With one final push, Cynthia kick off the lid of the metal bin that she'd been in for hours. She poked her head out and breathed heavy for a couple seconds and then prepared her tirade for the bone she had to pick.

 

"What the hell is wrong with everypony around the mines?! I give this job a try just because I needed some bits, and on my first day, I fall into a trash can?! And then! No one notices the new girl that's been missing for hours! I seriously need a better job than this!"

 

She was fully convinced that it was everypony else's fault, even though she had foolishly fell in after trying to empty it.
 

With a huff, she climbed out and walked away from both her shame and the startled ponies before her.

 

"I quit." Cynthia muttered, walking away slowly.

Charlie scurried over to some of the standing figures and transformed into a translucent form of each of them until he found one he liked. "This one seems interesting," he said while he was standing in front of one which, aside from having orange wings, 'mane,' and tail, and a red-orange back piece, looked fairly average in appearance. "The only problem I have is the eyes. These ones," he said, pointing his changeling hoof at a pair of green eyes on the table, then he blinked and his eyes changed to match them, "yeah, I really like these ones." Then he saw a normal sized horn on the table with a slight zigzag shape like a lightning bolt and his eyes lit up. "Ooh, I really like this horn, can I get this one instead?" he asked changing his appearance again to include the new horn. To anyone else, it might seem like he made these decisions a bit to quickly for being such an indecisive spirit earlier, but to him, he had picked the best options available, of course not knowing the difference between changeling royalty and normal changelings.

Priestess watched the teleportation display with mixed emotions... before-
 
"....Pffft bwhaaahahahaha! Hahahahaha *cough cough cough* haha hah "cough cough cough* curse you for doing something hilarious while my insides are rearranged!" she managed to breathlessly spout out. Dio was pawing at the barrier Syo crafted around herself. She starts licking it. It looks something like this:

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xm0dpHoFy1c

 
Meanwhile, Petey wondered over so he could face last while she was on her knees. He got closer. Closer. Closer. Until he jumped up... and nuzzled her on the way down. He was enjoying the adoration he was receiving, and was hungrily devouring every ounce of it. Figuratively and literally. 
 
"Okay. *cough* Okay. It's obvious you all planned this out. It appears I'll have to talk to you like adults. By using my psychic powers!" It is here Priestess began to tap into one of her abilities: Kitsune-go. The ability for she and her kin to communicate telepathically. And even if some of her litter weren't "kits" and communicated through "other means", their brothers and sisters share the same genes, and can communicate through those same means. In short, they'll all understand her. 
 
*tap *tap* "Is this thing on?  Is this- check, check, one two!" "Yes mom! We can hear you fine!" thought out Dime. "Good, good. Okay then. So... what the hay was up with that!?" she asked. "I dunno. Dio was the brains." "Was not!" She thought as she looked away, tongue still on the bubble, and long fans still patruding from her muzzle. "You all thought, "Hey let's catapult Dio up there so she can bite that jangling thing!" "You still went with it didn't you!?" "Well yeah. But still, your guys's idea!" "Hey hey hey! Not the point. You bit the nice cat ladies tail. You know what you must do." "I do?" "You do!" 
 
"Dio, what do we say to the nekojin for biting her tail?" Dio paused her tongue licking. Pulled away for a moment, face in contemplation, before saying "Thank You!" Priestess just sighed. "That's probably as close as you're gonna get to an official apology." "Hey, isn't that what tails are for? To be bitten on? " "Ugh, Bae, talk some sense into your daughter." Shaman looked over to the display. "Ahem." Shaman said, in his thoughts, but the voice was certainly female, with a distorted echo, like two voices speaking slightly out of sync. "Dio, darling. How would you like it if something bit your tail with fangs as long as yours? By the way, they're showing." "Hmm. I'd take it as a challenge! Bite their tail too! Bite Off!" "Hmm. I got nothing." "Oh come on Bae, you weren't even trying! You're their Queen, can't you order them to not buck everything up." "Yeah, but your their mom. That kinda screwed things over from the get go."
 
Unbeknownst to them, anykit, or anypony, or anyling, who absorbed Kitsune magic, or had a link to the hive mind, could very well be listening in on the argument.

Missklang's head started to hurt a little. Then more, and even more... It was weird as he usually didn't have that kind of problem before. He started to hear whispers in his head, too indistinguishable for him to comprehend. He tried to focus on distinguishing words, but it was hard as his head was hurting...

"We are under attack! Take cover! I intercepted an enemy transmission! They are going to attack us right now! They are planning to attack Syo! Last! Protect the baby foxes!"

 

Missklang's horn glowed, creating a massive force shield around himself, big enough to cover those around him. However, he miscalculated the spell and forgot to make the light able to pass through, plunging everyone underneath the shield in total darkness. His horn emitted a strange sound and stop glowing, however as he casted a permanent shield, it didn't dissapeared.

Petey wouldn't go hungry soon, no matter how fast he ate Last's emotions. Normally hiding them and shelter herself to keep calm and ready for a fight, Last usually had an increased amount of emotions pass through when the gates finally opened. Be it rage, laughter, or in this case, adoration and love. It didn't really matter.

 

Not that she would get that she was being fed on. She had never been before, and as she ran her hoof down the fluffy little kit's fur, it would take a lot to notice anything wrong for her. Like, for example, if Missklang started to have a fit and cover them in total darkness.

 

"Oh for the love of..."

 

She didn't want to, but she rose up and turned to draw her blade - before she then realised how much of a bad idea that was. It was completely dark in here, several beings, including children, were present, and both swinging and a potential reflect attack coming from the barrier could end up harming somepony.

 

Grumbling about how she really had to remember to get an enchanted blade sooner rather than later. she closed her right eye and opened the normally closed left one. The one with the old scar going across that was more adapted to the dark.

 

It helped her see things in there, and mainly who it was that had set this up to begin with: Missklang, whom she then walked over towards with large steps, though she was also making sure she wasn't stomping on anypony, so it wasn't going That fast. She wasn't entirely sure what she'd do when she got to him, but she was a simple pony with simple solutions to things. Magic usually required a focused caster, so she just had to snap him out of things a little.

 

More than likely, that meant clocking him.

Dave wandered over and inspected Charlie wandering a bit around to make sure he had gotten all the pieces correctly memorized.

 

"A minor edit. I can have this done within minutes. Unless you trust me to handle the incantations Vivid?"

 

A small laughter escaped Vivid at the notion.

 

"I trust you to do many things, but not without having some fun on your own. Wait with it until I am there, and then we can talk about it. Amongst other things."

 

"You should get here soon then, before I start getting bored and sit with idle hands."

 

Vivid nodded and met his gaze with narrowed eyes.

 

"A race against your boredom? This might turn out to be interesting."

 

Dave cackled loudly whilst the workshop he had up disappeared, and the crimson shade ran up the mountain again without him saying more to the others. He had work to do, and a clock to race against if he wanted to place some... Interesting changes into the enhancements before Vivid would be able to stop him.

 

Having no further thing to do there, Vivid turned around and faced Charlie and Briar. She was thankful that Dave had been in a good enough mood and more focused on playing ith her than he had them, but it was to be expected more or less. They had not seen eachother for a while now, and the demon had so very few friends - or beings that wanted to be near him in general - that any interaction was likely fun for him. It would more than likely also be what would make things take a bit of time when she did reach him in the waking world, but t least not much of the others time.

 

Much like the zone she traversed when she went away in a puff, the time flew very different. It would be what would save them from having to wait for days for her to finally appear, and it would be what would save them the bother of up to another day added into the mix whilst her and Dave got the enchantments the body needed ready. It wasn't just stitching it together after all, it had to be infused with the right seals to last whilst life was breathed into it.

 

"We're done here. He will handle some, I will join him in the rest, but I need to be awake for that. Return me to my dream so that I can wake up, then send Briar back as well and get back to the portal we were in before this to wait. I will bring something you can settle in so we can get you back into the world of the living and start working."

 

She wasn't usually impatient, but she knew Dave. He was a stitcher of great renown and speed, and giving him time to sit with idle hands over a project was a bad idea unless you liked him to add things for his own amusement. For a Demon, he was fair and had some degree of honour in things, but he was still exactly that, a Demon, and they had a certain fascination with messing around with things if they got the chance.

Out from some nearby shadows, Blitz Boom slightly bounced out with a closed bag on her back, looking at Cynthia with big eyes and a smile on her face.

 

It should seem pretty odd considering that not only were this a little late for fillies to be out in general, but nopony had tried to take her off with them, which seemed to show that there wasn't any adults looking out after her either. Sure, they were in Ponyville, but still, it wasn't regular.

 

It was hard to tell if that would be the first concern though, considering that whatever mine she might have been at before wasn't here. Then again, this particular container usually wasn't either, so it would seem that either she hadn't made a sound and they had rolled it to a nearby town for easy emptying when the trash collectors would come around, or some jokesters had done it on purpose after hearing somepony being trapped in there. Seemed like a bit of a hazing situation, but new bloods tended to have somepony mess around with them.

Missklang's senses worked 150% with the potential thread around. He felt as the air near him moved slightly and caught a move in a corner of his eye. He jumped to his right, grabbing the hoof that was going to hit him and thrown the one the hoof belonged to over his shoulder. He looked on the attacker and saw that that was just Last. He bended over her and smiled awkwardly.

 

"Hey. Last! I didn't recognise you in the dark, however, my dragon eyes permit me to see in the dark. I'm not the enemy you know. I thought you knew some night visionor some stuff like that. Anyway, you should not worry, even if you would succeed at knocking me out, we would still be protected. You see, I cast a spell that create a shield for a finite amount of time, in this case, half an hour, and don't require me to constantly keep the spell up! And it's magic resistant too! If the enemy uses magic, any spell that could cancel the shield would be absorbed! Genius right?"

Last wouldn't be all that Missklang would see if he bothered to look. He would also see the familiar shape of the blade pressing against the air an inch from his throat, and the pale visage of Last's light sensitive eye boring into him with an icy glare.

 

It wasn't the first time she had been thrown around in her time, and one of her trainers back home had made almost an art form in taking advantage of the momentum another being had when they just swung them like this. So as she had been taken over his head, she had grasped hold of her katana, raised it close to her and per instinct swung it as she had approached the floor.

 

Her trainer would have likely been proud that she had the self control to not let the instinct take over entirely since this manoeuvre and others like them essentially involved striking, which would have left him with a cut through the neck. Yet, that didn't mean that she wouldn't retaliate.

 

As he was done talking, she turned the blade slightly around and - with the flat side of the blade pressed against Missklang's head - pushed hard to the side, which made a swirling motion that left him on the bottom and her on top, looking down on him.

 

"Your shield is blocking out the light too. Remove the shield, or make the light shine through before it scares the kits."

 

The voice was low, but said close to his face and was clearly meant as a strong suggestion. He might be able to intercept some attacks and make do with a blade through him, but anypony could be hurt if you wanted to, and if she had to, she would punch him through the shield to prove that point. That is, if he didn't fix his mistake fast.

Truth be told, she still weren't sure she would have enough energy from simply resting, but there were ways around that... It wasn't a comfortable way, but she had a job to do and little time to waste. In situations such as that, an alternative road sometimes had to be walked upon.

Ziggy was another thing however. Listening to the song she hadn't taken long to get a dreamy look over her face and go into a sort of trance that made her slightly sway where she stood, even after the song had finished.

She taps on the gem, concern etched on her face, but she's too content and full to work on it right now. "Thank you...Ziggy..normally...singing...is not...as fulfilling." She smiles, then frowns looking toward Omen. "What...time...is it?"

Missklang's horn glowed as he levitated a jar full of fireflies from his bag. He opened and soon, surrounding space was full of small bits of flying light that give a bit less of light than a candle, giving a magical and cozy atmosphere and intensifying the shadows. He approached the shield and started scanning it in an attempt to find a way to deactivate it. His horn glowed, but he achieved nothing. He tried a teleport spell, nothing. He tried to cast a complex transdimensional spell, but it failed too. The shield was perfectly sealed off to the outer world. He thought about digging down but remembered that this type of shield was spheric. Out of ideas, he turned to Last and started awkwardly step from one hoof on another like a guilty child.

 

"Heeey, Last.....Um...There is a tiny little problem. Nothing to worry about.....Um, I found out that I can't deactivate the shield. You see, there is something in this castle, emancipating a huge amount of magical energy into the air. The magic is absorbed by the shield and take over the initial spell, keeping it from ending. That something that is feeding the portal is using the harmonic type of magic, so I can't do much as I'm not very good at it. That's a Twilight level unicorn type of magic... And the fact that there is a magical portal nearby is also not helping. And we can't blast through using brute force as it's obviously made to resist that type of attacks.... And also, the air in here will keep us alive for twelve hours max., but as I know some spells, it won't be a problem to synthesize more air. That's a good news, right? But I hope we will find the solution to the problem before. I have food too, so we can stay here forever if you want, but I guess you won't approve this option..."

"so let me get this straight, you basically trapped us in this bubble you have no idea how to pop" said cresent sheathing his blade back in the gauntlet and now rounding on Misklang. "or are you sure we are about to get attacked, cause if we are we're fine." 

 

Cresent then remembered what misklang said when they met before hoof after the spider fight. about his blade having a dark magic vibe to it, he breathed out trying to think "didn't you say something about my gauntlet before hoof. I might have an idea"

"Not just any bubble! One that is totally resistant to any physical and magical attacks. I bet my collection of anachronic objects on the fact that even Celestia or the elements of harmony could blast through. But I might have an idea too. You see, this is not a pure magical barrier. It's composed of a very special type of crystal. If I do some calculations, I might find the perfect frequency to use on the wall so they enter into a perfect resonance. That would weaken the molecular structure of it and it will be possible to break it with enough force. But it is an extremely strong material, so I would have to find the exact spot to strike too...."

Missklang levitated a stethoscope from his bag. He approached the wall and started listening to it while knocking on the wall with his hoof.

 

"This is a very special spell. It's been developed years, to make it resistant to any kind of damage. I believe even Starswirl at one point put his hoof to the development of it. As the crystals are of a specific form, they are see through and crystal clear from one side and totally opaque on the other. As I messed up the spell, I believe that if someone approaching from the other side will see us Like if we weren't trapped at all, but if he comes closer, he would remark a nearly invisible wall..."

"Ugh, this is getting ridiculous." Priestess said rubbing her eyes. "Every kit back in the crate!" With that, all the kits jumped back in to the wooden saddle bag structure. All except for two. "Petey, you can play with Lady Death Horse later. Back in the box! Dio! Step away from the Cat!... I don't care if her shield tastes like mayo! You get back her with your brothers and sisters or I'll guarantee you wont get another chance to bite her tail again!" Dio turned away from Syo with a "humph." Petey slowly walked away from Last back towards the crates and jumped in with his sister.

 

She heard Crescents statement towards her & Shaman.  And she did star listening, and smelling. The whole place felt a little off, even when they got in. "Hai, wa i, watashi wa shitte imasu." (Yes, yes, I know.) Kono zentai no basho wa irete ofu ni natte imasu (This whole place is off putting). Bae, think you can sense anything that we can't?"

 

And Shaman was looking, feeling things out with all his senses. Sight, sound, smell, and emotion. He sensed emotions from all those around him. If something was going to attack, he would sense them and their intent. 

 

"Okay. Chaos pony. You said you intercepted a "transmission", yes? What exactly did you hear?":
