A few minutes would pass and you'd here something outside opening a door loudly, more like slamming it wide open.

( @Jesse Terrence event.)

A commotion outside can be heard as well. 

Expand  

Blu had ignored the first occurrence, but door slamming and a commotion would be enough for him to be wary. As Starlight had given him more bullets for his pistol, he thought now was as good a time as any to put them to the test.

He loaded a magazine with the new bullets, then loaded it into his pistol. Holding it at the ready with his gloves in his magic, he moved into the hallway to assess the situation.

" Hehe... We did.... But the head mistress fixed it... So thats good... Right?"

Expand  

Fuoco looked deeply annoyed, "You were given a full bag of flutes with the express purpose of breaking them if something went wrong. What if she had been busy and we were then attacked? I'd be out a flute to protect us with. In the future, break your own flutes."

" Well i did nothing wrong! I actually did good by saving white back there! Buuuutt eeeeveryone think its suuuch a cowardly move! Not even a thank you was given to me, Even from the one i saved.... Pshh im headin outside and help the headmistress instead... Maybe she'd understand me and praise me from my heroics than you lot..." Griff leaves out the window and flew off.

Expand  

That settled that, Basher would have a chance to earn Fuoco's forgiveness and trust, while Griff had made it clear that they were only in it for the praise, to act like a hero, rather than be one. They'd likely leave her behind again if it came down to it.

She would stand up. She hadn't been wounded in the fight after all, just exhausted, so resting for several hours was enough for her to get back up. "I should talk to her as well, tell her what I saw and heard. Will she be coming back here?"

-Blu- 

As Blu checked the perimeter he'd see two guards, a hooded pony, which seems to be a mage, And one unconscious Shamrock. He seems to be covered in salt. 

The guards would see Blu.

" Its the colt hero! What great timing. We need your assistance on your friend here!."

The mage would fill you in on the event.

" Young hero, your friend seems to be in a deep slumber. I tried splashing him with water but with no effect. It seems magic is being used on him to remain in the sleeping realm. only magic can wake him up. I would but i  only know water magic.... so thats a no no... i don't know any magic that could shock him out of his sleep though."

@Jesse Terrence 

 - shamrock side of the dream realm.-

The demon got stabbed in the eye.

" You fool.... This won- aaaaarrrrrrgggghhhh!" The demon would release her grasp and burst into nothing.

Shamrock would then be quickly propelled out from the water and into the hoards of beautiful mares wanting a piece of him.

It seems the demon is gone but the dream continues...but it seems to begin to collapse.

The place begins to warp, and the mares slowly approach you. Embracing you to be trapped. He noticed one mare embracing him. It was Lyra, crying.

" Help me..."

The rest cried out as well for salvation as the dream warps into limbo.

Misty would again be flustered and whishes that youd remained rested.

Apple bloom would go near you and assist you at the side.

" You sure you okay sugar cube? No need to rush okay?"

Diamond Tiara would volunteer to find the headmistress instead of Fuoco heading out to find her.

" I'll go and find her. I'll tell her you're awake and wanting to talk to her.

Shed then leave the room if there were nothing else.

Basher would then sit at your side in a fetal position sulking.

It seems she doesn't want to be alone.

" Help me..."

Expand  

"I might, but first, give me your name" Shamrock stated as he looked at all the mares surrounding them. Had they been trapped by the succubus from before? If so, he wasn't capable to free them all by himself just in that moment, or at least to bring them all safe and sound back with him, but bringing a single survivor would prove useful to get some help to free them may they stay trapped. He brought the silver blade close to Lyra, expecting a red glow if she was merely a demon herself. Either way, if she gave her name, he could handle the situation. He sliced his wrist open with the blade, and put a hoof on her forehead. "Your name, right now" he ordered. The blood started to stain the mare's forehead, running down her face. If she was a demon, he could seal her in there just enough to scape back to reality. If she was Lyra, they would stablish a bond and the blade would melt to surround her horn. If it happened to be a demon willing to cooperate, it would be sealed within the blade instead.

Meanwhile, in reality, Shamrock's wrist sliced out of nowhere and blood started to flow out of the wound. The blade was nowhere to be seen.

-dream realm-

".... Lyr...aaa..." She cried out. The rest would cry out their names... It became loud and chaotic.

there was no sign's that she was a demon. But there were signs she made a contract with them....

A dark secret was revealed...

As Shamrock tries to pull out lyra and himself back to the waking realm, he is having a hard time breaking out... It must have been his weakend state. If only an outside source could force wake him up.

 

-waking realm-

shamrock begins to bleed from his wrist without reason. The guards and mage began to panic.

" First aid!" 

" Call for the headmistress!"

" I knew he was trouble!!!"

The mage started slapping Shamrock.

" Wake up! Wake up! Wake uuuuuppp!"

Blu raised an eyebrow and lowered his gun, "I don't know what you expect me to do about it. All I have is telekinesis and some metallurgy. So unless you want me to shoot him I don't think I'll be of much help here."

Misty was quite flustered and ashamed. " Well you see... I actually broke all of it? Hehe... I .... I kinda tripped.... Sorry... The creepy alicorn was scary..."

Expand  

Fuoco sighed, clearly disappointed, "So not only does the bag offer NO protection, the unbreaking enchantment is so weak that they can be broken accidentally? It's a wonder they didn't break just by being jostled on the way here."

She sat back down, "Please tell me that the wooden one wasn't also broken. If it was..."

There was a flash of anger on her face before she shook her head.

"Regardless, bring me my flutes, and don't take them from me in the future."

Fuoco had assumed that, with the presence of the unbreaking enchantment, White's sword would be necessary to break the flutes to summon Starlight. But instead it seemed that Starlight had in fact failed to produce an unbreaking enchantment capable of withstanding even one pony's clumsiness. If her wooden flute had also been broken, that would mean that Starlight had also weakened the unbreaking enchantment on it, as Fuoco had previously used the flute as a blunt weapon without incident, so short of being attacked by something that could drain or break the enchantment, like White's sword, it should withstand almost any attempt to damage it.

If it had been broken, Starlight would receive no forgiveness for her sabotage.

Unfortunately Fuoco did want to be alone, but she would settle for a window to keep a watch outside so she could gather her thoughts on what had happened, and not have to look at the others trying to appease her.

" Oh the signal flutes are easily breakable. The flutes that we have aren't... Sorry i considered all these flutes yours and made a misunderstanding... The original and the none elemental ones are unbreakable." Fuoco pull out the bag and showed the remaining flutes.

Eventually, white would enter the room with food enough to feed an army.

" I hope you all are hungry." He prepared salads, oaths, hays and cereals. 

Light would give some gems to Basher and some Fish to Griff. But alas his friend was not there.

" Where did he ran off to now..."

Applebloom would pat White's back. 

" Don't you worry he just let off some steam and went and find the headmistress. Tiara's out there findin them anyway." Shed then sit down and grab a bit of white's salad sandwich.

" I really like yer cookin! I miss this."

White would thank her in response.

" It does bring back nostalgia of the old days..." White replied.

 

After a few minutes would pass Sdarlight glimmer, Diamond Tiara, and Grievous would enter.

The Head Mistress would greet them.

" Goodmorning everyone. It seems a lot of results and findings were made in just a short day of excursion. We managed to save one pony. And he brings valuable intel for us. It seems the level of infection worsens when time flies. Ive heard you've fought an alicorn type of infected as well? Id like to request a full written report on that. Additionally here."

The headmistresss would give each a red shiny potion. " Seeing that the mission entales more harsh and dangerous journey, we need to make further precautions and actions.

 A small sip can easily cure any illness and a drop on the wounds can heal it within a second." 

The headmistress would approach Fuoco and begins to properly heal you. In a second, all the heavy burden and stress left you body.

" Is there anything you need friend?" Starlight asked.

(Blu)

Blu raised an eyebrow, unimpressed, but shrugged, "Alright, I'll be right back."

He'd go into the room, grab his rifle and a length of extra wire, then head back out to the hallway. Setting up a short distance away he connected the length of wire to the generator, then spun it up to a non-lethal voltage, and used his magic to bring the other end of the wire close enough to Shamrock to make a connection, shocking him with the generated electricity.

If it looked like it was working, he'd charge up another shock, otherwise he would stop.

Fuoco sighed in frustration, rubbing her forehead, "For future reference, the only flutes I consider mine are the one that is a family heirloom, and the silver one that I have used. I'll have nothing to do with any of the other flutes."

Fuoco raised an eyebrow, "I thought supplies were scarce? That we barely had enough to subsist on without resupplying in the towns. Where did all this come from?"

Out of concern for running out of food later, Fuoco would only take the minimum required. The sudden apparent surplus in supplies making her suspicious of the previous information she had been given.

Fuoco was additionally suspicious of this new resource, it seemed like something that they should have started with, given they seemingly had enough to give everyone their own now.

She sighed, but nodded. "I nearly died out there due to a lack of information, coordination, and trust. If I am to continue as a member of this endeavor then those things need to change. Seeing as I am the most experienced in this sort of scenario, by far, I propose that I be made the leader going forward, or at least second in command. Further, I need to be informed of the entire plan, including a map. No more secrets."

- Blu and Shamrock-

The shock instantly wakes Shamrock up.

 The panicked mage was about to hit him with a chair. Luckily he woke up.

The mages knees would collapse as the adrenaline in her bofy leaves.

" I didn't sign up for this insanity...." It seems the mage fainted at where she sits.

While the guards sigh with relief, they quickly make action. " We will report this to the headmistress." One of the guard nods and leaves to head for his new mission.

" Mister Shamrock! How many hooves am i holding!?" The familiar guard spoke.

 Starlight looks at Diamond Tiara.

" Tiara... You take responsibility here. Fuoco i have taken the reports of the others... And truly a shocking event. your request is reasonable... But you should talk to Tiara for that, not me... So i request the rest to leave us.... Only fuoco me and Tiara remain in this room."

The rest would leave and the remaining ponies inside the room took a sit. 

"Now that we are alone is there anything else you ponies want to talk about?" Starlight calmly asked.

Tiara would raise her hoof. " I agree with Fuoco....i...i think i bit more than i can chew..."

Starlight was a bit problemed as she sees how hard this mission for the rest.

"Im stomped...the first week of the mission and we are already having a hard time... I hope the second team is doing well....uuuuuurrrrghhh...." Starlight released some stress and frustration. She sighed.

"The plan? we just find survivors and gain information on our enemies. Stop them, find a cure, find the rest of the alicorns. Return back peace?"

 

 Tiara would give the scroll to Fuoco.

If opened a hologram of the entire world would project out from it.

There shows a line of destination they must travel.

" We travel up north then head east to visit the griffin, dragons and kirins. Bolster our army and fight back. Hopefully. Their flag is still up and waving." Tiara informed her.

Blu rolled his eyes and turned to go back to his room. "Do try and keep it down out here, some of us are trying to sleep."

Unless he was stopped he would go back into his room, remove the extra wire from his gun and store it safely away before trying to get back to sleep.

Fuoco looked disappointed in the map, muttering to herself, "I guess I really am somewhere else..."

She shook off those thoughts and instead turned her attention to the plan. (The directions you gave don't correspond to the locations you indicated. I assume that the specific locations you mentioned OOC take precedence)

"Why such a serpentine route? Besides, unless we can charter a boat or guarantee that that northern bridge is safe we wont be able to make it to the other continent." She pointed out an alternate route. "We're here in the Everfree Forest, right? Why don't we just follow this river to Baltimare, then the shoreline up to Fillydelphia and Manehatten? That lets us check one more city, and maximizes our chances of finding a boat to get across the sea instead of walking all the way north to a bridge that may or may not be serviceable. Plus the river and shoreline will ensure that we don't get lost or turned around, and anyone who gets separated can follow the same path to get back to Ponyville or catch up with us. Plus, if we find a boat in Baltimare we can just sail up to the other cities and save some traveling time."

She looked to the others for their feedback and/or input.

"To be honest, I've got a lot of things going on in my mind right now... If only i could blow them up.... Which i can, but.... Someone out there is stopping me.... Someone out there is stronger than me, i suppose... Everyone... Please take the most safest route you think is possible. There might be a chance that even i can't save any of you."

Fuoco looked deeply appalled by what White told her, her expression grew sorrowful as she thought of what she could say back, to make him understand, but came up short.

Her expression was one of disappointment as she went wherever she could to be alone with her thoughts until Starlight arrived.

As it was just the three of them in the room, Fuoco was a bit confused by Diamond's use of 'Any of you', but shrugged it off. "From what I've seen, most of the creatures in this group would much rather run than fight. Twice in this town alone I was left on my own against the infected because they ran. As we'll be able to travel faster on a boat I think that will suit their predistribution towards fleeing nicer than traveling by land. Further, cutting travel time allows us to not need to rely so much on scavenged supplies as well as be able to transport more than just what we can carry."

She sighed, "I'm not opposed to traveling by land, I just think we should give alternatives their proper consideration. You're right that we may not find a boat."

In regards to Starlight's comments, Fuoco raised an eyebrow, "Who is 'them'? Are you saying you'd prefer to kill all of the infected ponies? Or is there more to this than you've told us? What exactly is out there beyond the infection?"

White would sigh.

" First off all... I don't think of this as pillaging... So you suggest we don't take the food and leave it here to rot, instead of us eating it and the rest of Ponyville?" White wishes to understand Fuoco. But it just left him confused.  He'd still leave some food to Fuoco and leave her alone.

" It seems that we are fighting more than the infection... But the collapse of this world itself...the infection is the least of my worries Fuoco. But the ones pulling the strings of these collapse are. I have no idea how many they are. You actually met 2 of them already. The one who caused the infection. And the one who makes nightmares. 3 separate entities attacked the castle so im assuming more than 5. Again I do not intend to keep these things as a secret to you all. Information is scarce and I don't want to spread chaos."

"Surely four" Shamrock replied in a sarcastic tone. It's not like the guard could raise more than 3 at a time.

With shaky legs he tried to stand up. His sight was blurry and he could hear a buzz on his ears. His nose started to bleed profusely. Most likely his brain had been under too much stress and his blood pressure had spiked. He'd be lucky if he simply shut down for good right there. But luck was something he never had. A strong headache assaulted him and his eyes became sore from any dim light, making him shut them close.

"The agent... the mint mare... she was stuck there" he muttered, fighting back the need of a growl of pain. "Is she ok...?" he asked as he collapsed on his legs. He was gasping for air.

"Are we tired yet?" he'd hear inside his head. It was a familiar voice. This sent a spine chill that shook him to the bone. Out of nowhere he regained enough strength to get up. He started walking, stumbling with each step.

"There were... many mares stuck... in that darned place..." he tried to explain, overcoming the pain that flooded him.

"I need a sugar cube" he requested as he reached for a wall and helped himself to stand up leaning on it. He was trembling.

" Many mares? Agent?" He'd look at blu in confusion. " Im sure the agent is safe and well rested." The guard replied. 

I will grab you something sweet. please stay put so I'll know where to find you." The guard quickly left to grab the items Shamrock requested.

leaving Blu and Shamrock alone in the hall for a while.

" It seems that we are fighting more than the infection... But the collapse of this world itself...the infection is the least of my worries Fuoco. But the ones pulling the strings of these collapse are. I have no idea how many they are. You actually met 2 of them already. The one who caused the infection. And the one who makes nightmares. 3 separate entities attacked the castle so im assuming more than 5. Again I do not intend to keep these things as a secret to you all. Information is scarce and I don't want to spread chaos."

Fuoco nodded, "Thank you for sharing this. That is something I can work with, and be a bit more helpful than if we were just trying to fight an infection. I assume that we're free to attack any of these 'leaders' if we deem it appropriate? I don't mean to assume that we'll be able to defeat them, but like we did with the alicorn here we may be able to at least do some damage and escape. For instance, the alicorn has lost her throat node, and unless she can capture another alicorn to replace it she won't be able to use my magic against me. Now, I'm not saying that I'm willing to put our group in danger, but we can do what we can to weaken them when we can."

She looked back over the map again before closing it up. "Before we get ready to move out, if we could get a cart that would be a big help. I don't know if they were able to salvage one from the town. But having the ability to move supplies and potential wounded other than just on the backs of others would improve our chances of success."

With that said, Fuoco was ready to gather everyone and start preparing to move on. The sooner they left the better their chances were of getting away before the alicorn came back.

 

(Blu)

Blu didn't put much stock in what Shamrock was saying, but he figured that it wouldn't cost him much effort to get Lyra out if she was stuck like Shamrock said. And if she wasn't, then he could get the bed back.

So he would charge up another shock to wake Lyra with, and see what would happen. If she woke up and asked why he had shocked her, he would say: "Shamrock was stuck in a dream out in the hallway, and I had to shock him out of it. He said you might also be stuck so I figured I'd try something."

-Fuoco-

" Then if theres nothing else, I'll be finishing my investigation on the area and leave as well... Take care." The Head mistress bids farewell.

 

Another day came and another adventure arise for Fuoco. New challenge awaits them as they head to their next destination.

White Light was able to find 2 cart wagons for them to use. Apple bloom volunteered to carry the other one.

" Thisa sinch fer me... Hope on in every pony!"

Griff Misty and basher would ride on Apple Blooms cart.

"Teach please tell me when you want to switch out okay?" Basher presented herself.

White Light on the other hand would offer his cart to Fuoco and Diamond Tiara.

" As the headmistress instructed me. I must protect the both of you. Please stay at my cart." 

And so on the group would put some of their gears and supplies and head off 

-Blu-

The shock would jolt Lyra out of the bed.

"Kyaaa!!! Uff!!!" Lyra's head would hit first on the floor.

She cries as the pain was too much.

" What was that for!!!"

Blu would notice a mark on Lyra's forehead burning bright red then vanishing.

" Hasn't anyone thought you that its rude to wake people up in that way?" She continued to cry and protest.

The guard would be back with a jar of honey.

" Ummmm.... This would work right?"

After that a purple Unicorn would come by and greet you. She looked somewhat important as her clothes define her as professional and with stature.

" You must be Shamrock, i am the Headmistress of this School, Starlight Glimmer. It seems you're smack down in the middle of all these mess I've been sensing invading my school. I would like information from you... What is going on?... And why is there salt everywhere?"

The fainted mage would quickly get back up and running and bow down to the headmistress. 

" Headmistress...."

Starlight would raise an i brow towards the mage...

" It seems one of my mage is with you... And it seems she wasn't of any use... Your duty was to protect our guest! Sigh... Nevermind help me with the report instead... Now sir Shamrock i would require info."

The mage was heart brokened and teary eyed. She has disappointed the head mistress.

She sniffles and grabs her quill and paper.

".. yes headmistress....."

The pegasus would take the jar and chug down half its contents. He grimaced as the strong flavor filled up his mouth and the gooey texture ran down his throat. Then, after a moment, he defended the mage for no particular reason.

"She tried to help me up, your highness...?" he wasn't sure if that was the proper etiquete for the moment, but he elaborated. "She had a bad feeling all along, and I kind of tried to hit on her. She's not at fault". There he was again, lying to save somepony else's rump. He didn't really care about the mage, but he simply felt he needed to lend her a hoof, given how upset she looked like.

After taking another sip from the honey jar, he started to elaborate about his encounter with the dream demon. How she held captive several mares in the dream realm. How it seemed Lyra had made a bad deal with the creature and thus was held hostage during her sleep. He went extensively on details and what things seemed to work against her in the dream world, such as factual response and groundedness. What kind of materials worked against her. He also explained about the salt and how it managed to keep the monster at bay.

"And that's all I can recall about my encounter right now, headmistress" Shamrock concluded, the blood from his nose already dried.

(Fuoco)

Fuoco wouldn't disagree with being carted herself, but figured that Grif and Basher would likely do better in the air or on foot than being carried. Still, if Applebloom had no objections, this would work for now.

"Just keep an eye out, we don't want to get ambushed while we travel."

 

(Blu)

Blu didn't react much to Lyra's complaints, "Shamrock was stuck in a dream out in the hallway, and I had to shock him out of it. He said you might also be stuck so I figured I'd try something."

He was a bit more interested in the symbol he had seen on Lyra's forehead. "You had a mark on your forehead too when I woke you up, it was glowing red, but it's gone now. If you want I could draw it for you?"

Blu's glasses had a camera that let the Kernel record what he saw, meaning he could replay the footage of the mark to show Lyra if she were interested.

-Blu-

" NO NO!..." she then covered her forehead.

" I-its nothing... Uhhhhh its just a tattoo i got when i was still young... I did a lot of ummm unwise decisions back then hehehe." She laughed weirdly.  As she explained the situation, she was sweating uncontrollably.

"Ummm it comes on and off sometimes since its uhhhh a magical tattoo i got from this unicorn hehe yeah thats it." She continued to stutter.

" Phew... L-lets get back to sleep okay?..." She said but ended up walking outside the door.

Blu would also notice the pillow was wet. Not sure what caused it. Blu would need to further investigate it if he wants to know.

The other pillow though is still safe from that weird wet substances.

( Blu may initiate to go to sleep or continue to investigate.)

-Fuoco-

Their trip went quiet and calm. The occasional chatter would come and go. But the tension between the group is starting to show.

Griff would try as much as he can to avoid talking to anyone. It seems that Apple bloom is the only one who tries to initiate contact with him. It seems her being his teacher just wouldn't let her stand still and do nothing when one of her previous student is in a predicament.

Diamond Tiara would try and comfort and check on Basher. Basher on the other hand is trying to act the way she was but seeing that she was a cry baby at heart, shes having a hard time to make a cool and silent persona. In a way Tiara is babying Basher, and she can't do much about it.

Misty on the other hand is still a bit tired and would easily doze off from time to time. It seems healing Fuoco took quite a big toll on her. 

While White Light stayed vigilant and alert. Hed always answer to everyones request, except for griff. Their tension increases by the hour, which worries everyone who noticed.

 

The day would end and nightfall would reach. Everyone would prepare for camp and sleep for the night, idle chatter and amusement would be done to relieve stress and worry even for a little.

Mist and Tiara would practice the flute, griff would occasionally join in to strum his lute, while Apple Bloom, Basher, and White would hum along.

Apple bloom would recall her friends as they entertained themselves. " I miss this... Sweetie belle would always sing for us, you(Tiara) would play an instrument, while Scootaloo and i would dance along...sigh... What happened." 

Tiara would pat her in the back and hug her by the shoulder.

"We can still do that. We just gotta find those two and have a good talk is all."

( If no other interactions would be made the night would go by and a new dawn would rise.)

@Jesse Terrence ( i got it right this time XD)

Shamrock 

The mage was quite shocked and heavily blushed.

" Y-you were hitting on me at a time like this!?..." The pony was still blushing and couldn't think of a proper come back for the pervert. She'd just end up looking away, to avoid her blushing face.

Meanwhile the head mistress was a bit confused of the pegasi's action.

" Huh..... O-kay?"

The headmistress attention to the mage was removed thanks to Shamrocks defense for her and the information he gave.

" Thank you Sir Shamrock, although I'd request you don't flirt with anyone of the staff at the moment since we're in a dire situation and requiring everyones out most focus... Although... I have no right to say that....tsk please lessen and choose your time when to do your flirting."  She'd then approach the mage.

" You may continue your duties, and after that, please report to me immediately, your findings... I'll have to investigate our dream invader for the meantime."

The headmistress quickly left the scene with her magic. Teleported to who knows where.

The mage on the other hand would sigh in relief.

She'd try to look at Shamrock a bit bashful and say:" hey... Thank you. If theres anything else you need I'll get it for you." Shed then pat her clothes off of dust. And reach out her hoof to you. " Let me help you to your bed sir Shamrock." 

One of the guards would also assist in caring you, as he could not let the mare do this task alone.

"Petri. You can call me Petri if you want" Shamrock said as he held her hoof. He felt a really soft grip. Lovely, he hadn't given himself time to enjoy the soft touch of a mare in a while. It was always dragging in a hurry, grasping in a dangerous situation. Never on a break. It just felt... nice. Wholesome. Warm. It was good for a change.

Shamrock gave her a tender gaze right into the eyes and a soft, yet tired smile. "I don't think I've heard your name even once" he commented. Not that it really mattered to him. He was just playing along to his own lie. He had to make it look real for the sake of his possible ally. Maybe she could watch over him while he recovered from his exahution.

Blu raised an eyebrow at Lyra's explanation, clearly not buying it. But he shrugged, "Fine, I'll ask Starlight about it then."

Blu didn't think twice about the wet pillow though, simply assuming that it was sweat from whatever nightmare Lyra had been too embarrassed to tell him about. He would take the other pillow though and put it with the rest of his stuff before moving to follow Lyra back out into the hallway. He was suspicious and on guard for anything out of the ordinary.

 

(Fuoco)

Fuoco would stay quiet throughout the traveling, keeping her attention on their surroundings in case she needed to defend them from some danger. She noticed that Griff wasn't earning any favors with White, but that didn't mean that she appreciated White leaving Griff hanging. If this mission had any hope of succeeding, everyone would need to work together. Anyone incapable of getting over their petty grievances would need to go before they got someone killed.

When they were resting she had a very strange look to her as she watched the others play music for pleasure. It was a very foreign concept to her for there to be music without clear purpose, without accompanying a spell.

She'd shake off the feeling eventually, getting used to the idea of being in charge. "Griff, White, come over here." She'd lead them a short distance away from the others to have a bit of privacy, then she'd start. "Are the two of you going to be able to work together?" She pre-empted them with a hoof, "And I don't want to hear a word from either of you about what the other did or didn't do when we were in the last town. I was the one who almost died, so I am the only one with any right to complain about it. Now, if the two of you have some longstanding rivalry, I need to know about it, but if the sour notes between you two is just the most recent events then you two need to get over it."

@Jesse Terrence @Illiad Easle 

The grey pony would blush greatly and quickly retract her hoof.

" Hey! Don't take advantage of me you p-perv...." 

Unknown to Shamrock, Lyra was there watching the scene.

" You done flirting?" She sighed.

Lyra would end up helping him get back up from his feet and casualty tell him,

" thanks.."

The grey pony was a bit confused and shocked at first, but would eventually help shamrock to his bed.

After placing him to his bed Lyra would inform some details to Shamrock.

" Can you please keep this tattoo on my forehead a secret to everyone." She asked Shamrock while staring at the grey pony.

" By the way his name is Shamrock, please stop changing your name." She nonchalantly said.

Shamrock has a high knowledge about demons and he knows that the sign on Lyra's fore head is the sign of the devil... It seems she made a deal with them.

Lyra would then leave the room. Leaving an awkward situation with you and the grey mare who is now staring at you waiting for your excuse.

 

Meanwhile lyra would go back to the room where Blu is and checked first if either Blu is now asleep or is still waiting for her.

Shamrock found Lyra's little scene entertaining and somewhat troublesome, but quickly came to terms with it. She really needed to keep her deal a secret and that would come in handy for Shamrock in the future.

"Yes, my name is, indeed, Shamrock Galore. That's not a secret. The headmaster refered to me by my name, didn't she? Petri is just a nickname a few ones have the privilege to address me by" he started. He sighed and took a moment before continuing. "I was born during a very damp and cold winter week. Where I'm from, it never snows. But sometimes we get long cold soft rains. Ones that can go for weeks" he explained looking out the window with a nostalgic smile. Indeed, the drizzle was something he really enjoyed from Redearth Flats' (his hometown) otherwise dry winters. "The smell of the moisted dirt fills the air then. That thing is called petricor. I love that smell" he added, closing his eyes, trying to recall the sensation of the cold wind and the fresh aroma in his nosetrils. "A few some very important ponies have called me Petricor. Or Petri, for short. I like that nickname better than my regular, boring name" he concluded. He was being honest for a change.

He looked at the mage. Maybe she was jealous at Lyra's sudden act. "Go ahead, you can be angry at me if you like. I haven't done anything really bad. I was stuck with a crazy dream monster there and I thought I could have died. You helped me out from there. I'm just thankful, that's why I told you you could call me Petri" he explained. Maybe Lyra could have ruined his attempt at manipulating the mare's feelings, but he still could befriend her even if that didn't warant him the mage would go the extra mile to help him in a dangerous situation.
