- 06[21:08] * +Calbeck blinks up at the glowing text overhead. "Presession whatnow?"
- 01[21:09] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As the stars align this fateful night, a strange wind blows offering much fright. Careful now must our Wasteland Wanderers tread, as deadly new foes loom with dread. Beckoning them with various treasures that loom, only faint whispers unheard warn them of their impending doom. Watch soon as our band of misfits trek and blunder, with jagged teeth that desire to tear each of their souls asunder...
- 01[21:12] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 ------------------------------------------- STAR GROUP PRESESSION NARRATIVE END -----------------------------------------------------
- 06[21:13] * +Calbeck cocks his head. "Oh."
- 12[21:22] * HedgeAFK is now known as Dust_Off
- 12[21:24] * Calbeck is now known as Roy_Calbeck
- 02[21:25] * Keen ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
- 12[21:27] * King_Pyrite is now known as Sagittis
- 03[21:28] * HoboPhone ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
- 01[21:29] <@NightmareBrony|GM> ------~~~~~~****** STAR GROUP NIGHTMARE NIGHT SESSION BEGINNING ******~~~~~~------
- 12[21:30] * HoboPhone is now known as Slag_Heap
- 06[21:30] * +Sour_Grape exists. They were listening to a tape, but now she gets the sense that something is amiss
- 07[21:30] * NightmareBrony|GM sets mode: +v Slag_Heap
- 01[21:32] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 We last left our Mareizona Irregulars deep inside the confines of the Steel Ranger controlled, 'Shinning Armor Post', speaking to the Senior Knight in charge, Vanilla Ice Cream Sprinkle. Coming to a tense moment when Sagittis was revealed in the teleportation spell, they were about to listen to the holotape they discovered from the wrecked caravan site, being given time to decide if they wish to assist the Steel Rangers in their cause.
- 06[21:33] * +Sagittis is still being looked at by that damned scribe. Damn scribe with his damn eyes... looking, staring, seeing... He could just pluck them out if the fucker didn't stop...
- 01[21:33] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Ammy stands with the group, as Senior Knight Icey looks expectantly to Dust_Off, prepared to let the leader of the band of misfits listen to the audio tape.
- 06[21:34] * +Slag_Heap stands around.
- 06[21:34] * +Roy_Calbeck seems attentive. This is probably a clever ruse.
- 01[21:35] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Indeed, that scribe kept staring at the zebra flufflecolt... /never blinking once/. As he eeriely continued to work on the power helmet. why did he keep staring?!
- 06[21:36] * +Dust_Off looks to the Scribe. They'd made excuse for Sagittis. She nods to Scribe, "Make it so."
- 06[21:36] * +Sour_Grape "So, play tha tape already."
- [21:36] <+Dust_Off> "I just said that..." She looks at the filly.
- 06[21:37] * +Sour_Grape blinks at Dust_Off, "We said it at the same time..."
- 06[21:37] * +Roy_Calbeck gazes down at the twitchy zebra colt with a look of concern. "You feelin' okay?"
- 06[21:38] * +Dust_Off scowls, "So. we. did...." She looks at the scribe, "Never
- [21:38] <+Dust_Off> mind, go ahead."
- 01[21:39] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Icey nods and gives the holotape to her elderly mare scribe that joined them earlier. The elderly scribe pulls out a strange box with two large speakers, placing the tape in and pressing a dirty button. Doing so a mare's gruff voice, which sounds strangely close to Guava Juice's own, save for it being noticeably more feminine speaks, "..oad of shit... Buncha grifters those sheath suckers... I told papi that we shuld be doin business with those fucks in Mercy and not Howti. 20% extra special perferred discount my fla--"
- 06[21:39] * +Sagittis looks up to Roy_Calbeck. "No. Now lets get this done so I can get to a fucking doctor."
- 06[21:40] * +Dust_Off glances sidelong at Sagittis, "Addiction specialist."
- 06[21:41] * +Sour_Grape "Fucking doctor." She snickers but says, "Is that all the tape says?"
- 01[21:43] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The rest of the mare's voice is cut off by the sudden sounds of explosions and gunfire with various whinnies in terror. Soon another voice, a male ones... which sounds oddly familiar shouts out, "Celestia flip me over and slap my flank raw, fucking ambush! Get to cover NOW!" for a few full minutes, there is the sound of heavy breathing of running and various tortured cries of pain and death go off on the tape. Breathing heavily in a terrified voice the mare that originally spoke, says, "Goddesses, shit! W-We've been hit! Soup Ladle's holdin em back, but what the /fuck/ is Peach Nectar doing?! Stupid cunt is one of our best shots, why is she-.."
- 06[21:43] * +Sagittis gives Dust_Off a death glair for her comment and goes back to the tape.
- 06[21:43] * +Dust_Off mumbles under breath, "Fucking doctors are gynecologists..."
- 02[21:44] * +Slag_Heap ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: Leaving)
- 06[21:44] * +Sour_Grape wonders if a death glair is like a death eclair. Delicious.
- 06[21:44] * +Sour_Grape waits to see if the tape is done
- 06[21:44] * +Roy_Calbeck listens to the tape intently.
- 01[21:45] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3The audio tape produces another crackling explosive sound, followed by a series of coughing fits. afterwards, male voices speak, "There she is... just like the profligate said she'd be. This will be a great blow to their morale and operations." Afterwards, a series of shrilled screams from the mare's voice can be heard, that soon are drowned out by blood gurgling. Not long after another deeper male voice speaks which can only be slightly heard, "...ll of them. Yes. Leave her body here... Find that other mare. /Do not kill her/." the voice says sternly before finally the tape ends.
- 06[21:46] * +Sour_Grape "Someone's a traaaitor~"
- [21:46] <+Roy_Calbeck> Eeeyup.
- 06[21:48] * +Sagittis narrows his eyes. "And we know who. Now, lets get back, string her up by her tail and be done with it."
- 01[21:48] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Icey winces then nods to the Scribe once more, making the older mare to take the tape back out and give it back to Dust_Off. The Senior Knight speaks, "I assume this was fairly relevant to your investigation?"
- 06[21:48] * +Sour_Grape "If this is like the 'gotcha' evidence. Thanks for the help Ma'am."
- 06[21:49] * +Dust_Off nods, "The plot thickens...and I'm not talking about Green eating eclairs..." She nods to Sprinkle, "It is" She looks at the others, "Let's keep this quiet until we get back.0
- 06[21:50] * +Sour_Grape nods, "My lips are seals." She wonders if she has any wonder glue to help that
- 01[21:50] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Icey says, "Then I assume you will all wish to return as soon as possible. I only ask that you all seriously consider our proposition, now that you have seen first hoof how sincere we are in our words."
- 06[21:51] * +Roy_Calbeck nods to Dusty. "Not sure it's a hundred percent conclusive anyways, but it's not likely our clients'll care, is it?"
- 06[21:52] * +Sagittis grumbles. "I'm not like Green." He looks up at the Ranger, then to Dust_Off. "We are getting the tape back, right?"
- 06[21:52] * +Sour_Grape nods at Icey, "You're plenty nice'n stuff. We'll keep it in mind for sure. Be nice ta murderize things for you after all this shit."
- 06[21:52] * +Dust_Off nods the Knight. "We will consider it, but we do have to see this through first. I know you might want the tech, but can we have the tape back? Our employer will want it."
- 06[21:53] * +Roy_Calbeck snorts, looking off to one side, but says nothing. He simply takes in the details of the room and its contents as best he can.
- [21:53] <+Dust_Off> ...(redact asking for it back.)
- 03[21:53] * HoboPhone ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
- 12[21:54] * HoboPhone is now known as Slag_Heap
- 07[21:54] * NightmareBrony|GM sets mode: +v Slag_Heap
- 06[21:54] * +Dust_Off totally bags the tape and looks around. "Anything anyone needs to do?"
- 01[21:55] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Icey stands off to the side, as the older scribe mare prepares to activate the teleport spell, motioning for the entire group to step on the teleport pad. Ammy complies, as Icey asks, "Then are you prepared to return?"
- 06[21:55] * +Roy_Calbeck shakes his head.
- 06[21:55] * +Roy_Calbeck does so at Dusty.
- 06[21:55] * +Sour_Grape heads for the teleport pad, "Nothing can do here, onward to victory and the fuckery that is Mareizona."
- 06[21:56] * +Roy_Calbeck steps onto the pad.
- 06[21:56] * +Roy_Calbeck points a hoof at Sour. "What she said."
- 06[21:56] * +Sagittis goes on the pad... hoping it really teleports, and that it does so to a safe place.
- 06[21:57] * +Dust_Off looks at the teleport pad, "You seriously use these?"
- 06[21:58] * +Slag_Heap looks skeptical, but keeps his stupid mouth shut.
- 01[21:58] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The Scribe raises an eyebrow in confusion and speaks, "It is the only way too focus the nexus ley-lines in being able to properly and safely teleport non-unicorns from location to the other ma'am."
- 06[21:58] * +Sour_Grape "What? I thought it was a really fast elevator..."
- 06[21:59] * +Dust_Off frowns, "I get splinched, my remaining parts will coalesce and be quite cross." She gets on a pad.
- 01[22:01] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The scribe mare rolls her eyes and replies, "Ma'am, I can personally assure you that teleportation pads only have a 4.99% inconvienent failure rate , with only a .01% lethal failure rate. It is almost completely non-lethal."
- 06[22:02] * +Sour_Grape shrugs. Talking to Sour Grape had a 5% lethal failure rate, so those were good odds
- 06[22:03] * +Slag_Heap 's player thinks about a Han Solo line, but decides not to use it.
- 06[22:03] * +Dust_Off scowls, "Those are direct effects lethality. Same on you, fudging statistics.0
- [22:04] <+Roy_Calbeck> "One of these days, I gotta figger out how t'do this stuff myself."
- 01[22:04] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Pressing the purple button on the wall, activates the pad, as it lights up and humms with a purple energy, enveloping the entire party and teleporting them back to the surface. With little else to do in the post, they make their way back to the large defacto local capital, Dune. Being greeted by the mixed gate guards as the Juice family armored wearing ones informing them all, that they are being expected.
- 03[22:04] * @Migas ([email protected]) has left #FalloutEquestriaPNP
- 06[22:04] * +Roy_Calbeck wibbles back into existence from a compact ball of timey-wimey...stuff.
- 01[22:05] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The group, is now in the middle of Dune itself. Wat do?
- 06[22:05] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around, assessing the tactical situation out of sheer habit.
- 06[22:05] * +Slag_Heap looks around for a bar.
- 06[22:05] * +Sagittis makes a b-line for that clynic.
- [22:05] <+Dust_Off> "I'd hope we were expected.." She looks around as well, Roy had good instincts if poor observational skills
- 06[22:06] * +Roy_Calbeck goes along with.
- [22:06] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Better get th' colt to a doc, so long as nothin's explodin' right now."
- 06[22:07] * +Dust_Off nods as she looks around, "Go with him, Gunny. Everyone else, we go to manor?"
- 06[22:08] * +Roy_Calbeck salutes and trots off after Sagittis. "Yes, ma'am."
- 06[22:08] * +Sour_Grape shrugs, "Wha'eva."
- 01[22:08] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The group finds that, even though it's well into the afternoon, the weather in the usually scorching desert seems... noticeably cooler... it was actually quite refreshing to not be assailed by hot dry winds. Sagittis makes his way to 'Saint Sucrose' Memorial Clinc', finding the receptionist mare inside... to his utter shock Sagittis sees his a /very/ familiar zebra stallion staring at him with a stern look of disapproval at one of the couches, behind a coffee table.
- 03[22:09] * DarcySupremest ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
- 07[22:09] * NightmareBrony|GM sets mode: +v DarcySupremest
- 06[22:10] * +Roy_Calbeck walks in after Sagi, notices the elder zebra's stare, then looks back at the colt. "Friend of yours?"
- 06[22:10] * +Slag_Heap looks at Dust. "Want me to come with?"
- 01[22:10] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck does not see a zebra stallion... he sees nopony at all... neither does anyone else.
- 06[22:10] * +Sagittis blinks and takes off his sunglasses. "Naneh... Naneh..." He takes a few steps back, rubbing his head with a hoof. "Just the chems."
- 01[22:10] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 When Sagittis blinks, the stallion disappears.
- 06[22:11] * +Roy_Calbeck completely redacts that last bit.
- 06[22:11] * +Dust_Off leads the rest of the group, she assumes towards the Juice's Manor. "Everyone when we play the tape don't jump to any accusations about a traitor. Let's hear what they say." She looks at Slag, "You're with us, correct? We going into an uncertain situation. I'd like all our possible assets."
- [22:11] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Oooookay..."
- 06[22:12] * +Sour_Grape "We're going to tell them about the Legion first right?"
- 06[22:12] * +Slag_Heap nods. "Aye ma'am." the lumbering hulk of a pony follows.
- 01[22:12] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap, decides to head to the closest bar, which is in the Juice district, a quaint little bar called, 'The mudpit', being a fairly run down bar. As he makes his way towards the door he spots down the road leading towards the entrance a familiar looking mare... looking at him... with sad and angry eyes, full of tears.
- 06[22:13] * +Slag_Heap was following Dust_Off...
- 06[22:13] * +Sagittis rubs his head and goes over to the counter, ringing a bell if there is one.
- 01[22:13] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Does not head to the bar, but he still sees the mare. As Dust_Off, Sour_Grape, and Ammy follow.
- 06[22:14] * +Roy_Calbeck follows along behind, watching over the fluffcolt.
- 06[22:14] * +Slag_Heap stares at the mare, stopping in his tracks.
- 06[22:15] * +Slag_Heap mumbles something under his breath
- 06[22:16] * +Slag_Heap looks at Dust. "Ma'am, I need to take a detour. I'll catch up." he detours and heads for the mare
- 01[22:16] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The mare turns and begins to walk away from the group Slag_Heap is with, the stallion has the strongest urge imaginable to follow this mare. Dust_Off, Sour_Grape, and Ammy definitely take notice, as Ammy asks out loud, "Where are you going?!"
- 12[22:17] * DarcySupremest is now known as Ammy
- 06[22:17] * +Slag_Heap looks back at Ammy. "That was my wife." he trots after the mate.
- 06[22:17] * +Dust_Off continues on, totally and dramatically oblivious to Slag_Heap's departure, "Yes, we'll tell them about the Legion of course." She dramatically gasps and looks back at Ammy and Slag.
- 01[22:17] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sagittis approaches the receptionist desk, the mare behind it looks up and gives a small smile speaking, "Welcome to Saint Sucrose's Memorial Clinic, how can we help you this day?"
- [22:17] <+Slag_Heap> (mare, auto correct)
- 06[22:18] * +Sour_Grape blinks, "Slag has a wife?"
- 06[22:18] * +Slag_Heap has left earshot. "Daisy! Wait!"
- 01[22:18] <@NightmareBrony|GM> As Slag_Heap rushes to catch up to the mare, he sees to his utter dismay and panic that she seemingly disappears, rounding the corner of a building... though there is no other ponies in sight and the road she rounded to is long... Where did she go?
- 06[22:18] * +Sagittis "I would like a treatment for a Rainboom acident, please."
- 06[22:19] * +Dust_Off looks at Grape, "I knew he had guns and could use them...that's all i cared about."
- 01[22:20] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The receptionist mare looks at Sagittis for a moment then nods and says, "Treatment for Rainboom is 600 caps, upfront, no layaways, or tabs."
- 06[22:20] * +Slag_Heap looks around. "Daisy?!" he calls, his voice full of panic and hope. He searches for her but finds nothing. He feels rage bubbling up inside him as he turns around and heads back to the group looking so very pissed.
- [22:20] <+Ammy> Ammy watches as Slag disappears around the corner with curiousity and slight concern "We'll see if we get a tearful reunion or not" she states looking around
- 06[22:21] * +Slag_Heap starts to catch up with the group, his hooves stomping into the ground.
- 06[22:22] * +Dust_Off frowns and looks at Slag, waiting. "What happened?"
- 06[22:22] * +Slag_Heap walks past. "Some joker needs their head caved in." he growls as he passes.
- 06[22:23] * +Sagittis blinks a few times. "But it was only three hundred last time we took a pony here."
- 06[22:23] * +Sour_Grape blinks at Slag_Heap, "I like the way that stalion thinks."
- [22:23] <+Sour_Grape> stallion
- 06[22:24] * +Slag_Heap lights the remaining part of his cigar and grumbles to himself.
- 06[22:24] * +Dust_Off looks after Slag, "So that wasn't your wife?"
- 01[22:25] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The receptionist raises an eyebrow and replies to Sagittis, "Different chems require different treatment, Rainboom is a highly addictive chem and very hard to treat. Also it's fairly rare to make."
- 06[22:25] * +Roy_Calbeck steps up to the counter. "Ma'am, he's with me. I'll cover his tab --- at th' family rate, thanks."
- 06[22:25] * +Ammy looks at Slag with concern but choosing not to voice it as to not worsen the situation
- 01[22:26] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The Receptionist shrugs slightly to Roy_Calbeck and presses a button on her counter, speaking, "Need a treatment for Rainboom." then looks at the handsome stallion expectantly.
- 06[22:26] * +Slag_Heap looks back at Dust, rage in his eyes. "It was. But a fucking illusion or some shit. Nopony disappears into thin air." he keeps walking. "Fucking self righteous unicorn illusionist cunts..." he mutters. He goes on to mutter about stomping heads and snapping horns.
- 06[22:27] * +Sagittis looks at Roy_Calbeck as if he had three heads. "Family?"
- [22:27] <+Roy_Calbeck> "He got hit with it while on family business. Five hundred even should cover it."
- 01[22:27] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Strangely enough for a brief moment, Roy actually kinda of looks like he does have three heads to Sagittis.
- 06[22:28] * +Roy_Calbeck turns his rightmost head towards the colt, leering for a moment before the skin tears and peels away, revealing an alien skull before it crumbles into dust.
- 01[22:28] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The Juice manor gates stand before Dust_Off, Sour_Grape, Slag_Heap, and Ammy, the guards make their rounds with the one behind the gate eyeing the groups.
- 06[22:29] * +Dust_Off frowns, "Mister Heap, why would someone go to that trouble?"
- 06[22:29] * +Slag_Heap shakes his head. "No. Fucking. Clue."
- 06[22:29] * +Sagittis shakes his head a groans.
- 01[22:31] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The receptionist shakes her head to Roy_Calbeck replying, "Sorry, but he's clearly not your son, unless you have proper proof of documentation you are his legally approved guardian." Soon younger Mare in a doctor's labcoat trots out into the receptionist area and looks at the white stallion for a moment, then looks at Sagittis and goes, "Hmmm... I assume this one needs treatment?"
- 06[22:31] * +Dust_Off eyes Slag_Heap for a moment, "We'll address this later. Let's go." Sue walks up to the bar.
- [22:31] <+Dust_Off> *barred gate.
- 06[22:31] * +Sour_Grape "Hey, 'Sup. We needa talk to the boss."
- 06[22:31] * +Ammy looks at Dust_Off "Ponies, Zebra's, Griffs, Donkeys...everyone is an asshole these days, probably a coping mechanism with such a messed up world
- 06[22:31] * +Roy_Calbeck snorts. "Not MY family, THE family. Nevermind." The unicorn digs into his packs, shoveling loads of bottlecaps onto the counter. "That's five hundred eighty six."
- 06[22:31] * +Slag_Heap grumbles and acknowledgment.
- 06[22:32] * +Roy_Calbeck then plunks several pre-war bits on top. "There."
- 01[22:32] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 MaryMc_Suerson has no need to be in this location presently, no matter how relevant this land is to her. Dust_Off sees the guard smile and says, "Good to see ya back, Guava's been waitin." then allows access into the manor.
- 01[22:33] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The receptionist mare looks unamused at Roy_Calbeck, as does the Doctor.
- [22:33] <+Dust_Off> We aren't going to be seeig Mary_McSuerson?
- 06[22:34] * +Sour_Grape walks into the manor.
- [22:34] <+Sour_Grape> "Ouch."
- 06[22:34] * +Dust_Off nods to the guard, "Thank you very much."
- 06[22:34] * +Sour_Grape uses the door instead
- 06[22:34] * +Sagittis gives Roy_Calbeck the bits back and puts down the remaining 14 caps.
- 06[22:34] * +Slag_Heap follows, puffing on his cigar.
- 06[22:34] * +Dust_Off shakes her head at the filly.
- 01[22:35] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 See the bits and caps, then the Receptionist begins to count them. Looking up afterwards, she nods to the Doctor, the Doctor telling Sagittis, "Now we have some pre-war medicine that will flush the physical componets out of your body, thus eliminating your physical dependancy for the chem. However, be warned, you will still be dealing with the psychological needs, understand son?"
- 06[22:36] * +Roy_Calbeck pushes Sagi's caps back. "Keep 'em, I said I got it."
- 01[22:37] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Once inside the manor, the guards inside instruct the four remaining group members not in the clinic to wait, as Guava Juice appears, clad in a silky loose, red bathrobe, though his .45 SMG still is slung at his side. Approaching Dust_Off first, he shifts his elderly wrinkled jaws and speaks out in his graveled surly tone, "So yer back. I take it ya founds me sumthin useful?"
- 06[22:38] * +Sagittis leers back at the doctor. "I don't have any psychological needs. I'm not some filthy junky."
- 06[22:39] * +Roy_Calbeck pokes Sagi's shoulder. "Ya wanna get treated, or have a debate with the buck?"
- 01[22:39] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The medical Doctor rolls her eyes to Sagittis and responds, "Denial is the first stage of mental addiction son." Turning her gaze to Roy_Calbeck she speaks, "If you intend on keeping him clean, you better watch him carefully." The mare then motions for Sagittis and/or Roy_Calbeck to follow for treatment.
- 06[22:39] * +Roy_Calbeck goes along.
- 06[22:40] * +Sagittis follows. If only these medical fuckers were replaceable, he would buck them across the room... with a cannon.
- 06[22:42] * +Dust_Off nods, "We checked out the site. It supports what we found here. Your caravan was hit by the Legion. They massacred everyone except your daughter, your niece and Mister Soup Laddle with two D's. All other remains were removed."
- 01[22:43] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis is flushed from the Rainboom from his system, as Roy_Calbeck observes the medical mare work. Leading them back out to the reception area, she speaks to the two, "Now then, the colt will still suffer some of the lingering after affects of the chem as it completely works it's way out of his body. I'd recommend a couple nights rest before doing anything strenous. And young colt." she stares at the zebra, "For your own health. Stay away from Rainboom for at least another 40 hours. Unless you want to feel your heart violently explode and die a painful death."
- 06[22:44] * +Sour_Grape nods with Dust_Off, "We found their camp and did a little shooty death, and got their offical orders. And a Holotape we think ya should listen ta."
- [22:45] <+Dust_Off> "Their orders were to weaken Dune by striking at caravans."
- 06[22:46] * +Roy_Calbeck nods to the doctor. "Thanks, ma'am."
- 06[22:46] * +Sagittis snorts and heads to the stairs where the traitor mare was being kept. "We may as well wait here. One of the guards likes me."
- 01[22:46] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice looks at between the two females speaking amongst the four group members, furrowing his wrinkled brow, "It tell ya anything ya didn't know already?"
- 06[22:47] * +Sour_Grape "Hard ta say, but it's relevent enough ya'd want ta listen ta it yourself."
- 06[22:47] * +Roy_Calbeck looks at Sagittis. "Let's get movin'. If we're lucky, we can be back at the manor before the next regional war breaks out."
- 06[22:47] * +Dust_Off produces the holotape, "Can you play it?"
- 06[22:48] * +Roy_Calbeck eyes the ceiling. "Ooooor we could have an extra-special chat with th' patient...?"
- 01[22:49] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice nods and says, "My da-" he stops for a brief moment, looking pained continuing, "Daughter had this sound recordin box thing in her room... she loved the damned thing... it was beat up pretty damn bad though... if ya can... fix it, I'd sure be appreciative."
- 06[22:49] * +Slag_Heap is still puffing his cigar
- 06[22:50] * +Dust_Off turns to Ammy, "Ammy here is our mechanical expert. Ammy, can you fix his daughter's recording device?"
- 06[22:51] * +Sagittis nods to Roy_Calbeck. "Why bother making the trek if we know they are coming here anyway?"
- 06[22:51] * +Roy_Calbeck nods back. "Okay, let's go see a horse about a traitor, then."
- 06[22:52] * +Roy_Calbeck heads up the stairs.
- 06[22:53] * +Ammy smiles and nods taking the device in her hooves inspecting it before she opened it up
- 01[22:54] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Sagittis and Roy_Calbeck head upstairs heading towards Peach Nectars room, as they reach the top of the stairs they note that the hallway... was strangely dimly lit... with the lights flickering... They both feel strangely unsettled being in the hallway.
- 06[22:55] * +Sagittis makes sure his weapons are loaded. "We don't want to let onto anything till the others get here... where are the guards?"
- [22:56] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Aww, CRAP." The unicorn lights his horn to show the way, then pulls his 5.56mm pistol out with his tail. For good measure, he makes sure his 10mm SMG is slung around his neck and ready to go at a moment's notice before looking back down the hall with a grimace. "This can't be good."
- [22:56] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Two guesses. Meatshield armorbuck point, or sneakycolt point? Call it."
- 01[22:56] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice orders one of his goons to bring the sound device and lets Ammy repairs the device effortlessly. The elderly city boss looks at the mare like she was some sort of wizard then says, "Very nice... I'll listen to it in a bit... I wanna know what you all think about this... who you might think is responsible."
- 01[22:57] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Roy_Calbeck looks away then back down the hallway he finds that Sagittis is inexplicibly gone!
- 06[22:57] * +Sour_Grape "The legion. They're tryin' disrupt Dune and cause a gang war I bet."
- 01[22:58] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis similarly gets no response from Roy_Calbeck...
- 06[22:58] * +Roy_Calbeck skitters to one side, pressing himself to the wall. "Shit...!"
- 06[22:58] * +Sagittis drops into sneak mode and scans arround.
- 06[22:59] * +Roy_Calbeck grumbles audibly, "Kid, you'd BETTER be stealthin' around right now... damn near gimme a heart attack like that!"
- 06[23:00] * +Slag_Heap scratches his sideburns and puffs his cigar. He makes a note to try and find some more.
- 01[23:00] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck canNOT find Sagittis as he presses up against the wall... where did the zebra go?! Sagittis finds as he looks around he is also alone...
- 06[23:00] * +Dust_Off looks at the stallion, "The tape is from your daughter. I thought you should be warned, it is her last moments. But a Legionnaire, probably the Decanus, mentions an informer a non-Legion pony."

- 01[23:02] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice takes the tape and looks at Dust_Off and Sour_Grape for a moment, frowning with a mixture of smoldering rage and despair. Nodding he says, "Course... those fucking... scum sucking shitfucks... Ya got an idea who's in wid em?"
- 06[23:03] * +Roy_Calbeck looks back down the hall, convinced the colt is just pulling his usual freaky zebra shit again. "Okay... fine. Let's do this." He slides down the hallway, keeping the wall on his left, and peeks into the first doorway he comes to.
- 06[23:03] * +Sour_Grape shakes her head, "Sorry, no."
- 06[23:04] * +Dust_Off shakes her head, "Nothing conclusive...but i have suspicions."
- 01[23:04] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck makes his way to the first door and sees the stain-glassed window... smeared with blood... the lighting flickering from what he can see in the window which is nothing... Sagittis swears he can hear Roy_Calbeck's voice from down the hallway.
- 02[23:05] * +Ammy ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
- 06[23:05] * +Sagittis sneaks down the hall twords Roy_Calbeck's voice.
- 01[23:05] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice nods to the two then looks closer at the other two group members, looking back to Dust_Off, he speaks, "Question for ya."
- 03[23:05] * AMARDA_ ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
- 06[23:06] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around the room briefly for a body and, if finding none, heads to the next room.
- 06[23:06] * +Dust_Off nods, "Go right ahead."
- 01[23:08] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Roy_Calbeck opens the door to the room he sees in the flickering lights a strange filly with her back turned to him... strangely the filly looks... familiar... though her back with it's cape is smeared with blood, her mane, slick and coated in it. At the same time Sagittis rounds a corner at the end of the hallway and sees down another smaller hall, with even less lighting a strange figure ahead of him... unfortunately he can't make the figure out from his location.
- 01[23:09] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice takes a breath and replies to Dust_Off, "Two questions actually... First... Where's dat one unicorn mare that wuz witcha, da one wit the gorgeous cans... Second... who... the fuck.... is Chrome fucking dome ovah there?"

- 06[23:09] * +Sagittis continues folowing the sound, saddle bit in his teeth.
- 02[23:10] * +Slag_Heap ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: Leaving)
- 12[23:10] * Hobo is now known as Slag_Heap
- 06[23:11] * +Roy_Calbeck trains his pistol on the filly with his tail. "Hey, you. Turn around slow."
- 06[23:11] * +Slag_Heap stays silent, still pissed. He didn't want to say anything that would get him shunned, so he lets Dust_Off do the talking.
- 06[23:12] * +Sour_Grape looks at Dust_Off to say 'I got this'
- 01[23:13] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis makes his way to the end of the hallway and sees to his absolute shock and terror that familiar zebra stallion he thought he saw downstairs... looking at him with such a look of disappointment. As Roy_Calbeck orders the filly to turn, she does so... and he can see to his horror that it's Sour Grape clutching at her neck, as it pours blood, the rest of the room a horrendous wreck... What the fuck was she doing there?! Sour_Grape's face is that of absolute fear, as she moves her lips in an attempt to speak... but no words come.
- 06[23:13] * +Dust_Off nods, "Thought this would come up. The gentleman with us is Mister Slag_Heap, our new door opener. If he can't pick, he can break or blow it down." She looks at Grape to continue.
- 06[23:13] * +Sour_Grape "Ah, yes, Green. She charged a Decanus and got a bullet in the brain. It was very sad..." she looks at Slag_Heap, "He's a new hire, very trust worthy. I think he's a mute."
- 06[23:14] * +Slag_Heap nods at the boss. He says nothing, instead just puffing on his cigar.
- 01[23:16] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice blinks at Sour_Grape and Dust_Off's explanations... stroking his chin with a hoof, he's silent for a moment until he finally speaks, "I see... sorry t'hear 'bout her. And as fer him... make sure he don't do nuthin stupid. Yous been pretty good, if not a little strange in this investigation... so I'm not gonna go off tha rails." sighing he looks at the recording device and says, "Go ahead and rest if ya need at the inn again. I'm gonna listen to this... once yer ready come back to me, so I can tell ya what to do next after I've had some time ta think."
- 06[23:17] * +Sagittis slinks back. "Damned doctors. Didn't fix anything..."
- 03[23:17] * Calbeck ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP

- [23:17] <+Calbeck> "Okay, asshole... show yerself. I'm not entirely unfamiliar with illusions."
- 06[23:18] * +Dust_Off nods, "Alright, I will explain my suspicions then. I'd like hear your uninfluenced opinion."
- 06[23:18] * +Sour_Grape nods at Dust_Off, "Word. Seeya later big cheese."
- 01[23:20] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The stallion speaks to Sagittis in a voice that is clear as day to the colt and speaks, "What are you doing colt? Falling so far already? How do you expect to prove yourself with such weakness?" Roy_Calbeck speaks but the supposed Sour_Grape before him, just falls down wimpering out, exactly in her voice, albeit completely strained from pain, "C-Cal... i-it... it hur-hurts..." her eyes begin to roll in the back of her head, as she starts convulsing.
- 02[23:20] * +Roy_Calbeck ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
- 06[23:23] * +Calbeck looks around the room for anything anypony could be hiding under or behind, stalking about for the illusionist he's positive is here somewhere. "Right now, lemme tell ya," he says to the room at large, "I'm hurtin' pretty bad. Hate to see this done to a kid. But see, me lettin' it hurt won't let me hurt YOU. Come out come out..."
- 06[23:24] * +Sagittis shakes his head. "No. I'm strong! I'm stronger than those the ponies are calling soldiers!" He puts his hoof to the missle launcher. "I killed /Enclave/!"
- 01[23:26] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice looks to Dust_Off and says, "I got strong suspicions, but before I get hasty, I wanna see and hear ev'rythin first. Can't jus'... make wild accusations wit' out hearin da proof foist."
- 06[23:26] * +Sour_Grape nods at Guva, "Seeya." She heads out the door and towards the inn.
- 06[23:27] * +Dust_Off nods, "Very wise, sir. We'll be waiting." She walks out with Sour_Grape.
- 06[23:28] * +Slag_Heap nods at the boss and follows Dust_Off and Sour_Grape
- 01[23:29] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The older zebra stallion frowns angrily and booms to Sagittis, "At /what cost/? You slaughter these fools, but you do so with aid of others. If you were /truly/ worthy to call yourself a member of our tribe, you would have done so yourself. As far as I see, I have no son..." Calbeck gets no response, besides Sour_Grape's tortured gurgles as her violent covulsing begins to slow, looking worse and worse with each passing moment... the stallion can't find anything... whoever was casting this 'spell' was either exceptionally skilled... or it wasn't an illusion at all...
- 01[23:31] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape, Dust_Off, Slag_Heap, and Ammy leave the manor and exit back into the streets. Noting that it was still in the late afternoon... that... breeze... was so cold considering it was so warm recently.
- 06[23:31] * +Sour_Grape shivers a little bit and pulls her cape closer with ehr wings, "Who turned off the sun..."
- 06[23:32] * +Calbeck makes a noise deep inside his throat. "Godsdammit..."
- 06[23:32] * +Dust_Off looks around, "Strange weather..." She flaps her wings for a moment and tucks them close.
- 06[23:32] * +Slag_Heap sighs. He stays quiet until they are away from the manor.
- 06[23:33] * +Calbeck does the only thing he can at this point: levitates a healing potion and floats it over, upending it on the filly's bloody wounds.
- 01[23:33] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Also strangely, the streets seem to be... largely vacant... considerbly less traffic then normal, as only scant ponies trot about... there even seems to be a lack of guard presence in the streets.
- 06[23:33] * +Sagittis shakes his head some more. "No, no, no. I still did it! You aren't real! You are hundreds of miles away!"
- 06[23:35] * +Sour_Grape looks around, "Must be inside cause'a tha cold..."
- 01[23:36] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Calbeck attempts to feed the potion, the lights turn off completely, same for Sagittis. The next thing Roy knows, he hears a male voice speak, "What the /fuck/ are you doing?" and he notices that he's standing over the mare Sagittis was being fondled by the past. The mare looks at the stallion bewildered, the room back to it's normal state. Sagittis blinks and suddenly the hallway is at it's normal illumination... seeing that he's staring at himself in a mirror...
- 06[23:36] * +Dust_Off looks around, "Something's off..." She looks up at the sky to see the sun, "Seems late for a shift changr.
- 06[23:36] * +Slag_Heap is still quiet.
- 01[23:37] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Also in the room where Peach Nectar Juice is, that Calbeck is in, are her other guards looking at him strangely, the mare herself included.
- 06[23:37] * +Calbeck looks around for the male voice, stepping away from the mare.
- 01[23:38] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The male voice belonged to the head of Peach Nectars security detail, the same stallion from before who is just looking at the handsome white stallion like he's lost his mind... had he?
- 06[23:38] * +Sagittis shakes his head and turns the mirror around if he can, dismounting it from the wall if need be.
- 01[23:38] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The mirror comes off easily, nothing behind it, save for a couple of nails embedded into the wall that keep the frame held up.
- 06[23:38] * +Calbeck caps the potion and floats it back into his pack. "Sorry. Touch of sun."
- 12[23:40] * Calbeck is now known as Roy_Calbeck
- 01[23:41] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard looks at Roy_Calbeck with his confused expression and says, "Right... you might wanna go lay down for a while bud. You kept mumbling to yourself then pulled that potion out and tried feeding it to her." he points to the security mare who was also summarily baffled.
- 06[23:42] * +Sagittis wipes his forehead and takes off his armor, setting it on his back.
- 01[23:42] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Ammy looks sort've at home, but does seem put off by Dust_Off's words as she speaks, "Indeed. It is quite strange for it to become suddenly so cool, no comrade?"
- 06[23:42] * +Roy_Calbeck shakes his head, then presses the back of his hoof to the forehead, just below his horn. "Been out in the wastes all day, *thought* I was gettin' a little goofy."
- 06[23:43] * +Roy_Calbeck takes out a bottle of water and slowly downs it. "Anyways... we're back t'see Peach Nectar Juice again. Just some followup on the investigation."
- 01[23:45] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The Security guard nods to Roy_Calbeck and says, "Y'know I wouldn't mind normally, but your acting a little weird... and you're by yourself... is the rest of yer team outside?"
- 06[23:45] * +Slag_Heap remains quiet until they are far enough from the manor
- 06[23:46] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "They're right behind. I wanted t'get in where it was cooler, so I trotted on ahead. Got a little dizzy right there in th' corridor, an' suddenly, well, you saw."
- 01[23:47] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The others not in the clinic are now away from the manor... Dust_Off sees down the road, leading to the main gate, a mare... but it couldn't be her.... No!... It was! How?! That was impossible! This mystery mare looks at her, as she trots slowly towards the corner of a building down the road.
- 03[23:47] * Ammy ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
- 06[23:47] * +Sour_Grape is still walking towards the inn, "We're meeting the others at the inn, roight?'
- 07[23:47] * NightmareBrony|GM sets mode: +v Ammy
- 06[23:48] * +Sagittis comes out of his hiding spot with his armor packed away, except for his armor coat. It was nice to be safe, but that stuff was bulky. "Yeah, the sun is not nice to a poofy buck."
- 01[23:49] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The security detail sees Sagittis enter, with the mare looking at him with a slight smile. The lead guard stallion raises an eyebrow and asks, "So... why were you tryin to feed her a potion?"
- 06[23:50] * +Roy_Calbeck turns to Peach Nectar. "'Cause I was hallucinatin' about bein' on a lovely tropical beach with blue waves an' a six-pack of cold ones, an' th' ladyfriend I was with asked me ta pour."
- 06[23:50] * +Dust_Off shrugs, "We actually didn't make a rendezvous point. Let's just wait at the in ." She keeps her eyes open as she walks.
- [23:50] <+Roy_Calbeck> "So," he says with a smile, "How's our patient this afternoon?"
- 01[23:52] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The mare that Dust_Off recognized continues to trot away, giving the pegasus mare a beckoning look of hurt and betrayal, as she rounds the corner of the building and fades from sight.
- 02[23:52] * +Ammy ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

- 01[23:53] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar Juice blinks and looks at the stallion strangely. The lead guard blinks and says, "Right... well go ahead... ask away then."
- 06[23:53] * +Dust_Off goes white...well a duller brown and green, "S-Sandy?" The pegasus stops and goes after the mare unthinking.
- 06[23:54] * +Sagittis goes over and sits next to the mare that liked him. "Roy, don't you think we should wait for the others?"
- 06[23:54] * +Sour_Grape looks up at Dust_Off, "Course it's Sandy, we're in a desert..."
- 01[23:54] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Sour_Grape, Slag_Heap, and Ammy see to their bewilderment Dust_Off zoom down the road, as they were getting so close to the inn... where was she going?
- 06[23:54] * +Sour_Grape blinkly blinks more as she runs off, "Dust? Duuuuust." Sour gives chase.
- 06[23:55] * +Slag_Heap blinks. "Dust?" He chases. What the hell...?
- 06[23:56] * +Roy_Calbeck nods to Sagittis. "Might as well."
- 02[23:56] * +Ammy ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
- 01[23:57] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar Juice looks at Roy_Calbeck with a frown and says with no hint of amusement behind her voice, "Jus' dandy." As Dust_Off rounds the corner where she saw the mare go around, she sees the large mare trotting effortlessly past the front gate guards, glancing over her shoulder giving the same expression... how... with how slow she was trotting, she sure did cover distance! But how was she still there?!
- 06[23:58] * +Dust_Off stops looking at the guards, bewildered.
- 01[23:59] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape is quickly gaining ground up to Dust_Off, catching up to her really quick, considering how fast she was. The other two are still trying to catch up to the two nimble pegasi as the gate guard look at Dust_Off with slight confusion at her expression. The mare Dust_Off saw, had rounded past the gate wall to the left, disappearing from sight.
- Session Time: Fri Oct 26 00:00:00 2012
- 06[00:00] * +Roy_Calbeck shrugs at Peach, giving the bedridden mare a half-lidded look. "Sorry ma'am. Cap'n's got the holotape."
- 01[00:01] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar Juice blinks confused and asks, "What holotape?" The guards have their undivided attention to Roy_Calbeck... even the mare that was transfixed originally on Sagittis' coat.
- 06[00:01] * +Sagittis smacks Roy_Calbeck with his tail and leers at him. "Some part of wait for the others not sinking in?"
- 06[00:01] * +Sour_Grape yells at Dust_Off, "What're you doing?"
- 06[00:02] * +Roy_Calbeck smirks.
- 06[00:02] * +Dust_Off looks at the Guards, a little shaken. How could explain? It would sound insane. She had to be wrong..did she want to be wrong? "Umm..who was the last pony to go through these gates?"
- [00:02] <+Dust_Off> *How could she explain?
- 01[00:02] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The guard blinks at Dust_Off like she's gone off her rocker and asks, "What mare?"
- 01[00:03] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Actually says, "What pony?"
- 06[00:04] * +Sagittis points his hoof at Roy_Calbeck. "Don't pull a Green."
- 06[00:04] * +Roy_Calbeck whistles idly. "Hey, we hafta have a dumbass unicorn in th' party. It's regulations."
- 01[00:04] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off swears she hears that voice...it was unmistakably hers... as she hears ever so softly, "Dusty... help me... " the source of the sound... as quiet as it was, seemed to originate where the pegasexy last saw the mare.
- 06[00:05] * +Sour_Grape waves a hoof at Dust_Off, "Hey, Dusty... you okay?"
- 01[00:05] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The guards in the room look at each other then look at the two, with the lead asking, "Uhh... so you guys waiting here?"
- 06[00:06] * +Roy_Calbeck brightly nods. "Yep!"
- 06[00:06] * +Sagittis nods. "That was the plan... I have some stew if anypony wants some."
- 06[00:06] * +Dust_Off looks at the corner the mare had gone around, "No, no, no..." She bites her lip and backs away from the Gate. She looks at Sour, "You didn't see me chase anypony, did you?"
- 06[00:06] * +Slag_Heap walks up decide Dust_Off. He looks very angry. "Seeing things? Ponies you knew disapearing? Same fucking joker."
- 01[00:07] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 No_One else saw this... mystery pony that Dust_Off was refering to... from their perspective she just ran for no reason to the front gate.
- 06[00:07] * +Sour_Grape "Ya mighta been chasin' somepony, but I didn't see them, just ya flyin' off like a bat out of a place bats come from
- 06[00:08] * +Dust_Off looks at Heap, "Your wife...is she dead?"
- 01[00:08] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Peach Nectar Juice sighs and says, "Y'know, I'm not really comfortable witcha both standin there all freaky like. Cantcha wait like... downstairs 'r sumthin?"
- 06[00:08] * +Slag_Heap nods. "Nopony." He looks between Dust_Off and Sour_Grape. "Some illusionist cunt needs his face turned to hamburger meat." He looks at Dust_Off. "No." He says simply, his face wincing slightly.
- 06[00:09] * +Roy_Calbeck pipes up, just as brightly, "Nope!"
- 06[00:10] * +Roy_Calbeck flips up his pistol in his tail and starts polishing it. Not legitimately cleaning... just polishing, with a levitated rag. The unicorn whistles a merry tune.
- 06[00:11] * +Sagittis tilts his head. "Freaky like? I offer spiced stew for free and you say we are freaky like? I'm hurt."
- 01[00:11] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The security leader frowns and says, "Look... you guys can wait at least out the door. She's not comfortable with strangers being in her room. Wait outside."
- 06[00:12] * +Roy_Calbeck blinks once, then looks at Sagi. "I don't think they want us here."
- 03[00:14] * Ammy ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
- 07[00:14] * NightmareBrony|GM sets mode: +v Ammy
- 06[00:14] * +Dust_Off looks at the others and then the gate, "The pony I saw is dead...she has to be...I saw her vaporized right in front of me." She continues to stare at gate. "It's...it's...too good, how could they know your wife AND Sandy...but..."
- 06[00:15] * +Sour_Grape looks confused, "Whose Sandy?'
- 06[00:15] * +Slag_Heap frowns, looking extremely pissed. "That's what I want to fucking know too." He stamps a hoof. "And I want answers."
- 01[00:15] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Again, Dust_Off here's that voice... soft... quiet... but irrefutably Sandy's as she pleads once more from the same direction, "They're... h-hurting me...."
- 01[00:16] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Ammy is also with the other three now at the front gate of Dune, as Dust_Off seems to be losing it along with Slag_Heap... though the latter claims it the work of unicorn magic.
- 06[00:18] * +Sagittis looks up at the security mare with puppycolt eyes.
- 06[00:18] * +Ammy tenses up in the loud din, she didn't like arguements and yelling. She decided to keep quiet as they yelled as to avoid making anything worse
- 01[00:20] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The security mare gasps slightly and bites her fetlock, as she stares at Sagittis... So much cute! Letting out a small, 'Hhnnnng' sound, she turns to the security leader and asks, "S-Sir... a-are you sure they can't stay?" The Security leader looks very unamused and says, "Positive... if you're so wrapped up over that colt, you can join em outside... and lose a days worth of rations."
- 06[00:20] * +Dust_Off looks down at Sour, "Sandy was..was my lover. She's dead. I saw the cloud of her ashes go down into the cloud floor."
- 06[00:20] * +Slag_Heap winces. "Sorry to hear that..." he says with sympathy.
- 06[00:21] * +Sour_Grape blinks, "Oh... I'm sorry..." She sounds almost sincear... "We just need rest, I bet the stress is gettin' ta us. Or magic ninjas."
- 06[00:21] * +Roy_Calbeck give the head guard a flat look. "Yer all heart."
- 06[00:22] * +Slag_Heap frowns and nods. "Yeah... and if not, I got dibs on smashing whoever's doing this's legs."
- 06[00:22] * +Sagittis droops his ear. "Oookay. I'll be outside... with my home cooked stew." He walks out and sits down.
- 06[00:23] * +Roy_Calbeck rolls his eyes, stows his pistol, and follows the flufflecolt with an air of exaggerated offense. Nose in the air and all. "Hummepfeh."
- 01[00:23] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 A gust of cold wind brushes by the group as Sour_Grape speaks... Ammy finds that a couple of her 5mm rounds somehow slip from her inventory and start rolling off with the wind towards an alleyway.
- 06[00:25] * +Ammy glances at the rounds and slips of to get them back slinking into the allyway as she picks them up one by one, somewhat glad to get away from the others whilst she recomposes herself
- 01[00:25] <@NightmareBrony|GM> The head Guard shrugs but remains silent to Roy_Calbeck. The mare guard... looks like she wants to cry as she watches Sagittis go outside. Once both leave, the door shuts behind them... with both hearing a shrilled screaming coming from downstairs.
- 06[00:25] * +Dust_Off is still looking at the gate, "I-I have to look. Grape, with me. Heap, Ammy, cover us." She goes towards the gate wall Sandy went around, again dramatically unaware of her party memebers.
- 06[00:25] * +Roy_Calbeck looks at Sagi. "Did you hear that?"
- 06[00:26] * +Ammy is in a nearby ally
- 06[00:26] * +Slag_Heap nosd and sighs. He looks over at Ammy. "Hole in your pack?" He asks. His voice sounds tired and slightly agitated.
- 06[00:26] * +Sagittis nods and wishes he had kept his armor on. He drops into stealth mode and heads down.
- 01[00:26] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Finds that as she rushes to get her ammo, that the suckers were fast! What a stranglely powerful gust of wind! When she looks up she sees familar ponies of her past... a group of five of them in their uniforms staring at her, each having a look of murder on their faces.
- 06[00:27] * +Slag_Heap watched Ammy. He goes over to said alley. "Ammy, cap said to cover her."
- 06[00:27] * +Sour_Grape follows after Dust_Off
- 06[00:28] * +Roy_Calbeck follows after, still clutching his pistol in his tail.
- 06[00:28] * +Ammy stares vacanty at the figures "Can I help you?" she askes blinking as a torrential flow of her memories comes flooding back triggered by their presence
- 01[00:29] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sagittis adopts his sneak form and goes downstairs with Roy_Calbeck following, they both see the receptionist room flickering, the receptionist mare is strangely gone... a blood trail leads outside the front door, but they see nopony around.
- 06[00:30] * +Roy_Calbeck snorts. "Not this again..."
- 06[00:31] * +Slag_Heap looks down the alley. Can he see them?
- 06[00:32] * +Sagittis follows the blood. "I can see it too."
- 01[00:32] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Ammy recognizes more and more these equine figures as one speaks in an unquestionably cold tone, "Yeah... you can help us by joining your blood with the rest of your sad kind..." Each pony pulls out a wicked series of melee instruments and begin to advance on the mare, the zebra mare beginning to feel terror overwhelm her. As Slag_Heap approaches, he suddenly can't find her... Where was she? It was just an empty alley...
- 06[00:33] * +Roy_Calbeck follows the voice of the colt he can't see. "Might's well see where this goes... an' I don't mean th' blood."
- 06[00:33] * +Slag_Heap looks around and groans loudly in frustration. "For fuck's sake! Ammy?! Where the hell are you?!"
- 06[00:33] * +Slag_Heap gives up. "Fine, stay out here." He goes back to covering Sour_Grape and Dust_Off.
- 01[00:34] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Ammy doesn't hear Slag_Heap, though Sour_Grape does. As Dust_Off rounds the corner of the gate, she sees Sandy trotting... slowly, a-ways down the wall heading towards a direction. Again, she looks over her shoulder, looking at Dust_Off... her expression, sad... hurt... betrayed... but beckoning.
- 06[00:34] * +Sour_Grape looks back at Slag_Heap, "What're you on about?"
- 01[00:34] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sagittis leads Roy_Calbeck outside, they see the street strangelty empty with just the blood trail leading off down the road. They both swear they hear the panting of a mare.
- 06[00:34] * +Ammy breathes harder and harder as a still image projection of memories long repressed finally resurfaced "no...no...no" she backpedalled away from the advancing troop nearly tripping over obstructions as she attempts to flee
- 06[00:34] * +Slag_Heap grumbles. "Ammy's disapeared."
- 01[00:35] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape is following Dust_Off... was her party suddenly going nuts? They were all acting so weird.
- 06[00:36] * +Sagittis dashes off down the blood path as fast as he can and stay in stealth.
- 06[00:36] * +Sour_Grape thinks they all took her mint-als and were reacting badly. She should take them back as punishment
- [00:36] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Hm." He looks up, peering about the abandoned street. "Shared hallucination? Gotta be a wizard around here somewhere."
- 06[00:36] * +Dust_Off looks after Sandy. She looks pained and feels it as she restrains herself. "Grape, what do you see in front of us along the wall?" She looks back at the filly."
- 06[00:37] * +Sour_Grape looks at where Dust_Off was directing and sees...
- 06[00:38] * +Roy_Calbeck follows Sagi as best he can.
- 01[00:38] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Panicking, Ammy bolts off past Dust_Off and Sour_Grape, screaming in stark fear as the zebra mare runs, she notices more... MORE of those ponies blocking her path directly ahead and to her right... her only avenue of escape to the left, where Dust_Off was headed. Slag_Heap, can finally hear the screaming of Ammy and turns to see her fleeing as if her life depended upon it.
- 06[00:39] * +Slag_Heap turns and runs over to Ammy, weapons ready. He jumps behind her, aiming down the alley. "I got you...covered...?" He sees nothing down the alley.
- 06[00:39] * +Sour_Grape "I see ammy high on Med-x again." Or mint-als... probably mint-als. Theives, all of them
- 01[00:39] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sagittis and Roy_Calbeck make their way around a building, they both can see Dust_Off, her clothing badly damaged and her right wing looking crippled as she runs down the street a ways down, the blood trail leading to her. Looking over her shoulder, it's unmistakable to note it was her, as she looked positively terrified.
- 06[00:41] * +Roy_Calbeck blinks in surprise. "Dusty?" He breaks to run. "Dusty! What happened?"
- 06[00:42] * +Ammy doesn't take a moment to question it and instead bolts to her only escape, the memories of her fleeing the same ponies as a chil flooded back, suddenly she was cold, lost and alone in the same snow covered woods she grew up in
- 01[00:42] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Roy_Calbeck attempts to follow Dust_Off, the wounded mare shouts back in a sheer tone of desperation, "They got Sour! And Ammy!" sure enough both can hear Ammy's panicked cries of terror off in the distance.
- 06[00:42] * +Slag_Heap looks back at Ammy. "Ammy! Calm down!" He calls after her. "There's nopony here!"
- 06[00:43] * +Sagittis slows down. "This isn't right..."
- 01[00:43] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Can only see Ammy running in sheer terror past them towards where Dust_Off directed her to look. The Dust_Off next to Sour_Grape also sees this, her concentration over Sandy broken due to the zebra's terrifed screaming as she runs.
- 06[00:43] * +Roy_Calbeck pulls up short at Sagi's comment, skidding in the dust and shaking his head. "None of this makes any sense..."
- 01[00:44] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Sour_Grape an only see Ammy that is.
- 06[00:44] * +Roy_Calbeck stomps a hoof in frustration.
- 06[00:44] * +Slag_Heap holds his head. "Everypony's going insane!" He groans in frustration.
- 06[00:45] * +Dust_Off looks at Ammy, "Wha-what tha hayell?" The mare takes to the air and spin about to see what's behind them.
- 01[00:46] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off sees nothing but the bewildered guards looking at each other in sheer confusion. Slag_Heap is also wondering what's going on... Ammy doesn't appear to be stopping at anytime... Oh hey... she could also see Roy_Calbeck and Sagittis off in the distance, barely in between buildings on a road.
- 06[00:46] * +Sagittis shakes his head. "That's not Dust. There is no way she would let herself stay in that condition in a crisis... We should get back to the hospital. If this was real, one of the Juice guards would be here too."
- 06[00:48] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "Yer right... somepony's screwin' with us here."
- 06[00:48] * +Roy_Calbeck heads back for the clinic. "Maybe a distraction fer some reason... if so, it's a damn good one..."
- 06[00:49] * +Dust_Off turns back around and chases after Ammy, "Grape, Heap, on me!"
- 06[00:49] * +Slag_Heap nods and follows. He's slower than the others, considering he has less agl and a large hooflocker on his back.
- 06[00:50] * +Sour_Grape chases after Dust_Off. She could just catch upw ith Ammy because she's faster then the both of them, but is confused enough to listen to orders
- 01[00:50] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Ammy hasn't even come to the conclusion to stop, as she runs and runs. Finding only safety in her paranoid state in the direction she was running, along Dune's outer wall. For a brief moment, Sagittis spot Dust_Off... in the air... then takes off...
- 06[00:50] * +Dust_Off glances at Roy and Sagi, "Join up!" Like hell, the filly is faster. Dusty FLIES
- 01[00:51] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The Dust_Off in the air, also issues a command to the duo, yelling loud enough for both to hear, gaining now Roy_Calbeck's attention.
- 06[00:52] * +Ammy ignored all her sense and kept running, thats how she got away before, Remember Ammy? You ran and you hid, and it worked! Just keep running!
- 06[00:55] * +Sagittis shakes his head and follows Roy_Calbeck back to the clinic. "I hate this town. Remind me to never come back here when our job is done."
- 06[00:55] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "You got it."
- 01[00:57] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Ammy rushes like crazy, but blinks and notices that her pursurers behind her are not who she thought... Seeing Dust_Off, Sour_Grape advancing on her position incredibly fast, with Slag_Heap trailing behind. Roy_Calbeck and Sagittis ignore either Dust_Off and head back to the clinic.
- 06[00:58] * +Dust_Off grinds her teeth. She swerves to the left sharply and then snaps straight. Kachow! With a Fantastic Filly Flash, she goes twice as fast in flight! Surely not even a stampeded zebra can reach on her.
- 01[00:59] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Sour_Grape and Slag_Heap are temporarily blinded by the sudden flash, as Dust_Off zooms right up to Ammy... Sour_Grape is not too far behind, with Slag_Heap needing to cover more ground.
- [01:00] <+Ammy> Ammy looks at her comrades as they chase her, she made them out as her delusional state as it bled between her grey memories and reality. The Zebra oversteps and trips over rolling on her back in a daze before she tried to claw her way back upright
- 06[01:00] * +Slag_Heap winces and swerves slightly. He shakes his head and follows after again. He gets a new dose of determination and increases in speed.
- 06[01:01] * +Sour_Grape holds her eyes. "Owwwwwww." she skids to a stop
- 06[01:02] * +Dust_Off swerves around in mid-air, strangely it sounds as if there are squealing tires and brakes. She comes to a stop past Ammy, "What did you see?!"
- 01[01:02] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The blinding flash is noticable by nearly anyone near the front gate, with Sagittis and Roy_Calbeck also taking notice...
- 06[01:02] * +Roy_Calbeck stops and looks over his shoulder. "Hang on, THAT Dusty's flyin' around an' pullin' stunts. Prolly her."
- 01[01:03] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Ammy is a quivering wreck... how... how did they find her? Wait... where were they?!
- 06[01:03] * +Sagittis shakes his head. "May be, but I'm not going to go running around town for her. Something is trying to distract us and I won't let us get drawn off task."
- [01:04] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Hmph. Fine. Lead on."
- [01:04] <+Ammy> /me curls up and covers her head "Nononono, they found me...I knew they would and they did and they're after me to finish their mission" she shivers "nonononono"
- 02[01:04] * Karina ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: )
- 06[01:05] * +Ammy curls up and covers her head "Nononono, they found me...I knew they would and they did and they're after me to finish their mission" she shivers "nonononono"
- [01:05] <+Ammy> *
- 06[01:05] * +Slag_Heap wheezes as he finally catches up. He takes a moment to right himself. "There was nothing in that alley." He says, breathing somewhat heavily. "nopony at all."
- 06[01:06] * +Dust_Off puts her hooves on Ammy and shakes her, "Get a hold of yourself! We're suffering mass hallucinations! "
- 01[01:06] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis and Roy_Calbeck make their way back to the clinic... the blood trail was gone... the receptionist mare was staring at them both like they were nuts. "You need some other addictions taken care of?"
- 06[01:07] * +Roy_Calbeck shakes his head. "Not unless ya got somethin' fer heat stroke..."
- 01[01:07] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 When Sour_Grape's blindness wears off, her vision is momentarily blurry, as she hears the familiar sound of skittering.... behind her.... no jokes, she seriously heard them this time.
- 06[01:08] * +Sour_Grape heart jumps into her throat. That a bad palce for it so she gulps loudly to put it back where it's supposed to be. She turns around slowly towards the noise.
- 01[01:08] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The receptionist mare shakes her head and says, "Damn tourists. Drink some water already."
- 06[01:09] * +Sagittis shakes his head and goes back to his sopt by the room, knocking on the door. "Every one still good?"
- 01[01:09] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The filly sees to her absolute horror a monsterously huge Ant... impossibly large.... advancing towards her, it's mandible dripping with a strange sickenly yellow viscous liquid.
- 06[01:09] * +Roy_Calbeck follows the colt, keeping his pistol ever at the ready.
- 01[01:10] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Nopony or zebra else hears this skittering.
- 06[01:10] * +Slag_Heap looks between Ammy and Dust_Off. "Ever seen something like this before, doc?"
- 01[01:10] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The door opens and the lead guard looks at the two saying, "Yeah, whats up?"
- 06[01:11] * +Ammy shakes still "They were all there, I remembered each one...they were all their and they're after me" she stumbles to her hooves pacing slowly in the direction she was previously fleeing before promplty falling over again
- [01:11] <+Ammy> there*
- 06[01:11] * +Sagittis shakes his head. "Nothing. The others will be here shortly, just FYI."
- 06[01:11] * +Sour_Grape mouth hangs open when she sees the giant ant. If she was in the right state of mind she would remember her freinds acting crazy, but any sort of logic is washed away as the thing moves closer. Tears imediatly start flowing down her face and she starts to shake, far to scared to move so she stands in place looking up at that... that thing.
- 01[01:12] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard just replies simply, "Good." before shutting the door.
- 06[01:13] * +Dust_Off looks at Slag, again shaking Ammy. "Not of this sort. It might be a fungus..rare in the desert...cactus? I don't know." She looks back at the zebra, "It's all right." She shakes the mare, "Nothing to be afraid of. It was a hullincation!"
- 01[01:13] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As the monsterous ant gets closer and closer to the petrified filly, she feels her head getting light... incredibly light and her breathing short. Her knees locking up, she promptly falls over in a faint, thudding softly against the dust and sandy ground.
- 01[01:14] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour Grape faints that is.
- 06[01:14] * +Sour_Grape passes out. She probably needs to clean her barding now too.
- 06[01:15] * +Slag_Heap nods. "I see... fungal infection does sound about right. That or the heat playing with our heads." His face scrunches. "Maybe something to do with age?" He ponders, remembering that Sour_Grape hadn't seen anything. "What about you, kid?" He asks, looking around. "Uh... where's Grape...?"
- 01[01:15] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The trio near Sour_Grape swears they hear a faint goat bleating.
- 06[01:16] * +Dust_Off heads an adorable bleating and looks around.
- [01:16] <+Dust_Off> *hears
- 01[01:17] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape wasn't far away from Ammy and they all see her slowly sliding down slowly towards the sands.
- 06[01:18] * +Ammy shakes "They said they would find me...I knew they would..." she rises up again her legs trembling as her concious thought returned and she hobbled after the others "I..." she looks at Dusty "They..."
- 06[01:19] * +Sour_Grape is sliding, this is probably a bad thing
- 06[01:20] * +Slag_Heap looks over and sees Sour_Grape on the ground. He frowns and trots over, picking the filly up. "Damn..." he mutters. He brings her back to Dust_Off. "Looks like I was wrong."
- 01[01:22] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap goes over and picks the filly up... ohh,... her... barding was soaking wet... and smelt... like... ohhhh poor filly... what happened to her?
- 06[01:23] * +Slag_Heap winces. "Looks like we all got it." He hands the soggy filly over to Dust_Off.
- 01[01:24] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Another cold breeze passes by the group... the afternoon now rolling into early evening... the clouds were hanging heavy for some reason.
- 06[01:25] * +Dust_Off backs up from Slag_Heap and his odiferous burden, "Yeeeeaaah...you've got her just fine. But yes, we're all affected." She looks around, "Considering that the Sagittis and Roy I saw may or may not be them...or did not notice me callig to them.."
- 06[01:26] * +Slag_Heap sighs and puts her back on his back. "You're paying my laundry bill." He mutters. "We should get out of here..."
- 06[01:27] * +Dust_Off nods, "Let's go to the clinic. Our party members...or my delusions were there." She goes towards the clinic.
- 06[01:28] * +Sour_Grape is going to deny this ever happened when she wakes up... on pain of shotgun
- [01:28] <+Dust_Off> She slow down to look Grape over...from a couple pony lengths away.
- 01[01:28] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The rest of the group make their way into the clinc, the receptionist mare knowing their business doesn't stop them from going up to the door that Sagittis and Roy_Calbeck were at, the door leading to Peach Nectar Juice's room closed. The fluffle colt and handsome stallion note that... Sour_Grape was asleep?
- 01[01:29] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Everyone notes that... besides the unconscious filly, that they all look unsettled to a degree.
- 06[01:30] * +Sour_Grape looks quite unsettled in her... uh sleep thing
- 06[01:30] * +Slag_Heap looks fuckin angry.
- 01[01:30] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape also reeks of pee-pee.
- 06[01:30] * +Dust_Off looks at the much whiter stallion and the whiter and grayer zebra, "You saw Hallucinations? ?
- [01:31] <+Dust_Off> *?????????????"
- 06[01:31] * +Sagittis "Something fuck with you too?"
- 06[01:31] * +Slag_Heap nods.
- 06[01:31] * +Roy_Calbeck looks up at Dusty. "Yep."
- 06[01:32] * +Roy_Calbeck trots over to the unconscious --- and fragrant --- Sour, a look of concern scrunching his muzzle. "How is she?"
- 06[01:33] * +Dust_Off looks at Sour, "Scared shitless."
- 06[01:33] * +Slag_Heap Thank celestia, he thinks. If only she was scared pissless...
- 06[01:33] * +Roy_Calbeck sighs. "Better that, than how I saw 'er."
- 06[01:34] * +Roy_Calbeck reaches out a hoof and strokes the little filly's mane.
- 06[01:34] * +Sour_Grape twitches at the touch but does not awaken
- 06[01:34] * +Sagittis looks over to Sour_Grape. "We should probably try to wake her up before we try this. It also may be a rare chance to give her a bath."
- 06[01:34] * +Roy_Calbeck looks to the receptionist. "How much t'borrow a shower stall fer about an hour? Gotta be able ta clean up, right?"
- 01[01:36] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape twitches ever so slightly in her unconscious state, as the filly finds herself in a room... a... very family room... a shack... Ohhh noo... this was not a good place to be... not here... anywhere but here... The bed, table, and other scant furnishings are slick with wet blood as she sees the door leading into her shack wide open with a cold breeze faintly blowing in... the door shifting from the wind and making eerie creaking sounds.
- 06[01:36] * +Dust_Off looks at everyone. "Roy, you saw her? I saw...someone important to me. Slag saw his wife...too much to external illusions...must be something internal but we were all exposed."
- 01[01:37] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The receptionist mare looks over at Roy_Calbeck and says, "The common house has a free shower if you wanna use... but it ain't really... kept to cleaning standards if you know what I mean. If you want a decent bath, go find a room at one of the inns."
- 06[01:38] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, still tousling Sour's mane. "She was bleeding out from the neck."
- 06[01:38] * +Sour_Grape looks around the shack... she knew this place... she knew it far to well... she crouches herseld down and darts under the bed to hide. She couldn;t be here again, she left, and was never supposed to come back.
- 06[01:38] * +Roy_Calbeck nods to the receptionist. "Thanks."
- 06[01:39] * +Sagittis shakes his head. "I'm guessing the Rangers did something with that damned teleporter. Anyway, I can take Sour if you like. I'll have her back in no time."
- 06[01:40] * +Slag_Heap nods. "Alright." He takes the sleeping filly gently off his back and slowly hands her over to the zebra.
- 06[01:40] * +Sour_Grape suspects Sagittis is trying to get blackmail material
- 06[01:40] * +Roy_Calbeck gives the two a look. "Not without me, yer not."
- 01[01:41] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sour_Grape hides under the bed, an ominous echoing trot can be heard, that sends shivers up and down her spine. A rough, but smooth tone that ices the filly's blood sing-songs eeriely, "Little foal playing her game. Little foal, hiding her shame... Who is to blame?" the trotting stops inside the shack, the filly seeing a set of hooves, the right foreleg having a nasty scar running up it's side vertically.
- 06[01:41] * +Dust_Off nods, "Teleporter, mind magic, fungal, cactus toxin...who knows." She stops, "Right, Roy, All of us. We don't split up. Not while this going on."
- 06[01:41] * +Roy_Calbeck nods back at Dusty. "Cleanup or interview first, then?"
- 06[01:42] * +Dust_Off looks at Grape, "Clean up."
- 06[01:42] * +Slag_Heap nods.
- 06[01:43] * +Sour_Grape gulps and closes her eyes when she sees the scarred leg. Tis couldn't be real. She ran away. She couldn't be back. And yet none of those thoughts help stem the rising fear in the back of her threat. She lets out a pathetic whimper
- 06[01:44] * +Sagittis rolls his eyes. "We should leave some guards here, two or three. If something is going at us, it may be trying to get us off the job."
- 06[01:45] * +Roy_Calbeck leads the way to the common house. "Captain said we stick together, so we stick together. C'mon, time's wastin'."
- 06[01:45] * +Slag_Heap has long since smoked the last of his cigar.
- 06[01:46] * +Dust_Off goes with, "None of them happened all at once...and each us went off after it, or at least from what i saw, correct?"
- 01[01:46] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape continues to hear the smooth, rough voice, sing in it's masculine and harsh tone, "Hiding, hiding, all her life, giving others untold strife... While those she left gets put the the knife... why does she run? Why does she lie? She must think it's fun... until she herself will...." a face pokes itself under the bed, that... horrible familar face... but it was wrong... it was sunken, the eyes glowing a strange pink fire that licked the sockets as it says suddenly in an impossibly low tone, "DIE."
- 06[01:47] * +Sagittis snorts at Roy_Calbeck. "I don't take orders." He looks to Dust_Off. "Ours were a bit diffrent, but that is the basics."
- 06[01:48] * +Sour_Grape opens her eyes and sees the face and can't think of any reaction but to screech and try to cover her face from the fire
- 06[01:48] * +Roy_Calbeck shrugs. "Then go off an' do whatever."
- 06[01:49] * +Dust_Off raises an eyebrow, "Exactly, you don't follow orders. Please correct that, or at least try to while we're being
- 06[01:49] * +Roy_Calbeck is on his way to the showers, and if Sagi isn't coming he takes the filly by the nape of her neck.
- [01:49] <+Dust_Off> mind screwed."
- 01[01:49] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The group head to the common house, Sour_Grape's face contorts further in distress, as she gives a small kick,,, They find the common house a pathetic squalor compared to everything else in the guady settlement. The showers are a horrible rusted and disgusting mess of equine refuse.
- 06[01:49] * +Slag_Heap awaits orders.
- 06[01:51] * +Roy_Calbeck puts Sour down gently, turning on the shower and mucking out the stall for a minute just to get the worst of it out.
- 01[01:51] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape feels herself get lifted up, the pink burning flames for eyes, glowing impossibly brighter, as a misty tendril pulls apart her hooves and forces her eyes to open, the voice, a mix of an otherworldly tone with the stallion she remembered and knew of in the past speaks harshly, "You left your mother to die and now she's /mine./"
- 06[01:51] * +Dust_Off frowns and then looks at Grape, "Let's take her to the inn. This is a tetanus scam by the clinic."
- 06[01:52] * +Sagittis shakes his head and sits down to wait by the door, Dust_Off's reply having guarantied that he was not going to comply. “Best of luck.” He mumbles under his breath. “Ass holes.”
- 06[01:53] * +Slag_Heap nods at Dust_Off. "I'll rent the room if needed." He shifts slightly, caps clinking in his saddlebags.
- 06[01:53] * +Sour_Grape sobbs and kicks her hoovsies, "No I diddn't! I didn't... She told me... she said... she." She starts crying more.
- 06[01:54] * +Roy_Calbeck trots Grape off to the nearest inn. "Let's move, I think she's gettin' worse..."
- 06[01:55] * +Slag_Heap nods and follows.
- 06[01:55] * +Dust_Off looks very concerned at Grape and follows.
- 01[01:56] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The malevolent... eye flaming pony grins sadistically and says, "You abandoned her. Your family... and now I hold them all. They're mine to play with... Forever... but you can see them all again one day little filly... Very soon...." the voice reverberates as the flames grow in intesity, during Sour_Grape's sobbing. In the waking world as the group reaches the Broken Carriage wheel, the filly's face contorts in sheer fear, tears slowly running down her face, her body twiching slightly more.
- [01:57] <+Dust_Off> "Wait, let's go to the Broken Wheel, we need some level of security."
- [01:58] <+Dust_Off> "Roy, stop. We can't wait to wash her. Let me check her over." The mare screws up her courage...and stops breathing through her nose.
- [01:58] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Oh dear Luna, I can't stand this."
- 01[01:58] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sagittis mulls by his lonesome, he sees a mare in a nurse uniform trot by him... wow she was... fairly pretty. Looking down at him, she smiles sweetly and continues her way down the hall.
- 06[01:58] * +Sour_Grape wakes up flaing her limbs and sobbing. Well this sucked
- 06[01:58] * +Roy_Calbeck pulls up to tend to Sour, cuddling the filthy little filly in his forelegs. "Shhh..."
- 06[01:59] * +Sagittis blinks and watches the other mare, totaly for security reasons, but does not leave his post.
- 01[01:59] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Before Sour_Grape can fully awaken, the malovlent being says to her, his voice drowning out, as the nightmare ends, "The Hollow.... awa--.."
- 06[02:00] * +Slag_Heap looks concerened to the party. Concerned, then angry.
- 06[02:00] * +Sour_Grape stops flailing at the cmforting voice but does not stop sobbing
- 06[02:00] * +Roy_Calbeck holds Sour_Grape gently. "It's okay, we're all here."
- 06[02:00] * +Dust_Off stands by.
- [02:01] <+Roy_Calbeck> "You're okay, Sour."
- 06[02:02] * +Slag_Heap walks over to Dust_Off. "I still think this is magic."
- 01[02:02] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Once inside the Broken Carriage Wheel, the group, minus Sagittis, find the snooty waiter greeting them, "Mmm welcome back, how may we serve?"
- 06[02:02] * +Sour_Grape sobbing quietly down as her filly brain tries to process what just happen. She also feels strangely wet, but is in no condition to realize why
- [02:03] <+Dust_Off> "Noted, it's a hypothesis definitely." She nods to the buck. She looks at the waiter, "We need our rooms again."
- 01[02:03] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis sees the fairly cute nurse mare stops at the hallway and turns her head to the colt, winking at him, then goin around the corner.
- 06[02:04] * +Roy_Calbeck carries Sour_Grape in behind the rest, hiding the filly's shame if not her smell from the rest of the inn's patrons.
- 01[02:04] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The snooty waiter nods and directs them to their rooms, the two same decent suites they were given before.
- 06[02:04] * +Sagittis snorts and stays put. Puberty be damned, he had a job to do and an over inflated ego to appease.
- 06[02:05] * +Slag_Heap looks at the waiter. "I'm gonna need a room too." He still looks pissed.
- 01[02:06] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Snorting and turning away from the mare, he feels... strange... like something is watching him from the direction of the stairs leading up to the hallway he was in, that connected to the receptionist area.
- 01[02:06] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis feels this.
- 06[02:07] * +Sagittis eyes the disterbace and drops into sneak, but does not go anywhere.
- 01[02:07] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The snooty waiter blinks and looks at Slag_Heap and responds, "25 caps sir for a standard room. A Suite is 50 caps."
- 06[02:07] * +Slag_Heap looks slightly less pissed. "What's the difference."
- 06[02:07] * +Sour_Grape would be glad for Roy's attempt, if she was aware enough to figure out why she was wet.
- 01[02:08] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis turns and sees nothing... suddenly he hears a whisper behind him... that of a young adult mare whispering ever so softly, "Hey... come here..."
- 06[02:09] * +Dust_Off looks at Slag, "You can stay with Roy and Sagittis." She trots up to Roy and whispers, "I'll take and wash her. You all can stay in the bed room and wait." She dramatically and suddenly notices Sagittis is gone. "Damn that colt."
- 01[02:10] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The snooty waiter replies to Slag_Heap, "Standard room has the normal accomadations one would expect to find in an inn, Bed, bathroom. But the Suite is complete with it's own fridge of food, with large more comfortable accomedations."
- 06[02:10] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, carefully transferring the filly to Dusty's back. "Seeya when yer ready, Cap."
- 06[02:10] * +Slag_Heap nods at Dust_Off and sighs. "I doubt I'm gonna sleep tonight. Better get my own so not to disturb em." He looks at the weighter. "I'll take the regualr room." He hands over 25 caps.
- 06[02:10] * +Sour_Grape has now gotten pee on everyone but ammy. Neeeew record.
- 06[02:10] * +Sagittis glances over his shoulder.
- 01[02:11] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis turns and again... sees nothing... but again... he hears that voice... even in his sneaky stance, "Come on... follow me..." then hears the strange slapping of... wet hooves against the floor trot away from his location... down the hall somewhat.
- 06[02:12] * +Dust_Off walks up stairs, "I'm serious, wait in my bedroom. We'll be in the bathroom. I don't want to split up. Sagitis can go hang."
- 06[02:12] * +Sour_Grape clutches onto Dust_Off and sobs on her now because she was a frightened little filly
- 06[02:13] * +Slag_Heap takes his caps back with a sigh. "NEvermind." He tells the waiter. He looks at Dust_Off. "Alright, you win, Cap."
- 06[02:14] * +Roy_Calbeck heads up the stairs, crooning soft nonsense words to the poor filly until the bathroom door closes in front of him.
- 06[02:14] * +Sagittis shakes his head and drinks some water, staying put and sneeky.
- 06[02:14] * +Roy_Calbeck flops on the bed. "GAH."
- 06[02:15] * +Dust_Off looks at Slag, "Wait in my room. Not sleep. I'm not sleeping with any stallions." She nuzzles Grape and holds her breath while she does so. Taking her upstairs and into the bathroom.
- 01[02:15] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis feels a strange light tapping on his shoulder...
- 06[02:16] * +Ammy is still trembling ever so slightly, she goes off in search of alcohol to calm her nerves
- 01[02:16] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off and kroo are basically in the suites, however they see fit, with the two large beds and love seats in each suite. There is also a small fridge in each suite and a private bathroom, with all the amenities.
- 06[02:16] * +Slag_Heap nods. "No plans on that here." He walks up the stairs, still looking pissed, and goes to Dust_Off's room. He sits in a chair in her room.
- 06[02:17] * +Roy_Calbeck snoozes on one bed while the filly is getting her bath. That'll take a while.
- 06[02:19] * +Sagittis looks over his shoulder again.
- 06[02:19] * +Sour_Grape "Where..." She managed to mumble out as she is moved more. She squirms in her wet clothes, "What..." The last thing she remembered was a giant ant,a dn then that horrible... thing... she starts sobbing quieter
- 06[02:19] * +Dust_Off gags and wretches in the bathroom. The...excitement cleaned off quickly, normal Grape is just REALLY disgusting.
- 01[02:19] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Turns and sees nothing... this was getting weird.... behind him, he suddenly hears a loud crashing sound.
- 01[02:20] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 This happens to Sagittis.
- 06[02:20] * +Sour_Grape last took a shower the same time Dust_Off did...
- 06[02:20] * +Sour_Grape wait, thats a lie, still was not that long ago
- 01[02:22] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 This is true, Sour_Grape was a lot cleaner than her first inital bath. As Roy_Calbeck sleeps he finds himself climbing the staircase in the clinic... he had a mare to interrogate... but first he had to meet up with his crew. They told him to meet him there didn't they? He was certain that's what he rememebered last.
- [02:23] <+Dust_Off> Grape is really nasty, but Dusty perserves! (:D) The mare shushes the filly humming a lullaby her mother had sung to her, something about the calm north winds blowing her to dream land.
- 06[02:23] * +Roy_Calbeck sits there in the hallway and waits for the others to arrive.
- 06[02:24] * +Sour_Grape is really confused as she is suddenly stripped and bathed, but does recognize Dust_Off through bleary eyes. "W-what's going on... there was an... an ant. And then I was...." she whispers. "Home..."
- 01[02:24] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Hears a thudding coming from up the staircase and from the hallway, as the stallion stops on the staircase.
- 06[02:24] * +Roy_Calbeck looks down the staircase expectantly.
- 06[02:25] * +Slag_Heap sits in a chair, thinking. He still looks pissed as he unhooks his battle saddle with a heavy thump and takes the top part of his armour. The part that had Sour_Grape's pee on it. He sets it aside and leans back on the chair.
- 06[02:25] * +Dust_Off shakes her head and shushes her, "We were all seeing things, remember? None of it happened."
- 06[02:25] * +Sour_Grape nods blearly, "But I... I..." she shuts up and stares down at the now disgusting bath water.
- 06[02:26] * +Sagittis stays put and waits for the others.
- 01[02:27] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck looks to the source of the noise... seeing Green... approaching him... her body completely slick with blood and meaty chunks... shovel floating in a telekinetic field as she stares at Roy_Calbeck with burning hatred, she says out cryptically, "I told you I would come back and make you evil ponies pay... especially that demon of a filly."
- 06[02:27] * +Dust_Off nuzzles the less disgusting filly, "Ants and home? I saw my Sandy, I loved her, but she was assassinated. She-she wasn't real just then."
- 06[02:27] * +Sour_Grape doesn't want to talk about home and nuzzles back, "Okay..." she says, still not completely sure. it seemed so real.
- 01[02:28] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Ammy finds the snooty waiter looking at her and asks, "May I assist miss?"
- 01[02:28] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis hears a creaky... like metal slidding on the floor behind him.
- 06[02:29] * +Ammy "How many caps does it take to get me 3 of your strongest bottles of Vodka?" she says rubbing her temples, still trying to compose herself
- 06[02:29] * +Roy_Calbeck pulls his pistol and opens up on Green without a word.
- 01[02:29] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The snooty waiter replies to Ammy, "Our strongest bottles of vodka are each 30 caps, miss."
- 01[02:31] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck unloads his pistol into the mare causing her to grunt and recoil in pain, before falling down and wheezing. To his... absolute shock, she rises back up, her eyes beginning to glow a strange pink glow... the look is... unsettling... the unicorn mare begins to slowly advance on the stallion.
- 06[02:32] * +Sagittis is quite befuddled by this, as his back is to a door at this point. He takes a deep breath and holds up his sunglasses, using them as a mirror to keep an eye behind him.
- 06[02:32] * +Roy_Calbeck snorts, glaring. "I shoulda known. This crap again..." With a whip-snap of that tail, he holsters the weapon. "C'mon, Green. Have at."
- 06[02:32] * +Ammy fishes out 50 caps "Give me one of your strongest for 30 and whatever 20 caps gets me for the rest" she says sitting as comfortably as she could on the resteraunt chairs
- 01[02:32] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Then Sagittis hears the sound to his right, down the hall where that nurse mare trotted down earlier.
- 06[02:32] * +Slag_Heap sits and thinks for a loooong while. He rocks back and forth slowly on the chair.
- 06[02:32] * +Dust_Off smiles and finishes washing herself and Grape, "There clean. Now we just dry off." She looks around, "Need more room for proper drying. Let's go.0""
- [02:32] <+Dust_Off> She goes into the bedroom.
- 06[02:33] * +Sour_Grape climbs out of the tub and shakes herself out before follow. She leaves her wet clothes there for now, but grabs her shotgun.
- 06[02:33] * +Sagittis scan back and forth, up and down the hall as he does what he can to keep his breathing controled.
- [02:33] <+Sagittis> scans*
- 06[02:35] * +Slag_Heap is in the corner, on a chair, without the top half of his armour. He is a very muscular pony, but not exactly handsome.
- 01[02:35] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sagittis scans to his right down the hall, he suddenly sees a gurney rolling right at him at tremendous speed. Unable to react in time, the gurney slams into his side, knocking him over and sprawling him towards the staircase, but stopping right before it, thankfully not sending him tumbling down the staircase.
- 06[02:35] * +Slag_Heap is covered in scars too. Looks like scars from both operations, and a ton of bullets.
- 06[02:35] * +Slag_Heap operations as in surgeries.
- 06[02:36] * +Sour_Grape is also covered with scars, though probably not as many
- 06[02:37] * +Sagittis grunts and gets back up, heading back to the gurney and poking it with his hoof.
- 06[02:37] * +Dust_Off takes in Slag_Heap McGristles strong body and says "Your doctors are horrible at incisions and stitching."
- 01[02:37] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Roy_Calbeck holsters his pistol, he notices that... Green's eyes begin to be consumed with pink fire, licking at her sockets, staring directly at the stallion, he begins to feel unparalleled fear... Her voice beginning to shift to a strange impossiblly low tone in a reverberating tone, "I will kill them Roy... all of them... and there isn't a thing you can do... I will purge their wicked filth from the wasteland..." the mare has her saddlebags stuffed... Roy_Calbeck can see it partially opened and the head of Dust_Off in it.
- 12[02:37] * Primer is now known as DancingOnTheAshes
- 06[02:38] * +Slag_Heap shrugs. "They didn't exactly have much left to patch me over with. Can't blame them."
- 01[02:38] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The snooty waiter informs Ammy that normal vodkas are 10 caps, strongest 30.
- 06[02:38] * +Sour_Grape climbs onto the bed and curls into a little ball until she is as small as possible. At least she has a good excuse for hacin scars. Raider medical care is... non-existant. "Hate this city..."
- 06[02:39] * +Ammy nods "One 30, Two 10s" she says hoofing the 50 caps over
- 01[02:39] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis goes near the gurney and sees the hallway flickering again... then he hears the same soft whisper from before speak to him, "Deliver us... from... eeevil...." he then hears a sudden crashing sound coming from Peach Nectar's room... the gurney slamming itself up against the door.
- 06[02:40] * +Dust_Off shakes her head, "Awful, just...awful." She stretchs her wing. That sexy pegatramp! She had a sexy wet mane! Of all the nerve...she looks at the sleeping Roy. "Heap, where' Ammy?"
- 06[02:40] * +Roy_Calbeck chokes down his fear, not without hard effort. He's been under artillery barrages... seen continents burn from on high... heard the dropships thunder... fear is what you kill to stay alive. "Go on, Green. Say your piece. Do what you have to. Be done with you."
- 06[02:40] * +Sagittis pushes the gurney away and opens the door to Peach Nectar's room.
- 06[02:41] * +Slag_Heap nods at the door. "Downstairs." He doesn't appreciate Dust_Off for her body, but more her personality. Plus, he wasn't interested in younger mares.
- 01[02:42] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Green reaches Roy_Calbeck and stands before him, her eyes gaining intensity, as the pink flames lick more and more in her sockets, her face starting to become gaunt and skeletal, "No more talk Roy, I will wipe you from this world clean..." her voice shifting now fully to a mix of reverberating otherworldly and her own, she adds with a sneer, "Then it will be mine... and I will play with those you cherish forever..."
- 01[02:43] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis can't pry the gurney away from the door! What sorcery was this?! What foolish pony was doing this?!
- 06[02:44] * +Ammy cracks open one of the cheap bottles and guages herself on the bottle like it was water disregarding a shot glass and drinking liberally. like only a Stalliongrad pony could
- 06[02:44] * +Dust_Off nods, "Okay, Grape, you and Heap stay here with Roy. I'll fetch Ammy."
- 01[02:44] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Feels his throat beginning to close, breathing becoming difficult.. but Green's magic was still teethered around her shovel... he didn't even feel her magic around his neck!
- 06[02:44] * +Sagittis braces himself and pulls again.
- 01[02:44] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck feels this as he sleeps/
- 06[02:44] * +Roy_Calbeck has every nerve screaming at him to turn tail, run, run! Horses run! They stay alive! They hide!... with a squeal of pre-civilized anger, he lunges instead, biting at the hell-mare's throat...
- 06[02:45] * +Slag_Heap nods.
- 01[02:46] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis struggles, then he hears a piercing shriek from inside Peach Nectar's room and blood beginning to splatter against the window of the door, as the flickering intensifies! By his tribe, the screaming... what was happening inside?
- 06[02:47] * +Sagittis smacks himself across the face with a hoof to see if it clears what is going on.
- 01[02:47] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Roy_Calbeck lunges at the Hell-mare but she just smirks and begins to laugh, a mix of childishness and absolute sadistic glee, as she speaks further, "You can fight all you want, but it won't help you... Not your friends, nopony... you will /all/ /be/... /MIIIIIINE!/ the hellish visage screams at the stallion, forcing him to wake up in a cold sweat... the words echoing in his mind, "The Hollow awaits..."
- 01[02:48] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The snooty waiter completes the transaction for Ammy, giving her the vodka bottles. One strong, two regular.
- 06[02:48] * +Ammy finishes her first bottle and reaches for the second cheap bottle drinking it right from the bottle but much slower
- 06[02:49] * +Roy_Calbeck sits up straight in bed, rubbing his face with both hooves. "Crap, crap crap..."
- 06[02:49] * +Dust_Off totally leaves before Roy catapults awake, Dramatic obliviousness go! And she does as well, downstairs.
- 06[02:49] * +Slag_Heap looks over at Roy_Calbeck. "That's why I ain't sleepin."
- 06[02:50] * +Roy_Calbeck flops back onto the bed with a *pomf*. "All day an' a night in th' dust, can't even catch a nap..."
- 06[02:50] * +Slag_Heap scratches his muttonchops. "Mmmhm."
- 06[02:51] * +Sour_Grape jumps off the bed and scurries away when Roy_Calbeck freaks out
- 01[02:51] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis slaps himself but it doesn't seem to do anything... Fuck... the shrieking wouldn't stop... every scream was sending shivers down his spine in a panic, as one of Peach Nectar's hoof slams against the window of the door in a bloody smear. The gurney shakes.
- 06[02:51] * +Roy_Calbeck blinks at Sour. "Hey, you okay?"
- 06[02:51] * +Sour_Grape is shaking a little bit in the corner she scurried to and shakes her head
- 06[02:52] * +Roy_Calbeck gets up and walks over to nuzzle the filly. "If you want the bed, it's all yours. Okay?"
- 06[02:52] * +Slag_Heap sighs. He had thought the child was asleep. Whoops. He gently rocks back and forth on his chair.
- 06[02:53] * +Dust_Off walks downstairs, quite concerned. Was this all something to get them off the investigation? What was the vector of the syndrome? ...was Sandy really dead?"
- 06[02:53] * +Sour_Grape aceepts the nuzzles and shakes her head, "D-did you have a dream?" She wasn't going to sleep for a while after her last dream
- 06[02:53] * +Sagittis braces himself and tries to jump through the window, into the room.
- 01[02:53] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off finds Ammy drinking in a shaky... as she sees the zebra, she sees again... Sandy, Staring at her... looking this time... sickly.
- [02:54] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Yeah." The unicorn flumps down on his rump next to Sour and leans against the wall. "Green was back, an' I bit 'er in the neck. Couldn't reach her ass."
- 06[02:54] * +Dust_Off freezes, "Sandy...you're dead." She says aloud and as firmly as she can manage.
- 06[02:55] * +Slag_Heap doesn't listen in. Listening in on private conversations is rude. He stairs up at the ceiling, thinking.
- 06[02:55] * +Sour_Grape frowns, "Should'a shot her..."
- 01[02:56] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis braces himself and attempts to jump through the window, instead the gurney rolls away as he jumps on it and goes to jump off of it, throwing his momentum off completely and smacking his face against the door and landing on the ground. Ow that hurt! His eyes closed, he hears the voice of the lead guard stallion say, "What in the Luna's good graces?! The fuck you doing colt?!" when he opens them, he sees the door is open, but he's staring at the ceiling, only seeing the face of the stallion as he looks down over him.
- 01[02:57] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sandy looks at Dust_Off and begs out pathetically in a weak, soft, cracking voice, "Dusty... h-help... p-please..." then falls to the ground convulsing. Ammy can hear Dust_Off speaking firmly.
- 06[02:57] * +Sagittis groans and holds his head. "Do you know any asshole unicorns who don't like the Juices?"
- 06[02:58] * +Roy_Calbeck rolls his eyes. "THAT, I did *first*."
- 06[02:58] * +Ammy looks up from her bottle at Dusty "Oh...hey Dusty...what's wrong?"
- 01[02:58] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard stallion offers a hoof to help Sagittis up and says, "Uh yeah. plenty... why?"
- 06[02:59] * +Sour_Grape nods slowly and slinks back further into her corner. "Hate this city..."
- 06[02:59] * +Dust_Off gasps and rushes over to Sandy's side. She starts digging around In her bags, "No, no, no, hold on. I can help. Don't leave me again, Sandy."
- 06[02:59] * +Roy_Calbeck rubs his head. "Plus she was all zombie-pony or somethin', talking about... a hall? Just a stupid nightmare."
- 06[02:59] * +Sagittis "I think one has decided to fuck with me." He gets back to his hooves.
- 01[03:00] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Ammy turns and sees Dust_Off rushing over to a filly looking positively bewildered as the pegasus mare comrade of hers begins digging in her bag, mumbling in a state of panic, 'Sandy' again. The filly looks like she's about to cry. Dust_Off's panic increases when she sees in her mind Sandy foaming at the mouth.
- 03[03:00] * Waak ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
- 06[03:01] * +Sour_Grape blinks, "Hollow awa-something?"
- 06[03:01] * +Ammy widens her eyes as Dust off flies past "What th fu...?" watching her in concern as she wrestles her bags "Dusty...?" she asks getting up from her seat and trotting slowly to her side
- 06[03:01] * +Roy_Calbeck nods, "Yeah, hollow weights..." He does a double-take. "Wait, what?"
- 06[03:01] * +Slag_Heap stares at the ceiling again. Oh how he looonged for a cigar right now.....
- 01[03:02] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard stallion gets Sagittis back to his hooves. The zebra colt sees the room, once again in fine condition, all guards present and Peach Nectar completely fine. The guard says, "Oh yeah? Is that why you and your friend are acting all weird?" Sagittis then sees a mirror behind all of them beginning to spell out letters backwards... in blood... no one in the room seems to take notice.
- 06[03:02] * +Sour_Grape "I... there was... he said 'hollow awa... something... right fore I woke up..."
- 06[03:02] * +Roy_Calbeck goes a little pale. Hard to tell, with him. "Hollow...awaits?"
- 06[03:03] * +Sour_Grape nods slowly, "Mighta been it..."
- 06[03:03] * +Roy_Calbeck throws up his hooves. "Aw, SHIT. Shared nightmares, now, is it? GAH!"
- 06[03:04] * +Roy_Calbeck flops over on his side. "I give up. I dun wanna share nightmares about Green. Nopony deserves that."
- 06[03:04] * +Slag_Heap looks over at Roy_Calbeck. "Shared nightmares?"
- 06[03:04] * +Sagittis ignores the mirror. "Yes."
- 06[03:04] * +Roy_Calbeck bleahs over-dramatically. "Yep."

- 07[03:07] * ChanServ sets mode: +o SilentBrony
- 06[03:08] * +Roy_Calbeck raises a prompting eyebrow at Sour_Grape.
- 02[03:08] * @NightmareBrony|GM ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
- 12[03:08] * SilentBrony is now known as NightmareBrony|GM
- 06[03:08] * +Sour_Grape stares at Roy_Calbeck and says nothing
- 06[03:09] * +Roy_Calbeck raises the other brow. Then waggles both, alternating.
- 06[03:09] * +Dust_Off pushes Ammy aside. "She's convulsing! Dammit I need anti-venom from Sagittis. Damn, colt!"
- 01[03:09] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard stallion blinks and looks at the colt saying, "Like how are you being fucked with then?" Sagittis ignores the mirror, but begins to see the window start to form blood itself now.
- 06[03:10] * +Sour_Grape mumbles, "Don't wanna talk 'bout it..."
- 06[03:11] * +Roy_Calbeck mms and gets back up onto his rump, then scooches over by Sour and just relaxes. "Okay."
- 06[03:11] * +Ammy moves back again "You did the same shit to me Dust_Off" she looks concerningly at Dust "Look at me Dusty, Look at me" she says with a slightly raised tone
- 06[03:12] * +Sagittis sits down by the mare. "Hallucinations. Most of 'em are transparent, but the last one was a case of better safe than sorry."
- 06[03:12] * +Dust_Off looks at Ammy, stricken with grief and panicking. "I can't lose her. I can't lose Sandy again."
- 06[03:13] * +Sour_Grape doesn't react much but scans the room from her corner, "Momma said always stand with your back to the corner. So you can see every entrance."
- 01[03:13] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The Lead guard stallion looks at Sagittis strangely and says, "Hallucinations? Really? If that's the case, a Unicorns gotta be nearby and at least lookin at ya... what do ya see?"
- 06[03:13] * +Roy_Calbeck nods sagely, closing his eyes. "Good tactical sense."
- 06[03:13] * +Ammy "Theres nopony there Dusty" she points at the area in which Dust was putting all her medical attention to "Sandy isn't there..."
- 06[03:14] * +Slag_Heap still stares.
- 06[03:15] * +Sagittis waves his hoof. "Cute nurse mare, bangs, scrapes, a fight going on in here... oh, and they hit me with a gurney."
- 01[03:15] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 There is actually a filly who is terrified out of her mind as some random strange pegasus mare started shouting about anti-venom. Dust_Off sees Sandy's eyes begin to roll back in her head, her spasms intensifying.
- 01[03:16] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The guard stallion speaking to Sagittis raises an eyebrow and says, "Hit you with a gurney? Why did you have it up against the door then?"
- 06[03:16] * +Roy_Calbeck looks at Sour. "Mind if I just sit here with ya a while?"
- 01[03:17] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The guard stallion rubs his head and adds, "Actually... now that I'm thinkin about it... /how/ did you get it up against the door?"
- 06[03:17] * +Sour_Grape nods, "Okay..." she sniffles a bit and rubs her eye... "Oh... I forgot..." she gets up and trots into the bathroom, coming out a few minutes later carrying Gwyen by the mouth. She sits back down in her corner and hugs the doll tightly.
- 06[03:17] * +Sagittis tilts his head. "It moved there when the fight illusion started."
- 06[03:18] * +Roy_Calbeck pretends not to notice, looking across the room at nothing and no one in particular.
- 06[03:18] * +Dust_Off looks at where Ammy's pointing. "There is someone there. Sandy's there." Tears rolling down her cheeks, "My Sandy...Ammy...she's..I need to." She reach down to hug 'Sandy.'
- 06[03:19] * +Slag_Heap continues to stare, then sighs and shakes his head, leaning forward in his chair.
- 01[03:19] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The stallion tilts his head and says to Sagittis, "You said hallucinations son... if it was, then that means it wasn't actually there... but there's a gurney right there and you had it pinned up the door, cause we tried to open the door when we heard it slam against the door." the stallion just look at the zebra colt strangely.
- 06[03:19] * +Sour_Grape doesn't even care at this point considering Roy already saw her piss herself. In measure of embarsssment Gwyen was lower. "Hate this city." She says yet a third time.
- 06[03:20] * +Ammy watches in sad futility as Dust moves to hug 'Sandy'
- 01[03:20] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Dust_Off leans down and hugs the filly, she lets out a shrill scream of terror and tries to desperately to get away from the crazy pegasus hugging her, "Help! I need an adult!" Dust_Off snaps out of her haze... realizing Sandy felt waaaay too small and cuddly... and... she didn't sound like a filly.
- [03:20] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Yeah, Grape... I think we all do."
- 06[03:20] * +Sagittis cocks an eyebrow. "Yeah, because a powerful illusionist could never use simple TK, right?"
- 01[03:21] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Slag_Heap, Roy_Calbeck, and Sour_Grape can hear the screaming downstairs.
- 06[03:21] * +Slag_Heap blinks and looks at the door. "...be right back." He gets up and leaves the room, heading downstairs, topless.
- 06[03:22] * +Roy_Calbeck perks up his ears and looks towards the door, then at Sour. "Wanna go check it out, or stay here?"
- 01[03:22] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard stallion looks contemplative in thought and says, "Huh... guess you're right... but... why would he be wanting to make you look crazy then?"
- 06[03:22] * +Slag_Heap heads into the barroom looking pissed and intimidating. "What's going on down here?"
- 06[03:22] * +Ammy blinks at the appearition "Where the...?" she grabs Dustys shoulder and pulls her off the Filly
- 06[03:23] * +Sour_Grape is not sure how a pony can be topless
- 06[03:23] * +Dust_Off lets go of the filly quickly, very shocked. "Sandy? Sandy!" She looks around.
- 06[03:23] * +Sour_Grape lower lip wibbles for a second and she turns to hug Roy, squishing Gwyen between them
- 06[03:23] * +Slag_Heap meant topless as in without the top part of his armour. He looks around and spots Dust_Off and Ammy. He walks over.
- 06[03:23] * +Roy_Calbeck cuddles the little filly up and squeezes gently, saying nothing.
- 01[03:24] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The terrified filly, scampers away from Dust_Off, a couple of patrons look at the mare strangely, a waiter approaches her and says with a frown, "Ma'am... please do not molest the foals..."
- 06[03:25] * +Slag_Heap frowns at Dust_Off. "This is getting bad. Real bad." He looks at the door. "Really really bad."
- 06[03:25] * +Sagittis shrugs again. "Could have a problem with working with Juices. Could have an issue with a group that works with zebras. Could be from one of the large number of folks we have messed up over the past few weeks. Hell, it could even be some punk, toying with us for kicks."
- 06[03:26] * +Dust_Off looks at the waiter, "I didn't molest anyfoal! I-I" She looks around quickly."
- 02[03:27] * +Ammy ([email protected]) Quit (Connection closed)
- 06[03:28] * +Slag_Heap looks at Dust_Off. "Captain... calm down." He always feared the day when he was the only one thinking straight...
- 06[03:29] * +Sour_Grape doesn't sob into Roy, but she does sniffle a bit
- 01[03:29] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off sees no Sandy... just a terrified filly rushing out the door.
- 06[03:30] * +Roy_Calbeck holds Sour close and warm until she feels like letting go.
- 06[03:30] * +Sagittis looks out from NightmareBrony|GM's computer screen poiniently at his last example.
- 06[03:31] * +Dust_Off squeezed her eyes shut, "Calm down? Oh, Murtaugh...I just can't...I have seen her in over a year, I'd...I'd thought i'd put myself back together... I miss her so much.."
- 06[03:33] * +Slag_Heap moves over to Dust_Off. "Dust off, you're not the only one. I havn't seen my wife in a good ten years. I still love her and I miss her. Lets just calm down, and take it slow, okay?"
- 01[03:33] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead stallion says, "Yes, but why not just... kill you guys? If you were really so hated, why go through all this trouble to make you look crazy?"
- 06[03:34] * +Dust_Off nods, "It's-it's not fungal
- 06[03:34] * +Slag_Heap nods. "It's never a fungal infection." He offers a hug.
- [03:34] <+Dust_Off> or cactus toxin, too-too directed. It's magical.."
- 01[03:35] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The snooty waiter approaches Dust_Off and Slag_Heap and ask, "You both seemed distressed... is there anything we may provide?"
- 06[03:35] * +Sagittis "No clue. As I said, could just be some ass out for kicks."
- 06[03:35] * +Sour_Grape lets go after a little bit, "Thanks..."
- 01[03:36] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sagittis speaks he sees the wall has a strange symbol smeared in blood right over Peach Nectar's bed... there is also another string of letters written backwards underneath the symbol.
- 06[03:36] * +Dust_Off takes the hug, "How would you*sniff* know? Fungi can be very pys-psy psychotropic."
- 06[03:36] * +Sagittis takes the time to read the letars and take in the symbol.
- 06[03:36] * +Roy_Calbeck lets Grape go, ruffling her mane with a smile. "Anytime."
- 06[03:37] * +Sour_Grape sniffles a little bit
- 01[03:37] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis notes the symbol is a large circle with an arrow running right in the middle of it, pointing directly up. The words written backwards say, 'ThE HoLLoW...'
- 06[03:37] * +Slag_Heap hugs the pegasus. "Because cacti aren't fungi, and fungi generally don't grow in deserts."
- [03:37] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Hey. Let's go see how Dusty's doin' okay?"
- 06[03:38] * +Sour_Grape blinks, "But my armours all... can't go down without armour..."
- 06[03:39] * +Sagittis rubs his chin. "The Hollow mean anything to you?"
- 01[03:39] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard stallion looks at Sagittis in stark confusion shaking his head... however the mare that liked Sagittis' is wide-eyed... her eyes full of fear.
- 06[03:40] * +Dust_Off shakes her head and hold tight to old
- [03:40] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Oh? Thought that was cleaned while you guys were at it. Well, let's go scrub it out then."
- [03:40] <+Dust_Off> buck, "Terri-terricolous fungi grows in deserts in the roots of shrubs..."
- 06[03:40] * +Sour_Grape just assumes it wasn't, oh well. "Okay..." she gets up, "No laughing..." she leads him to the bathroom
- 06[03:41] * +Sagittis looks up at the mare, making his eyes large again. "Do you know something about the thing that is picking on me, ma'am?"
- 06[03:41] * +Slag_Heap sighs. "Guess this is why I'm not a biologist, eh?" He pats her back. "I still say magic."
- 01[03:42] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The mare doesn't seem to be affected by Sagittis' expression, her face paling in sheer fear as she says out in a terrified tone, "D-D-DDon't g-go there! I-It's... I-It's h-horrible..." the rest of everyone in the room look at her in concern and surprise.
- 06[03:43] * +Sagittis gives the mare a reasonably tight hug. "What is it?"
- 06[03:43] * +Roy_Calbeck shrugs, saying nothing as he helps scrub out the bits of foulness and rinse them down the tub drain.
- 06[03:43] * +Sour_Grape lets Roy do all the work
- 06[03:43] * +Roy_Calbeck gives Sour a squint-eyed look.
- 06[03:44] * +Dust_Off lets go of Slag_Heap, "What do they want? Make fools of us? I was read to...malpractice on the filly."
- 06[03:44] * +Sour_Grape is too busy having sads to notice
- 01[03:44] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The terrifed guard mare clings to Sagittis, squeezing him uncomfortablly tight... if not for his armor and saddle, she's probably be choking the life out of the colt as she speaks aghast, "I-Its'... h-horrible... z-zombies... r-real ones... and g-g-g-gghosts... GHOSTS... T-They're /REAL/!" the other guards look at each other, with the lead guard stallion rolling his eyes and saying, "Oh Luna... not this shit again..."
- [03:45] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Here. You do half, I'll do half. Here's a trick you can do with saddle-soap, since we've got some." He works it into the underlining of the leather, kneading it until it's quite a bit softer and less likely to chafe.
- 06[03:45] * +Slag_Heap taps his chin. "I dunno, cap. I really don't know." He sighs and shakes his head. He looks back up, a cold expression on his face. "But when I find them, I won't stop until every bone in their body is broken."
- 06[03:46] * +Sour_Grape helps then. Fine. Make the sad filly work. Look how sad she is
- 06[03:47] * +Roy_Calbeck helps the sad filly work and get her mind off being sad, as best he can.
- 06[03:47] * +Sagittis is unnaturally strong and durable. He hugs the mare back, careful not to hurt her. "What again?" he asks her boss."
- [03:48] <+Roy_Calbeck> "That's it. Always check under the pleats, too, little bugs just love to hide there an' chew on yer tail when yer not lookin'."
- 06[03:49] * +Sour_Grape nods and checks onder the pleats. "Like the bugs though. They're my pets."
- 06[03:49] * +Roy_Calbeck blinks at that. "Ooookay."
- 01[03:50] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard stallion says, "The Hollow..." he says it in a mock concending spooky tone, then adds, "Is a foals tale. Stories of horrible visions... deepest fears being brought to life. Zombies... there's said to be a place nearby Dune that lures naughty foals if they don't behave and listen to their parents... bascially we tell small foals to make sure they don't go exploring the Blasted Sands." The mare blurts out at the guard leader, "IT'S THERE THOUGH! IT'S AN ACTUAL PLACE!"
- 06[03:50] * +Sour_Grape doesn't understand how hygene works, or is spelled. "What?"
- [03:50] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Bugs as pets? Bleah!"
- 06[03:51] * +Sour_Grape frowns, "Whats wrong with bugs? They're nice..."
- 01[03:51] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The guard stallion frowns and places a hoof on the mare saying, "Calm... down... or else you're going to be relieved and be cut a weeks worth of rations."
- 06[03:51] * +Roy_Calbeck pffts. "Bugs have too many legs an' hafta die. Especially spiders."
- 06[03:51] * +Sour_Grape only dislikes ants, "They're cute..."
- 06[03:51] * +Dust_Off rubs shaking hoof over her mane, "We-we can't wait. We need to bring this to Guava. We need resources. If anything, this may be a threat to him or at least incurred in his duty."
- 06[03:52] * +Slag_Heap nods. "I'll get my... chest peice..." he sighs, remembering he hadn't cleaned it. "Just gimme time to hose it down." He gives her a small smile. "You gonna be alright?"
- 12[03:52] * Waak is now known as Waak_AsCII
- [03:53] <+Roy_Calbeck> "What, spiders? Cute?"
- 06[03:53] * +Sour_Grape nods at Roy_Calbeck as she cleans, "Uh huh."
- 06[03:53] * +Roy_Calbeck gives Sour a playful poke. "YOU'RE a bug!"
- 06[03:53] * +Sour_Grape pffts and rolls her eyes, "I'm not cute."
- [03:54] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Fillyus buggicus armorius shotgun. Betcha Dusty has you in a textbook somewhere."
- 06[03:54] * +Sour_Grape gives a dramatic sigh, "Dusty has a textbock on just about everything and everyone. Such an egghead."
- 06[03:55] * +Roy_Calbeck sits back with a rather more eloquent sigh, "Yeah. Yeah she is."
- 06[03:56] * +Roy_Calbeck stops, blushes slightly around the nose, and then busies himself in polishing a greave rather more than it needs.
- 06[03:56] * +Sagittis cocks an eyebrow. "That reminds me of some of the horror stories some of the elders would tell. Evil enchantress, filly stews, the dead walking... Unicorn magic can get just as freaky as zebra can... so there may be something to this."
- 06[03:56] * +Sour_Grape looks up at Roy, and blinks, "Weirdo... we done cleanin' yet?
- 06[03:57] * +Roy_Calbeck looks around at all the shiny shiny armor bits. "Guess we are."
- 01[03:58] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The guard stallion just scrunches his face in disbelief and says, "Really? Well if you really think so, talk to her, she claims to--" getting cut off the mare shakes her head and exclaims loudly, "NO! Don't go there! It's NOT SAFE! You'll go crazy and then die! Oh Goddesses... why did I even say it existed?!" the mare begins to panic.
- 06[03:58] * +Sour_Grape nods and dries it with a dryer or something, "Do you know... what could be causin' this all shit?"
- 06[03:58] * +Roy_Calbeck shrugs. "Seems like magic, t'me. Not so much 'what' as 'who'."
- 06[04:00] * +Sour_Grape "Magic's dumb..."
- [04:00] <+Sour_Grape> '... No offense...
- 01[04:00] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Dust_Off speaks to Slag_Heap, she sees a mirror behind the barshelves begin to pour blood... words begin to form backwards over and over, covering the mirror itself.
- 06[04:00] * +Sagittis holds onto the mare and tries to coax her to lay down. "Well, ghouls exist, you history is full of malefic spirits and the Equestria is flooded with life warping magical fallout (title drop), is it really that much of a stretch?"
- [04:00] <+Roy_Calbeck> "None taken."
- 03[04:00] * Pantzar ([email protected]) has joined #FalloutEquestriaPNP
- 06[04:01] * +Roy_Calbeck helps wipe down the armor with a towel to speed things up.
- 06[04:01] * +Sour_Grape puts on the armour... and then stows Gwyen away, "Downstairs then..."
- 06[04:01] * +Dust_Off looks wide eyed at the mirror.
- 01[04:01] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The terrified guard mare isn't having it, as she resists Sagittis' attempts and says in a panic, "But these are different! Please!" she pleads desperately, "Don't g-go!"
- 06[04:01] * +Slag_Heap looks from Dust_Off to the mirror behind him. "What're we lookin at?"
- 06[04:02] * +Dust_Off points at the
- 06[04:02] * +Roy_Calbeck nods and walks with the (omgclean!) filly downstairs to the main room.
- [04:02] <+Dust_Off> mirror, "It's dripping...blood..."
- 01[04:02] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Dust_Off look at the mirror she sees in blood written over and over again, "ThE HoLLoW" When Slag_Heap looks, he sees his wife's severed head resting imbetween the bottles... as well as some of his old buddies during his... earlier days.
- 06[04:03] * +Sour_Grape is clean again. One of the reasons she hated this town
- 06[04:03] * +Sagittis "I never said I was going to. I am trying to get your boss to believe you. If he believes you, he won't go and he will tell others not to. Now please, calm down."
- 01[04:03] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap does NOT see blood on the mirrors, just the heads... the HEADS...
- [04:03] <+Dust_Off> "The Hollow, The Hollow, The Hollow, The Hollow, The Hollow..." She reads dully.
- 06[04:04] * +Slag_Heap looks at the mirror. His eyes grow very wide, and he goes rigid. "Daisy..." he whispers. He looks from head to head, whispering thier names. He stares for what seems like an eternity. "No..." Tears are brimming on his eyes. "N...no...."
- 06[04:05] * +Sour_Grape looks around, "Dust, Slag? Are ya two okay?"
- 01[04:05] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The snooty waiter looks at Dust_Off and Slag_Heap strangely then looks at the barshelves. Eyeing it oddly, he looks back to the two and asks, "Are you... both thirsty perhaps?"
- 06[04:06] * +Slag_Heap just stares. "D-Daisy...m-my Daisy..." he whispers in a shuddering voice.
- [04:06] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Th' hollow what?"
- 01[04:06] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard stallion rolls his eyes and says, "Trust me kid, it don't exist. No such things as ghosts... now ghouls... yeah I can believe that... but not all ghouls are bad. And the fact she's saying... 'Zombie' isn't really all that good."
- 06[04:06] * +Dust_Off sits there looking at the bloody words, a chill washing over her. She shivers as she sits. "What do you want?!" She yells at the mirror. "You're mining in our minds! You're comminicating! What! Do! You! Want?!"
- 06[04:07] * +Roy_Calbeck trots over to Dust_Off and stands beside her, just inside the pegasus' peripheral vision.
- 01[04:08] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The snooty waiter gasps in surprise at the sudden yelling, trotting backwards and slipping on the rug, falling backwards and waving his forelegs about. When he does, the images both Dust_Off and Slag_Heap see vanish, as the waiter lands on his back with an 'oof!'
- 06[04:08] * +Dust_Off looks at Roy straight on for a moment and prods him with a hoof.
- [04:08] <+Roy_Calbeck> "I'm here. You're okay."
- 06[04:09] * +Slag_Heap stares for a long moment after that, tears in his eyes. He clamps his eyes shut and grits his teeth. He turns and makes a bee line for the exit of the inn.
- 06[04:10] * +Dust_Off looks out after Slag. She doesn't get up. "Ae-we need to talk to Gauva...we need help. This concerns him as much as us."
- 01[04:10] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap dramatically exits the inn and sees once he's outside Daisy being dragged with a rope around her neck, by a shrouded equine figure... slowly... a trail of blood staining her body and white dress which is mainly red and slick with blood.
- 06[04:10] * +Roy_Calbeck nods and steps aside for Dusty to lead the way.
- 06[04:11] * +Slag_Heap "NO!" He screams and chases down the pony, rage flaring in his eyes. He looked like a rabid monster on the loose as he tries to tackle the pony.
- 06[04:12] * +Sour_Grape blinks at Slag_Heap leaves, "Eeeeeh? Shoudl we follow him?"
- 06[04:12] * +Dust_Off gets up, forcing herself to her hooves. She goes out after Slag_Heap, dragged on by the Chains of Commanding. She pouts. Those weren't even the fun sort of chains."
- 06[04:12] * +Roy_Calbeck flattens his ears at the shout from outside, and runs out to see what's going on...
- 06[04:12] * +Sagittis looks over to the lead stallion. "Now this is the last place I would expect political correctness." He shakes his head. "I get where you are coming from, but with whatever it is messing with my head, I can see where she is coming from too."
- 01[04:12] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Dust_Off and Roy_Calbeck trot outside, they see Slag_Heap in sheer rage tackle a brahmin tied up to a caravan harness, pulling a wagon... a small group of ponies stare at him in awe, while a dinky looking guard pulls out a pistol and shouts out in a nasly voice, "Hey! Stop! Get off our brahmin!" The poor brahmin lows out in terror at the crazy stallion.
- 01[04:13] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Slag_Heap continues to assualt the robed equine figure, unable to see his face due to his black cloak.
- 06[04:13] * +Slag_Heap slams his heavy hooves into the pony, roaring in anger.
- [04:13] <+Dust_Off> "R-Roy, g-g-get him!" She manages to say.
- 06[04:15] * +Roy_Calbeck runs after Slag, yelling, "Atten-HUT!"\
- 01[04:15] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead stallion groans and says, "Really? Kid, you really had me goin, but everypony knows 'The Hollow' is just a foals tale. Wherever this place is, we've never been able to find it. Your best bet is to just forget about it."
- 06[04:15] * +Slag_Heap isn't listening, instead in a blood lust. "Don't! Touch! My! Wife!" He roars.
- [04:16] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Didn't think that would work." The run becomes a charge, and then a tackle, trying to shove the bigger pony off the poor brahmin.
- 01[04:18] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The robed stallion in black actually begins to laugh as he's being assaulted in Slag_Heap's mind. It had the audacity... to not only drag his wife, but laugh... Roy_Calbeck manages to blow by the dinky guard, causing him to fall over in surprise as he tackles the crazy bald stallion. Going into a tumble from the unexpected blow, both Slag_Heap and Roy_Calbeck roll around... as the ex-soldier blinks, he realizes that he's not attacking an evil black robed equine, but now has one of his teammates on him. Looking over at the equine figure, now shows the brahmin and crew...
- 06[04:18] * +Sagittis nods to him. "Well, when it stops writing its name in blood on the walls I'll consider it." He notes what direction the arrow is pointing. "Now how long does it take to give a filly a bath? Holy hell."
- 01[04:19] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard says, "Right, show me these walls and I'll believe ya colt." when Sagittis looks, the arrow points straight up.
- 06[04:20] * +Slag_Heap blinks, breathing heavily. "Shit..." he mutters, his voice ragged and his throat sore. "I... I need to beat something..." he looks at the group and shoves Roy_Calbeck off. "We need to kill this thing." He looks at the brahmin group. "Sorry." He starts his march to the Juice's manor, muttering and grumbling, stomping and swearing. His muscular torso bulging with a blood lust.
- 06[04:21] * +Dust_Off shakes her head and looks at the guard. "I'm sorry it's a spell of some sort not contagious."
- 06[04:21] * +Sagittis rolls his eyes. "I don't expect you to be able to see them. I had no idea what the Hollow was until a little bit ago. Something is at least using the myth to freak equines out."
- 06[04:22] * +Sour_Grape stays close to Dust_Off as she waits outside, "Where's Sagi?"
- 01[04:22] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The dazed guard shakes his head and gets up, with the caravaneer ponies rushing over the brahmin... the poor two headed bull has one head spewed obscenities at Slag_Heap, while the other weeps and sobs, quibbling it's lip.
- 06[04:22] * +Roy_Calbeck follows, bobbing his head to the guard as well. "Specifically, sun stroke. Poor bastard's been out there a week now. Here, lemme make it up to ya." He floats a box of Apple Sugar Bombs over. "For the trouble."
- 01[04:23] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The dinky guard blinks as he's given the apple bombs... all he manages to say is, "What in the--?" in sheer confusion.
- 06[04:23] * +Roy_Calbeck trots away.
- 06[04:23] * +Sour_Grape "Thanks Dust..."
- 06[04:24] * +Slag_Heap stomps on the pavement as he marches to the manor, giving anypony a warning glare.
- 06[04:24] * +Dust_Off looks at Grape, "We don't know. He might have stayed at the hospital. He was being an insubordant, little so and so. Didn't think we should abandon mission you were catonic."
- 01[04:25] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Everypony, save for Sagittis, makes their way to the Juice manor, now at the front gate, the guards look at the enraged and distraught group quizzically.
- 06[04:25] * +Sour_Grape "He's stubborn... mayb the mind thing was messin' wit'em? We should check on him..."
- 06[04:26] * +Roy_Calbeck trots along on Slag's outside line, keeping an eye on the big guy.
- 01[04:27] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The Lead guard stallion responds to Sagittis, "Not 'used to' it still is colt. You'll never find the place, everytime anyone's tried they've never found it.
- 06[04:27] * +Dust_Off is following Heap to ensure he doesn't piss off the nice highly influential family. To the guards, she says, "We need to talk to Mister Guava Juice immediately. We have a problem.." To grape she says, "We're in no condition to do anything....i almost hugged a filly with needles...."
- 06[04:28] * +Sour_Grape "So... Sagi could be like this too... and we're just leaving him alone? This is the stupidest idea..."
- 01[04:28] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The guard blinks and says, "Alright... c'mon in, we'll get the boss." the gate opens and the group is allowed admittanced once more into the manor.
- 06[04:29] * +Slag_Heap looks at Dust_Off and jerks his head to the manor, motioning for her to take point.
- 01[04:30] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sagittis swears he's hearing whispers... constant ones... that won't shut up... he can't even understand what they're saying.
- 01[04:31] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Slag_Heap points, he sees a large symbol right over the Juice manor double doors, smeared in blood... strangely... everyone else can see the same symbol too before entering.
- 06[04:31] * +Sagittis tilts his head at the lead guard. "What?" He hadn't said anything about 'used to' in the sense of past use. He had stated that something was using the myth in order to do something. He grumbles at the whispering, but tries to ignore them.
- 06[04:31] * +Dust_Off walks into manor, shaking still. She keeps focused straight ahead. She doesn't want to catch a glimpse of ANYTHING.
- 06[04:32] * +Slag_Heap looks at the symbol, then growls.
- 06[04:32] * +Sour_Grape walks beside Dust_Off so close she brushes against her leg. She wanted to go make sure Sagi was okay, but didn't really want to run off alone
- 01[04:33] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Dust_Off tries her hardest to ignore the large symbol of blood directly over the Juice manor door, but she catches it anyway... that symbol was definitely not there before. Sour_Grape and Roy_Calbeck can see this as well.
- 06[04:34] * +Dust_Off whimpers as she looks up at the symbol. She didn't like mysterious insignia anymore...
- 06[04:34] * +Sour_Grape stares at the symbol... and shrugs. Blood didn't scare her, and that was pretty week. If they were trying to scare here they could at least hang a few intestines around
- 06[04:34] * +Roy_Calbeck peers closely at the symbol. "Well fuck me with a hockey stick."
- 01[04:35] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sagittis looks and speaks to the lead guard, the whispering gets louder, and he can only begin to scantly understand the words the stallion spoke, "...ony worth their s... ... ould believ.... ...ol's tale."
- 01[04:36] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The symbol is the exact same symbol Sagittis saw, with the large circle and a vertical arrow running right through the middle of the circle, pointing directly up.
- 06[04:36] * +Sour_Grape looks up
- 01[04:37] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Sour_Grape, Dust_Off, Slag_Heap, and Roy_Calbeck are now inside the manor once more, as Guava Juice makes his way down, still clad in his bathrobe. His .45 SMG... was now replaced with... a pony heart? That was still beating? The entire group saw this...
- 06[04:37] * +Roy_Calbeck cocks his head. "Looks like an elevator's 'up' button."
- 06[04:38] * +Sour_Grape sees the pony heart... and shrugs. What no brains?
- 06[04:38] * +Slag_Heap 's face scrushes up into an intimidating sneer. He gives a low growl.
- 06[04:38] * +Dust_Off looks at Guava's new accessory and blinks, "Not real, not real, not real."
- 06[04:38] * +Roy_Calbeck gives with a distinct 'ew' at the pony-heart apparition.
- 01[04:39] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice blinks and frowns at Slag_Heap, stomping an aged hoof hard on the ground and saying, "Hey! Cut that disgusting look offa yer face before I wipe it off fer ya... What the fuck is goin on now?!"
- 06[04:40] * +Slag_Heap narrows his eyes, just getting more pissed.
- 06[04:40] * +Sagittis "Aw crap. Excuse me for a moment. It is hijacking my ears. We can continue when I get them back." He attempts to do a front hoof stand, as he does not have a bamboo poll at the moment, and starts some deep breathing in an attempt to meditate.
- 01[04:40] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The normal four body guards in Guava's room also look at Slag_Heap, each readying their weaponry.
- 06[04:41] * +Roy_Calbeck waves a hoof at Slag, then at the guards. "Whoa, whoa whoa. We're here because somethin' REALLY weird's ahoof."
- 06[04:41] * +Dust_Off clears her throat, "S-Since we talked all of our team has been beset by targeted illusions all thing deeply emotional to us." She stops and looks over at Slag_Heap, "Snap out of it!"
- 06[04:41] * +Roy_Calbeck turns and stands in front of Slag. "C'mon, soldier, snap to."
- 06[04:41] * +Slag_Heap slowly, very slowly, relaxes. Not a lot, but he relaxes.
- 06[04:42] * +Sour_Grape adds, "Something about 'The Hollow...'. It's a super dick..."
- 06[04:42] * +Roy_Calbeck gives the big guy a hoofbump on the shoulder.
- 06[04:42] * +Slag_Heap tenses, then looks at Roy_Calbeck, rage in his eyes. He looks back, relaxing a little more.
- 01[04:43] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice squints at Sour_Grape and rubs an ear with a hoof saying, "Whaa? I didn't get that, What the fuck is goin on? And why is he acting all fuckin weird?"
- 06[04:43] * +Roy_Calbeck nods reassuringly.
- 06[04:43] * +Sour_Grape "Huh... we keep... 'The Halow awaits' things keep... that message keeps appearin..."
- 01[04:44] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The guards standing around Sagittis look at him weird, with the lead one saying, "Look... do that shit outside, It's startin to get late and Peach Nectar's gonna need to sleep."
- 06[04:45] * +Dust_Off nods to Guava, "I saw it in blood on the inn's mirror. They're illusions, magical of some sort. Individual AND shared illusions. It started as we came into town."
- 01[04:45] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice looks... very unamused as the guards around him begin to laugh.... loudly. For half a minute they laugh, until Guava turns and glares at one of them, causing that guard to stop and clear his throat loudly, ceasing laughter from the rest.
- 06[04:46] * +Sour_Grape frowns and inches closer to Dust_Off. She didn't find it funny at all.
- 01[04:47] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The Dune boss then looks back at Sour_Grape and then looks to Dust_Off saying , "Your fuckin kidding me right? What dipshit told you that foals tale?" his voice... is the absolute epitomy of humorless.
- 06[04:47] * +Sagittis blinks from his inverted stance. "Oh, I can hear you agan. Wonderful. Now, as you want me to leave, would you like me to take the lady there," he points to the panicked guard, "with me?"
- 06[04:48] * +Sour_Grape blinks at Guava, "The fuck do you mean 'foals tail'?"
- 01[04:48] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The panicked guard looks at Sagittis and shakes her head saying, "N-No... I'm /never/ going there... and you s-should f-forget too! Just... s-say it's a dream... j-just a dream is all..." the lead guard facehoofs.
- 06[04:49] * +Dust_Off blushes she knows it sounds insane, but does her best glare at the guards as well, "I watched my dead lover die again slowly this time. Her image superimposed on a filly i almost stabbed with needles thinking I was treating a convulsing mare." She looks back at Guava, "No one, i have no idea what is going on. We saw all this insanity and the onlu consistent communication has been "The Hollow.""
- 06[04:49] * +Roy_Calbeck keeps his voice neutral. "If all we heard was a story, we wouldn't be bothering you. Somepony is screwing with us, and we were hoping you could point so we could shoot."
- 06[04:49] * +Sagittis "Relax. We are just going out into the hall."
- 06[04:50] * +Slag_Heap "Or crush." He growls.
- 01[04:52] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice takes a couple steps closer to the group and shakes his head saying, "There's no such place. It don't exist. The Dune families have looked all over this fucking place for it. Just overly active chem addicts, strung out, telling wild tales of ghosts and other brahmin shit. We've never found any blood symbols or anything. It's simply a foals tale to keep foals from exploring the Blasted Sands."
- 06[04:52] * +Sour_Grape "Blasted sands?"
- 01[04:53] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The panicking guard mare shakes her head and says to Sagittis, "No! I-I want to stay in here, I'll /never/ go t-t-to t-that place."
- 01[04:54] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice replies, "The big fuckin desert ya need a guide ta cross wit'? It's fuckin huge."
- 06[04:54] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "Any of your enemies have the resources to get a couple of talented illusionists?"
- 06[04:54] * +Sour_Grape nods, "And ponies get lost out there?"
- 06[04:55] * +Sagittis flops back down and goes over to the mare, curling up down at her hooves. "Okay. We don't need to go anywhere. Come on. Settle down. I'm comfy."
- 01[04:56] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice looks at Roy_Calbeck and says, "Nothin on the crap I've heard. Such stupid stories just like the ones yer tellin me now." Looking back to Sour_Grape he says, "Course, all da fuckin time. Mainly idiots that think they dun need no guide."
- 06[04:57] * +Sour_Grape "Aaaaand, to take a wild guess. The Hollow is like, at the center of the desert, but nopony what tried to go there ever comes back?"
- 01[04:57] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard stallion looks at Sagittis and says, "Look... you scared the shit outta her with bringing up that damn thing." again Sagittis begins to hear more whispering, quiet at first once more.
- 06[04:58] * +Roy_Calbeck looks an aside at Dust_Off. Sotto voce, "Think our old illusionist friend might know a pony who knows a pony?"
- 01[04:59] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice replies, "No, there actually is somethin in the center of the Blasted Sands, but nopony that's ever went there has ever lived ta talk 'bout it. No, this... 'The Hollow'... can't be found... the only thing we know it's supposed to be along the mountain Dune is next too."
- 06[04:59] * +Sagittis "And now I am trying to fix it. She was scared that I would go or make her go. Staying put may be the best thing to do tp o calm her down." He looks around. "At least until my comrades get back from the longest shower ever."
- 01[05:01] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Roy_Calbeck speaks to Dust_Off, he sees another mirror next to a nightstand with Green staring at him, with hateful eyes, grinning malevolently at him...
- 06[05:01] * +Dust_Off looks at Roy and whispers, "Jazz might know something?"
- 06[05:01] * +Sour_Grape nods a little bit, "I see..."
- [05:01] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Maybe. If nothin' else, the Juices *don't* know. Except maybe Peach...?"
- 06[05:01] * +Roy_Calbeck snorts slightly at the mirror, as though at a pesky fly.
- 01[05:03] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Sour_Grape hears a faint whisper speaking in a chilling smooth voice, "Little foal playing her game..."
- 06[05:03] * +Sour_Grape freezes up and moves close enough to dust that she's practically underneath the pegasexy
- 01[05:05] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice blinks and tilts his head at Sour_Grape... the stallion actually finds it... fairly adorable as he says in a softer tone, "Look... I'm just... under a lot of shit... and I need to make sure none of ya are hiked up chem junkies or crazies... is all. Nopony in Dune is gunna believe a damn Foal's tale... least none of the other families."
- 01[05:05] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Again the voice speaking to Sour_Grape whispers, "Little foal, hiding her shame..."
- 06[05:06] * +Sour_Grape ears twitch, "It's not a foals talr! it's... it's real... keep talking to me shutupshutupshutup." She covers her ears
- 01[05:07] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The lead guard shakes his head and says, "Colt... you're not helping by doing weird shit and saying things about that... I think it's best you either go find your buddies or wait outside... if they've been gone /this/ long in Dune, it /can't/ be good."
- 06[05:07] * +Dust_Off looks down and hugs the filly. "Mister Juice, do your tests. The filly is addicted to Mintals, Mister heap to nicotine, but the rest of us are cleans and we're all showing symptoms." She leans down and shushes the filly. "It's okay, Grape. Dusty's here."
- 06[05:07] * +Roy_Calbeck nods. "Fair enough. Pretty sure it's somepony exploiting the tales to undermine your hired help. If you don't know, then it's best we be off to find out."
- 01[05:07] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The whispering is getting louder again to Sagittis, making hearing difficult.
- 06[05:09] * +Sagittis gets up and pats the mare on the back. "Take care of them. Okay?" He heads to the door.
- 06[05:09] * +Sour_Grape would complain about the mint-al thing but she's busy going crazy
- 01[05:11] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Guava Juice looks over at Dust_Off for a moment, then turns to Roy_Calbeck and says, "Yeah.. that'd be fer the best..." rubbing his forehead with a fetlock in visible stress he says, "Please... tell me yer jokin... actually I can believe it... Luna knows there's enough foal addicts in Dune alone..."
- 06[05:12] * +Roy_Calbeck nickers to the rest of the group. "C'mon, let's go... we need ta get to the bottom of this."
- 06[05:14] * +Slag_Heap follows. "And quick." He mutters.
- 01[05:14] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Roy_Calbeck nickers and turns to look at the rest of the group, he sees each of them horribly flayed and mutliated to a degree... blood strewn about over their equipment and the floor. Takin back by the image of them all dead, he blinks once and the image fades... though the sight was still unsettling to have witnessed.
- 06[05:15] * +Sour_Grape has no plans to leave her hiding place under Dust_Off, so there she stays
- 01[05:15] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The mare shudders slightly and looks at Sagittis as he leaves with fear-induced pleading eyes. Once outside of the room, the whispers are full blown... indecipherable.. it was maddening to listen to them... they never stopped.
- 06[05:16] * +Dust_Off glares at Roy, "Go where? The Hollow? We're in damnedably poor condition to walk to inn let alone anything else."
- 06[05:16] * +Roy_Calbeck stifles a groan, draws himself up, and starts moving. "We had an interview before we were interrupted with th' first part of this, Captain..."
- 06[05:19] * +Sagittis groans and curls up and starts mumbling a chant he heard from some of the older zebras who told the ghost stories. "Mimi kujenga hewa giza kwamba scours nchi na kuharibu akili."
- 06[05:19] * +Dust_Off looks at him blankly, "Gunny, we need to find Sagittis and stop this. Any interview we might perform is going to rambling, babbling, and interrupted with various meme
- [05:19] <+Dust_Off> members losing their minds."
- [05:19] <+Roy_Calbeck> "An' he's at th' hospital with our interviewee, ma'am."
- 06[05:19] * +Sour_Grape "I thought you said sagi is at the clinic?"
- 06[05:21] * +Dust_Off blinks, "I don't know that! But fine, let's go." She lets go of Grape and backs up before kneeling down. "Climb on, Grape."
- 06[05:21] * +Sagittis "Mimi kujenga moto njaa ambayo teketezwa mnyama na kuharibu mwili."
- 06[05:22] * +Sour_Grape climbs on to Dust_Off's back at the prompting and wraps her forelegs around Dust_Off's neck. "We... we gunna find this thing an' kill it? please..."
- 06[05:22] * +Roy_Calbeck leads the group out of the manor and off to the clinic, keeping himself focused with old military tunes sung just under the breath.
- 06[05:23] * +Slag_Heap grumbles and growls as he walks.
- [05:23] <+Roy_Calbeck> o/` March, th' mud is cak-ed good around our trousers / Front, eyes front, an' watch th' color-casings drip / Front, th' faces of the fillies in their houses / Ain't, th' kinda sight to take aboard the ship...
- 01[05:23] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Sagittis continues to reel under the whispering and mumble a chant, he hears Sour_Grape's voice say, "Hey, what the fuck are you doing you freak? Speak regular talk!"
- [05:24] <+Roy_Calbeck> o/` Cheer, we'll never march to victory! / Cheer, we'll never live ta hear th' cannons roar / Th' large birds of prey / They will carry us away / An' you'll never see yer soldiers any-more...
- 06[05:24] * +Roy_Calbeck mutters the rest of the lyrics rather more quietly.
- [05:24] <+Dust_Off> "We will, and I'll let you dance on its corpse." The mare is shivering a little. She didn't want leave the comfort of the well guarded compound of ponies that had some bested interest in their well being.
- 06[05:25] * +Sagittis grits his teeth and keeps on going, as the whispers are still there. "Nakuamuru nguvu inayobadili mimea kwa majivu."
- 01[05:25] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 A cold wind... colder than they've felt so far this day, blows as Roy_Calbeck sings, assaulting each member of the party with a gust of cold air. It was... unnaturally cold... unpleasant...
- 06[05:26] * +Slag_Heap bristles and growls.
- 06[05:26] * +Dust_Off shivers, but she still throws her wings up to shield the filly on her back.
- 06[05:26] * +Sour_Grape shivers and hugs Dust_Off tighter for warmth
- [05:27] <+Dust_Off> "There...there is a consideration i have not voiced." She says through chattering teeth.
- 01[05:27] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Again Sagittis hears Sour_Grape's voice speak harshly to him, "Of course, ignore me, go do your own fucking thing like you always do." accompanying her is Dust_Off's voice that speaks in a condencinding tone to the zebra colt, "You look ridiculous... get up, others are gonna think we're nuts."
- 06[05:28] * +Slag_Heap 's hind hoof rattles as it connects with pavement.
- 06[05:28] * +Sour_Grape "W-what?'
- 01[05:28] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The group make their way to the clinic... seeing the doors of the clinc completely barred and nailed shut... the windows in a similar fashion... What the fuck?
- 06[05:28] * +Sagittis starts putting his armor back on, doing his best to ignore the voices. "Nakuamuru nguvu inayobadili maji kwa sumu."
- 06[05:29] * +Roy_Calbeck pours forth verse after queit verse of depressing, defeatist, almost suicidal prose --- but into each stanza goes a hard measure of defiance, as though the troops that once sang the tune knew their doom and were determined to barrel their way through it regardless.
- 06[05:30] * +Roy_Calbeck goes right up and knocks on the door.
- 01[05:30] <@NightmareBrony|GM> As Sagittis puts his armor on, Dust_Off's voice continues, "Seriously, we might have the Juice's favor, but we're in Sugar territory." Roy_Calbeck's voice then speaks up, "Hey you didn't talk to Peach Nectar did you?"
- 06[05:30] * +Slag_Heap growls. "If that doesn't work, I'm tearing it the fuck down, real or no."
- 01[05:30] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 The real Roy_Calbeck knocks on the door but gets no response, other than a strange low groan...
- 06[05:31] * +Dust_Off stops and looks at the hospital. "I don't necessarily blieve in ghosts..but temperature changes are said to precede manifestations..."
- 06[05:31] * +Roy_Calbeck pushes on the door.
- 06[05:31] * +Sagittis takes a swig of water and continues. "Mimi mtazamo maumivu nikatandika na uharibifu mimi wito nje."
- 06[05:32] * +Sour_Grape "Momma said that ghosts can die too if ya shoot'em ahrd nough..."
- 01[05:33] <@NightmareBrony|GM> The real Roy_Calbeck pushes on the door but just gets a similar response... though now blood was beginning to pour out from the boarded cracks and underneath the door itself, causing a running current along each standing member's hooves... staining... warm... ohhh why was it warm?
- 06[05:33] * +Slag_Heap huffs. "Fake." He mutters. "Don't let it get to you."
- 06[05:33] * +Sour_Grape blinks at the blood, "Looks fresh..." She'd know that
- 06[05:34] * +Roy_Calbeck turns about and, injecting a sarcastic note into the song, begins bucking the door as hard as he can. "COME! For Discord's not so black as he is pain-ted / CHEER! We'll have some fun, before we're put away! / LORD! Now hand 'er out, a wife has gone an' fainted / COME! Get on, gods help th' married bucks t'day!"
- 01[05:34] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Suddenly Green's voice speaks to Sagittis, saying in a cryptically threatening tone, "You... I knew I'd find my traitorous side-kick here still... of all places too..."
- 06[05:34] * +Dust_Off nods, "It's oxygenated, arterial flow." She would know.
- 06[05:36] * +Sagittis falters for a moment and snorts. "Hooves yangu ni milele kubadilika na damu."
- 01[05:36] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Roy_Calbeck bucks the door, it feels wrong, as he hears loud metallic clanging, the sound so loud is causes all outside to wince and shut their eyes in recoil. When they reopen, they notice the clinic is back to it's normal self, though now the front door sported a nasty dent.
- [05:37] <+Roy_Calbeck> "Hmph! Thought that'd do it."
- 06[05:37] * +Sour_Grape "That'll buff right out...'
- 06[05:37] * +Roy_Calbeck goes on in.
- 06[05:37] * +Dust_Off looks around, "Great plan, Gunny. We could have sent for Sagittis."
- [05:37] <+Roy_Calbeck> "He's inside, last I saw."
- 01[05:38] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Green's voice growls out, "I trusted you... an evil zebra at that... let you fight the good fight with me... just so you can betray me... shoot your cannon at me... you coward... You're a weak, pathetic, sniveling, traitorous, COWARD." the voice shouts the last word right next to the colt. As the rest of the group trots into the clinc, the receptionist mare looking startled and saying, "What in blazes?!"
- 06[05:39] * +Roy_Calbeck trots past the desk and up the stairs. "Mass hallucination in progress, pardon us, coming through."
- 06[05:39] * +Dust_Off follows in, "Gunny, we just this building boarded up and flowing blood. Seeing is not reliable."
- 06[05:40] * +Slag_Heap 's hind hoof cracks a tile in the clinic floor as he walks through.
- 06[05:40] * +Sagittis growls. "Roho yangu ni ya milele tainted na uovu." Not real. Nope, nope, nope. But the fucker behind this was. He could growl at that...
- [05:40] <+Roy_Calbeck> "That was before all this started, ma'am. That's my last trustworthy recollection of his location."
- 06[05:41] * +Roy_Calbeck is lying like a Hellhound, but that's his story and he's sticking to it.\
- 01[05:42] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Greens voice says arctically to Sagittis, "Growl all you want, but it's true. You're just a scared little foal, who's also a big giant liar hypocrite! Just wait till daddy finds /this/ out.... the rest of the group trot up the staircase and find the zebra colt mumbling to himself, in a vacant hallway.
- [05:44] <+Sour_Grape> ,says to Sagittis, "Hey, what the fuck are you doing you freak? Speak regular talk!"
- 06[05:45] * +Roy_Calbeck looks to Dust_Off. "Ta da."
- 06[05:45] * +Sagittis grins. "You have no idea what I'm saying do you?" He looks over to Sour_Grape. Oh, this one came with an image. "About time."
- 06[05:47] * +Slag_Heap cracks another tile by accident
- 06[05:48] * +Sour_Grape "We got side tracked..." She still has her forelegs in a death grip around Dust_Off and shows no signs of letting go
- 06[05:49] * +Slag_Heap hasn't got the top half of his armour on and has his scars and muscles on display. There's a lot of each.
- 06[05:49] * +Dust_Off nods, "We all saw had fun. There was confetti. Sorry you missed out."
- 06[05:50] * +Roy_Calbeck is grinning from ear to ear like someone told him an ex-wife just took a tumble off of Canterlot's cliffs.
- 01[05:50] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 As Dust_Off mentions confetti, she notices from the cracks in the ceiling blood dripping out and landing on the floor behind Sagittis.
- 01[05:50] <@NightmareBrony|GM> 3 Dust_Off is the only one to notice this.
- 06[05:50] * +Sagittis "Humph, well, I got some information while you were 'sidetracked', but regardless. You are here now. Lets get this job done and get out of this pit."
- 06[05:52] * +Dust_Off looks at the ceiling. "Go fuck yourself. The filly gets to blow off your genitials when we find you."
- 06[05:52] * +Roy_Calbeck sings the last verse, this time to the dripping blood:
- 06[05:52] * +Sour_Grape "And his skull. I'm gunna make it into a helmet."
- 06[05:53] * +Slag_Heap "I got dibs on his spine."
- 06[05:53] * +Slag_Heap "And legs."
- 06[05:54] * +Sagittis cocks an eyebrow. "Find? Juice's work is done, right? Why not just go?"
- [05:55] <+Roy_Calbeck> o/` For the Raven and the Kite have a healthy appetite / An' you'll never see yer soldiers any-more / The Eagle and the Crow, they are waiting, ever so / You'll never see yer soldiers any-more / Yes, the large Birds of Prey, they will carry us away / An' you'll never see yer soldiers any-more..." He lets the last note drift away, almost playfully, then gives a gesture that one
- [05:55] <+Roy_Calbeck> really needs more than a hoof to display properly.\
- 02[05:55] * Shadow ([email protected]) Quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
- 06[05:55] * +Dust_Off looks at Sagittis, "Find whatever is screwing with our
- [05:55] <+Dust_Off> minds."
- 06[05:57] * +Sagittis "I repeat, why? Leaving is easyer."
- [05:58] <+Dust_Off> "No guarantee it stops...and I'm angry."
- 06[05:58] * +Slag_Heap growls. "This isn't about getting rid of it anymore. Its personal."
- 06[05:59] * +Sour_Grape "I thought you liked bloody vengence on your enemies?'
- 01[06:00] <@NightmareBrony|GM> Many strange dark images have been seen, curdling the blood of even the cunning, wise, and keen. This ghastly mystery that they are now in, will it ever stop or just begin again? Answers to which you seek, Will come to a head and peek, on the next Star Group, Fallout Equestria!
