FoE PNP Group 9 Session 19

[17:25] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  *** PnP Group Number Nine: Session 19 ***
[17:27] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  It's been a while since we've heard from our heroes, but they've managed to stay alive. Holding on for dear life as life in New Bridle tries to pull them down into Tartarus. Life for our three combatants has been harsh and unrelenting, but they have managed to make it this far.
[17:32] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  That's not to say that the other members of our intrepid gang haven't been busy themselves, however. In the days following the previous arena's champion, Iron Sides, departure, it was declared that a new "King of the Ring" would be crowned tonight.
[17:35] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Broken into teams of three, fighters won and lost until the finals, where the risings stars Strifer, Desert_Eagle, and Cloudy_Breeze would square off against three seasoned pit veterans Caramel Sundae, Checkmate, and Cabin Fever.
[17:38] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  We join those three in the center ring, in front of hundreds of ponies cheering for blood and guts. Pulling out all the stops for their three best preformers, their sponsors had provided both sides with Spiked Pony Shoes, several doses of Med-X, and even a Sledgehammer and Dart Gun.
[17:48] * Cloudy_Breeze feels like she's back in basic training. She's pretty damn glad for her military training, even if it's been underused over the time she'd spent on the surface.
[17:50] * Desert_Eagle snorts, digging his hooves into the dirt. He had made it this far on plain luck and being quick on his feet, but that had been enough so far. He hoped it would still be enough to get him through this.
[17:52] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The ponies on the other side of the ring crack their necks and grin. Caramel Sundae hefts a baseball bat with a nail through it onto her shoulders while Checkmate flourishes a small dagger.
[17:53] * Strifer equips her ponyshoes with a gleeful grin on her lips, glaring hard at her opponents she spits at the ground. Cracking her neck she looks around and takes a deep breath whiles closing her eyes. This was it, the moment where they either win or die. She'd seen this before... Opening her eyes a confintent smirk drapes over her face as she goes into a battle stance.
[17:55] * Cloudy_Breeze puts her own ponyshoes on, as well, eyeing the other ponies.
[17:55] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  A referee pony floats a microphone along behind him as he trots leisurely through center ring. "Fillies and gentlecolts," he says with a smile, "This is the moment you've all been waiting for! The finals in New Bridle's twenty-ninth annual King of the Ring competition!" The crowd explodes, cheers for both sides erupting.
[17:55] * Desert_Eagle pulls out his Dart Gun!
[17:55] * Strifer shouts over the cheering. "Oi cunts! Give up before I have to hurt your pretty faces!"
[17:58] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Caramel Sundae looks Strifer over and snorts. "Why don't you come over here and we'll see who's the real cunt, cunt!"
[17:59] * Cloudy_Breeze flicks her tail, tensing, waiting...
[18:00] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The referee steps inbetween the two teams and chuckles. "Ladies, ladies. Save the fighting for when the bell rings. It should be any second now..." He says turning to face a large window somewhere above the stands. "The match starts in 5..."
[18:00] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  "4..." The crowd begins to chant.
[18:00] * Strifer 's grin grows even wider. She laughs a cackling laugh. "Alright.. But only cause you asked so fucking nicely!"
[18:00] * Desert_Eagle tenses.
[18:01] * Strifer scrapes a hoofclaw at the ground. Tensing her body, snorting.
[18:01] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  "3..."
[18:01] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  "2..."
[18:02] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  "1... Fight!" The referee says, retreating to the saftey of the air above the ring.
[18:11] * Cloudy_Breeze eyes the other combatants, sizing them up. She decides that the pegasus is probably going to be the least threatening, for now. That leaves the other two... and since one was about to meet the wrong end of Strifer's hooves, that leaves only one left for her. She goes in to tackle the pony with the club.
[18:19] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Cloudy slams into Cabin Fever, but the burly, club-weilding mare doesn't seem to notice much. She grunts a little and bites down on the grip of her club.
[18:21] * Cloudy_Breeze scowls slightly. Alright, plan B. She goes for a kick right to the mare's head.
[18:22] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Cloudy_Breeze whiffs pretty hard. The club-mare grins wickedly, with a dangerously good idea of what she's going to do.
[18:27] * Desert_Eagle turns his attentions to the knife-wielding pegasus, Checkmate.Dart Gun? Check. Terrible Unarmed skills? Check. Let's do this! He leaps forward, planting, and sending adart sailing her way.
[18:28] <Desert_Eagle> his*]
[18:33] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The dart catches Checkmate in the leg, and he promptly tips over and falls to the arena floor.
[18:33] * Desert_Eagle grins.
[18:37] * Desert_Eagle then proceedes to kick at the downed pegasus twice.
[18:39] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  While his first kick connects, through sheer bad luck, Desert_Eagle trips and falls right onto his dart gun.
[18:40] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Herp, his first kick doesn't connect*
[18:40] * Desert_Eagle invents a couple of new swear words.
[18:41] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Well, Desert_Eagle would, anyway, if he wasn't busy passing out.
[18:43] * Strifer stomps her hooves hard into the ground as the battle around her begins. She glares at Caramel and yells. "Comming for you now cunt!" She spits and charges towards the mare, putting her entire weight into the manouver she atempts to slam into the mare, giggling like a madmare as she charges forward.
[18:51] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Caramel grunts as Strifer slams into her too, but keeps her footing. She spits right into Strifer's face and lets loose a flurry of swings with her nail bat. "Take this, you bloody cunt!"
[18:53] * Strifer cackles as she slams into Caramel,  barely staying upright. This cunt was a tough one!
[19:00] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The nail-bat strikes Strifer three times, twice in important looking places on her head. Quite satisfied with her punishment, Caramel retreats slightly.
[19:02] * Strifer cries out and slumps down from the brutal beating to her head, her entire world is spinning and she shakes her head, blood pouring from her skull. "Fuck you bitch! I'll... I'll kill you slowly!" She sways slightly, raising up to glare at Carmel through a bloodstriped mane.
[19:04] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Caramel grins while Checkmate twitches, trying to resist the effects of Deagle's poison.
[19:06] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  He doesn't. Elsewhere in the rink, Cabin Fever does not look amused at Breezy's attempt to tackle her, and swings out with her mighty club twice.
[19:10] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  And she connects, smashing Breezy right in the ribs with her club.
[19:13] * Cloudy_Breeze grunts in pain. Yeah, that hurts a lot.
[19:19] * Grim ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[19:26] * Cloudy_Breeze snorts and whirls around, bucking the mare.
[19:29] * Cloudy_Breeze then prepares to defend herself from her opponent's blows.
[19:29] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Breezy whiffs hard again, but does succesfully assume a defensive stance without cocking that up.
[19:39] * Desert_Eagle groans, flipping up onto his hooves. Well, that was the clumsiest thing ever. He again tries to give two well-aimed kicks to the downed pegasus.
[19:43] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Checkmate groans a little as he's kicked, but remains paralyzed.
[19:48] * Strifer launches herself with a scream at Caramel, her head ringing and thumping as she moves in to strike at the mare, striking twice with her hoofclaws and follows that up with a atempt to disarm her opponent.
[19:55] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Caramel screams as she's gored by Strifer's ponyshoes, but holds on tight to her bat. She doesn't see too pleased with that, and strikes back with a pair of nail-bat attacks.
[19:59] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  With a little flourish, Caramel knocks Strifer upside the head with her board around her parry. With a satisfied grunt, she stands her ground. Checkmate snarls at Desert Eagle. He slowly rises to his hooves... and disappears.
[19:59] * Desert_Eagle blinks. "...Dafuq?"
[20:00] * Strifer groans as she is knocked about yet again, her entire world spinning.
[20:03] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Cabin Fever blinks rapidly before realizing that somepony had just tried to hit her. With a slight grunt, she rears up and swings at Breezy with her club.
[20:07] * Cloudy_Breeze was prepared for her swing, knocking the blow aside with her spiky hoof!
[20:08] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Cabin Fever blinks and looks at Breezy. "How that happen!" she says in a low grumble.
[20:10] * Cloudy_Breeze gives the mare a harsh glare and follows up with three swift kicks before once more returning to her defensive stance.
[20:14] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  All of Breezy's strike the dumbfounded mare, who seems more worried about the fact that she missed than the fact that she's bleeding now.
[20:20] * Spectre ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[20:20] * Strifer spits blood, glaring at Caramel.
[20:20] * Spectre ([email protected]) has left #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[20:25] * Desert_Eagle isn't quite sure where the fuck Checkmate went, but really doesn't care. He turns his attention to the mare that was attacking Strifer, and let loose a dart at her!
[20:28] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Caramel drops to the ground with a dart in her neck. "Fuuuuuuuuckin'.... turkey...."
[20:28] * Desert_Eagle grins. "Rip her to shreds Strifer!"
[20:30] * Strifer grins wider. "Good night, cunt!" She spits blood.
[20:31] * Desert_Eagle turns the Dart Gun towards Cabin Fever now, firing one at her too.
[20:32] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Cabin Fever seems almost unfazed, but eventually, she teeters on her hooves and falls down to the ground.
[20:33] * Desert_Eagle grins. "Give 'em hell!"
[20:35] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The referee pony rockets into the center of the ring, blowing his whistle loudly. With the microphone, he announces, "Attention combatants! The fighters Zephyr, Desert Eagle, and Wildflower are now inelligable to fight. They have been purchased, and will be removed from the fight immediately, which means, Team Triple Threat will move on to the victory Deathmatch!"
[20:37] * Strifer gawks. "WHAT?! NO! As fuck we are! This cunt is mine!" She screams and jumps towards Caramel to deliver the death blow.
[20:37] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Armed guards flood the arena to remove the currently unconscious (and invisible) Triple Threats. Meanwhile, Lollygag, followed by the two little fillies from Grapevine's cabin, enter the ring.
[20:37] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  [[ Redact Strifer being Strifer.]]
[20:38] * Desert_Eagle blinks. "Well, this's interestin'." He spots Lollygag and the foals. He waves. "Miss Lollygag!"
[20:39] * Cloudy_Breeze blinks. Purchased?
[20:39] * Lollygag smiles gently as she trots out into the arena, "Well, you three look terrible."
[20:40] * Desert_Eagle nods, pulling out his pair of Aviators and slipping them on. "Ah'd reckon we do." He chuckles.
[20:41] * Strifer groans and slumps, glaring towards Caramel she spits in her general direction as she is taken away. "That bitch was mine... " She flicks her non existant tail and trots up towards Lollygag. Her head spinning. Sitting down next to the others. "... Hey Smallstuff, how's the throat."
[20:43] * Lollygag smiles as she looks between the three of you, "Much better, Strifer, thank you. And don't worry, you'll get a chance to take it out on somepony once we're on our way."
[20:44] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  A guard trots up to Lollygag and taps her on the shoulder. "Ahem, Ms. It's been ordered by Mister Janus that your new property be properly examined and treated by one of our doctors. I'm here to escort the lot of you there."
[20:45] * Strifer pulls the box of Med-X over, gritting her teeth. "Thats.. Great, thought you where a gonner there for sure." She jabs herself with one of the needles, stashing the other three. Blinking her ears flick as she hears the word property. "Hang on a fuckign second. YOU bought us?!" She point a hoof towards Lollygag.
[20:46] * Cloudy_Breeze gives Lolly a questioning look. "Yer the one who... 'purchased' us?"
[20:46] * Desert_Eagle stars. "Say what now?"
[20:47] <Desert_Eagle> stares*]]
[20:48] * Lollygag smiles up at the guard and nods, "Of course, I appreciate Mr. Janus' thoroughness and care, please lead the way, sir." She turns her head to the party, still smiling, "Of course. I couldn't leave you all here, after all."
[20:51] * Cloudy_Breeze gives Strifer and Desert_Eagle a slightly uneasy look.
[20:51] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The guard exits the rink and leads the group to "Wishful Thinking's Practical and Ethical Medicinal Solutions."
[20:52] * Desert_Eagle frowns slightly at Breezy, sharing her unease.
[20:52] * Lollygag keeps smiling as she trots along after the guard, "So... Zepyr and Wildflower, huh?"
[20:52] * Strifer blinks slowly as the Med-X does its thing, a slight grin returning to her face, looking at Deagle and Breezy. "Well.. Fuck. We've been bought." Groaning she stands up, swaying slightly. Following the guard she trotts up next to Lollygag and hte fillies. "How the fuck did- huh? Who?"
[20:54] * Lollygag shrugs as best she can while walking, "That's what the announcer said, anyways. I think your real names are much better."
[20:56] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  As the group enters the building, a handsome stallion in a white coat emerges from a basement door and looks the group over. "Well hello there. You must be Lollygag's most recent purchases. Well, three of them anyway. I have the other two downstairs... If you'd like to see them, that is."
[20:56] * Desert_Eagle chuckles. "Ah shoulda' thought o' somethin' muhself, ah well."
[20:57] * Cloudy_Breeze doesn't say anything about the names, deciding to leave it at what Desert_Eagle commented, since there were lots of ears within hearing range.
[20:58] * Lollygag smiles to the doctor, "I'd love to, thank you, sir."
[20:58] * Strifer blinks. Looking between everypony. "What the fuck is going on here.. Smallstuff what the fuck did you even pay for us? Ugh, my head hurts from all this thinking." She says a she jabs a hoof at her forehead.
[20:59] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Gentle music wafts through the office. Sweetie Belle was singing something about beginning again. The guards collect the weapons before the doctor leads them into his examination room. Two beds are occupied. One bump covered in a sheet, the other by Wraith. Or... rather, half of her.
[21:01] * Wraith stares glumly as the ponies file in and waves half-heartedly
[21:01] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Wraith's body is almost recognizable. Heavily scarred and peeling, her skin is a ghastly pale. A small, barely functional cybernetic hoof is poorly attached to her shoulder socket. It seems that her right ear is completely missing as well. Most of her head is encased in gauze.
[21:02] * Desert_Eagle blinks. "How... is she still alive...?"
[21:02] * Lollygag taps hoof gently on the floor, "Don't worry about thinking right now, Strifer. There will be plenty of time to think later when you're not bleeding horribly." She looks over the sheet, and what was left of Wraith, before turning to the doctor, "I assume, since I paid for five ponies, that these two are going to survive?"
[21:03] * Strifer glares at the pony taking her weapons, but dosnt make a fuss. She gawks for a second before stumbles up to Wraith. "Fuck me... I thought you died, you're thougher then you look." She says with a slight grin and a small snort.
[21:03] <Wraith> or was it I think I'd like to go for a walk
[21:04] <Wraith> (shit wrong channel)
[21:04] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Doctor Wishful nods. "Absolutely. You have my needlework and pure dumb luck to thank for that." He says, answering both questions. He points to the lump, presumably Challenger. "Well, he's still out cold. Guess he couldn't handle the sedative."
[21:05] <Wraith> "Pretty sure I was clinically dead for a while." Her voice is scratchy and staticy, like she's talking through a PA system. course it's not that loud, but the comparison is still sound.
[21:05] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The doctor sighs, though. "Now... as for her... She needs help, and more help than I can give."
[21:05] * Cloudy_Breeze is pretty surprised Wraith is alive as well, considering she saw her get torn to pieces.
[21:07] * Strifer raises an eyebrow at Wraith. "Fuck me... Happy birthday?" She moves closer to look at the cybernetics. "Oh, that shit is pretty cool!" She is squinting her eyes pretty badly, her head spinning, flicking her ears she tries to get rid of the constant high pitch noise that seems to return now and again.
[21:08] * Lollygag giggles softly, "He's always been a sucker for sleep, even being nearly killed doesn't change that, huh. Well thank you, Doctor. I really do appreciate your work." She trots closer to look Wraith over.
[21:08] * Wraith wiggles her cyberleg, which screeches a little as the servos try and move the limb "May look cool but it's heavy as shit..."
[21:09] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  You wouldn't have to know a thing about medicine or cybernetics to know that this was a rushed hackjob, probably intended to do more harm than good. "I've found someone that can help, though."
[21:09] * Strifer pokes one of the cyberhooves. "Can you feel that?"
[21:10] * Wraith deadpans "I can feel it being moved but no."
[21:10] * Desert_Eagle watches Strifer's antics with mild amusement.
[21:11] * Strifer pokes it again. "Huh, well.. Fuck." She stretches and flicks her ears again. "Did you hear, we've been bought... By Lollygag." She says with a wide grin at Wraith as she moves over to Challengers bed.
[21:12] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Challenger is snoozing like a baby. It appears that he's been asleep for quite some time.
[21:12] * Lollygag nods, patting a hoof on Wraith's bed, "Well I'm glad you found a way to help her. How long do you think it will take?"
[21:12] * Wraith nods at Strifer
[21:13] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The Doctor says between clenched teeth, "Well... I can't say. How fast can you lot carry a stretcher to the Griffon Lands?"
[21:13] * Desert_Eagle blinks at this. "Griffon Lands?"
[21:13] * Strifer pokes Challenger aswell. "Hey Tincan, wake the fuck up!" She winces. "Owie... Ears.. Ringing..." She mutters between gritted teeth.
[21:14] * Lollygag smiles, "Well, I doubt I could personally, but fortunately... I just purchased some pegasi that should do just the trick for getting there fast."
[21:15] * Wraith snorts
[21:16] * Wraith blinks "Er, you don't actually intend to...make me do anything now that you...'own' me, do you?" If would could effect the material plane, the venom dripping from the word 'own' would have burned a hole through the floor.
[21:17] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  "Yeah... Griffon Lands. There's a griffon up there who is the undisputed master of cybernetics, named Gabriel. He can repair her limbs... but taking her up there on ponypower alone probably isn't an option..."
[21:17] * Strifer glances over at Lollygag.
[21:18] <Wraith> "If my gear is mostly intact...I should be able to pay him."
[21:18] <Wraith> (Also words* because i just noticed that)
[21:19] <Strifer> "Oh yeah! W- Ow... Where is our shit..?"
[21:19] * Desert_Eagle nods. "Yeah, ah
[21:19] * Lollygag smiles up at Wraith gently, "Of course not, Wraith. Nothing more than I would have asked of you before." She nods to the doctor, "So do you know how we could get there?"
[21:19] <Desert_Eagle> 'd like t' have somethin' that shoots an' has a scope."
[21:20] * Cloudy_Breeze would also like to know that as well. "Ah'd like mine back too, if ya please... Some of my things have some... sentimental value."
[21:21] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The doctor frowns a little. "Well, we think we could potentially secure you a ride... If we had the right parts... I don't suppose any of you are handy with mechanics, are you? As for your 'shit', we can give that back once you are all cleared to leave."
[21:22] * Desert_Eagle nods. "Thanks, an' ah'm decent with mechanical things an' th' like."
[21:23] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The doctor smiles at Deagle. "Really? Great! Here, why don't you all treat yourself to some Healing potion IVs, while I find out mechanic and tell him he's got some help." He says, dashing off and up the stairs.
[21:25] * Strifer blinks and stares after the doctor as he leaves. "Well.. " She grins. "Lets pick the place clean?"
[21:26] * Wraith frowns "Normally I would not be adverse to that, Strifer, but Wishful...For where he is, doesn't deserve that."
[21:27] * Lollygag nods, "There will be plenty of other places to pick clean, Strifer."
[21:27] * Cloudy_Breeze eyes Desert_Eagle, and adds, "Ah could probably help with that too." She hasn't seen him even so much as look at a wrench, so she's a bit iffy about his mechanical skills.
[21:28] * Strifer frowns but has  to much of a headache to argue. She mutters. "Fine..." Giving Challenger another jab. "..." She trotts off to one of the IV stands and... "Uh, how the hell does this thing work anyway?"
[21:29] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  It looks like you could -probably- just suck on the end of it, like a straw.
[21:29] * Strifer puts it in her mouth and sips away with a shrug.
[21:31] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  There's enough there to put you all back to full health, and likely cure Strifer's crippled head.
[21:31] * Desert_Eagle shrugs. "Sure."
[21:32] * Strifer sighs as her head wounds heal, sitting down she keeps sucking on the straw. Gesturing with a hoof towards Lollygag. "So.. Smallstuff, how the fuck did you go from being halfdead to have enough caps to buy the lot of us anyway?"
[21:34] * SpencerDespenser|GM ([email protected]) Quit ( Quit: See you ! )
[21:34] * SpencerDespenser|GM ([email protected]) has joined #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[21:34] * ChanServ sets mode +qo SpencerDespenser|GM SpencerDespenser|GM for #FruityRumpusAssholeFactory
[21:34] * Cloudy_Breeze joins Strifer with the healing stuff.
[21:36] <~SpencerDespenser|GM> The Doctor returns eventually with a scruffy looking mare in loose-fitting overalls. There's a socket wrench featured prominently on a ballcap, and on her butt. "So, which one of you gits is my new helper?" She asks, looking around at the group.
[21:36] * Lollygag smiles gently, "Well, my family has a lot of connections. It just so happens Janus wanted in on some of them, so I helped make an arrangement for him in exchange for my freedom." She waves a hoof in the air, "A little more dealing, and I arranged to buy you all to get you out."
[21:39] * Desert_Eagle raises a hoof. "Ah reckon tha'd be me."
[21:39] * Strifer blinks. "Connections huh.. Wait, Janus, as in the Manetana Reapers Janus, the shithead with a compensation issue?" She says with a frown.
[21:41] <Wraith> "The one that tore me in half, Janus?"
[21:41] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The mare trots over and examines Deagle with a careful eye. "You don't look like much help. Know anything about... cars?" She asks, grinning. The doctor nods. "Yeah, that Janus."
[21:42] * Wraith glowers
[21:42] <Wraith> "The only time I ever want to see him again is when I'm anally raping him with a grenade launcher."
[21:42] * Cloudy_Breeze doesn't say anything at first, but after a moment she trots over to the repairpony mare to interrupt. She glares at Desert_Eagle "Ah ain't ever seen you even look at a wrench! What's yer deal?"
[21:42] * Desert_Eagle frowns. "Nah, but ah've done muh fair share o' jury riggin' carts back up 'n Seaddle."
[21:43] * Strifer groans waving a hoof towards Wraith. "The one that fucking killed Wraith! Fuck, why did you go and make a deal with that  shit? What did he get anyway!"
[21:43] * Desert_Eagle lowers his Aviators, giving a poited glare at Breezy.
[21:45] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The repairpony looks between the two of them. She looks at Breezy and grins. "You, you look like a mare who knows her way around an engine block! Sorry slick, but carts ain't -nothing- like cars."
[21:47] * Lollygag shrugs a little, "Do forgive me for not knowing who everypony is automatically without ever meeting them. Anyways, he was the pony that arranged your freedom, that's just how it is. If you don't like it, that's too bad."
[21:47] * Desert_Eagle shoves his Aviators back up, nodding. "Don't mean ah can't be any help t' yah."
[21:48] * Cloudy_Breeze gives Desert_Eagle a derisive snort. "Ah've had a bit of prior experience with some pretty high tech machinery. Been a long time since ah've had a go at it, but ah can give it a shot!"
[21:48] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The repairpony hmmmms. "Aight, both of you then! This way! Hut!" she says, marching out the door.
[21:49] * Cloudy_Breeze follows!
[21:49] * Desert_Eagle trots after her.
[21:51] * Strifer groans. "He was also the pony who fucking got us in the mess in the first place.. " She stomps a hoof hard. "I fucking hate that fucker! Fuck! Prancing around thinking he's some bigshot." She snarls. Breathing heavily for a moment before returning to muttering and sucking the IV straw.
[21:51] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The Doctor looks over at Strifer. "So you know the other Manetana Reapers, huh?" The repairpony leads them to a small, cramped, dingy room in the back of the complex. The Rolling Pones' "Jumpin' Jack Flash" is blaring through a work radio. In the center of the makeshift garage is a massive, bulky, four wheeled automobile on a riser, keeping it about head height.
[21:51] * Lollygag turns between Strifer and Wraith, "He wanted caps, so that's what he's getting. And if you never want to see him again that's just fine, but as part of my deal, we're gonna be running errands for him sometimes. You don't have to like it, but you're gonna do it."
[21:52] * Wraith scowls
[21:52] * Desert_Eagle gives a low whislte.
[21:53] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The entire vehicle is painted a dull gray, with several bubbles decaled on the side. "Dinky's Deliveries" is written on the side near the bubbles. "Behold! My pride and joy!"
[21:53] * Cloudy_Breeze eyes it with a bit of interest
[21:54] <Desert_Eagle> "She's a beauty, tha's fer sure."
[21:56] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  "You'll never guess where I found her! Bottom of a ruddy lake! How crazy is that? Aaaaaaaanyway," She says, scooting underneath the car proper. "As you can see, these pipes keep dripping, no matter how hard I try to tighten these valves here. I think the alternator is shot, the headlights are trashed, and I don't even think it starts." She says, talking very quickly and pointing to a million things at once.
[21:57] * Strifer glares at Lollygag and glances to the doctor. "Fuck yeah, of course I know them! Noxious, fucking vicous pony likes to keep his victims alive, leaving them to do on their own, there is Avalance, griffin, not sure what she does but she's in there!.. Ah, Azores, he's their leader or something, I think. Sorceress, she's  a snipermare.. Ah,  And then there is Cunthead!... Why?"
[21:58] * Desert_Eagle blinks. "Whoa, one thing atta time." He chuckles. "Now, could yah weld those leaks in th' pipes yah think?"
[21:59] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The doctor grimaces. "Wha-what did you say? Y-you know y-you're not s-s-supposed to say his n-name..."
[22:01] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The repairpony shakes her head at Deagle. "Naw, tried that already! Damn things won't stay shut! Why don't you both come take a look at it? Keep it off you though, stuff stings like a bitch!"
[22:01] * Cloudy_Breeze listens to the overenthusiastic pony talk for a bit, but decides to trot over and take a closer look for herself.
[22:01] * Strifer grins slightly, rubbing a forehoof along her foreleg.. "Heh, oops? Cmon it's just a name!"
[22:02] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Wishful frowns slightly. "Well... not really... sometimes names can be more than just titles, Ms."
[22:02] * Desert_Eagle slides underneath, taking a look at, whatever the repairpony was talking about.
[22:03] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  There are three pipes that run from some important looking box into some important looking tank full of green fluid. The middle of them is leaking, seemingly right through the hose material.
[22:04] * Strifer smirks further. "Its not like saying Azores will kill somepony!" She stands up, finishing her IV stand. "Azores, Azores, Ay-zor-eezzz." Her grin growing a little for each time she says it. Suddenly she blinks as if she realised something "Or did you mean Noxious?"
[22:05] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Wishful thinking turns pale and stumbles into the corner, flopping onto an empty cot. He shivers slightly.
[22:05] * Desert_Eagle raises an eyebrow. "Breezy, yah know what this stuff is?"
[22:06] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Cloudy_Breeze has seen this -exact- problem before on a sky wagon. Carefully scanning around, she spots a small gem tucked up against the side of the fluid tank.
[22:07] * Strifer looks between Wishful and Wraith. "I  think I fucking broke him." She trots up to the doctor and pokes him. "Hey, stop that shit. Snap out of it!"
[22:07] * Lollygag sighs a little and puts her head up as close to Wraith's as she can, "Look... I'm sorry... This was all I could do..."
[22:08] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The Doctor twitches. "Kill... us... all..." her murmurs.
[22:10] * Strifer pokes Wishful agian. "Oi! Doc!" She looks over at Wrath and Lollygag. "I didn't do anything I swear!"
[22:11] <Wraith> "Names are a powerful thing, dear."
[22:11] * Wraith tries to nuzzles Lollygag "It's fine, Lolly."
[22:12] * Cloudy_Breeze hmms momentarily, before pointing out the gem. "Take that out. It's makin' the problem, ah'm pretty sure." She pauses a moment, thinking briefly. "Seen somethin' like this before... almost exactly."
[22:13] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The leak stops instantly as soon as the repairpony, who, judging by the tag on her overalls, is named "Torque Wrench", removes it. "Well shit! Thanks!"
[22:14] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Wraith finds something oddly familiar about Wishful Thinking's name. The more she thinks about it, the more it seems she's heard it before.
[22:14] * Wraith frowns some more. She'd had an itch at the back of her mind for almost her entire stay here after learning the ponies name "You know, I'm pretty sure I recognize wishful's name from somewhere..."
[22:16] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The Doctor bolts upright. "Ha ha! Great joke, Ms. Wraith! That's totally absurd. I'm almost certain that my name hasn't been anywhere at all." You wouldn't need a single point in your speech skill to know that he's lying.
[22:16] * Strifer takes a few steps back from Wishful, frowning. "I can't remember shit, probebly cause of the fucking four by two I took to the face earlier. Heh. " She says with a snort.
[22:16] * Wraith frowns "I /DO/ know you from somewhere."
[22:17] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Wishful shakes his head. "P-probably not..."
[22:17] * Lollygag tips her head a little, looking back and forth between the doctor and her two comrades, "Geeze, I'm out for a few days and everypony gets weird..."
[22:17] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  "I've just got one of those names, you know?"
[22:19] * Strifer moves up towards Wishful and pushes him up towards the corner, placing her own hooves on his shoulder area. Pinning him to the corner "You're fucking hiding sometthing!" She snarls.
[22:19] <Wraith> "Strifer no strifing!"
[22:19] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The doctor yelps. "S-sweet Luna! Let me go!"
[22:20] <Strifer> "Im about to Strife all over this mother fucker if he dosnt tell us what is wrong! Now tell us!"
[22:20] <Wraith> "Strifer no strifing, Strifer no strifing! there I said it three times now you have to back off!"
[22:20] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Wishful shakes his head rapidly. "N-nothing is wrong, p-please just put me down!"
[22:21] * Cloudy_Breeze is oblivious to what's happening in the clinic. She asks the repairpony, "Gonna give 'er a test run?"
[22:21] <Wraith> "Just calm down, Wishful. We all know you're hiding something, and you've helped me so much so regardless of what it is I'm not going to hold it against you, so at least come clean."
[22:21] * Lollygag blinks a little, "W-well that escalated fast. Strifer, don't kill him... he can't answer if you do."
[22:22] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The repairpony hmmms. "Well... there's still this alternater. Any a your friends got any chewing gum?"
[22:22] * Strifer glares at Wishful, glancing over at Lollygag and Wraith. She groans and releases Wishful. "Fuck!" She stomps a hoof and trots back a few steps, moving back and forth.
[22:22] * Cloudy_Breeze gives Desert_Eagle an odd look. "Not that ah know of..."
[22:23] * Desert_Eagle shakes his head. "Nnope."
[22:23] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The repairpony curses while Wishful slides to the floor. "You p-ponies are craaaaaaazy!"
[22:24] <Wraith> "Welcome to what I have to deal with lately." She smiles slightly at Wishful
[22:24] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  "Awwww, I've always wanted to fix it with some gum! Here, let me see that gem again. Do you want to pop the hood?" She asks Deagle.
[22:27] * Desert_Eagle shurgs. "Sure." He ducks around, trotting over to the hood and popping it.
[22:28] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Wishful frowns at Strifer. "I h-have nothing to hide... P-please don't hurt me... this is a place of healing."
[22:29] * Lollygag shakes her head, "Look... obviously something is going on here... if you're not being honest with us, things are just going to get worse and worse..."
[22:29] * Strifer stops pacing and sits down hard, glaring back at Wishful. What remains of her tail flicking back and forth and one of her ears drops. She shivers a little.
[22:31] * Wraith blinks "Place of healing...Hey Lollygag"
[22:31] <Wraith> "You were in Pier 37 longer than me and my group, what was the name of the clinic there?"
[22:32] * Desert_Eagle looks at the engine a minute. "Hey, ah think that gem yah got might fit int' this slot on th' alternator."
[22:33] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Torque Wrench smiles. "Well damn skippy! Hey yellow pony, slap that thing in there and let's light this candle!"
[22:33] * Lollygag shakes her head hard, "I don't remember... the only times we were there it was... there was a lot going on..."
[22:34] * Strifer twitches slightly as she stands up, sits down again, and brings out one of the med-x's she took from the arena.
[22:34] * Wraith frowns and scratches the fetlocks of her fleshy foreleg with her squeaky grindy cyberlimb. or tries to. she stratches too high at first. Anypony got some WD-40 to help with the screeching metal on metal?
[22:35] * Cloudy_Breeze gives the repairpony an odd look. 'yellow pony'? Really? She takes the gem and goes to fit it into the slot.
[22:35] * Desert_Eagle points at the slot with his wing. "Right 'n thar."
[22:36] * Strifer stabs her leg with the med-x. "Mmmmh.. Yes..." She mumbles. Closing her eyes and letting the numbness overtake her.
[22:37] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Wishful Thinking blanches. He holds his hooves in the air and grits his teeth. "Shit... shit... shit... shit. You got me."
[22:37] * Wraith looks over at Wishful "Wait you run the clinic there?"
[22:38] <Wraith> "Huh. Told you I recognized your name from somewhere."
[22:38] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  He shakes his head. "No. I... I used to. And I didn't just own it... I built it."
[22:39] <Wraith> "Well why'd you leave then?"
[22:40] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The repairpony slides into the driver seats and turns the key forcefully. With a buzz, a click, and some loud coughing noises, the engine roars to life. "Woooooooohoooooo! Hot damn! You lot did it!"
[22:40] * Strifer opens her eyes and grins slightly at Wishful Thinking. "Your healing booths need a attitude change." She snerks, giggling a little as she stands up on swaying hooves, rummaging through the clinic.
[22:40] * Desert_Eagle grins, slamming the hood closed and stepping back.
[22:41] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  The Doctor lowers his head. "I was... replaced..." The repair pony cuts the engine and grins. "Well fellas, it looks like we've got you a ride to Perch!"
[22:42] <Wraith> "Ah."
[22:42] * Strifer keeps going through the clinic. "Replaced? Sounds like you fucked up to me."
[22:42] * Cloudy_Breeze smiles slightly, relieved. She definitely didn't want to carry Wraith all the way to who knows where.
[22:43] * Lollygag blinks a few times, "Replaced? But..." She groans a scrubs a hoof over her face, "This is just way too much going on at once..."
[22:43] <Wraith> "I agree."
[22:43] <Wraith> "And I'll just leave it at that. After what you've done for me, wishful, I'm not going to pry any more."
[22:44] * Desert_Eagle high hoofs Breezy. "Well done."
[22:44] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  He sighs. He glares at Strifer with a lot of ire in his voice. "-Apparently-, some of my expriments regarding biological augmentations were deemed- Ah, fuck it. I'm sorry about all this shit... Just... take some potions and bandages for her and go...
[22:45] * Wraith snorts "I know the feeling."
[22:47] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  He waves a hoof lazily. "Ciao."
[22:49] * Strifer rummages a little further. "No Dash whatsofuckingever." Shaking her head. "What about him, is he safe to be moved aswell?" She point a hoof at Challenger.
[22:49] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Wishful nods. "Yeah, he's just unconscious from pain meds. He'll wake up... eventually."
[22:53] * Strifer looks around. "Well, thats fucking fantstic." She trotts up to Challengers bed, starting to pull him off it.. "Cmere you big lump..."
[22:54] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  Challenger is pretty damn heavy.
[22:55] * Strifer is a pretty strong and generaly angry mare. Draping challenger over her back she looks at Wraith and Lollygag, legs shaking slightly. "You two comming or what?"
[22:56] <Wraith> "Er...right." She looks at Wishful "Do you think I'll be able to support myself yet, Wishful?"
[22:57] <~SpencerDespenser|GM>  He shrugs. "To be safe, we'll put you in the car in the stretcher. They can take it around in the back... if they every get it working."
[22:58] <Wraith> "Alright."
[22:58] * Cloudy_Breeze is still talking with the repairpony. About repairpony stuff.
[22:58] * Strifer starts to make her way out of the clinic. "When you wake up Ill chase these pounds off you, fucking hell Tincan..." She mutters.
[22:59] * Lollygag nods to Wraith, "We'll go check and see how they're doing, then come back and get you as soon as we can."
[23:04] * Desert_Eagle grumbles. He never did get a high hoof from Breezy.
[23:04] <Desert_Eagle> "Shit girl, yah left me hangin'."
