map back up and tucking it away.

    @Dynamo Pad

  17. @Dynamo Pad

    Ursa's heart raced as the chariot came to a stop. She watched Dynamo Pad get out, but she stayed.

    What if something eats me? What if I eat something? Will that something be poisoned? Or, will it be him that eats me? Oh my Goodness, I could be traveling with a cannibal!

    Ursa looked at the gaurds, "Please take me home! Pretty please with a cherry on top!" She begged, "When I was a filly, my Mother said this place eats ponies. Please let me leave."
