private [closed] Adventures of the Equestrian Seas

Rave wanted to continue to pound the creature. He wanted it to know nothing but pain for taking Caramel. However, he managed to restrain himself and started swimming back to the surface. He used his magic to push everypony up and they were thrown with great force back on the ship. Rave looked madly around him, trying to spot where Caramel landed. "Caramel? Caramel? Ca--" he finally saw her.

*cough cough cough* Caramel opened her eyes as she spit out the water that had filled her lungs. She was breathing heavily, making a wheezing sound as she grasped for air. "Oh dear Celestia *pant pant* I... I'm alive." she set a bit surprised. "I'm alive!!! You guys are alive!!! You saved me!!" Caramel yelled from excitement. "WOOOH!"

violet watched the monster sink. 'you almost took my friend' she thought, rage pulsing through her. 'just like you've killed others before us.' she shook. 'i need to see if caramels okay.' she looked back at the monster. 'i should kill it. finish it off, make sure it cant kill anyone else...' she looked up, then down. 'tch! friends come first.' she swam back to the surface, and jumped on the deck. "caramel! dont do that!" she punched her arm playfully.

[Pucksterv 4,508]

"I'm sorry I scared you" Caramel said rubbing over the spot where Violet hit her. "Look, I can see a bit of sun coming threw the clouds!! Now let's just hope that monster doesn't come after us." Caramel said still breathing a bit heavily. She turned to Rave, she saw that he was out of breath as well. He put a lot of energy into saving her or at least that is what she thought she saw before she blacked out. "I owe you all my life! But you there, Rave. I think I owe it to you most of all! Thanks everypony!!" Caramel cheered as she quickly gave Rave a kiss on his cheek before she headed below deck "Let's go drink and celebrate lads!!"

Tyra got herself up after being slammed onto the deck by Rave's magic. She picked up her axe and put it in its harness before staggering over to Caramel, shaking off the water like a wet dog.

 

With her wits about her, she put on a huge grin and embraced Caramel in a suffocating hug.

"I am so glad you are still with us, my friend!" She yelled, holding her embrace for a while longer before letting go at last. "That monster shan't be coming after us, we all made sure of that!"

 

She listened as the captain thanked them, and smirked at Rave as he got a peck on the cheek.

[JonasDarkmane 19,785]

Rave waited for a while, making sure that everypony was going below deck. His mind was swirling, the kiss.... so many thoughts were going through his head. He was happy. However, he was still aware of the moment. He felt a lot of pain going through his body. He went over to one barrel that contained rainwater. He looked in it. A pony with a completely black mane, slightly green glowing eyes and fangs looked back at him. He sighed. "The price of dark magic is always a big one".

"Why don't you guys go ahead, set up the drinks. I gotta go dry myself off." Caramel said as she pointed at the kitchen table.

She walked towards her quarters to grab a towel when she noticed Rave starring into the water. "Come on pretty boy, let's go have a drink." she said as she walked up to him. "Thanks for saving me back there. I don't care if ye used dark magic or not, you risked yer life for somepony else. You risked yer life for everypony else. Don't worry about it. Ye'll look like yer old self again in time." She said with a smile looking at him. "Come on, let's go and have a drink."

Rave was surprised that Caramel did not care how.... unsettling he looked. The usual response from ponies was to chase him away with fire and pitchforks. However, that had only happened 5 times his whole life (being chased by ponies with pitchforks). He followed Caramel. 

[Unicorncob 5,681]

Tyra happily trotted down to the kitchen, still dripping wet from the water, and helped herself to a big mug of rum.

 

She sat herself down and took a few hearty gulps before Caramel and Rave finally arrived in. She blinked at the stallion, noticing at how different he looked. It was rather...malicious-looking.

She knew there was dark magic at play here.

 

However, he seemed to be himself, and Caramel looked perfectly calm around him, so she had no reason to judge. He was definitely still in there.

Which would make it all the easier to apologise to him. Her behaviour when fighting the beast must have been so bad that they reacted how they did, resulting in Caramel getting captured.

 

Rave would probably despise her after that, and the last thing she wanted was to be hated by a companion for her behaviour.

[JonasDarkmane 19,785]

Rave looked around. "They are looking strangely at you, they know that you are a threat. They will try to deal with you.... unless you deal with them first". Rave tried to dismiss the voice. "I will go back to my hiding place, but I will be back. You will never be rid of me. Hahahahaha". Rave tried to look as normal as he could, but it was a little bit hard, being so deformed. He walked past Tyra, trying to find something, but he was neither hungry not thirsty. He found himself a seat and sat down and was quiet.

Caramel sat down at the table. She pointed at the space next to her and looked at Rave as a invite for sitting next to her. "Today's 'litlle' incident was no ones fault but my own and I want to apolagize for that. I should've turned the ship around when I had the chance but it seems that we managed anyway." She said with a smile. She filled herself a cup of cider and also passed one on to Rave. "Enjoy while ye still can, cause this is the last barrel of cider there is left."

[Unicorncob 5,681]

"No," Tyra spoke up, putting on a stern face as she looked toward Caramel, "If it were not for my actions, you would not have had to put yourself into harm's way. Or in this case, the monster's."

 

She bowed her head in shame. "I nearly broke my vow with my actions, and I apologise wholeheartedly. Any punishment you give me, I will accept it."

 

She certainly felt ashamed for putting her companions into danger, and the news that there wasn't much cider left wasn't helping.

[JonasDarkmane 19,785]

Rave smiled at Caramel but pushed away the cider she had given him over to Tyra. "Thank you but I am not thirsty" he tried to put on a convincing smile. He looked over to Tyra as she started talking and his smile faded as he heard her statement. He felt really sorry for her. 

[Pucksterv 4,508]

"Tyra, it was not yer fault. Everyone of us was fighting that monster. The only reason I got caught is because I went to fight with you, because that's what we do. We help each other out. There is no need to feel ashamed for trying to help and protect yer companions." Caramel said with a smile as she put an arm around Tyra. "We all got out alive, that's what matters the most."

Tyra glanced up at Caramel as she spoke, and her ears raised slightly along with her mood. It was really uplifting to hear that she didn't blame her, and she was right; they were all in it together, and they rescued her together.

 

"Yes, you are correct," she nodded, her grin returning as she grabbed the mug Rave had passed on to her and put her own arm around the captain, "we are all safe and sound, so I have made good on my promise!"

 

Though, one last apology was in order. She looked toward Rave, and as different as he looked to his usual self, he was still Rave in her eyes, so her face was not judging.

"Rave, I apologise for angering you before for my behaviour. I hope you can forgive me." She bowed her head once more, though with not nearly as much shame as before, but there was still some there.

[P-Jay 1,987]

Violet watched the scene. Brooding. She had screamed internally when she heard about the shortage of cider, and she still didn't trust rave. Her solution? Grab the cider! Take it and fly to the crows nest! "Come along, flare!" she yelled as she flew away, determined to claim the rest of the cider.

[sorry for not posting often]

 

After a long time, Assassin came late when the others had a hard time. She saw the others, wet and exhausted. After she saw the captain, she went up to her and spoke, "Sorry, I wasn't really paying attention.. anyway, what happened to you ponies? Why you ponies look.. different?"

[Dust and Memories 557]

"Oh, nothing," Wilhelm replied sarcastically. "We definitely didn't just risk all our lives to fight a massive sea monster. How was your day? With the exception of a cannon blowing up in my face, mine was wonderful." He gestured to his face, which was streaked with ash, blood from myriad cuts, and gunpowder.

[JonasDarkmane 19,785]

Rave smiled sympathetically towards Tyra's apology, revealing rows and rows of sharp teeth. "It is alright, you were only following your heart". His head hurt a little as he felt he was being pressured. "I think I will go to bed early" he said with a apologetic tone. He tried to look convincing. He stood up from his table and started walking. He stopped as he looked at Wilhelm, nodding to him.

[Unicorncob 5,681]

Tyra nodded to Rave, her grin returning. The sharp teeth were certainly new, but they didn't faze her at all.

 

She gave another nod at his early departure. "Rest well, my friend. You need it."

 

As she took another hearty gulp of cider, after scowling at Violet attempting to take the rest for herself, her gaze ventured toward Wilhelm, which turned her grin into a look of shock.

"By Sleipnir's mane," she yelped incredulously, "what happened to you?!"

[JonasDarkmane 19,785]

Rave walked for a while, his head swirling, until he finally managed to reach his room. He opened the door with his hooves. His magic was burned out for now. He walked in a drooping way towards the bed. As he reached it, he crashed down into it and fell asleep. 

[Pucksterv 4,508]

Caramel stood up from her seat to get some rum from her secret stash since Violet took the rest of the cider. Caramel looked around as she found the last box of cookies so she took some of those too. It kinda made her sad, knowing that it will take long until there were cookies again. She walked back to the kitchen with her rum and cookies with a smile and sat down back at the table.

[Unicorncob 5,681]

Tyra watched as Caramel left the table, and finished her drink in a few large gulps. She grinned as she returned with some more cider, and some cookies as well! She'd be more than happy to have some, after all that had gone on.

 

"The monster has finally been slain, yes?" She said, her grin beaming at the captain as she grabbed a few cookies for herself and stuffed them in her mouth.

 

As she crunched, she blinked at her.

"So, what do we do with the beast gone?" She attempted to say, but it just came out as muffled mumbling and little sprays of crumbs.

[Lordav 3,427]

Lordy just came back after cleaning the gunpowder of himself. He was soaked.

"Forgive me to interrupt... But i doubt it is slain. Barely wounded... Maybe... But dead, not by ohr hoofs at least.

 

Now if u forgive me... I need to recreate a bit..."

 

He collapsed on a chair and took a small cassette out of his pocket. He takes out a cigar from it and lights it. He slowly takes it to his mouth while watching the thin smoke escape through the cracks of the wooden roof.

[Littlecandylulu903 415]

@@Lordav,

 

Spellbind had just stayed pretty much silent throughout the discussion taking place at the kitchen table. She had opened her mouth once, about to speak, before closing it, not knowing what exactly to say.

 

When Lordy lit a cigar, Spellbind didn't make an effort to dodge the smoke. Odd as it was, she actually enjoyed the smell of cigarette (or otherwise) smoke
