"I was growing old," he explained. "I couldn't keep up anymore... I needed power," he explained. "The rune tar is extremely potent, but it can take control of you. I managed to set up partitions to keep me from going crazy, yet still allowed me to draw upon its power. In the process, I also managed to purify your heart, which is a plus. But if I go crazy, you have to kill me, first thing. We've seen how bad this can go."

 

He laughed. "I feel great! I'm 20 years younger, literally! This was definitely worth the risk."

[Cherry Blossom 864]

Cherry Blossom fainted and just fell backwards onto the floor. She was shocked that Wits actually ate her heart, with free will, but she was also thankful that he purified it for her. Cherry Blossom was very confused at the moment and the only thing that would keep her in line, was her dreams.

A unicorn with his head covered in rags watched Karasu jump away. "What a fool I've been. I can't believe I let this happen." he muttered to himself. He sounded guilty and the slightest bit afraid.

 

Karasu continued jumping east from rooftop to rooftop until he stopped at an apartment building in the outskirts of town.

Maven blushed harder, looking down and away. "So, private hotel room, and a refrigerator with, " she looked inside, "Crude beverage. A bed, some spare time, and a mare to keep you company. Care to make another exception to your no-drinking rule?" She offered him a bottle.

 

"I, um... I hate to disappoint, but I don't really make exceptions to my no-drinking rule. It exists because I don't like the taste of alcohol."

He looked like he went into deep thought for a moment.

"So I'll let you go on, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to go without it."

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

She shrugged and put the bottles back, sitting on the sofa, "Like I said before; it's an aquired taste. I didn't like it much at first either, but I had to drink at the Orchestra afterparties. Or have a dry throat," she stated. She fiddled with her flute and watched Nightfall.

Once Windward arrived at the abandoned factory he walked up a flight of stairs to the break room. He took off his costume and lay down on a couch. We dont have time to rest Windward. we also don't have any idea where the Stone Of Ventus is. But the mayor does. ok, ok fine... I am not going to wear my costume this time. They thought as Windward put on a trench coat and a hat.

He made sure the hat was concealing his face then he walked back down the stairs out the door and towards the mayors office.

(OOC, I'm making this post under the assumption it's nighttime so correct me if I'm wrong about that.)

Cosmo watched the city with a mixture of pity and disgust. He'd heard rumors of the evils and crime within but hearing isn't the same as seeing them. He'd just arrived and was using one of his more advanced spells, his Shadow clones. He had exactly 13 of them patroling the streets, preventing muggings and assaults wherever they could. He had two versions of the spell, one the required direct control over the clone and gave him immidiate information from what they heard or saw, and he had the version he was using now, one where the clones had a mimic of his mind but had to fuse with Cosmo by touch to transfer what they sensed, it can take awhile, but keeps him from sensing an entire group of perspectives all at once. All but one of his clones had come back, relaying various stories of people they'd helped or crimes they'd prevented, then the last one finally showed up, looking very concerned. When they fused, Cosmo saw a blurred scene of a pony kill two cops then run off to an apartment building relativly close to his current position, he'd didn't know alot, but nothing good came from cop killers, so Cosmo went to find the murderer. He teleported to the building and called over to him, "Excuse me, I could help but notice those cops you killed, care to elaborate on that?" Cosmo asked, appreciating his sense in using the other version of his shadow clones to create a decoy while the real Cosmo was hidden by an invisibility spell a few feet to the right of it.

[Cherry Blossom 864]

Cherry Blossom woke up with a gasp, but she quickly got up and stretched herself. She flew out of the police station and started to patrol the skies of Manehattan. "Well, I'll just go ahead and look around for a bit, but... That hospital, I should see what's happening there." she thought as she changed her course towards the hospital.

[Literally Snails 2,307]

"Cut your shit." Karasu said, "You aren't one of the eight, which means the other six don't mind me killing you. I like that. So why don't you leave? We're trying to get ready for something important, and we don't need weak shits like you making things slower." He was trying his best to ignore the opposition he was getting from the other six personalities.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

Den looked back and saw Cherry flying away. It took him all of two seconds to realize exactly where she was going. Oh chit, "Wits, later we are going to have a talk about your extreme interests in magic, and seemingly ruhless ways to study it," he said, snapping out his wings and flying out after Cherry.

[Cherry Blossom 864]

Cherry Blossom noticed Den flying after her and decided to just slow down. A tear fell from her eye as she began flying back towards Den. As soon as Cherry Blossom was in range, she pulled him into a hug and nuzzled him. "Den, I've changed back!" she smiled at Den as tears ran down her face.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

Den was experienceing the struggle to keep them airborne and hug her at the same time, "I know. I missed you," he said softly. "Why are we going to the hospital, Cherry? There's nothing there but saddness," he stated. He was looking into her eyes while keeping them afloat; an impressive feat of dexterity, strength, and coordination.

[Cherry Blossom 864]

"I just want to go back there, because I can't just leave the place in what it looks like. It's my fault that I went ahead and did those things, but if Wits could regenerate a heart for me, then he might even save the ponies I've killed." Cherry Blossom sobbed and broke away from the hug. She continued to flying back towards the hospital.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

Den sighed and followed silently; At least she isn't trying to shoot, stab, strangle, mangle, or otherwise trying to kill me... It was reletively easy to follow his distraught marefriend after all the things he'd been through recently, but he was in desprate need of a nap, and was beginning to feel like danger was a norm. I guess she needs to see this, but I really, REALLY just wanna go home and take a nap...

[Cherry Blossom 864]

Cherry Blossom flew in front of the hospital and stared at the whole building for a few minutes. She went inside as she saw police lines and blood stains all over the walls. Body bags were everywhere and signs of claw marks and scratches were everywhere as well. "How many days passed since I attacked here?..." Cherry Blossom asked, but she quickly flew up to the nursery part of the hospital.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

He followed, andswering, "About two, maybe one and a half. He landed and slowed, staring at the section of floor where he choked her out. His face was a numb mask, I had to. I owed it to Patches. Even so, I feel like scum. At least she's still alive, right? He sighs, looking at his badge, I used to be so proud of this thing. So very proud. Now all I feel is tired. All the time.

[Cherry Blossom 864]

When she got the nursery, she saw a few nurses and a doctor taking care of the foals. At that moment, she felt so guilty, and she may have also killed their parents. Cherry Blossom just froze their as the medical staff just looked at her, horrified, because she was that monster who attacked the hospital.

[Literally Snails 2,307]

"Den?" Patches called from a second story hospital window. He had been watching the streets when Cherry and Den came by. "Den, is that you? Who's your friend?" He motioned for Den to come up to him. "Come up. I want to talk to someone. It's boring here now that the staff is so small."

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

Den came in and flashed his badge, "No worries, she's not gunna go balistic. This is her sister, Cherry Blossom. Right, Cherry?" He raised an eyebrow and silently begged her to play along. It's not good to tick off doctors, especially when they have access to all sorts of needles and drugs. He heard a familair voice and smiled very faintly, Patches. He tapped Cherry Blossom on the shoulder and gestured to a room, then went to say hello the foal, "Hey Patches, you okay?"

Cherry Blossom started crying again, but the medical staff just went back to taking care of the newborns. She didn't want to play along and she couldn't hide her guilt. "I did this and it's my fault that these foals don't have parents. I killed everypony in the hospital..." her ears drooped and she continued to sob.

[Literally Snails 2,307]

"Better than most of the staff." He said sullenly. "They're letting me out tomorrow, but I don't know where I'll go. Did you hear about what happened here? There was a monster attack. It tried to kill me, but I didn't hide! I saved those foals!" He said this with a sense of pride.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

Den lead her into the room, facehoofing and closing the door. Awsome, now we have a guilty Cherry Blossom and a hospital that knows it. I bet that's half the remaining staff, too. Now what are we going to do if she hurts herself? He sighs as his eyes glow and a endril of his aura enters the lock; simple, but effective. "I remember patches. Because I was the one who strangled it."

Magneus sat silently next to a sleeping colt with a broken leg and some deep gashes in the hospital, he had tricked that colt not too long ago into giving over his 5 year allowance over, and since he did that, his family didn't have the money to help him.

"I'm sorry... I don't know what I was thinking back then... I was an idiot, all I wanted was money... power... now look where its gotten me..." he paused for a moment when the colt stirred, the colt had almost opened his eyes, but he was too sleepy and too hurt to do anything.

"So this is what guilt is like... I never wanted it to end like this, I was only thinking of myself at the time..." he took a deep breath and let it out slowly, these were probably the most emotional times he had ever had.

[Literally Snails 2,307]

"I don't remember that." Patches said, "The last thing I remember was firing... something at the creature. Then everything went black. You did kill it, right? It's not still alive I hope. That would be very bad."

 

 

The unicorn who's head was wrapped in cloth walked into the street and headed for the police station.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

He grit his teeth, Curse my darn honesty, "No Patches, I didn't kill her. She was- is, my marefriend. This is Cherry Blossom, Patches. She was under the influence of a substance knon as Rune Tar, which corrupts the heart." He couldn't meet the foals eyes, I wouldn't feel so ashamed if I hadn't killed his brothers for less of a reason. I feel like a hypocrit.
