site event The Running of the Leaves (2024) Race Event!

[Wizard 1,312]

Titanium is stopped in her tracks as a fallen tree narrowly misses hitting her, slamming down directly in front of her face "O-oh... Alright then" She mutters in shock. trembling from the sudden rush of adrenaline and fear for her own life, she turns to see a yellow pegasus calling out to her and the other racers. "Oh... Another animal stampede... Alright then." Titanium murmurs. She walks wobbly up to the yellow pegasus. If anypony is in need of calming, it's probably the one yelling at everyone for help.

Titanium stumbles towards @Fluttershy and reaches a hoof out, placing it onto her shoulder.

"Hey. Stay calm." Titanium stammers, before slumping backwards and falling flat on her back. Little birds circling her head as she succumbs to her daze.

*Anarchylight sees animals running away.
-What happened here?
-Okay, it doesn't matter, we need to calm the animals down.
*Anarchylight tried to calm down a few animals she met along the way. She calmed down the wolves, giraffes and raccoons

(Psst, @ComanderZhabikKlavik rolls aren't added to your total, it's to see how good your next rolls will be afterwards)

Titanium slowly rises as her daze subsumes, she looks around and tries to gather her bearings. She looks over and see's @Nitobit struggling with the bats, rats and cats. She shakes the wooziness from her head and waddles on over. "Having some trouble with your own kind?" She attempts to joke. "I can try to help..."
 

Titanium is able to help soothe the little bats, coaxing them back towards fluttershy. "Guess it makes sense, I seem to have a thing with bats" She states, winking at @Nitobit "Now, for the others..."

Titanium is bitten by the rats "Ow!... Ok so it is just bats then" she giggles, rubbing the bite mark. "Alright, I'm not doing very well here, let's see if I can help with the tree."

Spoiler

Titanium gets a running start and slams into the fallen tree, trying her best to dislodge it.

(Total Tree rolls: 38)

[Shiny Silvermoon]

*After calming Harry the bear and two sloths, Shiny Silvermoon noticed that some participants were trying to move the tree that was blocking the path. She immediately went to help them, since she knew they would need all the help available to move such a massive tree. The mare rolled up her imaginary sleeves, before she began to use her unicorn magic in an attempt to move it out of the way.*
 

1st roll to move the tree : 4

 

*Misfortunately, the tree was way too heavy for a unicorn like Shiny. She was about to give up, when suddenly Harry the bear arrived from behind her and started to lift the trunk with his huge clawed paws and impressive strength.*

"Harry! You've come to help me! That's so sweet!" *Shiny happily said to the bear who just came out from the sleep induced by her.*

 

2nd roll to move the tree : 20

3rd roll to move the tree : 18

Total of the rolls to move the tree : 42

[Nitobit 1,820]

With a tremendous effort (greatly reduced thanks to the strength of the bear), Moonlight helps push the tree out of the way. The bat pony resumes the run, but his hooves hurt after the unsuccessful animal handling attempt.

(OOC: I'm back in the race,) Saturn hopped along after receiving and drinking the poison joke cure from @Ice Princess Silky <3 she sang "Eevee, it's Eevee, the bunny, fox, cat, dog, everyone loves it because its fur is nice and snug, it likes to battle with its fox-y tail, it's even cuter, than a Ninetales!" 

When she happened upon Fluttershy, "Hey there Fluttershy, I noticed your critters got spooked, any way I can bring them back here?" Saturn asked. 

Upon hearing her name, Fluttershy quickly turned her attention over towards the source of the voice. Leading her towards Saturn, who had asked if there was a way that they could help. "Oh, yes! Angel and I are going to try and help calm some of the animals down, but we can't do this alone. If everyone works together, then maybe we and the animals can help push the tree out of the way." Fluttershy responded, watching as everyone went to work with calming the animals around the animal sanctuary.

The yellow pegasus jumped slightly at the touch of her shoulder, before looking to see @WizardTitanium. Hearing the reassurance had allowed any and all worry from within to be quickly dispelled. "Oh, my goodness. Are you okay? I know that you're helping out, but is there anything that I can do to help you?" Fluttershy asked, worried about Titanium's wellbeing upon seeing her slumping backwards.

As more and more of the racer's were helping, Fluttershy couldn't help in smiling, as well as tearing up with pride. Seeing everyone working together and helping each of the animals reminded of her and her friends whenever there was a problem. Just as the animals had begun to calm down, everyone, even some of the animals made their way over towards the tree. "That's it, everypony! Push! Push with all that you've got! I-If that's okay, of course." With the combined effort of every racer and animal, the tree had begun to budge. However, it was still not enough as they needed more strength. Just as Fluttershy was about to grab her friends to help, a sudden roar had erupted from behind the group. Turning towards the source, she smiled as Harry had made his way over to the group. With a strong push, the group had managed to get the tree out of the way. The path finally clear once more, Fluttershy gave the racer's a thankful smile. "It looks like everything is finally under control. Thank you for all of your hard work, everypony. If you hurry, you'll still have time to finish the race. The finish line is not too far away now." Fluttershy explained, taking notice of the log, which was right near a hill that lead to a beaver dam. "if you'll excuse us, Angel, Harry, every creature and I will bring this tree trunk over to the dam. I think the beavers will love some extra wood for their beaver dam in case of an emergency." Fluttershy smiled, waving at the retreating racers. "Good luck and do your best, everypony!"
