@Pat.Rio.T., @Miss Reaper, @Astral Legend, *Cant type in Agents name, my keyboard doesnt have that mark for some reason...*

 

Drakk was really unsure what to do, having part of his mind saying he should just leave. But he couldnt just leave them hanging there while their friend was in trouble.

He noticed another pony come up and ask the robotic colt was was going on, just like i asked when i came up.

Drakk didnt want to answer his question, as it was specifically to the robot, so he just looked at the door, then he noticed the door slightly open and a ghostly figure stand inside. It looked familiar to one of the spells he had used while he was still training in his mountain, so he realised that another unicorn who is undoubtly skilled in magic also wanted to check this out. Not wanting to mention the unicorn, he whispered to the others:

 

"Uh, i think she opened the door..."

 

Drakk quickly realised this could be an opportunity to see through her soul and see whats wrong, but not wanting to rush in, he stood his ground seeing what the others reaction would be. He got curious about the unicorn however, so he used a spell to see living beings around him, and their aura. He tried to cast the spell in a way they didnt notice his horn go off, but it seemed he failed that, as his eyes went white and started glowing.However, the spell worked. He noticed the presence of the ponies beside him, the one in the house, but he could also sense a presence from another pony, more specifically, a unicorn, sleeping around the corner to the house.

Drakk tried to reach his mind telepathically, but he got scared it would make him look weird, using magic in the middle of this.So he quickly stopped using his horn and tried to come up with an excuse for using it.

 

"Uh, sorry. I just wanted to...Uh...Check if my pet at home is allright!"

 

Said Drakk rather quickly, then realising that he didnt even have a home. But as he was a stranger to these ponies, they couldnt know, so he went along with it as he couldnt take back what he had already said.

Galatea was dumbfounded when the ghostly figure appeared before her; all she could do was stare at him with wide eyes. It was unclear whether or not his words even registered with her at all, for her expression didn't change for the entire time that he was there. Even after the ghost faded away, Galatea was frozen in shock.

 

What was that... A ghost? she asked herself. But ghosts aren't real... are they? Maybe I'm going insane... No, he was here, and he did something! Galatea's thoughts continued to race as she tried to figure out what exactly just happened.

 

Meanwhile, Nano was faced with yet another asking what was happening. Nano was beginning to grow weary of all these ponies; the only ones he had wanted here in the first place were Patterson and River. He wasn't even sure how Galatea would react to the strangers. But all the same, he answered, "My creator, Galatea, has locked herself inside for reasons known only to her..." He didn't feel like saying much more, so he left it at that.

 

His ears then perked when he heard the door handle turn, and his gaze snapped to the door at once. "Galatea?" He paused for several moments, waiting to see if she would open the door the rest of the way - that is, having assumed she was the one that had performed the action in the first place. When nothing else happened, he turned the door handle himself and pushed the door open.

 

The robot colt saw Galatea sitting there, still looking somewhat dumbfounded. "Galatea!" he exclaimed happily, running inside and to her at once. Less than a moment after, he was bombarding her with questions "What happened? Is everything alright? Why did you lock yourself inside here? And, your coat seems a little... duller? What happened to your eyes? Galatea, I - "

 

He was interrupted quite abruptly as Galatea smacked him across the face. Nano stumbled backwards, holding a hoof to his cheek as he looked at her in confusion. "G-Galatea... Why...?" he asked quietly, tears forming in his eyes.

 

"You stupid robot!" Galatea cried. "I told you time after time to leave me alone! What part of that couldn't you understand?! Why do you even want to help me? Look at me! I'm a train wreck! I... I..." The mare bit her lip, feeling tears welling in her own eyes.

@@Miss Reaper,

 

Once Raze got a good look at the mare that had caused all of this, it became clear to him. Dull, gray mane, depressed mood, dreary eyes, and an overall feeling of gloom surrounding her.

 

"Hmph," Raze said as he stepped a bit closer to get a better look. "You, my friend, are in a very bad situation," he said to the mare. "Looks like a certain draconequus is out wreaking havoc again..."

Lightwing was walking through Cloudsdale,with an anger of a thousand ponies...

"I don't want to be angry...BUT I AM!!"

She screamed to nowhere,and then started to see herself on a pool of water

"I shouldn't be on that way...It doesn't"

On that moment,her extreme anger turned into total sadness,like if she wasn't angry...

"Better to end this suffering..."

She walked to the limits of Cloudsdale,and then she threw herself to the void,hopong that she could end her misserable existence...

"People will be happier without me..."

She was going down through the sky,with her wings folded,to not even try to fly,until she crashed on a tree,and,surpringsly,she survived

"I'm alive,but,why..."

The sound of her fall was so strong that it could be hear on a mile...

@Miss Reaper, 

 

Patterson: "Because, Galatea..."

 

Patterson began for Nano, in response to her questions.

 

"...He cares for you... we care for you, so much so, that nothing, and no one, not even you will stop us from trying to help you in any way possible. And shutting yourself away from him and your friends forever is certainly not going to make you feel any better. Please Galatea, if no one else, let Nano help you. He is your creation after all."

'I can't believe I just said all that.'

 

He thought.

*This mention thing isn't working for me for some reason, so I'm just gonna post and hope some pony comes on and notices it :3*

Drakk looked at the other ponies, when he saw the robotic colt turn the door handle himself and rush to its creator, as Drakk had found out. Unsurprisingly, The robot started asking a bunch of questions to its creator, I think everypony would if their parents had began acting like this.What did surprise me however, was that Galatea had smacked him across the face, it was only then Drakk realized the gray color and the depressed and aura around the said pony. He immediately realized who was behind all this, a certain draconequus who made this pony the exact opposite of who she was before. Drakk took a good look in their eyes to see if there was anything, just a glimpse of her old self left in her soul, and that he did see, she still had the feeling that her friends wanted to help her, and so did she want to be helped. but it seems something is making her ignoring that feeling, that she has friends, as trying to replace it with the feeling that she's a nobody, and that no one likes her. Drakk tried to think of a way to turn her back to who she was, so he stumbled around trying to think, when he finally realized that there is a spell that could make it work, but it requires that she realizes she has friends who care for her, it also has a consequence, which can make the caster unconscious for a month, if the casters lucky, a week. But this is the only way he could come up with, of course there was another way, if she realized she had friends who wanted to help her, she could slowly start accepting that and become herself again but that would take a really long time. So Drakk had to choose between becoming unconscious and helping some strangers get their friend back, or simply just tell them to continue these shenanigans for a couple months and she might start to become herself again. but he really wanted to help to make up for a couple things he had not helped with in the past, so he decided to try and use the spell once Galatea had realized that she's not a nobody and that she has friends who care for her.So Drakk quickly told this to the nearest ponies, being River and Patterson, and informed them of his plan.

"Seeing as you two and Nano, I believe, are the only ones that know Galatea well while the other pony and I are strangers to her, you might be the only ones that can make her realize she has friends who care for her, if you make her remember I will be able to use the spell and turn her back, at a cost which only concerns me...I will stay out here and try to recite the spell while you ponies can make her realize what I told you earlier.Inform me when you think she has."

Said Drakk, while levitating a book out of his saddle bag and started looking for the spell.
But of course, while he was reading, he heard a sound like something has fallen from a distance.His curiosity wanted to check that out but he was currently in the middle of helping these ponies, but he remember that there was a certain unicorn which could help, which was just around the corner to this house. Drakk quickly used a spell to speak to him telepathically while he's sleeping, appearing in his dream.

"Sorry to disturb your slumber, but I wanted to tell you that there seems to be trouble about a mile from here, and seeing as your very skilled with magic, because you can use such spells as you did earlier to help us, and or that I thank you, but the sound of something falling was around Cloudsdale I believe, so i sense someone else needs help, but seing that we are currently busy with a mare, your the only one I can ask to check the fall out.And I am really thankful for you opening the door as it made things a lot easier"

Told Drakk while in the unicorns mind, but after speaking to him, Drakk continued looking for the spell.

@,@@Lightwing,  

 

Astral heard the unicorn talking to him in his dreams, he certainly heard the crash too while he was sleeping. Astral was too tired to move at the moment because he hasn't got the hang of the Astral Projection spell yet so it does take up a lot of energy to use to separate part of your main consciousness to a ghostly image of yourself. He opened his eyes, panting quite a bit and got up from the ground with his legs twitching a bit. "I can't rest yet, there's too many more that's in need of help. Since all of them are helping the mare, I shall tend to the rest with haste. Astral Recovery..." Astral had said in a quiet voice. A green, translucent light surrounded his body as he closed his eyes. It danced around him a few seconds before his body absorbed the light into itself bringing his body's health back at peak strength and which activated the special buff of being healed by the spell. Rings of the same green light had wrapped around his hooves, making his body feel lighter than a feather then disappeared. He didn't waste any time, he used his radar spell in order to find the next discorded pony. Now that his body was lighter, he could run much faster without expending much energy to do so for a short while. Although as he was running like the wind through the town toward the batpony, Astral closed his eyes to connect his consciousness to the unicorn who talked to him earlier and spoke in his mind. "You're welcome. The mare will come around, I'm sure she will. Give her my regards, although...I think I might've spooked her a bit with my ghostly form. Still, I wish you all the best of luck." Astral said to him then focused his efforts back on where the batpony crashed.

 

It didn't take Astral long to get there, the radar spell told him that the pony was in this very tree and he looked up to see Cloudsdale up in the sky. Also an unusual amount of pegasus flying around as well. He wondered what happened but he could guess seeing as how aggressively they were flying but he decided to get back to the present problem. He jumped up to a branch with ease, seeing the batpony there lying limply on a branch. Astral's eyes widened in surprise but quickly used telekinesis to get her out of the tree. Slowly, but surely. He didn't know if the batpony was hurt or not but falling from Cloudsdale is no easy fall even if you landed in a tree. Astral jumped out of the tree as soon as he put the batpony on the ground softly as he could. He landed beside her and sat down near her. "Hmm...She's not in any grave danger just yet but she's hurt bad. That was no small fall. Batponies, I heard, are a little more resilient to physical injury. Good, there's no telling what might've happened if she were a regular pegasus. Still, she's discorded. I doubt that she'd trust a complete stranger but...I'll just have to do what I can. It's just that...she looks like...I'm sure it's not the same mare I'm thinking of even though I only met her once and that was awkward...There I go rambling again, I better help her." Astral went ahead and used his Astral Recovery spell on the batpony, effectively bring her body back up to 100% again. He hoped still that he wasn't too late with it. "Hey, are you okay? ...Er, ah, well, how are you feeling? You should be okay now with the spell I just healed with you with. I just hope I wasn't late with it." Astral knew that she wasn't feeling well. She was discorded, after all. It's just that, he didn't really know how to talk to new ponies so he felt a little awkward trying to speak with her.

((OOC: To be honest, Drakk, I'd prefer if your character didn't find that spell. It whiffs of deus ex machina, which isn't really to my tastes - and besides, if Galatea is un-discorded this soon, the fun part will be over for me! (Yes, I actually enjoy playing discorded Galatea... What's wrong with me?) ))

 

Galatea looked at each of the ponies there, confusion apparent in her eyes. Why were these strangers here, and why were these unknown ponies, of all ponies, trying to help her? She could understand Nano, and River and Patterson as well... They knew her. But when did she suddenly become so important as to warrant the help of complete strangers?

 

She was still convinced that she didn't deserve it. She didn't deserve the help of those closest to her - she didn't deserve such a caring 'son' like Nano - let alone the aid of ponies that didn't even know her. And not only did she feel so lowly of herself, she felt so much pain, pain that she couldn't keep inside anymore. The pain of over a decade, the hurt she had buried so deeply within herself that she had almost forgotten about it... it came to her in this time, this gray illness, with a vengeance.

 

The mare registered the others' words, but she could hardly respond. She opened her mouth to speak, only for an anguished sob to escape as the tears in her eyes spilled down her cheeks. She crumpled into a pitiful heap of misery, crying. The sight moved Nano to tears as well, as he picked her up and hugged her tightly. She didn't move to either push him away or return the gesture; she was limp in his embrace, merely resigned to it as the tears continued to flow.

[Jack Baker 698]

@@Lightwing,

 

Suddenly, Raze heard yet another loud noise in the distance, almost as if something fell from the sky. Something heavy...

 

Ugh, what now? he thought as he silently walked away from all the commotion to where he thought he heard the noise. What he found was yet another pony, a pegasus, in the same state as the last.

 

Raze looked up. She must have fell from Cloudsdale... Then he looked at the pegasus, who seemed to be unconscious. Approaching her carefully, he tried to check for a pulse, putting a hoof to her neck to feel for a heartbeat.

*TBH, that was my idea all along, as i typed that he started looking for the spell, and not that he started reciting it.*

 

Drakk read through his spellbook looking for the spell, but he couldnt find it, no matter how hard he tried, he couldnt find the spell.Drakk became confused, as he had read the page containing that exact spell just yesterday when he was looking through his spellbook.Then Drakk saw a torn out page, and immediately realised who took it.Drakk closed his spellbook and put it in his saddlebag, knowing that he sadly couldnt do anymore, being the unsocial pony he is, only talented in one single thing, being magic.And since he couldnt help with that, he was pretty much useless here, because if this pony wouldnt listen to its creation, why would she listen to a complete stranger.Of course, he did want to help in anyway he could, but he simply couldnt.

 

"Sorry i couldnt be of any help..."

 

said Drakk quietly.

Drakk immediately realised something! Galatea couldnt speak, not to mention listen, to a stranger like Drakk, but maybe, just maybe, she would listen to the voice of someone she holds very dear?He could change his voice and speak to her telepathically with a simple spell he learned many years ago. He just had to find out who Galatea was very, very close with, and find out how their voice sounded like.Maybe there would be somepony she would be even closer with than Nano?To find out, Drakk started taking a good look through her eyes, into her soul, trying to find indication of anypony she would be really close with.

 

*Darn it, old computer isnt registering the "Mention" Option again...Sorry...*

 

*Btw, Miss Reaper, could you give the name of somepony Galatea could have liked more than Nano? .If not, just ignore what i said about it*

@Miss Reaper, 

 

Patterson hoped it was a good sign that Galatea was actually letting Nano touch her. Still, they didn't know what exactly she was getting all upset over, or why she is so...grey, in more ways than one. He noticed that some of the other ponies had left, and there was only one left((I think))

 

Patterson: 'Phew, that's a little better.' 

 

He thought. He wasn't sure what to do. Not wanting to interrupt Nano and Galatea, he simply stood awkwardly with River.

Nano cast a helpless glance around at the ponies still present. He wasn't sure what else he could do to help or comfort Galatea; all he could do for now was hold her, and that hardly seemed to help her feel better at all. It hurt him, seeing his mother in this miserable state - he could almost feel the same pain she did, which only made him feel worse.

 

Then he noticed Drakk approaching, his ears flicking up slightly in curiosity. Then the robot colt noticed that the stallion was... staring rather deeply into Galatea's dull eyes. Was this stallion perhaps doing something? Nano noticed that this pony was a unicorn - perhaps he was to attempt a spell of some sort. With that thought, he hesitantly released Galatea, propping her up into a sitting position, though he made sure to stay close by in case the pony attempted something with her he didn't like.

 

Looking into her eyes, Drakk would see her heartache in those dulled pools of gray. There was more than one reason she was in so much pain, but there was one thing above the rest: The terrible loss that she had never been able to bring herself to face. The death of her first love, the stallion she had met in high school and had wanted to spend the rest of her life with - only for him to be taken before his time.

 

That stallion's name was Chrome Spirit; a kind yet protective pegasus that had loved Galatea just as she had loved him.

[Lord Bradley 1,319]

Drakk kept looking into Galatea's eyes, forgetting about everything around him. But something unusual happened.Drakk felt despair and sorrow while staring into her soul, like he expected, but that wasn't the unusual thing. Drakk used to into other ponies eyes regularly to solve different problems, wether it be to identify somepony, or see if they knew somepony special or important, thus he knew how it felt.But this time, it was different...

 

Drakk ended up into her memories, in her younger days, when she went to a pony high school. He saw memories of when she was in hard times, when she as in trouble.Wether it be bullying, or something else.And there was always a stallion to help her through with those problems.There was a bunch of memories with Galatea and that stallion.Drakk had figured out that they might have liked eachother more than friends...But there was one specific memory which caught Drakks thoughts.In the memory, Galatea was standing with some other ponies, informing Galatea that a pony named 'Chrome Spirit' was found dead on the streets, when Drakk saw Galatea cry in the memory, he immediately realised that Chrome Spirit was the one in the other memories, with Galatea!

 

After Drakk saw that memory, no other memories would be present, the connection broke for some reason.It might have been because either Drakk or Galatea had blinked. Of course, Drakk got quite sad, seeing that this mare that had lost the love of her life, later got chosen by Discord to feel even more sorrow. But there was no time for wasting to feeling bad right now, because he has to help this mare as she is in bigger trouble right now.Anyways, the memories Drakk saw gave him an idea, if this pony were dead, Drakk could summon its spirit to talk to Galatea, as it would be easier than talking to her telepathically, and save Drakk coming up with something to ease Galatea's soul, as Drakk isnt really the right pony for that kind of thing. Drakk quickly went up to Nano after the connection broke...

 

"Er, Nano! I need you to..er..Do something.Would you perhaps try to keep Galatea calm?Just for enough time for me to cast a spell. Just try your to keep her calm, as it feels like she could go into either a rage, or depression at any time.Just try to keep her in the house while i try to ..er.. Summon something, or rather, somepony."Drakk whispered to Nano, trying not to make Galatea hear him.

 

Drakk quickly went outside, somewhere where he would not be seen by Galatea. He quickly levitated the spellbook out of his saddlebag and started looking for the spell which summons the spirits of the dead. He found it, but of course, it would take some minutes for him to conjure up the spirit.He simply started reciting the spell, hoping to conjure the spirit of Chrome Spirit quick enough.

 

"Heh, funny how the name of the pony's spirit im supposed to summon has 'Spirit' in his name"

 

Whispered Drakk to himself, right before starting to conjure the spirit.
