Iron Wing stopped walking and looked at Draco. "Are you trying to give me an order?" she asked him with growing anger in her voice. "I did not ask you to get here, nor to help me, courier! I am a soldier, the guardian of the southern watchtower in ponyville. I won´t follow orders just because i am injured! Now get us through this damn cave, i want to get home as soon as possible!" she snorted. Who does he believe he is? My commander? Surely not! She was a proud and confident guardian, always pushing herself to the limits, following orders without questions. What a soldier would give up just like that because of some injuries? By the tradition of her family and her armor, she would continue walking home, even if it would take hours, days or weeks to get through this cave or forrest!

Draco turned to her "Tell me then is this your first time getting struck by lighting? Well then if it is then I will tell you what has happened your wing will be useless for 2 to 3 weeks. You're lucky to be alive right now with how much armor you have on. The armor acted as an ampliier for the lighting. So tell me Iron do you feel confident that you'll make it just because your in the gaurdian division?" Draco asked "Even the mightiest of commanders were brought down because of the elements and their stubborn additudes," Draco looked into her eyes. "All you have to do is swallow your pride and let me carry you," "That way you can rest while your wound heals,"

Saphina couldn't said a word, she didn't know how  to respond her friends stupidity or loyalty. "He...he waited for ten years...for me?", she thought as she saw Sky put his hoof. he didn't look well.
"Sky...Sky, are you okay?" she said as she stood from her seat and walked to him. she shook Skies shoulder to woke him, but failed. she looked around panicky and trotted upstairs. she found two rooms and one of them looked like Skies room. she went downstairs again and put Sky on her back with her magic. he was very heavy, but Saphina tried her best to take Sky to his room. she stopped in the middle of the stair for a brief rest, but she finally made it.
She put a blanket on him and smiled  "Why are you so stupid Sky?" she whispered as she rubbed the stallions mane softly.

"This is not the first time i got a lightning blast onto my body, but just because you think i have to rest doesn´t mean that i will do so." she grumbled. "There are two things you are forgetting. Number 1.)  I am much too heavy for both of you to carry me with my armor, and number 2.) like Colt said, i won´t take that armor off!" she said in her anger. This little courier thought that he knows everything in the world. She just hated guys like him so she turned directions, showing him her back. "What knows somepony like you about soldiers? You are not within the army nor the guardian division. I won´t let somebody like you judge me..." she said, and walked the way back. "I will find a way back into ponyville, with, or without your help!" she grumbled, leaving the cave and continued on the way she was walking before. She would prove that she could do it her way.

Draco began to knash his teeth and curse in zebracan.  He breathed in and out calming down his breathing. "Stubborn blue pegasus sheesh," Draco rolled his eyes as he followed her. "plus who says I'm judging you I'm being a concerned friend looking out for your well being," Draco said as he felt his anger start to kick in. "Tell me then Iron what would you do if you passed out in the Everfree forrest no one out here for miles to help you," Draco said "What then Iron to the timber wolves you are a snack, to the Ursa minor out there your barely a mouthfull. You maybe in the military but in the end your a stubborn pony but Ill stay with you,"

Colt set a flame between the two ponies, as a camp fire  this was getting just to rough and it had to stop .

 

“That’s it you two we don’t need this right now, making the whole forest to notice us is not the best idea”  he kept an eye on the path they came from.

 

“Here have some of this” he said as he throw some wild green fruits to the ponies, those were some of the stuff he picked up  on the forest before “those are wild melons, some ponies call them golovas this will make this a little more sweet”

 

“If she said she can do it then she can, if she cant then we will see what to do, is no use to fight over things that will not change”

 

“Not please Miss Iron Relax a bit” he said as he show some herbs on his paws, he burned half of them and mix the ashes with the juice of a golova then he placed the mixture on a big tree leaf. “This will help your wing and the leaf will keep infections out”. he stoped for a second to se her right into her eyes.  “But I will not use it on you unless you are OK with it”.

[Feather Gem 967]

"O-okay," Angel said.  "Should we catch the bunny first or find the owner?" If it has an owner.  But it seemed less afraid of me then I thought it would.  It must be used to ponies.  So...it probably does have an owner.  Angel heard another sound of falling plastic from the kitchen.  Oh dear Celestia.

[That One Techpriest You Used To Know 2,286]

Skylight was flying over Ponyville, dealing with the weather. OK... so, today's weather was partly cloudy... so... 3 clouds per 10 square feet... He put the clouds in place, and then...

Look at that... I'm done!

He glanced at his schedule. Nothing else to do...

He glanced at his metallic wing. So... turbocharge, huh? Let's see what it does...

He pulled a string on his wing, and a loud growl came up. A sense of impeding doom came upon him. Oh, no...

ZOOM!

He suddenly started flying so fast, it seemed like his face was going to rip off. "WWAAAaaaAAAaaAAggH!"

Then his wings locked to his side. Oh nononononono!

 

He woke up on top of a blue pony with armor. (@@Iron Wing,) He quickly jumped off. "Sorry..." He glanced at his wing.

It was still locked.

He sighed. "Great." He tried to open his wings, but they wouldn't budge.

[Vedana Purity 221]

Meanwhile in Ponyville Park, Vedana Purity was meditating by himself, smiling warmly as he felt the wind flow through his mane as he breathed in and out slowly. "Today is a good day...Everything is calm and peaceful just the way I like it." The blind unicorn said to himself, as he then decided to lay on the grass and felt the warm sun beating on his yellow coat.

She turned around again because Colt was had set a fire. She looked at him while he was speaking and mixing some herbs together. "Hmm... well, ok. If my wing is better with stuff like that than it is fine... and just call me Iron." she replied to the dragon, sitting down next to the fire. Of course Colt had to put the herbs onto her wing and she had to spread her wing to make this possible. Painfull at it was she spread her left burned wing and tried to stay in position until Colt was done with his medicine stuff. Many feathers of the wing were burned and Iron and it was shivering a bit. On the side under the wing were some other wounds, some burns from the lightning and some holes in the armor that had penetrated her armor.

"Hmm... well, ok. If my wing is better with stuff like that than it is fine... and just call me Iron."

 

"It will not get better, but will do this more bearable for you and it won’t get worse." He took Iron's wing gently with his paw  "This will sting a little" he said as he softly placed over the injuries.

 

Colt whispered into Iron's ear "The wood is cracking…" he paused as the mare shivered "Somepony in town told me yesterday that Zap Apple season was coming" he continued after her shivering stopped  “That’s what been disturbing me since we enter EverFree” he answered her question from before looking into the wound and gently helping her to fold her wing back .

"Hey Colt... is there something on your mind that disturbs you? You can tell me, i will always be honest with you..."

 

 

 

 

"I dont know how much is ahead to reach Ponyville but now is not a good idea to walk by the trees ". he paused as he look into Iron's eyes "But we should take you to care as fast as we can".

 

"It’s you who is under the worst condition, and it’s you who have make the call "  he said staring into the blue pegasus eyes “I’ll keep up until you are safe ok?”

"Zap-Apple? I don´t even know what that is... ouch..." she said, while Colt was folding in her left wing. "Well, perhaps we really should rest a bit and wait until tomorrow. Within this cave we will be safe until then. After we get up tomorrow, we should head back to Ponyville as soon as possible. Perhaps we can fly a bit then... just lets see what the next day is like..." she said and searched a good position to sleep. Laying down she got a bit comfortable and rested by the fire. It was good to feel something warm and she was hoping that nothing got worse within the night.

 

The lynx which was resting on Iron Wings back just got to her head and crawled under it. "You wanna be a pillow little one?" Iron asked the cat. Duran just enjoyed to get some cuddled and smooched, so he granted Iron to use him as a soft pillow. She rested her head in his soft and warm fur and it didn´t take long for her to fall asleep.

[Umbra Thunderwing 82]

Animae padded inexorably towards ponyville, breathing slowly, he often heard that ponies where not so accepting of gryffins, especially after a certain Gilda caused a lot of trouble. 'pull yourself together sir' he thought to himself, as he reached the outskirts of town.

“Sounds good to me” he said as she was laying down in the floor, “Rest well Iron, Draco” he said as he sat down with his back against the cave wall. By there he was able to see the group and the path where they came from.

 

He was uneasy it was a bad season to be in the grasp of Everfree Forest, he extended his “wing-hood” and covered his head, his sight was fixed on the cave path paying attention to the sounds inside the cavernous trail, he got the scent of camphor coming from the remedy on Iron’s injured wing and thought “That would help”.

 

The two ponies were asleep by then it was a very hard day and Colt was glad that both of them were safe, night catch up to them but its threats didn’t as saw his partners in the floor he extended his claw to touch the ground with his palm. Once again his iris glowed with a golden light and under both Pegasus a carpet of crystals extended covering the cold ground below them, the crystal had remnants of his magic that looked like little sparks inside them. “That would help to keep them warm” he thought as the crystal beds were made.

 

He stayed there during the night keeping an eye on the path and sporadically looking at the ponies monitoring Iron Wing’s condition. As the hours of the night went by his thoughts were fixed on the mare, what does she needs to prove, was she his friend even more important does she really trust him, he was confused and worried about her, after all it was just so weird for him that somepony could trust one like him.

Draco awoke slowly with crystals around him he almost have a panic attack "Colt you could have started a fire. Calm down Draco it's okay your not in your parents home burning and trying to get out," Draco said more to himself than anypony else. He looked at Iron then he felt tightness in his chest as he pulled out an inhalor and breathed in his medicine.

"Colt you could have started a fire. Calm down Draco it's okay your not in your parents home burning and trying to get out,"

 

Colt raised his brow and with his paw make a sign of keep it down after all Iron Wing was still asleep and with a calm low voice asked "How can a crystal would start a fire, in a place where there is nothing to burn?" 

 

He pointed to the cave where nothing but stalagmites and wet moss?

 

"Relax and go back to sleep we will need your strength tomorrow "

[dragon4111 914]

"Sorry," Draco said as he cured back up and tried to get back to sleep. He used his delivery bag as a pillow. He hummed a lullabye to himself so that he could sleep. Draco drifted off into a dreamless sleep. He was thankfull for that he always had nightmares always hearing his family's scream as he slept.

Iron Wing was having a deep but troubling dream, as always. Her right wing flapped from time to time and she was talking occasionally ."Hmm... all to battlestations..." she mumbled silently. "... evasive manoevers..." she awoke in the middle of the night as she heard Dracos voice. She looked up for a short time, but then falling asleep right away. Her second dream a better one, dreaming about Ponyville, her new home and the things she wanted to do and her little sister that wanted to visit her in a few weeks. Duran her lynx looked up, and started to lick her left cheek. She started to giggle a bit, but continued sleeping.

Animae walked, just walked, humming. 'Where are they all?' He thought to himself, he was sure that this town would have been brimming with people. Were they, perhaps, avoiding him? He didn't want that, he wanted to make friends. "anyone around?" he called out. He had a British accent with a birdlike undertone.

Speedway wandered into the town, moving levelly, and without flight. He glanced around at Ponyville, marvelling at its simplicity. There were no skyscrapers here, no flashing lights and glaring music. It felt calm, a welcome change from his previous locations. Speedway ambled through the town, taking his time to marvel at the scenery. A griffin walked ahead of him, and he watched it casually, slightly surprised at the sight; he'd had little experience with griffins before. There had been one or two in the older years of flight camp, but he hadn't stayed long enough to get to know them.

 

When the griffin called out, Speedway hesitated before answering, but eventually replied. "Hey. This place seems.. quiet. Is it usually like this?"

[Umbra Thunderwing 82]

Animae's head flicked in his direction, his bright, spotlight-like yellow eyes widened slightly. He turned thoroughly to face him, his tale flicking out, "About bally time someone showed up. In answer to your question, I wouldn't know, I just got here, I haven't got a house here or owt"

Speedway smiled slightly. "So you're a newcomer as well. That makes two of us." he tilted his head a little. "That's quite an accent you have there." Speedway extended a hoof. "My name's Speedway. To be honest, I was just passing through, only I thought I might stay a little while."

[Umbra Thunderwing 82]

He took his hoof in his claw and shook it, looking at him, quietly for a few minutes before opening his beak again. "I am Animae.'tis a pleasure to meet you, pony."  He let his hoof go, still looking into his eyes quizzically. He opened his beak as if to say more but then turned away. 

[Damien Cremin 50]

Speedway nodded, then started to walk, past Animae and along the street. He continued to watch the sky, noting the occasional Pegasus drifting from cloud to cloud. His own wings hung behind him, and he kept them that way. For now at least...

The novelty of peace and quiet was starting to fade a little, and Speedway began to feel out of place, even a little isolated. He was unused to such quiet on a street.

Rain woke up slowly cuddled up to Hunter, he took a deep breath and the sent of his partner filled his nose. She smelled sweet but the smell of perspiration still lingered from last night. He looked at a clock on her wall and saw it was still early but he needed to go to work. He slowly broke the embrace he had on her, she stirred a bit and Rain stopped until he was sure she was still asleep. He got out of her bed and kissed her lightly on the head."Good bye hunter I'll be back later." He whispered to her. He left the house and took to the sky, the small town was still damaged from the storm and he felt a long work day coming. He saw a gryphon and another pegasi talking on the street below him. He circled down to see if they were all right."Hey are you two okay? That storm was crazy yesterday and I'm sorry if anypony in your family was hurt or any property damaged. I'm Rain by the way."  He held his hoof out to whoever would shake it.
