open Bangcolt Arena! (Fighting/Sol) (RP)

[Fractured 2,684]

@The Down Trotten, 

"Okay, as long as you're thinking clearly. I don't want you to wake up in the middle of a bad mistake." Applejack still thought he was plumb crazy, but as he was a rational adult, she figured it was none of her business in deciding what he thought. She'd just watch, and see the results.

 

"So, is that what you brought yourself all the way out here for, too? To pick a fight with the princesses?" As she stared at him, she couldn't but wonder exactly what he was thinking. Was he...

A small noise like the sound of an explosion caught her ears, and she turned towards the door.

 

"Did anypony hear fireworks, or was that just me?"

 

 

-------

 

Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon heard Ice Blizzard at the same time, and they came to a stop, winding up side by side with each other.

 

"Oh, sorry." Diamond Tiara gave a wide, unapologetic smile, while Silver Spoon took the less kind route. "Did you want something?" she asked with irritation. Moments later, an explosion shook the air, slightly rattling the storage room where the two were at, and Ice Blizzard was once again ignored.

"Did you catch that?"
"It sounded like-"
"An explosion?"

The two completely ignored the fact they just finished each others sentences, and stood around nervously, one cautious but uncertain and a little scared, the other not sure checking it out was worth walking out in the storm and getting dirty again.

Sitting in the Hall, watching Night Tracer from afar and observing all of the comings and goings happening around the room, Celestia absent-mindedly picked up her drink and sipped it. She was contemplating going out and actually meeting one of her subjects, when the sound of an explosion rocked the air around them. Celestia grew immediately tense, and her eyes slitted in confusion. There were no fireworks set for today, which could only mean...

 

Her eyes grew wide with horror then, and she took off, heading for the door and leaving a heavy breeze in her wake As she got outside, she immediately shot up for higher ground, following the smoke and hoping that her worst fears hadn't come true...

@, @@The Down Trotten,

Electron was enjoying himself until the explosion was heard. It sounded exciting, yet questionable at the same time. "Yeah...I heard it too. Could be some dumb foals playing a prank. Or it could be serious. I don't know, nor do I care. What do you guys think?"

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

Ice heard the explosion as well, and could sense concern within the two fillies in the room. "Hold on." He immediately reacted, and with a dash of blue, Ice was almost instantly outside the storage room, and in the rain. As he looked around, he noticed a bright light in the distance...it looked like fire! "Oh no! That could mean anything from a bomb to a lightning strike. Either way, it's worth investigating."

 

He ran back in with a tough decision. Either leave them both alone, or take them with him. Neither sounded good, so he told them what happened, "I think that explosion may have caused a fire. It seems small though, and it's raining so I wouldn't worry."

 

Outside, it seemed as though the storm was slaking up. Perfect opportunity for the fillies to return home, "The rain outside seems to be lightening. If you girls wanna head home, now's the time."

[Unicorncob 5,681]

Axton chuckled. This was indeed the Soulhunter's Curse at work. He decided to make a snide comment, "I would show you more of my special techniques...but you're not ready yet...."

 

From there, he went all out, slashing his scythe at the mare. He was out to prove himself that night.

 

Jade scoffed, curling her upper lip at the comment. "How do you know I'm not ready? We haven't even shared pleasantries yet."

 

As his slashes intensified, so did hers. His scythe met her sword, sparks and loud clangs of steel ringing out with each strike.

 

He can match me blow for blow, she thought mid-attack, I need to see what else he can do.

@,@,

 

"Well actually no, I had only heard rumors and was curious to see if they were true. But there were many other things that drew me to this place, if nothing else the sheer amount of ponies here-" he was interrupted, rather frustratingly by the sound and upon his two companions speculation stood up 

 

"I wouldn't think its fireworks, with the rain and all, and I don't think there's any fights occurring so it couldn't be from that... The logical conclusion would be an unplanned explosion... Which could mean injured and worse. Well, call me Rash, but I'm going to investigate." 

 

He was about to run back out when he turned around "Feel free to follow, it could be just another fool's errand, but the question is, are you willing to risk it being so?"

@@Unicorncob, 

 

The rain was one thing, but flying at night was another "How am I suppose to see in these conditions!" he gripped, of course there was no answer and of course he knew it was part of his job. He just couldn't help but cringe at the inevitable

 

"Well I'll be shot down, there she is." his tired eyes spotted the city of Bangcolt, and more importantly it meant that he could rest soon. 

 

Preparing to land on the main street, taking care to slow down considerably before even attempting the feet he was surprised that he was about to complete a trip without an accident. He thought to soon. 

 

There was a flash of light and a deafening explosion. The surprise alone would have unsettled the best flyer, but Crash the results were traumatic. It was as if his wings had a wind of there and they just decided to stop working . Plummeting out of the sky, he tried to control his landing but it was a fruitless effort. 

 

He couldn't see anyway, and this point he just hoped that he didn't break anything to expensive. The sound of glass breaking and feeling his body bounce onto hard wood floor was not a promising sign, and as he finally tumbled to a stop, letters settling around, and what was this he tasted, muffins?...

The crash landing through the window had stirred somepony upstairs, who had come bounding down to see what the commotion was about.

"Oh my gosh!" A mare's voice exclaimed at the sight of the collapsed pegasus, "Are you okay?! Here, lemme help you up!"

 

A pegasus mare, grey coated and sporting a yellow mane and tail, helped the stallion up to his hooves. The first thing he'd likely notice was that her eyes were...peculiarly misplaced, in a rather cute or comical fashion. Despite that, the look of concern was still there.

@@Unicorncob,

 

He held his head and looked at her with one eye, the other clenched shut in pain. "...I don't know...I've had some bad one's but none of them have messed up my eye site..." he tried opening up his other eye and focusing on the mare, yet she her eyes wouldn't straighten out, had he damaged himself that bad? 

 

Trying to take the possibility in he sat down "...Oh gez...look at this mess..." was all he could do to sum up the entire situation

The mare, walleyed as she was, kept her concerned look on the stallion. "Oh gosh, is your eye okay? Maybe we should get you to the hospital?"

 

She looked around at the shattered glass and toppled muffins, and shrugged.

"Don't worry about that, I can get that fixed," She chirped, grinning innocently.

@@Unicorncob,

 

Still dazed he slowly got himself up "No this won't do at all." he stumbled about for a bit till he found a broom and began to sweep up the glass. 

 

"I'm terribly sorry, I'll have this cleaned up and fixed right away... um how much are those muffins?" he still though he was seeing funny, her eyes never wanted to align themselves but considering everything else seemed fine he figured he could get started on fixing what he broke

The mare blinked confusedly, wondering why this stallion was trying to clean up her shop after he'd just crashed and injured himself.

"Don't worry, I can do that!" She insisted, taking the broom from him, "And don't worry about the muffins, I can always make more!"

"But...but, you got to let me pay for the damages in some way. I crashed into your house, uninvited and I ruined some of your inventory. I need to make it up some how." Most ponies were generally nice but he hadn't met some one who didn't seem to care about such an accident. 

 

That or he had passed out and this was a dream.

The mare blinked, each one sending her eyes in a different direction, as she began to think.

"Well, it'll cost me a bit to fix that window...oh, I could use some help around the shop! Cleaning, deliveries, all that stuff!"

 

She put on a meek, pink-cheeked grin as she added, "I hope you're better with directions than I am, though..."

He took his mailcolts hat and scratched his head. "I'm pretty good with directions, but getting there in one piece... I don't know, hows your flying?" he didn't mid the prospect of having to work for the mare, she was nice enough. Besides all of his mail for Bangcolt anyway he could deliver it in his free time

"Oh, I know what you mean," The mare chuckled shyly, rubbing the back of her head, "I'm a bit of a butterhooves myself. I deliver mail back in Ponyville, but they have somepony standing in for me while I'm here!"

 

"My flying is alright," She explained, grinning sheepishly, "It's, uh, directions I have problems with..."

"Well I could get you to where you need to go but I should carry the stuff... If you couldn't tell I have a hard time staying in the air." he pointed to the broken window "And I wouldn't want to ruin your reputation." he sighed 

 

"But your a mailmare too?... I mean I guess I'd be considered a mail colt, but same difference. Nice to meet another one of the profession. Oh My name is Crash. And your new employee I guess"

"Oh yeah, I am!" She squeaked, smiling proudly, "I'm Ditzy Doo, but some ponies call me Derpy Hooves. You can kinda guess why, heheh..."

[The Down Trotten 300]

 

 

You can kinda guess why, heheh..."

 

He looked at her confused, still under the impression that his head was a bit off "No I have no idea why,... Which would you prefer to be called?" he still couldn't fathom why any one would call her Derpy, seemed rather mean.

 

Feeling better now he began to pick up the muffins he had scattered all over the place

Axton was getting a bit fed up with the lack of excitement within the fight. He wanted to shake things up somehow. "She'll never see it coming. Two ways!"

 

Without hesitation, Axton stepped back, and chucked the head of the scythe into the air above Jade's head, and charged at her with his spear. She could either avoid the scythe blades when they come down, or avoid Axton's charge...

@,

 

"Strange? Here? Oh heavens no, it's a normal town here... or so far. When I lived n Ponyville I saw many different abnormal creatures, like, a Beebear, A manticore, and you'll like this last one, or  you might. They're these tiny little wondeful, magnificent creatures called the Breezies; have you ever heard of them?" 

[J.R. 3,183]

@,

Kevin was about to say something else, but something akin to an explosion interrupted his speech, "Did you hear that?" he asked Fluttershy. He looked outside to see a burning building, "I knew it! Idiots don't pay enough bucking attention around here. I'm leaving.."

 

He prepared to leave before saying to Fluttershy, "Sorry Shy. But there has been an emergency. I hope to see you later...." he then slowly walked out, after having left the money to pay for their food.

Ditzy smiled at Crash. "Anything is fine, I'm used to it."

She knelt down and started helping him pick the muffins off the floor.

 

"I'll need to throw these out," She explained, "Nopony's gonna want a floor muffin, not even me!"

 

Axton was getting a bit fed up with the lack of excitement within the fight. He wanted to shake things up somehow. "She'll never see it coming. Two ways!"

 

Without hesitation, Axton stepped back, and chucked the head of the scythe into the air above Jade's head, and charged at her with his spear. She could either avoid the scythe blades when they come down, or avoid Axton's charge...

 

Jade stepped back the instant her opponent did, stretching out her neck and preparing for his attack.

She watched as the scythe blade and spear came at her, and she had a split second to act. Avoid the spear, or the scythes.

 

...perhaps an Option C?

 

She sped forward toward the spear, and attempted a spin to just narrowly avoid it. If it worked, she could kick him into the scythes.

A bit overkill, but it may impress him a bit.

[The Down Trotten 300]

 

 

Ditzy smiled at Crash. "Anything is fine, I'm used to it."

 

"you know, you wouldn't happen to be related to Daring Do would you?" he looked at one of the muffins and shruged and ate it. No point letting it go to waste  

 

"I really should thank you by the way, it's not often that ponies are so forgiving about someone crashing into their house."

Axton had no other plans with this attack. He was headed straight in, no holding back. "Foolish mare..." he was very confident with this attack. If this didn't work, nothing would.

 

The triple scythe began to fall back down from the air, preparing to hit its mark...

"Oh, I wish," Ditzy giggled, blushing sweetly, "I'd have much better navigating if I had a cutie mark like that. But I have my bubbles." She added, pointing to her flank.

 

"Oh, it's no trouble!" She insisted, smiling warmly, "I wouldn't mind some company to help me pay for it too!"

With a sudden jerk, Jade tilted herself, running her hooves along the spear. If this worked, she could dodge the attack, or at least take him with her.

Axton's attack was just about to hit home, "HAHA!" When suddenly, he saw a bright flare in the distance, as if something was on fire. He stopped his attack with his magic, "catching" the scythe to keep it from hitting the either of them. As well as retracting his spear into safety mode to avoid harm.

 

He also stopped running and bumped into Jade at the end, "Woah! Stop! I think I saw something...looks like a building on fire..."

"Oh, I wish," Ditzy giggled, blushing sweetly, "I'd have much better navigating if I had a cutie mark like that. But I have my bubbles." She added, pointing to her flank.   "Oh, it's no trouble!" She insisted, smiling warmly, "I wouldn't mind some company to help me pay for it too!"

 

"I would be happy to be that company, and please you must allow me to pay for it." he smiled picking up the last muffin

 

"And don't feel bad about your cutie mark. Look at mine." points to the dust cloud "I have no idea what that's suppose to mean..." he sighed and unslung his messenger bag "Do you have any idea where I could spend the night Ditzy?"
