[Umbra Thunderwing 82]

Hop took one last glance at the mare who seemed to be a little jealous, then followed Umbra. When he stopped Hop took a moment to try and figure stuff out. "How much do you remember?" she asked with a worried expression. It was rather strange that he had a bandage on his head. Unless he hit it on something.

"N-not much... I woke up in a hospital bed, they told me I'd taken a nasty blow to the head. I wasn't on any census records but apparently I was a wonderbolt of some description." He fished around in his bag and pulled out a paper from about 2 days after he disappeared. 'Wonderbolt flyer Umbra Thunderwing takes a plummet! More inside on his fall from grace.' "I had no family I knew of, they didn't know where I lived for some reason and the wonders weren't much help. They told me something about a little hop pony but apparently I never told them much about her"

They told me something about a little hop pony but apparently I never told them much about her"

*At least he remembers something about me.* she thought to herself. It made sense now. Umbra had gone off to work, and when he didn't come back she didn't think to ask the wonder bolts. "Umbra, Im little Hop. Do you really not remember me that well?" Maybe she did have a chance to get him back, but only if he wanted.

[Descant 1,898]

Electro Dash returned back to facing the front. But she still told the truth. "Thank Celestia! It felt like you were rushing things to me, and thought you didn't realise. Looks like you have got the will to realise reality after all." She gave him a friendly hug. "Don't worry yourself. I forgive your decisio."

Descant sighed, and returned the hug, patting Dash on the back awkwardly. She seemed pleased he had stopped himself... But he thought it was because he'd been going too fast, not because she was disinterested...  After all, she had moved to hold his hoof, hadn't he? He decided to not pursue hoof-holding again, at least, not at the moment. Deciding he may as well try and keep talking, Descant asked about something he had been wondering. "What's your suit for? Are you on a flying team? It doesn't look like any I recognise."

@@Descant, 

 

"Ok Rag, I gotta go check on the space wheel, I heard some rather strange noises coming from it when I was practicing earlier. After the show do you maybe...Wanna go grab a drink...By that I mean steal a drink from the big boss man pony ?" He asked, grinning.

"Umbra, Im little Hop. Do you really not remember me that well?" Maybe she did have a chance to get him back, but only if he wanted.

"W-what?" he pulled out the locket she'd given him last hearth's warming. A picture of her was inside. "Oh my gods it's you. I loved you. I-I still do b-but I could never find you. In the end I gave up. What am I going to tell Rockshire?" He started sobbing into his wing.

Electro Dash blushed slightley. " It's , partially two things. My friend creatd it to help me fly. That's sparky for ya. And, its made to help cover the fact i. Have no cutie mark..." She looked away, not wanting to show her embarressed face. "i don't think it' anythink special. But, yaknow..."

[Descant 1,898]

@,

 

Rag grinned unblushingly, and nodded. "I'd love to have a drink with you," she said, winking. "I need to go make sure Tag has actually got all his stuff together. He's pretty lazy..." She gave him a hug before dashing off to where she knew Tag to be. And, predictably, Tag was still struggling to blow up that giant beach ball. He looked up when Rag entered the room, letting the air blow out of the ball. "Drat." He looked at the ball disappointedly, then looked up at Rag. His face lit up with a mischievous smile. "So, who is it?"

"Who's what?"

"Don't pretend. You've found somepony. It's written clearly across your face."

"Maybe I did, maybe I didn't." She dismissed the aura with an air of mystery and a smug smile. Whoever it was, she was clearly not going to tell her brother. Yet.

 

Tag grinned. It was about time Rag was happy. She'd been down since that incident a little over a year ago... He looked at his desk, where next to the picture of that purple pony was a second picture, with a mare and stallion that so resembled the pair of them...

 

(OOC: FD, you can give Diamond a cameo in this if you want, as Tag's marefriend.)

 

 

 

@,

 

Descant frowned. "I was a late bloomer too, you know. I didn't find mine until about a year ago. But let's not talk about that..." He trailed away awkwardly. He hadn't meant to make Dash feel so uncomfortable. The wheel lurched, as it started to move again.

Hop didn't know what to do when Umbra started crying on her shoulder. So she patted his back, "Its ok. Im not sure what to tell her. And besides, why didn't you look in ponyville?" she asked wondering if he had forgotten that as well. She looked back over to the mare whos name apparently is Rockshire. And she didn't seem to happy with Hop.

(im basing that last part based on that you said she was getting a little jealous)

(OOC: Derp, I misunderstood that. Hey Moonbeam can I introduce Star into the RP as Tag's Mare friend ? Edit. I am going for a walk right myaw, I will be back later.)

 

Flame blushed slightly when Rag hugged him. "Ok, I'll...I'll see ya later." He smiled and happily trotted off to the catwalk where the Wheel of Death would be lowered down so it was just above the stage.

Before he flew up to the Cat Walk he grabbed a tool box from his room.

 

After Flame Flew up to where the Space Wheel was kept, He pulled out a few tools and started tightening the bolts that held the whole thing together.

Electro Dash looked back "Ya know what? I hate awkward moments. I don't know why things are so awkward they just are." She gave him a kiss on the cheek." Dont think that as anything. Yet. How about you come sit with me when the main event starts. Alright?" She felt almost regretfull fo what she just done, but decided not to show it.

Umbra sobbed for a little longer "For the longest time I only knew your name and how I felt for you. Nothing else. I was lucky to be left with that." he said. "C-can you forgive me?" he asked, looking up at her beautiful eyes, his whole body shaking with fear and sadness.

"Of course I can." she said holding Umbra in a tight hug. She saw a couple of unknown ponies stare at them but she ignored them. Right now she had to help Umbra. She also had to deal with Rockshire and Hop didn't want to get into any fights, and Umbra probably didn't need another injury.

He flinched a little like when they'd first met. He took a piece of paper and a quill. He wrote; ['b]@[/b],  I'm sorry for playing with your emotions. It's probably best if you try to forget about me. My most profound apologies ~ Umbra.' He left the note on the bench next to the napping mare. He walked back to Hop. "How about we go somewhere else and you tell me a bit about myself?" he smiled.

[Descant 1,898]

As the Ferris Wheel stopped at the top of the structure, Descant smiled, and felt the place where Dash had kissed him burn. He smiled. But he nodded, and tried not to let his mind linger on it... "Of course, I'd be more than happy to sit with you. I wonder how much longer until it starts." And with that note, music started coming from the big tent in the center of the field. "Huh. Nevermind. We should probably be getting over there soon." The Ferris wheel started moving again, as if aware that everypony wanted to get to the main attraction. Their carriage stopped on the ground floor next, and Descant again allowed Dash to precede him as they got off.

 

 

 

 

 

Rag sat in the tent, slightly annoyed, blowing up the ball that Tag had so failed to, while Tag sat at his desk, finishing the streaks in his mane, as he stared at the picture of the elegant violet mare. Rag finished blowing up the ball, and went to look over Tag's shoulder at it. She truly was a beautiful pony...

 

They waited, near the mouth leading to the main room of the large, circus tent, for their turn to go on, as did many other ponies around them...

Once again, Electro Dash smiled as she got off. It may seem silly, but nopony had ever had manners or formality towards her. She liked it, bieng treated the way she should. When they entered the big tent, Electro Dash started looking for the peferct seats. Eventually she found a pair, not too high nor too low, and tge pefect angle to see as well "hey, how about we go sit over there?" she asked, and before he coild respond, picked him up and flew over to the seats, before puting him down to take a seat.

Hop nodded her head and lead Umbra to a area under a sun umbrella, then proceeded to tell Umbra everything she knew up to the day he disappeared. " Well, that's about all I know about you. Im just glad I found you." she then hugged Umbra tight. "Rockshire probably isn't going to be very happy about this you know."

Descant was about to respond when -"W-Whoa!"- Dash picked him up and carried him over to the seats she had pointed out anyway. She must be pretty strong! Descant held his breath until she sat him down, and when she did, he released it in a burst of laughter. "Mind warning me next time?" He wasn't mad, he was laughing about it. But he'd prefer to know about it ahead of time next time.

[Naturematthe 51]

Airy lay a hoof on Scamps' back. "You'll do great, I know that. And don't worry, I'll be with you all the time. If you're just careful, nothing will happen to you."

He said these sentences very calmly, but actually he was about as nervous as Scamps. She was doing really difficult and even dangerous tricks... He never would be able to apologise to himself if anything happened to her.

You know, when thd pony is strapped up and they throw knifes at them?. That bit always scares me, no matter how trained i know they are."

@@Descant, 

 

After tightening all the loose bolts Flame placed his tool box in his change room and put on his costume, Then he trotted off too where everypony was getting ready to enter, He searched around for Rag and her brother Tag.

When he caught sight of them he smiled and trotted over. "Hey you two." He paused, Realizing he didn't really have a reason to come over. "Um...Good luck." 

[Descant 1,898]

@, 

Descant smiled, still laughing. "Of course I'm eager to finally see the performance. I've only been waiting to see it for over a year. Both of the ponies I live with are performers. Oh, look." The first performers were starting to trickle on, with the ringmaster.

 

 

 

@, 

Tag eyed Flame Dancer curiously. He had never come out of his way to greet them before... Then he realized that Flame Dancer didn't seem to be talking to him at all... He seemed to only have eyes for Rag, who was responding a little too enthusiastically. His eyes flitted between the two of them, and suddenly two and two started to be added together...

 

Rag smiled, and said, "You too!" It was almost time to go on, for them, and she looked at her twin, as if telling him it was time to get ready. He didn't notice right away, and she had to shout his name to get him to notice.

Umbra sighed. "I-I don't know. You... you know first hand I don't know how to work with mares... at least... I think you do. I'm glad you found me too, before that poor mare got too attached." he smiled. "Well s-since we're here why don't we have a b-bit of fun? Catch up some of our lost time?"

Hop smiled, "Sounds like a plan." She got up and looked around for something to do. "Is there anything you want to do?" She asked in a sweet voice remembering how shy he was when she first met him. Hop had to practically start all over with him but she didnt mind.

".... We're missing the performance!" he said, grabbing her hoof gently, leading her towards the tent. "All the good seats will be gone" he moaned. His voice holding more confidently once again. as they sat to watch the performance, he rested his head against her shoulder.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,802]

Flame smiled at the two and trotted off to wait. The voice of the Ringmaster echoed around the tent and the first performance started.

 

Flame trotted to a small spot in the corner of the room and started Stretching before he went onto the stage. *I can't wait for tonight...Sneaking around and steeling apple cider from (Insert owner of the circus's name here)* He thought, Smiling, And glancing over at Rag and Tag who would be going onto stage soon.
