private AES: The Lost City (ended)

[Chaton 3,765]

"Don't underestimate me ship, dear. She has a soul, a spirit as well. Aye, she is very spirited." Caramel chuckled, memories floating by in her head. "Now, I am certainly ready to hit the sea again. Would you be so kind to gather the others?" She said, looking at Scarlett with a smirk. "I need some time alone with her." 

 

"That may be more true than you realise. There is one side effect to my magic, and inanimate object that is loved by multiple ponies and has been within my field of magic for too long might gain life. I mean look at the house, I didn't even mean to enchant half of it. Don't tell the others that."

 

She turned and started to walk out "Just one thing, don't press the big blue button on the console over there" she pointed to the wall of the dock "The red one is the lights, but the blue opens the dock. And if the house is out of sync, if the ship leaves I don't even know what could happen."

[Pucksterv 4,508]

@,

 

Caramel nodded, understanding Scarlett's request. "Do not touch the button. Got it. Easy enough." She said with a smile to herself. She walked past the controls, back on the ship's deck. She looked over her shoulder at the button. "So tempting... no I shouldn't.. don't touch it.. stop it." Caramel walked towards the controls without even knowing she was doing it. Her hoof hovered over the blue button. "Must not give in..."

Her hoof hovered over the blue button. "Must not give in..." 

 

Scarlett suddenly teleported next to Caramel and shouted "Hah! I knew you couldn't resist." You could hear a small amount of clanking as Scarlett disconnected the button on the inside "Though I am surprised that you were actually willing to risk your ship to press a button." She started walking away again and mumbled to herself "maybe I didn't explain it clear enough"

Caramel almost tumbled of her hoofs when Scarlett suddenly teleported next to her. "I wasn't... doing.." She saw the look on Scarlett's face. "Never mind... I shall go back to me ship." She said with a smirk. She whistled a old tune as if nothing had happened. She walked on deck towards the captain quarters. She walked inside. "Maybe it is time for me to finally make this room me own." She mumbled to herself. She grabbed a few empty boxes and got to work.

'Caramel is back. And their is a new room I didn't notice before. I guess reading the magic of this place to see everything at once has problems too.'

 

Wade stood from his meditation possition, got dressed, armed and stepped outside his room. He made his way down the halls and stood at the side of the door to the docks. He was sure he was out of normal view, but he was also sure that Scarlett could see everything inside her home. Or maybe not.

 

'So that's what we will be sailing on? We could do worse. I should inform the others that Caramel is back. Put everyone's mind at ease.'

As Scarlett walked through the door of the docks and passed the hidden pony she said "Hi Wade, make your presence known to Caramel if you go on board." before walking upstairs to the rooms. Pressing her hoof against the wall she activated her houses equivalent of an intercom and said "Caramel is back, we will be leaving within the next day or two. Also, lunch is in 20 minutes."

 

(I don't even know what time it is)

Tyra jumped to attention on the bed upon hearing Scarlett's voice booming through the air. "I AM PANCAKE!" She yelled, disoriented for a second.

 

She blinked and sat down, realising she was still in her 'room'. "Aye, of course...wait, Caramel is back!" She beamed, hopping off the bed and gathering her things before scampering out the door and past the house's owner. "Hi Scarlett!"

 

She burst out of the house and down to the dock, stopping at the...very unique ship there. Wade had been standing there too.

"Greetings, Wade!" She greeted, waving a hoof and grinning at him, "Is this our ship here?"

She burst out of the house and ran to the pier, stopping at the...very unique ship docked there. Wade had been standing there too.

"Greetings, Wade!" She greeted, waving a hoof and grinning at him, "Is this our ship here?"

"Hello Tyra. Yes, I do believe that this is the Ship we will be sailing on. Caramel should be on board if you are looking for her. Although I was told that if you plan to go aboard you should make your presence known. For obvious reasons. Well, you should go and say hello. I wouldn't step hoof on a ship without an invitation from the Captain. Just good etiquette. See you at lunch." He gave a wave of his hoof and walked back towards his room. He had a whole new report that he needed to write up now.

[Chaton 3,765]

Scarlett was walking to the kitchen to start preparing lunch as she saw Wade walking back to his room. She had noticed him writing things down from the houses senses, but she couldn't tell what it was. She figured that unless Wade was secretly a poet or author, he would be writing reports on what was happening. She needed to speak to him so she doubled back and headed towards her room.

Tyra nodded and waved back at Wade. "Very well, I shall see you there!" She sprinted onto the ship and looked around for Caramel.

Upon finding the captain, she squeed and proceeded to pounce her in a glomp, once again.

"I am glad to see you are okay!" She beamed, before allowing the pegasus to get up, "This ship is much different than your old one, yes?"

"Uh..this is still the same ship from last time Tyra.. I have no idea what yer talking about." Caramel said as she got back on her hoofs. She picked up a couple of boxes and looked back at Tyra. "I know ye missed me and everything but next time ye want to speak with me, please knock first. The captain quarters is a private room where the rest of the crew is not allowed. I like to have some privacy left, if ye don't mind." She said with a kind smile as she walked past Tyra with the boxes on her back.

"Um, aye, of course," Tyra nodded, grinning sheepishly at Caramel's request, "I was simply worried for you, and I am happy to see you back."

 

She thought back to the ship she sailed on a few years ago with Caramel, and indeed it was mostly the same, minus the slightly different sails. Where in the world had she gotten that idea?

 

She watched as Caramel began hauling some boxes past her on her back. "Do you require assistance, friend?" She offered, hoping to make amends for her intrusion.

"Ye could help move some of these boxes down to the storage room." Caramel said, pointing at the boxes all around the room. "I'm cleaning up the stuff from the old captain..." She said following by a short silence. "A good capn he was." She mumbled to herself.

 

"After that, you could help me move me stuff from me old room to this one." She said with a smile. "Ye don't have to if its too much."

"Too much?" Tyra scoffed, pushing out her chest and smirking proudly, "Not at all! I would be happy to help!"

 

Smiling, she hoisted a good number of boxes onto her back and balanced them as she trotted out of the room, then down to the storage room to drop them off.

"What was this old captain like?" She asked Caramel, upon facing her during her work.

Caramel followed Tyra down to the storage room and put down her boxes. "He was a great capn... He... He was like a father to me. He and his crew took me in when I was in trouble. A long time ago." She said with a smile. She remembered her old friends, those were always happy memories.

 

"I have a picture of me old crew lying in me room." Caramel said, hinting she would go get it.

"I have a picture of me old crew lying in me room." Caramel said, hinting she would go get it.

 

Tyra nodded as she listened to Caramel, smiling along with her. This captain certainly sounded like a good pony, not like what she had heard of pirates before at all! But then again, Caramel was the nicest, and only, pirate captain she'd ever gotten to know.

 

"Oh, may I see it?" She asked, beaming excitedly.

Caramel walked to her room, her stuff was already in packed up. She opened one of the boxes and took out the picture. It was a old picture, the color had faded a little. She gave the picture to Tyra.

 

On the picture stood 6 ponies and a small mare. The mare standing next to the captain with a smile. The captain had a big black beard and was wearing a blue captains head. He looked very old. The other crewmates were a bit younger. They were smiling as well.

Tyra took a close look at the photo, smiling at how happy the younger Caramel looked standing next to the captain.

"Wow, he looks like one of my uncles!" She commented brightly, "Though, he did not wear such a hat."

 

She turned her smile toward Caramel. "So, this is your family?"

[Child Of Darkness 285]

Wade returned to his room and shut the door behind him. He didn't lock it behind him as he was predicting Scarlett to want to speak to him. Sounds never lie after all. He sat down at his desk, pulled out a large scroll, a quill and some ink, and began to write an update to his reports in Braille.

 

'Location: (Undisclosed) Time: (Undisclosed) Status Updates: All ponies present and accounted for. All appear healthy and no issues seem to have occurred. Pony know as Scarlett does seem to be increasingly inquisitive, but also more trusting of myself. Still holds many secrets, to my knowledge, she seems like just a normal pony. Further investigation into background is required. Transportation to Atlantis is as expected a ship. Name: (Undisclosed). Currently waiting for further developments. Nothing more to report.'

 

"*sigh* I'm going to be in a lot of trouble for withholding so much vital Information."

Just after Wade had finished his report Scarlett knocked on the door before opening it and poking her head through "Hello Wade, what are you doing? Can I come in?" Not waiting for a response she turned her head round the room and saw the style of the room "Nice" she whispered to herself.

When the door knocked Wade gave a tiny smile. His prediction was correct again. He once again covered his eyes with bandages. "Sure. Come inside." He rolled up his scroll and put it inside his cloak, along with cleaning up everything he had on the desk. "So, what did you want to talk with me about?"

He rolled up his scroll and put it inside his cloak, along with cleaning up everything he had on the desk. "So, what did you want to talk with me about?"

Scarlett smiled and said "You know you're not the only observant one. I can guess that you knew I'd come in here to talk with you, and I think you might know what I'm going to ask. Those scrolls you keep writing, I know they're reports but I need to ask you something. Is my name or location of this house anywhere in there?"

Scarlett smiled and said "You know you're not the only observant one. I can guess that you knew I'd come in here to talk with you, and I think you might know what I'm going to ask. Those scrolls you keep writing, I know they're reports but I need to ask you something. Is my name or location of this house anywhere in there?"

Wade smirked and chuckled a little. 'I guess I shouldn't underestimate her abilities.' "I have you listed in the reports as name only. This won't be anything to worry about. As far as my reports say, you're just a perfectly average, normal pony. You capabilities, tech, magic, knowledge and background are not in the reports and shall never be. As for the location of this place, that is also information that I am withholding from my superiors. I need to feed them new information regularly on all those I am around. And I can't alter the information that I have already wrote down. What ever I write on my scroll, instantly appears on another back in Canterlot. I'm keeping as many secrets as I can. If I withhold much more, they'll be after my head. You're just going to have to accept that your name is out. But they will not be able to attach that name to a body, location or anything else. Technically, you still don't exist."

Scarlett, mostly happy with this said "What if they start looking for a Scarlett? A pony who won't exist for years. They'll get suspicious, no? I thank you for withholding any other information. Though I do have one more question, is there anything you're curious about?"

"Countless ponies may have the same name as you. They won't suspect a thing. And trust me, I have my ways of handling them if they start to dig a little too deep. I wouldn't worry about it. And asking if I'm curious about something is like asking if the sea is made of water. It's my job and way of life to question everything I see. To learn about everything is as much detail as I can. Their have been a few things that I have been pondering on for a while now. But the answers will come to me in due time. Why the sudden interest?"
