private The S.S. Romantic (RP)

[Windy Scamper 403]

Scamps let a tiny teae slip oit as she went back to the hatch and got another blanket and the survival guide. "Are you hungry? They have some food in the hatch thing. I'm going to see how to find land and such. The sooner we get to land, the sooner we can be rescued."

[Naturematthe 51]

"Hungry... yes, I think I am a little hungry." Airy tried to get up and look what he could eat, but his muscles still were totally powerless.

"I can't move... Help me, please..."

His mind still was affected by the cold, the lack of oxygen he had been through and the shock, so he wasn't really able to give useful answers. And he was so tired... but first he had to eat.

Somber had woken up to one of the greatest smells of his life. Something freshly cooked, like it just came off the oven... What was it? And why was he feeling hot beneath him? He looked down to see that he was under an open fire, and it was HIM that was being cooked.

 

He tried to get away from it, but he now realized that his legs were tied onto a stick. And now, the sights were even weirder...

 

Those tribal ponies he saw weren't even ponies... They were ZEBRAS! A few of them seemed to be hitting some makeshift drums, while a few others were chanting some weird song... More and more were beginning to show, as they all formed two parallel lines, staring to bow. Then, one gigantic zebra emerged from the crowd, wearing some leaf-crown on his head. That must be symbolizing his authority. He walked to the pit, examining Somber carefully before finally speaking.

 

"Give to us your name, black one..."

(OOC: I am going to say we have be drifting around for a couple hours and the sun has come up... If thats not ok than just ignore this post.)

 

After a few hours the sun was peaking over the horizon and Star awoke from a small nap.

Her wing was feeling much better and she wasn't as cold as she was before... Come to think of it... She was feeling rather warm. "Am...Am I dead." Then she remembered what had happened the night before. "Somber... Oh Som... Land ?" She thought, Standing up and looking at a rather large island off in the distance. "Land...Land...LAND." She yelled, pointing at the island.

[Windy Scamper 403]

Scamps tossed Airy a can of....whateve rflavored powder with nutrients she picked up.

 

"So, I found the oars. If you want, I can go ahead and start rowing. The food should give you some energy. Right now, I don't know where we are or how far we are from land....so...I guess I'll just row until we hit something," Scamps said.

 

She grabbe dthe oars and began to paddle through the ocean in hopes of finding land.

Stacy woke up. Apprently she had fallen asleep. She stretched and yawned. "What tht about land?" She asked looking around until she saw a island it looks like. "Rose! Look, land. Stars right theres land!" She said rushing to that side of the boat. "I cant believe it! Were going to live."

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

Morning stars guards returned it seems they have been looking for the royal navy and land. More royal guards came one had a note pad and asked one of the ponies a question."How meany are dead and wounded and how meany did y'all start out with"? The caption kept a stern face but he was happy  to see that some ponies survived .

Airy chewed on the... whatever Scamps had given him, and slowly his muscles regained some power. It still wasn't enough for him to stand up and move (without his disabled hind legs), but at least his mind started to return into normal.

"I want to help you, Scamps... You have done so much to me, and I can't do anything for you." His face got a sad expression.

"I... I don't want to have you do all the work, but... I'm so tired..."

Having said these words, AIry faded out again - but this time he was able to keep breathing and just fell asleep.

[Descant 1,898]

Rose woke, bleary-eyed. "Whaa-?" Her leg was throbbing horribly. She didn't even want to look at it, for fear of seeing the condition it might be in. If she thought she couldn't stand before... 

 

She pulled herself up over the side of the raft. Stacy was right! "Thank Celestia for land! Sweet, sweet land!" She'd be able to treat herself and Star properly with whatever they might find growing on the island. For it was obviously an island.

 

 

(OOC: Sorry for the late reply. I was playing Halo.)

(Occ : you forgot about the guards.) The Royal guards were pulling in the survivors of the s.s romantic, But the caption waited for his answer on how meany were wounded and how meany were dead, he had to get a full guise because Celestia wanted to know if her brother was among the dead.

Rose twinged at the question the guards posed. "Well, out of our original group, those of us who made it onto our raft... We have two injured. One missing. It's possible he made it onto the island, we don't know. And... Prince Morningstar... Didn't make it." At this last note, Rose broke down, sobbing. She took the Star Rose out of her hair, and twirled it in her hooves, letting it calm her. It was his last gift. The only one she would let him make.

[Windy Scamper 403]

Scamps watched as Airy fell asleep again. She was worried that his zoning in and out could br a major problem, and sh felt bad that there was nothing she could do.

 

And then she saw it; a tiny black dot in the distance. Far away, but she knew what she was looking at.

 

"Airy, look! Land!"

[The Original 571]

Arcane had started to cough up water, they ended up ashore on what seemed to be an island, he didn't know if any others had made it, but Marisa was laying next to him. A pony on the raft they traveled on was swearing and throwing a knife around, yelling something about suicide, the knife ended up puncturing a part of our raft and it sunk, Arcane and Marisa had grabbed big plastic air bags from the emergency raft pocket before it sunk, but all the other ponies drowned. Their air bags didn't last long, but at least they got them to the island.

The caption nod his head."Alright then , you will take his body back to canterlot and his personal possessions now belong to you other wise celestia as ordered us to burn them all".  The caption handed her his orders from the princess from confirm that she did ordered his possessions burned.

[Descant 1,898]

Rose rolled her eyes. "And just how are any of us supposed to get back to Canterlot? None of us here can fly at the moment, let alone carry the rest of us and the Prince. We don't know where we are, besides 'an island in the middle of the ocean'. If you have any brilliant ideas, let me know." Rose sighed, and wiped away a single tear. No wonder Morningstar had tried to get away from this lot as often as he could.

Star grabbed an oar and started paddling towards the island, she ignored the occasional twinge of pain in her wing. "Could somepony help paddle." She looked up at the guards who were helping them pull the boat towards the island. 

 

 

After a few minutes they were pulling the lifeboat onto shore. "So... What do we do now ?" She asked.

 

 

(OOC: If I am making things go by to fast... Just tell me and I will edit.)

[Undyne 1,483]

"SS-S-S-Somber Tones..."

 

The zebra chief eyed him, circling him deeply around the fire. He yelled a few unrecognizable words, as two zebras put out the fire and untangled Somber from the ropes.

 

"Come with me, black one.... We have much of to talk about...", he said, as he pointed to a large grass hut, in a tree. Somber follows him up there.

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

The capiton sighed."There are more of us on the beach you will be taken care of, but the prince's death sadness us but our duty is to insure  that our orders is carried out, but we must ask you this when the time is right we will call you to canterlot so that your story and those around yous story is recorded in our canterlot archives" .

[Marathon 562]

When they reached shore Stacy went up to rose and smiled. "Come on, lets get you off this boat." She looked down at her leg and she hid the worry not wanting to stress rose. Stacy lifted rose on her back and steped off. When she reached a small distance Stacy gently put rose down. "Im going to go see if anypony else needs help. You should just wait here." She then headed back to the boat to see if there were any hidden supplys on it.

[Descant 1,898]

Rose was grateful. She had no desire whatsoever to test her leg, which she still avoided looking at. She knew it wouldn't be a fun sight. She'd wait until she had the supplies to fix it. She looked towards the Guard Captain, who had followed her onto the beach. "Well, obviously I'll speak with the folk at Canterlot when this is all done and over," she said innocently. "But my main concern right now is letting somepony know what happened, and getting help. I have an idea, but I'll need to be able to have a clear view west, towards the mainland. And it figures that we landed on the east side of the island, doesn't it?" She gestured helplessly at the leg she still refused to look at. "So unless y'all have a better idea, how about worry about getting off this island before we worry about making a Canterlotian record of this trip?" She was explaining this with the patient, caring tone of a parent explaining to a very emotional toddler that two plus two equals four, not five.

Morning stars royal guards began to help out by healing the wounded they didn't know were they are or anything they just knew that this island was no where near canterlot  but hopefully they could get to Canterlot soon. They began to debate if the prince's body should be  berried here instead of being put into a tomb back at canterlot.

Star climbed out of the boat and sat on the beach next to Rose.

She stared out at the ocean trying not to cry. But then. *Were those... Drums ?*  She thought, Glancing back towards the forest.

*It cant be... I guess its just my ears.* She looked back out at the ocean as a tear rolled down her cheek.

[Marathon 562]

Stacy went back to her boat and she noticed the bottom was kind large. She got back in it and repeatedly stomped her hoof on the floor until she broke through. When she did she looked in it and found some survival stuff. Pleased she grabbed her saddle bag wich had somehow made it to the front of the boat and stuffed the supplies in it. She walked back towards Rose and dropped it there. "Theres medical supplies there if you need them. Also theres breakfast. Enjoy."

[Undyne 1,483]

"So, your boat had sunk, with you falling out, the current that you had described of was the Equestrian Gulf, and you were washed up here..."

 

"Y-yes. That's my whole story.", Somber replied, as they sat around a small table.

 

"Interesting...", the zebra chief replied. "Perhaps, this could work out."

 

"What could work out?"

 

Immediately, the chief yelled out more sounds, as three zebras came into the hut.

 

"Let's transform our guest right away."

 

"Wh-what?"

[Windy Scamper 403]

(I'm going to speed this up a bit...)

 

Scamps paddled hard, and eventually they reached the island. And, they got lucky; other ponies from the incident were there. She saw royal gaurds all around.

 

"Hey!" Scamps called. "Stacy! Rose!" She ran over, carrying Airy with her and laying his body in the soft sand. She then looked at the royal gaurds.

 

"Thank Celestia they found us. So, royal guards, are you here to take us home?"
