Knight closed up on his target. He scanned it again. A few text went up his interface.
>Target: Assailant
>Vital signs: Negative
>Result: Terminated
>Kill code: Epsilon Abort Termination
He then snapped back to his old self again, confused on what happened.
"Umm, what just happened?" he asked the group.

"W...W-what!?!?!" he exclaimed. "I didn't do that. I ad no memory of even going full on ballistic and started killing friendlies."
He went up to the lifeless thing, lifting her hoof with his magic and letting it drop by itself.
"I... I didn't do it..."

He looked at his flank. Somehow, it was bleeding.
"Umm, someone might want to explain the bleeding at my flank?" he asked. "I don't know what happened there. I don't even feel it."

That one number flashed on Spectrum's eye lens. In one fluid motion, Spectrum stood up and projected another screen on the wall.
>Reboot complete
>Virus Detected
>Last Action Deleted
>Reverting to Natural State
After the last line of code was entered, the projection ended and Spectrum's real eye opened as well. Spectrum felt a twinge of pain and reached up to her cheek. When she pulled her hoof away, it had a few drops of blood on it. "What...just happened?" she asked.

At the sight of the fallen pony rise again, he let out a sigh of relief. But then, his program overran him again.
>Target: Conscious
>Action: Interrogate then Terminate
>Force enabled? Y/N
>Yes
His eye turned red again and he charged to the once fallen pony, trying to pin her to the wall.

Spectrum was caught by suprise by the unicorn. As he pinned her to the wall she said "What are you doing?"
#112

Clearing the dots out of her eyes, Crystal shakily stood up.
"Knight? What are you doing?" She whimpered at the raging cyborg.

Muffins snapped awake, his mind suddenly flooding with dozens of warnings. Shaking himself to his senses, he let his subconscious deal with the flood, only pausing at major chunks of information.
Core Terminate Successful.
Central Facility Offline
Facility Hull-Secondary Breached
Facility Water System Offline
Hydroponics Offline
The parasprite's eyes flickered, reading through the messages. How long had he been out? The facility wasn't in the best of conditions anymore, not to mention...
Accessing Monitoring System
Monitoring System Disabled
He gave an annoyed chirp. Well, that could be fixed.
Overriding Monitoring System
Core Maneframe Server Towers 7 through 24 Accessed
Data Uplink Online
It wasn't the best of views, through the limited number of cameras he had access to thanks to a backdoor he knew, but the story they told was enough. Parts of the facility were gone, blown apart, flooded, irradiated... The parasprite gave a chirp. Something had happened, all right.
Recovering Log Data from Towers 34 through 36
(34)Data Recovery Failed - Tower Damaged
(35)Data Recovery Failed - Tower Damaged
(36)Data Recovery Failed - Tower Not Found
Something big had happened, all right. He took a step off his pedestal, then froze, noticing a peculiar warning. That wasn't supposed to be there...
Subject Testing Facility Security Failure
Backup Systems Offline
A second quick glance at the cameras confirmed his thoughts. How had these ponies survived so long down here? Cybernetic or not, they simply couldn't- The parasprite squeaked. Of course. He wasn't the only one who had woken up, was he?
Back on the cameras, one of the ponies slammed the other against a wall. Muffins returned his gaze to the scene, taking in all the data. That would not do... He turned to the array of computers before him, squeaking a sigh.

Throughout the ordeal, Platinum had been blinded with warnings and notifications trying to prompt her onto which side to take. Had she been with either group for longer, the loyalty systems would have kicked in and sent her flying into battle. She was a long ways away, down an undiscovered hallway just outside the map according to her calculations. It was dark, light only flowing throw stripes across her robotic parts. Soft noises resonated from where she had been so she followed those. As it grew dimmer her eye switched on a light automatically. The odd thing was that her map would not render here, perhaps because there was no relative location to base it off of. Eventually external light grew brighter, and her own flicked off. When she exited she wasn't surprised to see that she hadn't emerged the same place she had entered, so she titled back her head and called for help.

A digital counter started ticking down as he neared the group of what looked like pony shaped heat signatures, "i wonder if they are like me?" he said to himself then noticed that his voice was very metalic sounding. He rounded the last corner and started trying to slow down before he ran into the group at full speed so he extended his wings tuning them up like drag chutes and started diggings his claws into the ground but the one thing he couldn't do was stop his boosters so he started skidding heading right for an what looked like a pony with a green mane and white coat. "look out he yelled" glad that his voice was amplified, suddenly his boosters sputtered out and left him still sliding at the pony but at a pace that could be considered sprinting speed.
#116
Posted 20 March 2014 - 08:36 AM
((Yeah, only way to stop him now if to find his file and say the kill code. But until that happens...))
He started speaking. But instead of his normal voice, he had a sharp metallic one.
"Why did you try to kill us?" he said, holding out his blade close to her. "ANSWER!"
#117
Posted 20 March 2014 - 12:51 PM
Spectrum was struggling to break the pony's grip. She realized that the only way to free herself would be if this pony let her go. "I can't remember attacking you! I really don't" said Spectrum. As she looked around, she thought of an idea to make the pony release her. "Th...The file! My file says it all!" said Spectrum as she looked from her file on the ground to the unicorn restraining her.

((Muffins just resetted his system in the earlier post, but oh well...))
Command Execute Failure.
Reboot not possible.
The parasprite let out an indignant chirp. What? That wasn't supposed to be able to be stopped like that... He sighed, hovering back to where the keyboards were in the control room. How old was this place to allow bugs like that to manifest anyways? The source code that ran the central servers was meant for at least 50 years, and the reactors that gave power for much, much longer.
He returned his gaze to the string of commands that were resonating through the sleeping facility. Some were relatively new, but most were ancient, so ancient the timestamps had long since been overwritten. It all just said 99 years ago now.
Reactor 17 Core Meltdown Aborted
Reactor 17 Offline
Hydroponics Control Offline
Central Dam Malfunction
Reactor 12 Offline
Central Dam Breached
He sighed, focusing on current events. The rogue subject still hadn't stopped suffocating his fellow colleague, who was apparently trying but failing to do anything at all. He brought up the control panel once more.
Sector 15 >
Defensive Systems
He ran a few simple commands, his subconscious actively following them as they raced through the facility's aged cabling.
If this didn't run...
"Sector 15." A thin, faint voice echoed through the rooms, deep under the parasprite's feet. He chirped.
As if in response, the facility's lights shut off, only to be replaced by a dim red glow.
Well, it did.
"Sector 15, defensive countermeasures have been engaged. Scheduled 3 millisecond electromagnetic wave in 10 seconds."

A small light flashed in Spectrum's electronic eye. Then 2 lines of code appeared.
>Electromagnetic pulse activated
>Assist Mode Activating
Spectrum's robotic eye then changed from green to yellow.
With lightning speed, Spectrum pushed the unicorn off of her and launched a yellow beam around all the other ponies.
As the electric wave passed through the hallway, the eletricity that would have affected the other ponies arced off of them and flew toward Spectrum. As all of the electricity zapped Spectrum, more lines of code appeared.
>Warning Massive Damage to circitry
>Repairs needed
>Shutdown Imminent
>Turning off protocals to conserve energy
>Projecting map to supply room
>Projection Failed
>Manual Data Copy Needed
>Transfer Port Opening
With that the pulse passed the ponies and Spectrum fell to the ground while several sparks moved across her robotic parts and a small USB port opened on the side of her head.

"Is everypony alright?" Sew whispered. 'That wasn't supposed to be quiet.. Oh well.' She thought.
#124
Posted 21 March 2014 - 01:41 PM
Spectrum opened her eyes. Then she did a double take...Could it be? How could it? Spectrum slowly felt the side of her face...It was skin!
"I...I'm back to normal!" she said, "Yes...YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" As Spectrum flew around enjoying her freedom from her metal parts, she looked around and saw herself in a pitch black abyss. Spectrum then stopped flying. She should have started falling, but she just remained in the same place.
Suddenly, the darkness started to break apart and she found herself in another room, like the cell that she was in, but there was the strangest creature with her. Spectrum was able to recall its name: A parasprite.
Spectrum looked around and saw that she wasn't in a cell, but a large room with a large engine from the looks of it. She then realized what she was looking at: The core of the whole base. And Spectrum guessed that the parasprite was the controller of it all.
"H...hello?" she said tentativly to the parasprite.

Back in the corridor, Crystal rushed to the side of Knight.
"Knight! Knight! Get up! Don't just lie there! Do something, Knight... Don't leave..."

He got up, his eye glowing a soft blue. He saw this Cyborg mare trying to help him.
"Umm, who are you?" he said. He then looked at his hooves, all metallic and his sight is all blue.
"What am I?"
#127
Posted 23 March 2014 - 09:07 AM
"You don't remember? The fight? Light Spectrum? You don't remember me?" Crystal looked at him pleadingly.
Please, I can't take this. Its like I've lost him... Like he's gone... Like Midnight Star...
Crystal blinked. Midnight Star? Was that the stallion in her memory? She couldn't remember anything happening to him. Then again, I can't remember much anyway. Crystal thought miserably.
#128
Posted 23 March 2014 - 09:44 AM
"I... I don't know what you're talking about miss," he said meekly. "What fight? Who's Light Spectrum? Why am I part metal know?"
He then noticed from afar a folder. He took it and saw his name with a weird intro.
"Q-105 Epsilon Straightshot Knight? I was an experiment?"
#129
Posted 23 March 2014 - 09:52 AM
"We all were. We have no idea what happened. We all just woke up in this facility, and well, here we are. There was a fight. Spectrum, one of us, went insane. Started shooting at us. I was knocked out and lost use of my leg... But Lumiere.. the white pony over there, she fixed it."
"See that pony over there? See that pony lying there? That was you. You hurt her. You went after her like the killer you were meant to be, Knight. You hurt her. And now you tell me you don't remember." Crystal was spitting out words now.
"You monster."

"I... Killed her?" he said, full of rejection and fear. "B-but I..."
He went closer to the lifeless form. He lifter her hoof, just to see it limp down. He backed away, in shock of the lifeless thing in front of him.
"But I didn't do it... I don't remember anything, Honest. How can I... wait..."
He noticed something on her metallic parts. A USB port.
"Hey, why does she have a port open there?" he asked.
#131
Posted 23 March 2014 - 10:22 AM
Crystal tuned away, shocked. What had she said? He didn't remember anything. The poor stallion looked like a kicked puppy.
Crystal dropped onto her knees, still turned away from the confused cyborg.
"Oh Celestia, I'm sorry... I shouldn't have said that. It was so, so wrong of me, Knight. Please, please forgive me..."
She was so far away, drowning in her own self-pity, that she didn't notice what Knight had said.

"No! I'm a Monster," he said in fear, rushing away from the group. "Stay away from me! I don't want to hurt anyone!"
He started cowering in a corner. All this info about him... Altered into a killing mech-pony...
"... Why am I like this...?" he said softly in his own fear.
#133
Posted 23 March 2014 - 01:29 PM
Sighing, Crystal shuffled over to the terrified pony.
"Look, I know what you're going through. We've all gone through this. None of us have any memory from about 20 minutes ago backward. None of us know who we are."
Crystal opened up her wings and flexed them, sending out her razor blades, which promptly embedded themselves in the wall.
"None of us are without some kind of weapon. But as long as we don't use the weapons in a cruel way, only in self defence, how can we be monsters? We don't have these weapons of our free will. None of us want them any more than you do. But that's okay. You know why?"
Crystal hugged the cowering stallion.
"Because we are not alone. Because we have each other."

"So, what do you think? What should we do now?"
#141
Posted 23 March 2014 - 03:53 PM
The parasprite chirped in alarm at the newcomer, spinning around to face the pony. That was unexpected. A quick run through the facility schematics confirmed it. It was a whole kilometer away, and teleportation was restricted, so-
Ah. He should have known.
The parasprite squeaked, accessing the data feeds again. The subject was hallucinating, and the pulse had thrown his consciousness into the underlying system. He could deal with that.
But first...
Facility Access
Restriction Level Maximum
Overwrite Security Protocols?

There. That would stop further breaches.

Spectrum had to shake her head a few times before she could believe it. This parasprite was talking...and she could understand it.
"What...are you? And what do you mean facility?" she said
#145
Posted 23 March 2014 - 04:09 PM
Muffins sighed. There was only so far he could go with voice clips, and the subject was asking more than he could convey.
He glanced over at the real world. The others would notice something soon.
"Facility-24 Sector 15 Subject Testing. You are Spectrum, yes?"
#146
Posted 23 March 2014 - 04:24 PM
Spectrum quickly replied "Yes...i think...I can't remember anything. What are you? No wait, how did I get here? What is here?"
Spectrum was thinking as fast as she could. She thought that the EMP caused her to come here and she had no clue when her body would reboot.
Spectrum then thought of the one thing she had thought of since the beginning, "Will we ever be able to be normal again?" she said
#147
Posted 23 March 2014 - 10:19 PM
He trotted up to the lifeless form. He looked up the USB port and looked at his metallic parts. He noticed a latch there with a USB cord attached to it.

Posted 24 March 2014 - 12:31 AM
Spectrum looked at the parasprite one last time before a voice sounded in her head. "Reboot forced..." it said.
With that Spectrum found the whole reality she was experiencing break apart as she returned to her real body. As Spectrum stood up, she couldn't help running off in a random direction. Spectrum didn't know where she was going, but she knew it had to be something important. "Guys...follow me!" she said the the other ponies before she turned a corner.

Shadow stopped 10 steps away from the scene that had just unfolded wondering if he should help or if he could help in any way. 'I should just follow along quietly behind them. I need to see if they are to be trusted ' he thought to himself and started backing up into the shadows accidentaly bumping into a sheet of metel that fell to the ground with a loud clatter causing shadow to jump 'thats weird i usually dont jump at things like that' he thought as he started backing up again hoping the other ponies didn't see him.

Spectrum flew around corners so fast she couldn't even remember the way back. Left, Right, Left, Right, they meant nothing to her. Soon however she found something different. An elevator. Spectrum pressed the button to activate the elevetor, however instead of a wait, a small red scanner opened up.
"Identification please..." It said. Spectrum didn't know what to do, so she stood their and waited. After a while, a scanning beam shot out of the scanner and Spectrum was bathed in red light. Then the scanner started speaking again.
"Warning test subject 101 free...Hacking into subject to restrain other subjects." It said.
Several wires shot out of the walls and latched onto Spectrum. Spectrum screamed as the wires electrocuted her. Several of them were able to enter her circetry. It felt as if they were attacking her sanity itself. Spectrum couldn't fight them off alone and the machiene overpowered her. The machiene connected several more wires to Spectrum and then had her backtraceto the others. This machine would contain the other subjects even if it meant killing them. With wires surrounding her body, Spectrum's form was no more than a puppet to do the machine's bidding.

He was stunned by this information. How come he can see this in this time of crisis? He did what he was told, and flick both hooves. Two very sharp blades revealed itself from his hooves. He started to charge up and attempted to free her.

Muffins flicked casually past a few more camera databanks, then froze.
Test Subject Free.
Facility Sector Defenses Engaged.
Wait a minute. Why had that triggered all of a sudden? They had been out for at least half an hour, and he was expecting himself to have to trigger it. Plus, they were having enough problems dealing with themselves-
The parasprite let out an irritated chirp. Of course. The one that took the pulse had in fact managed to overwrite some of the code, even if he himself wasn't aware of it. The location of most of the facility would be stored in his subconscious now. And that certainly wouldn't do.
Pulling up the console mentally, Muffins entered a simple string.
Subject 101 - Neural Network Terminal
Access Denied.
Gah, these things were always so unnecessarily complex.
Code Override Sequence Four-Seven-Nine_

Spectrum couldn't control her actions. Several wires detatched themseves from her body and reattatched themselves on her blaster. Spectrum turned towards Knight. Her blaster charged itself to a much higher degree. A colossal blast erupted from her plasma cannon, headed straight towards Knight. As Spectrum turned to the others, however, another program overrided the one that was controling her. One last wire shot out and connected to her USB port, while all other wires detatched themselves. As Spectrum regained control of herself, 1 line of code appeared onscreen: >Downloading Kill Code Virus.
((Anyone else typing these posts at school breaks? XD))
#159
Posted 24 March 2014 - 05:00 PM
For the first time, text scrolled down the corner of Crystal's eye. It seemed the wire that Lumiere had fixed controlled more than just her leg. It probably hadn't been positioned right in the first place.
>Relevant memory activated
Reality faded from Crystal's mind as a scene played through her head.
Fire danced through Crystal's vision. Leaping golden flames, at every angle.
"Midnight! I'm coming!"
A weak response echoed through the hall. Crystal ran as fast as she could towards the source, hoping she wouldn't trip.
There.
Midnight's coat glinted in the light of the flames. Pleading eyes looked up at her.
"Please... Save Shadow. Not me, Shadow!"
Ignoring the desperate pleas of her husband, Crystal grabbed a shard of metal and slashed him free from the wires he was tangled in.
"Come on. Lets go."
Midnight rushed out of the building, tail flapping behind him. Crystal listened carefully. A small cry just made it over the roaring flames. It was Shadow. Crystal ran on, adrenaline pumping through her veins. She had to save her only colt.
A small, vulnerable body lay there, barely breathing.
"Mummy?"
"Mummy's here darling." Crystal spoke softly to the shaking colt. "We're going to be just fine. Hold on."
She ran on, but already she was growing weary. The smoke was beginning to take its toll. Laboured breathing. Coughs racked her body. She wasn't going to make it.
Everything went dark. A falling sensation filled her body.
Then, nothing.

Spectrum quickly yanked the cord out of her head. Several lines of code then appeared.
>Download failed

>Subject expiration in 3 Days, 13 Hours, and 7 minutes
Spectrum then watched as her plasma blast dissapated from existence. As Spectrum looked over the scene, she noticed that Crystal was standing totally still.
"Are you ok?" Spectrum asked.
Spectrum lifted her hoof to touch her face and an arc of lightning flew from Crystal to her. Spectrum body froze up as she looked at Crystal statuelike form. Spectrum blinked once and found herself inside a burning building. Spectrum instinctualy ran toward the only sound she could hear: somepony running. As Spectrum neared the origin of the noise, she found Crystal carrying a colt towards a hole in the wall. Spectrum ran toward them, ignoring the screams of pain from her body as she went through the fire. She watched Crystal pass out from the smoke, but she was not going to let them be eaten by the flaming monster. Spectrum grabbed the colt and pulled Crystal out the hole. Spectrum took several breaths of clean air and sat down. As she looked around, Spectrum thought she saw a glint in the surrounding area. Spectrum quickly dashed toward the small light and found a gun barrel pointed at her body.
Spectrum froze up as the gun fired into her flesh. She tried to run, but she couldn't. She tried to hide, but she couldn't. Her breathing hurt and Spectrum guess that the bullet nicked her lung. A stalion in a black suit stepped out from behind the weapon. He walked right past Spectrum and toward Crystal and the colt. Spectrum shakily stood up. She looked at the wound in her side. Blood leaked from it. Spectrum ran as fast as she could to Crystal. The stallion turned around and fired 2 more shots into Spectrum's body. The pain was unbearable. Spectrum couldn't stand, let alone run, and she fell down to the ground. As Spectrum lie there bleeding, Spectrum watched the stallion turn back around and continue toward Crystal and her colt.

Crystal opened her eyes. What was that? She had been running... and then what? Just darkness and a feeling of despair. In that moment, she had felt utterly and truly alone.
She shook her mane. That was not going to happen again. No more sadness. No more pain. She would make sure of that.

Crystal suddenly relaxed. Everything was slightly hazy. Was that the "calming serum"? She hoped it wouldn't impair her in any other way.

Spectrum snaps back to her real body. She looks at Crystal and feels sorry for her...She at least had a family. But then Spectrum realized what she wanted to do.
She looked at the projection on the wall and said, "You sould pick no...Because i think that i found a repair room. We should check it out. Also i should tell you that the thing controling this whole place... is a parasprite! And i think it download some kind of kill code into me...but yeah repair room. Its over here." Spectrum pointed toward an elevator at the end of the hallway.

As he got closer to his target, he saw another line of codes ran on front of him.
>Subject: Controlled
>Source: Wires
>Action: Immediate
He continued to rush to her again. With a quick swipe, some of the wired were cut, releasing her w bit

Crystal cocked her head inquisitively. Kill code? They could do that to them? Just by being plugged in? Crystal shivered. She wasn't going to use any devices any time soon. Sure, she might be a able to hack them better now. But she was part machine now too.
What if they hacked her? What if they killed her? Made her brain dead?

"Freaking wires," he said. "Tried to pass a permanent kill code for shut down."
He inspected the terminal again.
"Hey, uh, Pegasus mare, What's your name again? Help me hacking this. If we're using the elevator, this needs to budge."

"Meaning?" Sew asked. Her gun retreated. She looked around. 'There's nothing I can do but watch.' Sew thought.

"Oh, you too," he said. "If we can open the door, we can go further and find a way out of here. Plus, if I can track possibly track who tried to kill her, we find a way to stop it."
He plugged in his USB and a holo-screen showed up on his leg.
"This is new," he said.

"I don't know," he said, examining the door. "It kinda looks like reinforced metal to me. What I mean to do is to see if I can bypass here so we don't get to trouble like the one before."

Helix walked from around the corner he was behind 'maybe i can help in this situation' he thought as he looked down at his claws hearing them clank on the ground as he approached the group opening up his boosters to get a running start.

He then heard something... like clanking.
"Um, did someone heard that other than me?" he asked.
#180
Posted 04 April 2014 - 03:31 PM
"I heard it too. We should probably get this door open, and quickly. Here, let me help you. Do you have anywhere I can plug a USB into in your metal?" Crystal asked Guardian, trotting over.

Posted 04 April 2014 - 11:45 PM
"Uh.." he said. He got a bit panicked when the sound got a bit louder.
"There's a port on my leg near the screen. Now hurry, we don't have much time."

Shadow started running at the door at full speed using his boosters to accelerate faster sending sparks up from the ground as he ran, and then he saw a pathway marker showing him where to jump to get the best angle for his slice. He hit the mark and leaped into the air with one hoof above his head with claws outstretched ready to bring it down on the the door.

Sew backed up. She saw Shadow and froze in fear. Sew watched as he tried to bring the door down. 'Is there something wrong with this pony?' She thought.
#184
Posted 05 April 2014 - 06:49 AM
Seeing Shadow leaping around like that, Crystal tilted her head. What was that pony thinking?
Ignoring the other pony's antics, Crystal plugged herself in, making a huge transparent screen appear in front of her eyes. Crystal got to work.

He looked back at the door. There was another Cyberpony attacking it full on, making no progress.
"It's no use, it's reinforced," he said.
He continued to hack the system.
"Hm... I think this is the power grid for the door..."
As he did a few more tinkering, he passed the firewall and the door slowly opened.
"Well, that's a start," he said.
He tried to move, but he suddenly fell down, pain surging to him. He looked at his body, and saw a huge burned area where he was hit.
"Ugh, does that look bad?" he asked the others.

Unplugging herself from Knight, she looked around. Knight was lying on the floor!
Kneeling down, she saw a huge burnt area of his skin. "Lumiere! Please, come quickly!"

Posted 05 April 2014 - 07:07 AM
"I can remember... Something... I once had a burn... I think..." She said, smiling kindly at Knight.

Posted 05 April 2014 - 07:12 AM
He twitched in pain as he was wrapped in bandage.
"Ah! I think Gauze is used there," he said. I don't know if cooling it down with water or ointment will help ease some pain."
He tried to stand up, but again falls down.
"This wound... it weakens me..."

Shadow stopped attacking the door and looked down at the injured pony wondering if he could find something like painkillers in one of the rooms he passed when he was running down the hall towards the group "Hold still for one minute" he said in his strange robotic voice then unfolded his wings and took off down the hall dropping his folder in doing so.

He looked at them. He still processed what happened earlier... or what he remembered.
"Why...?," he asked. "Why are you helping a heartless killer like me? Why let me live if I'm just a threat waiting to happen?"

"Knight. Look at her. Does she look dead to you? Because she looks alive to me. It is not, I repeat it is not your fault that some scientists messed around with our bodies, our very mentality. I cannot fathom what could make anypony do such a thing, but it is not your fault!"
"Do you want to hurt her, Knight? Tell me. Do you want to hurt her right now? Are you running at her, blades slashing?" Crystal took a deep breath.
"She showed aggression, Knight. She went insane. Tried to kill us all. Without you, we might not have survived at all. But its not her fault either." Crystal looked into Knights eyes.
"Its the ponies who put us in this Luna-forsaken place. And we are finding a way out." Crystal stamped her hoof against the ground.
#193
Posted 06 April 2014 - 07:30 AM
He suddenly hugged her, ignoring the pain.
"Thank you," he said softly. "For having faith in me."
He tried to get up again. Mustering all the strength he had, he tried to push forward.
"Ok, let's find our way out."
#194
Posted 06 April 2014 - 08:02 AM
Shadow found some painkillers and rushed back to the group handing the bottle to the injured pony who was standing up and walking now, then went to pick up his files from the ground where they had fallen and ,having retracted his claws, followed well behind the rest of the group trying to keep an eye on them.
#195
Posted 06 April 2014 - 06:45 PM
Smiling, Crystal kissed Knight on the cheek.
Suddenly, she pulled back, a shocked expression on her face. "Oh, Celestia! I am so sorry! I just don't know what got into me..." Crystal hung her head, walking slowly out the door.
#196
Posted 06 April 2014 - 07:04 PM
Sew shook her head. She walked up to Knight. "Once we get out of here we can find you something to help your wound." Sew said.
#197
Posted 06 April 2014 - 11:48 PM
As he was kissed, he blushed a bit.
"Uh... sorry... caught up in the moment."
#198
Posted 07 April 2014 - 07:34 AM
" It's fine... It was me, not you" Crystal mumbled as she carried on through the doorway.

Posted 07 April 2014 - 09:54 AM
((Gonna add action here.))
They continued on the hallway. After the next turn, the were caught by stationary turrets on the wall. They fired at Knight, hitting his haunch before he got to cover.
"Ahh," he exclaimed. "What will we do now?"
