open Saving the Elements of Harmony

[Hive King 2,001]

An everfree worm sniffed the air, hunger flowing through its body. The everfree worm could best be described as a 20 ft long leech and it was a powerful predator. The creature caught the scent of blood. Perfect. It may be blind but it could smell blood....and fear

[Mr. Critical 434]

I went back into town to look for some food. thankfully all the guards who saw us were currently three feet under. let me see food, food, foo- ah ha! i found a few crates of apples. and not a soul could be seen. awesome. i love apples. i swiped a few and brought them back to our resting spot.

Derpy found the teams camp and flew down to greet them "hey team I got a package for you." Inside the box is a first aid kit and 6 hospital badges (the badge allows you to get free treatment at any hospital that the government pays for) and a note and of course a muffin.

 

"Dear team

What have you been doing I heared some crazy reports here in canterlot about a falling castle and some windagos and a demon pony sounds like things are crazy there. Anyway we discorvered that miss Pinkie Pie is actually doing quite well she somehow got all the guards in such a good mood they are have 24/7 parties over in Fillydaipa we never found the loyalty gem yet but that symbol I showed you we found out it means knowlage. Any that's all for now let me know what happened out there me and the guys here started a betting pool guessing what happened there.

[Mr. Critical 434]

I got back to camp and found Derpy. She gave me the letter and the badges. Pinkie was fine which eased me a bit. Igave derpy the muffin.

"Here..."

Ihanded them all each one apple.

"... everypony eat up. We need our strength. I suggest we sleep until morning. "

This was a hell of a day.

[dashian500 194]

Steel read the letter and gave derby the muffin "wait a sec derpy I'm going to write a letter " steel said he dug in his bag till he found paper and a quill and began to write

letter

"all that happened was the demon that lives in me took over if you wish to know more ask"

End letter

Steel handed it to derpy "thanks "

[Mr. Critical 434]

I made my way over to a tree. So Fillydelphia eh, getting real close to Baltimare. That god forsaken pile. My mind began to drift to my Child hood and those who... bah, forget them. My current goal is to rescue the elements. Itried to drift off to a semi-sleep. Resting yet remaining warry.

[The 2nd Mass 28]

The next morning Slipstream was the first up... or so she thought. She decided to go fly around a little to see if the guards had followed them to their hideout. She discovered Dash doing all sorts of tricks and flips directly above the camp. "Hey! What do you think you are doing?" Slipstream yelled at her. "I'm practicing" Dash said as she flew down to Slipstream. "I need to get my wings back into shape. They didn't let me fly when I was in there." "Your drawing attention to us." Slipstream replied "Guards could see that for miles, they could be on their way. Just to be safe we should wake the team, pack up and move... and next time, fly below the treeline."

[dashian500 194]

Steel was up doing his strict work out routine he had already ran 5k done 500 push ups and 500 sit ups and his blade drills he took flight and began doing flying drills the same ones done by the wonder bolts and he preformed them expertly he was sweating he heard split stream yelling but didn't care if any guards came he'd kill them

[Mr. Critical 434]

I a woke with a long yawn. I took a minute to gather my surroundings. Slipstream and dash were talking in the air, while Steel was... doing his thing. I got up from my tree, stretched a bit, walked around a bit. Our next destination was Fillydelphia, and i had enough bits for one last train ride for all of us. After that, were walking.

[The 2nd Mass 28]

Slipstream flew down to the group "Guys, we need to move. Dash was doing some stunts right above the camp." She was speaking in an annoyed tone directed at Dash "For all we know there could be guards on the way. Just to be safe we should leave as soon as possible."

[Mr. Critical 434]

(A little heads up, i changed my character a tad. Hes still the same... he just lives in a TARDIS now.)

 

I looked to Slipstream.

"Okay, pack up and lets move."

Need to get to the train before things get worse.

"If ya get tired, sleep on the train. Lets get out of here before things get reletively worse.

[dashian500 194]

Steel flew "there isn't split stream I checked now if you don't mind I'd like to finish my work out " steel said he turned to rainbow dash "would you mind doing flying drills with me I assume you want to get your wing strength back up " steel wanted to fly with dash because she was the best flyer and he could learn

[Mr. Critical 434]

Well... now i look like a fool. Damn. Isat back down, my back to a tree and the i heard a voice in my head.

hello Critic.

Hello lovely.

Going well i hope?

Weve got one rescued. and heading to the next.

I could have taken you and your friends, you know.

Too dangerous, and wheres the adventure in that?

Fine, but if you need me, give me a holler. Bye.

I always loved that sultry voice of hers.

[Hive King 2,001]

The worm tunneled through the ground until it was right below the camp of his food. But he wouldn't attack, not yet. They were too close together for an effective ambush. The worm poked its head out of the dirt to toss a rock. Hopefully, that would make one of them go and investigate the disturbance

[Mr. Critical 434]

What the... Theres... something in the bush... over there.

Nows not a time for Shatner.

When will it be. I got up from my spot and went to investigate my disturbance. And I found... nothing, absolutely nothing.

Huh, kinda anti-climatic.

Yeah, oh well. I made my way back to my tree to wait for the other. Maybe i should get the tickets in advance.

[Hive King 2,001]

@@Mr. Critical, 

The worm burst through the ground, grabbing Critical by the leg and dragging him into the ground. The worm hissed happily as the taste of flesh flooded his mouth. Still, the worm knew he had to work fast, lest the others wake up. The worm was no fool, taking on several ponies at once was idiotic

[dashian500 194]

Steel was already awake ((as well as split stream and dash)) steel moved quickly pulling out a hatchet and a dagger he threw the hatchet and his aim was true and it hit the worm In the center of its head but steel didn't stop there he flew and right at the worm he kicked the hatchet pushing it as deep as possible then he stabbed into the worm and flew along the body that he could see before taking to the air

[Hive King 2,001]

The worm let go, tunneling back into the ground. Like most primitive creatures, it didn't really have a brain, just a cluster of nerves which saved it from Steel's hatchet. The worm snarled as it hid underground, waiting to pounce on one of them as soon as they relaxed

[The 2nd Mass 28]

"Okay, now we should definitely move." said Slipstream "We can fly away or move in a group, from what I can tell those are all our options. Unless one of us has some sort of indestructible vehicle that we can use to escape the worm and teleport instantly to our next destination."

[dashian500 194]

Steel smiled "If we can create enough hate I can do a half shift and stay in control long enough to teleport us but if he gets to much anger he can overpower me and with no real threat to him I don't want to think about what he would do " steel said they had already sent spawn no use hiding it

[Mr. Critical 434]

(Going dark soon. Wont be back until tomorrow evening.)

 

I looked to the giant worm. Thing was huge. But weve handled worse.

"Well, got any plans fillies and gentle colts. Cause we seem to have our backs to a corner."

You could bring them home.

Out of the question, thing cou- 

What Ooze on my console?

I pondered her words. I didnt see any other choice.

"Guys, we need to run!"

[dashian500 194]

Steel nodded he was sad because the worm left before he could grab his hatchet now he only had one "where to though the worm can follow us even if we fly he could smell us teleporting would only work if we got miles away and that would take a very large amount of powerful magic " steel said

[Mr. Critical 434]

"Not a problem, follow me."

I began to sense where to find her she was close, but the worm ad an advantage. She was half a mile to the... east.

"Let's move!"

I began running in the direction of the mental pulse. It was pulling me closer. I ran for who know how long, then I came to it. Home.

"Here!"

She's somewhere in this cluster of trees. Unless...

[dashian500 194]

Steel followed "hello it can still smell us how did you miss that you're the one that thinks of everything " steel said as he put his dagger away he really missed his hatchet it was a very useful blade indeed and he had lost it in the head of a worm steel sighed

[Mr. Critical 434]

I began to sense my suroundings. She was definately close. I walked closer and closer and...

"Ouch."

I walked into a tree.

"Really a tree? Well, I guess it works."

I began to scan the tree for something, a hole an... anything. Som-

"AH HA! Salvation."

I pulled out my key and inserted it into a small crack and it began to glow a gold color.

"Guys. Welcome to my home."

The tree began to open into a door and presented the ponies with their means of transport.
