private Founding of Equestria (RP thread)

Greylight rolled her eyes at Cumulus.

"I ought to fire him for... something," she muttered. She looked back at Martin.

"Hopefully. Otherwise, you'll be stuck with a 'buddy' who will have to help you get around."

She looked at the shoes closely. To do this, she sat down across from Martin.

"And if they repel clouds, wouldn't you just sort of float above the clouds..?"

She looked back up at him, smiling slightly.

 

"Well I haven't really..." he trailed off as he looked back up at Greylight and saw her smiling face looking back at him. He noticed her beautifully vibrant crimson eyes that he never really paid much attention to before, but now that he was alone, with her, in this small dark room, with a burning out candle, he found himself lost in them "...gotten a chance to try them out... so I'm not... completely.... sure....."

[Literally Snails 2,307]

Surge was over looking the village as the pony folk where weather proofing the town. The last crop had been harvested and put in storage. Also the safe caves were being stocked as well. Everything was going as planed. But there was still one thing troubling his mind. He had not heard from the Unicorns nor had he gotten any report of movement. They had not sent in their last shipment of weapons and medicine either. He was just hoping they were not planing to turn on them as well. I really hope we don't have a war on our hooves. Because if we do we are at a slight disadvantage. Trench! Come here for a sec will ya.

 

"Yessir!" He said quickly as if it were a single word. He made his way back to Surge, making considerably strong strides for a pony who was weighed down by armor and age. He saluted briefly. "You needed to see me, Surge? I have the time for whatever you need. What say you?"

[Nightfall 3,950]

Velnir was searching the floor. One of his vials had dropped out again, and he was silently scolding himself. He finally found it under a rather angry looking brown mare, talking to Surge with a tone that suggested some frustration. Unfortunately, that meant that he was going to half to talk to her. He tapped her on the shoulder, and said, "Excuse me miss, but can you move a little so I can get my vile? I don't really want to look like a perv." He flushed, pointing at the vile underneath her flank.

 

"Well I haven't really..." he trailed off as he looked back up at Greylight and saw her smiling face looking back at him. He noticed her beautifully vibrant crimson eyes that he never really paid much attention to before, but now that he was alone, with her, in this small dark room, with a burning out candle, he found himself lost in them "...gotten a chance to try them out... so I'm not... completely.... sure....."

 

"Hm? Oh, yes, I'm sorry."

Shelby stepped aside, making sure she wasn't stepping on any broken glass (if there was any). It wasn't about her keeping her image, but about pains in the hoof.

"Fair enough. I'll stand by just in case they don't work and I'm put on a sudden rescue mission."

She laughed a bit at her joke, then looked back at martin, smiling a bit more.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

He blushed, saying, "Thanks. My name is Velnir. I, um, deal in herbs. I guess I'll be off then." He started to walk away. Every step away was a small comfort; the longer he stuck around, the longer ponies had to realize he wasn't what they'd consider normal. It was one of the drawbacks to the Everfree home he had.

"Hold it!"

She trotted up beside him.

"You said you worked with herbs, right? Do you grow them yourself, or do you just work with them? And do you make medicine, or poison?"

She stopped and covered her mouth.

"Oops. I'm so sorry. I don't want to intrude on anything. My name is Shelby, and, well... I guess I work on a farm, but everyone is asking if I really do do the work, because they all mention my looks..."

She blushed a bit. What was she saying?

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

He flushed, "I, um, gather my herbs from the Everfree, but there are a few that I grow because of their importance in my medicine. I probably could make poisons. And you look very nice, and your muscles are a testimate to your work," he said, tapping one of her legs, "Your muscle structure is simply slim, fast reaction. Not bulky, power muscles."

[Cherry Blossom 864]

Cherry Blossom went ahead to the Earth Pony kingdom and left Windscar and Splinter behind as they were on the safety their own clouds. She finally made it to Earth Pony airspace after a few hours of constantly flying towards the location. Cherry Blossom looked downed an noticed a lot of defenses set up everywhere.

Lemon Scarlet stretched before she trotted out of the cafe, in the general direction of the center of the main hall. She had heard there was a meeting, probably some sort of top secret thing the higher ranked officials enjoyed so much, but she felt like listening in, in case there was some sort of problem where she could have action, try out her newly honed skills. No point in training if you don't do anything.

 

Last second, however, she decided against it. If she got caught, imagine what would happen to her. It wasn't worth it, but she didn't mind, however, sneaking out and trying to fight herself. She was always a soloist, and everypony else just made her angry. they always told her how she was annoying, and how she should even be there becouse she was a mare.

 

I'll show them, she thought to herself. I'll show them that they're just scared and helpless ponies compared to me. She ventured innocently in the direction of the giant wooden doors. Many ponies walked this path, she wouldn't look suspicious. As she neared those doors, she could already feel the cool breeze, coming in through narrow gaps all over the door. Now, if the Pegasi are to north, and those pesky earth ponies are in the south west. I think the Earth Ponies will be an easier target...

 

She stopped in front of the doors. Maybe she would get a better chance soon, maybe a super important and action packed mission that she would miss. Maybe...no, she had to do this. Chances were she was wrong about all that, or it would have happened earlier. The doors squeaked as she pushed them open, and her wide eyes looked behind her, but nopony was in sight. Okay, let's do this.

((OOC: Time to be fashionably late!))

''Uh oh.. I think she ditched us.'' Splinter said while looking at Windscar. ''Yup. She ditched us.'' Splinter said after a long, silent 20 minutes. ''I really have no idea what to do. I mean, we should probably follow her. But that would just be awkward. Do you wanna play charades with clouds or something? Can you even do that? Honestly, I don't give enough of a hoot to care.'' Splinter said.

[The Razor Wing 879]

"What? Am I just to be forgotten and left lying around like an old toy? Honestly, Surge, I know I am a mare, but that does NOT mean I should be left out of preparations."

She stamped her hoof and snorted, looking at Surge. She wasn't as pissed as she looked, but if she didn't seem too upset, she would be ignored again.

 

Surge looked to the mare...What do you mean forgotten? Last i checked you were given the task of making sure the crop would be spread out evenly. But if you want to be more useful do feel free to help the others....No wait...I have a better idea. I want you and our town botanists to go and find some poison joke plants. They should not have died off yet. It will come in handy if the other breeds try anything.

"Yessir!" He said quickly as if it were a single word. He made his way back to Surge, making considerably strong strides for a pony who was weighed down by armor and age. He saluted briefly. "You needed to see me, Surge? I have the time for whatever you need. What say you?"

 

I want you to send out o scout team to the Unicorn village. It seems things are too quite with them. I want a report on their doings. Understood?

Cherry Blossom went ahead to the Earth Pony kingdom and left Windscar and Splinter behind as they were on the safety their own clouds. She finally made it to Earth Pony airspace after a few hours of constantly flying towards the location. Cherry Blossom looked downed an noticed a lot of defenses set up everywhere.

 

Windscar went her own way as CB went hers. She could see ponies taking crop into the woods and other surrounding areas. WS gets off her cloud and goes down to the trees to see what the EP's were doing.

[null123456 759]

''Okay, then. I guess I'm supposed to go.. This way!'' Splinter said while beginning to go a different way. ''Gee.. I wonder if I can talk to myself.'' Splinter said. Of Course you can! ''What?! Who are you?'' Splinter said while hearing the voice and nearly falling off his cloud. I'm your thoughts, silly! ''Well, that doesn't make any sense. But screw it! I'm Splinter for crying out loud!'' Splinter said to his thoughts.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,802]

Cumulus, Do you want to come with me to keep an eye on the camp. Flame asked Cumulus as he flew out of the cave.

We will take a couple clouds and watch from above. He said, looking at the tower of smoke way of in the distance.

 

(OOC: Sorry I haven't posted, its been a busy day.)

[Opalicious 799]

Easy...peasy, she thought to herself, helplessly traveling through the frigid weather. She knew she should have at least taken some sort of article of clothing that might have given her warmth, but no, she just had to go unprotected. A rock was nearby, a giant one, and she huddled next to it, getting no warmth from the surface, seemingly colder than the air itself. She closed her eyes, and quickly opened them. She was going to have to stay awake and pray that she would be found before anything happened...

 

Well, scratch that, less than ten minutes later, she was laying on the ground, soundlessly asleep. Literally. Not a single sound came from her body, and not even her chest heaved with her breaths, even if she was breathing. Her coat and frozen over completely, and there was no chance of survival. Or was there...well, anyhoof, for now, she was stuck there, next to that rock, and she didn't even know it. At least she hadn't ventured to far from the warm castle, maybe patrol would come and save her. But not everything is positive, anything could happen, really...

[Literally Snails 2,307]

I want you to send out o scout team to the Unicorn village. It seems things are too quite with them. I want a report on their doings. Understood?

 

"We don't have many scouts to spare." Trench said, "We could send our elite, the hard hitters of our early response force are trained for anything, but that would be a gross misallocation of valuable resources."

 

 

Cumulus, Do you want to come with me to keep an eye on the camp. Flame asked Cumulus as he flew out of the cave.

We will take a couple clouds and watch from above. He said, looking at the tower of smoke way of in the distance.

 

"Ay, it seems I get to spend a long time with you, then." said Cumulus, "Lucky me."

[Miss Light Diamond 2,802]

Flame smiled. Im not that bad. You just have to catch me when I have a mug of ale in one hoof and a...... a mug of ale in the other hoof. Now we better get going. Flame flew into the air, hid above a medium sized cloud and start moving towards the camp site, Making sure to fly slowly so he wouldn't give away his position.

[Krystal 1,468]

"Fair enough. I'll stand by just in case they don't work and I'm put on a sudden rescue mission."

She laughed a bit at her joke, then looked back at martin, smiling a bit more.

 

Martin snapped out of his trance "Yeah... yeah that'd be a good idea" he stood up, maybe too quickly, and scratched the back of his head "So, us, I guess we should be going now right?" he blushed a bit as he started to walk out of the room, his new shoes clanking against the stone floor "I'm gonna' have to fix that" he mumbled to himself.

[Cherry Blossom 864]

Cherry Blossom noticed a Unicorn laying next to a rock, but she wasn't sure if she should help. It would risk her mission if she left the cloud. She thought about and a memory flashed through her mind; her mother always told her to help other ponies, despite if they were Earth Ponies or Unicorns. With that, Cherry Blossom started flying down towards Lemon Scarlet. As soon as she got to the Unicorn, she took off her own sweater and put it on Lemon Scarlet. Cherry Blossom felt her coat chill as some wind blew against hit. She also took off her beanie and put it on the unconscious Unicorn, revealing a red bow on Cherry Blossom's mane. Afterwards, she sat next to the pony and curled herself in a ball to stay warm.

Wake up... Waaakee upp... Flame Runner was still under a deep sleep, but a strange voice was calling at him from within his dreams. Everything was white, every surface that surrounded him the same, pale color...

 

Waaakeee uuuuupppp... The voice called again, feminine. Flame swiveled his head, searching his surroundings, but all he saw was white...

 

"I can't find you!" Flame called out, his voice tainted with despair. "I don't know where you are!"

 

In the real world, the Earth Pony turned, his eyes squeezed shut with pain and discomfort, quietly whining as the fire began to grow darker and darker...

[~The Snowy Wolf~ 1,579]

After a couple hours of discussing politics, Vinyl called the meeting to a close and walked out along with everypony else. I need to get some damned tea! There's a cafe down the road, I think I'll stop there. Vinyl then walked down the street to the cafe and ordered some tea with milk. She paid for her tea, sat down at a table by the window, and poured the milk in her tea

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

Allie entered some tea store, smiling under the radiance of the moon, but tired from the night's rituals. She ordered some Jasmine yea and sat down with it. Thinking, she twisted her ribbon around here hoof. She looked at the moon and smiled warmly; it seemed to smile back.

[SilverHeart 741]

Snowy Fields was patrolling the area surrounding the city. Maybe going on patrol after the blood sacrifice wasn't the best idea. It's not like I could just call in sick though...Snowy Fields looked up into the sky to admire the moon. It's a beautiful night tonight-...What's that? His eyes were drawn to a particular black and white figure moving across the sky and descend a short distance away. Was that a Pegasus? Snowy Fields started to jog toward where he thought the Pegasus had descended.

 

After a few minutes of searching Snowy Fields came upon a large rock. It looked like the Pegasus landed somewhere around here...I may be able to track him. He turned his head to his right and saw two ponies laying next to each other. What are they doing out here? They're probably seeing each other and just wanted to get away. I'll tell them to head back to the city. It's not safe for civilians with a Pegasi around.If they fall asleep they'll probably freeze to death. Snowy rolled his eyes as he silently walked towards them.

 

As he got closer he could make out their features. One of them had a red coat and had a black sweater and beanie, the other a white coat and a red ribbon in her mane. He recognized the red pony, she was Lemon Scarlet a new recruit in the military. She always came off as desperate for glory and fame. It looked like they were asleep. Neither was moving too much. Snowy took a closer look at Lemon, Snowys eyes widened as he realized her chest wasn't moving. He put a hoof up against her body. She was still warm, there was still time to save her.

 

Quickly he turned his attention to the other unicorn...no not a unicorn...a pegasus. Snowy looked back to Lemon, even though she was out here laying next to an enemy of the Unicorns he still wanted to save her. He drew his spear and held it to the throat of the white mare. "Get up." he growled.

[The Razor Wing 879]

"We don't have many scouts to spare." Trench said, "We could send our elite, the hard hitters of our early response force are trained for anything, but that would be a gross misallocation of valuable resources."

 

Surge had forgotten they had little scouts. And to send his best fighters out would be a big mistake. This was starting to stress him out. Ahhhhh. Buck thats true. That really chaps my hide. Well it will have to wait then. Sees something fly down to the woods. Oh...so it seem like they have come to us. Trench i want you to watch over the town. Im going to go see what just went into the woods. I have a feeling somepony is in a no fly zone. Runs out of town to the woods.

[Literally Snails 2,307]

"What are you waiting for?" Cumulus asked as they began to slow down. "Hey, I'm following you aren't I?"

 

 

 

Trench saluted Surge and trotted back to his post. He was growing tired of walking around the city, but it beat staring at a map all day like he used to do. He would never miss those days.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,802]

 

If we fly to fast whoever it is that made that camp will know we are not ordinary clouds. Hopefully they will think that the clouds are just storm clouds sent over to the Unicorns or Earth Ponies by us Pagasai. Flame said, flying a little closer to the ground. The commander said we should spy on them... I dont know, we will see how it goes. He said, stopping the cloud just above the camp site a peering down upon a sleeping earth pony.

[Toothless the Night Fury 260]

Flame Runner surfaced from the depths of his dream, gasping, a cold sweat running down his face. Peering over at the fire, it had nearly died down, but a small flame still existed, still keeping a small warmth as the pony was curled up next to it in his sleeping bag.

 

He didn't know why, but something about that dream disturbed him. What was going on there? Why was the only thing I could see was white? Who was calling me, and why did they want me to wake up?

 

A prickly feeling started to rise up his spine, like a spider with it's eight stiff, jagged legs was climbing up his back.

 

Something wasn't right. He just knew it.

 

Flame Runner spotted his weapons lying against a nearby tree, his sword and knives taunting him from a distance. His trusty bow and arrows was in his saddlebag, but would take too long to pull out.

 

He began to count down, his muscles in his legs preparing to make a mad dash toward his only protection, his hooves tensing up with power.

 

3... 2... 1...
