Ghostpony

Seeker let out a small chuckle and this bothered him a bit, in normal occasions he would have easily ignored the mare next to him even if he wanted to ask her a few question's though the more the mare spoke to him the more he spoke back. “ the first thing is i am no pony” Seeker spoke as he looked at the mare then to the group. “It seems we might be resting here for the time being” He spoke to the mare as he waited for her to tell him her name. [[not my best post, a bit brain dead on my side]]

Seeker looked at the mare next to him, as he nodded his head in understanding. "I will not pray, i know how it is to have a troubling past." Seeker Spoke as he looked at Gentle then to the soldier that spoke then finally up to the sky and shook his head. "i have no actual name, but you may call me Seeker, a nickname if you will i got when i had been younger." the griffon spoke a bit of pain coming throw his words but didn't say much else as he waited for the mare to respond to him.

As Seeker walked beside Hearth Heart, he used his already a bit abnormal large size to his advantage to make himself as nonthreatening as possible. Doing so, he used his closest wing as an umbrella for the mare so she wouldn't get wet as he walked beside her. As Such he used his other wing for himself. “So tell me healer, what is one like yourself doing out in a place like that.” Seeker asked as his eyes drifted from the mare then up to the sky as he watched the battle unfold.

Seeker looked at StarShine as he watched her run out and only shook his head as he got up. "it's raining" Seeker grumbled to himself though he didn't try to hide it. As he started to walk towards the door he waited for Hearth Heart, maybe this was the time he was finally able to ask the mare the questions that he wanted to. As he waited for the mare he made sure that none of his things in his bags would get too wet when he stepped outside into the rain.

Before Seeker could answer the Stallion, StarShine had told the two, that she would gladly show them where the group was. "Yes the group isn't too far, though that would be true if they hadn't already started to move." Seeker added as he gave StarShine a slight glare that looked more like a disappointed parent glaring at their misbehaving child. "Why so interested, are you headed in the same path we are?" Seeker asked looking at the Stallion.

Seeker watched the group, he sat what he believed was a respectable distance away from the ponies. After all it wasn't to hard to see that two of the three ponies held high levels of distrust towards him, though it hadn't bothered him. He sat silently when he saw that StarShine had awoken and saw how she was acting, it hadn't bothered him but what did was how Hearth Heart was acting around her. StarShine was a complete unknown to the mare, but she acted as if they were old friends. Seeker shook his head a bit when he heard Solitude Ocean. Seeker had wanted to ask Hearth heart a few questions but thought against it, he would ask his questions when the mare was able to speak to him first.

Seeker gave a small smile to the mare, but that hadn't even worked when he watched her back away and the injured stallion make his way in front of her. The Stallion didn't have a weapon. 'was he planning to take me on bear hoofed, he has guts' Seeker thought an amused smile crossing his beak, but he heard the clopping of hooves coming next to him. When he turned to see StarShine, her weapon drawn. "Safety is still on" The griffin spoke as he thought of his next few words. "I was sent to find you, though when i did i saw you speak to this stallion and it amused me. Seeing you were already returning to the group i went to follow him after all a hurt stallion was easy prey to the raiders that were passing this way." The wind began to blow revealing Seeker’s ‘Hand cannon’ of a pistol as he looked up and towards where the clouds were. “The reason i am here, is to seek knowledge.” Seeker spoke only half of it being a truth. “Though when i saw this mare healing this stallion, i wonted to speak to her, to find a healer in a place like this is very odd.” Seeker spoke “so if i may, can i please enter, i would prefer not to get wet, the storm will be upon us very soon.” Seeker finished as his eyes drifted onto the mare behind the stallion. [[gtg]]

@, @@Demirari, Seeker had nodded at Secret's request of him and without a word left to where he remembered he last saw the missing member of his new group. It hadn't taken the griffon much time to find the missing mare (StarShine), though he watched in silent amusement as he saw her speak to a stallion. Though when the mare started on her way back to the main group, Seeker followed the bleeding stallion (Solitude Ocean) when he saw that he had fallen in front of a door of a shelter. Though before Seeker could sweep down to grab the stallion and aid him, he watched as another mare taken him into the shelter. Through the window he watched as the mare healed him. After a moment of silent internal debate and watching the missing mare he had first went to look for make her way to the shelter and the quite loud gasp she had just made, she most likely had some sort of feelings for the stallion inside. Though that hadn’t stopped Seeker and he found himself approach the the window seal he was sitting on and started knocking on the window. “can you open up” Seeker asked trying to make himself as nonthreatening as possible. After all most ponies would rather shoot a griffon before even saying ‘hello’ atleast the last few one's he had meet in his travels.

@@Demirari, @@Delernil, Seeker’s eyes drifted to the stallion that spoke to him then back at the mare his eyes becoming almost bored as he heard her distrust for him in her words. ‘distrust, good at least the leader knows not to trust everything they see the first time.’ Seeker thought to himself as he rose his eyes from the mare then to the whole group. “you're missing one” Seeker spoke, before he let either the stallion or the mare speak he started talking once more. “you have a large group, a large group brings a lot of attention and when one almost screams to the wasteland their path to wherever they are heading, ambush’s like the raider one on this path will happen more frequently. Word travels fast outside the city's, you have flyer's yet they do not scout a head. you need scouts my wings are fast and i need a group” Seeker spoke as he looked at the mare leaving if he joined her group all up to her.

@@Demirari, As Seeker flew his way down, he was able to see a number of raiders, prepare what looked like an ambush and only shook his head. The griffin turned his head towards the group and scanned each member he was able to see till he stopped at Gentle Secret, doing so he started to fly towards them with quick and quite flappes of his wings. It hadn’t taken the griffin much time to get to the mare and her group his eyes appeared almost locked on Gentle Secret as he flew towards her. "a detour would be advise, ambush of raiders is what awaits you and your group if you continue this path" Seeker spoke when he arrived in front of the group and the mare and just hovered in front of her, after all she had appeared like the leader.

Seeker watched the group as they talked for so long but, they had finally been moving. During the time of silence at the top of the tree he watched as the clouds began moving and saw how fast they were going. “it’s going to be big.” he spoke to himself as he looked at the group walking towards where he sat. Standing on the dead branch he turned to his head as he looked for a suitable shelter, for himself and maybe even a few others, the way they were walking and how the leader was screaming the groups plan out he was sure that a few odd raiders here and there were already following where they thought the noise came from. With one final check on his ‘hand cannon’ he made sure that the weapon was fully loaded as he started to make his way down the dead tree.

Seeker just sat at the top of an old and dead tree as he watched the ongoings of a small group of ponies as they just about left a town that had just recently finished an all about shootout with bandits. the way the group first left the town their mannerisms seemed to almost ooze Epic Adventure off each of them, though that had quickly changed when it came to a few members of the group and how odd they seemed. with another quick glance at the group of miss match ponies he almost wondered, what exactly they group was up to. The way they were heading, he knew without a bit of help they would be hard pressed on food before they would arrive to the next citystate. With a final check of his own supplies, he knew that he had more then enough food and ammo and even a few extra weapons to help them if they saw him and asked him to join after all they were already heading his way. With a group he knew even if the slaver’s would find him, they would have a hell of a fight before they would even get close to him. With another check over his things, he saw that his underarmor was still in somewhat good condition as well as his dark overcoat and his personal pistol that had the word ‘Hand cannon’ scratched on the side of each barrel was as well. ((sorry if its a bit long))

@, Seeker looked at the pink mare and nodded his head in understanding "Then i will visit this sweet store. That is, if you show me were it is, remember i'm new to this town." Seeker spoke as he grabbed the strap's of his bag for an example. "If you wouldn't mind, could we start on this tour of the town?" the griffin asked.

@, Seeker just watched Pinkie for a moment as she ran off to the distance as she see said something about giving him a Pinky Pie welcome. After what felt less then even a minute the pink mare was back, with a canon as well as a whistle and balloons. Seeker watched the mare as she lit the canon as she started to singing and welcoming him to the small town of ponyville. "This is quite a welcome" Seeker spoke as he looked at the mare with a light smile.

@@Ampharos, Seeing how Solus reacted from the question, Seeker stopped Scootaloo from asking Solus her next question about his weird mannerisms. "It's quite alright if you prefer to walk instead of fly, it gives us more time to think just encase something happened to the Crystal empire" Seeker spoke. Hearing Seeker's words, Scootaloo almost seemed to frown. "Do you have to be so dark about everything?" She asked the griffin. "I have to think about all possible situations" the griffin replied as he walked.

@@Ampharos, ((OOC: sorry about that, and sorry it's short a bit brain dead)) Seeker looked at Solus nodded his head as he followed the Draconequus with Scootaloo on his back. "Wouldn't flying be faster?" the orange filly asked looking at from Seeker then to Solus. "i must agree with the young foal, shouldn't we fly their, it would cut the trip in half the time?" Seeker asked, his eyes drifting to the Draconequus.

@@Ampharos, "the crystal empire is quite a distance away, unless you know of quick transport to get their, shouldn't we be on are way then" Seeker spoke as he landed on the ground as he removed his talon from the hilt of his blade and walked to Soul and put his right claw out for a hand shack. "glade to see someone one made it, to see that their willing to be this nice to a stranger is someone i would like to call a friend" Seeker spoke. The moment Seeker landed, Scootaloo had jumped out of the sling she was in and waited for the two to start walking again. Hearing that their might be life at the crystal empire, Rainbow Dash could be their.

@@Ampharos, The way Soul reacted Seeker had put his left talon on the hilt of his blade as if ready for a fight, but what threw him off was how the Draconequus spoke when he saw both him and Scootaloo a moment later. Seeker never removed his talon from the hilt but seemed to physically relax. "Your not the only one looking for some life around here" he replied. "Hey soul don't mind oh feather head right here, I'm Scootaloo and the big oh Griffin here is Seeker.Were are you heading any way, can we join you? we don't know were to go" Scootaloo replied as she poked her head out of the sling Seeker had put her in a few hours before.

@@Ampharos, As Seeker flew over ponyville he shook his head as he saw all the destruction that happened in the small town, though when he was about to start flying again he righted himself as he looked down at Scootaloo. "What is it?" Seeker asked as he saw her point towards a creature he was not to sure what it was, it seemed to be made from a patch work of other creatures. "What is that?" Seeker asked to himself as he kept well above the patch work monster. "Its a Draconequus and he looks like he might need some help"Scootaloo replied as she looked up at Seeker, only for him to let out a small sigh and started to fly towards the Draconequus as he saw it land and almost seem as if it was heaving. "Hey are you alright?" Seeker asked as he seemed to let his wings keep him off the ground just in case the Draconequus was dangerous.

As Seeker’s eyes began to open all he saw was a bunch of blurred shapes and movement, though that didn’t last long as he felt a spiking pain that threatened to return him to the unconscious plane of existence in his mind. With quickly fading consciousness he tried to warn the white and black blur in front of him of something behind her, but what came out was only a bunch of garbled words then nothing. After what felt like a few hours and a massive explosion outside of the EverFree Forest, Seeker’s eyes shot open only for them to squint for a moment before they got use to the darkness of the ruined hut he was in. As his eyes started to adjust to the darkness he saw his Flintlock Revolving rifle as well as his long sword at the other side of the room, seeing the two of his weapons still appeared in good conditions, he let a small smile creep onto his beak. Though when Seeker tried to force his body upwards, he froze when he heard a small whimper. It sounded as if it came from a young filly and it was close. With a quick twist of his head he looked around the room to see a filly at the other side of the hut. Getting a closer look at the filly his eyes went wide, as he saw that it was Scootaloo walking to the younger filly “Hey scoots, you alright?” Seeker ask the younger filly as she jumped on him and gave the griffon a hug as she let tears fall. Between her tears She was able to respond to Seeker “yeah...i’ll be fine, its just my wings broken from when i was thrown around the room from when that giant rock hit the ground...i’m just glad you woke up.” She replied as she held onto Seeker’s neck as she cried. After a minute or two of the filly’s tears she stopped as she looked around. “So what now?” Scootaloo replied as she looked up at Seeker. “Now, we move. We have to figure out what's going on, and who survived the meteor hit or even who survived that last explosion.” Seeker replied as he walked to his two weapons as he got a better look at them and smiled as he looked at his sword but let a small frown hit as he saw that he only had eight shots for his revolving rifle as he strapped his sword to his side right under his left wing and his Revolving rifle on his back. As he looked around he saw what looked like an old backpack, with his claws he made a few modifications as he turned it into a modified sling as he swung it around his chest and put Scootaloo in it as he walked out of the hut and into the EverFree Forest, with a powerful flap of his wings Seeker started flying towards Ponyville. {{OOC: sorry it's so big, i just couldn't help myself, my next post won't be this big}}

Seeker looked at Pinkie and how energetic the mare was, and how she just jumped from topic to topic. "No, i'm not allergic to cake, but it has been awhile since i last had sweets." he confirmed as he looked at the mare. "If you don't mind, can you show me around the town, as you can tell i'm quite new here" Seeker spoke as he moved his bag on his shoulder as it made a bit of noise.

@, Even being as well trained as Seeker was, the pink blur that announced herself as Pinkie Pie surprised the griffon. Though through the years of training and will power, Seeker didn't even let a muscle twitch form the surprise as he turned his head to get a bitter look at the pink pony as he answered her. "It's quite alright, it seems i am a bit of an oddity when it comes to these lands, but the name is Seeker and its a pleasure to meet you Miss. Pie." he smiled as he put his claw out for a shake

As the train pulled into the Ponyville central station, Seeker just released a sigh as he grabbed his only bag and threw it over his shoulder and exited the train. "So this is Ponyville" Seeker told himself with a small chuckle at the name of the small town. Though what caught his attention was how he saw the pegasi moved the clouds, it was true that griffins had the same abilities with moving clouds but back home it was hardly down. To see it being down just reminded him how faraway he was from him and strengthened his resolved to why he choose to leave. With that Seeker found was way out to Ponyville central station and into the small town.

Seeker watched the group with a forlorn expression, he expected the group to move much faster then the slow pace they were setting, but it didn't matter to much, after all Haven wasn't moving anywhere anytime soon and with what he was hearing and seeing most of the group seemed to thrive on communication with their fellow ponies. A group that was able to thrive was a group that could become useful, if unforeseen situations made themselves known. After all, when one has a bounty on their head for being a free slave, as much as he hated to admit it survival was above all else even if it meant using someone or somepony. Though what almost made Seeker chuckle was the way Raptor reacted for the slightest of moments, as the other griffin shifted in his armor when Alizarin stood next to the two. With that, for what felt like the first time throughout the whole little picnic Seeker actually started to eat a bit of what he was given. After all being a slave had some upsides even if they were few and really far between, they seemed to come in handy every once and awhile. [[so sorry it took forever for me to make a post, but i finally made one ]]

Seeker looked at Premier as he saw her visibly relax, but the way that some of her muscles remain tense didn't escape his gaze as he turned to see Alizarin leave the barn. "It looks like it..." Seeker said as an electronic whistle caught his attention. "It seems, that my group’s presence is needed." Seeker spoke up as he waved bye to Premier and flew out of the farm house. As He flew the short distance the voices of his group as well as other ponies...and the rower of readying weapons filled his ears. With two quick flaps of his wings Seeker stood over the group, as he heard Raptor's and Pot Belly's exchange. After hearing Alizarin, he silently nodded in agreement as he landed, "more bloodshed wouldn't accomplish anything" Seeker thought as he readied himself just encase
