Awilix moved in back of the group until the night started to take over the day.And as night comed Awilix lowered her head in fear,and moved litle closer to group-closer to Helvard as he was the onli one she truely trusted here.She tryed to move fest but did not whant to show to others thet she is afraid.And as she heard they got choise she almost yelled "Inn!We should go to the Inn!."And then she realaised thet her voice was stronger then usual,and so she quick tryed to contineu calmer and act like she did not yelled "I think we will have more sleep in inn on this beautifull...night."

Crash fluttered above them feeling rather awkward, he had no clue as to why he was tagging along with this interesting party. Interesting, ha, that's one way of putting it, I'm most likely going to get myself killed if I hang around these blokes or too long...

 

He shook his head and stuttered in the sky. regaining himself he got nervous as it got dark "You know she does have a point, why don't we stay at an inn? I mean its not like anyone of us has camping equiment right?"

Crescendo watched as some of the group members were starting to get paranoid of the forest. "I have a shed in the forest were i keep my training equipment, so some of you can sleep there if you like" Said Crescendo. Me and the big guy can sleep outside if there isn't enough space" Said Crescendo with a nod towards Helvard.

[Pucksterv 4,508]

Aurai frozen for a moment at the thought of staying at stranger's shed in the middle of the most dangerous forest of Equestria. "I still think the inn sounds better..." She said softly. "And maybe instead of talking about it, we could actually start looking for an inn. Because my legs are getting tired of standing here in the cold."

[Unicorncob 5,694]

Helvard listened to all the options given by the group, and put them in mind. Crash and Aurai both wanted to stay at an inn, but Crescendo insisted he had a shed in the forest. Though, given what he had heard about the place, it was hard to believe.

 

"Sleeping outside in such a place does not sound that favourable," he admitted, and looked down to Aurai with a smile, "Perhaps we could indeed look for an inn to stay at, yes?"

 

He turned his look to Aria, who had been quiet. "What do you suggest?" He asked, wanting everypony to have a say.

[-Octavia- 1,176]

"Ha! Shut ourselves away from such ethereal beauty?" Aria scoffed. She was unaccostumed to the rural landscape, but already had she determined the night was far more beautiful here than in Manehattan. Each point of light in the sky seemed to represent a hope, a dream, a wish. There were thousands of them in which one might lose themselves, the mind wandering through infinite space. On the ground, the darkness pressed upon her with a haunting beauty, almost tangible, the unknown lending itself to the wildest of imaginations. Why the others seemed so concerned, she had not a clue, and it was grudgingly that she consented to staying in the inn.

 

"Fine, but there had best be a balcony, and I'm calling it!"

[Fallen Valkyrie 525]

Awilix got scared as there were solid chance thet they had to spend the night in open,where monster can easly get to them."We must go to the inn..." Awilix started,she know this could posibly be there lest chance to go to the inn,she looked down at ground and she seen her amulet and got idea.She raised her heand and contineued "...this amulet must be protected.And to do so we MUST go to the inn." Awilix got litle closer to the onli pony she trusted-Helvard.She still taked care not to get too close to make him fell un conftrable.

[Unicorncob 5,694]

Helvard listened to the group's decision, and it seemed almost unanimous.

"It seems it has been decided," He nodded, looking amongst the group, "We will return to town and find a place to spend the night."

 

He raised an eyebrow at Aria, wondering why in the world she'd want a balcony of all things.

He had noticed Awilix edging close to him, looking fearful. He gave her a smile, as if to tell her that it was okay to get close to him.

 

"Aye, Awilix raises a good point," he continued, "the amulet will be better protected indoors. Besides, the morning will provide better light, and we will have more energy after a night's sleep."

 

He began stomping away from the dark forest, and toward the town. "I trust everypony can afford their own room?"

[The Down Trotten 300]

"yeah of course I can afford my own room, why couldn't I? Ha that's ridiculous that you would even suggest that I couldn't" he laughed just a bit too nervously . It wasn't the bits that were the problem, it was his reputation, he had crashed into nearly every inn in Equestria on his mail routes. But there had to be a way to work around that hadn't there?

 

"But more importantly, why are we going into the forest at all again? I may or may not need a recap." he smiled weakly trying to forget he had passed out from fright. If he was going to travel with these ponies he wasn't going to be useless

Awilix as soon as seen Helvard smaile at her,she quick looked the other way."So doeas anny one know anny inn thet is close?" Awilix then heard Crash ask for mission detals,she looked at him and said not so warm as she think he should already know this "We are here to find another amulet." She then looked away from Crash and looked around too see if she can see anny lights around them.

[Pucksterv 4,508]

"I may know an inn that's just around the corner." Aurai said shyly to Awilix. "I think it's called The Shuteye Sheep if I recall correctly. I've been there before during my travels, they had very nice beds." She said giving a small smile. "That alright to you all?"

[Fallen Valkyrie 525]

"Yes.Yes!" Awilix started quick,she whanted to get some were where she would be safe from darkness of the night fest. "We should start moving,quicker we get there quicker we would be at warm place." Awilix quick looked at evryone in group trying to see if annyone will actuly start moving-for a moment there Awilix forgot onli Aurai knowed were is thet Inn.

"I may know an inn that's just around the corner." Aurai said shyly to Awilix. "I think it's called The Shuteye Sheep if I recall correctly. I've been there before during my travels, they had very nice beds." She said giving a small smile. "That alright to you all?"

 

"Ah, I recall that inn myself," Helvard responded, smiling fondly to the smaller griffon, "I have stayed there before myself, their beds are indeed comfortable...if a bit small." He chuckled softly.

 

He gave a single nod. "Aye, that will do me just fine. However, I fear I do not remember the way, since I have not been to Ponyville in some time. Perhaps you remember, friend?"

[Pucksterv 4,508]

"As I said, I think it's just around the corner. It's pretty cheap since it's so close to Everfree but no need to worry about that." Aurai said with a confident smile. "Just follow me I guess... I mean if you want... I'm not much of a leader but you can follow me if you want since I'm the only one who knows where the inn is and now I'm rambling again... sorry." She said a bit nervous. She quickly started walking into the direction of the inn.

Crescendo shrugged. "An inn it is." Said Crescendo and followed the others. He didn't say anything throughout the walk. He was thinking. In fact he was so focused on thinking that he almost rammed in to the shy griffon leading them. He went behind everyone, so that he would ram into Helvard instead.

[Fallen Valkyrie 525]

Awilix looked at Aurai and then back at group.She made couple of week hoofe steps it to the dark way Aurai was heading.Awilix opened her mouth to say something,but quick closed them,as she whanted to think about what she whant to say frst-because she did not whant to looked scared.SHe quick tok a big breath and quick said "Could we light up some sort of torch?To ligh our way to the Inn?"

Helvard perked up with surprise, feeling something bump into his hind leg. He craned his neck around and blinked down at Crescendo.

"Everything alright?" He asked the unicorn, cocking his head with a smile.

"I am afraid I have no torch," He admitted, shaking his head toward Awilix, "Perhaps one of our unicorn friends knows some kind of light spell?"

"I am afraid I have no torch," He admitted, shaking his head toward Awilix, "Perhaps one of our unicorn friends knows some kind of light spell?"

 

Crescendo was snapped out of his thought when he bumped into Helvard. "Nothings wrong. Just doing some deep thinking which sometimes leads me to zoning out, my bad" Said Crescendo sheepishly. He then looked at Awilix "I can create some light" Said Crescendo and sparked his horn with energy. "I don't know any light spells, so i hope this wil do" Said Crescendo with an apologetic smile

[Fallen Valkyrie 525]

Awilix almost smailed back at Crescendo as he made a litle spark of ligh and she thinked 'This one could be usefull,I should try keep him close.' She made a couple of quick and week hoove steps towered the Crescendo and quick said so thet situation dont be too much embarrassing - grown pony afreaid of darknes. "I belive amulet must be at light at all time,as we can keep it much beter eye on it this way."

[Pucksterv 4,508]

Aurai lead the group towards the inn quietly. It was indeed dark and eventhough Crescendo had created some sort of light source, she still could not see where she was going. She walked carefully, afraid of being clumsy and fall again. A small light flickered from a torch outside a building. The door flew open, chatter and music coming from the inside. A drunken pony walked outside on the porch, stumbling over his own hooves. He gave a hurling sound and then walked off shaking.

 

"Here we are then, Shuteye sheep."

[-Octavia- 1,176]

Aria's immediate thought was that this inn did not have balconies. Even if it had, she realized, they would most certainly be dilapidated, judging by the building itself. Charming, she added upon spotting the inebriated stallion politely disposing his waste outside of the inn. "Well, shall we mingle with the uncouth patrons now or later?"

Awilix rushed quick in next to the others,she aimed for fire place and got there fest. 'Thank godess' She thinked as her eyes quick got used to bright light "So who will be so kaind to buy this litle and week pony a room." Awilix started talking to the rest of the ground "I have no use for a money,so I dont have anny with my at a moment."

[Love Doctor Blaze 536]

Crescendo shrugged. "Sure, i have some extra money on me" Said Crescendo with a kind smile. He pulled out a bag of bits. "This should be enough for two rooms" He looked at the other members of the group, or more specifically the shy griffon. "Does this inn really have space for everyone?" Asked Crescendo politely. Hoping that he wouldn't come off rude

"They have a few rooms yes but it really depends on how many ponies there are already staying. If so, I'm prepared to give up my spot and sleep on the floor... Since I'm already used to doing that." Aurai said, her shyness holding back her voice a bit. "Unless somepony doesn't mind sharing a bed... I mean.. Not in you know.. That kind of way. More like just sharing, just sleeping.. I... I mean.. I'm rambling again and I should shut myself up now." She stood there a little awkward and completely silence.

[Fallen Valkyrie 525]

"Godess will reward you for your actions." Awilix said to Crescendo as she tok the key for her room.And as soon as she had key,she rushed back to the fire,as it was the brightest place in the Inn. "Im a kicker,so I dont belive I will be able to share a room with anny one." Awilix lied there a litle,she sleeped calm but she did not whant anny one in her room.
