private The Other Ponies

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

"I could care less about Hypno, I care more about his evil twin. We Nighthunters have a different name for these two, I don't really care to name them. Hypno, we do praise your actions, but the rough translation for you is not complimentary," he shivers, "Blood Sand, shouldn't have been given to ponies in the first place."

[Chickey 383]

Hypno looked over to Quick "Me and my brother were trying to keep it from the population, obviously, we failed." he said. "By my guess is we will run into him soon." Hypno was rather curious of what Nighthunters called him and his brother.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

He pushed himself out of the tree, "You can't keep something like that secret. There's to many factors; desert life for one thing. Desert ponies, as I'm sure you know, are good at disguising themselves and finding ways to keep cool. Not to mention the talking wildlife, such as the giant scorpians, that roam the place. Anywhere you go, I'll bet something is watching you."

[Chickey 383]

"My brother and i used to love the giant scorpions too" Hypno said with a sigh "But we were perfectly capable of taking care of the temple that held it. Nothing never got in or out for years. That is until my brother took the sand."

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

"That's not the issue. The issue is that your brother used it on himself and survived. Which means basically that all of us together, without the staff, are virtually defenseless. Now, here's where my lore gets fuzzy. Did your staff get broken, or was it just lost?"

 

(I gtg sleep, Hypno, I got a link for you. Send it to you in PM)

[Chickey 383]

"We're not entirely defenseless, My brother is insane, he doesn't know how or when to use his powers, and the sand was like i said, destroyed. Limiting his power, and that's why he is trying to fix it. And he doesn't like to flat out kill ponies, but toy with them. But to answer your question, the staff was broken in a few pieces." Hypno explained to Quick.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

"Could we fix it? It would improve our chances immensely. And we could use it to take down Ice Star too. And then, we could have you either break them again, or guard them. Up to you. It's an idea of what to do next anyway," he says. He frowns, looking concerned, My last artifact search didn't turn out that well. Two dead comrades, who were trained, and amnesia. Awsome.

[Chickey 383]

"I only have the staff of light, and i don't know where the pieces are anymore... scattered out and buried in the desert. While Blood has the staff of death also." He explained to Quick looking like what he was asking was impossible "I don't know if it can be fixed."

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

He chuckled to himself, "Duct-tape and glue make the universe new," he then says louder, "Okay, so what does the staff of Death do? Let's hope it's not some sort of instakill rod. That would seriously suck for the rest of us, with mortal limitations.

"Quick you seem to know a lot about these supernatural things. Do you know any special kinds of magic?" She asked him seeing if she could learn something from Quick.

(OOC Idle chat while Bronynony and Cloud are gone FTW!)

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

"... Personally I cannot use magic. Not without some sort of amulet, and then the magic isn't mine. You could try the Everfree though. There's usually somepony there with a knack for magic and such. Why?" he asks.

[Glaceon 793]

"Oh, I see. I was just hoping I might find out something new about magic. Magic something I enjoy doing and learning about." She replied to Quick.

(OOC Heading to bed night everypony. If anything important happens Ninja is in charge.)

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

"There's magic in the forest, and in life. Some ponies devote their whole lives to the study of it. If you practice, you should feel comfortable almost anywhere, see things others can't, and experience wonders. The best part is, you only have to be able to see magic. Technically, anyone with mp vision can practice it. All you have to do, is pay attention," he grins. That was a lesson taught to me by my dad. You have to learn to not be focused on one thing, but instead focus on the big picture, to see what's around you.

(OOC: KK)

[Chickey 383]

"It's just a magical staff. I have no idea of it's special properties, but it probably has to do with the dead. Other than that he can use it to channel more magic." Hypno explained not really knowing. In all his years guarding it, he had never actually tried to use it.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

He sighs,"No information, less protection." He sits cross legged with his eyes closed and a frown on his face. I think I'll practice my magical awareness now. I call on the spirit of the Earth to show me it's wonders and calm my troubled mind. His frown started to drop of.

(I think I was the one everypony was waiting for, if not. Oh well, time to end this. ))

 

A giant invisible force came upon the skies, slowly it started to crush the tops of skyscrapers. The sound of glass breaking and metal was terrible to anypony close by as the twisted force slowly pushed farther down. Cries of ponies were heard from the forest outside of Fillydelphia.

 

Slowly, the crushing power turn any tower into scrap metal as they started to reach the apartments. Nothing stood a chance as the force obliterated the apartments...

 

As if a god had came down and pressed his hoof on the city. The city was no more. Red and grey was all to be seen from the city. Any cries that were from the city were silence. The only thing that stood tall was one tower....

[Chickey 383]

Blood was looking at the city as it was smashed. After it was done, he started to laugh hysterically as he looked upon the colors. After a few seconds, his laughing came to a abrupt stop as he controlled himself. He noticed the tower in the city that was still there. That must be where this pony i'm looking for is he thought as he walked towards the city with his staff at his side.

[NinjaCPU 270]

((I think you were at the city still on my last post. So, I think you may want to leave the city, just saying.))

 

The tower was quiet, no pony got inside or outside the tower. There was just silence, and peace...

[Samurshy 708]

Blaze felt an immense amount of mp, he knew that the city would soon be no more. He grabbed Daeva and concentrated teleporting them to the outskirts of the city right as it was razed to nothingness. The town was now reduced to nothing more than a glowing red hot crater with a jagged tower smack dab in the middle. Blaze was dizzy, this was the first time he had used teleportation magic since he became injured. He felt faint and fell down for a second, before shaking his head and getting back up. He spread his wings and flew back into the crater, straight towards the tower...

Blood walked into the crumbled city, looking delighted at all the destruction that was littered about. He took it all in like a fresh pie, then continued his slow trot to the tower that was left standing while humming a song.

 

Hypno could feel the city get wrecked, he looked rather sad to see it go so easily, and that they didn't stop it.

[Azura 1,107]

Blaze grabbed her hooves and teleported them out of the city where buildings broke down like a sand castle until nothing except a tower was standing.

 

"Thanks Blaze.." she whispered as she saw Blaze flying towards the tower, she followed him as they headed in the direction of the tower.

 

She caught up with Blaze and asked "Whats in there?" As she tried to focus and see what was inside but it was too far away.

Blood noticed Blaze and Daeva walking towards the tower just as he was. He giggled as he used his magic to channel a dark beam from the staff. He shot it out at Blaze as he laughed.

Carrick, are you still alive or were you destroyed along with this once great city Blaze thought. "I don't know but the runic circle that destroyed the city was formed around that tower there is no doubt about it. I believe that that is where the general is hiding out." Blaze landed about 300 feet from the tower and took in its magnificent size. It was about 3000 feet high and if he had to guess probably 1000 feet around. The entrance was a big arch doorway, probably around the height of 15 ponies standing on top of eachother, it was completely open but no doubt guarded by magical wards. He was about to approach the entrance when he was stopped by a voice.

 

"So," the voice growled "You ignored my advice and instead did the complete opposite of what I told you to do. You do realize that this means I must kill you now."

 

The voice was coming from the entrance. A figure stepped out of the archway, and Blaze knew he had seen this being before, not in real life but from his dream. "Zerrif..." Blaze said. The being was orange with black stripes, it walked on two feet and had a massive executioners sword strapped to his back.

 

"Wait what? I never told you my name, am I already that famous?" Zerrif chuckled but it sounded more along the lines of a growl then laughter "Welp, I guess we should get down to it, I promise to make it as painful as possible. Maybe instead of killing you I will kill your girlfriend over there first, and then kill you..."He contemplated delightfully.

 

Zerrif pulled out his executioners blade and in a flash he was gone, instantly he was in front of Blaze and Daeva with his blade blocking a beam of energy from hitting Daeva and Blaze. "GO AWAY BLOOD! THIS IS MY BATTLE, ICE STAR GAVE THIS TASK TO ME!" Zerrif yelled in the direction of the blast.

 

((Never mind I got this))

Blood stopped laughing "Certainly." He said as he put his Staff back and sat back to watch. He enjoyed watching ponies get beat up, and he already had his money on Zeriff.

Zerrif turned to face Blaze and Daeva once more. "Now where was I?" Zerrif asked rhetorically "Ah yes, I was just about to slaughter your little girlfriend there"

 

Instantly Blazes memories were flooded with the dream he had back on the mountain. Blaze with a wounded wing, Daeva completely chopped in half, Blaze unable to save her. Rage filled Blaze. "YOU THINK I AM JUST GOING TO SIT BACK AND WATCH YOU KILL HER?" Blaze yelled his horn glowing faintly

 

"Pfft, You don't scare me, your mp is so low right now that your aura is not even red anymore, it is more of a dim orange" Zerrif laughed once more "I AM GOING TO THOROUGHLY ENJOY THIS!"

 

Zerrif teleported, and Blaze knew he was about to reappear above Daeva, Blaze panicked and teleported on Daeva's back, guarding it with his own body. He put up a weak ward with the rest of the mp he had left. But it was not enough. Zerrif's executioner sword not only broke through the ward but also bit into the flesh of Blaze's wing. Blaze let out a yelp but stayed where he was, his blood dripping down on Daeva's back.

 

Zerrif jumped backwards landing 10 feet in front of Blaze and Daeva "HAHAHAH" Zerrif laughed maniacally "YOU MANAGED TO SURVIVE A DIRECT CUT FROM MY BLADE" His right hand now covered his right eye as he laughed his wicked laugh "NO ONE EVER SURVIVES A CUT FROM MY BLADE, I WILL BUCKING MURDER YOU" He yelled.
