Fluttershy nervously appraoched Xander with her little ducklings cautiously stepping forward as Fluttershy did. "Hi..." She trailed, "I'm uh Fluttershy. It's nice to meet you." 

She was rather nervous, it was the second zebra she had ever met asides Zecora. She had no real reason to be scared but for whatever reason she was. Perhaps after years and years of hiding from Zebra's some traces of older memories still remained looming.

 

@, 

He smiled as she was finally ready to start, granted he was a little concerned about Ice. Regardless of how little he knew him, he seemed like a good stallion. But that wasn't important right now.

He stood across from Luna. His necklace began to glow a peach, pink color as it activated and he went to stand in posistion. He grinned and narrowed his eyes, "Your move."

Pinkie Pie was caught off guard as she went flying through the hole she had made previously in the ceiling above.

 

She wasn't punched hard enough to send her into any above objects so instead she just landed on her four hooves right in front of Skitz but this time she didn't smile. Instead her lips quivered and eyes watered. She broke into tears, in pain over what Skitz had just done.She just sat in front of him; bawling.

Twilight couldn't keep her eyes off of Tyra's cutie mark. It was so unique, of course she had seen other fighters Cutie Mark's be something that dealt with fighting but this one was almost identical to this ancestrial weapon. Interesting...  

Another question had entered Twilight's mind, "A raid? What kind of raid?" The first thing she thought of when Tyra mentioned raiding was how ancient barbarian ponies like Leif Marekson who pillaged and raped other settlements. But Tyra didn't seem like the type to do such a thing. But looks could be decieveing.

Sweetie Belle had noticed the Colt staring at her but she decided not to say anything for his sake, granted it was a little weird to have someone eyeballing her. But she shrugged it off.

 

Scootaloo was slightly offended at Speed's question, "No, we're sisters. I assure you. You could ask her yourself, she'll tell you the same thing. I bet you on it!"

 

It was apparent to her friends that Scootaloo was upset about the question and quite honestly, she had a right to defend herself when someone was questioning her relationship to Rainbow Dash. Applebloom decided it would be best to try and divert the topic; to their latter question, "No, I don't believe we've seen her... or for that matter, met her. But going on an adventure sounds fun," she looked back to the other two musketeers who nodded at her in approval. "We're in."

[EZEREPTH]

" a long time ago, a child was born of the Inaros... A product of experimentation, this child's soul was half Phoenix lord, half mortal. His father, Saerael, had been commanded to produce an heir that would be unstoppable in battle, as the ruling dynasty of Leovia at that time were planning a massive, all out war for land, minerals, and hunting ground. They didn't care who they hurt... They were the epitome of what you mortals called greed. Keeping their true intentions obscured, employed Saerael to create a child to spearhead their ambitions. Under the impression that he was doing the deed for peace, Saerael, when he bedded his beloved, transmigrated his soul with mine and ordered me to... Carry onward with the action. Instead of receiving a portion of his own soul, the child received a portion of mine, along with his mother's. when the child was born, so powerful was his soul, that the mother died in birthing him, giving him the rest of the power of her soul just to ensure the child survived. Eventually, Saerael found out the true intentions of the ruling dynasty, and contemplated slaying the child, to prevent his suffering, and to prevent his use as a weapon against others. However, he could not force himself to do it. Eventually, Saerael plotted himself to rebel against the ruling dynasty, but was discovered, imprisoned, and eventually executed by hanging, leaving his son, Zephrael, alone. This son, born of Phoenix, would grow to be the most powerful of all Phoenix knights to ever exist. More yet, he was righteous, loving, faithful, and full of self-sacrifice, much like Kazas. But he too would discover the plot, with him as the centerpiece. Choosing between the good of the world and the good of Leovia... He chose the good of the world. With his mighty soul and unrivaled abilities as a Phoenix knight, he systematically slaughtered the ruling family of Leovia.. Condemned as a traitor, he and his family fled, with him staying behind to face an army of 10,000.... With his awakened azure flame.... He decimated an entire army... Except for one. One righteous friend he had made. Zephrael, being cautious as he fought, spared one soul. His friend, Raziqa. Zephrael had carefully planned events so that Raziqa's family would become the new ruling dynasty by right of rank... And when the battle was done, fell on Raziqa's sword, martyring himself. His azure flame became synonymous with fear, allowing
Raziqa, as his slayer, to ride the coattails of a false legend...."

Ezerepth paused.

" zephrael, righteous in soul, yet woeful as well, was portrayed as a heartless monster and a traitor. His descendants would face the stigma of a traitorous cur, even suffering exile for many years before being allowed to reintegrate with Leovian society."

He paused once more.

" because of what is in Kazas's soul, he may very well awaken the azure flame as Zephrael did. He knows love, righteousness, faith, and sacrifice. But like zephrael, he knows guilt, despair, sorrow, and hatred.... These shall inevitably mix, and the azure terror will be born anew, this time, as Kazas. If he awakens the azure flame, Leovia will hear of it.... And they will come for him, Darkrai... And his sense of duty will dictate his action. He will not resist. Only you, can get him to forget the pain of his past, and prehaps... Change his awakening. Do you understand?"

Darkrai was hung up on every word as the Phoenix spoke. She knew that this was serious business, that this griffon alone could very well be more important to her than anything that has happened in her life prior to this experience. Because of this, she knew what she had to do, "I got it. I love him, and he's the only one who understands me. I won't let anyone or anything, take him from me. Ever! You can rest assure that I'm gonna keep him safe." she said with a confident grin.

"My oh my your an interesting fellow, you have much knowledge to share yes? I would be grateful if you told me more about yourself, you could say your aura is an interesting one."

Kev didn't want to say much. He isn't normally the type to go around talk so much, so he replied simply, "Well there isn't all that much to tell. I'm interested in insects mainly, and finding whole new species of said fauna." he said monotonously.

 

He then thought to himself, "Better watch what I say....never know who's an enemy around here. She could be making something explosive, or worse. Or maybe she's friendly.

" Lover of the Phoenix knight, even if the path be laden with treachery and danger, be not intimidated, for Kazas shall never leave thee unless thou wills it to be so. Though thine soul once grieved and ached for vengeance, it now resembles a paradigm of love and affection that transcends all else.

"Oh, 'tis quite a tale," Tyra chirped, grinning proudly to the alicorn, "Well, the Frostwing Clan had attempted an attack on our village. A few had gotten through the gates, but my parents and the village wizard dealt with them swiftly. My father decided that we should attack them back, to make sure they knew not to try the same mistake twice."

 

"I was but a filly, but I asked and begged and pleaded to come along. I'd had plenty of weapons training, so he finally decided to let me if I was careful. I remember it fondly, gripping the handle of an axe between my teeth, the cold breeze brushing my mane and the spray of the sea on my face."

 

A dreamy look came over her momentarily, before returning to her bright grin.

"Anywho, as if by chance, one of their longboats was coming in our direction! Ragnar, the stallion in charge of our assault, quickly made a new plan; attack the longboat and send them back alive as a warning. And that is what we did!" She hopped on her hooves rather giddily.

 

"They did not take any lives from our village, so we spared them all to spread fear to the Frostwings, make it clear that Trotstheim and its Shatterhoof clan were not to be taken lightly! And that is how I got my cutie mark!"

 

She tapped the dome-like helmet on her head, the wings on both sides at attention. "It is how I got this helmet too!"

@, 

 

4am, a horrible time to be woken from a nice dream. A dream of gold, gems and victory, all shattered in an instant as a monstrous roar echoed across the wilderness. As such it would make sense that the dragon would be beyond agitated as he woke from slumber. With a disgruntled growl the crimson dragon took off into the air from the boulder he called bed for the night in search of the miserable creature responsible for his rude awakening.

 

Ash would’ve had to been blind to miss it; the massive beast, an Ursa Major angrily chasing a pair of tiny ponies across the countryside. Now, the average creature would just leave things be at that point; no reason to rile up a dangerous creature like an Ursa Major, especially one already angry. However this was Ash, at 4am, grumpy, with no breakfast. Something this morning was going to get hurt; badly.

 

The dragon swooped down from the sky. Throat glowing an orange-red as he landed directly between the ponies and monstrous Ursa. Ash opened his mouth and launched a ball of fire like a cannon, the flame sphere impacted the ground at the Ursa Major’s feet, exploding in a shower of fire. It didn’t seem to hurt the creature much, but it certainly grabbed it’s attention.

“Do you have any idea how goddamned early it is?! The sun isn’t even up yet!” Ash yelled at the beast, not caring if it could understand him or not, “But hey, since those weakling ponies don’t seem to want to play with you, I will!”

[Mars Orbit 729]

Skitz stared at pink, who was crying in front of him. "STOP CRYING!!!!" He put his hooves on both sides of her head. "Listen. I need you to-" he stopped mid sentence and pushed pink as hard as he could towards the window. "I'm sorry, but I need the money!" He said with a frown.

Darkrai began to blush as the dream faded, and woke up in the real world noticing how early in the morning it was, "Huh? Woah. It must be 6:00 AM already. The sun is begining to rise." she then turned to Kazas and rapidly nudged him, "Kaz! Kaz! Kaz! Wake up, look at the lovely sunrise..."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, Blizzard wasn't taking the time change all that well, "Goddammit. The sun is about to rise, by calculations of how much power I got left." he began to lightly sob some more, "Just great.

"If you wish me first draw, so be it," Luna replied back to Night Tracer. Her horn glowed, and as a she muttered a few short sentences in an unknown language, a medium sized sword popped into the air in front of her. For a sword, it was incredibly strange, though; it's blade seemed to have no definite form, and wavered back and forth in the space over the hilt. It was pure black, from hilt to point; drawing in light itself as it moved. Finally, there was a faint, high pitched noise that could barely be heard over the sound of the wind, and the grass around Luna's feet began to die, as if the very presence of the blade was causing life to protest.

 

"This is Erebos, my personal weapon," she explained, grabbing the sword in a telekinetic grip and focusing. Immediately, the screaming stopped, and the grass returned to normal. "Kept contained and under control as it is now, it is a thing of beauty. But when allowed to run loose, it can rust steel and corrupt flesh, even kill..."

 

She paused, as if she didn't want to finish her sentence. Instead, she reacted; holding the sword sideways, she quickly darted towards Night Tracer, aiming a light swipe at his mid-section.

 

"Let's start."

Without much fuss, Anette woke up from the hospital bed. Rolling over, she discovered that her dolls were just getting up, as well, and she waited patiently for them. When they finished, she hugged each of them before rolling out of bed and heading down the hall.

Aknor ignored what she said and how she explained how it worked and hugged her, "THAT... That was uncalled for. There was no need to make me think you'd blown yourself up. I was genuinly worried about y-." He looked away for a moment, "Ahem... I mean I could've been kicked out've this continent if you'd blown yourself up," He stammered, loosening the hug a little then tightening it again. "I don't need to lie here, I was seriously worried about you. Don't do that again." He said quickly correcting himself.

 

After an awkward moment he let go of her and looked at the floor shyly, "Sorry about y'know... Insulting your performance before seeing it... And the hug incident..." He was mentally kicking himself,' Why of all the thing you could do, did you hug her? You've probably creeped her out now you foal.'

@,

 

Night Tracer was taken back by Luna's sword, it was massive. It was dark, it was somber. Scary... but it didn't rattle him all too much. He assumed that Luna knew how to use it and he assumed that she'd be using limiters.

 

He waited for her move and for an alicorn, it was a rather bold move. He had expected her to do something more strategic than just charge at him... "quite foolish..." He thought.  But he for sure wasn't going to argue.

She moved with incredible speed but she had already posistioned her sword so it made it obvious as to what exactly she was doing. 

Night Tracer stood, motionless. Waiting like a fool, or it so seemed that way. But mere moments before Luna could strike he bolted to the opposite side of the sword. 

 

He placed his hoof down and flipped over Luna's back. While doing so he grabbed one of his Kukri's and pulled a sedative dart from behind his ear. He flew under her stomach; facing upwards. He drug his Kukri under her stomach, across her skin and jammed the Dart into her stomach but since he was going so fast; he didn't have to let go and it broke off the metal tip leaving it embedded in her skin. 

In less than two seconds he had succsessfully landed his first attack and flew up into the air about 20 feet above and behind her. 

 

He lifted the broken dart in front of himself, "Thought I'd level the playing field a bit." he said as he threw the remainder of the dart to the ground. "It will have done its job in time. Give it a minute." He smiled cockily, to think he had gotten the upper hand already. But he knew that wouldn't last for long....

Fluttershy stepped into the conversation when Xander mentioned her, "Oh. What do you need, perhaps we could help?
