open Brightest Day

[Mr. Critical 434]

"Indeed. Though your presence is not odd to the locals, they are a bit wary of me. Don't say they aren't either. I can sense their fear. I am alien to them and lately aliens have been an issue to them."

Aaron gave a soft smile to the gryphon.

"It's as if I never left my home."

[~Sole~ 852]

Sole sighed "yeah, I guess your right. But so what if they're not comfortable around you yet? You saved them, they'll get use to you." He said with a shrug "so, have you always been feared like this? Even where you came from?" He asked curiously. Unlike most he wasn't the slightest bit scared or uncomfortable around Aaron.

[OG Blaze 269]

"You're back already what happened?"

Optyx bowed, "Other Lantern Corps showed up to provide aid against the man-hunters"

Ganthet used his ring to raise Optyx on his hooves, "You need not bow to me we are all equals here...Other Lanterns you day? What colors were they?"

Optyx nodded, "Yellow, red, and indigo"

Ganthets eyes opened wide, "An unlikely group, especially the red lantern"

"The man-hunters are cleared from that area and the other lanterns are taking care of it for now, may I speak to Saint Walker? My ring told me he was the first blue lantern"

"Right now he is assisting the Indigo Tribe in Sector 666 against Black Lanterns but he will be back soon I hope"

Optyx nodded

[Mr. Critical 434]

"Of couse. I have always been intimidating. More so since arrived in Equestria. Though it meant nothing to me, I just saw it as standard procedure in my life."
Aaron was looking the Gryphon over. Unlike the others, he wasn't afraid of him. The two hovered in the air, looking at the various ponies trying to get back to a normal life. Searching for loved ones that were still alive.

"So, what shall we do with the remaining manhunters? Its not like this is an over after that one day."

[~Sole~ 852]

Sole shrugged "watch for them I suppose, and stop them wherever they try to cause trouble. I won't let them repeat what they did here. But this is just the beginning, if we can get those other lanterns to work with us again we can save all of equestria from these damn manhunters." He said with a smile, happy to see at least some sense of normality was returning to ponyville.

[Mr. Critical 434]

"Maybe. But we can't just rush into this because of our numbers. We have to think this through. We should find the source and take that out. One swift precise  strike. End this once and for all. What say you?"
Aaron wanted these things out of his home and the sector.

[~Sole~ 852]

Sole smiled "sounds good. Now only if we could find the source. I don't know about you, but I have no idea where to start. Maybe the ring could help us find whoever did this..." He said, looking at his ring. "Well, it's a start. As long as we keep fighting these guys we'll find the source eventually, either that or just let it come to us." He said with a shrug

[Mr. Critical 434]

Aaron gave a nod. He looked over the town at the ponies. Some seemed happy, yet fear lingered in their hearts. He turned to look at the ruin that was Canterlot. The place where he resided.

"You can take care of things here right? I got to go... do some things."
Aaron began to take flight to the mountain city. Leaving a trail of yellow light.

[RAGESTAR 479]

Crimson stood silently in the wreckage of a house in Ponyville, there was a large hole in the ceiling where some manhunters must have crashed through. He was holding a small picture frame, the glass shattered from the impact. The picture was that of Crimson, standing next to a beautiful mare, and two small foals. Crimson looked down at the picture with a bittersweet smile, sad that he couldn't see his beloved family before they evacuated to a safer location, but happy that they survived. "I'll kick those shitheads assed for what they did to our house, my love...and I'll see all of you again when it's over...just wait for me..." he whispered.

[Mr. Critical 434]

Aaron landed in the ruins of Canterlot. Looking over his former home. The buildings were repairable, but the castle was missing large chunks of itself. A tower or two was toppled over. His home had seen better days. But hopefully it could be fixed. He looked over the wreckage to see if there was anything salvageable.

[Kulstor 254]

Photo Journal landed, making sure his hat and saddlebags were on straight and covering his horn and wings.  He was glad his trainers had seemed not to notice his being an earth pony with a horn and wings being odd, when during training his horn and then wings had been uncovered.  He had never heard of such a thing just happening to any pony.   He wondered how odd his life would become.  First he, a simple regular earth pony, went to some weird looking stary place, and when he got back where he was camping he found he had gotten some wings and a horn somehow.  Then this attack on Equistria happened and he had a ring come to him after he had dug himself out of some rubble & he had spent some time on some other planet with beings he never knew or suspected existed.   

 

Looking around at where he landed, he guessed things would get odder before they would get more ordinary.  He sighed as he shook his head, wondering what would happen next.  & him an ordinary earth pony.

[~Sole~ 852]

Sole didn't even have time to answer Aaron as he quickly flew away to take care of some personal business. "Damn... Wonder what he's in such a hurry about?" He mumbled, enforce simply shrugging and deciding he'd take a small flight around ponyville to both clear his head and patrol for more manhunters.

[Mr. Critical 434]

Aaron trudged through Canterlot. Looking at his former home. Many memories here, but none the less destroyed.

"Emotion detected."

'Oh, bollocks.' A damaged manhunter crashed through the buildings. Looks like one that got left behind. Aaron had no time for this. Reaching out, he formed a yellow hand and grabbed the damaged manhunter.(19) He squeezed it as if it was toothpaste, watching the complex circuitry crack and fly from cracks in the machine. Aaron dropped the trash and went on his way, heading to the castle. "Walking garbage."

[~Sole~ 852]

Sole got bored of patrolling ponyville and was about to rest on a cloud out of boredom, but right as he landed on one he heard a sound below him. "Emotion detected." He heard a robotic voice say, as the cloud exploded from a laser blast shot from underneath. As the dust settled sole could be seen floating in a shield (-1)(19) "piece of junk..." He muttered, as he looked down to spot a manhunter looking at him with an emotionless blank face as it prepared to attack again. Before it could sole picked it up with his ring and flung it into space like a ragdoll. "That takes care of that." He said with a smirk

[Kulstor 254]

Photo Journal started moving some large debree, thinking the first best way to rebuild would be to clear out the rubble.  As he was doing this he was thinking if perhaps he could use his green lantern abilities to reshape the rubble into the buildings, as close as they use to be.  He did have some pictures of some places and maybe architects could design new ones and some who were good artists may have made drawings or paintings of some buildings.  

 

He thought he saw a manhunter.  He jumped behind some debris to be sure.  Once he saw it was he picked up a small rock and a piece of board, and propelled them at a very high speed at the manhunter, going right through it.  He then used his ring to crush the remains of the manhunter into a rough ball shape & added it to a pile of debris.
