Princess Celestia has discovered a small island off the coast of Los Pagasus. She has selected a small group of ponies to sail out and explore this new island.

Little do the ponies know that this island is possessed by evil demented creatures that know how to do one thing... Kill.

But the monsters aren't the only things that the ponies have to worry about.

Another group of survivors who have lived on the island for three generations has formed a cult, They search the island for any ponies who may have gotten lost or trapped, then they lead the ponies back to their camp pretending they are trying to help, but they really sacrifice them to the evil monsters of the island.

The expedition crew has been sailing for several days and the island has only just come into sight.

the ship has been anchored and the crew is preparing to go to shore and set up the tents, as the sun began to rise into the sky.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Flame was standing on the deck of the boat lowering the dinghy's into the rough water.

<I cant wait to get to shore, set up my tent, then take a loooooong nap.> He thought, tying the dinghy's to the side of the boat then trotting into his room and stuffing all of his things into a small saddlebag.

Harp who stowed away on the boat was hiding in one of bag department, she was freaking out in the department due to being in small tight space. "CAN SOME PONY GET ME OUT OF HERE"! Harp hoped that some pony heard her , but she also hoped it wasn't the ship captain.

Bio sighed, she'd had been packed and ready to go ashore an hour ago, so with time to kill she decided to go check on Avion.

Approaching his room, she began to smell cider "dammit!" her temper starting to rise, opening the door, there passed on the floor was Avion.

Fighting urge just to jab him with her horn, she called out "WILL SOMEPONY GIVE ME A BUCKING HOOF!"

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Harp was screaming at the top of her lungs."SOME PONY PLEASE GET ME OUT OF HERE"! She hoped that some pony heard her but she didn't know who's bags she was in but she hoped that some pony would at less hear her. she began to kick at the bag from the inside hoping that it would open.

Abandoning her struggle with the drunk stallion, Bio decided it was best to gather the rest of her bags and go wait up on deck.

 

She grabbed her gas mask from her room and slug it around her neck, grumbling to herself as she headed off to the cargo bay.

As she neared, she begun to hear thudding and screaming, thinking somepony may be in trouble, she rushed down below, following the noise, she come across a bag, clearly with somepony inside. With a hiss, her eyes start to glow a bright green, unzipping the bag, and picking up the filly inside, with a obvious tone of anger "your obviously not meant to be here"

Harp saw who opened the bag."I.. know but please don't tell the ship captain". Harp waited for her to reply, but she hoped the mare wouldn't ask any questions. She began to run out of the room really fast she hoped that wouldn't be reported to the captain of the ship.

Star Keeper trusted Celestia, well, mostly. She was sometimes less specific than she could have been. When she had asked, ‘Would you like to go on an expedition?’ he couldn’t have imagined this many days of lying on a stone hard mattress. His back was killing him. Ten years of History and Lore studies to end up on a ship similar in hygiene to a urinal. His sandy blond coat was nearly matted from the amount of filth.

 

This better be all it's cracked up to be. His attitude hadn't exactly improved throughout the trip.

 

 

Star Keeper was disturbed when he heard multiple raised voices echoing down the ship. Reluctantly, he got up from his rock bed and went to go check what was happening. His curiosity was the only thing stronger than his arrogance.

 

It’s probably just another fight. This usually happens with a group of ponies in a small confined ship at sea for days, especially among this eccentric cast of characters.

 

Unhinging the door, Star Keeper brushed his bluish grey mane out of his eyes and walked into the room where the entire ruckus seemed to be coming from. He was met with a strange sight indeed.

 

"Either of you two going to explain what this is about?"

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

On her way out she bumped into some stallion. who was outside, Harp quickly apologize to the stallion in front of her. "I am sorry i wasn't watching where i was going". Harp wasn't use to being at sea but she needed a place to hide from the ship captain. She hoped that the stallion wouldn't question her because she couldn't tell him about her stowing away in the cargo hold.

“No need to explain yourself. Although I am curious as to who you are exactly? You don’t look like a crew member.”

 

Star Keeper examined the mare head to hoof. Her black coat was as sharp as night, her mane was slightly ruffled, yet still had its white sheen. She had an element of beauty to her, not that Star Keeper cared about such traits. He seemed more interested in how she was going to explain herself.

 

“So, who are you now?”

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Harp replied to the stallion."I am Harp , and i am a crew member you just haven't seen me around often". Harp hated lying to a stallion but she wanted to see this Island. She looked up at the stallion she tried to keep herself from blushing in front of him she hoped that she would get to play her harp soon mostly because she was bored.

Flame heard the noises of the ponies from the cargo hold. <What the buck is going on down there ?> He asked himself, trotting into the hall and down the stairs to the cargo hold. "What is going on down he... And who might you be ?" He asked, staring at Harp and trotting down the last couple stairs.

[zDashiez 496]

(lag sorry)

Bio's eyes stopped glowing, as she trotted up behind the little black Pegasus,"oh, and why shouldn't we turn you in? Huh" trying her best to keep the anger out of her voice,"what are you doing here anyway?".

Only now just noticing the light blond stallion "and who are you"

"The leader of the expedition." He said, grinning at Bio. "I have been in my cabin documenting the trip... I haven't really been that social."

He turned his gaze back to Harp. "Well. Who are you and what are you doing on this ship ?" He said, a little more sternly than before.

On the island one pony had been there for years. He was apart of a group that found the island years ago. He was the only survivor from his group. He had made his way back to his camp near shore. Those demons will never get me. All i have to do is make it back to the mainland. And once i tell Celestia whats here she can destroy this hell hole of an island. Hears moans echo through the woods. You will never get me. Im ready for you.

"We don't have time for this charade, and honestly I'm not staying on board to foalsit. Bring her with us for now and we'll deal with it later." Star Keeper was at this point quite flustered, his impatience growing.

 

She appeared quite vulnerable, almost cute in a way. He didn't feel entirely okay dragging a mare onto an uncharted island but when times call for it. Star Keeper tucked in his wings, trying to avoid looking too concerned, and addressed the captain.

 

"Whats say you?"

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

"... She's going to come with us." He said, staring at Harp. "Every pony pack your things, we leave in twenty minutes." Flame said, looking at Bio and Star Keeper.

"Whats your name little filly ? and do you have any belongings that you bought aboard ?" He asked, faintly smiling at Harp.

[The-Master 1,176]

Star Keeper stepped in before the black mare could speak.

 

"Her name is Harp. And don't worry about keeping an eye on her, I'll see to it that she doesn't get in our way. If we just stick to the plan and we'll be out of here soon."

 

He looked back at Harp. The mare still had a fixed blush on her face, but at least she seemed a little more at ease. The other crew members didn't seem to pleased about hauling around extra weight, but what else were they supposed to do? Star Keeper didn't know whether it was out of kindness or pity, but he didn't want to see her come to an ill fate.

[zDashiez 496]

Bio rolled her eyes "wonderful now we have to look after two foals" she looked over the two stallions "will you two, big strong stallions help me move the drunk, oversized pigeon upstairs?"

She went over and grabbed her bags and then trotted up the stairs, giving a cold glance at Harp.

Star Keeper rolled his eyes at the annoyed Bio, leading the Harp back down the hall to the mess room.

 

"I'm sure the Captain would be more than willing to help. Just don't get into any trouble before we set off. Anymore delays and we might as well pack up and leave."

 

He gave a sarcastic smile to the captain, who merely scowled back at him. Star Keeper took the black mare into the hall, turning to face her along the way.

 

"We have twenty minutes, that gives you fifteen to tell me exactly why you're here and how you managed to get aboard."

[zDashiez 496]

Avion begun too stir, "good morning beautiful" looking around his cabin, laying in his bed was Jasmine, a 150kilo crossbow, custom built for him.

 

After cleaning himself off and taking some painkillers for his hangover, he slung Jasmine across his back, adjusted the strap and walked out the door.

Thinking it was probably best to get some coffee in him, he decided to head to the mess hall.

On his way, he heard a conmotion down in the cargo bay, dismissing it as only one of Bio's anger fits, he contiuned on his path, with a slight wobble in his step.

"Must you carry that infernal thing where ever you go?"

 

Star Keeper halted in front of the mess hall when he saw Avion, with his beloved slung over his shoulder. What is with him and that bloody crossbow? Star Keeper beckoned Harp into the hall and towards a chair drawn up to a table. He gave a weary gaze at Avion as he sat across the room throwing back coffee as if it were water. Star Keeper could not help but feel uneasy around him, it was just everything about his look and manner that seemed... off.

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Harp went with star keeper, she didn't understand a thing. she begin to think to herself."Plan? what on earth are they talking about". Harp still had her carry around harp in her carry around bag which was allways around her neck. She begin to speak to star keeper. "I am sorry that i am a burden on you."

[The-Master 1,176]

Star Keeper rested his head in his hooves as he leaned against the table. He was still tired from a restless night with plenty of interruptions. His mood wasn't improved by this fact, and this was plainly shown by his facial expression.

 

"Honestly, just forget it." He looked back up at the black mare. She was looking down at the table, avoiding his gaze. It's then he noticed the small bag strapped around the mares neck. All thoughts of curiosity seemed to shift at once.

 

"What's in the bag?" This sentence seemed to catch her attention, like a dog would perk up on his name being called.

Avion sighed, muttering to himself "yes I know"

Looking back over his shoulder at Star "THIS, infernal thing, happens to have a name, and she'd prefer if you used it" swinging himself around to completely face Star, knocking his third coffee over in the process, "and" stopping mid sentence, finally noticing the little filly, a smirk appearing on his face "whats this? bring your filly to work day?" "you do realize it is gonna be dangerous right?"

[The-Master 1,176]

'That's it.'

 

Star Keeper turned to address the smug looking stallion, a thought creeping into his mind. "Well then, let me know if you need me to hold your hoof if you get too scared."

 

Star Keeper had a satisfied look on his face, but the mare sitting with him seemed to cringe a bit. He simply looked at Avion with a smug grin, earning a foul expression in return.

 

"Now, where was I"
