Re: Fallout Equestria: The Kingdom

[MrMagma]

"I dunno. A weird Stable, perhaps?"

[Guest]

"Perhaps, we could ask Quiver if they had chickens in his Stable."

[Ketchup]

Quiver tells Jayne about the situation and goes back outside.

[MrMagma]

"Maybe we could." Eve sighs sadly. "If anyone even shows up."

[Guest]

Cherry puts her hoof on Eve's shoulder"Ah'm sure some one will come. And even if they don't, ah'm sure one of us will figure a way ta get us outta here."

[MrMagma]

Eve shrugs off Cherry's hoof, and shuffles away. "I wouldn't count on it."

[Guest]

Cherry's ears fold back"Sorry...."

[MrMagma]

"Don't be. Shit happens. We all make mistakes. We either learn from them, or, ya know, fuck up." Eve looks down at the ground. "Over... and over" She sits against the fence splitting the cage. "...and over" She closes her eyes, and places a hoof on her mask, her voice growing shakier and quieter. "...again."

[Tytan]

Clock trotted over Charcoal, "Char, the others got captured. We gotta go save them."

[Guest]

"Eve?... What's wrong?"She looks at Eve

[XT Vengeance]

"Save? Clock...I'm not any good at saving ponies," Charcoal said quietly.

[Guest]

Tumble trotted up to the fence and gave Eve a concerned look.

[Tytan]

Clock looks annoyed, "What about that ghoul mare and her son?"

Clock stepped closer.

"What about that foals dad?"

Closer.

"What about those mares in the raider camp?"

She was eye to eye with him.

"What about all those mares in Ponyville?"

She presses her head against his.

"What about me?!"

[MrMagma]

"Nothing." Eve lies.

[XT Vengeance]

Charcoal shrunk away. "Clock...I always just put others at risk. All I ever do is kill other monsters like me," he said quietly, his voice wavering as he refused to look at her.

[CamoBadger]

The guard huffed and raised the prod again, but on the downswing it was caught in another talon.

"Do you mind telling me why you're electrocuting a robot?" the large griffin in striped armor asked with a stern glare. "You'll break it."

"S-sorry Boss. It was sending a transmission," the guard replied nervously.

"Oh really? And why was the transmitter not disconnected or at least broken before you brought it in here?" the griffin asked again and pulled the prod from the guard's grip. "Because that would be the smart thing to do."

"We didn't think of it."

"Hm." The griffin pondered that for a moment, then quickly zapped the guard before throwing the prod across the stadium. "Well, I hope you're up to providing a little extra security until we know if 'rescue' is on it's way for our friend here, because you're on shift with Alvina now."

The guard grumbled and stood up before flapping up to a high point on the stadium with another griffin.

The apparently leader of the slavers shook his head and looked at Crusher. "Well, get back in your cage, Slave!" he shouted and pushed the robot back at the gate, which was promptly opened by another guard.

[Aonee]

Crusher quickly trots back into the cage, and walks over to Eve and Cherry.
Octo keeps his voice down and doesn't appear. "Well, that went better than I thought it would."

[Guest]

[CHR (5+1)]She looks at Eve"Eve, ya sure ya don't wanna talk 'bout it? It might help, if not ah understand. Just know we're here for ya."

[CamoBadger]

Once the gate closed, the armored griffin looked over the cages and froze when a certain stallion caught his eye. "Well I'll be damned." He walked up to the cage and growled through the bars at Shadow. "Aren't you supposed to be dead, Boy?"

[Tytan]

"Dammit Charcoal. Why can't you see what I see when I look at you? Why can't you see the brave, kind buck I love? Why can't you pick yourself up like I know you can? Why?!" Clock throws her hooves around Charcoal and embraces him in a hug.

[Aonee]

Octo notices the what the leader is doing.
"This won't end well..."

[MrMagma]

"I don't want your damn pity. I brought all this on myself." Eve says through gritted teeth, the angry tone returning to her voice.

[Guest]

Shadow looks up at the griffin"Ah'm touched ya remembered me, Cut-Throat. It's been what two? Maybe three years since we last saw each other?"

[CamoBadger]

"Something like that. And now, here we are again, but you look different... did you lose a few pounds?" he asked sarcastically and grinned wickedly. "Or did you lose something else since we last met?"

[Guest]

"Ah try ta my best ta keep in shape, thanks fer noticin'."He says calmly, not letting his emotions get the better of him."How 'bout yerself? Ah see ya got better suit then last time, is it a gift?"

[XT Vengeance]

"Clock...you don't see what I do whenever I see my reflection. You don't see all of the ponies I have killed like I do in my dreams," Charcoal said quietly.

[CamoBadger]

"I guess you could call it that," the griffin replied calmly. "Your sister went halfsies with mom if I recall."

[Tytan]

Clock was quiet for a long moment before she asked him a quiet question, "Why did you kill them?"

[Guest]

Shadow's tendril squirm under his coat, Kill...Kill! But stopped them and kept himself calm."Thought it looked familiar. Always could tell my sister's handy work, ah trust it's lasted like she said it would?"

[XT Vengeance]

"Because I am a monster...I...I'm a failure. They...my family...my whole town...they died because of me," Charcoal whispered, trying desperately to curl up into a ball.
