- >You sigh and glance over at Luna. She'd been silent for the last five minutes and looked like you murdered a box of puppies.
- >"Luna, you ok?" She gives a small smile. "We thank you for worrying about us."
- >You grunt and nod. "So, why does this town have no guards? We were swimming in them over at Canterlot."
- >She motions a hoof back at the town. "We commissioned a Barracks built after Canterlot was attacked."
- >You raise your only eyebrow. "Attacked? By who?"
- >She gave a Hmmm sound. "Changelings." She wouldn't give anything up would she?
- >You grunt and Sapper gives a happy shout as you finally reach the boutique.
- >You open the door and jerk your head, letting Luna, Derpy and Sapper in.
- >You almost close the door on Ranger but re-open it at the last second.
- >Rarity comes out of some side-room, greeting your group. "Hello everyp0ny, welcome to my boutique." She gives a bow to Luna.
- >No wonder she was sad, not even the heroes would act friendly with her. They just treated her like royalty, and that was it.
- >You give Luna a quick look before talking to Rarity. "I need more thread." You hold up the arm.
- >She smiles a smile you've only seen upon the smuggest of your kin. "I figured as much, so I worked all last night to make you a special thread."
- >You hear a Crash and Sapper comes running downstairs with a small white unicorn. "Damn kids.."
- >You look back at Rarity and she levitates the thread to you. "Thank you." You begrudgingly admit.
- >She then looks past you to Ranger. "Well, who are you, miss?" You snicker and turn to Luna.
- >She seemed to be enjoying Ranger's plight as well. "Luna, think you can sow me up?"
- >You toss the thread to her and she catches it with her magic. "Of course, we can do that."
- >You hold up you arm to the needed area and give a faint smile as the thread easily re-attaches your limb.
- >You sigh as the limb drops to your side, and your ever useful parasites begin the process of repair.
- >Sapper is waiting by the door, tapping her foot. "Come on Anon, I want to see our new home!"
- >You roll your eye.
- >Luna nods and magics a scarred Ranger out the door, away from Rarity who was trying to stick 'her' in a dress.
- >You step out of the boutique behind Luna and the entire world goes pink.
- >Wait....With one hand you pry Pinkie off your face, only to have the scent of soap slam into your senses.
- >Fuck this, you drop Pinkie and she lands flawlessly. "No more soap."
- >She glares at you. "No more bad words!" You give a half hearted nod.
- >Satisfied, She pulls a Sapper and just vanishes.
- >You shake your head and rush back to the group.
- >Through town your group went, thankfully dodging the market area.
- >After a bit you and the gang were standing in front of a small house. "Here we are, do you like it?"
- >Sapper doesn't give a response, instead flying Derpy through a open window. So much broken glass.
- >"Don't worry, I'll be ok after a muffin or two!" By the Titans....
- >Ranger nodded to Luna. "Thank you so much, we owe you." Luna offered him a nod in return.
- >"And you, Anon?" You shrug. "I don't need much, so it's more then enough."
- >She looks happy with herself, well until....
- >"Princess! Princess!" A young Pegasus in Guard armour comes rushing up to her.
- >"Yes? What do you need of us?" The Guard pants. "All the guards are bedridden."
- >Luna's eyes widen.
- >She jerks her head up. "Lead us to them." The Pegasus nods and takes off with Luna.
- >You cock your head to the side. More diseases? This is something you can look into.
- >You book it after the duo, keeping moderate pace for a heavily armored corpse.
- >You weave between trees and rocks, leap over fillies and bushes.
- >You manage to keep then in sight the entire time and you feel a bit of joy as they land in front of a large building.
- >The pegasus eyes you as you approach. "This area is off limits while the others remain sick."
- >Luna waves you inside, giving the Pegasus a stern look. "Anonymous shall be admitted under my authority."
- >The guard salutes and you follow him in.
- >As soon as your eyes greet the first guard, sprawled out on the floor your eye is examining him.
- >Luna is doing the same, though looking at everything.
- >She wouldn't understand sickness, death, or pain like one of your kind.
- >Luna moves on to another Guard and you drop to one knee in front of the one just examined.
- >His breathing is shallow, heart beat is growing fainter. He's in a death-coma.
- >Your brow furrows and you pull an eyelid open. Every vein in it is pitchblack.
- >you let the eyelid slide back down and start undoing the ponies armor.
- >A grimace graces your features as you stare at what is beneath.
- >The pony was decaying, his flesh going necrotic even before death.
- >Hunks of blackened flesh was visible from spots that fur had fallen out of.
- >This was beyond you.
- >You look up from the pony, up at the Pegasus. "When did this start?"
- >He shrugs. "Last night, they all woke up screaming and feeling bad, I came to find the Princess as soon as this started happening."
- >You check several other ponies and they're all in the same state. "Luna, you have any clues to this?"
- >She grimaces, a look of anger, fear, and uncertainty on her face. "Yes, though we wish we didn't, We must speak with my sister. Be careful."
- >She vanishes in a loud pop of dark purple magic.
- >The Pegasus is moving guards to beds, and you leave him to it. You were running various ideas through your head as to what happened.
- >The affliction matched only one disease in your mind, though barely.
- >The Plague of Undeath.
- >There's no way it could have been that, they didn't have such ailments here.
- >You starts back to the house, comparisons and the like running through like flesh beasts through your head.
- >The screaming made no sense though.
- >The only thing you can think of, is magic. Foul magic at that.
- >You finally reach the house, and with a sigh you open the door to insanity.
- >The smell of oil and alcohol fill the air.
- >Some half-finished gadget lies on the floor, and you step by it to enter into a kitchen.
- >Ranger is sitting there, bottles piled around him and his face planted in the table.
- >He was passed out drunk. How you envy him.
- >Fuck this gay Undeath.
- >You flex your arm as feeling slowly comes back, and it obeys, although with jerky movement.
- >You grab an open bottle of the alcohol off the table and sip it.
- >You can tell it's made by ponies, it's extremely sweet. Kind of like a sweet Honey mead.
- >You step out of the kitchen and scramble to hold onto your drink as Derpy nails you in the chest.
- >She smiles up at you. "Hi! I was going to make waffles, do you want one?"
- >Waffles? It's not even morning.
- >"Uhhh, no thank you." You take another sip.
- >Derpy stares at the drink. "Would you like a muffin instead?"
- >"Uhh, I prefer cupcakes, actually." Her eyes focus and give you a death glare.
- >"You dare commit heresy against the greatest of foods? I will destroy you..I will make you into the cupcakes you so love, I will.."
- >To door opens and Derpy's eyes go back to being Derped.
- >Sapper peers in, then dashes over to the counter. "Food!" she shouts, and Derpy flys over next to her.
- >By the Gods....what just happened...
- >You decide to say fuck it, and lay on a couch in the living room.
- >You relax and drain the rest of the drink, then drift off.
- >Hours go by, until a scream of fear awakens you..."Help me!"
