P-Jay

caliber watched tyra and ticktock's interaction from a safe distance. "just tell me what to do, ice." he said, "cause i know my logic is a but much for this mission. ill end up having to kill everything is i do things my way." he chuckled, and stopped himself. "right, stealth." he muttered.

caliber got a weird look to his eyes. "ooh, confident!" he said, "but dont go thinking your the only one whos been getting stronger. I've even started having sessions with zenru." he grinned. "and ill at least get ya at least once this time around." he grinned wider. "but for now, lets just enjoy this city." he kept walking, his muffins long gone, "you know any places we could go?" he asked offhandedly.

caliber as listening to the story intently. "actually, iv been to tartarus. its not all that bad...just avoid the lava, and you'll be good." he said casually, with a dismissive wave. "granted, eclipse almost killed me, but thats irrelevant." he added quietly. "and you actually seem like your quite capable. hell, you beat me. thats no small feat." he grinned. "4th best swordspony...im still impressed." he grinned even wider, as he added, "although, i think we both know that it was because i didnt eat well the night before, that you won." he said with a smirk. "iv been wanting to rematch ya, to be honest."

alright! i succeeded!

"yeah! and then we can be those awesome ponies, all fighting and sparring and amazing everyone who watched...its going to b epic!" she grinned, "but we're gonna have to train!" she added, with a confident smirk. "aw, you know your shy." he said, nudging her and chuckling himself. "and i like this place cause it reminds me that im not the top-dog in the world. and that i still need to get stronger." he shrugged. "but other then that, i can actually live in this place. of course, eventually, id go back to wandering, but thats besides the point." he grinned. "so what about you?" he asked, as he poked her side. "whats your story?"

oh goud, bron's back. and question, who liked the zenru vs cubus fight?

"yes, actually, once. the wolves tried to prey on a manticore, and quickly ended up as dinner." his eyes narrowed. "the manticore was aware of the tactics, had superior strength, speed, and size, and thus, was able to counter." "you'd be amazed at what nature could dish up." he said, with a dismissive wave. "and i guess im good with that plan."

caliber snarled, as the guard started to sounded the alarm. he caught up to him, swept him off his feet, and once again pinned him with his sword dangerously close to the guard's neck. "be quiet, or ill slice your vocal cords. and miss." he said quietly. (if he doesn't shaddup.)

because caliber is obviously the better pony.

"oh, this is the fourth arena. for personal fights. not wanting to be seen by a crowd, and so forth." cubus said, hearing what red said. "and i must say, i was surprised that zenru brought company." "well, someone has to confirm that im the superior one." zenru said, a rare instance in which he attempts sassiness. "oh? why dont we put that to the test..." they both drew their swords, and got into a ready stance. the air dropped a few degrees, along with the light seemingly being sucked towards zenru and cubus. the air even seemed to swirl around the two, gaining speed. and then they both shouted something. "release!" "stage 10" they both disappeared, and were suddenly both in the center of the arena, a full hurricane of slashes that were clearly all deadly. caliber's onslaught wouldn't even come close. and the fact that they were pegasi was just adding to the heat of the fight, as they took to the air. and while cubus did had impressive speed, zenru proved himself to be superior, in at least, that aspect. zenru was everywhere, striking at every possible angel at cubus' body, with barely a millisecond in-between slashes. but the truly remarkable thing was that cubus was actually countering each slash, spinning in mid-air, his sword seemed to have a mind of it's own, going to meet every attack. and then cubus suddenly caught zenru's hilt, and flung his sword away. the sword stuck right next to ruby, but she could care less. alls that mattered to her right now was watching the epic fight in front of her. zenru merely drew his other sword, and resumed his onslaught. cubus would try to do the same trick, but zenru wouldn't fall for it twice. cubus landed on the ground, still fending off the dome of swords that had formed around him, when he suddenly spun, faster then sound, and the ear-popping boom was more then enough proof for that. zenru was caught off guard, and cubus lunged, seeing a chance, and taking it. zenru recovered a sliver too late, and by time he was counter-attacking, cubus' sword had stopped on his neck, shaving a few hairs off. cubus jumped back, and sheathed his blade. "i win." he said simply. "i know." zenru replied with a smile. "and next time shall be mine." they started to simply walk away, and zenru retrieved his sword that was embedded in the stone stand right next to ruby's head. "my apologies." he said simply. he smiled. "and dont tell anyone i lost, okay?"

*soon they reached the arena, to see a cloaked pony waiting there* "ah, zenru, i was starting to think you wouldn't show." he said simply. "you know i wouldn't dream of it." zenru said back, with the same tone. ruby took a seat in the stands, which were strangely empty. "this'll be awesome!" she said.

ruby looked at zenru with the most curious face anyone would ever see. "who're you?" she asked, noticing how the air seemed colder around him. "im zenru. and i assume you and your friend here will be going to the arena?" he asked. "yup!" "how uncanny...i was going there, too. for a fight, really." "oooh, and we'll be there to watch!" ruby said, looking at red. "c'mon, lets go!" zenru slowly trotted behind them. "ill be following you..."

yesh. it is.

but iv already posted.

"no way! i mean, i competed in the swordspony tournament, so i know a good arena when i see one, but..." she grinned, and followed her. "lead meh!" she squealed. "this is such a good night! and on the first day!" she added. meanwhile, a dark blue pony was walking on the streets. unknowingly to him, he was about to have quite the interaction.

*flaunts long gorgeous hair* i know!

"argh! this is moments when im mad at life for not giving me wings!" she said, puffing her cheeks out, and pouting. "but im just fine with alleyways!" she got up, and put the food in a bag. "who knows, maybe we'll find some ponies to give some food to!" she started trotting. "c'mon!"

"ah, i can fix that. using the same trick!" she grinned mischiefly. "ah, phooey. i dont like hearing about how i should act." ruby said, laying down, and taking another bite. "this lifestyle makes me happy, so ill keep on doing me." "and sure, we can talk instead of fight!" she added cheerfully, "and im ready whenever you are!"

@@Little Red, its your turn, BTW

yes. enough being weird. it really is a good piece, though

that would be cool, but not now. and isnt it though?

i clicked on this because it had an intriguing title. i really didnt know what to expect. it exceeded all my expectations.

as a teacher in hoof-to-hoof, yesh
