Monkshood followed Ceres with as they navigated through the dwindling path . Shortly, they came to a clearing. She stopped only to ask him a question. He had no chance to react, nor any retort, but only curiosity as he stared at her with a blank gaze. She revealed a a tiny seed, as his eyes lifted with overwhelming interest.

 

Ceres dropped the seed into a patch of fresh earth. "What is she expecting to happen". Monkshood wondered with untold eagerness. He stood there waiting, shortly a flower appeared from the soil. He stared impressed at the flower, this was the perfect manipulation of the natural world. As the flower began to open as spores appeared from its petals, and once again his doubt returned as he cautiously backed away.

 

Still unsure what to say Monkshood stood still as Ceres described her plant to him in detail. Gazing only at the quickly encroaching plants he thought. "Whilst I'm not sure if what she is true, she has shown me her work in great detail, yet I must examine this more closely after everyone is asleep. If her story is truthful, she will of made a new friend".

 

Swinging his head back in the direction of Ceres, Monkshood with a sense of jubilation in his voice told her. "Let us return to camp Ceres. I'm sure we are missed there by the others, but before we depart I would like to meet up with you again. I cannot tell you when, but I will be able to soon". He turned back towards the trail hoping she would follow suit.

Ceres grinned.  "Sure, I'd like that."

Ceres followed Monkshood back to the camp.  To be honest, Ceres wasn't quite sure why she had the sudden urge to show off Viola.  But something told her that this was the right path to take, and Ceres always followed her intuition.  It had served her well in the past and never mis-guided her yet.

"Did I just say...?" Wish flushed pink through her light coat at her own mistake: and Parso's response. "Well I would!" She added defensively, trying to save face.

 

She looked around again: it really would have been nice to be able to fly: to be able to come up here and see this whenever she liked.

"Uhm, yeah I guess we should head back."

[ParsoOfEquestria 1,490]

@,

"oh no, I really do agree"

Parso let out a genuine smile, hoping she could see

"alright, back we go"

he then began to fly up until he was over the camp and slowly descended down to the ground

"end of the line, all passengers to exit the Pegasus, we hope you enjoyed your flight"

he laughed at his mock of public transport systems

Releasing her grip on Parso, Wish slipped to the ground and took a moment to grow accustomed to solid ground again. Her legs still felt a little uneasy: despite not having really done anything with them.

 

"Thanks, that was... really fun!" She said to Parso despite looking anywhere but directly at him.

[ParsoOfEquestria 1,490]

@,

"yeah....maybe we can fly around another time?"

Parso looked a little uneasy, he wasn't sure what context he meant or how Wish took the context of it

'I'd really like to see her again, but, I dunno. I dunno if Wish would see that in me. I really should spend some more time with her'

@@ParsoOfEquestria,

 

"Sure! I'd like that."

 

It had been fun - she wouldn't trade the adventure and excitement of exploring on the ground for anything at all but maybe another flight would be nice sometime: she had certainly enjoyed it this time at any rate.

 

"If its not too much trouble, that is."

[dedacct6 2,591]

Pelate trotted out of the lodge and found Parso and Wish on the ground again. "Hi, how was your flight?" Pelate asked the two, Pelate was out watching them fly the while time, just so he's there if anything g happens, and because he just wanted to be there with his friends.

"It was great! I mean, I wouldn't give up the ground for it but I could see so many places to explore!" Wish said, looking up at the sky and back to Pelate, finally feeling fully stable on her hooves again. "I can't wait to see what I can find out and about around here now."

Suddenly, in the thick woods behind the campsite, a faint rustling could be heard. A few moments later, the sounds of a female's whispering voice caught up with the rustles.

A lone mare stepped out from the undergrowth. She wore a thin, unkempt layer of dirt over most of her slender body. Her hair was thick, matted, and a simply unattractive mossy color. Her coat, the yellow of the inside of an apple. It was kinda hard to tell if that was the way she usually looked - the dirt she wore was distracting and unevenly coated, giving her a slightly patchy appearance. 

Her face was just as matted with dirt as the rest of her was, yet, if one looked carefully, they might spot the underlying beauty of the mare. Her eyes, as deep a red as the crystalline rose she wore behind her ear, were bright with intelligence and curiosity. She pulled a sheet of paper out of the satchel that dangled around her neck, and examined it closely. 

 

"I'm late, aren't I?" she murmured, seemingly to herself, as she looked from the paper in her hoof to around the clearing, spotting signs that ponies were already here. And, quite peculiarly, the trees surrounding seemed to rustle in answer to her question.

If there were any ponies in the clearing, she didn't seem to notice them, or at least, not pay them any attention.
I don't know if anypony's there, so... Approach me, plz.)

"yeah, it wasn't too bad, the wind wasn't a major drama, only needed to take a break once, I'm sure Wish got the whole area covered by now"

he chuckled as he walked alongside his friends

"by the way, Pelate, any Idea where the other ponies had gallivanted off to?"

(Well since I'm alone, I might as well post)

Blazing, thinking Sunny wasn't coming, decided to return to his original plan of running away. He walked towards the edge of the forest, but ended up bumping into somepony. "O-oh, sorry about that." He said nervously. No! I was so close! He thought.

The pony stumbled slightly, but otherwise seemed completely unfazed by the fact that this colt had nearly bulldozed over her in his flight. She simply gazed at him thoughtfully. "It's no problem," she said. Her voice was soft, like that of the singing grass on a windy plain. "Are you okay?" she asked, looking at the colt critically.

"I'm fine." Blazing said simply. "I was considering leaving soon, but other than that I'm fine." He explained. He felt like an idiot almost immediately afterwards, but it wasn't that big of a problem, seeing as she wasn't going to do anything about it, hopefully.

Eve stared at him for a solid five more seconds, as if contemplating him, before saying, "Well, alright, then." She nodded courteously at him, then looked around. "This definitely is the campsite, then," she said, apparently to herself. Her ears flicked, and then, as if holding a conversation with someone she alone could hear, murmured, "Well, yeah, but then why's nopony here?"

"Hmmmm, I don't know, a guy I know, Monkshood, I have no clue where he went, same for Ceres...I don't know, they'll be back later." Pelate explained. "Every pony regroups at 8:00 at night, around the camp fire, it's alright easy way to round every pony up before bed which lights out is at 10:00." The gray Pegasus explained.

"At eight? But..." 
 
There wouldn't be time to explore like that... not out on her own! Not unless she waited until 'lights out'...
 
'I guess thats the plan then!' She thought and smiled to herself absently at the plan: realizing that she probably looked like a fool smiling for no reason she quickly changed the subject. "So... Monkshood? Is he the guy Ceres went off with?"

"Are you talking to me?" Blazing asked, hearing the mare ask some sort of question that he couldn't quite understand. Who else would she be talking to? It's kinda obvious that she's talking to me... He thought. He had to ask anyway though, just to make sure he was right.

Prelates head tilts in question at her changing facial expressions "uhh, oh yea!" Pelates head perked up "yea they went somewhere to do done tying but I don't know what" the gray Pegasus shrugs at that last thought "guess their just talking about stuff whatever, might as well not care about it, their fine." He says with no expression.

"Oh?" Eve looked around, and for some reason, she seemed slightly embarrassed as she said, "Oh, no. Sorry." 
The rose she wore on her ear had closed up, when before, it had been widely open and amicable.

She stared at the colt for a second longer, then said, "I... I'm sorry. I'm just..." What she was, he never found out, as she changed tact quickly. "I'm Evergreen. Eve, most ponies call me. Who are you?"

Blazing noticed the rose change, but decided not to comment on it. "I'm Blazing Hoof, but a lot of ponies call me Blaze." He said. At first he didn't like getting called "Blaze", but after getting called it enough he finally just started to call himself that.

@,@@Descant,  

 

Ceres broke through the trees and brush, having lost Monkshood at some point in returning to camp.  Immediately in front of her were two ponies, an orange unicorn stallion and a pale yellow unicorn mare.  Ceres had seen the orange stallion off on his own at the campsite, but the mare was new.  Ceres mentally sighed and resigned to the fact that at some point, meeting them would be inevitable.  Ceres approached the pair, smiling and introduced herself.  

 

"Hello there, I've seen you around before," she said, indicating the stallion.  "But I haven't seen you."

 

Ceres nodded to the mare as she continued, "I'm Ceres.  What brings you out here?"

[The Elusive Cinder 1,328]

@,
 
"Yeah maybe." Wish responded absently - like Ceres had said, they would see each other later. She glanced back up at the sky and wondered about how long it might be before she could get some time to explore.
 
"Do you know what time it is now? I haven seen a clock or anything around since we arrived." She asked.

Pelate looks at the sun, it was setting with its beautiful fiery yellow-orange glow "I think it looks like its about...six? I'm not wearing my watch at the time, so yea. I'm just going to guess half past six." Pelate shrugs at that last thought. "We will be able to do more tomorrow, this is only the first day."

[Nomadic 210]

Monkshood returned to camp later then expected as Ceres had broken away from him whilst they were trekking back. Indifferent towards this change of events, this had actually given him a chance to gather a few supplies for the journey back to Viola later in the night.

 

Coming to the end of the trail, Monkshood noticed that the area was sparsely populated with plant-life and relatively empty. He looked for anyone. Glancing over the landscape, he found nopony anywhere. "Oh well, this is probably for the best. I've preparations I need to make if I wish to have a chance of finding Viola again. Regardless I probably can inform Pelate about his silly icebreaker later". He pondered with a slight grin on his face as he rushed back to the cabin.
