(Sorry about making this so fast-paced, but i really just want to get to Bruchellia soon.)

 

"Well, like i said before, i spent the past 4 years in Magic School, i then graduated, Celestia thinks i don't need any more learning bu..."

Starburst seized up and his head started to hurt, a vision appeared, it was a bridge, there were explosives on the bridge, and a train headed towards the explosives.

"are you alright Starburst?: Said Grand worriedly. "you look a little shocked. Is there something wrong?" She said, looking at him with concern. She turned to the window and noticed a bridge in the distance. "well it seems we are quite close to The Baltimare bridge now" she said nonchalantly

Stephan decided he wasn't getting anywhere with just standing there. He jumped through a window to get inside the train to join up with the others. He noticed Starburst was hurting. "Starburst, are you doing fine? You seem tense, buddy."

"I... bridge?" Starburst turned around to see a bridge coming closer to them, he looked even closer to see that there were flashing lights on the side of it. 

"It's not going to stop in time and we need this train for transport. What to do? What to do?" Starburst thought.

Suddenly, the bridge exploded, bringing down the rails.

[Grand_Finale 529]

The explosion shook the whole train and caused Grand to fall to the floor. "What in equestria was that?" she said, regaining her balance. Her prosthetic leg had become loose from the explosion. She looked out the window and saw the bridge. "Well isnt that just peachy" she said, trying to fix the leg, with little success.

[Guest]

Josh felt the explosion as it threw his equipment all over the carriage. He quickly collected everything that,had been scattered . Then ran to the carriage where everyone was. "that in the name of equestri a was that!?" He asked looking out the window towards the bridge

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

"Mum, i have a plan, start enveloping the train in a levitation field, but don't let it take effect, i'll do the same, activate on my signal."

Starburst and Missy's horns started glowing, the train walls glowed in a faint ethereal way. The train was getting closer to the gap, any second... "Now!" Their horns started to glow much brighter, the train floating over the gap and landing with a loud clang.
The two looked clearly more tired than before.
"Quick thinking, son." Fire Horn said.

[Grand_Finale 529]

Grand looked out the window, pale. "well I suppose it pays to have two alicorns with us" she said, still trying to ix her leg, "But now the next question is, who put the explosives there? Somepony must have known we were comig" she said, finally tightening her leg

[Guest]

josh stared back at the bridge. "probably badits a certain damgerous group operate around here and unfortunantly for us know what they are doing with weapons" josh sighed "if they try to chase us we could be in trouble" he looked ar grand " need help with the leg?"

[Grand_Finale 529]

"nope" she grunted, pulling the final strap tight. "I got it" she said, standing on it to check its stability. "I should be good now, but we need to find out who this new threat is. I doubt its trotters" she said, looking at the destoryed bridge behing them. "I hope there isnt any other little surprises waiting for us"

[Guest]

josh smiled at grand fixed the leg "if it is the bandit group im.thinking.of then they could have traps all along the railway" he carefuly examines the track ahead "ive run.into them.in the last few years they are pretty much the only.dangerous amd organised gang of bandits" as they past a part of the forest he saw a trotter fall "they have a bloodthirsty leader"

[Geek0zoid 1,468]

Stephan woke up outside the train, with even more burns than before. He noticed the train stopped and he ran to it. He began to build up speed to push it back into motion. He pushed with all of his might in the rear of the train and slightly got it to move forward. He then began to notice the bridge being out and he stopped. "Well, that kills that plan" He said to himself.

Grand watched as the train slowly entered Baltimare. The City was over run. There was no way they would be able to get through easily. "So whats the plan then?" said Grand as she watched the Trottersshamble through the streets. "We will have to make a plan before we do anything"

[Guest]

josh stared at the trotters slowly aproaching the train and grinned staring at his scythe "i say we should go at them take them out and reach a boat" he streched his wings and took.out a smoke pelet "or one or two of us could distract them while the rest get a towards the boat"

[Grand_Finale 529]

"No, its far too dangerous. Theres far too many of them to just attack them blindly. We need some sort of plan, we need to locat a boat, and leave immediately" she said sternly, watching the trotters only grow in numbers. "It would be stupid to attack them with no idea of where we need to go"

Zeta looked toward Grand, rocking his head side to side while folding his arms. His own plan was devised already, knowing from how much this armor can sustain against anything. "When you figure out a plan, I can bust through the trotters to form a temporary path toward where we need to go. I don't know how there's going to be any boats in the area unless one was provided for us."

[Guest]

josh sat himself down and calmed himself.of the anticipation of killing the surrounding'yes you are right sorry" josh though for a moment "i could fly up and look for a boat if that will help. maybe if i find one we can get out of this place sooner rather then later'

[Grand_Finale 529]

"Yeas, I think the pegasi should locate a boat before anything, then we can make our way over there" she said, looking at The ponies who had wings. "Does that work for you guys?" she says, hoping for a good answer. "hopefully a boat wont be too far away, I think as soon as one is located we need to get their as fast as we can"

[Guest]

without waiting josh walked towards a door in the cart and opened it. locking it behind him he flew up and into the sky looking around seeing a dock close by was a good sign but there was many trotters between them and the docks. he flew back into the carraige frowning at what he saw

[Geek0zoid 1,468]

Stephan ran the train to the city, but not far enough to the city to the point where trotters can hear it. When he got there, he re-entered the train. He was breathless and placed one of his hooves against the wall. "You'll never know how much trouble I went through getting us here." Stephan said.

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

Fire Horn went to the front of the train to check the engine, as he suspected, the engine was busted, the magic must have blown it or something.
"Engine's done, no way we're getting back to Canterlot." Fire Horn said, the only way forward is to Bruchellia. "Josh, you got eyes onto a boat?"

[Guest]

josh heard his name and looked over towards fire horn "three boats two small.speed boats and a bid yacht probably not fast but will be better to.survive in just one problem" he pointed a hoof at the trotters collecting outside "they are in the way and we will need to move them"

"Leave them to me and Zeta." Stephan took out his electric rods and made them into a double-edged boa staff. "This should be fun!" Stephan opened up the door and jumped out of the train. He runs up to the trotters and starts taking out the hoard, making sure he's quick about it.

josh grinned and stared at everyone in the train "iwill stay with you guys if anything gets close i will get it" he pulled out the scythe extended the blade and grinned a sickly smile before jumpimg.out and slicing off the head of the nearest trotter while waiting for the others

[Grand_Finale 529]

Grand followed behind the two, staying in the path that was created. "I can see the boat!" said grand as she hurried to the dock while trotters were reaching for them in all directions. They would have to be quick before the path fills up with trotters again. "keep going boys,weve almost got it!"
