private The Amulet of the Eventide (RP)

[The Original 571]

 

Maroon Sky noticed the green earth pony from earlier had pulled out a small object that could only be an explosive. If his hunch was right, the stallion could make a very useful ally in this expedition. He trotted closer to the pony. "So, I take it your talent is explosion? How many of those things you have in there?"

 

Quip turned to the stallion. "About 10 impact bombs, three mine nets, 15 grenades, and one 'surprise', in case of something huge" he said as if he only needed a third of that for the mission. "I normally make fireworks, but since they are so similar, I took the offer and did some research, found out how to make proper bombs"

Maroon Sky had to repress an urge to whistle on the sheer size of the stallion's explosive arsenal. If he didn't know better, he would think that the stallion was out to hunt a hydra or two. Maroon Sky didn't know just how potent the explosives are, but it was most certainly feel good to know that at least there would be enough explosives to get themselves out from any sticky situation. He smiled. "I hope I can see you and your explosions in action, then," Maroon sky said. "Anyway, as you may have heard earlier, my name is Maroon Sky. It's an honor to meet you."

Flame quietly followed the group towards the carriages. *I wonder how long we will be in the carriages...I have always hated being stuck in small spaces like that...Plus having other ponies pull me around makes me feel kinda lazy.* He thought, adjusting his saddlebag.

Quip eyed him, "Honoured? I really haven't done anything honourable yet, but lets hope that changes soon. Anyway. I'm Quip. So what do you do? I mean, other than clubbing... things. If you don't mind me askin' that is" he questioned. The stone clubs were rather impressive, but it doesn't nearly have the range a bomb does.

"To meet a fellow adventurer is an honor in itself," Maroon Sky answered, his eyes started to wander around. While his hooves were still moving alongside the group, for the briefest moment his eyes lost any focus on his surrounding. He exhaled a breath he didn't know he was holding before continuing. "My specialties are fire-based spellbinding. To put it simply, I can make things do what they're usually doing when they're on fire from a distance." He nodded to his clubs. "These stones make a perfect medium for that."

Lost Knowledge payed little attention to the others. While they talked he just walked along silently, mentally preparing for the journey ahead. He saw no need to talk to the others unless they were to approach him for something. A true professional keeps to themselves.

Goldseek slowed down and followed the group from behind, not wanting to start a conversation with anypony. Making friends will only make it more tragic if they die. Goldseek was used to the feeling. He drew his scimitar, examining the blade and making sure it was still sharp. He then returned the weapon into its sheath and looked at his puzzle box. He had hidden something special in it this time. Something important. But he couldn't remember what.

Discharge listened quietly to the soft conversations being had behind his as the ponies made their way to the carriages, when suddenly he heard a voice perk up. "We're leaving now, and as far as we know this Amulet it exactly that, an Amulet. It's a rock on a rope. That is as far as we know" he suddenly stopped and turned to Chatty "We've been paid to retrieve this Amulet for a reason however, so it's safe to say it's more than that. Princess Luna obviously knows what it is, but she didn't tell me." There was an odd tone to his voice as he spoke, one that couldn't seem to make out what it wanted to be. He looked across to examine the group. There where chatty ones, anxious ones, quiet ones, and one blue pegasus even looked nervous. 

 

"You alright Flame Dancer?" he called "You've been fiddling around with your things ever since you arrived." 

[chattydash 62]

chatty now has closer he now knows what he is doing he tryed to get as close as posible to the frount he likes to be at the frount of the que he dost know why he just likes to lead but he tryed to stay out of a crowd he was thinking i wounder whats so important and why does luna want it maybe she wants to turn evil or some think chatty then spoke hay but how long will this adventure take he knew it was stupid to ask that but he was curiouse with that he flew quitely above the others waiteing for somepony to answer

"You alright Flame Dancer?" he called "You've been fiddling around with your things ever since you arrived." 

 

Flame looked up and shrugged. "i'm just not very social." He said, walking next to Discharge. "Fiddling with my things gives me something to do while we walk...plus I find it kinda relaxing." He chuckled. "So...What kind of monsters do we expect to come across ?" He asked.

[Agent505 661]

@,

 

Discharge took a minute to think on his answers, he didn't want to scare the group. "Hopefully the only only thing we'll have to worry about is a bit of rain." He then fell silent for a few moments before he spoke up again "I can understand not being social, but I hope that wont put anypony in danger, will it?" he asked, giving flame a serious look.

"Oh no no...In fact it will probably make us more safe...I can focus on fighting rather than socializing, because one of those things I am actually good at." He said, making a small gesturing at his double sided spear. *Even if I want to get to know some of these ponies...I guess the mission is more important.* He thought.

Discharge spread his wings wide, his left wing extended wide, revealing a single row of long pristine feathers, all oddly well groomed for an adventurer. His right wing however, only extended about 3/4s of the total way, and seemed to have a second joint half way along the span, the feathers only slightly less well kept than the other side, but a noticeable gap in the center.

"Glad to hear it" he smiled as he took to the sky, to see how much further they had to travel to the carriages. From what he could see of them, they where probably about half way. "I wonder why they parked so far out?" he thought out loud.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,802]

Flame nodded and couldn't help but look at Discharges wing as he flew into the air. *I wonder what happened there ?* He thought, tripping over a large rock but catching himself before he fell. He spread his wings and flew alongside the group. *Who needs walking ?* He thought, smiling slightly as he did a barrel roll.

Maroon Sky watched in interest when Ardent took the sky. The unnatural bend of his wing, Maroon wondered what monster could had cause such grievous wound. When another pegasus followed Ardent's lead and flew, he shouted to Ardent so that he could hear him, "Should we pick up our pace, then?"

[Alex Kennedy 1,228]

Lost Knowledge noticed all the pegasi in the group seemed to be taking to the skies. He took that as a sign to pick up the pace, which was fine by him. He couldn't wait to begin investigating the amulet. This mission could be the opportunity of a lifetime.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,802]

(OOC: Its just Flame and Discharge who are flying you know...Not all the pegasai are in the air, plus flame is just flying alongside the group.)

 

Flame did a couple small loops to give himself something to do. Then he landed at the back of the group and quietly followed. *Ugh...When will we get there.* He thought.

"No need!" Discharge shouted with some glee in his voice, he then dived down to the floor and landed a way ahead of the group, close enough for them to catch up quickly, but far enough for him to talk to the carriage driver before anyone arrived. "What's going on? 3 carriages?" He said in a hush tone to the carriage driver.

"What? Is there a problem?" 

"Well, I was expecting 5 carriages...I paid for five carriages." 

"Right, well I only got the message to bring the 3, so it's these, or nothing." 

 

Discharge turned around, he could feel the anger welling up inside him, but he kept a bottle on it and soon returned to his straight talking self as he rounded the corner to face his group "We got 3 carriages, that's 3 ponies each. Me and Aqua will be taking the center, whoever wants to ride with us is welcomed." He shouted as he sat down and waited.

Goldseek walked straight to the closest one, not wanting to waste any valuable time. They had a life changing amulet to find, and Goldseek wanted to sit down. He entered the carriage and sat on the seat, waiting for everypony else. He decided to only talk to a pony if they talked to him.

[Starshine 16,334]

Maroon Sky continued trotting with a steady pace, following Ardent's lead.

 

 

"We got 3 carriages, that's 3 ponies each. Me and Aqua will be taking the center, whoever wants to ride with us is welcomed." He shouted as he sat down and waited.

 

Maroon Sky looked at the carriages. They were big enough to carry three ponies with some breathing space. Without waiting for others he decided to take the furthest one and sat on its seat. He hoped that the ride would be an uneventful one. If a group of bandits attacked them with the carriage pullers around would easily spell disaster for everypony.

@Starshine

 

chatty could see the carriage's. he noticed one pony walking on board. he spoke "hay can i come on with you?" chatty asked he did not want to sit alone he just wanted to talk "oh by the way my names chatty whats yours?" he just stood on the ground and awaited a reply to his questions from the strange pony.     

[Alex Kennedy 1,228]

@, 

 

Lost Knowledge shrugged and headed into the closest carriage. It didn't really matter to him he was sharing a carriage with, since he wouldn't talk much unless spoken to. He climbed in the carriage and sat down next to Goldseek, awaiting their departure.

[The Original 571]

(I'm just guessing that the carriages are lined up, closest, middle, farthest/front)

 

Quip wasn't very good at deciding, so he picked the middle one with Discharge and Aqua. "I'll try and keep quiet, cause if I start talking, I probably won't stop for a while." He sat down and tried not to look at anypony.

Flame shrugged and climbed into the closest carriage. He sat down across from the two other ponies and looked out the window. *I wonder why this amulet is so important...I bet its magical or something.* He thought, stretching his wings and tapping his hooves against the ground.
