open Happenings in the Everfree RP

'' Well, I better go find the others before I run out of time. Luckily, I don't have anymore demons to try to defeat.''

 

Fireblaze puts her head down, tears start to roll down her cheeks. Looking up at the sky, putting her arms up to the sky.

 

'' Why does this have to happen to us? This is just so unfair.''

[The Elusive Cinder 1,328]

@,

"Just... take care of yourself, yes?" He couldn't help but grin a little at her determination. Remembering that they weren't in the clear yet, he snapped his thoughts back onto the matter at hoof. "Did you happen to see what became of your friends? I saw nothing of them out in the forest."

@, 

 

"I think I saw Silver swinging at a tree.." Minty nodded at Redwave. She trotted as fast as she could, and eventually saw a path with Impetus, cowering in a corner. She then saw everypony else, either having a spasm or screaming and crying. She wasn't sure who to help.

[LittleRawr 679]

Lyona heard Impetus' voice, but it was faint and blurry. It sounded as if he was shouting. She covered her eyes with one hoof, and her ears with another.

 

" I failed you... I failed you all, and let you die. I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry..." She whimpered. The screams in her head didn't stop.

[The Elusive Cinder 1,328]

@,

"Well at least he can't hurt himself with a tree... Probably." Red acknowledged as they approached the others.

 

"I... don't exactly know for certain how to help them." He confided in Minty. "Your captain, Lyona, Perhaps she can assist, if anyone? Certainly she seems to... inspire the others."

 

He shrugged.

 

"You know them better than I, Minty. Which needs help the most?"

--------------------

[Ihei 713]

@, @@LittleRawr,

Minty bit her lip, looking around at the injured ponies. She looked at Lyona. "Lyona!" she said, trotting over to her, stumbling a few times, and still getting there.

 

(( OOC: I know. Don't pay attention to the filler. Fillers are annoying now. Stop the fillers. Filler. ))

[Mikestar 346]

"What...? What happened?" The mare blinked as the darkness drew sharply away to reveal the colours if the world. "Silver...? Uhm... I've got to stop waking up like this."

 

 

Silver had been stomping out the little fires that Cinder had lit. "Cinder?" Silver called to her. "Are you able to see me? Can you see through the illusions?" Silver still wasn't sure if this was the real Cinderblock... Hmmm. how to test it. Most of the illusions he couldn't touch, but some of them it seemed like he could. There was only one sure fire way he could know... but dare he risk it?

 

I can't let my personal fears of rejection come before her well being... I need to know if this is really her...

 

Nervously, Silver leaned in and kissed Cinder softly on the cheek....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yep... it's her! 

 

He then threw his forehooves around her. "It's really you this time" he told to her feeling a little tremble of emotion and relief go through him.

 

 

 

A piercing howl and a cacophony of growls filled the air, almost drowning out the accusing whispers.

 

Silver broke loose of the embrace and shuddered at the sound of the howls. It's another illusion. He thought Ignore it and dont' fear....

 

Just as he was thinking this... four menacing looking Timber wolves came out of the scrub and started creeping towards him and Cinderblock, snarling and dripping saliva on the forest floor.

 

Silver blinked at them briefly. He glaned at Cinder, unsure if she has snapped out of it or not yet,

 

"I can handle this..." He pranced up to the timber wolves boldly. "You're just illusions. You won't scare me!"

 

One of the timber wolves lunged at him, claws raking down his left wing. Silver cried out as the pain shot through him, blood trickling down his damaged wing bone. 

 

"Aaaarrrrrrg! This illusion HURTS! but you're still an illusion... and I can still fly!" Silver attempted to launch himself into the air, just to prove a point. he flapped his right wing, but his left wig failed him and he crashed to the ground.

 

"Oh great Celestia, they're real!" Silver backed up towards Cinderblock putting himself between her and the timberwolves he suddenly realized his inadequacy to handle this situation. 

 

Quicky grabbing out his bugle he sounded an alarm hoping beyond hope that somepony would hear him.

@@Mikestar,

'Oh...!'
 
It still felt like Cinders head was filled with static - He hadn't helped in that regard. She missed whatever happened over the next couple of seconds until...

"Aaaarrrrrrg! This illusion HURTS! but you're still an illusion... and I can still fly!"

 
"Silver, I don't think thats an Illusion..." She said, looking back at what was apparently a small pack of Timber Wolves. "Stay away from them!"
 
--------------------



@,

"Oh by the...."
 
Spitting out curses at the sound of the bugle, Red panicked, looking back and forth between Minty, Lyona and the direction of the sounds.
 
"I take it back, It sounds like somehow, said tree has managed to outmatch him..."
 
He glanced anxiously back and forth.The bugle... that was the sound he had heard while he was dreaming. What was the fool playing at? He was going to attract...
 
"Oh no..."

@,

 

Minty limped along, seeing that a pack of Timber Wolves have joined the chaos. She tried to trot away, but it didn't work out.. she fell flat on her muzzle and her wing got even worse as a wolf approached her. "AAH!" Minty screamed, attempting to kick the wolf, but it bit her leg instead. 

[Mikestar 346]

"Silver, I don't think thats an Illusion..." She said, looking back at what was apparently a small pack of Timber Wolves. "Stay away from them!"

 

 

Silver grabbed up a large branch, still standing firmly between Cinder and the wolves. He swung it at the wolves in a less than elegant fashion. "I'm not a fighter, He told Cinder "but If  have to die while you get away... RUN Cinder.... Just RUN!"

 

He swung the branch clumsily again at one of the wolves, it yelped like a puppy as it hit the ground. the other three continued to claw at him. Silver backed up, pushing Cinder with him into a little hollow in the bushes.

 

"You can get away through that gap at the back" he told Cinder "I can hold them for a while... " Silver was secretly thinking that he could use his own body as an obstacle to block the gap. It would take them long enough to tear through it and Cinder would have a fair head start. "Just run, please run... I... I can't bear it if you died" he said thinking of the awful illusions and how he'd felt. If only he really did have that fighting ability.

 

 

 

"AAH!" Minty screamed,

 

Silver noticed Redwave heading towards them.

 

"Help Minty!" he called out to him.

 

I don't think I'm getting out of this one alive Silver thought dismally to himself.

@@Mikestar,

'What in Equestria is he playing at?'
 
Cinder took a moment to realize that Silver was trying to do exactly what Scribe would have in the same situation: trying to play the hero. Unfortunately, he seemed to be armed with a bugle and a stick.

"Don't be stupid!" She yelled, pulling him back. "I've seen worse than this, you'll only get yourself killed. What happened to the shell I gave you, when the animals that were following you?"
 
--------------------



@,

"Minty!" Shouted the armed pony, launching himself at the wolfs side without a second thought, momentum sending the two of them rolling away. "Release her!"

 

'A pretty mare comes along and you turn suicidal? Good show captain.' He couldn't help thinking to himself.

@, 

 

Minty started to whimper as a gash appeared where the wolf bit her, and eventually stopped. But then it attacked her full time, but with Minty having a injured hoof, she can't walk. She was as helpless as a fly, and she was about to die from a Timber Wolf attack.

"Oh great, she thinks I'm stupid... " he thought "Gah get this nonsense out of your head this is an emergency!"

 

"The shell? Oh the SHELL" he said, remembering the smoke bomb. He grabbed it out of his saddle bag and threw it at the wolves

 

"POOF!"

 

The area was masked in smoke and ash, covering both ponies and the wolves. Silver turned on his hooves and shoved Cinder through the gap, following after her and leaving the stunned wolves coughing and dazed.

 

 "They're made of wood... we need Fireblaze!" he said as he galloped away, hoping that Ciderblock was at his side.

 

"At least now were a perfect match" he thought, looking at his ashen coat with barely a hit of silver showing through.

 

((OOC I did remember the smoke bomb but wanted to create drama and suspense LOL. Had plan B, C AND D in mind also It was 'multiple choice rescue' time. be back in four hours guys and gals.)))

@,

 

Bringing his sword down cleanly into the Timber Wolf's back, Redwave was slightly concerned by the fact that it barely seemed to slow it down. On the other hoof, it did seem to have the desired effect: the creatures head whipped around furiously.

 

"Go Away!" He yelled in its face, lashing out with a hoof. "Anypony about who wants to assist us, by all means feel free to step in now, this would be a really good time!"

 

"Or even better, if Minty could fight like she was when I first saw her..."

(OOC: Sorry it took me a while to post again, had to care of some business.)

 

Fireblaze looks over at the Timber Wolf being cut by Redwave.

 

'' I would be happy enough to help you of course!'' Jumping off of the ground looking over at the Timberwolf, throwing down fireballs on the Timber Wolf's back. Taking out her machete, slicing the Timber Wolf's neck open.

 

'' I hope that did it, so that the wolf will not interfere with our mission or anything that we have in mind.'' Putting away her machete.

[Ihei 713]

@,

 

Minty shut her eyes tight, trying not to look at the Timber Wolf anymore. Other than that, she can't move, either. She squeaked in pain. Her whole body was aching and burning. All of her hooves felt like they were going to collapse, her wing about to completely fall off, and her scar on her face almost made her half blind.

"My thanks." Red gasped, rounding on his friend.
 
@,

"Oh Sisters... Hold still." He said, tearing one of the strips of red cloth he wore from the scabbard and reaching for the wing - It looked pretty badly mauled. "I'm no doctor unfortunately, and theres only so much I can do with rags and good wishes."

'' You're welcome. Besides, I had to help you fend off that carnivorous, bloodthirsty timber wolf since to be honest I didn't want nopony to get hurt since I care about you all.'' Fireblaze puts her hoof on her forehead saluting over to Cinder.

 

'' So try to be careful out there.''

--------------------

Minty bit her lip in pain, trying not to worry Redwave with her whining, as always. Her eyes clouded in tears, but at the same time smiled a reassuring smile at Redwave.. "I'm fine.." It even hurt to talk, so she let it out as a mumble. Who knew Timber Wolves can be so crazy..? Minty squeaked in agony.

"I believe you... He returned her smile as best he could, still twisting and looping the cloth by her side, suddenly pulling it tight, binding the wing in place.

 

"My apologies! He almost instantly added, the poorly disguised agony on her face tearing him up inside. "That should hold it in place, at least."

--------------------

Minty frowned in pain, but smiled at Redwave's concern. She looked at the camp, and tried to stand up. Yet she failed, and crumbled back down to the ground like a building after an earthquake. She looked up at Redwave, pointing at the camp. She just needed to rest.

[The Elusive Cinder 1,328]

 

@,

 

He looked in the direction she was pointing - back towards their camp.

 

"You need to get someplace safe, can you stand? If I support you?" He asked urgently: the growls he had heard couldn't have been from a single Timber Wolf - he might not know much about these creatures but all wolves were pack hunters...

 

'Your supposed to be looking after them all Redwave, not just the one of them!' His mind shouted.

Minty looked up at Redwave with pleading eyes, looking like she's about to cry. Well, she's about to die if nopony helps her quick.

@,

 

"... Of course, stupid question." Red chastised himself, noting the desperate look the mare was giving him. "Okay, stay with me Minty, let us get you to safety..."

 

He hefted her up and recklessly charged towards the meagre campsite carrying her, stumbling in his haste.

 

Placing the mare down again and trying to ignore the blood on his coat, he started to try and stem the worst of the bleeding.

 

"Come now Minty, we need you to fight through this... I need you to fight through it!"

 

He looked up at her, holding what might have been the torn remains of the sleeping bag she had offered him against one of the larger cuts as he tried to find something to hold it in place. Initially, he had been most concerned about the wound to her face: though while it was likely to scar, the damage was already done and the immediate danger had passed.

 

"I once had need to take off the leg of a colt at sea, if I didn't let him down, then I'm not going to let down..." What had she called him? "... The mare of my dreams. Now don't die on me!""

@,

 

Eyes glazing over in response to her actions, Red quickly set about cleaning up the bloodied mare as best he could.

 

Between the alcohol, the crude 'bandages' and his considerably limited knowledge of healing, it was a very rough job, but one done with more care and attention than he had ever managed before.

 

Eventually, all that could be done was to wait and see what would happen: he had done everything he could - now it was her turn.

 

"I'm here, just... Don't leave me here alone." He mumbled to the unconscious pony, forgetting his forced accent for a moment before sliding to the ground himself, exhausted.
