Kyuybi felt her heart race from fear and felt a cold sweat moisten her fur. “Yeah, he was probably the one who brought us here.” The thought didn’t really do much to comfort her, but it was something at least. The bat pony then moved to her left, hoping to put some distance and objects between herself and the clown.

Kyubi didn’t look back to see if Lethe had followed her, but the clown had seemed somewhat interested in te pegesus she had been brought here with. “Hopefuly she’s ok. I’m not getting caught by that thing, though.” The bat pony soon found herself behind one of the stalla, her heart racing and hoping that she’d be able to hide.

Kyubi’s eyes widened as she realized what the clown had in store for the two. “Lethe, run.” With that, the bat pony took off in the opposite direction of the clown. She wasn’t a fighter, so it’d be best to maintain a safe distance.

Kyubi tensed slightly as Jest popped out, fully awake, and prepared to run again if needed. Heck, the clown could be the one that brought them here. “Umm, get started with what?” She asked, hoping to distract him slightly.

Kyubi was about to answer when a thought struck her. Maybe she was just being paranoid, and this pony could actually help them. “Yeah, go ahead. I think this place might be messing with my mind or aomething.”

Kyubi gave a light smile at the sight of Lethe. “Good to see you’re still ok. I thought something had happened after we got separated.” The bat pony then remembered their current situation, and glanced at Jest. “We should probably get moving, though.”

Kyubi’s eyes widened in fear as she listened to him talk, and while she could exactly tell what he meant, the object in his hand led her to assume the worst. “I think I should be going now.” With that, the bat pony turned and ran in the opposite direction. 

Kyubi felt fear grip her, and thoughts began to race through her head. What exactly was the story behind this place. Not knowing what the clown was capable of, she decided her best course of action to run. She just needed an opportunity. “What do you mean by that?” 

“Yeah, I think that may have been the other pony.” Kybui then began to back up slightly, not exactly trusting the new character. “Could you tell me how to get out of here? I’ll just take my friend and we’ll be on our way after that.”

Yuki felt a chill run down her spine as Draco spoke. This was a side of him that she had never seen, and she wasn’t exactly a fan of it. The fox faunus then glanced at Ghalan and found that she had little knowledge of his desitnation. It made sense, considering the fact that she was from a different continent, but could also tell that her team leader wasn’t exactly in the right mindset. “I think I’ll stick around for a bit longer.” She said, before walking towards the exit of the alley. 

Clayton shrugged as he dodged out of the way of one that had gotten to close to him. “Or at the very least have some wireless communications.” His horn then gave a dull glow, and with a flick of his head, the same android was sent into one that was behind Dawn. “I know I shouldn’t say it, but this seems too easy.”

Kyubi relaxed somewhat at the sound of another pony’s voice and gave a light smile. “It’s nice to meet you. My name is Kyubi.” The bat pony then glanced around, looking for possible ways out should this turn out to be a risk. “I don’t suppose you saw anotherpony come by?”

Yuki’s eyes widened slightly at Ghalan’s behavior, but didn’t exactly know how to react. Heck, Draco had yet to say a word since the information had been presented. Looking at the dragon faunus, she couldn’t even see his eyes. “Draco, it’s for you to decide.”

Yuki’s eyes widened when the mask was removed, and she could feel a slight anger directed at the three new fogures begin to form. Draco had suffered because of their decision, and that was something she couldn’t forgive. She was a bit surprised by the sudden appearance of Ghalan and the human he was with, however. “I think that’s already been established.” The fox faunus then glanced at the two figures Ghalan had. “There has to have been more than that. Even if you were hunters, you could’ve just taken him with you.”

After a few minutes, Yuki found herself in what looked like a sort of theatre area. She didn’t know exactly where she was heading at this point, so the bat pony was merely wandering around. Out of curiosity, she slowly approached the stage.

Yuki’s gave no external reaction, but her mind was already trying to piece together the identity of these individuals based on the information given. They now knew who the leader of the three was, if the words of the other female had any merit, along with the fact that they had prior information of her status. “Something about this doesn’t feel right.” She thought to herself. Despite this, the fox faunus would simply observe the scene for now.

The smell grew stronger as Kyubi moved closer to the source, and it didn’t take long for the mare to recognize it. Her stomach then produced a low grow, and while she might’ve been somewhat hungry, she figured it’d be best to keep moving.

Clayton gave a low whistle at the amount of magic Dawn was throwing around. He figured some unicorns had higher reserves when it came to the stuff, but he wasn’t one of them. The smith, figuring that the mare had this handled, simply sat back and watched the chaos. If one got too close, then he would be sure to take it out.

Kyubi, now some distance from where Lethe was, found herself walking through the amusement park, questions plaguing her mind. Why would someone bring them here of all places. The bat pony then swayed her tail from nerves and entered an area that had a sickeningly sweet smell, at least compared to the rest of the park.

After a few moments, Kyubi managed to find her way out of the building filled with mirrors, her lack of sight making it somewhat easy for her and looked around the area. It didn’t take her long to notice that Lethe wasn’t with her. “Well, this can’t be good. I should probably keep moving, though.” With that in mind, the bat pony ventured forwards. If she went back when Lethe had found another way out, then that would only waste her time and possibly put more distance between the two.

Yuki gave a light frown at the response the woman gave to Draco. If it weren’t for the fact that she didn’t have her weapon, then the fox faunus would have taken a much more aggressive stance sooner. “I’m just going to assume you heard what Draco said. If not, it looks like we’re getting a new teammate, Ghalan. Either way, I need to take care of something. I’ll have Draco call you later if he needs to.” After finishing the call, Yuki turned her full attention to the three figures in front of her and narrowed her eyes. “So, this was all a test?”

Kyubi walked forward, on edge from recent events. “Juding by the area, I’d have to say that we’re in s9me sort of amusement park.” The bat pony then began to distance herself slightly from Lethe. If anything, she was curious about the surrounding area.

“Good to know.” Seeing that there was nothing else to take within the room, Kyubi took the way out. The new area was certainly more open, but something didn’t feel right to her. “Hopefully there’s nothing else here.”

Kyubi walked ahead, using sound to get a rough image of the area aroud her. “Huh, that’s interesting. I prefer the ocarina to a turntable, but that’s probably just because I’m not a fan of excessive noise.” The bat pony then gave a light shrug as she tried to look for an exit.

Kyubi felt the rope snap as she pulled and rubbed her jaw in an attempt to relax the muscles. “Aside from being blind, I honestly enjoy most forms of music.” A light smile then graced her lips as she looked around the room for a way out. “What about you?”
