Marathon

Stacy gave herself a mental pat on the back. She didnt know that it was possible for an earth pony to what she was doing now. "Hi." She paused to think a out what to say. "Can you send Littlehop a message saying were being picked by a cargo ship? Tell her its from Stacy." Stacy paused to let him reply unsure of how long she could hold the conversation since she "casted" the spell or what ever it was.

Ok so will guns be alowed if there are going to be things like what i think might happen. Or is it hand to hand combat?

Stacy looked in the direction she thought was ponyville and tried to remember the name Rose had told her. Boggling her mind she couldnt remember. As soon as she stopped trying to remember it poped into her head. *of course.* she thought to herself. She whispered "Descant" to the air hopeing it would work.

Hey is there going to be combat in this RP? Im just wondering. Cause if there is then i want my character to be ex: military dude(who is also a brony). Also hes good.

You should play as Descant. I want to see how he is in an rp. Also how much longer is this one going to last?

Hmm, well ok. Never mind. I will be playing as littlehop for the next Rp no matter what. I already have a plan set out for if stacy gets rejected. If its alright i kind of want to play as two ponies.

Well depending on how the rp ends for stacy, i may or may not change. If it dosnt end with rose chosing her then no i wont change if it does then i will change. Idk i might just change over all. It just depeneds for me.

After a few more minutes of Spark rowing them towards the raft they finally met. Stacys moral rose as she collected her saddle bag and went to the side where the rescue boat was and steped on. "Come on guys, i want to get home soon." She then turned to one of the stallions. "Are you guys heading to equestria?" "Yes ma'am." He replied kindly.

Stacy took the telescope an looked through it. "Wow, theyre pretty close. Its probably only thirty minutes out. If we all pitch in we can get to it." She said removing the telescope from her eye. "If we can use a levetiation spell to push the raft we could make it in fifteeen." She said in a excited voice.

Stacy was sleeping peacfully when she was suddenly hit by a splah of cold sea water. She jumped up breathing hard from the surprise an looked around quickly and saw Sombers sopping wet mane. "Somber! Your manes all wet!" She said with a hint of annoyance. It didnt matter. It wasnt the first time today shes gotten wet. "Hey, what are you guys looking at?" She asked coming up to Spark and Rose with a curious expression.

Stacy thought about it but she didnt want to pester Hop. "Maybe later. Its getting late, we should get some sleep." She said getting up and stretching. Stacy pecked rose on her cheek and quickly turned to go find a spot on the raft. When she found a small spot she curled up and closed her eyes falling asleep almost instantly.

Alright i will. I might post previews on me and my friends youtube channel. Were adding a pony section to it and ill be in charge of that. Darkbiomen1 Theres the channel name if you guys want to check it out. (My vids are in the Mr. Bubbles playlist)

Stacy looked back at Rose, tears flowing again. "You really think so?" Stacy looked at the small red and orange dot on the horizon. "It dosnt feel like i do. And i just blew off one of my best friends and my brother. I dont know what ls wrong with me, ive never done that to Hop before." She suddenly wished that her brother would try to talk to her again but she knew he wouldnt. Not after what she did.

Ok so guess what guys. Ive decided to draw everyones OCs. So far ive completed two and they look nice. I will post them on the art section when theyre all finished.

Stacy nodded in agreement. "I understand. We should be home soon though. We all just need to take a minute and breath...me especially." Stacy paused to let her words sink in to herself. She needed to find a way to relive her stress, but she didnt know what. She looked at Rose who face was tormented by tears. "I never want to hurt you like that again. I probably deserve some form of verbal abuse from you or from someone here for doing all the crap ive done to you. I dont even deserve to be one of your choices. But why are you still considering me? Im sure ive given you more reasons to hate me then to like me." Stacy stopped herself to calm herself down, then looked away from Rose ashamed.

Ohhh, *raises hand* can i play as a human? I want to be a human please. I dont actually have a OC human but i can make one on the spot.

A few minutes passed and Rose was still crying. Stacy realized just how badly she hurt Rose and that her attempts to make her happy were useless. She could tell Rose didnt really want her there, but Stacy had to try something to somewhat lift her mood. But what? By this point Stacy had tears of her own. She wished Rose would talk to her, even if it was only to verbally assult her. She didnt care and frankly she deserved it. "R-rose...i really am sorry. I didnt mean any of it." Stacy paused as she looked around. "If you dont want me here...then just say so and ill leave." Stacy stopped brushing Roses hair and put her back to hers. "Im so sorry i did this to you." The last sentence was barely audible as she spoke it and more tears ran down her cheek.

After a few minutes Stacy calmed down she looked around the boat. Everyone seemed to be doing their own thing. She then noticed Rose by herself crying, probably because of her action. Stacy went up to her cautiously and laid next to her, pulled her close and began to brush her mane. "Its ok. Its not your fault. Im sorry you had to hear that...im..im just really stressed right now. Calm down alright." She said her voice loving and tender. Stacy regreted doing what she had done. It wasnt healthy for her and she also hurt Rose. She hopped Rose would alow her to stay by her side even after what she had done.

Stacy replied to Rose with a blank stare. She didnt know what to think. Stacy sighed, "Alright, whatever." Her brother tried again. She decided it was impossible to get him to stop. *What?* she asked. *Finally! Stace, whats wrong?* Still facing rose, Stacy rolled her eyes. *Look im busy alright! Just leave me alone.* There was a pause. *Ok, fine. Can you atleast talk to hop?* Stacy got up and paced around. *Yeah just make it quick.* *Stacy? Hun talk to me. Youre acting weird i can hear it in your voice. Is the trip going well?* Stacy had it. "No the trip isnt going well." She said out loud as if speaking through her mind wasnt enough. Even though the others would hear, Hop needed to know just how bad things were. "The bucking boat sank, i tried to kill myself again! We got stranded on an island with zebras who tried to kill a few of us. Then the island turned out to be a volcano and it erupted. And now were on a makeshift raft where almost everyone here is hurt or dying! Yes the bucking trip is going fine!" Stacy caught her breath as there was a long silence and she felt like everyone was looking at her. *Stacy...i didn....* stacy cut her off. "No you didnt, did you. Now leave me alone so i can continue to try and live. Ive got bigger problems then having to talk to you. Good bye Hop." With that Stacy blanked out her mind to close off the spell. She stared out into the ocean now more worked up than she needed to be.

Stacy smiled as Rose laid next to her. She could feel the warmth of her body radiating off her. Firecracker then Yelled something about a giant wave. Stacy felt the raft lift up and then back down splashing water onto her. But she didnt mind. "Yeah well, im not to happy about it." She replied to rose. (ooc: dinner time!) "As for coming to see your garden, id love to. Right now im just a little stressed out with the whole volcano thing and having to tend to everyone else whos hurt and what not. You...you did the largest strain on me. Not on purpose but still. You scared me when you were...you know." Stacy paused to block off her brother again. "I just want you to know, no matter what ill be by your side." She shivered again as the cold wind cut down to her bones, and she curled up to keep warm.

Stacy didnt look at Rose. She didnt want her to see the hate in her eyes. Stacys brother had some guts to try and talk to her after what he did. Stacy put her concentration back to Rose as her brother tried to reach her again. "...It was my brother and Hop. They were just checkin up on me." Stacy looked up at Rose as she shivered. It was starting to get cold and the sun was getting pretty low. "Do mind laying next to me?" She asked, the stress fighting its way into her voice.

(OOC: well stacy did go back to the landing and collect cans of food into the suitcase. Incase you missed that) Stacy didnt bother to argue with Star. She was to tired to even try. At this point she wanted to be left alone, but at the same time she longed for somepony to be at her side. To comfort her. She didnt care who, but if no one did she decided she was going to stay in the spot where she was and never move. And let herself starve to death. It wasnt quick, but it she assumed it would be painless. *Stacy. Stacy can you hear me?* a voice rang through her mind. It was awfully familiar. *Hop? Is that you?* she asked hopping she wasnt going crazy and just talking to herself. The voice replyed, *Yeah its me. Listen ive got your brother here doing his mind talk spell.* Another voice came through. *You kow its not easy doing a three way converstaion. Hey, stace. We just wanted to check up on you. We got the letter. Its good to hear youre laying off the liquor. So how have ya been?* Stacy paused a second. *Im fine.* she lied. *I have to go, were kind of busy. You know ball room dancing and what not. I'll talk later.* she then cut off the spell. Her brother had done it on her so many times it was easy. Its been years since she had seen him. He had moved to Canterlot years before now. It hurt to shut him out like that but she wasnt in the mood to talk to him. Or Hop for that matter. So she continued to lay on the raft watching the water as it calmly rolled past the it.

Now extremely annoyed Stacy got up and went to the suitcase she had packed full of food and other supplies. Grabbing a random can and can opener she went and took it to Star. She slammed the can next to her and threw down the can opener next to it. "Here! Now stop whinning!" She said her voice stern and rude. Stacy went back to her corner and layed down covering her ears.

Stacy hear Star squealing about something. She looked and saw the fish. "Star put it back! Were herbivores remember, we dont eat meat." She had praticaly yelled that, but not intentionally. By the time she finished Spark had already used his magic to get rid of the fish. Stacy put away her ocarina and layed on the raft with an annoyed and frustrated sigh, which was a little louder than he wanted. The stress was finally getting to her and she could feel it.

*She invited him? Why didnt i get invited?* her thoughts were still a jumbled mess and listening to Roses and Sparks conversation wasnt helping. *Im losing. How am i losing? Ive spent the most time with her, told her that i love her...am i really that bad?* her stomach growled and she realized how long its been since she ate. But depression was setting in again and she didnt feel like eating anything. She was to tired, sad, and she just didnt feel like it. She didnt even feel like crying anymore. Letting out a sigh she took off her saddlebag and got out her ocarina. For some reason it felt alien to her, like she wasnt supposed to be able to play it. So instead she stared at it not thinking about anything. She even stopped listening to the conversation. She was alone in her own little world, and she hated it.
