Rose smiled softly. Spark was here. Things were going to be okay. 

 

She was starting to get some feeling back in her limbs now. Another good sign.

 

She dipped her head in acknowledgement of Spark's statement. She didn't want to have to describe the experience... And thankfully, Spark did not seem to be pursuing the subject. "Me too," she said quietly.

[Sunbro 4 Lyfe 939]

Spark put his hoof on hers. At the moment he didn't really think Stacy would care much, knowing what has happened. "I dont what made me ask you out you know? i don't know what it was but there is something about you, something about the way you talk. and behave, and think, and even look. Everything about you just seems so... so perfect. And every desision you make. They're always the right ones, as if you always know what to do and when to do it. And i love you for that."

[Marathon 562]

After pulling Scamps in Stacy made her way to check on Star and Somber. On her way over she couldnt help but over hear what Spark said. It wasnt what she meant when she said "Talk to her." She didnt think now was the time to be bringing that up. Right now she didnt need to think about that stuff, and she wanted to tell Spark that but decided it was a bad idea. When she got to star, who was still crying, Stacy sat next to her keeping one ear towards Spark. "Hey Star. You feeling ok?" She asked kindly.

[Undyne 1,483]

Somber was just on the other side of the raft, by himself. Everyone was at their own different ways. Star was crying over on the other side, and before he could check on her, Stacy had gone over and see if she was OK. He only sighed and looked over back at the ocean.

 

The sea... Was the nightmare fuel of his dreams. And of course the only way he had to escape was by sea... Irony, huh? He sighed again, the pain in his body was still intact with all of his muscles. He really wanted to help... But if he did, he would hurt himself....

 

He looked back to the crowd, thinking of how this will be a memory he would never forget.

Spark put his hoof on hers. At the moment he didn't really think Stacy would care much, knowing what has happened. "I dont what made me ask you out you know? i don't know what it was but there is something about you, something about the way you talk. and behave, and think, and even look. Everything about you just seems so... so perfect. And every desision you make. They're always the right ones, as if you always know what to do and when to do it. And i love you for that."

Rose wasn't entirely surprised at what Spark had wanted to discuss. She couldn't help but smile softly, with a bit of a blush. "I'm not perfect. I just see my decisions all the way through, and find a way to make them right, even if they're not." Her ears had finally stopped twitching as the last tree on the island stood no more. The feeling came back to her legs, and she was able to move her hoof, to place it on top of his.

@@Marathon, 

 

Star looked at Stacy and hugged her. "Why did we have to go on the bucking cruise." She said, putting her head on Stacy Shoulder. "The zebras on the island are all probably dead, That forest which is probably thousands of years old has just burned to the ground and all of the other passengers on the ship could be dead...I just want to go home." 

[Marathon 562]

Stacy returned the hug. "I know. Im sorry it had to come down to this. Rose is pretty beat up too, along with everyone else. But were fine and thats all that matters right now. I just wish Spark wouldnt be talking about relationships right now. Its not what she needs right now." Stacy let go of Star and looked her in the eye. "Why dont you go lay with Somber. Im sure he needs you." Stacy gave Star a smile of reasurance. It seemed everyone was in bad condition right now except for her and moonbeam. Giving moral support was hard, especially when her own moral was next to nothing.

[Sunbro 4 Lyfe 939]

Bright Spark felt Elated that this mare could potentially care for him. A first in many years. Yet at the same time, a little worried over how stacy should be feeling. After all, she should have as much a chance as him. But Bright Spark decided to not think much of that subject. "how about we talk about what you would like?"

[Chespin 180]

Firecracker was simply floating on the ocean, on the lifeboat, thinking about everything that had happened. When both him and Moonbeam were lost in the jungle when the group first arrived, he could remember the zebras that surrounding them, and suddenly, some of them were unconscious or gone. He could remember Moonbeam kissing him for the first time, he didn't expect that to happen, but he decided that he was going to love Moonbeam, to make both himself, and her happy. He even remembered when he found out about the tracking chip, the springs, Spark attempting to jump, now leading up to this. His journey had started when he was taken out of his home by the duo... Staletate and Tailgate... he never actually planned to go on the cruise and insisted to himself after he woke up, that it was going to be a normal day. If they hadn't smuggled Firecracker on to the ship, he may had never met Moonbeam in person... and he may had not have a marefriend...

Rose shrugged. "I don't know what to talk about. Besides maybe trying to figure out what happened. Everypony made it, right?" 

 

She still felt a little tired. She didn't want her efforts to have been for naught, and she wouldn't have wanted, couldn't have allowed herself to leave anypony behind.

Giving moral support was hard, especially when her own moral was next to nothing.

"Thank you Stacy." Star tried her best at a smile and then trotted over and lay down next to Somber. "Hey... How are you feeling. I think Moonbeam may have seen a ship off in the distance...We're saved." She said, kissing him on the cheek. *Well... I hope we're saved.* She thought, as she wasn't entirely sure that the ship had seen them.

[Naturematthe 51]

Airy wasn't able to do anything besides helplessly lying on the float and watching Scamps do her best to save everypony while the volcano was blowing out lava and dirt over their heads. He kept an eye on Scamps all the time. He didn't want anything to happen to her because he wouldn't be able to help or rescue her anyhow...

He went through a lot of horrible feelings and fears when Scamps' wing was burnt, when she kept doing her best anyway, when he saw her getting weaker over time...

Scamps... Please be careful... I love you... Why can't I do anything?

[Sunbro 4 Lyfe 939]

Bright Spark done a quick head-count, and came up one short. Going through the names, he realised it was Firecracker. "fire cracker's not here." he turned to Rose. "may I ask a question? How do you see nature? not as in actually, but what do you see it as? What makes you love nature so much?"

[Undyne 1,483]

Somber didn't react to Star's news, as he kept staring at the ocean.

"We-- more or less, I-- can't be saved... The ocean is hell for me... It is literally a giant sea of death... All the times where I had nearly died, had occurred here. That, and a volcano. I'm sick of the ocean..."

"Hey Spark! I'm over here!" Firecracker yelled out by the tied up lifeboat. "Does he think I'm invisible or something..." he thought. "Here, I'll reel myself closer to the boat." he said. Firecracker pulled himself in using the rope until he got to the closest part of the wooden raft.

[Marathon 562]

Stacy looked around to see if there was anything else left. Spark then called out for Firecracker. "Its ok spark. Hes in one of the life boats." She called back still listening to them talk. Stacy noticed that Ariy was looking at Scamps boat. Feeling bad for him Stacy pulled the boat in and lifted him next to Scamps. Without a word she let the boat drift out a little and went to sit in her own corner of the boat. Everyone one was taken care of. Everyone but her...

[Descant 1,898]

"Firecracker's gone?" She looked frightened momentarily, but heard Firecracker's hoarse shout. She laughed. "Looks like we have everypony, Spark."

 

"Nature... There's a beauty in it that can't be captured by art, or machinery. I can't really describe it. It's something that has to be experienced." She smiled at him. "It has so much to teach us, so much to say. All you need to do is listen."

 

"If you like, you can come to my garden sometime. Maybe you'll find some inspiration for a new gadget... or something..."

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

@,

 

"We will be home soon...And you can stay with me if you would like." Star hugged him. "You wont ever have to go near the ocean again." She said. *I wish the ship would get here sooner...I just wanna go home, I wan't to see diamond and drink tea.* She thought, Staring at the big column of a smoke billowing up into the sky.

[Windy Scamper 403]

Scamps could barely move. The flight and crash had taken a lot out of her, as she lay helpless in the lifeboat. Firecracker had done what she had told, and now, everypony was together.

 

Scamps stared ather lifeboat. 'This is awful. I can hear them all, but I can't see them or help them....' she thought.

 

Suddenly, something was dropped into her boat. Scamps rolled herself over to see what it was. A smile lit up her face.

 

"Airy," she croaked.

[Marathon 562]

*She invited him? Why didnt i get invited?* her thoughts were still a jumbled mess and listening to Roses and Sparks conversation wasnt helping. *Im losing. How am i losing? Ive spent the most time with her, told her that i love her...am i really that bad?* her stomach growled and she realized how long its been since she ate. But depression was setting in again and she didnt feel like eating anything. She was to tired, sad, and she just didnt feel like it. She didnt even feel like crying anymore. Letting out a sigh she took off her saddlebag and got out her ocarina. For some reason it felt alien to her, like she wasnt supposed to be able to play it. So instead she stared at it not thinking about anything. She even stopped listening to the conversation. She was alone in her own little world, and she hated it.

[Sunbro 4 Lyfe 939]

Bright Spark could just imagine what Rose was trying to get at. something simple as a forest bieng a sorce of beauty. It made sence, but it didnt seem like his kind of beauty. "i can see where your getting at but to me, it's not just a machine. I see each cog and gear as moving swirls of a brush, Each a different size and speed. Yes everyone had their different opinions of beauty, and i can see yours but if you were to look at everything through my eye, then it becomes all inspiration for a bigger picture.

and i would love to see your garden at some point."

"Thanks...", Somber could only say, as he stared even more at the ocean, hugging Star. As he stared, he saw a fish just above the surface. He squinted a bit to get a better look, as the fish jumped on board, hitting Somber in the face in doing so. He immediately cried out. The pain wasn't gone all the way...

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

Star squeaked when the fish jumped out but managed to pin it to the bottom of the boat. "We can it eat for dinner, Now somepony grab it, This is super groooooosss." She said quickly, trying her best to stop the fish from jumping back into the water. "Someponygrabit,Someponygrabit,Someponygrabit." She muttered.

 

(OOC:Its doing that thing where it says I only have 97 characters when I really have 205. WHY YOU DO DIS.)

[Sunbro 4 Lyfe 939]

Bright Spark couldnt help but turn his head to see what was happening. "EAT, the fish? uhh, we're ponies. were all vegitarian. I dont know about you but im sane enough to NOT eat another living thing." he pick the fish up with magic, and lowerd him into the water. "there we go. just be wary of boats and rafts next time." He let go of the fish before sitting back down with Rose.

Airy wasn't even able to breath for a few seconds when he was dropped into the boat. Scamps was lying in it, weak, but she was alive.

"Scamps... Are... are you okay? I was so worried about you... I..." He couldn't help it. He somehow came closer to Scamps and wrapped his hooves around her neck. He held her in his fore hooves and never wanted to let go. Tears were running down from his closed eyes.

"Scamps... I was so worried... I... I wanted to protect you, but I just can't... I'm so sorry..."
